Yangyang smiled as he pulled Jaemin in for a hug. "If it isn't my favourite brother-in-law!" he exclaimed. 

"You don't have more than one," Jaemin pointed out. 

"Shh~" Yangyang hugged him a little tighter. "Don't ruin the moment." 

"You two are having a moment?" Ten wondered as he stepped into the hallway. 

"Apparently," Jaemin said just as Yangyang pulled away and allowed the older one to fully step into the apartment. He closed the door behind him, as he asked, "Are you guys ready to go?" 

Ten glimpsed into the living room where Hendery threw a pillow at a sleeping Xiaojun while Lucas was crouching down, asking urgently, 

"Has anyone seen my other sock?!" 

"Left or right?" Hendery asked in return.

"Left."

"Then no."

Winwin frowned, looked up at the younger one. "Do you have a single right sock?" 

Blank face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking, Hendery replied with a simple,
"Maybe."

Ten hummed, then looked back at Jaemin. "Almost?" 

Having heard Jaemin's voice, Kun left his room right away. He greeted the younger one before walking up to the room at the end of the hallway where he knocked on the door. 

"Sweetheart, Jaemin is here." 

"Be right there!"

Upon hearing her voice, Jaemin smiled right away, feeling more relaxed at once. He looked at Ten.

"By the way, who am I taking with me?" 

"Me, Yangyang and--" Ten began but got cut off when Jie opened her door and threw a rushed, 

"Me~" into the room. 

She grinned as she made her way up to Jaemin. As soon as she could, she grabbed his hand. When his eyes met hers, she smiled even wider before leaning forward and placing a quick kiss on his cheek. 

She didn't say anything, just kept holding onto him and took a step away to be able to glimpse into the living room. 

"Are you guys done?" Jie asked. 

"My sock-"

"It's in the fridge," she said.  

After that, Lucas paused. Just for a second though before he nodded, thanked her as he got up and made his way over to the fridge without questioning it. 

But Jaemin couldn't ignore that. Jaemin wasn't Lucas and he sure as hell wasn't used to the WayV dorm's chaos. 

"Do you guys keep your socks in the fridge?" 

"We don't," Jie noted. "Yangyang hid it there as a joke. But it's not funny if no one realizes it's a joke." 

Yangyang sighed. "Ruining the mood for no reason, Jie." He shook his head, more than disappointed. "How did you even know that though?" 

"I came to ask you what you were gonna wear," she admitted. "But I got weirded out when I saw you with that sock and just decided to quietly leave." 

"Good choice," Ten praised her. 

"Why didn't you stop him?" Kun asked. 

Jie frowned. "You and Ten are the parental figures in this household. I'm not taking on the responsibility of handling them."
