"one more day before the project and we can now say go bye to those good for nothing seniors! " Chen slammed shut his locker and faced his best friend with a big smile. He hooked arms with the other and proceeded to drag him to their fifth class of the day, Foreign language. "Gosh am I excited! "

"we can tell" Joshua grumbled from the back. Again he was being forgotten. If only Jin and Hiro were here he wouldn't be suffering of taking care of these two.

The trio reached their classroom. Joshua stopping in front of the door while Chen proceeded to walk. Joshua catching on what the mischievous butterfly was planning, caught the back collar of his blazer and proceeded to drag the two inside.

"so what did the two of you do after school? " Chen asked, eyes twinkling and placed his chin on top of his right knuckled. Joshua, who heard, stopped what he was doing and turned half of his body to Jehyun who was silent the whole day.

Jehyun shrugged, taking out his notebook and pencil. "we just helped each other for the project tomorrow"

Chen widen his eyes. "no doki doki? "

"do—what? " Joshua shook his head, realizing it was another weird term Chen Created on the spot.

"no, my heart was normal" jehyun proceeded to put a hand over his chest. He shook his head. "I don't know why I didn't react the same way with grizzly"

Chen smiled knowingly. He may or may not have forced the lion cub to spill what happened after that rainy day. Not only that but he may have stalked the two every chance he got. Joshua on the other hand was left clueless. Blinking twice, he looked at Chen who waved him off. "you said you didn't want to follow me"

Joshua scoffed and crossed his arms. "yeah and get caught, sometimes I wonder what goes on that head of yours"

Chen proceeded to point and jab his head. "this sir has wondrous ideas "

"wondrous ideas that fail" jehyun snorted. Chen's ideas are either half-baked or a failure with nothing in between. "again why am I friends with you"

Chen gasped, dramatically placing A hand on his chest. "why I am the legendary butterfly of Adams university! "

"yeah and you weren't a bitterfly yesterday" Joshau snorted before turning again to face his table, narrowly escaping Chen's wrath.

"Jung hoon? " Chen wondered why the council president was smiling down in them while they sat in their usual table int library. The senior brought with him his bag and thick English book. "what are you doing here? "

"ah I saw Jehyun and wanted to sit with him.. "

Chen fought the urge to roll his eyes at the older. Really? That's your excuse. Why Chen could have come up something better on the spot.

Joshua nudged the butterfly who was subconsciously frowning. "idiot smile"

Actually, Jung hoon wanted to spend sometime with jehyun. He didn't expect for the juniors other friends to tag along with him. In fact he was surprised when he saw Chen who was busy taking selfies.

"thanks" he took his seat beside Jehyun who smiled in return.

He wished everyday was like this. Spending time with Jehyun was paradise and the fact that jehyun only spent his time with him and not that annoying celebrity.

Speaking of the celebrity, he's happy that the younger was caught up with that audition of his to skip school. He should have thanked his cousin for letting the younger join. Man he wished that it would never end. That way he can get closer to Jehyun.

"don't you think it's weird" Chen whispered to Joshua. Joshua who sat beside him rolled his eyes. "yeah that you dragged me to another table so that you can spy on the two"

Chen smacked his arm and snarled. "no you idiot! Their closeness and I'm positive that Jung hoon likes Jehyun"

Joshua no longer wants to question it. He had better things to do such as practicing for tomorrow. "yeah and I'm positive that you're going to fail tomorrow"

"Can you stop" jehyun mumbled, hoping the older wouldn't hear it. "I'm confused "

"confused in what? " Jung hoon looked up from his book to look at the younger who was gripping his hair and was on the verge of pulling it.

"making me question things"

Chen threw his hands in the air, earning looks from other students while Joshua sat there in his seat remaining unbothered. He didn't want to look like he knew this weirdo.

"wah—is he dumb or what" the butterfly proceeded to point at his best friend, tapping Joshua to get his attention.

"I don't know, are you dumb or what? "

Jung hoon wanted to take the next step but he was nervous that the younger would reject him. Then again who would deny a perfect person like him. Surely that person is blind or something.

He silently watched Jehyun read his book, occasionally pouting whenever he didn't understand something. This made Jung hoon smile. Jehyun was pretty, probably the prettiest person he ever saw. OK that's an exaggeration but jehyun was pretty. Maybe this was what his noona meant when you will find the person you like as the prettiest person in the world.

"is there something on my face? "

Attractiveness. That's something on your face. Jung hoon wanted to move closer to the younger and maybe cup his adorable cheeks and profess right there. Maybe he can and maybe he should.

"should we save him? " Joshau heaved out another tired sigh As Chen bugged him again. He was this close in slamming the book he was reading on the butterfly's face to shut him up. "Chen, I don't think it's necessary. He's just looking at him"

"that's it" Chen tried to make his point by writing figures on a random piece of paper he saw. "he's admiring him! "

Joshua rolled his eyes. "yeah and I'm admiring how stupid you are"

"jehyun can I tell you something" it was now or never.

"ye—" the sound of jehyun's phone ringing interrupted him. Jehyun excused himself and went to answer his phone, a confused expression on his face as he left to answer the call outside the library.

"who do you think called? " Chen whispered, looking at jehyun's figure who disappeared behind the door. Joshua let out a dishearted grunt. "huh Josh"

Calming himself down, Joshua looked at the butterfly straight in the eye. This made Chen move back little. "I think I'm going to hit you"

Jung hoon fidgeted in his seat. He shouldn't be that nervous.. He practiced plenty of times. Even doing it in front of his brother which earned a teasing.

This just just some confession not a debate or a dinner speech with his family. Jehyun is someone normal. He should calm down.

"sorry about that" he looked up and was greeted with jehyun's bright smile.

He shook his head. "nah it's ok. So as I was say—where are you going? " he watched as the younger started packing.

"they need me in the station" he simply said as he hoisted up his book bag. "and thing you were gonna tell me can you me tomorrow? "

"ah of course. Take care on your way"

"yeah, thanks"

"where is he going? " Chen watched as his best friend ran out of the library. He didn't need to nudge Joshua since the older was looking the same direction as he was. "what's he doing? " he watched Jung hoon ruffle his hair and say something in Manderin. "at times like this I wish Jin was here"

Joshua rolled his eyes. "really? And we take foreign language "
