Meet the Housemates//EXO

[ F I V E ]

Thank you, Chanyeol.

[YuJin]

I stood there shocked by the sudden appearance. "Hey there. YuJin!" in front of me was a familiar face, Oh Sehun, with another guy beside him.

Flashback, back in high school.

"What?! You're so weak! Is that all you've got?!" The young man only hung his head low as the guy in front of him pushed him. The bully was about to throw a punch on Oh Sehun so he closed his eyes and waited for the feeling of a fist colliding with his pale cheek but nothing came.

He opened his eyes after a minute and saw a girl in front of him, and all the bullies were gone. How did she do that? Sehun wondered. The girl faced him and offered her hand to help him stand up. He gladly took her hand and stood up. Taking a good look of her features, he saw a slight cut on her cheek.

"Aish! You've gotten a cut on your cheek. You shouldn't have helped me. Now you're hurt. How wil-," he stopped as soon as he noticed that the girl was gone. Recalling the moment, Sehun smiled.

Back to Present

I brought out my notepad and wrote on it. "You still remember me?" I let him read it. "Of course! How can I forget my savior? Hm? Yujin?"

"That was nothing, Sehun-ssi," I wrote on my notepad. All of a sudden, he dropped his bags and hugged me. "Omo! You know my name!". . . "By the way, this is Luhan hyung, my roommate in our previous boarding house," He slightly bowed and flashed a smile at me. . . "Ehem! Forgetting someone, you two?" The three of us turned around and saw Lay.

Letting go of me, Sehun ran to Lay with Luhan trailing after him. "Lay hyung! Pfft. I'm still taller than you," Sehun boasted. "Yah! I'm your hyung, respect me!" Lay remarked and laughed with Luhan

They know each other? Well, isn't that nice? Wait, I forgot one more person. Chanyeol. I left the three first to catch up with each other and headed upstairs to check on Chanyeol. He seems quiet today. He hasn't spoken a word yet since this morning, how... strange.

Without hesitation, I opened the door to his room and saw him sleeping? Right, who wouldn't be, it's already- I forgot the time but it's in the evening. He must be tired so I decided not to disturb him and just go to my room. I sat on my chair and looked at the papers on my desk.

I organized them and hid them inside one of my cabinets before plopping down on my bed. I brought out a random book ad started to read. After a few minutes, the door creaked open so I put my book down first.

Turns out, it was only Chanyeol. I thought he was asleep? He looked quite shocked, why could that be? I patted down the side of my bed, signalling for him to sit beside me.

He shook his head so I smiled at him before reaching down and pulling the paper bag under my bed. I bought him a book earlier when I got out of the house. I noticed that he liked reading books when I saw his room yesterday. I gave it to him before he got out of my room.

After several attempts of sleeping and minutes-no-hours of tossing around, I got up and headed upstairs to the rooftop. I can't sleep again because of some... things... that are currently bothering me. It's currently ten thirty so I lied down on the hammock and looked at the night sky. It was absolutely stunning, unlike every time I head up here. Sigh, and I dozed off.

[Chanyeol]

I only went to her room to check on her. And I certainly don't know what has gotten into me. But I am thankful for that since I got a gift from her, specifically, a book. I always loved reading but my appearance says otherwise.

It's currently eleven forty-five in the evening and I can't sleep. I decided to roam around since I can't do anything else.

After a few minutes of roaming around, I decided to go to the rooftop. I once went there and saw a hammock tied onto two posts. Maybe I can sleep there! Oh, I can't, I might catch a cold or worse, fever. I guess I'll just take a peek at the night sky and then I'll go back to my room.

As I got to the rooftop, I saw someone on the hammock. I headed there and saw... YuJin? She's asleep already. How long has she been here? She might get sick, she's such a troublesome girl. I carefully carried her to her room and laid her on her bed. Only then did I notice that her eye patch was gone. Huh? Right, it fell somewhere on the way here.

I just shrugged it off and stared at her bare face. She's actually pretty even with that thing covering her face, but she was even prettier without it. I stifled a yawn. I'm so sleepy now. Don't get me wrong, she wasn't heavy at all but still, it was tiring to carry her. I lied down beside her because I couldn't help it anymore.

I'm too sleepy, tired, and weak to actually stand up and head to my room. I hope they won't misunderstand. I just had that urge to stay here in her room. Plus, I'm really sleepy so, goodnight.

.....The next day.....

"Yaaaaaaaaaaahhhh! Lay hyungggggg!!!" Whoops.
