Jisung was chilling in his room, he bought some interesting stuff with Chan in a music shop. Now that he had a lot of free time, he finally remembered how much he used to spend his time in front of his computer, trying to write songs that he never finished. He liked music but he wouldn't say it was a passion.

"Ah, I feel a bit bad", he chuckled, looking at the guitar he once abandoned. If the instrument could talk, he would probably say ' welcome home cheater' or 'do you think I'm some kind of second choice?'.

He glanced at the clock, it was still early—9 in the morning. Hyunjin was probably at the pool and Na-Eun would most probably be busy with work. "Should I go buy some take out?", He said out of boredom when his phone vibrated.

He dropped the pen he was holding and closed his lyric book. He felt a bit excited, nobody had been texting him in a while mostly because some friends were busy with exam weeks, competitions and orientation. School orientation, freshmen was going to enter the university in a few months, 2019 was ending. It was quite...bizarre. 2018 hadn't felt real either. How did time flew so fast?

Annoying kid (economy), Jisung read out the name he saved for one of his dear friend. He knew Donghyuck since high school, he also worked with Jisung as cashier's together. 'youre coming for my uni festive right?', the text came with big shiny eyes emoji.

Jisung raised an eyebrow, "tell me a reason why should I?"

FREE FOOD

"Where and when?", Jisung inquired. Why should he waste food, right?

I know you would say that. My faculty, in two days. Come to my booth or no free food.

Jisung laughed ," deal but I can bring my friends, right?", When he said friends,he really wanted to say he actually wanted to bring Hyunjin the most. He knew Hyunjin was still hungover the fact he lost in the competition. What would be better than cheering up Hyunjin who love festival so much even if he didn't like crowded place?

To think he would attend it just for Hyunjin and maybe food.

He sent a screenshot of his chat with Donghyuk to the group chat he had with his teammates and friends. They didn't reply immediately because most of them took their time to enjoy the practice free day. Jeongin was probably flaunting around the fact he already got his cast off  and went to drink with Seungmin and Felix. While Woojin was probably tutoring Chan's little sister.

—Knock! Knock!

Someone opened the door before he could answer the knocking, behind the door, revealed 3 of his friends who rushed in and crushed him in a hug. "Are you bored?", Felix, the loudest one asked, pulling a board game from his bag.

They came to his house without any notice and rushed in without warning him, he was baffled. His shocked expression changed into confusion but the smile on his face didn't left his lips. "what are you guys doing here?"

Felix pinched Jisung's cheeks, "aren't friends suppose to visit their sick friends?"

"You never visit me when I was sick though?", Jeongin butter in, raising his leg and smirking at Jisung— as expected, he was flaunting his cast free leg. "That's because I don't want to bother you with Seungmin".

Seungmin raised his eyebrow. What did that have anything to do with visiting Jeongin? "What if I walk in to you guys making out?", Felix asked, making a kissy face before both Jisung and Seungmin threw a pillow at him. Jisung scrunched his nose, Felix really knew how to annoy people. It amazed him to find someone worst than himself.

"What making out? I'm telling you we're just friends", Jeongin said, throwing his hand over Seungmin's shoulder. "Like brothers"

"Plus, I like a girl", Jeongin proudly say, pulling out his phone to show a picture of a cute girl with braided hair. Felix turned around and looked at Seungmin with pity in his eyes. Seungmin threw another pillow to Felix, then hitting him with another.  "Okay, okay! I will stop teasing you!", Felix said, raising both hands to admit defeat.

Jeongin shook his head, walking over to Jisung and grabbing the board game Felix brought. "Here, Felix stole it from my room"

"In case you're bored", he explained. "Also what about the festival? We're going to Kookmin uni?", Jisung nodded, Jeongin also have met Donghyuck a couple of time whenever he came to see their game.

Felix and Seungmin climbed up the bed, the both of them seemed excited about going to the festive. An idea popped out in Felix's mind, "you're going with Hyunjin, right?"

"What kind of question is that? Who in the world leave their best friend out of the fun?", Jeongin criticised and Jisung cringed. 'best friend', he had forgotten to tell his friends about the whole ordeal of his relationship with Hyunjin. He could only laughed and nodded in respond.

Yeah, laugh and nod, laugh and nod. As if that would stop them from asking further. "You're going with him, right? I don't need to ask Changbin to pick you up, right?"

"Yeah, of course", even though, Hyunjin would most probably drag Chan to drive them to the university again. He should really consider taking a driving license but he wasn't a great driver. Running into poles everytime he try to learn was definitely a bad omen he wasn't meant to be a driver. What about Hyunjin? Hyunjin did have his own driving license but he didn't have a car.

Would Hyunjin agree going to the festive with him? Actually, it had been 3 days since he last saw Hyunjin and the last time they saw each other was the day Jisung heaven himself to kiss Hyunjin. His face instantly turn red, from his neck to his forehead and it almost seemed like a steam was coming out from the top of his head.

Jeongin waved his hand in front of Jisung's face because the older wasn't giving him any kind of respond nor reaction when he said Hyunjin was on his way there.

"Huh?", Jeongin picked up his phone and shoved it to Jisung's face. "We already told Hyunjin we're going here. So, he's coming too", Jisung mentally cursed, he wasn't ready to face Hyunjin! Had it been in another two days, maybe he could prepare himself but this was too sudden.
Jisung felt like his eyes was spinning, too stressful, too shameful!

"Are you fine?", Seungmin asked, worried when he saw Jisung's red face. He looked like someone who had caught a fever.
"I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm just tired. I was writing, yeah", His friends asked nothing further but Seungmin knew. He knew something had happened. After all, didn't Jisung told him everything?

He had a few hypothesis but he would not dare to judge the situation early. He could only wait until the main lead arrive at Jisung's.

His hypothesis was proven right when he saw Jisung's flustered face when he Hyunjin arrived and sat next to him. It became more obvious when Hyunjin leaned in and whispered something to Jisung.

"Are you alright?", As the person who initiate the kiss first, it would be wrong for him to be acting all shy as if he didn't know the sequence of his own action. Even if he planned the kiss, he hadn't plan what to do after the kiss.

"I'm fine! I'm fine!", Jisung jolted, pushing a strain hair back and smiling awkwardly at Hyunjin. Hyunjin didn't mind Jisung's awkwardness, in fact he found it cute. Jisung's expression would change every second and it was amusing to see.

What a man, really. How could he found joy in Jisung's struggle?

Jisung's face would change everytime Hyunjin move, he didn't move further but closer and Jisung would stay still like a statue.

"Ehem", Hyunjin and the boy who had steam coming out of his head turned around, Seungmin raising his eyebrows at the both of them and the other two were looking at each other in confusion. "Are you done flirting?"

"Remember, your friends are still here.", Seungmin shook his head before pointing at Jisung, "you, tell Hyunjin about your plan", Jisung snapped back to reality and nodded hastily. "Right, right. You remember Donghyuck?", How could Hyunjin not remember that kid? He was the only person who had sincerely befriended Jisung and he also had a fight with him for taking so much the with Jisung. Well, he didn't dislike the guy but he also didn't like him.

"Is this about the festival?", Jisung clapped, "how did you know?"

"He texted me...I was coming here to ask if you want to come with me", of course, without needing any word it would be a yes.

Jeongin clapped his hands, "Now! Now! Done with that boring talk. Let's play!", Jeongin pushed the board game Felix stole from his to and bent down, taking something underneath Jisung's bed. "I know you hide it here!", Jeongin proudly said, taking out Jisung's PS4 along with the consoles.

Jisung groaned, he kept it hidden because once his friend started playing, they will never stop playing until they fell asleep. Felix pouted, picking up the board games he stole before kicking Jeongin's back, "give me one console too"

Seemed like there was no helping in this situation.

Jisung set a coffee table in front of his bed where all of them can sit at. He played enough of his PS4 this past few days doing nothing while waiting for Hyunjin to come back from the university.

"There's something wrong with the console! Why does it keep looking up! I can't shoot the zombies like this! What do I shoot? The sky?", It seemed like Felix had a bit problem with the console but Jisung was too occupied to help him.

How could he even say a word, Seungmin probably already noticed he was sweating and his face was turning red.

Hyunjin looked around, he takes a cough as his hand sneakily went down to place his hand over Jisung's hand before wrapping it with Jisung's. Jisung hadn't expected Hyunjin to be so confident. He told Hyunjin before, he didn't mind his friends knowing about them. Back then, Hyunjin hadn't say anything back to him but this action told Jisung exactly what Hyunjin's thought was.

Even if they were to be caught now, Hyunjin wouldn't mind either.

Jisung turned his palm over, wrapping his fingers with Hyunjin's, rubbing Hyunjin's index knuckle, a smile spread on his face.
