Snacks pt.1

--- Jeongin ---

*beep* *beep* *beep*

"5 more minutes..." Jeongin groaned as his alarm woke him up at exactly 6:00 in the morning. School was over, so he wasn't necessarily required to wake up this early anymore, but he chose to anyways, for the sake of routine. Today was the first Friday of summer vacation, after a long freshman year. Looking back on it, Jeongin thought that he had a good time, but overall it was just too much work for his liking.

Jeongin rolled onto his side to grab his phone off his night stand, which he glanced at only to find no new notifications.

The hyungs must still be asleep , he thought as he was re-reading their messages from last night. He, Seungmin, Chan, and Woojin had agreed to meet at the beach that afternoon, to celebrate the two oldest's graduation and to kick off the best summer yet. Jeongin hd only met the other three boys this last school year after transferring from another school district, but they were his closest friends. All four had shared drama class, which was where they met. Jeongin had never been very good at making friends, what with moving around a lot for his parents' work as a kid and his timid personality, so he was glad his hyungs had taken them under their wings. He had no idea where he would be without them. Now if he could only find himself a boyfriend...

*DING*

A sudden noise interrupted Jeongin's train of thought. It was a text from Seungmin.

seungie: Hey nini, you awake yet?

innie: you know I am, what's up?

seungie: I just woke up, how are you?

innie: I'm doing just fine, how about you?

seungie: I'm good as well. You ready for the beach this afternoon?

innie: heck yeah I am! I've had my bag packed since last night. I am kinda sad that Woojin-hyung and Channie-hyung are leaving soon though.

seungie: Yeah... me too. But this is gonna be the most fun summer ever to make up for it!

innie: yeah!

seungie: Hey, speaking of which, do you wanna come over and hang out before we head over to the beach? I'm bored :(

innie: sure! I'll be there in a few.

Jeongin rolled out of bed and checked the time on his phone. It was already 7:00. I guess I was awake for a while, he thought as he got dressed. He grabbed his bag, unplugged his phone, and walked down the stairs into the kitchen. There, he grabbed a granola bar for a quick breakfast, and wrote a note telling his parents where he would be. Not that they were around much anyways, with work and all. He left the note on the counter, and with that, he walked out the door, headed to Seungmin's house.

Seungmin only lived a block away from Jeongin, which is part of why they became such good friends. Seongmin always helped the younger in math though the school year, and Jeongin returned the favor by helping the older with history. They proximity of their houses aided their little tutoring program, and they quickly grew to become close friends. Jeongin would always rant to Seungmin about his boy troubles, and the older would rant back about his brother. Soon enough Seungmin introduced Jeongin to Chan and Woojin, and the four of them became inseparable.

It only took a few minutes for Jeongin to reach Seungmin's doorstep. Right when Jeongin was about to ring the doorbell, Seungmin opened the door with a wide smile.
