Everything was kind of good but guilty is a bitch and Yeonjun felt that a lot so he used uni stuff to not think.He busied himself so much with academy stuff that he was barely taking care of himself. Yeonjun tried to be there with San who wanted more quality time with him but Yeonjun just couldn’t. And there was Kai too. See, Kai LOVES gossip and was always a good friend so Kai got too worried so he was always there for Yeonjun. Kai always send messages to him, did face calls and even sometimes urged Soobin or San to give food to Yeonjun at nonsense hours.

So how would Yeonjun forget his love for Kai if he was so infuriatingly cute and so so good to him? Yeonjun cried a lot and wrote a song about it that night cof cof lonely boy cof cof.

Eventually San broke up with him, but hey: Yeonjun managed to save San’s friendship the moment Yeonjun played cupid to make San and Wooyoung date. And Yeonjun just accepted his fate: he would always love Kai so he just needed to act on that or wait Kai fall for someone and then try to forget him for real.

Yeonjun picked option 2 and for the rest of his second year at uni, he laid around with almost everyone, especially bc now a bold Choi Beomgyu was competing with Yeonjun for the title “who is the IT boy from the campus”. Beomgyu was actually a good friend so it was kind of a silly competition, the two of them even made out once and were good.

In his third year, Kai and Taehyun entered the same uni. Not only that, but since every year the roommate selection changes, Yeonjun were paired up with Kai himself. It was like the universe being kind to Yeonjun? Actually no bc if Kai were cute in his teens, now he is hot and comfortable with Yeonjun, which means: cuddles, coffee dates and walking shirtless in the dorm. And the worst part was that Kai was OBLIVIOUS at how red Yeonjun got or how his heart was about to explode when Kai settled in his lap for a movie night. And Kai even liked to sleep next to Yeonjun when they couldn’t talk because of their busy schedules and because Kai’s bed was full of molangies.

Soobin said it was time for Yeonjun woo Kai and end his own suffering, Yoowong and San also agreed but Yeonjun was insecure. Like what if when he starts to date Kai and Yeonjun realized that he was in love with the illusion he created of Kai and not actual Kai? What if Yeonjun were in love for the idea of Kai and it’s impossibility? He would break Kai’s heart and their friendship and that he couldn’t stand. Yeonjun didn’t want to fuck it up. So for the first semester with Kai being his roommate and all the friendship cuddling and movie nights on Saturday night, he didn’t act.

Kai wasn’t the kind to attend a party, he hated many people but eventually Soobin, Taehyun, Beomgyu and Yeonjun finally made him attend one. See, since his short relationship with Taehyun (one that DIDN’T involve sex because Taehyun couldn’t stand the idea while Kai wanted it), Kai never told about crushes or anything about his own love life. It was not bc he didn’t trust Yeonjun, bc Kai preferred to stay close to his friends than finding himself a date. Even being the hottest guy on campus, Kai still was shy and pretty much “people out”.

But boy don’t ask how this started, but Kai and Beomgyu started a drink contest and someone rilled them up to a make out session in front of everyone. Yeonjun never saw Kai kissing but he always though Kai would be a shy kisser, someone with soft lips and hands above the waist.

Kai was definitely not like that and Yeonjun was furious and jealous and couldn't say anything just watch Kai’s hand grips Beomgyu’s ass while kissing him madly. That night Yeonjun did what he always does when he is Kai frustrated: he drank and drank a lot. He was doing a strip dance over the table, reaching to take off his pants when he fell right into Kai’s arms, who were trying to protect drunk!yeonjun from complete embarrassment (and bc some idiots were recording it).
Yeonjun doesn’t remember but when he opened his eyes and were in Kai’s arms he sulked and pouted but Kai was sober than him and again: What Kai wouldn’t ask and Yeonjun wouldn’t do?
