Bold is Junhui
Italics is Minghao

[July 21, Thursday] 

(6:30PM) Don't forget to buy pizza on the way back.

(6:31PM) What?

(6:32PM) Pizza. For dinner. 

(6:34PM) Mom? Did you change your number? I'm just in my room.

(6:34PM) Very funny, Wonwoo. I promise I'll pay you my share for the pizza. 

(6:35PM) Ah, now it makes sense. I'm not Wonwoo.

(6:36PM) What do you mean you're not Wonwoo don't try and get out of this, it's your turn to bring home food!!! 

(6:36PM) I'm not Wonwoo!!!

(6:36PM) Prove it!!!

(6:37PM) [picture sent] 

(6:37PM) You're definitely not Wonwoo. 

(6:38PM) That's what I've been saying.

(6:38PM) You're cute though. 

(6:38PM) Gee, thanks, glad to know my right eye is cute. 

(6:39PM) I'm serious. You can tell a lot about a person by their right eye. 

(6:39PM) Like how I'm not Wonwoo?

(6:39PM) Exactly. So, Not-Wonwoo, may I know who you are? 

(6:40PM) Shouldn't you focus on getting that pizza request to Wonwoo first? Like get his number right? 

(6:40PM) All taken care of, I contacted Mingyu and he's with Wonwoo, of course, and they're coming over soon. 

(6:40PM) Right. I'm going to pretend I know who those people are. Or who you are, for that matter. 

(6:40PM) I asked that question first.

(6:41PM) Fine. Fair enough. I'm not telling you then. 

(6:41PM) What do you mean you're not telling me? 

(6:41PM) You might be a creep. Or a kidnapper. 

(6:41PM) You already sent me a photo of your right eye, and now you're cautious?  

(6:41PM) Maybe it's not my eye.

(6:42PM) Sure. Would it help if I introduced myself first then? 

(6:42PM) Yes.

(6:42PM) Unfair.

(6:42PM) Life isn't fair. 

(6:42PM) Fine. My name is Junhui. 

(6:43PM) That's a nice name. 

(6:43PM) Thank you.

(6:43PM) Feels fake.

(6:43PM) Are you kidding me. 

(6:43PM) HAHA I am, actually. I'm Minghao. 

(6:44PM) Now that feels fake too. 

(6:44PM) That's my joke, where's your originality? 

(6:44PM) Sorry, Minghao. 

(6:44PM) Apology accepted, Junhui. 

(6:47PM) Well, the pizza's here. It was nice accidentally texting you, Minghao. 

(6:47PM) Same here, Junhui. Enjoy the pizza! 

 

"What's with the weird smile on your face?" 

"Nothing!"

Junhui quickly stopped grinning. He threw his phone underneath the a couch pillow, but Wonwoo noticed the action because really- that wasn't the first time Junhui tried to hide something under a pillow. It was his usual move. Which could only mean that Junhui was definitely hiding something. Junhui himself realized that he was being obvious about it when he saw the scheming look that passed between Wonwoo and Mingyu. Next thing he knew, Wonwoo had easily slipped his hand under the couch pillow and brought his phone out. Before Junhui could get a chance to grab the phone, it was tossed to Mingyu, who caught it nicely.

Junhui pouted, "that's not fair, guys."

Mingyu tutted and shook his head, "what's not fair, Junhui, is you hiding something from us. So what's in the phone?"

"It's really nothing," Junhui said simply. "I accidentally texted somebody else because I got Wonwoo's number messed up."

"You're smiling because you texted a stranger?" Wonwoo said, raising an eyebrow. "I didn't think you were this desperate for social contact."

"I'm not, it was just an accident. It won't happen again. Besides, he introduced himself to me, so he's no longer a stranger. His name is Minghao."

Wonwoo's incoming 'stranger danger' sermon about how Junhui shouldn't just go around texting random people was cut off by Mingyu loudly cooing, "aw, Junhui made a friend!" Which was all Junhui needed before quickly snatching his phone back from Mingyu, who made no more attempts to fight back. The Chinese boy rolled his eyes and playfully shoved Mingyu away, while Wonwoo continued to keep his look of disapproval. The phone then disappeared into Junhui's back pocket.

 

 

[July 22, Friday] 

(1:02PM) I think we're out of cereal. 

(1:04PM) Why are you thinking of cereal at 1PM in the afternoon? 

(1:04PM) I need to eat something for lunch. Buy some on the way home. 

(1:05PM) . . . 

(1:05PM) What? 

(1:05PM) Junhui. 

(1:05PM) Yes? 

(1:06PM) Who am I?

(1:06PM) What kind of question is that, Wonwoo? 

(1:06PM) Do I need to send you my eye again? 

(1:07PM) Wait a minute... Minghao? 

(1:07PM) Good morning. 

(1:10PM) Or well, afternoon. 

(1:11PM) Okay, I finally got Wonwoo's number correctly. Sorry about that. 

(1:11PM) No problem. 

(1:12PM) I'm saving your number too, just in case.

Chapter 25: Another very sweet update, thank you! (And RIP Hansol, it was nice to have met him in this fic ^^')
It's cool that Jeonghan and Jisoo also technically met through texting! Also, I think Minghao has the only valid explanation for pouring in milk first before adding cereal...
I hope you're doing well, thank you for the update <3

Chapter 25: Oh my, it's been awhile! Hewwo!!!!
I can't wait till Minghao will willingly shower Junhui with compliments. I bet Junhui would look super cute getting flustered over Hao's words *u* But this happening is like 1 to the 10000000 XD Or Minghao should just get drunk lmao
I caaaaan't, Junhui and Minghao are so adorable together!!! I luv it so so much hehe

Chapter 24: Oh my god, you're back!!!!! This was such a pleasant surprise for today <3

This is again such a sweet chapter. Their date at the arcade is so cute~ Though I'm a bit surprised regarding Minghao's (and apparently everyone else's) reaction to Jun's decision for lemon ice cream... I don't know if that's something that changes depending on where you live, but I work in an ice cream parlor in Germany and especially when it's warm, there are actually a lot of people who order lemon (or other citrus fruits) ice cream...
But anyways, this was so sweet. I feel a bit bad for Minghao that Jun took the pictures despite the protest, but the description of the picture Jun got is so cute! Also, poor them for having to part ways faster than planned, though it was nevertheless an amazing few hours for them! And Jun saying that he 'ordered Mingyu' for dinner :D I'm glad that Minghao gave the only logical answer to that!

Thank you so much for this update~
