I created this fic with Idreamt_once on Ao3 and she write a lot of it so basically all credit goes to her. GO READ HER FICS

Jaehyun curled up on his bed and scrolled through his phone. Doyoung was still studying (or so he claimed), so he was alone in their room, acting like a child and making himself as small as possible in his duvet. The strange feelings from the fansign haven't left him, but were instead placated. Jaehyun couldn't help but feel that something was off about his members. Kun had ordered jjajangmyeon, and the manager had agreed to pay. Kun would never allow the members to buy food, claiming that it was unhealthy, and the manager would never agree, much less pay for it. Doyoung and Jungwoo had cleared the table without being asked, and Jeno had volunteered to shower last. Donghyuck and Chenle had actually gone to bed without arguing with each other over who gets to hug the giant Rilakkuma. Perhaps the most unsettling one was that Ten wouldn't stop smiling. Ok, to say that Ten never smiled was an overstatement, Jaehyun knew, but Ten smiling this much was suspicious. Very suspicious. Jaehyun felt as though his members knew something that he didn't, and it was disturbing his sleep. He sighed. It was almost midnight, he should be getting as much sleep as he possibly could. He was just about to put his phone down when it lit up with a new message.

Unbeknowst by Jaehyun, the members were having a secret meeting in Mark and Donghyuck's room.

"Well, I'd say part one is a success." Mark said. The others nodded, except for Chenle, who was busy snoring on Kun's shoulder (read: Kun was going to carry him back to their room later).

"I'm never doing that again, though." Mark said, leaning back into Hyuck's pillows.

"It was just Amazon, Mark." Ten said.

"Yes, but to make sure that the person we wanted to buy the album bought it was so complicated. I could have made so much more money if I'd let it auction!" Mark complained.

"How did you guys do that?" Jungwoo asked.

"Oh, Doyoung hacked the credit cards." Mark shrugged.

"Doyoung did what?" Kun whisper-shrieked.

"It wasn't that difficult, Johnny Seo really shouldn't leave his credit card number saved with his account."

"How do you know he even had an account?" Kun asked.

"He's American," Mark replied, rolling his eyes, "Literally every American does."

"Oh shit, you right." Kun nodded.

"But Mark isn't American?" A half-asleep Chenle slurred from his perch on Kun's shoulder.

"Oh, Canada." Hyuck agreed.

"On to part two," Ten cut across, "Mark, did you give the information?"

"Yes, though Duckie made it awkward," Mark confirmed.

"Hey! I did not," Donghyuck argued, hitting Mark with the giant Rilakkuma.

"Yes, you did," Mark countered, voice rising to match Donghyuck's.

"Shush, children," Kun said, "can't let Jaehyunnie know, can we now?"

"What if Taeyong doesn't act upon the information?" Doyoung whispered, worried.

"Oh, he will." Jeno asserted. The other members raise their eyebrows at Jeno's certainty.

"How do you know?" Jungwoo asked.

"Because Taeyong's in love," Jeno replied with a shrug of his shoulders. A pause.
