I'M FINALLY DONE WITH THIS STUPID HIGHSCHOOL SHIT !!! AND I'M FREE !!!! SO I FINALLY HAVE TIME TO FINISH THIS STORY AAAAAAAAA im so sorry for making all of you wait so long omg thank you for being patient with me! but i'm finally back, so let's get this bread!

we've been getting SOOO much jaywon content lately and honestly i just love seeing them be obsessed with e/o, so more inspo for me <3\

jake had excused himself to dig for 3 cans of beer that jungwon had requested. in the meantime, jungwon had led jay to the...living room, jay presumed, and awkwardly sat next to him on the couch. he was embarrassed when he noticed jay's face scrunch up slightly as he brushed some dust (he hoped it was anyway) off of his pants. 

"i'm really sorry about this...dingy place," jungwon muttered. "i don't exactly have the means to afford a better apartment and i didn't know i'd be having a guest today. honestly i just kinda asked you to come over without really thinking because i wanted to spend more time with you and-"

"it's alright," jay smiled at jungwon's adorable rambling.  he assured that he had nothing to feel bad for. "thank you for welcoming me into your home."

jungwon blushed. "sorry about my weird roommate."

jay laughed, leaning back into the surprisingly comfortable couch. "don't worry about it, he's cool. now, about this...you wanting to spend more time with me."

"ah!" jungwon exclaimed, almost embarrassed that jay had caught onto that last bit of his ramble and asked him about it. "ah yeah i...i actually really do like-"

"did someone ask for cans of beeeeer??" sang the australian boy coming into the living room with three cans off about 6 cans affordable beer that jay had never bought in his life. he plopped onto the other cushion next to jay. jungwon felt even more embarrassed that jay had brought him to one of the most expensive restaurants in the city and here he was, hosting a little drinking party in a dirty 2 room, 1 and a half bathroom apartment. he was probably used to drinking expensive aged wine.

"thank you," jay said politely, taking the can that jake was handing to him. all three of them popped it open with a crisp, satisfying sound, and jake took the initiative to take the first gulp. 

jake made a noise of content when the beer went down his throat. he then "so, jay, you're courting my best friend?" 

jungwon coughed. he threatened to throw his can at jake. "hyung! don't be weird!"

jay found it fairly amusing though, so he chuckled. jungwon, again was extremely flustered. what a night for jake to suddenly be a lightweight. or maybe he was just always like this. after living with him for a year he still couldn't figure it out. 

"well, i'm not sure if courting's the word at the moment, but i'm definitely looking into spending more time with him," jay teased by nudging jungwon slightly, and the younger found himself almost choking for the second time in less than a couple of minutes. 

jungwon's mind lingered on the "at the moment" that jay had included. did that mean something? was he thinking of dating him? was he a potentially interested in him? did he have a chance? or was jungwon just overthinking everything as per usual?
