tutoring 。

@ΣΥΤ ³ jimin Fate? Maybe, not sure. But your bio crisis has brought you to me
*walk in after you, closing the door and taking my seat next to you*
I've guessed right, I'm a Nu
*wait for you to take a book, leaning an arm on the table*
Alright, ain't that hard. Cell cycles, not that hard if you know how to explain

@ΝΓΤ ² taeyong Yeah, I mean, it must be fate then. We were fated to meet Superman
* I tease as I walk inside *
Are you in Nu? I heard NU has some of the smartest people in this school.
* I set my backpack on the table and pull out some books *
I’m having some issues with mitosis to meiosis. It just isn’t making sense to me.

@ΣΥΤ ³ jimin Yeah, I am. Cool right?
*chuckle softly, opening the room door and stepping aside for you to walk in*
Ain't that hard if you enjoy it but yeah, you could say I'm smart. Tell me, what can I help you with? Any specific topic?

@ΝΓΤ ² taeyong Oh, you’re Taeyong.
* I smile as I walk with you towards the room *
Gosh, you must be really smart. How’d you get into bio and ?

@ΣΥΤ ³ jimin *listen to you careful and let a soft grin appear on my lips*
This is your lucky day Jimin and please do thank our teacher for calling me her best student.
*slowly stand up from the chair I was sitting on and pick up my bag*
There is an available room and I'm free so, let's start your tutoring

@ΝΓΤ ² taeyong * a blush spreads up my neck *
Umm no ... I don’t think I know your real name. But I umm need some help in bio. Nothing’s making sense and my teacher said I should find someone named Taeyong. She said it was her best student. So I guess the shirt of it is, I’m looking for Taeyong.

@ΣΥΤ ³ jimin *turn the page of my book, reading peacefully until I hear someone talking to me. Look up at you with a lifted brow*
I like that nickname but I may not get used to it easily
*place my book aside and turn my whole attention to you*
Jimin, I remember you. Is everything alright? Are you sick and need one of me cups of tea?

@ΝΓΤ ² taeyong * i walk in with a big hoodie on, then spot you at the table of tutors, I head towards you amdbtake my hoodie off *
Hey, is this the tutoring for science, I - Superman?
* i ask as recognition shows on my face *
We’ve met before but uhh -how thy I think about it, you probably don’t know my name. I’m Jimin.

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo "Hey. I'd want you to be awake to enjoy it if I was going to do something to you." There was clear mischief in Hyunwoo's smirk as he shrugged off his backpack, watching Kyungsoo escape upstairs with a soft chuckle. He quickly ducked into the kitchen to start on the soup, figuring a chicken soup would be nice and light but also satisfying to fight the cold. Cutting the vegetables was the most frustrating part of the whole thing and he just hoped that his friend hadn't passed out upstairs while everything was cooking. Not that he would blame him. Once everything was done, he carefully fit two bowls of soup and two mugs of hot chocolate on a tray to bring it all upstairs, kicking the door to let Kyungsoo know he was there since he didn't have a free hand to knock. "Oi! Room service~"

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo Kyungsoo tried to hide his laugh, “ if I go upstairs, I might fall asleep and who knows what you’ll do to my passed out body,” he teased as he gingerly took the jacket off and laid it on his arm, “ kissing. I’ll go t-up the movie. I’ll leave the food to you Hyun,” Kyungsoo smiled gratefully as he made his way upstairs to his room and quickly tried to clean it up so it was at least partially presentable. He also made sure al of his “ personal” items were hidden. Once he finished, he wrote a encouraging note and hid it in the text book Hyunwoo was going to use, then started up his computer and went to Netflix and browsed.

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo "Oh, I see. You suffered to make me suffer. That's true friendship right there." Hyunwoo joked and wrinkled his cold nose at the poke. Even though they both nagged each other at times, it always came from a good place. Kyungsoo had been with him from the very beginning and he wanted him to go through with him to the end. His friend getting pneumonia or Hyunwoo failing his classes would certainly throw a wrench into that plan. Snorting in amusement at the reason behind their peculiar meetings which, frankly, wasn't far off, Hyunwoo playfully bumped his shoulder into Kyungsoo's to set him off balance. "Ya, if that's the case, wouldn't it be /less/ suspicious if we met in my room? People would just assume we were ing."

Coming up on the frat house, Hyunwoo held the gate open for his friend and quickly followed him up the sidewalk, bounding up the stairs in a single stride to get to the door. His skin was prickling with goosebumps as the cold had begun to really sink in and he was eager to get inside to a warm blanket and some soothing soup. "Chef Boyardee? I'm at least Giada. I'm not /that/ cheap." He chuckled, letting himself into the foyer. "I was thinking chicken noodle soup? Or potato? Either way, it'll be great." Patting Kyungsoo's , he continued. "You can go wait up in the room if you want. I know you're tired."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo Kyungsoo got on his tippy toes and pokes Hyunwoo nose, “ you’re nagging me now. Should I call you ahjumma?” He teased as he smiled, “ it was a surprise. It would have been lame if I just handed it to you. Plus, I wanted to make you work for it a bit you had to study.” He said leaning into the others side, “ we don’t meet in our room cause you don’t want people to know you’re studying and not ing people all the time. “ Kyungsoo said as he poked the other. It was true Hyunwoo had built up a bit of a reputation, but then again most people at this college had as well. It was the ins and outs of the college life. Hyunwoo was a jock so of course he was popular. Kyungsoo on the other hand had a sharp tongue that could turn some people off. It was a wonder how they fit so well together. it just was so easy when it was the two of them. It didn’t feel like they were boxed into what other people thought of them. Kyungsoo looked up at Hyunwoo and felt a weird feeling in his chest that he shrugged off, “ so what kind of soup are you going to make me chef boyardee?”

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo Thankfully Hyunwoo had the forethought to wear a long sleeved shirt so he wasn't too chilly once he'd surrendered his jacket. Not that he would have hesitated either way. He wasn't going to let Kyungsoo freeze his off after he'd come all this way for him, on top of doing such detailed notes when he didn't have to. A part of him couldn't help feeling responsible for all of his friend's stresses at the moment and he really just wanted to make it up to him. "You could have just called me, you know... You didn't have to rush all the way out here. Next time just shoot me a next or something. It's no big deal." He lectured with a little frown, glancing down at the sidewalk beneath his feet as they neared the house. "Actually, I dunno why we just don't meet in one of our rooms."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo “ Well, I might be small in stature but, I def don’t have to compensate.” Kyungsoo said as he snorted out a laugh. He was taken aback when Hyunwoo took his jacket off giving it to him. A warm feeling settled in his chest that he pushed off as he smiled gratefully, “ yeah, I think I was running on such little sleep I kind of lost my mind. I didn’t want to make you wait there for me too long so- when I finished the notes I just left. It wasn’t as cold then. “ he said passively, “ thanks for the coat by the way”

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo Hyunwoo pretended to stagger as Kyungsoo playfully shoved him, an amused laugh rumbling through him. He was right that he couldn't argue that point. After four years of friendship, he knew pretty much everything about the other, including what was hidden beneath his clothing. "People aren't gonna believe you if you keep boasting about it like that. Might think you're trying to compensate." He jibed, noticing his friend shivering as he fell back into step. Without hesitation, he stripped off his jacket and moved to drape it over Kyungsoo's shoulders. He slid an arm behind his lower back, trying to tend him some of his heat without making their trip awkward. "Ya know, for a guy as smart as you, you're so damn stupid at times. Bring a coat next time, huh? You're lucky it didn't snow."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo “ yeah, if you didn’t watch it my isn’t big and we both know that isn’t true. “ Kyungsoo laughed as he shoved Hyunwoo, “ next time just invite me too. Unless you’re on a date, then you can leave me out. I don’t want to be there for that.” He said jokingly as he nodded, “ well, the soup better be the freaking best, or else” Kyungsoo said nudging the other,” are you gonna buy it for me? I’m so freaking tired you have no idea dude. I feel like I’ll fall asleep before I finish the movie. “ Kyungsoo started rubbing his shoulders feeling the chill from the cold air. He was an idiot and forgot to bring a jacket so he knew he was going to have to suffer.

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo "I didn't watch it! I just... saw the commercial. It popped up as a suggestion on my Netflix, probably because of /you/ abusing it for all your romances." The senior tried his best to come up with a believable sounding excuse as to why he knew exactly what Kyungsoo was talking about. Hyunwoo didn't exactly go out of his way to watch chick flicks (aside from the Notebook, but that was a rite of passage, wasn't it?), but he endured the occasional one when a previous girlfriend or his friend decided they wanted to. Slipping out the door, he grimaced at the frigid night air and reached up to pull his hood closer to his ears. "Pft. Can I make soup? Of course I can." He scoffed as he headed in the direction of the frat house. "Then you can have your Cheetos and hot chocolate fix during the slumber party 'cause you know I'm gonna fall asleep in there. I'm surprised you don't want to throw ice cream into the mix, though. Isn't that what people eat when they watch sappy movies?"

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo " In order to know that you had to have seen it~ I can't believe you watched it without me, my feelings are so ing hurt. Even if it's predictable, I think it is sweet in some ways. I like it. Then again, I tend to be a sap for romantic things." Kyungsoo said as he nudged Hyunwoo out the door, " If I want to eat cheetos for dinner, I will eat cheetos for dinner dammit. I am a grown man" He said teasingly as they walked out. He ran his fingers through his hair as he sighed deep thought, " Could you make a soup tonight? Any kind is fine, its so could it would be nice to warm up with something like that. I can make us hot chocolate too. After that, we can hang out in my room. You can study while I watch the Princess switch. "

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo ((sorry for the delay XD I was also buying groceries and cooking dinner like Hyunwoo is about to))

"Please. I am better company than some chick flick with a faking a British accent. Those kinds of movies are all predictable anyway." Hyunwoo muttered with a roll of his eyes and rose up from his seat so he could swing his backpack around to hook over his shoulders. It was then that he noticed the attention that they'd drawn and he quickly stooped in a bow, pushing at Kyungsoo to get him to head to the door before they incurred the true wrath of the nerds. That, or someone actually recognized him. "Of course I bought Cheetos. Who do you think I am? Think about what /actual/ food you might wanna eat, okay? If you eat a full bag of chips and ruin your appetite before dinner is done, I'mma kill you."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo " It's so ing late I didn't want to see anyone, other than my computer screen so I could watch that new movie the princess switch. It looks so cute. But instead, I have to look at you now," kyungsoo teased as he got up. When he saw the people looking back at them with nasty looks due to their volume, he politely bowed in apology as he lowered his voice, " of course I want you to actually cook. How else could you put your heart and soul into it? " He mentioned as he smiled a bit fondly watching Hyunwoo put the notes away with such care, " you get the honor of cooking for me, while I get to eat good food~" Kyungsoo visibly perked up when Hyunwoo mentioned that he stocked he fridge, " Did you also buy cheetos?" Kyungsoo said in a normal tone, causing more people to look back and one bold person to put his finger against his lips and shush them.

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo "Pft. Don't act like you didn't wanna see me. That's the real reason you came." Hyunwoo countered with a smirk, for a moment forgetting where he was until he noticed someone peeking around their carrel to stare at the two of them since they were obviously making too much noise. Ducking down, he snickered to himself as he quickly put everything back into his backpack while Kyungsoo made his demands, taking extra care to stick the notes he'd written for him between his books so they wouldn't get rumpled. "So you want me to actually cook? I'm down if that's what you want. I just stocked the fridge back at the house. Could make Japchae or something?"

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo Kyungsoo laughed as he hit Hyunwoo's shoulder, " You should also buy me dinner. I can't believe you're having me come on campus at this ungodly hour. " Kyungsoo joked as he looked at the other with a wide grin, " So, drinks are on you tonight then? I might get faced and leave you with the tab. Or even better, you could bake something for me~ and I want you to put lots of love into it. I'm sure our kitchen at the house is empty. I moved all the beers to the basement. " Kyungsoo visibly got excited as he talked about it, jumping around in his seat, " what do you say?"

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo Hyunwoo had already embraced the idea that he'd likely spend the next few hours furiously highlighting parts of his textbooks and making flashcards which he'd hopelessly try to memorize. So it came as a complete shock to him when his friend slid a stack of neatly penned papers toward him. All it took was a brief scan for familiar words to jump out at him and he looked back at Kyungsoo in disbelief, both surprised and touched that the other male had gone out of his way to do something like that. Though he acted like it was something he'd thrown together in his free time, it obviously would have taken more than that to produce something so detailed, especially when he knew his friend and tutor had his own exams to worry about. "Soo... You didn't have to do all this." He murmured softly as he gingerly picked up the stack of pages like they were something precious, struggling to find the words to convey just how much he appreciated the thoughtfulness. Many people might assume that he wasn't the brightest bulb in the box because of jock stereotypes, but Kyungsoo was the only one who knew just how much he struggled. He was also the only one who knew just how badly Hyunwoo wanted to succeed. Welcoming when his friend turned the subject back to his demands and prevented him from becoming a total sap, Shownu chuckled and nodded in agreement, removing his arm from the back of the chair to drape over Kyungsoo's shoulders instead. "Yeah, alright. You know I've got you. I'll even throw in some Chimaek just for you."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo Kyungsoo looked down at the text book and nodded, listing to what Hyunwoo said. He looked at the other, and seeing the stress lines clearly creased on his eyebrow. Once the other was done talking he smiled and reached into his bag, pulling out a neat stack of papers, " I had some free time earlier so I made you a study guide based on those chapters, I kind of knew you would probably be stressed about it. I made it as I was studying, and I wrote notes in the margins for you." Kyungsoo pushed the stack over to Hyunwoo. He would never admit that he spent the better part of his day making the sheet and going over things he already knew. He also would never admit, that he stayed up the night before so he could finish it for his friend, " hope it helps or whatever, just let me know if anything isn't clear. I know you hate studying where people can see you, so this way you can study wherever you need to." Kyungsoo, nodded, " And since you didn't have a heart attack, I think you still owe me that beer."

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ kyungsoo It was often too eerily quite for Hyunwoo's taste whenever he was in the tutoring center. Aside from the occasional tap of someone's fingers on a keyboard or the aggressive clicking of a mouse, there was nary a whisper as people pored their entire selves into concentrating on whatever they were studying. He supposed that it helped to keep him focused, but the lack of distraction made him a little bit stir crazy as well. As someone who kept rather busy, simply sitting and focusing on one task - especially one he didn't excel at - was a chore. His studies had always played third string to his social life and athletics. It wasn't that the subject matter didn't interest him. Hyunwoo desperately wanted to get into sports medicine, but he didn't absorb information or know how to study like others did. Not to mention his activities with the frat and the swim team left him spread so thin that fitting something else in was nearly impossible. It was more important than ever this year that he cracked down, though, since he needed to take the MCAT next semester if he wanted to stay on course. He was already years behind as it was.

The senior had been staring at the same passage in his textbook that he had since he arrived when he felt a sudden tap on his shoulder. Startled, his heart slammed against his sternum and he jerked upright in his seat like he'd been caught doing something he shouldn't, turning to look the person who had disturbed him. The sight of his friend pulled a sigh of relief from him and he sagged against the desk a bit, an incredulous smile on his lips. ". I can't buy you a beer if you give me a heart attack, man." He whispered with a soft chuckle and inched over to give Kyungsoo room to squeeze into the space next to him. Slinging an arm over the back of the other's chair, he pushed his dreaded Genetics and Molecular Biology book towards him. "Our final is supposed to be comprehensive. The professor told us what chapters to focus on but... I guess I don't really know where to start. You wanna get a study room or something?"

@ΣΥΤ ⁴ hyunwoo Kyungsoo tried his best to stifle the yawn that he felt coming on, it was way past time for him to be at home, cuddled up in his furry blanket, and watching a netflix show. Instead he was here at the tutoring center at at ungodly hour. He saw the cause of all of his physical and emotional turmoil walk through the centers doors. He was ready to hurl an insult, until he saw how quietly the boy was walking. He couldn't help the small smile that was growing on his face. His eyes were glued to Hyunwoo as he moved to the small study space and took his books out. Kyungsoo couldn't help but admire the man. Most guys would power up and talk down to people when they didn't understand the content they were studying, but Hyunwoo was so inquisitive. Sure he would ask a few dumb questions, but honestly who doesn't ask dumb questions now and then. Kyungsoo could clearly see that Hyunwoo had a thirst to learn more and that made him all the more eager to teach him. Kyungsoo walked over and tapped his shoulder, grinning at him, " You so owe me a beer dude," He said playfully as he took his seat by the other, " Let me see what you're working on,"

It was close to closing time when Hyunwoo made his way into the tutoring center. They had already dimmed some of the lights and the few students who still lurked were bent in concentration over their assignments. Even so, the jock felt the hairs on his nape prickle with anxiety and he couldn't help glance self consciously over his shoulder to make sure that he hadn't drawn any attention. It wasn't necessarily a secret that Shownu wasn't the brightest bulb in the box when it came to school. With as hard as premed was, it was no surprise that /anyone/ might need help with their studies, but the fact that he needed tutoring was still a point of shame for him. Footsteps uncharacteristically quiet for the bigger guy, he made his way across the room to one of the study carrels in the back, quickly ducking inside and dropping his messenger bag.
