Chapter 5 It was 5 more days until Kyuhyun and Jongwoon’s ‘date’. Not much happened in those 5 days. Well, nothing except that our 4 friends exchanged house keys with each other. They all trusted each other completely, and besides being very good friends, Donghae en Hyukjae’s relationship was improving by the second.   The key exchange did change quite a bit. If there would be a stranger keeping an eye on them, it would be impossible for him to tell who lived in which house. Sometimes, when Kyuhyun came back early from work and Donghae was not home yet, he would find Hyukjae sitting in his living room watching a movie or Jongwoon playing one of Kyuhyun’s games on the Xbox. Or sometimes, when everyone was out, and Kyuhyun was free that day, he could spent hours in Hyukjae and Jongwoon’s house before any of them came home. All 4 of them now basically had 2 places to live.   It was 1 more day until Kyuhyun’s so called date with Jongwoon when his phone rang.   “Hello?”   “Kyuhyun, please tell me you can work from 11 in the morning until 8 in the evening tomorrow!”   It was his boss.   “Well.. Actually, I have plans tomorrow,” Kyuhyun answered honestly. He and Jongwoon had agreed to go to town tomorrow at 10 in the morning, to hang out. Town could be pretty busy, so Kyuhyun had already planned to hold Jongwoon’s hand with the excuse that he didn’t want to lose him in the crowd. That sounds like a waterproof plan doesn’t it?   “Please Kyuhyun-ah, you are my last hope, everyone called in sick.”   Kyuhyun could hear the desperate tone in his boss' voice, and he knew for a fact that his boss would be begging him on his knees if Kyuhyun was standing in front of him right now.   “Fine...”   “You are going to be employee of the month! Thanks a lot, Kyuhyun!” His boss exclaimed happily, and he hung up fast, so Kyuhyun had no longer the chance to change his mind.     Kyuhyun sighed, this was just his luck. Guess his plan wasn’t that waterproof after all.   He called Jongwoon to inform him that he had to work tomorrow, and that they had to reschedule their ‘friends day out’ to another day, but Jongwoon had a better idea. He would pick Kyuhyun up at 8 in the evening, at his work, and maybe they could go to the park from there instead.   Kyuhyun agreed on this idea, and when he laid down the phone he was grinning again. He had looked forward to some alone time with Jongwoon for the entire week, and after his boss called, all his hopes for this 'alone time' had shattered. But it turned out to be for nothing; he was still going to see Jongwoon tomorrow!     ✭✭✭✭✭     That evening Kyuhyun didn’t feel too well. Donghae noticed it and felt Kyuhyun’s forehead.   “I think you have a fever, let me go get the thermometer.”   He walked out of the living room, and returned less than 2 minutes later with a thermometer in his hand. He stuck it in Kyuhyun’s mouth and waited for it to finish its measuring.   Donghae turned out to be right, Kyuhyun was having a mild fever of 38.3 degrees. He left to the kitchen hurriedly and promised Kyuhyun to come back with a bowl of chicken soup. After all, Kyuhyun couldn’t get sick now, he was having his long awaited date with Jongwoon tomorrow!   After eating the chicken soup, Kyuhyun went straight to bed, hoping that the fever will be gone when he wakes up the next day. He didn’t want to make his boss stressed again, and most of all, he didn’t want to call off his 'date' with Jongwoon. He'd really looked forward to it, so no fever should dare to ruin it for him.      ✭✭✭✭✭     The next morning, Kyuhyun felt much better.   Donghae still insisted on him measuring Kyuhyun’s temperature though. The result was 37.6 degrees. Still slightly higher than normal, but Kyuhyun felt good enough to go to work and he didn’t feel the urge to call Jongwoon to cancel their ‘date’.   Throughout the day, Kyuhyun started to slowly feel better. And around the evening he'd even forgotten that he was sick earlier.   Kyuhyun still had to work
