school started again in sm high school after the semester break has ended. taeyong was awake in his room, getting ready to go to school and meet jaehyun outside to go to boom cafe together like they always did. grabbing his backpack, the red haired boy took one last look at himself in the full length mirror before waving to his roommate who had just woken up for school.
"bye, guanheng. see you later," taeyong said as the chinese boy just waved a tired hand before getting out of bed and heading to the bathroom. the red haired boy closed the door to his dorm room and made his way out of the building.
just outside of the dorm building where his room is, taeyong recognized a familiar purple haired boy who was talking to jaehyun. the boy who had returned from japan yesterday was talking to his friend while the other was waiting for his crush to exit the building.
"hey, jaehyun, yuta," the red haired boy greeted the two as he arrived at the scene. both boys greeted the latter before continuing their conversation, however this time, yuta included taeyong into it.
after about another few minutes of talking, jaehyun realized that taeyong was also listening into their conversation and paused it before whispering something to yuta.
"maybe we should talk about this later? taeyong doesn't know about what happened yet," jaehyun whispered into the purple haired boy's ear. yuta just shook his head, confusing the taller boy.
"he does. i told him," the purple haired boy said loud enough for both taeyong and jaehyun to hear.
"are you insane?! sicheng will kill you!" jaehyun whisper-yelled to his friend, and the third party heard clearly what the taller had said. yuta just nodded his head in agreement.
"i know, that's why i told taeyong not to tell anyone," yuta said. "sicheng will never know." the brown haired boy just shook his head in disapprobation.
"anyway, let's go to the cafe, then we can talk there. taeyong, are you okay if yuta tags along for breakfast today?" the brown haired boy asked his other friend who nodded in approval. he wasn't complaning about yuta coming, because as far as taeyong knew, he's just another friend.

arriving to the school campus after eating breakfast at boom cafe, the three high school students split ways before heading to their first classes. taeyong met doyoung at the boy's locker, which was on the way to the red haired boy's class. he spent some time to talk to his friend, seeing that there was at least twenty minutes before the tardy bell would ring. after all, taeyong wouldn't care if he was late to first period, since it was calculus and the red haired boy hated math in general.
"hey, doyoung. how was your break? i haven't seen you since before break began," the red haired boy attacked his friend with a head lock at the black haired boy's locker while greeting him with a question.
"is that how you greet your best friend?" doyoung asked as he gave taeyong a glare from the side. the red haired boy just dismissed the situation and continued to hold his friend in a head lock.
"did you eat breakfast?" taeyong asked, seeing as doyoung's face was red, when it wasn't before he put him in a headlock. actually, doyoung's face is usually never red. pink? sure. but red? never.
"are you okay, dude? you're face is red. are you sick?" taeyong took the red faced boy out of his hold and put the back of his had against the black haired boy's forehead, to check his temperature. doyoung immediately grabbed the shorter boy's hand and took it off his forehead gently.
"i'm fine. it's just a little hot in here," he lied. doyoung knew it wasn't because it was hot inside the building, but for a more severe reason.
"oh, okay," the boy's friend believed the lie too well as he bidded goodbye to doyoung, saying that he would see him later before heading to his calculus class in order to not be late. "bye, doyoung! and if you're hot, then maybe take off your sweater!"
doyoung saw as the red haired boy turned back around after waving at him from a few yards away and saying bye, before turning back to his locker to take out his books. shaking his head, doyoung chuckled as he closed his locker and looked back at the direction that taeyong went.
"idiot..." the black haired boy mumbled before shaking his head and turning the other direction, heading off to his first class, which was also calculus, but his class was upstairs in a different hallway instead of the way taeyong's classroom is.
