"I told you he would leave again." Juyeon said while munching on the chips. The movie hasn't ended yet. Jisung pouted as he heard that.

"Our squirrel here is not a fan of horror movies, can you blame him?" Minho spoke instead, earning soft chuckles from Juyeon.

"The little squirrel could have just cling on his now boyfriend."

Jisung whipped his head towards his roommate with his eyes slightly widened.

"Your hair is messy, Sung."

Flustered, the blonde grabbed his acorn plushie and phone before running out. His friends laughed at that while Minho lightly shook his head. "We'll be going now. Changbin don't rail Felix."

"You—"

"Please, we're still here at least have pity." Hyunjae threw a disgusted look before turning back to the screen. That's when the ghost appeared and he jumped in his place, clutching Juyeon's shirt tightly. "Woah that scares me."

Minho scoffed. "Don't forget to switch off everything, Hyunjae you're in charge."

Said guy just hummed and with that Minho left. He immediately spotted Jisung waiting for him while fixing his hair. He stifled a laugh and helped him, "I'm sorry baby."

"Ah... no it's fine."

Where's that baby comes from?!

"Let's go, I'm already sleepy." he pulled Jisung's hand to his room. When they entered Minho locked the door and went to his desk but Jisung just stood in front of the door, eyes wandering around.

Suddenly a wave of sadness washed over him. He unconsciously pouted as he hug on the plushie tighter.

"Sungie?"

He didn't answer. Instead, he walked slowly to the guy's desk with his eyes not meeting him, just staring at the empty desk. Minho's stuffs were already packed in luggages and boxes since the next day they'd be returning home.

"Hyung.."

"What's wrong?"

"You won't be staying here again."

Minho's concerned look turned into a soft gaze. He pulled the guy to the bed and sat on it while Jisung still standing, puffing his cheeks with air as if he was trying to hold back his tears.

"It will be just for nine months, Sungie. And you will move to the main campus as mine too."

"One year."

"Nine months."

"You'll be staying at a different place and we won't have the same schedule. The possibilities to meet is not that high even our houses are five minutes apart—"

He was cut off when Minho took away the plushie and made him sit on his lap. Jisung's hands automatically held onto his shoulders, breath hitching at the sudden action.

Minho's gentle eyes travelled his face features. His hands held the younger's waist to keep him in place. He was sure both of them could hear each others' fast heartbeat in the deafening silence.

"Still, we can meet each other, right?" the older broke the silence, earning a small pout from the other.

The blonde nodded. "I need to find a new rant buddy."

"Just a rant buddy, not a fake boyfriend."

The pout turned into a smile before he laughed, "Of course! Why would you think like that." The brunette just smiled when seeing Jisung happy back. "Hyung, do you think we'll go on a date soon? During our break?"
