A rough slam on the side of your desk awakens you from your blissful slumber.
Mingyu stands high and mighty above your desk, arms folded with a shit eating grin on his face. “Look at who we have here— one of the so-called ‘top students’ having themselves a nice little nap.” He cocks his head and leans down to meet at eye level.
You scowl at him and roll your eyes, shifting your head to bury in your knotted arms. “Fuck off Mingyu.. ‘m too tired.” You mumble into your arms, eyes feeling heavier with every passing second. If you had any energy, you would be gladly slamming Mingyu back into his place. But after spending almost the entire night preparing for a midterm, you had no patience to deal with him now.
Mingyu scoffs. “What, you think you’re too above me to talk now? Just because you’re the highest in the year doesn’t mean—”
Mingyu’s protests were silenced by your sudden outburst, slamming your hands down on the desk and lifting yourself up to face him. “What do you want from me? You followed me all the way into the library just to pester me when I’m trying to sleep!” You huff in protest, raising a hand to softly pinch your nose bridge.
Jaw opening and closing, Mingyu stares at you in awe, all his words feeling stuck in his throat. Noticing his lack of response, you roll your eyes and begin packing up your scattered materials into your bag. Mingyu takes you by surprise when his hand grips your arm to pause your packing. “What are you doing—”
“I just wanted to– I wanted to let you know that I had gotten the best score in the most recent exam we took..” Mingyu's words grow silent as he nears the end of his sentence. Your eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
Unbelievable. He follows you around like a leech the whole day just to brag when you get a chance to rest.
“Mingyu,” you begin, pulling your arm away from his light grip. “You’re seriously so annoying. Did you want me to kneel and kiss your feet? If that’s all you came for, please leave.” Mingyu licks his lips in nervousness, watching as you continue to pack your supplies. He groans and grabs a hold of your shoulders, forcing your attention on him again.
“Wait! I’m sorry. What I really wanted to say is that… I’ve realized that I really look up to you and want to get to know you better in a non-academic way…” He mumbles, his gaze shifting everywhere but your face. You stand speechless, his words entering your brain at the slowest speed possible.
Mingyu removes his hands from your shoulders, pushing a chair from the desk out and taking a seat. This time, he looks up to meet your eyes, “I really like you… and I’ve only been so competitive and in your face so that I could have your attention.” He lets out a chuckle, feeling a sense of embarrassment at his attempt to show attraction.
He continues, watching as you take your seat once again, lips parted in shock at his sudden confession. “I promise I’m not as much of a jerk as I’ve been acting. I’ve been mustering the courage to tell you this for some time now but it’s been hard to approach you when every interaction we have is always competitive.” You can't help but smile a bit at his words, feeling guilty for never giving him an opportunity to confess how he felt.
You let out a breath of air that you didn’t know you were holding in. “Mingyu I… I guess we could get to know each other better. To be honest, this competition we’ve been having has been taking a toll on my sanity.” You laugh, Mingyu nodding with a smile in agreement.
“But just because this is happening doesn’t mean I’m gonna stop pestering you about grades, okay?” Mingyu lightly taps your shoulder. You let out a fake gasp. “As if I’d ever let you beat me in our class ranks, Mr. 2nd place.”
“Hey! I’m sorry I was so busy that I forgot we had a formal report due that day!” You laugh at his whines. “I heard you telling your friends after class that you were watching Love Island!” Mingyu raises an eyebrow, “Oh? So you’ve been stalking me, huh?”
You can’t help but roll your eyes, your chest fluttering at the idea of spending more time with Mingyu.

you were his classmate in one of his electives
it was one of those easy-a courses where the professor reads off the slides and you can afford to not pay attention and still do pretty well as long as you memorise everything
so most of the people pretty much either skipped class or blatantly didn’t pay attention, treating the lecture as a 2-hour podcast that they treat as background noise
seungkwan wouldn’t say he was the best student, but he thinks it’s a safe estimate that he tried harder than 80% of the people who even showed up to class
it wasn’t a very fun time though </3 with people either dozing off or doing their own thing, he hadn’t made a single friend in the class because it just felt awkward to suddenly approach someone halfway through the semester :(
sometimes vernon snuck into the auditorium to keep him company whenever he didn’t have tutorials <3 we love friends <3
but the lecturer was just so good at lulling people to sleep that he’s usually out cold half an hour in </3 once again leaving seungkwan to his own devices </3
boooooooo (affectionate)
the class had to do an individual presentation on an assigned topic, and in the lesson following the deadline your lecturer randomly picked twenty people off the name list to present theirs in front of everyone
that was the day you caught seungkwan’s eye <333
everyone else before you didn’t bother trying to look like they were interested in the topic, which was understandable, but that meant their presentations were barely engaging and he was fighting to keep his eyes open 😭
but then your name was called, and he heard murmured apologies from a few rows behind him as you made your way down to the podium
you were so cute with your glasses, the large lens complementing your bright eyes perfectly as you shyly began speaking
but perhaps the most attractive part about you was your attitude; you were cheerful and friendly, not excessively so, but enough to have the bored audience paying attention
seungkwan could tell you were nervous: your voice quivered a little at certain points and you fumbled over your words a little whenever the computer was being slow and refused to move onto the next slide despite your frantic clicking, but you recovered quickly after each time
you ended your presentation with a shy smile and an awkward little bow that made some people (including himself) giggle good-naturedly, and he watched fondly as you gave the lecturer a polite nod before practically running back to your seat from embarrassment
he snuck a glance over his shoulder at you, smiling to himself when he found you ducking your head to shield your flustered face from the people sitting near you
he took an instant liking to you that day; you just radiated such positive vibes, and he admired that 🥺
poor kwan wanted to your friend so, so badly, but he didn’t know how to approach you without coming off weird or awkward ;-;
by a stroke of luck, you sat directly in front of him in the next class, an idea popped into his head when you left the auditorium during the 10-minute break
he bought a chocolate bar that morning for when he got hungry or wanted a snack, but then he thought it might be nice to give it to you instead in case you needed a pick-me-up, and who doesn’t like free food?
so he whipped out the little pad of sticky notes he always brought with him (they’re cute—they have little bears holding tangerines on the bottom), and wrote you a short message
you came back to your seat after a quick bathroom break to find a chocolate bar on your tray table along with a small note, you looked around a bit but everyone seemed busy doing their own thing, looking completely inconspicuous; you had no friends in this class so you knew it wasn’t a prank, and no one came up telling you it was meant for someone else either
it left you confused, but you weren’t about to complain about a small act of kindness from one of your classmates
seungkwan couldn’t see, but you had the biggest smile on your face as you read the note, your finger tracing over the pretty, neat penmanship
i hope you like chocolate ^v^ good luck with your classes if you have more after this one!
you did have another class later in the day, and it was a tough one too—your mystery classmate has a good hunch, it seems
your friend seokmin noted the skip in your step as you met up with him for dinner that night, and you excitedly pulled out the chocolate and the note to show him
“looks like someone has a secret admirer,” he affectionately teased, but it couldn’t be, right? you never talked to anyone in this class aside from that one time you asked a boy for a spare sheet of paper. plus, the class has over a hundred people, you’d be practically invisible
you thought you just got lucky that one time, but the notes kept coming for every lesson that followed, and the snack or drink that came with each sticky note was also different every week
even the girl who sat next to you during one of the lectures gushed over how sweet the gesture was when she saw you reading the note, and it led you to realise just how much you liked this mystery person, how they managed to get you to look forward to a morning class on a monday
deep down, you were dying to know who they were because they seem so thoughtful and easy to talk to; you’d love to meet them to thank them for their kindness and maybe even treat them to lunch or dinner as a sign of gratitude. who knows? perhaps you’d even end up being friends
and technically, you knew it’d be easy to catch them in the act—pretend to leave your seat and spy from afar until the mystery person made their move, but you resisted the urge with all your willpower, because if they wanted to reveal themselves, they would’ve; the fact that they didn’t told you they most likely weren’t comfortable with doing so yet, and you wanted to respect that
so you decided to communicate with them another way: by leaving them a snack and a little message of your own
bonus: it was also a great chance to finally break out your hoard of adorable stickers and notepads <3
your messages to each other got longer and longer; from just a few sentences wishing the other a lovely rest of the day, to short paragraphs telling each other little tidbits about yourselves and your week
you found out that they like tangerines (which made sense given the sticky notes they use), that they’re a journalism major, and that they like playing badminton and hanging out with their friends when they have free time <3 all of which you found completely endearing
seungkwan loves your notes with all his heart ;-; he honestly wasn’t expecting you to return the gesture, simply wanting to do something nice for someone who seemed like a fun person to be around, but the fact that you did has his heart racing and heat rushing to his cheeks
all his friends playfully teased him for how giddy he acted whenever he showed them your notes, but for once he didn’t really mind the teasing because he was far, far too whipped to care
lich rally bought a little folder to keep all your sticky notes so they wouldn’t get all crumpled in his bag <3 he reads them whenever he’s frustrated with something, because knowing you see him as a friend despite you two not even knowing each other cheers him up after a long day :(
you were having so much fun exchanging messages this way that it didn’t hit you until the second to last lecture that you’d potentially never get to genuinely know this incredibly sweet person in your class
and while you knew there was the chance of them not wanting to reveal themselves and preferring to leave this in the past once the semester ended, you still wanted to give it a shot ;-;
seungkwan’s hands were shaking a little as he read your note
you totally don’t have to agree if you’re not comfortable, but i’d love to meet you :’)
suddenly, he’s hit with a wave of self-doubt </3 it’s a lot easier to seem cool over paper or text or basically anything that didn’t involve spontaneous, on-the-spot situations, he’s not sure if you’d find him as interesting or fun to talk to once you got to know him irl :(((((
you didn’t hear from him that class, which made you a little sad, but you were ready to prepare yourself for the inevitable outcome that you’d never know who this person is and that this all would simply remain a fond memory in your uni life </3
the week leading up to the last lecture, all of seungkwan’s closest friends hyped him up so much 😞 they knew how much he liked you and from the notes you wrote back it was clear that you liked him just as much
after a lot of encouragement, he wrote you the final note and dropped it off at your table during the 10-minute break
let’s meet up after lecture today >< i’ll wait for you by the water dispensers outside the auditorium
to say you were vibrating with excitement after you read his note was an understatement
finally!!!! you get to find out who your mystery friend is!!!!!!!!
you could barely focus for the rest of the class, which wasn’t a huge deal anyways as the lecturer was simply going over the answers to your quiz
you kept glancing at the clock in the hall, at your watch, at the time on your laptop, then the time on your phone, eagerly counting down the minutes to the end of class
when your lecturer dismissed everyone, you were so nervous that you felt like you were going to throw up, for a split second you wondered if this was a good idea, but you ultimately decided to take a few deep breaths to compose yourself before heading outside
most of your classmates had already dispersed, not wanting to linger on campus for any longer after their last lecture of the day, so it was easy to narrow down who your mystery friend was
as you walked over to the water dispensers, you couldn’t help but think how it was almost too good to be true: standing next to the dispensers was a cute boy with the fluffiest hair and squishiest cheeks, wearing what looks like the softest sweater ever as he anxiously rocked back and forth on his heels
maybe this is a coincidence? maybe he isn’t the person you’re looking for but a cute guy who just so happened to be waiting for someone else?
all these questions brewing in your head were squashed when he gave you a shy smile as you drew closer, a quiet “hi” passing through his pretty lips
it was awkward, but not uncomfortably so
“are you…?” “the person who wrote you the notes? yeah, that’s me.”
you noticed how he wrung his hands together nervously as he confessed, and hoped that the warm smile you gave in return would be enough to reassure him
“it was so sweet of you to do that for me, thank you. i’m y/n, but you probably already knew that.”
he chuckles, cheeks still tinged a rosy pink, “yeah… i’m seungkwan.”
“well, seungkwan, i don’t have class after this anymore, so do you want to get lunch together?”
his eyes almost bugged out of his head at your invitation, but he quickly recovered and eagerly agreed, telling you he knew about this new place just outside campus that had really good sushi
you honestly couldn’t believe your luck: he was funny, sweet, and kind, and the two of you chatted like you’ve been friends for years as you ate, even going to get coffee together after because neither of you wanted your conversation to end <33 after a few more months of being friends and getting to know each other, he asked you out properly during one of your coffee shop study dates 💗
and now after almost two years of dating, the two of you still kept those notes from all those months ago in a little box tucked away safely in a desk drawer at your apartment
and when your friends asked you two if you were going to save them to show your future children, seungkwan merely responded with two playful, haughty words
“yeah, and?”
a/n: will proofread tmr bc it’s 3am rn and i have to get up for class in a few hours HWJSHAJ anyways waifey if ur reading this i hope you liked this :’))) 💗💗 ily a lot teehee kissies smooches
if you enjoyed my writing, please take a little time to reblog and give feedback to support it <3 it tells content creators what you like and motivates them to keep creating for you <3
