santana's point of view

My eyes flutter open to see Hyungwon staring at me. I shove his face away from mine and let out a small yawn.

Hyungwon: The food is done.

I open my arms.

Me: Carry me.
Hyungwon: Right idea, wrong boyfriend. I will drop you.
Me: You fucked me against a wall before, no you won't.

His cheeks turn a light shade of pink.

I wrap my arms around his neck and legs around his waist and he chuckles. I kiss his cheek as he starts his journey downstairs.

Hyungwon: You're such a baby.
Me: But I'm your baby.
Hyungwon: Kihyun's cheesiness is rubbing off on you.

He lets me down once we step off the last stair. It smells amazing downstairs, my stomach begins to growl.

Hyungwon: Come on.

He grabs my hand and we go into the dining room. Minhyuk sets the last table smiling with satisfaction.

Minhyuk: I set the table beautifully, I think I deserve a kiss Santana.
Hyungwon: She's my girlfriend right now, go kiss Wonho.

Wonho raises an eyebrow as he walks in.

Wonho: Who's kissing Wonho?
Me: Minhyukie.
Minhyuk: Hyungwon won't share.
Wonho: Share what?
Minhyuk: Santana.

"Who's sharing Santana?"

Changkyun wraps a protective arm around my waist and I smile.

Minhyuk: Hyungwon said she's his girlfriend for the day.

That started an uproar I did not want to be apart of so I sneak off to see what the only sane member of Monsta-x is doing. Shownu whistles to himself as he flips the steaks on the grill.

I wrap my arms around him and he grins.

Shownu: How was your nap?
Me: It was really good.
Shownu: How's your head?

Everyday he asks me how's my head because apparently it bounced off the concrete pretty hard when I got struck.

Me: It's fine.
Shownu: The doctor said to keep a close eye on it, Changkyun's injury too.

The concern in his voice is always comforting. Knowing I have seven of these dorks that care about me is comforting, everyone should have someone like that.

Me: Taeyun had an idea.

Shownu rolls his eyes.

Me: It's a good one. We set Lee up on a date.
Shownu: A date? Does he want to date?

I shrug.

Me: I just feel so bad for him.
Shownu: You weren't in control of your feelings. You weren't sure who was right and who was wrong for you.
Me: Still I just can't leave him all blah like that.
Shownu: Is this Santana the counselor speaking?

I can't deny the fact it is.

Lee ignores my request after I practically tackled him to the ground so he could listen.

Me: Why not?
Lee: Because I don't want a girlfriend.
Me: She doesn't have to be a girlfriend she could be a buddy, it's only one date.
Lee: A date I don't need.

He stops walking and so do I.

Me: When's the last time you had sex?

His eyes widen.

Lee: When's the last time you had sex?
Me: Fifteen minutes ago in the shower with Jooheon.
Lee: Oh Santana, how I missed your bluntness.
Me: In college I was a good match maker. My friend Yeosang was basically an anti-cupid until I set him up.
Lee: Is he still with her?
Me: I can't say because that story is barely written.

Lee sighs.

Me: Let's go clubbing tonight and I can play wing-man, or wing-woman.

I pause.

Me: Wing-person, whatever!

He laughs before shaking his head.

It's been a while since I've been in a club. I feel so out of place but I'm here on a mission. Kihyun tugs on my dress and I slap his hand away.

Kihyun: I still don't understand why I was picked as the babysitter.
Me: Me either, I don't need a babysitter.

The boys didn't want to come but they sure as hell didn't want me, Taeyun and Lee going alone.

So they sent Kihyun.

Kihyun: Do you really think the club is the most appropriate place to find him a future girlfriend?
Me: Absolutely not but it's the most free-spirited place to do so.

I try to think about Lee's type and who would be best for him. He's a pretty chilled guy so someone who's also chill with a dash of silly would work well.

He doesn't care too much about the physical attributions just that she's nice.

My eyes linger around until they fall on a familiar face.

What the hell?

play it cool or who do you love?
