Months ago: a few days after Chan and Aisha confessed

HaloBishes: hey so I had a thought

DoNotTextMe: ofc you do

HaloBishes: last night, the ctrl key on my laptop's keyboard stopped functioning

HaloBishes: so I guess I can now say

HaloBishes: LAST NIGHT, I LOST CONTROL

DoNotTextMe: whaT THE HECK-

Minho giggled, and then stopped himself halfway through. Why was he laughing at such a terrible joke? What happened to his sense of humor? Why was Trump ever the president of the United States?

Ignore the last one.

But why was he overthinking it all? He laughed at terrible jokes too, right? He did remember laughing at Hyunsunglix's jokes too. So why was he questioning himself laughing at her jokes?

And then it struck him – because it was her. Wang Yiren. The girl he was confused about.

Did he like her? Did he? DID HE?

"Ayo, why are you yelling 'did he'?" Hyunjin asked, sitting two sofas away from him, "Are you threatening a ghost?"

"N-" he ceased, and then, with a smirk, he continued, "Yes, actually. I have been learning how to talk to ghosts and I see one right now."

"You're kidding."

Minho shook his head, "There's a serial killer's ghost in this room, and he's confessing how he killed his last victim before shooting himself in the head."

Hyunjin gulped, "Tell me you are kidding!"

"If that's what it'll take for you to be oblivious as heck, then yes, I'm kidding."

Hyunjin stood up in a jiffy, "Should I trust you on this?"

"Should I tell you how he skinned his victims and-" Minho couldn't even complete before Hyunjin let out a shrill scream and dashed out of the room. He laughed evilly as the younger ran away, yelling after him, "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR INTRUDING MY SCREAMING SESSION!"

Yes, that was a thing.

He then looked at his phone's screen and saw a new message pop up.

HaloBishes: I bet you laughed at that joke

DoNotTextMe: no I didn't

HaloBishes: yeah and The Lion King was a movie about monkeys

DoNotTextMe: how... what is this connection?

HaloBishes: lowkey makes sense

DoNotTextMe: no it doesn't

HaloBishes: it does

DoNotTextMe: it doesn't

HaloBishes: it makes as much sense as my feelings for you

"...HUH?"

Apparently, their hands work differently than their minds.

DoNotTextMe: it doesn't make as much sense as my feelings for you

HaloBishes: ...

DoNotTextMe: ...

HaloBishes: so we're on the same page

DoNotTextMe: I think so

HaloBishes: wait which page are we talking about again?

Minho breathed in and out, and pretending to be as carefree as ever – while his heart inwardly took backflips but shh – he typed out:

DoNotTextMe: the 'I like you' page

HaloBishes: SO I AIN'T THE ONLY ONE!!

DoNotTextMe: WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY IT SOONER?

HaloBishes: because 1) I just realized it very very recently

HaloBishes: and 2) I feel like Y/N bec I fell for an idol

DoNotTextMe: let's make this a fanfic then? And don't ask how ik about fanfics...

HaloBishes: your way of flirting is peculiar

DoNotTextMe: I wasn't flirting???

HaloBishes: then why did my heart flutter???

DoNotTextMe: ;))))

HaloBishes: OH GOD I'LL DIE BYE

(a/n: we'll get more insight into Yiren's life in the next chapter, dw dw

I know I didn't do a very good job at this, but did you like it?
