U.R.A.Q.T [WooHo]

Chapter 13

"So what are you dealing with, Wooseok?" He asked his cousin who was playing with the hem of his coat. Wooseok doesn't normally ask for help, he waits for it. But this was a far more different situation than what he have encountered for all his years of living. He was desperate, and the only one he can trust right now is Shinwon. The very reliable hyung that he never acknowledges, until now that is.

Speaking of trust, he actually doesn't fully trust him. Because first of all, Wooseok sort of hit it off with their boss. Second, Shinwon is an actual normal human being and Jinho's friend. Of course Wooseok can't say 'oh I fucked our boss and now feelings aren't so clear and shit', that's just wrong and would probably make Shinwon lose his mind. So, what is he suppose to say then?

"Hyung... Jin- uh, Mr. Jo and I-"

"Fucked?" Shinwon continued the sentence for Wooseok, the taller was shocked. So he knew? He feels embarrassed, yet it was quite ineffable with the expression that Shinwon was giving. Is Wooseok's imbroglio not that of a complicated one? Shinwon sighed, was it because of disapproval? "I knew something was up with you two."

"Hyung, I can explain." He said quickly, hands moving frantically. Wooseok was in distress at this point, anxiety rising up to the top. But what is this? Shinwon is smiling at him, but why? He is so confused, it feels like Shinwon was sending in mixed signals. Shinwon gently placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't bother explaining, it's probably heavy on your shoulders huh?"

Wait, Shinwon was acting surreptitious. Or maybe Wooseok is paranoid, as much as Shinwon is a really nice hyung. Wooseok's confusion had seeped out for Shinwon to notice, "Look, Wooseokkie. I've known Jinho for a long time, I know him so well that I know what happened after I've heard about you guys drinking-" He paused mid sentence.

"You guys did the thing." He finished with a blank expression, pretty much starring at Wooseok's soul if that was even possible. Wooseok was very much embarrassed, he covered his face with both hands, really not feeling it to look the other in the eyes.

Shinwon here, was actually amused. Why? Because he did a bet. With whom? The CFO.

"Are you sure they fucked?" Hui asked for the who knows how many times. Shinwon rolled his eyes. "Hey, I thought Jinho was your child or something?"

"Of course he is! He's my best friend." Hui crossed his arms at that, offended by the doubt Shinwon was showing about his and Jinho's relationship.

"Then you should know how Jinho is every time he drinks with someone!"

"I know how he acts, I've experienced it like- once."

"Oh?"

"Shut up." Shinwon did shut his mouth with a smug grin that Hui wants to slap. But he has class, so no. No slapping today. "And besides, I don't think Wooseok is his type you know?"

"So you're saying they didn't fuck?" Shinwon asked, an eyebrow raised.

"Yes, they didn't fuck because Jinho doesn't want any of Wooseok's shit."

"Harsh... wanna bet?" Shinwon offered. And there it is, the devil's infamous smirk appeared. Hui was quite taken aback but making a deal with the devil isn't the worst decision he have made so why not? "How much are we talking about? I'd say about 50."

"Make it 75."

"₩75,000?"

"Yep."

"Ok then, deal."

"You guys made a fucking bet with me and Jinho?" Wooseok feels a bit crummy about that. He didn't think Shinwon would be in on making bets, guess he ain't that of a goody two shoes after all.
