Why a Saturday?
More than just a gameBaekhyun was sleeping soundly, all his worries were out the door. It was currently a Friday night and it was 10pm. Usually Baekhyun stays up longer but this week drained him, and he hasn't even started volleyball practice yet. Before he could drift off to a beautiful oasis, his phone suddenly goes off.
It doesn't ring but beeps.
Messages? from who at this hour
Baekhyun doesn't bother to check because he assumes it's just one message. God was he wrong, the beeping wouldn't stop. He checks who this person is and to his dismay it wasn't a person but multiple, he was in a group chat.

It was morning and the bright sunlight was piercing through Baekhyun's window almost blinding him. He looked over to his alarm to see the time and it was 9:15. Not bad he thought to himself he has time to get ready. After brushing his teeth, washing his face, and making his hair has decent as possible, he gets up and dresses in to his practice attire.
He checks to see if he received any messages from Jongdae but nothing.
"I guess that means I have time for breakfast", he mumbles to himself
He walks out his room to the kitchen to see if his mom prepare anything for him. Instead he sees his older brother in the kitchen. "Well look who is up so early", Baekbeom said while frying some eggs on the stove. His brother was already in college but he came to visit him and his mom when he had free time.
"I'm up early because I have practice.....in 35 minutes" he said while looking at his phone to check the time.
"Wait" his brother looked at him confused. "Practice on a Saturday?"
"Ya I know, why a Saturday?"
"Hm your coach must have his reasons"
"Reasons my , I haven't even met the dude yet"
"Really? I'm pretty sure he is a cool guy" Baekbeom was done frying the eggs and he put it on a plate. He then grabbed the toasted bread out of the toaster placed tit on the plate as well. "Orange juice? or Water?" he asked
"Orange juice please" Baekhyun then noticed he received a text from Jongdae. "Ahh it seems Dae is here"
Baekbeom walked over placed the the plate on the table along with the orange juice. "Could you at least eat some of it before you go."
Baekhyun sighs, "sure"
Baekbeom had a pleased smile on his face. He always cared for his little brother especially when their father wasn't around. Whenever Baekhyun wanted to go out to do things like the amusement park or the arcade, he would be the one to take him. If he was hungry and mom was at work then he would cook for him. When he came home crying during hard times he was there to comfort him especially his last game in middle school.
Their mom would be there for the both of them when they needed it but she worked two jobs so she is always tired. Their father was always a no show, the guy was a business man so he was always gone and never checked up on the family.
"Baekhyun lets go." Jongdae shouted once he walked in through the front door.
"Sup Jongdae" Baekbeom said as he went up and gave him a quick hug.
"Hey Baekbeom hows the college life"
"its okay but definitely not easy"
"Sure" Baekhyun said sarcastically, "nothing you can't handle academics were never a problem for you"
"Right!" "I remember he use to get full credit for every test. Sometimes he didn't even study and still would get 100%" , Jongdae said.
Baekbeom sheepishly smiled at the two because their not wrong.
"Anyways lets go Baek my mom has been waiting outside for a while"
"Okay.. see you later Baekbeom." Baekhyun waved off to his brother before leaving through front door with Jongdae.
Baekbeom was cleaning the table until his phone started ringing. He looked at the caller id and just sighed. He was unsure if he should answer it or not, but plain curiosity got the best of him.
"Hello......ya dad i'm doing fine what do you want"

Baekhyun and Jongdae showed up to school. In a few minutes practice was gonna start so they had to rush out the car to the gym. To their surprise they see Tao and Luhan waiting for them in the front.
"There you guys are, I hope this won't be habit from-"
"It won't" Jongdae interrupts "we just got caught up with Baekhyun's brother" he says sounding out of breath.
"Okay but lets hurry the coach hasn't arrived yet." Luhan said opening the gym doors for the boys.
They walked in and everyone was already spiking and setting with the volleyballs. Baekhyun looked around at his team noticed there was 12
