Some days passed since the two boys woke up next to each other. Everything went well, but every morning Minho woke up after having the most vivid dreams he ever had in his entire life. They always involved Jisung and him, being in a relationship. Being a married couple. Every single time. Those dreams felt so real, that Minho felt empty and cold when he woke up with nobody beside him in the morning.

After more than two weeks of couple activities the system still didn't cancel their match. It seems like they were certain about their actions.
Today Jisung and Minho were invited to visit their new apartment. They would move in after the line ceremony, which would take place in ten days.

Minho took a cold shower to force his mind back into reality. His thoughts always kept drifting back into his dreams.
Jisung and him buying a car together.
Jisung and him playing with their two very cute kittens.
Jisung and him taking a walk in a park.
Jisung and him making out in the bath tub.
Yes, Minhos dreams contained a colorful variety of everyday situations. At first Minho felt weird about dreaming these things, especially when there was skinship involved. But after a few nights he had to admit that he kinda started liking to see these scenarios after going to bed. It felt like a door opened every night, ready to show one out of a hundred possible futures.

After showering the young man changed into a warm, cozy cardigan and jeans, dried his hair and thought about skipping breakfast. But the thought of his angry best friend when he would find out that Minho didn't have proper food this morning made him change his mind.

Two hours later Jisung, Minho and a woman entered a building in a wealthy neighborhood of the city.
"You are lucky, gentlemen. This apartment has a beautiful view and windows from the floor, up to the ceiling!" The women, which worked for the system, seemed to be more excited about the new apartment than the couple that would move in there in a few days.
Jisung was a little bit sad. He was okay with moving in with his best friend, but he didn't want to leave his old apartment, especially Chan. After Changbin and Jisung moving out he would be alone again. Chan always said it would be fine, he would be fine, but Jisung still worried about the older. In addition to this he also didn't want to leave Minhos place. It was like a second home for him. And the rooftop. Their little escape from reality. He would miss these places a lot.
The lively woman stopped in front of a door on the fifth floor. "Welcome to your new home!" She opened the door for the two men and entered after them.

After showing them every room, talking about the neighborhood and all the benefits of it, the woman left the apartment, not without handing out the keys.
"Finally", Minho sighted. "I thought this would never stop. How could she talk that much without being out of breath?"
Jisung massaged his temples. "Her high pitched voice gave me headache."
Both of the boys decide to sit down on the floor in the living room. The October sun flooded the room and painted warm patterns on the boys skin.
"So... This is where we'll live?"
"I guess so."
"Minho?"
"Hm?"
"I don't want to move here."
Minho sat there cross-legged and the younger decided to lay down, placing his head in his best friends lap.
"Why you don't want to move?"
Jisung sighted while staring at the white ceiling.
"Many reasons. I don't want to leave Chan. I don't want to leave your apartment. And I don't want to leave our rooftop."
Lost in his own thoughts Minho started to caress his best friends locks, combing through them with his fingers. "Ji. You know that we can't choose. The system always chooses for us. If thy decide, we have to follow."
"Yeah, I know. It's just- ugh! It's so unfair."

After a while of silence, Minho still stroking Jisungs hair, the noice of a growling stomach brought the two boys back to reality and they decided to leave. On their way home they ordered some food to take away and buy some alcohol. Today just felt like drinking. Somehow they have to fight this uncomfortable mood that took over both of them today. Maybe some of their friends could make it today, too?

Kind of a filler chapter, don't really like it. Anyways, I have a Korean exam on Friday and I'm kinda scared:/
