"should this be transposed?" sicheng asked yuta who was sitting beside him, blotting ink in the edge of his notebook as he think.

the study table of sicheng was messy but became more messy as yuta joined him to study.

"that's too basic that i forgot about it" yuta chuckled as he continued to do his english homework.

confused and dumbfounded, he trailed his hands on the book that was filled with unfamiliar words, he stopped and brushed his index finger to a word in the book, "nepenthe?" yuta said in a very bad english accent.

"something that makes you forget grief or suffering" yuta mumbled inaudibly, turning his gaze to sicheng who was still busy in his maths, "nepenthe" he repeated.

"hmm?" sicheng looked at him with his brows furrowed, "did you say something?" he added.

yuta smiled and held sicheng's face, softly brushing his thumb against the younger's soft cheek.

yuta shook his head and sat straight, coughing as he said "nothing, never mind"

sicheng nodded and turned to his book, secretly putting his hand on his chest, silently breathing heavily, trying to act normal.

-

"it's already 11 pm, dong sicheng" yuta eyed sicheng who was still sitting in his study table.

sicheng scoffed as he folded the pink paper he was scribbling on earlier, putting it in between the pages of his math book and afterwards putting the book in his drawer.

he stood up and jumped on his bed, "bed time!" he beamed.

yuta chuckled as he look at sicheng who was enjoying his mattresses and pillows.

"sleep here with me, the bed is big" sicheng sat straight and smiled to yuta, patting the space beside him.

yuta smiled shyly as sicheng struggled to stand up, before making yuta say no he pulled the japanese beside him in bed.

"you're not sicheng aren't you?" yuta said as he playfully tapped the younger's shoulder.

"you're over acting" sicheng chuckled, "i guess i am?" yuta replied, and they both laughed off.

"hyung"

"hmm?"

"the moon is beautiful tonight" sicheng said as he looked at his window near his study table, reflecting the light of the moon as its curtains billow.

yuta was taken aback but then smiled as he replied, "the moon is beautiful indeed"

sicheng rested his head on the bed's headboard, turning to yuta, "what thought bugs you at this time?"

yuta looked at him, probably shocked by the sudden question but then smiled, "what bugs me is how you manage to be super adorable without effort" he chuckled.

sicheng gulped, probably taken aback as his face turn a deep shade of red, he took a deep breath after getting back to his senses.

"what about you? what thoughts bugs you at this time?" yuta asked as he pinched sicheng's cheek lightly and chuckled.

the younger coughed, "weird things bug me, hyung"

"what weird things?" the latter asked.

"weird things, like how we are all marching forward an inescapable death and how we're all born even if our lives are bound to end" sicheng chuckled, it was weird.

the cold breeze and the calm atmosphere was soporific which made both of them indulge to sleep.

yuta woke up and slowly sat up straight, careful not to wake up sicheng who was peacefully sleeping

he opened his phone, seeing it was 6 am already, furrowing his eyebrows as he saw a message received at 2 AM.

chengieee

yuta smiled as he glanced to the sleeping figure of the younger.

-

going home peacefully as the cold breeze touches his skin, he smiled as he looked at the letter once more, "how can he be super adorable"
