Jonghyun rolled out of bed, Sayu had fallen asleep and he heard Onew and Minho get home. At least now he was satisfied nothing was wrong and he could go find out what the hell they went off to do. He felt something sticking to his back and had to maneuver awkwardly to knock it off. It was the card. He picked it up after stepping on it a few times for good measure.
Joon came to see Sayu while they were out, which was stupid. He could have just called and met them out in Seoul, and more importantly he was Onew’s friend, not his, what the hell was he doing giving him a card of all things. Jonghyun set it on the nightstand and pulled his pants on. He was buttoning when he stopped and read the card. It was indeed a congratulations you’re bonded kind of card, but it had a message.
Something like, don’t get too bonded because she’s probably going to die soon. For your information. What. The. Fuck. Jonghyun looked down at Sayu and she moved, but she was just curling up in her cocoon of blankets. He waited until she was still before he left, grabbing his shirt on the way out. He was pulling the shirt over his head with the card in his mouth when he exited the hallway out into the rest of the house.
Minho sat on the couch in the living room, starting up a movie, and Onew was making ramen noodles in the open bar kitchen. For a quick find on a house, they picked a good one. Jonghyun turned the corner into the kitchen and marched towards Onew, holding out the card. “Okay jackass, explain why Joon of all people would be sending me this.”
Onew read the card quickly and grinned, “What are you worried now?” Jonghyun glared at him until he continued, “If it’s Joon he’s probably looking out for Sayu because he owes her something. Did you have fun while we were gone?”
“Yeah we fucked, so this wouldn’t have anything to do with Jessica claiming to mastermind this whole bonding thing, would it?”
“I wish Minho was that easy to get into bed.”
Jonghyun shot back, “It’s easy because it’s not Minho. Answer the question.”
Onew shrugged and took the noodles off the stove, turning it off and then pouring them into a bowl he had prepared. Minho apparently liked ramen noodles and Onew was more than happy to make them for him whenever he wanted. Anything to jog a memory. He hummed and Jonghyun was turning to leave when he finally said, “I think you should ask your ace reporter if Jessica was one of her contacts.”
Jonghyun had rounded the corner back into the hall by then and he heard Minho call out some movie title to him, but he flung open their bedroom door and slammed it shut. “Huh Jonghyun I’m sleeping.”
“No, you’re not, wake the fuck up.” He stepped next to the bed and shoved her shoulder. She was facing him but then clenched her eyes shut and turned away from him, grunting in protest. Fuck this. He stepped on the bed and walked across it and jumped down on the other side. Jonghyun crouched down in front her and was face to face with her. “You have to answer a question or I’m going to move the bed to the roof.” And he could do it, too.
