'You have reincarnated to ten years before the death of Aera.'

'Use this chance to win her love.'

Sungjin woke up in what looked like his bedroom from high school. The walls were painted grey and there was a photo frame of him and his father in a football game.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc35GENyY8n
He heard his room door open and a elderly bearded man stepped in.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfHH6X5NfA
'Sungjin, it's time to go to school.', he said. 'Today is the homecoming game, you need to take those practices during school hours.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67SjrF9pfi
'Okay.', Sungjin replied as his father, the bearded man, left his room.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCreTSicZtj
'I think I'm in Junior year, not sure though. But all that matters is loving Aera and hopefully she 'll love me too.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9eGzy6LKZ
Sungjin did his normal morning routine and when he finished putting on his clothes and grabbed his backpack, Sungjin headed downstairs where his father was waiting impatiently and looking at his clock constantly.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4d5cV5fF9q
'You never take this long to get ready. You're gonna be late for school!'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExUiIXJIA0
Sungjin followed his father as he grabbed the car keys and headed out the door towards the car. He opened the car and he and Sungjin went inside. He started the car and after a few seconds, pressed the brake and started driving to his school.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXcfvese3H
While he was driving, his father constantly asked him what he was feeling about the game.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9mHc5CR3S
'You better play perfectly on that field, or else, you know. Our reputation matters here and I'm not about to be ridiculed by your poor playing.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2OtOJmMPv
Sungjin only looked at the road as his father continued ranting on and on until they reached Sungjin's school.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxee92UR3zO
Silver Creek Academy. The school where boys were 'superior' and girls were 'damsels in distress'. There were many people heading inside the school as it was almost time for first period to start. Sungjin's father parked near the school and Sungjin began unbuckling his seatbelt and opening the car door.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMhB7mqKJG
'I expect a straight-A report card. Don't disappoint me, Sungjin.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXaeSMTjFZ
'Okay, Father.', Sungjin nodded and got out of the car and closed the car door behind him.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sVsXMHopm
He held a breath for a minute and then let go. This felt so new to him, maybe because he has to relive those ten miserable years. He started walking towards the entrance of the school gate when he recognized two people from his past.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPiE5vzRhq
Dong-Guen Lim, a high school jock and the wide receiver of the high school football team.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxTFILl9Mc
Jeong-Ho Pak, also a jock and the offensive guard of the football team.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMATonjslT
They spotted Sungjin and walked towards him.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pJkqDKZOZ
'Yo, Sungjin, there you are bro!', Dong-Guen said.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4QFab3LnF
'Yeah, what took you so long man?' 'We didn't have time to flirt with girls.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCxT7aEmmd
Sungjin went as red as a tomato. So high school boys behaved this way? Typical..
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggrkdOFuED
'Sorry, I was running late, that's all.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbuNNy3ji2
Dong-Guen and Jeong-Ho glanced unamused faces at him, but calmed down.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWxsW8QOSV
'We still have time to harass a girl, that is if you don't chicken out, Sungjin.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQXeNJEAZB
Sungjin jumped in surprise when Jeong-Ho elbowed him. 'Fine, I won't chicken out!!'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBErD7kR3O
The school bell rang and the people had 5 minutes to get to class. Sungjin and his friends went separate ways, and Sungjin headed towards his first class.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL5zP5lVt2
Now all he had to do was go to class and hope that Aera was in his class. Speaking of Aera, Sungjin spotted her among the other girls in the locker area.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoWJgvReaz
He decided to go talk to her after school right before the game starts.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PoimOwsMY
But for now he would go to class and try to go through it.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj07mhQwzOp
He arrived at his class, Improv, and sat down at one of the chairs.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XI2tLsYQN
His teacher just completely ignored him, unaware that he wasn't the Sungjin he used to be.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur3MYPZy0o
A girl stepped into the room and Sungjin recognized her as Aera almost right away.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiIlfuuzYm
'Welcome, Aera.' 'You can sit next to Sungjin as we wait for the other students to arrive.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CvlIYSkDo
Aera nodded and sat down at the desk next to mine. Soon, the other students rushed into the classroom.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvb8mUf4Fz
'Hello teacher.', a young redhead said while looking at her makeup mirror and applying red lipstick, sitting on one of the front desks near the teacher.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qynITcLQk
'Hello class, as you all know tonight is Homecoming night. There will be a game along with a Homecoming dance. So I encourage you all to attend. But this is not will we be doing today.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv7WdxsPSw
'Today, I am going to hand out the roles of Romeo and Juliet.' The teacher went to her desk cabinet and took out the slips of paper. She closed the cabinet and handed out the slips of paper, one by one. She reached Sungjin's desk and gave him a slip of paper.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4URJ1VgnE
Sungjin looked at the paper and it was read that he would play Romeo. The teacher continued handing out the papers, row by row until she reached Aera.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMJvHdRwyY
She gave her the slip of paper and it read that Aera is going to play Juliet. Sungjin peeked at her slip of paper she was holding in her hands.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxcEw7Iibp
She's going to play Juliet, this is my chance to confess to her!
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYHIk6G7Dv
'We will use the rest of the class hour preparing for our roles. Students who are playing Romeo and Juliet, please stand up!'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iNT9wVm3L
Sungjin and Aera stood up, but the class was praising for Sungjin and criticizing Aera.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPvrEJzhxY
'Sungjin fits the role perfectly!', a girl with bangs said in awe. 'Don't you think, Cho-Hee?'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFMLWB3zX3
'Ms.Lim, there must be something wrong with the slips of paper! I was supposed to be Juliet, not her!', the redhead named Cho-Hee yelled. 'It's not fair!'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVWwawsMUv
'It's perfectly fair, I chose Aera because she showed such excellence in her draft performances.'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBVJHAvMlN
Cho-Hee grunted and sat down angrily. Her friends, Soo-jin and Ji-woo comforted her but she pushed them away from her in disgust.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8uq6y2qA8
'Sungjin is so charming right now! I bet when he plays Romeo, he'll be even more charming!', Ji-woo squealed.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWWFo88fRu
Soon after, the bell rang and everyone left the classroom in a flurry of papers and pens, leaving Sungjin and Aera standing awkwardly.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qKQECIj0Z
'What are you waiting for?' 'Go to your next class already!!', Ms.Lim said, irritated. Sungjin grabbed his backpack and left the room while secretly waiting for Aera near the classroom. He saw Aera leaving the classroom and decided to follow her to her next class.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2feZWDV6x
He saw her go into a choir room and he was about to head towards his next class when he heard a couple of girls yelling in the choir room.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeggF5GJnA
"You don't deserve your position, nasty girl!'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U15IMfzCn
Aera was on the ground, tears slipping onto her cheeks as she tried to get up, only to be pushed down on the chair.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTss4rniiU
She cried so hard she almost lost her voice.
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx4G9Xa47s
'Why?'
367Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zl22IMdoN
A/N: If they only knew fate was gonna bring them though.
