Kibum's heart was racing too, wondering what Ryeowook would say. Somewhere in his heart, he was hoping Ryeowook would say no and choose him.   "I - I don't know."   Kyuhyun's heart sank, "But - but I thought we broke up with those people so we could ... get together."   "I - I - "   "Don't push him." Kibum snarled protectively.   "We need to talk to understand each other." Kyuhyun said firmly, "Ryeowook, is it because you miss Yesung?"   "I said, I don't know." Ryeowook said miserably, "I guess .. I just ... I'm scared."   "Of what? Me? I won't hurt you anymore, I promise." Kyuhyun felt hurt thinking that Ryeowook didn't trust him.   "I think it's just too soon for him, alright?" Kibum stepped in, knowing Ryeowook would appreciate it. "Give him a week, is that alright with you, Wookie? One week to get over Yesung hyung and think it through?"   Ryeowook puffed out his cheeks and nodded, "Kibummie, my neck is cold." Ryeowook whined, "Let's go home, Kyukyu can come too."   Kyuhyun's heart leapt when he heard Ryeowook's new nickname for him. Kyukyu.   "Sure, thanks." he smiled, glad that Ryeowook had invited him over, "We only have two weeks of snow left now, and then you won't be cold."   "But I like snow." Ryeowook pouted, "Even if it makes me cold, it's white and fluffy. But the other seasons are better for us."   Kyuhyun knew what he meant. They would have to work harder to afford things in the winter, and they didn't have proper warm clothing. "Where do you work, Wookie?" Kyuhyun asked, wondering.   "I work at a candy shop, I've been working there for years." Ryeowook said proudly, "I usually work there on Weekends only, since I have school during the day. And I work as a waiter at a restaurant from 6 to 8:30 every weekday, so I still have some time with you guys before going."   "I can drop you off on my way home. I usually drive, but there was too much snow today so I walked. So for today I'll walk you to work. Tomorrow I can drive you." Kyuhyun couldn't stop babbling.   "I'll go too." Kibum said quickly, "I usually stay around there to make sure he's alright."   "I can do that too!" Kyuhyun suggested. He wanted to make sure he didn't miss out on anything that would show he cared for Ryeowook.   "There's no need. I just sit and do my homework there, nothing much." Kibum said, trying to keep Kyuhyun away.   "Good, then I can sit there with you and we can help each other out. And when does Wook do his homework?"   "When I get home, but if I'm really tired," Ryeowook leaned in close to Kyuhyun so only he and Kibum could hear, "I copy Bummie's work!" Ryeowook let out a nervous giggle, "But I hate doing that, so I try not to. Don't tell anyone!"   "I won't." Kyuhyun promised, "Maybe I can take some shifts sometimes so you can do your homework."   "But I need to make money!"   "I can help work too, and you can still take the money!" Kyuhyun explained.   "But then it isn't fair." Ryeowook pointed out.   "But we can't have you staying up late to do homework everyday. I'm sure your boss won't object to me covering half your shift each day."   "But - " Ryeowook protested.   "Well, if you really have to be there," Kibum looked annoyed, Kyuhyun was taking away his time with his best friend, "Then I'm sure Yunho will let you Ryeowook out. He'll let his Ryeowook do anything."   "His Ryeowook?" Kyuhyun asked unhappily.   Kibum grinned, "He loves Wook. Who doesn't?"   "Yunho." somehow the name rang a bell.   "He's a close friend of Teukie and Chullie hyung too, he was their senior a few years ago ... before we even got here." Kibum explained.   "Yunho hyung is nice, I like him." Ryeowook said, happily on a lollipop he had pulled out from his pocket.   "He adores you." Kibum chuckled, "We all do."   "I adore you too Bummie!" Ryeowook smiled and gazed at Kibum with those big, sparkling puppy eyes.   Kyuhyun was beginning to feel jealous. "So we chill at Wook's house for a bit first?"   "Yes." Kibum answered.   "And I can make us a snack! Then I can get more feedback from Kyuhyunnie on how my cooking is!" Ryeowook said happily.   A snack sounded wonderful, Kyuhyun agreed to this plan and the group happily entered Ryeowook's apartment. Leeteuk, Donghae and Eunhyuk were also working, so they were alone.   Ryeowook fixed them a small snack, cookies and milk, "Is it good?" Ryeowook asked anxiously as Kyuhyun took his first bite. Kyuhyun nodded enthusiastically and chomped his way through 5 more cookies.   "We should get going." Ryeowook said, making Kyuhyun and Kibum stare longingly at the last two cookies. "Alright, take those with you and let's go." Ryeowook laughed, glad that his friends liked his cookies. Kyuhyun and Kibum grabbed one of the last two cookies each and greedily gobbled them down right on the spot, "Isn't there any more?" Kibum asked sadly, still hungry.   "No Bummie, but I'll make more soon, okay?" Ryeowook assured his friend, "Besides, Yunho hyung will make us lots of yummy food."   Kyuhyun was began to wonder if this "Yunho hyung" thought of Ryeowook as just a waiter and a friend or as ...   He quickly pushed this thought out of his mind. Now he was being crazy.   Ryeowook and Kibum led the way to the restaurant. Feet tired of tramping through the cold snow, Kyuhyun asked when they would get there.   "It takes about 20 minutes." Kibum said with a shrug.   "Thanks for the coat Kyuhyunnie, I'm much warmer now." Ryeowook gave him a glowing smile.   It was the coat that Kyuhyun had given Ryeowook
