First off, thank you for the 5K! I'm really glad you guys are enjoying the oneshots, I'll keep writing as long as you want me to!

Now enjoy this fluffy Dongpyo centered oneshot.

_______________

Being in a group with 10 other members is surely a guarantee of never ending entertainment. There was always someone awake, playing around, there was always someone to talk to. But that doesn't mean members don't have friends outside of the group. And a specific short younger member had many.

Dongpyo is certainly someone who got attention from the very start. With his cute personality and looks it's almost impossible not to fall for the young cute member. And many idols agreed to that. A specific group had become quickly very attached to the younger, and when they had the opportunity to meet it was basically a party.

Right at the last days of promotion for flash and really close to Dongpyo's birthday, Astro had also made a comeback. As they met backstage, Dongpyo noticed some members kept looking at him. So he just smiled and waved, winking as an habit as well. The other group smiled brightly, Sanha and MJ having a bit more of a dramatic reaction. Saying the younger was cute would be an understatement.

As promotions kept going by, they met more often, Astro members soon approaching to strike small conversations and they soon started being friends. Astro did get close to other members as well, Rocky and Hangyul fitting really well together, as well as Eunwoo and Wooseok. The visual duo interacting had surely made fans go wild and even got enough attention to appear in the media.

Though things became a bit more complicated when their relationship with Dongpyo became closer and more touchy. Dongpyo would sometimes disappear from backstage to go to Astro's room, even sometimes appearing on their videos. It had become so common, Dongpyo didn't even say anything when he left to go see them. Even when they didn't have schedules, Dongpyo had made time to see the veteran group. And the members of his own group couldn't help but feel neglected.

Thing is, all members valued Dongpyo just like they valued any other member. And being treated coldly and even ignored because the younger had found someone "better" to hang out with surely hurt. So at first they tried to ignore it. They stopped bothering Dongpyo about where he was going at first, then stopped bothering him to eat at the right times and sleep well. After more than a week, they barely talked to the younger, mostly because he was never home.

Right then, Astro was going on tour. Which meant Dongpyo would have nothing to do other than stay at the dorms. And that's when he noticed the weird behavior of the older members. They barely reacted even to his cute actions and teasing anymore, and Dongpyo just didn't understand. Didn't understand why their relationship had suddenly become so distant. So he tried asking, and mostly members just brushed it off saying they were tired, or that they had this other thing to do then.

After a few days of failed attempts to get close to the members again, he decided to ask the one who mostly knew everyone's feelings. He knocked on the door of their leader's room, hearing a faint "come in" before opening the door and getting in. Seungwoo seemed to be working on something on his laptop, but looked up when the younger came in.

"Hi, Seungwoo Hyung..."

"Hi, Dongpyo-ya. Need anything?"

"I need to know what's going on"

Seungwoo made a confused face before closing his laptop and putting it aside, gesturing for Dongpyo to come closer. Dongpyo sat with his legs crisscrossed on the leader's bed before speaking.

"All members have suddenly been so so distant... I don't know what I did wrong, but I want to fix it... I can't bear you guys giving me the cold shoulder, hyung"

Dongpyo ended up speaking with a whiny nasally voice at the end, and Seungwoo's heart hurt seeing the younger almost crying because of it. Well, it wasn't something the members agreed on doing, everyone was just upset because of losing such a friend and ended up acting that way. So Seungwoo pulled the younger close, embracing him warmly.

"Just like you need our attention, we need yours too, Dongpyo-ya."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you see what you did to us as well, Dongpyo-ya? You've been treating us coldly, pushing us away just so you could go with your new friends. That hurts as well, you know? It hurt seeing you push us away to hang out with better people"

Realization seemed to dawn on the youngerster's soft features. Just then he realized how bad he had been neglecting his own group in order of being with his hyungs from Astro. He didn't give it much mind at first, he was just having fun and couldn't imagine that could hurt his own members. But then, he also didn't notice himself treating the other's coldly. He probably did because he was tired after playing around with Astro for so long. So Dongpyo just hugged Seungwoo tightly, making the oldest member smile.

"I'm so so so so sorry, Seungwoo hyung, I'm so sorry if I made you feel bad... I promise I'll pay more attention to my actions and words and I promise I won't neglect you guys like this again"

"I know, I know how you feel, Dongpyo-ya. So don't worry about me. But now you have to talk to the others. They're probably a lot more hurt than I am, you're our cutie after all. The older members felt very bad after being ignored by their cutie. "

"I will! I will make sure to make everything better again"

"Go then, Wooseok and Yohan are together in Wooseok's room. They're the ones that take care of you the most nowadays."

Dongpyo quickly nodded, hugging Seungwoo again before standing up to go to Wooseok's room.

"Thank you, Seungwoo hyung"

Seungwoo just smiled brightly and waved him off, and Dongpyo smiled back before leaving the room.

DONGPYO X YOCAT

He stopped right in front of Wooseok's room. Wooseok was surely someone who took care of him a lot, he always protected him from fans who came way too close at the airport, he had even burnt his fingers lighting the candles for Dongpyo's birthday. And Dongpyo felt so so sorry for making one who took care of him so much and cherished him so much hurt like that.

Yohan was another one. Yohan was always so bright, teasing and playing around with Dongpyo, but whenever Dongpyo needed it, he didn't even have to say anything and Yohan came, made him feel better, made him feel loved. And again, Dongpyo had hurt him.

Dongpyo took a deep breath before knocking on the door. He heard Wooseok's sleepy voice saying "come in" and slowly opened the door, coming in and closing the door after himself. Yohan was sitting on the bed, his back resting against a bunch of pillows, and Wooseok seemed to be sitting between his legs, resting his back on the youngster's chest. They seemed to have been watching a movie, both covered with blankets and a laptop on their lap. Both looked at Dongpyo a bit weirdly, waiting for what he would say.

"Hi, Yohan Hyung, Wooseok Hyung..."

"Hi, Dongpyo-ya... can we help you with anything?"

Dongpyo stared at Wooseok's face for a while before walking forward and sitting on the bed in front of the couple. Wooseok noticed the distressed look on the youngerster's face, so he immediately became worried. Dongpyo was mostly very easygoing, so seeing him anxious definitely triggered his protective side a lot.

"Hyungs... I'm sorry. I'm sorry for neglecting you guys and ignoring you guys. I know how much you care about me and I just... I was stupid. I was stupid for turning you down so much and not caring about you as much as you care about me. So I'm sorry."

Dongpyo looked up to see Wooseok smiling softly and gently at him. Wooseok soon pulled away from Yohan a bit and brought Dongpyo close for a hug. This would be when Dongpyo slightly whined, trying to get away, but then it was different. Dongpyo just hugged the hyung even closer, burying his face on Wooseok's shoulder, who quickly started threading his fingers through Dongpyo's hair. Yohan also approached, hugging the both of them and caressing the youngster's back. Soon, Wooseok started speaking softly and gently, the same voice he had used when he would console the members, or just compliment them cause he felt like cherishing them.

"Dongpyo-ya... it's okay. You did behave a bit badly, but it's okay. You recognized your mistakes, and regret them. So just be careful from now on, okay? You're such a sweet amazing person, so don't worry, none of us are mad at you"

"Wooseokie hyung is right, Dongpyo-ya. We know how you must have felt, and we understand it. I'm just glad you looked back on how you were treating us. So don't worry, everything is alright."

"Thank you... I promise I won't ever  neglect you guys again! But I need to say sorry to all the other members as well..."

"It's okay, go to them, later we can all watch movies together"

Dongpyo immediately smiled at the idea given by Wooseok, and slightly pulled away to look at his face. Wooseok smiled back and huffed his hair again.

"Great idea, hyung. I'm calling you when we can start"

Wooseok and Yohan nodded, and Dongpyo gave them one more squeeze before pulling away and standing up. Dongpyo smiled brightly again, before winking and leaving the room while waving.

DONGPYO X NAM DO HYUN X LEE EUNSANG

Dongpyo stopped in front of Dohyun's and Eunsang's dorm room. He lightly knocked, and when there was no answer, he opened the door a bit. Do Hyun seemed very focused on some video on his cellphone, as always snacking on something. Eunsang seemed to be playing some game on his cellphone as well. As soon as both members looked up at the new comer, they both turned a bit sulky. Eunsang slightly frowned before looking back at his phone, and Dohyun crunched his nose cutely.

Dongpyo slowly got in the room, closing the door after himself. He looked at the two members and slowly approached, taking a deep breath before starting to speak.

"Guys, I'm sorry. I know I neglected you and overall was pretty rude, so I'm sorry. I'm sorry I took so long to realize, and didn't value our relationship. I promise I won't ever do that again, and I'll do anything to gain your trust again."

Dohyun and Eunsang looked up at the short member, seeming to be thinking before answering anything. Dongpyo just stared back at them, waiting for their reaction nervously.

"Well... it's okay, Dongpyo-ya. You realized it so it's okay"

Eunsang slightly smiled before turning to Dohyun, waiting for what he had to say.

"It's okay only if you make it up to us"

"It's a deal, we can watch a movie later all together, I'm the one buying snacks, okay?"

"That is a deal. And Dongpyo hyung... during the movie you can only call me Dohyun hyung and I can call you Dongpyo-ya."

Dongpyo slightly glared, pouting but gave in. Well, he thought it was something he could do for having treated the younger so bad for a while. Eunsang stood up, hugging the shorter member, to which their youngest member soon followed suit. Dongpyo hugged them back tightly, smiling.

"I got the other members to say sorry to, but when we can watch the movie all call you guys"

"Deal, go make up with the other hyungs as well."

Dongpyo smiled and waved before leaving the room and making his way to the next room, which happened to be Seungyeon's and Hangyul's room.
