a week later

"You good to go?" Doyoung asked, closing the boot of his car as he looked to his younger sister, two suitcases by her side.

"Yeah...grabbed all the stuff I couldn't last time" she said with a relieved sigh, hands on her hips from dragging the weight of them out of the car.

"Im gonna miss having you around loser" Doyoung pouted and she rolled her eyes

"Come on, you always do this! It's not your first time sending me off to uni" she chuckled, dropping her arms and embracing him instead comfortingly

"I know" Doyoung said with a chuckle, hugging her back

"Make sure you visit okay?" She asked and he nodded, making sure to take her up on it in the future

"Alright, see you at Christmas" she said, letting him go before walking over to her luggage, looking over her shoulder and sending him a smile before struggling up the concrete stairs.

She let out a huff as she stood out in front of her door, fishing out her keycard from her hoodie pocket before scanning it over the sensor. She took in a deep breath and pushed down against the handle, only to cock her head to the side in confusion as she met Mark and Chenle on her side of the room, fully invested in some gruesome shooting video game.

"Um...where's my bed?" She asked and the two jumped at the sound of her voice before widening their eyes, quickly exchanging a glance between each other.

"You're here?" Mark asked with wide eyes and she raised her brows

"I don't know, am I?" She asked sarcastically, dragging in her suitcases towards her side of the room which was evidently missing her bed.

"Haechan said you were leaving" Chenle said with a confused expression, pausing the game and she hummed in oblivion

"What? Why would he—seriously where is my bed?" She asked with a slight hiss, feeling the need to just sit down

"Oh uh...we kind of took it apart and uh...made a dog house" Mark said, sheepishly scratching the back of his neck

"A dog bed—why would we need a—" the sound of paws pattering against the floor made Arin turn towards the golden retriever pup who had mades its way in-between her legs and sniffed her happily

"I see." She sighed

"Arin, come here girl, oi! Ar—hey Arin" Jaemin said with a confused expression, giving up on his chase for the puppy and standing up straight to look at the girl before him

"You named it after me?" She asked with a scoff

"It's a she and Arin Junior deserves respect. Now, if you'll excuse us" Jaemin said with a huff, calling the puppy after him towards the common room and she rolled her eyes

"Okay what the fuck is going on here because I'm seriously confused" Arin said with hands on her hips

"Chenle, what do you mean Arin is ba—" Haechan let out his breath as he stood just metres away from the girl he honestly thought would never see her again—and somehow all this time he had convinced himself that it was for the better. Yet now with her right there, he knew this was it.
