Red Strings // JaeNoRen

3

Renjun happily watched as the group spread out.

The two adorable sunshines, a.k.a Jungwoo and Lucas, chased eathothe down the hall like toddlers. Renjun laughed as their string glowed pink.

An innocent love.

"Hey, would you be down to play some games with Haechan and I?" Renjun turned to Mark, ramyun hair crazyily sticking up. If ramyun got struck by lightning, Renjun wondered how it ended up on Mark's head.

"Sure, I'm a bit bored," Renjun nodded. He wasn't actually that bored. It was really just fun to see the couples grow close. Who doesn't want to squeal over these guys?

"Follow me, there's games and snacks in my room," Mark trudged ahead to his room in the U-Wing.

Renjun was stunned by the U-Wing's aesthetic. The hall was pure white, but decorated with art from all over the world. American pop art, Japanese bonsai trees, Chinese illustrations, even some Thai sculptures.

"Here!" Mark opened the door to his room.

"Wow!" Renjun was surprised to see a skillfully organized room with a homely feel.

Haechan, who was jumping on the bed, flopped down.

"Yah! I just made that!" Mark yelled at the younger.

"It'll look no different when you sleep in it!" Haechan shot back.

Renjun observed the hands of his two new friends, trying to figure out what their love lives were.

Haechan and Mark both had bands on a finger. Thing is, no strings formed.

Renjun nodded in realization that the two were just friends.
....Sadly.

The Chinese boy made a mental note to get these two together.

"Renjun, what do you wanna play?" Mark pulled out board games.

"How boring~!!" Haechan rolled his eyes. "Junnie, lets play on the consoles instead!"

"Board games are better!" Mark argued.

"No way! Where is your head? In the 1980's?" Haechan bickered. "Lets do something modern, Mark."

"Pft, I'm just saying cause console games are too easy," Mark scoffed.

"Oh really now?" Haechan raised a brow.

"Yeah!"

"You're on," Haechan threw the older a controller.

"YAH! Yah yah yah! I'm your hyung--"

"YEAHHHHH I WIN(win)!" Haechan screeched in joy.

Renjun laughed his butt off as Haechan won the thirteenth time in a row.

"Man Mark, you suck..." Renjun accidently blurted.

"AHAHA! Even Junnie agrees!" Haechan gave Renjun a squeeze and laughed hard.

Renjun couldn't help but join him as his laugh was as contagious as Mark's.

"Boys! Dinner's ready!" The three boys heard Taeyong's call from the kitchen .

"Come grab dinner!" Kun called in Chinese for the rest of the boys.

The three dashed out to Mark's room and straight into the kitchen, where they were first in line.

"Me first!" Mark excitedly grabbed a plate.

"Yah! Don't you have conscience?" Haechan huffed. "I got here first!"

The two friends bickered as Renjun quietly watched on.

"Linguini? Longjun? Lengujunie? Lonjunie? Lingoni?" Taeyong mercilessly butchered Renjun's name.

Renjun felt a bit awkward until Kun stepped in.

"What do you want to eat, Junnie?" Kun asked in Chinese.

"Anything ge! I'm really hungry!" Renjun replied in their native language.

The china line ate happily while MarkHyuk got more heated.

"Yah, are you two gonna eat?" Yuta shoved some lettuce wraps in his mouth.

"I will! After Mark--"

*DiNg DiNg*

The elevator on their floor sounded.

"Is that Jaehyun?!" Jungwoo ran excitedly to the elevator doors.

"Isn't it a bit early?" Ten followed the snoopy.

The elevator doors rolled open.

"Hi, I'm Na Jaemin!"

"I'm Lee Jeno!"

Renjun was stunned.

Little did he know those two names would crawl into his life.

Na Jaemin was handsome, caremel-haired, and smiled beautifully.

Lee Jeno was adorable, raven-haired, and his looks were a show stopper.

The two new boys eyed Renjun, sparkles in their eyes.

Oh no.

Renjun looked at their hands.

These two had no strings.....

Or bands.
