Jun halted in front of her apartment and exhaled, licking his lips. "Okay...I admit, you are fun."

"Told you." She winked at him and patted her thighs in silence. Alora checked the time and sighed aloud. "I really gotta get going, I still have to get the clothes out of the washing machine."

The two looked at each other and without a word they met in the middle, enveloping their lips in a sweet yet longing kiss. Alora cupped his cheek, sighing but quickly let go and opened the door. Jun blinked as he let out a breath, definitely wanting a little longer with her but he knew Alora had important things to take care of.

She closed the car door behind her and hurriedly jogged up the few stairs to the house and unlocked the door but made sure to look back. Jun was looking at her as well and waved, so she mimicked his dreamy wave and disappeared into the staircase.

Checking the notes a last time Alora sighed, laying the sheet of paper down so she couldn't see it. "First...three fingers under the lowest rib-" she peered a little onto the sheet and sighed, "fuck! It's so easy, why will it just not stick with me?!"

She opened her chat with Elgan, starting a voice message with a loud sigh. "Okay, so, studying is literally going nowhere and I'm going crazy that I need to do grocery shopping but my paycheck didn't go through yet so huh, fun! You said you were going out today? When's the date? You gotta tell me everything! I'll go yeet myself out the window in the meantime."

She put the phone down and read the last lines on the paper again, shaking her head. "I have a typo here..." the young student mumbled and corrected said mistake quickly.

Elgan texted back in no time and Alora picked up her phone, checking what her best friend said – just that it wasn't Elgan, but Jun. Her eyes widened, she must've had their chat open and forget she now texted another person regularly next to Elgan and Treasa.

Alora blushed meekly and started Jun's voice message, covering her eyes.

"Okay, last time I checked I didn't have a date but uhm, if you want a date just ask, I'm always up for that. Should I do grocery shopping for you orrr...? Like please be direct, girl."

She chuckled and quickly typed down her answer. "Omggg I'm so sorry!! This was meant for Elgan, I just had our chat open and didn't notice, just started the voice msg! and no pls don't go grocery shopping just for me, I'll do it somewhere next week, I still have lots of food, I'm being SO dramatic for nothing"

Another voice message was sent Alora's way and she pressed play, it sounded like he just got comfortable sitting down somewhere. "Our chat was open, huh? Because last time I checked I sent you a message like six hours ago...are you obsessed with me? Just say it, I won't judge you. And just send me a list of what to buy, I will go get groceries for you. You and your stubborn ass probably only have canned food and nothing more, and maybe an open pack of string cheese."
