Boyfriend Material- Lee Jeno

Preperations

Shortly after my conversation with Bea, I fall asleep, phone in hand. I awake to the sun shining through my windows, onto my unwashed face from the night before. The feeling of something buzzing repeatedly in my hand broke my slumber. I slowly open my eyes and look down to see my clothes from yesterday still on my body. My phone was clutched in my hand and not on the charger. What happened last night? WAIT WE LEAVE FOR CAMP TODAY- OH NO! I DID NOT EVEN PACK MY THINGS! The time on my phone reads 7:38 and panic sets in. The buzzing was coming from multiple texts from Bea that read:

7:23 am
Bea:
Hey I'm about to leave my house, be there in about 20

Bea:
Hellooooo??

Bea:
Siyeonnn!!

Bea:
I swear you better be awake

As I read the last of the messages, I see the three dots that signify she is typing. About 15 seconds later a message pops up on the screen that reads:

7:40 am
Bea:
Be there in 5

Why didn't anyone wake me up? I can never trust anyone in this house. Jumping out of bed, I grab the nearest tote bag from the bottom of my closet that is covered with little pink and brown hearts on the outside. I tear through my drawers and try to find some somewhat cute and comfy clothes, but really I'm just throwing whatever I can into the bag. Clothes? Check. Hairbrush? Check. Toothbrush? Check. Hmm, I feel like I'm missing something... "Hey," startled by the voice, I swiftly turn around. In my doorway I see my best friend holding a small bag that could not possibly have enough clothes for a week at camp.

"Oh hey Bea"

"You look like you woke up 10 minutes ago"

"Maybe because I DID wake up 10 minutes ago! I fell asleep while after talking to you and I forgot to pack."

"Typical Siyeon, I knew you were a procrastinator, but even for things like this?" I throw the shirt that is currently in my hand at her.

"Oh shut up. Hey I have a question, was Jeno in the living room when you got here?"

"No, why?"

"I need to go through the living room to get my clothes from the laundry room and I really don't want to see him this early in the morning."

"Why are you acting so weird about him? Why do you even care what he thinks- it is YOUR house you know?"

"Yeah I know, but I just feel embarrassed being around him."

"Sounds like you have a crush!"

"UHM NO! Bea I just met him yesterday! How could I like him? I mean he is kinda cute and his smile is adorable and I could listen to his voice of honey all day, but I don't like him! And even if I did why would it even matter?"

"No reason. Anyway I can't wait to meet this Jeno person who embarrassed my best friend to the point of ranting about him."

"NO! Don't you DARE say anything to him about this!"

"Okay fine I won't, but seriously get dressed and then meet us outside near the bus, I'll tell them you will be out in a minute." She exits the room and I continue cramming things I might need over the next week into my bag.

I grab a banana to eat for breakfast on the bus since it is too late to eat any real food. Looking out the kitchen window I see Jeno laughing with Trevor. Jeno's hair is not styled and lays flat on his head with a part almost down the center. Every time he laughs, his eyes close shut and his face, ever so slightly, scrunches near his cheeks and nose. His smile reminds me of an angel because of how bright it is. What I didn't notice is Bea standing behind me observing the whole thing. I whip around to head out the door and get startled by Bea standing behind me. "How long have you been there?" I questioned.
