Jisung laid down into Jaemin's waiting arms, smiling as Jaemin pressed a kiss to his cheek before looking up at the starry sky.

Jaemin made his heart drop then soar, and his cheeks turn red. "Look!" Jaemin said excitedly, pointing up at the sky. Jisung was too busy staring at Jaemin's side profile to look where he was pointing, Jisung's eyes tracing the slope of Jaemin's nose, the plumpness of his lips, and the way his eyes came back to him. "You didn't look," Jaemin pouted.

"Sorry," Jisung whispered, and Jaemin smiled a little.

"It was a shooting star, and I made a wish."

"What was it?"

"I wished you'd say yes to the next question I ask."

"Which is?"

"Will you be my boyfriend? I mean, I think it's obvious I like you a lot, even though we've known each other for about seven months now and you said you wouldn't want to date a college kid, well, I just want to know."

"Yes,"

"Are you sure? I don't want you to feel like you have to date me because I said that. And yes I will get busy sometimes but I will make time for you if you're serious so -"

So Jisung shut him up in the best way possible. Jaemin let out a gasp as Jisung pulled him into a kiss, Jisung pulling him in and kissing him passionately, Jaemin recovering quickly and kissing back before Jisung pulled away.

"My answer is yes Jaemin, the answer is yes. I want to date you."

Jaemin smiled and cuddled into Jisung, playing with his hair as Jisung breathed out softly, cuddling into Jaemin.

"Jisung?"

"Yes?"

"You won't regret this."

"What the fuck?" Donghyuck asked, looking at Mark, who was sitting in his beanbag chair. "Mark it's five in the morning. How did you get in?"

"I want to ask Jeno out."

"How did you get in?"

"I still have a key from my fling with Sicheng. Anyways, how should I ask him out?"

"First things first probably getting rid of that key?" Hyuck asked, sitting down and groaning.

"How's being pregnant?"

"Everything hurts," Donghyuck muttered. "Anyways, Jeno likes books, boring things, plushies, EXO, ShinEE, and horror stuff. He doesn't do much other than study."

"What I'm hearing is an old fashioned ask-out with a poster and music."

"You know he'd probably love that." Donghyuck sighed. "Now can I go back to sleep?"

"I need your help choosing stuff at the craft store," Mark whined.

"When are you asking him?"

"Today after class?"

"What time does his class end?"

"He has one at four that ends at six then he's going to the library."

"So we do not need to do anything now."

"Please?" Mark asked, looking nervous. "I never really asked someone out. And I want it to be special for him."

"That's soft. Okay, I'll help. Let's go."

"Seriously?"

"Yes, now move."

"Hell yeah!"

"Don't yell Mark!"

"Fine."

"Why are you getting dressed?" Renjun asked sleepily, seeing Chenle getting ready.

"Well, I have an eight o'clock class."

"A class?" Renjun asked, and Chenle nodded.

"I'm in the performing arts program at SMU. Didn't you know?"

"You're going to school with me?"

"I have to get my education don't I?" Chenle asked, and Renjun tackled him into a hug, bringing him down onto the bed and kissing all over Chenle's face before Chenle took his face into his hands and gently kissed him, Chenle's tongue slipping into Renjun's mouth.

Renjun gasped, pulling away. "Chenle!"

"Yes?" Chenle asked innocently, kissing down Renjun's jaw and neck.

"What in the world are you -" Renjun bit his bottom lip as Chenle bit down on his sweet spot, forming a dark bruise. "What was that for?"

"Just making sure the world knows you're mine!" Chenle chirped. "Now let's get dressed, it's time for me to head out." Renjun laid there, stunned, before heading downstairs to see Jeno cooking breakfast, Chenle taking a piece of toast and waving goodbye.

"What's that on your neck?" Jeno asked innocently, and Renjun flushed red.

"It's called a hickey," Renjun muttered. "Ask Mark about it."

"I did a while ago, but Mark didn't show me." Jeno pouted. Renjun sighed softly and looked at his best friend, patting his shoulder.

"Ask again." Renjun began to eat then Jeno talked again.

"Don't you have an eight o'clock class today Jun?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's Monday. Don't you have sociology at eight?" Renjun looked at the clock, then his phone, then grabbed his backpack and raced out of the apartment, still in his pyjamas.

Mark finished putting blue glitter on the poster, biting his lip nervously. "It looks great. What song are you using?"

"Odd Eye by ShinEE." Mark replied, and Donghyuck nodded his approval.

"You got this." Mark sighed as Donghyuck offered him the giant speaker Yukhei had for parties and headed to the library, barely a ten minute walk from the fraternity house. It was six thirty which meant Jeno was definitely in the library, and so he nervously switched on the music and unravelled his poster.

Jeno, meanwhile, was utterly confused as to why Odd Eye by ShinEE was playing. Was someone getting engaged? They were at a pretty hormonal college, he wouldn't be surprised.

Then his phone buzzed.

Hyuckie ( ◠‿◠ )
Go outside.

Jeno frowned but got up and went to the front of the library, opening the door to reveal Mark standing there with a crowd of people filming him, Odd Eye playing and a giant poster that said "Jeno, if you become my boyfriend I'll live up to all of your Great Expectations."

Jeno smiled at that and ran down the steps to tackle Mark into a hug and press their lips together, not even caring who saw them. Which would be the whole internet.

Mark smiled widely when Jeno pulled away, looking at him adoringly. "So that's a yes?"

"A billion times yes Mark!" Jeno exclaimed, pulling him in for another kiss amidst the cheering of the other students.

"Good, I was worried." Mark whispered.

"You're cute," Jeno giggled, running his hand through Mark's hair. "C'mon, I have to go study and it wouldn't hurt you to do so as well."

"Way to expose me."

"Get used to it Mark," Jeno hummed, lacing his hand with Mark's.

"You're perfect," Mark suddenly said, and Jeno giggled.

"So are you."

"This is what I'm working on," Jaemin said, smiling at Jisung. Jaemin was wearing shorts and a giant tank top, much too big for him. Jisung was trying really hard not to gawk at his boyfriend, because who wouldn't gawk at that physique. "Like what you see?" Jaemin teased.

"Yes," Jisung replied with zero hesitation.

"W-well good I like what I see too," Jaemin managed. It was dark out, and Jisung had gotten his homework finished on Jaemin's insistence before going out with him. The greenhouse was illuminated as Jisung back hugged Jaemin, making Jaemin giggle. "When did you get so bold?"

"Maybe when you kissed me?"

"I haven't kissed you today though."

"You can fix that," Jisung hummed, and Jaemin about choked.

"When did you get so confident?"

"Do you not like it?" Jisung asked, and Jaemin turned to look at him.

"I like everything about you Sungie, and I just want to make sure you're not trying to change yourself because you're with me." Jaemin gently pecked the corner of Jisung's lips and smiled.

"O-oh." Jisung smiled a little, and looked at Jaemin. "I thought you'd like more confidence, so I was just trying it."

"I like you Jisung. You, all of you and only you." Jaemin bopped Jisung's nose, making Jisung giggle shyly. "So if you want to be confident go right ahead."

"I think I'd rather be yours." Jaemin gasped then squeezed Jisung's cheeks, making the younger boy giggle.

"Good think you are mine." Jaemin let go of Jisung's cheeks and gave him another peck, this time on the lips.

"Cheesy," Jisung fake gagged, and Jaemin pouted.

"No kisses."

"Wait, I didn't mean it!"

"Uh-huh."

"Nana," Jisung pouted, and Jaemin looked at him.

"Yes?"

"My hands are cold." Jisung stuck his somehow freezing hands into Jaemin's shirt, Jaemin gasping as his hands solidly stuck onto his stomach, and squealed.

"Sungie it's cold!"

"I think a kiss will make me better," Jisung teased, and Jaemin rolled his eyes playfully.

"This is bad, you're becoming addicted to my kisses," Jaemin teased right back before Jisung swept him into a deep kiss, Jaemin biting his bottom lip and exploring Jisung's mouth, enjoying the soft moan that escaped Jisung. "Cutie."

"Adorable," Jisung chuckled.

"It's getting late though, we should head out."

"I don't want to go home tonight," Jisung pouted. "I want to cuddle you."

"I'll check with your mom if you can stay the night."

"She'll say yes."

Jaemin took out his phone and texted Ms. Park, smiling when the response came back. "She said to use protection."

"I -"

"Let's go cuddle then," Jaemin hummed.

Two more chapters! And I'm sick again, really badly. I might be going to hospital, yay.
