Kyuhyun was in a hurry one night as he will be able to see all his friends together. He went in a private room
inside a bar and saw Donghae sitting beside Hyukjae, together with Heechul, Shindong and Leeteuk. He was quite
surprise to see Sungmin inside sitting together with Siwon. They all looked at the magnae with those 'always late'
kind of stare.

"I didn't expect Sungmin sshi here." he said as he smiled at Sungmin. Sungmin looked at him with a short smile and
bowed a bit.

"We're all friends here, no reason for anybody to be left out." Donghae said while making circles on Hyukjae's
platinum hair.

"Yeah right... stay a little bit far from my Hyukjae!" he said as he sat in between the 2. They could only laugh
at the childishness of the magnae as he crossed his legs and his arms and made sure he's heavy enough that Donghae
couldn't push him away from Hyukjae. He can be cute at times especially when he brings out those horns and tail and
transform into that creepy little demon he used to be.

"Yah! Hyukjae is already mine!" Donghae said as he tried reaching for Hyukjae. "Get off of my Hyukjae!" Kyuhyun
just looked at Donghae as he cuddled on Hyukjae who doesn't seemed to be affected at all. "Yah! Hyukjae-ah... try
moving closer to Kyuhyun and you won't get a 'bite' tonight!" Hyukjae's eyes grew bigger and suddenly stood up
making Kyuhyun fall on the sofa.

"Sorry Kyuhyunnie... he threatens me!" Hyukjae said as he suddenly clings on to Donghae...
"Aish~" Kyuhyun looked sharply at Donghae but the older man just showed his dinosaur teeth with a very silly smile.

Suddenly, at the corner of his eyes, Kyuhyun saw Siwon and Sungmin talking and smiling at each other. He saw the
smile that he saw in one of the disturbing incidents he had back then, he wondered; how could Siwon
make Sungmin sshi smile like that? It seems like they are just talking about nonsensical things. He stood up walking
away from Donghae and Hyukjae.

"Yah! you two." they both looked up at Kyuhyun and the tension in the room suddenly grew. Siwon looked at him
without moving at all, wondering what could it be to make this spoiled magnae make another annoying scene. Kyuhyun
is looking at them both with his hands resting on his waist.

Kyuhyun suddenly sat between them and looked at Sungmin... "Yah Lee Sungmin..."

They all looked really tense at the possibility that Kyuhyun could have gotten his memory back and remembers that
he is not in good terms with Siwon... but-

"Stay away from my Siwon! This guy belongs to me!"
Kyuhyun wrapped his arms around Siwon which made everybody sighed with relief. Siwon could just look at Kyuhyun
without any expression at all. He's such a spoiled magnae, and he himself wondered why he could stand his annoying
attitude. Still, Siwon is happy that he can go back to how they were before. Sungmin could just sigh with a smile
as Donghae secretly elbowed him, checking whether he is ok with Kyuhyun's annoying and childish presence.

The group continued their drinking session until they were all drunk. Sungmin, who has the most control of his
alcohol intake, just watch them fall down one by one. Soon, Siwon, Kyuhyun and him are the only ones left as the
rest went home to take a rest.

"Siwon-ah..." Kyuhyun said, he has a very high alcohol tolerance which makes him the last man standing during
drinking sessions, although he is a bit tipsy right now. Siwon, on the other hand, did not drink at all which makes
him the most stable among all of them.

"You are my one and only best friend. Don't give your heart to anybody else." he said as he leaned his head on the
tall man's shoulder. Siwon chuckled a bit and looked at Sungmin, he thought shortly and remembered the time he and
saw Sungmin breaking his facade in front of him...

'I'm just wish I was the one who forgets so it wouldn't hurt this much. Giving up is not as easy as Kyuhyun
forgetting his memories in a snap!'

"Yah Cho Kyuhyun, get a grip. I need to tell you something." Siwon said seriously.

"Who needs to get a grip? I'm not yet drunk!" he said as he straighten up and showed Siwon that he can still manage.

"Oh? good then."

Sungmin could just quietly watch and listen as the two talk. He silently wish nothing from the past will be
brought up or nothing about him would be a part of this conversation... but he doubted it when Siwon looked at him
shortly. Only he, felt the intense of the sudden change of the air around the room. It was suffocating, the way
Siwon looked at him and then to Kyuhyun. Siwon-ah... please don't make or mention anything about me and Kyuhyun's
past...

"Have you really forgotten everything about Sungmin Hyung?"

Hearing this, Sungmin closed his eyes shortly, his silent prayes failed him again. He could just shook his head
and drank his wine. How could Siwon bring this up when they are all having fun? It is not the right time to talk
about that... even if their friends are not around anymore. He could have just cherished Kyuhyun's treatment right
now. Siwon has no idea how Sungmin wishes he could be in that position where he is being cherished by the magnae.
Whatever he is going to do or say now could be the end of their friendship again or worst, Sungmin and Kyuhyun's
friendship.

"You punched me twice in the face when I told you I've fallen in love with him... don't you remember?"

Kyuhyun made a tsch sound. "I cannot even remember how I met this fellow." he looked at Sungmin shortly and shook
his head. The oldest would just looked down when he saw Kyuhyun's eyes upset with the topic.

Siwon nodded and thought... "So... you really wouldn't care if I date him now, would you?"

"Who said you can date him?" Kyuhyun said angrily... "You're already mine, Choi Siwon... you cannot date anybody
else."

"I"m serious here, if you don't notice." Siwon looked at him in the eye showing seriousness and sincerity that
even the tipsy Kyuhyun straighten up and become serious and sober. He crossed his eyebrows as he sees Siwon's steady
expression about what he said earlier.
Whatever is so special about Sungmin sshi that you have to date him, you're still not allowed to date him! Even if he has
a beautiful eyes, even if he has an adorable smile... you cannot date him! Kyuhyun is not even aware that he is
having this thoughts but who cares? as long as his mouth don't betray him.

"You better start collecting your memories now before it's too late. I've decided to go all out for Sungmin-"

"Siwon-ah..." Sungmin called hoping to stop his dongsaeng from his nonsense. But Siwon just looked at him with
those sincere stares. The older man could just shake his head sending messages through his eyes such as 'please
stop making things worst.'

But Siwon just stared back at him and ignore his silent plead, he shift to Kyuhyun and smiled meaningfully. "If
you happen to remember anything about how you feel about him... I won't be willing to step back like
what I did before."

Kyuhyun crossed his eyebrows and looked at Sungmin who suddenly drink his wine with one gulp, listening to what
both guys are saying or maybe pretending not to hear anything at all because he didn't see the water starting to form
in the older man's eyes. He just saw Sungmin looking away knowing that magnae is looking.

He chuckled with sarcasm. "Go all out for him, for all I care. Sungmin sshi is just a memory I've forgotten. That's
it. Siwon-ah... I didn't know how it ended for the two of us but... I'd rather keep you as a friend than keep a lover
whom I can never remember."

He didn't mean to say those, especially with Sungmin in front of him. But just so he can shut Siwon up, he'd
rather show them how arrogantly bastard, Cho Kyuhyun is. Sorry, Sungmin sshi.

Siwon nodded and smiled a bit. "Good... that's good to hear." He, then, noticed the necklace Kyuhyun is wearing.
He knew what it was and the whole story about the heart puzzle necklace.
He laughed at Kyuhyun with a bit of sarcasm. "You keep on saying you don't want your past... but you still let some
things hang on to you like that. You're such a fool, Cho Kyuhyun."

Kyuhyun did not understand what Siwon meant by what he said, he watched the tall guy walked away holding Sungmin's
arm. He looked down when the two disappeared and suddenly hold on to the puzzle. "If you're talking about this... I
have a very simple answer. I just can't get myself to take this off even if I want to."

Outside the bar, Siwon stopped and checked on Sungmin...

"I'm really sorry that you have to hear those. Sungmin hyung." As much as he wanted to stick on what he said in front
of Kyuhyun, he knew Sungmin wouldn't like it. Still, it's too late as he has seen how harsh Kyuhyun is towards the
person they both love.

Sungmin sighed avoiding to look at Siwon in the eyes, he chuckled. "I've heard worst than that when he was in the
hospital. I'm ok." Siwon nodded and didn't noticed that Sungmin took a deep breath in silent. The older man stopped
and smiled.

"Wait..." he stopped as he shortly hold on to Siwon's arm; smiling, laughing bitterly... "I've heard those over
and over again..." he curled his nose up as the tears crept up his eyes but he smiled. "but it always hit me right
on the spot." he said as he hit his chest like freeing himself from being choked and then he looked at Siwon.

"Siwon-ah... I may need to stay behind you for a moment." he said as he walked behind Siwon and rested his
forehead on his dongsaeng's back as he free silent tears. Siwon
cannot see it but Sungmin's silent breathing from the mouth made him sure that the older man is crying.

Siwon gently closed his fist, the first time Sungmin lose his facade made him want to give up and support the two
but right now, after seeing how Kyuhyun treats his favourite hyung... he cannot bear the fact that Sungmin would
continue taking all those bashing and hurtful words just to get Kyuhyun back. He's has decided.

He is going to take his chances.
