[ChaSang] Depend on Me Again

"Depend on Me Again"

(A/N: I found this draft on my phone which was written last year before Hakyeon's military announcement! I didn't know if I wanted to share it or not but here it is anyways.)

Sanghyuk has been quietly staying at home lately instead of going out in the middle of the night like before to hang out with his friends. He's been awfully quiet in general and the leader couldn't help but worry like usual.

"Hyogi, do you want to order pizza tonight?" Hakyeon suggested even though he wasn't a big fan of pizza himself. He likes Korean food more than ever but the younger ones of the group always like junk food.

"I'm fine," Hyuk gave a short reply.

"Um, then how about Chinese food? Or gopchang?" Hakyeon made another attempt to ask for the younger's preferences.

"You don't even eat gopchang."

"I do now. So, let's have some!" the leader said enthusiastically even though he was really fond of his own suggestion.

"You don't have to force yourself to like something you didn't like in the first place. Aren't you tired of it?"

"Huh?"

Hyuk looked at Hakyeon for a minute, wanting to say something but didn't in the end.

"Never mind. I'm not hungry," the youngest said and simply retreated back to his room.

This made Hakyeon extra worry but he didn't know what was going on in the younger's mind.

"Kong-ah, you know what's wrong with Hyogi lately?" Hakyeon decided to ask the second youngest.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Hongbin asked back as he stuffed his mouth full of grapes that were sitting at his desk while he plays Overwatch. He obviously wasn't paying attention to the situation just now or what the leader was going on about.

"Hasn't he been a bit ... too quiet lately? I don't even see him gaming with you or Jaehwan anymore. He's not sick or anything, is he?"

"I don't know. He looks fine to me. Maybe he's got a girlfriend or something."

"W-what?!" Hakyeon jumped. "When? Who? Why don't I know about it?"

"I said maybe. I don't know what's up with him. Why do you always come to me to ask about Sanghyuk anyways?" Hongbin finally let go of his keyboard and mouse to interrogate the leader.

"Well, you two are the closest... so I thought he'd tell you everything," Hakyeon assumed.

"Not everything. That kid's got more secrets than he looks. Why don't you just ask him yourself?"

"That's easier said than done."

"Well, don't make me do the dirty work. Man up and ask Sanghyuk or just forget it. You're probably overthinking things like always, anyways," Hongbin said.

Hakyeon stared at Hongbin for his useless advice and left with a disappointing sigh.

The next day, Hakyeon found another person to bombard his questions with about Hyuk.

"Jaehwan-ah," Hakyeon grabbed hold of the younger vocalist.

"What's up, hyung?" Jaehwan said as he hummed along with his musical script in the living room.

"Have you been talking with Hyogi lately? Do you notice anything strange?" Hakyeon asked.

"Strange? Nope. Why?"
