Seungmin's POV

"You were zoned out!", Hyunjin said trying to defend what he just did. I rubbed the spot he pinched as he laughed at my reaction

"Stop laughing! How would you feel... If I pinched you as well", with that I attacked him with pinches all over his arms as he laughed harder

"Quit it, Seung!", he said laughing as I started to laugh as well. Only then did we realize that his phone, along with his earphones, were on the floor

"My phone!", Hyunjin said gasping in the most dramatic way possible. He quickly crouched down to grab the phone, but instead of the phone being in his hands, someone else had grabbed it for him

We all looked up only to see this random guy. He wasn't here before, that's for sure... I looked at what he was wearing only to realize that he was wearing the same winter uniform as Hyunjin and I

"Here you go", the guy smiled brighly which matched Hyunjin's energy. While Hyunjin thanked the guy, I sat there with my furrowed eyebrows. I was confused

When did this guy get here? Did the train already stop by Station 4? Is he a new student at our school? Who is he?

Hyunjin then ttied to strike up a conversation to the mystery guy as I looked at how the guy would react to Hyunjin

"My name's Hyunjin by the way! Hwang Hyunjin", Hyunjin paused as he quickly raised his hand to point at me, "And this is Seungmin, Kim Seungmin!", the guy looked at me as I raised my hand as an act of acknowledgement

"Hello, Hyunjin and Seungmin! I'm Han Jisung, but you guys can call me Jisung", he smiled before sitting in front of Hyunjin directly

Honestly though, I couldn't blame him. If I was Jisung, I would've sat in front of Hyunjin too. Perhaps it has something to do with Hyunjin's persona? Vibe? I have no idea

"I hope you guys don't mind me joining you... I'm a new student here and I badly want friends to help through the year", Jisung said as Hyunjin and I smiled

"Feel free to join us. Most of the time, Jin and I are the only one in this car so don't worry about it.", I said as he smiled thankfully

"What station did you get on by the way?", Hyunjin asked, curiosity and confusion laced on his voice

"Oh, I got in on the 3rd Station!", Jisung smiled as Hyunjin and I looked at one another, shock and confused written all over our face as Jisung chuckled at this

"I came to the station late, around 5:19 maybe? Anyways, I arrived just on time to see you", Jisung looked at me, "Take your eyes off your wristwatch"

"I saw you enter the middle passenger car, and me desperatepy wanting a friend, followed to see if there would be other students as well", Jisung explained further

"I was shy to approach at first, but when Hyunjin's phone fell, I thought maybe it was the right time to try and talk to you guys", Jisung finished as Hyunjin and I nodded

"Well I'm glad you did!", Hyunjin said as he giggled. I guess he liked the idea of having new people add to our already built friendship

Not that I didn't like the idea, in fact I love it. I don't have to wait at the station alone as well as walking to and from Station 3 alone (Probably? Hopefully.)

"I already feel like we'll be the best of friends! I'm getting kind of sick seeing Hyunjin's face the most everyday.", I said teasing Hyunjin as he rolled his eyes

"Oh, please! You love looking at my handsome face", Hyunjin said grinning in a flirtatiousanner making me giggle and lighly but playfully push his face away

You're not wrong though...

"So Jisung! What school did you come from? And why are you transferring schools when almost half the first semester is done?", Hyunjin asked as I looked at Jisung, curiosity filling my eyes

It's not common for students to transfer when the semster had started, so why would Jisung do just that? Was there a deeper reason behind his transfer?

Was it because he had done something that resulted to him being dismissed at his old school? No, that doesn't seem possible or right...

Jisung seems genuinely nice and kind, it would really be impossible that he had done something horrible to that extent...

"Well you see-", Jisung was cut off by the familiar announcement that echoed through out the train and the platforms

"Station 4. Please be careful of the gap between the train and the platform."

The doors then opened as many people got in, this is the station when it gets a bit busy and crowded

The three of us looked at each other as we smiled, "I guess I would have to finish my sentence later", Jisung said

"Mhm, Station 5 is our stop anyway", Hyunjin said as Jisung nodded in response. Jisung then opened in his bag as he started to mind his own business

After seeing Hyunjin open his phone to scroll on Twitter, I decided to look outside the window watching the buildings quickly pass by

I then looked towards Hyunjin again only to see him already looking at me smiling, I was taken back by the sudden eye contact, but nonetheless smiled back

It was nice having this sweet comfortable silence between us. We were inseperable and nothing would change that

I decided to end our little eye contact as I looke back at the window starting to get a bit bored with just sitting and doing nothing

I then decided to close my eyes, deciding to take a quick nap, instead of looking out the window

We have 30 minutes left before we get to our destination anyways. Plus, I'm sure Hyunjin would wake me up the moment the train stops

"By the way"
