The Boy Next Door | Seungjin

jisung requested seungmin and hyunjin to come by his house today. they weren't sure why, but neither complained as they got ready together and exited their homes, matching up their foot steps.

jisung and felix lived down the block from the two, so the walk there wasn't all that eventful as it took them approximately five minutes to arrive to their destination. seungmin skipped ahead, being the one burdened with the task of knocking.

hyunjin and seungmin both waited patiently as soon enough, the door was opened, granting them access to the indoors. felix was the one to greet them.

"hey guys!" he exclaimed. both boys smiled and said their greetings before stepping inside. their home definitely expressed the known fact that two guys lived there. there were dirty dishes everywhere and clothing scattered on the floor.

"anything you see that may be deemed as dirty, or messy is all jisung, i sincerely apologize," felix said, hyunjin laughing as seungmin tried his hardest to keep up with what he was saying.

the freckled boy gestured them to follow him into the living room. there, seungmin and hyunjin sat down on the couch together. felix excused himself as he went on a hunt to find the other. the boys sat in silence before hyunjin turned his head due to a loud sound coming from the upstairs.

"put your pants on!" he heard felix yell. seungmin caught onto the boy looking at something so he turned his head as well. soon enough, down came the two friends as jisung yelled 'no' repeatedly in his underpants, while felix chased him desperately with a pair of pants in hand.

seungmin started laughing at the view, he tapped hyunjin's shoulder. "what are they doing?"

hyunjin tried his best to hold his laughter in. "jisung doesn't want to wear pants,". that only led to seungmin laughing harder.

the two boys kept running until jisung froze, realizing that they had guests over. soon came felix, crashing into his behind.

"why didn't you tell me the guys were over?" he yelled at felix. the boy could only shrug as he wiggled his pants around. instantly, jisung yanked it out of his hands, using it to cover his legs.

"nice legs," seungmin signed cheekily. he glared at him, knowing full well he was poking fun at him.

"what did he say, hyung?" he muttered.

hyunjin smiled wide. "he complimented your legs, and he's not wrong, you could be on the cover of vogue," he teased more.

jisung threw his pants in their direction, hitting both of them in the face. he raced back upstairs, hoping that was enough cover for him to sneak away.

a few minutes later, he came back acting like nothing ever happened. "oh? you guys are here?" he pretended.

seungmin smirked at him. "you are a loser!" he signed. jisung gasped.

"hey! he just called me a loser, didn't he?" jisung turned to look at hyunjin. the boy could only shrug in response.

jisung turned to seungmin once more. "just beware," he spoke at medium speed. "i'm learning sign language and before you know it, i'll be better than both of you combined!"

seungmin picked up most of what he had said, and rolled his eyes. "whatever," he responded.

"he just said whatever! who knew he could be so mean," jisung said quickly. he playfully flicked the younger's head.

"hey, leave him alone!" hyunjin spat, as he pretended to aid seungmin's injury. all four boys laughed together.

"so why exactly are we here?" hyunjin asked.

felix looked at jisung for his response. "i wanted to see if you guys wanted to go watch a movie. the movie theater i located provided subtitles for all their movies, i think it would be fun!"

right after finding out that seungmin was deaf, jisung would always make sure he spoke at a speed where the younger could also understand, never wanting him to feel left out or helpless.

seungmin nodded his head first. "i want to go!" he gestured, and it wasn't difficult to understand he wanted to go.

"well if seungmin is in, then so am i" hyunjin agreed.

"im offended. if seungmin said no, you wouldn't have gone either??," seungmin giggled at his words. he thought jisung was very funny.

"nope," hyunjin made sure to annunciate the ending. jisung went and pulled seungmin off the couch by his hand. he started stomping to where the door was.

"you can stay, we're only taking seungmin," he joked. seungmin looked back and reached out for the older. hyunjin looked at him like he carried the whole universe.

"i'll miss you" hyunjin said to seungmin. he shook his head, and signaled him to come along. seeing as hyunjin wasn't getting up, he yanked his hand out of the other's grasp, and walked back to where hyunjin was, intertwining their fingers instead.

with the small knowledge of words he knew, jisung signed towards the younger. "you're a traitor," .

seungmin winked at him in return.
