“Oh, come on!” Sehun jerked awake at the yell in the living room. He groaned as he looked around, confused. “You’ve got to be kidding me!”
“Calm down, Ja Kyeong…” he heard Junmyeon say. Sehun sat up and stood, stumbling slightly as he made his way to his bedroom door and into the living room. He yawned before sitting on the couch next to his girlfriend.
“What’s going on?”
“The ref didn’t make the call!” Sehun looked at Ja Kyeong before reaching for the remote. The resulting ice glare made him pause. He was not the usual recipient of the ice glare – Baekhyun’s girlfriend or her brother, on the other hand... Needless to say, he froze in his reach.
“Why are you so heated up? That isn’t your team.”
“Yeah, but the winner will be playing us next.”
“You mean, your team. You won’t be playing. You can thank your current health condition for that.”
“No one would have even considered benching me…if not for your fat mouth…” She slowly turned to look at him. “Maybe I should have stayed at my apartment instead of coming to hang out with you. Actually, I think I am going to leave –” She shrieked as Sehun pulled her back onto the couch.
“Nice try. And it wasn’t my fat mouth.”
“Then whose fat mouth?” Sehun kept his mouth shut. “So the blame remains solely on you.” She refocused on the tv. “Ok! Seriously?!” She grabbed her phone and Sehun rolled his eyes.
“Is she always like this?” Junmyeon asked. Sehun shrugged.
“Never really paid all that much attention to her reactions during the games, to be honest. Too busy defending myself with Baekhyun and Minseok at my shoulders.”

Prompt: “Whoa. That’s not how it happened.” -- @challengingwords prompt #53
Pairing: Yoon Jeonghan x female reader (ft. Woozi)
Genre: fluff / brother’s best friend trope
Warnings: light cursing, protective brother, Y/N has a nightmare
Word count: 1321
“You’re back earlier than expected,” your brother Jihoon announced as you stormed into your shared apartment, the sound of the front door slamming shut behind you rattling both men on the couch.
You drew up short when you saw Jihoon’s best friend Jeonghan next to him, groaning out loud at the cruelty of the universe. On the one evening where you wanted to throw a shit fit and be uncaring of how you did so, of course, Jeonghan was here.
And because he was your longest crush, you swallowed down the excessive nature of your rage. You were still simmering, however, and threw your bag down on the entryway stand. “I got stood up.”
“Y/N was on a date?” Jeonghan enquired, looking between you and your sibling for clarification. You wanted him to look disappointed, not interested.
Jihoon’s eyes narrowed. “I thought it was a study group.”
“It was. It was meant to be. Instead, they went to see a movie that came out today. Without me.”
“If you know that, then they didn’t stand you up, Y/N. They just changed their plans,” your brother reiterated, rolling his eyes at your theatrics. “Which sucks, but it happens.”
“They didn’t tell me. I waited outside in the freezing cold for an hour before I stumbled over an Instagram story of the two of them at the movies together.”
“Harsh,” Jeonghan commented before patting the empty spot beside him. “Can we help cheer you up? We’ve got popcorn and a movie on.”
You eyed the tempting offer. Normally, you wouldn’t hesitate, even with Jihoon’s not so subtle sighing that meant he wanted to spend time without his little sister interrupting it. But you were too dejected and knew your mood would ruin any type of company you attempted to keep.
“It’s okay, I’ll just go brood in my room.”
“They’re dicks, so don’t dwell on it for too long,” Jihoon commiserated, and you gave him a half-smile before trudging into your bedroom.
At some point, you must have fallen asleep. You startled awake from a nasty nightmare and would have fallen off your bed had a warm hand not reached out to save you. You shrieked, which was instantly muffled by another hand. “It’s me, Y/N. Calm down.”
“…Jeonghan?” your grogginess evaporated as you stared at the man before checking yourself over to make sure you were decent.
“God, why would you even inspect yourself like that when it’s just me?” he murmured, removing his hands from you, and rubbing the back of his neck. “You know you’re safe around me.”
“I wasn’t… I didn’t… wait. Why are you in here in the first place? You know Jihoon would kick your butt if he ever found the two of us alone. He’s always talking about how he can’t even get a moment’s peace when we’re together. And that’s when he’s in the room. I doubt he’s—”
“The fact that your brother is ridiculously protective of you even around his longest friend is not something I want to get into at two in the morning.”
You arched an eyebrow at him in wild assumption, and Jeonghan hissed reproachfully. “Y/N, I don’t want to get into that either. I heard a noise coming from in here and came to check on you. Are you alright?”
Aside from being mortified that you so boldly rejected me just now, I’m peachy, you thought whilst feebly nodding. “What was the noise?”
“It sounded like someone was in here hurting you. You were whimpering and begging for help. I noticed it was a bad dream, so I shook you awake.”
“Oh.” You were thankful that Jeonghan hadn’t turned on the lights because you felt a flush make its way over your body. “You couldn’t sleep again?”
He smiled wryly. “You know more about my insomnia than your brother does.”
“We each have our roles in your life. I’m your friend too,” you reminded, and his lips grew into a smile.
“You are.” Sitting down next to you on your bed, Jeonghan stretched out his long legs before nudging you. “Was it a scary dream?”
“Yeah.”
“Want to talk about it?”
Glancing at him, you sighed. “Not really. I just feel cold right now.”
Jeonghan’s arm instantly wrapped around your shoulder, and you nestled into his side. “Let me warm you back up.”
“Jihoon will—”
“He’s asleep. And he’ll never know,” Jeonghan announced firmly, your body already relaxing against him. Perhaps you were still too exhausted to care about Jihoon finding you wrapped up in Jeonghan’s embrace, closing your eyes and listening to his even breathing.
The morning arrived, and you felt far too hot for being just under your thin blanketing. Opening your eyes, you gasped when you realised you had fallen asleep with Jeonghan. He was still sleeping, his arms around you, holding you to his chest. Biting back a smile, you gazed at him, soaking in this rare opportunity.
“Did you seduce him in here?” a quiet voice asked, and you flinched, Jeonghan’s arms wrapping around you more tightly to settle you, exhaling a small murmur as he continued to rest.
You diverted your attention to Jihoon leaning against the doorjamb with a cup of coffee held in his hand.
“Whoa. That’s not how it happened.”
“He seduced you then?” Jihoon asked, taking a sip of his drink.
“What? No! You know he would never.”
Jihoon snorted. “I’ve been cockblocking him for years from you.”
“What?!” you squeaked out and blinked several times. Questions rallied to the surface of your mind, but you didn’t get a chance to ask them when Jeonghan finally stirred awake.
“You both going to keep talking about me as if I’m not in the room? I swear. You Lee siblings are the worst for holding conversations without including all parties in the same vicinity.”
“I wasn’t wanting to talk to you, merely about you,” Jihoon sardonically replied, shaking his head before walking out of the room.
You and Jeonghan stared after his departure before you turned to look at one another, stunned. “Did he just… leave us alone after finding us together?”
“Yeah,” you breathed out and then slumped into the bedding. “Because he trusts you to do the right thing.”
“The right thing by his books is to not even look at you,” Jeonghan pointed out, his hand reaching to smooth some of your bed hair away from your face. He seemed fascinated to do it, as if he never had the chance to look at you first thing in the morning before. And whilst he had seen you many times over the years, you guessed this was the closest moment he’d had. His lips moved into a lazy, satisfied smile. “He knows I do that all too often, though.”
“I’m not following you,” you admitted, and Jeonghan exhaled a deep breath.
“He wasn’t lying, Y/N. He has been putting himself between us for years.”
“Yeah but, you don’t—”
Leaning in to softly brush his lips against your cheek, Jeonghan watched as a dazed expression swept away your confusion. “I do. I have always liked you.”
“You have?”
“And I know you—”
“Okay, I tried. I really did,” Jihoon suddenly returned through the open door, breathing a little heavily. “If you’re going to have this heart to heart, I need to not be here. But the idea of it happening whilst you’re still in bed is doing me in, so, get out. Both of you.”
“What?!”
Jeonghan laughed heartily, prying himself away from your body, leaving you cold without him as he walked across the room. He patted Jihoon on the shoulder before looking back at you. “You’re right. This has been a long time coming. I’ll take your sister out for a breakfast date then. Will you be okay with that, Jihoon?”
“I—hey, I didn’t—”
You beamed at Jeonghan’s cheeky expression. “It’s a date.”
