Hiiii, i hope you have a good time.

This might be a bit sudden because I'm not familiar with this app, even though I've had this app for years.

I want to ask you where I can read the rest of the chapters of Cloudy With a Chance: Phase II Summaries, because there are only two chapters accessible.

I just checked and I have no idea why the links don't work. I tried to look for them but I can't find them either. I actually suspect that I might have deleted them for some reason or tumblr messed them up (like they have my other links). It's a big pity because I never saved them anywhere else.

If anyone out there saved all the other bits I wrote, it'd be super cool to read them again. =)

I did find a draft for Phase II: Part 8 though. It's under the cut.

***

The new apartment is not what they were expecting. It’s nice but feels a little sterile when they move in, as though it’s never had any kind of personality at all. There were bigger windows, so much more storage, walk in wardrobes and a bathroom that doesn’t look like it’s 50 years old. 

Jiwon misses the cozy and intermittent mess of their old apartment. He says intermittent because when you live with Hanbin, nothing really stays messy for that long. He misses the lived-in colours of it and even how some thing don’t work right unless you knew the secret way to deal with it. He misses their bedroom and kitchen most of all because almost every good memory he’s had lately came from one of those two places. 

Hanbin loves the new apartment though.

“It’s so clean!”

“Yeah-”

“Have you seen the wardrobe space?! It’s insane!”

“That’s cool I guess?”

“We can fit so much stuff in here!”

“The kitchen has a walk in pantry! It has actual shelving Jiwon! Do you know how long I’ve wanted proper shelving?!”

Okay, so Hanbin really really loves the new apartment. Despite all his neuroses and lack of trust, he takes to the new environment like a duck to water. They have space for a study and make-shift home recording booth. Hanbin does most of his writing there when Jiwon’s at work. 

He also gets to know everyone on the security team and which shift they do. They don’t have much to do with the neighbours because everyone here wants their privacy but once or twice a week, there’s a TV star or idol sharing the lift upstairs with them. 

They all signed NDAs. Thank God. 

Nobody questions their living arrangements. Hanbin has no idea what Jin said to management but seeing as he’s not a girl, they don’t seem to care. Especially not when a huge amount of Jiwon’s fans have already assumed that Hanbin’s just another idol or trainee with BeatBox or GlobalKore. Nobody corrects the rumours. Jiwon is too busy with promotion and schedules and events for management to pencil in any kind of meeting about his love life, real or imagined. 

Hanbin is the one who really moves them in and does the lion’s share of unpacking and turning the apartment from Accommodation to Home. 

It takes about weeks for Jiwon to warm up to the new place. He’s so busy with the promo schedule that he doesn’t really notice much when he gets home, hits the shower, eats for 10 minutes then sleeps. He gets up when the alarm blares Snoop Dog and Hanbin kisses his shoulder. Then it’s a mad dash to get ready before he’s bundled into a van and Jin starts rattling off his schedule for the day. 

But their apartment does change. 

One picture goes up on the white walls (Almond Blossom vines, which triggers something like a distant memory). Then it’s the waterlily print that Hanbin kept from their old place. Then more and more art prints and photos dot here and there. 

The cold tiled floor in the main living room is covered by a peach coloured shaggy rug that Jiwon loves digging his toes into. The bathroom finally has their favourite towels hanging on the rails. The space by the front door has a row of their slippers and shoes, bookended by Nikes and a very well worn Winnie the Pooh. 

In the back of Jiwon’s head, he knows things are changing, he knows Hanbin is moving them in. But it doesn’t really hit him until he’s in the kitchen, looking for cereal at 2am and stumbling into the walk-in pantry and being stunned at the fact they have four different kinds just lined up neatly next to each other. 

“Oh my God, what are you doing. I can hear you chewing from the bedroom.” Hanbin grumbles. 

“Don’t lie. I’m very quiet.” 

Hanbin peers into Jiwon’s bowl and grimaces. “Are you eating all four of our cereals at the same time?”

“Yup.”

And just like that Hanbin shakes his head, turns on his heels and shuffles back to sleep without another word.

No, not at all. Haha it's set in a British highschool. Just minor details reminded me of our cwac couple. Like how different they are and well, one of them is "a little broken"... and how supportive they are of each other. maybe it's because I recently just re-read CWAC, that's why I thought of this. Haha

Aw that sounds nice. Supportive Couples are the best though. I actually re-read CWAC recently too because someone asked me about this detail in it. It's nice to go back in time!

I was watching Heartstopper over the weekend and I kept catching myself thinking about CWAC Jiwon & Hanbin in that universe... like a fic-ception of some sort. LOL

Oh really?! I've heard of Heartstopper but not actually watched it. Is it a similar story?

Idk the meaning of 141 either. But it's so close to 131. I'll take it as a crumb.

Fascinating. There's all sorts of meanings (as per Google) but it's the first I've heard of it. Kids these days with their cryptic messages lol.

[mvssmallow]

I was scrolling through CWAC and stumbled upon 1 guy 4 kids. Bobby doing the 141 sign. Hanbin's company is 131.

Don't mind me. I just miss my Double B. Lol

Really? I knew about 131 but what does 141 mean?
