"is she crazy? why would someone go out to check about the noise she heard instead of sleeping?"

"She didn't want to die, Jaemin"

"yeah but--ugh women"

"you say that as if you wouldn't do that same" In Na says, casually throwing popcorn at him.

Honestly, it was supposed to be a nice day, they were going to watch movies and just have fun, but then it's been bothering her, why she was not his 'type'

She didn't mean to, but she overheard when she came, and she suddenly felt all too dejected later and lost all the excitement she had.

and she was too nervous to confront him, but In Na wasn't the type to bottle up feelings much like everyone else she knew.

"so.."

Jaemin looked at her, anticipating her next words.

"why am i, um, not your type?" she asks, fiddling with her fingers.

Unknown feeling spread in jaemin's gut, he didn't like that.

"Oh, you--"

"I didn't mean to, I was just there" she adds, before he gets any wrong idea.

"Oh yeah, it's just, um, you're a little clingy, like the cute but annoying types, I like laid back and calm girls, you're the opposite"

In Na's heart clenched, he indirectly called her annoying and clingy, right?

"Oh"

"Not like I mind or anything" he adds quickly.

"Yeah, I guess I am" In Na laughs it off, honestly she didn't know what she was expecting, and now she's the one hurt.

the dreamies and the girls became really nice friends over the time, but she did take a slight higher percentage of liking towards jaemin, she didn't think she'd be 'annoying' or 'clingy' types.

"I have to go now, actually" she says, slowly moving the blanket, she was sharing with jaemin.

"but we're on for two more movies though" Jaemin says, innocently pointing towards the television

"Sorry!" she says, walking out the door.

just as she walked out, jeno comes out of the kitchen, smacking Jaemin's head.

"Ow,what--"

"are you fucking dense??" Jeno whisper shouts, walking out the door without further explanation.

Jaemin was confused, very confused.

-

"Sumi why are you so mean to me?" Hyuck pouts, shaking her vigorously.

"Donghyuck! I am not mean to you"Sumi says, stopping him from shaking her so much.

"then why wont you help me study?"

"I can't do algebra for shit baby" she says, mocking his pout.

the pet names were a joke, they established that,yet Hyuck allowed his heart to flutter.

"Please help, I promise i wont disturb you" he says.

"are you sure?" Sumi asks, considering it, just so he could shut up.

and he nods vigorously, sighing, she finally agrees.

Only fifteen minutes in, both Sumi and Hyuck wheezed their lungs out, Hyuck decided watching a video of a chicken running for their life seemed appropriate.

slowly dragging Sumi too.

"we had to study!!" Sumi said but immediately started laughing the next second.

"y-yeah w-we were supposed to" Hyuck says, falling on to the ground.

Sumi lies down too, right next to him.

so there they were, laughing to their hearts extent, next to each other.

-

Jeno sat in the late night silence of the lobby, he patiently waited for Ae Ra to come back.

today she would find out whether she got in or not, and more than her, jeno was much more excited, he knew she was going to get in.

it had been an hour since he waited, he was starting to get bored.

'why am I, even waiting for her'

'what is wrong with me?'

'jeno, you're so stupid'

Jeno got up,starting to walk away, just when the lobby door opened to which he turned around to see Ae Ra, quite drained.

"Hi! Ae Ra!"

Ae Ra takes a second and looks up to him, honestly done with everything.

"leave me alone, Jeno" she says, voice cracking.

"But--"

"Jeno please, leave me, alone" she says, quickly walking, she had held it in for so long, her legs hurt, her self esteem hurt and her head, the most. it was pounding. 

Jeno, before she could walk away, walked in front of her, he wraps his arms around Ae Ra, and she just stayed, her temple in contact with his chest, he places his hand on her head, tapping it lightly.

Ae Ra felt comfort in that moment, she felt safe, so there were the tears, rolling down her cheeks and on to the fabric of his shirt. 

'she did not get in'
