Seventeen Imagines

DK: best friend (pt. 2)

*warning: this imagine is long (5k+ words)*

About an hour after arriving at the beach house Minyoung and Soonyoung were the first ones to run to the beach to enjoy the surprisingly warm weather. While Wonwoo and Jisoo set up the beach chairs and umbrella you brought out a cooler filled with iced drinks and fruit. Seokmin, Chan and Jisoo joined the other two in the water while you sat under the beach umbrella with Wonwoo. He broke out a book and began reading quietly while you watched everyone play in the ocean.

"How come you're not swimming?" Wonwoo asked about 15 minutes later, his eyes focused on the pages in front of him.

"I'm just not feeling it today." You answered before biting into a piece of watermelon.

And that didn't last long. Minyoung and Soonyoung ran up to you and Wonwoo. Soonyoung grabbed Wonwoo's arm and forcefully dragged him off to the water while Minyoung did the same to you, pulling you out of the chair by your wrists. Soonyoung attempted to push Wonwoo in but the tables turned when Wonwoo grabbed the other man and tossed him in the water like he was a piece of driftwood.

Minyoung yanked you to the water and purposely sat down, pulling you down with her. The clothes you were wearing were completely soaked now. It was a good thing you had your bathing suit on under, though you weren't as brave as Minyoung to just wear your bathing suit like she was. It didn't take long for your mood to change though, a smile on your face as you splashed Minyoung and Chan.

After a while Seokmin ended up leaving to dry off in the sun, sitting on a beach towel as he observed everyone else play water games. Minyoung's favorite game was water jousting. For the game you were sitting on Wonwoo's shoulders, Minyoung was sitting on Jisoo's and Chan was sitting on Soonyoung. Since no one remembered to bring pool noodles to the beach everyone had to use their hands, but the premise of the game was simple: whoever was the last person standing (sitting) wins.

Ultimately Minyoung was the winner of the game. For being thin and dainty she was fairly strong and pushed both you and Chan into the ocean with ease. It was no wonder that was her favorite game to play. Eventually everyone left the water to dry off and relax, drinking sodas and canned beers.

That's when you noticed Seokmin wasn't outside anymore. Feeling concerned, you went to check on him inside the beach house and found him laying down in one of the bedrooms. Instead of bothering him like you wanted to you chose to leave him be, walking away from the open doorway. Seokmin heard you walk up to the door and then walk away moments later, making him feel a mixture of confusing emotions.

Seokmin was closed up in the bedroom for most of the day. He didn't leave the room until it was dinner time-when Soonyoung knocked on the door to tell him food was ready. When Seokmin finally left the room and joined everyone outside he immediately saw you standing next to Wonwoo as he grilled meat. He was showing you how to flip beef with the tongs without burning yourself.

He quietly groaned watching the two of you smile with each other, his mind wandering to unpleasant places. Seokmin sat down next to Chan and Jisoo who were already tipsy as they continued to throw back shots of soju and stuffing their faces with beef and kimchi. Wonwoo made you the food runner so every time he finished cooking a bunch of meat he had you take it to the table. That's when you finally realized Seokmin joined the table and was a lot quieter than usual.

You tried greeting him once and asked how his nap was, assuming he slept the entire time he was in the bedroom. But to your surprise all he did was nod and shrug at you. Now you were certain Seokmin really was avoiding you today, so you left him alone. Though it pained you to do so.

After dinner everyone gathered back inside and excessively drank more, except for you, Seokmin and Wonwoo. The three of you did your own things. Seokmin went back to the bedroom for a while, Wonwoo was cleaning up outside and you were watching a movie on tv with a beer in your hand. A little while later the drunkards of the group finally passed out.
