Eunhyuk’s POV

I stepped out of the cafeteria and heaved in a breath of air. I walked down the corridor as I slowly thought back to what Teukie hyung said just now.

“Nobody came up with that stupid rule about not going out with people just because you’re their superior, you’re just letting your damn ego get in the way.”

Was it my ego? I seriously doubted so. So why did hyung say that? I sighed as I reached a junction in the corridor. To the left was the lab, while straight ahead was the aquariums. I checked my watch and saw that there was still half an hour before lunch break was over, so I decided that perhaps spending some time in the aquariums wouldn’t be such a bad idea. It could even help me clear my mind a bit. It’s been so long since I actually got to visit the aquariums alone and I really needed the serenity it always offered me now, to sort some things out.

Since it was still lunch break, I thought nobody would be around. I walked into the huge room and stopped right in front of a tank full of tropical fish and colourful corals. The light from the top of the tank reflected thousands of tiny sparkles all over the tank, illuminating even the darkest corners. The water glistened under the light as I watched the fish gaily swimming about in the glittering water, without a care in the world.

My sight landed on a bright orange fish with white stripes which was hiding among the corals. It seemed to be quietly observing the other fishes playing ‘tag’ instead of joining in the fun. I thought something was amiss but I didn’t think much about it. I had eyes only for that bright orange fish today. The fish stared at me for a long time giving me that familiar feeling I have got used to since three or four years ago. I stared back at the fish without batting an eyelid and slowly brought my face closer to the glass tank.

“What is wrong with me?” I asked the fish. “Why am I doing this? What are you doing to me?”

Nemo (I dubbed it on the spot) only looked back at me with its huge eyes.

“I never thought I would still fall for you even after three years. I thought it was a rash decision of mine three years ago hiring you, although I never regretted it. What kind of mumbo-jumbo did you perform on me to make me feel this way?”

Little Nemo slowly came out of hiding and swam towards me. It seemed to understand that I was talking to it. Heck, why am I even talking to a fish? I must be so messed up. I shook my head a few times and pressed my head to the tank. I closed my eyes.

“I want you. I want us. I don’t know what is wrong with my head but I just have a longing for you. I don’t even know if I’m ready for another relationship yet. I’m so confused.” I brought up a fisted hand and lightly hit the tank. Nemo scurried back to its hiding place in the coral, only peeking out after a few seconds when I didn’t do anything else.

“Every time I see you, I get this weird feeling in my stomach. My heart starts palpitating and the butterflies keep coming. I have managed to hide my feelings for so long already; why is it that
