The silence was filling the room, it is dark and no one is uttering a word, each one looking at the other like they've seen them for the first time. It's already the first day and we got punished. At day, the boys joked around with the accountant but it seemed like he was bad tempered and didn't stand it so he told our teachers, we got a warning. Later, Jeonghan and me entered the kitchen to make a snack but ended up ruining the microwave by putting butter in it, we got prevented from gathering together. And before we go to sleep Minghao snatched his teacher's phone to check the contacts for Seokmin but got caught immediately, our phones got confiscated.

Now we're sitting without phones because the teachers prevented us to meet and go directly to sleep but no one listened, everyone got scolded one by one. By obedience, we gathered in the room Jeonghan and I will stay at because it's the furthest one from the teachers zone.

As said, we're sitting silently and waiting not knowing for what. One after another huffing constantly. All of a sudden Wonwoo whispered in anger "Hey!"

We turned our heads to where the sound came from and asked "What's wrong" He didn't answer directly but muttered a 'what an idiot'.

"Can we please do something, this thing started to irk me"

As expected, no one understood what he really meant and thought of their situation. Only Mingyu, he giggled and leaned his head on Wonwoo's shoulder mumbling a low 'sorry' only they heard.

"The teachers don't know we're here right" The others hummed in boredom "If we want to get out, we must go one by one"

"You're telling this, what's your solution?" Jun lifted his head up.

"Can't we turn on the light, I'm getting blind soon" Seokmin got up and clicked  the button, he was about to go back to sit but turned back quickly and apologized "Sorry, I think it's better if we keep it off" He walked back and sat down properly without adding anything more. By this sight he made sure that his friends are all good with each other. Mingyu leaning on Wonwoo's shoulder with a large smile, Minghao laying and resting his head on Jun's stomach with eyes about to fall asleep and no more than shocking, Seungcheol wrapping his left hand on Jeonghan's waist.

Seokmin smiled and changed the topic quickly "Why don't we ask for help to bring the phones back?"

"Who do you think would help us after what happened-"

"Shut up Jun, say what you mean Seokmin" I love this side of him, he listens and cares about everyone, one reason why I fell in love with him.

Seokmin hesitated "Seung- isn't Seungcheol close with the leader of our football team?"

Suddenly Jeonghan turned towards me with a questionable face, too close to handle. In panic I replied to the cheerful guy "Who told you that?-" By my loud voice, I got shushed by Jeonghan as he was glaring at me. I looked away due to embarrassment and didn't give a clear answer.

Jeonghan sighed "Seokmin dear, aren't you the closest one to him? I've seen you guys together a lot" My ears opened up hurriedly to what he said, intentionally or perhaps unintentionally. I withdrew my hand from him and acted as if I fixing my clothes and sat a bit away from him. How close should I be for him to call me this. A pout will be obvious if someone looks at my face as I ignored Jeonghan who tried to ask if there is anything. To be honest, I didn't like him calling his friends by sweet words since long ago, I feel jealous.

At the same time I judged myself for doing that because I know that they're nothing more than friends, close friends, why the jealousy. Or because he doesn't see me as close enough to do that? Or maybe I'm not good enough for him to be comfortable around.
