Work Text:
it was a tuesday afternoon, 4:57PM to get precise. the detention room in the basement was empty, except for one person that arrived at exactly 4:55PM.
choi chanhee.
chanhee sat in the front, he wore black slacks, a white button up shirt with his tie perfectly tied and today he was wearing the school tight knit sweater vest. his hands were folded over the desk, his back was straight as he stared straight ahead.
he adjusted his glasses as he glanced at the clock, 4:58PM, was he the only one in detention?
the door swung open and in walked younghoon and changmin. younghoon was a popular guy simply because he was good looking, nobody could deny that. younghoon was wearing slacks, the white button up, the tie perfectly tied but he had on the school blazer instead. changmin was younghoon's boyfriend, he was popular for the sole reason of being younghoon's boyfriend. today he wore black slacks, the white button up, no tie and the school sweater vest.
chanhee distastefully noticed that changmin was wearing converse instead of their mandatory dress shoes.
chanhee saw the surprise on their face and he couldn't blame them, chanhee never got detention. he was gonna be the valedictorian for fucks sake.
they sat down in the middle, initiating a hushed conversation.
then walked in kevin.
kevin was by no means popular, chanhee only knew him because they had a project together once. kevin was wearing the black slacks, the white button up shirt, his tie untucked over his school sweater vest. kevin was very quiet, he's the weird kid in the back of the class that draws all the time.
kevin sat at the back. no surprise there.
exactly two minutes later, eric and haknyeon walked in, loudly. eric and haknyeon were baseball players, they were semi popular. eric was wearing black slacks, a white button up shirt, no vest, no blazer and his tie was tied around his head.
chanhee stared in horror.
haknyeon was a bit more put together. he had on his black slacks, the white button up shirt, his tie was in his hands and he wore the school vest.
"dude, you look ridiculous!" haknyeon laughed, slapping eric's back.
chanhee frowned as he looked at the others, they didn't seem to mind the buffoons in the classroom.
thankfully, they took their seats and quieted down a bit.
chanhee pushed his glasses up a bit as they were slipping down his nose and glanced at the clock. it was 5:03PM.
where was the teacher?
as soon as he thought that, the teacher walked in but he wasn't alone. he was conversing with jacob.
jacob was nice and he had really good grades. he was known for being friends with everyone, even the teachers. jacob was wearing black slacks, the white button up shirt, his tie was a little loose and he was wearing the school sweater vest. chanhee happily noted than jacob had the same brand of shoes as him.
jacob wrapped up the conversation he was having with the teacher and sat down next to chanhee with a smile on his face.
chanhee wondered what he was in here for.
then walked in 3 people, chanhee knew them as the lee brothers. sangyeon, hyunjae and juyeon were the golden boys of the school. sangyeon and juyeon were star players of the football team while hyunjae was the star player of the basketball team. sangyeon wore slacks, his white button up had 2 unbuttoned buttons, he wore his tie undone around his neck and he had on the school blazer. hyunjae had... jeans?! (chanhee was beyond disgusted) he wore the white button up, his tie loosely tied and the school sweater vest. juyeon wore black slacks, the white button up shirt, his tie loosely tied and the school blazer.
their eyes swept the room before they made their way over to the back.
finally, after 5 minutes, the door swung open and sunwoo walked in. everyone stared at him as his eyes swept the classroom.
sunwoo was notorious for being bad, he would skip, get into fist fights, get into arguments and would smoke at the back of the school. it's no surprise that he's in detention. sunwoo was wearing black jeans (chanhee was disgusted once again) a white button up with the first two buttons unbuttoned, no tie and he had on a black leather jacket. chanhee also noticed that he had on combat boots.
he was a walking dress code violation.
and he kind of hated himself for liking him. why couldn't he like someone like jacob?
sunwoo took a seat behind him.

chanhee stared at the wall in shock, the teacher just told them that he had other stuff to do and to clean the classroom.
then he left.
he left chanhee with them!
jacob stood up from his desk and approached the teacher desk where he left a bucket of supplies. he picked up a rag and started wiping down stuff.
chanhee stood up with a huff and approached the bucket as well, he grabbed the glass cleaner and a soft rag and started wiping the windows.
kevin followed soon after, he grabbed the broom and started sweeping the floors.
eric and haknyeon were next, they grabbed the clorox wipes and started wiping after jacob.
the brothers were next, they grabbed the stick with a duster attached to the end and started taking down the cobwebs on the ceiling.
chanhee noticed that sunwoo, younghoon and changmin weren't doing anything. sunwoo was on his phone while younghoon and changmin were excitedly talking.
he sighed out before walking towards the bucket, he could at least get one of them to start working.
chanhee hesitated before grabbing the duster, he turned and placed it on sunwoo's desk.
everyone stared in shock, they thought chanhee was ballsy for doing that. nobody told sunwoo what to do.
"$5 that sunwoo's gonna beat him up." eric whispered to haknyeon.
"no fair, obviously you're gonna win that." haknyeon scoffed, taking out his wallet nonetheless.
sunwoo stared at the duster before looking up at chanhee. with a sigh, he grabbed it and started dusting the window blinds.
chanhee smiled before going back to wiping the windows.
they stared in every more shock.
"ha, you owe me $5!" haknyeon whisper-yelled with a smile, eric scoffed as he handed him $5.
"why don't y'all grab something and get to work!" sunwoo snapped at younghoon and changmin before turning back to work.
they immediately stood up and grabbed cloths, wiping stuff down.
"what was that about?" jacob asked chanhee, he turned to look at him with a questioning look.
"oh come on, the fact that you didn't get punched by sunwoo." jacob whispered, chanhee glanced at sunwoo, he was still grumpily dusting the blinds.
"everyone likes me, that's why." chanhee chuckled, jacob gave him a look but didn't push further.
after ten minutes, they were done.
the teacher still hadn't come in and they still had around one hour and thirty minutes left.
"hey, chanhee!" chanhee turned around to see who was talking to him. it was hyunjae.
"yes?" he asked, ignoring the way sunwoo was staring at him.
"why do you have detention?" he asked, everyone turned to look at chanhee, who pursed his lips. sunwoo smirked and looked down at his desk.
"um, i, uh, i was caught skipping." chanhee admitted, cheeks flaring when everyone oohed.
"goody goody turns bad, i like it!" hyunjae nodded, chanhee shook his head.
"no, that was the first and last time i'll skip." chanhee frowned, pushing his glasses up again.
"what are you in for anyway? wearing jeans?" chanhee asked, hyunjae looked down at his jeans.
"what? oh. yeah, plus we broke two ceiling lights in the gym." hyunjae said, the brothers nodded in agreement.
and that's how they started sharing what landed them in detention.
younghoon and changmin were caught making out in the janitor's closet (embarrassing). eric and haknyeon were in because they started a food fight (chanhee remembers a piece of bread hitting the back of his head). kevin was in for drawing instead of doing his work (not interesting, in chanhee's opinion). jacob was in for forgetting to tutor someone (understandable).
then they awkwardly stopped, glancing at sunwoo to see if he would willingly share. he was just staring down at his desk.
"hey, sunwoo." sunwoo snapped his gaze towards eric, who gave him a tight smile before continuing. "you wanna share why you're here?"
sunwoo then glanced at chanhee, who subtly shook his head. sunwoo's corner of his lip quirked up, before looking back at eric.
"i was caught skipping..." sunwoo trailed off before looking back at chanhee. "with chanhee."
chanhee registered a couple gasps but he was too busy glaring at sunwoo to care.
"what's that supposed to mean?" changmin asked, sunwoo sent him a bored look before nodding at chanhee.
"why don't you explain?" sunwoo asked, leaning back against his chair.
"i don't want to." chanhee snapped at him, everyone stared at sunwoo still expecting him to punch him.
"fine." sunwoo mumbled, crossing his arms over his chest.
"oh come on, you can't leave us hanging like that." juyeon scoffed, everyone else nodding in agreement.
sunwoo rolled his eyes before standing up, everyone stared as he walked towards chanhee before squatting down in front of him. he tilted his head up, placed his hand on chanhee's thigh before closing the distance between their lips.
chanhee ignored the gasps, murmurs and hollers that the others let out and shyly cupped sunwoo's cheek, kissing him back.
after five seconds, chanhee pulled away, cheeks flushed red as he fixed his glasses.
sunwoo took chanhee's hand and pressed a kiss to his knuckles as he stood up, taking a seat on his chair once again.
"what the fuck was that?" eric asked
"you're dating?" jacob asked.
"how cliché." changmin commented.
*
chanhee was checking his emails on his phone, by his opened locker. he noticed the conversation around him die down a little and looked around, he rolled his eyes when he realized why.
sunwoo had entered the hallway,
everyone thought that sunwoo would snap at anyone for so much as making eye contact with him but the younger didn't really care at all.
sunwoo walked over to him and chanhee could already see people pulling out their phones to record, probably thinking that sunwoo was gonna punch him or something.
sunwoo placed his hand on the lockers next to chanhee and leaned in close to whisper, "you wanna skip today?"
"no and i thought we agreed not to let anyone know about our relationship." chanhee frowned, sunwoo scoffed and looked around. people immediately looked away.
"it's not like i'm kissing you, unless you want me to." sunwoo teasingly said, cocking his head to the side.
chanhee flushed red and looked down at the floor, his glasses started slipping from the bridge of his nose and he raised a hand to push them up. except sunwoo beat him to it, he gently pushed them back up and then grabbed chanhee's chin.
they heard gasps and murmurs from the crowd around them.
"too late to hide our relationship, don't you think?" sunwoo asked, his other hand moved down to grasp chanhee's waist, pulling him closer.
"well, now it is." chanhee mumbled, snaking his arms around sunwoo's neck and pulling him in. sunwoo dropped the hand on chanhee's chin down to grip his waist as their lips met. people around them started going crazy and normally chanhee would care but the way sunwoo stole his breath every time their lips rubbed against each other, prevented him from overthinking.
it was only when chanhee felt sunwoo's tongue run against his bottom lip that he pulled away, giggling when sunwoo sighed out.
"come on, i was just getting into it." sunwoo complained, chanhee smiled and pecked him one last time.
"let's get to class."
*
they didn't get to class.
sunwoo somehow convinced chanhee to skip so that he could cram for the test he had next period.
they sat in sunwoo's usual skipping place at the back of the school. chanhee was sitting on sunwoo's leather jacket with textbooks sprawled across the grass.
"can you believe the whole school is tweeting about our relationship?" sunwoo asked, scrolling through his phone as he smoked a cigarette.
"can you believe i was dumb enough to believe that you would let me study?" chanhee asked back, this was the nth time that sunwoo had interrupted his studying.
sunwoo glanced at him with a smirk and it made chanhee feel hot all over so he quickly looked away, pushing his glasses up once again.
"babe, you can totally study, just ignore me." sunwoo teased him, blowing smoke in his direction. chanhee scrunched his nose up in distaste and swatted the smoke away but his face was red.
"it’s kind of hard to ignore the fumes your cigarette is producing.” chanhee frowned,
sunwoo held himself back from rolling his eyes and simply smashed the head of his cigarette against his boots, putting it out.
“there.” he shrugged, placing the cigarette behind his ear.
“thank you.” chanhee shyly said, not expecting him to actually put it out.
“you owe me now.” sunwoo teased with a smirk, moving closer to chanhee.
“owe you what?” chanhee scoffed, he knew it was too good to be true.
“this…” sunwoo trailed off as he cupped his cheek and leaned in to kiss him. chanhee could taste the smokiness on sunwoo’s lips but it didn’t turn him off. he simply slipped his tongue inside sunwoo’s mouth, the taste of the smokiness intensifying and causing him to almost moan.
they were to busy making out to notice footsteps approaching.
“choi and kim! detention!”
“again?!”
“fuck.”
