They were set.

Sunggyu had managed to convince their manager that Infinite were in desperate need of break; not a big one, just an early end to practice on Friday, and Saturday off. That was all.

Drinks were bought (by Sunggyu in the end; Woohyun was too keen to go for Sunggyu's liking so he thought he'd better go himself) and when the time came, Sunggyu announced an early end to practice.

All of the members (except Woohyun of course) just stared at Sunggyu, as if waiting for him to say 'Joking! As IF!'

Finally Sungjong spoke.

"You're messing with us, aren't you?"

"No, why would I say that as a joke?" Sunggyu sounded a little disgruntled by how shocked the other members were.

The other memebers mummbled incoherent responses, not wanting to tell Sunggyu the truth as he glared at them all.

"Well?" Sunggyu asked pointedly as the other members looked away sheepishly. They were saved by Woohyun, the only one not looking sheepish or surprised.

"It's because you're a tight Gyu, come on, even you know you are. Leave them alone." Woohyun said teasingly, winding an arm around the leader's waist.

Sunggyu glared at the vocal but visibly loosened up, much to the relief of the other members.

Woohyun turned back to the other members and smiled, "anyway! We're all finished with practice! Let's go!" And with that, he led the way out of practice with Sunggyu in tow. There was a second of hesitation and then Hoya and Dongwoo quickly rushed after them, followed not far behind by Myungsoo and Sungjong, with Sungyeol a little further back.

"Looks like having those two dating is coming in handy" Sungyeol heard Sungjong whisper to Myungsoo, who giggled.

Sungyeol scowled.

The members had thought the surprises were over but when they got back to the dorms Sunggyu announced that he'd bought drinks for them all and that they should all hang out and drink.

This time no one said anything at all until Woohyun brought the bottles of soju and beer from the kitchen.

"Woohyun, did you drug him or what?!" Sungjong exclaimed, but only after he'd grabbed himself a can of beer.

Everyone laughed, except Sunggyu and Sungyeol.

"I have my ways" Woohyun replied with a smirk, which was quickly wiped away when Sunggyu whacked him over the back of the head.

Sungyeol was already over all this; Sungjong's 'witty' remarks were making him ty and Myungsoo laughing at them all were making him feel worse. He decided just to slip away to his room whilst no one was looking and pretend to go to sleep.

But as he was backing away from the group of boys, an arm slipped around his shoulder, stopping him.

"Hey, you haven't got a drink yet! Get on it quick in case Sunggyu changes his mind!" Dongwoo's bright smile stood in stark contrast to Sungyeol's gloomy expression but even with how crap Sungyeol felt, he couldn't help feel a little comforted by the always happy rapper. Maybe it wasn't so bad...

He heard Sungjong say something to make Myungsoo laugh again and his urge to get away swelled up inside him again and he quickly started to form an excuse.

"Actually I-"

"Here you go!" Before he could even begin to make an excuse to leave, another arm had been added to his shoulders and a beer was put in his hand, this time by the other rapper. The two of them led him over to the couch and sat down with him before he could even think to protest.

"Can you believe we actually get a night off to drink?" Dongwoo said, rather excitedly after taking a large gulp of beer, "apparently we get tomorrow off as well!"

"Lucky for you huh? You lightweight" Hoya , dodging the swats from the other rapper.

Sungyeol rolled his eyes at the two rappers, taking a sip of beer. Now that he was sitting down with the two rappers, it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be and he figured he could hang out for a little while and then when everyone started to get drunk (as they all would) he could just slip off to bed then.

Little did he know that Dongwoo and Hoya had been assigned to 'keep-Sungyeol-with-everyone-and-drinking' duties and they weren't planning on failing. Woohyun hadn't fully explained to them why they needed to do this but he had told them it had to do with why Sungyeol had been acting so strange lately and that was all the reasoning they needed; Sungyeol had been acting beyond strange and anything they could do to help, they would.

Originally Woohyun had planned to do it himself but since his outburst, Sungyeol hadn't been so keen on him and he knew he would probably suspect something.

Plus, Woohyun had another plan to take care of; getting Sunggyu drunk.

When he saw that Dongwoo and Hoya had successfully stopped the bean pole member from escaping, Woohyun decided to put his plan into action, sitting down next to Sunggyu with two drinks, handing one to him.

Sunggyu rolled his eyes at him, "I'm not drinking, remember?"

"Really? You're taking tight to a new level tonight..." Woohyun replied, sipping from his beer.

"No, I just don't feel like getting drunk" Sunggyu scowled.

"You don't have to get drunk! Just have one drink with everyone!" Woohyun gestured around at the other members, all with a beer in hand.

"Yeah Sunggyu! Have a drink!" Dongwoo piped up, already obviously a little tipsy; Hoya had only been kind of joking when he called him a lightweight.

"You organised all this, you should have fun too!" Sungjong added.

"Even Sungyeol is drinking for god sakes!" Hoya chipped in, pointing to Sungyeol as he took a big swig from his beer. Sungyeol gave the rapper a 'so what?' look and noticed Myungsoo looking at him but when he turned towards the visual he was watching the leader.

Sungyeol shook his head and took another large swig of beer, finishing the can. Then he slammed the empty can down on the table and turned to Sunggyu.

"Loosen up will ya?! Have one drink! It's not like you've got some big secrets or something that you might spill if you're drunk; we all already know you've got the hots for that weirdo greaseball next to you so stop being no fun and drink with us all will ya?!"

Everyone looked slightly tacken aback by Sungyeol's outburst; that was the most he'd said to any of them (except Woohyun) in at least a month.

Then, after a minute of shocked silence, Woohyun nudged Sunggyu and gestured the drink towards him again.

Sunggyu sighed and took, earning a cheer from the rest of the members. Sunggyu rolled his eyes, "all of you need to mind your own business."

Woohyun smirked beside him; his plan had worked. 

You see, once Sunggyu had one drink, he would just keep drinking until someone stopped him. At times this habit had caused all sorts of trouble but this time around it was a very useful habit.

All Woohyun had to do now was wait.

Meanwhile, Sungyeol had gotten himself another beer and sat back down between to two rappers. 

"I'm impressed, Sungyeol. You got tight Sunggyu to drink! Well done!" Hoya clapped him on the back.

Sungyeol rolled his eyes, "he was going to cave at some point anyway, all I did was make it happen faster."

"Why do you say that?" Hoya asked.

"Because it's Woohyun asking; when has he ever held his ground against Woohyun, even before they were dating?"

At that Dongwoo let out one of his classic Dongwoo crazy cackles and Hoya couldn't help but laugh a bit in agreement; both only laughing more when Sunggyu, having overheard Sungyeol's remark, tried to defend himself before realising the bean pole member had a point.

"Does this mean I can always get my way with you?" Woohyun asked the leader teasingly.

Sunggyu scowled, "absoloutely not, don't even think about trying me."

Woohyun simply chuckled and snuggled into his side. "Wouldn't dare."

Sungyeol rolled his eyes at the couple and gave Hoya and Dongwoo a 'see what I mean' look.

"You seem a lot less against Woohyun and Sunggyu dating now, Sungyeol." Myungsoo's voice piped up and Sungyeol turned to see the visual giving him a questioning look. Sungyeol hadn't realised he'd let his facade slip until Myungsoo had said that and he momentarily panicked a little. 

Calm down Sungyeol, too late to panic now, you're just going to have to roll with it.

He pulled a scornful face together and snorted, "since when did my opinion matter to those two anyway? No point bothering."

Myungsoo said nothing more but he looked as if he didn't belive the other man. Sungyeol looked away, taking another large gulp of beer.

Enough is enough, Sungyeol thought, I'm going to drink and enjoy myself for tonight and just pretend those two don't exist. I can have one night without thinking about him.

Sungyeol nodded to himself and took yet another large gulp of beer.

                                                             *                                                          *                                                            *

A few hours later and Sungyeol had gotten... a little sloppy.

Actually, a LOT sloppy.

Myungsoo was pretty sure that things had gotten out of hand when they were playing games and Woohyun had the brilliant idea of enforcing a drinking game in which Sungyeol had to take a shot of soju everytime he yelled at someone.

From that point on, Sungyeol had gotten very drunk, very fast.

Not that he was the only one; Sunggyu had not stopped drinking since he started and was now quite drunk. Not as bad as Sungyeol but still...bad.

Whilst those two were obviously the drunkest of the seven of them, Hoya and Dongwoo and Sungjong were all quite tipsy themselves, with the three of them finding most things fairly hysterical. Hoya would try not to laugh at them, attempting to look stern but everytime he cracked as the other two continued to cackle.

It would be endearing if it wasn't so annoying.

Myungsoo had stopped drinking after two beers, the soju seeming like a recipe for disaster. He'd noted that Woohyun had done the same and he was almost surprised until he had noticed how drunk Sunggyu was getting; obviously Woohyun wanted to remember this tomorrow.

To be honest, he'd been tempted to drink to excess, to forget everything, to just go a bit nuts.

But as he'd watched Sungyeol quickly down two beers he couldn't stop the voice in the back of his head that told him to stay sober, just in case.

Sure, Sungyeol could hold his liqour and could drink quite well but Myungsoo had never seen him down alcohol so quickly and with how he'd been acting for the last couple months, he was fairly concerned for the other man.

He partially wished he could hate Sungyeol sometimes but it never happened. No matter what awful things Sungyeol said or how made he made him, Myungsoo still couldn't help but care for the man.

More than he should.

And for some reason, Sungyeo hated him. And it hurt Myungsoo like a knife in his chest.

Myungsoo shook his head; now wasn't the time to dwell on this. 

At that moment, Sungyeol rose suddenly from the couch, as if a great epiphany had just struck him. Myungsoo hadn't seen him stand up for at least an hour and he was unsurprised to note that the older man swayed on the spot as he stood.

He abruptly started moving, apparently trying to walk somewhere, although god knows where. He only got two steps before the swaying motion that accompanied every step won over the little balance he seemed to have left. Myungsoo sprung up from the couch, catching the boy before he could fall face first onto the floor and guiding him onto the couch next to him.

Sungyeol slumped onto the visual and then looked up. 

"If I didn't know better, I'd shink you were Myungsoooo." Sungyeol said, slurring his words a lot less than Myungsoo had expected him to. "But you could only be Myungsoooo if I was dreaming and I'm prrrettttyyy sure I'm awake."

Myungsoo could only stare at the older man, not sure how to interpret his words let alone how to reply to them.

Sungyeol kept talking anyway.

"Sssoooo I'm assssumming that you're Woohyun and my eyess are just going ssstttupid on meeee."

Sungyeol paused to squint his eyes, leaning closer to Myungsoo's face.

Myungsoo felt his breath catch in his throat and his heart speed up; Sungyeol was too close for his liking.

"You...You really look liiikkkeee Myunnnggssooo though..." Sungyeol leant forward into Myungsoo's shoulder making the younger boy stiffen. "You smeellll like him too..."

"Why can't I be Myungsoo?" Myungsoo found himself asking without really meaning to.

Sungyeol stared at him for a minute and then said slowly (or at least slower than he had already been speaking), "becausssssse Myungsssoooo HATES me. I've made sssssssure of it."

"What do you mean you've made sure of it?" Part of Myungsoo knew it was kind of wrong of him to do this, considering Sungyeol was drunk to the point where he was seemingly convinced that Myungsoo was actually Woohyun but he also knew that he wouldn't be able to get Sungyeol to talk to him sober. And he really wanted to understand exactly why the older man hated him so much.

Sungyeol groaned, "I've already told you this. Are you just trying to make me cry again you jerk?!" His indignation apparently sobered him up enough for him not to slur his words but not enough for him to recognise that Myungsoo wasn't Woohyun.

Wait, Woohyun made him cry? Why? 

"I've forgotten what happened, can you tell me again?" 

Sungyeol huffed, "youuu forgoottt? Fine! But, I'm nnnnneeevvvveerrr telling you again after this!"

Myungsoo only nodded, waiting for the older man to continue. 

It was a slurry and in some parts almost incomprehensible explanation but Myungsoo got most of it and he could fill in the gaps from there. He could hardly believe what he was hearing though, it seemed so unlikely and he almost expected Sungyeol to sober up and say "HA! YOU WISH!"

When Sungyeol finished there was silence for a moment and Myungsoo just stared at Sungyeol, shocked. The older male was staring at the opposite wall, seemingly lost in thought but he may have just drunkenly spaced out.

Finally, Myungsoo slowly (almost as slowly as Sungyeol) said, "so... you've been acting like this because you like me- I mean Myungsoo and you think he likes Sungjong and not you?"

Sungyeol's head snapped around to look at him, eyes glaring. "Well, if he likes ANYONE it's Sungjong and even if not, he DEFINITELY doesn't like ME!"

Part of Myungsoo wanted to slap Sungyeol and another part wanted to kiss him but he resisted doing either considering the drunken state of the older male.

He did, however, hug him.

"You're actually the stupidest person alive." Myungsoo said, laughing.

He couldn't believe it. All this time he'd thought Sungyeol had found out about his feelings for him and couldn't stand him because of it. He'd thought that the older's homophobic comments had been his way of telling Myungsoo that he knew and he was disgusted. But in reality, Sungyeol had been trying to shield himself against his own unrequited (or so he thought) feelings by making Myungsoo hate him and leave him alone.

And to think, Sungyeol thought he liked Sungjong. The only reason Sungjong and him had gotten seemingly closer was because Myungsoo had cracked one day and told Sungjong about what was going on and how he felt about Sungyeol. He'd started using Sungjong as an excuse to get some space from Sungyeol so he could sort his feelings out but he'd realised after a couple of weeks that they weren't going to go away and he decided to just tell Sungyeol; whether Sungyeol rejected him or not, at least he wouldn't have to hide anymore.

But, right when Myungsoo had decided that, Sungyeol suddenly started acting awful, as if he hated Myungsoo. That combined with the homophobic comments against the WooGyu couple and Myungsoo had realised (or so he thought) that Sungyeol had found out about his feelings somehow and hated him for them.

It had felt like being stabbed in the chest. Over and over.

Myungsoo's only defence was to fight back and the two had started yelling at each other anytime they were together. Which almost hurt Myungsoo more but he didn't know what else to do.

And now, he finds out that it had all been a facade. 

He now realised how dumb they both were, making assumptions and not telling each other things. This would've been solved months ago if they'd just been honest with each other.

"I guess I'm also the stupidest person alive." Myungsoo added.

Sungyeol showed no signs of having heard Myungsoo and they sat in silence for awhile.

"I know you're not Myungsoo," Sungyeol said quietly, his face buried in Myungsoo's shoulder, "but for the moment I'm going to pretend you are, if that's okay?"

Myungsoo was surprised by the statement but then he smiled softly, hugging the older boy tighter, "that's fine with me."

Myungsoo felt the boy go limp after a few minutes and when he looked down he saw that he was asleep.

Myungsoo smiled again and then sighed, "I need you to trust me again. I'll get you to trust me enough to confess to me sober." Then he nodded his head sternly, confident in his words.

                                                             *                                                  *                                           *

Sunggyu was definitely drunk. There was no doubt about that.

Woohyun hadn't been able to move for at least an hour now, as everytime he so much as tried to move Sunggyu would let out a whine and hold him tighter.

Woohyun was aware that in some ways it maybe served him right for plotting to get Sunggyu drunk but hey, he wanted to know what Sunggyu would do whilst drunk. 

Now he knew that he apparently didn't do much but continue to drink and get sleepy and dazed and then eventually, when he ran out of energy to keep drinking, use the person he was sitting next to as a good place to sleep. Woohyun was now half laying down, his head, neck and shoulders proped up against the arm of the couch but the rest of him laid across the couch, as he'd been forced to lay by Sunggyu. Sunggyu lay across him, his face resting against his shoulder, one arm wrapped around the back of his neck, the other across his chest, one leg lay on the couch, the other across Woohyun's legs. Woohyun wasn't uncomfortable as such but he was perplexed as to how Sunggyu, drunk or not, could be asleep in this position.

Woohyun had  seen Sunggyu drunk before, of course, and it had been pretty much the same those times too, Sunggyu had progressively become more dazed and sleepy until he eventually got so sleepy that he would use Woohyun as a bed, sprawling across him and not letting him move. Which was partially why Woohyun wasn't as flustered by Sunggyu laying all over him as he might normally have been.

Although, now that he was thinking about it it occurred to him that Sunggyu only ever used him as a bed...He'd bring that up with Sunggyu tomorrow.

He sighed, looking down at his boyfriend. He'd kind of hoped that maybe Sunggyu would be different now they were dating and that he'd do something stupid whilst drunk because of it.

No such luck.

On a positive note, it looked like their plan had worked; Woohyun could see Sungyeol and Myungsoo on the couch across from them and it looked as if Sungyeol and Myungsoo had made up, if Sungyeol being asleep in Myungsoo's arms was anything to go by.

Until about two minutes ago, Dongwoo, Hoya and Sungjong had been talking avidly, every once and a while letting out some loud cackles and then going back to talking, but now they were silent and when Woohyun strained his neck to see them it looked as if they were all on the verge of falling asleep.

As if to confirm this, Dongwoo suddenly said, "Bed, bed, beddity bed." Like zombies, the other two nodded and with no more words exchanged they all rose together and headed off towards their rooms. Woohyun wondered whether they'd actually make it to their beds.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Myungsoo stand. Woohyun turned to look at him and saw he was carrying Sungyeol. He caught Woohyun's eye and blushed a little.

"I'll just take Sungyeol to bed." He said, only just loud enough for Woohyun to hear.

Woohyun smiled, "okay, but remember, he's drunk, so no funny business." He said teasingly.

Myungsoo went bright red and opened his mouth to defend himself but seemed to decide against arguing with Woohyun (possibly because Sungyeol isn't the lightest being ever) and just nodded and headed towards Sungyeol's room.

Woohyun was now pretty sure Myungsoo reciprocated Sungyeol's feelings. Thank god.

Now it was just him and Sunggyu left. 

"Gyu, how about we go to bed huh? My neck is getting sore and as cute as you are I'd really rather sleep on a bed than a sofa."

Sunggyu, of course, didn't reply.

Woohyun sighed, "you know, I hope you don't sleep like this normally because that will totally kill all my fantasies about sleeping with you."

Upon thinking that statement over Woohyun corrected himself, "I'm referring to the fantasies of sharing a bed with you, not the ones about..." 

He trailed off and shook his head, "ugh, not the time to bring that up Nam Woohyun. Your boyfriend is passed out drunk on you and you think it's a good idea to bring up with him?! Aish."

He felt Sunggyu stirr and he looked down to see him looking up at him, bleary eyed.

"So you do think about me that way." Sunggyu  said, his voice soft and slightly croakey but still comprehensible.

Woohyun blushed slightly upon being caught but raised an eyebrow at Sunggyu's statement.

"You say that like you thought I didn't."

Sunggy partially shrugged, not really managing to fully shrug in the position he was in and obviously not wanting to move. 

"Why? Do you not think about me that way?" Woohyun didn't want to be worried but now he was little. He was also concerned about how Sunggyu had seemingly managed to sober up so quickly...

Sunggyu laughed, "of course I have! I reckon that considering how big your ego is your must be directly proportionate in size, among other thoughts."

Okay, scratch the sober thing, Sunggyu was definitely still drunk. Woohyun didn't know whether he was more embarrassed or pleased by this new turn of events to be honest. This was kind of what he'd hoped for in his plan to get Sunggyu drunk (that he'd say embarassing things that he'd never normally say) but on the other hand he was also in a very bad position to be having this conversation and Sunggyu was so flippant about what he saying that Woohyun almost felt he had to be embarrassed for him.

Of course, the pleased side won out.

"What other thoughts?" 

Much to Woohyun's disappointment, Sunggyu simply snorted an shook his head. Apparently even drunk Sunggyu wasn't that easily tricked...

"But then Hyunnie," Woohyun was startled slightly by the pet name, but he wasn't entirely against it.

"Hmm?"

"Why have you never made a move on me?" Sunggyu sounded put out and when Woohyun looked down at him he saw that he was pouting.

Damn it, he's really cute like this...

"What do you mean?" Woohyun asked, reaching his arm around to run his fingers through Sunggyu's hair.

Sunggyu smiled, tilting his head to lean more into Woohyun's hand and arm. 

"Do you mean I'm not affectionate enough?" Woohyun prompted.

Sunggyu shook his head, "not that, it's just that... things have been so chaste."

Even drunk he speaks like an old man...

"Do you mean you wanto to have ?" Woohyun knew that Sunggyu wasn't meaning that he wanted to jump to that but it was fun to a bit.

Sunggyu shook his head, "not yet, I mean, we've only ever kissed, like, no tongues or anything. Maybe that would be good a start. Once we've made out a bit we can start talking about ."

Woohyun was a bit tacken aback by Sunggyu's straight forwardness; Sunggyu was normally so much easier to embarrass but apparently when he was drunk he felt a lot less concerned by what he said.

He was also kind of surprised that Sunggyu had been thinking about this. It was true, they had been very chaste so far and considering they'd been going out for almost two months now it was kind of odd that they'd not gone any further. Woohyun had wanted to on multiple occasions but he hadn't known whether Sunggyu would be okay with that so he'd continued to play it safe. 

"I mean, I know I could take the lead but I'm no good at that stuff and you're just so hot, what if I majorly up somehow?" Woohyun was broken from his thoughts by Sunggyu's words and he found himself blushing a little at being called hot by him.

"I don't know how you could majorly up but even if you did, I'd still think you were the iest guy on the planet so don't worry."

Sunggyu snorted, "you're an idiot."

"So I'm hot, I'm an idiot, what else am I?" Woohyun was smirking now.

Sunggyu thought for a moment, "you're charming, beautiful, passionate, handsome, y, talented, caring, crazy, extravagant, obnoxio-" 

Woohyun put his hand over Sunggyu's mouth to stop him talking "okay okay, that'll do."

At that moment Sunggyu went a bit green and convulsed slightly. Woohyun's eyes went wide and he pulled Sunggyu up, hand still over his mouth and Sunggyu put his over the top, obviously trying to hold it in.

"Okay, let's get you to the bathroom" Woohyun said, getting them both up and directing Sunggyu towards the bathroom.

Well, the night was over now but all around, Woohyun would say it had been pretty successful. 

It would be worth the scolding he was going to get tomorrow.

THIS TOOK ME SO LONG TO WRITE OMFG

I really wanted to try and get this chapterr right and it just kept getting longer and longer and I edited it and stuff and it's probably not even that good but I tried.

My imagination had been really active lately so after this I'm working on two one shots, one JongKey one and one MyungYeol one so if you're interested keep an eye out for those (althought god only knows how long they'll take me to write, honestly...)

Did you like this chapter? Sungyeol's so stupid isn't he? And WooGyu are so dorky and stupid... What am I even writing?

Well, I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and that it fulfilled your drunk Infinite wishes.

I love you all! xxxxx
