haechan tried hours and hours to try and fall asleep but his efforts did not avail. he was on the verge of tears because he truly wanted to fall asleep. saying that his sleeping schedule was a mess felt a whole lot wrong because he never had one to begin with. he laid on the bed with his eyes shut last 9pm, his head filled with his never-ending thoughts.

if he can't sleep, then he won't force himself to. he checked his phone and saw that it's already 2am. he still had 5 hours before readying himself for school. what can he do to make himself sleepy?

he closed his eyes and started thinking.

read

haechan thought of a brilliant idea. all he needs to do is read a paragraph from one of his school books, this will definitely bore him and would most likely send him to sleep. he left his bed to grab his bookbag on his desk, he held a book without looking what subject it is. he jumped on his bed with the book in hand.

after reading the first sentence that made no sense in his head, he closed the book.

"maybe mark is awake," he thought.

he left his bed and let his feet take him to mark's door.

knock

"mark?" donghyuck knocked.

"come in," answered mark, surprising haechan. he never thought the brunette was awake as well.

the tan male twisted the knob and entered mark's room. the latter was too focused on the laptop screen in front of him, his hands on the keyboard. he seems to be typing something on it.

"why are you awake?" asked the younger, sitting in front of mark's laptop. his eyes could not get off of the beautiful person in front of him.

"doing the report mr. kang asked me to do," mark said, still fixated on the laptop.

haechan could see restlessness in mark's face. he doesn't want mark to overwork himself. the younger closed the laptop and saw the confused look on mark's face.

"It's due on the last day of school and you're here staying up late trying to finish it," haechan said as he placed the laptop on mark's desk before sitting back on his previous position.

"what about you, why aren't you asleep?" mark asked, laying his back on the duvet.

"i just couldn't," haechan shrugged.
