On their way to the band rehearsal...
"Hyung... I'm not sleeping in your house tonight." Kyuhyun said one afternoon.

Sungmin nodded but secretly wonder why Kyuhyun has to stay out tonight. Then again, hearing his voice calling him
'hyung' makes him smile. Day by day Kyuhyun starts treating him better and better and he likes it a lot.

On that night, Sungmin was sleepless and is still thinking why Kyuhyun have to stay someplace else at night. Then again,
he wonders more why he has to be THIS concern to the magnae. For the whole night, his eyes are opened and thinking of
the same person.

---------------
The next day, Kyuhyun is sitting in front of Seohyun's grave. "Happy birthday..." he said.

He took out something in his left pocket, the ring that he wanted Seohyun to have. He stared at it for a long time
and sighed... "is it really possible?"

"Joohyun-ah... can I really love again? Just like what that person said... my heart is still beating?"

He sighed deeply again as he looked up the blue sky. "Joohyun-ah... is it wrong to see you in that person? because
everything he does...always seems..." he smiled and cut his words.

After spending his whole day in the cemetery Kyuhyun still doesn't feel like going back to Sungmin's house. He get
his phone and dialled.

"Hello?" Sungmin said as he answer the phone.

"Hyung... can you go out for a while?" Kyuhyun said on the other line.

"Oh..." Sungmin said shortly. He grabbed his jacket and ran outside.

Sungmin didn't realise when it started, but everytime he hears Kyuhyun calling him whether with honorifics or just by
his name actually thrills him. He ran outside as quick as possible and hailed a cab and told the driver where he is
heading to. He was looking around inside the plastic tent, he saw Kyuhyun drinking soju. He sat beside the tall guy
who welcomed him with a smile.

"Why suddenly drinking?" Sungmin asked him.

"Today...is Joohyun's birthday." he said shortly.

Sungmin nodded and looked at the old woman in the counter...

"Ahjumma, one more bottle of soju, please" Kyuhyun looked at him as he smiled.

"Such an important day... I'll accompany you for a while." Sungmin said sweetly. Kyuhyun looked at him and pour a
drink for him. In a short while, Kyuhyun is already tipsy...

"but then, Sungmin hyung..." he said in a calm way, like he is not drunk at all.

"Why are you sooooo pretty?"

"Yah...Cho Kyuhyun." Sungmin said... "I dont care if you're drunk... I'll kick you if you say something bad about my face."

Kyuhyun chuckled and drink again. "Im just saying...you are sooooo pretty. Seeing you..."

Sungmin smiled and continue to listen as he looked at Kyuhyun "and hearing your voice... always reminds me of that day..."

"what day?"

"That day when you came to me and hugged me."

Sungmin's smile slowly disappear, he looked at the shot glass and drink the soju slowly.

"You always remind me of Joohyun." Kyuhyun said smiling and drinking another shot of soju. Sungmin looked
at him and said in his mind.

'if you just can... I dont want you to see me as anybody else.' He looked away and noticed 3 guys actually staring and
laughing at them, sensing something troublesome, he decided to stand up.

"Yah, Kyuhyun-ah... let's go." Sungmin said. Kyuhyun stood up but almost fell down when he finally felt the kick of
alcohol. Sungmin helped him to stand up and heard the guys in the other table chuckled.

"Sorry hyung, I think Im drunk..." Kyuhyun said as he shook his head. He stood up straight as Sungmin watches him.

Kyuhyun walked pass the group who were laughing at them and is about to ignore them but...

"its not really that bad to step into the dark hole..." one of the guys said. "having a pretty and girly boyfriend
is nothing to be ashamed of." the other guy said and laugh out loud.

Kyuhyun looked pissed while Sungmin, who felt insulted but is trying to calm down. Kyuhyun chuckled a bit.
Without any ado he kicked the table and punched one guy to Sungmin's surprise...
"Kyuhyun-ah!"

Kyuhyun punched the other guy but was hit on the face by the same guy he punched. Sungmin sighed and come closer to
help. He kicked one of the guys who was attacking Kyuhyun. He held the guy in his collar and asked...
"Yah... were you the one who said Im pretty and girly?" he knocked the guy out in the face.

He saw the other guy about to throw a punch on Kyuhyun, he ran towards them, stand in front of Kyuhyun and do
high kick on the guys' face. Sungmin blew his fringe up and felt handsomely when he smirked and looked at the guy on
the floor. But then, Kyuhyun held his hand and started running away when he heard the other guy calling for back up.

"Let's go..." he said.

Hand in hand they ran together and hide somewhere behind the garbage bins near the tent. They looked at each other
and laugh...

"Sungmin hyung... for a while I saw a different side of you... It was quite refreshing."

They smiled at each other and stood up thinking the guys wont see then anymore. But clumsy Sungmin accidentally
pushed the garbage bin and made a loud sound. One of the guys saw them and they actually started running again.

Hand in hand they continue running but Sungmin slipped down and twisted his ankle. "Are you alright?" Kyuhyun asked as he catches his breath.
"I think I twisted my ankle..."

Kyuhyun squat down in front of Sungmin and gestured him to hold his shoulder.

The next thing they know Kyuhyun is walking, carrying Sungmin on his back.

"Kyuhyun-ah..." Sungmin said. "let's rest for a while." They sat down on a stair in front of a convenient store and
drank coffee while resting.

"but... Sungmin hyung was really handsome back there." Kyuhyun said smiling. Sungmin looked down, shy as the magnae
praises him.

Kyuhyun looked at him still with a smile and did not avoid Sungmin's eyes when his hyung looked at him.

"Oh... Kyuhyun-ah..." Sungmin said as he looked at Kyuhyun's lower lip closer. "you're lip is bleeding."

Kyuhyun watched Sungmin getting closer as the older guy wiped the blood on his lower lip. The magnae unintentionally
hold his breath as he watches his hyung. 'Since when did this guy have this beautiful set of eyes?' he asked himself as
if it is the first time he sees Sungmin this close. 'and why does his lips looks so soft?'

Kyuhyun carried Sungmin on his back until they got home. When they reached their room, Kyuhyun put Sungmin down on
the bed, went out and got the icepack on the freezer.
He kneel down in front of Sungmin, took of the socks and places his hyung's left foot on his leg. He place the
icepack gently on the sore area which made Sungmin arched his back in pain.

"ah..." he said shortly, closing one eye, showing the pain in his face.

But then seeing Kyuhyun being this gentle to him, Sungmin slowly feel like the pain disappeared. He doesnt know
whether the magnae heard him or not but he whispered to himself...

'I think I already love you.'
Suddenly Kyuhyun pressed the icepack too hard it made him go back to reality and shouted in pain.

Kyuhyun is pressing the icepack on Sungmin's foot when he thought he heard his hyung said
'I think I already love you.' Unintentionally he pressed the ice pack a bit hard which made Sungmin shouted in pain.

----------------
That night, Kyuhyun cannot sleep and keep on tossing and turning. What if I heard him right? Is Sungmin really in
love with me? Is it even possible? But...we're...how...

He stopped his thinking when he saw the sleeping Sungmin's hand hang down from the bed. He took his hyung's hand
and remember the times when he sleeps on Sungmin's shoulder inside the bus, his hyung would always pat him twice on
the cheek. He stupidly tried patting his cheek using Sungmin's hand when...

"Yah..." Sungmin said in his husky sleepy voice. "What are you doing?"

The light is off but Kyuhyun knows that he blushed and felt embarassed with what he is doing.

"I--" he stuttered. "I cannot sleep."

Sungmin sighed deeply and placed his hand, the one that Kyuhyun is holding, on the magnae's cheek. He carressed his
cheek and patted him gently. Kyuhyun smiled and slowly felt his eyes heavy and was able to sleep soon.

Sungmin woke up finding Kyuhyun's hand on top of his and is actually resting on the magnae's cheek.
