"Last night was fun, wasn't it?" Changbin said while making toast for everyone. "I don't remember a thing," Jisung uttered, trying to recall last night's events. "The last thing I remember was Hyunjin and Seungmin making out," Felix taunted. The two, however, were dead silent... What happened after the kiss?





























"Are you okay?" Hyunjin inquired, checking to ensure Seungmin was well. "Damn," Minho uttered, jolting them back to reality and seeing everyone's astonished expressions. Seungmin was left flustered, completely forgetting that he was still on Hyunjin's lap. "We should do that too!" Drunk Jisung jokes, slurring his words.

After that kiss, Seungmin pretended as if nothing happened, completely ignoring the fact that they had a whole make-out session in front of everyone. Other than that, the rest of the night went well. They talked, drank, and finally slept. No, they did not sleep in separate rooms; in fact, they all slept together in the living room- yes, all of them.

Hyunjin was honestly bothered that Seungmin just disregarded everything that just happened. Did he do something wrong? Did he not enjoy it as much as Hyunjin thought he did? Hyunjin didn't know, but what he knew for sure was that kiss meant nothing to Seungmin. Maybe this was just any other kiss to him, but not to Hyunjin.

which led them here- Hyunjin being all quiet, which was very unlikely of him. Hyunjin's silence was starting to concern Seungmin. Was he mad? Sad? Why was he awfully quiet? Seungmin had greeted Hyunjin this morning, but all he got in return was silence. If Hyunjin was going to ignore him, why not do it back?





























Seungmin never thought that this ignoring thing would last this long. Hyunjin still drove him home that day, but in silence. They did not chat each other for the rest of the week. By Monday, Seungmin thought that Hyunjin would at least talk to him, but no. Seungmin could simply talk to Hyunjin first, but why would he do that?

Seungmin did not even bother to send a text; Hyunjin was honestly starting to miss him, though they were literally just steps apart. He passed by Seungmin, but not a word was uttered from him. Why must this happen when he literally plans on asking him out? What a timing.





























Hyunjin was called to the principal's office on his way to class. The last time he was here, he was literally asked to clean the school court. He entered to see an unfamiliar student beside the principal. "This is Beomgyu, he is a transfer student and I'd like you to tour him around," the principal stated. Transfer student? In the middle of the school year?

"Why me? I'm literally new here." Hyunjin didn't want to sound rude, but he had a point.

"I see you lurking around the school all the time, Mr. Hwang; even during class hours. I'd assume you already know the school grounds by now." She was the principal, of course, she knew.

"I'll be glad to tour him around," Hyunjin forced out a smile.

The good thing about this is that he gets to skip his class and not get in trouble. "I'm Hyunjin, if you don't know yet." Hyunjin offered a hand.

"Beomgyu, but I'm sure you already know me." He shook Hyunjin's hand.

"I'm curious, why transfer now?" Hyunjin asked, clearly not knowing the reason. "Oh, its just family things." Beomgyu explained.

They did more chit-chatting than actual touring, but it was fine. "This is the cafeteria." Hyunjin showed the place when the bell rang, "Perfect, it's lunchtime." Beomgyu took a seat and got food. "Can you sit with me, though?" He asked. Hyunjin agreed, but at the back of his mind, he wanted to eat with Seungmin like he always does.

"Who's this new guy?" Minho came out of nowhere. "Hyung, meet Beomgyu." The three of them ate lunch together. Hyunjin has been observing the place, but Seungmin was nowhere to be found. Was he truly avoiding Hyunjin?





























"Wow, we don't talk for a couple of days, and he starts eating lunch with a random dude?" Seungmin muttered on his way out of the cafeteria. He planned on talking it out with Hyunjin, but it seems like Hyunjin found himself someone to talk to.

Seungmin was honestly offended; lunchtime was one of the few hours when they could be themselves in front of each other while enjoying good food, but now Hyunjin was doing it with someone else.

"You like art too?" Beomgyu asked since they were on the way to art class. "The transfer student can sit beside you, Mr. Hwang," the teacher uttered.

"And now he replaces me as his seatmate?" Seungmin thought since Beomgyu was now sitting in between Hyunjin and him, which he clearly did not like.

Pottery, they had to do pottery for today. Seungmin thought his day couldn't get worse, but here he is getting his hands all dirty with clay. They had to make a mug, seems easy, doesn't it? Yeah, pretty easy, actually; Seungmin just hated getting his hands dirty.
