I know it's a dream

When I wake up a ray of light is coming in from the door, which is slightly open.
I panic as I realize that I could be late for school.
"NO! MY ALARM DIDN'T RING?" I rush outside without thinking much, but I freeze as I see that I'm in the living room.

Their living room.

I look around in disbelief and jump up and down as I realize that I came back to the dream.

"Thank you! Thank you so much!" I say at the skies.
"Oh you finally woke up!"
I turn around all excited "JISEOOOOOOK!!"
As I see him peeking from the corridor, I run to hug him.
"Hi?!" He breaks the hug and put his hands on my shoulders "Did you drink?"

I come back to myself and give him a light punch "I'm just happy to see you!"
He giggles like I said something silly "But you see me every morning!"

Seeing him every morning, living here... is not as obvious as he thinks.
I can't take everything for granted anymore.

"I'm still happy okay?" I jokingly pout.
As I turn around I see Jungsu, looking at me with a broken gaze.
My happiness blinds my eyes and I run to hug him too.
I don't feel his touch and he slowly steps back. "...Why?"
"I just want a hug!" I say, unknowingly.
"Wha...what are you talking about?" He says as his voice shakes.

My eyes get filled with sorrow as I recall what happened here the last time before waking up in my reality.

"Jungsu... I'm so sorry for speaking harsh to you yesterday. I was nervous for other reasons and-"

"Wait!" I take his hand as I see him walking away.
He looks serious as never before, I didn't think that my words would hurt him that much.

"I really didn't mean it," I whimper, "you know that I like to spend time with you."
He pauses before his eyes well up with tears and I finally feel his hug.
"Can you forgive me?" I say as I hug him tighter.
I feel him containing his little sobs.
His hug feels so reassuring, even though comforting him is my role in this moment.
"Are we okay now?" I whisper to his ear.

"Susuuuu are you still with uuus?" I pat his back as I wait for some sign of life.
I hear his giggle before he gently pulls back from the hug, my arms are still wrapped around his neck.
"We are okay..." He wipes his tears away and smirks, "...if you call me like that again."

"These boys really do like nicknames don't they?"

I look at his eyes "my Susu~"
We giggle at our embarrassing but cute moment.

"GOOD MORNING!!!"
I hear Gaon shouting his greeting in a weird tone, I turn around and I see him looking at my side.
I take off my hands from Jungsu as soon as I see Seungmin standing there.
I see his disappointed eyes for a moment, but he immediately hides his jealousy behind a faint smile.

I'm so happy to be able to see my love again in this world, but right now I can't hug him like I did with the others. I see that he has some thoughts in mind.

"Can we talk?" He softly smiles.
I follow him to his room, worried about what he's about to say,
"Yesterday I wanted to see you when I came back from the gym." he takes a breath before continuing, "but your door was locked."
I sigh, remembering that awful experience. "I know, I locked it and it got stuck-"
"But why didn't you say something?" He interrupts me with a worried look.
"I screamed and screamed but nobody answered... my phone didn't work either."
"But today it got magically unlocked right?" He says, with a sarcastic voice.
"Yes! That's what happened, it was so weird-"
"Why don't just say the truth at this point..."
I pause as I hear his words. "What do you mean?"
"I bet that you were with Jungsu tonight."
