They both know they love those stolen glances and silent nods of 'I'll see you by the park', they love it that they become each other's habit, Seungcheol would always remember every club meeting Jeonghan has to attend or Jeonghan would always remember every practice Seungcheol have for a week or if he's late, he'll probably be occupied with some of the professors, Jeonghan hasn't told a bit about his new 'friend' to Jisoo, he probably should have in a week or so, It's been weeks they've been seeing each other. 

The funny thing is times like this still seems odd to Jeonghan, when he didn't know Seungcheol he barely see him with his gang or basketball team around the campus since their campus is a bigass campus, he only know Wonwoo which is one of Seungcheol's teammates boyfriend, Mingyu, when they both start dating a lot of heart breaks by the news, but Jeonghan heart breaks to see them look so happy and seems so free about their choice, anyways, looking at the other table there are Seungcheol, Mingyu, Wonwoo, who's clearly not in the team but get along with them now since he's dating one of them, Vernon, Minhyuk, and Hyungwon it's not a surprise for him that Minhyuk and Hyungwon finally dating when their can clearly radiate to all of their surroundings. Jeonghan couldn't keep his eyes on whatever Jisoo showing to him or what was Chan saying besides him, he keeps on looking at Seungcheol, he looks good today, wearing a simple baggy shirt and ripped skinny jeans that wrap lovingly to his thick thighs and a glasses, since ing when he wears glasses? Jeonghan thought. That look should be illegal as he shook his head and heavily sighs not realizing there are Jun, Chan, Jisoo with him, "What?" Jisoo asks, "nothing-" Jeonghan confirms, feeling a pair of eyes bore to his side he look over to their tables and his eyes immediately locked with a pair of warm brown eyes that belongs to Seungcheol, he sends him the look of "5 pm, at the park?" and Jeonghan throw him a hidden smile by not looking at him. 

Seungcheol smile at that, noticing this Minhyuk look at his surrounding and when his eyes caught a familiar figure he nods understandingly like he just discovers something, "So you two are a thing," Minhyuk accuses all of a sudden, and all eyes on him, "Whomst?" Wonwoo asks, "ugh- stop with the hamlet vocab reference" Vernon complains about Wonwoo's recent obsession by saying whomstf all the time after reading that Hamlet book. "ahah, sorry, but who are we talking here?" Minhyuk just points lazily to Seungcheol, "Our leader, apparently been seeing with someone but he has the audacity not sharing it with us," rolling his eyes Seungcheol replies, "I did not know you were gay until I heard about you and Hyungwon dating, guess it'll be fair enough if I didn't spill any beans right?- besides, no I'm not seeing someone," He denies. Minhyuk just pouts and further seek for comfort from Hyungwon's arms, "why'd you say so though?" Vernon asks, Minhyuk about to point out Jeonghan but he got interrupted by Taeyong from engineering major, one of their closest friends come rushing to their tables, "I have a news" Taeyong smiles abruptly, "That's rare," Minhyuk says, "Spill the beans" Mingyu demands, behind Taeyong he sees Yuta, one of the top student from sport major, he plays soccer, by the way, walking towards them, "Well?" Seungcheol waits, "I'm, dating someone, " Yuta stands beside him and smile "I'm someone," He smiles brightly, "Congrats dude!!" Minhyuk practically jumps out of Hyungwon's grip and Pat Taeyong's shoulder and smiles at Yuta, "Our friend's partner is also our friends come sit down," Minhyuk invites him to sit down with them. 

As they talk and joke around its already 4.45 pm Seungcheol did not realize that Jeonghan had disappeared from the table across from him, glancing at his phone, no text, has he on the way there? Seungcheol thought, deciding to go there early, Seungcheol excuses himself and left, as he walk down he remember he Jeonghan always complains about being hungry, so he drop by to the closest convenience store and buy some milk bread and chocolate milk, he buy Onigiri for himself and a soda, about to pay for his food someone's tap on his shoulder, Jeonghan behind him had already bought the exact same things he bought for them, they just stared and laughs, but he still pays for the whole thing, they walk together, "I remember you always complaining hungry so I thought might as well buying you food, but Am I that predictable?" Seungcheol opens the conversation, the other just laughs, "I know, I am hungry so I thought rather on complaining I should've bought something for us at least," they laugh, "I am surprised you know my favorite food and the same brand," Jeonghan says in disbelief. "I was just guessing honestly," he shrugs, "I don't know maybe you stalk me?" Seungcheol half snorts half chuckles, "I still have tons of final papers that due this week, I don't think I'd waste my time on stalking you?" Jeonghan plays hurt "I am hurt," Seungcheol playfully hits his arms, "Shut up," they sit down and feel the breeze huffs their bodies, Jeonghan shivers by that noticing this Seungcheol pulls out his team jacket from his bag there's a name "Coups 95" he put it on Jeonghan's shoulder and act like it was nothing, "why 'Coups'?" he asks, "Oh it means success, as a leader I want to bring a good optimism name to the court y'know?" as he opens his onigiri, "before you ask, 95 is the year I born," Jeonghan looks at him skeptically "You really thought, I'm gonna asks that? I mean dude, I know," He says like as if he was underestimated. "Just a thought you wouldn't know" Seungcheol smiles softly,

then there's the same pain he goes through every day for a year, the pain in his chest tightens as if the air from his lungs got to pump out, trying to find his composure, Seungcheol hurriedly put everything in his bag, "Um- hey I think I gotta go first, I have one paper that due tonight, I'll see you around," Without any permission or waiting answers from Jeonghan he left. Jeonghan just trying to consume everything that just happened, did he forgot something or did he get into a trouble? realizing he was just as same as him, gazing by the streets and enjoying each others company without any word even confuses him. 

On the way home Seungcheol walk as fast as he could as the pain in his chest grew unbearable and he clench on his front shirt as if it was the only way to try keep the pain still for awhile as he reaches his house, he's grateful no one's there, or he thought there wasn't, he goes to the kitchen and find a water as he pulls out his medicine out and drink it as if his life depends on it, and ironically it kinda is, watching from behind Wonwoo just rubs his eyes, "Hyung? a-are you okay?" freezes by the voice he almost drop his glass of water, he quickly trying to keep his medicine away, "I'm fine Wonwoo" He tried to smile, "What's that?" noticing the small bottle by his hand, "It's just vitamin," Seungcheol lies, looking at his state, cold sweating, pale face and rumpled front shirt, Wonwoo crooked his eyebrows, "Hyung, you know you can tell me anything right?" He says walking to him, Seungcheol considering it, if he tells Wonwoo will he tell Mingyu too? then the whole squad will know, he closes his eyes feeling another headache and the pain is least bearable than the heavy pain in his chest earlier. "I won't tell Mingyu, he might be my boyfriend but we still have our own secrets about our friends," He said assuring him that it's okay, Seungcheol sighs, "I have a heart condition" He mumbles, "What?" couldn't catch what the older had said, "I have a heart condition," He says louder, "I- I've been having it for awhile, the medicine eases the pain for awhile I mean- look I'm still waiting for the donor and I hope they'll find it soon, and you don't have to be worried cause actually Basketball helps me speed up my adrenaline but sometimes it also further hurting me," Wonwoo just stares at him, "Hyung- then why are you still playing?" Seungcheol laughs bitterly, "It helps me not to be scared about it, Won, I might have a heart condition, but when I play I can feel my heart works, by playing I know that at least this heart still work as good as others," He says casually, "I'm sorry Hyung," He says in sympathy, "Don't be, I'm still the same Cheol you know Won, chill, just don't let the others know about this okay?" Seungcheol smiles, the younger just nods, "If- If you need anything, I'm here you know," Seungcheol smiles again, "of course, I know that," Wonwoo just smiles in return, 

Seungcheol went up to his room and lay on his back, he feels bad about leaving Jeonghan behind just like that so he opens his phone and there's at least 3 missed calls and 4 messages 

Jeonghan: Ya, Cheol, you okay? 

Jeonghan: Cheolie is you dead?? 

Jeonghan: oh Lord you actually dead? 

Jeonghan: Call me back pls, you seem off :( 

Looking at the texts it warms Seungcheol heart, he likes it when Jeonghan worries him like this, then maybe its one of the reasons why he likes to be around Jeonghan, he always seem one of the things that can keep Seungcheol's heart 'works' other than basketball, deciding to reply him after a quick nap so they can talk longer tonight, he sleeps with his earlier clothes and smile on his face.
