The one (Neo fanfic)

Chapter 7

It's evening by the time Hakyeon is woken, loud music pounding in his ears and successfully erasing all traces of sleep

He glances to his left, noticing the sheets have been made and Taekwoon no longer lays there. He decides that it's time to get up and starts his morning (evening actually) routine with a shower

Once showered he scours his closet for something acceptable, choosing a simple stylish outfit and makes quick work of dressing himself just as his door bursts open

"Wakey wakey, eggs and ba-... oh you're awake" Jaehwan stops short from pouncing on him as he awes at his risen figure "Now I don't get to abuse you" he sulks with a pout, clearly crestfallen at the missed opportunity

"How could I not be?, are you having a concert down there or something?." There's a second of silence as the gears start to turn in his head "OMG Jaehwan tell me you didn't throw another party because I will-"

"Kill me?" Jaehwan grins, leaning on the frame of his bedroom door

"No that's no fun, but I'll make you wish I had" he stomps his way over, pushing Jaehwan out with him

"First of all. No I didn't throw a party and secondly, That party was so not my idea, I keep telling you Hyuk was the mastermind behind that but, you fell for that sneaky fox's innocent looks. Just for the record, the music wouldn't have been a bother, if you had actually been up at a normal time instead of sleeping your life away" Jaehwan tuts with a shake of his head

"Says you, mister I'll just wake up at quarter to six in the evening like it's the most natural thing to do" he huffs in annoyance, stopping halfway on the stairs to glare back at him

"You can't say anything, it's 2 O'clock in the evening" Jaehwan pinches his cheeks, squishing them together

"I will kick you down these stairs, don't think I wouldn't. You know I would" he threatens only half joking

"Scared" Jaehwan sniggers and he contemplates actually kicking him down the stairs, changing his mind (only because he doesn't want witnesses) when Wonshik appears at the bottom

"Hyung you're finally awake, good morning" Wonshik grins following them to the kitchen, where they find Taekwoon seated at the table, looking just as annoyed as he is with the noise

"What's so good about it" he grumbles, taking whichever seat was nearest to him

"Don't mind him, he just hasn't had his coffee yet" Jaehwan reassures the startled youngster, already preparing the hot beverage 

Once handed to him, he hugs the mug close, breathing in its bitter aroma with a satisfied smile

"Now he'll be his usual ray of sunshine like self" Jaehwan pats him on the shoulder "well he'll be as cheery as he can for someone who threatens my life on more than just the odd occasion" he adds thoughtfully

He ignores him, lifting the mug to his lips when a hand collides with the back of his head sharply

"It has just been made, don't drink it now idiot, don't you remember what happened last time?" Jaewhan points an accusatory finger at him

"What happened last time?" Taekwoon speaks for the first time today and he begins cackling

"I burnt Jaehwan last time" his cackles turn to full blown laughter when Jaehwan turns red

"Yes let's all laugh at Jaehwan for Hakyeon's mistakes, you're funny. Drink your coffee and don't hurt yourself" Jaehwan sulks to the door, grabbing his jacket on the way

"Oh don't be so salty you big baby, I gave you ice for it didn't I" he tries to control his laughter and struggling an awful lot as a few giggles are let out
