This is actually two chapters that I combined, that's why there's a weird space in the middle.

Jisoo's P.O.V

It got late.

I don't know when the house got so crowded. Wonwoo and Mingyu invited some people over, and those people invited people, and now the entire house was filled. Usually, I was all for parties, but this Friday I wasn't interested.

Jeonghan was drunk.

"Woah, woah.." I grabbed Jeonghan's arm, wrapping it around my shoulder. "You don't look too good..don't drink that anymore." I took the can out of his hands. It was probably his sixth or seventh, I really didn't anticipate him to drink so many. He must've known it was alcohol, right? He softly whined in protest.

I guided him carefully over to the side of the room. "I don't feel very good.." He slurred, slumping a bit to lean against me. "No wonder." I sighed under my breath. "Maybe you shouldn't stay anymore." I offered, weary of his drunk state in the midst of all these people.

I glanced around the loud room to find Junhui with my eyes. If they really are dating, why wasn't Jun in my place? He barely seemed to care about Jeonghan and it made me frustrated. I don't know why. Didn't they hate each other just the other day, anyways?

"Shua," he hiccuped. "Do you care about me?"

I bit the inside of my cheek at the sudden question. He doesn't know what he's saying.

"Of course." I rubbed his back, that was the most I could do for him the way he was.

"Shua.."

"Yes?"

"Is Soonyoung okay?" He hiccuped again, making me shake my head. "You're more important right now."

"I really like you."

"..What?" Did I hear him right?

"I said is Soonyoung okay?"

"No..the other thing..never mind." I sighed. Did he really say what I think he said? I guess I'll never know. I lifted my head, frowning a bit. "I really think you should go home, I'm going to call Seungcheol. Is that okay?" It wasn't really a question though.

Han shook his head, stumbling out of my grip. "No..no, don't call him." We had to sort of yell so we could hear each other. "Why not?" I leaned closer to hear him.

"I have to apologize to Soonyoung!"

"That..he has nothing to do with what I just asked-" he cut me off.

"I gotta find him.." He pouted drunkly.

"Jeonghan, wait. You're in no condition to form a proper apology, I can barely understand you as it is."

I watched as Jeonghan pulled back from me with unbalance in his steps. "I'm gunna go look for him." He slurred, and before I could protest again he vanished into the crowd of people.

"Shit." I sighed heavily.

I pulled out my phone, dialing Seungcheol's number. He picked up after a few rings.
