Hellebore || JaeSung

Odd In Orange

After breakfast, Jaemin started his journey to his classroom, his Messenger bag weighing down his shoulder causing its strap to form a noticeable indentation in his shoulder.

After two minutes of walking, Jaemin switched shoulders, allowing his left one to rest a bit.

He continued this endless cycle of shifting about until someone took the bag for him.

Jaemin glanced over, looking up at the boy who'd taken his bag, smiling when he seen Jisung staring back down at him.

"Thanks, Jisung! That bag is really heavy," Jisung laughed "You just carry too much stuff! What do you even have in this thing anyway?" Jaemin listed off a few things he carried, suddenly remembering the Pumpkin mochi in his bag. "Oh! I have your treats! It's on the left side in a clear box if you wanted to grab it now"

Jisung opened the bag., quickly locating the package wrapped in orange fairy film, took two of the buns out and handed one to Jaemin.

"Hm," Jisung attempted to get Jaemin's attention, waving the pumpkin near his face, crinkling its wrapper slightly.

Jaemin took the pumpkin, his smile growing wider. "Thanks! I didn't really get to taste test since Donghyuck and Yangyang decided to raid the batch before I could get one." He fake sighed, knowing Yangyang's sweet tooth was a force to be reckoned with.

"Can't say I'm surprised, he steals my sweets every so often." Jaemin made a mental note to cut off Yangyang's sweet allowance for the year.

Jaemin, per usual, took notice of Jisung's outfit and couldn't say it was a favorite of his. The orange jumper he picked out wasnt exactly something that went well with his light brown hair, and paired with his white pants, it made him look more like a traffic cone than a teenager.

"Jesus H. Christ, Park Jisung," he whined. "Tomorrow I'm gonna pick out your outfit for you, this is a disaster, you should be ashamed." He tutted, shaking his head.

"Sweetie, Orange is not your colour." Jisung took off his sweater, stealing the one Jaemin had wrapped around his waist.

"Then, I'll wear your brown sweater. Orange suits you better." This simple sentence sent Jaemin into gay panic, a feeling he's only ever caused, not experienced.

For the remainder of the day, Jaemin enjoyed the soft, soothing scent that was laced through the pullover.

Jaemin finally got to work on his newest note.

"Guess who's back. Back again.

Yeah, I couldn't think of anything creative to say. Just here to say you shouldn't wear orange and white together again. You looked like a damn candy corn some kid unfortunately dropped in the hallway. But hey, it's all good.

So, did you ask out your crush yet? Am I finally gonna get to plan a wedding that succeeds? Last time didn't work out too well, Chenle and the pidgeon got divorced an hour later. Anyways, if you haven't yet, don't. You should still see if they like you or not. I'm gonna get back to my homework before it topples over due to my immense procrastination.

-S.B.

Jaemin folded the orange note in half and got to work on a new orange dream bar recipe("the last one was say too sweet", YangYang lamented)
