sunwoo walked into his apartment, out of breath because he had walked so fast that he was almost running all the way from the train station.

he quickly spammed eric with texts about what had just happened and how frustrated and annoyed he was and how he couldn't even go anywhere else away from chanhee since the train was so packed. then he walked into his bedroom and just threw himself on the bed, face down. without even making an effort to take his bag off.

he groaned into his pillow and threw a mini tantrum that lasted only a few seconds. he quickly recollected himself and got up, tossing his bag on the floor next to the foot of the bed. he went to take a quick shower before he could change into his everyday clothes.

the rest of his evening was spent in him doing his homework and eating what was left in his fridge because there wasn't much left and he was hungry so he had to eat it so it wouldn't go bad.

before he knew it, it was two in the morning and sunwoo had just finished doing his homework. he was once again hungry but he knew there was nothing left in the fridge. he couldn't just go to bed hungry so he had to go to the nearest supermarket.

nearest supermarket that worked at night too, of course. which wasn't that near. all the convenience stores near his apartment complex didn't happen to be from the ones that worked 24/7.

he walked around five minutes until he reached the supermarket. he used being there as an opportunity to do the grocery shopping he needed to do either way. while he was just calmly picking up vegetables he needed for cooking, he heard someone else walking into the supermarket. he wondered what kind of a weirdo besides him would be awake at 2am and go to the supermarket but when he turned around and saw it was chanhee he was very obviously not very excited to find out.

"oh come on," chanhee said with a defeated expression the moment he also saw sunwoo. obviously, the feeling was more than mutual. "why are you literally everywhere?!"

sunwoo once again decided not to say anything at all to him. he just rolled his eyes before turning his back on him and continuing with his grocery shopping.

although chanhee tried to walk up to him a few times and talk to him, sunwoo just ignored these attempts and when he was done and took everything he needed, he went up to the cash register to pay for his things.

he didn't waste much time after paying and putting everything in a shopping bag. he went out of the supermarket and headed back home.

at times he felt like he could hear someone else's steps besides his own, which was just him being paranoid but he still looked back a few times just to make sure that it wasn't chanhee suddenly deciding to follow him to his house.

he could only hope the older wasn't like that and it was just a coincidence they were ending up at the same place so often. after all, chanhee had the absolute same reaction that sunwoo did when he saw him in the supermarket.

when he came back to his apartment, he was not only hungry but grumpy too. luckily, that changed once he made himself a bowl of instant noodles.

he wasn't planning on sleeping any time soon so he went in his room and sat at the desk, turning his laptop on. while eating his noodles, he decided he could do some detective work.

he spent some time looking through juyeon's friend list until he found chanhee's profile. he looked through his posts and photos, finding out it was mostly stage plays he was at and selfies of him and his friends. mostly him. there was barely anything else and sunwoo was already convinced that chanhee was quite full of himself and was very confident in his looks.

well, of course, he couldn't blame him. chanhee had a really pretty face. it was difficult to leave that unnoticed. and maybe that contributed to him being so popular.

apparently, not popular enough for sunwoo to know him, though. but sunwoo didn't know anyone so that wasn't anything new.

on top of that, knowing about chanhee's existence wasn't benefiting him or his life in any way, so why would he care that he was the star of the university.

if anything else, right now knowing about chanhee's existence was giving him a headache.

he couldn't even spam eric about what happened in the supermarket because eric was a weirdo who went to bed early and left the sound of his notifications on even while he slept. but he probably wouldn't be able to wait until the early noon when they'd see each other so he was ready to take the risk.

he texted him and when eric was seemingly not waking up from the sounds of all the notifications, sunwoo continued doing what he was previously doing - looking through chanhee's profile as if he had any business doing so.

another thing that sunwoo found out was that chanhee wasn't only very confident in himself but he was also awfully clingy. sunwoo probably noticed it just because he was usually not clingy at all and didn't like that much of closeness but chanhee really didn't have any photo with another person where he wasn't hugging them. he didn't even want to imagine what being his friend would be like.

or then again, he could be wrong about it and chanhee wasn't that clingy and did it only just for the photos. there was no way he could know and he was just left to assume.

but one thing was for sure, it was beyond weird of him to just keep stalking the boy's profile so he just went back to the home page, deciding he'd scroll around a little until he could get himself to be sleepy enough to go to bed.

while he was doing so, he received a notification for a friend request.

really, the last thing he expected was receiving a request from choi chanhee himself. yet there he was.

of course, he just closed his laptop and went to wash the empty bowl, then he went to bed. he wasn't planning on accepting that any time soon.
