CHEOLSOO (SEVENTEEN) Spy Game : The Love Edition ''The End''

......

Just as they were about to give up and retreat, the door creaked open slowly, and S.Coups appeared, leaning casually against the doorframe with a sly grin on his face.hair slightly disheveled and only in sweatpants and a satisfied grin on his face. The members jumped back, startled.

S coups

Did you enjoy the show, boys?

Every member froze, eyes widening in horror at being caught. Seungkwan’s mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water, while Vernon’s gaze darted from Scoups to the floor, clearly hoping he could somehow disappear.

few members couldn’t resist sneaking a peek past him into the room. Their eyes widened as they caught a glimpse of Joshua lying in bed, his peaceful expression starkly contrasting the chaos in the hallway

Joshua was nestled under the blanket, his face soft and serene, his features bathed in the gentle glow of a bedside lamp. His cheeks held a warm, rosy tint, the blush from earlier lingering on his skin. Dark lashes brushed against his cheeks, and his tousled hair framed his face, giving him an almost angelic look. Though the blanket was pulled up to his shoulders, it was clear he had nothing on beneath; the way the fabric clung to his frame left little to the imagination, adding a sense of intimacy and vulnerability to the scene

The members' reactions were almost comical. Seungkwan’s face turned scarlet as he glanced away, eyes wide with shock. Hoshi’s mouth dropped open, and he quickly threw a hand over it, as though even breathing too loudly might disturb Joshua. Vernon blinked, eyes darting from Joshua to Seungcheol

scoups cleared his throat, breaking their trance.

Hoshi

(Nervous chuckle) Uh… show? What show, hyung? We were just, um… passing by?

S coups

(smirking crossing his arms)Oh, just passing by? All of you? At the same time?

Woozi

(shifted uncomfortably, his face flushing)We, uh, just… wanted to make sure everything was… okay? (mumbled, clearly unsure if his words made any sense)

S coups

(shook his head slowly)Right. Because the middle of the night is the perfect time for a group check-in

Seungkwan

(jaw dropped)Hyung… how did you know?

S coups

(Smirk widening)How did I know? Really?

S coups

I’m your leader for a reason. I know everything that goes on with you lot

Jun

We really didn’t mean to… um… see anything?

Dino

Yeah, hyung! We were just… curious!

Dino

(Instantly regretted it, his face burning red as he tried to hide behind Seungkwan)

S coups

(rubbing his temples with exaggerated patience)Go back to your rooms

S coups

And try not to fall over each other while you’re at it

The command had an immediate effect. They stumbled over each other in a mad dash down the hallway, pushing and shoving as they scrambled away. Dino tripped over Seungkwan, who let out a yelp, and Hoshi nearly face-planted trying to keep up

As they scattered, Jeonghan lingered, smirking as he walked past Scoups

Jeonghan

Nice job, Leader-nim

Jeonghan

Guess you really do know us too well

With a wink, he strolled off, hands in his pockets as if he hadn’t been caught red-handed

Shaking his head in amusement, Scoups closed the door and returned to the bed, slipping under the covers beside a peacefully sleeping Joshua. As he settled in, Joshua stirred, his eyelids fluttering open just slightly.

Joshua

(murmured sleepily) Cheol…?

Joshua

(soft and drowsy voice) Were… were the kids spying?

cheol chuckled wrapping an arm around Joshua and pulling him closer His voice held a hint of laughter as he remembered their panicked faces.

S coups

Kids? They’re not exactly kids, are they?

Joshua

(mumbled still half-asleep) Mmm

Joshua

Big kids… nosy ones…

S coups

(smirked, brushing his thumb gently along Joshua’s cheek) You’re right about that. But I don’t think they’ll be snooping around here again anytime soon.

S coups

But Guess we gave them something to talk about

Joshua

Mm… let them talk…

shua voice trailed off as he fell back into sleep, a faint smile tugging at his lips as shua hand found its way to Scoups ’s chest, fingers curling against his skin as he drifted

With a quiet chuckle, Scoups pressed a soft kiss to Joshua’s forehead, holding him close as he drifted off, content in the warm stillness of the night.

Late that night, after everyone had returned to their rooms, the urge to dissect what they’d seen proved too tempting to ignore. One by one, the members quietly slipped out and gathered in Mingyu and DK’s room, far enough from Scoups’s that they could talk freely without worrying about getting caught. The room buzzed with excitement and nerves as they settled in, leaning close to keep their voices low.

As they settled into the room, wide-eyed and buzzing with disbelief, the8 flopped onto his bed, hands behind his head

Mingyu

Okay, can we just talk about how we saw Joshua?

Mingyu

(Pacing the small space with a hand on his forehead, still in disbelief)

Mingyu

He was just there, sleeping under that blanket, completely naked! I can’t get that image out of my head.

(sitting on the edge of his bed, nodded vigorously) It’s honestly so surreal. I thought I was going to burst into flames from how embarrassed I felt peeking in. It was so personal!

Seungkwan

(sitting on the floor with his legs crossed, buried his face in his hands)I thought I was going to die of embarrassment when I saw Joshua hyung sleeping under that blanket, looking all peaceful and… und..

Woozi

(interrupted, leaning back against the wall, arms crossed) Seriously, we should have known better than to spy on them.

Vernon

(Shivered at the memory) But seriously How did scoups hyung even know we were there?

Jeonghan

(Smirked from his spot on the bed, shaking his head knowingly) Because it’s Seungcheol. He reads us like an open book.

Hoshi

But it was fascinating, too

THE8

ya you r right Seeing Joshua hyung like that made me realize how comfortable he is with cheol hyung They really have something special

Wonwoo

But guys do you think shua hyung knows about Scoups’s hyung late-night work?

Just then, Jeonghan chuckled, causing the others to turn toward him. He was sitting cross-legged on the bed, a knowing smirk on his face

Jeonghan

Oh, Joshua definitely knows.

Vernon

Wait, what do you mean he knows?

Jeonghan

Let’s just say shua knows cheol better than any of us. He knows exactly what he’s signed up for

There was a stunned silence as the weight of Jeonghan’s words sank in. Dino leaned forward, looking puzzled and almost horrified

Dino

shua Hyung is just… cool with it?

Jeonghan

(Laughed softly'clearly enjoying their reactions) Of course he is. You guys don’t give Joshua enough credit He’s not as innocent as you think. He’s known scoups and believe me, he’s more than capable of handling him

Jun

(relief washing over him) right

Jun

I can’t imagine Joshua being in the dark about any of that. He’s too perceptive.

Wonwoo

Yeah, it makes sense

Mingyu

But now we’re probably going to pay for our little spy mission. I can just feel it.

Seungkwan

(groaned dramatically) Don’t remind me! Scoups hyung is definitely going to punish us in the morning. We completely overstepped!

Dino

(groaned flopping back onto the bed) I don’t even want to think about it. I just hope he goes easy on us

Jeonghan

(chuckles looking at everyone) Don’t get your hopes up. This is scoups we’re talking about. He’s going to make sure we remember this for a long time.

THE8

Well, we better get some sleep, I guess. We’re going to need all the energy we can get if we’re going to survive tomorrow.

The others murmured in agreement, reluctantly getting up and shuffling back to their respective rooms. But as they settled into bed, the uneasy feeling didn’t go away. Instead, it weighed heavily on each of them, a reminder of the consequences awaiting them in the morning
