Simon Says :: BTS
Twenty-One :: A JYP Survival ShowHe survived for three hours before Na Sanghyun started contemplating how likely it was that he could away with homocide on camera.
This situation wouldn't be one he wanted to be in under regular circumstances, but with everything that had occured in the past twenty four hours he had even less desire for it.
Not to mention that Byunjae was putting him on edge. In the dressing room the day before he'd been in an absolute rage, screaming at anyone who got close but especially directing his fury at Sanghyun himself. And Sanghyun knew in a way that it had been warranted then.
But today it's like the tantrum had never happened. Byunjae is acting cheerful and incredibly friendly with him, more so than normal even, and it's putting Sanghyun on edge. Byunjae never forgives and he never forgets. Seongjun is a great example of that.
And so Sanghyun has had his guard up the entire day, returning his friend's enthusiasm, but cautiously.
The fact his real partner for the day is Koda certainly isn't helping anything. Byunjae and Koda get on like cats and dogs on a good day, and with the events of the competition they've only gotten worse.
The worst part though, Sanghyun muses, is that he actually wanted to try and get along with Koda today. Thinking about friendships the night before has made him a bit more sympathetic to the other boy, and he wanted to try and mend bridges after two months of either ignoring or teasing Koda - with Byunjae now that he thinks about it.
But instead, he's stuck attempting to play peacemaker between Byunjae and Koda while they attempt to rip each other's heads off.
"That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard, second to only everything else you have ever said!"
Sanghyun sighs heavily as Byunjae and Koda start up yet another argument, about something stupid probably. He's getting seriously sick of it and so instead of tuning in he glances around to make sure no one is watching them.
Their hand held camera is turned off and in his bag, all but unused to this point due to their inability to share. It was like being stuck with two kindergarteners.
"I'm right, right Sanghyun? You agree with me!" Byunjae is suddenly in his face, demanding as always.
Sanghyun blinks. "I wasn't paying attention. Shouldn't we probably start heading back? We've wandered pretty far from the main building and we wouldn't want to be late."
Byunjae frowns. "Just say you agree with me." He presses, pouting slightly.
Sanghyun sighs. "I'm not going to agree until I know what it was about, and I honestly don't care what it was about."
Byunjae stares at him, and then glances over at Koda who has apparently stopped caring about whatever they were fighting about and is now enthusiastically talking to one of the stall owners.
Byunjae steps closer and lowers his voice. "Look, do you want to debut or not? Our friendship is adorable but now people have been questioning it. If we want to do this we need to set things aside. Or... or at least we should pretend to."
He glaces away slightly at the last line, and realization hits Sanghyun hard. He may not consider Byunjae his best friend, but Byunjae really does think of him as a best friend.
Well now he feels even worse.
