My Hot Babe
It's a live interview. With a fan audience. Hyukjae's streaming it on his laptop. Which is on his stomach. He's lying in bed.
KRYD will have a concert. The next day. This was to give their fans a chance. To see them. Speak to them. Get their autographs. Give them enouragement. Gifts.
The questions are interesting. They're from a board. With over a hundred notes. Stuck on by fans. The MC pulls them off at random. Gives them to a member in turn. After reading the question. Which gets translated.
It's good so far. They're asked about songs. Favourite album. Concepts. Style. What food they enjoy. What places they'd like to visit. Who's their ideal type...
Hyukjae sits up carefully. Nervous. Kyuhyun got the question. Ryeowook's beside him. Then Donghae.
The translator repeats Kyuhyun's answer. The MC smiles. Fans cheer a little. Laugh. The following question is given to Ryeowook. It turns out to be about kids. Ryeowook answers jokingly. He wants twelve kids. There's cheers. Giggles.
The MC pulls off another questions. It's for Donghae. Who's sitting with a smile. Gorgeous as ever. Calm. He raises his eyes to the MC. Who asks. Steps to Donghae. Hands him the note.
Ryeowook leans towards him. Hugs his arm.
The fans are quiet. After the MC asked. The members wait for the translator.
They all get quiet too. Hyukjae's heart drops. He sees the panic in the members. Can't understand why Donghae's smile is bigger. Staring at the note.
"Who's the last person I kissed?" Donghae repeats. He laughs. Looks around. "A bit boring that this came to me, isn't it?"
"I'll answer that one!" Kyuhyun says. Standing. Raising his hand.
It's awkward. Silent again.
"I can answer..." Donghae says. Quiet. Note still in his hand.
"Don't answer," Hyukjae whimpers. Afraid. Of the fans. Their silence. The tension.
"I kissed my beautiful nephews!" Kyuhyun declares.
Yesung laughs. Ryeowook chuckles. Some fans laugh. Donghae just smiles. His mic is lowered. But his eyes are still on the note. He looks up. Passes the question to Ryeowook.
But as he does so... he also murmurs, "I kissed the person I love, of course..."
It wouldn't have been heard. If everyone wasn't so
