✧·ﾟ: *✧·ﾟ:*

It has been a few days since they landed back in Korea and since Stella's break up with Namjoon. She didn't bother calling or texting him, and neither did he. she knew there was nothing to fix or anything left to say. She knew he was right, everything he said, and she knew he had every right to feel that way. She was in love with Vernon, there was no point in denying it, and she felt awful for Namjoon bearing that whilst being in relationship with her.

The members, of course, were being extra nice and gentle around her, afraid that she will break and because they didn't want to upset her anymore than she already was.

Jeonghan found it suspicious Stella wasn't as sad as he thought she was going to be. She seemed a little to calm and normal about the situation, which members like Minghao and Joshua didn't find it as weird considering the reasons. They knew of Stella's feelings for Vernon and were aware that her feelings for Namjoon were slowly decreasing overtime, that every piece of affection Namjoon showed her compared to nothing when it came to her Vernon.

Stella didn't know where her and Vernon stood now. They were talking and hanging out as they usually would but something was missing and she felt exposed, not knowing how to go about it. She couldn't confess to Vernon, it wasn't feel the time for that, and she couldn't do that to Namjoon. Something felt off between them, but she couldn't place what it was.

Minghao gave her a considerate look as she ate her tangerine at the dining table "that can't be the only thing you have this morning"

Stella yawned loudly "i can't be bothered making anything"

"you're so lazy" He says back to her and shakes his head at her disapproving and was about to say something else but gets cut off by a call

"who is it?" she asks him, her mouth full of tangerine

"Jun" He replies and answers the call "hmm, what is it?"

After a minute he hangs up the call and says "Jun said he's a made a lot of food for breakfast and that we should join them"

"but i'm so tried, tell him to bring it here" Stella says pouting and Minghao gives her a look, crossing over to where she was sitting and tries to drag her up, making her giggle "Hao, what are you doing!"

"you can't just mop around and do nothing, you need to move your body and go eat" Minghao yells at her but there was a hint of amusement in it in hearing her laugh

"okay, okay but no need to force me" Stella says laughing and helps herself up "should we wake Shua up?"

"i feel bad if i do, i don't think he slept well last night" Minghao says to her

Stella frowns at this "again? he hasn't been sleeping well lately"

"i'll send him a text that we're gone to upstairs to eat breakfast with the guys and he can join us when he's ready" Minghao tells her and tilts his head as he saw Stella ignore what he just said, writing up a note, grabbing a glass of water and quietly slipping into Joshua's room

She leaves the note and glass of water on his bedside table, seeing that he was fast asleep. She looks at him fondly and feels a wave of love hit her, she truly was lucky to have the kindest boys by her side.
