students around them were welcomed with two boyfriends. the grasp on each other's hands went tighter as they walked down the hall. their hearts were beating faster than usual. they were finally coming out to the whole school. it wasn't how ten would've imagine, somehow it was calming seeing the smiling faces of the people surrounding them.

"what about your mom?"

johnny went thinking for a split second but then he realized there was nothing to be afraid of. his mom only cared for his education and anything that could possibly ruin it. after all, he's the only one expected to take over their business. there's no one else to claim the position developed just for him.

but he was doing good in class. he had high marks enough to make his parents proud to the whole world. all he wondered how his mom was going to take it in--his boyfriend.

"i'll take care of it. don't you worry, baby."

their talk last night definitely made ten sigh in relief. he was serene that night and the thought of how this would end up in johnny's arms sent him to calm down.

"eyy! you're finally coming out after so many months, huh?"

of course, seungcheol wouldn't miss it for the world. he totally knew this and was ready to tease the two, like how he would tease every other couple in the school.

"you knew?" the two boys were in shock to how the man knew but it's besides the point that they were getting ready for the tease.

"of course i knew. you did it in my house, you think i wouldn't see you enter my guestroom?" and there he went.

"i just didn't tell you because i wanna see how you handle hiding it together. yeah, for two of the most popular people in campus, i'd give a 10 out of 10." seungcheol smirked.

"ugh, i wonder how your girlfriend puts up with you." johnny said.

"hey! nayeon loves me, shut the fuck up, seo!"

seungcheol smiled as he watched the two walk away. watching for months was exhausting indeed. he thought to himself.

johnny and ten were finally free to show the school how in love they were since the beginning. they weren't going to hide anymore. although hiding was kinda fun. but you eventually get tired of it. ten smiled at the thought.

they entered first class which surprisingly had all of their friends.

"wowowow, you're finally doing it!" yuta smirked as he watched the two walk past him. they sat together behind jaehyun and taeyong and grinned at how their friends started teasing.

"still can't believe you hid for six months. are we a joke to you?" jungwoo deadpanned. beside him was sicheng who laughed.

"hiding was fun, though. you didn't even know he was in my room the night we had a sleepover." ten smirked.

"you filthy bitch." taeyong said from in front of him before laughing along with the guys.

"now that you've come out, you can make your official appearance at the black light party."

the eight friends were seen in the cafeteria seated in their usual spots. for once, johnny and ten can eat while being clingy--something they'd imagine doing for months.

"how'd you manage to hide from us?" jungwoo asked taking the fries from lucas' tray.

"we're just really good at it."

"bet you guys, they had sex in every room possible in this school."

"that's gross, lucas. what the fuck."

they ditched their own booths just to have lunch all together. it's the open house and they've been busy all morning. jungwoo and taeyong were scouted under the culinary arts department and they've been helping out with the food since the last 2 days. jungwoo secretly took out a few of the dishes just to feed his monster friends and himself.

johnny, being the head under the fashion department, have set out an innovated thrift shop for the whole school taking up so much of the space. he got jaehyun to help him out since he wasn't scouted anywhere. and aside from handling the fashion department, he insisted to help out an old friend, kun, in setting up in the broadcast room. they've been in charge with the music for the whole school since the start of the open house, and so everywhere they go, there's music blasting through speakers.

lucas and yuta, on the other hand, were in charge of having a sports tryouts in the fields that now have earned a lot. sicheng and ten were responsible for the dance workshops in the studios. sicheng have taught chinese traditional dance while ten in the hiphop divisions along with his cousin.

the open house have been open for 3 days, including the current day, and the friends were exhausted but happy. they sometimes took breaks and hung out in the theaters handled by the juniors just to hide from people and run away from tasks.

"shouldn't we be back to our booths by now?" yuta said.

"no one's trying to find me, so..."

suddenly, a student came up close to their table and stood close trying to get the friends' attention.

"oppa, we need you in the department. it's kinda falling apart without you there."

johnny cursed under his breath. just as he thought no one needs him at the moment, someone comes by to find him. he wanted to spend more time with his friends and his boyfriend in public.

"guess that's my cue." johnny placed his drink down and started grabbing his stuff. the rest thought that with one gone, they should get going too. and so they grabbed their stuff and stood up together with johnny.

the student left assuming to wait for johnny in the department. johnny decided to walk ten going to the studios to drop him off.

as they reached the doors, ten clung more onto johnny's arm, not wanting to let go.

"i don't wanna go just yet." ten pouted, keeping his head snuggled on johnny's chest.

johnny chuckled before gently pulling away. "baby, you have to teach your students, and i have to go." the smile on johnny's face was pleasing enough to make ten smile back.

"we still have the black light party tonight. we'll have so much time then." johnny said kissing the boy's forehead.

ten had no other choice but to nod and give out a pout. johnny resisted kissing him on the spot because it's against the rules. pda's mean detention.

when ten walked in, he got energetic. it's like he was waiting for what would come next. the annual black light party, that's what he was waiting for.

every year, after the yearly open house, seungcheol hosts an annual black light party in his house. of course, drinks are on him, the place is going to be filled with uv lights, and people drawing crazy shit on other people's faces using uv markers.

thinking about coming out as boyfriends in the party made ten's heart race. he was excited and he felt like peeing.
