taeyong quickly checked himself in the reflection of the microwave to see if he looked good enough for a first impression.
"hellooo?" the voice got louder.
taeyong heard rustling so he rushed to see who his roommate was.
"hello! i'm your new space divider!" he repeated the same sentence.
"uhh..," the guy looked taeyong up and down.
"you look confused haha," taeyong said sheepishly while scratching his neck.
"i am though. who even says 'space dividers'? do you mean 'roommates' ?" the other one asked with a raised eyebrow.
"yes, but 'space dividers' sound way cooler," taeyong let the guy walk into their living room.
"quirky," a mumbled was heard.
taeyong went back to the kitchen to see, that the sink was starting to overflow. he turned off the faucet while making a 'tsk' sound.
"you claimed the left room?" a voice shouted.
"yeah!" taeyong shouted back.
~**~
it was 6 pm now and taeyong was laying on the couch, watching TV. he had taken his xbox to the dorm, but, being a lazy ass, he couldn't set it up. so there he was, not doing anything productive.
taeyong still hadn't gotten his roommate's name, but after their small conversation, they haven't talked since. taeyong just wanted to give the guy his space, so he could move in peacefully.
and so taeyong, yet again, fell asleep.
~**~
sleeping for hours now, taeyong woke up and was met with a pair of eyes really close to his face.
taeyong screamed.
"what the fuck! why are you looking at me? are you fucking mental? am i a statue to you or something?" taeyong rambled while getting up from the couch and backing away from the person.
"you had this huge ass booger sticking out of your nose," ten replied.
"then why were you so close to it? wanted to fucking eat it?" taeyong went to his bathroom to get a tissue. he looked in the mirror, but there was no booger.
"hahaaa i'm so funnyyyy. i just wanted to scare youuu. sorry not sorryyy," ten skipped into the bathroom and side hugged the pink haired boy.
both men stopped their actions when they heard someone closing and opening doors. they heard footsteps and now there was someone standing in the bathroom door.
"i heard screaming. is everything alright?"
"yes, completely okay! don't worry..uh...what's your name?" ten smiled at the guy, still hugging taeyong.
"jaehyun. my name is jaehyun. and yours?" he looked ten up and down, just like he did with taeyong, and smiled.
"i'm ten. just like the number 'ten'," ten laughed and smirked at the latter.
jaehyun continued to observe ten, who was now put his hand on taeyong's waist. he looked at ten's hand and a question popped up if-
"no, we're not together," taeyong spoke.
"or maybe we are..." ten jokingly tried to kiss taeyong's cheek while making 'smooch' sounds.
"either way, i'm not homophobic, so it's cool if you're y'know.." jaehyun smiled.
"phew! honestly didn't think u were a homophobe. although, i bet you're the other 'homo' word," ten winked while saying "homosexual."
ten started laughing hArd and jaehyun chuckled, "well, it's for me to know and for you to find out, i guess," he winked at ten, but averted his gaze at taeyong, who caught the look on jaehyun's face and coughed a bit.
"you're such a flirt, jaehyun. i'm quite sad that you aren't my roommate. i could've gotten the gay out of you, but i'm not complaining about my current one though," ten stretched, "speaking of, i'm gonna go back to my dorm. roomie can't cook shit, so gotta feed these kids!" and ten sprinted out of the bathroom and closed the dorm's door loudly.
and now there were just the two of them. taeyong and jaehyun. looking at each other like they were communicating telepathically.
"god, he's so embarrassing sometimes," taeyong put his hands on his face to hide the face of embarrassment.
"honestly, he was funny. and let's not forget - talkative. too talkative," jaehyun was about to go to his bedroom, when he stopped in his tracks and went backwards to see taeyong and ask-
"wait, your name is...?"
taeyong was startled by the voice, "uh..taey- taeyong yeah, i don't know why i stuttered."
"hm, taeyong.." jaehyun mumbled, "suits you!" he shouted while closing taeyong's bedroom door.
