Siwon

For the sixth time in just a matter of minutes, he ran his digits mindlessly over the little bumps that made up the first sentence of what looked to be a very promising novel. After a seventh and eighth time he tossed the draft aside and puffed up his cheeks in mild annoyance before laying his head on his desk. It was useless to try and get anything from the book besides a small bumping sensation on the pads of his fingers.

Before too long, each and every character’s name was Kyuhyun. They all sounded the same in his head and they all looked the same despite how the author might go about describing them. Tall, short, fat, skinny, blonde, or brunette, it didn’t seem to matter; each of them had a kind, beautiful face (just like he imagined the younger boy to have), a body that was soft to the touch with limbs that were long and lean, and a personality that was endearingly snarky. He couldn’t make heads or tails of the author’s intent, let alone story plot.

He let out a loud sigh and stood up. He pushed in his chair and called his boss to ask for the remainder of the day off. It had been pretty hard for Siwon to think about anything aside from Kyuhyun since the night at the karaoke bar, but after Ara had called earlier that day to remind him of the barbeque that night and ask if he wanted a ride from Kyuhyun, there was no hope of thinking about anything else.

Luckily, his boss let him off for the rest of the day and he could spend the next few hours before the gathering with his thoughts clearly set on Kyuhyun. He smiled and walked out of his office as he tried to decide what to bring to the barbeque. After quite a lot of thought for such a simple problem, he settled on a strawberry cheesecake from the local bakery. It had always been his mother’s favorite. He clutched it tightly to his chest and smiled as he got on the bus to head home.

“Siwon!” The familiar voice from the driver of the bus rang out happily as he took a seat near the front.

“Hey Shindong, how are things?” Siwon asked smiling and trying to keep his attention on the driver.

“Oh, about the same as always” he replied happily. “Special occasion?” he asked staring at the cheesecake.

“Huh?” Siwon said confused. “Oh, this?” He motioned towards the cheesecake and Shindong his lips in response before turning his attention back to the road. If Siwon had seen it he would have laughed and probably offered him a piece.

“Yah, I guess you could say that. I have a… a date tonight” he said biting the side of his lower lip.

He knew perfectly well that it wasn’t true, but the friendly bus driver didn’t have to know that. Besides, he wanted to try it out and see how it sounded. Turns out it sounded quite good. The thought of a date with Kyuhyun, another boy, he reminded himself, didn’t bother him at all. In fact, he couldn’t help but fantasize that it really was one.

Shindong smiled at the cheery reflection in his rear-view mirror. Siwon looked absolutely giddy and as the driver pulled the bus over at his stop, he wished him luck.

“Have an amazing time,” he said smiling “and you’ll have to bring this date of yours around sometime when the two of you get serious. I bet she’s a knockout. Regardless of whether you can see her or not” he added playfully with a chuckle.

“Drop-dead gorgeous. I’d bet my eyesight on it” Siwon joked back.

Shindong laughed and drove away thinking about cheesecake and beautiful women.

Siwon walked, or maybe… just maybe, skipped into his house and placed the desert in the fridge before turning on some relaxing music. He figured he had to at least try and distract himself until 6 rolled around or he might go crazy. Kyuhyun was going to pick him up and he figured he’d rather not look like a nervous wreck when the younger boy got there. He pulled on some sweats and ed his shirt, letting it drop to the floor, leaving him in a tight white tank top. He lay down on his bed and closed his eyes while trying to imagine how the night would go. It had to be perfect. It just had to be.

***

The room was bright with sparkling lights that cascaded across the elegant walls of the large room. The music was soft and soothing and Kyuhyun was in his arms. The younger boy was staring up at him, visually tracing the features of his face before pausing to stare lovingly at Siwon’s closed eyes. Small, nearly imperceptible wrinkles formed near the corners of his eyelids, alluding to the soft smile present on his lips. Kyuhyun couldn’t help but smile back as he leaned his head on the older boy’s broad shoulder as they continued to spin in circles, held in each other’s arms. The music slowed and Siwon swayed Kyuhyun back and forth on the empty dance floor to each languid beat.

“Siwon, do you love me?” the younger boy asked causing Siwon’s eyes to flutter open.

Siwon slowed his feet and brought their bodies to a halt. He delicately tilted Kyuhyun’s face towards his and kissed the hand he’d held tenderly in his as they had waltzed through the night, while keeping his eyes focused on Kyuhyun’s gaze. He removed his other hand from Kyuhyun’s small waist and brushed the hair from the younger boy’s eyes before placing it softly on his cheek.

“My Kyu” he breathed out as he ran his thumb along the younger boy’s jaw, “you already know the answer to that question” he finished, placing another kiss on the boy’s hand.

Kyuhyun closed his eyes and moved closer to Siwon, effectively eliminating any space formerly separating their bodies. He removed his hand from Siwon’s and wrapped his arms tightly around the older boy while leaning his head further into Siwon’s caress.

He lifted his body onto his toes and whispered sensually into the older boy’s ear.

“Say it.”

The demand sent a shiver down Siwon’s spine and he instinctively wrapped his free arm around Kyhuhyun’s waist. He looked down at Kyuhyun’s hooded eyelids and he tangled his fingers through his hair to gently pull the younger boy’s head back, exposing his long white neck. He dipped his head forward and breathed in against Kyuhyun’s collar bone causing the boy to exhale quietly in response. He slowly pressed firm kisses up the expanse of the younger boy’s neck, slowly making his way towards his ear.

“I love you.” He said, long and drawn out in a low, soft tone, pausing just below Kyuhyun’s earlobe.

Kyuhyun turned and tilted his head to press his forehead against Siwon’s. Siwon closed his eyes again and captured Kyuhyun’s lips in his own. Kyuhyun sighed into the kiss and moved his arms up around Siwon’s neck before pulling away to say it back.

“I lo…”

‘Unknown Number’

Kyuhyun’s face became hazy and Siwon tried desperately to hold on as the younger boy started to fade away into nothingness.

“You what?” Siwon pleaded, but Kyuhyun was gone and everything was black.

‘Unknown Number’

***

Siwon groaned loudly and tried to hold on to the sharp details of his dream. It could possibly be the best dream he had ever had. He rubbed his face and tried to physically reorient himself as he reached out for his phone. At some point it had fallen off the bed and the mechanical voice was getting on his nerves when he finally managed to locate it and pick it up off the floor.

“I swear, if I hear ‘unknown number’ one more time…” he muttered tiredly as he brought the device up to his ear.

“Hello?” He asked, practically groaning in irritation at whoever had disturbed his beautiful dream.

“Um, it’s Kyuhyun, I’m here. I knocked… are you home?”

“Huh? What? Oh”

Siwon jolted up in his bed, fully awake at hearing the real Kyuhyun on the other line. He pushed the button on his watch and another annoying mechanical voice informed him that it was 5:57. Oh crap, he thought to himself as he bolted out of the bed.

“Um, just a second” he replied breathily as he tried to smooth his hair down and slow his heart beat. Whether it was from the dream or waking up so suddenly, he wasn’t quite sure, though he strongly suspected the former. So much for not looking like a wreck when he gets here, he thought annoyed at his stupid body and its stupid desire to sleep at the most inopportune times and have inappropriate dreams about the boy who just happened to be standing at his front door.

He walked to the door and opened it slowly. He gulped uncomfortably and tried to smile as he hung up the phone.

“Hi Kyu. Please, come in.” He motioned for the younger boy to enter and he nervously ran his hands through his hair.

“Kyuhyun… thanks” Kyuhyun replied very quietly, smiling shyly as he walked through the front door.

He watched as Siwon’s fingers threaded through his short black hair and he unconsciously lifted his hand to his own head and did the same.

Siwon realized how he must look to the younger boy and he freaked out a little at the thought.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to but I kind of dozed off for a second so I haven’t really had the chance to change. Do you mind if I…”

“Go ahead” Kyuhyun said quickly before Siwon had finished. “Just hurry before Ara has the chance to burn down our entire apartment building.”

Siwon laughed a little and walked promptly towards his room. He pulled his tank off over his head and felt through his closet, searching for the familiar feel of silk. He pulled out the grey silk button-down and pulled it on over his bare chest. He opened his jeans drawer and pulled on the top pair before putting on his shoes. When he had finally finished dressing he pressed the button on his watch; 6:10. He breathed in and out deeply a few times with his back pressed against his bedroom door. He could almost feel Kyuhyun’s lips against his and he had to fight the urge to run out there and try it for real.

“Just a dream” he whispered out loud shaking his head. “Just a dream. Just forget it.”

Yeah… right.

He opened his door and walked back out into the front room.

“Ready when you are” he said smiling widely.

He knew it was wishful thinking, but maybe if the night went well he wouldn’t be stuck just dreaming about Kyu’s lips… 

So I am super super nervous about posting this chapter. I thought about rewriting it. I didn't plan to write a dream, but I just started typing and all of the sudden, there it was, and I couldn't bring myself to delete it. Anyways, I hope you like it. I've had a bit of writer's block and I guess this is what comes out of that frustration... :) 
Please keep commenting! It makes me want to write the next chapter faster and better ;)
