with mayako, yeeun, yunho,
hongjoong, and yeosang

narrator's pov.

"welcome to the party!" yunho shouted over the enormous crowd while standing on top of a table. the teens began to shout along to song lyrics and laugh loudly. "and merry christmas!"

yunho joined his friends wooyoung, san, mingi, yeosang, and hongjoong and (foolishly) took shots. they all had pretty high alcohol tolerances though, so they would be just fine.

yunho slammed his cup down and sighed, "suyong locked her bedroom door."

"kick it in, then." wooyoung said, hitting his arm playfully.

"i'm so frustrated, she's supposed to be hanging out with me," yunho put his head down and sighed.

"poor guy."

hongjoong said next, sighing, "mayako has never had a drink in her life. look at her now."

across the dim room, their girls stood in two little groups. nari and joha were the only stable ones after drinking. mayako was completely out of it, while yeeun hadn't even touched a glass somehow.

"where's my hongjoongie?" mayako yelled over the music, burping and clinging onto yeeun.

hongjoong sighed and looked down, "stop looking at me. i'm not going over there. why don't you go help her?"

all the guys started laughing in unison, hongjoong getting mad.

"because mayako is your girlfriend, idiot."

"unfortunately," hongjoong said, glancing at mayako.

his friends teased and poked him, "come on! it's your girl. go cure her hangover."

hongjoong scowled at them before walking through lots of people to collect mayako. she squealed instantly upon seeing him and instinctively threw her arms around him, snuggling onto him tight.

"mayako, get off me, you're drunk." hongjoong told her as she held onto his hand and did a little dance. "you look stupid, stop it."

yeeun giggle and shook her head, "it took two shots."

"jesus," hongjoong groaned.

he picked up mayako onto his back. mayako squeezed onto him and kissed his cheek repeatedly. hongjoong's frown started to fade as he turned to the side, looking at her.

"i love piggyback rides!" mayako beamed. hongjoong started to walk around and mayako had the time of her life. "and youuuu."

"ugh, love you too."

yeeun was left lonely at a small couch where she played on her phone to waste time. she wondered when yeosang would talk to her. a week or so of awkward encounters passed after she confessed, yeeun just wanted once to be normal again, so she came to the party.

she sat back and curiously watched the crowd of kids. her eyes searched for yeosang, and she eventually found him. he wasn't in a circumstance yeeun wanted to see him in, but she did find him.

hanyu and yeosang were arguing on the side of the dance floor. everytime they'd speak, the liquids in their cups would splash out.

they looked so hostile, and yeeun was worried. she hopped up and ran over.

she was too late to intervene before hanyu threw a punch at yeosang's jaw. things were getting so out of hand. yeosang paused and licked his bleeding lip before throwing punches back.

yeeun shouted as loud as she could, "stop it! stop, hanyu!"

hanyu threw yeosang to the ground, ignoring her completely. yeosang kicked hanyu's stomach, and they were soon both on the ground wrestling.

yeosang had hanyu where he wanted him and readied a final punch. he went to slam it down, but yeeun grabbed his fist from behind him and stopped him.

"yeeun!" yeosang yelled at her with pure anger in his voice. "what are you doing?"

"stop," she said quietly, staring at his bloody lips and bruises all over. she didn't know what else she could do, but wrap her arms around his waist and hug him.

yeosang didn't hug her back, "yeeun, stop, let me go!"

hanyu stood up again and flared his nostrils as he glanced at her, "you win. i'm going home,"

yeeun kept hugging him although he was angry. the crowd settled down, too.

yeosang sighed before turning around to hug her back and rest his chin on her head. "sorry. he told me he was gonna ask you out tonight, so..."

"you're drunk."

"maybe." yeosang sighed and pet her hair. "we should go home."
