You’d always had a soft-spot for the obnoxious maknae, so you walked over to the couch with the plan of talking to him. Dinner would be fairly soon, so it was pointless for him to go to sleep only to have to wake right back up. However when you sat down in front of the couch, DongHo grumbled incoherently and shifted so that his back was to you.

“Yah!” You exclaim, annoyed because your intent had been good. “Shin DongHo, you’re such a pain!”

Behind you, Eli and Kevin chuckled. “You’re just now deciding this?” Eli asked, pausing his search to turn and look at you. “DongHo’s been a pain in the since our debut.”

“Yah~!” DongHo complained, sitting up and twisting around to glare at his hyung.

At the same time, Kevin lightly flicked Eli’s head. “Watch your language: there’s a girl here.”

“But no comment on him calling me that?” Sighing, DongHo flopped back onto his side. “It’s because I’m the maknae, isn’t it?”

“No, it’s because it’s true.” Eli laughed, returning to the movies before Kevin could scold him again.

Ignoring Eli and Kevin now, you returned your attention to DongHo, watching him trying to sleep for a while before doing anything. He wore a black and silver tank top that exposed his slightly muscled arms and loose blue jeans, it was a strange combination that he wouldn’t usually wear in public. Still, he looked good in it. “As usual.” You add to yourself quietly, not realising you’d spoken aloud until DongHo turned around and his eyes met yours.

“What’s usual?” While waiting for an answer as you flushed and stumbled for words, DongHo’s eyes shifted suddenly to something behind you.

You were saved from answering when a set of muscled arms wrapped around your shoulders from behind, making you squeak in surprise. “____-ah~” KiSeop’s voice came from close to your ear. “JaeSeop and I made a list of what's needed to make dinner...”

“Good for you?” Your words come out as a question though you didn’t intend them to, confused as to why this was important information to share. Slowly as you thought about this, it began to sink in what he was trying to ask.

“You should go get it for us.”

“Why do I have to? Can’t you and JaeSeop get them yourselves?”

“Because we don’t know how much of each to get.” Letting you go, KiSeop stepped around you so that he was now planted in front of you, pouting and pulling his best aegyo on you. “Please~”

Despite your sigh you have no choice but to nod, not when he plays his aegyo card. “Fine...”

“Yay!” KiSeop cheered, hugging you again before handing you the list of ingredients.

“You should go too.” AJ directed at Eli from behind you.

“But-” Eli pointed toward the movies, indicating that he was obviously occupied at the moment.

“You’re the next best cook here, and Xander will kill us if he finds out we made her go alone.” KiSeop reasoned for AJ, turning to face Eli now that you were set to go.

--Cease the movement of your eyes!!!--

What do you do?

Force Eli to go shopping with you?

Drag KiSeop out shopping with you?

Convince DongHo to go shopping with you?

Writing song: Epik High - Don’t Hate Me

Record’s AN: I’m sorry it’s been so long guys! OTL I’ve been having a lot of issues with my allergies recently and I’m living off of my medicines. Then I have band, pep-band, and symphony, and because I play different instruments in each one I’ve been practicing out the wazoo. Let’s top this off with my insomnia coming back to bite me in the , google spazzing out on me, homework from my AP classes, and the internet not working, and it all just turns out to be no fun at all. T-T

ZP and I will try to get updates up more frequently, though! Fighting~

Also, I changed the --STOP-- because I would burst out singing again if I put that again. So, to me, that was the next logical thing to replace it with. :D
