Chapter I

The sky is bright out there. Clean blue without the slightest cloud. A beautiful day for a very special moment. Valentine's Day is a day of love for millions of people, what else if not Valentine's Day? Likewise, it is felt by boys with large bodies while looking at the circumstances outside.

Ian Howard, a boy with red hair and big stature has been wearing his uniform very neatly. A cup of tea was in his hand, a puff of white steam soared up then vanished swallowed by the air. Without blowing First, Ian immediately sipped it until it was empty. His fondness for tea is very much inversely proportional to his large body. Not infrequently people will misunderstand when they see the appearance of this red-haired young man.

Ian put the empty cup down the sink and grabbed a backpack to drape over his shoulder. There was something different today, he had to hurry to greet him as soon as possible. Before actually going out, Ian paused for a moment in front of the mirror, making sure his appearance was not messed up again. Remember, this is a very special day.

The long mirror displayed his entire sculpted body, including two different colored eyeballs. He has a red eye color for the left one, while the right one is yellow. One of the gifts that even became a double-edged sword for him. Because not many people want to approach him, or maybe because Ian isn't good at socializing.

Turning on the dorm room door, he grabbed the doorknob and turned it open. The long hallway became a barrier between the door of his room and another door right in front of him.

Ian stood for a long time in the doorway. He was busy looking at the door of the neighbor's room as if a laser beam would appear from his different-colored eyes. Or maybe he was sending telepathy because shortly after, the door was wide open. Showing a young man with a body smaller than him. His charcoal-black hair was in stark contrast to his snow-white skin.

Their views meet each other. The seconds passed as if walking as slowly as a snail. Ian loved it. The sensation when looking at the man in front of him made his heart beat uncontrollably.

And, the link of their eyes was broken when the boys of small stature smiled cheerfully so that both eyes also formed a crescent moon.

"Good morning Ian!"

"Morning Ben."

The man called Ben -Bentley Caldwell - smiled brightly and immediately took Ian's big hand. "This morning is bright." He bring Ian to walk hand in hand.

Ian nodded. He glanced at Ben, hoping for other words from the man, but Ben remained silent. This is enough to make Ian sad, even if only for a moment because Ian Is Still sure that his lover will never forget this beautiful day.

Right. Ian and Ben are lovers, even though they are both men. However, in terms of nature and physical, they are very opposite. Like winter and summer. Ben with a personality as bright as the sun is united with the icy Ian at the South Pole. Therefore, many people do not know the relationship between these boy. The same goes for Ian and Ben who still don't publish their relationship openly.

It certainly affects their daily lives. Where when they were in school, both were compact to be mediocre. There are no scenes or scenes like this one. It is only when the two are alone that they can express themselves, and express their feelings clearly.

"I just bought a lot of groceries yesterday," Ben said.

"Why didn't you tell me? I can take you."

Ben shook his head. "Nope, yesterday you were so exhausted from football practice."

"No problem, I can take you after the training."

Ben snorted. He knew that Ian would still stubbornly drive him shopping no matter what the his condition. Even Ian was very ill. The best option is not to say it. Moreover, he wanted to make a surprise. And of course the surprise will not be a surprise if it is said far in advance. Ben stopped walking, which made Ian stop as well. Ben stared intently at the red-haired man, as if Ian were strawberry pudding.

"Stop looking at me like that..." Ian, who was nervous, tried to divert his face. He couldn't look at Ben for long. Not because he was not confident, but Ian was afraid if he could not help himself and even attacked Ben. But what happened next was quite astonishing.

Ben suddenly kissed Ian on the lips.

It happened so fast that it took Ian a few seconds to realize it.

"I don't want my boyfriend to get tired."

Ian can only freeze when he gets an answer from Ben. He tried to restrain himself so that his face did not blush. Ben was really able to melt his heart. However, the little guy always trusted his when everyone thought he wasn't worth approaching. No matter what his past was, Ben stayed by his side.

A few kilometers before entering the school gates, Ian unlinks his hands with Ben. They are still walking hand in hand but with a distance created between them. The distance seemed to say that there was nothing between them.

Several times Ian caught Ben staring at him silently. Make him feel excited and eager to kiss overripe Ben's lips. It was just that, considering they were so close to the school, they had to behave cautiously.

Along the way, not a few students glanced in their direction. Or rather towards Ben.

Bentley Caldwell, who is not familiar with the nuanced man of this summer. Both students and teachers know well the man who is often called Ben. A bright Aura always enveloped him wherever he went. It always makes him the center of attention. Like a magnet, he can attract the attention of anyone who accidentally or intentionally crosses his path.

Unfortunately, it has a negative side, which is to mask Ian's existence even though it is clear that the red-haired boy is right next to him.

Before entering the classroom, they stopped in the direction of the locker to change their shoes with special shoes Used in the school. Luckily, there weren't many people in the locker room. A golden opportunity that Ben will not waste.

"Hey..."

Feeling called, Ian suddenly turned to Ben. The black-haired boy pressed two fingers to his lips and then pressed them to Ian's lips.

"Cheer up for today..." said Ben in a low voice.

Even so, Ian felt incredibly happy. He nodded and smiled before the two of them both headed to class.
