it was now day three of living (or you could say hiding) in the palace. to chaewon it basically felt like a vacation, except for the fact that she was stuck in one room.
her and jisung rarely interacted, other than when he brought her food to eat. mr. lim for some reason decided to clear up jisung's schedule for the most part, so basically all the two did was sleep.
it was a friday evening and jisung was scrolling on his phone while chaewon was working on a project for university. i said jisung was on his phone, but really he was trying to figure out what the girl was doing.
"ughhh" chaewon threw her pen across the room and let her head fall on the coffee table she was sitting cross-legged in front of. taking a long sharp inhale, she continued on as if nothing happened.
"what's your major?" curiosity kills the cat, or in this case jisung's entire ego.
"pre-med. i'm starting to rethink this though." speaking to jisung so casually felt weird; 1) he was literal royalty, and 2) he didn't seem interested in what anyone had to say.
"oh."
"yeah."
three days of silence was overwhelming. even for mr. elsa of arendale.
"why'd you chose that?" jisung asked, struggling to keep his tone balanced between too interested and too cold. chaewon's face dropped, and he wondered if this was even a normal question to ask people.
a sad smile appeared on the girl's face before she answered. it was the first time someone asked her that. "because of my mom. she passed away a while ago. she was a doctor here actually. at the palace"
the urge to say 'oh' at chaewon's unexpected reply was strong, but jisung managed to avoid it.
"i'm sorry about that. i've probably met her before then, i used to go down to the medical wing often."
"oh re-"
"OI JISUNG UNLOCK THE DOOR!"
"WE'RE GONNA BREAK IT DOWN IN TEN SECONDS."
"who the fuck...?"
"oh my god, i'm so sorry," jisung said while rushing towards the door, which was shaking due to the violent banging of the laughing men behind it.
right before jisung unlocked the door, he turned around and mouthed, "they're my friends."
the second the door was unlocked, 6 tall figures tumbled into the bedroom. there was a large variety of colors on their heads, which was amusing to chaewon. but she could swear that she'd seen most of them on tv already. apart from chenle, of course.
the first one to get up from the pile of men on the floor had longish brown hair, and it took him a second after dusting himself off to realize there was a newcomer in the room.
