Just Before The Dawn [DaeJae]

Twenty three

It didn't take long to find Daehyun, he was back on the sofa on the living room, for once not speaking to anyone. Youngjae sat down next to him and sighed, for no particular reason, but still it made Daehyun look at him. 

"You okay?" 

"Yes, just getting a bit tired." 

"Aw, maybe we should leave soon. I'm stating getting sleepy as well. Are you still high though?" 

Youngjae nodded. "I think so. I feel relaxed." 

"That's good... Do you like it?" 

"Yes, because I am less insecure." 

"I can tell" the older grinned, "You talk more than usual. Oh, where's Junnie by the way?" 

Youngjae closed his eyes for a moment, when he started feeling dizzy. "In the kitchen. He met someone he knows if I got that right." 

"Oh, nice. Then we should leave them alone for a bit. I don't feel like getting up anyways." He yawned, then wrapped an arm around Youngjae's shoulders. "Jae. Tell me about you, I want to get to know you more." 

"What do you want  to know?" 

"Anything. Where do you live? Do you have siblings?" 

"Yeah I have a brother but I don't live at home. I live in a dorm because... it's closer to school" he sighed, "And my parents felt too stressed with both of their sons home at once so when I turned sixteen they said I was old enough to live alone and sent me to live in the dorm. My brother and I don't get along very well." 

"That sucks... How often do you see your family then? Do you go home on weekends?" 

"No, just in the holidays longer than a week. I could go more often but... i don't think they would like that." 

"Oh... So you just spend all your time with your dorm mates?" 

The younger shook his head. "I don't know my dorm mates." 

"Then what do you do all day?" 

Youngjae shrugged. "Anything I feel like. It's not a problem for me to be alone." 

Daehyun sighed and pulled him closer. "I don't think I could deal with that. You're always alone, that can't be healthy..." 

"As I said, it's okay, I'm used to it." He looked at the older, noticing a bit of worry in his eyes. 

"Still. If you ever feel like you need some company, text me and I'll come over or you can come to my place." 

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind." he said, when Seokjae approached them. 

"Dae, could you tell your friend it's not nice to fuck in other people's kitchen? It's a bit disturbing..." he laughed and flopped down next to them. "I think he had a bit too much though." 

Immediately, Daehyun got up. "I think it really is time for us to leave. Jae, come on let's go get that boy away from whoever has dared seducing him." 

The two of them went to the kitchen, the door was wide open and there were already a few people staring at what was happening. Junhong was sitting on the edge of the table, Yongguk standing in front of him, his hands under the younger's shirt. The two of them were in the middle of a really passionate make-out session, neither of them seemed to notice someone had entered the room. 

Daehyun closed the door, before clearing his throat. "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" 

Finally, Junhong looked at him. "Huh?" 

"What the hell are you doing? I thought you had a boyfriend." 

The boy started grinning, jumped down from the table and took Yongguk's hand. "He is my boyfriend. He's the one I told you about!" 

His partner nodded, smiling. "I'm Yongguk, nice to meet you." 

"I see..." Daehyun mumbled, "Still we should go back to the hotel, I think we all had enough alcohol." He grinned, seeing Junhong struggle with standing on his own. 

Suddenly, Youngjae had to grab onto the edge of the counter. He felt dizzy and noticed he had drunk too much. 

"Jae, are you okay?" He heard Daehyun's voice and managed a nod. 

"Just drunk... feeling dizzy..." 

"So two to carry home. How am I going to do that, boys?" 

"I can help" Yongguk said, still holding Junhong so the boy would not fall, "I'm not that drunk, I can carry Jello so you can take care of your friend." 

Daehyun nodded. "That would be really nice. It's not far anyways."
