BLACK | jung jaehyun [on hold]

seventeen

"who's sleeping in your bed?"

jiyeon asks when she arrived at the dorm.

i walk into my room and jaehyun is still sound asleep.

she looks at jaehyun's bare back and then to me.

it was clear what she was thinking.

"did you two—"

"no! we did not. he was supposed to be gone by now."

i say, picking up his black tee shirt from the ground and set it on my desk.

"boys aren't allowed here. remember?"

she points out and i roll my eyes.

"obviously, but it's practically night and if the dorm lady sees then we'll be in trouble."

i say.

jiyeon nods.

"i see. so you're going to sleep with him?"

she asks, nonchalant but curious.

"no, not like that! i'll just take the couch."

i point out, hitting her playfully.

she looks at him and grins.

"then can i sleep with him?"

"what?!"

i shout and jiyeon's practically deaf by now.

"relax, i was joking.. but he's cute, too."

she says with a snicker.

she really is a party animal.

"you have a boyfriend."

i defend, sitting on the bed beside where jaehyun was laying.

jiyeon raises her eyebrows at me and smirks.

"so do you but.. are you having a love affair?"

she questions, intrigued at the idea.

i shake my head disappointingly as jaehyun sits up from my bed, roughly scaring the wits out of me.

"woah, he's alive."

jiyeon tunes, laughing as he smiles at me, his cheeks causing his eyes to smile, too.

"hi."

he says and i deadpan.

what is happening with him?

did i break him?

"hi.."

i say back and he pinches my cheek with his finger.

"you're supposed to say 'wow, oppa? you're awake?' but like okay, whatever."

jaehyun corrects and we're all silent until jiyeon clears her throat.

"i'm kang jiyeon, her roommate and classmate of middle school through now."
