Wei Ying didn’t expect to enter a weird… something-with-benefits-and-power-play with the captain of the Gusu basketball team. He’s not sure if it’s worth it.

“No, I.” Lan Zhan coughs. Her throat feels dry. “I am a lesbian.”
“Blegh,” Wei Ying says. “I hate being sick, Lan Zhan… my throat is so sore… why do I talk so much?”
“Stop talking then,” Lan Zhan says.
“You don’t mean that,” Wei Ying says, in his half-asleep daze. “I know you’ll never admit it, Lan Zhan, but you like it when I talk.”
“All your scones?” Eleanor scoffed. “It’s not like you made them.”
“Actually,” said Tahani, who was so tall that Eleanor had to crane her neck to look her in the eye, “I did.”
Eleanor didn’t know what to say to that. “Well—well,” she sputtered. “They’re not that great anyway!” She glanced around the table and picked up the first thing she saw. “I like this pie more!” she said, wrapping it in a napkin and shoving it into her purse just for show.
“I made those too,” Tahani said.
And the feeling is still there, except Shintarou’s now eighteen, not fourteen, and Kise’s suddenly vying to see him every day.
