Chapter 23

"Alright. You two have been staring upstairs for the past hour and a half. What's going on?" Hongjoong asks, sitting directly in front of Wooyoung and Yeosang in hopes of disturbing their focus.

"Nothings wrong." Yeosang replies bluntly, moving to the side since the older's in his way.

"Then why are y'all staring?" Hongjoong asks, putting his hands in front of the boy's faces.

"We're doing something very important and you're distracting us! "Wooyoung exclaims, taking the older's wrist and pulling in down rather harshly.

Hongjoong winces and quickly pulls his wrist back, his eyebrows furrowing as he glares at the two. Having enough, he decides to grab Wooyoung and Yeosang's wrists and yank the two boys off the couch, groans slipping out of them when they plop down on top of one another.

A faint scream slips out Yeosang when Hongjoong seats himself down on top of Wooyoung, crushing not only the latter, but him as well.

"Hongjoong, get off! I can hear my ribs cracking! You're killing me!" Yeosang exclaims, squirming frantically underneath the two boys.

"DOG PILE~!!" Hongjoong yells, his eyes shutting slightly. At the sound of the yell, the rest of the members run over to the three boys in the middle of the living room, all of them jumping on top of one another as they join the pile.

"Y'all are heavy! Get off!!" Wooyoung whines, resting his head on top of Yeosang's as groans slip out of him.

"Pay attention to us!" San exclaims, kicking his legs in the air and pushing down on the members underneath him, faint screams erupting from them.

"Y'all are crush my lungs. Don't get all up in my business and mourn when I suddenly stop breathing." Yeosang mutters, resting his head on the floor in utter defeat.

"Hey, hey, it'll be alright." Seonghwa reassures, slipping his arms around your waist and pulling your body against his.

" 'It'll be alright' my butt! Why would people do this? We literally just started dating and can't live in peace for a full day without people ruining it! They're ruining it! Ruining it I tell you!" You exclaim, whining as you lean into the older's embrace.

"Look, me and the guys will figure something out, okay? I know that all of this is something that you're not used to, however, me and the guys are here to help you. If you ever feel like you're unsafe or anything, come get one of us, mainly me. I'm always up to helping you, don't you forget that."

"I understand where you're coming from, but-"

"Princess! For the love of god, stop being so negative and stop thinking about it! Turn your phone off, put it somewhere face down, and simply don't touch it!"

You force your lips together the second you hear the pet name, your arms quickly reaching for the nearby pillow to hide your face in it. Seonghwa looks down at you, a faint sigh escaping his lips, before he removes the pillow from your face.

The frown on Seonghwa's lips turns into a mischievous smile in a matter of seconds when he sees your flustered state and he takes both your wrists, pulling your body up slightly since you're sliding down. You can't help but melt in Seonghwa's warmth, a faint smile creeping onto his lips as buries his face into your neck; the two of you sitting there in comfortable silence.

"Everything will get handled. I promise, alright? I won't let anything happen to you." Seonghwa mumbles, leaving a few 'innocent' pecks on your neck. You get goosebumps at the tingly feeling, a few giggles seeping out of you as you lean to the left slightly. The older pulls away from you, sliming widely before he continues. "I'll do anything for you, you hear? I'll always be here for you, no matter what."
