The sound of your voice through the phone catches Heeseung off guard. 


"y/n!" His voice sounds more excited than he'd wanted it to sound. Ni-Ki covers his mouth, trying to mask the laugh that almost leaves his lips. 


"What's up, Heeseung?" You say, a little bit surprised that he'd called you. 


"Oh, uhhhh, I actually just wanted to talk about some....stuff," Heeseung says, mentally face-palming himself. Jay shakes his head, finding Heeseung's inability to talk to you hilarious. 


"Yeah, of course! Spill."


"So, how have you been?" Heeseung says, not knowing how to get to the point. Ni-Ki almost bites his hand, trying to keep his laugh to himself. 


"Good....I guess," You say, now more confused. "Is this why you called?"


"No!" Heeseung exclaims, the words leaving his mouth before he can even think them through. "That's not why I called."


"Get to the point then," You say, your voice reassuring. 


"Okay, so it's about Romeo....." Heeseung's voice trails off, almost to give you a moment to think about what he might say next. 


"Right. What about Romeo?" 


"Uh, you know how Hannah broke things off with him for good?" Heeseung asks, knowing that you would most definitely be aware. 


"Yes, I do know," You say, growing a bit impatient. 


"Well, he called me and was hella distraught-" 


"Not my problem, Hee," You interrupt. 


"No, y/n, please. Can you at least talk to Hannah and see if there's any way she'll change her mind?" Heeseung pauses, his voice almost sounding like a plea. "Please."


"Heeseung, she's already made up her mind. And, I'm going to be honest, I support her. Romeo might be a changed man. But that doesn't take away from what he's done to me, or Sunoo, and most importantly, it doesn't change how he's treated Hannah." 


"y/n, it's just that he was begging me. He needs her so badl-"


"Forget it Heeseung. If this is why you called, then please just hang up," You say bluntly. 


"Fuck," Heeseung mutters to himself. Jay shoots him a look, almost as if to remind Heeseung that he's still on the phone. "Actually, y/n, there's something else."


Ni-Ki's eyes shoot up, surprise all over his face. He whispers to Jay. "Is he going off the unofficial script?" 


"Shhh, I wanna hear what he says," Jay says, lightly tapping Ni-Ki's shoulder.
