"Okay, why are you so happy today? I swear your mood swings are too much," Sehun let out a cute chuckle. Jongin noticed that anything that Sehun does is either cute or pretty nowadays. Why is that?

"Ah, you were right! Less problems are occupying my mind right now! Thank you," Jongin said and hugged Sehun tightly. Sehun was surprised at first but then he wrapped his arms around Jongin's torso. If anyone was looking and if Jongin was visible, they would've cooed at this amazing sight.

"No problem," Sehun let go and smiled at Jongin. He's still wondering why Jongin doesn't want to show him his true self. Is he shy? Is he too insecure? Is he...

"I'm also so sorry for the trouble that I caused you last time. I was too much to handle, wasn't I?" Some sadness lingered in his sweet voice.

"No! Not at all! I was very happy that you trusted me enough and let everything out. You didn't cause me any trouble," He smiled again. One day, this smile will be the cause of Jongin's death. This smile made his heart beat at an erratic pace that he thinks it may burst at any time but again, why is this all happening? Jongin couldn't lay his hand on a legit reason.

"So, how's college? Anything so far?" Jongin asked.

"No, not really. Just the usual," Sehun smiled far too wide for it to be something usual.

"Are you very sure? You know you can tell me anything," Jongin's tone was full of teasing. Sehun suddenly started blushing so hard. His cheeks were just like tomatoes and his eyes lingered on the floor. Something definitely happened then.

"So..." Sehun started but he couldn't really speak about such thing.

"Yeah?"

"Well... A cute guy came to our college today," Sehun spoke shyly.

"H-huh? What's his name?"

"Zitao. He's a transfer from China. He's my partner in our upcoming project," Sehun was blushing very hard that his cheeks could be mistaken as if they were slapped continuously. Jongin didn't like one word from what Sehun was saying. Does Sehun like that transfer guy? Will he stop talking to Jongin just because of him? Why is Jongin even asking himself this? So what if Sehun likes him? Jongin couldn't and shouldn't care less.

"Oh, is that so?" Jongin almost scoffed but he held it in. Sehun nodded timidly.

"He's also coming today so we can get on with it since it's due in next week," Jongin tried so hard to keep his cool and not burst in rage right then and there.

"Fine then, should I leave?" Jongin didn't want this sentence to be filled with venom however, the way he said it could kill thousands of birds with how much poison his words contained.

"No! Stay with me," Sehun smiled so sweetly again and Jongin couldn't help but soften up a bit. "Why are you so mad, Jongin?"

"Oh, nothing. Come here," Jongin had to hug Sehun to make him know that he can't pass his limits with that guy but why is he doing this?

"Jongin, are you... jealous?" Sehun tried to look up at him. Jealous? Is he?

"Me? No way," Jongin let out a nervous laugh.

"Are you very sure?"

"Y-yes."

"Okay, as you say," And Sehun threw his body on him one more time and burried his nose in Jongin's collarbone, taking in the calming scent of the latter. His smile widened when he thought about Jongin getting jealous over this, even if he doesn't admit it. Why was he so happy?

"Can't you postpone this meeting thing? I want to stay with you for a while," Sehun couldn't help but nod while smiling. What is this foreign feeling that's overtaking his whole body? He felt extremely happy, with butterflies churning in his stomach. He wanted this feeling to last a lifetime. He took his phone from his nightstand and texted the new guy quickly then turned back to Jongin.

"All done!" Sehun exclaimed happily.

"Did you eat anything while I was away?" Sehun shook his head slowly. "I told you a million times Sehun to not skip meals! How many times should I say this so you fully understand my words?" Jongin huffed angrily.

"Sorry..." Sehun didn't like it when Jongin scolded him. So what if it was only one meal? Jongin sighed.

"It's fine, follow me.'

"To where?"

"The kitchen. You need to eat, Sehun. You're beginning to lose weight. You'll be so scrawny and weak and we don't want that, do we?"

"No."

"Then follow me," And Jongin dashed to the kitchen, opened the fridge to find absolutely nothing inside there. "Are you kidding me?"

"What?"

"You have no food. What if you suddenly got hungry? What would you do then?"

"Takeout is always an option," Sehun shrugged and Jongin sighed.

"Today it is, tomorrow it isn't. Okay?"

"Yeah," And then both Jongin and Sehun heard a ringtone.

"Is that your phone?" Jongin asked.

"Yeah, I'll go check who it is," Sehun scurried out of the kitchen and entered his bedroom to check who could possibly be calling him and Sehun was surprised when he found that the newbie from China was calling him! Sehun swiped his finger on the screen and brought his phone close to his right ear.

"Hello?" a sweet voice was heard on the other line.

"Hey," Sehun replied with an equally sweet voice.

"Are you busy today?" the Chinese guy asked innocently.

"Kind of? Why?"

"Uhm, I was wondering if we could... go out and get a drink to discuss our upcoming project if you're not comfortable enough with me entering your house?" the guy sounded extremely nervous.

"Oh, I'm afraid I can't. I'm extremely busy today so, I'll see you tomorrow at college, okay?"

"Oh. Okay. Have a nice day, bye."

"Bye."

"I'm glad you didn't agree," Jongin simply said. His voice didn't contain any lingering expression.

"I wanted to spend the day with you, as I said before. A project can definitely wait," Sehun smiled.

"However, I disagree with you in something," Jongin's voice was still expressionless.

"Huh? What is it?" Sehun asked in confusion.

"That guy likes you," 'And I don't like it.' But Jongin kept the last part to himself.

"No he doesn't," Sehun scoffed at the silly statement. "He's just a classmate that wants to finish his work."

"Trust me on it when I say that, I have more experience than you do."

"Well," Sehun paused for a bit. "Even if he does like me, I wouldn't like him back."

"And why is that?"

"I don't know, but I don't feel anything towards him."

"Okay, my little friend needs some dating lessons, doesn't he?" Jongin teased.

"No I don't. I'm fine like that," and Jongin hugged Sehun. He asked himself many times why he did it but he wouldn't get an obvious answer. It had to be knotted together. However, his thoughts didn't last long as he felt himself wavering. He was in the thin line between consciousness and unconsciousness and he couldn't hold himself upright. He couldn't continue like that and then without warning, he fell to the ground, his visibility wavering as well as his consciousness. Sehun just stared with wide eyes. He couldn't move.
