Like Ooh - Aah

Chapter 4 // D.O.n't Mess With Satansoo

The car ride to K-con, with the other eight members, barely registered in D.O.'s mind. He was too distracted by the memory of what happened between him and Woozi to notice anything around him. He didn't even mind the constant, obnoxious chatter of Baekhyun and Chanyeol, which was saying something.

The thing that bothered him about his encounter with Woozi was how close he had gotten to him without Kyungsoo trying to stop him. Why didn't he stop Woozi? He hated it when people got into his personal space. The way the idol had looked at him didn't sit right with D.O. either. Woozi looked like a predator stalking his prey. It looked like he wanted to devour Kyungsoo and it scared him.

He wasn't scared of Woozi, though. He was almost certain he could take that pipsqueak in a fight. No, he was afraid of his own stupid reaction.

"You look cute when you blush."

Woozi's words rang in his mind like a siren. Kyungsoo hadn't even realized how warm his face felt until after it was mentioned and then he felt humiliated and confused. He should have knocked the cocky smirk off of his face but instead, D.O. was blushing like a fangirl.

It really didn't make any sense.

Kyungsoo shouldn't feel butterflies when he's being cornered against a wall by someone he barely even knows. After all, he already likes someone else.

Long after the car ride ended, D.O. found himself wandering in the crowded building full of fans, tourists, and idols. When he split away from the rest of EXO, Jongin had noticed and trailed after him like his life counted on it. Kyungsoo didn't mind. Jongin was his best friend in the band.

The two of them made their way through the busy convention with little issues. So far, no one had recognized them with their sunglasses, hats, and super casual clothes on. They were lucky because if even one person stopped to ask for an autograph, they would be swarmed by everyone in the immediate area.

"Hey, are you ok?" Jongin asked as they walked.

"Yeah. I'm fine."

"Are you sure? You seem kind of off."

Kyungsoo glanced at his friend, his eye twitching with mild annoyance but no one could see the movement past his shades. "Off? How so?"

"You've been zoning out a lot ever since we left the hotel. Did something happen back there with Woozi?"

D.O. was getting a little irritated that Kai kept trying to pry, but at the same time, he knew he was being ridiculous. Kai wasn't teasing him or anything. He genuinely wanted to know what was wrong so he could help. Kyungsoo took a deep breath to try to calm himself. Sometimes he really wished he wasn't so hot-tempered.

"Yeah, Woozi was really... strange" he admitted, feeling his face begin to burn at the understatement. Woozi had been incredibly strange and he wasn't sure if the idol had been toying with him or flirting.

Jongin tilted his head in response.

Kyungsoo sighed again, "He didn't do anything awful. He just backed me up against a wall and stared at me."

"That is strange! Did he say anything?"

"Well..." he started, fidgeting his fingers nervously, "He said I was cute."

Anyone else would have probably burst out into laughter at the explanation, but Jongin only smiled at him with a knowing look on his face. "I think he likes you."

D.O. stared down at his feet, doubt creeping into his mind. "Why would he like me? Why would anyone like me?"

"Don't say that Soo. You know you're a great catch," Kai said, "The real question is, do you like him too?"
