imagination [ nomin ]

imagine III

it is already two hours past school hour, but jeno is still calmly sitting by the bench by the basketball court, doing his calculus. he is so into the homework, until he heard his name being called from far by someone.

"jeno!" he whips his head to the direction of the voice and his eyes immediately widen. 

"y-yes jae-jaem?" fuck why am i even stuttering.

"wanna join us?" jeno was taken aback. why would jaemin ask him to join? wait, no. why is jaemin even talking to him in the first place? jeno's brain can't even function properly at that time, so his response came out very unexpected.

"no, i want to become smarter and study."

"oh is it? okay then.." he watches jaemin walk away from him. jeno slams his forehead on a table with a thud. what if jaemin actually thought jeno was showing off and is saying jaemin's dumb?

"god jeno you're so stupid."

jeno lifts up his head and pouts for a bit. "well, might as well just complete these." jeno lifts his pen and starts to move it throughout the paper, occasionally stealing glances towards jaemin, and his imagination runs wild again.

"jeno, wanna play basketball?" jaemin asks, again (?). jeno shakes his head. "nope, i'm doing calculus." "oh."

and so jaemin went to play basketball meanwhile jeno continues doing his calculus, sometimes glancing at jaemin who seems to be very focused on his game.

it was a lie tho .

jaemin would glance a few times at jeno, a small smile tugging on his lips. the way jeno would frown, the way jeno bit the end of his pen, the way jeno seems to groan in frustration. 

so, now, jeno swears he could die because of the too close distance of him and jaemin who is sitting in front of him right now. jaemin insisted to play only two games, and help jeno with his calculus.

"okay so you just add this with this and you would get the answer." jaemin explained and jeno nodded eventhough he doesn't understand it at all.

"you didn't understand it right?" "yup." jaemin chuckled. "god, you're cute."

jeno's very sure his face would be as red as fire.
