Yixing slid a drink across the table to Zitao "Cheer up. He said he liked you right?"

"Yeah and i didn't say anything back! I just left because he said I could"
Zitao sighed "wow I'm such a loser... and yet I was the one who liked him all along! Why didn't I just jump into his arms and told him the truth like he had done to me?!"

"Look, it's not the end of the world right? We can just go see him sometime and you can explain then, yeah? Sound good?"

Zitao hesitated as though he was thinking, but then soon gave a slow nod. However he was also quick to pipe up again, moaning once more. "Sometime? I can't leave it long surely! That might give him the impression that I don't actually like him but feel guilty so I'll be hi—"

"Ok stop" Yixing hushed. "You're thinking way too much Tao. We will make it a deal to go tonight, if you'd like, because I was already plannin—planning a.. date-ish with Suho.." Yixings cheeks tinted red as he carried on to avoid embarrassment. "So you can come with and then you can meet him upstairs and sort things out!"

"He won't  let me in though..."

"Sure he will"

"Why would he"

"Because he just would"

"That's not a good enough answer"

"Just take it"

Kris was lay on his bed, face up the ceiling with his phone in hand. As much as kris told himself he didn't care about what happened or that he had forgotten it already—it was still at the back of his mind. To distract himself when he got back home, he tried finding a movie to watch but quickly realised how bored he was trying to find a good one so instead he gave the remote to junmyeon and went upstairs.
He was now looking through social media, mostly at how his old friends were doing back in China.

It was around 7:12 when he heard the front door being opened and a few distant voices greet each other. Kris didn't really want to socialise with anyone (at all) right now—not because he was sulking and felt like crying until his heart content, but because he was in that mood. And to be fair even if it was to do with Zitao, then he was more annoyed, annoyed with himself. 

Then there were footsteps, footsteps moving up the stairs and close to his door. Kris listened the sounds stop once they reached his door.

A knock.

"Who is it?" Kris asked, trying to hide his suspicion.

There was a very long silence before:
"i-it's Tao..."

'I knew it'

Kris didn't know how to reply back or even what to do. He thought maybe he should let him in to see if he had anything to say but then he thought against it. If the guy had anything to say he would had said it earlier! He suspected Tao had just came to embarrass him even more.

"Can I come in?" Zitao said quietly, eyes flickering between the floor and Yifan eyes.

The older hated how this had to happen right now, but it couldn't get more worse than this right now? The kid might just have something nice to say?
