"chanhee stop being anti-social, get off your phone."

"shit." chanhee curses, just barely grasping his phone before it fell on the floor. tilting the screen away from his friends skilfully, he logs off the chat. changmin can wait.

"choi chanhee!" "sorry-" "fuck!" "LEE SANGYEON, DO YOU WANT TO DIE?"

"calm down everyone, clean up the mess first then you can finish up world war three." younghoon sighs, inching away from the puddle of water on the floor. he doesn't say anything but his eyes say it all: 'i'm friends with a bunch of idiots and i want to go home now.'

since nobody is paying attention to younghoon, chanhee decides to do it himself.

"you're an idiot too though."

"run, chanhee!"

"rest in peace cutie i promise i'll play twice at your funeral."
