Jeongin sighted for the thousands time in front of his homeworks.

"Annnnnnnd.....I give up....Why do they always give the hardest exercises as homeworks" He said out loud to himself

"It's been only 50 minutes, I thought you were gonna continue for at leats one more hour" a voice exclaimed from the lobby entrace

"Oh h-hyung" Jeongin was a bit surprised by the sudden appearance

"I-I'm just taking a break, I don't know what you are talking about..." Jeongin replied to the older's comment

"Yeah yeah of course, want some help?" Hyunjin proposed after chuckling at the younger's excuse

"Yes?" Jeongin said with uncertainty

Hyunjin made his way to the small refrigerator and took a bottle of sports drink then sat beside Jeongin.
Surprisingly Hyunjin didn't smell any sweat but instead a really enjoyable vanilla fragrance. Jeongin deducted that the latter must have taken a shower after practice.

"Miss Violette always gives the hardest exercises to do and the hardest explanation in class! It is waaaaaaaay easier when you explain now!" Jeongin exclaimed

"I'm flattered, thanks!" Hyunjin said and winked at Jeongin

They spent 1 hour doing all the works.
Jeongin really appreciated the older's presence and his kindness. To think that he could spend time alone with one of the TOP3, it's just unbelievable.
On Hyunjin's side, he liked the younger's presence, it's just like whenever he saw the younger he just had to smile and be happy, because the latter had that kind of effect on him.

"Okay let's go?" Hyunjin proposed after they finished packing up.

They took the bus to Felix's and Minho's house. The traject was peaceful, not much crowd in the bus, just 5 people and the two students. The night landscape that Jeongin could see from the bus' window was calming, with lights from the buildings and restaurants, people just chilling on the public bench. On the other hand, Hyunjin was kinda tired from the practice, so he just calmly watched the younger without talking much and saving the energy for later.

"Hyung do you sometimes stargaze?" Jeongin out of nowhere asked Hyunjin

"Yeah they are beautiful, they remind me of my past dog, so I like to admire them shining bright in the dark" Hyunjin responded honestly

"O-oh, I'm sorry for your lost, you must miss him a lot" Jeongin said sadly taken a back by the response

"Don't mind it, it was a long time ago and I know that he will always be in my heart and he'll always watch me from where he is" Hyunjin said smiling

That smile just warmed Jeongin's heart, it was such a genuine and innocent smile, he knew the later's words were sincere.

"So tell me what do you like to do?" Hyunjin changed subject not wanting the bus ride to become too emotional

"Like my hobbies?" Jeongin questioned for confirmation

"Yeah or just when you are bored" Hyunjin replied

"Hmm......I don't really do much actually, I just like to draw or play video games" Jeongin responded

"Oh you must be a great artist then, I can tell" Hyunjin said

"I-I wouldn't say that a-and you can't tell without seeing my works" Jeongin tried to reject the compliment and got shy

"So you'll show them to me one day then!" Hyunjin teased the younger but he actually wanted to see them

"I-I didn't say I would" Jeongin said

"But you said that I had to see your works first, before saying that you're good" Hyunjin continued

"I didn't mean it that way, plus my drawings aren't that good anyway" Jeongin said and murmured the last part

"Really? But I wanted to see them, I want to know if they are as pretty as the owner" Hyunjin smoothly said

Jeongin was still trying to process what the later said to him when the bus came to a stop and it was where they had to go out.

"Let's go, we've arrived" Hyunjin continued just like nothing happened

Without questioning more Jeongin just walked quietly with the older till Felix's and Minho's house.

"Hey!!!!! Jeongin!" A loud scream came from inside the house, Jeongin could recognize that it was from Han

"Han-a you're too loud and thank you for greeting me too I appreciate your effort" Hyunjin sarcastically said

"Yeah and Hyunjin" Han quickly said without much emotion

The two friends looked at each other at first with glaring eyes but then they started to chuckle.

"Hey hyung" Jeongin sheepishly said because he was once again alone with the TOP3

"Come inside you guys Jeongin's gonna catch cold" Seungmin said while appearing at the door

"Oh and Hyunjin" Seungmin added

"What's wrong with you guys, am I not visible enough" Hyunjin said and chuckle at the same time because it was normal for him

"Yeah I think you should wear those bling-bling shirts" Seungmin continued

"Ya !" Hyunjin said jokingly

Jeongin who was paying attention to their interaction got dragged by the hand inside the house, he realized that Hyunjin was holding his hand, but pretended that it was nothing.
Jeongin was already amazed by the decoration outside the house, but when he came inside, it was mesmerizing, the living room was huge with a bar connected to the kitchen. He knew they were on a different level.

"Hey Hyunjin!" The voice known as Changbin greeted

"Hyung! So how are things so far" Hyunjin said

"Hmm, just Felix and Chan kissing in the kitchen I think" Changbin said nonchalantly

"I see, come on Jeongin let's go take a seat" Hyunjin nonchalantly responded and talked to Jeongin

"Here, do you drink?" Minho asked while handing a glass of beer

"Maybe you would prefer Champagne" Changbin added

"I'm sorry I don't drink" Jeongin rejected the offer

"Why do you have to be sorry?" Seungmin said

"Yeah you're not wrong" Han added

"What would you like to drink?" Minho asked again with a smile to reassure the younger

"We've got juice, soda and water" Changbin said

"A cola is good thank you" Jeongin respectfully said and accepted the drink

"A cola with Jack Daniel for me" Hyunjin who was silently watching the younger interacting with the others said

"Serve yourself sir" Minho said

"I- Okay" Hyunjin just made his way inside the counter and made his drink without adding anything else

Jeongin was still blocked on what Changbin had said earlier, about Felix and Chan kissing in the kitchen, they could just nonchalantly talk about it, it must be usual for them then.
"Kiss" Jeongin wondered how it felt to kiss someone, especially someone you have feelings for, but it's not like he's gonna say it out loud anyways.
