Stealers & Thieves

Fourteen

Hyunjin lifted up his wine glass, tilting it to his lips in a sophisticated manner. He took a sip and let out a content sigh as he gazed out the airplane window. That is, until he got smacked in the head. 

"Don't you see that I'm busy here?" Hyunjin gritted, glaring at Han.

"Busy shooting a self-absorbed music video?" Han raised a brow.

"I deserve it." Hyunjin scoffed.

Han rolled his eyes and went ahead to sit in his seat in front of Changbin. They were currently on a private jet arranged by the courtesy of their senior group. This was one of those times Chan felt really relieved to have them as seniors. 

"Are we there yet?" 

At Felix's words, everyone let out a collective sigh. Felix grinned at the reaction. He had been saying the phrase every 15 minutes with the aim to annoy the heck out of everyone. It seemed to be working except for Minho who fell asleep in the backroom. He went inside after routing the jet. 

"Felix." Jeongin called.

Felix turned to him with a grin which fell off once he saw Jeongin stabbing into an apple. Jeongin glared at him with an eerie smile. Felix chuckled wryly and got up to the snack counter. Chan shook his head with a light laugh. 

His eyes raked over his members. He was doing mental calculation in his mind. He already had a hard time keeping track of the seven members. Chan wonders how Sangyeon does it with eleven of them. Their members didn't seem like an easy forte either. 

Then, Chan froze. He recounted. 

"Where's Seungmin?" he asked in an alarmed tone.

"Don't worry. He's on the plane." Changbin replied lazily, from under his book. 

Chan frowned. Changbin pulled his book down a little to show his eyes. He looked at Han who smirked back at him. Changbin wriggled his brows. Apart from Chan, the rest seemed to know what the exchange meant. Even Jeongin was smirking to himself as he kept carving his apple. 

Chan blinked. Then, he realized that the only members not in this section were the enemy duo. He sighed. He really wanted to get to Paris in with the plane in one piece.

Now the reason for Chan's sigh and the other member's smirks is none other than Seungmin and Minho. 

You see, Minho had went right into the bed in the back section of the plane. Seungmin hadn't known that. He had barely woken up for the flight. Hyunjin had ever so kindly directed him to the same room Minho was in so he could get some rest. 

Seungmin nodded, rubbing his eyes and entered the room without suspicion. He plopped down the bed and fell asleep right away as soon as his head hit the pillow. He had even cuddled the soft warm cushion on the bed.

Note, there was no extra cushion except for the blanket and pillow on the bed. 

Time passed without Seungmin waking up the slightest. After what seemed like a couple of hours, Seungmin stirred in his place. He turned to the side and snuggled his face into the soft warm 'cushion'. Seungmin frowned when he felt the cushion moving. 

Sort of like a person breathing. And he sort of felt a warm breath on his forehead. Seungmin slowly fluttered his eyes open. He blinked sleepily at the white sheets in front of him. Then, his eyes slowly worked upwards. 

If Seungmin wasn't fully awake all morning, then he sure was now. Minho was in front of him, still sleeping. Seungmin eyes widened comically and he blinked. Strangely, he hadn't yelled or maybe he was just too shocked.
