Concerned. That's all Jeongin could feel as he watched Hyunjin sadly doodle on his notebook during lunch. Hyunjin looked a mess, his uniform was not in place, his hair wasn't brushed, and his eyes looked all red and swollen. Jeongin wished he had an idea to what was wrong.

"Jinnie...are you okay?" Hyunjin glanced up at Jeongin. He said nothing before looking back down at his notebook and drawing. Jeongin frowned. He handed Hyunjin some milk, hoping the other would drink some at least since he wasn't eating.  Hyunjin didn't even glance at the milk.

Neither of them realized that Jisung was walking towards them. "Hey guys! Jeongin hyunjinnie!" Jisung said in his usual cheery tone. Jeongin cringed, knowing Hyunjin was going to be sour towards him. Sad Hyunjin was so grumpy, especially when he was being bothered. Jeongin knew from experience.

"Hi Jisung..." Jeongin said nervously. Jisung smiled at him before glancing at Hyunjin. "Hyunjinnie..." Jisung furrowed his eyebrows seeing that Hyunjin was giving no response. He took in Hyunjin's distressed appearance.

"What's wrong with Hyunjin?" Jeongin shrugged when Jisung looked at him. Jisung sat next to Hyunjin. "Hyunjin...hey...bro what's wrong?" Hyunjin closed his eyes in annoyance.

Jeongin fiddled with his fingers, sensing that this was not going to end well. Jisung started shaking Hyunjin a bit. Jeongin bit his lip before deciding he wanted to give the other boy a warning. "Jisung maybe you should leave him-"

"Hyunjin! Come on buddy! Let's eat lunch together. Where's Minho? He's usually here!"

Hyunjin doesn't know where his self control went after this. "Will you shut up Han! You're ruining the peace!" Jisung jumped, not expecting the yells from Hyunjin.

Jisung only smiled, keeping his usual happy face. "Come on Jinnie don't be like this-"

"No! Fuck off would you!? I'm tired of you bothering me all the time. And who told you that you could call me Jinnie!?" The other students in the cafeteria turned to see where the shouting was coming from.

Jisung's smile disappeared. "Hyunjin-"
Hyunjin was completely outraged at this point, he had no ounce of control both from anger and sadness.

"Don't even start. You're so annoying. Try taking the hint sometimes yeah? I don't fucking like you and your constant chatter. No one does actually! So I'd appreciate it if you left me alone Han." Hyunjin was breathing heavily after saying all this.

Jisung's face was red from embarrassment, Hyunjin's from anger. Jisung frowned, feeling tears form in his eyes. He just wanted to be Hyunjin's friend.

"I-I'm sorry.." Jeongin watched with a pained expression as Jisung got up and
ran out of the cafeteria. Hyunjin huffed and went back to drawing on his notebook. Jeongin was thankful when people stopped looking over at their table.

Jeongin sighed and watched Hyunjin doodle for the rest of their lunch period.

After school that day Hyunjin walked sadly to the filming location. His whole day had been full of misery. He had to watch Doah and Minho in first period and he hated it. The fact that they were officially a couple now made it worse. Hyunjin wondered when they would tell everyone else about their relationship.

Hyunjin walked into the classroom and walked sat in the assigned desk. He didn't even bother to greet anyone. He didn't notice Jeongin's concerned looks.

"Wow you look like shit." Hyunjin looked up to see the owner of the statement, Minho. Hyunjin rolled his eyes. "I know. What do you want?" Minho chuckled.

"Why so bitter? What's up with you? I heard you had a fight with Han at lunch." Hyunjin looked at the ground. "It wasn't a fight...he was just being really annoying and I kinda yelled at him..I feel bad now I was probably too harsh."
