"I told you in my sleep?!"

"Yeah?" Chanyeol said , but it came out more like a question.

"I can't believe it!" Baekhyun brings his hands up to his head, whining.

"What? I don't really understand why you're mad?"

"I'm not mad—just.. that is so embarrassing!!!"

Chanyeol laughed which eventually caused the smaller to do the same.
The laughter died down when  the two caught eye contact. Chanyeol was staring down at Baekhyun  with basically hearts in his eyes. He couldn't help but stop to think how utterly beautiful Baekhyun was and how glad they both shared the same feelings.

"Chanyeol? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Because.." he paused thinking about what to say. "Because I'm just happy.. and I really like you Baek."

Baekhyun blushed, smiling, before closing the distance between them and burying his head into chanyeols shoulder. His face was so red that he had to hide it.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door, making the two jump.
"Anyone in there?" A voice came from the other side.

Chanyeol and Baekhyun looked at each other before the taller answered. "Um, yeah" and with that they opened the door and stepped out to see Jongdae staring at the two of them. Baekhyun gave an awkward smiled before taking Chanyeols hand and dragging him away.
"That was awkward" baekhyun mumbled.

Kyungsoo was feeling drowsy already, which was bad. Bad because he wanted to listen to Jongin longer. He really liked listening to the younger; kyungsoo wasn't much of a talker but Jongin seemed to keep the conversation going even when he didn't say much. It wasnt like Kyungsoo would only speak a lot for people he was extremely close with—he was honestly just not good at speaking for anything in that matter. Besides, he already felt very close with Jongin anyway.

He guessed Jongin had noticed that he had gotten sleepy as the younger slowly down his speech and limited the sentences. Jongin eventually came to a stop and looked down to his hands.
"Am I boring you?"

Kyungsoo felt guilty; did it look like he was actually falling asleep? Did it look like he didn't care? "Ah—no no! You're not I promise" he said waving his hands "please carry on"

"But.. you look like you're going to fall alseep any second?" Jongin said more as a question "are you really sure I'm not boring you?"

"Joginnie, I'm sure" Kyungsoo's smiled , his eyes becoming heavy but didn't move from Jongins lips. He wasn't even looking at the fact the younger was bright red with the nickname. "I'm just kinda tired. For some reason."
Jongin nodded but stayed quiet.

"Do you want to go home?"

"No, I'll be fine..." Kyungsoo's replied.

"You don't have to stay as long as everyone else you know—if you wanna go home then I'll walk you home."

"Walk me home?" Kyungsoo's chuckled faintly over the tiredness. "I'm older than you"

"I was o-only saying that because—I mean— it's dark out. It's not safe so you n-need at least someone with you to protect you." Jongin panicked slightly, not wanting to offend kyungsoo someone he went a long way to get.

"It's fine, I know. I can look after myself though. I maybe be smaller than you but I'm still tougher" kyungsoo smirked. "But I'll let you come with me, purely because I want you to keep talking to me"

"W-what? " Jongin laughed but he still sounded nervous. "You don't get to talk to me?"

"Well, yeah. But.." Kyungsoo paused as he got up from the chair he was sat on. "But I like hearing your voice. It's making me sleepy" he mumbled the last bit.

Jongin stood up with him with tinted cheeks and picked up his and Kyungsoos coat for him. He held it out so Kyungsoo could slide his arms through backwards, before putting his coat on.

"You like my voice?" Jongin repeats— half because he was surprised by this answer and half because he wanted to get more out of the boy.

"Yes of course I do, who wouldn't?" Kyungsoo turned back around and stood facing the taller while he looked down on him.

"I dunno... anybody could"

"Jongin, you have the mos—"

"Yah, you two" a voice came from beside them, cutting Kyungsoo off. They both turned to see Baekhyun and Chanyeol. "Where are you off to? The party hasn't ended yet" said Baekhyun.

Jongin answered first "I was just abou— Kyungsoo was tired. So he wanted to go home"

"And you were..." Baekhyun says trying to get him to answer but instead the boy just answered for him. "Just going to walk him there?" Chanyeol and Baekhyun giggled.

That's when Jongin noticed the two were holding hands.

"Did Chanyeol finally confess to you baek?" Jongin blurted out, attempting to get away from the question he had just been asked.

Baekhyun looked down and then instantly let go of Chanyeols hand before crossing his arms. Chanyeol pouted. "Yah! Why are you speaking so loud" Baekhyun shout-whispered.

"I'll take that as a yes " Jongin smirked and Kyungsoo laughed.

"Baek~"
Baekhyun turned to Chanyeol to see the giant show his best puppy eyes.

It almost made him weak at the knees. But Baekhyun being the little brat he was had to pretend it didn't affect him. It didnt really work. "Aish, what?"

"Is it a problem that we were... holding hands?"

Baekhyun bit his lip. "No.. it's not like that.."

"Then what?"

The smaller paused before he turned to Jongin and Kyungsoo again.
"Aren't you two going home?"
The two stared at each other blankly before nodding and walking out of the house, saying thank you to junmyeon on the way out.
"You." Baekhyun said pointing at Chanyeol. "Come with me"

And with that Baekhyun pulled the giant out of the house.

•••

"Here we are" Jongin said as they approached Kyungsoos house.

Kyungsoo hummed; he was tired. To be honest he just wanted to get in bed and sleep for a while.

"I guess I'll see you... whenever"  Jongin smiled faintly standing on the boy's door step he was facing Kyungsoo directly but the smaller wasn't looking at him.  He hoped the boy hadn't got sick of him and his voice just yet.

"Yeah" Kyungsoo replied. "I'll text you tomorrow." He said through a yawn.

"Okay." Jongin said. "Goodnight hyung. "

Just when he was a bout to leave and Kyungsoo was about to unlock his door, Jongin had a sudden urge to ask one more thing.

"Hyung"

Kyungsoo stopped moving the key so he could hear and looked over his shoulder. "Yes Jongin?"

"You know.. when um, you said you like me?"

He nodded.

"Well does that mean... " Jongin felt his temperature rise with every word, his cheeks were on fire and his pice began a little shaky. "That you... u-um.. want to be with—like with with— me.."

"I'm not sure what that means, Jongin" Kyungsoo smiled hazily.

'Goddamnit kyungsoo. And why does he say my name like that?'

"I mean, do you want to be.. um together? As a c-couple?"

Kyungsoo took a moment to turn around and walk closer to Jongin. "Are you asking me to be your boyfriend?"

"A-ah... m-maybe " Jongin gulped as Kyungsoo came closer and wrapped his arms around Jongin a neck the best they could. (I mean he's a little short but it's still cute)
Jongins face was now painted red but nonetheless he was smiling.

"Well yes. I'd like to 'be together'" Kyungsoo giggled.

'He's so cute and different when he's sleepy'

"Now would you like to come inside? It's cold so I think you should stay the night"

Before Jongin could reject the offer (not that he didn't want to stay) he was dragged inside and into the warmth.

•••

"Dae"

"What's up grandpa"

"Would you agree with me if I said Kris looks so into Tao?" Junmyeon sat on a stool with a drink in his hand, watching  both Yifan and Zitao sneak back inside from being in the garden for at least an hour or so.

Jongdae sat beside him. He was originally watching his boyfriend over in the corner talk to Luhan but when jungmyeon asked him this question, he turned his attention to where he was looking. He nodded.
"Totally. He just doesn't know it yet"

"Agreed"
