chapter 25

"Why didn't you just text me?" Jeno asked with a questioning frown.

"Because it doesn't show the sincerity, man." He answered with a proud grin.

"You didn't take me for an openly emotional fella. No offence." Jeno answered.

"Nah, it's cool. No offence taken." He laughed before slapping Jeno's back, "Let's get the fuck out of here before we all go insane, man."

"God, you really gotta stop saying that after every sentence." Jeno groaned in frustration, a light chuckle following shortly after.

"Stop saying what?" The other quirked a confused brow.

"Man." Jeno answered, hitting him on the shoulder as he did so. Wasn't it obvious?

"Nah, man." He laughed and Jeno shook his head, "C'mon let's go, man." He continued to laugh as he wrapped his arm around Jeno's shoulder and they let the library together.

Jeno waited patiently for Chenle and Jisung at their lockers. He had a free period last and shooting hoops at the basketball court is only entertaining for so long. Yes, he could have gone home but his father always scolds him when he goes home early, saying things like he could have worked on an assignment at the library or something.

Jeno was relieved to hear the school bell ring within the halls. Almost instantly, the corridor was filled with students eager to leave. It took a good five minutes before Jeno saw Chenle walking down the hall. The younger gave him a smile once he saw him, his arms were wrapped around his books but he still lifted his hand to wave.

"What did you have last?" Chenle asked curiously as he placed his books into his locker and pulled out the ones he needed for study or assignments.

"I had a spare." Jeno answered in almost a sigh making the younger chuckle. "What did you have last?"

"English." Chenle replied as he turned to the older, throwing his bag over his shoulder as he did so.

"What did Jisung have?" Jeno questioned with a frown. He must be on the other side of the school with how long it was taking him to get to the lockers.

"P.E." Chenle informed in which the other nodded with understanding.

Just like clockwork, Jisung came down the hall with a group of others who were probably in the same class. He waved at the two as he came into their proximity, a broad smile on his lips. He was excited to hang out after school since Haechan had been getting on his nerves. Not to mention Jaemin, he was driving Jisung up the walls with questions. He couldn't blame the older because he was stuck inside but still Jaemin could at least have some pity on Jisung. Especially, when he and Haechan gang up on him all the time.

"Hey," Jisung greeted as he opened his locker, "So, where are we going?"

"We should get something to eat." Chenle suggested. Both of them agreed as Jisung grabbed his bag and closed his locker.

"Where though?" Jeno wondered as they walked down the corridor together. As they exited the school and made their way to the parking lot, they thought of places to go.
