They become close during fall.
The weeks that follow after their meeting are filled with Hyunwoo being bombarded with pleads to bring Hyungwon over to be introduced because he had told his circle that the sophomore hadn't really found a solid group of friends inside the campus, always jumping from one circle to another. He had told Hyungwon about the matter, and added that he should to do it only if he wanted to; much to Hyunwoo's surprise, the younger male agreed more enthusiastically than initially expected.
Hyungwon fit in with their group quite perfectly, quiet as he was the first few times. They all fell for his charms easily, the slight baritone of his voice pulling them into his friendly web. Hyungwon already knew Hoseok's soulmate, Changkyun. They're apparently classmates for one or two classes every Wednesday to Friday, which made it easier the next few times Hyungwon sat with their group, louder and more open. It didn't take too long before Hyungwon has practically made a seat, and was almost never not with them.
"Hyung! " The sophomore whines, dropping to his knees in front of Hyunwoo, making the older male laugh and tug at his arm to make him stand again. "I'm so done with this place! We can't get through; Jesus fu—"
"We have fifteen minutes left. Let's not waste it, okay?" Hyungwon stands and nods, seeing as he has no other choice. Hyunwoo smiles and ignores the hand that innocently rests on his shoulder as he takes the lead. Their eyes continue to wander around so they can get out, and so that he can regain his slightly fractured composure without using this escape room as a lame excuse.
They're currently on their term break, and they've all decided to spend their first day off at an amusement park located at the end of the city. Much to Kihyun and Jooheon's dismay, majority had agreed to waste their first few hours in this Escape Room attraction. Naturally, the couples had insisted on staying together, which ultimately lead him to pair with his roommate. They were supposed to be a trio, but Jooheon never liked Escape Rooms especially since this one is horror themed. Jooheon's probably outside either roaming around, or munching on food.
Bang!
Hyunwoo's heart leaps, but the soft Oh god he mutters gets washed out by Hyungwon's loud, wavering scream. "Seriously hyung, I'm going to die!"
Hyunwoo bites his lips to try and suppress the laughter forming in his throat; he finds that he really doesn't have to when all it takes for him to choke on air, for his stomach to do Olympic worthy flips is Hyungwon clinging to his back—plastering his lanky self against him—while they continue to look around the room for clues.
The staff occasionally bangs on the doors they've already passed, and it makes the younger cling to him tighter. Hyunwoo's afraid of what Hyungwon might think if he notices how fast his heart is beating, so without much thought, he stops breathing for a moment, as if it'd help calm his heart.
"Hyung..." Hyunwoo's eyes gravitate toward a bloody desk with a microscope on top, stacks of papers on each side, gruesome sketches of people taped onto the walls, and books scattered by the desk's feet. Hyungwon raises his head from where it's been hiding low behind his shoulder to squint and scan the desk for anything that has potential in getting them out of this last room.
