Chapter 8

They sat down at a table in a fast food place as they waited for their order number to be called. "I honestly though it was going to be something fancy." Changmin had chuckled at his statement and he couldn't help but smile in return. "Just because I have a job doesn't mean I make big bucks. Just be glad I'm buying food at all." "Don't worry, I am." Younghoon heard their number being called, so he got up and went to get it. He came back to their table and set the food down. "Well, bone apple teeth." "Don't ever say that again." They both laughed before they started eating their food.

"And she wouldn't let go of my arm! Like, I don't know what her deal was." "So you snapped at her and she walked away with tears in her eyes?" "Yep. Didn't think she had a man, so I was surprised when he approached me." Younghoon took a sip of his drink as he observed Changmin. He noticed that his face looked like that of a rodent with pouches in its cheeks. "That's cute..." he thought. "Me almost getting beaten is cute to you?" Younghoon gave him a confused look before realizing he vocalized his thoughts. "N-No. I meant that uh, your watch was cute." He felt Changmin's piercing gaze as he looked him over. "I don't know how to respond to that." Younghoon let out an awkward laugh as he tried to make himself seem invisible. "Anyway, I've been meaning to tell you this. I really like your fashion style. It really suits you." "Oh, thank you." Changmin winked at him and he sudden felt something strange.

"So, now that our bellies are full, is there anything you want to do or do you just wanna go home?" Younghoon looked at the darkening sky and figured his parents wouldn't mind him being out late. "I know a great spot on campus for stargazing. You up for that?" "Why not? I need something low thrill." They walked back to campus with Younghoon leading the way.

"If you don't want to lay your head on the grass, you're free to use my chest." "Wonderful offer, but I'll pass. I like the feeling of grass." Younghoon looked up at the now dark and star spotted sky. "This sight could calm any ferocious beast." "You really think so?" "Yeah." They remained silent until Younghoon started hearing faint snoring. "Changmin?" No response. "Changmin?" "Huh? Yeah?" Younghoon smiled softly then sat up. "You fell asleep on me. Did you have a tiring day?" "I guess you could say that." "Now that I think about it, I never asked what your major was." "Dance. I'm minoring in voice as well." Younghoon nodded and finally made the connections. "That's why we have some classes together. I'm majoring in voice but minoring in dance. Juyeon, Jaehyun and Chanhee are the same as me."

"It's a small world isn't it." "I heard you're pretty close with Chanhee now." This caused Changmin to sit up and look at Younghoon. "Chanhee is seriously funny as hell. And he's smart. I like smart people. Don't even get me started on his sarcasm. This one girl pulled up to him and tried starting a problem because he always passes test without writing anything down. He shut her down so fast and hard I doubled over." Younghoon felt a small twinge of sadness, but felt happy for Changmin overall. "It's great that you're both getting along well." "You were right. He is a great guy."

Younghoon looked at the time on his phone as Changmin continued to talk about his other classes. "It's a little past 10..." "Something wrong?" "Just looking at the time." "Do you have to be home soon?" "Nah. Since we're here, why don't we go see Juyeon? I bet you ₩5,630 that Jaehyun is there." "I'll take you up on that." They shook hands then headed to Juyeon's dorm room.

"And it looks like you owe me ₩5,630, Changmin." "You're so troublesome." "Well look at you two being all cute." Changmin laughed then sat next to Jaehyun who was playing a game on the Playstation 4. Juyeon pulled Younghoon to side while taking glances back at the two on the floor. "One, what's going on here? Two, you're out so late and that's unusual" Younghoon shrugged as he didn't really know himself. "He repaid me with food for helping him and we didn't want to go home so I brought him to the star gazing spot." Juyeon nodded as Changmin was now playing instead of Jaehyun.
