Hongjoong

Seongwha listened to the front door slam and knew that it was going to be a long night. He was sitting up against the wall next to his bed, Wooyoung tucked into one side and Mingi on the other. Yunho and Yeosang were hugging each other, laying at his feet and San was hugging Yunho from behind while Jongho was clinging to Yeosang. All of them had a long night and without their captain there, it was Seongwha's job to calm them down. Luckily he managed to do that but now he had one more younger brother to deal with and it was going to take a long time if the noise from downstairs was anything to go by. 

"How was the studio?" Seongwha hoped that if he was nice to Hongjoong, the leader would be nice back. It was wishful thinking. Hongjoong glared at him, doing eveyrthing ten times louder than usual. Wooyoung stirred a little when Hongjoong slammed his computer case down on the bed, making a loud thud. Seongwha pet Wooyoung's hair, getting the younger to calm down and gave Hongjoong a hard glare.

"If you wake even one of them, it will be the last thing you do" Seongwha warned. Hongjoong rolled his eyes. He knew that Seongwha was not kidding and he would feel bad if he did wake one of his dongsaengs but Hongjoong was too angry to care. 

"You shouldn't let them stay there. They need to learn to sleep on their own" Hongjoong snapped, more harshly than he meant to. 

"They know how to sleep on their own but there is nothing wrong with seeking comfort which they would have sought from you if you were here" Seongwha pointed out. The reminder that he was late coming home only put Hongjoong in a worse mood.

"Yeah well some of us have to actually work and can't spend all day playing house with grown men" Hongjoong walked over to the bed, trying to move Jongho. The maknae held on tighter to Yeosang, causing the older to start to wake up. Seongwha kicked Hongjoong's hand away from their maknae, being sure not to hit Jongho or Yeosang or wake Wooyoung. 

"What was that for?" Hongjoong yelped, nursing his hand. Seongwha's eyes were dark, he was being very protective and he knew it. But he had spent almost two hours trying to get all six of his members to sleep and he was not going to let Hongjoong waste those two hours. 

"Don't. Touch. Them. You and I are already going to talk tomorrow so I suggest you hurry up and get showered and go to bed. I am in no mood to deal with your bratty behavior tonight, Hongjoong" Seongwha kept his voice low so he didn't wake any of the six kids. And yes he knew they were grown men but they were his kids. His kids. 

Hongjoong seemed to realize that messing with Seongwha now, when the oldest was clearly tired and sleep deprived, was the worst idea. That would be like poking a sleeping bear. So he left and got showered, returning a moment later. He didn't say a word to Seongwha and climbed up to his bed. He wished that he could have Seongwha's comfort. Sometimes, wehn Hongjoong had a particularly bad day at the studio or got scolded for something like he had that night, he would climb down to Seongwha's bed and sleep there. Now that the other six were taking up his only older friend's bed, Hongjoong was forced to sleep in his own. Of course, if he had just asked, Seongwha would have made room for him and they could all have a sleepover. Seongwha's bed was certainly big enough for all eight of them. 

The next day, when Seongwha and Hongjoong woke up their room was mostly empty. Wooyoung was still asleep but Mingi had managed to get up without waking anyone else. Jongho had woken up before anyone else and carried Yeosang out of the room to give Seongwha some space. San had moved Wooyoung over to him so Seongwha could sleep and was carding a hand through his best friend's hair. 

"Hongjoongie" Seongwha climbed up the ladder to his captain's bed, gently waking the younger. Hongjoong swatted at his hand before finally getting up, glaring. He remembered the night before and how lonely he had felt all because Seongwha cared more about the younger members than him. Part of him knew that wasn't true but he had been vulnerable the night before so now everyone was going to have to deal with his anger.
