Chapter Ten

Hiding from the Rain

While traveling back to Seoul to be with the other members, Hoya couldn’t help but be excited. When he stopped thinking about everybody else and only worried about his own happiness, he couldn’t help but feel slightly giddy to be seeing Sunggyu again. Even if Hoya wasn’t completely sure what he was feeling, he knew that when Sunggyu was around he was happy, therefore just seeing the leader would have been great.

 

However, when he opened the door to the dorm, he saw something he wasn’t expecting to see. Sunggyu and Myungsoo were lying on the ground, cuddling each other in their sleep.

 

An unpleasant feeling began to circulate in Hoya’s veins as he just stared at the two lying o the floor. Why was Sunggyu in such an intimate position with the group’s visual? The leader was normally not very touchy when there were no cameras around. Occasionally he’d engage in skinship with Woohyun since, after years of doing it in front of the camera, some things became a habit for the two the same way it had for Dongwoo and Hoya. But Hoya had never fallen asleep in such a position with Infinite’s other rapper.

 

“You look delighted.” Sungyeol’s familiar whisper pulled Hoya’s attention away from the sight that was in front of him. The taller boy had a malicious smile on his face, as if he was about to blackmail someone or something.

 

“Shut up.” Hoya pushed passed Sungyeol and walked over to his room to drop off his bag.

 

Sungyeol, being the annoying friend he was, followed Hoya while chuckling to himself. “Why do I need to shut up? I’m just welcoming you home since you’ve been gone for a while.”

 

“No you’re not, you’re here to laugh at me.” Hoya sighed and collapsed onto his bed. “I was just surprised to see them like that.”

 

“Then why were you glaring?” Sungyeol answered with a smirk as he got into the bed with Hoya. “It looked like you were ready to kill Myungsoo.”

 

Hoya sighed. This kid was annoying. But this was also the guy who told him that he was in love with their leader and that he should make sure his feelings were sincere before acting on anything. “Can I ask you something though?”

 

“Of course.” Sungyeol was in middle of stretching out next to Hoya to make himself comfortable. “About Gyu hyung?”

 

“No, about me.” Hoya sighed. “I thought about what you said about all the feelings even though I kind of thought you were crazy-

 

“I wasn’t, was I?” Sungyeol smiled brightly. “I am always right about stuff like-“

 

“But it’s not my feelings I’m asking about right now.” Hoya cut the other off. “Don’t interrupt me like that.”

 

“Fine, continue.” Sungyeol rolled his eyes.

 

“If I was, well, into guys, would you hate me?” Hoya couldn’t look at Sungyeol, too afraid that he’d see a look of disgust on the taller boy’s face.

 

But he knew he wasn’t getting that look when he heard Sungyeol burst into a fit of laughter. It took about a minute for the boy to calm down. “Wouldn’t I be a jerk if I told you to go out with a guy and then hated you for it? I wouldn’t have told you about your feelings if I didn’t approve.” And even though they had talked about somewhat serious stuff before, Hoya had never heard Sungyeol talk in such a serious tone before. “Actually, for the past few weeks we’ve been talking a lot about it because of your drama. I can’t tell how Woohyun and Dongwoo think, but the rest of us seem a lot more comfortable about it. After all, we haven’t hated Sunggyu for how he thinks and it’s been at least six months since me and Myung found out.”

 

“What?” Hoya sat up in surprise. He was shocked at how well Sungyeol reacted. Maybe his group wasn’t as closed minded as the mainstream society they lived in. Plus, the fact they knew about Sunggyu was a huge shock. He thought that was their secret. “You and Myungsoo know about Sunggyu?”

 

“Well Myungsoo found out first and told me about it.” Sungyeol admitted. “Though we haven’t had a great chance to tell Sunggyu we know. He’s always surrounded by people.”

 

“How did you find out?” Hoya was even more shocked. This secret was something Sunggyu protected with his heart and soul yet Sunggyu didn’t know they knew?

 

“He told Myungsoo once when they were out drinking with some people from the company.” Sungyeol informed the dancer. “Luckily no one else heard him, and actually we don’t know if Sunggyu even remembers saying anything because the day after, he didn’t confront Myungsoo or anything. It’s just something that Myungsoo pretends never happened.”

 

“How many secrets do you know?” Hoya couldn’t help but wonder. Sungyeol knew everything about everyone it seemed. He knew about Hoya’s feelings before Hoya, he knew about Sunggyu even though the older didn’t know he knew, it seemed that Sungyeol knew everything about everyone.

 

“Just a few.” Sungyeol jumped off the bed. “They’re waking up, I’m gonna go see if Myung wants to go grab some food.”

 

Hoya was confused, the two in the living room hadn’t made much noise. But when he got off his bed and looked out into the living room, Myungsoo and Sunggyu were sitting up, rubbing at their eyes with Sungyeol trying to yank Myungsoo to his feet. The tall boy must have had a sixth sense when it came to the other members, that would explain how he always seemed to know everything.

 

“Hoya?” Sunggyu yawned, “Is that you or am I seeing things?”

 

“I just got home.” Hoya smiled and helped Sunggyu to his feet. “Did you have a good nap?”

 

“No, the floor is too hard.” Sunggyu complained as he stretched out.

 

Hoya would never admit it out loud, but he was glad Sunggyu’s nap with Myungsoo was uncomfortable. Maybe that will stop the two from trying it in the future. “What were you guys doing on the floor anyways?”

 

“We were just talking and next thing I know, we were waking up.” Sunggyu shrugged, “How was filming?”

 

“Great. My costars are really talented and have a lot of helpful advice.” Hoya smiled to himself. But then suddenly, he seemed to realize that all this time he was worried about his feelings for Sunggyu and didn’t really think of what the older may be feeling. “Gyu, do you like anyone right now?”

 

“What?” Sunggyu was surprised by the question. Usually his love life was awkward between the two of them.

 

“Just wondering if you like anyone right now.” Hoya asked again. “You don’t have to tell me who it is. Just a yes or a no will work.”

 

“Maybe.” The older shrugged with a smirk. “But we have a schedule soon so now’s not the right time to talk about it.”

 

“We have time.” Hoya didn’t need to check a clock to know they had at least an hour before they needed to be ready. “Just a simple yes or no.”

 

“No. There, happy?” Sunggyu still seemed flustered, but was saved when Sungyeol and Myungsoo appeared in the room, calling out for the leader to cook them some ramen.

 

“No,” Hoya sighed to himself, watching the two drag their leader to the kitchen. “I’m not happy about that.”
