Water

At the evening
Adrian is playing his mobile games as per usual
And Jayden cooped up in his desk once again
Except he couldn’t focus

(I guess, there is something serious weighing on his mind…)
His eyes peered at the fluffy black hair, the strands that brushed Jayden’s nape
Adrian
Adrian
*blushing a bit turning back to his phone*
It was quarter to 8 and the jacket that Adrian had worn was by the balcony to dry
Jayden couldn’t help but gaze at it absent-mindedly

Jayden
Jayden
*turn back to his studies*

While studying, Jayden doesn't realize it but time to time he would sip on the water
Adrian who noticed this still had the power to keep a straight face during a game
As he swayed his feet playfully in glee
