"STAY AWAY FROM ME!"

minho is jolted awake by jisung's screaming from the other apartment. the clock reads 3:08.

"what's wrong?" minho asked, sitting up immediately, worried that something terrible is happening to his neighbor. what if there was a burglar?

"there's a really big spider on the wall!"

minho groaned loudly and flopped back down on his bed, getting comfortable again. 

"you scared the shit out of me, i thought it was something serious."

"that spider is something serious! if you could see how big it is, you'd agree with me." he continued as minho remained silent. "help me!"

"i don't know what you want me to do," minho said, flinching as jisung yelled at the spider again.

"come kill it for me, please, i'm begging you!"

"hmm... i'm too comfy."

"minho!" the exasperation in jisung's voice made minho laugh a little.

"just kill it by yourself. it's just a little spider. it's more scared of you than you are of it."

"i don't know, i'm pretty scared of it..."

"goodnight, jisung," minho called out, rolling over on his side and shutting his eyes.

"oh my god, WHERE DID IT GO?!?!" minho found jisung's panicky voice amusing. "it was just there a second ago, oh my god."

"it probably fell on the carpet," minho said, shrugging his shoulders to himself.

"what if it crawls in my bed?" jisung asks, worry still laced in his voice.

"so what? it won't hurt you."

"how do you know that? what if it's the kind of spider that kills you?!"

"don't worry about it, jisung. in a year, we swallow eight spiders when we sleep, anyway." minho's lips curled into a smile as he told jisung about the urban legend he heard all the time as a child, leaving out the part that it's an urban legend, of course.

"no, you're making that up! please tell me you're making that up!"

"goodnight, jisung!"

"oh my god, i'm burning the apartment building down." at the silence, jisung whined. "you're so mean, minho, i would do the same thing for you." more silence. "well, maybe not kill a spider, but you get the point."

"i can't hear you, i'm sleeping." minho reminded the boy, a smile still present on his lips. 

"if you could see the face i'm making right now," jisung grumbled.

"i don't even know what you look like." minho yawned.

"shut the fuck up, you're supposed to be sleeping."

"touché."
