XiaoJun's POV

I sat down at a table in the library, opening the book to the 31st page as I grab my pencil and paper to copy down notes. I glance at my phone that has been quiet for at least five days, but sigh when I look away.

"Hey, studying?" I heard Hendrey ask as he sat down in front of me. I look at him but back down at my books. "Is that test due tomorrow?" He asked again, trying to make conversation.

I sighed, dropping the book on the table in front of me. "You know, as much as you are trying to make conversation, you seem to be more focused on if I'm going to pass." I chuckled.

He smiled, looking at my book. "Oh, so it's a math test?" He asked, frowning at me.

"Yeah, it is." I mumbled, glancing back at my phone.

"What's wrong?" He asked, glancing at my phone right after me. I hesitated before faking a smile.

"Nothing." I smiled, balling my fist on my leg. I sighed, building up the courage to say something to him. "Hendrey, these days I've been trying to decide whether to choose you or Yang." I whispered, not making eye contact with him.

"Oh? Have you decided?" He asked, looking down at the table. I bit my lip, afraid of what I was going to say.

"I-" Before I could finish, someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around to see Lucas.

"Hey, wanna hang out?" He asked, sitting with us.

"Actually, can I pass? I really am busy with this upcoming test." I frowned, looking at Hendrey for his answer.

"Sure, might as well; I don't have anything to do anyway." He shrugged, standing from the table. I nodded, turning back towards Lucas.

"Well then, I'll see you guys later." I mumbled, glancing at Hendrey before they left.

My phone went off, showing Yang's message.

Hey, aren't you going to answer? -Yang

I frowned, slowly grabbing the phone.

Sorry, I was busy. -Me

Busy? with what? Talking to Hendrey? -Yang

I sighed, knowing I deserved that.

No, studying. I have a math test tomorrow. -Me

Ok. -Yang

I bit my nail, waiting for him to respond but he never did.

Hey, Yang? -Me

What? -Yang

I decided. -Me

Decided what? I'm confused.-Yang

I want to leave Hendrey. I decided to stay with you. -Me

Really? I'm shocked, it took this long. -Yang

What do you mean, you told me to decide. I don't understand. -Me

No, no. Don't get me wrong, I feel really happy that you decided, but did it really have to take this long for you to realize that you still loved me? I'm surprised you didn't continue to sleep around when I caught you, instead you haven't even kissed the guy since last year. Congratulations, you realized that you need me. -Yang

What? -Me

Don't worry, I'm not dissing you. I'm not going to text you back anymore, go study. -Yang

I wanted to text back but he told me not to. But, as I put the phone down on the table, I felt the pressure of breaking Hendrey's heart.

After all, he does like me.

Win's POV

I watched as Yuta sat down in front of me, obviously awkward at us eating out together. "So, what did you want to eat?" I asked, looking at the menu.

"You want some Bibimbap?" He asked, I nodded waving over the waiter.

"Could we have some Bibimbap? and two cups of water?" I asked, the guy smiled, leaving us to ourselves.

I looked back at Yuta as he stared at the table, humming to himself. "Are you awkward?" I asked. He looked up and chuckled.

"Correct grammer would be uncomfortable but no, I'm not." He smiled, looking at me in my eyes

"I know the correct gammer, don't bully me." I laughed, not noticing that we actually get along.

"I know you only invited me out because you want to stay living in my dorm." He mumbled, looking at his fingers. I slowly dropped my smile and sighed.

"Yuta, you know I can't go back there." I mumbled, watching as the food is sat on our table.

"Thank you," He smiled at the guy. "You sound like you ran away from a mental hospital, I never said that I wanted you to go back home, but you can't stay with me." He chuckled.

"I know. But, there is no where else for me to go, right now. Mark doesn't have any room and with Jungwoo there it'll be hell...And I'm only comfortable with Johnny but he isn't comfortable with having me there." I mumbled, drinking my water.

"I know, I wanted to ask you if you had a problem with just going back to China. It's easier and-"

"You want me to go back to China?" I asked, frowning at him.

"I didn't say that. I just said that it would be easier for you to aviod your people." He mumbled, eating a spoon full of sause.

"Ok, fine. I'll go back to China. Might as well, I'll just start doing online collage again. Fine, I'll leave." I sighed, looking around.

"No, I'm not forcing you to do it, it's just a suggestion." Yuta chuckled, feeling guilty.

"I know, I'm fine. I was thinking about it anyway." I smiled, looking back at him.

"Okay, don't run to Johnny about what I said!" He joked, causing us both to laugh.

Taeyong's POV

I smiled as Jaehyun continued to tease me by rejecting my kisses. "Stop!" I laughed, grabbing his neck to pull him close to me. He refuse and fight against my two hands as he grit his teeth. I sigh as I let go, crossing my arms.

"Fine, fine." He laughed, turning my head towards him and kissing me. I smiled, and kiss him again, putting my arms around his neck. He chuckled, pulling me with him as he falls off the sofa.

"Ow!" I shouted, hitting him as I sit up. He smiled, kissed me again, right after the front door opened. We quickly push away from each other, I smile as Jisung walk in with his mouth hanging open.

"Okayyy, Um..I'm just here to grab some clothes." He awkwardly smile as he slowly make his way up stairs.

Me and Jaehyun look at each other and both start to laugh. "That was awkward!" I laughed, pushing Jaehyun a little.
