It was late at night, and most of EXO's members were out enjoying themselves, drinking alcohol, and clubbing.
Most of them, but not all of them.
In the nearly empty dorm, Yixing and Suho were in their rooms, both trying to rest and to sort out their own problems. Suho didn't like clubbing - he was too shy and clumsy for that - so decided to stay in, and Yixing had just finished one of his late at night rehearsal sessions, and was extremely tired.
He lay awake in his bed, effortlessly trying to get some sleep, which seemed to be nowhere to be found. Yixing didn't know why he couldn't manage to close his eyes and just drift to his favourite place - dreamland: yes, he was excited and anxious for their comeback and the programmes he was in, but that didn't affect him that much.
He stared at the ceiling above him and tried to focus on positive thoughts, immediately starting humming a slow and soothing melody to calm himself down.
The Chinese boy was just beginning to feel a little drowsy and preparing himself to greet Morpheus' embrace when he heard the main door of the dorm open and then close with a quite loud slam, followed by some giggling noises. There were stumbling steps and light laughter along the hallways, and at this point Yixing stopped trying to fall asleep. Surely the other members had come back home and chaos was bound to be the dominant element in the flat. None of his bandmates was a silent - or at least quiet - drunk.
He sighed heavily, trying to get mentally ready to spend the night dealing with a blabbering and mischievous drunk Jongdae, who happened to be his roommate. The boy heard one of the rooms door opening and expected his to do the same, but he was dumbfounded when he realised the sudden quietness of the dorm. No more giggling, nor laughing. Just some random muffled sounds he couldn't decipher. After what felt like hours, Yixing heard the door being closed and then locked. He made a wondering expression, which grew stronger when seconds later there was a light knock on the door of his room.
Still confused, Lay quickly stood up from his bed and headed to where the knock had come. His jaw dropped when, after opening the door, he found himself staring at a blushing and sleepy Suho.
«Can I...?» the latter asked giving him an embarrassed smile.
«Sure, come in» Yixing replied, moving away a little from the door so that Suho could get inside.
As soon as EXO's leader was in the room, Yixing closed the door and turned to face the other: his eyes were heavy-lidded and bangs of his now black-dyed hair were sticking out in every direction. He looked sleepy and messy.
The older stood in the middle of the room, looking at the ground while nervously torturing the hem of his shirt. Yixing didn't know what to do, nor what to say. Was he supposed to ask what was going on? Why the hell was Suho in his room, sleepy and embarrassed?
Before he could bring himself to say something, the other spoke.
«Do you mind if... If I stay here tonight?» his voice more like a whisper.
Yixing looked at him even more confused, especially when he noticed the other still wasn't looking at him. Even though, he spent not even a second thinking about whether let Suho stay or not.
«No problem,» he said «but what is it? Is something wrong, Joon?» He was worried and his nurse instinct kicked in.
Suho thanked the younger and plopped himself on Jongdae's bed.
«That's Jongdae's bed. What if he comes back? You should sleep in my bed.»
«What about you?»
«I'll sleep on the floor. I needed to calm down anyway»
«But Yixing, won't your neck and back injuries get worse?» Suho seemed really concerned.
