"Are you okay?" Hoseok asked really obvious question. 

Hyungwon was holding his ankle with his hand. He was shivering from cold and the hairs on his arms were standing up. There was grass on his hair and he had small rash on top of his eyebrow from hitting the ground. He turned to look at Hoseok and nodded. 

"Back on the field", the coach said and Hyungwon stood up immediately, wincing a little as he put pressure on top of his left leg. "We can't lose this badly, man up now!"

"Hey, you can't do that!" Hoseok started to yell at him. He felt a weird rock on his stomach when he watched his friend running back on the field, pain showing from his face with every step he took. The coach didn't listen and was walking away. 

There was only few minutes left but Hoseok still couldn't stand seeing Hyungwon suffer on the field, falling down continually because of the wet ground and hurting leg. He felt like beating up the guy who was putting his friend in that situation. 

The rest of the game felt like forever and Hoseok was glad that it was over, even though the team he was cheering at lost one to nine. 

"I'll try to be quick", was the only thing Hyungwon said to him before disappearing to the building next to the field.

Hoseok felt sad for him. He was clearly really disappointed in himself by screwing up that opportunity to make a goal. Hoseok walked next to the building to wait for him. Minhyuk and Hyunwoo had left as soon as the game was over. 

Before even a few minutes passed, Hyungwon already came out. He was still wearing the same, wet clothes. The atmosphere in their changing room had probably been really bad. 

"Can I shower at your place?" he asked. 

"Sure, let's get going", Hoseok wanted to ask why but he knew this wasn't the right time. Hyungwon was the type of a person to be always really confident about himself but also to be the exact opposite at times like this. 

--

Hoseok was laying on his bed, playing with his phone when Hyungwon came out of the shower. They both had changed into sweatpants and a t-shirt. He threw something at Hyungwon who barely caught it. 

"What is this?

"It's a cold bag you idiot. Your coach is really irresponsible even though he might lose his best player", Hoseok said.

"Stop it", Hyungwon complained. He still felt embarrassed about his incident today. 

Hoseok walked on the other side of the bed where Hyungwon was standing and forced the boy to sit down on the bed by his shoulders. He took the cold bag from his hand and placed it on top of his ankle. "Don't move", he said and walked out of the room. 

Hyungwon sighed. As much as he hated being the center of attention, he still couldn't help but smile as he thought about Hoseok looking at him from afar with a wrinkle between his eyebrows caused by worry. 

Hoseok came back with a band-aids on his hands. "Mom is making us ramen", he said sitting on the bed next to Hyungwon. He brushed the boy's hair away from his forehead, revealing the cuts on it. Hyungwon inhaled sharply when Hoseok touched the cuts.

"Does it hurt?"

He nodded staring at Hoseok whose face looked really focused as he was putting the band-aids on. 

"Stop acting like a baby."

After taking care of Hyungwon, he turned his computer on and pulled a blanket on top of them. 

"Wanna watch a movie?" he asked scrolling through Netflix's bad selection of movies.

"Yeah."

"Let's choose this", he turned to look at Hyungwon to see his face. "Eurotrip, I think we haven't seen this before."

Because there weren't any resists, he started the movie. Next to him Hyungwon yawned already and stretched his arms, putting one of them behind Hoseok's shoulders. The other boy tried to be like he didn't even notice but inside he was smiling as Hyungwon scooted closer.

When his mom came in the room few minutes later with the steaming cups of noodles, he raised a finger in front of his mouth as a sign for her to keep quiet and leave.

Hyungwon had fallen asleep with his head on resting against Hoseok's chest. Hoseok was brushing the sleeping boy's still wet hair with his fingers.

Even though this was not an unfamiliar sight for her, she couldn't help but smile when she slowly close the door and left.

--

When Hyungwon woke up the next morning, he found himself laying with his head on top of Hoseok who was still sitting and had fallen asleep with his head in uncomfortable looking position and one arm around Hyungwon's shoulders.

He had probably been unable to move when Hyungwon had fallen asleep on him.

Hyungwon took the computer that was still on top of Hoseok's legs and put it away. He moved the other boy so that he would be laying on his back and placed a pillow under his head.

"Thanks", Hoseok said and Hyungwon's heart skipped a beat.

"You're awake?"

"I woke up when your weight left me", he answered.

"I didn't mean to fall asleep", Hyungwon avoided eye contact because he felt a little embarrassed.

"It's okay. I guess you were really tired."

"If you still want to sleep I'll wait for you", he suggested.

"Thanks", Hoseok said again.

Hyungwon stood up from the bed. "I'll go get something to eat."

"Love you."

The sudden confession made him to stop and slowly turn around to look at Hoseok who was staring at him.

"But no homo."

"Dude you almost got me scared for a second there", Hyungwon placed a hand on top of his heart and sighed in relief.

"You should have seen your face!" Hoseok laughed and watched as Hyungwon turned away again. "Aren't you gonna say it back?"

"No, you're disgusting", Hyungwon looked over his shoulder with annoyed face.

Hoseok jumped out of the bed and Hyungwon started to run away out of the room. "I dare you to say that again!"

"Well", he stopped for a second before continuing his run down the stairs. "You're disgusting."

"But you still love me though!"

"Get away from me", he tried to protest as Hoseok attacked him from behind, sneaking fingers on his sides. 

"Not before you admit that you love me", Hoseok started to tickle him and he immediately tried to wiggle away, screaming like he was being killed. 

"Okay, okay!" Hyungwon was about to fall on the ground. He was really ticklish and Hoseok knew it so it was often used against him. "I love you too", he said between his muffled cries. 

"Really?" Hoseok asked as he stopped. 

"No homo though."

"That wasn't so hard to say, was it?" he smiled proudly, looking at Hyungwon who was on his knees, panting because he hadn't been able to breathe when Hoseok attacked him. 

"What is going on here? Sounds like someone is getting killed", Hoseok's mother suddenly came from the living room. 

"He almost got", Hoseok explained pointing at Hyungwon who sent him a deathly glare. 

"Keep your killing down, some of us are trying to still sleep", his mother left and he turned to look at his friend, jumping a little when he saw the eyes of a person that was about to kill someone. 

"Chill", he said, looking at Hyungwon cautiously as he walked past to the refrigerator. "Want something? You're obviously not you when you're hungry?"

"Sure", Hyungwon turned his face back to normal and sat down next to the dining table. "Make me something."

"...yes sir."
