The first semester flew by fast and it was already the beginning of the fourth month. Kyuhyun’s belly started to show a little bit and his mood swings were getting even… severe.

 

“Siwon-ssi~”

One evening Kyuhyun stepped into Siwon’s office, fingers clutching around the hem of his over sized t-shirt that reached the middle of his thighs while a dejected look was painted on his face.

“What’s wrong Kyuhyun? Are you hurt?” Siwon was alarmed by the sad tone of the surrogate, immediately stepping out of his desk and walking toward him.

Kyuhyun slowly shook his head, his eyes not leaving his bare feet as he lowly whispered “My clothes don’t fit me anymore”

“What?” Siwon puzzlingly asked, nearing his face a little bit forward because he couldn’t hear him clearly.

“I have nothing to wear except these ugly sweat pants!” Kyuhyun suddenly snapped, pulling on his pants to prove his point.

“Kyuhyun, they’re not ugly and we can go buy you new clothes, okay?” Siwon assured, putting his hand on the younger’s shoulder to calm him down.

However, his words only managed to make Kyuhyun the more upset as he shrugged off his hand and stomped his foot on the ground as he loudly exclaimed “I don’t want new clothes! I want my clothes to fit me!”

Siwon sighed, closing his eyes momentarily before looking at Kyuhyun again and calmly saying “Kyuhyun, you’re pregnant… this is bound to happen”

Suddenly, Kyuhyun started crying, his sobs abruptly echoed around the office from how too loud they were, that it made Siwon jump in his place from the surprise.

“Oh, please stop crying”

Siwon pleaded, not really able to handle it especially since the surrogate was now crying like a baby, sniffing, sobbing, and hiccupping with a hitched voice. Not a way a man cries but a new born when he’s hungry and calling for his mom to hold him.

The boy kept on weeping for a couple of minutes while Siwon just stood there waiting for him to stop. He harshly rubbed his tired face with his palms as he silently cursed the hormones that were making his life that hard lately.

Nevertheless, as he raised his arms, his pajama shirt slipped off and his biceps showed from under it, which seemed to freeze Kyuhyun’s tears. The boy’s eyes bulged out for a minute, noting how muscled Siwon’s arms were and how there were veins standing out.

When Siwon noticed the sudden silence, he dropped his arms and puzzlingly examined the quiet figure in front of him who was repeatedly blinking at him, looking adorable in Siwon’s opinion… that until he opened his mouth.

“L-Look at your body all muscled! I’m faaaat”

Siwon’s eyes popped out, dumbfounded when Kyuhyun started crying again. He grabbed on his arms and leaned to his eye level to make his words clear.

“You’re not fat, Kyuhyun! We talked about this before”

Kyuhyun’s face expression softened for a second before his eyes narrowed, wiping his tears with the back of his hands while sending a glare to the man in front of him.

“It’s your fault!”

“Mine?” Siwon’s eyebrows shot to his hairline as he questionably eyed him.

“You’re the one who planted this baby in me!” Kyuhyun retorted before pouting his lips and hanging his head low.

Siwon sighed, withdrawing his hands as he defeatedly stated “Okay, I’m sorry. What can I do to make it up to you?”

“Make my pants fit again!” Kyuhyun yelled as he snapped his head up and determinedly stared at Siwon.

“Okay okay. How about we start those yoga classes Dr.Park suggested”

Siwon’s words caught Kyuhyun’s attention as the boy sniffed a couple of times before softly whispering “Will it help?”

“Yes” Siwon assured, although he didn’t want to lie to Kyuhyun, but he would have to figure out a way to avoid another outburst like that.

Lost in his thoughts, he was startled when Kyuhyun gripped on his pinkie finger and as their eyes met, he couldn’t believe how Kyuhyun’s expression changed that fast. His face was still glistening from the recent tears while his orbs had something really tender in them.

“Siwon-ssi?”

He gently called and Siwon gulped before answering “Yes”

“C-Can you sleep next to me tonight?” He shyly asked, eyes adorably blinking as he tugged on Siwon’s finger.

“W-What”

Siwon’s mind momentarily out, trying to figure out if he heard right.

“Because I can’t comfortably sleep lately, I read on the net that I need a bolster to help me. Since it’s late and we can’t have one… can I borrow your body for tonight?”

Kyuhyun innocently explained, the words naturally flowing out of his mouth and making Siwon fidget in his place.

“I’m not sure that’s a good idea, Kyuhyun”

Kyuhyun’s eyes got watery again at the rejection, blinking a sole tear before speaking “Because my body is disgusting?”

Siwon cursed under his breath before he spoke “No! Oh my god! Fine… you can borrow my body tonight”

Kyuhyun’s lips etched into a beautiful smile as he tenderly looked at Siwon.

“Siwon-ssi?”

“What now” Siwon replied, agitated about how he seemed to be played by those mood swings. However, his frustration was soon gone when Kyuhyun tiptoed and planted a peck on his cheek after exclaiming “Thank you”

He then widely smiled before turning around and exiting the office, leaving Siwon staring at him in surprise as he lifted his hand to touch the spot Kyuhyun just kissed.

...

 

Later that night, Siwon was standing in the kitchen, putting the dirty dishes from dinner into the dish washer machine when he heard a few light steps heading toward him.

“I’m ready to sleep” Kyuhyun exclaimed, catching Siwon’s attention as he nervously shifted his gaze to look at him.

“Already?” He anxiously asked since he had been thinking about Kyuhyun’s request ever since the surrogate asked him to let him use his body for the night. He didn’t know if it was such a good idea considering the way their relationship seemed to deepen lately, but he also couldn’t say no to Kyuhyun’s comfort.

The younger shyly nodded with his sight fixed on the floor, thinking as well about how his hormones seemed to play with him because he would never ask Siwon so willingly to sleep next to him.

“Okay” Siwon simply said before drying his hands with a towel and exiting the kitchen with Kyuhyun trailing behind him.

When they stepped into the surrogate’s bedroom, Siwon stood by the bed as he waited for Kyuhyun to tell him what to do.

“How should I lie down?” He unsurely asked, shifting his eyes between Kyuhyun and the bed.

The boy slowly walked toward his bed, sitting on the edge as he motioned for Siwon to sit as well.

“Lie on your side”

Kyuhyun’s face turned tinted red as he suddenly took notice of what he really just did. He timidly bit on his bottom lip as he cursed whatever was causing him to act that way. His heart was already beating rapidly in its ribcage just like whenever he and Siwon were in the same room.

Not until the bed dipped in that he snapped out of his thoughts and turned to see Siwon lying on the bed back facing him.

Kyuhyun slowly climbed on as well, contemplating on what he should do next. He also lied on his side, staring at Siwon’s back for a minute or so before reaching to turn off the lamp, then moving a bit closer, he draped an arm around the man’s stomach.

Siwon was startled when he felt Kyuhyun’s arm sneaking around his waist and his body suddenly tensed when he could feel the surrogate’s chest against his back and he didn’t know what he should do.

They stayed in that awkward position for several minutes before Siwon could hear a little sob coming from behind him. He then abruptly lied on his back, worried when he noted Kyuhyun’s tears.

“What’s wrong?”

Kyuhyun looked at him through his blurry eyes and with his pouting lips before he admitted “I can’t sleep”

Siwon sighed, knowing exactly why Kyuhyun couldn’t sleep since the position they were in wasn’t that comfortable. Siwon’s body is too big and so it should be the other way around.

So without thinking, Siwon sneaked his arm under Kyuhyun’s head and pulled him to lie on his chest. Kyuhyun was taken aback for a moment but as he felt the soothing warmth surrounding him, he immediately relaxed and even hugged Siwon as he snuggled closer.

“Better?” Siwon asked after a few seconds of silence, emitting a small laugh from the surrogate who buried his head a little bit deeper in Siwon’s chest before muttering “A lot better”

Siwon smiled, pressing a kiss on the top of Kyuhyun’s head before closing his eyes, tightening his hold on the boy in his arms before he drifted to sleep.

Kyuhyun didn’t find any trouble sleeping that night as he was soon taken to dreamland.

 

The next morning Kyuhyun opened his eyes to a different position. He was still secured in Siwon’s arms but now his back was pressed against the older’s chest. He looked down and found his fingers entwined with Siwon’s on his stomach and he couldn’t explain what that feeling did to his insides.

It feels nice...

He realized they weren’t covered and he smiled, noting how he didn’t need a blanket since Siwon’s body was enough to not make him feel cold.

He could feel the warmth breath on his nape along with the heartbeats against his back and it soon lulled him back to sleep.

 

Siwon woke up by Kyuhyun’s hair playing with his nose. He slowly opened his eyes and was met by a fluffy chocolate brown hair and soon a smile tugged his lips when his mind was clear enough to remind him of what happened last night. His arms tightened around Kyuhyun’s stomach as his nose buried in his nape, inhaling his sweet scent.

The move managed to make Kyuhyun stir from his sleep. When he tried to stretch his arms, he realized that he was still tucked in Siwon’s embrace and thus he smilingly turned around, lying on his back and staring at the figure beside him.

“Good morning”

Kyuhyun heavily flushed as he didn’t expect Siwon to be awake. He momentarily averted his gaze down before shyly meeting Siwon’s eyes again.

“Good morning”

“Slept well?” Siwon asked as he ran his fingers through Kyuhyun’s hair, causing a deeper shade of red to paint the younger’s cheeks and he could only hum as a response.

“Breakfast?”

As if Kyuhyun’s stomach had a brain of its own, it suddenly growled with the word breakfast, leaving Siwon chuckling at the younger's embarrassed expression as he mumbled something to his belly.

“Are you craving for something specific?”

Kyuhyun turned to lie on his side, the position making their faces even closer but he didn’t seem to notice because he was too immersed in thinking of what he wanted to eat.

Siwon however, couldn’t help but tense up at the way Kyuhyun’s face was only inches away from his. He narrowed his eyes, intently noting each detail of his face and once again he was rewarded by Kyuhyun’s cute pose of tapping his index finger over his chin.

“Remember that breakfast you made me when I first moved in?”

Siwon nodded before letting Kyuhyun continue “Colorful breakfast! I really loved it, Siwon-ssi”

Kyuhyun admitted and Siwon couldn’t help but smile. His lips stretched into a beam as he watched how Kyuhyun’s orbs turned bright at the mention of food.

“Y-You have dimples” Kyuhyun suddenly stated upon noticing the deep holes in Siwon’s cheeks, eyes growing in amazement as he reached his fingers to poke them.

“I do”

Siwon’s heartbeat started to speed up especially when Kyuhyun leaned even forward to clearly examine his dimples although the confusion about his sudden feelings made his smile fade.

“I have one as well” Kyuhyun exclaimed before widely smiling and pointing at a cute little dimple he had next to his chin.

Siwon smiled again at the sight, nearing his face and unexpectedly landing a peck on the said dimple. However, as he pulled away and saw the shocked look on Kyuhyun’s face, he immediately realized what he just did and abruptly climbed off the bed.

“I’ll make breakfast”

Kyuhyun was left lying frozen on the bed, tracing the warm place Siwon’s lips just touched while his other hand pressed on his chest since his heart was beating crazily fast.

 

SW: What the hell did I just do? Cho Kyuhyun, what is it about you that make me stray from who I am whenever I'm around you? ... I'm not supposed to find you cute!

 

After that morning, Kyuhyun’s and Siwon’s meetings were quite awkward. They talked normally like before, except that every time they were in the same room, Kyuhyun would blush because he would remember how Siwon had kissed his dimple which is only a centimeter away from his lips, and he would always remember the warm feeling that ignited his body when he slept in his arms. Siwon on the other hand, would be battling with his undefined feelings whenever he was around Kyuhyun and his stomach would always flip in a weird way when he remembered that night.

...

 

By the third week of the second trimester, Kyuhyun decided to invite his friends over to Siwon’s house. They hadn’t gathered in a while, only meeting when Kyuhyun would stop by the coffee shop or when they would chat on the phone, and thus he was very excited when all three had a free night and agreed to his invitation.

 

“Whoa! You’re so big now, Kyu!”  

That was the first thing Changmin exclaimed when Kyuhyun opened the door, earning him a smack on the back of the head from Minho who knew how sensitive preggy Kyuhyun was because he had tried to before and ended up with a crying mess.

“He means you look great, Kyu”

Changmin pouted and Kyuhyun couldn’t help but chuckle. He had missed his friends and missed these moments. So without any further ado, he reached for their hands and pulled them inside.

“Are you sure it’s okay for us to be here?” Jonghyun unsurely asked upon gawking at the spacious house and the neat classy living room Kyuhyun ushered them to.

“Yeah, Siwon-ssi won’t be here until later tonight”

Kyuhyun assured as he excitedly jumped on the couch crossed legs before patting the spot next to him for the boys to sit in.

“The house looks fancy, Kyu! You’re very spoiled I see” Changmin teased again, this time earning him a pull on his earlobe as Kyuhyun laughingly scolded him.

“Better watch it, Max!”

Minho and Jonghyun burst out laughing at him, making him pout for a moment before he joined them as well.

“I missed you, buddy!” He cheerfully admitted as he engulfed Kyuhyun in a side hug.

“Are we gonna play or what?” The surrogate stated as he reached for the consoles and handed one to whoever dared to play first against him.

“I see you have everything ready” Minho commented and Kyuhyun frantically nodded. He already settled everything down and all that was left to do was hit the play button.

“I haven’t played in a while, so I’m so happy” He cheerfully said, earning a ruffle on his hair by Changmin who snatched the second console and with a determined look he said “Then I’ll kick your !”

Kyuhyun’s eyes brightened at the challenge, smirking as he exclaimed “Game on!”

Before they could start however, Kyuhyun remembered something so he turned to eye his kyu-line as he warned them “Before we start, I don’t wanna hear the ‘W’ word or else you’ll face my grumpiness!”

The guys looked between them wondering what Kyuhyun meant, but as the surrogate did a little drinking sign with his hand, their mouths formed an O as they nodded in understanding.

 

Kyuhyun was a big fan of red wine and especially when there was a gaming session, there had to be a bottle of wine or two around them. It was something they were all used to. However, since Kyuhyun was pregnant, he was band from any kind of alcohol and it wasn’t really that easy to make him stop.

“Please Siwon-ssi… Just one glass!”

Kyuhyun whined, rubbing his hands and bringing them into a pleading pose since the man sitting in front of him on the kitchen counter didn’t seem to wither under his puppy look.

“No. It’s not good for the baby”

Kyuhyun whimpered, his lips at the sight of Gevrey Chambertin, his favorite wine, laid in front of his eyes. He missed drinking wine but ever since he got pregnant he couldn’t have it anymore. He was fine the last few months because Siwon got rid of everything alcoholic in the house. Nevertheless, when the man received that bottle to celebrate a new contract and was sadly delivered to his house, Kyuhyun’s eyes were about to fall out of their sockets.

“One sip?”

“Kyuhyun, you already survived for two months, what’s the matter now?” Siwon exclaimed, trying hard not to give in since Kyuhyun was looking rather adorable while childishly pouting his lips and pleadingly gazing at him.

“Exactly! Because I survived for two months, I deserve to taste it again!”

“You sound like an addict” Siwon commented, taking the bottle away from Kyuhyun’s sight and intending to leave the kitchen. However, as he passed the surrogate, Kyuhyun clutched to his arm and sweetly whispered “I love red wine, Siwon-ssi”

Siwon sighed, unable to take on the way Kyuhyun eyes him any longer. He closed his eyes for a moment before facing Kyuhyun and determinedly speaking “One tiny sip and you’ll never ask for it again for the rest of your pregnancy!”

Kyuhyun hesitated for a couple of seconds since it was too much to give up, but then the bottle caught his eyes and he eagerly nodded “Deal”

When Siwon poured the drink into a glass, he had to clutch on it while directing it to Kyuhyun’s mouth. He didn’t trust in giving him the whole glass since it contained a little over one sip.

As the sweet liquid lingered in Kyuhyun’s tongue, the boy’s hands automatically held the glass in order to have more but Siwon was too strong and pulled it away, leaving Kyuhyun glaring at him for stealing away his satisfaction.

“Very mean!” He commented, earning him a shrug from Siwon’s shoulder before he stomped out of the kitchen and headed to his room.

When there was a loud bang heard from upstairs, Siwon smiled, shaking his head in disbelief at how much Kyuhyun was being very childish.

“I have a feeling my kid will adore red one like he does”

 

The next morning, when Kyuhyun headed downstairs for breakfast, he found a large bowl of red and black grapes and a note beside it.

'It's much healthier' 

Kyuhyun scoffed and once again scrunched the piece of paper, tossed it on the floor, then stomped on it.

 

They played for a couple of hours and neither moved away from his spot except to change his position with the looser, which wasn’t Kyuhyun by the way.

Time flew by rapidly that they didn’t hear the front door being opened until a surprised Siwon was standing in the entrance eyeing Kyuhyun’s guests.

“Yah! Why are you always winning! Ugh, even when you’re pregnant?” Changmin complained and Kyuhyun only stuck his tongue out at him before focusing on the game again. However, a little tug on his elbow made him questionably glance at Jonghyun and follow where the man was motioning for him to look.

When he did, his eyes widened as he caught on Siwon standing there aloof, just watching them with his famous poker face.

“S-Siwon-ssi” He called before biting on his lower lip in nervousness. When Siwon once allowed him to invite his friends, he was clear about having them when he wasn’t around.

Without saying anything, Siwon turned around and headed upstairs to his room, leaving Kyuhyun guiltily staring after him.

“I’ll be right back, guys” Kyuhyun announced and the boys nodded, dumbfounded as they looked at each other, wondering if they got the surrogate in trouble.

Kyuhyun slowly went after Siwon, knocking on his door before stepping inside with head bent low and lips pursed into a guilty pout.

“I’m sorry”

Siwon knitted his eyebrows in confusion before he asked “For what?”

When he caught on the tender tone in the older’s voice, Kyuhyun slowly raised his head and gazed at Siwon.

“I know you said I can bring my friends when you’re not around. I just didn’t know you’ll be here this early”

Kyuhyun explained and Siwon sighed as he realized that the surrogate must’ve not read his text message yet.

“No, it’s okay. I don't mind”

Kyuhyun tilted his head, smiling a bit as he suddenly got lost in rethinking about his ever first impression of Siwon. Everything seemed to change for him and he even reconsidered his idea of hating rich people because in Siwon’s case, Kyuhyun realized that the man wasn’t as bad as he thought.

“Thank you” He softly whispered, emitting a small smile from Siwon before he turned around and went back to his friends.

 

KH: Why is my heart beating so fast...

 

“Is he mad?” Jonghyun worriedly asked when his gaze fell on Kyuhyun, but the latter seemed too lost in something that he kept on smiling and chewing on his bottom lip without paying attention to the question.

“Kyu? What happened?” Changmin stood up and walked to the boy, nudging his shoulder a bit until he dozed off from what he was thinking.

“Ah? Yeah, let's continue” He smiled before walking to his earlier seat and reaching for his console. Before he could resume playing though, he could feel six eyes blazed on him and he puzzlingly stared at his friends who were confusedly watching each of his moves.

“What?”

They could see the little blush blooming on their friend’s cheeks and so having a little clue about what was going on, they smilingly shrug it off and focused on the screen.

 

Another half an hour passed, the boys ended the gaming with Kyuhyun wining as usual, but if they weren’t hungry they wouldn’t have stopped and once again would try to beat their maknae for sure.

“I’m famished!” Changmin exclaimed as all they ate for the last few hours was snacks and juice. He was lying on the floor with Minho sprawled next to him, while Kyuhyun and Jonghyun each lied on a couch.

“Do you have anything to eat, Kyu?” Minho tiredly asked as he crawled to the couch next to Kyuhyun.

“None which you’ll like” He stated, watching how Minho questionably eyed him before he sat down and clarified “The man doesn’t eat like us and since I’m pregnant, he has been making me eat all of these healthy food! No wonder I lost weight!”

“I think it’s the opp-“ Changmin started but Kyuhyun immediately cut him off “Finish that and you won't live to see the sunlight”

The guys held back their laughter as they watched the deadly glare Kyuhyun was giving them. They didn’t want to upset their maknae especially now that he was pregnant and grumpier than he usually was.

“Does he at least have rice?” Jonghyun asked and Kyuhyun nodded “Thanks to me, now he does”

“Then Jong here can cook us his delicious bibimbap while we order take outs!” Minho excitedly suggested, making Kyuhyun’s eyes brighten at the mention of one of his favorite dishes that Jonghyun always made for him when he felt bummed down because it was very homey and it reminded him of his family.

“Yes please!” He was immediately on his feet as he dragged Jonghyun to the kitchen to show him where everything was after shouting for the other two to start ordering.

 

Kyuhyun excitedly sat on the stool as he watched Jonghyun prepare the food, and he was soon joined by Minho and Changmin who each took a seat beside him and smilingly watched his every reaction.

“How’s everything going on, hyung?”

Changmin muttered, successfully catching Kyuhyun’s attention who knew whenever he was called hyung by his friends, that they were about to say something serious.

“It’s the fourth month and it’s weird to know that a tiny human is actually growing inside me, but… it’s also very exciting”

Changmin ruffled his hair as he sensed the excitement in his friend’s tone. They all knew Kyuhyun deserved to be happy after everything that went on in his life, and although they talked between them about their fears of later on when Kyuhyun delivered the baby, they didn’t want to talk about it with Kyuhyun just yet.

“What about Siwon-ssi?” Minho asked next and Kyuhyun’s cheeks turned a shade of red as he averted his gaze to the counter, a smile tugging on his lips as he recalled just how nice Siwon had been to him from the start and how much he was starting to really appreciate him more than just a client.

“He’s taking real good care of me, guys” He proudly whispered, missing on how his friends were eyeing each other while watching the happy smile on his face.

“Good, because Changmin will kick his if he didn’t” Jonghyun commented, causing Changmin’s eyes to widen and his jaw to fall ajar.

“What? Won’t you?” Jonghyun questioned and Kyuhyun turned to look at Changmin who seemed like someone who just witnessed a murder scene.

“Won’t you, Max?” He cutely asked while tilting his head to the side, making Changmin gulp before pouting his lips for a few seconds then replying “Well I would, but then make sure to give me a nice funereal”

His answer made everyone burst out laughing at him which only made his pout deepen.

“Have you seen how strong he is? I bet he can break my bones with one arm!” He defended, earning him a nod of agreement from Kyuhyun who proudly stated “He’s indeed very strong. You would feel like breaking apart only by a simple hug!”

“How would you know?” Minho curiously asked, making Kyuhyun curse under his breath for blurting out such an embarrassing thing.

Luckily, the bell suddenly rang and Kyuhyun jumped from his seat to go open the door. When he saw from the intercom that it was their delivery, he walked to the coffee table to pick up his wallet, tapping on his phone in the process and making a text message pop out.

He paid for the food before he curiously picked his phone and read the text, eyes widening at its content.

‘I’ll be home early tonight if you’d like to go out for dinner…’

He guiltily chewed on his bottom lip as he walked back to the kitchen. He slumped his body on the stool and dumped the bags of food on Minho’s lap as his eyes were still focused on his phone. When he raised his head and faced his friends, he was met by questioning looks and so he put the device on the counter and everybody leant to read what was in it.

“Oh” Was all they said as they eyed how Kyuhyun seemed to feel guilty about it.

“I’m sure he already guessed that you didn’t read it” Changmin assured and Kyuhyun faintly smiled at him while his eyes kept re-reading the text. It seemed that it was sent three hours ago but since he was taking a nap he didn’t see it and then his friends showed up and he was too excited to care about checking his phone.

There was a little tug in his heart, his mind wondering if Siwon was disappointed in him. They hadn’t went out in a while since Siwon was busy and always came late, which left Kyuhyun thinking if he postponed his work for the night just to take him out.

Lost in his guilty thoughts, he only snapped out of it when Minho elbowed him and motioned for him to turn around.

“I’ll be in my office if you need anything”

His breath hitched when he heard Siwon’s voice, heart speeding as he wanted to go after him and apologize but his feet seemed frozen in place.

He watched how Siwon disappeared behind the door before he turned to his friends then shifted his gaze to the food laid in front of him.

“Hey guys, can I take some to Siwon-ssi?” He gently asked, earning nods from everyone before he widely smiled and thanked them.

He then took out a plate and filled it with some of the bibimbap that Jonghyun made, then he took some of the fried chicken they ordered before turning his attention back to his friends.

“You guys start eating. I’ll take this to him”

He quickly informed before leaving the kitchen and heading to Siwon’s office. When he stood by the door, he slowly knocked before opening it and peeking his head inside.

“Can I come in?”

Siwon, who was busy or at least trying to be busy, was startled to see Kyuhyun there. When he came home earlier, he was planning on taking the surrogate out for a nice dinner as a way to apologize for being occupied lately. However, when he was met by a bunch of guys surrounding him, he felt down and he couldn’t deny that his heart did a hurtful leap when he saw one of them sitting too close to him.

Siwon was glad that Kyuhyun was happy around his friends, he just felt guilty because he never made him smile in the way he saw him smiling earlier.

“Is everything okay?”

He softly asked and Kyuhyun stepped inside, slowly walking toward the desk with his eyes on the tray in hands.

“I just read your text… I’m sorry”

He apologized and Siwon sighed before assuring him “It’s okay. I figured you didn’t see it”

Kyuhyun raised his head, smilingly facing Siwon as he was happy the older wasn’t mad at him.

“Since you were planning on having dinner outside, then you must’ve not eaten yet”

“It’s okay Kyuhyun. I’ll get something later”

Siwon exclaimed but Kyuhyun was already standing beside him and putting the tray on the desk.

“No you should try this. Jonghyun makes the best bibimbap ever! You’re gonna like it”

Kyuhyun sounded very excited but Siwon wasn’t in the mood to eat right then.

“Really, I just don’t feel hun-“

However, before he could finish his sentence, he was silenced by the spoonful pushed into his mouth.

Kyuhyun excitedly anticipated Siwon’s reaction, watching him munch on the food and feeling a bit guilty for putting too much into his mouth.

“How is it?”

Siwon was still not able to talk as he slightly punched his chest to let way to the food. His eyes were looking ahead and so Kyuhyun who was watching from the side could see a little tear gathering in the corner of his eye and he suddenly got worried.

“Is it too spicy?” He concernedly asked but Siwon shook his head and so Kyuhyun offered “I’ll get you a glass of water”

But as Kyuhyun was about to walk away, Siwon gripped on his wrist and shook his head again before swallowing the last bit of food and turning to look at him.

“It’s not”

Kyuhyun frowned, a new expression on Siwon’s face that he had never seen before.

“Are you okay, Siwon-ssi?”

He asked while sitting on the floor on his knees, his hands resting on Siwon’s knee as he surprisingly watched a few tears spilling out of Siwon’s eyes.

"It's been a while since I had this"

"Really?"

Siwon faintly smiled before confessing “My mother used to make it for me”. He then faced Kyuhyun, tenderly looking at him between his teary eyes.

“Used to?”

“She passed away”

Kyuhyun slightly gasped, clasping a hand over his mouth while the other one soothingly rubbed along the older’s thigh.

“I’m so sorry to hear that... What about your father?”

Siwon sighed, lips pursed into a thin line as he shifted his gaze away.

“She was a single mother. I don’t know who my father is”

“Oh, Siwon-ssi~” Kyuhyun felt really bad about what he just heard, his heart aching to see Siwon crying like that which was something he never imagined he would see.

“It’s okay” Siwon tried to sound strong, sniffing a couple of times while wiping his tears before facing Kyuhyun again, enchanted by the compassionate look he was giving him.

“No it’s not. I know what it must be like to lose your parents. I’m so sorry”

Siwon nodded, cupping Kyuhyun’s hand as he took a deep breath to calm himself. He then shifted his gaze to the table, smiling at the plate of bibimpap before he shyly asked “Can I eat more?”

“Yes of course!” Kyuhyun abruptly answered, handing the spoon to Siwon, and just sat there watching him from the side, his hand clenching tight on Siwon's.

It was a rare view because Siwon always acted strong and tough. Kyuhyun didn’t know about his past and he really wanted to.

I didn’t know you went through something like this. You must be hurting inside but you don’t show it. I wonder how much more I don’t know about you.

He sadly eyed the couple of new tears falling down Siwon's cheeks which made his heart break. He then stretched his arm and wiped them with the back of his hands, causing Siwon to look at him and whisper “I miss her…”

“I know” Kyuhyun straightened his body and wrapped his arms around Siwon’s neck as he pulled him into a hug. He soothingly ran his hands along his back and smiled when he felt the older hugging him as well.

“Thank you” Siwon whispered and Kyuhyun slightly pulled away, smiling at him as he was momentarily lost in his glistening orbs.

He was then caught off guard when Siwon leaned over a bit, shortly planting a peck on his lips before pulling him back to his embrace.
