Start from the beginning
                                        

Even outside, the blasted music from inside could be heard. After avoiding all the mess outside, Jaehyun stumbled into another one. There were lights flashing violently, about 4 couples making out in every corner of the room, and a guy in an Adidas hoodie downing 6 beers in a row while everyone around him screamed. He wasn't having it.

It was the first college party he's ever been to in his 3 years in New Dream University. He wasn't pleased with the things he saw. Johnny wasn't there yet either, even though he was the one who forced Jaehyun to come. Jaehyun really wasn't the type to party. He'd rather be back at their dorm, binge-watching architecture documentaries. However, Johnny kept insisting he would enjoy.

All seats and couches were occupied, so Jaehyun had no choice but to stand next to the food table. He took out his phone. It's only been 10 minutes, but he was already tired of waiting for his friend to arrive.

Hearing Ten cry on and on about Johnny, Taeyong was getting fed up

Hearing Ten cry on and on about Johnny, Taeyong was getting fed up. Not with Ten, but with his ex. The more Ten talked about the douche, the more his anger grew. How could anyone dump such an amazing guy? And- Oh.

Speak of the devil.

There he was- a 6ft tall, well-built man. He was just wearing a dark blue hoodie over a collared shirt, which seemed unusual. Johnny never really had that sort of style. And he used to be taller. Did he really change that much? Everything was an absolute blur, but that figure...Is definitely that asshole.

Taeyong felt his blood boiling. He gently moved Ten off of his arms, and reached for the beer-filled cup across him. He stood up with a balled fist, with a beer cup on his other hand.

Johnny was next to the food table, texting someone on his phone. Taeyong couldn't clearly see his face, but he was sure of what he was going to do.

Splash. Jaehyun was suddenly soaked in beer. And his phone was on the cold floor, screen completely cracked. A skinny dude with a black bomber jacket stood infront of him. His black hair was all over his face. Even with the hair covering his eyes, Jaehyun could tell they were filled with anger.

"Johnny, you fucking douchebag! Do you know what you've done to him?" The furious boy pointed at Ten, who was sleeping on the couch, his whole face red and wet with tears.

"He's hooked up with like, what, 5 other guys to try and feel the same again. And nothing is fucking working!"

Jaehyun just stood there, too overwhelmed to even process anything. Before he could even open his mouth, the guy threw the weakest punch at Jaehyun's stomach. Everyone in the room had their eyes on them.

7:46 AM
 SATURDAY

Jaehyun woke up okay, considering he didn't really drink anything last night. He hovered his hand over his phone on his bedside table, until he remembered that it was completely broken.

He took a deep breath and rubbed his face, wanting to forget that last night ever happened. Driving home at 12AM while covered in beer wasn't a nice feeling. When he removed his hands from his face, his roommate was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"Wild night? Sorry." Johnny chuckled. Jaehyun could've avoided the crisis if only Johnny actually came, and if only he wasn't a 'douche' like that dude kept saying.

"It's okay. Just...My phone broke-"

"I know. Is this enough?"

Suddenly, Jaehyun had 549$ infront of his eyes. Enough money for him to fix his phone. He hesitated at first, but he eventually had the cash in his hand. Others would've been shocked, but to them, this was normal. You see, Johnny had deep pockets.

"Take it as my apology." Johnny urged.

"I'll pay you back. Promise."

"No need. Everything was partly my fault."

8:11 AM, Paradise Café

Johnny and Jaehyun sat across each other. Johnny was on his laptop, occasionally taking a sip out of his iced Americano. Jaehyun was taking his time on his club sandwich while fiddling with his broken phone.

"Your test is on Monday, right?"

"Yeah." Johnny didn't even bother to look up at Jaehyun.

It's been a while since they've both hung out. Yesterday could've counted, but nothing went to plan. He wasn't sure if he could count today as hanging out either. Johnny seemed way too busy, but he understood. It wasn't easy being a Mechanical Engineering major.

Jaehyun sighed once he finished his sandwich, and Johnny finally looked up and closed his laptop.

"Tell me about last night." Johnny gave a warm smile.

"Oh, well..."

Johnny listened attentively to Jaehyun's story, drinking until his cup was empty. Yuta had already told him parts of the story, but hearing it from Jaehyun himself made him feel worse. He wished he actually came to the party, so Jaehyun wouldn't have had such a horrible first experience.

"It was that Graphic Design guy, right?" Johnny made sure.

"Yeah, Lee Taeyong. Ten's best friend."
