Yunho groaned as he got up from the bed. He turned off his alarm. He normally didn't have to wake up this early on Fridays but today he had a class field trip. He began to wash up and get ready. They were going to some sort of museum. Yunho wasn't sure. He didn't pay that much attention in class. His teacher told them that car pulling would be best. But he didn't know anyone in the class except Mingi, so he supposed he had to drive himself. Which he wasn't very excited about.

Yunho took a quick shower and began to brush his teeth. Suddenly he saw his phone screen light up. It was a text message. He opened his phone seeing it was from Mingi. He wasn't surprised that it was Mingi, but he was surprised by what he said.

"Hey you have a ride? Cause you can ride with me if not." It read.

Yunho was a little confused. After his conversation with San, Yunho realized how much of an asshole he was to Mingi. So he had been nicer to Mingi lately which made the tension between them lighten up. But it still seemed out of the blue for Mingi to ask. Everything in him wanted to just shut Mingi down like always. But he didn't. He decided to suck it up and be nice. Since Mingi was being nice to offer. Even if it was weird to be with his ex. He didn't wanna drive anyways.

"Did- did he just say yes?" Mingi said in shock. "Hongjoong!"

"Shut up it's way too early." Hongjoong groaned putting a pillow over his head.

"Yunho said yes. Maybe he doesn't hate me as much as I thought." Mingi said scratching his head.

"Mingi, you said you'd get ready quietly in the morning." Hongjoong whined.

"I did but this is my exception. Yunho wants to ride with me." Mingi explained.

"Fucking simp." Hongjoong cursed.

-

Yunho finished getting ready and went to the parking lot where they said they'd meet. Mingi's car was parked there. When Yunho walked up Mingi got out the car.

"Good morning, I was surprised you wanted to ride with me." Mingi said laughing a little awkwardly.

"I was surprised you asked. But I'm glad you did. I didn't want to drive." Yunho said back with a smile.

Mingi opened the passager door for Yunho to get in. Yunho rolled his eyes. Mingi was always such a gentleman to him. Normally it was attractive, but now Yunho was a little annoyed by it. It seemed like Mingi was trying a little too hard. "Thank you." He thanked him anyways and got in the car.

Minghao, hongjoong and seonghwa were meeting for their project. It was due that next week so they were all sort of rushing. But of course minghao wasn't able to come that day so it was just hongjoong and seonghwa. Hongjoong insisted that they just not meet at all, but seonghwa wanted to meet, so hongjoong expected an earful.

Hongjoong got to the library and saw seonghwa was in one of the study rooms. He walked in.

"Hey." Hongjoong said plainly and put is bag down on a chair.

"Hey, how are you?" Seonghwa greeted.

"Could be better but here we are." Hongjoong opened his laptop and sketch book. "Okay let's get started then."

Seonghwa rolled his eyes. He knew why Hongjoong was so irritated though. And he was about to make things worse. Sure Hongjoong doesn't want to talk about their fight, but seonghwa had to at least apologize. He had a lot of time to think about what happened and wanted to apologize honestly.

They both worked on their individual parts of the presentation quietly. Seonghwa of course wanted to bring up the elephant in the room. But he wasn't sure how to.
