"Guys, I think I'm starting to go crazy," Seungcheol complained, dropping his head and rubbing his temples.

"Starting? Are you saying that you aren't crazy already?" Jun teased after taking a sip of his soda. Seungcheol scowled at him then continued to pout.

"What's wrong?" Jihoon exhaled loudly, annoyed. "I swear, it's like I'm friends with a bunch of children."

"It's Jeonghan," Seungcheol answered, ignoring Jihoon's jab at them. "He's driving me insane!"

"What's he doing?" Hansol asked curiously.

"That's the thing! He doesn't even know that he's doing things that make me like this! He just–argh!" Seungcheol huffed.

"Oh boy, here we go," Jihoon sighed.

"So–okay, so I lent him my jacket a while back because he was feeling cold, right? He gave it back to me a few days ago, but it smells like him! And whenever I'm tutoring him, he'll lean in really close – it's a habit of his – and his face will be just close enough to taunt me, but not close enough for us to actually be kissing, and I just...ugh! And whenever he's that close, I can smell his hair, and it smells really good, and sometimes a strand will fall out from behind his ear and it's so hard for me to keep myself from tucking it back," Seungcheol ranted.

"Why do you keep mentioning how he smells? Are you the main character of some sappy romance novel or something?" Jun scoffed.

"Shut up. That's not all though! Whenever he comes out of the shower, he's still dripping wet, and sometimes he's shirtless too, and it kills me!" Seungcheol continued. "And when our parents are out, I cook for us, right? From time to time, he makes the cutest and sometimes sexiest noises while eating, but he doesn't even notice! And he likes to nap a lot, and when he wakes up after a nap, he makes this really adorable face. Ugh! See what I mean?! He's making me go crazy, and the worst part is that he doesn't realize that he's doing any of this!"

"Are you sure he doesn't realize it?" Jihoon asked with a frown. Seungcheol blinked.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Seungcheol asked.

"Well, the Yoon Jeonghan I know is pretty smart. To me, it sounds like he's doing all of this deliberately," Jihoon told Seungcheol.

"Huh? But why would he do that?" Seungcheol replied, confused. Jihoon gave him a judging glare.

"No. This is too frustrating. I'm not doing this. Figure it out yourself," Jihoon said.

"Figure what out?!" Seungcheol responded.

"It's pretty obvious, Seungcheol-hyung," Jun added.

"Obviously it's not since I can't figure it out!" Seungcheol retorted. He turned to Hansol. "Hansol-ah, do you know what they're talking about?"

"He says that he's the one going crazy, but I'm the one who's actually going crazy," Jihoon muttered, taking a large gulp of his drink.

"Um, I think I know, but if it's what I think it is, then I don't think that I should be the one to tell you, Seungcheol-hyung," Hansol replied. He smiled at Seungcheol apologetically.

"Oi, you're not a complete idiot. Just think about it a little, would you? The answer is more obvious than you think," Jihoon told him. Jun gave a low whistle.

"As expected, the only one who can get away with saying stuff like that to Seungcheol-hyung is Jihoon," Jun said. "Jihoon's right, it's really obvious. C'mon, even Hansol figured it out, and he's usually oblivious when it comes to these things."

"Jun just gave you a huge clue as to what it is. Figure it out quickly, okay? Honestly, it's like you guys teamed up to drive me crazy," Jihoon sighed. Seungcheol frowned. What wasn't he getting? Why couldn't he figure out what the others were talking about? Was it really that obvious? What was it?
