Another week had passed with no contact from Sunoo and in every morning that she woke up, Y/N did not only wait for a text from him or call, she waited for something to trend in Twitter.

But nothing happened. No Dispatch. No scandal. No riot in the fandom of Enhypen.

Everything was too peaceful.

Until tonight, an unknown number called her that turned out to be Jungwon and calling for her to visit while she can since in his own words, Sunoo had been terrified for what was coming, he'd spent the days stressing about it.

So here she was gripping the steering wheel of the car she burrowed from Sadie. She neared the neighborhood where Enhypen's dorm resided, slowing down once she stopped in front of their gates as the form of Jay and Heeseung waited for her there.

"Come on, he's waiting for you", Jay said once she got out of the car.

Y/N nibbled on her lip as she followed the two inside their dorm and soon enough, she found herself waiting inside their kitchen, twiddling with her thumbs as she looked around the room.

From further down into the living room, she could hear someone beating a punching bag and the occasional sound of K.O from a game playing in the TV.

In one of the room, she could hear Jungwon coaxing someone out of his bed.

When she left her own dorm, it was already late and traffic was a bitch in the intersection, so she sighed, knowing she might return beyond the time of curfew.

Y/N was running on little to no sleep. When Jungwon had called, she was about to prepare to nap after a long all nighter from a particular project just done before the deadline in that day.

But still, here she was, sitting in her boyfriend's dorm, waiting for him.

Sunoo stepped into their kitchen then, and Y/N barely held an urge to run up to him. She chose to instead up instead and wait for him to reach her.

He looked bad. There were dark circles under his eyes and his foxy eyes held nothing of it's usual lively energy.

All in all, he looked like hell.

As he came closer, she sent him a weak smile...

"Why would I be?", she said with a shrug, "But I've given it a lot of thought and I would've acted more irrationality had I not remembered I said that I'm willing to take a risk to be with you"

Sunoo's head dropped in shame, before he shook it,

She didn't say anything. Instead, she gently lifted her hands and brought it to his face as she cupped it in both sides. When she smiled at him again, he finally brought his gaze to her misty ones.

She gave him another smile, this one full of pain at the sight of his defeated face. In an instant, she was in his arms and she nestled her face into his chest, letting her be the strength for him to let all the stress fade away from the scene.

Sunoo said, the crack in his voice made her heart squeezed painfully, his arms tightened around her,

He pulled back then, holding her at arm's length as he stared into her eyes,

"Well", Y/N sniffed, not bothering to wipe the start of her tears, "I wanted to see much more of my sweet cheeks, so even if I'm a hidden girlfriend, I don't mind as long as at the end of the day, you'll come to me"

Sunoo finally smiled, and she can't help but do the same.

He pressed a kiss to her forehead,

She grinned up at him then, "Good. Because all the things I've said to my parents would be for nothing if you didn't keep me"

His brows furrowed together in confusion and a tinge of fear,

"Oh, not really. I'm just transferring schools soon to the college not far from here", Y/N answered nonchalantly, trying her best to stop herself from giving a giddy smile when she saw his eyes widened in realization, "Think you have time to look for apartments with me near this dorm?"

"I'll finish the semester first", she rolled her eyes before patting his cheeks, "Since you have to always get there for one hour, I thought why not make us closer?"

The smile Sunoo had was so bright that Y/N was tempted to kiss him right there but stopped herself since anyone from Enhypen might walk in on them anytime.

But Sunoo slung an arm around her shoulder and she slid one of her arm around his waist as they began walking to tell the good news to the boys.

He pressed a kiss to her temple this time as he asked,

"Next month"
