RECAP: Slowly, Key smiled as his vision became blurry. He didn’t realize that he was crying until Yoona got some tissue and wiped his face, smiling.

“Please don’t cry, Key-sshi. We’re sorry for keeping these all a secret from you. But like what Jonghyun-sshi said, you didn’t actually think that we would forget your birthday, right?”

“Yeah. You’re special, Key-sshi, and we all love you, no matter what.” Leeteuk added as he hugged the younger male tenderly.

Key sniffled, smiled, and then stood up as the others went over to him and greeted him. He thanked all of them and finally offered them the meal on the table, which, he realized was actually for him all along. Everyone readily agreed and ate. Sungmin, after arguing on who gets to feed him with Heechul, finally offered Key the soup, which he also realized, was actually seaweed soup. He heartily agreed and grinned as Sungmin fed him, with Heechul scowling at the side. The soup tasted delicious. He guessed it was probably Ryowook or Sungmin himself who made it.

After he finished eating, Key thanked Sungmin and went over to Heechul, who was still scowling. As soon as Heechul saw him, his expression changed from sour to grinning. He stood up and quickly hugged Key. Key laughed and hugged the older male back.

“Yah! Kibum-ah! Happy Birthday! It was too bad that I wasn’t able to feed you. It’s all Sungmin’s fault. Anyways, never mind about that. Now, I don’t usually say this, but since it’s your day, I’ll make an exception. What do you want as a present from me?”

Key looked at Heechul with raised eyebrows.

“It’s okay, Heechul hyung. You don’t ne-“

“No, no, I insist! Ah! I know! Since you can’t think of anything, I’ll think for you! I’ll just give you a kiss instead! I’m sure you’ve heard or seen some of my... fan services wherein I kiss a random member. Since it’s your birthday, you’re lucky. I’m very generous tonight. Probably 2-5 minutes at most.”

He grinned mischievously as he smirked at Key, who gulped and backed away slowly. Heechul followed until Key was completely backed against the corner. Key held out his hands in an attempt to block Heechul from coming any closer. But Heechul grabbed them and leaned forward so that his face was inches from Key’s. Key closed his eyes, half from nervousness and half from anticipation.

Anticipation?! No, no, no. I don’t like this. But I can’t exactly pull away. One, I’m trapped. Duh. Way to state the obvious. Two, Heechul hyung might look thin, but he’s actually very strong. I can’t get my arms free! What to do?!

Hahaha. I'm sorry if you're not into boy to boy pairings. But since Heechul is my bias in SJ (as well as Sungmin), I couldn't resist not adding this scene. XD Forgive me!
