-

it was truly a long day.

after the scavenger hunt and lunch, they had to do team building activities which involved a lot of wood collecting and competitions. luckily, most of sooyoung's team members have been blessed with athletic abilities aside from her and byeol.

she was fairly surprised with how strong jongho and minjee were. the two did most of the work in terms of endurance and strength, with some help from yeosang. jihae and wooyoung did the planning and dividing of task while also participating in some physical stuff. seonghwa did whatever his girlfriend told him, sometimes just do things for her. byeol and sooyoung just basically stood there.

sooyoung thought that yeosang's girlfriend was a sweetheart. too much of a sweetheart. the kind of sweetheart that she wanted to protect but at the same time wanted to exploit.

byeol was annoyingly kind to the point where sooyoung thought it would be better for her to be roasted in hell rather than be surrounded by people like byeol in heaven.

byeol actually insisted in helping but yeosang didn't let her, saying, "i'm not risking it. you have asthma." she really couldn't argue because she literally don't know how to.

the two unathletic girls just gave their team moral support and a bottle of water once in a while.

after that, all the students were required to attend the campfire where they sang cheesy songs and told predictable stories while suffering from the heat of the enormous flame they were surrounding. training for hell, i guess.

now that the day was finally over, the four girls were back in their room, freshening up.

sooyoung felt soreness spreading in her body as she massaged her shoulder. she laid eyes upon the pain relievers wooyoung had given her and found herself unconsciously smiling.

"where'd you get that?" jihae peeked from behind.

"oh, paramedics." she sheepishly replied as that's what she recalled.

the other tented her brows. "we don't have paramedics."

"huh?"

"i mean, we have the school nurse but i doubt she has pain relievers, especially those kind."

it was sooyoung's turn to be confused. "then where did wooyoung-" she abruptly pressed her lips together, realizing she said that out loud. i really have a problem with keeping my thoughts to myself.

jihae had an astonished look on her face. "wooyoung?"

the other girls' ears perked when they heard what the two were talking about.

"fine, he gave these to me 'cause he knows i get bruised easily. big deal?" she crossed her arms, shrugging it off despite feeling warmth in her cheeks.

"are guys getting back together?" the school officer asked naturally.

"no! it was an act of kindness."

jihae's face was filled with doubt. "after what you did to him?"

sooyoung almost couldn't stop an eye roll, a bit annoyed that jihae was getting too comfortable with those jokes. "shut up. you don't know our entire story."

"well, you made the ending pretty tragic." casually told the other.

byeol, who sensed some tension rising, decided to talk. "eonnie, i don't think it's our business."

jihae now became aware of the atmosphere the others were feeling. she faced sooyoung. "too far?"

"tell me how you met your boyfriend and we'll call it even." the girl simply answered which resulted a chuckle from the older.

"fuck buddies."

"what?!" sooyoung and minjee exclaimed as byeol gasped loudly.

"yep. i wanted to relieve some stress that didn't include me smelling and throwing up. i met hwa at this party and we banged. met him again, banged again, and again, and it went on for some time before we both ignored each other for, like, four months because we knew we had feelings for one another."

"he didn't wanna commit?" sooyoung questioned, not believing it. "but he's so clingy."

jihae snickered at that. "well, he was the first one who admitted he liked me and i tried pushing him away. i guess now that were actually together, he just wanna make sure we'll stay that way."

minjee squealed as she clapped her hands. "oh, to be loved by someone who loves you more."

"that idiot has nothing to worry about. i'm not going anywhere." the eldest had a grin on her face thinking about her partner.

"that was cute." sooyoung was also getting excited by these stories. "never knew ms. responsible could be so freaky."

"hey, i'm the eldest daughter in an asian household. i was bound to reach my breaking point." jihae says, byeol laughing at that.

sooyoung never felt any pressure so she couldn't really relate.

"how 'bout you, byeol? kang yeosang literally looks ready to die for you." minjee looks towards the mentioned girl with glee.

"yeah, byeol. yeo never told us how you guys met."

"i- uhm, well..." the shy girl plays with the sleeve of her pajamas. "it's not really that interesting. we just met at social gatherings and one night became friends."

sooyoung raised an eyebrow. "i don't think yeosang is the friendly type."

"something h-happened, but i'm not sure if i'm allowed to say."

"it's okay, byeol!" the shortest puts an arm around her shoulder. "no matter how you two met, you guys still look cute."

"your turn, minjee." jihae ushers.

"what?" minjee looks over to her with clueless eyes. "i don't have a boyfriend."

that statement earned her a scoff. "oh, that's hilarious. choi jongho? i don't believe nothing happened between you two."

"and you never told me about that talk you had." sooyoung added.

"you're not together?" byeol also queried, trying her best not to look too surprised.

"no, uhm," minjee shakes her head as she started, making the others expect something. "we just decided to stay friends."

the other had their mouth agape and silence filled the room as those words were spilled.

"bitch?"

"yeah, so," the shortest gave the most awkward laugh of the night.

the girls had fun talking to each other and were actually planning to stay up all night until a teacher knocked on their door, telling them that they should already be asleep in ten minutes with the lights off and they weren't allowed to go out of their rooms anymore. otherwise, their points would get deducted.

so, with jihae's mom-like attitude, she told the others to get into bed and sleep to not get into any trouble. and that's exactly what they did.

well, at least it's what sooyoung tried to do.

after what felt like hours of shifting positions on her bed, she decided to lift her torso from the mattress. she knows she isn't supposed to step out of the room but she needs to go to the bathroom. well, not really, but she did need an excuse to walk around.

she scanned the three other girls who already seemed so relaxed as they drifted off to dreamland.

making her way to the door, she made sure to keep quiet—which she was already an expert of due to sneaking out—and exited the room.

as she got out, she squinted her eyes for them to adjust to the hallway's darkness. the first thing she saw was a silhouette, seemingly fiddling with the doorknob of one of the rooms on their floor.

being the fearless brat she is, she marched closer to it, furrowing her eyebrows. she touched the figure, making it flinch.

"why the fuck are you still out?" wooyoung cursed, clutching his chest. he almost threw a punch but managed to halt.

"stop cursing. i'm not used to it." sooyoung whispered. "and why are you here?"

"i got locked out." he tilted his head to the side.

"try knocking?"

"wow, why haven't i thought of the most obvious thing to do?" the lilac says filled with sarcasm as he did a thinking pose.

the girl gave his shoulder a push, irritated by his tone. "calling them?"

"left my phone inside."

she was about to offer her device when she realized she left it as well. "i can get my phone and you can call them with it?"

"when did you become so generous?" the boy asked with a little teasing.

"learned from the best." she gave the same reply wooyoung gave her on the bus, amusing the other. "come on, let's get my phone."

the two walked back to the girl's room.

"hey, where'd you get those pain relievers?" sooyoung questioned out of curiosity.

"told you, paramedics."

"jihae said there were none."

she didn't look at him but she could feel him wince, like he got caught.

he cleared his throat. "there's a pharmacy a few blocks away. i figured getting you those would be better than hearing you complain." he tried explaining in a really rushed manner.

sooyoung heart did a little flip out of joy. "thanks."

wooyoung glances at her. "you're saying thanks a lot more than you used to."

"well, somebody taught me to appreciate things more." though she didn't say who, they both knew who she meant and that made wooyoung flushed.

"wait here." due to his heart skipping beats, he didn't notice that they were already in front of their intended destination.

wooyoung did wait. but that was until he heard the elevator ding, causing him to immediately enter the girls' room out of reflex.

"hey, what-"

"sh, i think a teacher's checking this floor."

"well, i was just about to tell you that my phone's dead."

wooyoung mentally groaned, starting to get frustrated why he got locked out when all he wanted to do was take a leak. "thanks, anyway."

"just sleep here." sooyoung ushered.

the boy blinked a few times. it wasn't a bad idea. jihae would probably let him off the hook and he would much rather do this than get nagged at by a teacher the next morning. "really?"

"yeah, it's not like it's the first time we slept in one bed."

wooyoung arched an eyebrow, smirking a bit. "i was thinking the floor?"

the girl's eyes widened, ears and cheeks heating up as she promptly turned around. "freeze to death, then. do whatever you want."

the boy poked his cheek with his tongue to avoid grinning, following her from behind.
