『 Don't stop the music, why are you stopping it? Dancing again, life is a party so no matter what I do, tick-tock, tick-tock. Life is still going on, it just flows. Hey DJ, play the song, the next song, it's like a music box, stop worrying.Enjoy today, even if it's for a moment, life is still going on, in any case, it flows. 』—Lyrics of NCT DREAM's song, ❝Life is still going on.❞

jungwon frowned at his books and he groaned mentally at all the equations laid out in front of him. so instead, he walked around the library to find a good book, stopped to greet wonwoo, who was cleaning up the books, for a second and continued his search for a good book. his eyes lingered on war and peace, and he took it into his grasp.

he flipped to the first page and he read quietly until some girls stopped at a desk away from him and began talking and chewing their gum loudly. jungwon was irritated and shoved his headphones on, turning on darari by treasure, a recent song he had been quite in love with for the past few days. 

❝did you know that ugly guy over there is sunoo oppa's boyfriend?❞ one of the girls suddenly says, pointing one of her delicate nails at him, still chewing her gum and sending him a nasty glance.

jungwon could feel the girls' eyes boring into his soul, but he didn't care. he tuned the girls out and softly hummed to the song while reading the book slowly until he felt someone else's presence beside him.

❝soonyoung hyung?❞ jungwon whisper yells.

a small smile escaped soonyoung's lips. ❝please give this to jihoon.❞ his voice barely above a whisper, and his voice cracked slightly, jungwon could tellsoonyoung's voice was hoarse and soonyoung had probably been crying for the past few days.

in soonyoung's hands were jihoon's favourite sweater, a huge bento box full of jihoon's favourite things and a ring.

❝why?❞ jungwon asks with a hint of concern and worry in his voice.

soonyoung sighs. ❝i think he'll need this. i'm not there to take care of him, please do that for me. i know you have your own personal life, but please.❞

jungwon smiles. ❝he misses you. i think you should go talk to him.❞

soonyoung shakes his head. ❝i overheard him today. he said he hates me. he said he wants nothing to do with me and wished for me to be dead.❞ a tear escaped his eyes that were usually filled with hope, but now only filled with his sadness.

jungwon's eyes widened. ❝he did?! i can swear to jisoos that he was still crying over you last night.❞

soonyoung didn't smile. ❝just plase, take care of him. his medications, his music, everything he needs is in there.❞

jungwon shakes his head. ❝go talk to him yourself. i promise you, it'll turn out okay.❞

soonyoung sighed again. ❝i'll try. but at least take this sweater and medications for him. he needs the sweater for night or he'll get cold. and the meds with the orange case is for when he can't sleep but only use one or two pills, while the blue one is for daily, twice a day, three pills each time. overdose of any of those pills will kill him immediately, so please watch out.❞

jungwon nods. ❝this i'll do. thanks.❞

❝i'm the one who needs to thank you. please make sure he doesn't know it's me.❞
