Bonus Chapter 03~ 

"Sungminnie, do you want pumpkin soup or chicken soup for dinner?" Mrs. Lee poked her head into her son's room and asked the strange looking lump on the bed.

The funny looking lump moved a little and then whined, "I don't know Mum, cook whatever is easier for you. Everything tastes like glue right now so even if you presented me hot salt water instead of soup, I think I wouldn't even know."

Mrs. Lee walked closer towards Sungmin's bed and smiled as she patted the big clump," Aigoo~  My poor baby can't taste... but Sungminnie,  you still need to eat a little so that you can recuperate soon. "

Sungmin lowered the thick comforter that he had wrapped himself into and peeked out slowly with a pout, " But Mommy, I have no appetite. My nose is so blocked and my throat really hurts." He spoke miserably in a nasal voice. 

Mrs. Lee's eyes turned sad looking at her son's unnaturally flushed cheeks and snot trickling down his red nose. "Sungmin-ah." She murmured worriedly and wiped Sungmin's raw nose delicately with her apron," baby do you wanna take a warm bath? Maybe the steam would help your nose clear a little."

Sungmin shifted up slowly from where he was lying and sat up in an upright position as he watched his mother switching on the electric geyser to warm up the water for a bath. He sniffled as he stretched towards the bedside table to get his phone while Mrs. Lee drew out fresh clothes from the closet for the sick boy.

"Go and take a warm bath son, and just yell if you need help." Mrs. Lee kissed Sungmin's tousled, matted hair lovingly, "I'll have steaming, hot pumpkin soup ready for you when you're done."

"Thanks Mum, you're the best." Sungmin managed to say with a small smile as his mother closed the door to his bedroom quietly, leaving him in the solitude of his room. He blew his nose into a piece of tissue paper and scowled in disgust at the green chunk of snot. 

"Ryeowook posted on instagram, huh?" He muttered under his breath, waiting for the picture to load.. only to gasp seeing his two best friends posting a selca together with the decorations and setting of the dance behind them.

 A small pout came over his lips as he read out the caption, 'we really wish you were here with us minggeu, recover soon :* '

It was just his luck. Sungmin had taken the bus alone to school two days ago and a little old man had sneezed all over his face and the consequence you ask? Sungmin had fallen sick that very evening. 

Prom was supposed to be perfect, he had been ecstatic when Kyuhyun had asked him and everything.. only to be so disappointed when he had come down with a cold. Sungmin eyed the steady number of updates by his classmates on his instagram feed with a sad pout, wishing that he too was with them.  

But of course fate had to be a meanie to him and now he was in bed, sick while his boyfriend was probably at home playing starcraft all evening.

Of course he was touched that Kyuhyun decided not to even think about going to the dance without Sungmin, but he was really looking forward to a lovely, memorable night with his boyfriend.

He let out a sigh of dismay before walking slowly to the bathroom- his baby blue pajamas clutched tightly in one arm and a cute bathing towel thrown over his shoulders. Though his clogged up nose couldn't even make out if he was stinky or not, he figured it wouldn't so bad to wash up.

Twenty minutes later, Sungmin was back in bed- completely dressed in his pajamas, with his hair brushed back neatly into place and and a small wooden stand placed over his legs.  

He frowned at the bowl of steaming hot pumpkin soup placed on the wooden board and dipped in the spoon into the warm liquid.  Sticking out his tiny pink tongue, Sungmin the soup to test the waters, only to groan in disappointment as his taste buds met up with bland, tasteless soup. 

After gulping down the remaining soup in a couple of mouthfuls and taking his medication, Sungmin was tucked back into bed. 

"Take a small nap, baby." Mrs. Lee kissed her son's forehead gently before taking away the empty soup bowl and plates, "don't stay up with your phone  Sungmin-ah, you'll only strain your eyes. " She spoke warningly earning another whine of protest from her son.

"But Mum- "

"But Mum, nothing. " Mrs. Lee said firmly, " you need to take plenty of rest, okay baby?"

"Sleep well~" She murmured gently before switching off the lights and leaving her only son alone- frowning in the darkness.

Sungmin stared at the four walls of his room, once again finding himself in complete solitude. He couldn't help but think that it was a complete waste of a perfect Saturday night. 

Sungmin didn't even dare to touch his phone because his mother had the habit of popping up at the most unexpected moments. And it didn't take him long to fall into a state of dreamless slumber.

***

"Thank you so much Mrs. Lee for letting us do this." A young boy spoke warmly as he brought a huge box into the house before shutting the door behind him.

Mrs. Lee smiled, "I think its really sweet of you to do something like this for my baby, Kyuhyun-ah." 

Kyuhyun placed the box full of decorations near the staircase and turned towards his boyfriend's mother," Min had really been looking forward to the dance and he must have been really heartbroken to be not able to go... so I thought I could bring the dance to him instead. "

"Sungminnie has been quite difficult all day." She admitted with a chuckle, "I'm happy you're here though, he'll be really delighted when he wakes up."

Sungmin was sleeping?

Perfect!

Sungmin being asleep gave Kyuhyun ample amount of time to arrange a couple of things and make sure their night would be spectacular. He heaved the box back into his arms and was about to head upstairs when Sungmin's mother stopped him.

"Can I get anything for you Kyuhyun? A drink or a snack maybe?" She asked sweetly. 

"I wouldn't want to give you any trouble- " Kyuhyun spoke awkwardly with an aura of shyness surrounding him.  

"Oh nonsense." Mrs. Lee turned down his words immediately, "it's no trouble at all! A fresh batch of my special double chocolate chip cookies are gonna be out of the oven in a minute or two, I'll bring you some along with tea." 

After thanking the woman profusely, Kyuhyun headed upstairs... he sneaked in a peek into his boyfriend's room only to smile lovingly as he saw Sungmin curled into a small ball with only a tuft of his hair poking up from the duvet that he was cocooned into. 

He closed the door to Sungmin's room quietly and climbed up into the attic, cursing under his breath as the wood creaked under his weight. He didn't want Sungmin to wake up now... not when he still had so many things to do.

Kyuhyun placed the big box onto the wooden floor, exhaling deeply as he looked across the barren room and then a dorky grin came across his lips.

               Time to get to work~

After thirty minutes, when Mrs. Lee climbed up to the attic, she was in for a pleasant shock. "Wow." She muttered in pure amazement, "wow, t-this is.. this is amazing!" She exclaimed in awe. 

"Oh Kyuhyun, everything looks so romantic and sweet! " Mrs. Lee breathed in as Kyuhyun turned crimson at her words. "Sungmin is gonna be so surprised."

"R-really? You really think so?" Kyuhyun asked the woman timidly. He just hoped that Sungmin wouldn't end up being mad at him or something. He would die if that would happen.

Sungmin's mother set down the tray of cookies and tea onto the cushion of a chair and smiled reassuringly, "I know so. He is gonna love it."

"Thank you Mrs. Lee." Kyuhyun managed to crack a smile, looking quite pleased at her words. She ruffled the boy's hair affectionately and spoke," Call me Mom, boy."

Hearing Kyuhyun's sharp intake of breath, she smiled, "I'll leave you to wake up Sungmin whenever you want to." 

After wolfing down the cookies and the tea, Kyuhyun typed out a quick reply to Ryeowook and Hyukjae.

Of course Sungmin's friends were in it too! The two were at the supermarket, shopping and choosing snacks- being in charge of the food and drinks for their mini party wasn't to be taken lightly, especially when all the four boys just happened to have bottomless pits. 

Seeing the text message from Hyukjae, saying that the two of them would make it to Sungmin's home in thirty minutes, Kyuhyun decided to step out of the attic for a while. 

"Sungmin?" He called out, chuckling to himself as he found his boyfriend sleeping in the same exact position as he was an hour ago. It seemed like Sungmin's medication did a real number on him for the boy was knocked out cold.

Kyuhyun lifted up the duvet at a small angle, just enough for him to slip into warm bed. He brought his arms around Sungmin's waist.. pressing his chest snugly to the latter's back- spooning him into a cozy embrace. 

"Baby?" He whispered as he kissed the sleeping boy's nape gently and brushed his nose over the skin.

Sensing his boyfriend stirring, Kyuhyun continued to press soft kisses over Sungmin's neck smiling to himself in the darkness when Sungmin finally groaned and shifted over to rest on his back. 

"K-kyuhyun?" Sungmin called out groggily, "Is that you, Kyu? Or am I still dreaming?"

Kyuhyun chuckled at Sungmin's question and reassured, "This is not a dream Min, I'm really here."

"Well then hello Kyu." Sungmin mumbled sleepily as he pressed his palm to his mouth gently to prevent a yawn.

Silence settled over them and Kyuhyun waited patiently for Sungmin to get back to his senses, and voila~ all of a sudden Sungmin shot up straight in his bed and cursed.

"Oh oh oh !" 

Sungmin rubbed his face vigourously and tried to fix his disheveled appearance as Kyuhyun stretched out an arm to switch on the bedside lamp. "I look like ." Sungmin bemoaned as the bedroom illuminated with the soft glow of the lamp, finally enabling Kyuhyun to look at his boyfriend's face for the first time that evening.

"Sungmin, stop stop!" Kyuhyun caught Sungmin from running his fingers through his messy hair. Flushed cheeks, runny nose and tired dismayed eyes with wobbling lips greeted him and he smiled.

"You are adorable Min, just as always." Kyuhyun he murmured tenderly and kissed Sungmin's chapped lips chastely hereby drowning all of his boyfriend's protests.

"K-k-kyuhyun!" Sungmin whined as they separated, "You idiot, you're gonna be infected now! Why did you kiss me?!"

Kyuhyun laughed dorkily... oh his Sungmin, always the worrywart.

"I'll be fine, vitamin you is all I need to be healthy." He spoke teasingly, brushing his lips against Sungmin's for another sweet kiss. 

"How are you feeling now Min?" Kyuhyun asked a couple of minutes later when the two were resting comfortably against the headboard of the bed, with Sungmin leaning into Kyuhyun's chest while the latter caressed his boyfriend's hair. 

"I'm getting better." Sungmin managed to mumble between his thoughts of how exactly he could sense the sweetness of their kisses but couldn't manage to taste pumpkin soup just hours ago. 

Well then it must just be with Kyuhyun, he shrugged.

"Having you here is certainly elevating the process though~" He spoke thoughtfully, "Maybe you should just stay over whenever I'm sick.. f-for speedy recovery yes, speedy recovery of course!" 

Kyuhyun chuckled at Sungmin's adorable rambling and said teasingly, "Are you trying to get me into your bed, Sungmin ah.."

Sungmin muttered without thinking, "It's not like you haven't been in it before- ohmygod Kyuhyun!" He turned completely red, finally understanding what Kyuhyun meant by those words. He smacked a cackling Kyuhyun's arm with a pout, "You're so naughty off late."

Kyuhyun brought out his handkerchief from his tuxedo and pressed it onto Sungmin's red nose, wiping the trickle of snot that covered the older's nose, "You messy baby~"

And Sungmin noticed for the first time what his boyfriend was wearing...a tuxedo! Wait, did it mean Kyuhyun went to the dance without him? Kyuhyun lied to him?!

Seeing Sungmin frowning to himself, Kyuhyun whispered worriedly,"What's wrong, Min? Are you feeling okay? Do you want some water? Do you want me to call your Mum?"

"Kyuhyun did you lie to me?" 

"What? No, I would never! Why would you even think like that Sungmin?"

"Then why are you all dressed up in a tuxedo, looking so handsome and alluring? You could have just said that you went to the dance without me, I wouldn't have minded." Sungmin spoke looking quite hurt.

Kyuhyun laughed and gathered his boyfriend back into his arms," Silly baby, do you remember what's today?"

"I know Kyuhyun. It's Prom." Sungmin muttered dejectedly," I feel miserable being cooped up at home and not being able to go to the dance."

"And I knew how you felt about it so I have a surprise for you~" Kyuhyun looked at Sungmin's questioning gaze and spoke lovingly, "Come with me." 

Kyuhyun helped Sungmin down the bed and intertwined their fingers as they walked out of the bedroom hand-in-hand. "Close your eyes, Sungmin." Kyuhyun whispered softly, leading them towards the attic with Sungmin waddling beside him in his slippers and still dressed up in his baby blue pajamas.

Kyuhyun opened the door to the attic, quietly motioning to Hyukjae and Ryeowook to keep silent. "You can open your eyes now Min." He spoke, squeezing Sungmin's hand lovingly.

"W-w-what?!"

"SURPRISE!" Hyukjae and Ryeowook shouted in unison, beaming delightfully at their awestruck bestfriend.

"I don't understand, how what when?" Sungmin muttered as his eyes sweeped across the normally boring dull attic that had been completely transformed into a spectacular dancefloor.

From glittering blue stars dangling from the ceiling to the table full of snacks and fruit punch; and the streamers hung plastered to the wall, ' Senior Prom of 2014' 

"Since you couldn't be at the dance with us, Kyuhyun figured that he could bring the dance to you." Ryeowook quipped in helpfully. "Hyukjae and I pitched in for the food and drinks but everything else was Kyuhyun."

"I can't believe you did this." Sungmin spoke quietly as he turned towards a very nervous Kyuhyun. 

"Are you mad at me?" Kyuhyun swallowed, praying to the holy spirits that the night wouldn't end with his boyfriend being angry at him. 

"Are you kidding, Kyuhyun?" Sungmin laughed breathlessly." I love this, I love this so much." He threw himself into Kyuhyun's arms and glomped the taller male tightly, melting away all of the latter's worries. 

"I love you Kyuhyun, so so much." Sungmin cried into Kyuhyun's neck. His fingers curled into fists as he held Kyuhyun's suit tightly, hugging his boyfriend as he tried to stop his eyes from tearing up.

Noone had ever done anything so crazy and yet so sweet for himand Sungmin felt so touched.

"Sungmin are you crying?"  Kyuhyun asked in shock.

"No you idiot, these are happy tears. Kyuhyun you big, stupid, dorky, idiotic nerd." Sungmin sniffled as the taller male wrapped his arms around Sungmin's waist and pressed them even closer. "I love you Kyuhyun."

"I love you too, Sungmin. I love so much." He murmured lovingly before pressing a chaste kiss onto his boyfriend's plump lips causing the shorter male to melt into h

"Hello~ We're still here!" Ryeowook squealed in protest, covering his eyes while Hyukjae stuffed a handful of cheesy doritos into his mouth.

Hyukjae crunched on the crisps savagely while Ryewook, Sungmin and Kyuhyun stared at him.

"Whaaaaaaat~?" 

And later when Kyuhyun had his lanky arms placed over Sungmin's hips as they slow danced.. very slowly, Sungmin couldn't help but think how things turned out to be. 

Just a couple of hours ago, he was be to himself, cursing lady luck for falling sick and missing out the dance with his boyfriend and now look where he was.Dressed in his baby blue pajamas with matching bedroom slippers slow dancing with Kyuhyun under the glimmering stars of the night.

Precious things that you look forward to with all your being don't always work out the way you want them to, but strangely Sungmin was completely okay with them not working out as long as he had Kyuhyun's arms wrapped around his waist and sweet confessions of love being murmured into his ears, at the end of the day.

And he wouldn't have it any other way.
