Second day of the week has passed with the casualty of a normal school day for Haechan. He hopped his way out of the last class of the day and made his way to Jaemin and his lockers which were next to each other fully out of luck. He was supposed to meet with Jaemin and then go to studio for contemporary class.

He saw Jaemin by the lockers when he entered the hallway, his pink hair wasn't easy to miss after all. A smaller figure was standing by his side as well, a scene Haechan was used to seeing for years, however after the last couple of weeks he couldn't help the little lift of his eyebrows. As the girl beside Jaemin slowly turned away to walk on the opposite way Haechan arrived in front of his locker.

"We've promised that we'd go to Jeno's to study after dance so I hope you planned the date to another day" Jaemin closed the locker and leaned on it with his shoulder, turning all his body to Haechan.

"I'm very well aware but still thanks for reminding. Also just for the record, I didn't plan one" Haechan closed his locker after taking his bag out and mirrored Jaemin's posture.

"Look, I don't know what you're up to but I hope you'll not end up hurting yourself in the end. You don't have to tell us anything but we will support you no matter what, remember that" Haechan has never been fully happy with the way his friend has been carrying out "dating" scared he will end up hurting himself or any of the girls he went to dates with. However Jaemin stopping this out of nowhere didn't make much sense and he just wanted to make sure that his friend was not onto something hurtful.

Jaemin mockingly moved his eyebrows "Ooh you're worried for me, cute" but with the dull look on Haechan's face he sorted his face features to suit the serious mode either.

"I appreciate it but seriously, there is nothing to worry about. I'm tired from all the dates and I don't have excessive amount of money either, I'm still a student after all. Just gonna step down a bit and focus on my classes" He then added "You're the one who has been on my ass telling me I should stop anyways, shouldn't you be happy?"

"If you're happy with yourself and not hurting anyone on this way, including yourself, I'll be happy Jaemin. It's up to you who and how much you date" Jaemin lifted himself from the locker he's been leaning on.

"Great, now let's go before we're late to dance. Competition rehearsals might be dismissed but we still have contemporary"

Haechan was no where near satisfied with the conversation they had but he followed his pink haired friend out of the school dismissing the uneasy feeling he had in his gut. He trusted Jaemin to talk with them if needed.

Jeno lifted his head from the book he has dived it in with the sudden banging sound coming from his room door. Before he even had time to comprehend what was happening three heads he was so used to seeing have busted into the room.

"Hi Jeno! Your mom let us in and told us to tell you that, I quote 'Get his head out of the book and start studying for his upcoming exams'" Jaemin picked up from where Haechan left "Good thing we're here for that exact same reason"

The two quickly made themselves comfortable in the room, after the thousands of times they've been there. Jeno saw Renjun standing by the door, unsure of what to do. He had adapted with the friend group so well that none of them really thought about the fact that Renjun has never been to anyone's house before and neither they have been to his.

Haechan pulled Renjun from his arm next to himself on the bed, easing the slight tension out of the place.

"How was class? I kinda miss Mr.Sicheng's classes" Jeno asked his guests as he turned his chair to face towards them.
