jongho

it was finally saturday. i woke up a little later than usual since it was the weekend and when i finally woke up, it was close to afternoon already. i got up and took a quick shower then sat on my couch munching on some chips. i told myself i'd start on my homework after i had finished eating. and that's what i did.

i sat at my desk finishing up my homework and studying. this was basically what i did during the weekends and holidays while yeosang went out with his other friends. i was so focused on the paper sitting in front of me that i didn't notice my phone ringing. when i did notice, i picked it up and my eyes widened upon seeing the contact name. san. hesitantly, i picked it up.

"hello?" i said over the phone.

"yah nerd, i've been knocking on your door for five minutes. what're you dead?" san replied.

"o-oh sorry, i was doing my homework. i'll be there in a minute." i said.

with that, he hung up and i quickly went to open the door for him. there he stood, wearing a black turtleneck tucked in a pair of black jeans. he wore a pair of black boots and his outfit was completed with a few rings and necklaces.

"hello? earth to jongho?" he called out.

"h-huh? what? sorry.." i stuttered.

a small smirk formed on his face as he cleared his throat and started speaking.

"i was saying, do you want to go riding with me and my friends? you can bring yeosang along." he said.

"you want me to come with you?" i asked, surprised.

"yeah? we're friends aren't we?" he stared at me.

friends? we're friends? i smiled at that.

"but.. what about your injuries? are they healed?" i stared at the one or two cuts on his face.

"why do you think i'm wearing a turtleneck? besides, the cuts on my face aren't that big and i could just tell my friends i was being clumsy." he reassured me.

i nodded slowly and invited him inside and asked him to wait for me while i got ready and called for yeosang to come along. i wore a hoodie and a pair of jeans. yeah, i didn't know how to dress up. i picked up my phone and called yeosang. after a few rings, he picked up.

"hey jjong, what's up?" he said.

"hey, wanna go riding with san and his friends? he invited us." i asked.

"san and his friends invited us to go riding? jjong, we don't know how to ride let alone drive." he scolded.

"i can ride with san, and you can ride with wooyoung~" i sang that last part.

the other side of the phone was quiet before i heard a small giggle coming from him. it was obvious he developed a crush on wooyoung the moment they started talking. he didn't even have to tell me.
