" Lee Hyukjae! Stop grinning like an idiot!", sungmin groaned as he smacked the dancer's head with his magazine. "Ow!", hyukjae whined as he rubbed his sore forehead, "you're just jealous!". The older rolled his eyes, "Yeah, if I knew our babyKyu was that good in bed, I'd have jumped him long ago." "Hey!", the dancer protested, punching his friend playfully. "So, what's the good news?", sungmin nudged the pouting dancer. "Hmm..well-", hyukjae twiddled his thumbs before giggling, "kyu asked me out for a date! finally!" "Ooh Really? That's great! You guys are finally going out for an official date! I'm so happy for you both!", the older squealed, hugging his dongsaeng happily.

Later that afternoon, hyukjae was dressed in his favourite hoodie and skinny jeans, hurrying through the alley that led to the main street. He tugged his cap lower and adjusted his sunglasses so no one could recognize him. Right then, a black hyundai pulled up in front of him. After checking that there were no suspicious persons nor paparazzi following him, he yanked open the car door and hopped into the passenger's seat. Kyuhyun laughed, "What was that for?" "There might be someone following us!", the dancer replied as he slouched down his seat, keeping his head hidden from the windows. The younger shook his head in amusement, "So what if they follow us? There's nothing wrong with seeing us both together." "Oh right.", the older muttered sheepishly as he straightened up in his seat, "so where are we going? Movie? Amusement Park? Namsam Tower?" Hyukjae frowned when the younger refuted all his guesses. "Then where??" "Secret.", kyuhyun replied, winking at the older boy who folded his arms and was now glaring at him angrily.

The black hyundai exited the freeway and drove into the winding road paved with small rocks. It took another ten minutes before the car finished the uneven road and arrived at a small building. The sun had already gone down, and the building was brightly lighted up. "C'mon!", kyuhyun tugged the older who was still frowning at the mysterious building. Hyukjae knew that asking kyuhyun was no use, so he just let the younger pull him into the dubious looking place. If hyukjae had any doubts before, when he entered the building, all was replaced by awe and fascination. The interior of the building was styled like traditional korean concept, so it was open air and there was like a mini garden with a fountain in the middle. Although the building seemed small from the outside, it was actually three storeys high, with an open rooftop. Once again, hyukjae breathed in amazement. "Do you like this place?", the younger smiled affectionately. He nodded his head furiously. "Well, it will get even better once we get inside.", kyuhyun pointed to another set of doors in front of them before he held the older's hand and led him there. To hyukjae's surprise, when they stepped inside, there were three beautiful ladies dressed in hanbok who greeted them politely, "Welcome to the Star Palace." He turned to kyuhyun and raised his brows questioningly. The latter just shook his head slightly and led him to settle down at the table in the middle of the room. Then, one of the ladies, the one wearing the pink hanbok took out her gayageum (a zither-like string
