28: ᴛᴏɢᴇᴛʜᴇʀ

It was a crisp morning as Jisung and Chenle made their way to university, hands intertwined and smiles on their faces. The autumn leaves crunched under their feet, and the cool breeze carried the faint scent of coffee and fresh pastries from nearby cafes. It felt like a scene from a romantic movie, and Chenle couldn't help but squeeze Jisung's hand a little tighter, his heart swelling with happiness.

As they entered the university campus, their friends were quick to notice. Mark, Haechan, Renjun, Jaemin, and Jeno were gathered near the entrance, chatting and laughing. When they spotted Jisung and Chenle approaching, their conversations halted, and all eyes turned to the couple.

Haechan was the first to react, a wide grin spreading across his face. ❝Well, look who's here! The new couple!❞ he exclaimed, his tone dripping with playful sarcasm.

Chenle blushed, but Jisung just chuckled, giving his boyfriend's hand a reassuring squeeze. ❝Good morning to you too, Haechan,❞ he replied, his voice light.

Renjun raised an eyebrow, a teasing glint in his eyes. ❝Gosh, you guys are so adorable. It's almost sickening,❞ he said, though the smile on his face betrayed his true feelings.

Jaemin and Jeno exchanged amused glances before Jaemin spoke up. ❝Yeah, seriously. Could you be any cuter?❞ he teased, nudging Jeno, who nodded in agreement.

Chenle's blush deepened, but he managed a shy smile. ❝Thanks, guys. We're just happy, you know?❞

Mark, always the more laid-back one, gave them a thumbs-up. ❝It's good to see you both so happy. You deserve it.❞

Jisung wrapped an arm around Chenle's shoulders, pulling him closer. ❝We really do appreciate it. You've all been so supportive.❞

Haechan smirked, crossing his arms over his chest. ❝Oh, don't get all sentimental on us now. We just want to make sure you two lovebirds don't get too distracted from your studies.❞

Chenle rolled his eyes playfully. ❝We won't, Haechan. Besides, it's not like you don't get distracted by Mark every day,❞ he shot back, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

Mark and Haechan both turned a bit red at that, much to everyone's amusement. ❝Touché,❞ Mark muttered, earning a laugh from the group.

Jisung glanced at his watch. ❝We should get to class. We don't want to be late,❞ he said, though he didn't make any move to let go of Chenle's hand.

Renjun nodded, his teasing demeanor softening. ❝Yeah, we should. But seriously, it's great to see you guys like this. It makes us all happy.❞

With that, they all began to head towards their respective classes, but not without a few more playful jabs and warm smiles exchanged. As they walked, Jisung leaned in close to Chenle, his voice soft and affectionate. ❝You okay? They didn't embarrass you too much, did they?❞

Chenle shook his head, a content smile on his lips. ❝No, it's fine. I'm just really happy. Being with you makes everything better.❞

Jisung's heart fluttered at those words. He stopped for a moment, pulling Chenle into a gentle hug. ❝I feel the same way. I'm so glad we're finally together.❞
