"Jeno, is that your boyfriend?", asked my aunt when she looked up from the street to shoot a glance at my phone.
I giggled, "Something like that."

I quickly turned my phone off before she could see more than she had already seen and pointed on the street with my finger.
"I feel honored that my phone is interesting enough to get your attention, but the street is where it should be."

I looked into the side-view mirror and saw that Haechan giggled as well, clearly knowing who my "boyfriend or something like that" was. When we noticed that we both had problems to suppress our giggle, we both bursted out laughing.

"Oh my god, boys, I need to concentrate on the traffic. Be quiet."
Winwin and I had the same thing on our minds and shouted "BE QUIET" together as loud as we could.
My aunt just rolled her eyes and sighed, knowing that it would be no use to yell at us.

We quickly jumped out of the car when we reached the parking lot of our high school.
"Have a great day, boys", said my aunt and leaned over my seat to look at me.

I only leaned against the door and shook my head at her dramatically. "I'm sorry, ma'am, but great days don't exist in this life span. But thanks anyway."
"Oh my god, Jeno, you are such a dramaqueen! You will survive it. I did as well. Bye boys!", she laughed and I closed the door.

Haechan hit my arm when we entered the school.
"Dude, you always need to be so dramatic."
I stopped in my tracks, turned my head to the ceiling and placed my hand on my heart.

"Being dramatic is what makes our life more exiting. People rant to have a good talk. They badmouth because they want to get attention. Being dramatic can change things. It's the only thing that makes life worth living. Besides Jaemin. Hehe."
I continued walking and squealed.
"He is the best thing that happened to my life.", I hummed.

"I almost wanted to praise you for criticizing our society but you just had to bring up Jaemin."
Chan shook is head and sighed, putting his arm on my shoulder casually.
"I always must bring up Jaemin! What would I be without Jaemin?", I look at him with a questioning face.

"A High schooler without an obsession and a regular gay.", he looked ahead and manoeuvred us through the mass of students which scurried through the hallway, on their way to their lockers or classrooms.
"Regular, huh? That's not my style. I like it extra. " I shrugged my shoulders.
"I've known. That's why we are friends. It at least doesn't get boring around you.", he grinned.

"Wooow, I have the honor to hear a rare compliment of the great Lee Donghyuck! What a morning!"  I opened my mouth in amazement and covered it with my hand. With  my eyes wide open, I stared at him.
He looked at me in disgust.
"Uhm, never mind what I just said."
._. "I can't unmind it. You got my hopes up."
"Get them back down then."
"You are always so mean to me.", I whined.
"You just aren't a person you could be nice to."

I sighed."okayyy, soo, now that we talked about this: let's talk about the real joy of life: Did you watch the new MV? Did youuuuu?" I grabbed his amr and shook his whole body like an insane.
"I DID! MARKSS CUTE SMILE WRECKED ME!" He jumped around like a little kid that turns one year older while talking about Mark.
"HE WAS SPITTING FIRE! BUT JAEMIN.... UGH, HE ALWAYS HITS MY FEELS. DID U HEAR HIS RAP?? THIS WERE THE BEST SECONDS OF MY LIFE." I exhaled with a dreaming face.

"That's what you always say when you hear Jaemin's lines...", he laughed and shot a glance at his watch, "I wish we could talk more but I guess we have to separate here. I have biology lessons next, soooo, let's talk later?"
"Aww, I can't wait to fanboy more about Jaemin! Bye bye, Thonghyuck~"
"Stop calling me that, Nojam!" He shouted and looked at me badly.
"I will think about it when you start to  be nice to me."
"Keep doing it then. Bye Bitch."
He formed a heart with his hands and then ran away with a grin on his face.

I giggled but then looked at my watch as well. With absolutely no motivation at all and a big fat sigh, I made my way to my classroom to waste another day of my life thinking about when I will be able to watch another Jaemin video.
