I rolled over in bed restlessly, my hand aimlessly roaming the empty side of my bed to find my phone, ready to scream at anyone that was going out of their way to text me when they know that I'm sleeping. Everyone knew that I was in bed by nine every night and that I'm on Do Not Disturb mode by nine thirty.

u awake??

I squinted tiredly at Donghyuck's message, half tempted to just go back to sleep and pretend that I hadn't received it at all, but decided against it. I swiped my thumb across the screen, propping myself up on my elbows as I attempted to text the male back, typing and retyping my message due to my vision still being blurred from having just woken up.

donghyuck is videocalling...


I could practically feel anxiety wash over me as my phone rang quietly into the silent air of my bedroom. I sucked in a deep breath, pushing myself out of bed, flinging my comforter off of my body as I tip toed to my door, cracking it slightly to peer down my hall, letting out a breath of relief when I saw that my parent's were still peacefully sleeping in their bed and not ready to grab the first shoe to beat me with for being so loud so late at night.

I closed the door again softly, rolling my eyes in annoyance as I finally answered Donghyuck's call, slightly uncomfortable with the idea of video calling him. I never voluntarily video called anyone, and would often decline Haneul's when her name popped up across my screen, which was more often than I had cared to pay attention to.

"What do you want?" I hissed in a whisper, glaring harshly at Donghyuck's image on my phone screen, turning on my desk lamp as I plopped down on my bed once again. Donghyuck grinned at me, his eyes drooping tiredly, fingers visibly fiddling with the strings of the hoodie he wore. "Are you high right now?"

"Only a little," he shrugged innocently, pouting back at me and I sighed, leaning back against my pillows. Donghyuck went silent for a few moments, eyes slowly narrowing the longer he stared at me.

"What?" I snapped, suddenly getting annoyed with his staring, but he remained unphased, staring back at me as if I hadn't spoken at all.

"Is that my shirt?" He asked me, suddenly shifting to sit up properly, holding his phone at a slight downward angle, making his face look rounder than normal. I looked down at my shirt, realizing that it was the shirt that Donghyuck had leant me awhile ago.
