"What do we even have??" I ask, as I watch Squirrely open and close every drawer until now. He turns around and looks at me, with obvious struggle written all over his face.
"I don't think we have many stuff. I haven't bought food in a while." Says Minho while walking in, and sitting down next to me. I take his phone out of his pocket, and open up goggle.
"It says it's good to eat bananas, applesauce, rice.. toast??" I didn't know it's good to eat toast if you have an upset stomach. That's definitely a first one for me.
"Idiot. Why don't we just order some pork-based soup, it's the easiest way to get out of this situation. It's not like Hannie actually wanted to cook for us, he just wanted to get you off of me." He says making me and Squirrely look at each other and then away right after.
"Ye- Yeh sure. Order one for Seungmin as well." I hand him the phone, and lay my chin on the table because of how exhausted I am. I hear Minho make our order, and in the next moment he just joins me down. We both look like half dead body's right now, with Squirrely just staring down at us.
A moment later he places two glasses of water in front of us. "Drink some water. I read it's most normal to drink water after drinking to much." He says with a small smile. I just take the cup and gulp it down with Minho following behind.
"When did you read that." I ask curiously, since I know he is interested in way more interesting stuff. He had no reason to google it before last night.
"While you and Minho were getting wasted I used your phone, knowing this moment would come." I feel... fluttered. Even thought we were such a pain in the ass all night, he was thinking of a way to help us from the very beginning. I want to jump up on him and hug him for his caring actions, but of course I'm not going to do that. Instead I just smile softly, and mouth a thank you, while looking at the empty glass.
I never realized this before but, Squirrely loves to talk. Since both me and Minho are kinda dry on energy, he keeps cracking up jokes and laughing in order to lift the mood up. Eventually me and Minho forget about the knot in our stomachs and join him. It's so easy to talk to him since he can talk about literally anything, well maybe I would skip the period talk with him. It's to embarrassing to explain things like that to someone who has no idea what they are. I mean not necessarily embarrassing, it's a natural thing after all, but I simply think it would make me feel uncomfortable.
Suddenly a noise is heard from the door, making all of us turn our heads toward it only to see a sleepy Seungmin refiling his hair, and just like that the pack is complete.
"Why are you all awake?? Oh my God, my head." He says as he drags his feet through the floor and sits next to us.
"Welcome to the dead side." I say, as my head moves for a centimetre in order to get a better look at him. "Your man missed you." A small smirk spreads on my face as my eyes go toward Minho. If he thought I was done teasing him so fast, he is really dumb.
He shoots me a dead glare, and mouths a 'shut the fuck up'. As far as I remember, Seungmin never remembered anything after he got drunk in high school, so if he is still the same, then he doesn't remember anything.
"My man??" He looks at me all confused, noticing the way I'm looking at Minho. "What happened last night. HE DIDN'T KISS ME OR ANYTHING RIGHT?!" I don't know where the strength for shouting or standing up came from, but he sure deserves a praise for it.
"Eww, who even wants your dry lips." Minho makes a disgusted face. In that moment, me and Squirrely make eye contact, and he just evilly smirks at me.
"~Seungmin I love you!!" He copies me from before. I didn't know he heard me. Well I did kinda shout that out loud and he was there last night, so connecting the dots probably wasn't so hard.
"~I love you too man!!" I say back, both of us bursting out laughing, as the two just look at us with grumpy faces. Minho smacks my back, and tries to hit Squirrely from across the table but he moves back quickly.
"I don't know what happened, but let's pretend it never did." Seungmin says as he sits up more conformable. After a few seconds mine and Squirrely's laughter gets cut off by the door bell, and I happily hit Minho back.
"Food's here. Get your wallet." I say knowing he would pay for it even if I didn't say that. It's just his nature, somehow he's the only person I know who doesn't mind spending money, when it comes to paying for friends. I guess I should use him well hehe... I'm kidding. I wouldn't do that to him, not to mention, I don't like owning anyone anything.
He slowly lifts his ass up, and exits the kitchen heading for the door. He is the only one who we can count on when it comes to going out public, since almost all of our faces have been on the news by now. I guess we shouldn't really go all easy just because they hope he is going to die and everything will end quietly.
I hear Minho take the bag with food and pay the delivery man, but a question the man asks catches my attention.
"Is that your car sir??" Why would he ask that for God's sake. Came to think of it, would it be better if Seungmin didn't park his car right in front of the house. Or at least moved it the day he found out he's better of with us then out there. Well I don't know, anyway where's that food.
"Yes. Why are you asking??" Minho asks him back.
"Nothing, just curious." Minho greets him a goodbye, and then closes the door walking back into the kitchen and placing the food in the middle of the table.
"Dig in pigs." He says, and walks to the counter to get all of us a spoon, before he himself sits back down and grabs his share. We all start eating and then hear a mumble from the one who hasn't tried this yet.
"This is sooo good." He says with his mouth half full. He gulps it down and smiles to himself, as he grabs another bite. He is so cute.
I've gone to soft ever since he is around me. Everything he does is cute to me, and I don't like to be all melted down.. you know what I mean??
Well, anyway, after we eat up we hit the bed again, and this time we hit the actual bed. Upstairs. The comfortable one. I haven't slept in an actual bed in a while, so it somehow feels weird and... he's not here. I can't keep my eyes on him this way. I might be a bit perverted with what I'm about to say but.. this way I can't stare at his beautiful face, I can only stare at this dark ceiling.
After a few long minutes of tossing and turning in this tiny bed, I hear noises outside on the hallway. Someone's footsteps make me raise my body in a sitting position right away, with my eyes widely opened. I take the blanket off of me, and place my bare feet on the cold ground. I slowly get up and walk toward the door as quietly as possible. You know how most people just hide when they hear something and get that bad feeling. But let's be hones those people exist only in real life, cos in movies they are all dumb, just like me. Well, I always run straight toward it, because if there is a serial killer outside this room, I'm not the one dying tonight.
Just when my hand reaches for the door handle, someone knocks on it making me jump up in surprise. A moment later the door open, and a head peeks in not to far away from my face. Me and Squirrely lock eyes with 5 centimetres in between our faces, and the slight fear I was feeling washes away the moment I see his surprised face.
"Hi." I whisper bringing him back to the real world. His gaze lowers down to my nose and slowly to my lips before he makes a few steps backwards and turns away from me.
Did he just... omg, he just.... just now he was... he does have a dirty mind. But the way he backed off right away proves how pure he actually is.
"I- I can't sleep. It's just that... I'm used to have you around every time I close my eyes so.. I'm scared to sleep alone in my room." He says in a low tone in order not to wake the other two up.
I just chuckle before stretching my arm and pulling him inside the room. "Do you need an extra pillow??" I ask, knowing he always squeezes something before falling asleep.
"Can't I just.. you know." He hugs the air in front of himself, making an awkward face. I title my head in confusion and look at him.
"The bed is too small, so there is no space for an extra pillow." He continues explaining as his finger points toward the bed.
"Get to the point." I say with my patience slowly running out.
"Can't I just hug you??" He finally spits it out as his eyes shut. After a second, he opens one and gives me an awkward smile. I bite my lower lip as the memory from last night and this morning comes to my mind. I did kinda give him the hope to get really, and when I say really, I mean really comfortable with us being touchy.
"Well... umm. I this you can.." I say a bit insecure, and in the next moment he just jumps on the bed and fixes the blanket above his feet. When he is all set up, he just looks at me with small sparks in his eyes and a big smile. I cough a few times in hopes my embarrassment fades away that way, before I slowly lye down next to him with my back facing him. A few seconds after, I feel his hands slowly wrap around me, with still some hesitation in his movement. He squeezes our body's closer, and I can feel myself tense a bit under his touch.
"Relax." He whispers inside my ear which is definitely not helping. Hello, sir, how do you expect me to relax when you just did that.
I shake my head trying not to get to paralyzed by the situation and only a few seconds after, when I feel the warmth around myself, I slowly start to feel how exhausted I actually am, which causes me to relax my body and drift to sleep in no time.
--
The weak morning sun shines on my eyes, making me flinch on the sudden warmth. I slowly open my eyes eyeing my surroundings only to realize, I'm still in the same room as before, with his arms around me and us lying together on this tiny bed, which takes us pretty well in the position we are in right now.
I try to move and as I try, I feel the tip of his nose brush against the skin on the back of my neck. This makes me freeze on the spot immediately, and in the next moment he just tightens his grip around me, and completely lies his nose against my skin. This position kinda makes me weirdly happy. I can feel this weird feeling in my stomach that is just so satisfying... OH MY GOD.
I don't dare to move for the next few minutes in fear he wakes up, but that is cut off fast. A few minutes after I wake up, I hear noises from outside the room and seconds later someone knocks on the door before slowly opening it. Seungmin peaks his head inside and the moment he notices me and Squirrely on the bed, his eyes go wide and he immediately closes the door again. Wh-... Do... do we look that.. inappropriate?? Three seconds later he enters again, and just looks straight at me without a specific expression on his face.
"I just couldn't find anyone. Minho hyung is not in his room, and you are the only one left with a phone." He explains the situation to me, and just continues to stand behind the door. We keep looking at each other before my brain get's out of it's hiatus, and starts working aging. My eyes quickly search for my phone, and I signal him to take it, since I'm not really in a position that gives me many options.
"Thank you." He says and exits the room. I should care about Minho being gone right?? Well, he's a grown up ass. he's gonna be fine wherever he went. Now... let me enjoy the moment.

There are way to many "and's" in this chapter.. I don't like it. But I don't have time to redo it. The struggle of me.
