Hidden King

Chapter 13 Accident

Yunho

         Mingi and I wake up early, heading over to see how Jongho is doing, but Yeosang opens the door with hair in every direction. It's obvious he just woke up, and he sighs.

         "He's in the shower. He'll be out after... I think." Yeosang tells us, and we go to wait in the living area.

         "I guess he's doing better then." Mingi says, laughing.

         I smile and wait for the both of them with Mingi. While waiting we see everyone else coming out to sit with us, waking up slowly. HongJoong rests his head on SeongHwa and we hear as Jongho comes out, sitting next to Mingi.

         "Hey, you feeling better today?" I ask, looking at him and HongJoong.

         "Yeah, a good night's rest was what I needed." HongJoong says, and the look on SeongHwa's face says that he was mostly telling the truth.

         "Yeah, I slept like a baby last night." Jongho tells us and Mingi chuckles.

         "Well you are the baby of the group."

         "Be nice hun." I say, lightly hitting his shoulder. We play around and wait for Yeosang to come out. When he does he seems a bit frazzled, but it makes sense, none of us are really morning people.

:@:

SeongHwa

         We get food delivered and eat together, Yeosang talking to Wooyoung while San talks to Yunho and Mingi. Jongho lays on one of the couches while we all talk. I sigh while looking at HongJoong, he has been kinda quiet since they all went out.

         "Are you okay?" I ask and he just sighs, laying his head on my shoulder.

         "Not really, but I have to keep going for their sake. I can't just fall apart after something like that. I don't even know how we got into that situation, let alone how we made it out, and I was there." he says with a long exasperated sigh. I pet his head and look at him.

         "I can't even comprehend what it was like, but I am here for you." I say, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek, happy nobody notices. He smiles and giggles, which makes me happy.

         "Good thing I can count on you to be the one I can talk to Hwa." he says. I notice Mingi looking at San in shock, and tap Joongie, motioning him to watch them.

         I don't hear much, but I can see that San is looking a bit self conscious about the conversation. Yunho just seems confused from where we sit, and he stands up so he can look at San, who stands up, putting his hands up in front of him.

         "We should see what's going on." I say and Joongie nods. I notice that Yeosang and Wooyoung are oblivious, as usual, and we head over.

:@:

Mingi

         "Wait, you mean you and Wooyoung aren't together?" I ask and San seems confused. He just told Yunho and me that he really likes Wooyoung, but doesn't know what to do.

         "Why?" he asks and Yunho stands up, causing San to stand up. He puts his arms up innocently and Yunho sighs.

         "Wow, you're telling the truth." he sighs and we see SeongHwa hyung coming up to us, HongJoong close behind.

         "What's going on?" HongJoong asks.

         "San li..." I am cut off by Yunho.

         "It's nothing, I was just making sure San wasn't lying about how much he ate this morning." he says, and San laughs.

         "I told you I ate that much. It's not like I would lie about that." he says while he laughs. I look at him, shocked he can lie so easily. Yunho does it a lot to get me to stay quiet, but I've never seen San lie so easily before.

         I can tell that SeongHwa feels something is off, but HongJoong lets it go. When they go and sit back down Yunho looks to San.

         "I don't know what to do... I like him, but I'm no good for him." San tells us, and leaves, going to his room. SeongHwa looks at us and I just shrug to him, while Yunho mimes something about sleep to him.

         "Why are you covering for him? I thought we wanted them together..." I say and he shushes me.

         "We do, but I don't want them to feel like we are forcing anything, plus you know how self conscious San is." he tells me and I groan, knowing he's right. I just hope I can keep this a secret.

:@:

Yeosang

          "So, you woke up in his arms?" Wooyoungie asks me and I nod, sighing and blushing. He is shocked and yet he looks over to San, and leans closer to me.

          "I woke up in San's arms too," he whispers and I almost choke on my drink. He laughs and blushes, hiding his face in his hands.

         "Oh my god. Did anything else happen?"

         "He called me cute, but he was half asleep, so he was probably in his flirty mode." he says, seeming to still be happy from the encounter.

         I lean forward and feel something poke me in my pocket. I pull it out and realize it's the charm, so I put it on the table. Sighing I look up at Wooyoungie and he seems so happy, but I notice San walking to their room.

         "Okay, but I know you have been trying to get Jongho to get closer to you. How are you not freaking out that you slept in his arms?" he asks and I shrug. Inside I am a ball of anxiety, I am so happy, nervous, and excited, but I can't seem to show it.

         "Too many emotions to convey?" I say and he just laughs, hugging me and eventually he stands up. I laugh as he bounces around, happy for me, but I hear the sound of something shattering.
