Summary: Jonghyun doesn't like to sleep in his room.
Notes: I used their real names, so for anyone who doesn't know: Jonghyun is Changjo, Chanhee is Chunji, Byunghun is L.Joe, Minsoo is C.A.P, Daniel is Niel and Changhyun is Ricky.
Six members make rooming assignments a quick and easy decision. Changhyun and Jonghyun are paired because they're the youngest. Byunghun and Chanhee pair up because they're the same age and Daniel and Minsoo end up in the same room solely because Daniel is the only one able to tolerate Minsoo's snoring. Minsoo looks slightly offended when this is brought up, but Changhyun rolls his eyes and says, "Can't argue when it's true, hyung."
But just because the decision is easy to make doesn't mean it's easy for everyone to accept. After all, practicality rarely works with adolescent boys. Jonghyun wishes he could listen when Minsoo lectures him every morning. "What if one of the managers found out?" Minsoo whispers as he leads Jonghyun back to his room. Jonghyun shrugs and crawls back into his bed, every time resisting the urge to point out the lingering looks Minsoo gives Changhyun who's always asleep in bed when they arrive.
"He could sleep through an earthquake," is the closest Jonghyun comes to doing so. The grin of his face must say exactly what his words don't, because Minsoo glares with just the tiniest bit of color on his face and leaves the room muttering.
Despite the routine chastising and humiliating walk back, Jonghyun never once even considers staying in his and Changhyun's room. The second the lights go out he shoves away his blankets and crawls out. Now and then he takes his pillow, though more as a protective measure should he run into anyone in the hall. Somehow it makes sense to half-asleep Jonghyun that a pillow is a sufficient means of hiding at three in the morning.
Changhyun doesn't stop him; he never does. Sometimes Jonghyun swears he hears Changhyun sigh or chuckle as the door creaks open, but it could be Jonghyun's imagination. He prefers to think that Minsoo is the only one who knows. His footsteps in the pitch-black hall are almost as loud as the pounding in his chest. He's not sure whether he's sweating so much because he's afraid or if he's excited. There's something thrilling about sneaking through their dorm every night even if, somewhere in the back of his consciousness, he's long accepted that everyone knows about it.
Byunghun isn't a heavy sleeper, unfortunately. As Jonghyun tip-toes through the door, the older boy groans and pulls his pillow over his head. Jonghyun gives a slight head-bow in spite of himself and quickly moves around Byunghun's bed. Chanhee is always asleep when Jonghyun arrives, which Jonghyun finds suspicious. Whenever he finds the older boy fast asleep, he wants nothing more than to beat him with the pillow he's sometimes carrying, but a pillow fight at three am is probably more than Byunghun can take.
The fact that Chanhee is fast asleep and lying just to the side, every time, makes Jonghyun even more suspicious. There is always just enough room for another small body to crawl in beside him. Jonghyun sits in that spot and watches Chanhee sleep, hating how they have to go through this awkward routine every night. He pouts and pokes Chanhee's cheek. Chanhee's lips move slightly as if saying something, so Jonghyun leans in closer, only to be grabbed around the waist and pulled downward. Chanhee's laugh is loud and obnoxious in Jonghyun's ear despite it being whispered and barely audible.
"You're so small," Chanhee mumbles with his eyes still firmly shut and arms firmly locked around Jonghyun's waist. Jonghyun frowns and struggles to pull the rest of himself into the bed, but the arms around his waist make for difficult maneuvering. At least he gets both feet into the bed. They were getting cold. "Minsoo-hyung will be here soon," Chanhee whispers again.
"I don't care," Jonghyun lies, still trying to get comfortable. "Could you let go?" He wiggles around in Chanhee's iron grip.
"No," he sighs. "Don't want to." His eyes are still closed, so Jonghyun makes a face and sticks his tongue out at the older boy. Chanhee grins sleepily and swings Jonghyun around, over him and onto the other side of the bed. Jonghyun winces and grunts. "I couldn't do that if I let go."
"That hurt, idiot," Jonghyun grumbles. Chanhee's eyes blink open, but Jonghyun can't really see their expression in the dark.
"Sorry."
Jonghyun wriggles again, looking away. "It's fine," he says though his ribs are sore and he's still uncomfortable. He can just barely make out Chanhee smiling in the dark, then his eyes close again. The grip on Jonghyun's waist loosens slightly and he's finally able to crawl in. When he's settled, he looks up to find Chanhee quiet and still as if asleep. The sleeping Chanhee is a lot like awake Chanhee, except the complete stillness makes his little features surreal. Jonghyun's always thought Chanhee looked like one of those angel dolls grandmothers collect and display in dusty cabinets. Angels with feathery wings and small smiles and closed eyes. Their eyes are closed and their mouths are always open because these angels sing. This is what Jonghyun finds himself thinking at three in the morning, squished into Chanhee's bed and exhausted. He touches Chanhee's messy hair and tries to imagine what he would look like in a cabinet dressed all in white.
Chanhee's eyes open at some point during this and watch Jonghyun touch his hair, then his face. At some point he pulls Jonghyun closer and kisses him, beaming sleepily in Chanhee's arms. Jonghyun's too tired to kiss back, but he enjoys the warm feeling on his lips and the soft feeling of Chanhee's hair on his fingers. He thinks to himself that this is the only way to fall asleep and he begins to plan out the next night's excursion in his mind as his eyes drift closed.
By the time Minsoo shows up in the doorway, the two are always fast asleep, Jonghyun curled against Chanhee's chest and Chanhee breathing into the top of Jonghyun's head.
