Arriving back to my dorm after my last class of the day, I flopped onto my bed, my eyes tracing the imaginary patterns on the plain ceiling. I heaved out a sigh, fishing my phone out of my pocket.

I lifted myself from my reclined position, taking a quick glance at the faded ink written across my hand.

I entered the number in and decided to send a message.

Me: hey Jaemin
delivered 7:48pm

Me: it's Jeno
delivered 7:48pm

Switching the device off, I lifted myself from my bed and started to do my homework, knowing if he didn't reply immediately, I would see him tonight anyways.

"Jaemin?"

The male's eyes lifted to meet mine.

"Did you get my text message?" my teeth sunk into my bottom lip nervously.

He blinked a few times, furrowing his eyebrows. "I haven't checked my phone, sorry." he mumbled, his eyes drifting towards the counter.

"It's okay." I replied, giving him the mixture of nickels and dimes that consisted of his change.

"I'll make sure to check it though." he said a little louder, determination threaded through his voice.

I smiled at his response. "I'll be waiting."

His lips curled up into his stunning smile, showing his perfect set of white teeth, before turning away and exiting the mart.
