House parties were a commodity for a typical college student who had nothing better to do than procrastinate and drink their worries away. However, there was something that Han Jisung hated about house parties. It was a stupid, rather minor thing too. He hated how single he felt when he looked around at all the other guys his age getting with girls and convincing them to have a quick dance and drink and whatever else. Thankfully this house party was different. More so in the sense that Jisung wasn't downstairs to witness the thing he hated and he was surrounded by all of his friends, sitting on the floor in a circle in some random person's bedroom.

Despite not having to see guys picking up all of the cutest girls at the college, Jisung still had to endure the couple-y grossness that four of his friends engaged in. There was the least offensive of the lot, those being Seungmin and Minho who were relatively quiet and sat next to eachother, getting embarrassed whenever they accidentally brushed hands or touched the other for longer than needed. But on the complete contrary were Changbin and Felix who may as well have just been conjoined permanently by the lips from how much they kept kissing and focusing on each other and each other alone. It was like they were in their own world and if they were, they really should work on it's security because everyone and their mother could see and hear them!

Jisung sighed and downed the last of his precious Heineken before popping the glass bottle somewhere vaguely behind him. At least the alcohol was keeping him entertained because the sickly couples stuff sure wasn't and the conversations that Chan was having with Hyunjin and Jeongin were so incredibly borning that he couldn't even bring himself to subconsciously listen in. Man, what he would do to have a girlfriend to entertain him up here with these bozos...

"Shut up!" Jeongin gasped, clasping a hand over his mouth as he stared at Chan in what appeared to be disbelief. Successfully, Jisung's interest was piqued as he glance over to see what the commotion was about and it seemed he wasn't alone as the two couples looked over as well. He couldn't blame them, it wasn't every night that the oldest of their little friend group managed to shaken up the youngest in a way that caused that kind of reaction. "Alright, you know what, fuck you hyung, we're playing it now."

"Playing what?" Felix asked, somehow managing not to slur his words despite how utterly out of it he looked.

"Thanks to Channie hyung saying I look like a toppable twink," Jeongin promptly punctuated his words with a firm glare pointed at the oldest in the room who couldn't help laughing as he took a swig of his beer. "We are gonna play gay chicken right here, right now."

"What the fuck is gay chicken?" Jisung was quick to express, scrunching his nose at the name of the game. Sure, he was friends with some gay guys who were seated not even three feet away and supported them but he sure as hell wasn't gay himself and didn't exactly want to get dragged into playing a game that seemed to be, well, gay. Nothing against the whole being gay thing, it just wasn't him.

"Seungmin when I try and kiss him." Minho interjected with a haughty smirk on his face while Changbin, Felix and Chan laughed. On the other hand, Seungmin promptly slapped his boyfriend's arm and huffed with a bright blush covering his neck. Jisung rolled his eyes at the lot of them before looking over to Jeongin for an actual answer to his question.

"Ugh, it's basically where you get two straight guys to stand close together and hold eye contact without giggling or flinching or anything." The youngest explained with an ease that was eyebrow raising at the very least from Jisung. "But it'll be more fun if the two have to tease each other! So, are we down?"

"Well, you four are the straight ones..." Changbin mumbled, pointing over towards the four singles which unfortunately included Jisung, as much as he wished he wasn't single. "You lot do it, we can watch and push ideas."

"Awesome! So, who should go up first?" Jeongin asked, a little too eagerly towards the coupled up guys. A long hun came from Minho, leading to everyone looking expectantly towards him for a start line.

"Hyunjin." Minho finally got out as he eyed the lankiest guy with an indecipherable gaze. Said guy quickly grew anxious and asked a quiet 'why', not liking the attention brought onto himself. Jisung found the shy attitude a bit weird and out of the usual but didn't question it much, he probably was just confused why he got singled out so fast and without any prompting or question whatsoever. "You haven't drank anything and you've been on edge all night, loosen up a little."

Hyunjin nodded at that and sighed as he got to his feet, Jeongin telling him to pick who he wanted to go against. So far, his eyes were flicking between Chan and Jeongin, leaving Jisung to quietly relax and crack open the last bottled Heineken beer beside him that he had nabbed from downstairs. He was glad Hyunjin was avoiding picking him, it would be really awkward for them considering they were roommates aside from the already weird factor of them both being straight. However, as he took a nice long swig of the cool alcohol, Jeongin suddenly yelling his name made him choke and cough, pulling the bottle away to compose himself.

"Come on, Sungie hyung! Get up!" Jeongin cheered with some drunken ‘wheys’ coming from the other guys and some light laughter. Jisung scowled but got to his feet, annoyed to be forced into playing but at least Hyunjin didn't seem to happy about him having to play with him. Damn Jeongin, always getting his way.

"No, Jeongin, I said you, not—"

"Shhh! It's more fun this way!" Jeongin giggled, drinking out of the bottle nearest to him with no regard for the fact that he just picked up some soju and was probably one of the lightest drinkers out of them all. He gulped it down with a pained look on his face before slamming it back to the floor with a cough. He started to clap as he leant backwards into Chan and his words grew a bit slurred. "Go! Go, go!"

Jisung sighed and stepped close to Hyunjin so their shoes were close to touching. They looked into each other's eyes and the game began.
