@α┊lee dongwook Exhaustion....it drowned him slowly but surely, the melancholy aura of the night surrounding Mingyu as if he was being trapped into his own world.
Blankly staring up at the night sky that dazzled with stars, contemplating whether he should just crash at a friends house. Real question- what friend? No one knew what he did at night for the most part and he preferred it that way.

'Creek' - the subtle sound of a door opening is heard from behind him as his body naturally falling backwards to lie on his back. Late reaction on his drunken part. "What the -" He groaned in annoyance, his eyes blinking a few times as his vision is hazed. A face- he semi- recognized but didn't all at once. Who was this? Why were they here? Nonetheless- he just wanted inside.
With that thought in mind, Mingyu forces himself up; with a bit of struggle holding onto the door frame with one hand for support.
"Move...please-" He asked in a cold tone, brushing passed the figure to hopefully find a bed or sofa to lie down on. He needed to relax from the rough beating he got tonight. Caramel colored irises scan the blurry room to finally glance back to the stranger.
"Got any rubbing alcohol and Q tips? It'll help with the pain a little."

@β┊kim mingyu While in the bathroom rubbing moisturizer into his skin as the final step in his skincare routine, Dongwook heard several noises. Normally relaxed brows furrowing in confusion. Maybe the police? But would they knock so roughly? Dongwook couldn’t think of anything he may have gotten in trouble for, unless it was reading too many good books. He amused himself with the thought.

Precaution in mind, he steps out of the bathroom, into the kitchen, then living room and eventually into the entry way of his home. The pounding now just incessant knocks that are slowing down, like a Beethoven piece that has wrapped up its most intense chorus before the end. Whomever was on the other side had to be drunk, it was the only thing he could think of. He attempts to peek out the peephole but is only met with the darkness of the night and first few steps of his home. There was a dimly lit street light that only illuminated the area within its bubble, so it wasn’t of much help.

Without wasting much more of the night, he flicks on the porch light, unlocks the heavy wooden door, and pulls it open. Not expecting to see what he had within the next few moments of simply opening his front door.

@α┊lee dongwook Hazy...Mingyu's vision is blurred as he stumbles his way up a few front porch steps. Bruised lips, swollen face, cut up hands that his boxing wraps were barely hanging on- he fumbled with a pair of keys as he struggled to unlock the front door. Annoying, he thought. His patience thin in the moment but after a few tries he let out a loud annoyed groan prior to falling onto the floor.
He pressed his back up against the wooden door, dazed eyes staring up at the night sky while raising one hand up in a balled fist-

THONK THONK!
He is pounding on the door, frustrated.
"ing open up....stupid door..." The words sinked with anger; his lovely brows furrowed in the moment. Why did he lose.....those thoughts kept lingering repeatedly in his mind. But the other part of him knew that he needed to get inside before someone who knew him, caught him in this state. It would not end well for him.
! He mentally shouted, the rough knocking slowing down as he was about to give up and call it a night on the porch.
