jacket

Wonwoo walked around. But Wonwoo was trying to go somewhere. His room.
Jun walked around.
Jun didn't particularly go anywhere. He was just walking.

The rain was nice. It started to sprinkle rather than rain but it was still nice.

"Damn."
Jun muttered to himself.
"I didn't bring a jacket."
He rubbed his arms in an attempt to warm himself from the coldness that bit at his arms.

He walked around and looked through store windows but eventually got tired and sat on a bench outside a local bar. His eyes wandered around into store windows until he spotted a nice, black jacket. Well, it was about time he got a new one. That one from Wonwoo won't last long. He got up and walked into the store, trying to convince himself that he was getting it for himself and not because it looks like Wonwoo's style. The cashier rung him up and Junhui walked out with his new jacket that totally didn't remind him of Wonwoo. He pulled the hood up and kept his head down as the rain started getting heavier but still not actually raining.

Meanwhile, Wonwoo met up with Mingyu after texting him that he really needed help. Wonwoo wanted to back to his room but he knew it wasn't good for him. Mingyu was always there for him. His best friend was everything you could ask for in a best friend.
Mingyu came out from a store and handed a bottle of soda to Wonwoo. Mingyu's phone chimed and he looked at it but then immediately shoved it back in his pocket. He told Wonwoo not to worry about it even before Wonwoo asked anything. Mingyu knew he would ask. He was always trying to figure out if it was Jun or not. But that's understandable. Mingyu opened a bag of chips for himself and watched Wonwoo open the soda bottle. Mingyu motioned to the bench that was near them and they both sat down with a sigh.
"How have you been?"
Mingyu asked while eating a chip.

"I don't know."
Wonwoo answered, not bothering to drink the soda even though he opened it.

"Well, you got out of you room so I guess that's good."
Mingyu said. Usually he would chuckle after saying things like this but he decided to keep it to himself when Wonwoo agreed, finally taking a sip of the soda. They sat in comfortable silence, just drinking or eating. Finally, Wonwoo spoke up.

"Who texted you?"
Wonwoo asked, quietly at first but after Mingyu asked what he said, he asked again, louder this time.

"Oh, i-it was just Jeonghan."
Mingyu stuttered.

Bingo.
Mingyu was terrible at hiding things and that stutter just proved the point. 

"About..."
Wonwoo almost choked on either saliva or tears.
"About Jun?"
He sighed.

Mingyu glanced at him and basically gave himself away at this point.

"You're terrible at hiding things."
Wonwoo joked but neither of them laughed. They weren't in the mood to.

"Yeah, it was about Jun."
Mingyu admitted shoving some chips in his mouth as if he thought silencing himself with chips would keep Wonwoo from asking questions. He was wrong after Wonwoo asked what Jeonghan said about Jun.
Mingyu acted as if it was difficult to eat the numerous chips he just shoved in his mouth but Wonwoo just patiently sat and waited for him to finish.

Finally, Mingyu spilled everything. That Jun left for China when Wonwoo was recovering from a hangover.  That Jun was in China for the past 6 months and that he was finally back. That Jeonghan just talked to him. And that Jun could be wandering around right now. In fact, Jun was wandering around but they didn't know that.

Wonwoo only responded with, "what?" throughout the talk. He was mad at Jeonghan for not telling him immediately but that was soon replaced with some weird feeling he couldn't figure out. Eventually, he made up his mind and just wanted to go back to his room.

Mingyu didn't convince him to stay because he's a good friend. Instead, he walked with Wonwoo back to his room in silence. He knew it was a lot to process and Wonwoo probably just got a headache.

They walked and passed several people, including that one figure in a new black jacket that Wonwoo liked.
