We Fight To Protect

Chapter 8

"Do we seriously have to do this," San asked with a raised eyebrow as he looked at the lounge room.

"Come on San, it's a family movie night. It will help bring us all closer," Yunho said with a frown.

"We're close enough though, we don't need to watch a movie," San said rolling his eyes.

"Please stop being so stubborn and just sit down somewhere San," Seonghwa said.

"Yeah, I'm gonna go sit in my room," San said, shaking his head and turning around. He started walking off when he suddenly ran into something and couldn't continue moving forwards.

"Seriously Seonghwa," he said with a frown.

"Sit down and join family time," Seonghwa said. They planned to have a weekly movie night since a few weeks ago so they could be more comfortable around each other, try to relax more but San is still being forever stubborn.

"I'm good. Can you get rid of this," San said, waving in front of him.

"No, sit down," Seonghwa replied.

"San, just listen to what he says," Hongjoong said.

"No, it's stupid," San said angrily.

"Why are you getting so mad over nothing," Mingi said with a frown.

"No, you're the ones getting mad over nothing. I don't have to watch if I don't want to," San said, spinning around.

"It's not that hard to just sit and watch a movie," Hongjoong said. San went to retort when his phone started ringing suddenly. He yanked it from his pocket and opened, answering quickly. He already knew who it was, the only other people with his phone number were sitting right in front of him.

"What is it," he asked sharply.

"Uh, is this a bad time," Wooyoung asked. San glanced at the others before sighing and trying to relax so he wouldn't be so snippy. It's been a few weeks since the sick incident and since then Wooyoung and San have gotten closer, Wooyoung messaging constantly and San replying occasionally but they've also caught up a few times.

"No. No, it's fine, what's up," he asked gently. The others all startled in surprise, glancing at each other in surprise at his change of attitude.

"Um, I really don't mean to be a bother but I need a favour and no one else is answering," Wooyoung said

"What is it," San asked.

"I uh, I went out clubbing again-."

"Are you ok? Do you need help," San asked worriedly, thinking back to how he was the night they first met.

"Yeah, yeah I'm ok. I just, I came and now I'm just really on edge and nervous. I don't really want to be here but I don't want to ruin my friends time. Is there any chance you could come and help me get home. Just, just in case," Wooyoung asked nervously. San glanced at the others who were watching him with rapt attention. He didn't really want to watch the movie anyway.

"I'll be there soon," he replied before hanging up.

"Change of plans, I can't watch anyway," San said, turning the other way and walking towards the entry way.

"San, you can't just ditch. Who the hell even was that," Mingi asked with a frown. Seonghwa stood up and placed another shield out to block San. San bumped into it and frowned angrily, spinning around angrily. Seonghwa faltered slightly at the look in San's, glowing, pale blue eyes.

"Remove it now or I will do it for you. I am not kidding," he said angrily.

"That is enough San. Come here and sit down," Hongjoong said angrily. San huffed and spun around pulsing his energy to his fingertips and placing it against the invisible shield.
