How it Goes

Chapter 6: Can't Think

Kyungsoo's POV-

    I was in a deep sleep until I heard my alarm clock's barking tone. It was 8:00 a.m. I wanted to continue to sleep but I rolled over and put my shirt on. I looked over at Kai who wasn't effected by my alarm in the slightest which meant I had to wake him up. * I'm very used to this *
    " Oh Jongin." I whispered pinching his nose. He flinched pushing my hand off.
" Kai. " I grabbed a pillow to hit him. " I will hit you." He rolled to the opposite side. He rolled to the opposite side. I still hit him.
    " Okay okay! Five more minutes please. " He said pulling the covers over his head. I rolled my eyes.
    " No now we have- " He cut me off and placed his hand over my mouth to hush me. I pushed him off.
    " Join me." He said poking his head out of the covers. " You look tired too."
His eyes looked deep into mine. My heart was beating so fast. That feeling again- it came back. I slowly eased myself next to him. A good distance apart. He turned to look at me and inched closer. I don't know why I felt anxious. We had to share a bed for practically all of 2014. But this felt totally new. He traced half circles under my eyes.
    " Those bags. " He giggled.
" Oh stop. " I pushed him away again. Then suddenly found myself staring at him. I couldn't stop. It felt natural though and the thing was, he was staring at me too.
    " Well we can't mess around this morning." I said breaking the silence. Kai nodded slowly rolling off the bed.
    " We need to be on the bus by 9:50 right?" Kai asked.
" Yeah and it's 8:30 now so we should get breakfast."
    " Um think I need tea first. " He said putting his shirt on.
" Oh! Uh... I think the hot water maker doesn't work. " I said trying to cover my mistake from yesterday.
    " I don't see anything wrong with it." He poked at the machine.  "Kyungsoo it works fine. What did you do earlier?"
   I shrugged. " I don't know how it works. " I said. Kai rolled his eyes.
" Alright well I'll show you. So first, you put a cup under the big hole where the hot water come out. Then, you pour the cold water in this side holder. Next it's very simple you just press the power button. Ok? See Kyung not every machine in America is impossible."
    I nodded embarrassed at how easy it was. He squished my face.
" Oh hyung, are you excited for today?" He asked.
   I really wasn't. I want to be home but it's so far. I wanted to sleep. I felt a strange way about Kai. So basically my mind wasn't stable. It was scrambled and I can't perform like this.
    " Um sure. " I lied. You?"
" So-so. I want to be home. "
    " I do too."
I heard our phones buzz. It's from Chanyeol.
    "He said they just got room service and there's a ton of food in their room if we want any. " I said reading his text.
    " Um... I might stay here." Kai said looking at the bed.
" Oh ok that's fine. Can I bring you some?" I asked. He shook his head.
    " Ok well I'll see you in a few. "
I waked down the hall to Chanyeol and Baekyun's room. He said his room was 529. I knocked on the door. No answer.
    " Chanyeol? Baek?" I heard some voices from inside and someone scrambling to the door. Chanyeol opened it with his shirt barley on his shoulder and and his hair all messed up.
    " Hey come on in!" He said welcoming me inside.
" I'm starving where's the food." I asked. He pointed to the tray with pancakes, fruit, and sausage and out of the corner of my eye I saw a messy Baekhyun come out of the bathroom.
    " Oh hey." Baekhyun said scratching his head.
" You guys look like you just got up." I grabbed a pancake.
    " Yep pretty much. " Chanyeol said looking at Baekhyun. He smiled. They were sitting next to each other.
    " So what did you guys do this morning?" Baekhyun asked me.
" Uh, I woke up. That's it. "
    " Nice so did we. Good to take it slow. " Baekhyun looked at Chanyeol. I saw his hand slide closer and closer to Chanyeols. He slapped his hand playfully. For some reason there was a strange aura in the room. Nobody else showed up, but I didn't care. I'll just eat my food and leave.

    The ride felt long. Everything did. All was blank again. My mind had so many thoughts but I didn't want to think. What's going on with me? I almost didn't feel comfortable in my own skin. Whatever it's probably just being Jet lag. After about 45 minutes of driving we arrived at the venue. We pulled in to a small warehouse behind where the groups could load in privately. We stepped off the bus and got lead to our dressing room. It was pretty big. Everyone was kinda settling in, eating catering, practicing, talking, but I couldn't bring myself to get up out of my chair. My mind was in another world and I couldn't collect it.
