After 1 week...

~Kim Jongin~

I carried Kyungsoo's bag from his chair with a frown. "What time will you come back here?" i asked as he took the bag from me. Papunta na siya kay Baek kasi nga, mag rereview silang dalawa para sa exams which is next week na.

Kyungsoo looked at me and smiled. "I'll be back when you're both finished." Then he gestured at Chanyeol who is now sitting on his chair, eating crackers while reading.

I reached out for his hand. "You could still change your mind, you know?" i said and smirked.

Kyungsoo glared at me and shook his head slowly. Ugh. He's really cute. He's too cute. It's too much. I just want to kiss him all day... kiss every part of his face.

"Fine." I said with a sigh.

Kyungsoo stepped forward and pecked me just beside my lips. "I'll be back." He whispered and with that, he walked out of the door and closed it with a gentle thud.

Napatingin ako kay Chanyeol at nakita siyang nakatingin sakin. "Okay ka lang?" tanong niya sabay taas ng isang kilay. "Hindi naman siya matutulog doon kay Baek, kung makasimangot ka diyan." Sita pa niya saka umiling.

I sat back on my chair and glared at him. "Don't touch any of his things, okay?" i hissed. "Kapag may nawala diyan-"

"Nagpaalam ako!" sigaw ni Chanyeol sabay irap. "I asked to use his laptop and some papers for scratch."

I threw him a disgusted glare before opening my own book. When you talk about group study in our case, it's more like you read on your own and when you don't know something, you'll ask you study partner. So Chanyeol and i discussed about Math for hours.

"I'll try to solve that." He said as we stared at a problem.

He reached for a notebook under Kyungsoo's desk and opened it. Magsusulat na sana siya nang mapatigil siya bigla. He frowned and glanced at me for a second then back at the notebook.

"What is it?" i asked and tried to peek on the notebook he's reading.

" 'I have an ice for a roommate!' " Chanyeol said while grinning. "Oh man. Bakit sinungitan mo agad si Kyungsoo sa unang araw niya dito?!"

I frowned at him. "What the hell are you saying?"

Chanyeol pointed at the notebook and chuckled. " 'I have an ice for a roommate! Swerte ko no? Kala naman kung sinong gwapo!' " he read while laughing. "Kyungsoo hated you! Hahaha!"

My eyes went wide. "That's Kyungsoo's journal?!"

Chanyeol nodded and when he flipped the next page, i pulled it away from his hand. "Hey!" he whined. "Give that back!"

"Chanyeol! This is Kyungsoo's journal!" i hissed at him. "Sa tingin mo ba gusto niyang basahin natin to? This is something... private."

Chanyeol looked at me before shaking his head while grinning. "I bet you'll read it, too." he said between laughs. "Somebody's journal is something really interesting to read. "

"I am not reading this!" i hissed at him. Napatingin ako sa notebook na hawak ko at isasara na sana ito nang mabasa ko yung pangalan ko. I frowned and read that one line.

"I promise not to look at Kim Jongin's body again! Ayoko na talaga. Hindi ko kinaya. T^T"

I let out a laugh. "Kyungsoo, really." i whispered while shaking my head. And before i knew it, i am flipping the pages, reading everything he wrote on it. There are drawings, random doodles, letters and everything.

"Maiinlove daw ako sa Jongin niya? ABA! Kanyang-kanya na ah! Psh."

"Well you did." i muttered under my breath.

"Am i really inlove with Kim Jongin? Bat ba ganito mga nararamdaman ko? Do i really like him? Like... seriously?"

I laughed at his last journal entry. I looked at the drawings and saw labels like:

"I tried to draw his smirk. It doesn't work." [Beside is a drawing of my face with an awkward smirk.]

"When he smiles... it's like sunshine." [Then there's a drawing of me under a sun.]

"This heart keeps on making wild mistakes." [Then a drawing of a heart with a large 'x' on it.]

"He holds my hand and i feel really warm inside." [Drawing of two hands holding.]

The next pages are random phrases written in different colors. Kyungsoo used different kind of ballpens just to emphasize some words or letters:

"This camping is fun. Being with him is fun."

"The blue rose."

"Beautiful. Beautiful. He said i am beautiful."

"Confused"

"This is wrong."

"He kissed me."

"On the lips..."

"Why?"

"My heart... it beats like crazy."

"Why why why?"

I flipped the next page slowly and gasped as what welcomed me is a whole page with my name written on every space of it. He used different colors and styles. But... they're all my name.

"Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin...Kim Jongin..."

I turned the last page and smiled.

"I love him."

I closed the notebook and sighed. I smiled to myself as i traced the notebook's spine with my finger. He really do loves pouring out his feelings into something. Chanyeol is now busy writing on his paper that he didn't even notice me reading the journal.

I was about to return the notebook under Kyung's desk when a folded paper slipped from the notebook and to the floor. I picked it up immediately and unfolded.

It was the drawing i gave him during the camping.

My eyes travelled down to the note i wrote.

"He said to draw something that makes us feel good and wonderful.

I think.. you made me feel more than that."

Below that note, Kyungsoo wrote something with his very messy handwriting:

"You did too. Thank you, Kim Jongin."

I slipped the paper back inside the notebook and placed it back under Kyungsoo's desk. Chanyeol is already halfway down the solution and i returned to my book to continue solving. A laugh slipped my mouth as i remembered everything Kyungsoo had written on his journal.

He's really cute.

~Do Kyungsoo~

At the end of the day, malapit na kaming matapos ni Baek nang may kumatok sa pinto. Agad na tumayo si Baekhyun para papasukin ang isang Kim Jongdae na nakangiti samin. May hawak siyang malaking clipboard.

"Anong meron?" tanong sakanya ni Baek sabay taas ng isang kilay.

Umupo si Chen sa tabi ko. "May lakad ba kayo after ng exam week?"

Tumango naman ako agad. "Meron." sagot ko. "Kasama ko si Jongin." Pupunta kami kay Mommy para ipakilala siya. Alam ko kasing gusto niyang makilala si Jongin at syempre, i don't really like hiding things from my mother.

"Talagang super close na kayo ni Jongin ah." nakangiting sabi ni Chen. Binigyan ko naman siya ng isang tipid na ngiti.

"We're close friends." sagot ko.

Napatingin si Chen kay Baek.

"Magcecelebrate ako after ng exams?" hindi sure na sagot ni Baekhyun at bumalik sa pwesto niya. "Bakit ba?"

"This is about the Annual EXO-Academy Festival na gaganapin after ng exams." masayang sabi ni Chen. "As the president of the XOXO Student Council, kailangan nating magtulungan. Lalo ka na, Baek. Officer ka kaya!"

Baekhyun rolled his eyes. "Yes. Kami ni Yeol." sabi niya. "Alam ko. Duh?"

"But.. i need Kyungsoo this time." sabi ni Chen sabay ngisi sakin. "Will you help us?"

I shifted on my seat. "Uhh.. para saan?"

"Fund raising." nakangisi parin na sabi ni Chen. Tinaas niya ang isa niyang kilay. "Ang pera na malilikom natin ay pupunta sa isang orphanage at isang institution na tumutulong sa mga cancer patients."

"Sige." sagot ko habang nakakunot noo. "A-ano... ano bang gagawin ko?"

Tumayo si Chen saka pinat ako ng isang beses sa balikat. "I just need a 'Yes' for now. I'll tell you about it after the exams." Nakangisi na sabi niya.
