It was 11 at night but Jeonghan wasn't at home so Seungcheol quickly called the younger which got picked up within a few minutes, "Hello? Jeo- JEONGHAN-?!!"

"Y-yeahhhh Seunggcheolll." Jeonghan giggled.

"Where the hell are you and why are so drunk?" Worry and concern took over Seungcheol, "Is someone with you?"

"Nooo." Jeonghan replied in an uneven voice, "My office. Me alone. Ah no not alone, lonelyyy. This shit-" The sound of glass breaking echoed.

"WHAT'S THAT SOUND?"

"I threw this empty bottle. It had the audacity to get finished up." Jeonghan blabbered.

"Okay hear me out, don't cut the call okay?" Seungcheol immediately grabbed his car's keys and walked out, "I'm coming to pick you up."

"Don't come." Jeonghan mumbled, "You'll hurt me. You hate me."

"I-" Seungcheol choked on his words. Was Jeonghan drunk and behaving like this because of him? This thought itself was enough to send shivers down his spine, "I'll not hurt you, I promise."

"You lie." Jeonghan's lazy voice echoed, "I don't want your attention. I didn't call you. Don't come."

Seungcheol decided to remain silent and let Jeonghan blabber whatever he wanted to. He focused on driving as fast as he could to reach his office.

•Rose Quartz HQ•

He finally reached his destination and rushed towards the desired floor as he barged into Jeonghan's cabin.

Although drunk, Jeonghan flinched to the sudden presence in the room, "Ayo how did you jump out of the phone?"

Seungcheol stared at him in disbelief. It was when he looked at the cabin, empty broken bottles were scattered on the floor while Jeonghan was just drinking more.

Seungcheol snatched the glass away from the younger, "Stop it Jeonghan. Watching this, I must say, you're not going to drink for at least 15 days."

"Who are you to stop me huh?" Jeonghan grabbed the older's collars, "I'm not going to listen to you."

Seungcheol stared at the younger whose face was up close to him. His hair was messy and his face was kinda red. His eyes were partially shut but he still managed to captivate his heart.

Seungcheol gently made the younger sit back on the chair as he closed the bottle of alcohol and abandoned the glass. He went to Jeonghan and offered his hand, "C'mon Jeonghan, let's go home. You're way too drunk than I thought."

Jeonghan pulled the older's hand to which Seungcheol stumbled. He got a grip of both the hands of the chair but his face was dangerously close to the younger.

Jeonghan chuckled lazily trying his best to figure out what he was doing, "Home? That place doesn't feel like home to me. What about you?"

"Jeonghan-" Seungcheol tried to back away but the younger pulled him closer by grabbing his shirt, "Who do you think I am Seungcheol? Your personal toy? One moment you call me an attention seeker and the next moment you do this?"

"We'll talk when you're sober, okay?" Seungcheol patted his cheeks as he slowly escaped the younger's grip and made him stand up.

Jeonghan stumbled as soon as he left the chair so Seungcheol held him in place by holding his waist. The younger placed his hand on the older's chest for support as his head was spinning.

"Let's go."

"I'm not going anywhere." Jeonghan whined, "You'll take me home and then insult me again. I'm never coming with you."

"Jeonghan I'm sorry okay? I'm really sorry but I think it's better to apologise when you'll be sober." Seungcheol insisted, "For now let's just go home."

"You can't force me Seungcheol." Jeonghan rolled his eyes.

Seungcheol tightened his grip on the younger's waist to pull him closer. He gently held Jeonghan's chin to make him look at himself, "I don't force you, because I don't WANT to, NOT because I can't. If you'll fuel me like this, trust me, you will have to start begging me to stop."

"I'm not scared of you." Jeonghan laughed as his head fell against the older's chest, "I'm not going anywhere. Let me just drink more."

"Jeonghan, stop it please. I know I said wrong things to you but I don't mean it." Seungcheol caressed his hair, "Let's go home for now, I promise I'll sort this out tomorrow morning before doing anything else."

Jeonghan giggled as he looked up, "Now who's begging Mr. Choi?"

"You're definitely one of a kind." Seungcheol sighed as the next moment, he lifted Jeonghan within his arms. Jeonghan had no choice but to wrap his hand around the older's neck, "What are you doing?!"

"Weightlifting." Seungcheol mumbled as he pushed the door of the cabin and walked out.

"Seungcheol put me down, I've staff in the office at night too."

"Which means you won't bother if there was no staff?" Seungcheol smirked, "Tell me Jeonghan, what else do you want me to do to you when the staff is not around?"

Jeonghan gulped as his heart was definitely racing. Was it because he was drunk? Or was it because of his flawless husband?

"It's taking you long to say 'nothing' which defines you really want something?" Seungcheol halted on his way to stare at the younger, "Do you like it when I'm this close to you?"

Jeonghan nodded with a chuckle. He didn't know what he was doing, he was just going with his intuitions because that was all he had at that moment.

Seungcheol grinned as he shrugged it off. Even he knew that Jeonghan was drunk so all of his reactions were just the heat of the moment. Well, not all. He continued to walk through the hallway and get into the elevator.

Jeonghan snuggled his face into Seungcheol's chest and covered it with Seungcheol's jacket.

"Jeonghan, what are you doing?" Seungcheol felt the soft touches of the younger which were definitely doing unexplainable and questionable things to him.

"Hiding myself from embarassment." Jeonghan pinched the older's neck.

Seungcheol wriggled, "I swear I'll drop you on the ground if you do that again."

"You'll never, I trust you." Jeonghan muttered.

Seungcheol chuckled to himself. He felt like he had won a war or something, "You don't need to hide."

"Everyone is not like you Seungcheol." Jeonghan kept blabbering while snuggling within the older's clothes, "They're my staff, you're my husband. There's a difference."

Seungcheol slowed down his steps as he tried to comprehend what he just heard, "You- you consider me your husband?"

"What else am I supposed to consider you?" Jeonghan mumbled innocently, "Forced or whatever, the truth is that we're married. The wedding was real, our vows were real. And my apologies towards you are real too. And an attention seeker is the last thing I can be, you know that really well but you still chose to speak those harsh words."

And once Jeonghan began, he didn't stop mumbling, "Now don't start with things like 'you chose to hurt me too'. I know I did but can't you see that I'm genuinely sorry for it? Can't you just forgive me with your whole heart? This is so mean. I'm so tired."

Seungcheol just laughed at how Jeonghan was speaking non-stop while clinging onto him. He probably didn't hear him talk this much in a whole week.

He finally reached his car and somehow managed to open the passanger seat's door. He seated Jeonghan comfortably and leaned over him to fasten his seat belt.

But before he could back away, Jeonghan held his jacket, "Where are you going?"

"See that." Seungcheol pointed at the driver's seat, "I'll walk around and sit there."

"Why do you want to sit away from me?" Jeonghan whined.

Seungcheol caressed the younger's cheeks. He just couldn't stop himself, "Because I've to drive and take us home, right?"

"Drive from here."

"You've gone crazy." Seungcheol laughed, "How am I supposed to drive from here."

"You can do anything."

"Anything?"

"Yes."

Seungcheol leaned closer as he rested one of his arm against the seat. He was about to close the distance between them when he stopped himself, for good. He just patted the younger's head, "Sleep until we reach home."

He closed the door and walked around to get into the driver's seat. It was when he realised that Jeonghan's coat was missing. He removed his jacket and covered the younger with it so that he could adjust warmly.

He felt Jeonghan's hand caressing his head. Seungcheol unconsciously leaned into the touch and smiled, "Happy? Now sleep."

•JC Mansion•

Seungcheol felt relieved when he finally made into the mansion along with Jeonghan resting his head on his shoulders as his drunk self was obviously out of hand.

"Jeonghan, please co-operate, will you?" Seungcheol begged for the nth time.

Jeonghan just scoffed as he refused to move even by an inch, "I'll go." He left the older's support as he tried to walk by himself but stumbled even before putting the first step.

Seungcheol was quick to catch him as his hands got wrapped around the younger's waist, "You can't even walk by yourself."

"How pathetic." Jeonghan giggled, "You're so kind. Why are you taking care of me? I don't deserve it. And I don't want your attention, I swear."

"Jeonghan please stop it." Seungcheol whispered, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it."

"I remember." Jeonghan sunk into the older's embrace, "You once said that I'll understand your pain when I'll feel the same. I do today. I'm sorry."

"Jeonghan-" Seungcheol was about to speak when Jeonghan kissed his cheek, "What-"

"How are you even real?" Jeonghan squished the older's face, "I'm so bad. I've hurt you so much."

"You seriously need to sleep." Seungcheol scoffed as he tried to move but while walking, Jeonghan's leg stumbled on the couch and they fell on it, Jeonghan being on top of Seungcheol.

At the next moment, Jeonghan was leaning closer. Seungcheol just stared at him as if he was frozen at his place. He didn't know what to do. He knew Jeonghan was really very drunk and nothing should happen between them in that state but his self control was declining drastically.

"Thankyou." Seungcheol sighed in relief when the younger's face fell against his shoulder.

"You smell good." Jeonghan muttered as his lips grazed over the older's neck.

Seungcheol chuckled to himself as his arm rested on the younger's waist, "Didn't you say that my room and I myself stink?"

"I was making excuses." Jeonghan laughed as his hands wrapped around Seungcheol's neck.

"Why? To leave flowers for me?"

"Mhmmm." Jeonghan hummed, "But you threw them because you hate me. I didn't like it."

Seungcheol gently caressed the younger's hairs, "I don't hate you Jeonghan, not at all. You're way too gorgeous for it."

"Then why do you behave like it?" Jeonghan perked up to look at the older.

"I can't tell you." Seungcheol held the younger's cheeks and kissed his forehead, "You shouldn't know about it."

No matter how drunk Jeonghan was, Seungcheol couldn't take the risk of telling him about his actual feelings, not now, not tomorrow, never. He shouldn't know that Seungcheol still loved him, not at any cost.

"You're acting mean again." Jeonghan whined, "Don't leave me."

"Why do you care about it?" Seungcheol mumbled as he kept caressing the younger's hair.

"I don't know." Jeonghan rose up to look at Seungcheol as he cupped his cheeks, "I just want it. And what I want, I get. Right now, I want you."

Seungcheol's breath hitched. He held the younger's hands and gathered some courage, "Do you love me, Jeonghan?"

Jeonghan giggled, "I don't deserve you. You're too good to deal with a fucked up person like me. Don't waste yourself on me."

"I'm ready to do anything if it's a yes from you." Seungcheol's heartbeat was racing. Please say yes! Please! Please don't repeat the past! I beg you!

Jeonghan once again just giggled as his head fell over the older's shoulder and he drifted to sleep.

"Of course." Seungcheol grinned at his own misery, "What was I even expecting?"

Jeonghan blabbered something while sleeping which was definitely not within Seungcheol's ability to decode. He scoffed as the younger kept clinging onto him adorably.

Seungcheol laughed it off as he proceeded to lift Jeonghan into his arms and walked through the stairs to reach Jeonghan's room and kicked the door through his leg as his hands were obviously not free.

He laid Jeonghan on the bed and removed his shoes. He tucked a blanket over him and arranged the pillows in a way that he wouldn't fall. He caressed his hair for one last time after he switched off the lights and closed the door.

He scoffed outside the room, "Wow Choi Seungcheol, you're doing a great job in staying away from him. You can't be helped."

A/n : Don't be happy guys, they'll have an argument at least once more💀💀
