count on me┃jaeyong

⌜ twenty one ⌟

the freshman kept on talking and all jaehyun did was nod his head, looking like he was listening to him but his thoughts were still circling about what his mistake is and what caused for taeyong to act like that. basically, he's just thinking about a certain person and probably ways on how to get him, take him away from that actor.

❝he didn't even go home the next day!❞ mark exaggerated his tone. although, it did sound serious. ❝but he already told his parents about it, not his friends that's why they were worried for him. though, they found out that it had something to do with a biker? i'm not really sure.❞

as mark was about to say more about it, his eyes laid on the older across him that just nodded his head but his eyes were staring out of no where. it just came to him that jaehyun isn't even processing one word he said inside his head, he's spacing out. dropping the topic off as the other didn't care about it at all, mark took a cold water bottle and startled him by putting it on his forehead.

❝what the fuck, simba!?❞ he clicked his tongue, snapping out from his pile of thoughts about this someone.

❝so,❞ folding his arms and propping it down the table, the freshman has his bored eyes looking at him with his tongue poking his inner cheek. ❝why are you thinking about him?❞

❝i'm not thinking about taeyong—❞

❝caught ya.❞ the younger then pointed a finger at him with a grin. ❝i didn't even mention a name. you could probably be thinking about ten as he's your ex that you're trying to get back with but i guess you weren't.❞

get back with? with a groan, jaehyun propped his elbows down the table as he buried his face on to the palm of his hands. ❝i gave up on that already.❞

with how he's being distracted with another person than having his goal set on getting his ex back, it's not a surprise for mark. though, the older could have told him before so he wouldn't even bother pushing him to his ex. ❝let me guess, taeyong?❞

licking his bottom lip, jaehyun gave the younger a sheepish smile. ❝am i obvious?❞

❝with how you're so whipped whenever you look at him, how you talk about him every minute of the day, also how you have his name as wifey with two hearts on the sides in your contacts, and not to mention the scene you both caused during the basketball game,❞ mark looked unbothered while eating his meal. ❝no, i guess you're not that obvious.❞

groaning for the nth time, jaehyun dropped his head down on the table, making a loud thud that caused for the students to once again look at them. ❝i don't get it, simba. did i do something wrong?❞

❝didn't you just use him though? to make ten hyung jealous.❞ the freshman said in curiosity.

❝yeah, about that.❞ facing the student across him, jaehyun showed an innocent smile as if he hadn't done anything wrong so far. ❝i may have met ten after the game, at the lockers. we may or may have not made out and then that was all it took to make me realize that it was wrong, that i am setting my eyes on someone else, and that i received a slap from him.❞

❝wait,❞ almost dropping his chopsticks at how the med student had said each word in just a flash, the freshman had his face scrunched. ❝what?❞

❝i settled things with ten, got him mad but it's alright, i deserved that slap, then got to talk with taeyong during that night.❞ jaehyun explained again, shortening it and also slowing down for the younger to catch up. ❝i indirectly confessed to him by saying that we should make things real instead of just pretending.❞
