It was the dead of the night as Secretary Ji walked into Aeri's room, the clicks of her heels against the marbled floor trailing behind her with every step she took. Knocking on the door upon entering, she looked over to her boss.

"I did as I was told, madam," she spoke.

"Did you find anything?" Choi Aeri asked, looking up from her laptop screen as she returned her secretary's gaze.

"Just the fact that his friend is called Choi Soobin, I didn't find out much afterwards since Yeonjun's safety is our priority."

"I see," she replied, deep in thought, "thank you, you may go now."

Secretary Ji left Aeri inside her bedroom as she sat there, pondering about the name she had just heard.

Choi Soobin.
Choi—

It sounded awfully familiar.

The school day ended as Yeonjun and Soobin made their way towards the library, deciding that they would be finishing the last bits of their Biology project. They took a seat near the back of the library as they took out their textbooks and laptops.

"Yeonjun, for this part of the presentation, I think we should—AH!" Soobin screamed, feeling a pair of hands grab onto his shoulders from behind as a ripple of giggles followed afterwards.

"PLEASE—YOU WERE SO LOUD— (the librarian shot him a glare)  you should've seen your face," Hueningkai chuckled, his voice getting softer at the end as the librarian turned away.

"I didn't get as much as a response from Mr Cool Prince here," Taehyun sighed, patting Yeonjun's shoulder.

"I don't get scared easily," he sighed, "what brings you two here?"

"To study, duh," the youngest replied as a matter-of-factly.

"We needed to finish our presentations too," Taehyun added, noticing their biology textbooks being laid out.

"Anyways, we're going to go sit at another table. Bye-bye!" Hueningkai waved as he and Taehyun took a table not too far from theirs.

"Was I that loud?" Soobin asked, feeling slightly flustered.

"Don't worry, you weren't," Yeonjun lied, not wanting to make the latter feel even more embarrassed.

Barely an hour has passed since they were here as Yeonjun caught Soobin occasionally letting out a few yawns or lightly tapping the side of his face to keep himself awake.

He must be tired.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Yeonjun asked.

"Huh—oh, well, it could've been better, I suppose," Soobin replied, letting out another yawn as he finished his sentence.

"Take a nap, don't worry, I'll finish up the rest," Yeonjun offered.

"You sure?"

"Mhm, besides, there isn't much left anyway."

An expression of slight hesitance formed on Soobin's face. He looked over to Yeonjun, doing his very best to complete their presentation on time. He felt guilty for making the latter do all the work, but his exhaustion was starting to get to his head as he felt the weight of his eyelids falling, his head caught in a daze.
