jeongin's pov
‘wake uuup, sleepy head!’ 

seungmin stood over me, shaking me by the shoulder. i groaned, turning onto my side and mumbled ‘5 more... minutes, seungmin.’ before falling back asleep again. i started to throw the covers over my head to block out the blinding dorm lights, but seungmin stopped me.

seungmin chuckled, ‘not so fast, jeongin! it’s time for class. you’d better wake up or i’m dumping cold ice cubes on you.’ hearing seungmin threatening me with the worst form of wake up calls, i sat up straight on my bed, brows furrowed as i let out yet another groan.

seungmin really was a frustrating roommate to have.

‘alright, you've got 10 minutes to get ready or i'm busting your naked ass into the lecture hall.’ he clicked his tongue as he finally left.

i’m seemingly spared… for now.

wait, “naked”?

i glanced down at my barely covered thighs, my face heating up. in my sleep-deprived stupor last night, i had completely disregarded the rest of my shorts and socks. this was definitely not the way i wanted my roommate to see me first thing in the morning.

allowing someone i barely know to see me in a vulnerable state?

shuddering, i stretched for my phone, which was across the bed from me. checking the time, my eyes widened — it was already 7.30 and classes start at 7.45! nearly falling out of bed, i tugged half my pants on while hopping to the bathroom to brush my teeth at the same time.

guess it was my lucky day seungmin felt like being an alarm clock...

‘yo, you ready, jeongin?’

‘yeah, just hold on a sec...’

seungmin called from the living room as i put on my new sneakers and walked out of my bedroom. he grinned and eyed me up and down, taking in my new outfit for the first day of school.

‘hey, nice pants! they suit you well, jeongin.’

‘thanks! you don’t look too shabby yourself, seungmin.’

seungmin laughed in response as he hooked an arm around my shoulders, steering the both of us towards the dormitory’s door.

‘thanks, man. i have a feeling we just might spend the whole day politely bouncing compliments back and forth if we don’t get going now!’

~~~

taking my timetable from the administration counter, i compared mine with seungmin's and realised we only had two classes together on tuesdays and thursdays. we were both in sophomore year and although i could only admire seungmin from afar last year, i had hoped i could at least spend more time in class next to seungmin this year.

seungmin must have noticed the disappointment in my eyes as i pouted; he turned me to face him, a sad smile on his face.

'hey, don't worry, we still have break times together, and i'll come see you whenever i can okay? meanwhile, you and i can always get to know more people in our own classes.'

seungmin's words reassured me, and i felt my insides turn warm at the way seungmin was suddenly caring towards me. he looked like he wanted to pull me in for a hug, but before i could even reply, he swiftly turned on his heels and walked down the hallway rushing out a 'bye!' over his shoulder.

i sighed, knowing today was going to be a long day with people i barely knew.
