By the time we arrived to the kitchen, as expected, the cookies were already gone.

Well kind of. There was still one left.

Rest in piece my little precious cookies. And grandma makes such delicious ones, dammit. I'm not surprised though. Having 8 boys over my place, with an insane appetite should be expected.

"How- when did you even eat all of them? How can you eat so fast... Do you even chew the food you consume or you just swallow the whole thing down?", I asked amused.

"Oh well. You would be surprised.", Minho replied while chewing on his cookie.

Correction.

My cookie.

I was just being polite and offered them one. Turns out, that they took it for granted and ate the whole jar.

I don't usually share my food. Especial sweet things. I have a huge sweet tooth, so when it comes to dessert, I just want to eat it on my own. Selfish of me to do so, but hey, don't judge me.

But, on the other hand, I can't be selfish with them. They're just too precious to me and I would give them my kidney if I had to.

Well not exactly, but you get my point.

I'm not that mad after all.

"Oh look there's still one left, you can have it. But do it quickly or else it will be gone in no time.", Changbin warned me, while eyeing the rest of the group.

"Nah, Felix can have it. He didn't get to eat one and you all did, so it's fair if he has it.", I said and made my way to the kitchen table to clean the mess.

God how can they be so messy at times? The table is full of crumbs and chips of chocolate.

"No, it's yours. You eat it.", I heard Felix's deep voice from behind me.
I turned my head to face him and firmly shook my head, while saying 'no' to him. But he fought back.

And this, continued for sometime. We were childishly fighting over the cookie, like some 7-year-old kids.
"For the 100th time Felix I said you can have it, just eat it already.", I groaned in frustration and pushed the cookie out of my way.

Well at least, the rest 7 members seemed amused of the situation we were in, as they have been staring since the very begging. They even voted on who's gonna win the fight. Half of them said me and the others said Felix.

Oh God, I feel like I'm surrounded by immature kids.

Not like I'm not acting like one.

"Guys, I can just eat it if you're not going to.", Jisung offered with a raised hand.

"No!", me and Felix said simultaneously.
Oh, so now we agree on something?

"Jeez chill. I was just suggesting a solution here. You have been fighting over that cookie for like 5 minutes, like little kids. The poor cookie is left alone.", Jisung looked at the cookie with pity, pouting his lips as if the darn thing was a living species.

Is he for real?

Probably not.

Just then, Felix made his way to the table, grabbed the cookie and broke it in two. He then approached me and gestured me to take the one half.
"Here", he looked at me, "now we can both have it."

Well I'll admit, that was a smart move.

The rest of the day went by quickly. I didn't have much to do and since it was Sunday, I needn't to go to work. Most of the time, I was doing house chores. I had to keep the house clean after all. I showed the boys around the house and where they could sleep. Since I had two guest rooms with a double bed, I offered my parents room as well. I don't quite use it, since I have my own room. So now, Jeongin is staying with Jisung at one guest room, while the other one is occupied with Seungmin and Minho. Changbin with Hyunjin took my parents room, so now we are left with the two aussies.
