Chapter 1: The games that should not be named

Chapter Text


One year after the horrific games. Gyeongsu, Minsu, Namgyu, Thanos, and Semi had all survived and kept in contact after the games had ended.

SEMI

Picking up a cup of coffee, Semi scrolled through her phone. Lips pressing into a firm line, she opened the group chat with her allies from the games.

She had realised that she kind of missed her friends- even Namgyu that pain in the ass, but after the games were over, they had made up and ended their rivalry.

NAMGYU

He and Thanos had been sitting together on the other man’s bed. They were talking about what they would do after the games, when Thanos had suggested that they should move in together.

Namgyu looked up at the purple haired man at the thought. “Really, Hyung?”

“Fuck yeah!” Thanos yelled in English, and Namgyu beamed up at him. At the time he hadn’t realised how hard living with Thanos would be.

———————————

“Dude, you seriously haven’t fucking started packing yet?” 

Thanos’ only answer was to shrug. Namgyu sighed, “I’m heading to Gyeongsu’s place- Minsu’s there too, are you coming?”

Semi had told them a week before that she was organising a road trip for the five of them tomorrow.

Thanos pulled out his keys, “sure, I’ll drive you there.”

He didn’t realise it, but Namgyu’s heart fluttered.

GYEONGSU

“Uno! I win!” 

“That’s not how you play…”

He was playing card games with Minsu, when they were interrupted by a knock at his door. “Must be Namgyu,” Gyeongsu guessed, standing up and opening the door.

“What’s up? My boy, Gyeongsu!” Thanos grinned, hugging Gyeongsu tight. “Missed you, too,” Gyeongsu patted his back, but it came out like, “mmf oo tooh.”

“Hey guys,” Minsu smiled, walking over. Namgyu emerged from behind of Thanos, taking his eyes away from his phone in hand. “Hey Gyeongsu, Minsu, I texted Semi, she’ll be here in ten.”

Gyeongsu grinned, throwing him a thumbs up as Namgyu glanced behind of them. “Were you guys playing Uno?”

“Boring,” Thanos stated, checking his nails. “Want to watch a movie while we wait for Semi?”

“You fucking idiot,” Gyeongsu laughed. Thanos raised an eyebrow. “Semi’s going to be here at ten,” Minsu told the older man, “I’ll cook some ramen, you guys can continue the game.”

“I’ll help you,” Namgyu said, awkwardly. He had been trying to be more nicer to Semi and Minsu since the games- something they don’t talk about anymore. 

“I hate card games anyways, I’d start raging halfway through.” Minsu laughed a little at that.

————————————-

Gyeongsu’s door bell ringed. Thanos turned his head as Gyeongsu got up from doing their dishes to open the door.

“Sup bitches,” Semi walked in and plopped herself on the couch. Namgyu smacked her arm. Gyeongsu noticed it and smiled. “Don’t worry about it,” He laughed, “she basically lives here now.” 

Namgyu let out a small “oh”, and Minsu patted him on the arm, reassuringly.

Thanos laughed. “No need to get so embarrassed, Namsu.”

“It’s Namgyu,” he reminded him, face flushed as he hid his hands with his sleeves- a nervous habit Thanos recognised from the games- but he didn’t sound too annoyed, “how many times do I have to re-”

“Have you guys finished packing?” Semi interrupted him, most likely trying to break tension.

Gyeongsu and Namgyu both replied, “yes” in unison while Minsu nodded, but Thanos just stared at the ex-player. “Pack what?”

Semi stared at him, pissed.

“Bitch, I reminded you a thousand times!” Namgyu laughed, reaching up to smack the older boy’s head.

Semi sighed, shaking her head but smiling. “Tomorrow 9am on the roads, better start cramming.” She put her hands on her hips, as if telling a naughty toddler off.

Thanos smirked. ”Of course, señorita.”

“Noona, crammings for studying,” Gyeongsu chuckled, lightly. “The fuck, it’s not, google it you dumbass.”
