[Of course Sejoon let's his guard down long enough to really get emotional with Minhwan...to start opening his heart for a little bit...and then he gets a reaction like that. He should've seen it coming a mile away. It doesn't actually upset him or anything though, it just makes him roll his eyes in a more lighthearted exasperated way than usual.
This sure as hell is a good example of Minhwan's usual obnoxious behavior, but it doesn't feel like it has as much bite to it now. Maybe it's that Sejoon's already feeling softer from all of this, or maybe it's just that he's finally started getting used to the way the other guy is...but either way, it feels easier to just do a bit of back and forth with him. Besides, given everything that's happened today...he really should know better by now- that the "really" would've flown right over Minhwan's head, and the other guy would figure he COULD actually ask for anything.]
Oh my god...really?
[But of course he knows Minhwan's serious. If there's anything he's tried to get out of Sejoon this whole time, it's for them to fuck in school, and apparently...he's not even deterred from asking about that in an intimate moment in the infirmary together. Sejoon laughs a little at least and shakes his head after he says that- but he doesn't seem too flustered otherwise. Still pretty different from a usual response, all things considered.]
You're really trying to flunk us both out of school, aren't you? Wouldn't you miss fighting over the top spot?
[There's no way he's giving an absolute "yes" to a request like that. Even if someday he feels like giving in to something like that, he definitely doesn't right now. But he still doesn't want to deter Minhwan from thinking he can actually ask for something he wants...because now he's worried if he says no to one thing, Minhwan might not take him seriously. He'll have to work on that a bit, huh?]
[ Minhwan doesn't even seem bothered that the other isn't flustered at what he's saying. Not that he's usually easily bothered, but still - there's not even a reason for him to be bothered by it to begin with. For one, he likes how Sejoon laughs a little at it instead, if not just since it makes Minhwan feel like somehow Sejoon has really given in a little... Even if it's not really about the sex at school. It more just does give Minhwan the impression that he could ask for anything from the other - a thought that's a little weird, but definitely not in a bad way.
And secondly.. well, it's not like he meant to rile up Sejoon for once. He genuinely didn't intent to ruin the atmosphere they've got going on here - it's just that Minhwan sucks at telling the mood in any situation. He's just the kind of moron that will bring up something completely inappropriate without it seeming weird to him in the moment. Even while he's lying here propped up against Sejoon, much closer and softer than they have ever been before.
So he still smiles. It's definitely a grinny smile, considering how Minhwan works, but there's a genuine kind of joy and almost childish giddiness behind the expression. It's not that he doesn't like Sejoon getting mad at him, it was funny as hell plenty of times before, but he likes this too somehow. Sejoon just laughing as he pokes back at him a little, seeming exasperated yet amused at the same time.
It's nice. Minhwan could definitely get used to this. ]
Who says I'd have to miss it? We can just continue where we left off at another school. [ It's said with a surprising amount of genuinity.. because it really doesn't bother Minhwan that something like that might get him kicked off school. There's no way something like consequences could ever get through that deeply to Minhwan - instead the thought of it is just funny. Sejoon going through all the schools in the city, flunking out of them one by one, fighting for the top spot the whole time...
He laughs, even if it's not as over the top as his usual one due to the fact that he is still wounded, despite how he's acting. ]
Are you saying you think there's anyone else at another school who could take it instead?
[ No way, that's his and Sejoon's battle. It couldn't be as much fun with anyone else, Minhwan is convinced of that much. ]
[There's no way Sejoon's letting them get flunked out of school...no matter how easily Minhwan can think about that sort of scenario, it's different for him. Mostly just because he's the one who actually cares about school, and his grades and all that. Flunking out wouldn't exactly look great for someone who wants a career in education, would it? Even if he went back to another school and still did great.
Not that he's worried about that happening...But even if it did happen, he couldn't imagine things going any other way than they are now with Minhwan. It's weird how much of a normal everyday thing this has turned into for him- like he can't imagine going through the rest of school without battling for the top spot with the other guy. It'd just feel weird, wouldn't it...? Even though there were plenty of years without this rivalry before either of them ever met.
In a way...it's actually kind of weirdly comforting to here that, in the worst case scenario (worst case scenario to Sejoon meaning he gets kicked out of school for some reason), Minhwan would apparently still follow him on to the next school. It's one thing that Sejoon doesn't have to worry about losing...it's one thing that'll stay the same, no matter what he does. And he actually believes Minhwan would follow through on something like that- the guy's followed him in crazy enough ways so far...why would he stop there?]
What, so we'd just pick right up where we left off? Or...then again, who knows? Maybe you'll be trying to get number one back from me by then.
[For some reason, he can't stop himself from smiling while he's seeing Minhwan be all grinny like that. He knows very well that a pretty similar expression could still rile him up just as easily...but no matter whether Minhwan can or can't read the mood right now, he's not doing anything right now except making Sejoon feel good.
He laughs a little and leans over to give Minhwan's forehead another small, soft kiss...it just feels right for some reason, no matter how weird the thought of that is.]
I think if we're going to stay on the same path, we might as well stay in the same school too.
[ There's definitely a feeling of satisfaction when he doesn't hear Sejoon mentioning the possibility of letting anyone else fight with him for the top spot. Minhwan sure doesn't mind Sejoon implying that he'll have the top spot and Minhwan will have to steal it from him - mostly since the spot never really mattered to Minhwan the way it did to Sejoon, the only reason he went along with the rivalry was purely for Sejoon's reactions and all the attention he gave to him. But even though Minhwan is someone who has never felt jealousy in his life before and would never rip Sejoon away from someone else if he did find someone else - he still likes things the way they are right now, and he's glad to keep them like this.
Even with these new things between them right now today. Switching it up is only fun, so Minhwan welcomes even the soft kisses like the one Sejoon plants on his forehead, smiling like he isn't still wounded in the head from his fall earlier. ]
Do you like this school that much, Sejoonie?
[ Not that Minhwan dislikes this school. Sejoon is here, and his sister is, and his best friend is, and other fun people-- but he's less attached to things, has less trouble leaving things behind. Even if he went to another school, he could just contact all of those people outside of school. ]
