    Summary

    In steps what must be the teacher’s assistant, Euijoo. Nicholas looks at him, looks away, and then immediately looks back, this time with intent. Euijoo’s taller than Nicholas would have expected, and moves with the grace of a puppy that has grown into his limbs overnight and still can’t quite decide on where to put all of them, bumping into the lectern as he walks towards the professor. His hair is styled into a quite frankly atrocious bowl cut, and tapioca pearl eyes peer into the class from behind rectangular, thick-rimmed glasses, giving him the air of a vaguely confused goldfish. Most of the lines of his body are hidden below the chunkiest sweater vest despite the already pleasant weather, and to top it off, he is wearing chinos.

    Nicholas doesn’t think he’s ever wanted anyone more.

    or: Perpetually tired fashion design student Nicholas does not think there is anything worse than the Statistics class he is forced to attend if he wants to graduate. In walks Byun Euijoo, the teacher’s assistant, who is nerdy, awkward, and quite possibly the man of Nicholas’ dreams.

    Summary

    Harua looks at Nicholas, then grins, his head tilting to the side. He even flutters his eyelashes a little bit, going for his most innocent look. “Wouldn’t you say it kind of looks like Euijoo-hyung?”

    “Oh, um, what?” stutters Nicholas, intelligent. He goes beet red between one second and the next.

    or: Unbeknownst to either Euijoo or Nicholas, the maknaes have made a bet.

    Summary

    ”Hyung,” Hongjoong mumbles into his comforter. He's probably getting drool all over it. Seonghwa hums in response, prompting Hongjoong to continue. "You'd make someone really happy, y'know? If you were in one of those silly rom-coms you like to watch, you would be the hot one who helps the disaster guy get his life back together."

    "You're saying that I'm the hot one?" Seonghwa clarifies. Hongjoong almost wants to say no, because right now, there's a sliver of moonlight shining across Seonghwa's face and he doesn't look hot—he looks beautiful. The pale light brings out the silvery colour Seonghwa had dyed his hair last month and it contrasts so beautifully against his tanned skin.

    "Yeah," Hongjoong says around a lump in his throat. He doesn't mean to blurt out his next words. "And I'm the disaster."

    Hongjoong has always been afraid of flying too close to the sun.

    But the stars don’t burn him in the same way.
