"can i sit here?" an unfamiliar voice spoke, pointing at the empty seat beside mark, in front of haeyoung. another school day, and it was currently their break. like usual, the six were at their usual seats.

"uh-" jeno uttered with a perplexed look on his face, as if he wasn't sure if he could make the right decision. but before he could even continue, jaemin cut him off. "sure!"

the five others gave each other looks, but didn't make a big deal out of it.

"guys, this is hyora, the new student council i'm guiding." jaemin introduced. "that's jeno, mark, renjun, haechan, and haeyoung," he continued. it looked like he wanted to add on something after mentioning haeyoung's name, but he didn't.

the five greeted hyora back and chatted with her for some time before heading to their next class. on the way back, haeyoung was distracted by the strings of her hoodie. she was playing with them and swinging them around, causing her to not hear jisung and chenle greeting them.

"haeyoung! can't you hear us?" jisung frowned, waving his hands in front of her face.

"haeyoung to earth, earth to haeyoung?" chenle drawled and back hugged haeyoung, causing her jolt in shock and bring her back to present reality after zoning out.

"oh, jisung and chenle! sorry, i was distracted. you know how i get distracted easily," haeyoung smiled sheepishly.

chenle shook his head while sighing and placed his head on her shoulders, taking out a piece of candy from his pocket and passing it to haeyoung. "that's for you to work hard and never give up. you're my favourite out everyone in this friend group." he smiled and hugged haeyoung tighter. haeyoung smiled and squeezed his hands.

"hey! we can hear you, you know," haechan scoffed and faked a cry, jeno and renjun joining him.

"hey! whose girlfriend are you?" jaemin scoffed in jealously.

haeyoung only stuck her tongue out.

"thank you lele. i hope that you'll continue to work hard too. we've got to go to class now, see you later!" haeyoung broke off the hug and patted his head, waving a goodbye to the younger boys before heading back into class with the rest of them.

"the outright favoritism is unfair!" mark pouted.

"sucks to be all of you then." haeyoung teased.
