The one (Neo fanfic)

Chapter 9 (Raken part 1)

Raken chapter for y'all since I've been away for like forever

"Okay so I must warn you. Hyuk can be a little blunt, it's kinda just him. You know?"

"Uh huh"

"But he's a real nice kid you get me. Sure he blatantly has no respect for his hyungs and sometimes I feel like pushing him out of a window but after all he's part of the family you know?"

"Yep"

"He's also a bit of a sarcastic twat bu-"

"Okay Jae. Inhale for 3 and exhale for 3" Wonshik let's out a chuckle, grabbing his hand with a firm squeeze "we're going to meet a friend of yours not meet the queen of England"

"Funny you should say that. Sometimes I think he thinks he's royalty" he sniggers into his scarf

"I'm sure it'll be fine. Stop panicking"

He sighs deeply. Watching the snow gently fall from the sky "I wonder how Hakyeon and Teakwoon Hyung are" he ponders with his nose scrunched up

"They're probably doing fine. I know Hyung can be a little reserved but it's nothing like how he used to be six months ago. You wouldn't have been able to get a word out of him. When I first met him, having a conversation with him was more me talking and him nodding. Plus from what I hear, Hakyeon hyung can't stop talking so there's really no need for him to when his area of expertise is listening. They're like the perfect friends!" he finishes with a grin 

"Well Hakyeon does like to talk an awful lot but Teakwoon hyung seems okay with that"

"I must admit. I've seen Hyung smile more in the past couple of days than I have my entire time knowing him"

"Hakyeon has that effect on people. He'll rarely let anything bring his mood down. Except for the time Hyuk threw a party in Hakyeons house for his 20th, with his concent and the only rule being that it was only supposed to be a couple of friends but more and more people were turning up and I didn't have the heart to tell them to leave. I thought a drink would calm my nerves and that one drink led to many more drinks. Hakyeon came home to find his house a mess, jam packed and everyone wasted. Including me"

"Was he angry?"

"We didn't think so at first. He greeted everyone so calmly. Said hey to everyone he knew but, by the time he reached me. I could see the fire in his eyes. I had never been so scared in all of my life. I tried to convince him it really was Hyuk's idea but until this day he still believes it was my idea. Hyuk's good at getting away with things like that given that he's the youngest of us all. He has the power of innocence and he'll use it every time"

"Well he sounds like an utter delight"

"He's the spawn of Satan don't let him convince you otherwise"

"Duly noted. So where exactly does this little devil live. My fingers are going to start turning blue if I don't get a little warmth to them" Wonshik breaths into his hands, heating them up the slightest

"We're almost there. It's the apartments another block away and as for the frostbite, you would be the one to come out into the snow without gloves" he grins, wriggling his fingers

"Okay so maybe I'm not as prepared for the winter as you are but you don't have to rub it in. I'll have to have at least four fingers amputated by the time we reach Hyuks. Whiles yours stay nice and toasty"

"You're such a little kid sometimes" he laughs, grabbing Wonshik's hand and stuffing it in his jacket pocket

"Oh there we go that's warm. You have such great ideas" Wonshik grins. Shoving his other hand in his pocket
