"but it'll be WAY too much work . and i'm now scared about joshua ." i sighed and took a sip of the water .

"it'll be manageable ." seungcheol nodded as he got a call from the ceo . because the ceo had wanted seungcheol to put it on speaker - knowing i was there - was a little intimidating .

ceo : yoon jeonghan what the FUCK was those rumours ?

jeonghan : well it's not even true .

ceo : do you think the antis will even give a fuck ?

seungcheol : i assure you that the rumours is a lie .

ceo : seungcheol you stay out of this .

seungcheol : no . he's my brother and he's the person i knew the longest .

ceo : fine . i'll go and get one of the staffs to write a statement . jeonghan , i expect one from you .

jeoghan : alright alright .

i rolled my eyes when the call ended , grabbing my phone from my back pocket and starting to type out a note in korean . i would get joshua to help me translate it , so i didn't have to painfully sit through typing - then writing - broken english , since half the time i didn't understand a word vernon said , and international carats always helped me translate properly in the comments . joshua did understand korean , thankfully , so i didn't have to go up a floor to disturb the living hell out of vernon - who definitely hated it when i had to get him to translate things for me .

"goddamn." i muttered , continuing to type the letter , and passing it to seungcheol for him to inspect after i was done .

"hm . it looks okay . where's josh ? i thought he'd come with you - wait nevermind don't ." he froze mid sentence , finally noticing my dishevelled hair . "come on ... IT'S ONLY FIVE IN THE AFTERNOON !"

"shut up you've had sex with woozi and chan at 7 am before . either or . don't think we don't know ." i replied as he hid his head in shame .

"go . go . you don't have anymore reason to be in this apartment ." seungcheol muttered and i grabbed my phone from his hands and left his apartment , going back to joshua's .

"this is going to be a hell of a week ." i rolled my eyes again and unlocked the door with my key , locking it when i got inside and going back to joshua .

he was still lying on the bed naked , sleeping . i walked to the bathroom and turned on the tap , which flowed water into the bathtub , and when it filled up to a perfect amount and at the perfect temperature , i walked back to the bed and placed joshua in the bathtub , taking off my own clothes and placing joshua on my lap . i could see him uncomfortably shifting around , so i let go and let him shift into the position he liked .

"it's just me ." i confirmed when he drowsily opened his eyes .

he nodded and placed his head at my shoulder , as i slowly reached for the shampoo and started to massage his head while he was still half asleep . he had woken up a little when i carried him to the bathtub , but i just let him be in his drowsy state.

the next day

"morning shuji ." i smiled at him when he woke up . i was on my laptop (as i was probably in his apartment more than mine , i left most of my things there .) writing the letter - or copying the letter - onto a piece of paper . "i know you're tired , but i need you to translate something ."

"it's fine , doesn't matter ." he snuggled into my hoodie grabbing his own laptop from beside his bed and asking me to text him the full letter , as he copied it into his notes and continued lounging on the bed while translating the letter for me . "what's it for ?"
