Jungwoo jolted awake and looked around the empty room. His eyebrows scrunched up when he saw that it was dark outside. What time is it?

The confusion only grew when he realized he was wearing a sweatshirt that he had never seen before. A loud thud somewhere in the house made him jump. Not wanting to get murdered, he hopped off the bed and ran to go find Johnny.

If it came down to it, Johnny was the only person who could actually protect Jungwoo from a murderer.

He tiptoed through the hallway and peeked his head around the corner to look in the living room. Everybody was sitting there laughing...while there was a murderer in the house.

"Johnny protect me!" He yelled and he jumped onto the mans lap.

"Jesus Christ! Where did you come from?" The was a look of sheer horror on Ten's face as he held his hand over his heart.

Ignoring Ten, Johnny turned to the boy who was now in his lap, "What am I protecting you from?"

Jungwoo rolled his eyes, "The murderer obviously!"

"Jungwoo, sweetie, there's no murderer here." Johnny replied softly.

"Then what was that noise!"

"Yuta's dumb ass made me drop my fucking book." Sicheng spat as he glared at his boyfriend.

An embarrassed laugh came out of Jungwoo as he crawled over to Ten, "What time is it, who's sweatshirt is this, and when did I fall asleep?"

"Um It's almost midnight, I believe that's Lucas's sweatshirt, and you were asleep when we got back." Ten responded as he wrapped his arms around Jungwoo.

A confused expression once again rose to Jungwoo's face. "When did you give me this?" He asked, turning to Lucas.

"You fell asleep a little after the Mark incident, then woke up like an hour later because you were cold." Lucas said, a soft smile resting on his lips.

"What Mark incident?" Jaehyun questioned.

A noticeable blush formed on Mark's cheek as he shrugged, "um ion know what he's talking about..."

Johnny leaned forward, resting his chin on his palm, "No, what Mark incident?"

"He was saying weird things to Haechan On the phone." Jungwoo mumbled, causing both Ten and Sicheng to gasp.

Their laughs echoed through the room as Mark's face turned a deeper shade of red.

"Seongie I'm hungry..." Jungwoo whined, getting up off the couch and waddling over to Seonghwa.

He smiled at the boy in front of him, "Let's go get you something to eat then."

✨✨✨

"So...what did you and Lucas do while we were gone?" Sicheng asked as him and Ten walked into the kitchen.

"We looked at the garden...it's so pretty! We spent most of the day in the green house, then apparently I fell asleep."

There was a bored expression on Ten's face as he sat down next to Jungwoo, "That's it? Y'all didn't fuck or anything?"

A loud gasp came out of Seonghwa as he held the counter to keep his balance, "I hope they didn't!"

Rolling his eyes, Sicheng joined his two best friends at the table, "Does Lucas like plants too?"

"Wow...I guess I never really asked. I just got excited." There was a sheepish smile resting on Jungwoo's face as he spoke.

"Do you like him?"

Jungwoo shot Sicheng an annoyed glare. He just met Lucas, yet everybody expected him to be head over heels. Lucas is...attractive but that doesn't mean he's perfect for Jungwoo. "I like Lucas as a friend, he's nice, caring, and most importantly he doesn't question everything I do."

Ten's face scrunched up, "It's because we care about you! We need to make sure you like the right boy!"

"Who does Jungwoo like?" Johnny questioned as he walked into the kitchen.

Right behind Johnny, mark walked in next, placing his hand on his hip, "Jungwoo likes somebody?"

"Oh my god, who?" Jaehyun asked as leaned into Mark.

"Why'd everybody leave me?" Lucas asked as he followed the herd into the kitchen.

Jungwoo let out a dramatic sigh, "Everybody needs to back the fuck up!" There was a series of gasps heard throughout the room. "Oh stop acting like I'm a baby! I'm a grown man, I can curse and have crushes! Now if you'll excuse me I have to go back to sleep." An awkward silence filled the room as Jungwoo finished his juice box before storming out of the kitchen.

"Jungwoo? You okay?" Lucas called out as he slowly opened the door to their shared room.

"Yes. I'm fine, just annoyed."

A small chuckle slipped past Lucas's lips when he saw the boy angrily cuddling a stuffed animal on the bed. "You're sure you're fine?"

Rolling his eyes, Jungwoo flipped onto his stomach so he wasn't facing Lucas. "Not you too! I don't need to be babied!"

"Ok fine I'm going to sleep then. Goodnight but don't wake me up if you're cold this time." Lucas stated as he climbed onto the bed, turning the light off.

"Wait—"

"Shh I'm sleeping."

"But you're—"

"Sleeping"

"You're taking to me though"

"I'm probably just taking in my sleep then"

"Oh ok."

"Wait—Lucas wake the hell up!" Jungwoo yelled as he threw his stuffed animal at the sleeping man.

A loud groan came out of Lucas as he sat up, "I don't know what I did wrong? I wasn't babying you."

"I take it back, you can baby me. But only you." Jungwoo could feel the pout forming on his face as Lucas only gave him a blank stare. Did he actually make Lucas mad? "I'm sorry!"

He still got no response. "What do you want from me?" Jungwoo questioned as he leaned closer to him.

"Mmm i want to sleep."

The pout on his face only grew at those words, "Don't be mad at me..."

Another laugh came out of Lucas as he placed his hands on either side of Jungwoo's face, squishing his cheeks, "I'm not mad, I was messing around!"

"You're mean." Jungwoo mumbled as he pushed the others hands off of his face.

"If you stop pouting we can cuddle...you told me the first night here that you're a sleep cuddler."

Jungwoo's face lit up when he heard that. His pout was quickly replaced by a smile as he wiggled his way into Lucas's arms. "Ok goodnight Lucas!"

"Goodnight Jungwoo," Lucas said quietly as he ran a hand through Jungwoo's soft hair.
