@α❅jung hoseok /nods simply and watches you leave.
/stays in the garden for a while
before leaving and heading to the library first to get something.

@α❅nam joohyuk Okay then~
*waves goodbye before turning to leave*
See you soon!

@α❅jung hoseok /shrugs lightly.
Just asking.
/nods a bit then looks at you,smiling faintly.
you should go.
you might get late for class.
/nods once more.

@α❅nam joohyuk *stares and blink at your question, but doesn't reply for a few moments*
Yes... maybe, I don't know.
*laughs nervously*
Why?

@α❅jung hoseok /nods simply remaining seated on the bench
wanting to stay in the garden for a bit more.
Do you get scared easily?
/asks you randomly, my eyes looking at some of the flowers.

@α❅nam joohyuk *opens my mouth to try convince you to not skip class, but stops myself from bothering you further*
Ah... Okay, rest well at home.
I'll be seeing you around then!

@α❅jung hoseok /shrugs lightly, not really having any definite plan for the afternoon since im not feeling going to the rest of my class for the day.
I'll probably go home.
/shrugs then stuffs my hands in my pockets.

@α❅nam joohyuk *grins in satisfaction, throwing you a grateful look before checking my watch*
Well, there's still a teeny bit of time before lunch ends. Should we just go straight back to class?
*chucks the container into my bag and closes it*

@α❅jung hoseok /shrugs lightly not thinking it's a big deal to be spending lunch with you since
you gave me a drink.
/glances at your hand then looks at you with your goofy smile plastered on your face.
/nods lightly and slowly takes your hand, shaking it lightly before pulling my hand away right away.
Yeah.

@α❅nam joohyuk Y-Yeah I'm done! Sorry about that.
*nods and close my container*
Thanks for spending lunch with me! Friends?
*puts a hand out, beaming in anticipation*

@α❅jung hoseok /shrugs lightly not really minding at all.
Are you done?
/nods as I look at your food container then looks back at you.
/wonders if you still need me to accompany you or something.

@α❅nam joohyuk O-Oh! Thanks.
*proceeds to whip out my phone to check my teeth in the front camera*
*turns away from you as I try to get it off*
Sorry about that, Joohyuk.
*giggles sheepishly as my ears turn a little redder than usual*

@α❅jung hoseok /blinks then shakes my head
pointing at your tooth instead.
You got something there.
/nods and hums softly making sure you got what I meant
before I turned to look the other way and sigh a bit.

@nam joohyuk Oh, okay.
*thinks for a while, trying to come up with ideas for a fun hangout session, but then decides it's probably too much since we've already spent lunch together and just met the same day*
Hmm?
*squints a little a looks at your tooth as you're pointing at it*
What's wrong with your tooth?

@jung hoseok /blinks, seeing the red pepper on your tooth.
Uh.. nothing..
/furrows my brows lightly, staring at if for a moment then looks at you.
/simply points on my tooth, referring to you having something on your tooth.

@nam joohyuk *gives the flowers a last look before nodding in response*
Mhmm! There's just something about the spices.
*finishes up the remaining food and smiles at you, not noticing a small piece of red pepper on my tooth*
What plans do you have after lunch?

@jung hoseok /nods as I listen to your explanation,
glancing at your food again then looks back up at you.
You like curry huh?
/nods lightly and takes another sip of the drink you gave me,
somehow starting to like it.

@nam joohyuk Yeah, that's why like it a lot.
You're welcome!
*nods in satisfaction*
Nah, I'm good. My tummy's almost filled up.
Just wishing I had more curry instead of rice.
*grins sheepishly at you and shakes my head*

@jung hoseok It's good.
/nods my head lightly, putting the cap back on the bottle.
Thanks again.
/nods once more then finally turns to look at you,
noticing you sigh as you look at your food container.
Still hungry?
/raises my brow lightly, wondering what's wrong.

@nam joohyuk Ah, okay, I mean I'm not exactly a flower enthusiast but they're really nice, like you said.
*looks as you open the bottle and watches you drink*
How is it? Refreshing, isn't it?
*smiles brightly, trying to remember the taste of the ginseng chrysanthemum drink*
*looks back at my nearly empty container and sighs*

@jung hoseok /nods lightly as I listened to you
then shakes my head a bit when asked the question.
I just think they are nice and lovely.
/nods and hums simply.
/doesn't really like flowers in particular but do know how to admire them.
/looks to my side and takes the drink you gave me earlier,
feeling thirsty all of the sudden.
/reads the label first before twisting the cap open then takes a small sip from the bottle.

@nam joohyuk They did an amazing job! Especially how they coordinated the colours.
*hums brightly and nods*
I like flowers, and trees, and the warm, dewy grass of the morning...
*starts rambling without thought as I continue enjoying my lunch*
Do you like flowers, Joohyuk?

@jung hoseok [] no problem at all.

/nods and hums simply, looking at the flower bed not far from
where we are sitting.
They did well.
/nods once more, acknowledging the fact that the school paid such attention
with making the garden beautiful as it is.
you like flowers?
/asks randomly without looking at you;still looks towards the flower bed.

@nam joohyuk [ it's okay oh my god i am so sorry xD I should have paid more attention agh ]

*blinks in embarrassment, looking away as I realised my own mistake*
*sits down beside you at a comfortable distance, stuffing my mouth with the curry rice I bought instead*
So...
*quickly swallows the first mouthful of rice*
The garden is really beautiful, huh?
*glances at you briefly before turning my attention back to my lunch*

@jung hoseok /arrives at the garden and heads to the gazebo in the inner portion of the garden,
comfortably sitting on the bench and glances around simply enjoying the relaxing ambiance of the place.
/hums a bit to myself, my hands still stuffed in my pockets and simply waits for you until you came.
/looks up at you blinking softly when you seemed to have called me with a different name but simply dismisses it and glances at the drink you offered instead.
/nodding a bit as I slowly took it from you. Thanks.
/nods once more and places the bottle of drink beside me on the bench, no plans of opening it yet
and simply looks around, being more comfortable of the place here than being inside the school building and some place else.

[] moved to the garden. is it okay?

@kang insoo What? How? Why? Friends? With Kang Insoo? In what universe was it possible for them to be friends? Something short circuited in Minseok's brain and he wasn't sure he heard right. There was a lot of things Minseok didn't understand and this was one of them, but he didn't dwell on not understanding and just went with it. Kang Insoo wants to be his friend and he wouldn't deny him anything, especially not this. Smiling like a kid on Christmas day, he did something between a hop and jump right in front of him, grabbing his hands and jumping up and down excitedly. "Yes, yes, yes, I wanna be your friend. Can I call you 'hyung'? Can I? Can I? Can I?"

@kim minseok Insoo... tilted his head. He wasn't exactly sure what to think. He wasn't usually complimented like this, especially not by people he didn't even know. Pursing his lips, he contemplated on what to say. "Um, thank you..." he trailed off at first, clearing his throat before speaking again. He thought it was pretty funny with the way the kid, Minseok, opened and closed his mouth like a million times. "I'm flattered, really, but I would have preferred if you had come up to me and talked to me. Not leaving notes and stuff like that. I can tell you're an alpha and it's... just please, if you have something to say, come up to me and tell me. Okay? Would you like that? We could be friends if that's easier for you."

@kang insoo Minseok nodded, taking a deep breathe like he was told. Then he took a few more cause he still couldn't talk like he's supposed to. He didn't calm down, until Insoo let him go and stepped out of his space. When he opened his mouth to speak again his tongue felt thick and it was hard to articulate what he wanted to say, so he settled for keeping his answers short and simple. "I'm Kim Minseok and I think you're so cool and I can't help following you around everywhere cause everything you do is perfect and you're perfect and-and-and..." So simple and short didn't happen. His words were rushed and his voice high as he buzzed with excitement after his shock went away. He eventually ran out of words being reduced to a floundering fish with his mouth open and moving, but nothing coming out.

@kim minseok Insoo stepped out of the way so the notebook and pen wouldn't hit his feet. Tilting his head, he waited for the other to answer him. The stuttering kind of prevented him from doing so. Letting out a sigh, Insoo loosened his grip on the younger man's shirt, releasing and petting down the creases he made. "Kim Min what? Take a breath a just answer me," he said, his lips pressing together impatiently. He didn't want to show his emotions but he was tired of not knowing who it was that was following him and doing all of these things. Taking a step back, he gave the other alpha some space, knowing his presence was already giving him slight anxiety.

@kang insoo Minseok had a problem with multitasking, which is part of the reason he's not doing so well in his classes. He can't write and listen at the same time, so he ends up missing pieces of the lecture everything he writes something down. Or he'll be writing something in his notebook long enough for Insoo to lose him when he stops watching long enough to get his notes down, which brings him to the problem he's currently facing right now: Insoo sneaking up on him (not really) catching him red handed. Startled to be so close to his idol, Minseok dropped his notebook and pen eyes wide as he looked up at the older man. "I-I um..." Minseok was at a loss for words, since he's never seen him this close or spoke with him before. "Kim Min...Min..." And he forgot his own name. What to do?
