3rd person's POV:

The next day at school, the group of friends gathered in the courtyard, chatting and laughing. Woonhak, looking more relaxed than he had in weeks, smiled as he talked to Riwoo and Jaehyun.

Sungho, being his usual self, joked around, trying to make everyone laugh. "Hey, Woonhak, I heard you're now an expert at crying. Can you teach me some tips?"

Woonhak playfully rolled his eyes. "Shut up, Sungho."

Taesan, observing the group with a keen eye, noticed the subtle changes in their dynamics. He saw the way Riwoo and Jaehyun exchanged glances, the way their hands touched when they thought no one was looking.

Leehan, meanwhile, was preoccupied with his growling stomach. "Guys, can we please go get some food? I'm starving!"

Riwoo chuckled. "Leehan, you're always hungry. Plus its literally 7am."

Leehan shrugged. "Hey, someone's got to keep the food industry alive."

As they headed to their class, Taesan fell back beside Riwoo and whispered, "So, what's going on with you and Jaehyun?"

Riwoo's face flushed, but he just smiled and shook his head. "Nothing, Taesan. Just drop it."

Taesan grinned knowingly. "Okay, okay. But I'm watching you two."

Oh, he definitely knew.

Riwoo's POV:

---

As I sit in class, trying to focus on the teacher's drone-like voice, my mind keeps wandering back to last night. Jaehyun kissing me, his arms around me, the way my heart skipped a beat...

I glance over at Sungho, who's scribbling notes with a look of intense focus. He was moved to the seat next to Taesan. I need to tell someone about this, and Sungho's always been my go-to guy for secrets. As well as Taerae.

I lean over and whisper, "Sungho, can I talk to you for a sec?"

Sungho looks up, raises an eyebrow, and whispers back, "What's up?"

I take a deep breath and whisper, "Jaehyun and I...we kissed last night."

Sungho's eyes widen, and he mouths, "WHAT?!"

I nod, trying to stifle a grin.

Sungho looks like he's about to explode with excitement, but he manages to keep his cool, whispering, "Tell me everything!"

I glance around the classroom, making sure no one's watching, and i pass a note with the whole story to Sungho, who's reading with rapt attention.

As I finish, Sungho lets out a soft "WHOA" and starts grinning like a maniac.

I laugh and whisper, "Shut up, Sungho!"

But Sungho just keeps grinning and whispering, "I knew it! I knew you two would eventually!"

I roll my eyes, but can't help smiling. It feels good to have someone to share this with.

At lunch, our group gathers in the cafeteria, chatting and laughing. I try to act normal, but I can feel Sungho's knowing gaze on me. I'm sure he's dying to spill the beans to the others.

Jaehyun sits down beside me, his leg brushing against mine. I feel a flutter in my chest, but try to play it cool.

Leehan, oblivious to the tension, starts talking about one of his favorite foods, ramen. "Guys, have you tried that new ramen place downtown? It's amazing!"
