CHAPTER VIII

          "Oh my gosh, I'm going to meet him..."

          Minseok laughed as he walked side by side with Sehun. The cold air nipped at their skins as the stars high up above kept them company on the twenty minute walk back to the apartment.

          "Don't freak out too much." Minseok chuckled. "You wouldn't want to ruin your beautiful TaoHun ship now would you?"

          Sehun shook his head no. "I'll be cool. I'm the infamous Ice Prince after all.~"

          No matter how much he says he's the "Ice Prince", it's quite obvious that Sehun is anything but that when he gets really excited over anything. The second he even caught a slight glimpse of Zitao from across the street, he immediately squealed and then slapped his cheeks as if he was trying to wake himself up from a dream.

          Luhan was dressed in an adorable deer costume while Zitao was in his panda bear onesy. Very cute.

         "BAOZI!" Luhan literally shrieked as he tackled Minseok into a bone crushing hug. "My Baozi came for me.~"

          "So this is Xiumin..." Zitao commented with a smirk. "I'm Zitao, nice to meet you."

          Minseok smiled and bowed respectively. "Nice to meet you too! This prince is Sehun."

         Sehun just stared at Zitao before blushing and diverting his gaze. Thankfully it's the middle of the night and so no one saw the way his blush only intensified as he glanced over to Zitao again and then back down to his feet.

          Zitao chuckled. "Shy, I like that."

          Luhan and Minseok giggled as Sehun's eyes widened and he quickly looked anywhere else that wasn't Zitao.

          By the time the four of them made it back to Baekhyun's Halloween party, things had gotten a little strained and quite uncomfortable in the house. Jongdae is awkwardly talking with Baekhyun and Chanyeol while trying to ignore the couple making out on the couch. It was quite disturbing seeing Yifan practically devouring Junmyeon's face... Then there was three other poor souls who were probably friends of someone here who Minseok didn't know, but those three boy, the poor things. They had to deal with the now completely awkward atmosphere that surrounded the place.

          With a smile, Minseok walked over to Jongdae and brought Luhan over along with him. "Hey."

          Jongdae and Luhan did a small fist bump while Baekhyun and Chanyeol's eyes both widened to the size of saucers. Luhan just smiled as he waved to the two shocked boys in front of him.

          "Hey Luhan, wassup?" Jongdae asked.

          "Nothing much, just came to see my Baozi.~" The idol responded with a smile as he wrapped a protective arm around Minseok's shoulders.

          "Aish, no teasing..." Minseok mumbled under his breath. "And these two are Baekhyun aka Bacon and the tall one is his friend Chanyeol who I met today."

          Baekhyun and Chanyeol bowed to Luhan, seemingly snapping out of their trances. "I didn't think you'd actually get Luhan here." Baekhyun laughed.

          "So this Xiumin is the one who confessed to the famous idol Luhan..." Chanyeol murmured his thought aloud.

          "He is.~" Luhan cooed.

          "I only did it because we were in an interview." Minseok countered with a smile.

          "But you still love me."

          "I don't."

          "You do."

          "You're annoying..."

          A loud laugh from behind their small group broke the calm atmosphere that was surrounding them. "Wow Xiumin, I never thought you'd actually find someone to love you with that face of yours."

          Jongdae immediately tensed up while Luhan sent a glare to the person behind him from over his shoulder. "And who might you be?" He hissed.

          "Wu Yifan, but call me Kris." The tall male said with a cocky smile as he wrapped an arm around Junmyeon's side and brought him closer to him. "And this is my boyfriend Suho."

          He did not just go there. Minseok nearly snapped as Jongdae's face fell and yet he still tried to smile through it. Not even five minutes after he returned to the party with Luhan and Yifan is already starting his crap.

          "Lovely meeting you two." Luhan responded with a bright smile to Junmyeon and then gave a blank expression to Yifan. "But I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult my Baozi."

          "You call him steamed buns anyway so you see him as a fat little chipmunk to right?" Yifan asked with that damn smirk never leaving his lips.

          Minseok chuckled as he gave Yifan a fake smile. "Nice seeing you to asshole."

          Everything went quiet as Jongdae went ahead and pulled Luhan and Minseok away from the devil and angel couple. They did not need to be around that negativity. Though Minseok couldn't help but to give Jongdae a small pat on the back since it was obvious Yifan only came over there to rub in the fact he's dating Junmyeon and he won't let him go willingly.

          Minseok glanced over to Sehun and Zitao. The two were talking with the three boys he didn't know. It seems like the Ice Prince and Panda are getting along well. With a small wave, he caught Sehun's attention and gestured towards Jongdae before pointing towards the front door to Baekhyun's home. Sehun understood and gave him a small smile before going back to his conversation.

          Luhan looked to Minseok and then glanced over to Jongdae with a slightly confused look, silently asking what's wrong. Minseok only put a finger to his lips before directing Jongdae's attention to him.

          "You want to go home and watch Netflix while eating icecream?" He asked his still completely out of it roommate.

          Jongdae looked over to him and gave a small, weak smile. "What about Luhan? You should stay with him."

          "Don't worry about me, go on home with Xiumin." Luhan reassured. "I'll just hang out with Zitao and the prince guy he's flirting with."

          With a nod of his head, Jongdae began making his way towards the front door to Baekhyun's home. Minseok turned towards Luhan before following his roommate.

          With a smile, he gave the Chinese idol a quick hug. "Thanks for understanding Lu." He murmured.

          "He needs someone who understands him so it's fine Baozi, but can I get a kiss to make me feel better about you leaving me?" Luhan asked with a cute, innocent smile as he lent down slightly to place his cheek close to Minseok's face.

          A bright blush crept it's way up Minseok's cheeks as he quickly pecked Luhan's cheek and then scurried off to go catch up with Jongdae who was already waiting for him outside. He said a quick goodbye to Baekhyun before leaving. Minseok ended up walking with his arm around his roommates shoulders the entire way back to their apartment.

          With a sigh, Minseok eventually went to bed after making sure Jongdae was alright in his own room. He was not looking forward to the drama that's bound to come flying at him within the next couple of days...
