"And so, the new adventure begins."

The day all students go back to school, Jungwoo never really hated coming back to school, but now, he's certainly wishing for an extension. With his hair sticking to all directions, Jungwoo walked to his locker, eyes noticing that the lock on his locker was certainly does not look like the way they used to.

With a frown, Jungwoo entered his code, sighing in relief as the padlock opened, he opened the door. For a moment, he just stood there, frozen in shock. Then his heart started beating faster, pictures of him and Yukhei were inside his locker, but there was something wrong.

Yukhei and him looked happy in these photos, Jungwoo remembered those days, but, what scared Jungwoo, was the fact that his face, all of them, had a huge red 'x' drawn on them. In a rush, Jungwoo reached for all the photos, pulling them out and looking at it intently.

There were some photos of him, inside his house, inside his room, and even in the kitchen. Jungwoo swallowed the lump in his throat as he noticed another one. It was just outside Jungwoo's room, and what scared Jungwoo was the fact that he was vulnerable at this photo, it was a photo of him, sleeping, and it looked like whoever took this picture had a drone, or was perhaps standing right outside Jungwoo's window.

"Jungwoo?" The said male's head turned quickly, his neck almost getting whiplash from the speed.

w̸h̸i̸p̸-w̸h̸i̸p̸l̸a̸s̸h̸ s̸h̸a̸w̸t̸y̸ g̸i̸v̸e̸ m̸e̸ w̸h̸i̸p̸-w̸h̸i̸p̸l̸a̸s̸h̸
o̸h̸ g̸o̸d̸, i̸m̸ s̸o̸r̸r̸y̸

"H-Hey," Jungwoo managed to speak, shoving the picture back inside his locker and closing it, before turning back to the taller male. "You needed something?"

"No," The taller chuckled, looking at Jungwoo intently. "You're acting weird. What's wrong?" It was true, Jungwoo was biting his lips and his fingers were fidgeting, as he stared at the taller.

"Nothing's wrong, don't worry." Jungwoo chuckled nervously, hoping that he won't realize that Jungwoo was lying.

"Uhuh, well I'll see you around, Jungwoo-hyung." The taller teased, making the shorter roll his eyes at him.

"We're on the same year, Seungjae."

"Hehe, I know." The taller said, before walking away and waving at Jungwoo. Somehow, talking to Seungjae made Jungwoo feel a bit... Safe? Knowing that someone other than Yukhei cares. Someone other than his friends care.

I'm so done with bullshit. Jungwoo thought, before sighing and grabbing the books he needed, and setting aside the sinking feeling as he saw the photos once more, disregarding the fear that was clawing at him.

The moment Yukhei walked inside their classroom, his eyes immediately landed on his seat, where a bag was placed neatly. The teenager sighed, before picking it up, and placing it on the floor, completely ignoring the fact that Yuta and Minhyung accidentally kicked it over.

I'm not having your bullshit. Yukhei thought, before placing his bag down and sitting on his seat, hearing a muffled cry from a few seats away from him. Not falling for it. Yukhei thought once again, before standing up and greeting their teacher after the holiday break.
