12:47 pm

     i yawned and stretched my limbs out as i sluggishly began to wake up. it happened to be a friday and luckily i didn't have classes today, meaning i could wake up at whatever time i pleased.

     i rolled over and noticed that jaemin wasn't laying in his bed. i was a bit curious as to where he could be, but i tried not to care too much. i looked over to my alarm clock and checked the time. it was close to 1:00, meaning i had slept through lunch hour.

i sighed and grabbed my phone. there was about twenty missed calls from jiwon, which just made me giggle. i rarely ever missed my meals, so i knew that she was probably worried. i decided to text her to let her know why i hadn't made it down to the dining hall.

jiwon-ie 👯‍♀️❤️

i rolled my eyes at our messages and frowned. i hated lying to my best friend, but at the same time i didn't know what to say. i didn't even understand my own feelings. how was i supposed to explain them to someone else?

     i was about to get out of bed when suddenly the door to the bathroom swung open and jaemin walked out, shirtless, with just a towel wrapped his waist.

i blushed madly and widened my eyes. he had an attractive, muscular body with a clearly defined six pack. he was drying his hair with another towel when he noticed me staring.

"like what you see?" jaemin grinned.

i didn't reply. instead, i covered my face with a pillow and shouted, "pabo! get a shirt on!"

i heard him chuckle and it was a few minutes before he spoke again. "alright, you're good now," jaemin informed me.

not completely trusting him, i peeked with one eye from behind my pillow and was relieved to see his body fully clothed. i sighed and brought the pillow down from my face.

     "usually people come out of the bathroom with clothes on," i remarked sassily.

     "ahh stop complaining. do you know how many girls would die to see my abs?" jaemin smirked.

"then go walk around shirtless in front of them! i don't want to see it," i sneered and crossed my arms.

     the boy laughed while rolling up the sleeves to his hoodie and flicking his hair back, "keep telling yourself that."

     i furrowed my brows and shook my head. my eyes followed jaemin to his desk where he sat down and started to write. he was concentrating hard and wore a serious look on his face. i lightly smiled and continued to lay in bed, just admiring his features.

     jaemin bit his lip in confusion and placed his hands behind his head. damn he's attractive, i thought to myself. he suddenly turned to face me, looking me right in the eye and grinning. i quickly spun my head around and closed my eyes, pretending i was asleep.

"you sure love to stare," jaemin commented with a tad bit of amusement in his tone.

i coughed and i felt my face grow warm. "whatever, i'm getting up," i told him, tilting my head downwards so he wasn't able to see my red cheeks.

     i rose to my feet and walked over to my backpack, which was laying at the end of my bed. my hands roamed the insides of the bag before i found my weekend homework.

     i took a seat at my desk, which was unfortunately placed next to jaemin's. i didn't even steal a glance at him. instead, i ignored the boy and tried my best to keep focused on my work.

     my self study time was cut short though, as i was abruptly interrupted by jaemin sitting on my desk and smiling down at me.

     "what do you want?" i asked him and frowned.

     "don't look so upset," jaemin mocked me. i just looked up to him with tired eyes. "i was wondering if you wanted to come with me to a party tomorrow night," he finished.

a shocked expression appeared on my face and jaemin laughed when he noticed this.

"i... i have to study," i informed him while clearing my throat. i picked up my pencil and started to write again.

the boy promptly stole the pencil from my hand and held it up to his face. "oh come on, you can skip studying for one night," jaemin said before pressing his lips into a fine line.

i thought about his offer once more before reluctantly agreeing to it. i didn't really want to go, but i did want jaemin to leave me alone. "fine i'll go, but on one condition," i sternly stated.

jaemin rolled his eyes. "and what would that be?" he asked me and brought his face closer to mine.

"you... you have to buy me ice cream everyday during lunch for the next week!" i told him with crossed arms.

jaemin chuckled and ruffled my hair, making my heart race. "if that's so, you better come with me to that party," he exclaimed while hopping off my desk and walking away.

i thought for a second while biting my lip. "wait!" i voiced out.

jaemin turned around and raised a brow.

"pinky promise?" i asked him before holding my pinky out.

the boy sauntered up to me and joined his finger with mine. "you're a dork," jaemin muttered. "pinky promise."
