[1] [2] [ 3] [ 4]



Fortunately enough for you, the side effects of drinking too much alcohol have never seemed to affect you. Maybe a pair of bloodshot eyes or the bad underneath are more pronounced, but for the most part, you’re left scot-free of the more sever and annoying side effects of a hangover.

Doesn’t mean you’re feeling any more stellar, waking up to find your apartment silently empty, your roommate oddly missing as well.

You roll over to stare up at the ceiling, contemplating how to best salvage what happened last night and if changing your name and moving to another country would be too extreme, maybe just the next province then.

The ticking of the wall clock is the only thing keeping time in the room. After 33 ticks, you hear a loud knock coming from your front door. The clock tells you it’s only 8:32 AM.

God, who’d be calling at 8:30 on a Saturday morning?

~*~
“Yoochun! I hope you’re not now just getting home!”

The face that greets you when you yank open the door is decidedly not Yoochun’s and you let out an embarrassing yelp before slamming the door shut.

A knock comes again and you realize you’re going to have to eventually face him.

Was just hoping it would be after a fresh shower and maybe 5 years later.

“Ummm…how awkward would it be if you gave me ten minutes to shower?”

“You mean with me continuing to stand out here?” Came the amused, if slightly muffled voice, from the other side of the door.

“Yes?” You know how stupid you sound and that hesitant reply wasn’t helping your case, but screw it you’re embarrassed and at least this is giving you some extra time to quickly smooth down your hair and will the red from your face.

“About as awkward as asking me to shower with you.”

Would you?

You gasp and slap yourself mentally.

Yep, no, the red is definitely there to stay.

“Let me in?" There was a slightly whining lilt that comes out adorably cute from him. "I’ll sit patiently on your couch while you pretty up.” And of course it's instantly killed by the snark.

You open the door to Changmin leaning casually against the frame of the door; looking perfect in his pair of dark wash jeans and crisp, white button down shirt. Wrinkling his shirt a little as you grab him by the collar, serves you right you snarky early-riser of a dongsaeng, you drag him to the couch, practically throwing him down on it.

“Stay! Good puppy. And I don’t need prettying up.” You punch his arm for good measure.

As you close the door to your room, you throw out an “I’m already fabulous, asshole!”

Hearing him burst out laughing, you think that maybe it would be worth the embarrassment to hear him laugh like that again.

~*~

“Okay, so, not that I mind a free breakfast, but why?”

You’re seated across from Changmin at a cozy little café, his suggestion again.

“The coffee isn’t that great, but the pastries are to die for.”

Changmin obviously has a sweet tooth. And the six different bakery items sitting in front of you both is proof enough of that.

“And I…wanted to make up for the way I was treating you last night.” He looks down at the table before shyly nudging over a small plate. “Here, their cheesecake is divine.”

“Divine? Really Changmin? Who describes…wait, I take that back.”

He blushes and goes to take back the plate before you slap his hand away and slice off a piece with your fork. You give a little sound of delight at the way the cheesecake practically melts on your tongue, the taste a wonderful combination in your mouth. Changmin smirks from across the table at you, and you duck a little behind your hand.

Coughing a little to clear your embarrassment, you continue, a little hesitantly. “I think I should be the one to apologize though. You had to take me home. I’ve heard that I can be a very…unbearable drunk sometimes.”

“If by unbearable, you mean incredibly touchy and highly uncoordinated, then yes.”

You have the decency to blush at that, but Changmin’s smile is enough to tell you he wasn't seriously put-off by your antics.

~*~

“Wait, why were you out and about at 8 in the morning anyway? I’d assume you’d have taken advantage of the weekend and slept in.”

Changmin coughs and looks away. “Your roommate.”

“Chunnie?”

“He decided to spend the night…over at my place.”

“But why would he be over at your place?" You can feel your mood drop and a scowl appears on your face. Damn him, he knows I like him! How dare -

“I do have a roommate too you know.”

That breaks you from your thoughts. Oh… You brighten again.

Changmin chuckles at your expressions. “I forgot how easy it was to read your thoughts.”

You blush before remembering something. “Wait! Yoochun and Junsu!? I didn’t think he’d even go that far on a…that wasn’t even a first date!!! Wait! You were there when they-”

Changmin laughs from across the table, popping in the last of the donut holes. You quickly snag the last of the cookies before he swipes those too.

“They weren’t sleeping together, if that was what you’re implying. “

“What? No, I mean, of course, right.” If you weren't red before you were definitely bright red now.

Changmin gives you a knowing look before continuing. “Yoochun just decided to follow Junsu home like a love-sick puppy and crashed on our couch. I only found out when I returned home to loud snoring.”

“Ah…I hope he wasn’t too…he’s fairly unbearable too when he’s drunk.”

“He has mood swings,” Changmin replies, deadpan.

You snort. “That’s putting it lightly.”

“He was affectionate though for the most part…and this morning…was getting particularly affectionate with Junsu…so I decided it was best to seek refuge with you.”

“I see, a roommate for a roommate,” you reply a little hesitantly, unsure if you should be reading more into this or not.

“I think I got the better end of the deal though.” And the wink Changmin gives you does not send fluttery feelings through you. No, not at all.

~*~
“I can’t believe she called me fat!”

“Saying you have moobs is hardly calling you fat. But you do have to admit, she has better abs than you do.”

“Who’s best friend are you!?”

You hear a chirp come from your phone and turn the call to speaker, checking the text that just came in.

YoonA to Princess Jae (5:35 PM): Is Yunnie-oppa complaining to you about my moob comment???

“Is that my girlfriend? Can you tell her to go get her own best friend!?”

Jae to Yoong (5:36 PM): Why am *I* Princess Jae in your phone again? Can you not hear the princess I’m talking to right now!?

“Where is there a rule that states you can’t be best friends to multiple people?”

YoonA to Princess Jae (5:37 PM): Sadly yes. He’s in the bathroom.

“Best friend whore!”

“I can’t believe you’re calling to complain to me about a tiff you had with your girlfriend from your bathroom!!!”

Jae to Yoong (5:37: PM): Are you *sure* you two didn’t switch genders?

YoonA to Princess Jae (5:38 PM): Last I checked, yes. But then again, I think he’s having hormone imbalances.

“I’m not talking to you two anymore!”

“Oh my god Yunho! Man up! Go work out or something if you’re so concerned about being called fat!”

You rub your head. You were supposed to be spending your afternoon finishing up that term paper followed by a de-stressing trip to the supermarket for groceries.

“Yunnie-oppa! Please come out of there. Let’s go to dinner! Just the two of us! I’ll make it up to you. I'll treat you to sashimi! I’m sorry.”

“Just go, Ho, I hear her through your phone and I know you don’t want to stay mad at her. Now let me get back to my paper!”

YoonA to Princess Jae (5:45 PM): Thank you oppa! <3

You roll your eyes. You could never stay mad at either of them. They’re just too cute.

Jae to Yoong (5:45 PM): I better get compensated for listening to your girlfriend bitch to me about you.

YoonA to Princess Jae (5:50 PM): On the way!!!! Don't forget to make dinner!

You stare confusedly at the text.

Weren’t they heading out to dinner together, just the two of them? Why would they come here?

Shrugging, you decide that if they do arrive in the next half hour, that you’d better have your paper finished or at least in the final drafts.
