Riwoo's POV:

I wake up feeling refreshed, the morning sunlight streaming through my window. As I go through my usual routine, I can't help but think about my dream from when i was really new at this school - the one where Jaehyun and I were in the janitor's closet, and when he ran after me.

I smile to myself, remembering the person I was back then - shy, uncertain, and struggling to find my place. It's amazing how far I've come since then, and I'm grateful for the friends I've made along the way.

Just as I'm finishing up my breakfast (which i made by myself since my mom isn't home), Sungho bursts through the door, his energetic presence filling the room. "Hey, Riwoo! Ready to walk to school together?"

I nod, smiling. "Yeah, let's go."

We head out the door, strolling through the crisp morning air. Sungho chats excitedly about his plans for the day, and I listen, feeling content.

As we walk, I glance over at Sungho, grateful for his friendship. He's been a constant source of support and encouragement, and I don't know what I'd do without him. We've grown quite close.

We approach the school gates, and I spot Jaehyun waiting for us, looking relaxed. My heart skips a beat as our eyes meet, and I feel that familiar flutter in my chest.

Sungho notices my gaze and grins mischievously. "Ah, Riwoo's got a lil boyfriend" he teases, nudging me playfully. I blush, trying to play it cool, but Jaehyun just smiles and waves, his huge jacket basically swallowing him.

Cute.

We enter the classroom, and I take my seat next to Jaehyun, trying to focus on the lesson ahead. But I can't help looking at him, feeling a sense of comfort and familiarity.

Taesan and Woonhak are chatting quietly behind us, while Leehan is already dozing off, his head on his desk. Sungho's trying to hide a grin, still teasing me.

The teacher starts writing on the board, and I try to focus on the lesson, but my mind keeps wandering back to Jaehyun. I wonder if he's thinking about me too.

Jaehyun looks back at me and smiles, his expression soft and gentle. I feel my heart skip a beat, and I look away, trying to play it cool.

But I can't help feeling excited, wondering what the future holds for us.

The class drags on, but I'm barely paying attention. I'm too busy dreaming of what could be, my heart racing with anticipation.

Jaehyun's POV:

---

I gaze around the classroom, feeling grateful for my life. I've got amazing friends, a supportive family, and a sense of purpose. And then there's Riwoo - sweet, shy, and adorably awkward Riwoo.

I can't help but smile whenever I think about him. We've grown so close over the past weeks, bonding over shared jokes and late-night conversations. I feel like I can be my true self around him, without fear of judgment or rejection.

As I glance over at Riwoo, I notice him sneaking glances at me. My heart beating weirdly (it could just be heart problems). I wonder if he might feel ready to explore our situation, if he might see me as more than just a...um...friend? Aren't we already past the friends stage?

But for now, I'm just happy to be near him, to enjoy the feeling of his presence. Life is good, and I'm excited to see what the future holds.

I refocus on the lesson, trying to pay attention to the teacher's words. But my mind keeps wandering back to Riwoo, wondering what he's thinking, what he's feeling.
