HEXED ; got7 [HIATUS]

Bambam had just gotten done with his last class for the day and was now striding down the hall, hoping to get to dinner quickly. He always did this, eating dinner quickly, going to the dorms and grabbing his things, then doing his homework in the library where his housemates couldn't bother him.

"Bambam!"

The familiar high-pitched voice made Bambam's stomach fill with dread. He glanced around, hoping his housemates hadn't heard, and then ducked behind a wall. He watched as Yugyeom came walking past in confusion and grabbed his arm, pulling him behind the wall as well.

"What?", Bambam hissed, the question coming out harsher than he meant. The Hufflepuff seemed unaffected though, grinning widely down at him.

"I was wondering when you wanted to hang out again, seeing as we're friends now", Yugyeom said. His eyes were wide and hopeful.

Bambam had no idea why he had agreed to be friends with the other boy. Maybe it was because everything Yugyeom had said about him had been completely right, or maybe it was because he really did want friends. Whatever the reason, he was extremely regretting it now.

It's not that he disliked Yugyeom. He had disliked him, but after their talk the previous night, he had changed his mind. He could tell why people were so drawn to him. He really was nice.

But that didn't change the fact that he was a Hufflepuff, and if Bambam's housemates saw him interacting with him, they would give him hell for it.

"Uh, I don't know...", Bambam trailed off, staring at the ground. Yugyeom shuffled his feet.

"We could hang out somewhere after dinner? I don't have practice today."

Right, Yugyeom was on the Hufflepuff Quidditch team. A chaser, Bambam vaguely remembered.

"I have some studying to do", Bambam said. The excuse was perfectly true, but that didn't make it any less of an excuse.

"Me too! We could study together?"

Honestly, the idea didn't seem that bad. Bambam relented the silent afternoons he spent in the library, all the quiet and studying nearly driving him mad.

"I guess", Bambam said. He started to move to go to dinner, but Yugyeom caught him by the arm. Electric shocks went up the place where the taller boy touched him, and he pulled away quickly.

"Uh, sorry", Yugyeom apologized, embarrassed. "Um, I was just wondering when you wanted to meet up?"

"Just right after dinner is fine", Bambam replied. He paused for a second. "Also, wait here for a little bit after I leave."

Yugyeom cocked his head to the side slightly. "Okay? Why?"

God, he was so innocent. "I don't want people to see us walking in together", Bambam replied quickly, running off before Yugyeom could say anything.

"Hi Bam!"

Bambam furrowed his brows, looking up as a familiar Hufflepuff sat down next to him. He gave him a look of disgust.

"Don't call me that."

"Call you what?", Yugyeom asked, genuinely confused. It made sense why he hadn't been chosen for Ravenclaw.

"Bam", Bambam replied, looking back down at his textbook. Yugyeom flushed next to him.

"Oh, uh, sorry."

It was silent for several seconds. Bambam could feel Yugyeom's eyes burning holes into his head as he tried to read, and he groaned in frustration.

"What?"

Yugyeom went wide-eyed, looking down in embarrassment. "N-Nothing."

Bambam rolled his eyes. "Whatever."

"What are you working on?"

"Astronomy homework."

"What's it about?"

"Why do you care?"

Yugyeom gazed at Bambam. The shorter boy glanced at him, raising an eyebrow. "What?"

"You're not very good at being friends", Yugyeom said simply, resting his chin on his hand. Bambam felt his face burn red.

"Good observation, headass", he mumbled, trying to conceal his embarrassment.

Yugyeom simply giggled and Bambam hated him for being able to make such an innocent and adorable sound. Why did this kid have to be the only person at Hogwarts who wanted to be friends with him?

"Oh, I didn't know Jaebum was here."

Bambam twitched an eyebrow up and followed Yugyeom's gaze to an awkward looking boy standing a few feet away. He seemed to be looking for something, glancing down every aisle.

He was wearing red and yellow, signifying him as a Gryffindor, and Bambam vaguely recognized him as the Gryffindor Quidditch captain.

"Do you know him?", Bambam asked. Yugyeom nodded.

"Yeah, he's friends with Jackson. We've hung out a couple times. I'm going to call him over."

"No don't-", Bambam protested but it was too late. Yugyeom had called out the other boy's name and was now waving him over. Bambam felt his face burn again and looked for something to hide behind, but Jaebum was already there, looking confused.

"Hey, Gyeom", he greeted. He glanced at Bambam, raising an eyebrow. "Is that a Slytherin...?"

Yugyeom smiled widely. "Yeah! He's my friend, his name is Bambam."

Jaebum gazed at Bambam unsurely. "Yeah, I know."

Bambam stared at the table, picking at the wood with his nails.

"What're you doing here? I thought you hated the library?", Yugyeom asked. Jaebum blushed, and Bambam's interest piked. He rose an eyebrow at the other boy.

"Were you perhaps looking for something...or someone?", Bambam asked teasingly. Jaebum turned ever more red, avoiding Bambam's questioning gaze.

"N-No! I was just doing some studying", the Gryffindor muttered. Bambam smirked, turning back to his textbook and leaving Yugyeom to take care of it.

"Oh", Yugyeom said. He shot a glance at Bambam, confused about the other boy's question. Then he turned back to Jaebum, smiling sweetly. "Sorry for interrupting."

"It's okay", Jaebum replied, and the two boys said their goodbyes. Yugyeom gave Bambam one more questioning look before starting on his own homework.
