The couch was way too far since they've placed the blankets in front of the tv.

They were finally done arranging and I was now allowed to sit in the blankets.

"Popcorn!" Seongyoun shouted and I saw that Yixuan was holding two big containers of popcorns. Followed by Wenhan at the back, who was holding softdrinks in two hands.

When all of us were now settled in the blankets, Sungjoo played the movie.

"We are watching romance and comedy." Sungjoo looked at all of us with his eyebrows raised up and down.

"Cool." I said while my eyes were fixed in the screen.

The movie was starting. All of us was still attentive in the movie. Continued to eat popcorn and drank softdrinks.

It was in the middle of the movie where there are some parts where they've kissed, but not too long.

Everytime there's a kissing scene, Seongyoun always says, 'Stop! Stop it!' and all of us just laughed at his reaction, while Yibo, as the maknae, just closes his eyes and laugh at Seongyoun at the same time.

I was somehow darting my gaze somewhere when there is a kissing scene. Since I'm with the boys, it's kind of awkward to watch it with them.

The boys was somehow bored and they just began making fun of the movie.

Sungjoo and Yibo was imitating the scene in the movie where slowly the boy was coming closer to the girl. In their case, Yibo was the one acting the girl part since they said that he has the long hair.

I didn't notice that they already turned off the tv.

They continue to imitate the movie when suddenly all of their eyes darted to me.

"What?" I ask innocently.

"You are acting with us." Sungjoo said with a smirk.

"What? Why? I'm your audience." I chuckled but with a hint of nervousness.

The four of them cheered and they began to give way to Sungjoo who was walking towards my direction and sat down again.

"Lights, camera, action!" The four of them said.

Sungjoo repeated the lines in the movie where the guy confesses his feelings to the girl and wanted to be with her forever. But there is a hint of truthfulness in Sungjoo's script.

"... I know we have been together for quite a while now. But each and everyday, you always light my world-" Sungjoo was cut in midsentence.

"Yah! Are you confessing?" Wenhan asked to Sungjoo with a frown.

"And always bring happiness in this room. Three, I like you." Sungjoo continued without noticing Wenhan's question.

Sungjoo was holding both of my hands and was staring in my eyes contently.

I chuckled nervously and slowly took my hand away from his touch.

"That wasn't in the script, Sungjoo." I chuckled lightly and was now nervous and can't look him in the eye.

My heart was pounding fast. Obviously my cheeks were now red.

All of them gasped at his confession. Yixuan patted Sungjoo's back with a smile, while Wenhan and Seongyoun was clapping and was cheering. While Yibo, was staring intently to both of us.

I stood up and took the empty containers into the kitchen including the cups we used. Obviously, I needed someone to help me stand up since my ankle was still in pain.

To my surprise, Yibo was helping me, with a smile in his face when he helped me stand up.

Both of us was now in the kitchen and placed the containers in the sink. I washed the containers without thanking Yibo.

After washing, I noticed that Yibo hasn't even moved an inch and was still standing at the side of the kitchen counter.

"I - I thought you were in the living room." I said while my head was bowed down.

"I didn't left since I heard you were mumbling. So I stayed for a while." He said flatly.

We just stood there, my head bowed down while he was just looking at me.

After several minutes, I felt him moved and when I looked up to look at him, his lips aimed for mine within milliseconds!

I was stunned and didn't got the chance to move nor push him away from me.

He then pulled off and saw my reaction. He just chuckled and embraced me.

"I like you too. But since Sungjoo hyung has already confessed, I guess I don't have any chance of dating you someday." He whispered in my ears and let go of the embrace.

I was still stunned at everything that had happen. He was now out of the kitchen and I was left there, standing.

I composed myself before going back to the living room. I washed my face to refresh myself up.

I went back and saw they were in a circle. They were playing again truth or dare.

They asked me to join but I decline and pretended to act that I was already sleepy.

I lie down at the empty space in the blankets and was about to doze off when I heard that they were also about to sleep and was puffing the pillows.

On my right was Yibo and Seongyoun, and on my left was Wenhan, Sungjoo and Yixuan.

I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. When I felt the place was now in a sleeping zone and everyone was now asleep, I opened my eyes and stare at the ceiling.

"A lot of things had happened lately. Sungjoo confessed, Yibo kissed me, Wenhan has catched me, Yixuan has cooked a lot of foods for me, for us, Seongyoun has treated me as his bestfriend, everyone has included me in their family." I whispered to myself, reminding each and everyday that has happened.

Then I felt eyes that was watching me.

"Yah! I thought all of you were asleep?" My eyes widened when I saw all of them was staring at me.

Then I began to sat down and they followed.

Yixuan, on my far left, stood up and went to me and hugged me.

"Anytime, Three. You are now one of my children." He said while embracing me.

Next was Sungjoo.

"About the confessing part, just don't mind it. But I would be really glad if you liked me too. Welcome to the family." Sungjoo said while embracing me.

"I'll think about it." I said with a smirk.

Next was Wenhan. Then Seongyoun, and now Yibo.

"Welcome to the family, Trish." Yibo said with a smile.

I just nodded in return.

Then I heared Seongyoun shouted, "Pillow fight!"

Then all of us grab our own pillows and began fighting.

I guess no sleeping tonight. Again.
