"Okay Soyeon-noona, I might murder," Felix started, calmly walking up to the receptionist desk only to find a sleepy Soyeon. Well, sleepy to be nice, tired as fuck to be accurate. Her grey skirt and white blouse were askew and wrinkled and her eyes were heavy, staring off into the distance. Felix paused and looked to the older, watching as her eyes slowly closed and opened, hand tangled in her long brown hair. "... Soyeon?" Felix waved his hand in front of his noona's face, whose eyes shot open and she refocused onto the ginger in front of her.

"Oh sorry. What'd you say?" Soyeon apologized, Felix's eyebrows furrowing in concern.

"Nah nah nah. How much sleep did you get last night and do you want my coffee?" Felix asked, referencing to the drink he was holding in his right hand. She chuckled and shook her head.

"No thanks, I'll just get coffee later. My fiancee is visiting her family in China, so I can't sleep as well as I usually can, which still isn't much but enough to get me through the day," Soyeon explained, Felix nodding along. "I tried sleeping pills but it doesn't work."

"I get it completely. I've had insomnia since I was sixteen," Felix reassured, making Soyeon smile at her friend of 3 weeks. She rested her chin on her hand, intrigued.

"How does that work with Chan-oppa? You have to get bored throughout the night and accidentally wake him up, right?" Soyeon questioned, making Felix smile way wider than he had when he walked into the dormitory building.

"He's an insomniac, too," Felix explained, making Soyeon's eyes go wider. "Hyunjin caught us taking photos during sunrise, so we join him to model for his photos for class." Felix scratched his neck as Soyeon squealed, holding onto Felix's arm attached to the coffee on the desk.

"Okay, that's cute. Can I see some photos?" she asked, bouncing up and down in her seat, the excitement of aesthetically-pleasing photos seemingly giving her energy. Felix stiffled a chuckle and nodded, pulling his phone out to open the gallery he made for their photos. They contained both his photos from the first night there and the ones Hyunjin did every week or so. They also had some selfies him and Chris took while in their room.

Felix went behind the desk to her side, handing her his phone as he squatted next to her. She started scrolling, momentarily stopping to comment on the photos. She eventually found the classic photo of the two Coons hugging each other on the roof. She showed Felix the photo, who simply giggled at the memory. "That was my first night. Pretty good night if you ask me," Felix elaborated.

"You guys got close that night, huh?" Soyeon inferred, Felix nodding in agreement. "See, I'm obviously matchmaker." Felix blushed, but chuckled none the less, making Soyeon whip her head to the younger. "Wait, really?! And you never told ME?!"

"Nah nah nah, we're not dating. It's just- You'll see," Felix laughed, making Soyeon quirk one of her eyebrows at the younger. She started scrolling through his phone again, giggling at a picture of them watching Friends while Felix was using his roommate as a footrest. Then, she found some of the first professional pictures Hyunjin took. Her jaw dropped at the ones of the terrain around them. Felix smirked, wanting to see her reaction for the others.

"Oh hey guys! What's up?" Felix and Soyeon looked up to see a smiling Jisung walk through the front doors. Soyeon simply smiled back, whereas Felix's eyes shot open. 'SHIT. Jisung doesn't have a fucking clue about the photos-'

"Oh hey Jisung! We're just going through some of Hyunjin and the Aussie's photos," Soyeon introduced, leaving a shocked expression on Jisung's face. He looked to his twin, giving Felix a questioning look but still keeping a smile on his face. 

"What photos? Can I see? Are Chan-hyung and Felix secretly models?!" Jisung interrogated, getting louder and more dramatic. Soyeon and Felix chuckled, but Felix still felt his anxiety loom over him. 'If Jisung sees these, he's gonna have a field day. I'm gonna get teased so much-'
