9.

it was weirdly hot since morning and gunil had no clue what was the reason behind this sudden rise of temperature. when he walked out of his and jiseok's shared room, even though he seemingly got a good amount of sleep and rest, he still somehow felt like wanting to sleep again and he told himself that there was no way he would be going out for the day.

when he walked in the living room, he was met with hyeongjun who was lying on the couch with one leg hanging from the side and another one bent. his eyes half closed. and jiseok who was fixing a big bed sheet on the floor.

❝what are you doing?❞ gunil placed the mug with iced coffee on the small glass table and looked at jiseok. ❝jun. that was for me.❞ he then let out a small sigh, watching hyeongjun drink his iced coffee.

flashing the eldest among them the most adorable smile with his bunny teeth peeking, ❝sorry, it's just so hot today for no reason, i needed something to cool down.❞ hyeongjun explained, placing the mug back on the table and went to his previous position, closing his eyes.

gunil took a seat on the floor, and crossing his legs repeated the question he asked jiseok just a few seconds ago.

straightening up to face the eldest among them, ❝i don't know if it's weather or what, but i'm sleepy as fuck.❞ jiseok whined, pouting and after making sure that the bed sheet was perfectly placed on the floor, he sat on it, still looking at gunil. ❝and because it's so hot, i decided to make this.. thing, and sleep here.❞ jiseok flashed gunil that bright smile of his and leaned back lying down there. ❝jun, pass the pillow.❞ noticing that it was rather uncomfortable lying like that, jiseok asked without even moving.

throwing the asked pillow towards the elder's direction without even looking properly, hyeongjun clicked his tongue at jiseok's stupidity, being almost sure that the elder wouldn't be able to fall asleep like that. while gunil watched him with a small smile displaying on his lips.

❝can i also lie here?❞ jungsu walked in with half closed eyes and noticing jiseok in such position, made him want to also lie there beside his friend. plus, he was sure it would be at least not as hot as in their rooms and he would actually get more and better sleep.

turning to the side and getting more comfortable, ❝yes, but no cuddles. it's too hot.❞ jiseok warned, closing his eyes. oh, he loved cuddles, a little too much and cuddling with jungsu was always one of the beat things out there, but not when it was this hot. jiseok knew, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

❝sure.❞ understanding the younger's situation, which in fact was the same as his, jungsu agreed quickly, lying down beside jiseok. not like he was going to cuddle anyone in this hot weather. even though, he too loved that kind of affection a lot.

silence fell in the living room and gunil and hyeongjun didn't even notice how seungmin walked in the room, rubbing his eyes.

❝what the fuck is this weather?❞ he whined, looking around the living room noticing jiseok and jungsu lying down on the floor. he then turned to gunil, with a rather questionable look.

when the eldest among them finally noticed him, ❝you are sleepy too right?❞ he asked, then pointing at the two who were most definitely already asleep. ❝you can lie down there, i'm pretty sure you will be able to fall asleep. and i don't think they will mind it.❞

shrugging, seungmin didn't question further as to who was the one coming up with this idea, assuming it probably was jiseok, and just went there, lying down beside jungsu.
