Chapter One:

Ain't No Rest for the Wicked- Cage the Elephant

"Finally its all done and over with." Minho exclaimed while falling back onto the small twin bed in their dorm. "I hope I never have to do that ever again."

Taemin giggled from the other side of the room. "Minho, that was only the midterm, you still are going to have to take the final at the end of the semester—"

"Oh shut it you." Minho said while pulling himself over to lie on his side to see the other boy. Taemin giggled some more and picked up the pillow that had landed on the bed before tossing it back at the lazy test taker.

"Don't get huffy, now at least we can look forward to spring break right? It will be so much fun to go back home and see mom and dad."

"Minnie, you're so adorable sometimes."

"What?" Taemin blushed, "it's not like you aren't excited to go back and see Onew too…" Minho smiled at him.

"Minnie, Minnie, Minnie, Minnie, what are we going to do with you?"

"You are going to deal with it and have lots and lots of fun seeing everyone back home." Taemin smiled, it really would be so much fun to see everyone. "Hey, we should celebrate though! Midterms are over and by the end of the week we will be back at home."

"You know? That sounds like a great idea, race you to the car!"

"Minho! You ass, get back here you cheater!" The two boys booked it down the halls of the dorms and out to the student parking.

"So Minnie, this was your great idea, where do you want to go?" Minho asked once they got settled in his car. Taemin sat for a while thinking before a big smile pulled across his face.

"Lets go to the beach!" Minho gave him a look.

"You always want to go to the beach Minnie, can't we go somewhere else?" Minho exclaimed.

"But Minho," Taemin pulled his best puppy dog eyes, "pretty please!"

"Fine, but you owe me Min, we are totally going to the zoo back home."

"Awe Minho, you ruin my fun, but okay." The banter continued when one of them finally got the idea to turn on the radio. "Ah Minho, I love this song!" Taemin squealed.

"I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye I saw a pretty little thing approaching me." The guys voice over the speakers was soon lost behind the loud squawking of Taemin. "She said, 'I never seen a man who looked so alone, oh could you use a little company?'"

Minho couldn't help but smile as his ears started to ring from the loud, obnoxious singing coming from his right. Taemin had always gone into his own little world when a song he liked would play and no one could ever really get him to stop.

"There ain't no rest for the wicked, money don't grow on trees! I got bills to pay! I got mouths to feed! Ain't nothing in this world for free!"

Minho's lips twitched and he smiled even wider; this was the guy that he devoted all of his free time to, this was his best friend. Taemin's voice got louder and louder, but both boys were completely oblivious to the stares they were getting from their fellow commuters.

Finally they came to a red light just as Taemin belted out another chorus verse. Minho laughed and chimed in for the last line with Taemin, "there ain't no rest for the wicked, until we close our eyes for good!"

Taemin blushed as he realized his little singing spell, but he couldn't help the smile that just wouldn't leave his face. "Eh, sorry Minho, I guess I just got carried away again."

Minho finally came down from his laughing streak and smiled. He leaned over, pulled Taemin in and planted a big kiss on his cheek. "No worries Minnie, we all love you for it."

Taemin turned redder, "yeah, yeah, yeah Froggy, just keep telling me that."

Minho chucked and sent a flick to the other boy's head, "Don't get sassy now boy, we still have a ten minute drive to the beach and that leaves me with tons of time to torture you with some of my lovely singing!"

"What ever you say Froggy." Taemin laughed as he dodged another flick to the head.

"And I thought you promised to never call me that again!"

"Payback Froggy!"

"Minnie!" They laughed some more. It was going to be a long car ride.
