one particularly boring day in the monsta x dorm, minhyuk was sitting alone in the living room. the rest of the guys had schedules, but minhyuk had gotten a head start on his schedules and was already done. so there he was, sitting and wishing he had something to do.
a t-shirt on the floor caught his attention. "this dorm would be a disaster if it wasn't for kihyun," said minhyuk as he picked up the shirt and tossed it onto the couch. for some reason, doing that made him feel fulfilled, like he suddenly had a purpose in life. "maybe i should do come cleaning. i'm bored, anyways, and kihyun is always nagging at us to clean. i might as well help out before he loses it."
and so minhyuk began cleaning the dorm, going from room to room and picking up any clothes that were on the floor. all he could think about the whole time was how he couldn't wait to see the look on kihyun's face when he found their dorm spotless.
when minhyuk got to his room, which he shared with hoseok, he started cleaning on hoseok's side of the room first. he picked up a few clothes and threw them into their laundry basket, but then turned his attention to their closet. a pile of clothes was on the floor, both minhyuk's and hoseok's. on the very top there were clothes that were too dirty to hang up but too clean to wash. minhyuk moved those to the side, since he knew they would still wear those eventually, and moved on to the clothes that were more towards the bottom. those were clothes that neither minhyuk nor hoseok had worn in ages. minhyuk decided to go through the pile and pick out clothes that they could still wear.
"that's too small, that's too small. this is," he picked up a t-shirt that he hadn't seen since their predebut days, "horrendous." minhyuk tossed the clothes into two piles: things that could be saved and things he had no hope for. the first pile was the biggest.
minhyuk continued to search through the pile when he spotted a fluffy, blue material. he grabbed it and pulled it out, confusion over taking his face. it was a cookie monster hat.
he sat back and examined the hat, confusion still written all over his face.
"i didn't know hoseok was into sesame street," he started, chuckling a bit. "thats cute."
he moved the hat to the side and was about to continue going through the pile when he heard the door to the dorm open and close.
"is anyone home?" he heard hoseok yell.
"in here!" he yelled back.
hoseok waltzed into the room with a smile, though, it dropped as soon as he saw the hat sitting next to minhyuk.
"hi!" minhyuk said cheerfully after giving hoseok a quick peck on the lips.
"what're you doing?" hoseok asked. his eyes were slightly widened and his palms were getting sweaty.
"just going through old clothes, why?"
hoseok just shook his head. "just wondering. hey if you want i can take over doing that. by the look of the dorm you've been cleaning quite a lot."
in all honesty, hoseok didnt want to go through the pile. he just wanted minhyuk away from it before he could find anything else.
"no no its fine! i'm actually kind of motivated." the red head laughed. "besides, you should relax. you've been out doing things all day."
minhyuk was about to lift another item from the pile when hoseok grabbed his arms.
"what are you doing?" minhyuk asked.
"really, why don't you let me do it? you've been cleaning all day." hoseok smiled but it looked a bit too awkward. minhyuk could sense something was up.
