"It's not dumb, but whatever you say." Seungmin rolled his eyes before chuckling.

Jeongin's eyes finally looked away from his phone as Seungmin snapped.

"C'mon, whatcha wanna do? Watch a movie? I have games." Seungmin asked, leaning the "conversation" as usual.

Jeongin only shrugged, his hand gently clinging onto Seungmin's shirt as he was dragged along.

"Actually, scratch that. We're getting food." Seungmin said, pulling Jeongin out of his room and grabbing his keys.

Jeongin seemed to get a little silently irritated with being dragged along, but it was ok since it was Seungmin.

Seungmin dragged Jeongin out the his car, unlocking it as the two got into their seats. Jeongin instantly buckled his seatbelt.

"Where do you wanna eat?" Seungmin asked. He should've known damn well Jeongin would just shrug.

"Alright.. well, we'll drive around and figure it out." Seungmin said, pulling out of the driveway.

"Seung.." Jeongin muttered suddenly.

"Hm?" Seungmin's head turned, looking at him still only half pulled out of the driveway.

Jeongin pointed beside him, Seungmin looking confused. He was trying to point at the seatbelt that Seungmin was clearly not bothered to use.

"What are you pointing at?" Seungmin furrowed his eyebrows, completely oblivious.

Jeongin finally just leaned over Seungmin and grabbed the top of the seatbelt, pulling it down and buckling him in with an exasperated sigh.

"Oh. You could've just told me." Seungmin chuckled, backing out of the driveway.

Yeah, they both knew damn well Jeongin wasn't gonna use his words.

"Sungie~"

"Stop it! I will slap that stupid ass smirk off your face if you call me that again!" Jisung threatened, laughing as he tackled Minho to the couch.

"I swear to god, we're always third wheeling those bastards." Hyunjin muttered to Chan, dodging the Minho that came flying onto the couch.

Chan chuckled, nodding in agreement. "Or maybe, you're just lonely."

"Says you! You're the one with another boy hanging out with your boyfriend right now. He ditched you~" Hyunjin teased, laughing slightly.

"Shut the hell up, it's not like he can't have friends." Chan grumbled, crossing his arms.

"Oh whatever, they're alone right now, they could be doing anything. The mute boy could be stealing your man right now, Channie!" Hyunjin only laughed harder at Chan, trying to grab his arms.

"Fuck off, you're the one fighting with your little boy toy." Chan snapped back.

Hyunjin went silent with anger, pulling his hands away from Chan instantly before finally muttering something. "First off, he is not a toy-"

"See? You're getting all defensive of him!" Chan exclaimed, pointing an accusatory finger at Hyunjin.

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"Can y'all quiet down a bit? You're like, practically screaming." Jisung suddenly spoke up, snapping Hyunjin and Chan out of their little shouting argument.

In fact, the two had been so infatuated in arguing with eachother to notice Minho being gone. That must've been why it had gotten so quiet, other than the two's gradually raising volume.

"Yeah, yeah. Sorry. But, where's Min?" Hyunjin spoke up

"His dad called him. Started chewing him out so he stepped outside for a bit." Jisung explained with a small sigh, wrapping himself up in a blanket.

"Damn, what'd he even do this ti-"

"Alright, I have to leave. Sorry, y'all." Minho said as he swung the door back open, grabbing his keys and phone from off the coffee table.

"Wait!" Jisung grabbed Minho's shirt as he tried to go back to the door. "Can't you see if I can come with you?"

"C'mon Jisungie, don't you wanna hang out with us?" Hyunjin chuckled, poking his side, causing him to jump a bit.

"Aw c'mon, let him go with his little soulmate, Hyunjin." Chan pitched in with the teasing.

Soulmate? Minho thought. Are they really that keen on this whole shipping thing?

Minho let out a gentle sigh before speaking. "My dad just bitched me out again. It's on me since i didn't tell him I was staying at someone's place.. again. But I'll try, I'm not guaranteeing anything."

"Again? Who's house was it last time? Cause I know it wasn't mine." Hyunjin butted in, furrowing one eyebrow.

Minho's thoughts instantly shot back to when he rushed to Jisung's house after work, only to find him crying. The thought of it alone made him upset, but his mood lightened a bit when he remembered calming Jisung down, and cuddling him, of course.

"Not important. Point is, I need to get home." Minho changed the topic, not wanting to reveal anything about that night, especially to avoid Jisung's embarrassment.

"Jisung, I'll ask my dad quickly and let you know, ok?" Minho spoke softly, his gaze shifting to Jisung as he nodded slightly.

Meanwhile, Jeongin was being roughly dragged around through a convenient store by Seungmin who was grabbing whatever snacks he thought they'd like, as if Seungmin didn't trust him to walk on his own. It wasn't uncommon for Seungmin to act like this, most people he was close with had to deal with it on a daily basis.

Jeongin was just lucky he had the patience, or better yet the silence, to deal with it.
