Wrong Number, Right Person || HeeJake

Jake was lounging on his bed, his legs tangled in the sheets as he aimlessly scrolled through his phone. He wasn't doing anything in particular, just trying to keep his eyes open. Jet lag had left him groggy, but his mind was too restless to let him sleep.

The screen lit up with a message notification. He immediately perked up when he saw Heeseung's name.

heeseung 💞

Jake smiled, already feeling the warmth that always accompanied Heeseung's texts.

jake

jake

heeseung 💞

estatic

Jake chuckled softly at his phone. This was becoming a habit—waiting for Heeseung's messages, smiling like an idiot when they came, and feeling butterflies over every little thing Heeseung said.

heeseung 💞

jake

heeseung 💞

i wish i could join you

jake

what kind of response am I supposed to give to that?!

heeseung 💞

you don't have to respond
just imagine it

Jake tossed his phone aside and groaned into his pillow. "He's impossible," he muttered, though the grin on his face said otherwise.

The phone buzzed again.

heeseung 💞

jake

you're insufferable

heeseung 💞

jake

Jake felt his heart stutter, but he quickly brushed it off.

heeseung 💞

jake

heeseung 💞

jake

you always know what to say

heeseung 💞

Jake groaned, flopping back onto his pillow. "He's doing this on purpose," he muttered.

jake

heeseung 💞

heeseung 💞

jake

heeseung 💞

everything
i can't pick just one thing

Jake stared at the message, his heart pounding in his chest. He wasn't sure how to respond, so he defaulted to teasing.

jake

you're so cheesy

heeseung 💞

and you are smiling bcs of it

jake

yeah
maybe i am

heeseung 💞

you should smile more jaeyun
you're even prettier when you do

Jake buried his face in his hands, his cheeks burning. Heeseung always managed to say things that left him flustered and speechless.

They kept texting until Jake's eyelids grew heavy. Finally, he sent one last message.

jake

i need to sleep
i have extra classes tomorrow

heeseung 💞

goodnight beautiful
dream of me

Jake rolled his eyes but couldn't stop smiling as he drifted off to sleep, Heeseung's words still lingering in his mind.
