As the bottles of soju and cans of beers laid on the table, the team felt so triumphant, that everyone decided to take a sip. Well, a sip meant a whole bottle or three bottles, for some.
As the talking unfolded, the most attention landed of course on Jisung, as he was back safely.

"You should have seen how Mark swayed those knives! That was brilliant."
Hyesun exclaimed excitedly.

"You need to teach me."
She looked at the said boy, earning a chuckle.

"Thank you honey and for sure, I'll teach you."
Mark smiled sweetly, resting his arm on her shoulders.

"After couple of years of being a mother, I thought, that you weren't in shape, Soo."
Jeno sneered, while Kesoo deadpanned.

"Trust me, she's still better than you, dude."
Haechan laughed, earning kicks from the boy.

"Did Kenta do anything to you?"
Renjun asked Jisung, escaping the other conversation.

"Thankfully not. He was sure, you'd fall into his trap-  that's why he waited. Besides, the only minus is, that I didn't eat or sleep. Now, I feel like I don't need to eat anything, until Christmas."
Jisung chuckled, sipping on his beer.

As the conversation turned into a sudden debate, Jisung wanted to sneak out. Once he wanted to get up, he looked at Yuxi sitting in silence, lost in her own thoughts. He felt bad, that they weren't talking and wanted to fix that. Even, if she betrayed him and he still felt heartbroken about it, she saved his life, after all.

This time he stood up, extending his hand to grab hers. The boy didn't wait for her approval, instead, pulled her up, while sneaking out to the roof, holding tightly her hand in his.

"Where has Jisung disappeared?"
Jaemin asked dumbfounded.

"Yuxi's gone too."
Hyesun exclaimed, while her lips molded to a smirk.

"Lovebirds."
Kesoo giggled, opening another can of beer.

"What are we exactly doing?"
Yuxi asked the boy beside her, who still held her hand.

"I wanted to get some rest from them. They can be too much."

"Then, why didn't you go alone?" 

"Because, you also looked like you needed rest."
Jisung muttered, dropping her hand.

"Oh."
Yuxi mumbled uncomfortably and walked to the edge of the building, staring down at the lit up  lamps, on the streets.

"Don't think about jumping."
Jisung appeared next to her side, observing her face expression.

"I won't, dummy."
She chuckled, looking him in the eyes.
