"i should get home soon." minho spoke up while he put his phone in his back pocket after checking the time, "jisung wants me to be asleep by nine tonight."
"is this because of you falling asleep in dance earlier?" hyunjin questioned the elder as he took a bite of his pretzel.
"yep." minho sighed, "now he wants me to sleep early tonight."
hyunjin stopped, covering his mouth while chewing, "why don't you two just date already?"
"can you speak to me when your mouth isn't full of food?" minho sassed the younger who rolled his eyes and continued to chew.
"done." hyunjin stuck out his tongue to receive a disgusted face from the elder, "anyway, why don't you two just date already?"
"jisung doesn't like me like that." minho shook his head at hyunjin's question, "he called me ugly."
hyunjin tried to contain his laughter, but couldn't help to let out a few giggles. minho turned to the younger and glared at him, "shut the fuck up, giraffe."
"at least my crush didn't call me ugly." hyunjin continued to laugh.
"at least my crush knows of my existence." minho shot back, "and you're the one having two crushes yet they both don't know you exist!"
"hey!" hyunjin said in an offended tone, "that was so uncalled for!"
"yeah, yeah, just shut up and eat your pretzel." minho let out a laugh, pushing hyunjin's pretzel towards his lips.
the two boys walked home together, considering they only lived a few houses down from each other. the walk consisted of sarcastic remarks to each other, a bunch of laughter, along with teasing and playfulness towards each other. the boys parted the moment they walked into their neighborhood, since they lived on opposite sides of the street.
the moment minho got home, he went upstairs to take a quick shower and get ready for bed, even though it seemed too early to be doing such things for him. but then again, a promise was a promise.

8:45 pm
"i'm not even tired." minho complained to himself as he looked up at the ceiling.
the boy had been laying in bed for around ten minutes now. the moment he got out of the shower, he changed into pajamas and headed for his bed, turning off all the lights in the room and sitting in complete darkness.
"this is so fucking boring." he cursed, letting out an annoyed sound.
suddenly, the dark room was brightened by his phone vibrating with a notification. the boy rolled over, opening his phone and looking at the message he just received.
