He shook his head at her reply before the third text message made him burst into laughter, dropping his phone, where it slid over his pillow and nearly fell past the headboard, causing him to cry out in panic and scramble for it. He was grateful that Yoona had already left for class and thus he didn’t have to worry about waking her up.

[ text ; suji ] ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ that analogy definitely didn’t work!!

[ text ; suji ] i have to go to class, bah. i’ll text you back later ~

When he got to their shared literature class, he blinked in surprise — she wasn’t there, and he could only wonder why. They’d talked just an hour or two ago before he’d had to run for class yet again (the second time since the morning), so it was strange that she wasn’t here when he knew she was awake. 

[ text ; suji ] where are youuuuu?

[seongsuji]

After receiving his texts about going to class, she sent a quick “okay ttyl” to him before allowing herself to blissfully return to the world of dreams. ( Or in her case, peaceful darkness. ) The buzzing on her bed woke her up and it took her a second to realize that she had fallen asleep again. Rubbing at her eyes, Suji quickly typed a reply. 

( text » cute hongbin ) in bed ~ 

( text » cute hongbin ) cough cough i think i caught a cold or something …

[ / her face expressions changed into a surprise one ] Really? I would have thought but I can see what you mean. If you get something a lot, you’ll get tired of it eventually. [ / an amused laugh slips out her lips ] That’s some real dedication! I couldn’t even do that to even my favorite dishes. 

[ / nods understandingly ] I know what you mean. But I’ve learned that friends help you along the way with any situation you’re under. I guess they are like, your personal motivation guide. And I’m sure you have a lot. [ / pokes the younger cheeks and sighs ] Ah, Suji. Don’t be like that. Do you really want to?

[seongsuji]

Exaaaaactly. ( `/ draws out the word as if to put special emphasis on her point ) And that can't happen with me and pizza or I'll be heartbroken. ( `/ nods, a very serious expression on her face ) I don't even know what happened to make me like it so much, honestly. But I wouldn't change it for anything ~

That's true too ... ( `/ glances upwards in thought, her fingers going to her chin as if mocking how some people thought, rubbing it gently ) Hmm. ( `/ nods slowly as well, taking in the words before heaving a slight sigh ) Don't be like what? ( `/ gives a small, innocent smile even though she knows exactly what she's doing )

He chuckled softly despite having been woken from sleep, rolling over and burying his nose in his pillows before typing back a short message with a yawn. He really didn’t want to get up for class, but he had to. (Well, that, and he had class with her later and as much as he didn’t want to admit it, he was starting to really like the time they spent together.) 

[ text ; suji ] aw. it would have been nice if you had though ㅋㅋㅋ

[ text ; suji ] this is true. sleep and food are great distractors

[ text ; suji ] … that’s a good point. i ended up taking chinese and idk what i’m doing, so… 

[seongsuji]

Blinking blearily at her phone, she closed her eyes as she waited for a reply, almost drifting off again but the loud buzzing of the text messages being received shocked her out of it. Yeah, she definitely wasn’t going to class that day. Thank God she had people in all of her classes that she could ask for notes from. 

( text » cute hongbin ) … but i don’t. so hah!

( text » cute hongbin ) mostly food. like pizza. mmmmmmm ~

( text » cute hongbin ) HAHA. we’re both in the same boat. kinda. same boat different oceans … idk what analogy i was trying to make but i don’t think it worked.

( text » cute hongbin ) i’m sleepy, ignore me

[xseonghongbin]

He’d waited up a while for her reply, but after about fifteen minutes, it became clear that she had fallen asleep. Not that he blamed her for it, it was late after all. Setting his phone down, he allowed himself to drift off to sleep, only to wake to the buzzing of his phone the next morning. 

[ text ; suji ] ahh, it’s okay, don’t worry about it! why don’t you believe me, you should! ):

[ text ; suji ] clearly i wasn’t that big of a distraction, you fell asleep! ㅋㅋㅋ

[ text ; suji ] why didn’t you take another english lit class? you’re fluent, it should be easy, right?

[seongsuji]

Rolling onto her side, she bunched her blankets up slightly before tucking them under her chin, eyes on her phone. She really didn’t feel like going to class today … maybe she would just stay home and sketch. Or watch a movie. (She would probably end up watching a movie.)

( text » cute hongbin ) because i don’t. simple as that

( text » cute hongbin ) my usual distractions from studying are either sleep or food, and sleep won this time

( text » cute hongbin ) because one shakespeare play is enough to last me a semester okay

You remind me of my youngest sister. -the fact rolled off his tongue in a faint smile, Khun loves his siblings dearly and being away like this, he missed them quite a bit so it was refreshing to find likenesses of them like this, not that Suji was completely like her but still… the rough exterior bit was the only thing, really, but it was still something, and something he knew how to handle, nonetheless- Ah, yeah. I think it’s one of the essential places. You know it or you starve. -he chuckled, looking over towards the shorter party with a question that itched to be asked but he used his reserve to hold it in for now, having a feeling the woman would just delve more into her shell-

[seongsuji]

( `/ raises an eyebrow at the other's words ) I do? ( `/ shrugs, not knowing how to reply to something like that since she herself didn't have any siblings nor anyone who even acted like a younger or older sibling for her so she wasn't sure how that felt, honestly ) Pretty much. It's like my second home. Or ... ( `/ trails off, considering her words carefully ) Maybe my third. I think Starbucks is my real second home. ( `/ there's a small smile at her own words though it's quickly smothered back underneath her emotionless expression that she usually wore when she was walking around the school and not with people she liked ) It's probably one of the first places anyone learns once they come to Seongnam. 

[seongsuji]

▹ i'm still alive —

( `/ walking through the halls after the last class of that day and she's debating if she should stop at Starbucks for some coffee and maybe a snack, her eyes and hands busy with putting the clasp on her backpack on properly and she full on walks into someone and she jumps backwards, bowing ) Sorry. ( `/ says, voice void of emotion before she glances up and her eyes widen ) Wai -- Mark?

He yawned, reaching for a throw blanket and flinging it over his legs, leaning back against his pillows contentedly, his glasses slightly askew on his face as he peered at his phone when it buzzed. Studying was way too exhausting, he decided with a soft huff. 

[ text — suji ] aw. you had my hopes up for a moment.

[ text — suji ] i’ll be a less decent distraction ~ i’ll try at least haha. and aw c:

[ text — suji ] oh, you study japanese? haha i get what you mean about the kanji though

[seongsuji]

She had fallen asleep whilst waiting for his reply, much too comfortable on her bed to have really done anything besides that and it was with a jolt that Suji woke up the next morning to the sunlight streaming through her windows. Shit, she thought, scrambling for her phone to check for the messages.

( text » cute hongbin ) sorry, i fell asleep … and no, i still don’t believe you!

( text » cute hongbin ) we’ll see now, won’t we

( text » cute hongbin ) yeah, i took it for fun because i didn’t want to take anything else? but i hate it

{ / blinks confused as to what is happening, he can’t help but to feel somewhat bewildered until he hears a familiar voice. he turns right when suji’s hands drops from his face and pouts. } “Hey! This isn’t funny. You were going to let me go through the entire campus just to find you, weren’t you?” { / breaks out into a smile. } “But I do get that ice cream now, right? Since I did find you.”

[seongsuji]

( `/ can't help but grin at his accusation ) Maybe. ( `/ tilts her head, rubbing her chin ) I probably would've actually just sneakily followed you around so you would never have actually found me until I decided to reveal myself. ( `/ nods, that sounding much more like something that she would say ) Mm. ( `/ blinks ) Actually, I found you so that means I get ice cream. You wouldn't have found me if I didn't sneak up on you.

Depends on the tutor. -he corrected her in the same smooth voice of his; truly he had had some of different subjects that were just a pain to deal with, either too boring or too cruel but he left that subject matter with that; chortling, he shrugged only his left shoulder now to keep his hanging backpack on his right from swinging again- I guess I am obvious then but I seem to at least be grasping the concept of this whole campus layout better than I thought. -his lips twitched into something of a smile, the way she spoke reminded him of his littlest sister, ornery and guarded but adorable all at once without meaning to be, she’d probably kick your leg if you so much as brought up her cuteness and he felt this Suji girl would do the same so he strode up along side of her, creating shorter steps so his long legs wouldn’t go past her in their strides- I think I will. Maybe you can show me a new way to wherever it is you’re going without even meaning to.

[seongsuji]

Mm. That's true. ( `/ acknowledges his point easily because it was true because if she had gotten a bad tutor there would've been no point whatsoever in getting a tutor in the first place and she guessed it was better her way in which she had learned English herself and forced herself to speak it without an accent that she was so nicely fluent now, and she was thankful for that at least ) That's good. ( `/ says lightly, shrugging, not caring in general anymore and now just saying things to try to continue the conversation because it would be awkward if she just shut up and made him talk, though the thought of that was tempting to say the least ) At least you're not actually getting lost. ( `/ continues walking towards the food court, mentally debating on what she wanted to eat for lunch that day as it was lunch time and she was hungry and she had had cold pizza for breakfast that morning and there wasn't really a point in getting more pizza. Maybe past ) Well, I'm going to get food, so it's up to you if you want to go to the food court or not. I'm sure you've been there plenty of times since you got here.

[ / amusingly chuckles ] I’m surprised that you’re not working at a pizza parlor! But I’m sure there are other concoctions that is available. Have you eaten pizza with spinach before? It’s actually very good. Also, bell peppers is also a delightful thing to eat. [ / pauses before bellowing out a laugh ] Okay, now I just sound like a plan vegan. I think you’ll like pasta too!

[ / nods ] I do too. But I don’t know, lately I want to stop… being cooped up in my room and be more open. [ / smiles and blinks confusingly ] Because I want to! Don’t worry. You’re worth it, so don’t pay. I’m older anyway. [ / playfully sticks our her tongue ] 

[seongsuji]

( `/ blinks, a bit surprised at the thought ) Nah. I'd never want to work in a pizza parlor. I know someone who used to like coffee and worked in a coffee shop and ended up hating it. ( `/ shakes her head ) Nothing will ever tear me and my love for pizza apart. Nothing. ( `/ places her hand over her heart like a Scout's honor and nods solemnly ) We are connected for life. ( `/ nods a bit ) Pasta is always nice. I think I just really like Italian food.

( `/ sighs loudly ) I want to say that I feel the same way but ... I don't. ( `/ laughs lightly ) I like staying cooped up in my room. Having friends is such a hassle. ( `/ scowls a bit at the thought ) I don't mind you though -- but you should let me pay. ( `/ frowns )

He grinned at the replies he got, deeming it as permission to continue bothering her. He was rather pleased with this turn of events. Her little messages were quite the amusement and he found himself smiling more than he would have expected to, his books forgotten on his desk.

[ text — suji ] but you don’t get one so does this mean you believe me? hehe

[ text — suji ] decent as in i’m really distracting or decent as in you don’t mind?

[ text — suji ] sorry hehe. what were you doing ~

[seongsuji]

She leaned forward a bit to make sure the book she had pushed to the ground hadn’t fallen open when it landed, letting out a little sigh of relief when it had landed perfectly on its back, the cover still closed. Rolling onto her stomach, Suji tucked the pillow under her arms as she rested on her elbows to text him back.

( text » cute hongbin ) ….. nope.

( text » cute hongbin ) decent as you’re really distracting. and … i guess i don’t mind. too much. 

( text » cute hongbin ) japanese. i hate kanji.

With his cheek pressed into his pillow, it was all too easy to stop thinking about schoolwork and start thinking about naps. He’d gotten so used to having as much sleep as he wanted (since his nights had previously been interrupted by nausea) that it was weird, even after two years, to not be able to sleep whenever he felt like it.

[ text — suji ] you don’t get a nobel prize for intelligence do you???

[ text — suji ] sorry, am i distracting you?

[ text — suji ] well you’re texting me back so maybe you’re okay with it? :D

[seongsuji]

Pulling her pillow closer to her so that she could rest her chin on it gently, she cuddled it close to her before pushing her textbook even further away from her with her foot, watching it blankly as it toppled over the edge of her bed and plopped onto the floor. She’d study again … later. 

( text » cute hongbin ) …. well if you did, i wouldn’t believe you until i touched it

( text » cute hongbin ) i’ve been distracted since before you texted me

( text » cute hongbin ) this is a … decent distraction though

Mhm. -he nodded and carried on- Born and raised but I went to the states often for these “family things” and so I got an English tutor. -a lopsided soft smile appeared, he had liked his English tutor quite a bit, he was like an older brother to the male and they got along on many levels, mentioning him simply like this often brought up fond memories of his lessons and time spent with him; Khun nodded once more, affirming her question yet again- I just arrived here about a week ago. I guess I really stand out, hu? -he was laughing now, a stalker?? Khun had many back home but to be questioned as one himself was more than amusing- Stalker? No no no. Heh~ -settling himself, he scratched over his left cheek- I just would like to escort you where you need to go- You can decline if you want. -his shrug showed his casualness in the matter, it was completely her choice, either way-

[seongsuji]

( `/ nods slowly, unsure of why he was telling her these things when she clearly wasn't interested -- or maybe she was a lot better at feigning interest in conversations than she thought she was ) It probably would've been nice to have a tutor. ( `/ says, remembering when she first got to the States and could only speak conversational English and all the troubles she went through, and all the extra studying she had put into learning English -- which had paid off, but she wished she had had the help of a tutor all the same ) You just look foreign. And sort of lost. ( `/ she shrugs, just telling the truth even though the lost part was more of a jab at him than anything else, she was sure he wouldn't even take it to heart ) I'm not sure why you would want to escort me of all people -- isn't there some pretty girl you'd rather escort? ( `/ raises an eyebrow, adjusting the straps of her backpack over her shoulders ) I don't care either way. ( `/ starts heading in the direction of the food court, her mind already off of the conversation and on the thought of food )
