Meant To Be, Or Not? - [YEONGYU FF]

Chapter 17

🎶: 'Way Home' by TXT

Beomgyu returned to his university a week and a half after his pneumonia passed, as the doctors advised him to get enough rest to get back to full strength.

Hanbin and Zhanghao decided to play bodyguard for their friend as they walked into the building, pushing away at least two dozen obsessive fangirls so Beomgyu wouldn't be overwhelmed.

Which he of course appreciated from them.

Beomgyu headed to class, getting everything that he needed to catch up on from all of my professors (a painfully tall pile of books), and even got an offer to have a tutor hired for free to help him with everything he missed, which the red haired gracefully accepted.

To everyone in his major's relief, their last class was canceled for the day, so Beomgyu took that opportunity to head to the uni library, and meet his tutor, a substitute teacher named Kim Jisoo. She helped the latter catch up with most of his subjects, and praised him for being able to understand everything quickly.

Well, there's a reason why Beomgyu was among the top students in his major. Not only was he good looking, organized as he was able to balance his modeling and uni life, he was also quite smart, and information came easily to him.

By the time the bell rang, Beomgyu was in fact caught up on most things, so Mrs Kim told him he could still come back tomorrow in case of anything, and being the polite man he is, Beomgyu thanked her gracefully.

"So, how was your first day back?" Brian asked cheerfully.

He had waited outside of his car for Beomgyu, and gave him a nice warm hug when he saw the red haired model coming out of the university.

"It went alright. But..."

"But what?"

"I definitely don't wanna miss out so much from school again," Beomgyu laughed.

Brian laughed in return.

"Okay. Well, let me bring you back to your apartment."

The red haired was about to say yes, when he saw Yeonjun exiting the campus, checking his phone.

He looked a little tired, and in need of being cheered up.

How could Beomgyu tell?

Well, in the last few days, things have... changed a little between the two?

They weren't fighting as much as they used to, so Beomgyu certainly had less headaches that developed into migraines by midnight.

Yeonjun even cooked breakfast for him this morning, preparing him an omelet with ingredients of his choice.

Hmmm......

Beomgyu even from a distance could see the way Yeonjun's eyes were softening, a sign he was on the brink of tears.

Guess he really didn't sleep well. I heard him whimpering on the couch last night.

Why he didn't know.

"You know what Brian Hyung?"

"Yeah?"

"I think I'm gonna walk with someone today instead."

"Hey Yeonjun hyung."

Yeonjun glanced up and shut off his phone, which was previously showing Instagram, instantly and looked into Beomgyu's eyes.

"Hey," he replied.

Awkward silence.

You even heard the late fall wind blow through their coats, whistling past the trees.
