𝘊𝘩𝘱： 7 ✩ "Interest? No, instagram!"

Heeseung POV
'I can't believe I fell for the same tactic again. Stupid people can't mind their own damn business.'
I was beyond pissed that I fell for the same trick again. The thing is that reporters have come to our school before to ask me questions about the rumours. I am not even sure how they managed to learn about those stupid lies anyway. Reporters annoy me. They get too into other people's business. Nobody even wants to know either. I am just a teenager in high school. I don't think anyone is interested in some random high school drama. But they had to make it a big deal about it including my career in it as well. I got a lot of hate once people outside of my school had heard about it. So I don't really have any socials, maybe I should get instagram again? I liked posting on there for my friends to see...

I sighed and opened my iPhone to the app store and searched up instagram clicking the 're-download' button. A lot was going through my mind after what had just happened with Taehyun and I would kill for a distraction that isn't speed skating right now. I looked back onto my phone again. I looked back at the purplish, yellowish ombre icon and clicked on it. Trying to log back into my account I couldn't so I just gave up and made a new one

'A username?.. I don't really have any ideas. Heeseung +speed skating, hmm. How abt Heeskates... Whatever it's good enough.'

Massaging my temple I muttered to myself before typing in the username. Scrolling through my camera roll I found a random pic of me and Ni-Ki and just decided to use it.

'What was Ni-Kis username again? Aghh... Nikis... Was it Nikisbisco? Whatever, let's just see.'

I typed 'Nikisbisco' into the search bar and internally cheered when I saw Ni-ki's account pop up. Swiping on to the account I clicked follow and messaged Ni-ki.

NIKISBISCO

Hey Niki

Nikisbisco: Heeseung Hyung is that u? I thought u didnt
have insta?

How did u guess???

Nikisbisco: Heeseung + skates = Heeskates
Nikisbisco: Pretty obvious
Nikisbisco: Why did u get insta again?

Idk what happened but i just missed the
feeling of posting on insta so i just redownloaded
it to clear my head a bit.

Nikisbisco: FINALLY
Nikisbisco: I have been waiting forever for u to get
                  this stupid app back
Nikisbisco:  messaging u on whatsapp was not it
Nikisbisco: Sorry !!
Nikisbisco: anyways i gtg now im w Sunoo see u

God u typed that quick but have fun dont do
Anything too extra...
Bye

...

I started to look for my other friends as well and soon stopped when I had 4 followers...

'Maybe I just need more friends... I mean I am content with Ni-Ki, Jay, Jungwon and Jake of course but, I do seem a little bit lonely.'

I sighed again and looked at my account one last time before turning off my phone.

Sunghoon POV
Again I saw Heeseung sitting alone before getting up. I wanted to shout at him and tell him to wait up but we probably weren't even that close yet so I just ran quietly behind him until I reached near him and walked past him staring at my phone.

'He looks so bothered, is he okay? Wait, why do I care so much anyway! I'm supposed to hate him. But he really seems innocent after his conversation with Taehyun... Why is he staring so hard at his phone...'

Heeseung POV

I was focused on my phone until I recognised a certain figure skater in the corner of my peripheral vision.

'Oh it's Sunghoon... I know he doesn't really like me but... Maybe I could ask him for his instagram? I mean I can try and be his friend...'

I pursed my lips and tried to calm myself before I walked near Sunghoon trying to start a conversation. I spoke.

Third person POV
"Uh... Hi!"
"Hello Heeseung can I help you?"
"Pffft why do you sound like a flight attendant?"
"A flight attendant, seriously? Not even like a cool job or something like... I don't know a barista or something?"
"I don't think either is better if i'm being honest sorry..."

Heeseung laughed looking at Sunghoon before he smiled.

"Oh yeah Sunghoon I know we are not that close and you kinda hate me,"
"I don't hate you Heeseung. But I don't particularly like you either. Don't confuse the two."

Sunghoon interrupted Heeseung holding out a finger as if he was scolding the other.

"Okay then sorry, I know you don't particularly like me, but could I have your instagram..."

Heeseung muttered quietly under his breath, slightly embarrassed. Heeseung didn't really know why he was embarrassed, he just was.

"Sorry what? Why do you want my interest?"

"Interest? No, Instagram!"

Heeseung laughed at the mistake while Sunghoon just awkwardly laughed feeling a bit silly that he misheard Heeseung that bad.

"Oh sure! Just pass me your phone and I'll type it in."

Sunghoon held out his hand as Heeseung unlocked his phone, handing it to Sunghoon. Heeseung watched as Sunghoon focused on his phone while typing in his username. Sunghoon clicked follow and gave Heeseung back his phone before opening his phone as well and following Heeseung back.

Sunghoon waved at Heeseung before he left. Heeseung looked down at his phone...

Smiling.
