Song quote: I Like Me Better
To be young and in love in New York City
To not know who I am but still know that I'm good, long as you're here with me
To be drunk and in love in New York City
Midnight into morning coffee, burning through the hours talking
Damn
I like me better when I'm with you, I like me better when I'm with you

Third Person's Pov:

Gray and Teddy glared daggers at each other. One of them at the bottom of the stairs, the other at the top.

Both were waiting to see who was going to charge first..

The tension between the two was quite frightening to the others on the side.. Even they didn't know what was going to happen next.

Eugene did see this calculated bullying continuing, ever since Phillip got tangled in this.

But Teddy seems to be another piece of his scheme..

It's like every day is moments away from a shit storm.

Gray Yeon's Pov:

I felt my heart beginning to pound.

Fear and rage piling inside of me as I stood at the bottom of the stairs.

Without hesitation, I dash my way up the stairs. My feet stomping loudly with each step I take up the stairs.

My fists are ready. Ready to punch him in the face.

Though, I wasn't able to swing at him.

Why wasn't I able to swing at him?

I know why. He lifted his foot and pushed me down the stairs, making me fall backwards.

Bad plan.

Thankfully that was only my imagination.

Snapping back into reality, I still felt my heart pounding in my chest.. That's one of the things that aren't my imagination.

What I'd like to do is.. Run up there right now and crush that arrogant face of his.

Tightening my grip on my bag strap, I kept glaring him down.

But, if I choose to act now, I've be at a disadvantage, both positionally and psychologically.

It's reckless to charge at an enemy that's already ready and in a position. Whether consciously or subconsciously, Teddy is aware of this, and baiting me.

It's needless for me to get wrapped up in Jin's plan, and initiate a disadvantageous fight.

The choice must be made upon hard reason exclusively, without any petty emotions considered.

Breaking away from the eye contact with Teddy, I walk back to the classroom.

Yeah, I was pissed off.

But I have to wait for the right time.

This isn't the right time.
