10 cm apart ♧ jeongsung

Tonight, you and I under the covers

•••

jeongin was startled when he came back to their dorms.

he always is because of his roommate.

the dorm that he barely slepts in always have something in store for his pure innocent soul. he normally stays in with his friends or parents house, not until lately anyways, and not because he doesn't like his roommate or any kind of that reason.

his roommate is nowhere near insufferable, the experience- just didn't meet his expectations, people around hum glorified college, indeed, it is helpful after you graduate. But throughout? nothing special has happened to him yet. He's tired of that same old school, and it's sceneries that's now deeply embedded to his brain. he's been there from his childhood to his highschool and now to his college.

it's all the same.

it's a boarding school, however, it's not even tgat far away from his parents home, so what's the point even? helle, here, helle there. he could complain but he's not exactly the type to make an issue out of trivial things. he can still get a degree here or anywhere. it's not all bad.

but not good either.

for the record, his roommate this time makes all the difference. kinda? it's entertaining at most.

insert, han jisung, an unbothered gay, a very famous guy, a rapper, a celebrity of some sort that cameras follow him everywhere, a guitarist and what not. his personal life and what he ate at lunch get broadcasted for some reason.

but seeing him on dorms, which is rare by the ways, sometimes jeongin forgets that the guy is famous. there's nothing so special about him beside his talents and being messy.

the man is beyond dreamy. opposite of what he portrays out there in the limelight.  he slumps his back, he drags his feet and fluffy slippers around, he oversleeps and never sleeps at the same time. he is wrecked after every party or comes home way early in 3 a.m.

this hyung doesn't exactly hide the fact that he prances around on his jammies in the hallways at times.

still, people just loved him for being...

himself?

although jeongin supposes,  that man doesn't go out anymore, not lately. that's what startled him- seeing him early, this time again, which seldom happens. the guy is booked 24/7, part times, streams, school, parties and gigs, the guy even flies out of the town suddenly on whims.

now, jeongin worries a lot, something of rare occurence is happening, he didn't understand at first, until he had gotten a hint from the stories flying off the walls.

jeongin doesn't really care. yet he wavered as he took a peek inside the older's door.  jisung had left his room's door slightly open and the guy inside is curled properly at the dimly lit room, hugging his legs, under his fort of pillows and blankets, sleeping. his room is awfully dark, shades of pink and beige on wall is barely seen, the man's favorite color swallowed by the same darkness that is consuming him.

they almost always never met, and leave notes to communicate if one left uncleaned dishes and any other concerns, which is mostly jecause of jisung too. he has led a very hectic life. jeongin is just a passerby everytime but he actually is a witness to a lot. jisung has a very active lifestyle -a shocker- that he only sleeps and showers in the dorms, and those sleeps are even winding up at three to four in the early morning, while jeongin himself would be studying around that time during exams...
