< Chen's  POV >

Chen woke up with a start the next day. He heard loud laughter echoing from outside the door, the sound nasally and high. As he padded out to where the noise was coming from in his newly donned slippers, Chen discovered that it was just Baekhyun, who was sitting in the living room, cross legged, a container of ice cream between his legs.

"Luhan ge, it's just me. Get your out of bed," a specific Chinese voice answered. 

Luhan threw off the covers grudgingly and appeared at the door, opening it to see Tao standing there in all of his skinny jeans glory. He rubbed a hand in his hair and yawned, giving a Tao a look that basically said 'go to hell'. "Tao, I really don't want to have t
