Our proctor handed me the answer sheet and the questionnaire before he proceeded to distribute to the next student. ", his voice bounced back and forth on the walls of the room.

I did what I was told and confirmed that everything is complete, I reached over for my shoulder bag to grab myself a pencil so I can start answering now. When I didn't anything for the first time, my heart quickly raced and checked once again. I began digging in my shoulder bag nervously but there was no pencil in sight.

Looking around with my lips pursed together, I watched how everyone began answering the exam already. I held my head, I'm pretty sure I brought a pencil with me.

A sigh escaped my lips and looked around if someone had an extra pencil or something but was clearly avoiding to look at the person next to me. When I was already about to give up, something caught my attention that I badly needed at the moment.

There was a pencil that was just peeking out of their hoodie pocket, Y/N must have felt me staring at them because they raised up their head to look at me. I quickly looked away and pretended that I was reading the questionnaire and thankfully the proctor isn't standing in front.

I looked over my shoulder and watched the proctor distributing papers to the students behind me. I opened my mouth to say something but quickly hesitated and though thoroughly for my actions first. Without having any more choice, I gulped and cleared out my throat.

, I whispered but made sure to be audible for the both of us.

But they pretended that they didn't hear meme since they still kept on answering the exam, or maybe because they thought that I'm not talking to them. I glanced over my shoulder to make sure that the proctor is still focused on distributing papers before repeating my attempt.

I took a deep breath and reached over for their shoulder, quickly retreating my hand after done tapping their shoulder to get their attention. , I said in a hushed tone, so the proctor won't caught me talking.

They cocked their head to look at me for a brief second then back at their paper, they continued answering like nothing happened. I scoffed and turned away from them, crossing my arms over my chest while rolling my eyes at them. The nerve of this asshole to ignore me, I shouldn't have asked them in the first place.

I was about to shoot them a glare when they placed a pencil on my desk, I stared at them in shock due the act they did. I'm pretty sure their lip curved into a smile, they reached over my hand and gently squeezed it. , I heard them say.

Widening my eyes at him, , I stuttered.

They looked over their shoulder to look at me, before they looked down on the floor while shaking their head and chuckling. Once they was done laughing, they finally looked up to meet my gaze. I only stared at them confusion, not even bothered or worried that our proctor might notice us talking during exam.

Turning their whole body to me before reaching to tuck a strand of hair behind my ear, I opened my mouth and was about to say something when they already beat me to it.

, they shouted but it wasn't their voice,

My body jolted awake at the sound of someone calling out my name while repeatedly shaking my shoulder. The first thing that greeted me was Shuhua who's already on her uniform, she finally let go of my shoulder when she saw me wide awake already.

I immediately sat up straight and looked around us, I noticed that we were in our shared bedroom with a bright spotlight coming from the window. I gulped and sat there still, scanning our surroundings once again before repeatedly blinking my eyes.

She snapped her fingers in front of my face which made me flinch,

, I asked her back and ran a hand though my hair.

, she answered me before she stood up from my bed. I let out a sigh in relief while rubbing my eyes with the back of my hand, thank god it was just a dream.

Shuhua stood there with her hands on her hips, , she announced which made me widen my eyes.

I quickly jolted up from my bed and snatched my uniform in the closet, , I grumpily asked the girl. I didn't even bother to wait for her answer because I already went straight to the bathroom to wash up.

, the class president, Wang Yiren, announced. Everyone stopped whatever their doing to listen to what she's saying, , everyone immediately clapped their hands happily while cheering.

, our vice president of the class reminded everyone, the whole class became quiet once again as they waited for her to continue.

Yiren took a deep breath, , she added.

, Seungmin said.

Some held a thumbs up to his question while some raised their scientific calculators. I checked my shoulder bag to make sure I did bought my scientific calculator. I began panicking once I can't find it, sweat begun to form on my forehead when I my dream from earlier this morning crossed on my mind.

I refused to accept that it's becoming reality, so I worked hard on finding it but there really wasn't a scientific calculator in my shoulder bag. Great, what do I do now?

Helplessly watching everyone took out their scientific calculators, I facepalmed myself and shook my head at myself, ooof I can smell someone's going to fail this exam.

I buried my face even more on my palm as negative thoughts invaded my mind, Goodbye good grades. Goodbye president of the student council position. Goodbye scholarship. Goodbye life.

But wait-

I can just borrow one from someone right? I looked over at my right side, thankfully it wasn't exactly like my dream earlier in the morning. Y/N was sitting far away from me, probably they're sitting on the back or something, but I don't really care.

, I called the boy next to me.

He stopped talking with Jeno and turned to look at me, , he smiled at me.

, I asked with a puppy eyes.

Jaemin awkwardly scratched the back of his head, , he answered. I turned to look at Jeno, hoping that he have one but he only shook his head at me with a pity look.

, I reassured them and scanned around me once again.

But I doubt that I would even find one at this point, since who the fuck brings two scientific calculators during exams? Right? Maybe I left it in my locker or something, I should not lose hope now. Without wasting any more time, I stood up from my seat and exited the classroom.

I practically ran to the lockers area, praying inside my head that my scientific calculator is safe and sound in my locker while I'm on making my way there. I took a deep breath before opening my locker only to find none.

With a heavy heart, i sprinted but also lazily dragged myself back to the classroom. I sighed and entered back in the our classroom, not even bothering to look up. Only keeping my gaze on the floor as i made my way to my seat,

But I was stunned when I saw a scientific calculator resting on my desk, but it was definitely mine. I widened my gaze and stared at it, am I dreaming again?

I hesitantly took a seat still staring at the glorious scientific calculator that absolutely saved my whole life today, grinning from ear to ear I picked it up and practically hugged it. Only now I realized that it's brand, plus the newest and latest model.

My smile never left my face as I looked around, trying to figure out who's that kind and pure person that lent me their calculator. But no one seemed to even care about me because they're too busy reviewing their notes.

I was practically bouncing up and down on my seats as I caressed the scientific calculator, once Jaemin noticed me being giddy and happy, he turned to face me. , he mumbled and smiled at me.

I nodded my head at his question before leaning over to ask him a question, , I asked.

Jaemin shrugged at me, , he answered.

, I reassured him before he went back to reviewing his notes.

I literally couldn't stop myself from smiling as I admired them calculator on my hands, when my gaze suddenly met Y/N's. They were the first one to avert their gaze, I might be mistaken but I saw their face lit up and their ears were burning red. Tbh, it was one of my favorite things about them when we used to date back then.

They sat a few seats away from me, but their spot has a clear view of myself looking at the calculator with loving eyes. Since today is exam day, we were arranged by alphabetical order not by our usual seating arrangement. But I paid him no mind since I noted to myself that nothing an ruin my mood right now not even my ex.

PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME.
