(William was looking for a baggy t-shirt when George walked closer to him and pulled him closer from his waist, turning William to himself. William's breath hitched and his hand automatically went in defence mode. They flew to George's bare chest trying to keep a distance. But when George looked down to his hands and his smirk grew wider, William gasped and was about to pull his hands back but George pulled him more closer, hands still on his waist and he closed the distance between their bodies)
William: let- let me go.
(He stuttered. But George didn't listen. Instead his one hand got under William's shirt which caught him off guard. He pushed George away and slapped him on the face. George got shocked and William was also not in his senses. Zack's face flashing in front of his eyes of how he tried to do this with William forcefully when he wasn't ready. His eyes got teary. George was not angry but he also wasn't happy because of it. He looked at William but immediately got worried)
William: i'm- i- i'm s-s-sorry.
(He started to hyperventilate. George tried to calm him by holding his hand and rubbing it. But William immediately pulled back. Suddenly, he fell down. His tears coming out like there's no tommorow. George hugged him, rubbing his back. William kept repeating the same word)
William: sorry. Sorry. I'm sorry. I--
George: hey it's okay. You didn't do anything wrong. I'm the one who's sorry. I was wrong. You are not wrong. It's okay. Calm down.
(George kept saying it in William's ear and a few minutes later he calmed down. George broke the hug slowly but he was still holding his arms. William wiped his tears away)
William: i'm sorry i slapped you i was-
(George didn't let him complete his sentence)
George: no i'm sorry. I was just trying to tease you like i always do but this time i went too far with my jokes. I'm so sorry. It was completely your right to slap me. It's not your fault. Do you want to stay home? I can tell Wubin that you'll be on leave.
William: no i'll go. I'm fine now. Thanks a lot.
(William got up to change his clothes. He got a baggy t shirt that he was about to give George and handed it to him. George got embarrassed remembering what he did earlier and scratched the back of his neck. He took the shirt and wore it. William was going to the bathroom when George stopped him. William looked at him to listen but then he rolled his eyes)
George: don't slip in the shower. You might fall for me.
William: shut up.
(After getting ready, William and George went downstairs, only to find Mrs. Watson who was about to leave for work. Yes, they were late. She gave them a ride to university. During the ride she asked them about the reason of them being late. They told her what happened and their cheeks totally red from embarrassment. After dropping them to university, she drove away and now they were on their way to their classes. Both of them got to their classes, praying that their teachers wouldn't scold them and fortunately, their teachers were kind enough to let them sit)
Timeskip
(George messaged William that he's in the cafe. William gave a thumbs up and also told him that he's coming with James. George was waiting for them when a girl came and sat in front of him. He looked at her, narrowing his eyes in confusion because he doesn't know her. She awkwardly smiled)
Emma: oh i'm sorry, i forgot that you don't know me. I'm Emma, William's friend from his major. He actually helped me to get rid of some bullies.
George: oh hi Emma! I'm George.
(He smiled)
Emma: oh i know you. He talks a lot about you.
George: really?
Emma: yes.
(George nodded while smiling. He was talking with her when William and James came to them)
James: what's up people, we're back.
Emma: hey how was class?
William: don't ask Ems. It was boring, I'm glad i only have one last lecture left. After that, i'm free. Not stressed nor depressed, only blessed I'll roam around and--
(William was about to complete his sentence when he got a call. It was Travis. He picked up the call and got shocked)
