Obviously this take place when MBLAQ still five

Tired. He was so tired. Mentally more than physically. Being a leader was hard and he already know that, but knowing it didn't really help. He was still exhausted.

          After a particularly tiring meeting with the company representative which was composed more of argument on MBLAQ future path, Seungho dragged his feet out of the meeting room and towards the practice room in the fourth floor.

          "Oh?" Seungho made a small noise at the emptiness of the room. His eyes searched for the clock on the wall. Oh... No wonder. It was already lunch time, almost over actually and his stomach growled, as result from forgoing his breakfast and all.

          He was hungry alright but the break was close to over and they had practice in a few minutes. He wouldn't have time for lunch. Guess he just need to skip- Wait! Something smelled nice.

          Seungho his heels, smile instantly lighting his tired face when he saw the young boy, his maknae standing at the door frame to the practice room with a sheepish grin and paper bag filled with undoubtfully, food. For the leader.

          "I knew the meeting would drag out longer." Mir commented, stepping towards the random couch placed at the corner of the room in case they wanted to lounge after tiring practice. "I got you some burger and fries and baked potatoes. I hope it's good enough." Mir said, setting down the large paper back on the couch, petting the space next to the paper bag.

          Seungho trotted to the couch and flopped down heavily, rummaging through the paper back. "Smell good. But this quite a lot. You haven't eaten?" He asked Mir whom had stood up again, walking past him and sat next to Seungho, fingers kneading into Seungho's tense shoulder.

          "I have. I just came back earlier from the other guys, I guess."

          "Did you go out with them?"

          Mir shook his head. "I ate alone. It's faster that way and I can bring back your lunch in time."

          Seungho pouted. "I don't like eating alone."

          Mir giggled. Sometimes he wondered whether he was the older ones. "I'm already full, hyung."

          "I lost my appetite." Seungho said sulkily, pushing away the paper bag but smiled again when he heard defeated sigh from Mir.

          Mir walked back to his original spot, taking out hamburger and shoved it into Seungho's hands. "Yea, you said that but your stomach sound like thunder." Mir nibbled on the fries, obviously already to full to eat another lunch but still forcing some in just to appease the leader.

          "I heard my name." Thunder trotted in the room, the other two members followed close behind. Thunder's eyes lit in curiosity but a frown adorned his face immediately while he pointed at Mir accusingly. "You said you're too full when I asked you out for lunch!"

          Mir blinked and grinned. "Urm... Well, GO hyung and Joon hyung were with you, weren't they?"

          "But I asked you out." Thunder retorted, pouting.

          "Hehe... Sorry hyung. Next time."

          "When is that? You always say next time!" Thunder said stubbornly and stomped away.

          "Oops?" Mir said, turning back to Seungho who was laughing silently with his mouth full of food.

          Seungho reached out and petted Mir's head adoringly. He felt fluttered at the way Mir prioritized him and proud that he had such loyalty from the youngest dongsaeng. All those hardwork, all those exhausting meeting felt nothing compared to the spirit and encouraging subtle gesture from Mir. His source of strength. Such a lovable maknae...
