Minjun sat next to Seonghwa, playing with his lighter, his eyes glued to the monitors where Will, Yeonjun, Yeosang, and Jongho were playing. "You've never played before?" Seonghwa asked, Minjun looking at him. "No, I barely got out of hell," Minjun said, making Seonghwa snort. "Have Wilson teach you, he seems like a pro," Seonghwa said, looking at Wilson's concentrated face as his avatar hid behind a wall.
"I'm not a pro but thank you for thinking so, and Hyung I can teach you," Wilson said, Seonghwa and Minjun looking at each other. How did he hear them whispering? "What?" Yeosang asked, not hearing a single sentence before what Will said. One minute they were trying to kill each other and the next they were playing video games on the same team pretending to be neighbors in front of Yeonjun. Well they were neighbors but.
"Last one," Yeonjun said, bringing their attention back to the game. Yeosang and Jongho covered him while Will stood guard. With one last shot, they won the game, Wilson turning around in his seat to look at Seonghwa and Minjun while Yeonjun, Yeosang, and Jongho cheered. "And you're telling me he doesn't like you?" Seonghwa asked, extra quietly. "His attention was on you the whole entire time," Seonghwa said, Minjun looking at him.
"He was trying to impress you with his gaming skills too," Seonghwa said, Wilson sharing his tips with Yeosang, Yeonjun, and Jongho who showed him a better way at times. "Seonghwa leave it be okay? We're just friends, unlike you and Hongjoong over there," Minjun said, Seonghwa looking at him. "Jokes on you, we aren't even friends," Seonghwa said, Minjun frowning. Seonghwa laughed at Minjun's reaction, Hongjoong being fast asleep.
"One more round, then we'll head up and make lunch?" Yeonjun asked, looking at everyone to see if they agreed. "It's too soon for lunch," San said, making his way down holding Wooyoung's hand. They had only been playing for a little more than a half hour which was how long he and Wooyoung were making out. San asked himself why he didn't lock Wooyoung up in the room with him, Wooyoung blushing when he heard his thoughts. San can think about locking him up and he could think about a way to get his burning shoulder back and double it and pass it back to the person who gave it to him.
"I need a nap," Wooyoung said, Yeonjun looking at him. "Were you not taking a nap?" Yeosang asked, San and Wooyoung looking at each other. No. They were making out, and that made him even more sleepy. "Can Minjun play with you this round?" Seonghwa asked, catching everyone's attention and sparing Wooyoung and San from having to answer that question. Minjun looked at him with wide eyes, wondering why he was the one thrown under the bus.
"I was about to ask," Wilson said with a smile, Minjun looking at him. Wilson pat his thigh, inviting Minjun to sit down on his lap. Minjun looked at the free chair next to him, Wilson looking at it too. "It's easier for me to teach you the controls this way and help you get the hang of it," Wilson said, Minjun nodding. "That's how I taught Jongho too," Yeonjun said, Jongho laughing at the memory. "I was a lot younger," Jongho said, Yeonjun looking at him. "Does that mean I'm old now or did you grow up?" Yeonjun asked, more in a teasing way than a serious one.
"Will I ever be an adult in your eyes, hyung?" Jongho asked, everyone saying no at the same time, except San. "You're more grown up than all of us combined sometimes," San said, Wooyoung looking at him. "We never admit to that," Wooyoung said, San smiling since he knew.
Jongho smiled, getting up to hug San as a thank you. "It's a good way for beginners to learn," Jongho said, going back to what they were talking about and going back to his seat.
Wooyoung took San's hand, pulling him towards where Hongjoong lay fast asleep sitting on the edge. San poked Hongjoong's side, Hongjoong opening his eyes and turning around to look at whoever poked him. "Can Wooyoung sleep here?" San asked. Hongjoong got up, dragging himself over to the now free seat next to Seonghwa. Wooyoung poked San's arm lightly, San pouting. "You didn't have to wake him up," Wooyoung said, making San smile. San opened his arms for a hug, Wooyoung hugging him and closing his eyes. Too much stress, too many thoughts, too much going on? Sleep was always the answer.
