Drabble Collection #2

Kim Jongin || EXO, SuperM || Camboy!AU

Jongin sighs, "why do you want me to do this?" He runs a hand through his hair, messing it up more before letting out a yawn. "Out of everyone who could do this, why do you need me?"

Yes, why did you need Jongin, your lazy, nearly always half-asleep lab partner to fake being your boyfriend. You had many different people to choose from and yet, you chose him. "I...Look, you are a safe option." Jongin raises his eyebrow and you sigh, "my ex doesn't live around here so she won't suspect a thing or know any better." You worry your bottom lip as you wait for him to give your answer.

Shrugging, Jongin yawns and stretches out on his bed. "Sure." He answers, putting his arms behind his head and using them as pillows. "Though, if I do this - there's something I want from you."

"Anything!" You answer before thinking about what he could ask.

Chuckling, Jongin sits up and seems to have this completely different aura about him. A few minutes ago, he was complaining about not getting enough sleep - though, it's nearly evening - and being tired but now, he's wide awake and looking at you with this hunger in his eyes. "Well, baby, lead the way."

You drive both of you to the diner that you had agreed to meet your ex and to say your heart isn't racing is a complete lie. Jongin dressed to impress, his white button down shirt has the top three buttons undone, his silver hair styled in a comma-style and his black slacks make him look like a model rather than a college student.

"You have got to be fucking with me." This is what you are met with when you walk into the diner with Jongin's arm wrapped over your shoulder and him smiling down at you like a doting boyfriend. He doesn't break character, cocking an eyebrow in the direction of the voice while you feel your mouth run dry as you see the look of complete disbelief on your ex's face. "You're dating him?"

The way she says it, makes it sound like she knows who Jongin is - but that's impossible. "Wha-"

"Do you know who he is, what he does?" She meets you halfway and looks between you and Jongin, clearly judging you which does irk you a little. "You cannot be serious, right?"

"This is my boyfr-"

"No, this is the camboy, Kai." Her words throw you off and you take a step back to look at Jongin, who still is playing the part you gave him. "You seriously didn't know?" Shaking your head, your ex scoffs, shaking her head in disbelief at you. "Really, Y/N, you are so thick sometimes. He's on all the college boy sites, how can you not know?"

You're far too shocked to answer so Jongin decides to answer for you. "She's too kind to judge someone that's why. She constantly looks pissed off because I'm always tired and falling asleep during class which means she writes my notes for me. She could let me fail and yet, she offers her spare time to help me and doesn't act all high and fucken mighty about it." His nostrils are flaring and you only now notice that his fists are clenched, "how about you stop acting like you're better than me, or her for that fact. If you know who I am, then it's clear what you do in your spare time... right?"

Not allowing her to respond, Jongin grabs your hand and drags you outside, storming back towards the safety of your car where he allows himself to take a deep breath and relax. "I'm sorry." He breaths out.

"Thank you," you respond, shocking him with how quiet your voice is. "Thank you for sticking up for me. I haven't seen her in so long and just let her walk all over me again."

Jongin places a large hand on top of your head and smiles brightly at you, looking more like himself. "You know how I said that I wanted something in return for doing this?" You nod and Jongin puts on his seatbelt, "well, I want to take you out for dinner and we'll forget this happened, yeah?"

You agree but you know that curiosity will get the better of you.
