-Soomi-

I heard the door open and close, making my eyes widen.

Why is Sangyeon back already?

"Soomi-ah!" He shouted.

"Yeah?!" I shouted back, quickly wincing at the pain of my throbbing head.

He went in my room as I sat down on my bed. He hurriedly walked over to me and felt my forehead. He cursed under his breath as his fist on his lap clenched.

Ah, he found out what Jaehyun did.

"Oppa, I'm fine, r - "

"Soomi, stop, you are very far from fine. You're going to catch a fever if you don't warm up now."

"I took a hot shower." I reasoned.

"But the air is cold. Your body is reacting to the sudden change of temperature. Now go under the blankets, I'll make you porridge. I'll text my professors, I'm sure they'll understand."

"Sangyeon - "

"Soomi." He deadpanned.

"You're mad, aren't you?"

He exhaled sharply. "Yes, I am, but not at you. At Jaehyun. I don't understand why he treats you this way. You and the others get along fine."

"Please don't tell me you did anything rash." I said worried.

"Well... "

"Sangyeon!"

"What?" He chuckled lightly. "I just threatened him, that's all."

"Yah."

"Don't 'yah' me. I'm older!" He scolded playfully.

"There's the brother I know." I smiled, and he rolled his eyes. 

"Seriously, Soomi, get under your blankets. I'll be back in a bit."

He kissed my forehead as I brought my legs up to the bed and went under the warm comfort of blankets.

-Joonyoung-

After Sangyeon left, the cafeteria was just staring at us.

Our group was known to be the tightest, the one that never fought. But I guess what they all just saw changed everything.

Jaehyun was still looking down at the table, looking - and probably feeling - defeated. All of us had our eyes on him, ready to suppress him if he raged.

We waited, and waited, and waited, an -

"That's it." Jaehyun said as he stood up. "I give up."

After that, he just walked off without giving us a single glance or a single word. The guys looked confused but I knew what he meant by his statement.

He was going to give up his act.
