✎ Culinary Lab

@sung ∙ hanbin [h] *jeongguk still wasn’t certain what kind of person you were. Would you play along with his clearly flirtatious maneuvers? Or act all closed off? Maybe even play hard to get like some of the people did. He smirked into your reddening face. Looks like the former with the way you were flushing just by a graze of his knee to yours. He pauses just for a second at your bantering response. Then his lips slightly smirk wider. If he neared closer to you, we’d get caught- which was easy for him cause everyone knows how he is but for you could lead you to get even bullied if it looks so eager on your side. He didn’t expect you a freshmen to play along so well either. Like you forgot what kind of school this was with its hidden pressures to conform. He was slightly shocked but smirked recovering with a smooth grin.*

*But then again, he knows what kind of reaction people have towards him so this shouldn’t be all too surprising- even for a complete stranger. Though yeah, he’s gonna have to make sure you keep it discrete.* I can do that and so much more, babe… *he whispers in a lower and more huskier breathy voice than usual. But before he let us go further, the professor called on you to answer a pop quiz question. Luckily, we were in the last row in the back as Jeongguk turned back to the front, a palm massaging down between your thighs as you had to answer the professor. All while seemingly being nonchalant with a chin resting on his palm as if bored and watching the lecture.*

@Jeongguk Hanbin flushed, knowing he was failing to hide his red face from the other only made it that much worse. Trying to ignore the whispers from other students, inhaling sharply when the other leaned in closer to him. "M-Me?" He whispered. Tapping the tabletop anxiously, trying not to smile and failing miserably. Looking at you with a smile on my lips. Deciding to play the same game. "Does that mean you'll take me like one of your classes~?" His voice inaudible to anyone else in the room except to Jeongguk.

*though you tried your best to hide your flustered expression, even despite his young age, maybe he was just too experienced that he was able to notice when you were feeling some type of way about him. Bingo. He flashed his charming toothy smirk as he rested his cheek on his palm before following your finger. The others had clearly noticed jeongguk’s presence and the other he was with, whispering about you jealous how you were talking to him. Afterall, Jeongguk was the most popular freshmen in this university for a reason, even a member of the top fraternity* what if I said you? *he smirks cocky before gaining more jealousy whispers as he leaned forward, a knee slightly to caress your own on the lab stool.*

The younger hummed as he watched the other closely. Wondering what he was doing. "Oh? I don't know my way around here well enough yet to help with th-." He paused, watching the other slide over next to him. His face heating slightly. "Oh? Did you now?" Your expression making me flustered though I do try my best to hide it. "Freshman... Sung Hanbin~. A culinary student. Clearly~." He gestured to the lab they were in. "What's your major?"

*at first jeongguk walked away when he noticed his mistake. Maybe he wasn’t thinking too clearly enough after everything that had happened to him. And yet once he noticed another, his own thin lips smirked in amusement* oh? *he snickers at how you’ve already spoken to him* I was actually looking for something else but… *he slides to sit next to you. Smooth. He winks with a grin* I think I found something wayy better *his tongue slid to the corner of his lips in a grin as his sharp brows looked intimidatingly flirtatiously towarda you* freshmen Jeongguk. You?

Hanbin hummed, leaning into the counter he was sitting at. He was amazed by how nice everything was for being inside a classroom. People muttering in the halls caught his attention and he turned to look that way. Just as a student walked through the door. Hanbin gave them a small wave but didn't say anything yet. "Are you looking for culinary? Or were you going somewhere else?" Hanbin asked after a moment of awkward silence, since he was sitting close to the door.

*meanwhile, as the class was entering, there was one student walking in the hallway of the science building. Mind you, this student didn’t seem like he was there and yet he was. Some people would look at his eyes and think ‘yup he’s high alright.’ He was none other than Jeongguk himself.*

*with a signature smirk on his lips, dirty blonde haired styled to expose his forehead and his favorite timberland boots and white shirt combination, he strolled through the door before realizing it only then* whoops wrong classroo- *but before he decided to turn back, he noticed an…interesting face. A smirk traced his lips* or maybe the right one… *a barely loud snicker flew through his thin lips*

*as the culinary professor waited for more students to file into the lab space and take a seat, the man was setting up the lab display. It was the first day of school for many so this would be more of a show and tell day with few and more syllabus reads possibly- as well as introductions given the smaller class size*

Hanbin inhaled softly, walking into the Culinary Lab. He was excited to start his classes, honestly. He's always loved baking and cooking. The kitchen has always been his happy place. He looked around at the equipment, the appliances. They looked very... Expensive. He couldn't wait to use them. "Oh boy... This place is going to be... Interesting... I can already tell..." He mused softly, finding a place to sit comfortably towards the back of the lab.
