hyesung was waiting infront of the elevator when eric arrived.. nothign was said between them and the atmosphere was awkward as ever... finally the doors open and both went it...

inside the elevator was an eerie silence between the two..until eric started to talk...

"hyesung ah..." but he was cut off by hyesung

"eric..please...we already talked about it.." as he can somehow feel eric still wanted them back together

"ani.. if you want us to be friends for now..i'll accept that but please don't push me away..i do want you back..but i'm gonna work for it...i'm going to make you fall inlove with me again..." eric smiled as he exited the elavator first...

"pabo..i'm still inlove with you..." hyesung thought as he smiled bitterly..

shinhwa went on their scheduled broadcasts as usual.. the other four members somehow felt the tension was not there anymore between their leader and lead vocal which somehow made the members happy...

"are you guys ok now?" junjin asked during the break

"uhmm.." hyesung nodded

"you''re back together?" andy asked this time

"ani...we just decided to be friends..with no worried.. although.." hyesung told them about the elevator incident

"i hope hyung succeds" jinnie smiled.. he knew hyesung still loves eric

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the members were spending some time at the office together talking about up coming activities when a knock on the door came

"i'm sorry mr. mun, but there's a delivery for Mr. Shin..." the staff said..then a guy with balloons, cake and flowers came in and put the cake on the table and handed the flowers and balloons to hyesung who was just blinking  at the delivery guy...

the other members were surprised but eric was just smirking..

when the delivery man left everyone was curious

"who is it from?" minwoo asked hurriedly

"molla.. but a card is here..."

no flower will ever be as beautiful

as you...

-E

"e?" dongwan asked and somehow everyone turned their eyes to their leader who was sipping his coffee so innocently

"hahah whoever E is, he is so cheesyyyyyy" minwoo teased

"and hyung is not a girl.. why compare to flowers..E must be crazy hahaha" andy teased followed by laughter from the members and eric turned really red this time

hyesung smiled..adn that was enough for eric...

everyday, E or as everyone already guessed eric is sending all sorts of gifts to hyesung at the company or at home with flowers and cheesy cards...

--------------------------------------------------------------

"oh...look hyung's door has flowers, chocolates and a big bear infront" andy pointed as they made their way to hyesung's  place

"i wonder ..E already sent one this morning...still sent one at night?" minwoo said looking at eric but the leader only shook his head

"there's a card hyung" junjin said as he picked up the card and gave it to hyesung

Hey beautiful...

i'm giving you this bear

so you can have some company at home...

and you can always remember me...

-Kangta

"wow..." was the only thing dongwan could muster

"i guess Mr. E.. has some competition over here.. and he even wrote his real name" minwoo said emphasizing every word obviously directing to eric

"why the heck everyone keeps calling me beautful? i'm a man for heaven's sake" was the only thing hyesung could say

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

eric went to SM entertainment to meet his rival...

"oh eric ah...wasseo?" kangta said as he entered his office finding eric there waiting

"yea..i wanted to talk to you..."

"about what?"

"hyesungie"

"oh...ok"

"why are you sendign him flowers and stuff.. are you by any chance interested in him?"

"hmm.. since you guys are not together anymore..yes i am..i have already waited for a long long time eric ah.. i already given up home when you guys announced to the public about your relationship but since you guys have broken up, i figured this was my chance" kangta explained his eyes locked with eric's

"i will make him mine gain kangta ssi..i hope you won't get disappointed" eric said with all seriousness

"i won't because i will fight for hyesung's love..no more holding back eric..not this time..."

Just like that the rivalry between Shinhwa's leader and HOT's lead vocal started.. both not willing to back down...both will fight until hyesung chooses one of them...
