Principles ends with Chenle and Hwara snickering about how annoying the professor is without being too loud. Afterward, Chenle and Hwara split ways, with Hwara having art next before her free time where she can get some food. She walks over to the fine arts department hall, where dance, music, and art lessons take place.
Walking into the art room, she doesn't feel anything. Maybe she's supposed to, but she doesn't.
Walking over to a spare easel with a canvas on it, she takes a seat, waiting for her professor to come in.
"Welcome to Advanced Art 1. I'm your professor, Miss Ji Kwangsoo. Today, we'll work on a short introductory project. Pick one emoticon or mix emoticons and paint using the techniques you already know. This is due next week. Get working," she says before sitting down.
Sighing, Hwara opens up her phone before scrolling through all the emojis. Then, an idea comes into her head. Sketching the mix of the two emoji's she wants to use onto the canvas, she immediately gets to work. If she gets the sketching done today, she can paint during her next classtime in art, finishing the assignment quickly.
Around an hour later, Hwara sighs before putting her canvas away and storing it in her art locker. Yes, the college is rich enough to provide lockers just for each art student.
After another thirty minutes of her just looking through her phone, the class finally ends, signaling the start of her free time.
Her phone rings with a text as she picks up her stuff.
Jisung where are you right now
Me fine arts hall im in art
Jisung wait for me there
Hwara just sighs before standing outside the art room, waiting for Jisung to show up. About two minutes later, she sees Jisung walk into the building, so she walks over to him.
Without giving her an explanation, he just tells her to follow him. So she does. They walk over to the far right of campus, an area no one is at. They both walk into the seemingly old building, but Hwara's eyes ever-so-slightly widen at the sight. All of NCT Dream sits inside the place—which really just looks like a lounge. Most of the members are playing a game on the Switch, while the others eat.
"Love, welcome to the NCT Dream hideout."

After two hours of nonstop gaming, eating, and laughing, Hwara realizes it's time for her classes again. Chenle, Jisung, and Hwara once again part ways with the rest of Dream.
"Stay safe!" Jaemin's voice rings out as they walk out of the building, causing Chenle and Hwara to chuckle.
Chenle, who now has basketball before his classes for the day are over, splits away from them and heads to the athletic department building.
