"I'm not avoiding you, I'm just too busy right now!" Sungmin said as he went out of the house after making some breakfast. Kyuhyun
tried his best to wake up early just to stop the older from going to school. His plans of making Sungmin his has been on hold and he
cannot laugh his infamous laugh because he keeps on choking whenever Sungmin will say he has something on.

How can Sungmin be inconsiderate? How about being the older brother who should be taking good care of his younger brother? He keeps
on saying he is busy; that he has to do this and that. He's barely at home! Kyuhyun would often wake up with a ready breakfast for
him. When he's at school he can barely see Sungmin's shadow and when it's time for them to go home, Sungmin will say he still need to
finish this and that.

Kyuhyun swears Sungmin is avoiding him. Just look how haste he walks away from the magnae? Kyuhyun pouted. He misses the times when he
would rehearse for the musical and getting kisses from the older. They're alone in the house now! They can do it more than they were
able to do it before! Tsch. He stomped his feet as he went back to bed. Watch out Sungmin. Once I've had you... you won't get away!

******************************************

On the next Saturday, Donghae sat in a corner of one of the practice rooms. He is ready for his first day of training with the famous
Lee Eunja. He was waiting for Eunja to come to tell him the things he needs to do for the performance. Donghae is very excited.
It will be his first on stage performance and he'll do it with his favourite noona.

He had finished his song and even if it is quite challenging, he managed to polish it in no time. Thanks to Sungmin who was patient
enough not to shove a mic stand on his throat for changing his mind for a million times while arranging the song. Although he wasn't
able to get the chance to meet Eunja's cousin when he was recording the song, the older lady insisted that her cousin is one hell of
a headache thus she will be the one to guard him while recording, he still manage to do the editing and polishing for
his own song. Eunja approved on this and he just can't wait to perform it. Who is Eunja noona's cousin? He can't wait to work
with him too. He's quite sure he's as good as the older lady when it comes to dance. Donghae was busy listening to his player when the
door opened all of a sudden...

"Oh!" he exclaimed as he pointed on the person who came. It was not Eunja noona. It was a guy with almost the same height as his,
hair is spooned up and froze as well when he saw Donghae inside the room.

"Aren't you Kyuhyun's friend?"
"Aren't you Sungmin's friend?"

They both exclaimed at the same time. Donghae looked away. He knows how Sungmin is suffering with Kyuhyun's presence. He could just
see how Sungmin agonize his everyday life going home to the same house as Kyuhyun. That arrogant, good for nothing jerk! He's quite
sure this friend is no different. Birds of the same feather flock together, right? He hopes Hyukjae is just somehow lost and entered
the wrong room. He also hope he has nothing to do with Eunja because it probably means world damnation.

"What are you doing here?" Donghae ask. Right, as a person who is not from Performace Arts why is Hyukjae here in their practice
room? There is no space for Statistics and Probability here. His eyes glared sharply upon seeing Hyukjae confidently walking in front
of him as if a superstar and dropping his bag in one of the corners.

"Got a problem?" Hyukjae asked shortly. Donghae made a tsk sound and rolled his eyes. The rudeness is overloading, and it's not
like he's that handsome. Donghae cannot even see any good feature in Hyukjae's face. His eyes are too small and those lips are like
too girly... and he's just too skinny. Please! However, seeing the walking stick confidently sat down, he quite guessed that he is
Eunja's cousin. Donghae manipulated his player and rewind it on Hyukjae's part before eyeing on the guy. He chuckled. The hell with
that attitude, his singing voice is not even good. He needed to edit and re-edit that voice over and over again. At least Kyuhyun
has something to be proud of. No wonder he's just a sidekick.

They both sat at opposite corners of the room and ignored each other. Both guys focused on their music player. Donghae ignored the
fact that Hyukjae's voice and just tried to make some simple steps while listening to the music while Hyukjae was looking up
every now and then to check out Donghae.

This guy got the looks. But does he have the moves? Donghae looks way too gentle for Hyukjae. He wonders whether Donghae can even
keep up to his noona's dancing skills...or to his skills. He was listening to the same song in his player and listened well to their
raps. The girl is mine~ Donghae's whispering raps on his ears made him smirk a little. Looking at the quiet man opposite him, he
thinks the way Donghae whispered in his ear is indeed y. Maybe looks can be deceiving. Maybe Donghae isn't gentle the way Hyukjae
thinks. He should look forward to this.

Donghae was doing some adlib with his hands and turning his head smoothly side to side. Hyukjae sighed and stood up. How can such
place in school be this boring? It bores him that he even had the thought of Donghae being y. Tsch.

"Yah. What are you doing?" he asked as he walked towards Donghae. Donghae looked at him shortly and ignored him. Hyukjae looked at
him and took away one of his earphones and plugged it in his ear. Donghae straightened up but just watch Hyukjae as he plugged the
earphone on his ear. He isn't that bad looking in close up. I wanna love you I can't live without you~
It's the song that they'll be performing. So Donghae is trying to dance into this.

He has already contributed to this song. Eunja noona asked him to sing the first part. Although he doesn't know how his singing ability
is, he knows he was able to do so...well. He is already learning the song and he has just scrutinized Donghae's voice a while ago.

"Yah..." Hyukjae called as he give back the earphone. "Do know what Eunja noona wants us to do? He wants us to fight over her on
stage and see who can love her better. Get what I mean?"

"Am I supposed to listen to you?" Donghae asked shortly. He wouldn't want to waste time listening to Hyukjae. He's just like Kyuhyun,
arrogant and rude. He's quite sure he'll never get to like this person. And even if he is Eunja's cousin that wouldn't give him the credit of being a good dancer or anything.

"Aish~" Hyukjae complained. "Yah. If you want to help her you have to listen to me."

"Where is she?"

"She's going to be late today."

Donghae nodded and placed the other piece of earphones in his ear making Hyukjae pissed. "Yah. Listen to me. Yah!"

"Yah! you think yah is my name?!" Donghae asked irritatedly as he took off the same earphone."You keep on calling me yah! Yah! tsch." his eyes rolled shortly and his mouth was left agaped.

Hyukjae was quite surprised with Donghae's temper, he was wondering what he did to the other man making him agitated. "Oh. Yah!"

"One more yah and you'll get it!"

Donghae stood up and walked towards another corner to sit down and listen to the melody again. Hyukjae cannot believe he was being
ignored. He breathe out some air as he looked away and chuckled annoyingly.

************************************

"Our Sungmin~" Chaerin said in a high pitch voice. Sungmin could just force a smile upon hearing her. He has declined her but she
offered to give him an evaluation card which can affect his grades this sem and would be able to effortlessly pass his Stage
Performance course. Furthermore, err... there's a danger lurking at home and he knows Kyuhyun is far more dangerous now that they are
the only two left. If he was bold enough to kiss him despite having all their family members at home, what more can he do to the older
now that they are alone? He wouldn't want to know.

"Tah!" Chaerin handed him a music player making him jump out of his thoughts. "I've downloaded the song so all you have to do is to
memorize it and then we can start with the rehearsals."

"Oh. Thank you noona." he said as he looked at the paper.

"Yah! Don't show me the face ok. I won't be stripping you again unlike last year. You're fully clothed on stage so don't worry."
Sungmin nodded and freed  willing smile this time. At least he doesn't need to strip again. He should rememeber to see his English
teacher so he won't disappoint anyone. He should learn this song soon. The busier he is the better.

Chaerin likes working with him because of his hardworking attitude. He hasn't graduated yet but he works professionally.
"Noona, do you know who's going to be Eunja noona's other partner?"

"Oh... her cousin from Business Department, Lee Hyukjae. Do you know him?"

Sungmin was shocked when he heard the name. Of course he knows who that man is, he's the famous side-kick of Kyuhyun. What could
happen to Donghae? He might be bullied by that man.

*************************************

"Alright, Hyukjae you'll be the first man. Donghae you'll be the second man."  Eunja didn't waste time when she opened the door and
started commanding the 2 guys as she takes off her jacket. She tied her hair and didn't even bother to look at the guys inside. She
stood with her hands on her waist and clapped loudly wanting everyone be ready. Eunja snapped... "Oh yeah... Donghae yah... come here."

Innocent Donghae walked towards the unexpectedly frightening noona. Eunja smiled and hugged him tightly. "Thanks a lot! Oh my gosh I
seriously love you!!" she let go of him and kissed him in the forehead. Donghae could just swallow at the sudden change of her mood.
She's quite...bipolar "You're my angel. I mean, this song is really daebak! I seriously think its meant for me to choose you this
time instead of someone else. Donghae ah, I love you~~!!!"

Donghae smiled when he heard Eunja praising him. The other guy was left out wondering why Eunja is overly exaggerated in praising
Donghae. The guy hasn't even dance yet. Did he miss something or was he not able to ask an important question when he recorded the
song?

"Wait... he-" Hyukjae said stupidly. "Did he write the song too?" Eunja nodded with a smile.

"He arranged everything, from your ugly singing to the beat to the lyrics and everything. He's my angel so you better treat him
properly!"

Hyukjae swallowed and looked at Donghae. He should remember next time to call him in the name and not just 'yah'.

"His voice is not really ugly, just that..." he heard Donghae saying. "His voice is not for smooth singing so..."

"He can't sing, that's the truth. Alright shall we start?"

Donghae crossed his eyebrows shortly upon hearing and seeing the girl turning her back and getting ready for their first rehearsal.
Eunja noona monster mode: ON

**********************************

Weekend...finally!

Sungmin was busy cleaning the mansion one weekend. He looked forward to doing his chores since he almost stay in school for the
whole week helping Donghae with his song, attending his intensive English class and rehearsing the routine with Chaerin. Of course,
his regular school day isn't counted to that. He needs to pass some research paper on Asian Literature and has a report to do on
Contemporary Arts. Indeed being able to attend school with miniman school fees demand more work. Err... and avoiding Kyuhyun really
takes a lot of effort.

He was at the attic trying to clear up the things there. He was in a ladder stretching his arms to wipe away the dust off of the
ceiling fan. It was very quiet but he likes the peacefulness of the dirty place. A stress reliever, a good cardio work out and a
good place to practice the song he's been trying to memorise for the past week now.

[All the girls I've been with]
[Things I've seen it takes much to impress]
[But sure enough you go it makes your soul]
[stand out from all the rest baby]

He was busy stretching his arm to wipe the tough dust of the ceiling fan and is busy having his own solo concert while tiptoeing on
the ladder that he wasn't able to see the playful monster standing behind him.

Kyuhyun initially wanted to shock the hell out of Sungmin but the older's shirt is quite tempting to play with. The magnae used his
index and middle finger to hold the hemline of Sungmin's shirt and lift it a bit making sure his playful fingers wouldn't touch the
older as he looked under it. He smiled slyly. Sungmin's skin seems to be a tempting heaven; smooth and fair that seemed to be
inviting anyone to have a look or touch. The curve of his lower back made Kyuhyun the side of his lips and smiled again. The
magnae crossed his eyebrows shortly when he saw the final view at the right side of Sungmin's lowerback... He looked up. Sungmin is
still busy with his singing and cleaning. A smirk on his lips.

"I didn't know you have a tattoo there."

*Author's note: Short update tonight^^ I want to
see some Eunhae...but not that much hahaha.
Oh...Kyuhyun saw something ink in Sungmin's skin *y eyes*
I've always wanted to write something about that
tattoo...now i have the chance *rubbing my palms together*
