I want to see us growing old. Counting wrinkles and gray hair. Watching young people get intrigued by 2 handsome grandpas holding
hands.

Kyuhyun smiled as he woke up with kisses all over his face. He opened one eye and saw Sungmin kissing the tip of his nose.

"Morning..." he said sleepily. Sungmin looked at him with a smile and kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Morning." he said in a high-pitched voice. Is he really this happy because he topped last night? His little ert. Kyuhyun would
want to wake up with Sungmin having this kind of mood. He, then remembered his dream a while ago. He thinks he knows what to do today.

He looked at Sungmin who resume to his work earlier. Sungmin smiles at him every time he'll plant soft kisses on Kyuhyun's face.
Kyuhyun swore he'd give everything to have this older man a longer life. He wants to wake up having those feathery kisses with only
this person giving it.

Its always Kyuhyun who wakes him up with million kisses. It's always Kyuhyun who takes care of him. It's always Kyuhyun who cheers
him up. It's time for Sungmin to give back some of the things Kyuhyun has been giving him, he doesn't like it much if he'll always be
in the receiving end. He wants to show Kyuhyun how thankful he is.

Kyuhyun looked at him knowingly. Is Sungmin inviting him for an early or should he say late round 2? He shook his head with a
smile. He can't let his ert continue this otherwise they can't do what he has in mind today.

"Save those for later, Min. Let's go out today." he said when Sungmin was about to kiss him on his lips.

Sungmin stopped and looked at him excitedly. "Really?! Where are we going?" Kyuhyun shrugged his shoulder.

"I don't know. Where do you want to go?"

Sungmin pouted shortly. "Anywhere except hospital." Kyuhyun has been accompanying him to the hospital since the time they got back
together. Well, he does like the fact that he's always with the young man, but since they'll be going out today, he won't consider
hospital as an option.

Kyuhyun smiled at him. "Hospital is not an ideal place to have a date."

"We're going for a date?" Sungmin's smile widened even more, there goes the child like Sungmin. His favourite side of Sungmin; the
child-like, carefree and happy Sungmin. That's his favourite next to the ert one; the one who gets crazy with the thought of them
making out and the one whom he always think is innocent but apparently is not. His eyes twinkle with the word date. A date with
Kyuhyun? Come to think of it, they haven't been on a date since they started going out.

"Yup. We're always inside the house. Let's get some sun, ok?"

Sungmin nodded and jumped out of bed and ran towards the bathroom. "Let's not waste time, Kyuhyun. I'll take my shower first."

Kyuhyun watched him until he disappeared from the door. He stood up and went out of the room for a while.

He saw Lee Umma drinking her tea with her usual composed yet light aura. Kyuhyun looked down and remember how Lee Umma wept last
night. He sighed and composed himself.

"Good morning, Lee Umma."

Lee Umma looked at him and smiled brightly like her usual happy smile. Has Lee Umma always been like this? Was she just pretending
to be strong all this time? Now that he sees her doing this, it feels like it was a forced smile. He looked at her and thought
whether he should tell her that he saw what happened to her last night.

"Don't look at me like I did something wrong, Cho Kyuhyun. Where is Sungmin?" she asked in her blant tone.

Kyuhyun smiled and looked down. Yeah, he shouldn't tell her about that. She wants to look strong in front of them. For how long has
she been like this to Sungmin? Probably before he even came in the older's life. She still deserves to be applauded, it's not easy
being strong in front of the weak when you're knees are also about to breakdown.

"He's in the shower. We'll be going out, Lee Umma, do you mind?"

Lee Umma shook her head as sipped her tea. "Not at all... Sungmin deserves some sun, please."

"That's what I thought." Kyuhyun smiled. He looked at Umma once again. How hard can it be to see her son weakened by the day? How
strong does she have to pretend to be able to stand and smile like this? Kyuhyun walked towards the old woman and hugged her tightly
as if she's his own mom.

"Lee Umma, thanks for everything." he whispered. Lee Umma was surprised when she felt Kyuhyun at her side and embraced her, those
words somewhat let her heart felt lighter. She had it last night and wasn't able to stop herself from crying her heart out after what she has
found out about her son's condition. She blinked a tear away and sighed with a smile.

"I only want Sungmin for my son. That boy never grow up despite his age, I don't want another son like that."

Kyuhyun smiled and tightened his embrace to his unofficial mother-in-law. "I'd love to have a mom like you, Umma." he said, hoping
Lee Umma wouldn't mind him dropping her name and calling her the way Sungmin does.

Lee Umma smiled and held the arm wrapped around her shoulder. If it wasn't for Kyuhyun, she wouldn't know how she would face the news
they had last night. She saw him talking to Sungmin over the phone in front of the music room. She's so thankful that she doesn't
need to give Sungmin some words of encouragement last night because the younger man did it for her. She's glad she accepted Kyuhyun,
she was able to see how happy Sungmin is and how he looks forward to another day. She's glad she has another shoulder to carry her if
her facade weakens.

"You've done well for a son-in-law." Kyuhyun smiled widely as he sway his and Lee Umma's body. "Alright, go take that noisy bunny
here and have your breakfast."

Kyuhyun kissed the side of Lee Umma's hair and walked away. He sighed while standing in front of their room. He did well, he was
able to keep what he saw last night and was able to cheer Lee Umma. He did well.

He opened the door and was shocked to see Sungmin standing in front of him. Pouting. Pouting means emergency, what is wrong with his
man? He wondered.

"Are you ok?" Kyuhyun asked. Sungmin pouted even more as he walked towards the young man. He used his index and middle finger to
check on the neckline of Kyuhyun's shirt. He pouted again right after he finished looking at Kyuhyun's neck and collarbones.

"What?" The young man asked. Sungmin did not answer instead lifted the hemline of Kyuhyun's shirt revealing his tummy. "What?!"
Kyuhyun asked again. Why is this man checking on his tummy? He didn't eat Sungmin's pancake that's for sure.
"What's wrong, Min?"

Sungmin pouted and stomped his feet once, hands crossed against his chest. "You don't have the marks you left me before!"

Kyuhyun looked stupidly surprised with what Sungmin is pouting about. "H-hickey? You're looking for a hickey?" he asked
sarcastically. Like seriously, Sungmin is looking for a hickey?

"I had a lot the night we did it...when you top. I don't even have an evidence that I topped you!" he said like crying and pouting.
Kyuhyun smiled, a teasing smile that almost seemed like a laughter that irritated the older instantly. His child-like ert. Exactly
which part of Sungmin is not adorable? He topped last night and feeling so dominant saying he'll do it over and over again and now
he's favourite man is stomping his feet and pouting all because the young man didn't have a hickey from last night. Kyuhyun
needed to bite his lower lip to suppress his laughter.

"Don't laugh at me like that Cho Kyuhyun!"

Kyuhyun didn't supress his laughter anymore. He chuckled twice and looked at the older man. "That's because you're very cute. I
don't deserve a hickey, Min. You were cute when you topped but I don't deserve a hickey."

"Of course you do. Hickeys don't kill people. You deserve to have at least one!" he said in a complaining tone.

"Well, you should have thought of that while you were at it last night."

Sungmin pouted and turned his back on Kyuhyun. It's really unfair, he needed to cover most of his neck with a concealer just so the
red marks won't be too obvious. Umma saw it because of his singlet! He cannot even cover it up with a round neck shirt! It's just
so unfair.

"We'll be going out, Min. Stop pouting." Kyuhyun said as he placed his hand on Sungmin's face.

Sungmin looked at him sharply and turned his back again. Kyuhyun smiled and just shook his head; he seldom sees those tantrums.
It's really cute but he doesn't really want to see Sungmin pouting. It may seem like the older is manipulating him with this but he
doesn't really care. He likes those cute tantrums, those plump lips and those stomping and crossing arms but he doesn't want to see
it for long. He knows what to do with those.

Kyuhyun started walking around, getting his towel and boxer briefs. He took off his shirt while walking and purposely walked around
Sungmin. He wrapped the towel around his waist and took off his sweat pants as well.
The older is sitting near the headboard and Kyuhyun squat down beside him pretending to look for something inside the drawer beside
their bed.

Sungmin looked at his back sharply and looked away but not for long, he thought something caught his eyes. He looked at Kyuhyun's
back near the shoulder blades area and saw not just hickeys but bite marks as well. He blushed. Did he give that to Kyuhyun? There's
one bite mark on Kyuhyun's left shoulder that looks really deep. He didn't notice it a while ago because he only focused on the
collarbones and neck (that's where his hickeys were) He moved closer to the young man. There are at least 3-4 marks on each side of his
shoulders and 2 bite marks, one of the bite mark is purplish blue like that of a bruise.

"Omo, Kyuhyun ah..." his voice with concern. He looked at the bite mark and wanted to touch it but scared that it might be painful.
When excatly did he do that last night? Which part of their love making did he give that to the young man? He can't seem to remember
how it becomes this deep and blue. "Did I..."

"I don't know who else would do it, Min. It's not like I'm sleeping with your maid's dog." Sungmin looked down, guilty.

"It looks painful."

"It's not. I didn't really wince when you gave it to me because you did really well." he said as he placed his hand on the older's
cheek. "Next time you have to use your eyes when looking for something. You're mouth works better in kissing than pouting." Sungmin
looked down and felt like being scolded because of his childishness but he eyed on Kyuhyun who is looking at him gently, he kissed
the older man on the lips and eyed shortly on the bite mark. "There goes your evidence, happy?" Kyuhyun asked with a smile. Sungmin
smiled back and nodded. Kyuhyun glared at him suspiciously.

"ert." Sungmin widened his eyes and wanted to protest with what Kyuhyun said but "Umma is downstairs, join her for breakfast
while I shower." a kiss on the older's forehead. Kyuhyun smiled, satisfied that Sungmin's pout has already disappeared.

"Am I going to top again?" Sungmin asked with a cute voice. Kyuhyun smirked and shook his head, he eyed on the older. He's such a
ert! After seeing those bites, he's still asking whether he can still top? Did he really feel guilty that those bites look painful?
His little ert, he'd like to attact Sungmin now and let him pay for those marks but oh well, he has other plans.

"Nope. You're cute and all but you're definitely not yourself when you're on top. Besides, the readers doesn't like it." he winked
and walked away leaving Sungmin confused.

*******************************************
They were in an open field like that in the small hill of the school, Kyuhyun is lying down on Sungmin's lap while the latter is lying on the
blanket the young man has prepared for them. There is a small basket where Umma prepared some fruits and snacks for them.
The sun is shining brightly, the sky is just so clear,  it's a little bit windy which makes them like the weather today. Such an ideal weather for dating.
Kyuhyun sighed and sat up. He opened the basket and looked for the thing he sneaked inside while Lee Umma was looking away. He looked at
Sungmin and smiled excitedly as he brought out something from a food container.

"What's that?" Sungmin asked as he sat up, watching the young man from behind. Kyuhyun smiled widely as he brought out a small chocolate
cupcake with pink frosting on top. He looked at the older first and said...

"Hold this for me, Min." he handed the cupcake and raid the basket once more. Ah! he found what he was looking for. He took the cupcake
and turned his back on Sungmin. He put a sparkler on the food and used a lighter to light it. He turned to the older
with the sparkler burning.

Happy Birthday to you~ Happy Birthday to you~ Happy Birthday My Sungmin~ Happy Birthday to you~

Kyuhyun sang. The older was so mesmerized by the gentle fire that the sparkler displayed in front of him despite the brightness of the sun. He likes
watching fireworks and anything as mesmerizing as this really makes his heart leaps. His smile is wide and his eyes brightens too. But it's not his
birthday. Kyuhyun smiled at him.

"Make a wish, Sungmin ah..." he said.

It's not his birthday but Sungmin closed his eyes and clasped his fingers. I wish Kyuhyun can be a famous singer, he deserves to be.
He smiled and blow the sparkler with Kyuhyun. He eyed on the young man.

"Kyu, it's not really my birthday today. What's going on?"

Kyuhyun looked at him. "It is." he smiled widely and his eyes brightened. "And it's your 35th birthday." Sungmin widened his eyes and
wondered what the young man is talking about. "This is your 10th birthday with me, Min. We've spend 10 years together." The older
slightly opened his mouth and was shocked to hear what Kyuhyun said. 10 years? They've spent 10 years together? He smiled and accepted
the thought that they are fast forwarding the time they are together. Kyuhyun's idea of birthday is to make them grow older... 10 years older.

He wrapped his arms around Kyuhyun's neck and rewarded him with a kiss on the lips. "Thanks, Kyuhyun. This is so sweet." Kyuhyun looked
at him; his eyes had a journey on Sungmin's face; from his beautiful forehead to his eyebrows down to his mystical eyes and then to his
perfectly pointed nose, to his smooth cheeks and them to his shapy lips. He smiled. Sungmin lasting for 10 years and spending it with
him would be such a good thing. He'd like to see the older and be with him for the next 10 years and the next next 10 years and the
next next next 10 years and the next next next next 10 years until they reach 100. He really wants to grow old with Sungmin, it's just
so unfair that he won't see his man grow old and have white hair with him. His eyes unwantedly produced some water around,
he closed his eyes shortly and opened it again.

Sungmin didn't noticed it as he was so happy. He smiled widely and eyed on the sweet thing that is the cupcake. It looks mouth watering,
he likes the sweet colour of it and the smooth texture of the frosting that he looks forward in eating. "Can I eat my cupcake now?"
he asked.

Kyuhyun nodded his head and Sungmin smiled even more, letting the young man see the crinkles at the side of his eyes, Kyuhyun's favourite
crinkles.

The young man kissed those crinkles at the side of his eyes. "I love these crinkles." he said. From the time he had seen those, he had
fallen in love with it. He likes the fact that those crinkles shows up whenever Sungmin is happy, seeing those now means he made the
older happy once again.

Sungmin shook his head and said. "I hate those crinkles, it makes me look old." he said and pouted slowly but smiled as he took a bite of the
cupcake. The young man chuckled. Which part of Sungmin is old? He looks 18, he acts like 12 and throw tantrums like 6. Which part of
him is old? If someone can point it to the older man, he'd be glad so.

"You're 35 today, Min. Those crinkles are legit." Sungmin smiled widely. He likes the thought that he is 35 and with Kyuhyun. He lived,
he didn't die young, he didn't leave Kyuhyun at 25. He spend 10 years with the same man and this man didn't even try leaving him even
during his struggles. He likes the thought of 10 years.

"How long do you think will we stay together?" Sungmin asked. This is pretend play, he'd like to hear Kyuhyun's plan for them. Kyuhyun
looked up and pretended to think more although he knows in his mind that he already has an answer.

"100 years?"

Kyuhyun smiled and entered his own world of plans and imaginations. "At 45, we'll be staying in Seoul with Umma of course, she's too
weak by then. We'll take care of her together." he said while looking at Sungmin. "You'll be my good husband waiting for me to go home
after a tiring work. Oh, I'm working in a talent company so I'll probably be training new artist by then." he smiled with the thought.

"By 55, I'll probably retire. Not sure if Umma is still here but I'm quite sure we'll be starting to tour the world." he said
and looked at Sungmin gently. "I'd like to spend more quality time with you, Min. We'll have Paris, New York, London... is there any place you
would like to see?"

"Japan, I'd like to see Japan."

Kyuhyun chuckled. "Trust me, Min. Japan will be like a second home for us. If you should know, I'm quite famous during my younger age." The
young man is really into his pretend play, acting like he is really 55. "I have all world tours sold out. Thanks to your songs." he said with a smile.
"You'll be an incredible composer and... I have to be selfish, Min.
All the good songs will be sang by only me, ok?" Sungmin smiled and nodded. "So... any more places you want to go to?"

"Greece."

"Greece?" Kyuhyun thought for a while. "Right, Greece. We'll be spending some quality time there; just you and me. Drinking tea, comparing
wines, collecting pictures..."

Sungmin smiled at Kyuhyun. He had never imagined living for another 30 years because of his sickness thus he cannot help Kyuhyun
to do any planning for their so-called future. But hearing the young man's plan at 55; he can't help but feel sorry for him. They'll
be together for 30 years by then. He looked down and felt tears coming up. 30 years with Kyuhyun. He'd like to spend 30 years with Kyuhyun too.
Kyuhyun continuesly plan their future, visualizing what will happen one decade after another. When they are 65, 75, 85. Sungmin just looked down;
he'd love to see those. He'd love to count Kyuhyun's wrinkles and comparing it to his. He'd love to see Kyuhyun's hair becoming gray and white. He'd
love to see Kyuhyun's growing old...with him.

"When we're 95..." Kyuhyun said still thinking what to say. He sighed. "We're probably too weak by then." He eyed on the older who
wasn't able to stop his own tears from falling. He stopped his long speech. Sungmin sighed and tried his best to keep the tears in place
and showed him a warm smile.

"When we're 95..." Sungmin started. "I'll just hold your hands like this." he said taking Kyuhyun's hand and closing them together.

Kyuhyun smiled at him. How will Sungmin look like when he had countless wrinkles on that beautiful forehead? How will Sungmin look like when the
skin from his eyes had already sagged? How will Sungmin look like when he has gray hair? Kyuhyun wished he could witness those in the future. He cannot show his tears, he won't. He held Sungmin's hand and interlaced their fingers together.

"Right, hold on to me like this, Min."

I'll never let you go.
