the second day of the students university week began with even more performances and games. everyone was having a blast, including ni-ki and sunoo. the whole time, they were together playing games, eating, and taking pictures. while the two were happy, one person was not.

daniel had been watching them from a far distance and seeing the two laughing and giggling definitely made him want to push through his plan quickly "hey. can you stop looking at them for a few minutes and have fun?" taki rolled his eyes and handed him a corndog "its not fun if sunoo isnt with me" daniel replied, taking a bite of his corndog afterwards.

taki clenched his fists and threw his corndog on the ground "can you stop doing that, please?! i know you dont like me but we've been friends since elementary daniel. can you atleast act like my friend? that's all i want from you! sunoo this sunoo that, everyday its sunoo! im sick of you and im sick of not feeling appreciated even though ive tried and tried. how long will you keep doing this, huh? if someone doesnt like you back, let it go and move on!" he yelled.

ever since they became friends, taki has never yelled at daniel like that so that was definitely a first. taki expected that he'd get a hug or an apology — but daniel had no expression on his face, which was starting to get scary "stop being possesive, taki" daniel whispered in his ear, and walked away.

— ♡ —

"i saw taki yelling at daniel earlier" sunghoon said in between in between bites of his food. the group had decided to hang out in jay's house after a long and tiring day of running around and playing games. it was only the second day of the university week and they were already exhausted plus, they haven't hung out all together in a while so once they found out they had free time, they immediately took the opportunity to hang out.

everyone was too immersed on the food jay and jungwon had prepared that they almost forgot to reply to what sunghoon said, fortunately heeseung was listening "taki? why would he yell at him?" heeseung asked, everyone else nodded — signaling sunghoon that they wanted to know "not sure but it was pretty intense. i think i heard him say sunoo's name?" he replied.

sunoo raised his eyebrows and swallowed the bungeoppang ni-ki gave to him "me? why me?" he asked. sunghoon shrugged his shoulders, leaving everyone else confused "doesnt taki like daniel?" jay asked while serving them drinks "yeah but i heard daniel likes someone else. not sure who though" jake replied "5 beers and 2 sodas? who gets the sodas?" ni-ki pointed at the drinks that jay placed on the table with a confused expression plastered on his face.

jungwon laughed "i dont want to get drunk today so one soda's mine and well.. the other one's yours" he explained. ni-ki groaned and glared at everyone "im 18! i can drink now you know!" he whined.

everyone else looked at him with an expression that said 'absolutely not'. he turned 18 last year, but they still treated him like a baby and although he acts like he hated it more than anything in the world, he secretly hoped that they'd treat him like that forever. something about being the youngest and having people care for you felt somewhat comforting to ni-ki, so he was thankful that he met his hyungs. "i dont want to get drunk tonight as well.. so ill just drink the soda" ni-ki rolled his eyes playfully, taking the can of soda afterwards.

after a few more hours of chatting and eating, everyone finally settled down and divided themselves into 4 groups since jay's house had 3 guest rooms "okay so jungwon and i will sleep in my room, jake and sunghoon in one guest room, sunoo and ni-ki in the other, and heeseung alone cause he kicks people off the bed" jay explained.

since they were roommates with their partners, no one complained and just nodded. ni-ki turned around to tell sunoo that they should head upstairs and sleep but the older was spaced out "you drank too much" ni-ki sighed. he bent down and placed sunoo's right arm on his shoulders to help him stand up.

"stop moving we're gonna fall off the stairs!" ni-ki cried. the older was practically a jelly right now. a few minutes later, they finally arrived at the room they were sleeping in. the second sunoo saw the bed, he quickly threw himself on it, not even bothering to remove his shoes.

ni-ki sighed and dragged the olders body to the right side of the bed, making sure his body was in a good position so he wouldnt wake up sore. he then took off his jacket and then his shoes, placing them in the closet "remind me to never let you drink again" ni-ki said to the sleeping male beside him.

"you look good even when you're sleeping, sunoo hyung" he giggled. the younger stood up to wash up and change his clothes and a few minutes later, he turned off the lights and laid down next to the older "ni-ki" he heard the older say "hm?" he replied.

he didnt reply for a few seconds but then the older faced him. they just looked at each other silently, making ni-ki smile "you should sleep sunoo. its late" he chuckled. sunoo nodded and quickly gave the younger a peck on the cheek before closing his eyelids.

ni-ki was left dumbfounded, he definitely did not expect that "thank you for taking care of me tonight" sunoo said. ni-ki smiled "always, sunoo" he replied, moving his body closer to the olders and snaking his arms around his waist, pulling him closer. the both of them quickly drifted off into a deep slumber.
