Changbin was the first to get up again. He first brought Chans and his stuff to the bedroom and then stowed away the shopping in the kitchen.

The ice cream they had bought for Jisung already felt quite muddy in the paper cup, but Changbin put it in the freezer shrugging the shoulder.

After this was also done, he stood in the kitchen for a moment and looked around. He would have liked to have something to do. Or a drink in his hand.

But he didn't know if it would be conducive to get drunk right now. Although he really felt like it.

Sighing, he returned to the living room where Minho and Chan were about to get up from the sofa.

"Hey pretty," he murmured and attracted Jisung to himself.

He knew Minho wanted to go out to smoke and he tried to distract Jisung as much as possible.

Minho had stopped smoking for Jisung years ago. But there were moments when he just couldn't cope without it.

"We'll be right back," Chan whispered to Changbin and then left the apartment together with Minho.

Jisung looked after the two, but said nothing. He knew what Minho was up to, but couldn't even blame him.

He himself would have liked to have had something to forget the past few days at least for a moment.

He shook his head disheartenedly and then snuggled up on Changbin.

"Binnie?"

"Yes, honey?"

"Can we do something that distracts a bit? I don't really want to think about the past few days all the time."

"Okay and what were you thinking about?" Changbin asked curiously, but Jisung just shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know?" he said with a crooked grin on his lips.

"We could- we could get drunk," Changbin said with a grin, "But I don't know what the two oldies will think of it."

Jisung shrugged his shoulders again, got up and pulled Changbin into the kitchen with him.

From some party, they still had a considerable supply of alcohol in the kitchen.

Changbin raised his eyebrows with a grin.

"Well, you seem to have plans little one."

"Yes, I have."

The two grabbed two bottles Soju each and went back to the living room.

Once there, Jisung grabbed the remote control and looked for a movie for which you could drink shots while Changbin ran back into the kitchen and got glasses.

"Finding Nemo or Harry Potter as a drinking game?"

He looked pondering at Changbin, who just came back into the living room.

"Finding Nemo! Just not Harry Potter again!" he almost screamed.

"Ok, ok, fine!" Jisung said with a laugh.

They cuddled side by side on the sofa and Jisung started the film.

"So, the rules are actually quite simple, always drink one when Nemo is said."

Changbin looked at him in amazement.

"We'll be pretty much done after it..."

Jisung nodded with a grin.

"That's the plan!"

He filled their glasses and pressed one into Changbins hand.

Shortly afterwards, they heard the front door open and Chan and Minho come in. For seconds, both thought about hiding their glasses and the Soju, but they left it.

Chan came straight into the living room while Minho disappeared in the bathroom.

"What are you up to?"

"Well, what does it look like, baby?" Changbin replied with a grin.

"Go get a glass grandpa and stop worrying all the time!" said Jisung.

Chan hesitated for a moment, but then came to the conclusion that he couldn't stop the two anyway.

Sighing, he went into the kitchen and got two more glasses and two bottles of Soju Minho liked to drink.

Once back in the living room, he dropped on the sofa next to Changbin and filled his glass while Jisung and Changbin were drinking the next shot.

"Rules?"

"A shot every time Nemo is said."

Chan was just as amazed as Changbin before.

"Ok, let's go."

At that moment, Minho came into the living room and looked at them in disbelief.

"Drinking feast?"

The others nodded and Minho dropped himself on the sofa next to Jisung.

When Jisung drank alcohol, there were two versions of him. Either the happy crazy Jisung or the deeply sad one.

Not that Minho had anything against drinking alcohol, but he was a bit worried about how Jisung would be doing.

But the youngest wordlessly squeezed a filled glass into his hand and kissed him.

Minho shook his head, but had to smile.

Maybe it was a way to think about something different at least for an evening.

Jisung had cuddled close to him and had already taken some shots. Like all of them, but Minho had taken care not to fill his glass too much if the others hadn't paid attention to it.

Giggling, Jisung followed the scene as Nemo tried to escape from the dentist's aquarium.

Minho shook his head with a grin.

The evening had come differently than he expected, but all the more beautiful.

Minho carefully broke away from Jisung, got up and went to the kitchen. Lunch was a while ago and according to the amount of alcohol they had already drunk, they would be quite done if they won't eat anything for dinner.

He ordered two large pizzas and then returned to the living room.

Changbin was desperately trying to take off his sweater, but in his more than a little drunken condition, it's quite difficult for him.

Laughing, Minho helped him and then sat down next to Jisung again.

Just when the movie ended, the doorbell rang. The other three were frightened, but Minho just ran to the door and took the pizza.

As if they hadn't gotten to eat for ages, the others jumped on the pizza while Minho watched them laughing.

Eventually they had eaten up, the Soju bottles were empty and Jisung and Chan were about to fall asleep.

"Let's go to bed!"

Minho pulled Jisung up and carried him more into the bedroom than the younger one went there.

Changbin stood undecided in the living room and looked after him.

"And us?"

"You're coming too!" Minho shouted to him and was just able to prevent Jisung from landing on the floor instead of on the bed.

Chan and Changbin followed and both fluctuated quite a bit. Chan immediately crawled to Jisung in the middle of the bed and cuddled up to him.

Minho and Changbin looked at each other with a grin and then lay down at the edge of the bed.
