The Spring Dance

Eight

Hongseok and Hyojong pulled him into an alleyway. They were all laughing at each other, while a group of men ran by. It was nothing serious this time, just simply messing around with Hyun's men. When they were gone, Wooseok walked out of the alley. Hongseok wrapped his arm around his neck, pulling him down to his height.

"When did my little baby get so tall?" Wooseok laughed, shoving him. He fixed his hair, trying to stop smiling. "Why're you so smiley?" Wooseok rolled his eyes, walking away. Yanan had gone back to China for the small three day break they had. Leaving Wooseok to be bored in his house all day. So he went out with his other friends.

Hyojong hopped on his back, Wooseok instinctively holding him. He was the smallest of the group, but the most scary if you didn't know Him. They walked around the city for a while, until they decided to stop at a small arcade. Hyojong bounced off, giving the machine all his money.

Hongseok stuck around the front for a while, finding Shinwon already there. Wooseok chose to stay in the back, playing a round of the basketball shooting game. He had gotten a pretty good score, when something caught his eye. Yuto had walked in, his usual group of baseball boys behind him. He smiled softly to himself, before going back to his game.

After a while, he heard laughing and screaming. He looked around, seeing Hyojong playing with a slightly taller boy next to him. The other boy had won, turning to Hyojong with a smile on his face. His eye smiles must've caught Hyojong's attention, because the boy smiled at him fondly.

He turned back, surprised to see someone next to him. They were sort of hidden in the back, so Yuto didn't have to worry about his friends seeing them. "Never knew you could play basketball." Wooseok snorted, shooting the ball. It made it in the hoop, turning to look at Yuto.

"Years playing on the street pays off." He winked at him, catching the way the tips of his ears went pink. He smirked to himself, grabbing another ball. Yuto turned, starting up the machine next to him. They both played together, trying to score higher than the other. Eventually Wooseok ended up winning.

Yuto groaned, glaring at him playfully. "You cheated." Wooseok scoffed, laughing softly.

"How did I cheat? You've been by my side the whole time." Yuto shrugged, putting more money in.

"I'm going to play until I beat you." Wooseok laughed, shaking his head.

"Then we're gonna be here the whole night." they played a few rounds, Wooseok winning every time. The last game they played, Wooseok lost on purpose. Yuto smiled widely, poking his chest.

"Ha! I finally beat you~!" Wooseok smiled at him, finding the way he was acting adorable. Soon after another boy poked his head around the wall, a frown on his face.

"Yuto, we should go now." Yuto's smile fell, looking at the boy. He nodded, letting the boy go. Wooseok raised his brow, turning to him.

"Well, that's my cue to leave." Wooseok nodded, watching as he walked away. He swore he saw Yuto turning to look at him one last time, before disappearing. Hongseok ran to him, throwing his arm around him.

"Awe, is my baby sad because his little boyfriend left?" Wooseok glared at him, shaking his head.

"He's not my boyfriend." he said. Hongseok laughed, poking his side.

"But you want him to be." He left him behind, going to find another game to play. Hyojong was smiling at a screen, not paying attention to the game. Wooseok ran to him, scaring him. Hyojong jumped, shoving Wooseok.

"Shit, you scared me!" wooseok smiled. He sat next to him, putting his chin in his hand. "What?"

"Who were you laughing and playing with?" Hyojong blushed slightly, rolling his eyes. He shoved him, trying to walk away. "Why won't you tell me?" Hyojong flipped him off, walking out the door. Wooseok smiled, looking back at the basketball game him and Yuto were playing. Hongseok sat next to him, leaning on his elbows.

"What's his name?" Wooseok turned, furrowing his brows.

"Who's?" Hongseok smiled, shaking his head.

"The one you were playing with." Wooseok smiled slightly, looking down and playing with the rings on his fingers.

"Yuto." he said. Hongseok chuckled, looking at him.

"You like him?" Wooseok shook his head.

"No. he's not really my type." Hongseok scoffed, giving him a look.

"Oh, so you just let him win at one of your favorite games, because he's not your type?" Wooseok rolled his eyes, watching as a couple walked in together. "He seems your type. All dark and brooding." Wooseok laughed, using his hand to hide it.

"Dark and brooding?" Hongseok nodded.

"He looks nice." Wooseok nodded, his mind filling with him.

"Yeah. he's on the baseball team so I think it comes naturally to him." Hongseok smiled, poking his shoulder.

"Awe, you are all grown up. I'm going to cry." Wooseok laughed, shoving him. They both stood up, getting ready to go look for Hyojong. He couldn't ignore the nagging voice he had in his head about the way his friend looked at him. It was like he purposely took Yuto away. And Wooseok didn't know if he hated that or if he was thankful for it.
