Taeyong has never been jealous of anyone but lately, he can't seem to get rid of the nagging spike of jealousy he feels whenever Jaehyun spends time with someone else. And as he often reminds himself, it's not even as if they are dating. But maybe...

"And then," Jaehyun took a deep breath, "he totally fell asleep!"
Ten laughed. "Wow, talk about anti-climatic."
"It was such a good moment, ugh," Jaehyun said, drinking another shot.
Winwin snorted. "It wasn't that huge a moment, to be honest. If you want to confess, you should do it grand but like also subtle. See what I mean?"
They were sitting in a seedy side-street restaurant, drinking soju and gossiping over all the stuff Ten had missed. It had been a whole day since Jaeyong had made up and Jaehyun was going slightly crazy wondering what would happen next.
He said, "No, Winwin, I don't see what you mean. It's not like you actually confessed to—"
Winwin shot him a look.
"Okay, okay." He held up his hands, surrendering the topic. "Besides, Taeyong's older, don't you think he should make a move?"
"What sort of shitty logic is that?" Winwin said.
Ten was quiet before he downed a shot too. "I don't know, man. 95 line is kind of really bad at this whole love thing, I guess."
The other two hummed in affirmation, silence quickly overtaking the table.
"Wait, did something happen?" Winwin asked Ten. Jaehyun looked at him in concern too.
"No, no." Ten shook his head. "Nothing happens." He turned to the restaurant owner. "Can we have another bottle, please?"
Jaehyun and Winwin exchanged looks.
Ten laughed. "Guys, it's nothing. Seriously. I think the alcohol is getting to me."
"It's really late and we've already drunk way past our limit. We should go," Jaehyun said.
"Just one more bottle," Ten pleaded cutely.
Winwin replied, "Okay but I'm not drinking." He watched as the other two clinked glasses. "Your aegyo is horrendous, Ten."
"You hate me 'cause you ain't me, bitch." Ten laughed.
An hour later, Winwin was somehow dragging along his two absolutely drunk friends. He muttered, "See this is why I said no more drinks. Who even drinks so much?"
Jaehyun was not a loud drunk. He just went real quiet and spaced out. Directing him to walk without faltering was the only problem. That and listening to his vehement whispers of "I'm not drunk, Winwin-ah. I never get drunk." Ten, on the other hand, thought belting out old One Direction songs at three in the night was hilarious and proceeded to sing and giggle every chance he got.
Winwin told him to shut up, not very politely too, and pushed the two of them into the dorm. He deposited Ten on the couch with a "If I hear any sound remotely relating to living while we're young, I'm going to throw you out. And you," he pointed to Jaehyun, "just go to sleep."
