twenty two

Sometime during the night, Jeno's legs had become laced with Jaemin's, and Jaemin had his arm thrown carelessly over the older's body to keep the two connected throughout the powerless and cold night.

The sound of the door opening didn't even wake the pair as their soft snores continued to fall from both of their mouths cutely.

"The state of you two," Jisung hummed while stepping into the bedroom with care.

He was relieved that Jinsoo wasn't here, but was even more relieved to see that Jeno hadn't spent the night alone.

The pinkette leaned some and shook their unconscious bodies. He let a small chuckle slip out as both of the sleeping boys hummed in utter detest to waking up or even moving.

Morning had already been peeking through the curtains for hours, and although Jisung wanted to let them sleep on, his watch was telling him that they would both be late to class.

"Come on, guys. It's nearly eleven. How are you both still asleep?" The youngest laughed, shaking them once again.

This time, Jeno shot up in panic, his eyes darting manically around the room for danger but soon settled on Jisung instead.

The intensity in his eyes softened and became friendly but confused.

"What are you doing here?" He groggily asked, his head pounding from the late night, but his mind not fully there due to his sudden movements.

Jisung merely pointed to the bed, laughing loudly when Jeno almost screamed in reilisation that he had shared a bed with Na Jaemin.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck," he squealed, jumping away from the waking blonde. "What the fuck are you both doing here?" He yelled, his legs already slipping out of under the covers as he distanced himself from them.

He once again looked around, his panic starting to calm as he noticed all the electronic clocks beeping as they restarted.

"Power cut," he mumbled, though it was more so to himself to calm the increase in the thumping from his heart.

"I'm just waking you two up, 'cause I noticed that neither of you had arrived at school and assumed there was something wrong with the building. I sure as hell wasn't expecting to see you to in bed together," he said, eyes gazing expectantly between the two.

"There is nothing going on with me and Jaemin. He was coincidently over when the power died, and we saw no reason why he should walk around in the dark if he could stay here!" Jeno replies defensively, trying to settle Jisung's suspicions.

"Are you saying that Jinsoo agreed to this?" The pinkette disbelievingly asked, his hand beginning to rub his chin as if he was a detective who had come to a realisation with a mystery.

"W-Well, not really," the older whispered before letting his gaze fall onto a stirring Jaemin. "And don't tell Soo either. He'll kill me if you do," Jeno tiredly hissed while pulling Jaemin up into an upright position.

The younger released many inhuman noises and groans of protest, but Jeno and Jisung ignored each and every one of them.

"Wake up, Jaem."

"You're telling me that you woke me up this early for school, and we aren't even allowed to go in?" Jaemin screeched, his hands gripping onto the coffee mug as he inhaled the beverage's scent to calm his raging emotions.

"Well, Jaem, it isn't that early, and poor Ji didn't know that school had been cancelled!" Jeno defended, wrapping his arm around Jisung's shoulder comfortingly while the pinkette wore a regretful pout.

"Sorry, guys, I just did want you to be late," he mumbled, his hands fiddling with each other as he leaned into Jeno's warm touch.

The trio were sitting up to Jeno's counter, having long since forgotten about the dangers of Jinsoo.

That is until the oldest barged through, seemingly sporting a happier mood than usual.

"Oh, Jaemin?" The ravenette muttered confusedly. "Are you here for the partner work?"

Jaemin wearily looked between Jisung and Jeno before nodding hesitantly. "Of course I am. And Jisung wanted to help us out a bit if he could. He stayed at my place and can't get home now."

"Not a bother," Jinsoo mumbled lightheartedly while making himself a coffee.

'What's gotten into him?' Jaemin mouthed to Jeno while the eldest had his back turned away.

'Haven't a clue...'
