In which she takes a trip:

Minah spat out her water as Kris walked into the room. The taller male was dressed in very baggy pants, a tight v neck and had a snapback on backwards. He also had sunglasses on as well, even though he was inside and it was also 2 in the morning.

"Yo wassup," Kris drawled out.

"What in the world are you wearing?"

"We're going to America, which means I have to dress like a true american."

"You look stupid."

Yixing walked into the kitchen, took one look at Kris and turned right back around. Minah stifled a laugh at the taller's rejected expression. Yixing came back a few seconds later holding black pants and a sweatshirt. He forced the articles of clothing in Kris's arm and pushed him out of the kitchen. Kris groaned but went to go change.

"You know, I have crazy respect for you." Minah said, handing Yixing a cup of coffee. The latter sipped at the hot beverage and smiled, "I know honey."

Minah poked her head out of the kitchen and checked to see that Luhan and Baekhyun were still preoccupied with their last minute packing before walking back to Yixing. Minah jumped up on the counter, swinging her legs as she stared at Yixing who was sitting in front of her.
She bit her lip as she tried to think on how she should ask the older male.

"Hey Yixing?"

"Mmm"

"When do you cross the line from being friends to....you know...-"

"Dating? Minah, is this about Jongdae?"

Minah's eyes widened as she shook her head, "What?! No, don't be ridiculous..." She trailed off when she saw Yixing giving her a pointed look. Minah lowered her head, "Okay maybe it is."

"Explain to Xingie." Yixing said, sipping his coffee like it was a glass of wine. Minah snorted but tried to explain her predicament, "I don't know what I feel, but it's different from what I feel from you guys. When Chanyeol hugs me, I get annoyed but when Jongdae merely touches my shoulder, my heart drops to my stomach. I have this urge....to keep a smile on his face and...I don't know!" Minah exclaimed, hiding her face in her hands.

Yixing set down the coffee mug, pushing it aside as he pulled Minah into his lap, "Min-Min, listen to me. That stuff is normal, that means that you like him....do you want to hear a secret?" 

Minah nodded, still hiding her face in Yixing's shoulder.

"You guys already act like you're dating. I mean, Jongdae doesn't even talk to other girls, you spend all your time in school with him. He's already placed a little Jongdae-bubble around you."

Minah raised her face slightly, "J-Jongdae bubble?"

Yixing laughed, "Yea, Suho came up to me the other day, asking if you and Jongdae were dating. Apparently Jongdae caught Suho staring at you and he traced a heart on your back and mouthed the word 'mine'." Yixing chuckled, "He's possessive."

Minah flinched when she felt around pair of arms come up behind her. She turned to see Kris (wearing normal clothes) hugging her.

"I invited the little booger."

Minah straightened up, "Really?!"

Kris grinned, "No matter how annoying he is, I can't have you seventh wheeling."

Minah rolled her eyes and shoved Kris gently. Kris let out a good natured laugh as he picked up Minah, bridal style. She squealed as he spun her around.

Minah had noticed that Kris had opened up a lot more to, not just her, but the rest of the boys. He was more playful, calling them nicknames, joining them in their little silly adventures.

He came far from the grumpy, cold man she met back in September.

"Ugh it's toooo early." Jongdae whined as he leaned against Chanyeol who happily acted like a pillar to the shorter male. Minah grinned as she handed her passport to the airport person. 

She turned around when she heard a tiny snore behind her. Minah stifled a laugh when she saw Yixing asleep on Kris's back. It was currently 3:30 in the morning and their flight was at 4:45. Why Luhan booked such an early flight? The world may never know.

The airport person blinked, unable to process the seven very good looking boys in front of her. Minah rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers, "Woman please, my flight is today."

Baekhyun grinned as he threw an arm around Minah's shoulder, "Awww is my Min Min baby jealous??"

Minah scoffed, "You wish, I just want to grab a cup of coffee before we got on the plane."

Baekhyun pouted, "You should have just said yes to spare my feelings."

Minah smiled sweetly and pinched his cheek, "And what's the fun in that Baekkie baby?"

Baekhyun pouted as he rubbed his sore cheek, "I've rubbed off on her."

Minseok grinned, "And those fault is that?"

Baekhyun groaned, "What is it? Pick on Baekhyun day?"

"I thought that was everyday"

"Shut up Kris."

"Hey wanna hear a joke?"

"Jongdae no one ever wants to hear your jokes."

Jongdae pouted, "I thought you liked my jokes Minah."

Minah smiled sheepishly, "I laugh so you don't feel bad."

Chanyeol clapped his hands together, effectively startling Jongdae, "True love folks."

Jongdae rolled his eyes, "So you wanna hear the joke or not?"

"Okay fine, only because you probably won't shut up until we say yes."

Jongdae grinned victoriously as he rubbed his hands together, "What do you call a guy who's a butthead in space?"

Minah sighed heavily, "I'm going to regret this but...what?"

A smile creeped wider and wider on Jongdae's face, "An Ass-tronaut."

"You have 3 seconds before I kick your Ass-tronaut"

Jongdae yawned loudly as he swung an arm around Minah's shoulder. Yixing watched as Minah pretended to complain before letting Jongdae rest his arm around her shoulder.

"They're so cute."

Yixing turned around to see Luhan starting at the two, "Yea, I'm just wondering when Jongdae will make the move."

"If anything, I bet Minah's going to make the move."

Luhan and Yixing turned around to see Baekhyun behind them. Chanyeol raised an eyebrow, "Can we bet on this?"

Yixing frowned, "We are not betting on who's going to ask who out?"

"Twenty that they'll both say it at the same time."

"KRIS!"

"Thirty that they'll both chicken out."

"MINSEOK!"

"Deal."

"chANYEOL!....listen, we are not betting on- Kris put your wallet away."

"We'll do it in secret guys."

"We're right here dumbass."

Minah let out a shout of victory as their cab pulled into the hotel parking lot, "This place is amazing!"

Luhan sighed, "Yea, and it emptied out my wallet."

"Didn't you use your dad's black card."

"No comment."

Jongdae gracefully tumbled out of the car as soon as it came to a stop. He shot back up and raced to the entrance.

Kris sighed, "I'll go get him."

Luhan tossed him an envelope, "Ask for the manager and give this to them, my dad is business partners with this company and he pulled a couple strings to get us top notch rooms."

Baekhyun rubbed his hand together excitedly, "This is going to be a fun tri- Chanyeol I swear to god, give that twenty back to Minseok, we are not betting on Minah and Jongdae."
