"I don't understand" Jongin said before taking a sip of some fresh coffee that Kyungsoo had just made. They were sat at the kitchen table, across from each other and taking about what happened last night. "You were only sleepy"

"I was? Oh. " was all Kyungsoo replied with.

"You seriously can't remember anything about letting me stay?"

"No.." Kyungsoo scratched his head. "I mean there was limited alcohol because it was Suho... so it wasn't like I got drunk or anything at the same time"

"Well... did you, um... not actually want me to stay then?"

Kyungsoo was quiet for a moment which only made Jongin feel embarrassed and think worse.
He began to feel ashamed of even showing his face; this was the most embarrassing thing that's probably ever happe— "no, it's not like that."

"It's okay if you didn't, I can just leave" Jongin started, his cheeks in flames.
"Sorry for any inconvenience"

"Jongin,no, wait—" just as Jongin was about to stood up, Kyungsoo grabbed hold of his sleeve and pulled him back down to his seat. "Jongin, it's not that I didn't want you to stay... it's just.. if I wasn't so sleepy and drowsy or whatever it was , then I probably wouldn't have asked you to stay."

Jongin stared at the older boy. Was he supposed to feel different? "T-that didn't, really... explain much"

"I mean, although I wouldn't have asked that, it doesn't mean I still wouldn't like it" Kyungsoo explained. "I wouldn't have asked that because I would have thought that it was stupid and you wouldn't have wanted to stay."

"Ahh.."

"So stay a little longer?"

Jongin licked his dry lips and took a moment before his mouth formed a smile. He still felt embarrassed but he tried to ignore it . "O-okay"

Kyungsoo let go of his arm stood up with his mug. "Great. Now I'm going to make another cup of coffee and then we can sit down and watch a movie, yeah? That's if you want to?" As Kyungsoo made his way to the kettle, Jongin thought about what kind of movie he would suggest. And then he thought of all the things the two of them could do together during the movie—as if it was the perfect drama. Jongin though of how maybe he would get to cuddle and put his arm around the older and hold hands and— "Jongin?"

"W-what? What did you say?"

"I asked if you wanted to watch a movie? But you looked as though you didn't want to do that"

"Ah-no no! I do. Definitely. Sounds great."

Kyungsoo chuckled a bit and looked to his feet before carrying on what he was doing. "Shall I go find something to watch?" Jongin asked.

When Kyungsoo agreed, Jongin disappeared into the living room where the older had said the movies were. He looked into a small open cupboard next to the tv and found a selection of films. It wasn't as big as Jongin had at home but that was only because Chanyeol loved movies and bought one whenever he could. It was enough though.

"How about a scary film?" Kyungsoo shouted from the kitchen.

Jongin gulped and sighed; he really didn't like scary films whether it was horror, thriller or whatever other ones there was—he couldn't stand them. That was because he could never get through a whole movie without jumping out of his skin. His roommates always picked on him for that even though neither Chanyeol and Baekhyun were the most toughest of men. In fact Baekhyun was always the one to keep his arm linked with Chanyeols and his face buried into the guys shoulder.

"Maybe something else would be better" Jongin replied back trying not to sound so awkward that Kyungsoo would find out his small fear.
"How about something funny?"
