every day, jeongguk goes to the same cafe to study for his upcoming exams and every day, the same person sits next to him and orders the same thing, pancakes.
jeongguk let out a deep breath once he heard the door closed. his whole body was shaking as he tried to unlock the cubical door.
it took the boy a few tries before he successfully unlocked the door. his shaking fingers could hardly hold onto the cool, metal latch.
the clock above the bathroom mirror read five past ten, meaning he had five minutes to get out of the building before a majority of the classes would be finished.
with a deep breath, jeongguk opened the large bathroom door and walked out. he could feel the warm, humid air that filled the brick building. he needed to leave.
his thoughts raced as he ran down the stairs. the boy's backpack moved constantly as he spun around corners.
why did he think it'd be okay to go on campus? why did he let everyone see his fat, ugly self? now everyone would gossip about him and no one would like him anymore, not even taehyung.
and then he had to trip over his own two feet.

hoseok looked up at the staircase with a puzzled look on his face. none of the rooms looked big enough to be a dance studio but nayeon had said to go to block b...or was it block ab?
amongst all the confusion, hoseok didn't see the boy that was whizzing down the stairs, nor did he see him fall until...
the older boy looked up from his phone just when the younger boy fell onto him. the brown haired boy and hoseok made eye contact for a silent yet long two seconds.
"hey do you know if-"
but the boy ran out the door before hoseok could continue.
