I roll down the windows, driving back to our hotel in my brand new car.

"You really risked it all back there, Ki!", Yoongi states.

I laugh a little. "Seeing him get that tattoo with my name, it was totally worth the risk! Plus, now I don't owe him anything anymore! It's finally over."

"So now we can leave, right?", Yoongi asks.

I'm slightly surprised by his question.
"Why? Weren't you the one who suggested we'd go here?"

"C'mon, Ki, we just got out of this mess, lets leave before we get into another one! Lets be smart!"

I shake my head. "No way! I just beat Lee Minhyuk, I'm at the top bro! And all those famous gamblers are coming here this week, I wouldn't miss that for the world!"

Yoongi sighs. "This is ridiculous, Kihyun, that magazine was from a year ago! They're not coming."

"Oh...", I say, feeling disappointed, but not fully convinced. "Lets go home tomorrow then."

I park the car outside the hotel and we head inside. I never really got a good look at it as the times I've been here I've either been drunk, in a hangover or in a rush.

The wallpaper is coming of at certain parts, there's several leaks where water drips from the ceiling and everything else looks like it hasn't been touched in a hundred years.

"See why I don't wanna stay here?", Yoongi whispers. I nod.

We could go somewhere better though.

Minhyuk POV

"Mr Lee, you have a new neighbor", the hotel receptionist explains as I just opened the door because of the noise.

"Really? And who might that be?"

My heart drops as I see Kihyun waving at me from behind the receptionist.

NOT HIM.

"Why the fuck is he here?!", I yell.

The receptionist looks surprised.
"Because he just payed for a hotel room here?", she explains.

"Sore loser?", Kihyun teases. "Guess the tables have turned..."

I take a deep breath, trying to get my composure back. I step closer towards him. "You knew I was staying here, didn't you?"

Kihyun shakes his head in denial. "Just a coincidence."

I laugh a little. "Wanna gamble, little boy?"

"Nope!", his friend quickly says, stepping in between us. "Nope, nope, no and no! Never! He is not gambling with you again!"

He grabs Kihyuns arm, trying to drag him inside.
But I grab his other arm. "You can't let other people make your decisions, you know."

Surprisingly he breaks free from his friend.

He looks up at me. "I wanna gamble."

Kihyun POV

"Great!", Minhyuk says with a playful smile on his lips. Still holding my arm. Why is he holding my arm?

"You can let go now, you know...", I mumble.

He pulls me a little closer instead, the closeness making my face feel burning hot. "I would, but you'd hate that, wouldn't you?"

"Shut up before I change my mind...", I sigh.

"Kihyun, seriously!", Yoongi tries. "You're being so stubborn right now!"

I think for a bit. "Yoongi, do you still have that uno game? We could play an innocent game, without betting anything."
