Men in love are real fools
Don't Forget Me“Wookie,” he whispers quietly to his ear, shaking slightly his shoulder. The boy shivers, pressing the teddy bear he is holding, turning to the other side. Yesung smiles, his cheek and shaking his shoulder again. He does not want to wake him up – Wookie looks so satisfied – but if Wookie sleeps a bit longer, they will miss the plane. Wookie growls quietly, but his eyes slowly open. They find the man leaning over him, giving a loud yawn. He is so cute, Yesung thinks at the moment. Fine tears sparkle on his eyelashes and it takes a few seconds before he is finally able to start to perceive.
“You have to get up, we are leaving.” Yesung talks softly – he knows how unpleasant noisy sounds are in the morning. The boy stretches his limbs, sitting up slowly. He looks around sleepily, trying to orient himself. Yesung is looking at his face – the boy looks as the cutest person on the planet now. Yesung cannot resist as ever, reaching out. He must touch him, him. He doesn’t even realize he is slowly becoming addicted to these touches. He needs boy’s presence so much...
“I don’t want to leave,” Wookie whines, giving Yesung a pleading look. Yesung sighs.
“Me too, Wookie, but we have to. Do you remember what I told you yesterday? We will come back here soon,” he hugs him, pressing him to his chest. Wookie just hides his face in Yesung’s shirt.
“Can we stay here just a little bit longer? Just one day? Please,” he mumbles. Yesung really tries hard, but he just cannot tell him “no.” It is impossible to say.
“Okay. But we have to leave in the evening, not later,” he finally replies. Wookie squeaks cheerfully, hugging tightly Yesung’s neck.
“Thank you.”

Two days have passed since they returned and Yesung still cannot chase away the memory of the last evening on the beach. He almost kissed him. Kissed...
For god’s sake... What happened to him? What was he thinking? Did he go insane?! It seems Wookie has already forgotten it. He looks calm as ever... But Yesung cannot drive it out of his mind. He is not sure what happened. But... Damn it!
“Yesung, are you listening?” Siwon waves in front of his face and Yesung jerks.
“What? I’m sorry, I had a think about something,” he looks at him with an apology in his eyes.
“Again? You do it quite often lately, don’t you think?” Siwon says with raised eyebrows.
“I have to think about Wookie all the time,” Yesung sighs. The boy has influenced him so much that he cannot even focus his mind on the work.
“It seems to be serious,” Siwon mutters. Actually he knows what happened. He went through this as well. The feeling when he couldn’t concentrate on anything. He couldn’t work because his thoughts ran always somewhere far away. But it seems Yesung does not even realize it.
“What do you mean?”
But he really is not going to tell him something. He has to figure it out on his own.
“Nothing,” he shakes his head, smiling brightly. “Just try to work a little bit or you will have to stay here overnight. I have already given you your papers. Your another case will be led by judge Park, so be careful,” he frowns. Both of them know what kind of corruptible person he is.
“I know, don’t be afraid. There is no case I couldn’t win,” he smiles with confidence. Siwon grins.
“Mr. Perfect, aren’t you?”
At the moment Siwon’s cell phone rings out in his pocket. He takes it out, receiving the call.
“I know, darling. I’ll be there in a few minutes,” he says with a soft voice, hanging up.
“Let me guess. Heechul?” Yesung make a face. Siwon just nods.
“Yeah, he is waiting for me outside. I would be already with him, if you weren’t thinking about everything but work,” he looks at him with accusing eyes.
“Get out,” Yesung laughs. Siwon just smiles back, saying goodbye and leaving the office. Yesung shakes his head. Men in love are real fools.

Wookie sits on his bed, leaning against a wall behind him, pressing his blue teddy bear. No, he is not scared or something. He is just already used to it – at least he repeats it to himself again and again. But he is not scared, really. Maybe a little upset? He sighs.
He still cannot forget what happened on the beach. His body shivered all the night, although he could not explain what he was feeling at all. But he is still feeling it now. The slight trembling going through his body every time he imagines Yesung’s face... What is this feeling? Why does it come to him over and over? He still cannot chase away the memory of Yesung’s fingers his lips. He was leaning over him. He was so close. It looked as he would like to kiss him. But he didn’t. Why not? Or... Why should he do it? What is he thinking about? He shakes his head, placing fingers to his hair and grabbing it. What is it? He does not know this feeling and he does not know what to think about it. Is it pleasant or not? Or...or... He sees Yesung again so close, he feels his warm breath on his face...
He whines desperately. At this moment he does not like the feeling at all. He can feel the shivering all over his body; butterflies are flying through his stomach... It is awkward and pleasant in the same time. He is so confused. He doesn’t know what to do... He doesn’t want to think about it. But he cannot chase away the face...
Then, redemptive thought runs through his mind. Piano. Maybe it could help him to stop thinking. From the moment they came back he didn’t play. It didn’t even cross his mind. But now he would love to play. He looks out the window – it is already dark. Yesung will return soon. Could he play a little bit before Yesung comes back? He places his teddy bear on the pillow, standing up. Lately, he doesn’t take it everywhere with him as he used to do. He needs it only when he sleeps alone. When Yesung is there, he does not need any stuff toy. But Yesung sleeps with him only if there is a storm. He wouldn’t mind if Yesung stayed with him every night. He loves falling asleep in his arms... With all the kisses placed on his forehead, with his soft palms his hair, with Yesung’s presence... This is what he needs for being happy. Yesung’s presence. The feeling he belongs to him. He opens the door as he wants to head downstairs. But instead he runs right into Yesung’s arms.
