────୨ৎ 3rd Person's POV ୨ৎ────

The long awaited day has come, the halloween event at Mingyu's school, the hallways designed by the student council, making it look like it've been abandoned since 1855, classrooms filled with all sorts of activities to participate in. "You look spooky." Seungkwan says, looking at Mingyu's scary makeup. "That's the point, where's Jeonghan?" Mingyu asked, looking for the older. "It seems that I've been summoned!" Jeonghan came out, wearing a Harley Quinn cosplay, "Oh my gosh, Jeonghan hyung.. I fear you ATE." Seungkwan squealed in excitement, running over to the older. "That's really... unexpected." "Yours too, Gyu. But I kinda regret this, i have to suffer boys mistaking me as a girl." Jeonghan sighs, "So what? Doesn't change it, you're gay." Mingyu replies, standing up. "Well, I guess it's time to prepare, students could come any moment."

As planned, the horror maze worked, students shrieking in shock as Mingyu and his classmates scares them. "Did you see their faces?" Mingyu laughed as he removed his makeup, "If I could rewind time, I'd definitely see that again." Seungkwan said. "Alright, 1st shift, you're good to go, 2nd shift, get in there!" Seungcheol shouted, holding a piece of paper and a pencil.

"Okay, since we are free, shall we explore other classes?" Seungkwan asked, dragging the 2 out of the class, "Good idea," Mingyu nodded, glancing around the hall and spotting Minghao. Minghao!" Mingyu called, gesturing the other to come to him. "Hey, what's up?" Minghao asked, his hands in his pockets. "Care to join us and check the other classes?" The other asked, receiving an immediate nod. "Alright! Let's go!"

The 4 ran around the schools, going in every class, checking out the different types of events prepared, until they reached the top class, the proclaimed class filled with 'Einstein' clones, Class A. "You know what guys, I think I'm done for now." Mingyu backs out, Minghao joining in. "Oh who cares! It's a cafe, and I'm starving!" Seungkwan grabs both of their wrists, pulling them in.

Mingyu was preparing for the worst, as for Minghao, his eyes wander nervously, knowing that when he enters, those same pair of eyes, same face of his, will be the first thing he sees. "Actually, I think I have to go back-'' Minghao gets interrupted as someone from behind drags him out, leaving him scared and anxious. "Yo guys, where did Minghao go?" Mingyu asks, looking around for his friends. "I dunno, the washroom I guess? I couldn't hear him because of how busy this place is." Jeonghan replies, eyeing the dozens of students gathered up at tables, eating the delicious food prepared by Class A.

They got a table, reserving one more chair in case Minghao comes back. "The food looks so delicious here!" Seungkwan stares at the menu in awe, reading out the different dishes. A student came up to them, and coincidentally, that student was Wonwoo, dressed up as a waiter, with a little of spooky touches.

Mingyu eyes widened, hiding his face which was turning red. "What would you like to order?" Wonwoo pulled up a notepad and a pen. "Uhh.. can we just get 3 Alfredo pastas?" Jeonghan said, sighing as he looks at the shy Mingyu in front of him. "Is that all?" Wonwoo asked, secretly glancing at the other hiding his face. "3 waters, that's all." Jeonghan added. "Alright then." Wonwoo sighed, patting Mingyu's slumped shoulders before leaving.

Mingyu's head shot up, his eyes wider than ever. "D-did he, did he..?" Mingyu pointed at his shoulders, blinking profusely. "Yes, yes he did." Jeonghan rolled his eyes, snickering. "I swear, you treat Wonwoo as if he's some sort of God, calm down." He said.

The food finally arrived, the 3 boys immediately dug into the food, savoring it. "It's really good!" Seungkwan fits multiple of it in his mouth, some sauce smudging outside his lip. "Careful, Kwan. You're gonna choke." Jeonghan says, pulling the fork out of Seungkwan's grasp. "Right, Mingyu... we've been meaning to ask you..." Jeonghan suddenly turned serious, "What?" Mingyu perks his head up, waiting for the other's response.

"Why don't you tell us wear you live now?" The older asked, which made Mingyu freeze, how the hell will he explain he's been living with a guy who he still chickens over despite sharing the same house as him? "Uhm, it's not that important." Mingyu replied. "Not important? It is very important, we're friends, aren't we?" Jeonghan scoffs in disbelief, "We are, but the thing is-" Mingyu gets cut off by the sound of the door opening wide as more students enter, causing a lot of noise. "I forgot the juniors were visiting too." Mingyu quickly says, putting aside Jeonghan's question and continues eating.

"Mingyu hyung?" A voice asked beside Mingyu, catching everyone's attention. "Dino!  What's up?" Mingyu eyes widen, not expecting the young boy to appear here. "Have you seen Wonwoo hyung? I'm looking for him." Dino said. "Maybe at the corner over there?" Mingyu pointed at a secluded area. "Thanks." Dino mumbled walking away, before briefly stopping as Mingyu told him to wait. "Pikachu?" Mingyu raised his eyebrows as he looks at Dino's outfit. "Don't ask." The younger grumbled in annoyance before walking away, making the other chuckle.

"Hold on, was that.. Chan? As in Jeon Chan?" Seungkwan questioned in disbelief, "Yeah, what about him?" Mingyu looked at him, clueless. "That's flipping Wonwoo's younger brother!" Seungkwan whisper-yelled. "I know." Mingyu said as it was the most normal thing ever, which was to him, but not to the other 2.  "What do you mean, 'I know'!? How can you casually talk to Chan but not a single sound to Wonwoo??" Seungkwan slammed the table.

"Uhh... because Chan's less embarrassing to talk to?" Mingyu gave a nervous look, not knowing what to say.

The group left with full stomachs, leaving the class happy. "Is it me or did Minghao not come back yet?" Mingyu glanced around to find him. "He ditched us." Jeonghan smirked, sighing. "Huh, what do you mean?" Mingyu asked, still looking for his friend. "Mingyu, look in front of you." The older pointed.

Mingyu looks forward, seeing Minghao happily talking to a taller boy beside, him. He tilts his head, squinting his eyes as those brown locks of hair look strangely familiar. "Holy moly..." Mingyu scoffs.

"Isn't that...

Wen Junhui?"
