Stray Kids 9th Member ~ Shine Pt.1

Hellevator Era Pt.2

Sammy sleepily rose from the bed and walked out the door into the living room. His hair every which way. He cuddled the nearest person which happened to be Changbin. Changbin wrapped an arm around him and continued watching whatever show on his phone. "How you feeling Hyung."

"Sleepy..." Sammy muttered. Changbin nodded and said, "Glad to see you home Hyung."

"Glad to be home. It smells like orange. Did you guys clean?"

"Minho and Seungmin scrubbed the dorm down like the plague had broke." Sammy smiled. "They cleaned even though they hate cleaning?"

"Minho has cats he has to clean them up." Sammy shrugged. He watched the show Changbin was watching so he wouldn't fall asleep again. Sammy's phone buzzed on the table and he went to pick it up but Minho practically dived at his phone and ran away. Sammy furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head. Minho came running back saying it was a call from Sammy's manager. He calls his manager back. "Hello?"

"Uh Youngjae-Hyung you called?"

"Ah yes! JYP wants me to inform you that since Stray Kids official debut will be happening in March he wanted to know if you'd be able to participate."

"I will."

"Are you sure? Maybe I should ask Chan-"

"No, I'm doing it."

"Ok.... I'll let him know... just please take care of yourself." Sammy hung up and placed a phone on the table and groaned. He got up and went to Chan's room and laid on the bed curling into the scent of his friend. "I'm not fragile like everyone thinks." He pouted. "After your hospitalization, everyone thinks you are." Chan mumbled from the other side of the room. He was working on music. As always. Sammy turned to face him. "Have you gotten any sleep."

"Three hours. I'll be fine." Sammy rolled his eyes and went to drag Chan to bed. "Come on, bed time for the leader."

"Sammy- you No! I have work-"

"Shhh. Work can wait." Sammy mumbled softly and pulled Chan to the bed. "Sleep."

"But-"

"No buts Christopher. Now go to sleep." Chan grumbled but Sammy was firm. Chan eventually falls asleep and Sammy goes to the kitchen to make food. Something simple and vaguely unique to his family. White rice made into cereal. As in milk, rice, sugar, and butter all mixed together. (Me, my dad, my sister, and my grandma all love it!) In doing said task he caught sight of a knife that was just laying in the open. He tsked and went to put it away. In it's rightful knife block he went back to the rice. (ya'll remember those things cause we have one.)

When the rice was finished he scooped bowls for all the boys. He called the boys for lunch and smiled. Felix was confused. "You made lunch?"

"Yeah. Oh and Chan is asleep. I can save his for later. I made cereal. A specialty in my family. Rice cereal." They all nodded and curiously ate. Changbin groaned, "This is goooooddd!"

"Hey, no talking with food in your mouth." Sammy scolded lightly. Changbin smiled apologetically. It seems life was going back to normal. A normal Sammy wanted to see again.
