𝐍𝐈𝐊𝐈 set his backpack down on a table and walked to the counter with the others.
"HEE? YOU IN THERE?" jake yelled at the closed staff door behind the counter.
"yeah! one sec!" they heard a voice answer.
"what were the new flavors he mentioned?" sunghoon asked.
"oh, i don't know sunghoon! it's almost like there's not a giant sticker saying "NEW FLAVOR" on like, five different tubs!" jake answered sarcastically.
"okay, smartass." sunghoon crossed his arms and rolled his eyes, staring at the other fondly.
"alright, what do you guys want." heeseung walked out of the door and tapped something on the screen of the monitor.
"heeseung!" sunghoon grinned.
"i'll have vanilla." jay looked up at heeseung.
"just... vanilla? no toppings?" they looked at him weirdly.
"yeah."
"you're such an old man, oh my god!" niki yelled.
jay smacked him on the back of the head.
"hurry up and order, you little-"
"i'll have mom is alien!" jake interrupted.
"okay, what about you hoon?" heeseung smiled a little.
"oh, i'll have..." sunghoon looked away and towards the flavors. "coffee."
"ew. i'll have mint chocolate." niki acted disgusted towards sunghoon.
"okay. which one of you is paying?" heeseung eyed all of them.
they all turned towards jay and smiled sweetly.
"you guys are awful." jay groaned but took out his wallet and handed heeseung his card.
"agreed." the oldest commented while scooping out the different flavors.
heeseung went around the counter and pulled out a chair, sitting between jay and sunghoon. he eyed the door, watching for customers.
a few minutes later, niki abruptly stood up and grabbed his backpack.
"i have to go. see you guys later." he said while looking at his phone and throwing away the ice cream cup.
"where's he going?" jake asked.
"i don't even know." jay chuckled. "i should get going too."
"sunoo?" it was 7:58, and niki had just arrived at the library they were to meet at.
"oh, sunoo! there you are!" niki smiled and sat down next to the blonde.
"hi, niki. i hope you don't mind, i'm studying as well." sunoo's eyes formed into crescents at the younger.
"not at all. i brought my homework too. we can study together!"
"alright. did you bring my headphones?"
"yes, right here." niki brought them out of his backpack. they were neatly wired and packed.
"thank you so much! i don't know how i would've survived without these." sunoo sighed dramatically.
"no worries." niki muttered lightly afterward, "it gives me an excuse to see you."
sunoo smiled.
it was 9:13. they had been studying in the library together for over an hour now. niki made small talk, and sunoo enjoyed the company. he never studied with anyone other than jungwon, but surprisingly the younger had a date. besides, niki didn't yell at sunoo for slacking off or reading irrelevant books. sunoo liked that. it was getting dark outside, and the older could feel his eyes already drooping. this was one of his habits, staying up late studying and then falling asleep whenever he felt like it was too much. often times, when he fell asleep in the library, a working librarian would come and wake him up for closing. but now, he had someone else to wake him up.
sunoo rested his cheek on the palm of his hand. a few minutes later, his head started drooping down and his breaths became shallow.
when niki took his minutely glance at sunoo, he noticed the latter had fallen asleep and his head was about to hit the table. niki smiled softly while closing his book and standing up to take off his jacket. he draped it around sunoo's back, and hopefully effectively making him warmer. sunoo smiled lightly at the warmth unconsciously. niki was just wondering how he would get sunoo to the dorms without waking him up.
he started by packing everything sunoo was working on into his backpack and zipping it up, then slinging it over his shoulder. he could ask jay to get his bag later, but sunoo was more important now.
he wrapped the other's arms around his neck and picked him up from the chair by his thighs. niki inwardly groaned realizing he didn't know sunoo's dorm or room number. maybe he did really need jay's help now.
