It was Niki's first time in Thailand. He instantly fell in love of the warm weather and the warm welcome of their fans. After settling on their hotels, they have to do their live to give an update for their fans.
Niki is just sitting at the very corner, holding the phone to monitor the comments of their lives. However, he's attention was caught by someone who sitting on his opposite end. Niki took his time observing Sunoo through the phone. He can sense that his hyung is now bored, and his mind is probably exploring somewhere else. He observed him a little longer, 'cold Sunoo' has definitely appeared, although his hyung looks cool and handsome, he much preferred his bright personality over this, and he's sure that some of the fans might start something unnecessary because his hyung is not smiling or something.
He started giving attention to Sunoo, trying to make him laugh by copying Jay. Copying the way he talks just to make him laugh. Niki felt accomplished, he could not be happier than seeing his hyung participating on their conversation and laughing alongside with them.
That is until a certain movie was mentioned on the comment section. "Has anyone seen the Avatar 2?" Jake asks them, ofcourse Niki knows they don't have the free time for this yet, so he expected everyone to decline it and move on to the next topic. "I have" was uttered in tiny by Sunoo which actually shocked Jungwon and Niki. Niki keeps on asking when did he watch it, but his hyung only smiles at him and the topic was changed already.
That bothered Niki all through out their live but he didn't make it obvious, he carried on being his normal self until their live ended.
-----------------------------------
Enhypen is now back to each of their hotel rooms, having done with dinner and was about to head out to retire for the day. Niki whkse still bothered, decided to confront his hyung about the Avatar 2 movie.
He went to Sunoo's room and was about to knock when he heard a voice inside. "what actually happened was that she thought that the main character is trying to get revenge on her daughter, but isn't that absurd hyung? She's definitely not evil enough to hurt a child. I mean--" and he knocks.
"Sunoo hyung?" he entered the room, he can see Sunoo in his vanity table, applying some essence on his face. "Oh Niki-yah" said by the second voice. Niki stared at him for a while, "why are you in Sunoo's room?" "Oi, I could ask the same thing". At this point, he's not even sure if he's shock to see Sunghoon in Sunoo's room. It has been known that whenever Sunoo's in there, Sunghoon is probably at the background just lurking somewhere. Niki just rolled his eyes at Sunghoon.
He went straight to Sunoo's bed where Sunghoon was seated. "Hyuuung, you still haven't answered my question earlier. I want to watch the movie with you and Jungwon. I've already bought the tickets and now your telling me you've already seen it? It was hard to get that ticket, hyuuuuung" he whines to Sunoo while rolling on his bed and casually hitting Sunghoon's thigh with his hands.
Sunoo laughed at this, "Sorry, hmm? I didn't know you were planning to watch it with me. But you still have Jungwon, maybe you should watch it together?" the older replied. "But, I want to watch it with you" he sulkly replied. He was really looking forward on watching the film with Sunoo, he can already imagine the endless discussion they're gonna have after watching it, so knowing that the older has already seen it upsets him big time.
"Who did you even go with? Was it even fun? I bet you were bored halfway" he sulks more. This statement causes Sunoo to laugh out loud. Sunoo being done with his night time skin care routine, sat on the bed with the two. "Oi, I can only handle one sulking person tonight. The other person might misunderstood you're statement". Niki was confused by this, he looked at Sunoo whose smiling coyly and trying to side eye Sunghoon. He looked at Sunghoon who's looking at his phone, but he could easily read how his hyung is listening not so subtly to their conversation.
Niki abruptly stand up from lying down, pointing at his two hyungs on the bed, feeling betrayed for the second time that night. "You watched it together didn't you? Why did I even question it? Ofcourse it's you Sunghoon hyung! Why do you always take Sunoo hyung's time? Ughhhh." now both of his hyung's are laughing at him. "You know just for that, I'll sleep here with Sunoo hyung" he stated firmly while stomping his feet.
Sunghoon just smirked at him, arranging his position and laying lazily on Sunoo's bed, "Already called dibs on this one Niki, try again next time, yeah?" his hyung even had the audacity to wink at him. He heard Sunoo laughing at them.
"You know what, how about it would just be me on my room tonight? I think I would really like that. So go now both of you, shoo" Sunoo ushered both of them out. They were now complaining, each person telling Sunoo their reasons but he's not having any of it.
He found himself in front of a locked door beside Sunghoon.
Both of them looked lost for a moment before retrieving to their own rooms without a single words being uttered.
Well atleast Sunghoon hyung didn't stay with Sunoo hyung for the night, he reasoned out.
