Summary: It was a rare opportunity for them to be together without supervision and they were going to get drunk. It IS their 6th Anniversary anyway.
All 5 of them were in the same room, breathing the same air. They were staring at each other, trying to figure out what the other was thinking. It was like a game and if anyone spoke, it would be the end.
As usual, with a Scrabble board in the center and Changmin leading. The match had Jaejoong and Yunho in the same team since neither of them were good at it whilst Junsu had a dictionary with him since all the members pitied him; Yoochun was having fun teasing Junsu and could not be bothered with the game at all.
“Changmin! Give us a chance, please!” Yunho begged.
“Call me hyung~” He not-so-humbly replied.
“Forget it,” Jaejoong stood up from his spot next to Yunho, “I’m going to check some fan sites.”
“This game is stupid, can we not?” Seeing as how Jaejoong was leaving, Yunho needed to find an excuse to leave the game.
Everyone, except Changmin, nodded in agreement.
It was rare to find a chance like this. For all of them to be together without anyone observing them or restricting their movements or speech and they were appreciating every single second of it.
Instead of using it in the comfort of his black room, Jaejoong brought his laptop to the living room. Yunho, as usual, snuggled together with him. Yoochun and Junsu were playing hand games with each other on the couch, instead of hiding in the room. Changmin, instead of looking through his script on the balcony, was now doing it on the couch, occasionally laughing at Junsu’s loss.
It felt different tonight, maybe because it was going to be the end of Christmas soon but it was not and all of them knew why.
“Look at this!” Jaejoong pointed to his computer screen enthusiastically.
Yunho groggily lifted his head up from Jaejoong’s lap and planned to take a quick look at it before going back to his comfort zone that he missed so much. However, he was smiling from ear to ear and couldn’t stop looking.
On it wrote the words, “Happy 6th Anniversary DBSK!! Oppas hwaiting~”, accompanied with a collage of all the photos of the members smiling together.
“Chunnie! Why are you crying?!” Junsu exclaimed before a tear or two sneaked out of his eyelids.
This was typical of them and Changmin just laughed it off, remarking on how free the fans were and how they should have spent it on studying or doing some voluntary work.
The clock striked 12 midnight and it was officially the 26th of December.
Yoochun, being the alcoholic he is, grabbed some champagne he bought from the airport and very merrily, poured the contents out into 5 glasses.
“Drink up!”
And the 5 of them, crowd around the laptop, drinking themselves drunk while smiling at fan messages. These warm, thankful feelings replaced those hard, cold, scary feelings that were trapped inside for months.
Suddenly, everything they did was worthwhile.
“We’ll get through this, right?” Yunho asked, afraid once again.
“Yes we will, darling.” Jaejoong assured Yunho while patting his head. “Everything will be just fine.”
Yoochun started crying once more, but this time, it was tears of joy because he was with his 4 favourite people and although there was no way he could say this to all his lovers, but he knew they knew.
Junsu stopped drinking after a few sips, complaining about how bitter it was and replaced it with some strawberry milk but all the same, tearing.
And just like that, they were all drunk (except for our dear dolphin Junsu) and laid on the floor, laughing and muttering words they could never say.
“These 6 years of pain, ah….”
“I love you Junsu~~~~~”
“I hate to admit it but the fans are so precious, I want to give them a hug~~”
“Let’s go! 10 years!”
And of course, the infamous eukyangkyang was heard all the time since this time, he was not being mocked… or at least, he thought so.
“Junsu, read more please.” Changmin mumbled.
Tomorrow, they were going to be separated once more and whether they liked it or not, they were going to face reality once more. Whether they wanted it or not, they were, and still were, going to be apart from one another and all of them, were afraid, afraid of being apart, forever; afraid of not being on one stage ever again.
Yet, despite all that, all of them believed.
“We’re stuck with each other now.”
