"Wooyoung, can we talk now?" San asks him as he catches up to him.

"I don't think this is the time." Wooyoung keeps walking but San reaches for his arm and turns him around.

"Wooyoung..."

"Okay then." He nods. "Let's talk."

They walk away from the rest of the boys and go sit down on a bench.

"Look San, I-"

"Please give me another chance. I promise I won't take it for granted."

"San... I have to be honest with you."

"What?" He asks confused. "About what?"

"The truth is... I like someone else." He sighs. "Before I met you, I already suspected I had feelings for him but didn't want to admit it since we're so close. I didn't want to ruin things between us. But as time has gone by, I've realized I have feelings for him. It wouldn't be fair for you if I took you back even though I know I don't have feelings for you anymore."

"Who is it?"

"I-"

"Is it someone from our group of friends? Someone we know?"

"I can't say." Wooyoung stands up. "We should go." He walks over to where everyone else is.

San has been paying close attention to Wooyoung and who he's hanging out with on this trip. He has to know who he likes. He knows cheating on Wooyoung was wrong, but Wooyoung didn't even feel anything for him when they were together? I don't think anyone deserves to be in a relationship like that either.

"Jongho, put me down!" Wooyoung laughs as Jongho throws him over his shoulder.

"Pass him to me!" Hongjoong puts his hands up and Jongho pretends he's going to throw Wooyoung to the other side of the room.

"Hey! You guys, help me!" He looks around and Yunho ends up taking him away from Jongho.

"You guys are no fun." Jongho pouts.

'Who could it be?' San thinks to himself and looks around.

"Hey guys, why don't we go get some drinks?" Mingi asks them.

"That's a good idea." Jongho agrees. "We'll go get them."

"Wooyoung, stop drinking." Seonghwa laughs.

"Shh." Wooyoung puts his finger on Seonghwa's lips. Yeosang immediately takes Wooyoung's finger off of Seonghwa's lips and pulls Seonghwa closer to him.

"I think we should take him to his room." Seonghwa stands up.

"No! I don't want to go to my room." Wooyoung shakes his head.

"Okay fine." Seonghwa sits back down.

"We should play truth or dare." Jongho suggests.

"That never ends well." Yunho tells him.

"Oh come on, party pooper. It could be fun. Who's playing?"

"I'm in!" Wooyoung tells him.

"Okay, fine. Let's play." Yunho nods.

"Hongjoong, truth or dare?" Yeosang asks him.

"Truth."

"Is there someone in this room you like?" He raises an eyebrow.

Hongjoong hesitates but ends up answering. "Yes." He nods, trying not to look at Jongho and make it obvious.

"Ooo..." Everyone says, already knowing who he's talking about.

"Mingi, truth or dare?"

"Dare." Mingi replies.

"I dare you to keep your hands away from Yunho for the rest of the night."

"Seriously?" He frowns. "That'll be too hard."

Wooyoung just rolls his eyes and takes another sip from his drink. Why did Yunho take him back after what he did?

"Wooyoung, truth or dare?" Mingi asks him.

"Dare." Wooyoung says since the drinks made him feel a little more brave than usual.

"I dare you to kiss San."

'Is he being serious?' Wooyoung can't believe he really just had the audacity to dare him to do that. They literally broke up because of him and now he does this?

"Mingi, I think you're going too far." Yunho whispers.

"Oh come on. Wooyoung clearly still likes him. They should just get back together already. It'll happen eventually anyway."

"I'll pass." Wooyoung shakes his head.

"Okay, fine. I'll change the dare." Mingi tells him. "I dare you to dare the hottest guy in the room to kiss you."

Wooyoung would've never done this when he was sober... but alcohol really does make him brave.

"Okay." He agrees and stands up before stopping in front of someone. "I dare you to kiss me... Yunho."
