POV: Donghyuck

Jaemin swings his arm around me and looks at me with an evil grin

Jaemin swings his arm around me and looks at me with an evil grin. "So, did you enjoy your visit at the house?"

"It's way too early for your crap." I shove him off of me and make my way towards the entrance. I'm always the first one to arrive at uni, and me, Jaemin & Renjun meet up before going to our classes. This time, Renjun texted us and said he's gonna be late though.

"Hold on!" Jaemin quickens his pace to catch up with me.

He's still seemingly expecting an answer to his stupid question as he's walking beside me, so I roll my eyes. "I didn't enjoy my visit, but it wasn't all that bad. It was alright." I notice someone familiar and stop. Wait, that's Yerim, right? She's chatting with some other girl on a bench under our uni's popular cherry blossom tree. To be frank, it looks really beautiful in spring. A few months ago, Renjun and Jaemin forced me to take pictures of them posing in front of it. They might have taken some of me too though...

"What's wrong?" Jaemin tilts his head to see what I'm staring at. He sighs, in some "Oh, i get it" or a "That's understandable"  kind of way. I turn my head to face him and ask, "Do you know them?"

"Of course I do," he frowns. "They're best friends, Kim Yerim and Park Sooyoung. Who here doesn't know them?"

"What? But we have so many students here. How-"

"Seriously, Donghyuck? Have you been living under a rock? They're really famous on social media. Yerim does that "lost places" thingy and Sooyoung is a whole celebrity."

My eyes widen. I feel pretty old. How come I've never heard of them before?

"Well.. that girl Yerim visited the haunted house as well. We talked and.. all that," I tell him, and he seems impressed.
I'm still pretty bewildered - maybe I have, in fact, been living under a rock.
"Really? Congrats, buddy!" Jaemin pats me on the back HARD and I playfully punch him in the shoulder in response. "What for?"

"She and her friend are pretty, cute, funny, everything." He moves closer and lowers his voice. "Hey, if you and Yerim get closer, can you set me up with Sooyoung?"

I click my tongue at this and flick his forehead. "Ow!"

"Can you stop being a fucking dumbass for one second!?"

Renjun suddenly appears right next to us and sighs in disappointment.
"What are you guys arguing about again?" Jaemin glances at me.
"Ah, whatever." I glance right back. "Let's just head in."

I step forward, open the glass door and motion for them to start walking. Jaemin and Renjun enter the building; I take a last look at Yerim, and she's actually smiling at me & waving. Before I follow after my friends, I smile and wave back.
