The moment Hazel entered her dorm room, she could see her roommates' eyes looking at him. Noticing the strange smile on their faces, Hazel immediately figured out what happened.

They knew!

Her head felt a little dizzy as blood rushed to her head. Meeting her roommates' gaze, Hazel was feeling a little shy.

"Alright. Alright. Stop teasing her," Crystal said as she blocked Hazel from the other's view. Then, she turned around and started to examine Hazel's lips closer. 

Hazel instinctively bit at her lips. She knew very well that her lips were swollen after that kiss and she was embarrassed to let them see her lips after she had kissed Alex for a long time.

"You don't need to hide," Crystal said. "We all an adult here. We could guess at what happened by looking at your reddened face, Hazel."

Hazel raised both hands and touched her face. Although she has been spending a long time outside, her face was too hot. Hazel could almost imagine the look on her face at this moment.

"Anyway," Michelle spoke. She stood up from her seat and smiled. "We saw what happened."

"You saw?" Hazel wished to dig a hole and hide. This was too embarrassing.

Michelle started to laugh. "You spent a long time downstairs and Eira was worried. She went down out of the concern and saw what was going on. Once she returned and tell us what she saw, we had to spy on you from the balcony. But don't worry. It was very dark and we cannot see too well."

Hazel watched her friends speechlessly. She almost could not believe that they would be spying on her.

"Hazel..." Eira went over and latched into her arms. "Tell me. How does it feel to kiss him?"

"Is he good?" Michelle started to ask.

Hazel narrowed her eyes dangerously at her roommates. "I'm not talking to you girls."

The girls began to laugh.

She decided to ignore their teasing and walked into the room. She put her bag on the table and caught a glimpse of her face in the mirror. Seeing her appearance in the mirror, Hazel let out a gasp.

Her lips were too swollen! Just how much force did Alex use to kiss her? Suddenly, Hazel was embarrassed to go out and meet people. If the swelling did not go down by tomorrow morning, she might as well consider skipping class!

However, once she recalled the upcoming tests, Hazel knew that there was no way that she can skip her class.

"Don't get mad," Michelle said. She patted Hazel on her shoulder and smiled apologetically. "You always had a serious look on your face. It was rare to see that shy look on your face. Just one look on your face, we can see how much in love you are with Alex."

"Uh-huh," Crystal agreed. "Ever since you started to date, we've been seeing this look on your face a lot. I think... you are really happy dating Alex."

"You can see them on my face?" Hazel asked.

"You might not realize this, but after you started to go steady with Alex, you've been smiling a lot," Crystal said. "You are glowing. You have this look that screamed: 'I'm in love' on your face."

Hazel shook her head as she thought that Crystal was teasing her. Hazel glanced at the mirror again. Her reflection showed her an image of a girl with a reddened face and a shy smile on her face. She looked closely and realized that there was something different on her face. However, Hazel could not pinpoint what they were.

"It's nice to be in love," Eira said with a sigh. "Maybe I should start thinking about dating as well." 

Hazel turned to her friend and her lips started to twitch. "Are you sure you can think about dating? The moment any boys tried to approach you, your brother would appear and stop them."

Eira laughed as she tried to imagine her little brother's appearance out of nowhere to stop her from dating. However, this was not impossible. Her little brother might be a few years younger, but he was a little overprotective.

Hazel took her pajamas and went into the bathroom to take a shower. When she came out again, her friends were already sprawling in their bed, doing their own things, and getting ready for bed. Hazel took her phone and saw that Alex had texted her that he had safely arrived at his apartment.

After thinking for a while, Hazel decided to send him a text.

"My lips are swollen. I have no face to meet people."

"I'm sorry." Alex's reply came back a few seconds later. "This is my fault. Next time, I will let you bite me back."

Hazel gritted her teeth when she saw his reply. "Who wants to bite you?"

She put down her phone on the table as she was too lazy to talk to him. After a minute has passed, her phone buzzed again and this time, it was a phone call from Alex.

"Are you angry?" Alex asked as soon as the phone was connected. His voice sounded a little deep as he was speaking in a low tone.

Hearing his warm voice, her anger had dissipated. Hazel walked over to the balcony to hide from her roommates. She looked at the scenery outside and answered, "Not angry." 

"If it makes you feel a little better, my lips are swollen too," Alex said. "I still have to go to the office tomorrow."

"Then don't go to your office."

A chuckle escaped him. "Would you want to accompany me then? You can skip your class and I can skip work. Then, let's go on a date."

"Alex He… are you trying to be a bad influence on me?" Her lips curled into a small smile. 

"Well, I just missed you."

Her heart jumped and Hazel lowered her head upon hearing his words. "We just saw each other a while ago."

"I know. But as soon as we apart, I wanted to see you again." He took a deep breath as he recalled pulling the girl into his arms. "It would be good if I can have you by my side all the time."

The corner of her lips tilted up. "I really did not think that you could be such a sweet-talker."

"Mmm... I ate something sweet earlier."

Hazel did not think too much about it and asked, "What did you eat?"

"Your lips."

Her face felt hot again. "I'm not talking to you anymore. Alex He, I'm hanging up."

Alex laughed on the other line. Recently, he began to have this habit to tease Hazel.  Her reddened face gave him an urge to bite at her cheek. "Alright. I won't tease you anymore.. Just go to bed early. Tomorrow, I'll come to you and deliver your breakfast, alright?"
