"What club did you join, Hyuckie?" Renjun asks.
They are currently spending their time at the mini library, reading books of Shakespeare. It has been 1 week since the school started and now club promotions are everywhere such as sports, art, glee, theater, dance, robotics and so much more. Renjun of course picked art club since it's his passion ever since.
"I have been thinking about theater, glee or dance. It's hard to choose when-"
"You're freaking talented." Renjun cuts him off. Donghyuck feels flustered because of the compliment.
"You are also talented! You sing, compose and dance plus you have photography skills." Donghyuck tells him. Renjun just shrugs and he continues to read the book on his hand. Donghyuck is right. He can also sing and dance but those skills, Renjun preferred for it to be hidden. He also keep his own lyrics on his treasure chest at home and he even hide it from his own bestfriend but Donghyuck respects him for his own secret. Renjun writes to put his emotions into words. When his chest is full of mixed feelings, Renjun will just grab a clean white sheet of paper, let the black ink fill in and his tears that leave a stain.
"Hello dudes!"
Renjun snaps from his thoughts as he hears someone and he looks at the guy whose color of his collar indicates that he's a 12th grader. He raises his eyebrow at him before going back to read his book instead of giving him attention. While Donghyuck didn't even glance at the guy. The guy coughs trying to gain their attention but he fails miserably. He coughs again, sounding more eager. Donghyuck puts down his book while giving him a stern look. But the guy shows him a sweet smile, not clearly affected.
"I just want to ask what clubs you both want to join?"
"Why would we tell you? Are we close?" Donghyuck harshly replies.
Renjun stops himself from reading, he puts the book down and crosses his arms as he watch the scene in front of him.
The guy suddenly goes to sit on the chair beside Donghyuck and smirks," Now we're close so... can you tell me?"
Renjun prevents himself from laughing because Donghyuck's face is as red as tomato. Renjun knows his bestfriend doesn't like it when someone outsold him from being sarcastic.
"I'm Lee Minhyung, president of Glee club. If you choose our club then you won't regret it!" Minhyung prepares to do a shake hand but since his guts tell him that Donghyuck won't even bother, Minhyung pretends to rub his nape instead. "So every club meeting on friday, it's either jamming day or performance day or practice day." Minhyung continues. "We also have concerts every end of the month. It's going to be so much fun!"
Minhyung stands up and bows. He glances at Renjun first then he glances back to Donghyuck which is longer and eyes full of interest.
"Thank you for your time. Goodbye!"
Minhyung left while Donghyuck is left dumbfounded.
"You always end up being with annoying people. First is Jumin—Jim—"
"Jaemin."
"Uh right. You end up being classmates with Jaemin and now clubmates with Minhyung. How unlucky." Renjun chuckles and he pokes at Donghyuck's cheeks teasingly.
"I'm not joining glee club! I'm going to join dance or theater instead."
"Whatever you say." Renjun shrugs but he's still giggling.
"Let's just go back to our class!" Done with Renjun's teasing. Donghyuck grabs his bag and stomps away.
Renjun's giggles turn into a laugh so Donghyuck turns his head while mouthing 'I hate you.' Renjun sticks his tongue out, he is quite enjoying to tease his bestfriend.
"Be thankful because you're my bestfriend!" Donghyuck shouts before leaving as fast as he can so the librarian won't scold him.
Renjun stands up, picks up the books they got and place it to the shelves. It is where books are for in return and librarians will do their job to place it according to its section. He grabs his bag then he goes out through the door.
Renjun checks his watch and sees that he still have 10 minutes left from his vacant time. Since the mini library is at the 5th floor along with the club rooms, he decided to go to the art club. When he's at the right room, he sees a paper placed at the door so he reads it.
Art Club!
Sign in for membership here:
Renjun immediately pulls out his ballpen from his pocket and scribbles his name onto the sheet. He's the 3rd one to put his name and he's relieved that he signed up already because the numbers are only up to 20. After writing his name, he smiles at himself.
But fate must hate him so much because there's someone on the other side who went out of the room. Not just a typical person but it's someone that Renjun did not wish too see, Jaemin. He mentally groans as he starts to walk, keeping his posture and bitch face on. He just need to pretend that Jaemin's not there as he passes by.
'Atleast he's not going to be my clubmate right? The same for his minions', Renjun thinks.
When he's already at the stairs, he fist bump into the air and laugh like he just won a life. He passed through him without looking like a total idiot but not anymore because a voice speaks to him.
"What are you doing?" Someone asks him from behind, startling Renjun and his own feet betrays him and now he's going to face death by falling on the stairs but before his imagination happens, he is pulled back by a strong and fast hand.
"Shit!"
Renjun is too shocked, scared by the sudden situation and now he's trembling. He finds himself staring widely at the man's chest who almost got him killed and who also saved his life. How ironic.
"Be careful!" The man says with a worry. His hand still holds Renjun's wrist tightly.
"You almost got yourself killed." Renjun comes back from the shock and he slowly pushes the man away. His sweet but manly scent suffocates him. Renjun looks at the man and he's not surprised that it's Jaemin.
"It's your freaking fault!" Renjun shouts at him, exaggerated, trying not to let any tears fall.
"If you didn't scare the shit out of me then that wouldn't happen! Damn, you should have stayed there and shut your mouth!" He continues.
Jaemin founds himself guilty. If he just let himself not to be amused by Renjun who's fist bumping the air while laughing then this wouldn't happen. If he just walked quietly behind the boy then this wouldn't happen.
"I'm sorry." Jaemin says with his deep but soft voice.
Renjun didn't reply but his furious face is enough for Jaemin to get the message. He turns his back carefully then he walks down the stairs while trembling, leaving Jaemin behind.
Jaemin sighs while shaking his head.
Another reason for Renjun to hate him.
