incoming call from "miar:

accept | decline

"jaehyun?" i called out softly, speaking into the microphone attatchement of my earbuds.

"minjae?" jaehyun replied groggily.

i giggled silently after hearing his husky voice, trying not to weird him out.

"this is weird." i stated, smiling from ear to ear as i spoke. i wondered if he was smiling too.

"it sure is," jaehyun replied with his beautiful voice.

after a moment of comforting silence i spoke again.

"jaehyun?"

"yes minjae?" jaehyun asked, smiling on the other side of the line.

"will i ever get to meet you in person?" i asked him hopefully.

"someday." jaehyun replied quietly.

i smiled.

that "someday" was all i needed to finally relax and close my eyes, falling asleep on my bathroom floor where i had been puking into the toilet a mere thirty minutes ago.

jaehyun's point of view

i could hear minjae snoring on the other end of the phone call and i smiled.

"jaehyun what are you doing up so late?" a squinty eyed taeyong asked me as he looked at me from his bed.

another small snore came from my phone and i hung up, not wanting taeyong to grow suspicious of me.

"just talking to someone that means a lot to me." i replied as i thought about minjae.

"i'm flattered but seriously what were you doing?" taeyong gushed.

i rolled my eyes at him and forced back a chuckle.

"it doesn't matter, just go back to bed."

"okay fine." taeyong grumbled as he laid back down in his bed and closed his eyes.

i turned my phone off and placed it next to me on my bed, minjae and i's conversation repeating in my mind.

"will i ever get to meet you in person?"

"someday."
