Title: Of Pee Pee Poking and Saying Sorry a.k.a The Importance of Locking Doors

Series: Dong Bang Family

Pairing: JaeHo, SuChun

Rating: Gen

Length: Drabble

Warning: Unbeta <-- that alone should make you guys running for the hill TT-TT.. CRACK!

Summary: Minnie is a curious boy indeed ^^

A/N:

- Second part of the Dong Bang Family series. Not a continuation.. just another episode in their life.

- There will be no definite AU or Canon in this series.. Heck, I won’t even confirm Minnie’s age in the series. He could be six, sixteen, 20 or whatever age I like. Each drabble won’t be a continuation from before.. just a slice in our Dong Bang family life. Basically in this universe, Jaejoong and Yunho would be in their twenties while the ‘kids’ would vary from each episode. E.g: in this one, I imagined Junsu and Yoochun would be around the same age as they are now while Minnie would be so much younger. While maybe in the next one, Junsu, Yoochun and Minnie could be roughly the same age.. Only Jaejoong and Yunho would remain the same as their Appa/Umma. So it’s not exactly a series… more like snapshots of ‘what could have been's.

- First part could be found HERE

It was just another normal dinner time at the Dong Bang Family household.

There was Jae-umma, all beautiful and gorgeous with frilly sunny yellow apron and a beaming smile on his face – the very epitome of a proud ‘umma’ of three pretty ‘kids’. Happy that all five of them would be together having a nutritious, balanced and delicious meal that he himself had prepared. Safe in knowing that the beautiful family he’s so protective of is healthy and spoiled.

There was Yunho-appa, as handsome and cute as ever. The dorkiest, ‘adorable’st appa ever existed. All the ‘kids’ knew for fact that even though Yunho’s the appa, he’s also the most oblivious, naïve person on earth. Which makes all of them extra protective of him – nobody bully Appa except for them! (A/N; -.-‘’’). But that doesn’t mean Yunho is a pushover. Woe to those who even dares to think of harming the Dong Bang family. For then they would have a taste of the infamous Gwangju’s temper. Of course, with the family he’s a different person altogether – all goofy grins and putty in their hands.

There was also Yoochun-noona, the sweetest of them all and the most sensitive too. Known for his calm and laid-back demeanour, Yoochun is the person to go to if you’re ever in stress and just need to vent out to someone. His dimples are currently flashing in and out as he smiles shyly at the dolphin-boy a.k.a Junsu.

Junsu-hyung is sitting next to Yoochun-noona as he always does – any and everywhere. Happy-go-lucky, he’s the mood-maker of the family. A bit stingy with his money but everyone knows his only weakness is Yoochun. He can’t and won’t say no to anything that the other desires. So, if anyone wants something from Junsu (especially if it involves money), then all they have to do is go to Yoochun. A tilt of the head and a little pout from the latter were all it took for Junsu to crumbles like a deck of crumpled cards – a fact that’s often exploited by little Changminnie.

Which of course brought us to the youngest, Minnie. The baby of the family – spoiled and loved by all others, he is especially close to their ‘parents’. He is Jae-umma’s baby boy and Yunho-appa’s accomplice and partner-in-crime. He’s also close to his beloved Yoochun-noona and one of his favourite pastime is to annoy and tease his Junsu-hyung.. Mainly because he knew Yoochun-noona would protect him if Junsu-hyung tries to retaliate. Not to mentioned that umma and appa would definitely be on his side!

Junsu however thought that the youngest is a bit too attached to Yoochun for his liking.. No, he’s not jealous.. not at all! (A/N: Yeah, right.. -.-‘’).
For example, currently the maknae is staring at Yoochun with such intensity that he didn’t even noticed the husge bowl of rice – triple servings compare to everyone elses – piled with all the delicious side dishes that Jae-umma put in front of him.

“Minnie-yah~ what’s wrong? Eat your dinner.. Are you feeling alright, sweetie?”

Minnie ducked against Jaejoong’s searching hand to feel his forehead for fever and peered around to look at his Yoochun-noona again. The latter started to feel weird from the intense scrutiny.
“Minnie, do you want something? You’ve been staring at me since this afternoon..”

Minnie then tilted his head and asked curiously,
“Chunnie-noona~.. does it hurt much?”

Yoochun frowned, not understanding what the youngest is referring to.
“Does what hurts, Minnie-yah?”

Minnie blinked innocently,
“When Junsu-hyung poked you with his pee pee..”

The reactions were instantaneous..

Yoochun went bright red and spluttered soundlessly.

Yunho who had the misfortune of just took a huge gulp of water, choked and sprayed his drink everywhere.

Jaejoong turned to Junsu with murder in his eyes and hands all stretched out – fully intend to strangle the life out of the younger man for daring to defile his baby’s eyes.

Junsu just went ‘eep’ed and jumped behind Yoochun for protection from the enraged ‘umma’.

Through it all, Minnie just looked at his family’s bizarre behaviour with an adoringly confused look on his face.
“Umma~.. Why did Junsu-hyung poked noona with his pee pee? Did noona do something bad?”

Jaejoong stopped trying to kick Junsu to another dimension and went to preserve what little innocence left in the youngest. He kneeled beside Minnie’s chair and tucked the maknae’s hair behind one ear affectionately.

“Minnie-yah~, Yoochun-noona was naughty and that’s why Junsu0hyung… er.. poked noona..”
Jaejoong facepalmed himself mentally, ’What the hell kind of explanation is that?! Mian Minnie~, you have a perverted person as a hyung.. TT-TT’.

Minnie then tilted his head and looked at his umma thoughtfully.
“Is that why Umma was spanking Appa last night too? Appa was also naughty?”

Junsu/Yoochun: O.O

Jaejoong: @.@ feeling faint

Yunho: O///O

Oblivious to the shocked silence that fell after his innocent queries, Minnie nodded in satisfaction at his own deduction on why his Appa and Noona was being poked and spanked. He was so worried the night before when he saw them last night – Minnie can’t sleep so he went to his noona’s room to cuddle and what he saw make him ran to his ‘parents’ room to report that Junsu-hyung is hurting his noona.. Although, then he saw Umma and Appa were busy too and so he went back to his room – worried and sad and scared for his noona and Appa for the whole night (A/N: aww… poor Minnie-chan *pets his head comfortingly*).
Now that he knew why Umma and Junsu-hyung did those things, Minnie feels so much better!.
Then he frowned cutely as he remembered something and turned to his appa – who braced himself for more innocently curious question from his youngest ‘kid’.

“Appa, next time when you’re naughty and umma is spanking you, you should say ‘sorry’ not ‘harder harder!’, ok? Minnie’s teacher said that if you said ‘sorry’ and really really mean it, then no one can be angry at you anymore. Ok Appa? Though Minnie saw that Umma kissed your boo boo already, you still have to say sorry to Umma~”
The youngest scolded his by now red-as-fire-engine Appa.

Junsu/Yoochun: is looking at the two oldest boys in awe and admiration

Yunho: “Uh..I.. ah..” sneaked a peek at Jaejoong and his eyes widened in alarm.. “Uh.. Jae.. sweetheart.. love of my life.. uh.. you better start breathing soon., You’re turning purple..”

Jaejoong: “……” Thud! *__*

Junsu/Yoochun/Yunho: -.-‘’’..

Minnie: finally noticed all the food that Jae-umma put in front of him “Whee, food!!” \(*v*)/~…

finis

A/N:

- .... Gomen nasai.. I have no excuse for such weirdness *bows low*
- Ahaha.. this is part of Dong Bang Family series. Like I said above, not much a series.. more like collection of non-connected drabbles of them as a family. I think it'll be pretty cute if JaeHo could really adopt the other three.. It'll be like the awesomest family ever! and cutest too :).
- So many times before I wrote Aegyo!Yunho.. Hopefully I didn't fail too badly at making Aegyo!Minnie too.. Why Min?? Well, I think it's fun playing around with him once in a while. I mean, I love love LOVE seme, sexy Min (gah, did anyone else thinks that he and Yunho was totally flirting with each other on BigEaStation #142??!! XXDD) but I just had so much fun writing 'Minnie Is a Good Boy' last time that I decided to do a continuation of some sort in the Dong Bang Family universe.
- So~.. what do you think?? anyone like some more of this series??

“Minnie-ah~.. when Umma’s away after this, Minnie takes care of Appa for Umma, ok? Make sure Appa eats on time and to never skip meal.. We didn’t want Appa to faint again now, do we?.. Umma’s sorry he can’t be here for both of you.. Umma, Junsu-hyung and Yoochun-noona have to go to Japan. But know that Umma will always be thinking of you and Appa and will love you both the most..”

“Uhn.. Minnie promise Minnie will try his best for umma! So Umma don’t be sad, ok? Leave everything to Minnie!”

Jaejoong laughed at the adorable, earnest expression on his youngest ‘kid’ and ruffled the maknae’s hair fondly before turning back to finish his packing.

************* ****************** ********************* **************

Changmin: “Appa, say ‘aaah~*”

Yunho: groan.. “Minnie… Appa can’t eat anymore..”

Changmin: pout.. “B..but Minnie cooked all these especially for Appa..”

Yunho: “I know.. but don’t you think it’s a bit too much for just the two of us?”
stares at the table laden with hobakjeon, buchujeon, mandu, japchae, sujebi, gamjatang, maeuntang, galbi jjim, bulgogi and bibimbab.. there are also several stacks of hwajeon.

Changmin: “Appa didn’t like it?” sniffs “Minnie knows Minnie’s not a good cook like Jae-umma is.. but Minnie tried.. really really tried.. And now, Appa hates Minnie~*!!” wails

Yunho: panic panic “Eh?! No baby… Don’t cry! Look here.. Appa’s eating it all.. Mmm~ really tasty. Minnie’s as good cook as Jae-umma now. Appa’s just joking before..”

Changmin: “Really?” peeked through fingers “Appa really like Minnie’s cooking?”

Summary: *pointed to the title*.. that explains all >.<..

A/N:

- After writing ’The Unforgiven’ (which I sincerely wish you guys would read and c/c), I NEED to write this crack.. ok? I need some Aegie!Yunho so so bad that even though I’m supposed to study for my exam, I can’t help but write this weird fic :p.. Hope all of you would like it : )

- Dedicated to hana_kiree because she said she can’t bear to read angst fic at the moment.. So, there you go bb!! A crack fic for you :p.. *runs away to hide*

One fine morning, Yunho woke up and decided he wants to be an onigiri. So he rolled himself with the thick comforter until only his fluffy bedhead and his feet are poking out at each ends.

’Emm… This is comfy..’ he sighed happily and snuggled in deeper into the makeshift roll.

And so, that was how Junsu found him 10 minutes later.

The dolphin boy had been sent by Jaejoong to wake the leader up for breakfast as they have to leave for studio practice in about two hours time. Junsu looked blankly at the sight of his leader all bundled up in the middle of the double bed, giggling and mumbling to himself. Junsu scratched his head in confusion because usually it’ll be Yunho the one who will wake up first among them and he’s the one who’ll make sure everyone would be up and ready for their morning practice.

“Yunho-hyung… Jae-hyung said that you have to get up now if you want to do your dance routine in the shower and still have time for breakfast..”

“No!” Came the petulant reply, “I’m the Yunhogiri and I don’t want to get up today. So there!”

Junsu stared at his ‘somehow-had-been-reverted-to-a-baby’ friend. Shrugging, he decided he had technically done what Jaejoong asked him to do. It wasn’t Junsu’s fault that Yunho had finally lost his mind and thinks he’s a riceball.
Now… Junsu is more interested in the next person he has to go and wake up – Yoochun.

He rubbed his hands gleefully as he thought of the delectable cutie just waiting to be devoured by one Kim Junsu. The older man had been resisting Junsu’s advance for weeks now!
But now no more!
He’ll be defenceless against Junsu. Everyone knows how pliant and agreeable Yoochun is during morning time… or whatever time when he just woke up. He’ll just nodded and say yes to whatever people ask of him with a confused and dazed smile on his face. His brain never wakes up before his body, That’s for sure..

’Today, you ass is mine.. Park Yoochun!’ Junsu thought while laughing maniacally – causing Yunho to blink at the retreating back of his friend curiously.

’Wonder what makes Junsu so happy..’
Little did Yunho knows that the seemingly innocent boy is planning the ultimate corruption upon the most sensitive of them all..

Next, came in the youngest.

“Yah! Yunho-hyung! Jae hyung said that none of us could start eating until you and Yoochun-hyung are up. So, wake up already!”

The only reaction he got was: Yunho poked his head out from the thick bundle and stick out his tongue cheekily at the maknae.
Dropping his jaw in annoyance, Changmin marched straight up to the bed fully intend to drag Yunho out by hook or by crook. He will wash the older man by himself in the shower if he has to!

’Nobody stands between me and food!’ he thought vehemently.

“Let me go~! I’m the Yunhogiri! I don’t want to get up~!!” Yunho started struggling and squirming when Changmin tugged hard on one of his wrist.. “No~!!”

“What the hell are you saying? Yunhogiri?! Yah! Are you crazy now? You’re human being, Jung Yunho! Now, get up already! How dare you make Changmin-sama waits for his food?!”
Changmin keeps pulling at Yunho’s wrist until Yunho feels like his arm going to pop out of its socket. He began to whimpers.

“What on earth is going on in here?!”

Both of the tallest members looked up guiltily from their tug-o-war at the sound of silky stern voice. The band’s umma is leaning against the doorframe with one eyebrow raised at the childish display in front of him. Jaejoong frowned when he noticed that Changmin’s been holding Yunho’s wrist so tightly that it began to turn mottled red. He glared at the youngest.

“Changmin, let him go and get out. I’ll deal with Yunho”

“But…”

Jaejoong just gave Changmin a look that had the maknae deflated. Courage (or was it foolishness?? -.-‘’’) to go against the fiercest member in DBSK shrank to the size of a green pea. Dejectedly, he walked out of the room.

’Guess breakfast would be delayed this morning… again.. Ah~ nobody loves Changmin-sama TT-TT’ he sighed sadly while going to his room for some ..er.. special morning entertainment.

**************

After shutting the door behind Changmin firmly, Jaejoong turned and looked at the other man who by now had retreated back into the comfy zone of his comforter’s roll. Jaejoong could hear slight whimpering and sniffles coming from the bundle on the bed. He sighed and smiled fondly, Yunho usually becomes extra childish and whiny when he wants a abit of a cuddle and attention – whether he realizes it or not. Jaejoong looked around the room and lightened up as his eyes landed on something on the floor.

*************

Yunho pouted and whimpered slightly, rubbing his tender wrist.

’Minnie is so mean.. I don’t like him anymore.. Where’s Joongie? I want him to kiss this better..’ Yunho snuggled deeper into the roll, feeling quite sorry for himself.

“Yunnie… Oh Yunnie… Look what I got here..”

Ears perking up at the sound of his beloved’s voice, Yunho opened his eyes and peeked out from his hiding place.

Bambi!

Jaejoong is sitting on the other side of the bed and holding Yunho’s Bambi. Yunho frowned; he must have kicked the poor plushie to the floor sometime during the night.

“Do you want her, Yunnie? Do you want to hold Bambi?” Jaejoong holds the plushie and make it dance a little bit in front of Yunho’s face – smirking inwardly when he saw Yunho nodded eagerly and made grabby hands at his beloved daughter.

“Mine~..” Yunho whined as he squirmed to get closer to Bambi that’s just out of his reach..
Jaejoong tugged the plushie closer to him and further from Yunho. Oblivious of the older man’s plan, Yunho squirmed and crawled a bit more out of his roll.
Once about a quarter of Yunho’s body out of the comforter, Jaejoong let go of the plushie and let Yunho to finally have it while he darted forward, put his arms around the younger man’s chest and dragged him out gently but firmly from his bedding confinement.

“Gotcha!”

Yunho yelped in indignation when he realized he was being tricked. He struggles a bit get off Jaejoong’s lap and go back to being Yunhogiri. But the older man just hugged him tighter while one of his hands is stroking Yunho’s back over and over as if to calm him down. Unable to resist the warmth and comfort surrounding him, Yunho stopped struggling and melted into Jaejoong’s embrace (A/N: yah! Doesn’t this sentence sounded like cheesy rip-off from harlequin romance? -.-‘’’). Resting his head on Jaejoong’s shoulder, he lets out himself to just enjoy the rare quiet cuddle-moments between them both.

After about 10 minutes just sitting there together and soaking each other’s warmth and love, Jaejoong turned his head to look at his sweetheart. Kissing the younger man’s temple, he asked softly,

“Feeling much better now, baby?”

Yunho nodded and yawned. Lifting his head up slightly, he kissed Jaejoong’s cheek affectionately.
“Thank you..”

“My pleasure..” Jaejoong ilted his face to kiss that pouty lips at better angle, “You know.. when you need my attention or want to cuddle, all you have to do is ask… instead of turning yourself into a giant… Yunhogiri?.. and tortured our poor kids..”
He then raised one of Yunho’s hands to place a sloppy wet kiss on the sensitive skin at the reddened wrist. Yunho giggled a bit at the ticklish sensation, then moaned as the sinful mouth travelled from his wrist, up to the inside of his elbow, up the shoulder and the next thing he knew, the older man had laid him out fully on the bed and now currently is kissing – more like like licking, sucking on his tongue, devouring him – his lips while unbuttoning Yunho’s nightshirt with one hand.

Pushing aside the shirt that concealed the delectable body from his sight, Jaejoong sat up and look down at his panting lover. The flushed face, those swollen lips, the wanton look on the usually adorably confused face: makes Jaejoong thanks every deities in universe that deemed him worthy enough to claim this perfect being as his own. He bent down and placed a wet kiss at the base of Yunho’s throat,

“Do you..”

Another one at Yunho’s right nipple

“Have any idea…”

…and a quick suck on the left one

“how much..”

Then blew a raspberry on the belly button – causing the younger man to giggle.

“how desperately.. desperately much..”

A small bite on the soft abdomen’s skin and Jaejoong then went up again, placed his whole body on top of the writhing man – effectively pining him to be still – and with one hand gently stroking Yunho’s cheek and staring into his eyes, whispered:

“I’m in love with you..?”

Overwhelmed, Yunho responded the only way he knew how.
Throwing his arms around Jaejoong’s neck, he pulled the older man down and try to put all his feelings in one kiss..

I love you too…

Confused

“Oh! Good morning Chunnie!!”

Disclaimer: Boys weren’t mine TT-TT, song aren't mine either…

A/N:
- This one is different from my usual style and honestly, took me the longest to write -.-‘’’

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown

So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

“Jae… listen.. I..”

“No. I don’t want to listen to anything you have to say. To be honest Yun, I can’t even look at you right now! I mean, how could you?! I get it that you didn’t want to join us, but to actually write a letter stating that you’re supporting them?!! What the fuck?! Seriously… What the fuck?!”

“My parents..”

Scoff.
“Your parents..! Of course! What was I thinking? Of course the famous Mr. All-Around-Nice-Guy, Jung Yunho wouldn’t even dreams of going against his parents’ wishes.. even though they’re dead wrong! I mean, you can’t even tell them that you’re gay… let alone let them know about me. What?! Too scared they couldn’t take it that their precious son likes to take it up the ass?!”

Yunho flinched at the angry vulgar words that came out from the pretty man’s mouth.

Jaejoong – feeling part guilty, part cruel satisfaction- stares blankly at the pained look on his lover’s face.
God knows how much he loves the adorable, insufferable younger man. Even now with all these craps in their life affecting the relationship between them, he’s still so much in love with Yunho that sometimes he wished that he could just grab the leader and take far away and just shield him from the rest of the world.
Saying that, he also sometimes feels like he could happily strangle the idiot.

Yunho took on the title of Mr. Nice Guy to a whole new different level! He never says no to anyone. Jaejoong knows for fact that his lover is not stupid… nor is he the kind of person who likes sucking up to other people. Yunho actually genuinely happy and sincere in helping others, however Jaejoong never sure if Yunho is truly naïve or just plain oblivious (Jae suspected it was the latter) to the fact that not everyone as nice as he is and the world is full of people just waiting to take advantage of the leader’s gentle and giving nature. Luckily for the ditzy man, his lover is almost always by his side to make sure that nobody dare to use his kindness…. Well, at least not in front of Jaejoong. Because unlike Yunho – who tends to think everyone’s his best friend from the first sight – Jaejoong is a suspicious and cynical by nature. If he didn’t like someone, he wouldn’t hesitate to voice out his opinion on the said person.

Another thing that gets on Jaejoong’s nerve is his lover’s family… more specifically the parents (coz JiHye is actually pretty cool for a younger sister). Mr and Mrs Jung is the epitome of conservative, old-school generation. In other words, they think and behave like they have a huge stick so far up their asses that it wasn’t even funny. Jaejoong knew he was being rude but he truly can’t stand Yunho’s uptight parents. Putting aside the quiet disdain they has towards him – apparently they think Yunho’s effeminate friend is a bad influence on their manly son – it really bugs Jaejoong the way they treat Yunho himself. Oh no, they’re not abusive… well, at least not physically. But the way they trying to control Yunho’s life, constantly putting him down – Jaejoong understands the importance of humility and modesty (though he seldom practice it himself -.-‘’’), but up to the point you’re battering down your own son’s self-confidence?? Wasn’t that too much?! – and they never believe in him… All these makes Jaejoong wonders if Yunho wasn’t actually secretly adopted or accidentally exchanged when he was a baby.. How else would you explain two hard-assed people could produce such a gentle and cute son?

Despite all that, Yunho really loves and respect his parents. Loves them so much that he keeps calling them no matter where he is and even though it’s more often than not that his father would hang up on him so suddenly just because he thought YUnho was talking too much, the leader still without fail would call them to tell about his day happily.

Jaejoong knew and accepted that part of Yunho – no matter how much he wished he could just shake some sense into the younger man – He understands YUnho’s sense of obligation and responsibility towards his parents and towards the company as the group’s leader. Which is why, he didn’t bother to argue to make Yunho join them in their lawsuit against their company. He figured that when they win (or lose) the case, he will make sure to take Yunho and Changmin from SME. Let only three of them have to go through all the hardship of the uphill battle against the big company. Yunho has enough on his plate while Changmin, no matter how matured he is now.. in Jaejoong’s eyes, he will always be the maknae that should be protected and care for.

Yes. Jaejoong prided himself to be an understanding lover… But even he can’t find it in himself to understand this… this betrayal. He guessed he is being a bit too harsh on Yunho currently though. Chances are, Yunho might have some good reasons for him to do what he did.. However, it might do the younger man good to be kept on his toes sometimes, right?

’Couldn’t spoil him too much now, can we..’, Jaejoong thought to himself while steeling his heart against the heartbreaking hurt look on Yunho’s face.

Yunho bit his lips and casted his eyes downwards under the cold stare of his lover. He knew he was wrong… regretted it from the second after he signed the stupid letter. He wanted to tear it up there and then but their manager had snatched the letter right away and told him it was the right thing to do… or else…

He had decided to go and see his parents after that… for what exactly? He didn’t know.. Maybe for some consolation, some encouragement for what he was about to do?

As usual, Yunho can never guess if they’re happy to see him or not. Between his mother’s distant, polite gesture of affection and his father’s stern and harsh grunt, sometimes Yunho feels like an outcast and he didn’t know how to behave or react around his family anymore..

As his parents rant on how ’stupid your other three members are’, ’they should be thankful to the company’, ’Don’t the have any manners at all?!’ and how ’they’re bad influence on you especially that Kim Jaejoong boy.. You better keep your distance from the likes of him.’
Yunho had been listening silently but with mounting frustration bubbling up inside of him and at the last bit on Jaejoong, he finally snapped..

“Mom, Dad.. I’m gay. I’m gay and I’m in love with Jaejoong.”

******** ******** ************

“Well?!”

Yunho was startled back to the present time with the harsh tone of his lover’s voice. Steeling himself to look Jaejoong squarely in the face, beg for his forgiveness and tell him that Yunho had already done what Jaejoong’s been urging him to do from the first day they started dating two years ago. Raising his eyes from staring at the floor, Yunho was surprise to notice that the elder man was holding a travelling bag in his hand.
’Is Jae going somewhere? I thought he and Yoochun didn’t have to be in Japan until next week?’ Yunho wondered to himself.

“Are you going somewhere Joongie?” he asked softly.

Jaejoong sighed and hefted the heavy bag further up his shoulder.
“Yes. I’m going to Busan for a short break.”

“Um… are you going to be alone? Would you like for m..”

“No. I’m going with Taegoon.”

Yunho bit his lips slightly, ’Relax Yunho… It’s just a vacation between friends, that’s all..’.
He cleared his throat,
“..Oh..Umm.. Before you go, I want to tell you that…”

“Ok you know what, Yun.. This is over. I’m late enough as it is. I have to go now.”

Sharp intake of breath.
“O..Over? Wh… What do you mean by..”

“God, which part of it’s over didn’t you understand? I really don’t have time for this. Tae’s waiting for me..” Jaejoong started to walk to the front door of their apartment.

“W..wait Jae!” Yunho reached out to the retreating back of his (former??) lover.

Jaejoong stopped and looked at the younger man over his shoulder…waiting.

“I..My parents.. I told..”

“Are you trying to explain about your parents again? Honestly, I’m tired of hearing about them already. Since you’re so hell bent on being a good son, why don’t you just follow whatever it was they told you to do?! … I don’t care anymore. Afterall it’s not as if what I said would matter anyway, would it? Goodbye now.”

’Let him worries on that for couple of days… We’ll sort it out later and I’ll kiss his pout away then..’ Jae smirked while closing the door behind him with a bang.

Yunho sank to the floor wordlessly… The slamming sound of the door vibrates throughout the apartment.
“… I told them that I love you..” he whispered softly.

********** *********** ****************

“Mom, Dad.. I’m gay. I’m gay and I’m in love with Jaejoong.”

“……”

“Did you hear me? I said I’m ga..”

*Slap!*.
Yunho’s head snapped to the side painfully.

…………….
………
…..
Then all hell broke loose.

“What did you sad?! No son of mine is gay! No, I refuse to accept this!”

“Mom.. please calm..”

“Your mother is right. Yunho, if you insist on continuing with this.. this abomination, living in sin.. then you’ll be dead to us.. to this family.”

“… You rather disown me than to accept me for who I am, Dad?”

“I rather see you dead then drag the whole family down to hell.”

Deep shuddering breath.
“”… I still choose Jaejoongie”

“So be it then. Don’t show your face near here again. Not until you finally realise and willing to repent your sin!”

“Mother??” Yunho looked at his mother hopefully.

“If I’d known you would turn out like this, I wish I didn’t bring you into the world at all in the first place.” Came the cold reply that makes Yunho feels like his heart is breaking into a million pieces..

He drove back to the city with conflicting emotions.. His heart feels heavy with sadness and yet at the same time lightened with relief. He didn’t have to hide from his family anymore and he also had decided to held a conference press to disregard the supposedly ‘support’ letter for the company. Enough is enough..
He’s tired of being pushed around by people who didn’t even matter. He chose his members against the world…. He chose Jaejoong…

‘It’s okay… It’ll be okay.. I might’ve ‘lost’ my parents but I still have Jaejoong and the guys. They’re my real family now.. It’ll be okay, Yunho.. You can survive this.. With Jae by your side, you’ll survive anything..’
With that consoling thought in mind, Yunho pressed harder on the pedal. He can’t wait to break the news to his lover…

************* ************ ******************

Yunho have no idea how long he had been kneeling on the floor just staring blankly at the door which his lover went out from… Could be minutes, could be hours or days..
He was brought back to his senses when the front door suddenly opened with a bang. He’d half hoped that it’ll be his Jae coming back but it turned out to be just Changmin and from the look of it, the maknae was in some seriously bad mood. He didn’t even glance at his group’s leader and just stomped off to his bedroom.

Yunho sighed.
Right. Forget about his own problem. Currently he’s got to go and finds out what’s bothering Changmin. The youngest is clearly upset about something and it’s up to Yunho as the leader and a hyung to help his members.
’After all, I didn’t have anyone but you guys now..’

He knocked quietly, opened the door and peered inside the room cautiously. Changmin is on the bed with his ipod blasting in his ears and scowl on his face. He took off the earphone when he noticed the leader standing at the door, shuffling his feet nervously.

“What?!” he asked rudely.

“Um… is everything okay Changmin?”

“Yeah.. Everything’s fine and dandy. Why did you ask?”

“Er… nothing.. it’s just that you seem upset so I thought..”

“I’m fine! Everything’s fine. So you can leave now.” Changmin moved to put on his earphones back.

“A..Are you sure? Coz..”

The maknae just exploded then,
“For fuck’s sake! Can’t anyone have a moment’s peace to himself in this house?!” He jumped off the bed and started stalking towards Yunho who shrank back in alarm, “I told you I’m fine, didn’t I?! Just fucking leaves me alone! Why do you always have to butt in everyone’s life?! Just because you’re the leader – and a fucking useless one at that!- doesn’t give you the right to be a busybody! Know what, just go to hell already! Nobody needs you here! We’re tired of you!!”

It’s like one of those surreal moments where Changmin feels like he has no control over his body and can only watched in horror as he hurt his best friend with his cruel words.

’What the hell am I saying? Stop. Stop!’
He thought frantically as he watch the chocolate brown eyes in front of him slowly starts welling up with suppressed tears.

“I…I’m sorry… I didn’t..” Yunho stammered out.

“Whatever..” Changmin shoved the elder man out of his way and went to the kitchen. He thought he better cool down first before he starts apologizing to his hyung.

Stumbling backward from the impact – wincing as his back met with the hard door frame – Yunho could only look helplessly at the retreating back of the maknae. The youngest’s words ringing in his ears..

”Useless leader!”
“No one needs you here!”
Go to hell already!”

Suddenly Yunho feels like he’s suffocating. Like all the air has been sucked out of the room.. He can’t breathe! He needs to get out from there..
Grabbing his wallet and keys, Yunho stumbled out the door with no clear destination in mind…

*********** ************ *******************

“Yah! Are you sure you’re alright?”

Jaejoong looked over to one of his best friends, Taegoon. The younger man is peering at him from underneath his bangs with worries in his eyes.
Both of them had just come back to their hotel room after a very relaxing day spending time exploring the local beauty and interests of Busan. However, Jaejoong can’t fully enjoyed himself as there’s always a niggling feeling at the back of his mind.. Guess he is feeling guilty for the way he and Yunho part that morning.

He smiled tiredly at his dongseang,
“I’m alright.. Why did you ask?”

The other man shrugged and went back to unpacking his bag.
“Nothing.. You just seemed distracted today.. and whole lot quieter too from the last time we met..”

“Ah~.. I’m just tired.. All this lawsuit and drama, you know.. makes me feel every bit of my age..”

Scoff.
“You’re only 23 years old. That’s hardly what we called old, you know..”

Jaejoong chuckled,
“Yeah.. but still..”

“Fine.. fine.. Well, we better get some rest now. Tomorrow would be another fun-fill day”

********** ************* *****************

“Jae…. Jaejoongie…”

“H..huh?? Wha..? Yunnie?!” Jaejoong stared at his lover who is currently – somehow miraculously – standing besides his bed.

A sweet smile on his face.

Jaejoong rubbed his eyes several times to chased away any traces of sleep. He glanced at the window and confirmed that it’s still in the middle of the night. Across the room, he could see Taegoon’s still form underneath the thick covers. Soft snores indicate that the younger man is still in the dreamland – completely unaware of their unexpected visitor.

“Yunnie?? How come you’re here? Did you drive all the way from seoul in the middle of night? Is everything okay at home?” Jaejoong is working himself up to a panic attack..
’Omona! What if one of the kids is sick or something?!’

Yunho continues to smile gently and shook his head, He then kneeled besides the bed quietly and took one of Jaejoong’s hand in between his own. Jaejoong winced at the coldness of the other’s hands.

“Don’t worry.. Everyone’s fine..”

Hearing that, Jaejoong breathe a sigh of relief and then snatched his hand away from the leader’s hold to swap the younger man on the side of his head and hissed angrily,
“The hell?! You nearly gave me a heart attack, Yunho! Why the fuck are you here anyway? Sneaking into our room like a thief.. Come to think of it, how on earth did you know where I’ll be staying anyway?!”

Yunho didn’t answer. He just continues to look at Jaejoong with a gentle expression.
“Jae-ah… I love you.. I really really do..”

Jaejoong started to feel uncomfortable. There’s something wrong here but he can’t exactly put his finger on what it is.. Yunho is acting so weird now..
“I know that, pabo..” he replied gently and tucked a lock of Yunho’s damp hair - ’Is it raining outside?’ he wondered absently – behind his ear.

“Do you? I’m really glad then..” Yunho smiles happily.
Suddenly he turned towards the balcony, as if seeing something in the distance that no one else can see..
“Joongie-ah.. I have to go now. Don’t forget okay.. I love you and I’m sorry..”

“Huh? Where are you going? You better stay here for the night. Don’t drive back at this time.. yah! I’m talking to you..”

Jaejoong got off the bed to go to Yunho who went near the sliding door that led to the balcony.. The younger man smiled sadly at his lover and Jaejoong’s surprised, suddenly disappear only to reappear at the other side of the glass door. He lightly stepped on top of the balcony’s railings.

Jaejoong’s eyes widened with alarm. He quickly opened the sliding door,
“Yunnie.. Wha.. What are you doing? Please baby… come down from there..” he begged at his lover.

Yunho tilted his head slightly and gave Jaejoong one single adorable, most heartbreaking smile and whispered,
“Goodbye Joongie.. Do miss me sometime..”

He fell backwards into the darkness…

************* ************ ***********

“Yunnie!!”

Jaejoong sat up with a gasp. Heart pounding, he looked around wildly..

“Uh..unn.. Wha.. What is it hyung? Did you have a nightmare?” the sleepy voice of Taegoon broke into Jaejoong’s foggy mind.

‘A dream… it was just a dream..’, he thought in relief..
“It’s nothing Tae-ah.. Just go back to sleep. I’m sorry I woke you up..”

The slight grunt coming from the other bed told Jaejoong that the other is already halfway back to being unconscious again. He glanced at the bedside table and noticed it’s currently 2:33 am.. Feeling more wide awake than he ever had, he went to the bathroom to wash his face.
Under the harsh fluorescent light he can see with stark relief the faint fatigue bruises underneath his eyes and the unnatural paleness of his face.. The dream had affected him more than he like to admit.

’I need to hear his voice… I need to know that he’s alright..’.

Jaejoong retrieved his phone from underneath his pillows and went to the balcony as not to disturb his roommate.
The cold fresh night air chased away the last of his tiredness. Jaejoong sat down on the bit of the stone ledge that was jutting out and dialled his lover’s no.

’Yunnie-yah…. Please pick up..’

***************** ************** **************

Yunho is pretty sure he is drunk but can’t find it in himself to care.
Looking up and admiring the twinkling stars that scattered like diamonds against the dark blue velvet of the night sky, Yunho was glad he had drove all the way from the city to Incheon.

Here, is the secluded cliff where Yunho and Jaejoong always come to when the pressure of their life becomes too much to bear. Here is where could become just Yunho and Jaejoong instead of U-Know and Youngwoon. Yunho smiled faintly as he remembers all the delicious ache he always made to suffer after each visits resulting from their vigorous lovemaking out here with nothing but vast great sky, soft green grass and the sound of crashing waves hitting the rocky bottom of the cliff below. His lover is always extra excited when they do it out here. The possibility that they might get caught heightened his pleasure.

But now, everything is lost… There would be no more Kim Jaejoong in Jung Yunho’s world…

”This is over!”

Yunho took another swig out of his soju bottle.. There are already six empty ones strewn around him carelessly.

“You’re dead to the family!”

“Why are you being such a busybody?!”

“I’m going on a trip with Taegoon.”

“Don’t come back here!”

“No son of mine is gay!”

“Why don’t you go to hell already?!”

“I wish I didn’t bring you into the world”

“Why don’t you just follow whatever it was they told you to do?! I don’t care anymore.”

“Nobody needs you here!”

“It’s over..”

Like a broken record, all the voices keep playing themselves over and over in Yunho’s alcohol-clouded mind. He keeps chugging the soju like his life depended on it, in hopes to drown all the accusing voices.
He didn’t even have the strength to cry anymore.. He’s just.. numb.

The wind blew strong from the sea.
’There’s going to be a storm tonight..’ Yunho thought to himself absently.
Crawling to the edge of the cliff, he looked down at the rocky bottom.

‘Mom and Dad wished that they never had me… Changmin said that I’m useless and he also wants me to go to hell.. What would you want me to do, Joongie? I always thought you’ll be by my side forever.. but you’re tired of me too, aren't you..?.. You said that I should follow whatever my parents said.. Is that it? If I’m not here anymore, would you be happier then?’

Yunho stood up shakily, walked up to the very edge and looked down at the waves crashing angrily against all the big rocks.
Heart pounding, he bit his lower lip hard as if steeling himself against such scary sight.

’This is the best way for everyone.. Be brave, Yunho.. It’ll be over soon. This is the last time you could make everyone happier.. Remember your parents? Your beloved dongseangs?... Your Joongie? This is for them… Close your eyes if you’re scared, it’ll be okay..’

Taking a deep shuddering breath, Yunho lifted his leg,took a step forward….

………………
………
...

And on the grass, the phone rang.. and rang.. and rang..

They dedicate their lives
To RUNNING all of his
He tries to please THEM all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me..

~finis~

WTF?!!! SME!!! WTF??!!!...like seriously??!!!!!

2009-11-02T16:27:25Z

Though today is Monday a.k.a the worse day of the week, I actually had a pretty good time at work. Laughter and relaxation all around lifted my mood that I just cant wait to get home and finish my DBSK fic.. I was so excited and full of ideas.. heck, even as I was walking back home I was lost in the wonderful world of daydreaming - full with plots and fic bunnies to write at least 4 - 5 fics..

SO there I was, switched on my laptop happily and all prepared to get down and actually type out all these wonderful ideas just waiting to burst from inside of me..
However, before I start.. as usual, I went and checked the news about the boys in YunJae Everlasting forum.

BIG MISTAKE.

Omo??!! what's this?? Just when I thought that everything would be alright for them, I got the news that stupid shit fucking assholes at SME brew new trouble for the boys! I swear to God that for a moment there, I had a heart attack.. Of course, I kept on digging and went to numerous site e.g: DBSG comm. and again..

BIG MISTAKE.

Yah!! What's this??!!! There was an article that said Yunho and Changmin support SME??!!! what the fuck??!!!! like seriously??!! what the FUCK???!!!!!!!!!!! If before I thought I had a heat attack, this time I'm pretty sure my heart stopped completely TT-TT.. And Yunho's dad said he disapprove of the other three members for bringing the troubles to the group.. I'm sorry.. but Fuck You, Mr Jung! I know that Yunho respects and loves you but honestly, Were you even thinking about your son's well-being at all?? or are you blinded by the money as well? Were you the one that has to work non-stop until you actually collapsed in exhaustion?! Were you the one that has been losing sleep until all the make-up in the world cant concealed your eyebags anymore?! Were you the one that has to fly back and forth from numerous countries that the airport almost become your second home?! Were you the one that are forced to see all your hard-earned money went to someone else just because when the contract were made, you were too young to really understand and too desperate for just a chance to make your dreams come true?!!

Dont get me wrong, I'm not mad at all at Changmin and Yunho.. I'm certain that they were forced by their parents or SME to make statement like that. While I'm not angry, I am however incredibly sad for them.. for all of them.. It's not fair.. it's just not fair.. And I'm not saying this because I'm a fan. I would like to think myself as a just person. It doesn't matter how much you like someone, fair's fair. If they're at wrong, fine. I can accept that, however painful it may be.. but, I'm sorry.. No matter how I tried to look at this in different perspective/angles, it's pretty obvious that the company is at fault here.

I always believe good things happen to good people.. That everyone will get their just rewards. However, this had shake my belief and now I'm incredibly sad.. I desperately want everything to be alright for the boys.. NOT because I'm a fan.. but because I need to believe that there is still hope in the justice system.

And honestly? those five boys are just too precious to be ruin by something so stupid as this. Talents like them dont come along everyday.. and when they're together, angels just sing.. I have always like music.. but I have to admit that when I heard them the first time, that was when I start to fell in love. And every single time I heard them sing, I feel like my heart overwhelm and every single time they managed to take my breath away. I dont even understand Korean and Japanese.. but whenever I heard them, I can feel the words, the melody, the emotion.. Tell me, how many singers that we can honestly truly say that about them??

DBSK HWAITING!!!!

- Honestly, JaeHo aren’t even supposed to be in the fic.. heck, none of the other guys aside from Yoochun and Junsu are suppose to be in the fic.. But I guess I can’t resist Yunho’s cute puppy’s eyes *pinch Yunnie’s cheek* -.-‘’’..
- This is my sort-of welcome back fic.. Ah~ I’m missing my vacation time already ..>.<.. Anyone miss me?? XXDDD..

’Do you hear me,
I’m talking to you..’

They’re best friend… They’ve been best friends ever since that first day in nursery where two and a half years old Yoochun accidentally knocked over Junsu’s blocks and the chubby younger toddler retaliate by biting the other’s arm with all seven of his little teeth. The teacher came over to see what the commotion all about and when she can’t stop the two babies from crying, she felt like such a failure that she started wailing herself – it was her first day on her first job.

The two toddlers quiet down, looked at each other and started patting their teacher’s arm clumsily to console her in their own cute way.

**************

’Across the water,
Across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my..
Baby, I’m trying.’

Yoochun looked out at the pouring sky and pouted. Why does it have to rain today of all days? Mommy and Daddy both are out of town on business and he had told his nanny the night before not to pick him up because he’s going to a friend’s house… well… he’s supposed to go to his friend’s house but then Yunho’s mommy called the school today and informed them that Yunho and his brother, Jaejoong have caught the chickenpox and thus would be absent for a week or so.

’Traitor’ Yoochun thought, pouting again. ’Stupid Yunho.. didn’t we pinkie promised to catch the chicken pox together?! Humph.. I bet Jae-hyung were the one who forced Yunho to get sick with him..’.

Yoochun didn’t know why but his friend’s big brother didn’t seem to like Yoochun very much. Though to be fair, Jae-hyung didn’t really like any of his baby brother’s friends. He’s so protective of Yunho that every single time Yunho said that he’s going out to play with anyone, Jaejoong would make sure he knows exactly where they’re going and what time they going to bring Yunho back… one minute later than promised and they’re dead – the friends, not Yunho.. never ever Yunho.. Yoochun thinks that Jae-hyung is incapable of saying ‘no’ to his little brother. Being an only child, Yoochun often feels jealous when he watch how caring Yunho older brother is towards him – always kissing his cheeks and making him the tastiest lunch every day.

The seven years old boy squat down near one of the pillar overlooking the school’s yard with a sad sigh..
Now what? By the looks of it, it’s going to be pouring for quite a while. Should he wait? Or should he just make a run for it?

A sudden flash of lightning and a roar of thunder make the decision for him. Yelping slightly, Yoochun hid himself behind the pillar. Just then, a high-pitched voice came up behind him…

“Chunnie? You okay?”

Yoochun turned around and saw, to his surprise, his other best friend standing there. Cute as can be in his yellow raincoat with one mini duck shaped umbrella in one hand.

“Junsu? I thought you already left? Didn’t you said that your uncle is coming today so you have to go home early?”

The chubby boy shrugged at the question,
“I was waiting for you. I knew that Yunho didn’t come to school today coz he’s sick and you didn’t bring your Micky Mouse umbrella, did you?”

Yoochun shook his head wildly and pouted,
“I left mine at home..”

Junsu grinned widely at his friend then,
“I knew it! Don’t worry Chunnie.. I brought mine so we can share it and go home together.”

Yoochun looked at the small umbrella in doubt,
“But.. don’t you think it’ll be too small for both of us to fit under there?”

Junsu scrunched up his face at the query. Apparently he hasn’t thought about that small fact. Hmm…. What to do?..what to do??.. Then his little chubby face brightened up.
“I know! Why don’t you hug me and I’ll hug you when we’re walking?! That way, I can definitely cover us both!”

Yoochun clapped his hand in delight and looked at Junsu admiringly,
“Waaahh… you’re so smart Susu-ah!! Okie, we’ll definitely should do that.. Thanks Susu.. You’re my best friend in the world!” ^__^.

And so; hugging each other tightly, they stepped out into the rain – laughing and joking. Two best friends without a care in the world, just a simple innocent certainty that this… this precious friendship they has will lasts forever.

*******************

’Boy I hear you in my dreams,
I feel your whisper across the sea.’

“Chunnie!!!!”

The lanky fourteen years old Park Yoochun turned at the sound of his name being called… well.. shouted would be probably be a more apt description.

Kim Junsu, one part of the BFF trio – Yoochun and Yunho are the other two- are running and waving crazily at him, all the while trying to avoid collision with numerous students miling around the cafeteria with their lunch trays. His cute, rounded face has the widest, brightest grin Yoochun had ever seen on anyone’s face – and that includes the time when Yoochun’s family brought his food obsessed cousin, Changmin to an all-you-can-eat buffet!. Junsu’s eyes also sporting this weird maniacal gleam in them – making Yoochun thinks back on when the trio tried sniffing glue as a dare from one of the older kids as the condition to join with the ‘cool’ kids’ group. That was one of the most painful experience all three of them had ever got in their then 9 years of short life. All three of them got so high and then violently sick. Their parents found out about it when they brought them to the hospital after all three children were puking and coughing everywhere.

Junsu got grounded for a month and all of his video games were taken away while Yoochun still remembers with clarity how hard it was to sit down for nearly a week for the spanking he got from both of his parents plus he got grounded for three weeks. As for Yunho, even though he only got a stern ‘talking-to’ from his parents and was only grounded for a week – apparently being the youngest has much better advantage than being an only child like Yoochun TT-TT -, his older brother was so angry at him that he had slapped the younger boy right thre and then in the hospital’s hallway. Everybody was stunned especially Yunho. Jaejoong hardly ever raised his voice at his little brother.. let alone hit him!

Jaejoong looked shocked at his own action and Yunho promptly burst into tears and ran to their mother's arms for comfort – refusing to even look at his panicking older brother. Later Yunho confided in Yoochun and Junsu that Jae-hyung was so sorry he had hit Yunho that he had stayed in the youngest’s room the whole night and kept kissing the red and sore cheek. Jae-hyung had also promised to bring Yunho and his two best friends to the amusement park after all of them finished with their punishment. Yoochun thought that Yunho got to be the luckiest and most spoiled kid ever. Honestly, who on earth got rewarded for misbehaving??! >.<..

Back to the present,
Yoochun blinked at the heaving, red-faced Junsu who plopped down on the empty seat in front of him and casually helps himself to one of the fries on Yoochun’s plate. Yunho came up to them at that time and put his own tray on the table and stands next to Junsu.

“Dammit! They ran out of those caramel pudding!” The usually gentle teenager pouted adoringly, “ Yah! Junsu.. move over a bit!”

Junsu ignored the grumpy boy and just pulled him down to sit next to him,
“Shut up.. There’s plenty of room there. Now guys, guess what! Just got the best news ever!” He grinned wildly at his two best friends. Both of them look back curiously. Junsu’s grin got wider, if that’s even possible..
“Listen.. I just got the news that I was chosen to be one of the permanent members in the soccer team!”

“Really?! Wow! Congratulation!!” Yoochun is genuinely happy for his friend. Junsu has always been a soccer maniac for as long as Yoochun knows him. The cute boy had been so nervous last week before he tried out for the school’s team. Aside from the fact that their school’s soccer team is the best in the district, there was also the matter of the very strict team’s captain. Which is none other than Yunho’s older brother, Jung Jaejoong a.k.a the school’s Ice Prince. All the teachers love Jaejoong for his perfect grade, the boys want to be like him and all the girls are in love with the guy. They also knew that Jaejoong never has his eyes on anyone else aside from his baby brother.

“Yeah Junsu.. Congrats!! See.. I told you that Jae-hyung wasn’t that bad. You were nervous for nothing!” Yunho smiled happily at his friend.

“Maybe to you he’s not scary. To the rest of us mere mortals, Jaejoong-hyung is like a cold angel that could only be admired from far and cannot be touch..” Junsu shoved lightly at Yunho.

Suddenly there was a sound of throat being cleared behind them. Yoochun looked up and saw the very person they were discussing about standing directly behind his two bickering friends. The cold beautiful face is frowning down at Junsu.

“What are you doing Kim Junsu? Did you just shoved Yunho?”

Junsu started stammering,
“Er..I..ah..”

Yunho looked up at his beloved hyung and grinned mischievously,
“We were just playing around, Jae-hyung..”

Jaejoong smiled softly down at Yunho and pat his head gently,
“Is that so? Alright then.. By the way, here you go. I got this for you.” He handed a small plastic container to Yunho.

“Omo! My favourite caramel pudding!!” Yunho squealed in delight, “ Thank you hyung! You’re the best!”

Jaejoong chuckled at his excited baby brother and bend down to kiss the top of the other’s head gently. He laughed again when he saw Yunho’s blushing red face.

“Hyuuunng~.. not in public, remember? You promised!”

“Ah~ Mian Yunnie.. You just looked so cute that I can’t resist..” Jaejoog stroked and pinched his brother’s cheek lightly – making the younger boy stick out his tongue cheekily. All around the table, other students watch the scene with great interests. All the girls and more than half the boys are leering lustily at the sight of the school’s Ice Prince laughing happily with his baby brother. Not a single one of them didn’t wish that they are in Yunho’s shoes at the moment. Used to the attention, Jaejoong just ignored them, with his icy expression slid back into place, he turned to Junsu.

“Kim Junsu. Practice at three o’clock today. Don’t be late..”

“Yes Captain.”

All three of the freshmen watched as the enigmatic senior walked off from the cafeteria.

Yoochun turned to Yunho,
“You have some serious brother complex, man..”

Yunho blushed.
“I did not! We’re just very close, that’s all… Yah! Kim Junsu! What do you think you’re doing?!”

Junsu looked up guiltily from the caramel pudding he’s been devouring without Yunho’s notice.
“Uhm… I’m hungry?” puppy’s eyes

“I’m going to tell on you to Jae-hyung! I’ll make sure he makes you run at least 10 laps around the field!”

Junsu looked at Yoochun for some sympathy and pouted when his friend just hold up both hands indicating he doesn’t want to get involve.

As Yunho keeps on ranting and Junsu trying to calm him down, Yoochun just laughed.

…Life is good.

*****************

’I keep you with me in my heart,
You make it easier when life gets hard’

Yoochun hugged his knees tighter to his body. He just stares silently at the fish pond in front of him. The lazy, calm movement of the three colourful kois in the water are the complete opposite of the turmoil in his heart. Behind him, Yoochun could hear soft murmurs of his family’s friends and neighbours from inside the house. The gloomy, sombre atmosphere and all the softly whispered condolences drove Yoochun out to the garden, leaving his father to deal with all the guests. He knew that everyone meant well… but he just feels suffocated at the moment.. and numb.

Yoochun sensed more than heard someone coming up to him. Even without turning around he knows who the newcomer is. The familiar expensive spicy woody scent that wafted through the breeze confirmed the other’s identity. The person sat down next to the 15 years old Yoochun without saying anything and just waited patiently.

Yoochun glanced at his side briefly before turning back to stare at his pond. After a few minutes of silence, the other cleared his throat slightly – making Yoochun smiled faintly. Junsu never been good at keeping quiet for more than few seconds – and opened his mouth,

“Yunho called in just now. He’s cutting short on his family’s vacation. His flight from Australia will arrive tomorrow’s evening. He’s sorry that he can’t be here today..”

Yoochun shrugged,
“He doesn’t have to.. It’s no big deal, you know.. It won’t change anything anyway..”

“I… We know.. But..” Junsu trailed off.

“Thank you.”

Silent. Then,

“Junsu-ah, do you believe in God?”

Junsu looked at his friend in surprise but before he could reply, Yoochun continued:
“I never used to.. before this.. B..But if I promise to believe and pray real hard everyday, do you think that God would give her back?... If not for long, maybe just for a little while?..”

Junsu bit his lips and said quietly,
“It doesn’t work that way, Chunnie..”

Yoochun laughed bitterly,
“Yeah, I guess it doesn’t.. I just… I just want to make sure she knows that I love her.. That she is.. was the best mom in the world… That I’m sorry for always arguing with her…. That I’m missing her.. so very very much..”At this, his voice broke and all the tears he had so desperately hold at bay spilled forth.

Junsu didn’t say anything. He just pulled the other boy into his arms and stroked Yoochun’s hair softly.

“Susu-ah.. she’s gone.. My mom’s gone.. What am I suppose to do now? I’m lost Susu-ah..” Yoochun sobbed into his friend’s chest. His tears soaked through the black suit.

“Ssh.. sshh Chunnie… It’s okay.. We’ll figure it out, alright? You still got me and Yunho.. and even though your dad is hardly ever home, he still loves you – his only child, very much..” Junsu hugged the sobbing boy closer and kissed his left temple.. “And Chun-ah.. whenever you feel lost, just look to your side and I’ll be there to guide you back.. always.. I promise.. So cry for your lost today.. but from tomorrow, you musn’t be sad anymore, okay?”

Yoochun nodded.
That was exactly what he did for the rest of the afternoon. He grieved for all the his mom’s lunch boxes he’ll never taste again, for all the goodnight kisses he would miss, for all the song-filled afternoons where it would be just two of them and the grand old piano where she first taught him how to play, for all the whispers and comfort and laughter and tears and all the ‘I-love-you-mommy’ that he won’t ever have the chance to say again.

He cried and cried on that warm, bright afternoon – hidden and secure in Junsu’s arms…
When tomorrow comes, he will smile again with his best friends on his sides.

…. And life goes on…

*****************

‘I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend.
Lucky to have been where I have been.
Lucky to be coming home again..’

Their first kiss was nothing like in the movies or all those shoujo-ai mangas that Yunho so obsessed about. There are no silver bells ringing or flowers suddenly blooming out of nowhere. No little rainbows popping everywhere nor were there any pretty bluebirds chirping merrily. There’s no sudden urge to burst into songs and neither one of them is suddenly surrounded by twinkling lights which enhanced the stars in their eyes.

It was just another normal hot day. The three of them were on the school’s rooftop, lazing around during lunch time. Seventeen years old and at the time of their life where they think the whole world owes them.

Yunho was showing them some stupid magic tricks – he got it in his mind that he’s actually the reincarnation of Houdini, Junsu was laughing at his idiot friend when he happened to glanced at the third member of their trio. Yoochun was sneezing non-stop caused by the slight cold he somehow had caught.

It was during one of Yoochun’s ‘face-scrunching, spit-flying’ fit that suddenly, there it was: Junsu just thought,
’Hey.. I want to kiss him..’

So he did.
………
…….
…..
..

When they parted, both of them were panting for breath. Junsu opened his eyes slowly to see Yoochun looking at him wide-eyed and Yunho just stared at both of them, dumfounded.

Junsu figured he better start explaining… although to tell the truth, he has no idea what’s going on himself..

“Uh.. I..”

That was as far as Junsu got before Yoochun suddenly sneezed directly on his face.. Which broke the spell for all three of them..

“What the hell?? Chunnie! That was gross!”

“Wasn’t my fault! You’re the one who kissed me suddenly. I was surprised!”

“Ooohh.. are you guys like together together?? I knew it!”
Happy grin.
“”Eh? wait a minute, does this mean that I’ll be the third wheel?? Should I get a boyfriend too??... But Jae-hyung said I can’t..”
Pout.

“What do you mean it wasn’t your fault?! Who asked you to be so cute even when you’re sneezing? And don’t tell me you didn’t like it when I kissed you! Your tongue was in my mouth!”

“Yah! Are you a pervert? Who on earth would think someone is cute when they’re sneezing?! And fyi, my tongue was in your mouth because it didn’t have anywhere else to go! Your tongue pushed it away from its home!! I don’t like you..!”

“Well that’s too bad coz I love YOU!” Junsu shouted…

Both Yoochun and Junsu stared at each other, heaving for breath.
Yunho had totally ignored them both by now and was trying to call his Jae-hyung to complaint that he’s now the third wheel and how unfair it was that he can’t have a boyfriend. Of course, Yunho had conveniently forgot that it was 3 am in Los Angeles where Jaejoong currently is after deciding to pursue his dream of becoming a photographer.

“Eh..?? R..Really??” Yoochun asked softly, face flushed – partly of embarrassment and partly because of his cold.

Junsu rolled his eyes and said,
“Of course I do, idiot.. I’ve loved you ever since you stomped my blocks like a gorilla on rampage in the nursery.”

He reached for the adorable boy to kiss those soft lips again. But before he could do that, Yoochun held his hands up to stop the leering boy.

“Stop right there. No kissing until I get rid of this cold. I don’t want you to get sick too..”

Junsu pouted, “Not even one tiny peck? Please Chunnie??”

Yoochun shook his head firmly and giggled a bit at Junsu’s sulking face.

Anyway, that was how the story of their first kiss went… Hardly romantic for sure.. but it was just so.. them.. and that was what matters..

Of course, this could hardly compares to the chaos when they finally decided to do it.. yep, the BIG IT..

Let just say that Junsu looked like a panda for nearly a week while Yoochun was limping and glaring at his boyfriend at every chance he gets..

“Fucker!” Yoochun complained to the laughing-his-ass-off Yunho while ignoring the kicked puppy look Junsu threw his way, “he poked my ass, I blackened his eye. Serves him right!”

………….
………
……
…

Fail.
Epic fail..

*****************

‘They don’t know how long it takes
Waiting for a llove like this.
Everytime we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss.
I’ll wait for you I promise you,
I will..’

“So you’re leaving.”

“I.. Yoochun, I’m sorry..”

Brittle laugh, “Why? It wasn’t your fault..”

“I was thinking that maybe I can not go.. I mean they have great medicine course here too. SO I don’t have to go all the way to Harvard. And we..”

“Junsu.. Stop. Don’t say that.. Do you have any idea what a great opportunity this is? Your future would be secure and so much brighter if you accept the scholarship.”

“B..But I don’t want to be away from you.. What kind of boyfriend would I be if I..”

“Let’s break up.”

“W..What?! No Chunnie.. What the fuck?!”

“Listen Su..”

“No! You listen here..! How can you just say that with so much ease?! Let’s break up? What the hell, Chunnie?!” Junsu grabbed both of Yoochun’s upper arms. “Are you that eager to get rid of me?! I refused to just end it like this! Am I the only one that thinks what we have is special?! Are you seeing someone else behind my back?!”

Yoochun had wrenched himself free from Junsu’s tight grip and when he heard the last question, before he knew it he had slapped Junsu.
Hard.
The sound of palm meeting soft flesh echoed like a gunshot. Junsu turned back to face Yoochun. What he saw on his lover’s face makes him regret his earlier outburst. Yoochun’s face now is flushed with anger and hurt. Cherry red lips trembling and his slim body shaking in the effort of trying to control his emotion. Junsu took a step towards him. Apologies are already halfway across his lips.

Yoochun backed away.
“How dare you.. How could you think that of me?” Eyes glistening with tears, Yoochun continues on, “Do you even know me, Junsu? If you could asked… suspected me of such a thing, then maybe we don’t know each other as well as we thought. Maybe breaking up is not such a ridiculous notion afterall..”

Junsu looked at Yoochun who by now is full-out sobbing. Never before Junsu hates himself more than he does at that moment for hurting Yoochun – his most precious person on earth. Hand held out pleadingly, Junsu tried again.

“Chunnie please… Please.. Don’t do this to us…”

“…. Goodbye Junsu..” With that, Yoochun turned around and ran.. away from his one, his love… His best friend..

‘I’m sorry…’

19 years old and already they knew how it felt to have your soul torn away from you…

********************

‘I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again.
Lucky we’re in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday.’

6 years later

“Yoochun-ah..~”

Yoochun rolled his eyes at the whiny voice coming from the phone’s speaker.
“What is it Yunho?”

“You’ll come tonight right? To Jae-hyung’s exhibit… You promised you would. This is hyung’s first show in Korea so we have to give him lots of support..”

Yoochun laughed, “Yunho-ah.. Jae-hyung is already one of the best and most successful photographer in the world. Everybody are clamouring all over themselves to get close to him. I doubt that he needs any support from his baby brother’s friend.. Infact, I think he might’ve prefer if I don’t come. He hates me, you know..”

“No he doesn’t. Jae-hyung said that among all my friends, he can only tolerates you!”

“…. Is that supposed to be a compliment?”

“Coming from Jae-hyung, that was practically a love declaration..”

“..Good point.”

“Anyhoo, you have to come!! You’ve been cooped up in your apartment for far too long! The last time we met was like a month ago!”

“Hey, I’m a composer! We’re supposed to be one of those loner, angsty type.. What, you think I got my ideas from happy fun trip to Disneyland?”

“No.. I think you got your ideas for all those sad songs from Junsu.”

“Yunho..”

“No. I don’t think it’s right. I don’t understand why you guys had to break up! Both of you are perfect for each other! In love.. and best friends too.”

“Yunho.. If you don’t stop right now, I’m going to hang up the phone.”

“…. It’s just not fair, Chunnie.. You were so sad.. still are.. I haven’t seen you laugh… like really really laugh after Junsu left. Not even once.. I miss my friends, Chun-ah.. I miss all three of us..”

Yoochun sighed. Yunho has always been the romantic type. The one that see the world through rose-coloured glass.. The one that believes in soulmates and happily ever after and true love. It doesn’t help that Yunho’s life has always been near picture-perfect. The younger of two siblings, he has full 100% attention from his doting parents and older brother. All of them making sure that Yunho would almost never have to encounter bad experience or difficulty. Which is why it’s hard for him t understand that sometimes life won’t turn out the way you want it to be – no matter how good a person you are.

“Yunho, you know why I have to broke up with Junsu.. He wouldn’t have go for that scholarship otherwise. Long-distance relationship won’t work… We were only 19 and it won’t be fair to either him or me to tie ourselves up to just one person..”

“But you never date anyone else after Junsu anyway… So, what’s the point?” Yoochun could almost hear the pout in his friend’s voice.

“That was because I haven’t found the right person yet.” Yoochun replied.
‘Because everyone else pales in comparison to Junsu’, he added silently.

“Or maybe you’ve already found him but you let him go..” Yunho countered.

“Yunho…”

“I know.. I know.. Shut up or you’ll hang up.. You suck!” Sigh.

Yoochun laughed.

“Anyway about tonight… You have to come. I don’t care if you’re in the middle of composing the greatest song or not.. you have to come! Got it?!”

“Yeah..yeah.. I’ll be there… You’ll just keep on nagging me if I don’t anyway..”

“Glad we’re on the same page then.. Oh Chunnie, it’ll be so much fun! There is an afterparty and everything! So I’ll see you there around 7:30.. dress sharp!”

“I know.. I’ve gotta go now. I just got an idea for new song entitled ‘Yunho is a naggy dork!’”

“Hah! You keep saying that but you know you really love me actually..”

“Not if I value my life.. Jae-hyung would kill anyone who dares to defile his baby brother..”

“Hehe… Unless it was he himself who does it”

“Okay.. Ew.. Yunho, too much information alright!”

“Whatever.. you’re just jealous.. Don’t forget about tonight!”

“I know! Jeez.. just how many times do you want to keep on reminding me?”

“Until you take me seriously, of course. Anyhoo, you could thank me later when you see what I have in store for you tonight.. toodles Chun-ah!!”

“Huh? What are you talking about?? ..Yunho??hello??”

Yoochun stared at the phone in his hand in bewilderment.

********************

‘And so I’m sailing through the sea
To an island where we’ll meet
You’ll hear the music fill the air
I’ll put a flower in your hair.’

Yoochun stood at one corner of the huge hall just watching all the people wondered about in their expensive dresses and suits. Yoochun himself is wearing a simple yet elegant Louis Vuitton sky blue undershirt with white sport jackets and dark blue jeans.

In the middle of the rrom, stood the man of the hour: Jung Jaejoong, himself. Looking as ethereally beautiful as Yoochun always remembers him. His icy expression did nothing to deter the flock of important looking people all vying for the world’s famous photographer’s attention for themselves. And as it always has been, Jaejoong ignores them all preferring instead to focus on his brother who’s currently is chattering excitedly non-stop to his beloved hyung.

The exhibition was a huge success judging by huge number of people who turned up. Looking at all the showpiece, Yoochun understood now why people would pay millions to Jae-hyung for his work. They were all amazing! Every single one of the picture ‘speaks’ to you. One of the best piece of the evening was this one huge sepia toned picture simply titled ‘Passion’. It just showed the arch of a person’s back – gender unclear- the smooth line of the spine as the mystery person arched away from the rumpled dark sheet below. A hint of gentle swell of pert bottom and one smooth thigh with a small tear shaped mole near the hips. The pure sensual sexy aura from that picture had quite a number of people begging Jaejoong to buy the piece from him – price is of no question. But Jaejoong had declined all offers, saying that the picture is from his own private collection and is not for sale.

Yoochun sighed despondently and looked at his watch. It’s nearly midnight and although he didn’t have any specific plan tomorrow, he thinks he should head back home then. He’s already a wee bit tipsy from all the expensive wine he downed that evening on empty stomach. Just as he turned to head towards the entrance, someone stepped in front of him. Yoochun glanced up to the person to excuse himself and couldn’t help but gasp at the familiar face in front of him.

“..Junsu..”

Junsu smiled, “Leaving so soon, Chunnie-ah?”

Yoochun bit his lips nervously. The Junsu in front of him looks sexier and more good-looking then what Yoochun had remembered and yet the warm smile and the gentle voice remains the same.

How is he? Is he a doctor now? Is he coming back for good or is he just back for a holiday? Did he find someone new? Is he still mad at Yoochun?

All these questions were playing around Yoochun’s mind but he can’t bring himself to even look at Junsu properly, let alone makes small talk with him. Tugging at the cuff of his sleeves self-consciously, Yoochun decided to take the easy way out. He’s going to leave.

“Uh.. Hi.. It’s nice seeing you again Junsu.. Uh.. I have to go now.. Umm.. I have some place to go tomorrow.. Ok, bye.”

Instead of side stepping and letting Yoochun pass him by, Junsu just took a step closer to the other man. Yoochun gulped nervously. Junsu leaned down and whispered:

“One dance Chunnie.. For old time’s sake?”

“Wha..What?”

“Just One dance with me.. Or I won’t let you leave..”

There it was, Junsu’s cheeky smile.. The one that never fails to make Yoochun feels weak at knees.

“Come on Chunnie-ah.. What harm could one dance do?”

’Aside from losing my heart to you all over again?’ Yoochun thought to himself. However he just lets Junsu pulled and guided him o the middle of the rrom where quite few couples are already dancing slowly to the soft music.

Yoochun tensed slightly when the other pulled him close – closer than what is appropriate for a dance between two people who are almost strangers.

“”Sshh..” Junsu ran one of his hand up and down Yoochun’s back reassuringly, “Relax Chunnie.. Just listen to the lyrics and go with the flow..”

‘Though the breezes through the trees
Move so pretty you’re all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now’

Yoochun bit his lips lightly,
“Junsu…” he started but the other cut him off.

“No Yoochun-ah.. There’s time to speak and rant and argue for all we want later.. For now, please… I just need to know one thing.. Do you still…?”

Yoochun drew a sharp breath. He knew what Junsu was asking..
He thought how he should deny having any feelings left for the man in front of him. He thought how he should do the right thing and let Junsu go. He thought of the 6 years distance between them…

And then he thought of all the laughter and tears that they shared before. Of all the nights he huddled under the cover – biting his lips until they bleed just to stop himself from breaking down completely after Junsu had left. He thought of how there is no colours and sunc=shine in his life without Junsu. How his heart constricted so painfully every time he looks at the spiderman’ pajamas Junsu had left in his house years ago and how Yoochun still keeps it all these time..

When it really comes down to it, there is only one possible answer to Junsu’s question actually… And Yoochun is tired.. So tired of just existing without being alive..

He dropped his head to hide at the crook of Junsu’s shoulder and whisper:
“I still…”

The arms around him tightened. Junsu drew a ragged breath of relief.
“Thank God.. Chunnie.. I’ve waited so long for you..”

“Junsu.. You too? Still..??”

“So much, baby.. so so much..”

Yoochun could feel himself tearing up at the confession.
“I miss you so much Susu-ah.. I.. Sometimes I don’t think I can go on…”

“Sshh Chunnie.. It’s okay.. We’ll talk more about this later. For now… For now, this is enough.. It’s a new beginning for us Chunnie-yah.. I’ll never let you go again.”

Not everything in this world has to be complicated and dramatic. Sometimes, the simplest thing or gesture works best.

Just like that, they are Chunnie and Susu again.. Best friends for life, lovers for eternity.

It’s pure.
….It’s simple.
………It’s just them.

‘I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again.
Lucky we’re in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday.’

~finis~

A/N:

- Hmm.. stupid ending, I know.. Honestly, the hardest part of writing a fic is how to end it TT-TT.. I suck!
- I was thinking maybe to write one spinoff of this fic focusing on the JaeHo. What do you guys think? Incest! <-- where have all my innocence gone to?? TT-TT
- anyone noticed that Changmin only appeared in ONE sentence in this?? Mian Changmin-ah..*bows low*.. I promise I'll write that MinHo series that I promised you and yes, it'll be a NC-17 one, just the way you like it... *pat Changmin's head comfortingly*
-C/C are <3.. Thanks guys XD

Love;

I'm on HOLIDAY for fuck's sake, people!!

2009-09-25T21:12:33Z

hi...

I'm just gonna come and 'say' it straight out:

With all due respect, please please PLEASE stop sending me pm (private message) demanding for me to add you. Unless if it's something important (e.g: we need to exchange real name/add or any other private information), do try to refrain yourself from sending me any pm... especially if you turned off your OWN pm setting making it impossible for me to reply back. Gah! that seriously pisses me off.. *flail around in annoyance*.

Secondly, I'm on HOLIDAY.. that means, while I might check on my lj sometimes.. there won't be any updating/adding friends etc.. even if there is, it'll be on my own time and terms. So any message with 'what's wrong with me?', 'Why haven't you add me?', 'Add me now!', 'Reply my pm!!' would just makes me go: "huh?? wtf?!"..

DON'T get me wrong.. I really really REALLY am honoured that you want add me and vice versa.. but honestly, did you even READ the post on FRIENDS ONLY?? <-- I put up THREE pretty banners there.. the least you could do is to appreciate them and READ the WHOLE POST TT-TT..
If you do, then you'll notice on WHY I havent and won't add certain people.

I'm not a mean person (just ask any other persons on my f-list <--don't betray me guys!! ^^) but this IS MY lj.. my account.. so wouldn't it makes sense that I have any say on who gets to see it and when to update or what to write??

Please don't think that I have anything against those I haven't added.. I didn't even know you personally so I only have your journal to give me at least certain insights on what kind of person you are.. or if we have similar interests etc..
I'll probably add almost all of you sooner or later (unless you pisses me off, then I'll just ignore/ban you) so just chill, arasso?

Still in holiday mood;
CriZz

p/s: to whoever's interested, I'm writing a SuChun currently and Checkmate chap 10 is coming too :p.

FIC: The Best of Both Worlds - teaser (tentative title)

2009-09-19T19:43:15Z

Tentative Title: Best of Both Worlds

Tentative Pairing: JaeHo or MinHo

Rating: PG-13

Warning: Angst??, Hemaphrodite!Yunho??, Unbeta! (be scared.. be ve~ry scared TT-TT), Yunho-centric

A/N:
-Right, so this is like a teaser of some sort??
- I have two storylines based on this teaser. One is AU!universe (I believe the MinHo pairing would be best for this) and another one is semiAU-Band!Universe (this probably suits JaeHo pairing best). For the semiAU-Band!Universe, I might cancel the idea of Hermaphrodite!Yunho altogether *shrugged*.. Like I said, depends on you guys opinion + how I think I want to go about with this.

“Mrs Jung! Mrs. Jung… calm down!”

“Calm down?!! How can I calm down? I’d just given birth to the devil itself! My son.. no.. there’s no way that thing is my baby! It must’ve been the work of the damned! May Lord forgive me for bringing the devil into the world…”

“Mrs. Jung! This is neither the devil nor is it evil.. This is your baby… Your son! Just because he’s a bit different, doesn’t mean that he doesn’t deserve to be love.. Mrs. Jung, please… listen to me… It’s okay. This sort of cases; while rare, aren’t exactly unheard of. There are people who have the same condition as your baby. It won’t affect anything on their daily lives. They DO need their parents to make them understand that they’re a bit different though. Please Mrs. Jung… Your baby needs you. Don’t shut it out like this…”

“O Lord Jesus, purify my heart and mind.. Forgive me for sins, forgive me for this abomination…”

“…Mrs. Jung….”

*********** ************ ************ ************** ************* *******

Thing is, Yunho never blame his mom. He knows with certainty that she loves him. After all, all mothers love their children, right? Sometimes though, he wonders if she likes him. And if not, he wonders why… Maybe if he found out what he did wrong, she might likes him?

“Useless!! Stupid!! What did I do to get an ugly freak like you?! It’ll be better if I never have you at all!”

……

’Ah… so that’s why..’ he thought absently while trying not to cry out when she pulled his hair and slammed his face against the window.

Somebody…. Anybody… help me.

************ ************* *********** ************ ************ *******

“Hi.. Can I play with you guys?”

The group of small boys turned at the sound of small, shy voice. They turned to each other and smirked. One of the boys – apparently the leader of the group, stepped forward and addressed the newcomer;

“Sure. Why not..”

Chocolate brown eyes widened in delight,
“Really?”

“Really. In fact, we’re just about to play hide and seek. So why don’t you go and hide and we’ll come and find you..”

All of other boys by now were snickering and nudging each other behind their leader’s back. But Yunho never noticed any of that. He was just so happy that they are willing to let him join in. The little boy happily went to find the best hiding spot from his new friends – little did he knows that they were all laughing at him and has no intention whatsoever to play with the freak.
~~~~~~~~

Dusk fell, black clouds overhead indicate that it’s going to be another cold, rainy spring night.
Rain.
What started as just some annoying drizzle became downright torrential pour. It seems like Heaven itself are weeping for the disappearing humanity in all its children down below.
People bustling about - eager to go back to the warmth of their home and family. Mothers start calling in their children to avoid getting caught in the possible coming rainstorm.

All these people… and not even a single one of them notice one lone boy – crouching, hiding under the bridge, shivering in the cold but still waiting in anticipation…

Somebody….Anybody… come and find me

************** *************** ************* ************* ********
Gyeonggi Science High School

“Hey Sungtae! What’s up with you and Jung Yunho?”

Pause. Slam of the locker door.

“Progressing..”

Loud guffaws of laughter.

“That means what? He’s not putting out.. right?”

Snorted sounds of disbelief

“Worse than a chick that bitch is!”

“Whatever.. As long as you don’t forget about the bet..”

“Yeah… yeah.. I’ll have him on his back - begging, by the end of next weekend. Just get your money ready.”

“I doubt that I’ll be the one whose wallet gonna hurt,buddy..”

“Fuck you.”

Laughter…

…… Outside, with one hand on the doorknob, a boy stood, frozen.
Without realizing it, a single tear tracks down his cheek…

Somebody...Anybody... love me
********** ********** ********** ********** ************** ************ ****

Despite what anyone might think, Jung Yunho is not stupid… He might be slow and oblivious at times but he’ll get the point sooner or later.

See, it’s all so simple and obvious now. The secret is to never ever let anyone knows that love or need them. Once you gave them that power over you, that’s it! They’ll think you are stupid and weak and useless. Some people are not meant to be loved, that’s all - not that it’s any of their fault, it’s just the way it is.

Yunho knows this very well and had come to accept the fact that he is one of those people. The important part is to never let anyone else knows that. If anyone else realise what kind of person he is, then they’ll surely be disgusted. Once they see him as the real ugly person he really is, he knows that he’ll be jeered at.

Know who you are.

You’re allowed to admire someone only from afar – you can pretend and lie to borrow a bit of their warmth, as long as they won’t realize it.
But never ever try to claim anyone as your own or God forbid, try to be theirs.
You have no right.
You will only disgust them more.

Know and accept who you are.

Never ever forget that!

… And most importantly, never let anyone finds out.

Somebody… anybody… I’m drowning

********* ************ ************** ************* ************

~end teaser

A/N:
- Right~.. this was quite different from what I'm used to.. no Aegyo!Yunnie?? o.O.
- Should I continue?? (JaeHo or MinHo.. don't worry it's gonna be two totally different fics).
- c/c are <3... be gentle.. this is only a teaser/prologue of sorts >.<..

EDIT: Yah! everyone seems to misunderstood me <--that's because the way you explained it was rubbish, baka!... TT-TT... I just want to know if this teaser is okay enough to continue.. I WANT to write BOTH MinHo and JaeHo.. Only thing is, I just wanted to warn you that the two fics might have similar prologue. ALthough with the JaeHo (Semi-AUBand! fic), I might slash the hermaphrodite!Yunho idea..
Anyhoo, no need to vote for your fav. pairing.. as they're both my fav too XXDDD and I would love to write both fics.
However, this is just a TEASER.. or an idea of some sort??.. nothing definite yet. The JaeHo version, I already had it mapped out (though it keeps changing >.<..). ANd the MinHo one, I'll probably based it on one of Judith McNaught novel 'Double Standard' <-- anyone read this one yet?? marvelous!! one of the best romance book from J.M XXXDDDD *fangirling mode*

- This going to be a different writing style then my usual. As this was supposed to be a fairytale, I want to tell it as if we're reading from one of those old fairytale books.. I hope in some ways, I've succeeded -.-'''.

On with the fic!

Now.. how shall we start our story?? Should I start with ‘once upon a time’? As far as fairy tales go, honestly that was so over done >.<.. How about ‘Long, long time ago..’? Ah~ I know.. why don’t I start with….

Somewhere in the middle nowhere in a faraway kingdom, there lived a king whose queen was the fairest among all living creature. Hair as wavy as the ocean waves and as golden brown as liquid honey, lips as pouty as hunters crossbow and as pink as ripened peach, skin as smooth as roses petal with shade of palest caramel sugar, voice as sweet as the nightingale. Not only was she beautiful, the queen also had the kindest and gentlest heart. It’s needless to say that the queen was very much loved by the king and their subjects. Often one would find her walking hand in hand with her husband and their toddler son in the palace’s garden, enjoying the evening breeze. The kingdom was at its most peaceful since before the king’s grandfather time, crops are abundant during the harvest and the weather is always mild with flowers blooming everywhere. Gods are merciful and the people were happy.

Then the beautiful queen fell ill.

When she felt that her end drew near, she called the king to her and said, “Promise me that you will never marry again, unless you meet with someone who is as beautiful as I am and would be love as I had been”.
Then when the king – in his grief promised all she asked, the beloved queen shut her eyes and passed away peacefully. But the king was not to be comforted, and for a long time never thought of taking another wife.

At last, however, his wise men said, “this will not do; the king must marry again, that we may have a queen.” So messengers were sent far and wide, to seek for a bride as beautiful as the late queen. But there was no princess in the world so beautiful; and if there had been, still there was not one to be found who is as love by her subjects as the late queen had been – as they were all vain by their beauty and noble birth to take notice of those lesser than they are. So the messengers came home – defeated, all their troubles are for nothing.

Several summers pass by and the kingdom crown prince grew up – Prince Yunho was raised mostly by the castle’s servants as his father, the king was too busy to take much mind in his only heir upbringing. This however doesn’t bother the prince the least as even without a mother’s love and barely a father’s one too, he was brought up lovingly by those who once love the queen and would give anything to make sure that her beloved son would want for nothing. The fact that Prince Yunho is almost a spitting image of his late mother, endear himself to the people in the kingdom even more so. The prince also seems to inherit more than just his mother’s good look; he is as gentle as a snowy dove on Christmas morning and one has yet to meet him without the sweetest smile on his face. With almond shaped deep chocolate eyes, lips as red as strawberry blush, smooth baby soft caramel sun-kissed skin and voice as sweet as honey mead – it is no wonder that some might say that he even surpassed his late mother’s beauty.

One day, the king happened to look outside his window to the castle’s garden where the prince is currently playing around with his pet deer. Seeing his son laughing gaily with his face flushed from the morning sun, the king – who in all honesty, hasn’t really recovered from his wife’s death several years ago - felt a pang in his heart. Never has he misses his late wife as much as he does at that moment.
’He looks exactly like you, my heart.’ the king thinks sadly. At this, the king suddenly struck by an idea – or one would say that this the time when the king had finally lost his mind. He called to his loyal courtiers excitedly,

“May I not marry my son? He is; after all, the spitting image of my dead wife: unless I have him, I shall not find any bride upon the whole earth. And you say there must be a queen, have you not?”

Needless to say, when the courtiers heard this they were shocked and said,
“Heaven forbid that a father should marry his own son! Out of so great a sin, nothing good could come.”
However the king was adamant with his decision and told the servant to inform the prince to get ready for their wedding.

Prince Yunho was also shocked by his father’s order but hoped the king would soon give up such thoughts; so he said to him,
“Before I marry anyone I must have three suits: one must be of gold, like the sun; another must be of shining silver, like the moon; and a third must be dazzling as the stars: besides this, I want a mantle of a thousand different kinds of fur put together, to which every beast in the kingdom must give a part of his skin.”
And thus Prince Yunho thought his father would think of the matter no more. But the king made the most skilful workmen in his kingdom weave the three suits: one golden, like the sun; another silvery, like the moon; and a third sparkling, like the stars: and his hunters were told to hunt out all the beasts in his kingdom, and to take the finest fur out of their skins: and thus a mantle of a thousand furs was made.

When all were ready, the king send them to him; but on the night before the wedding when all were asleep, Prince Yunho packed all three suits – of the sun, of the moon and of the stars – and took three trinkets inherit from her late mother: a ring, a necklace and a bracelet. He then wrapped himself up in the fur mantle and besmeared his face and hands with soot. He went to the castle’s stable and bid farewell to his beloved deer, lamenting the fact that this probably going to be the last he will ever pet it and stroked its soft, downy fur.

“If I could, I would bring you with me. But alas, this is a journey that I must take alone. I’m sorry, my friend. May you find freedom and better fate than I could hope for.. I’ll miss you.” He whispered sadly.

Then he threw himself upon the Heaven’s mercy and began his journey. He ran and ran and when he can ran no more; he found a shelter in between the bark of a tree to rest for a while. After he felt a little bit of his strength returned, he ran some more. He journeyed throughout the next two nights – stopping only a few times to rest his tired legs and to eat what little bread and cheese he had packed along, always he would find himself looking over his shoulder in fright in case his estranged father has finally caught up with him. On the sixth night, Prince Yunho came to large woods, hungry beyond belief and about to collapse in exhaustion.

’Tomorrow. Tomorrow morn I’ll continue again.’ He thought tiredly.
With that, he sat himself down in the hollow of a tree, near the clearest spring brook and soon fell asleep: and there he slept on til it was midday, where he was woken up by furious barking of dogs.
************ ************* *********** ************** ********** ****
Now, the woods actually belong to King Changmin. The young king is famous for his snarkiness; aloof demeanour and despite all that, still earned much respect and love from his subjects for being a just and cunning king. Although he inherited the throne at such young age, Changmin had proven himself thrice times worthy to be the king when the kingdom flourished more than it ever had been before under his great forefathers. He is also considered as one of the best eligible bachelor throughout the country for his incredibly good looks. Royals and nobilities far and wide have come to offer their most beautiful ladies and daughters in hope to gain themselves an alliance with the great kingdom. While it amuses him to see all these so-called upper-class ladies fall all over themselves for him, the young king has yet to choose a bride for himself – preferring instead spending his free time with either conversing (read: debating) with his royal advisors or his hobby, hunting.

That morning, as per his habit whenever he feels like the pressure of his responsibilities are a bit too much, the king had decided to go hunting with his huntsmen to clear his mind. When they got near the spring where the king had always stop for a drink of fresh water, the dogs went to one of the largest tree there and began to snuff about, and run round and round, and bark.

“Look sharp!” ordered the king to his men, “See what sort of game lies there.”

The huntsmen went up to the tree and saw a creature like no other. Covered in thousands kind of furs and feathers, cowering in fright at the sight of all the men and their beasts. The men came back to the king and said:

“In the hollow tree there lies a most wonderful beast, such as we never seen before; its skin seems to be of a thousand kinds of furs and its feature are neither of human nor animal for ‘tis black as soot and as dirty too.”

This roused the young king’s curiosity and thus he ordered the men to bring the creature before him. The huntsmen then captured the beast and while jeering at the ugly creature, shove him before the king. Greatly frightened by their rough hands and treatment, Yunho kneeled and plead:

“Please, I’m begging you. I am but a poor creature that has neither father nor mother left. There are no others like me and I am alone in this world. Have pity on me and leave me so. For I am as harmless as doves and have no intention of being otherwise.”

Amazed that the creature could talk, King Changmin knew in his heart that this is but a poor, harmless creature and by all rights, he should let it go. However he was intrigued by the gentlest voice and prettiest eyes he had ever seen on the face as unbecoming as the beast before him and thus the young king found himself saying:

“You had trespassed the woods without permission and now we’re going to bring you back with us so that you will repay back the insult with your service. For now, you will do for the kitchen – sweep up the ashes, and do things of that sort. “

Prince Yunho has but no choice to follow them. He thought forlornly on his diminishing chance at freedom.
’what misfortune do I have? Which gods have I slighted in the past that fate had deemed me unworthy of a simple life?... and honestly, it’s not like I was doing anything bad in these woods. I was just passing through! ~ Idiot king!’ he glared – though very surreptitiously, at the young (‘and extremely handsome’, his heart whispered to him, before he squashed the thought vehemently) king before him.

The men then put him into the coach and took him home to the king’s palace. Then they showed him a little corner under the stairs – where no light of day ever peeped in, and say:
“All-Fur, this is where you may lie and sleep”.
And he was send to the kitchen, and made to fetch wood and water, to blow the fire, plucks the poultry, pick the herbs, sift the ashes, and all other kinds of dirty work.

Thus this is how Prince Yunho lived for a long time very sorrowfully.
’Ah~ Yunho.. what will now become of thee?’ he thought sadly to himself. He was feeling terribly homesick and cried himself to sleep almost every night.

One day, a feast was to be held in the king’s castle – another one of his advisors desperate attempt to gather all the princesses and ladies for the young king to choose as his queen, despite his intense protests. As he really loves dancing and quite frankly; he misses to have anyone talks to him like a normal human being instead of a freak, Prince Yunho craves to join in the feast – even for a short while, as himself. So he said to the cook:

“May I go up a little while and see what is going on? I will take care not to let anyone see me and will stand behind the door.”

And the cook said;
“Yes, you may go. But be back again in half an hour’s time, to rake out the ashes.”

Overjoyed, Yunho took his little lamp and went into his cabin. He took off the fur skin and washed the soot off his face and hands, so his beauty shone forth like the sun behind the cloud. He opened his pack and took out the suit that’s bright as the sun and as an afterthought, slip on his mother’s delicate ruby necklace for luck. He then went to the feast in high spirits.

At the ball, everyone made way for him, for nobody knew who this mysterious man is and they thought he must be no less than a king’s son. King Changmin – as like everyone else there; charmed by the newcomer’s beauty, came up to him and held out his hand for a request to dance – which nearly gave his royal advisors heart attack. He thought dazedly in his heart:
‘I never saw anyone half as beautiful as this man.’

Yunho smiled and laughed and had the best time in his life as the young king twirled him around and around while Changmin fell a little bit more in love with the man with each sound of tinkling laughter. It is to both of their regret when the dance came to an end. With a shy smile; Yunho leaned forward and kiss the young king on the cheek sweetly, turned around and ran out from the feast hall – his half an hour is almost over. By the time Changmin had recovered from his daze and look around for him, the beautiful man was gone. The guards from the castle gate were called in, but they had seen no one.

Truth was; Yunho had run to his little cabin, pulled off his suit, blackened his face and hands with soot, put on his fur-cloak and was now the All-Furs again. When he went back to the kitchen to work and began to rake the ashes, the cook said:
“Let that alone until the morning and heat the king’s soup; I should like to run up now and have a peek. Take care that you don’t let a hair fall into it, or you will run a chance of never eating again.”

As soon as the cook went away, Yunho heated the king’s soup and toasted a slice of bread first – as nicely as he ever could. While he was ladling in the soup into the bowl, unknowing to him, his necklace fell into the bottom of the soup – as he had forgotten to take it off again before.

When the feast was over, the king ordered his soup to be brought in; that it pleased him so well, he thought that he never tasted anything as good before. At the bottom of the bowl, he saw the pretty ruby necklace – as bright as can be. Wondering where it came from and remembering that this was the same necklace he saw his mysterious love wore earlier that night, he ordered the cook to be sent for.

The cook was frightened when he heard the order, and said to Yunho:
“You must have let a hair fall into the soup; if it be so, you will have a good beating.”

Then he went before the king, and the king asked him who had cooked the soup.
“I did,” answered the cook.
But the king said,
“That is not true; it was better done than you could do it. Be honest or I will have your head off”

Then he answered,
“To tell the truth I did not cook it, but All-Furs did.”

“Then let All-Furs come up,” said the king.

And when Yunho came Changmin said to him:
“Who are you?”

“I am a poor child,” said Yunho, bowing his head, “that has lost both father and mother. I am good for nothing, but to be scullion-boy, and to have boots and shoes thrown at my head.”

Changmin narrowed his eyes suspiciously. There is something about this creature that he just can’t put his finger on.. How he wishes that for once people would actually look him in the face when talking to him, however that was not the proper conduct for someone to address the king.
“But how did you get the necklace that was in the soup?” asked the king.

Absently, Yunho’s hand flew to his throat at the mention of his late mother’s necklace. When he noticed what he was doing however, he quickly faked a cough to throw off the king’s wary gaze upon him.
’Ah~ How could I be so stupid as to lost the necklace?’ Yunho berated himself. ’never mind, I’ll just deny everything then.’

No matter how much the king pestered however, Yunho would not own that he knew anything about the necklace; so the king sent him away again about his business.

A week later, there was another feast – apparently the king was quite adamant to find his mystery love – and Yunho again asked the cook to let him go up and see it as before.

“Yes,” said the cook, “but come again in half an hour, and cook the king the soup that he likes so much.”

Delighted, Yunho ran to his little cabin, washed himself quickly, and took his suit out which was silvery as the moon, and put it on – this time with a deep blue sapphire bracelet adorned his delicate wrist; and when he went in, looking like a king’s son, the king went up to him, and rejoiced at seeing the beautiful man again, and when the dance began they dance together.

After the dance was at an end Yunho managed to slip out, so slyly that the king did not see where he was gone; but he sprang into his little cabin, and made himself into All-Furs again, and went into the kitchen to cook the soup. Whilst the cook was above stairs; then it was brought to the king, who ate it, and it pleased him as well as before; so he sent for the cook, who was again forced to tell him that All-Furs had cooked it. Yunho was brought again before the king, but he still told him that he was only fit to have boots and shoes thrown at his head. Before he went out the chamber however, Changmin casually said:
“I believed that I’ve found the man of my dream. I’ve fallen for him ever since we met a week ago at the feast. I never got to know who this man is – he came out of nowhere and vanished as quickly after just one dance. You wouldn’t happen to know anything about whom I was talking about, do you?”

Yunho stopped in his track to the door and replied – without turning back to look at the young king,
“You only had one dance with him at every ball and yet you claimed that you fell for him. Strange is it not that you might like a man of that you know nothing of? Is beauty all that can capture your attention? Then you are nothing more than another shallow man, insisted on the outside rather than trying to find the true person inside. With all due respect your highness, love like that won’t last long. It will end as swift as the season passes and I feel sorry for him who has held your interest. For nothing good would come out of this and mayhaps it is better for it to be like this – you will never catch him for he will be forever hidden from your eyes.”

Stunned that someone actually dared to talk to him like that, Changmin took a step forward towards the creature before him. At that moment Yunho turned to look briefly over his shoulder towards the king and again Changmin was mesmerized by the creature’s pretty eyes. Absently, he found himself saying:
“A bracelet.. Tonight, it was a bracelet around his wrist. So delicate in my hand.. A ruby bracelet..”

Yunho didn’t say anything and just walked briskly towards the door. He needed to get away from the king. He was so sure that the king would have him beheaded for sure after his outburst just now. But strangely enough, the king didn’t even call in the guards. Yunho decided not to push his luck any longer than necessary. However; with his hand on the door’s latch, he can’t help but whispered his final parting words:
“Sapphire.. It was a sapphire bracelet, my lord..”
With that, he left as quickly as he could – heart pounding like crazy.

Changmin just smiled secretly. So, All-Furs really does know something about his love… It’s time for the final ball…
*************** ************* *************** ************* ***********
The third feast rumoured to be the largest, most festive of all the feasts known before. This time, everybody in the kingdom and beyond was invited. Yunho had contemplated not going to this feast as he was scared that in his haste, he might’ve blown his cover the last time. However, the sounds of gaily music and laughter drifted towards the kitchen from above and that called out to him. Oh, how he misses dancing so much.

’It wouldn’t hurt if I could just stay out of the king’s sight. Why, there are hundreds of other people I could dance with! he reasoned with himself.

So again, he asked the permission from the cook and went quickly to his cabin and put on his prettiest suit to date – his favourite, the one that sparkles like the stars – with a diamond ring to match. He went to the ballroom all sneaky-like and tried to blend in with the crowd. However, such a beautiful man would never fail to catch anyone’s eyes. And before long he found himself in the arms of the king again.

Changmin thought the man looks the most beautiful then even compares to the last two times before. He already ordered that the dance should be kept up a long time and for all the entrance to the ballroom to be heavily guarded. He held on tightly to the hand of the other and tried to catch the other’s eyes. When the dance finally ends, the beautiful man tried to slip away but can’t because of the tight grip of the king. He looked up in panic straight into Changmin’s eyes and with a gasp, the king momentarily slackened his held on Yunho’s hand causing the latter to be able to ran away quickly through the crowd that the king lost sight of him.

This time Yunho knew that he had stayed too long – beyond his agreed half an hour; so he had not the time to take off his fine suit, threw his fur cloak over it and in his haste, did not fully blackened himself with the soot and left one of his fingers white.

Then he ran to the kitchen and after apologizing profusely to the irate cook, he began preparing the king’s soup once more. This time he makes sure that nothing will fell into the bowl – he didn’t want the king to call him into the chamber once again.

But to Yunho’s surprised, shortly after the feast has ended, the king had summoned him to the royal chamber for the third time.
’I wonder why? I had been extra careful today.. he thought fearfully to himself.

Once All-Furs got into the room, Changmin who had been pacing back and forth impatiently while waiting quickly seized the other’s hand and drew him near – he ignored the surprised gasp came from the other’s lips and stared into the pretty brown eyes that had him intrigued from the first day itself… the same eyes that he looked into tonight on the face of his beloved. He saw the white finger and the diamond ring and knew he had found his elusive love.

Panicked, Yunho tried to struggle himself away from the strong grip and in the process managed to lost the fur-cloak, revealing the starry suit sparkled underneath it and with the hood thrown back, his beautiful form was revealed. Wide-eyed, Yunho froze on the spot – unsure what to do now that his secret was exposed.

Still holding on to the other’s hand, Changmin kindly pulled his love one towards the wash basin on the night dresser and with the wet cloth there, tenderly washed away the soot marring the other’s face and hands.

“There you are… I’ve been searching all over for you..” He whispered.

“I’ve always been here. You just didn’t see me.” Yunho said softly.

“I know.. Forgive me for that.” Changmin kissed the smaller hand in his gently, making the other blushed. “Mayhaps you could give me another chance? To get to know you better? To know the real person underneath the beauty?”

Yunho smiled as he heard his own words coming out from the king’s mouth, “I would like that.” He said shyly.

Changmin let out a relieved sigh and,
“Should we start from the beginning then? Fair sir, if you could give me the honor to let me know your name? So that I would at least know who to search for if you should decided to run away again..” The last bit was said in a disgruntled tone.

Yunho laughed gaily and replied:
“Yunho… My name is Yunho.”
************* **************** **************** *************** ***********
And that my dears, was how the snarky cynical King Changmin found his true love in the sweet Prince Yunho. According to the myth, Prince Yunho makes the king woo him for 6 straight months before he finally relents and gave in. Their wedding feast was the merriest event in years to come and the joyous couple received their own bundle of pride and joy a year later – the cutest baby boy known on land. Of course, coming from such extraordinary family would guarantee Prince Yoochun of his own set of magical adventure. With curse from fairy godmother involving spindle and what not, a certain handsome squeaky-voice aside Prince Junsu and encounter with ogres, evil mother-in-law and of course; true love.. One could safely say that there won’t be a moment of peace and quiet among the royal household and their descendents..

But as they said, that would be another story for another time.. For now, let just leave those two alone and their own happily-ever-after ending.

A/N:

-Hmm.. what do you guys think?? I'm actually on a marathon on finishing three fics by today as I'm going for a holiday tomorrow. This one finished (although extremely rushed.. sorry about that TT-TT) and I have another one that I might somehow get done by tonight. That'll be Checkmate (Padackles fic). Another one (JaeHo).. well, I've just finished first part of it.. I'll probably post a teaser and see if you guys think I should continue or not with that one. That would be a totally different genre then what I'm used to. Another SuChun fic is coming too.. a songfic. But since I only got the idea yesterday, there's no way I could finish it by tonight (especially since I haven't pack my bag yet!!! TT-TT).
-Sorry if this one's sucks.. I've always wanted to write a Fairytale!MinHo though ^^.
-c/c are <3.. thank you so much guys ^__^..

Title: Cuddle Time (I suck at giving title, ok?! TT-TT)

Pairing: hints of MinHo

Rating: PG-13

Length: Oneshot/drabble

Warning: Fluff!!! Yunho like you’ve never seen/heard before (I think.. :p). Unbeta <-- that alone should make you guys running for the hill TT-TT..

Summary: Early morning cuddle between the youngest and the leader.

A/N:
- Part of Aegyo!Yunnie verse. First part is: criztalinz.livejournal.com/23727.html (There's hint of JaeHo though nothing definite as Yunho is incredibly oblivious -.-'''). I’m in love/obsess with the thought of cute!childish!Yunho alright.. so~ yeah.. >.<..

Changmin woke up, groaning with pleasure. Something is moving on top of him and creating a luscious friction that makes his not-so-little Minnie extremely happy indeed. He opened his eyes and watch as the big lump of something wriggling and squirming under the fluffy cover on top of him.

’Alien?’ Changmin thought absentmindedly, ’I knew it.. I knew that being such a genius that I am would bring great consequences one day.. I wonder if it’ll when they suck your brain out?’ (A/N: vivid imagination much, Minnie-ah?? -.-‘’).

The wriggling mass crept higher, rubbing itself against the most delicious manner. Before Changmin could make up his mind to either suffocate the probably alien to death with his pillow or to ask it if they could possibly have some kinky early morning quickie before Changmin suffocate it his pillow (A/N: Yah! I’m trying to keep this fic PG-13 at most, Changminnie-ah… TT-TT), the head of the group’s supposedly manly leader popped out – fluffy bedhead and all.

“Changmin! You’re awake??” Yunho sounded disappointed then frowned cutely, “Something is poking me..” he muttered.

Before Yunho could dive back under the cover to look for whatever it is that’s been poking him, Changmin put his arms around the older man and hauled him up so that Yunho sprawled on top of him in between the maknae’s legs – just where Changmin always dream he would be. Yunho stiffened slightly at first and then seem to just let go. His whole body relaxed and it feels like he’s melting onto the youngest’ bigger body beneath him. Yunho placed his head near the other’s collarbone and began to fiddling idly with the buttons of the maknae’s pajamas.

Changmin hugged him tighter.

“How come you’re here, hyung? At..” Changmin glanced at the alarm clock besides the bed and raised his eyebrows, “.. 6 am?? Didn’t we have the day off today? Usually you won’t even get out of bed until 10..at least..”

Yunho burrowed his face at the crook of Changmin’s neck and sigh happily. The warmth and the sweet sleepy smell emitting from the other’s body is making him feel wonderfully languid and drowsy.

“Shh… It’s cuddling time, Minnie-yah..” Yunho rubbed and nuzzled his face against Changmin’s neck.

’Just like a cute cat’ Changmin thought fondly – one of his hand comes up to stroked through the older man’s hair gently while the other is still securely wrapped around Yunho’s waist. Yunho start to wriggle and squirm around again to get more comfortable – one of his knees brushed against Changmin’s little problem down south. Hearing a moan coming from the man beneath him, Yunho raised his head slightly to look down at the youngest’ face questioningly.

“Am I too heavy, Min? Do you want me to move?” He pouted a little at the thought of losing his ‘Changmin’ pillow-cum-heater.

“No..no.. You don’t have to move,” Changmin cradled the back of Yunho’s head and pull him gently back onto his shoulder. “Just stop squirming so much. You can’t possibly be too heavy, hyung. Even Yoochun weight more than you do these days. You need to eat more..”

“Like you??” The leader asked teasingly. His voice muffled against the other’s neck. “Min-ah.. If everyone eats like you do, DBSK would go bankrupt in no time. Junsu would have to sell all his video games, Yoochun have to take part time job as an escort to rich, old ladies and Jae would have to quit singing because he have to cook for us 24/7..”

Changmin chuckled quietly at the mental image that the leader brought.
“While I’m sure Yoochun-hyung wouldn’t mind becoming a male escort in the least, Junsu would rather starve then to part with any of his beloved games.. And Jae-hyung would kill us for even thinking that he’s going to slave away in the kitchen just to feed us..” He began stroking Yunho’s back lazily. “But seriously hyung, you need to take better care of yourself. Here, I can even feel your ribs,” he skimmed his hand alongside Yunho’s torso, “And honestly.. I miss your moobs.” He flicked gently at the older man’s nipple through the thin t-shirt (A/N: Min!! remember!! PG-13!! *got headbutt from the hard-headed maknae* @.@ *swirly eyes*).

Yunho squirmed away slightly, giggling.
“Don’t.. That tickles.. Well, you and Jaejoongie might miss them. But I don’t. Both of you likes to squeeze them too much.. There were not toys, you know..”

“No? But they’re so soft and squishable..” Changmin teased the leader, laughing when he saw the other puffed out his cheeks cutely in indignant.

After the light teasing, both of them settled comfortably – warm and snug underneath the thick cover in the cold early morning air that’s blowing gently from the slightly opened window. Yunho has been yawning non-stop for couple of minutes now. Waking up extra early on their day off just to snuggle with the maknae had taken its toll on him.

“Hyung, where is Jae-hyung? Don’t you guys usually cuddle together?” Try as he might, Changmin couldn’t quite disguise the bitter note lacing his words. Fortunately Yunho is just too sleepy to take any notice.

Changmin’s quiet voice jerked Yunho back. He had nod off without realizing it. Yawning, he shrugged at the question.

“I dunno.. He didn’t come back last night from his friend’s house..”

Silent.
Yunho could feel himself drifting off again..

“Hyung, you like cuddling with me, don’t you? Much better than being with Jae-hyung?”

“Hmm..??” Yunho mumbled, feeling the edges of sleep start to steal over him. “Me likie.. Changminnie very comfy..” He patted the chest underneath him clumsily.

Soft chuckle.
A whisper:

“..Can I keep you?”

Barely awake, Yunho hummed in acknowledgement,
“…ok..”

Grinning widely, Changmin looked down at the now sleeping man sprawled across his chest. Mouth already slightly opened, it’s only the matter of time before Yunho start drooling all over him. He kissed the top of the leader’s head affectionately and hold him closer. Changmin knew that he shouldn’t take Yunho’s agreement seriously.. Heck, the guy was barely awake enough to understand what Changmin had been asking.
But he doesn’t care. As long as there’s still hope, no way is he going to give up in claiming the older man for himself.

’At least it’s a start’ Changmin thought happily before snuggling down further underneath the comforter – making sure carefully that Yunho is fully covered – and joining the older man into the dream world..

I WOOOONNNNN!!!!!!! \(v)/

woohhoooo...!! I won the Nokia N93i that i was dying to have in ebay!! *flail around excitedly* XXDDD..
I know that it wasn't the latest model but I really really want that particular phone.. and now.. it's gonna be mine!!!! muahahaha *grin maniacally*..
Jealous?? haha I bet you are!!! *am talking to empty air in front of her =.=''*

Right.. on to the more serious business, about Checkmate thingie.. please give me a couple of days to figure out what I'm going to do next. I already halfway planned to f-lock my fics anyway.. the question is whether I'm going to just f-lock Checkmate or am I going to private it altogether. Currently all the chapters are in private mode. So even if you're on my f-list, you won't be able to read it just yet.

I'm lazy. Plain and simple.. The idea of having to find 'Friends Only' banner and then f-locking everything just hurts my head (and I only has 96 journal entries!! TT-TT).. At first I thought of taking my own sweet time about it.. Even thinking that any new fics/chaps would remain open to public for at least a week before I f-lock it (coz I dont think it's fair to force anyone to add me just because they want to read the fics, right?).. But now I'm not so sure what to do. And I also have to f-lock my backup IJ account even though I didn't want to.

Fanfics are something that are meant to be shared with everyone who loves writing/reading IMHO.. What right do I have to force people to ask/request/beg to be added on my f-list and vice versa? But I guess if it has to be done.. *shrugged*

Anyone has any suggestion where I can find some nice 'Friends Only' banner?? ^__^

EDIT: to babyreaper, you send me a pm about this but I can't seem to give you a reply as you've set your message mode to privacy.. here's my reply if you saw this post:

"er.. yeah.. if you read two of my latest journal entries, you'll find out why I had just private locked everything..

For now, please go to: http://criztalinz.insanejournal.com/30080.html (for interlude II) and: http://criztalinz.insanejournal.com/30447.html (chapter 9).

I haven't start to lock my backup account yet.. so you can access all chapters there for now."

ANNOUNCEMENT: Regarding 'Checkmate' fic

2009-09-06T12:13:49Z

Right... so it has come to my attention HERE (kinda hard not to as she/he posted it to all three comm and since I received emails alert on all comments..so.. yeah.. -.-'') that someone thought I've committed a big sin in ripping off Ms Garwood's story.

Although I thought I specifically reminded you guys again and again that NONE of the credit should go to me.. at all.. and encourage all of you to go and actually buy/read her books + I also specifically mentioned (on every single chapter actually) that the story didn't belong to me and I'm merely tweaking around a LITTLE BIT to make it more 'slash-friendly' (e.g: inserting Tom/Mike), I could however see her/his point. Thing is, as I know that some/most of you have read the book before and yet no one ever said anything so I thought that you guys are alright with it.

Anyway, being the reasonable person I am (lol.. a little bit of self-praise never hurt anyone, right ;p), I've decided to take down.. well.. actually 'private'ing <-- is that even a word?? o.O.. all the chapters and discontinue the fic (I had half a mind to actually keep on writing but it would only be more of my personal pleasure).

Ah~ a pity too.. I'm so fond of J2 in this and am so looking forward to write more cute Tom/Mike scenes TT-TT.. I shall miss all of you guys *virtual group hug*....

I dunno... any thoughts on the matter?? I'm having a headache currently and I thought this is the best course of action at the moment.. Any other suggestions are more than welcomed..

Anyway, to those who friended me because of the fic, feel free to de-friend me TT-TT.. Thank you for all the nice words of support and lovely comments all this while. Thank you for sticking with me even after a mega-long hiatus.. I'm sorry if you guys have misunderstood in any way that I intended to rip off Ms. Garwood of her rightful credit/story/idea..etc.. Hope no one's angry at me..

Cheers;

Fic: My Dear Leader-sshi (DBSK)

2009-08-27T14:10:55Z

Title: My Dear Leader-sshi

Pairing: hints of JaeHo

Rating: PG-13

Length: Oneshot

Warning: CRACK!!! Yunho like you’ve never seen/heard before (I think.. :p). Unbeta <-- that alone should make you guys running for the hill TT-TT.. The timeline in here is all over the place.

Summary: Aegyo!Yunnie.. That’s kind of self-explanatory isn’t it??

A/N: I was so excited and happy coz both AADBSK 2 and 3 DVDs arrived on the same day.. The AADBSK 3 (I pre-ordered and paid for this BEFORE I got to know about Cassies boycott thingie) even has the photobook (which is gorgeous!! My friend skimmed through it and fell in love with Yunho >.<..) and the poster and the cute bag XDD.. Anyhoo, that was how this fic came to life. Happy!Me = Cute!Yunho fic ;p. Anyway hopefully y’all like this and sorry if you think the fic is too weird *skipping off to ogle at the pretty pretty photobook*

Fans often wonder ‘who is the most spoiled and pampered members among DBSK group’. One might have guessed it’ll be Changmin. Being the maknae, wasn’t it an apparent answer? How can one forget the sweet boy who kissed the cat in their first MV and how adorable Changmin is with his obsession with food.. Yes, the youngest seems the most likely to be spoiled and babied by his hyungs. But wait! How about the angelic Xiah Junsu? Isn’t he the more obvious choice? With his sweet face and joyous ‘eu kyang kyang’ laugh which never fails to bring smile to anyone’s face coupled with the cutest duck-butt people love to tease him about but they’re actually jealous of, one cannot deny that it will be hard not to just give the cute singer whatever his heart could have possibly desire just to get one smile from him.

No… no.. deny another fan. Has everyone forgotten about the pretty boy Yoochun? – The most sensitive and the official crybaby of the group. You have to be a monster to even think of denying Yoochun anything – bless his sweet, gentle soul. The husky, sexy-as-fuck voice could melt even the hardest heart!

Hah! scoffed another one, You’re all wrong! The answer was so obvious that I’m surprised none of you ever thought about it first!.
Kim Jaejoong.
Whose ethereal beauty put even angels to shame, whose voice is like fresh breath of spring’s air after the raging storm, whose mere presence commands attention and worshiping from people around him (A/N: needless to say that this particular fan is an avid fan of Jaejoong >.<). Is there any other person aside from this heavenly creature more deserve the title ‘well-love’ in DBSK??

Er… aren’t we forgetting someone? How about Yunho-sshi? piped in one fan timidly.

Yunho? You mean the manly. Tough-as-nails leader, Jung Yunho?? Are you an idiot? Yunho is the manliest among men! He’s not the cute type. He’ll be the one to do all the pampering, most likely!” scoffed others.

Of course… Little do they know….

Lee Soo Man / Manager-hyung

The four men in the meeting room observed each other silently. Two of the eldest looked at the beautiful blond young man who’s currently sprawled leisurely on the plush chair behind his younger friend, without a care in the world. He seemed oblivious to the twin glares from the two older men, preferring instead trying to distract the youngest with his newly purchased bracelet – which seemed to be working as the other man look at the shiny silver chain in delight and start playing idly with the three bells and couple of Bambi-shaped charms attached to it. The beautiful man smiled fondly at his younger friend.

The eldest men of them four cleared his throat pointedly towards the blond.
“Jaejoong-sshi, how nice of you to drop by here. Don’t you have any other place to go – like a club perhaps?”

Jaejoong lifted up his eyes from observing Yunho – who completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere around him and is still admiring the shiny bracelet Jaejoong bought for him – and looked lazily towards the two elderly men who’s sitting at the end of the long table. He smirked.

“Hmm? Oh no, in fact I’m quite free at the moment. I thought it’ll do me and the group good if I were to get involve once in a while in these meetings you always have with Yunho. After all, if for the sake of DBSK’ s future, I’m sure you prefer that I’ll be more interested, isn’t that right Mr. President and manager-hyung?” Jaejoong said sarcastically.

The two men in questioned shifted around their chairs uneasily. Lee Soo Man tries again,
“Oh you don’t have to worry about that, Jaejoong-sshi. We know how dedicated you are to the group success. You don’t have to come all the way here to sit through the meeting. It could go on for quite some time plus it’s quite boring too,” He laughed awkwardly, “I’m sure Yunho-yah..” The president stumbled over his words when the cold beauty in front of him scowled darkly at the endearing way he said the group leader’s name. “Er.. I mean Yunho-sshi wouldn’t want you to be bored either, right Yunho-sshi?”

The still oblivious leader looked up from the pretty bracelet at the sound of his name being mentioned. He blinked cutely at the three expectant faces looking back at him. Biting his lower lip lightly, he tried to remember what they’re talking about.. oh yes!

“I like Jaejoongie.. I don’t mind him being here at all!” He chirped brightly and happily. The three other men could literally feel their hearts melt facing such cuteness. If this is an anime, you could probably see their eyes turned to heart-shaped.. =.=’’’.

Shaking himself out of daze, Jaejoong clapped his hand and said loudly,
“Alrighty then, lets get this meeting started. What is it that you need to see us about?”

“Who said we want to see you? We only want to see our cutie Yunho..” Their manager muttered quietly under his breath. No way is he going to say it out loud in front of Jaejoong. Everyone knew how protective the beauty is of his younger friend… and it’s also a known fact that the deceivably delicate looking man has one mean left hook TT-TT..

Jaejoong raised one eyebrow and look sharply at their manager, “Did you say something, hyung?”

“Er..no?.. eheh..” phew..

“Alright gentlemen.. Lets just get going so that the sooner we can leave this place.” The president said in a disgruntled tone. Honestly, if he’s not the so-called fearsome Lee Soo Man, one might have even say that he’s currently pouting.
“The reason we called you guys is just to inform you of the destination of your next photobook. After much success with ‘Prince of Prague’, we thought it’ll be a good idea to do another photobook special edition. Now, we’ve narrowed down to a couple of countries, it would either be in Romania or Ghana, Africa. As cost-wise, taking into consideration of the accommodation and travel expenses.. Yunho?.. are you alright? You look a bit down?..” The eldest asked in concern when he saw the younger man downcast expression.
Oh no! Yunho is upset.. why?! Who had dare to hurt him? Ah~ he even looks cute when he’s all sad..

The pouting leader looked up at the company’s president, cheeks all puffed out.
“Er… It’s nothing.. but I was hoping that we could go to Paris, France this time. I’ve always want to go there..” Tilted head, eyes blinking cutely, plump lower lip slightly jutting out pleadingly..”Can’t we?? Please, Mr President?”

Lee Soo Man and manager-hyung promptly lost their train of thoughts… let alone trying to find any excuse or reasoning to Yunho’s request. Jaejoong dropped his jaw in amazement. He knew the group’s leader has his cute moments – in fact if he’s to be completely honest, Yunho has more cuteness in him than the manliness he showed to public - but this… heck! this is better than what I always do.. he thought, a bit miffed =.=’’’… now I understand why these two old lechers always ask for meetings with him. Yah! If you guys think I would just leave him to be alone with any of you ever again after this, you had another thing coming.. Yunnie is mine. Whether he knows it or not TT-TT.

“Um.. Yunho-sshi.. o..of course we could go to Paris.. ahaha.. I was just kidding around before…” Lee Soo Man said, still in trance in the face of the cutest, sweetest person in the world. Their manager just nodded furiously – both eager to please the sweet one before them.

Eyes sparkling brightly opened wide in excitement, happy laughter rings out like the sound of silver bells on how summer day, Yunho clapped his hands in delight while bouncing around in his seat excitedly.
“Really?? Really.. really?? Thank you!! Waaahhh!! I’m so happy!! I want to hug someone now! ^__^.” He jumped up from his seat – This is the moment the other two elders been waiting for. Whenever Yunho is extremely happy and hyper, he tends to just glomp on whoever in front of him and sometimes one could even sneak in a kiss or two on those cute cheeks. The two men stood up quickly in anticipation – glaring daggers at each other: Both are more than ready to shove the other one out of the way.. All fair’s in love and war! (A/N: honestly, is it really necessary to be all serious like this, guys?? -.-‘’’).

“Waaaii Jaejoongie!! Did you hear that?? We’re going to Paris! How cool is that?! XXDDDD”

The two elders gaped at the scene before them. Jaejoong, (damn that kid! cries manager-hyung in his heart TT-TT) had smoothly inserted himself between Yunho and the other two men, thus making him the target of Yunho’s glomp. He patted the excited leader’s back affectionately then grabbed his hand and start dragging the youngest towards the door.

“That’s great Yunnie. Now let us go home and break the news to the kids, ok?” Turning back to the still-in-shock elders, he smirked. “We’ll be off now, Mr President.. hyung.. Thanks for the lovely surprise and have a good evening!” waving goodbye brightly, Jaejoong dragged away Yunho – who had started singing ‘Oh~ Champs elysees…’ (A/N: -.-‘’’).

Lee Soo Man/Manager-hyung: “…… Damn you to hell and back, Kim Jaejoong!! TT-TT”

Outside the building, twin cries of frustration could be heard echoing in the dark. Startled, Yunho gripped Jaejoong’s arm tightly.
“Huh? What was that Jae??”

Jaejoong smiled evilly.. “Nothing Yunhoyah.. just the sound of sweet victory..”

******* ******** ******** ******* ******* ********* ******* ****** ********
Donghae

Up to this day people still wonders if Donghae is either brave or extremely dense and stupid. If you ask the man himself, he will tell you it was a little mix of both plus a huge dose of infatuation. It wasn’t he can’t sense the glare.. heck, he could be dead a thousand times over and could still feel the intense, scary deadly glare behind his back!

“But it wasn’t my fault!” he would protest vehemently. Honestly, it wasn’t like he ask for it..

“yeah, but you didn’t say no either..” one pointed out, “ in fact, you were grinning so widely that the director wondered if you were high or something”.

Donghae pouted,
“Well yeah.. wouldn’t you too if you’re in the same situation as I was??”

“…. Good point..” -.-’’’

Because seriously, how could one expect Donghae to refused when a hyper, cute-as-puppy Yunho ran up happily towards him, shouting:
“Hyuuuuunnnnggggg~….. Piggyback! Piggyback~!!” glomp

……………
………
…

Sorry Jaejoong-ah.. Death glare or not, to have that slim body plastered itself all over his back.. that was Donghae’s sliver piece of heaven ^__^..

HEY!3x Hosts (Matsumoto/Hamada)

The comedy duo Downtown looks at the show’s script. It was 40 minutes before airing time and the two hosts are currently at the backstage with some of their guests. Suddenly a loud squeal from one of their female guests attracts the duo’s attention.

“Omigod.. There they are.. Tohoshinki! Wow.. they’re so cute!!” she gushed to her fellow celebrity.

Matsumoto and Hamada raised their eyebrows and turned to look at the infamous Korean band that had miraculously taken Japan by storm. Expecting to see a group of handsome but arrogant and haughty looking young men who acts like they owned the place, what met their eyes instead was a surprising scene.

Oh don’t get them wrong, the five youngsters are exceptionally good-looking - almost too beautiful to be from this earth Hamada thought as he looks at the blond one. But neither one of them behave like they’re big-shot celebrities at all!

The tallest of them all picked up one of the member and start spinning him around and round on his shoulder. Two other members were laughing at them while the blond one is reading a what appeared to be ‘Japanese cuisine 101 – whip yourself full course Japanese feast in 30 minustes’ cookbook. The one being spin starts squealing and squirming around excitedly..

“Jae!! Mitte mitte!! I’m a helicopter.. whee!! Faster Changmin.. faster! \(*o*)/”

The beautiful blond looked up from his book to frown slightly at the sight before him.
“Yunho, you’ll make yourself sick if you continue.. You know full well that you have weak stomach. Changmin, let him down now.. And you two,” he pointed at the two still giggling boys beside him, “stop encouraging them. Honestly guys.. this would be the first time we’re going to appear on this show.. Aren’t any of you nervous at all?”

Yunho who had been let down back on his feet, grin dizzily..
“I’m not! I’m not nervous because Jae’s here.. ^__^”

Jaejoong sputtered at the honest answer said so casually in public – by the leader, no less..
“Yunnie, don’t say stuffs like that out loud. People could get the wrong idea.. Aish..”

Even from the distance, Matsumoto and Hamada could see the reprimanded younger man is pouting. Both of them look at each other in amazement. This is the leader of Tohoshinki? The man in question then realised he was being stared at and turned to looked at the two hosts. Tilting his head a bit – as if confused as to who exactly these two are and why do they seem familiar. Understanding dawned on that sweet face and he grinned widely at the two dumbfounded men. Flushed face; cheeks still has traces of baby fat on them – just begging to be pinch at, crossbow pink lips grinning cheekily. The leader is just a model picture of cuteness overload.

Matsumoto turned to Hamada and said:
“Kawaii ne? Tohoshinki no leader ka?? Hmm…. Don’t know why but I feel like teasing him a little..”

Hamada looked at his co-host in surprise..
“Eh? You too?? I thought I am the only one who’s like that. Seriously though, the cuter the person is, the more fun teasing them..”

Matsumoto laughed.
“Of course! The confused – hurt look on their faces when they tried to smile and just brush it away is the best.. They’ll become more cuter somehow. So, we agreed then? New victim for hey!3x..?”

Hamada nodded.
“Yep. I’m in.. Yunho-kun, you better get yourself prepare”

Changmin

The youngest stared at the small device in his hand..

No…no… this can’t be happening! he thought frantically. Maybe I should try to switch it on again

But no matter how much he prodded, stroked, pressed, pleaded, cursed.. heck, even prayed, the device stayed silent. The blank screen flickered faintly as if mocking the young man for his failure. Changmin could literally feel himself hyperventilating with each desperate press of the button.

“NOOOOOO!!!!!”

The gut-wrenching scream echoed throughout the apartment, bringing the other four members running to the youngest’s room. Although among the four, one of them clearly intentionally lagging behind – trying to hide himself behind others’ backs.

The four of them peeked inside the room to see the youngest and also the tallest member kneeling despondently on the floor in the middle of the room.

“Wha… What happened, Changmin-ah??” Jaejoong gasped for breath, damn, I need to hit the gym again if just running from the kitchen to here makes me gasping like this TT-TT.

Suddenly Changmin jumped to his feet and turned to stomp towards his hyungs who are standing at the door. All four of them instinctively took a step back at the dark look on the maknae’s face. He looks like a demon – an extremely handsome one of course but a demon nonetheless – coming down to earth to unleash his rage.

“Who had dared touched my iPod?!! Not only that, all 7629 songs in it had been deleted too!! Tell me who was it, right now!!”

Changmin shot his right hand forward, gripped tightly in it is one bright red Apple iPod – one of his most prized possession. Before anyone could say anything however, he looked at Junsu with murderous look in his eyes. The dolphin squeaked nervously,

“Uh.. Changmin?”

“It was you, wasn’t it Junsu-hyung?! You want to get revenge for the time when I used your credit card to order special videos.. This is too much!”

Junso blinked blankly, he had been confused when he saw the name ‘ Hung Wankestein’, ‘Moulin Splooge’ and ‘Tits of Fury’ on his bill.

Changmin moves on, turning his attention to the petrified Yoochun..
“Or was it you, Yoochun-hyung?! I know that I’ve spilled pasta sauce all over your music sheets then threw them away so you won’t know! But that doesn’t give you the right to do this to me!!”

Yoochun who by now looks annoyed starts to speak up:
“Wait..Wha..? That was you?! Why you little..”

Of course Changmin just ignored him and barrelled on:
“Or perhaps , Jae-hyung was the culprit?! It was to get back at me because I swapped all labels on the condiments bottles and blame it on Junsu, wasn’t it?! How could you Hyung?! This was the cruelest thing ever!..”

Jaejoong’s jaw dropped in indignant. So Changmin was the one’s responsible for the whole two days – it took Jaejoong that long to figure out what went wrong – they have sweet-tasting kimchi jjigae and salty coffee. And he had blamed Junsu for it! Mian Junsu-ah.. hyung would make your favourite dishes for dinner tonight..

“Yah! Do you have any idea how long I took to rearrange the labels back!”

“Minnie-ah.. no wonder the bank looked at me funny when I went to pay the bill..”

“You little shit! Let me at him, Susu-ah!! Those were some of my best composed songs..!”

“Hello~! Can we focus on ‘who messed up Changmin’s iPod’ first instead of your petty problems?!”

“Petty?? YAH!”

“….it was me…” The small voice piped in the middle of the chaos.
The other four turned as one to look at the tall, up-til-then silent leader fidgeting by the door.

Yunho fidgets some more. Biting his lower lip lightly, he looks up pleadingly at the youngest.
“I’m so sorry Min-ah.. I didn’t mean to. Honest! I just want to transfer some songs into my laptop and then.. I don’t know what I did.. suddenly everything went ‘poof!’”

The four stooges blinked at the cute way their manly leader puffed out his cheeks..

“I want to tell you.. But I’m scared you’ll be angry.. I’ll pay back for it, promise! If you want, you can even take all my coins collection..” Lips trembling, Yunho choked out the last part.. His precious coins! He’s been collecting them for more than 5 years now TT-TT..

Jaejoong, Junsu and Yoochun looked expectantly at the youngest – Though Jaejoong’s look are closer to You make him cry, I’ll chopped you to pieces glare (A/N: -.-’’’).
Changmin sighed dejectedly. If it’s anyone else, he would have no problem ‘one-touch’ing them.. but this is Yunho – the one that had been unofficially dubbed as the most adorable, clumsy and cute leader in history of bands. Heck, he’ll trip over air if left unguarded. It’s no wonder he could delete the entire songs playlist when all he has to do is just copy and paste them to his computer.

Changmin looked at the ‘kicked-puppy’ face in front of him and smile ruefully. Nope, no way he’s able to be mad at his adorable leader-sshi. He stepped forward and engulfed the older man in a big hug.

“There..there.. hyung. I’m not mad anymore. You could keep your precious coins. I don’t need them.”

“Eh? Really..??” Yunho's voice is muffled by the other’s shirt.

“Hmm.. really..really. Aside from the fact that Jae-hyung would kill me if I make you sad,” Changmin ignored the choking sound from behind them while hugging Yunho tighter when the older man tried to peek over his shoulder to see who made the noise, “I don’t think I could stay angry at this face for more than few minutes.”

Changmin then squeezed Yunho’s face between his palms, causing the man’s lips to pucker up like a fish. He laughed at the funny face and gave a light peck on the pouting lips. Choking sound again – this time a bit louder indicating the owner might either dying or is trying to keep himself from strangling the maknae in front of him.

“Ehem… this is all very touching and all.. While we’re glad that you found your culprit and forgave him, I think we still have some stuffs to discuss, right Changminnie?” the slow drawl of seemingly bored voice distract the youngest from further molesting his group’s leader. Changmin turned to look at his other three hyungs – all with dark expressions on their faces..

uh..oh.. he thought fearfully. Damn me and my big mouth TT-TT

******* ******** ********* ********* *********** ******** ******** *******
Junsu

“Please Junsu?.. Please…??”

“But hyung.. Jae-hyung would kill me if I let you do that. The last time you did this, none of us could sleep a wink that night.”

“He doesn’t have to know about this.. and I’m all better now.. Please?”

“I already planned on ‘game date’ with Junho this evening.. There’s only a couple levels left before we’ll meet the Big Boss in the game.. Why do you want to watch it so much anyway? I thought you’re scared of ghost, hyung?”

“Who said I was scared? I just prefer not to meet them, that’s all.. And we have to see the film because according to the reviews, everyone should go and watch it or else you’ll miss out!”

“Miss out on what exactly?”

“…. I don’t know. But whatever it is, I don’t want to miss it!”

“……..” -.-’’’

“Please Junsu?? Pretty please with chocolate covered Yoochun on top??” huge, pleading, cute-puppy’s eyes.

Junsu blushed bright red, “O..okay..”

“Yay!! ” \(*o*)/

~.~.~.~.~
That night, Yunho insisted everyone sleeping in the living room as according to him:
What if one of us got possessed and no one realised about it and then he starts killing us one by one violently before committed suicide at the end?!! (A/N: vivid imagination much, Yun-chan? O.O).

That by itself won’t be a problem as it is nice to cuddle up to one another once in a while. The problem was when Yunho kept waking them up with his screaming when he was having nightmares.

“I’m going to kill you, Junsu..” Jaejoong hissed while trying to calm Yunho down for the third time that night, “What were you thinking, bringing him to see the horror movie when you knew he’ll have nightmares after watching one of those trashes”

“B..but.. he insisted..” Junsu tried to defend himself, “He said please.. You know I can’t refused him when he said please..” He trailed off when Jaejoong glared at him.

“Don’t worry Susu-ah~.. I understand what you meant. Nobody could say ‘No’ to Yunho-hyung when he turns that cute face on you..” Yoochun patted the other’s back sympathetically. Changmin didn’t say anything, just silently observing his oldest hyung rocking the leader back and forth in his arms comfortingly.

“Shh..shh Yunnie.. I promise it was just a nightmare. No.. Changmin’s not about to cook all of us into DBSK jjigae in a big pot.. I swear..”

Yeah hyung.. I wouldn’t eat any of you.. Well, maybe Junsu –hyung if I’m desperate enough. I bet he tastes like chicken with all that plumpness..” licked lips.

Jaejoong threw a deathly glare at the maknae when Yunho starts wailing again, this time accompanied by Junsu’s indignant dolphin squeal. Changmin just look back innocently.

“What?? I was just trying to help..”

Yoochun

Park Yoochun is a pretty laidback, easygoing guy if he does say so himself. Not much could make him lose his temper or jar his self-confidence. It’s been said that if he gets any more laidback, he might as well be dead..

Nope, there’s not much that can annoys Yoochun… except for one thing. His main pet peeve – one that would turn the usually peaceful, gentle young composer into a raging, angry grizzly bear: His work room is his own.. Off-limits to anyone especially when he’s in one of his creative moods where he would lock himself in there for days. Coming out only for bathroom breaks and Jaejoong had long learnt that it’s futile to even call him out meals. Just leave the tray by the door and hopes for the best.

Which is why Jaejoong has been standing outside the work room for the past 10 minutes just staring at the white door – debating with himself whether to knock or not. He didn’t want to disturb Yoochun but Jaejoong been searching for Yunho and no one else has seen nor heard the leader. If he didn’t know where the younger man’s whereabouts for more than 3 hours, he tends to get worried. God knows what kind of trouble his accident-prone sweetheart could get himself into if being left alone.

Steeling himself, Jaejoong raised his hand to knock.. just a quick question and I’ll leave him alone he thought. But before his knuckles could meet the hard wood, the door opened. Yoochun stood before him, raising his eyebrows at the older man’s raised hand.

Flushing, Jaejoong opened his mouth to ask the younger man if he had seen the leader. Before he could do so, Yoochun lightly placed one finger o his lips indicating for Jaejoong to keep quiet. He then cocked his head into the room. Curious, Jaejoong took a couple of steps forward into the brightly lit room only to stop at the sweetest sight in front of him.

There, on the old sofa at the far corner lay Yunho, sleeping soudly. One hand tucked under his face and another is clutching his Bambi plushie tightly to himself. The afternoon sun, filtered by the lacy white curtain shone softly on his face. Gentle breeze from the open window blew softly on few strands of caramel brown hair across his face. He looks like an angel doll – all peaceful and cute.

“He came in couple of hours ago saying that he wants to hear me play. I played a couple of songs for him and the next thing I knew he had fallen asleep..” Yoochun whispered softly at Jaejoong. Both men just stare at the angelic picture in front of them.

“You don’t mind? Do you want me to carry him back to his room?” Jaejoong whispered back, eyes still on the sleeping man.

“Naahh.. just let him sleep in here. It doesn’t bother me. Looking at that sweet sleeping face gives me plenty of inspiration actually” Yoochun chuckled softly.

“He’s precious, isn’t he?” Jaejoong smiled gently, “Although sometimes I think we spoil him too much. Even Changmin indulges whatever his Yunho-hyung wants most of the time.”

“He deserves it. He never realises it but we’ll do anything for him.. It drives me crazy sometimes that he never fully knows that”

Jaejoong patted Yoochun’s shoulder, “Well then, it’s up to us to show him again and again how much we love him until he just accepts the fact, right?”

“Stupid, adorable, sweet, gentle, infuriating leader-sshi..”

Quiet laugh, “In other words, he’s ours..”

“yes.. Ours..”

******** ******** ******* ******** ********* ******** ******** ******** *****
Jaejoong (because even the most pampered sometimes needs some scolding)

“Oh my God! Jung Yunho!! Where the hell do you think you’re going?!! Get your ass back on the bed now!”

“No! I don’t want to!! And you can’t make me. So there!!”

Yunho.. You’ll do as I say or help me God!”

No! No! No!!!” Each ‘no’ were accompanied by stomps of feet.. The other three members blinked at the childish display of their manly leader.

“Do you want me to spank you?!”

Gasp. “You wouldn’t..”

“Try me..” Jaejoong crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows pointedly at the younger man.

Yunho gulped nervously when he looks at Jaejoong’s stern expression. He knew the older man would have no qualm in carrying out his threat if Yunho keeps being stubborn. He pouted. Maybe he should change his tactics in trying to persuade Jaejoong to gives in?

“Jae… listen… You don’t understand. I need to go there. Today’s the last day they are going to be in town.. And I have free ticket that Jinnie-hyung gave me. If I don’t use it by today, then there’ll be no chance to use it at all.. forever!” he shouted dramatically.

“Yunho.. you have high fever. Which part of that didn’t you understand?! There’s no way in hell am I letting you go off on your own merry way just to see some dumb circus!”

“They’re not dumb! They’re Royal London Circus!! They’re like the best circus ever! I promise I’m all fine now… Fever’s all gone..” Of course that claim would be a bit more believable if Yunho hadn’t sneezed three times in a row at the end of his tirade and if he didn’t look like it took all his strength just to remain upright.

Jaejoong shook his head at the stubborn leader and said matter-of-factly,
“Well, I said no and that’s final.. Now, go back to your room and lie down. I’ll go and make you some chicken soup. You need to take your medicine after that…”

While Jaejoong was talking, Yunho decided he had enough and just try to make the run for it towards the door. The older man cursed loudly, ran after the other and tackled him to the floor.

“Yah! I’m done trying to talk some sense into you. You want me to be rough? Fine.” With that, he hoisted the younger man onto his shoulder in a fireman’s carry and carried him off to the bedrrom, all with Yunho struggling to get free and shouting at the lead singer.

“Let me go! Jaejoong, let me down this instant! Changmin, Yoochun, Junsu!! Help me~!”

However the three dongseangs just watched everything from behind the couch, wide-eyed. Though they felt sorry for Yunho, there’s no way they going to go against Jaejoong. The oldest boy is way scarier that their leader himself!

What happened after that is best left untold. Let just say it involved lots of threats, profanities, crying and a shout or two. In other words, temper tantrum at its finest.. After a couple of hours and 15 minutes since they heard any sound coming from inside the bedroom; Changmin, Junsu and Yoochun decided to investigate what has happened lest the two eldest had finally killed each other. Quietly, the three of them crept slowly to the room and peeked inside.

Jaejoong is sitting halfway up on the bed, leaning against the headboard and stroking Yunho’s hair softly while the leader is halfway draped across Jaejoon’s torso and appeared to be fast asleep. The eldest noticed his three dongseangs at the the door peering in cautiously. He smiled and gestured to them to come in. The three shuffled in and look down at their two hyungs.

“Is everything okay now, Jae-hyung?” Junsu asked quietly.

Jae smiled gently, “Yeah… he’s all tuckered out because of his fever, poor guy..” He wiped at the faint tear track on Yunho’s cheek tenderly, “He really wants to go to the circus, didn’t he?”

“You tell me.. honestly, I didn’t even know Yunho-hyung could throw a temper tantrum like that..” Changmin shook his head in amazement as he remembered what had just transpired. Sometimes he wonders if he really is the youngest one among them. Yunho seems to be the more likely candidate -.-’’’.

“It’s so hard to have day off and when we finally has some free time, he had to have the fever. He must have felt frustrated. Mian hae Yunhoyah.. I can’t let you go and make yourself sicker..” Jaejoong dropped one small kiss on top of the still sleeping man’s head.

“Don’t worry hyung.. Next time lets treat Yunho-hyung to an entertainment park. I knew He’s been wanting desperately to go to Tokyo Disneyland. We can take one day off next time we go to Japan.” Yoochun reassured the older man.

Jaejoong laughed, “Yeah, why not. He’ll love that for sure.. Especially if he didn’t have to pay for anything. Ah~ we’re so lucky to have such nice dongseangs like you guys. You spoil your Yunho-hyung too much though.”

“Yeah right.. Like you never spoil him at all, huh? In fact compares to all of us combined, you’re the one who spoils him the most. Always making his favourite dishes, taking care of him, makes sure he never been taken advantage of, tucks him in at night and fussing over him..” Changmin rattles on, making Jaejoong flushed at his observation.

“Yah! I did all those to all of you guys too. Not just Yunho..”

“Yes, but you does it more often with him. I’m not sure if you notice this but your eyes almost always follow him wherever Yunho-hyung goes. It’s like you’re keeping track on him and making sure he’s okay.” Yoochun smirked.

“But that’s okay hyung.. We approve of you guys’ relationship. Don’t worry! We’re behind you 100% in your pursuing Yunho-hyung. Jae-hyung hwaiting!!” Junsu squealed excitedly, causing others to shush him lest he wakes Yunho up.

“We’ll be off now, Jae-hyung. Don’t worry about dinner. Junsu-hyung are taking us out to eat. We’ll bring something back for you guys. Take care of Yunho-hyung! Bye now~.” Changmin dragged his other two hyungs away to give the two eldest members some privacy – Junsu protesting all the way: since when did I say I’ll treat you guys for dinner?!.

Jaejoong laughed softly and bend down to whisper softly at Yunho’s ear,
“You heard them Yunnie.. Get better soon ok, baby..”

The sleeping man – oblivious to everything – just sniffles lightly and snuggled closer to the warmth surrounding him. Jaejoong smiled fondly and just hugged him tighter..

~finis~

A/N:

-For once I actually don't care if the fic really sucks coz I really really like it :). I love aegyo!Yunho.. I always think Yunho is adorable anyway XXDDD.. When he's all hyper and happy I just want to hug and keep him in my pocket :p.
- I wonder why I always end my JaeHo fic with both of on the bed.. I guess it' sbecause the thought of them both cuddling is just too delicious to ignore XD.. I like the thought of Jae dropping small sweet kisses all over Yunho's neck or just being cute and romantic in general.
- C/C are craved and appreciated.. be gentle though. I have sensitive soul :p.. just a simple 'I like/hate the fic' could do wonders to an author's heart ;). I keep doubting myself most of the time though at the same time I don't think I could stop writing >.<..
- Seriously, anyone else thought how freakin' HOT Junsu is when he was driving in AADBSK3??!! *drools*.. I love guys who drive with one hand on wheel and the other either on the gear stick or just on their lap.. KAKKOIII!!!!! XXDDD.. makes me long for some seme!Su with yoochun or Yunho fics..hehe :p.
-Right, so next after this I better concentrate on my J2 fic: Checkmate and another oneshot (MinHo) and also M.A.H.M.. and I think that's it?? TT-TT.. well, in the near future at least.. I have another angsty oneshot - possible JaeMinHo.. this one is already halfway done.. Ah~ but I got distracted by other idea-bunnies -.-'''.. I really don't have much of will power inside TT-TT. Hope you guys would keep on reading my fics.. sucks or not :p..

TTFN,
CriZz

Here's some cute Yunho's pics *glomp him*.. none of these are mine TT-TT:

Should I F-lock???

2009-08-12T01:23:26Z

Hmmm... Found out my sister just set up her own lj account.. Should I f-lock the whole journal?? Since she knew my username, it could be awkward if/when she decided to 'drop by'.. TT-TT..
Ah~ I dont know what to do.. I'm sure most of you guys would prefer your family members NOT to know/see what you've been posting to your journal, right?
Questionable entries/interests and all >.<..

Should I go and start looking for some pretty 'Friends Only' banner now?? Which reminds me, I'm searching for JaeHo layout... wonder where I can get one o.O..

Another thing, apparently lots of people are still interested in 'Checkmate' (to the point they keep sending me p.m <--which personally, I prefer they don't). I'm touched.. really, I am.. Because of that, I've decided to continue the fic. Hopefully, new chapter would be out by this Wed. HOWEVER, I would not post it on any community even as an announcement (or maybe I will, for this one chapter.. but not those after that). Only those who watch/friends this journal would know of any update on future chapters. Why?? just because actually.. >.<.. Plus my sister likes spn too AND J2 (seriously, I shuddered to think that she'll find out that I write fics O.O)..

I also found out that one of my sis's best friends died (from her lj).. in her sleep.. I kinda know the girl too TT-TT.. It makes me feel depressed/sad/down when I read about stuffs like this. Makes me think on how short and precious life is.. Weirdly enough, I started thinking if/when - God forbid, I'm gone one day... none of you guys would even know that. I'll just be one of thousands 'authors that AWOL' TT-TT.. I have so many ideas/fics I wanna share and it saddens me to think that I might not get the chance to. So with new determination, I promise to try as best as I could to not let anyone especially myself down (To those who is wondering wtf is this girl babbling about, let me tell you it's 2:30 AM.. I have a migraine and am feeling nauseous.. bear with me!).

On a totally different subject, I have a Master degree in AgriBusiness Management. Does anyone have any idea on what kind of job I could apply to?? and where?? I don't care whereever the location is in the world (honestly, do you think distance really matters with today's tech??). Any help is greatly appreciated XD.

Kisses;
CriZz

YunJae in Young Street Radioshow wt. Heechul, Junsu and Heebon

2009-08-10T03:17:11Z

Hiya guys!!

I've been searching a LOOOOOONNNGGGG time for this *kicked YT' ass*.. anyhoo, thanks to _monologue_ for the audio link and credit to JaeHo,Lovemixin and Hilary922003 (Crunchyroll) for the translation.

now let's hope I'm doing this right TT-TT.. I've uploaded the audio into my account in Imeem and below are the translation:

YunJae at Youngstreet

This is a radio show called "YoungStreet" hosted by Kim Heechul. Apparently, he had Junsu, Jaejoong and Heebon-sshi as a guest here when suddenly Jaejoong-sshi's phone rings! ^^; (the signs indicated in this conversation are words that wasn't heard clearly)

Heechul: Wait a moment! There's a sudden situation here...right now on Jae Joong's cellphone it says My Yunho?! has called.
Jaejoong/Heechul: Yunho phoned.
Jaejoong: Let me answer it.
Heechul: Urgent conversation~

Junsu laughs

Jaejoong: Yes, hello?

Yunho: @$!#%$^ (he was calling Jaejoong by his nickname/ or somethings like "chagiya")

Junsu after hearing what Yun Ho said, bursts out laughing

Jaejoong: >.> Uh~ Yun Ho ah~
Heechul: (suddenly) We are on a radio broadcast!!!
Jaejoong: Yun Ho ah~ I am currently on a radio broadcast ~~;
Yunho: (surprised) Ah? Really?!

Jaejoong: Right now everyone can hear your voice.
Yunho: @!#$^
Everyone: This is YOUNG STREET!
Heechul: This is YOUNG STREET hosted by Kim Hee Chul.
Yunho: $!@#%*&
Heebon: Very happy to hear you Yunho.
Yunho: $!#@%
Heebon: Hello~~
Yunho: $!@#%...right now, I'm listening to this too.
Jaejoong: I know!~ That...Heechul is here too.
Yunho: I want to see Heechul and Heebon too~
Heebon: I want to see you too...
Heechul: I'm not.
Junsu: This is really not scripted?? o_O
Heechul: Of course it's not scripted!!!
Jae Joong: (to the others)It was a sudden phone call -.-; (back to his phone) Oh? Uh...Yunho ah...that must have been hard work...oh...
Heebon: It's already so late and yet...(yet Yunho has the energy to phone Joongie? o.O)
Junsu: That must have been hard work!
Heechul: YOUNG STREET really is not scripted!!!
Jaejoong: ...played basketball and then had a fight??!!
Heechul: Ah...it's just in the TV drama, just in the TV drama, he didn't fight in real life.
Heebon: Of course not....
Jaejoong: Mmmm, just a little bit more hard work! Aw~~~that must have been hard.
Yunho (to JJ): Ah~Cheer for me!~
Jaejoong: Ok.
Everyone: 1-2-3~~ HWAITING!!!
Yunho: Aish~!!
Heechul: Very excited ~~;
Jaejoong: Just wait a bit, and I'll phone you back Yunho ah.
Heechul: Jun Su~ This is real, and that isn't someone else is it?
Junsu: Yah, once Jae Joong turned on his phone, a phone call came~!
Jae Joong: So mysterious~~ (a certain person clearly is not being very convincing.)

This is referring to Jae Joong and how he says that it's so strange that the phone would ring right after he turns it on. Fans think he knows why and is just pretending that he doesn't. The fan theory is that Yunho continuously phoned Jae Joong during his break from filming "First Love", which is why once JJ turns on his phone, it rings instantly.)

Fic: Oneshot [The Untitled] - DBSK

2009-08-06T23:54:23Z

Title: The Untitle (coz I suck big time at giving title TT-TT)
Pairing: JaeHo, not-so-ninja!Yoosu, hint at unrequited!MinHo
Rating: PG-13 (for kissing and sappy words :p)
Length: Oneshot
Warning: Unbeta <-- that alone should make you guys running for the hill TT-TT.. Also overly sappy, mushy, fluffy goo.. and a wee touch of angst (I was listening to 'Bolero' and 'Don't Say Goodbye' over and over again).
Summary: On Yunho’s silence about everything that’s been going on lately..

Jaejoong was the one who insisted that Yunho and Changmin not to get involve with the sueing case. His reasoning was; Changmin is the youngest so he shouldn’t have to bother with all the nasties – not while his hyungs are there to protect him still – Changmin protested loudly at this, claiming that he’s old enough to withstand whatever’s coming their way and weren’t they supposed to be a group? So why should he be left out for anything concerning their future?! However, Jaejoong was adamant in his decision while Junsu and Yoochun just went along with whatever the eldest say – as usual. It was different with Yunho though. Jaejoong never exactly explained fully on why he was so against the leader to join in with them. When pressed, he just said;

“This has nothing to do with you, Yunho. Me, Junsu and Yoochun will settle this ourselves.”

Yunho looked like he’d been slapped after he heard Jaejoong’s reasoning. Without saying anything, he just stiffly left the kitchen and went to lock himself in their room.

It had been a month since they had decided to proceed with the case. Things were getting more and more tense within the DBSK house and among its members. The media had went crazy with rumors on the band’s possible disbandment, fans begin to panic and keep sending love/hate letters to them, there were even some threats on suicide. To say that these had brought down more stress to the already overtired members would be an understatement.

The relationship between the leader and the eldest member seemed to take the hardest hit from the chaos. With Yunho’s hectic schedule of trying to balance the time between filming, photoshoot and band rehearsal coupled with his responsibility as the group’s leader and attending numerous meetings – he started to feel a bit worn out. It wouldn’t be all that bad if he feels/knew that he had the support from other members – especially his lover. After all, DBSK has almost always been on crazy schedule ever since their debut six years ago. Lately though, he could feel the five of them started to drift further and further apart. The group had split into two groups: Jae, Yoochun, Junsu and then, there’s him – Yunho. Changmin is more on the neutral ground, drifting between them all.

Yunho tried to give his full support to the other three members but it is so hard to do so when Jaejoong refused to let him in at all. Half of the updates on the case, Yunho would either found out from their manager hyung or sometimes the media. He don’t understand why Jaejoong had done this. Is Yunho that bad a leader that they feel they can’t trust him? Do they think that he won’t join them or give them any support? Do they never realise how much Yunho loves all of them? How he would gladly give every single thing he owns and more if that would guarantee their happiness?

And Jaejoong, didn’t he know he is Yunho’s reason for living? The reason Yunho pushed himself to keep on going even though sometimes it feels like it’s all too much and all he wanted to do is just to curl up in the corner and cry. Jae is Yunho’s air when he feels like he’s suffocating from all the pretence and deceit that seems to be the price of fame. Jae is the reason Yunho works so hard at being the best leader as one could possibly be during the day because he knows when they go home at night, he could find himself again within his lover’s embrace – where he could be just Yunho, dorky and all.

But all that had changed and Yunho didn’t know how to fix it. Didn’t even know where or what he had done wrong. Little by little he feels himself drowning again – and this time, there will be no one to save him.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~
.
“Jaejoong hyung, what do you think you’re doing?”

At the sound of the solemn voice; Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu looked up from the dining table where they sat around discussing on their next move on the case. On it, papers covered the entire surface. From the look of them, most came from the copy of the group’s contract and some were official letters from their lawyer.

Jaejoong frowned at the dark look on Changmin’s face.

’When did he came back?’ Jaejoong wondered, ’Is Yunho in the room or is he still outside filming?’.
Jaejoong frowned harder as he noticed the sound of heavy rain outside and the thought of his lover still working at God knows where. He knew that lately he’s been extra busy and hadn’t spent much time with his lover. Even when Yunho tried to take interest on what Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu been up to, Jaejoong would brush him off. While Jaejoong knew he was being unfair, he has a good reason for it. He just hope that Yunho would be patient a little while longer.
’I’ll make it up to him after all these are over.’ He thought, smiling slightly as the image of his cute lover enters his mind.

He turned his attention back to the present. The youngest is still glaring at him while ignoring the confused YooSu couple.

“What are you talking about Changmin? Can’t you see that we’re busy? I’ll start dinner shortly. If you’re too hungry to wait, there are some apples in the fridge…” Jaejoong’s voice trailed off as he noticed Changmin’s expression darkened further.

“I’m not talking about dinner, hyung! I’m talking about Yunho hyung. What do you think you’re doing to him?!”

“Yunho? I didn’t do anything to him. Heck, I haven’t even seen him at all today. Is there something wrong with Yunho?” Jaejoong could feel himself getting panic at the thought of numerous troubles his accident prone lover could get himself into.

“You’ve been ignoring him, hyung. You wouldn’t even let him on whatever’s going on with your legal dispute. Every single time Yunho hyung tries to ask you about anything, you just brushed him off like he didn’t matter at all. How do you think he feels about that?!” Hands fisted at his side, one can see that Changmin is trying very hard not to just shout at the eldest member. Yoochun and Junsu starts fidgeting around uneasily. It’s never a good idea to get in between the soulfighter infamous fights. Both of them tend to get quite violent without any regards to innocent bystander.

Jaejoong scowled at Changmin’s implication that he didn’t care about Yunho at all. How could he not? Yunho is his life! And truthfully, he is half the reason Jaejoong work to fight so hard against S.M. He thinks that SM had taken too many liberties on DBSK and especially on his lover.

“You don’t know what you’re talking about, Minnie. Yunho understands what we’re trying to accomplish her. If it’ll make you feel better, I’ll talk to him afterward..”
Turning back to the paper in front of him, Jaejoong is all ready to dismiss Changmin from his mind – Which was a big mistake as to the already agitated youngest, that was the last straw. His patience just snapped.

Slamming both of his hands on the table, causing few of the papers fluttered to the floor – Junsu instinctively wrapped his arms around Yoochun as if to shelter him from the youngest’ wrath while Yoochun shrank back into Junsu, wide-eyed at the scene unfolding in front of them – Changmin found himself grabbing Jaejoong’s collar and dragged him to stand upright, all the while shouting at the eldest in frustration.

“No, you’re the one who have no clue what he’s talking about! Do you think that you’re protecting him by keeping him in the dark?! What kind of impression do you think the people outside gets when they noticed that the leader of DBSK didn’t have anything to say at all on what’s been happening? They called him useless and disloyal, did you know that?! How do you think he feels when he heard that, huh?! Even worse, you keep ignoring him again and again! Do you have any idea how lost he is now? How confused and unloved he feels at this very moment? Have you looked at him lately, hyung?! Really really look at him?! You just leave him to deal with the public outside alone. How could you, hyung… How could you do that to the person who loves you the most?... Aren’t you supposed to be lovers?.... So why aren’t you loving him?..”
What started as shouting had tapered off slowly until by the end of it, the question was just a mere whisper.

Changmin’s tight grip on Jaejoong’s shirt loosened and he straightened up. He looked at Jaejoong straight in the eyes.

“You said that I don’t understand anything. But the way I see it, it’s you who doesn’t understand what he’s about to lose here. If you don’t buck up and realised how much he means to you, then let me tell you right now that there are more than few others that would be more than willing to take and treasure him to themselves… In fact, there’s one standing right here in front of you.”

Jaejoong who up until then had been keeping quiet during Changmin’s outburst, stiffened as the implication of what the youngster hinting at penetrate his shocked mind – he has no idea how bad things were with Yunho had gotten. He glared at the youngest member.

’Oh no he didn’t… If he dares to even lay one hand on Yunho.. he thought vehemently.

Changmin just stared back calmly – gone was the angry young man from before.

“All I need is just one excuse, Jaejoong hyung. Just give me one excuse and if I see you make Yunho upset one more time, I won’t hesitate to take him away from you. Let this be the only warning you’ll ever get from me..”

Jaejoong didn’t say anything, even though every fiber of his being is itching to pummel the youngest to the ground for even daring to think to claim Yunho. Instead, he pushed pass Changmin to go to his and Yunho’s bedroom. It’s high time to clear some stuffs between them.

Changmin look at the eldest retreating back. His expression is a mix of part satisfied, part regret and some traces of sadness woven together.

“Changmin-ah..” Soft husky voice called out.

Changmin turned his attention to his two hyungs who up until now had been silent observers.

“Hmm?”

Yoochun hesitated for a second, does he really wants to know?. He sighed.

“What you said to Jae hyung.. about you and Yunho.. is that true?”

Changmin smiled ruefully. He didn’t mean to blurt that one out actually..

“Does it matter? He would never be truly happy with me anyway. In his eyes and heart, there is only Jaejoong hyung. He won’t.. can’t see me..”

Yoochun bit his lip, Changmin’s expression is so heartbreaking and it distressed the older man. Junsu’s arms tightened around his lover. Matured or not, Changmin would always be the baby in the group. All of them can’t help but wanting to shelter him from any kind of hurt. But this is heart-related matter.. how can they protect him from falling in love with the unattainable one?

“Min.. I’m sorr..”

“Don’t.” Changmin cut him off, “don’t say you’re sorry for me. Because I’m not.. I didn’t fell in love with him with the condition that he has to love me back.. I just love him, pure and simple. And I want him to be happy… even if it’s not with me.”

With that, he calmly turned and walked out of the dining room.

Junsu and Yooschun looked at each other. Yoochun then lay his head on Junsu’s shoulder, sighing deeply.

“Su-su ah, since when did our life becomes like one of those Brazil soap-opera??”

Junsu turned to place a small kiss on top of Yoochun’s head.
“I don’t know, baby.. I don’t know..”

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.

Jaejoong looked at the lump on the bed, covered tightly with blankets. At first glance, he thought Yunho was asleep but then he heard soft sniffle coming from underneath the thick cover. Jaejoong sighed softly. How could he not see how miserable his lover is? He was too preoccupied dealing with shit a.k.a SME. Even unintentionally they still managed to mess up his life! Jaejoong thought angrily.

Approaching the bed slowly, he softly called out to Yunho.

“Yunnie..”

No answer.

The sniffling immediately stopped and Jaejoong can see his lover stiffened slightly. Lifting one side of the cover, he climbed on the bed behind Yunho. Propping himself up on one elbow, he tried again to make his lover turn to him by rubbing the tanned bare shoulder gently and again calling out the other’s name softly.

“Yunnie-yah.. look at me, please?”

No reaction at all coming from the younger man. Jaejoong sighed deeply… What kind of lover is he not to see this coming?
Still stroking the other’s shoulder absentmindedly, he decided to just bare it all..

“Aegie-yah… do you have any idea how precious you are to me?” Jaejoong dropped three small kisses along the bare shoulder. “You are my life and soul. Ever since we met, there’s nothing I’ve wanted more badly than to cherish and treasure you. I worked hard so that you’ll have your dream comes true. We all did.. I know that you probably wouldn’t believe me, but you are the reason this group has come this far. Junsu, Yoochun, Minnie and myself, we would do anything so that you smile a little bit more, would do anything just to make your heart a little bit lighter. We love you so very much… I love you more than life itself.”

Jae dropped another gentle kiss at the side of Yunho’s neck – behind his ear – and inhaled deeply the special scent that he knew by heart, could make him crazy with desire every single time he catch the barest whiff of it, the one that let him feel ’this-is-where-I-belong’ each time he buries his face at the side of his lover’s neck – his favourite place to be in the whole world. Jaejoong could sense Yunho’s becoming less and less tense with each passing words. He continues..

“Which is why Yunnie… It hurts when we saw that you weren’t appreciated by some other people. It pained us when they took advantage of your kindness, gentleness… You’re the brightest among us all, aegie-yah… But day by day I see the light dim a little bit more as you tried to please everybody who keeps pushing and taking from you… from the group… You worked so hard at protecting us, but you never let us protect you back. I can’t bear it anymore, Yunho-yah.. You’re everything good and sweet in this corrupted world. Yet they can make you doubt yourself, hate yourself – had you thinking that you’ll never be good enough. The same goes to all of us, Yunho-yah. We’re all tired to be pushed around like we’re some kind of commodity instead of human beings.”

Jaejoong tightened his arms that had snaked around Yunho’s torso in a loose embrace. He peppered small, open-mouth, wet kisses to the nape of his lover’s neck.

“The reason I didn’t want you to get involve was so that you’ll be spared if things were to go downhill. You’re the group’s heart, Yunnie. Me, Yoochun and Junsu agreed that if.. or when anything bad happen, we’ll take the full brunt of it. It’s our turn to protect you and Minnie. Things were about to go very very bad before they get better, Yunho-yah. People would come out with all sorts of speculations. SM would try to make us be the bad guys in all this. I want to shelter you from all that. I know how you take everything to heart. You’re strong, Yunho.. I'm not saying that you’re not.. But you also have the softest heart. I didn’t want you to be sad and upset when you heard the accusations and hurting words.

Jae buried his face to the back of Yunho’s neck, his voice slightly muffled.

“But I’ve failed, haven’t I? Instead of protecting you, I was the one who hurts you the most. Instead of kissing away your tears, I was the cause of them.. I want to keep you safe and yet I was the reason people were talking bad about you..” Jae drew a shuddering breath, “I’m sorry aegie-yah.. I’m sorry for being such a fool..”

At this, Yunho slowly turned around to face his lover. He stared at the devastated face for a moment and feel his heart soften..

“Jae… you hurt me.”

Jaejoong opened his mouth to apologize again but Yunho placed his fingertip on Jae’s lips to cut him off.

“Listen to me… You hurt me a lot when you didn’t let me get involve at all in your plan. It hurts because I feel like you didn’t trust me. I’m still the group’s leader and your lover, Jae.. Why can’t I share the burden with all of you? I want to protect you just as much as you wanted to protect me. Whatever happens, we’re all in this together. No matter what the outcome is.. okay?”

“I…”

“I won’t accept any other answer aside from ‘yes Yunnie… whatever you say’!”

“Ooh.. my baby is all forceful and dominant today, eh?” Jae teased his lover.

“Yah!”

Jaejoong laughed when he saw Yunho’s pout. He pinched the tip of the other’s nose lightly and dropped a kiss on top of his forehead.

“Okay.. Okay.. Yes Yunnie, whatever you say.”

He then propped himself to sit up a little against the headboard and pulled Yunho to snuggle against his chest.

“I miss this..” Yunho whispered, “I miss you”.

Jae hugged him harder, “I miss you too.. I’m sorry for leaving you alone, aegie-yah..”

“As long as you come back to me, it’s okay.. I can be strong too” Yunho snuggled deeper into Jae’s arms.

They lie there together, basking in the simple pleasure of just having your loved ones close.

“Can I confess something?” Yunho said quietly. His voice muffled caused by burying his face against Jaejoong’s chest, “I’m kind of scared..”

Jaejoong dropped another kisses on top of Yunho’s head. “That’s alright, baby.. Because I’m kind of scared too. We all are… There’s not a day go by where I didn’t questioned myself ‘what the hell am I doing here’..”

“Jae… in the future.. whatever happens…”

“We’ll still be together, Yunnie. I promise you that. No matter what will come. All of us.. together.. forever.. Five minus one equals zero, remember?”

“…together… forever.. ” Yunho’s voice is getting more and more soft as he became drowsy. “I like the sound of that.. pinkie promise, boo?”

Jaejoong smiled fondly down at his now sleeping lover and linked their little fingers together on his chest,

“Pinkie promise, Yunnie-yah.. together forever..”

Fic: King Kamo-butt (fairy tales SuChun)

2009-07-13T01:30:49Z

TITLE: KING KAMO-BUTT

Original: King Thrushbeard.

Author: Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm

Adaptation by: Me!! \(*o*)/..

Dedicated to: yoosu_sarang

Pairing: SuChun

Once upon a time in ..er.. some distant kingdom - where no one actually cares about the name of the place because hello~ that so wasn’t the point of the story here, lives a king who had a.. well.. that’s the thing.. we think it’s a prince but he is so beautiful (raven black wavy hair, snow white skin, strawberry blush lips etc..) that most people had doubts of his..er.. masculinity. There were also some rumors on how the prince is so beautiful that whoever that happened to gaze onto his face would immediately go mad with lust and some even said there had been cases reported that people been turned to stone at the sight of the blinding beauty of Prince Yoochun (that was his name by the way, in case any of you are wondering).

**** **** *****
……….
……..
…
..
Yoochun: “Crizz, did you just implied that I look like a medusa?? The monster with snakes for hair?!” *eyes twitching*
Crizz: “..uh.. just a moment..” *flip through her ‘bedtime stories for girls’ book* “..uh.. oops?? Wrong fairy tales..eheh..” -.-‘’’..”Aww.. don’t worry Yoochun-ah.. Look on the bright side. I said that you’re very beautiful, right?? Plus, I’m sure Junsu and Changmin would love you – snakes hair or not” *bright smile ^___^*
Yoochun:… *head desk*
Crizz: o.O.. “oh well, back to the story.. hmmm, now where was I again?”

***** ***** ***** *****
As beautiful as he is however, Prince Yoochun has but one flaw. The spoiled prince is just too proud and haughty that no suitor was good enough for him. He sent away one after another, rejecting and ridiculing them beforehand.

Once, the King made a great feast and invited thereto, from far and near, all the young men likely to marry – now, you might be wondering why on earth did the King invited men?? Wasn’t he supposed to marry off his son to a girl? Well truth is, no female could ever compare to Prince Yoochun’s loveliness. After seeing him, nearly ¾ of the female population had decided to commit mass suicide for their self-confidence to take such a beating (from a boy, no less) – The men were all marshalled in a row according to their rank and standing; first came the kings, then the grand-dukes, then the princes, the earls, the barons, and the gentry.

Then the King's son was led through the ranks, but to every single one he had some objection to make; one was too fat, "The wine-cask," he said. Another was too tall, "Long and thin has little in." The third was too short, "Short and thick is never quick." The fourth was too pale, "As pale as death." The fifth was too pretty, “…. Like a living doll”. The sixth has too small a face, “Yah! Are you an alien from outer space??”. And so it goes, the proud prince had something to say against every one, but he made himself especially merry over a good king who stood quite high up in the row, and whose butt had grown a little..well.. let just say, extremely well-developed.

Prince Yoochun was all readied to mock this one too when he looked up and their eyes met for the first time. Suddenly the usually haughty prince found himself speechless. In front of him, stood the most gorgeous looking man Yoochun had ever seen. Finding himself blushing uncontrollably, the prince frowned when he saw the king smirk slightly – as if he knows of his affect on the proud prince. Yoochun feels like smacking the smirking King. How dare he. Yoochun fumed quietly, how dare this..this kamo-butt king laugh at him, Prince Yoochun – the fairest person alive. The king should feel honoured just to be in Yoochun’s presence!. He will show the stupid king that one does NOT makes fun of Prince Yoochun.

"Well," Yoochun cried and laughed as loudly as he possibly could – as to shame the king, "he has a duck-butt!" and from that time King Junsu – for that is the real name of the gorgeous king, got the name of King Kamo-butt. But the old King – Yoochun’s father, when he saw that his son did nothing but mock the people; and despised all the suitors who were gathered there, was very angry, and swore in front of everyone that gathered that Yoochun should have for his husband the very first beggar that came to his doors. And no amount of tantrums that Yoochun threw would change the old King’s mind.

A few days afterwards a fiddler came and sang beneath the windows, trying to earn some small change. When the King heard him he said, "Let him come up." So the fiddler came in, in his dirty, ragged clothes, and sang before the King and his son, and when he had ended he asked for a trifling gift. The King said, "Your song has pleased me so well that I will give you my son there, to wed."

Prince Yoochun shuddered, but the King said, "I have taken an oath to give you to the very first beggar-man, and I will keep it." All he could say was in vain; the priest was brought, and he had to let himself be wedded to the fiddler on the spot. When that was done the King said, "Now it is not proper for you - a beggar, to stay any longer in my palace, you may just go away with your husband.”

The beggar led Yoochun out by the hand, and he was obliged to walk away on foot with his husband. When they came to a large forest Yoochun asked, "To whom does that beautiful forest belong?" "It belongs to King Junsu – of whom you have shamed with the name Kamo-butt; if you had taken him, it would have been yours." "Ah, unhappy man that I am, if I had but taken King Kamo-butt!" Yoochun cried.

Afterwards they came to a meadow, and he asked again, "To whom does this beautiful green meadow belong?" "It belongs to King Junsu – of whom you have shamed with the name Kamo-butt; if you had taken him, it would have been yours." "Ah, unhappy man that I am, if I had but taken King Kamo-butt!" Yoochun cried.

Then they came to a large town, and he asked again, "To whom does this fine large town belongs?" "It belongs to King Junsu – of whom you have shamed with the name Kamo-butt; if you had taken him, it would have been yours." "Ah, unhappy man that I am, if I had but taken King Kamo-butt!" Yoochun cried.

"It does not please me," said the fiddler, "to hear you always wishing for another husband; am I not good enough for you?" At last they came to a very little hut, and Yoochun said, "Oh goodness! What a small house; to whom does this miserable, mean hovel belongs?" The fiddler answered, "That is my house and yours, where we shall now live together."

Yoochun had to stoop in order to go in at the low door.
"Where are the servants?" said the prince. "What servants?" answered the beggar; "you must yourself do what you wish to have done. Just make a fire at once, and set on water to cook my supper, I am quite tired." But the former prince knew nothing about lighting fires or cooking, and the beggar had to lend a hand himself to get anything fairly done. When they had finished their scanty meal they went to bed; but he forced Yoochun to get up quite early in the morning in order to look after the house.

For a few days they lived in this way as well as might be, and came to the end of all their provisions. Then the beggar said, "Yoochun, we cannot go on any longer eating and drinking here and earning nothing. You weave baskets." He went out, cut some willows, and brought them home. Then Yoochun began to weave, but the tough willows wounded his delicate hands.

"I see that this will not do," said the beggar; "you had better spin, perhaps you can do that better." Yoochun sat down and tried to spin, but the hard thread soon cut his soft fingers so that the blood ran down. "See," said the beggar, "you are fit for no sort of work; I have made a bad bargain with you. Now I will try to make a business with pots and earthenware; you must sit in the market-place and sell them."
Alas, thought Yoochun, if any of the people from my father's kingdom come to the market and see me sitting there, selling, how they will mock me?. But it was of no use, he had to yield unless he chose to die of hunger.

For the first day he succeeded well, for the people were glad to buy Yoochun’s wares because he was so beautiful, and they paid him what he asked; many even gave him the money and left the pots with him as well. So they lived on what Yoochun had earned as long as it lasted, then the beggar bought a lot of new crockery. With this Yoochun sat down at the corner of the market-place, and set it out round about him ready for sale. But suddenly there came a drunken soldier galloping along, and he rode right amongst the pots so that they were all broken into a thousand bits. Yoochun began to weep, and did not know what to do for fear.

"Alas! What will happen to me?" cried he; "what will my husband say to this?"

Yoochun ran home and told him of the misfortune. "Who would seat himself at a corner of the market-place with crockery?" said the beggar; "leave off crying, I see very well that you cannot do any ordinary work, so I have been to our King's palace and have asked whether they cannot find a place for a kitchen-maid, and they have promised me to take you; in that way you will get your food for nothing."
The King's son was now a kitchen-maid, and had to be at the cook's beck and call, and do the dirtiest work. In both of his pockets Yoochun fastened little jars, in which he took home his share of the leavings, and upon this he and his beggar husband lived.

One day, it happened that the wedding of the King was to be celebrated – everybody was so excited as apparently nobody has any idea on who or even how the new queen would looks like – so the poor former prince went up and placed himself by the door of the hall to look on. When all the candles were lit, and people, each more beautiful than the other, entered, and all was full of pomp and splendour, he thought of his lot with a sad heart, and cursed the pride and haughtiness which had humbled him and brought him to so great poverty.

The smell of the delicious dishes which were being taken in and out reached Yoochun, and now and then the servants threw him a few morsels of them: these he put in his jars to take home.

Then the King entered – clothed in velvet and silk, with gold chains about his neck. And when he saw the beautiful man standing by the door he seized him by the hand, and would have danced with him; but Yoochun refused and shrank with fear, for he saw that it was King Junsu a.k.a Kamo-butt, his suitor whom he had driven away with scorn. His struggles were of no avail however, King Junsu drew Yoochun into the hall; but the string by which his pockets were hung broke, the pots fell down, the soup ran out, and the scraps were scattered all about. And when the people saw it, there arose general laughter and derision, and Yoochun was so ashamed that he would rather have been a thousand miles below the ground.

Yoochun sprang to the door and would have run away, but on the stairs a man caught him and brought him back; and when he looked at him it was King Junsu again. He said to Yoochun kindly, "Do not be afraid, I and the fiddler who has been living with you in that wretched hovel are one. For love of you I disguised myself so; and I also was the soldier who rode through your crockery. This was all done to humble your proud spirit, and to punish you for the insolence with which you mocked me." All the while he’s talking; the king is stroking Yoochun’s soft cheek tenderly.

Then Yoochun wept bitterly and said, "I have done great wrong, and am not worthy to be your consort."
But the king said, "I have fallen for you from the first time our eyes have met. How could you asked me to just let you go easily? Be comforted my love, the evil days are past; now we will celebrate our wedding."

Then the maids-in-waiting came and put on Yoochun the most splendid clothing, and his father and the whole court came and wished the prince happiness in his marriage with King Junsu the Kamo-butt, and the joy now began in earnest.

And like all fairy tales should end; the couple live happily ever after for many, many years that come.

Fic: また会う日まで - Until We Meet Again (Interlude II)

2009-07-05T23:28:37Z

INTERLUDE II (The day before chapter 2)
a.k.a
BEST FRIENDS FOREVER

“Changmin-ah.. are you sulking?”

“…..No”

“Yes, you are”

“No, I’m not”

“Are too!”

“Am not!”

The older of the two pouted then his expression changed to one of a cheeky one. Without warning, he suddenly pounced on top of his younger friend and started tickling him mercilessly.

“Ah…! Yunho hyung! S..stop..!!” giggles.

“Not until you admit that you really were sulking!”

“….”

“Fine.. suit yourself then..” more tickling.

“Ahaha..! Fine..! I admit.. stop!”

The two little demons are currently in Yunho’s room. They decided to spend some time with each other before Yunho go to Heaven’s World with his parents the next day – seeing as the two best friends realised that they won’t see each other for at least two months after this. Yunho tried to cajoled his parents into bringing Changmin along – while both Yul-ryeo and Mago had no objections to that, Changmin’s dad had apologised to the little pouting prince and gently told him that he would prefer Changmin to stay in Hell to start with his training. Being the captain of Hell’s elite army, General Shim obviously wants his only heir to follow his footsteps. Yunho considered throwing a tantrum to get his way but then Changmin just hugged and kissed his hyung on the cheek, exclaiming that he promise he will work very hard so that he can be Yunho’s protector in the future. Blushing, Yunho had grudgingly gave in.

Now however, Changmin couldn’t help but feel a bit insecure..

What if Yunho hyung likes it so much over there that he don’t want to come back here ever again? he thought worriedly, What if he found a new best friend?!!

……..
……
…
.

“Yunho hyung!”

The sudden shout startled Yunho who was trying to find new sensitive place to tickle his Changminnie. He looked up to the younger’s face and blinked curiously when he saw a frown on the cute little face.

“Yes Minnie?”

“Hyung! You have to promise that you will come back!”

Yunho tilted his head cutely at the weird request, “Eh? What are you talking about? Of course I will..”

“Promise me, hyung!”, the younger one insisted, “And you also have to promise me that you won’t replace me as your best friend!”

“I…”

“Pinkie promise, Yunho hyung!”

Yunho giggled at the earnest face of his friend.
“I pinkie promise that I will come back and I will never replace you with anyone else as my best friend,” Yunho then gently stroked one of Changmin’s cheek fondly, causing the other to blush, “Because you are my favourite Changminnie and you always will be. No one else can ever take your place. So, don’t worry so much, ok?” giggles again.

Changmin nodded, satisfied.

“Good… now get off me,” he pushed Yunho to the side – albeit gently, and got up. “You’re heavy.. honestly hyung, you really need to cut down on those cupcakes and chocolates. In fact, give them to me instead..”

Yunho gasped indignantly, “Yah! Why you little…!”

But Changmin had already ran halfway across the room towards the door..

“Catch me if you can, hyung!”

“Yah! Shim Changmin!! Come back here..!”

Two little demons, without a care in the world... their bright laughter rings through the palace joyously…

Best friends forever.. pinkie promise!

A/N:
I hope you'll like these two interludes as much as I enjoyed writing them..

Fic: また会う日まで - Until We Meet Again (Interlude I)

2009-07-05T23:24:27Z

Title : また会う日まで (Mata Au Hi Made) - Until We Meet Again (previously: Untitled.)

Pairing : Eventual JaeHo(main)/SuChun/MinHo/JaeMinHo.. <--warning: I like uke!Yunho and uke!Yoochun XD

Warning: UNBETA!!! <--haha, forgot to add that. Thanks Gabby for reminding me :). BEWARE of slow, painful strangulation of English (and whatever little Korean words I know :p) language!! >.<..

Chapter: Interlude I (After chapter 4)

Disclaimer : Nope, these guys aren't mine. I just borrowed them for a while. I'll return them back unharmed.. honest..*crossed fingers behind*

Notes:
i) For general information on the story please read notes on chapter 1 and 2.

ii)Hmm.. so I was thinking that for chapter 5, I would like for our boys to be all grown ups.. However, before I say bye bye to chibi JaeHoMinChun - unfortunately, there's no Junsu in the interlude :(.. I would like to write about them one last time (I think this gonna be the last time :p).

Anyhoo, this is interlude I which placed about a week after Yunho disappearance (Chapter 4). Interlude II would be on Changmin/Yunho centric which took place one day before chapter 2. I just thought it would be nice to write on their friendship seeing as how they were supposed to be close and all.. Jaeho/Yunjae comm, please don't freak out as Interlude II would show only friendship-theme MinHo pairing. Though I can't say for certain in the future, currently ALL of them are in FRIENDSHIP mode only..

SuChun lovers, don't kill me yet.. be patient.. yes, there WILL be SuChun somewhere in the future.. I really really want them to be the romantic couple in this..hehe.. *rolls around excitedly*.

INTERLUDE I (After chapter 4):
a.k.a
COME BACK TO ME

“Umma.. Why isn’t he wakes up yet?”

“Well baby.. sometimes when we went through something bad, our body needs time to recuperate and heal. I imagine Yunho here must’ve experienced something really terrible..”

“Yunho? Is that my new hyung’s name, umma?”

“I’m not too sure but it says so on the wrist. Although Heaven knows who would’ve put such marks on small child..” sigh, “anyway, don’t worry so much Chunnie.. I’m sure he will wakes up soon enough, ok? Now do you want to fishing with Appa this afternoon? You like playing near the river, didn’t you?”

Enthusiastic nod and a giggle.

“Unn.. Appa said next time he will let me hold the fishing rod.”
Turned to look at the sleeping figure on the bed, “Yunho hyung.. hurry and wake up. Chunnie wants to play with hyung so badly…”

***** ***** *******
So-Hee stopped outside her son’s room, sighing deeply. Muffled sobs drift through the close door. She hesitated for a moment before deciding to enter anyway. Knocking softly, So-Hee pushed the door open and stepped inside the dark room. There, huddled at the side of the bed - hugging his knees to his chest, rocking back and forth – is the Heaven’s prince himself. At the moment, gone was all traces of the usually calm, matured-for-his-age 6 years old. All that’s left is a sad, inconsolable angel child – missing his little demon friend so much that couldn’t stop crying and refusing to even comes out of his room.

So-Hee bit her lips at the sight. It has been a week since Yunho disappeared. Outside, the entire Heaven and Hell is in an uproar. The search for the demon prince continues fruitlessly. Yunho seemed to have vanished without a trace. His parents… So-Hee feels like crying every time she looks at Mago and Yul-ryeo hyung. She had never felt as helpless as she feels every single time she lays eyes on red-rimmed eyed Mago and weary-faced Yul-ryeo hyung. She didn’t know how to act, what to say to them. How do you console anyone who has lost their child? What words could possibly reassure them that everything would be okay when you know that it would never be the same again? How to sympathize without revealing that every seconds you are thankful that it wasn’t your own child that is missing – no matter how cruel it may sound?

Hell is crying for blood. All the demons are eager to take revenge of their missing prince and they are putting the blame solely on Heaven’s people. While the angels are all enrage and insulted that the demons are accusing them without any concrete proof. Everybody is on hair trigger and the slightest provocation could lead to a fight. Hwang-gung and Yul-ryeo is trying their hardest to prevent anything major from happening and at the same time to put up a united front against their subjects but anyone could see the strained relationship between the once close ‘brothers’. Despite their best efforts, a rumour of impending war is circulating around Heaven like a wildfire – resulting in making more and more angels nervous and on the edge.

So-Hee shook her head, no matter what is happening outside the palace, her primary concern now is her son. She approached carefully and kneeled in front of him.

“Jaejoong-ah..”

Small tear-stained face looked from their hiding place in between his arms.
“Mommy?... Mommy… help me… I … I can’t find Yunnie.. He’s gone and it’s my fault.. I t..told him to leave. I said I hate him.. and now he’s gone… and I will never see him again..”

So-Hee could feel her heart broke into a million pieces at the small, tearful voice. Grabbing the small body and hug him tightly to her chest, she can’t help but cry along with Jaejoong.
“Sweetie.. It wasn’t your fault, okay? Please.. please don’t think of it like that. We will find Yunho soon.. So please don’t put any blame on yourself..”

“I hurt him… and now I can’t feel him anymore..” Jaejoong sobbed quietly, encased in his mother’s arms, “ Mummy… something inside me hurts… I can’t feel him anymore… I told him to leave and.. and now he’s gone and I can’t feel him… I told him I hate him… And now he went away forever.. Yunnie-yah, I’m sorry… come back.. please come back.. Yunnie, please… come back to me…”

So-Hee cries quietly as she heard the desperate plea of her son. She clutched the shaking body tighter – offering what little comfort she could.

“Please Yunho… please come back to me…”

***** ****** ******
Please Yunho… please come back to me…

With a gasp, a pair of almond-shaped eyes snapped open.

~finis~

A/N:

Fic: また会う日まで - Until We Meet Again (4/?)

2009-06-29T13:24:50Z

CHAPTER 4:
SOULMATES ARE FOREVER… RIGHT?
a.k.a
FATE vs DESTINY

" My lord, all the preparations had been readied according to your order.”
“Good. Did she tell you when we can proceed with the plan?”
“Well… her ladyship said that tonight would be the best time as it will be new moon down below and the spell would get stronger with the power of new lunar.”
“Tonight? This is even better than I thought. The sooner we can get it done, the better. I’ll be damned before I let the prophecy comes to light.”
“My lord, her ladyship also asked me to remind you about..well.. on the..”
“Haha.. the reward? Tell her not to worry. She will be amply rewarded once our plan comes through. The kingdom of Heaven and Hell would be under us. There’s nothing we can’t do or have then. Now off you go! Tell your mistress that I’ll expect everything to go smoothly tonight. There’s no place for mistakes or it will cause our downfall..”
“Yes my lord..” bows
It won’t be long now my little demon prince. Enjoy your life while you still can..

**** **** **** ****
“Ooohh… how about rainbow coloured wings then?” Yunho asked excitedly.

Jaejoong blinked at his hyperactive friend and looked down at the piece of scroll in his hand. They are currently in his room trying to list down the characteristics of their future baby. Although…

-Boy (both of them agreed there is no way their baby going to be some cooties bringer girls..eww..).
- Big brown eyes (Yunho said he wants the baby to have the exact same eyes as Jaejoong’s because they’re so pretty! glomp, blush).
-1/2 tan, ½ snow white skin (Jaejoong thought it’s better for the baby to have Yunho’s colouring while Yunho argued that he really wants the baby to look exactly like Jae.. They agreed to disagree then).
-Wings….

Well, that was when they got stuck. Again.
Jae thought Yunho’s black wings are so much cooler while Yunho thought the brilliant whiteness of Jaejoong’s wings are prettier.

“Eh? Why don’t you guys make the wimngs black and white then?” A high pitched; squeaky voice suddenly pipes in from above their heads, on top of Jaejoong’s bed.

Xiah Junsu, the latest addition to their little world – Yunho declared that anyone who hates Tiffany as much as they do, are worthy enough to hang around with the JaeHo duo (Jaejoong couldn’t help but blush a little at the nickname Yunho gave them). The squeaky-voiced 5 years old Junsu is the grandson of Major General Xiah – head of Heaven’s elite army. To tell the truth, at first Jaejoong wasn’t so keen on the idea of sharing Yunho’s attention with someone else - bad enough that he keeps talking about Changmin almost everytime, Jae thought sulkily – but even the Heaven Prince himself can’t resist Junsu’s cute pleading face, squeaky voice and all.

“Black and white? That’s no fun..” Yunho pouted, “Then the baby will look like your grandpa’s head. Full of grey hairs..”

The youngest boy just giggled at the mental image that came to his mind. Junsu rolls around on the bed while hugging one of Jaejoong’s plushie. He really likes his hyung-deul. Yunho is so cute and nice and playful and he loves to talk a lot. Jaejoong, while quieter than Yunho is – still so very sweet and sometimes Junsu can’t help but stare at him. Jaejoong hyung is so pretty! Junsu thought he must have been the prettiest angel he ever seen in his short 5 years of life. Before, Junsu was a bit scared to talk to him – he looks so cold :( - But after Yunho hyung came to heaven, Junsu could see how warm Jaejoong hyung really is. Why, he wasn’t even annoyed when Junsu glomped him… although his eyes kind of twitched a bit when Junsu did the same to Yunho hyung.

Yunho and Jaejoong are still on the floor discussing (read: bickering) on their letter to Mr. Cupid when they were interrupted by Junsu again. Both of them turned to face the youngest boy who by now is sitting up straight on the bed with a look of horror on his face.

“Ah! You guys can’t have baby yet!! You have to get married first!” Junsu exclaimed while flailing his hands around agitatedly.

Jaejoong just look at the younger boy blankly while Yunho slowly sit up from his lying position, scratching his head in confusion.

“Married?”
“Unn.. My Grandpa said that only married people can have babies…, they have to love each other forever and ever and nobody can separate them apart again” Junsu nodded confidently.

Yunho and Jaejoong just look at each other, blushing slightly. Each had known how special the other one is to him so the staying together forever part appeals to them. However…

“Do you know how to do it?” Yunho asked Jaejoong curiously. The angel prince just shook his head and both of them turn to look up at Junsu expectantly.

Junsu grin widely. Wow.. finally something that he, Xiah Junsu know better than his hyung deul. He can’t help but giggled again.

“Never fear, Xiah Junsu is here!” Junsu jumped down from the bed and do a heroic pose.

Jaejoong just rolled his eyes.
“Just get on with it, pabo..”

Junsu stuck out his tongue cheekily at the grumpy prince then quickly ran to hide behind Yunho. Hah! Never let it be said that Xiah Junsu didn’t have any sense of self-protection. Yunho just laughed and leaned forward to plant a smacking kiss on the fuming prince’s cheek. Just like that, Jaejoong stopped in his quest to strangle the younger angel and just give Yunho a look of adoration. Slight blush adorned his cheeks again.

The little demon prince smiled sweetly at his friend,
“Jaejoongie, let’s get married..ok?”
Jaejoong just nodded enthusiastically.

Junsu snickered. Jaejoong hyung is so whipped, he thought gleefully. He then stepped out from his position behind Yunho and cleared his throat.

“Right. First we need a book..” Junsu declared importantly.

He looked around the room expectedly and finally decided on one particular book he noticed lying on top of the small desk at the corner. It got colourful pretty angels picture on the cover – Junsu thought it’s very sparkly and sparkly things tend to distract the young angel boy. He wonders if Jaejoong hyung would let him borrow this book for later on…

“That is my ‘Bedtime stories for good little Angels’ book.” Jaejoong said in a deadpanned voice.

Junsu pouted.
“So? Listen, who among us actually know about this marriage thing hmm??” seeing the other two pointed –although quite reluctantly – at him, Junsu nodded in satisfaction. “Right. It’s me. So both of you should just listen to whatever I said, arasso?!”

“Yes teacher!” Both angel and demon chorused solemnly… only to break down in giggles seconds later. Junsu rolled his eyes, hmph.. and they called me childish, aish...

“Okay. First Jaejoong hyung, you should take Yunho hyung’s hand and stand in front of me.. stop laughing hyung! You should be all solemn and serious!”

…”You’re holding the book upside down..” Jaejoong pointed out to Junsu helpfully while Yunho just laugh harder.

“Yah! Both of you are too much!”

Seeing the youngest angel nearly in tears, Jaejoong and Yunho decided to stop with their teasing and just go along with whatever game the other cooked up.

“Ok ok.. we’re sorry.. See, Jaejoong and I am holding hands now. What do we have to do next?” Yunho tried to appease their cute, squeaky-voiced friend. Junsu looked at his hyung suspiciously but seeing that indeed Yunho and Jaejoong is holding hands and are currently standing in front of him, waiting. Junsu’s face brightened considerably. Now to proceed.. er.. let’s see.. how does the marriage thing going again??

Junsu remembers the old scroll he found in his grandpa’s library about a month ago – he was playing hide n seek at the time – It had some kind of weird drawings and words on it and when he asked grandpa what do they mean, grandpa explained that it was an ancient rites for marriage ceremony. Something about soul binding for married couples. It was so that their souls, fate and destiny would forever be entwined with each other and no matter in whichever lifetimes, one would always follow his or her soulmate. Because it is so powerful and intense, nobody ever use the rite anymore.

Junsu grinned. Despite how he looks on the outside, he actually has a pretty good memory. So he memorized every single word on that scroll. He’ll show to his hyung deul that he’s not just some childish crybaby. Besides, what harm could it do?

“Ah U-eh, uben em A-eh;
Ah U-eh, pesht em A-eh;
Pert Neteru pu nuk meri-v.
Ah ba eh-a sepvt ! Mehk-a;
i-kua amen-nua emmeh-ten,
qemmam-tu Neteru em sekeru.
Au kshemu seku ;
Uat ap-na au.
Nuk uru paut, ba-a pu neteru,
Se-eh-he Te tem tettetu.
Uben-k nek urtu-ab,
pesht-k nek, Urtu-ab;
teh-k-tu her kes-k,
heh-ek am-v.
Thesu-tu!” (i)

As soon as Junsu started citing.. Whatever it is he’s rambling about, Jaejoong and Yunho can feel their hearts beat faster and faster. Blood roars through their veins and their tightly clasped hands feel warmer. Both of their wings appeared and stretched out fully behind the two boys. When the last word left Junsu’s mouth, both Yunho and Jaejoong yelped and let go of each other’s hand when they suddenly felt white hot pain around their wrists. The pain only lasts couple of seconds though.

The boys look down at their hands in wonder. There, encircling their wrists are some black marks tattooed on their skins. Looking closely revealed that the marks were actually letters..
On Yunho’s right wrist, they read 내 자신. 내 마음은. 나의 윤호야.
And on Jaejoong’s left wrist, it was 내 하나. 내 인생. 내 재중이. (ii)

Both boys look at each other in amazement and delight and Junsu seems very please with himself. None of them has any idea what they had just done would change the course of their life forever.

***** ***** *****

Jaejoong is an idiot! Yunho thought, sobbing quietly.
The upset little demon currently is running down the secluded path somewhere in the palace’s garden. He has no idea where he is heading; all he knew was that he has to get away from the one who hurts his feelings so.

***
15 minutes ago

“Would you please stop saying that name every 5 minutes?!” Jaejoong snapped suddenly.

Yunho gaped at the normally calm and gentle angel in front of him. What’s wrong with Jae? Yunho wondered. He had been fine before and both of them been playing quitly with Yunho’s blocks after they got tired of admiring their new tattoos. Junsu’s nanny had come to pick up the boy shortly before that so that the little angel could get his short nap before the evening meal. Junsu of course put up quite a fuss and only calmed down and agree to leave after both of the older boys pinkie promise him that yes, they will play together again tomorrow.

“What are you talking about Jae?” Yunho asked, confused.

“Changmin.” Jaejoong spat out the hated name like it’s something disgusting he wants to was out from his mouth. Yunho had mentioned – again – how much he’s missing Changmin an Jaejoong just has had enough.

“Changmin? How can you hate him so much when you have never even met him?!” Yunho asked heatedly, “Besides, Changmin is my best friend. What is so wrong with me saying that I miss…”

“Between me and Changmin, who do you like more?” Jaejoong interrupted Yunho’s ranting.

“Wha..”

“Just answer me, Yunnie!”

“I… Changmin..” Yunho stammered.

“Get out.” Jaejoong said icily. Hearing Changmin’s name first, broke the Heaven’s prince heart. And to think that for me, Yunho is the only one. He didn’t even consider me as his best friend. Jaejoong is trying really hard not to cry.

“Jae.. wha..” Yunho started to reach out to the upset angel but stopped when Jaejoong slapped his hand away causing Yunho to yelp and rubbed his abused hand.

“I said get out! Why don’t you go back to hell where you belong to?! Go back to your best friend Changmin! I don’t want to see you ever again. I hate you!” Jaejoong nearly take back his words when he saw tears sprang into Yunho’s eyes but decided against it.

The stinging pain on his hand is nothing compared to the hurt he feels in his heart. Yunho backed away slowly from Jaejoong. Tears spilled out of his eyes to trail slowly down his chubby cheeks.

“…Changmin is my best friend. But y..you are my most precious person, Jaejoongie..” he whispered. With that, the little demon let out a loud sob and ran out the door leaving behind a very surprised little angel behind.

***
Now

Yunho had stopped running and am now just walking slowly towards the pond where he and Jaejoong had claimed as their secret hiding out spot. Still upset and sniffing slightly, the little demon didn’t notice that he had been followed. So he was startled when he heard a voice suddenly behind him.

“Well.. well.. look what I found.. Just the little demon I was looking for.”

Before Yunho could turn around however, he was grabbed from behind and a very lage hand covered his mouth to muffle his scream.

“Didn’t anyone tell you that it’s not a good idea for a demon to walk alone anywhere in heaven? Bad little demons have to be punish, you know..” The malicious voice whispered in Yunho’s ear, “Especially bad little demon who will get into other’s plan if they are allowed to live.. such as yourself.”

Yunho had never been so scared before. He struggled in an attempt to get free.

“A~ah.. none of that now, my little demon prince..” Chuckles.. “Sleep..”

A spell whispered and Yunho could feel his body getting heavier and his struggles weaken before darkness took over him.

Mama… Papa… help me..

***** ****** ******
Yunho woke up to whispers in a dark room, illuminate by flickering candle lights. Still groggy, the little demon didn’t know what’s going on at first. Then he remembers about his kidnapping and started struggling to get up from the very hard surface he’s been lying on. But before he could do so, both of his arms were grabbed. Yunho looked up in surprise. He didn’t notice there are other people in the room. He looked around to see that there are about 10 others around him. Although each one of them has some kind of robe on with sack like masks covering their faces, Yunho could see some of them have their white wings out – indicating that his captors are angels. Although… Yunho squints , trying to see clearly through the flickering lights – is that a demon leaning against the far wall? It looks like a female demon. And the only female that came with the demon group this year aside from Yunho’s mama is… Before Yunho could finish his thought however..

“Bring him here.” A sharp voice commanded.

The two angels on either side of Yunho started to drag the little demon forward towards the center of the room. Although he tried his hardest to break free, the two grown-ups are just too strong. They stopped in front of a very tall angel. Yunho couldn’t see his face but his two piercing inky dark eyes actually managed to paralyzed the little demon prince in fear. The man is holding a bowl filled with some kind of liquid in one hand and a sinister looking dagger on the other.

Yunho started crying. He didn’t want to at first because he was trying to be a brave demon just likes his papa. But the seven year old prince just about to reach his limits this time. He is so scared. He wants to go home.. He didn’t like it here in Heaven anymore. Everyone was so mean.. and the one little angel that makes it worthwhile hates him now. He misses his mama’s hugs and papa’s booming laugh. Will he ever see them again?

The tall man – apparently the group’s leader – nodded to one of the angel holding on to Yunho who then held Yunho’s left arm out. The leader then use the dagger to slash across the little demon’s palm and place the bleeding hand on top of the bowl for his blood to drip in. Yunho cried out in pain and tries harder to get away. That had earned him a hard backhand slap from the tall guy that makes his ears ring and head dizzy.

Few seconds later, the man decided that he had collected enough of the demon’s blood and let go of Yunho’s hand. He then raised the bowl above his head and said some words in a language that Yunho didn’t understand. The wind started to pick up and swirled around the room and the liquid in the bowl started bubbling. The numerous candles around started to flicker crazily and though it seems like they might go out at any second, still burning bravely.

Yunho can feel his heart pounding in his chest and never before he wishes more desperately to just curl up on his mother’s lap.

“Open his mouth for me.”

One of the angel forced Yunho to open his mouth and the leader then pour the potion into the struggling demon’s throat. Both of the angels at Yunho’s either side then let go of his arms.

Yunho fell forward coughing and gasping at the vile taste. For a few seconds, nothing seems to happen and Yunho felt a bit of relief at this. Suddenly he lurched forward, sharp white hot pain lanced through his back. Back arching in useless attempt to escape the pain, Yunho screamed. Everyone watched the writhing demon prince on the ground. The gut-wrenching scream from the little boy just drew blank stares all around. Blood starts pouring out from his back where his wings are. The little body starts to spasm violently.

****
In the Heaven’s Palace

Jaejoong was searching for Yunho when a sudden pain on his left hand nearly had the prince stumbled headfirst onto the gleaming white marble floor. He looked down only to see in horror that the marks on his left wrist is bleeding profusely.

“Your highness, are you alrig… Oh heavens, you’re bleeding!”

Jaejoong barely pay any attention to the servant who is fusiing over him. In his mind, he knew he has to find Yunho. He can feel that there is something wrong with his friend. But before he could push through the servant, another blinding white hot pain lanced up his arms and this time Jaejoong could feel as if part of his soul is wrenched from inside him. Unable to stand the pain anymore, the six year old angel succumbed to the approaching darkness.

Yunho!!..

****
Kingdom of Hell

The glass of water fell onto the floor and broke into hundreds of tiny pieces.

“Young Master Changmin! Are you alright? Don’t move okay. I will clean up the glass now..”

The 5 years old demon ignored the servant’s plead and walked towards the window as if in a trance. His right hand absentmindedly is rubbing his chest where his heart supposed to be. He looks out the window up at the black and red sky.

Yunho hyung….

**** ****** ***** *******
Ten pairs of eyes look down at the unconscious, blood covered little body on the floor.

“So it is done. He is a human now..” a female voice said softly.

Silence.

A pair of small, glossy black wings – cruelly torn from their owner – lay limp besides the little demon.. no, the little human boy.

“Are we going to kill him now?” The female asked the leader.

“No. I have better idea than to dirty our hands.” Again the cruel voice mutters some words in a foreign language and suddenly a dark ring of cloud appeared in the middle of the floor. “Throw him in there. The drop from here to the world below would kill him for sure. This way, there won’t even be any traces of him that could link it back to us lest somebody would investigate.”

One of the angel picked up the small body and after a moment of hesitation, threw the still unconscious boy into the cloud’s ring. Few muttered words later, the portal vanished.

None of them noticed that instead of plummeting down to his death, the former little demon was caught by a small puff of clouds that gently cradle the small body and drift downwards to bring him to his fate.

***** ***** *****

“Iria, you’re not supposed to interfere”
“I wasn’t interfering. I was merely giving them other options.”
“Fate would not be pleased. HE would not be pleased. We’re just here to observe, Iria..”
“Well, I’m in charge of destiny and I am tired of the same old endings. They will just have to learn to live with it.”
“ Why them? Why were they the chosen ones?”
Smile.
“…. Why not?”

**** **** ****
Human’s World (Gwangju, South Korea)

Lightning flashed and in the distance thunder roars angrily.
Five years old Park Yoochun huddled under the cover on his bed.

’It was just a thunder.. it was just a thunder…’ he mutters to himself, ’umma said that rain is good for crops’

Another angry roar from outside sky however made the little boy yelp and burrowed himself further under his blanket. At times like this, Yoochun really wish he has a brother. Being an only child, he has been jealous of other village boys that have older brother to play and take care of them. Yoochun bet that if he has a brother, he won’t be half as afraid of storms as he is currently. Because he knew his brother would protect him from the angry rain God…

Or at the very least, we can be scared together..he thought.

Suddenly there was a loud knock on the front door of their house. Yoochun get out of bed and curiously peered around the door of his room to look outside. His parents were both up and are approaching the front door with caution. When the “Who’s there?” question went unanswered, Mr and Mrs park looked at each other questioningly and after much hesitation, Mr Park opened the door…

Only to find a small boy lying unconscious on his doorstep; soaked to the bones.

“Oh My God.. Ye Jin, get some cloths. I think the boy is hurt. He is covered in blood.”

Mr Park carried the small body inside and carefully laid him down on the long bench in the front room. His wife quickly closed the door against the still raging storm outside and went to the kitchen to boil some water and get clean cloths to clean the boy with.
Yoochun came out of his room..

“Chunnie. What are you doing up sweetie? Go back to bed..”

But Yoochun just ignored his umma that just came out from the kithen and handing some dry towels to her husband who had taken it upon himself to rid the boy of his wet clothes – instead Yoochun just walked closer to this new boy and look at him in curiousity. He then grin widely and turn to his parents who are now wiping down the boy’s shivering body quickly – they were relieve to see that aside from two large gash down his back, the boy didn’t appear to be hurt elsewhere.

“Umma, Appa.. Gods had granted my wish!” Yoochun excitedly told his parents. Seeing theior confused faces, the happy five years old gestured excitedly towards the still unconscious boy on the bench..
“Don’t you see? Gods has sent me the brother I’ve always wanted!”

Leaving his dumbfounded parents behind, Yoochun ran back to his room happier than he ever had been. In his little heart, he had already claimed the boy outside as his own.. His very own, long-awaited for brother.

We’ll have lots of fun together.. We’ll look after each other forever.. I promise.
With this, the little boy happily surrendered himself to sweet dreams.

Outside, Heaven continues to cry…

A/N:

i) Okay.. that seemingly mumbo jumbo thing Junsu used to 'officiate' JaeHo 'marriage' is actually a real ancient Egyptian rites. I combined the invocation of Divine Beloved and rite of Hieros Gamos (Sacred Wedding). Now, if you asked me why on earth is EGYPTIAN rite doing in a supposedly KOREA setting fic.. honestly, I have no idea :p.

ii) Translation on tattoos on both Yunho and Jaejoong's wrist (thanks to riyaku *glomp*):
Yunho: Nae jashin. Nae maeumeun. Naeui Yunho-yah (My own. My Heart. My Yunho-yah.)
Jaejoong: Nae hana. Nae insaeng. Nae Jaejoongi (My one. My life. My Jaejoongie.)

iii) C/C is greatly appreciated. Just keep in mind that kind words nurtured.. Cruel ones and I'll f-locked the journal so fast, it'll make your head spin.. lol.. j.k :p.. seriously though, I'm anxious to know your thoughts on this particular chapter. Honestly, this was one of the hardest chapter I tried to write so far. After reading so many wonderful fics on these communities, I began to think why on earth would anyone read my fic?? It seriously sucks! -.-'''.. Ah~ I have no self-confidence left >.<..

i)There will be three settings in this fic: Underworld, Heaven's World and Human's World. Underworld and Heaven's world has their own Lord.. They are however not to be confused with Gods. Gods are much higher beings and just being observers in this fic. There are angels in Heaven though. And not all of them are nice either. Underworld isn't Hell as we know it. It was more of a place where every soul has to go to cleanse of their sins before going to their just reward: Heaven, Reborn or just free spirit.

ii) There are some things I think I should clear up first because I'm too lazy to explain them in the fic (>.<). Here in Heaven and Underworld; the angels and demon will grow normally like a human beings up until they’re 25 years old. Then the aging process will slow down until one can lives up to 7000 years old or so.. For example, say you're 500 years old but you will still looks like late twenties. And also, each couples will be blessed one child only as the heir.. And basically in this fic, everyone pretty much behaving like humans with normal feelings and attitude except with those cool powers and wings and stuffs.

CHAPTER 3 :
Return to Innocence.
a.k.a
Where Do Babies Come From?

“See.. Here is Uncle Shim’s house. He’s one of the souls’ guardians. His son Changmin is my best friend there. You would’ve liked him, Jae. He is so cool. He taught me to play lots of games… Anyway, from Changmin’s house if you turn left and go a bit further down the hill, you’ll come to the Satirical Town and here’s the…” Yunho continued drawing what to him the map of the Underworld while telling Jaejoong about all the demons and spirits living there.
Jaejoong pouted slightly. It seems that Yunho always speaks about this ‘Changmin’ person. Each time they were together, it will be..

’Changmin is really good at this..’,

‘I wonder what Changmin is doing now..’,

‘Hey, wanna play this new game Changmin taught me?’

And the one that Jaejoong really hates..

’Aa..I miss Changmin. I wish he was here..’.

Both the little prince and his friend are currently under a huge, shady tree in the Palace’s garden. Just beside the tree, there’s a small pond with various coloured fishes in it. Lying on their front with their heads bend together and wings are tucked safely like a cloak on their back - Yunho with his feet swaying to and fro and Jaejoong besides him listening attentively to his friend, both of them radiate innocence and close friendship to anyone who might be close enough to watch. It has been three weeks since the little demon’s arrived at the Palace with his parents and to everyone immense surprise, he and the previously known as Heaven’s Ice prince had quickly became attached to each other.

Although still receiving cold looks now and again, Yunho somehow had more or less managed to wriggle his way into the hearts of many angels especially from the servants. The little demon’s friendly nature and that he had miraculously succeeded in breaking Jaejoong out of his shell, had captured him special place in their hearts. The fact that he is also totally adorable and lovable doesn’t hurt either. All in all; just like back in his world, the little demon prince has most beings wrapped around his little finger and on top of that list is Jaejoong, the Heaven’s Prince himself… NOT that it’s not vice versa.

But all’s not bed of roses only for Yunho as one might think. Many of other Angels Lords’ children hated him for being so close to Jaejoong. They cannot understand why their little prince seems to adore the - what to them, inferior small demon so much and yet rejected their own pursue of his attention. Never mind that Yunho is the son of the Underworld Lord and thus makes him at the same level as Jaejoong. The fact that he is a demon makes him lower than dirt in their eyes. Not that they can really do anything about it seeing how Jaejoong is always by Yunho side and to make the Heaven’s Prince mad is definitely not an option… because… well, let’s just say that he wouldn’t have any qualm in using others as targets for his magic’s practices. But even with the threat of being a frog for a day or worse, there is still one little angel foolish enough not to give up in trying separating those two…

“Jaejoong, come play with me…”

Both angel and demon looked up from the drawing to see another angel’s child. With her fluffy strawberry blond hair tied up in a ponytail with pink ribbons and her pink and white gown, Yunho thought she looks like a cake or…

“You look like a bunny.” He blurted out.

“Excuse me?” she frowned.

Sitting up, Yunho smiled at the newcomer and repeat his remark,

“I said, you look like a bunny. A fluffy, white bunny.”

Tiffany gaped. This lowly demon compared her to an animal?

“How dare you to compare me to some kind of stupid animal. Who do you think you are?! You… you demon!”

Yunho blinked at her and tilted his head to the side confusingly,

“I meant it as a compliment. I think you’re cute like a bunny.”

Jaejoong, who up till that point was looking back and forth between those two, frowned at hearing the compliment from his friend to the other angel. He stood up suddenly and turned to face her.

“What is it that you want?” He asked quietly.

Tiffany promptly forgot the demon as she gave Jaejoong what she thought a sweet smile. ‘This was certainly an improvement,’ she thought happily, ‘usually he just ignores me.’

“Oh your highness, did you hear how that fat demon had insulted me?” she asked Jaejoong as she sniffed dramatically.

“Hey..! Who’re you calling fat?!” Yunho pouted from his still sitting position behind Jaejoong, and then his expression turned curious, “Why did you call Jae ‘Your Highness’, anyway? That sounds so… formal and bleerrgh..”

Tiffany turned to scoff at Yunho,

“That’s what we called etiquette, you uncivilized creature.”

Yunho makes a face and stick out his tongue at her. Before Tiffany could give him a piece of her mind however, Jaejoong cleared his throat,

“I asked, what do you want, Tiff?”

Tiffany once again turned to face her crush while Yunho pouted when he heard his Jaejoongie called the bunny like angel using a nickname.

“Oh yes… I came to ask you to play house with me.”

Yunho quickly jumped to his feet then and grabbed Jaejoong’s right hand,

“No, he can’t. We were busy until you came along and interrupted us.”

“Yes he can.” Tiffany grabbed Jaejoong’s other hand and tugged him towards her.

“He’s coming with me.” A tug to the right towards Yunho.

“No, Me!” A tug back to the left.

“He likes me better!”

“Hah! In your dreams!”

“No. In Yours!”

“He is going to marry me when we grow up!”

“No, he’s not!”

“No, I’m not.”

Both of the squabbling children paused at the quiet voice from the Heaven’s Prince. Jaejoong wriggled his hands out of Yunho and Tiffany’s death grips. Then he stood next to the little demon. Yunho smirked winningly at his nemesis, which really makes her angry.

“Well, he just didn’t want to admit it yet!” She fumed, “We’re going to get married and have a pretty baby, you’ll see!! Father says so!” After that outburst; she turned on her heels and stormed off, leaving the other two staring at her retreating back.

Couple of steps later however, came a shout to their left..

“DUCK!”

Jaejoong and Yunho watched in amazement as a round white ball flying out of nowhere, hit Tiffany right on the side of her head and knocked her into the pond. A small, cute angel boy came running towards them.

“Oops, sorry Tiff” He said nonchalantly while picking up his ball.

Tiffany – soaked, hair all messy (pink ribbons hanging pathetically for dear life - is that a frog on top of her head?? Yunho thought distractedly) – glare at the newcomer with a murderous look in her eyes.

“Xiah Junsu!! How dare you!!”

The angel boy, Junsu, pouted.
“Hey, I told you to duck didn’t I? It wasn’t my fault that you’re too slow.”

That was the last straw for the enraged girl. With a loud crazy like shriek she jumped out of the pond – hands stretched out, fully intend to strangle someone. All three boys screamed and run for their life.

****

Back in Jaejoong’s room

Yunho blew his bangs off his face and pouted,

“I don’t like Tiffany, Jae. She’s so full of it, don’t you think so? And I think she might be crazy too” His eyes widened as he remembered the dirty, wet girl chasing all three of them while screaming angrily. At long last, Jaejoong grabbed Yunho’s hand and directed them to his room to escape from the deranged girl. Lord knows what happened to Junsu though – Yunho send a prayer that the other angel boy were able to escape as well.

Jaejoong just shrugged and sighed. Yunho threw a glance at his friend.

“You wouldn’t, would you?”

Jaejoong raised an eyebrow at the little demon.

“Wouldn’t what?” he asked.

“Umm… You know… Marry her when we grow up?”

Jaejoong makes an ‘Eww!’ face and shook his head violently,

“Never in a million years!”

Yunho laughed and hugged the younger but slightly shorter angel.

“I’m glad.” He whispered.

For a moment, the two friends just stood there holding each other and enjoying the shared warmth. Then Yunho abruptly pulled away and looked at his friend, grinning and with gleams in his eyes.

“Say Jae, I had a brilliant idea!”

*********

(Meeting Hall)

Yul-ryeo jerked awake at the sharp nudge from Mago who sat beside him. He looked around the huge round table and blinked at the angel who’s standing about ten seats from him, presenting his report in great details.

‘For Lucifer’s sake, he is not finished yet? He’s been going on and on talking about the same thing for the past two hours! I can’t even remember what his main point was anymore.’ Yul-ryeo thought to himself. He looked towards all the others. Some of the angels have blank looks on their face indicating that though their physical self are here, their minds however are obviously thousand miles away. Other angels had admirably made some efforts to pay attention - though from the looks of their rapid blinking and watery eyes, it looks like a lost fight. As for the demons, most of them had already nodded off and one even is currently drooling all over his files.

Fighting off another yawn, Yul-ryeo resisted the urge to throw fireballs around just to stir things up a little. He glanced at his wife and found her threw him a warning look as if she knew what’s on his mind. He pouted, ‘If nothing’s going to happen soon, I swear I’m going to run out of here screaming my head off..’ he thought.

As if Gods above heard his wish, the massive door to the meeting hall suddenly burst open with a booming sound, startling everyone inside. Those who had fallen asleep were jerk back to the real world and now were looking around confusedly. All of them turned their heads towards the opened door just in time to see two little brown blurs passed them by.

“PAPA!!”

Yul-ryeo bends down and caught his running son before he crash into him. Behind Yunho; following at more moderate pace is his friend’s son, Jaejoong. The little angel stopped short in front of Yul-ryeo and bow his head a little in respect then continue watching his hyper friend with something akin to fondness in his eyes. Yul-ryeo nodded to him and turned his attention to his son who he had placed on his knees. The little demon is obviously excited by something, as he can’t stop squirming around. Yul-ryeo had to hold onto him so that he won’t fall off.

“Yun, stop moving around will you? Now tell me why are you here? You knew that there is Council Meeting in here, don’t you?” Mago asked her son gently.

Yunho gave his Mama an innocent smile,

“Oh, hi Mama! Sorry for barging in here like that. But Jae and I has something very important to ask Papa,”

He then turned towards Yul-ryeo,

“Papa, where do babies come from?”

A sudden silence fills the hall. Hwang-gung who was unfortunate enough to be drinking at the time, choked and gasped as the wine went down the wrong tube. So-Hee patted her husband’s back absentmindedly as she watches in interest how her friend would handle the awkward situation.

Mago’s face turned first red then white then red again. She didn’t know what to think. She knew this day would come… But isn’t Yunho a bit too young to think about this sorts of thing? And, why now? Why here? Why… Mago shook her head, now is not the time to get hysterical. As a mother, she’ll have to take the responsibility. However, before she could open her mouth, Yul-ryeo raised his hand to her indicating that he will handle this by himself.

Yul-ryeo smiled down to his son;

“Yun, why do you want to know where babies come from?”

“Oh you see, this morning Jae and I were sitting under our favourite tree in the garden.. You know, the one that has a pond near it. And there are lots of colourful fishes in the pond and they’re all so friendly and pretty. If you dip a finger inside then they’ll come and nibble but it doesn’t hurt one little bit and they’re so cute and… Papa? Can we please have a fishpond with lots of colourful fishes in it when we go back home? I would so dearly like if….”

Yul-ryeo sighed, his son is really adorable but to get a full story out of the little demon is like pulling teeth. He tends to babble completely off topic.

“Yun, yes… We’ll see about the fishpond later ok? Now Papa have a very important meeting so if you didn’t get to the point soon, I’m not going to help you.”

Yunho grinned sheepishly at his Papa.

“I’m sorry.. Anyway, here I was telling Jae about the Underworld and all my friends there and then out of nowhere, came another little angel. She was wearing a white and pink gown and her hairs are all curly and have pink ribbons all over them. So I told her that she looks cute like a bunny rabbit and she went all angry though I honestly meant it as a compliment. You know how I love fluffy bunnies, don’t you Papa? They’re like my moistest favorite animals in the universe… Next to the cute Cereberus’ puppies and yellow duckies and…”

“Yunho…” Yul-ryeo warned sternly.

“Oops.. sorry.. Like I was saying, she went absolutely mad start calling me names. She really was a horrid angel, Papa.. And very rude too! Jae didn’t like her either, right?” Yunho looked at his silent friend for confirmation. At his nod, Yunho smiled and looked at Yul-ryeo once more.

“See! Jae didn’t like her at all. And you know what, she said that she’s going to marry him when we grow up and have his baby. I couldn’t let her do that. I can’t imagine that horrid and rude angel staying here with Jaejoongie. She wouldn’t let me come and play with him anymore… And that’s not fair. Plus Jae said that he didn’t want to marry her anyway. You should’ve see her temper tantrums after that..”

“O..kay… But what does all this have to do with your question earlier?.” Yul-ryeo asked his hyper son confusingly.

“Oh that… isn’t it obvious? Since I didn’t like that stupid Tiffany… that’s her name, by the way,” Yunho paused, as there was a choking sound somewhere along the table. He shrugged and continues, “Anyway, I didn’t like her either. But Jae really likes me and he’s my bestest best friend in the whole world.. So I came up with a brilliant plan!” he beamed at his Papa.

With a sense foreboding, Yul-ryeo asked his son,

“And… that was..?”

“Why, for Jae to marry me when we grow up of course! And we want to know where babies come from so that we can book a baby all of our own before that horrible Tiffany does. So Papa, where do babies come from?”

Everybody was stunned to say the least. Mago felt like a thousand years had been taken from her life. So-Hee just blinked at the thought of her newly acquired seven years old going-to-be son-in-law. Hwang-gung is speechless. He looked at his son who’s standing quietly in front of Yul-ryeo. How innocent he looked… How sweet and young… How…

Orpheus could feel a headache coming T-T.

All the demons and angels waited to see how Yul-ryeo would answer his son’s question. This has certainly turned out to be the most interesting meeting that they’ve ever had.

Yul-ryeo grinned..

“Well you see,” he paused then leaned down to look deep into Yunho’s eyes, “When Mama and I were alone together and there’s nothing else to do and no one’s around..” He paused again, enjoying the enraged gasps that went around the room…

At least from the angels’ side… the demons are mostly grinning and snickering. Mago is thinking of strangling her husband right there and then. What was he doing, wanting to corrupt their young son’s mind?! Not to mention Hwang-gung and So-Hee’s kid is here too..

Yul-ryeo continued,

“Well when we were in that situation, we wrote a letter to Cupid.”

The said Lord of Love spluttered out to hear his name mentioned. Everyone else, especially Mago looks at Yul-ryeo questioningly. All of them are wondering what he’s driving at.

“In that letter, we wrote everything we want in our baby. Sometimes people get what they asked for… but sometimes they don’t.”

Yunho looked up at his Papa.

“How about you, Papa? Did you and Mama get what you asked for?” He asked shyly.

Yul-ryeo smiled and patted his son’s head,

“Oh we got so much more than we asked for… We got you..”

Yunho turned red, “Oh.” He said in a small voice. He then slid down his father’s lap and went to hold his friend’s hand. He turned to Yul-ryeo and smiled at him brightly.

“So that is all we have to do? Write a letter to Cupid?”

Yul-ryeo nodded, amused.

The little demon giggled and starts tugging his friend to the door. He called over his shoulder,

“Bye Papa, Mama. We’re going to write that letter now. Bye..!”

Then halfway there, he suddenly stopped and ran back to Yul-ryeo, wrapping his little chubby hands around his papa’s neck and whispered;

“Thanks Papa. I love you.”

He then turned towards Mago and did the same thing.

So-Hee watched all this with misty eyes. ‘Yul hyung and Mago are so lucky.’ She thought, ‘Yunho is such an affectionate kid..’ Then she felt a tug on her own skirt. Looking down, she was surprise to see Jaejoong holding out his hands to be hug.

Heart clenched with overflowing love, So-Hee leaned down and hugged her son tightly. She then kissed his cheeks before letting him go to hug his Daddy.

‘Yes, Mago and Yul-ryeo hyung are lucky.. But I’m lucky too. I have my very own special baby here.’ So-Hee thought as she fondly watched both Jaejoong and Yunho went out the door, holding hands and giggling..

Neither notices the dark stare burning at their backs.

***************
‘This is dangerous. HE is too dangerous.. He will be an obstacle towards my plan. That little demon must be rid of..’

With that dark thought, a cruel smile formed on the sinister face as the owner began to construct a plan…

Chapter: Chapter 2
Disclaimer : Nope, these guys aren't mine. I just borrowed them for a while. I'll return them back unharmed.. honest..*crossed fingers behind*

Note:
i)There will be three settings in this fic: Underworld, Heaven's World and Human's World. Underworld and Heaven's world has their own Lord.. They are however not to be confused with Gods.

And basically in this fic, everyone pretty much behaving like humans with normal feelings and attitude except with those cool powers and wings and stuffs. And the stuff bout angels have 9 levels thingie?? I read it in the dictionary.. ^__^

ii)On some of the names used in this chapter:
Mrs. Danus: Taken from the 3 wicked Danaus sisters who killed their husbands on their wedding nights. *shudders*.. Black widow fetish perhaps?? O.O. Anyway in this fic however, Mrs. Danus is a demoness who's also Yul-ryeo and Mago’s housekeeper. Grandmotherly type with extremely soft spot on Yunho.
Charon: It's the name of the ferryman whose job to row the spirit across the Styx river to Underworld. In this fic, he's just another tortured spirit.
Sisyphus: Evil King that'd been punished by having to push a big stone up a steep hill over n over again. In this fic?? He has the same job. ^__^
Argus and Juno: They're gods actually. Juno was in fact the wife of Jupiter.. But I don't like her much because she's too jealous. So I put her in hell in this story. Argus was her servant or something.
Herod: King of Judaea and he's so evil that he even ordered the Massacre of the Innocents (now THAT was one seriously disturbed guy >.<). His role in this fic is still undecideable (haha, new word!! :p).. Should he be the true villain? Or should there be someone else?? Hmm.. Anyhoo, He's the River' Lord in this..
Tiffany: Taken from a SNSD member’s name *shrugged*. I made her Herod's beloved daughter and in love with Jaejoong.. Well, not yet since they're still children in this chap.. :p.

CHAPTER 2

2nd Meeting
a.k.a.
Would you take my hand?

“Mago, just exactly what is Yunho doing? Hwang-gung and So-Hee had been expecting us over 15 minutes ago.” Yul-ryeo asked exasperatedly to his wife who had just finished giving last minute instruction to their head maid. He pouted when his question was ignored by Mago who by then immediately started on another explanation on what to do when they’re not there.

Yul-ryeo and his family are preparing to go for the once-a-decade Lords Council Meeting, plus taking the chance to meet their long-time friends in Heaven’s World – currently though they’re running a bit late…

‘Of course, at this rate we’re lucky to arrive there before Judgement Day at all,’ Yul-ryeo thought, ‘What in the Purgatory IS Yunho doing? The servants already pack his clothes. We’re only staying there for a month, for Hades’ sake. And Mago, that’s the 5th time I heard she told Mrs. Danus to monitor the servants so they do not wash our bed sheets with cold water because it was made from purest hell worms’ silk, so fussy… Humph, like mother, like son.’

He sighed, puffing up his cheeks. At long last, he decided to rescue Mrs. Danus from Mago. Yul-ryeo could practically see that poor demon servant’s head is spinning with all the instructions given over and over again by his wife. He walked towards them and hug Mago’s waist. She stopped in mid sentence and looked up at him questioningly. He dropped a little kiss on her pert button nose.

“Mago sweetie, I’m sure Mrs. Danus is perfectly capable of taking care of the house while we’re gone. After all she has been with our family for more than 2000 years now and we’ve never been given any doubt of her capabilities before, have we?” Yul-ryeo smiled at their long time housekeeper whose cheeks now supporting a slight pink color. He winked at her, “I’m sorry Mrs. Danus. It seems that my wife is a tad bit unused to leave the palace for more than three days. We did realize however that we could trust you to keep things running smoothly around here; just that Mago had more difficulty in accepting the fact. After all, didn’t she do this every time we go somewhere?” The last bit Yul-ryeo had lean forward to stage whisper to Mrs. Danus.

At her husband teasing tone, Mago nudged hard at his ribs and threw him a mock glare then turned to smile apologetically to their housekeeper who’s watching the couple amusingly.

“I’m really sorry Mrs. Danus. It’s not that I didn’t trust you. I guess I am a bit…”

“…Bossy..” Yul-ryeo piped in from beside her, which earned him a swift kick on the shin by his wife…“Ouch! Mago… that hurts..” he whined, hopping on one foot.

Mago smirked at her husband and stuck out her tongue at him, “Well, it serves you right!”

Yul-ryeo pouted, “What? I was just telling the truth.”

Mago raised her eyebrows, “Do you WANT another kick?” She asked sweetly.
Seeing her husband raised hands while cautiously backing away a step; Mago huffed, satisfied. She then turned back to Mrs. Danus. The older demoness’s shoulders are shaking in silent laughter watching her Master and Mistress’s antics. However, she tried to keep a straight face when Mago looked at her.

Mago cleared her throat, “Anyway, like I was saying. I do trust your management’s skill , Mrs. Danus. It’s just I tend to have this concern part of me that’s… well.. Concerned.” Yul-ryeo snorted at this point and Mago turned to glare at him. He just smiled innocently. She rolled her eyes at him.

Mrs. Danus shook her head, smiling fondly. Master Yul-ryeo and his wife truly is a perfect couple. Both are still so in love with each other after many years of marriage and it shows in every gesture. It’s endearing to see the most powerful demon in Underworld so besotted with his wife.

The best thing is that neither Yul-ryeo nor Mago has ever been cruel to those who served under them. Unlike all the previous Underworld Lords, both of them never show that they are proud of their higher status even though they have the right to do so. Instead, they treat others like their equals regardless whether it’s a demon lord or any lesser demon. They are even nice to those supposedly punished human’s souls. Why, just last week both of them had invited Charon, Sisyphus, Argus and Juno for a cup of tea and relieved them of their punishment for the evening.

Of course, there were some of the other demon lords who questioned Yl-ryeo’s way. They can’t understand how their leader can be so casual and friendly. It was so… un-demon like. Thus they doubt of his capabilities to rule the Underworld. Coupled with the fact of the widely known Yul-ryeo’s close friendship with the Hwang-gung the Heaven’s Lord, many wondered just how loyal Yul-ryeo really is to the Underworld. This results in rebellions that of course Yul-ryeo and his followers quickly demolished. The fact that Yul-ryeo almost single-handedly defeated those who opposed him, earned him a grudging respect from those rebellious Demon Lords.

However, the real admiration begins after this one incident where a demon had break into the palace and tried to kidnap Yunho and use him to blackmail Yul-ryeo into stepping down the throne. They caught the demon before he could do any harm of course, but that was only because Mago had suddenly decided to stop by the nursery before she goes to bed. Her scream at seeing a sinister looking demon bending over her baby was loud enough to wake up the whole palace.

That was the first and what she hope, will also be the last time Mrs. Danus ever saw the usually gentle Lord Yul-ryeo got truly angry. The demon was punished in public, in front of all the Demon Lords, servants and commoners. Yul-ryeo himself delivered the punishment. Even now whenever she thinks about that day, she can still hear the tortured demon’s screams and plead for mercy.
He got none.
The worse thing though, was the look on Yul-ryeo’s face after he was through with the criminal. The cold, blank expression with his eyes turned all black and reflected pure evil that it looks like the Demon’s God, Raenef Himself was inside Yul-ryeo’s body. As he looked around – strips of other demon’s skin and bits of flesh scattered around his feet - eyes piercing straight to the core of everyone, he only said one thing:

“Don’t. Ever. Make me angry.”

The crowd was so silent that you could almost hear the black blood dripping from Yul-ryeo’s talons. Everybody went back to their place in silence after that.
The next morning, all the previously rebellious Demon Lords had sent Yul-ryeo formal apology and pledged their loyalty to him. Mrs. Danus guessed they finally saw what makes Yul-ryeo the true Underworld’s Lord.

After that, life is pretty much peaceful around them. Well, as peaceful as it could ever be in Underworld that is. Under Yul-ryeo’s just ruling; demons, spirits and souls had learn to harmonize with each other. Mago had also played a part in the effort to unite all of them. More often than not, one would find her strolling around the Underworld’s realm with Yunho in hand. Stopping now and then to chat with other demons or demoness; gives encouragement to the punished souls, maybe invite them to the castle for teas or dinner, asking how they fared and basically just showing them that she really care for their well-being. She also makes sure that Yunho is familiar with the realm and its dwellings. She wants him to play with other demon’s children and to be polite to the elders.

Yunho... Mrs. Danus can feel her heart swelled with love at the thought of her Master and Mistress only child. The adorably cute seven years old seems to inherit his Papa’s playful nature and his Mama’s gentleness. He also inherits their kind hearts and stubbornness. While he has a smile like (never thought she’ll say this as a compliment) an angel that can brighten up any bleak day, the boy is also very mischievously playful and simply loves to talk (Mago swears that he got this from Yul-ryeo’s side of the family). Incredibly friendly, he is the apple candy of every demon and spirit’s eyes.

CRASH!!!

The sound of something heavy crashed startled Mrs. Danus out of her musing and stopped Yul-ryeo and Mago’s squabbling. They rushed to the staircase where the sound came from. There at the bottom of the stairs lay a huge suitcase which had burst open when it hit the bottom, making it overflowed contents namely toys; spilled out. Yul-ryeo blinked as a big rubber ball bounced and rolled to rest lightly at his feet. Mago sighed and pinched lightly at her nose bridge.

“Oops..”

At the sound of the small voice, the three demons turned their head up. Standing at the middle of the stairs is a chubby and cute small demon boy whose face radiated guilty expression. Wide eyes widened to an almost impossible size as they took in the mess below.

Yunho bit his lower lip with a cute frown on his face. His toys are all over the place! And to think he had spend a long time selecting and packing them and not to mention he had to jumped on the bag’s lid to get it to close. All that effort and he just had to trip on the carpet, hadn’t he? He peeked under his long bangs to his parents. Both had blank face…

‘Uh..oh..’ he thought. Yunho then pouted. It’s not his fault that the carpet tripped him up. Maybe there is a really naughty spirit that loves to trip innocent people on their own carpet. Making up his mind to catch the not-very-nice spirit later and give it to Papa for spanking, Yunho slowly walks down the stairs to stand in front of his parents. Before any of them could open their mouth however, he quickly apologized…

“I’m sorry. I tripped on the carpet and I honestly don’t know why that naughty spirit did it coz I’ve really been a good boy this week as Papa told me I have to be extra good or else you and Mama won’t bring me to Heaven and I really really really REALLY want to go there to see all the pretty angels that Mama told me about and I want to make lotsa friends there especially Jaejoong and Mama said that he liked me when we’re still babies so I want to know whether he still likes me and…”

At this point Yunho paused to take a breath. Yul-ryeo and Mago blinked at their hyper and extremely talkative son. He lost them somewhere around something about a… a naughty spirit?
Just as he about to launch into another babble fest, Yul-ryeo quickly covered his son’s mouth.

“Er, it’s okay Yunnie. No need to explain anymore.”

Yunho just blinked innocently at his father.

“Yun sweetie, do you really want to bring this much toys? Don’t you think it’s a bit too much?” Mago asked the boy gently.

Yunho shrugged his father’s hand from his mouth.

“But Mama, you said I could bring some toys with me.”

“Well yes… But by ‘some’, I meant 3 or 4 small toys. Not half of your nursery...” Mago gestured at the mess around them, “See, even the bag was overload.”

The little demon prince looked down to his feet and mumbled..

“But I want to share my toys with Jaejoong. Changmin said that Heaven’s people doesn’t like us demons very much,” he paused, biting his lips.. “I thought that if I can share my toys with Jaejoong, maybe it’ll make him likes me a little better,” Yunho then looked up to his Mama’s eyes, “I want him to like me, Mama. I don’t know why, but I feel like I need for him to like me.”

Yul-ryeo and Mago was quite surprised to see their son’s serious expression. It was different from his usual smiling face. Mago sighed, this called for a mother’s touch.
Kneeling in front of her son, she smiled at him softly.

“Sweetheart, I understand what you’re trying to say. However, it’s still wrong for you to bribe someone to like you...” She held up a hand to stop his protest, “Now, I know you didn’t mean it that way. You just want to be his friend. But Yunnie, we can’t force someone to be our friend. You can’t buy friendship, sweetie. That kind of bond doesn’t last. If they really like you, they will be your friend regardless of who or what you are or how many toys you have or even if you don’t have any at all. They’ll like you for you and that’s it, alright?”
At Yunho’s nod, Mago smiled. “That’s my boy.” Standing up, she kissed on top of his head and turned to her husband. He is smiling at them both.

“Now I remember what makes me so crazy about you,” Yul-ryeo said to his wife, “You’re so gentle and wise.”

Mago smirked, “Yes, It’s a wonder that how opposites DO attract, isn’t it my lord?”

“Yea..uh.. Hey!” Yul-ryeo pouted, “What do you mean by that? I’m gentle and wise too!”

Mago laughed and stands on her tiptoes to peck her pouting husband’s on the lips, “Keep telling yourself that, honey. Maybe it’ll come true one day..” she teased.

Yul-ryeo growled, grabbing his wife’s waist - fully intended to kiss her senseless. Suddenly he felt tugging on his cloak. Both Yul-ryeo and Mago looked down to see their son’s scowling littleface.

“Papa, Mama. No icky stuffs in front of me!”

His papa laughed and hefted Yunho into his arms and started to swing him around making the little demon squealed in delight and at the same time scared that his papa might drop him. Mago just smiled and shook her head and turned to Mrs. Danus.

“Mrs. Danus, I’m sorry but could you please repack some of these toys into maybe a smaller bag please? We’ll bring just half of it only,” she turned back to father and son who are currently enjoying themselves playing toss-Yunnie-as-high-as-possible. “Yun! Come here and help Mrs. Danus to repack your toys.. And please be quick as we’re late enough as it is.”

“Ok Mama,” the giggling demon boy then ran over to the elder demoness and start tugging on her hands, “Come, Mrs. Danus. We have to hurry so I can meet my new friends.”

***** ***** ***** *****

At The Heaven’s Palace.

So-Hee knocked on her son’s bedroom door.

“Jae, Mummy’s here. I’m coming in alright?”

Hearing no reply, she took it as OK and enters her son’s bedroom. She looked around the spotlessly clean room. Not even one single thing is misplaced. All are on perfect order. The toys are neatly arranged and stacked on one side of the room; the books are all in the wall shelves in alphabetical order. The only thing that showed that this is a child’s room is a worn baby devil’s doll on the huge fluffy bed. The room’s six year old owner is currently sitting at the writing desk on the opposite side of the bed, drawing a picture. His face is drawn in total concentration too intense to be found on small children. It looks like he took on the drawing to be more like a task that has to be completed rather than just an activity to be enjoyed with. He pays no attention whatsoever to the new presence in his room.

So-Hee sighed and went to her son.

“Hi there baby. What’re you doing? You’re so quiet that I almost didn’t see you in here.”

Silent.
So-Hee peered over the little angel’s shoulder to see what the drawing is all about. She gasped.. Jaejoong is drawing the heaven’s palace itself and he had capture it perfectly down to every intricate designs sculptured into the outer walls. It was perfect that it almost look real. Guess her little son is quite an artist.
Just another thing to be added to his many talents.

Jaejoong excels in everything he put his mind into. He began to speak when he was 8 month old; almost immediately turned his interest to read and learnt how to write. And by the time he was two, he’d already read all the books in the palace. He’s the fastest flyer among his peers and even exceeded some of the older angels’ children. He’s better at magic’s wielding and incantations than those thrice his age. He has picture perfect memory and to top it all, he is a very good looking kid. Well; maybe six years old is too young to be classify as good looking, So-Hee mused. But from what she can see now, her son really have the potential to be a real heartbreaker when he grows up.

Problem was, Jaejoong is a bit antisocial. He doesn’t make friends with other little angels. He doesn’t want to makes friends. It’s not that he’s rude to them or anything. He just ignores them whenever they talk to him. At first, So-Hee and Hwang-gung were afraid that their son is too proud of his status and that he looks down on other children.
But then, he’s not cruel or being mean to any them. He is especially kind to those lesser angel’s children. So-Hee had seen him sharing his toys and quietly tolerate their Cook’s younger grandchild; it was just those other Lords’ little angels that he doesn’t want to do anything with; though not all, just some of them. Others, he sort of okay with... And he wasn’t being rude, when they came to the palace with their parents and start playing with his toys, Jaejoong doesn’t say anything or even looks angry. He just let them be and go someplace else to find other things to do. The weird thing is; the other children always sought after his attention, following him around and try to get him to notice them.

Once, So-Hee had asked her son why he ignored some the little angels. He looked at her directly in the eyes and simply said;

“They don’t like me because of who I am, but what I am. I don’t need friends like that.”

So-Hee and Hwang-gung were surprised and at the same time relieved of their son level of maturity and ability to differentiate supercilious beings. They’re also a bit sad at how cynical he is at such a young age where trust should come easily.

“Is there anything I can help you with, Mummy?”

At the quiet voice, So-Hee blinked herself back to the present. She looked down at Jaejoong’s upturned blank and yet innocent and sweet face and smiled down at him. She ruffled his caramel brown hair.

“Nothing sweetie. Just that, I came to remind you to get ready and hurry down. We’re going to greet Uncle Yul-ryeo and his family. Remember what I told you about them? Yul is the Underworld ruler and he’s daddy’s best friend. Mago, his wife is my best friend. And they have a son, Yunho who is older than you by few months. You’ve met him before when both of you were still babies. Maybe you can be friend with him? He’ll be quite alone since none of other demon lords seem to bring their families. I’m sure he’ll feel quite shy among other angels here…”

…. ‘Especially considering most of angels still doesn’t trust the demons and vice versa. God, I hope none of those children inherit their parents’ close-mindedness.’ So-Hee added silently.

Jaejoong just blinked at his Mummy and shrugged. He hopped off the chair and walked towards the door.

“I’m ready.”

So-Hee sighed, that shrug could very well meant from ‘Yes, I’ll try to be nice to the boy’ to ‘I honestly don’t care about anything so don’t bother to ask me to do so or I’ll get piss off’. Shaking her head and offered a silent prayer for a little luck and patience, she followed her son out the door.

***********

“Now remember what I told you. Manners are important and don’t be so straightforward in voicing your thought. Here aren’t like back home, okay? People here might feel insulted if you’re not careful of what you’re saying. Plus you have to tell us before you go anywhere outside. Absolutely no curious sniffing around, okay?”

“Uh..huh..”

Mago sighed looking at the wide-eyed little demon that’s currently looking around him in wonder, trying to take everything in at once. Listening to his Mama is the last thing on his mind right now.

Usually Yul-ryeo and Mago transported directly to the Heaven’s Palace but since this is Yunho’s first time here (the first one didn’t count as he was too little to remember anything), they decided to take a walk through the town first. After all, they’ll probably be too busy after this to accompany him. They had already send the servants ahead with their stuffs and now only have a few demons’ guards with them.

“Yunnie, did you hear what I was saying?” Mago asked her son.

No answer.
Yunho is awe-struck by the scene around him. Everything was so… White… and bright… and huge too, he noted - seeing the fifth huge mansion after arriving and now walking down the white cobbled street for two minutes. And the people here with those white-feathered wings behind them, were all so pretty. Mama told him before that they’re called angels and were usually divided into nine orders: seraphim, cherubim, thrones, dominions, virtues, powers, principalities and just plain angels. Not that he has any ideas what any of those mean. They still haven’t covered it yet in his lesson.
Though Mama had warned him about the animosity between Angels and Demons, Yunho didn’t really take her seriously. After all, people this pretty must be nice… That is until he noticed the cold looks thrown their way by almost all of them pretty angels around them. He caught the eyes of one of the small young angel child that looks to be the same age as him. He gave the boy a wide smile like he always do but before the boy could tentatively return the smile; he was shielded by his mother’s large wing from behind. Startled, Yunho look up at the older angel and found that the latter glaring at him. It was a look of pure hatred and scorned that it makes him shivered and unconsciously pressed closer to his own Mama. His small black wings half covered his little body from the cold glare.

Mago looked down at her son and hugged him closer.

“Cold?” She asked him softly.

Yunho looked up to his Mama’s gentle face. He shook his head. After a while he tugged on her dress.

“Mama, can we go to the palace now? I’m tired.” He looked up pleadingly at her.

Mago raised her eyebrows. Her son is behaving strangely. He’s too quiet. She didn’t even think the word ‘tired’ even existed in Yunho’s vocabulary before. But she didn’t say anything just nodded and patted his head. Mago called out to her husband who’s walking in front of them.

“Yul, I think we better go to Hwang-gung’s palace now. Yunnie’s tired and I myself would like to rest awhile before that welcoming party tonight.”

Yul-ryeo turned to his family, kneeled in front of his son and hefted him into his arms. Yunho hugged his Papa’s neck and laid his head on Yul-ryeo’s shoulder.

Confused by the normally hyper boy’s action, Yul-ryeo looked at Mago questioningly. She just mouthed ‘Later’ to him. Shrugging, Yul-ryeo turned to the head demon’s guard behind them and instruct them to head for the palace immediately. Shifting to carry his son on one arm, Yul-ryeo grasped Mago’s hand with another and teleported to the Palace.

*************
“So-Hee, they’re here.”

At her husband’s deep voice, So-Hee turned from the group of female seraphim she’d been having polite conversation with. Sighing in relief quietly, she went to his side. She knew who exactly this ‘they’ him talking about.

‘It’s about time Mago and Yul hyung arrived,’ So-Hee thought, ‘I was about to go crazy with all that group’s yammering and gossiping around. Don’t they have anything better to do than just sit there and sneered at others who they considered beneath their status? Humph! Wait ‘til they met Mago, she’ll put them in their place in no time!’

So-Hee giggled a little at the thought of her bold, no-nonsense-tolerate-here friend meeting with all those arrogant airheads. ‘They won’t know what hit them..’ She thought gleefully.

Hwang-gung looked down questioningly at his giggling wife. She just blinked innocently back at him. He then just shook his head, deciding that maybe he is better off not knowing what’s going on in that pretty head of her. Lord knows that So-Hee has quite a mischievous streak in her. A trait that their son obviously hasn’t inherit - which a fact that Hwang-gung really thankful for.

However, Hwang-gung is a bit concerned by the little angel prince’s ‘loner’ behaviour. But since Jaejoong excels in everything else - even surpassing those several years his seniors, Hwang-gung can’t really complaint and had to admit that he does feel proud to have such an intelligent son and what seem to be a worthy heir. Sometimes though, he couldn’t help but wonder that maybe he had put too much pressure on his only child.

“There they are! Is that Yunho that Yul hyung carrying? Oh, he looks so cute… Mago, over here!!”

Smiling at his wife excited squeal, Hwang-gung watched as his long-time friend came towards them with his family. Both he and Mago are smiling widely in greeting. Then the little demon in Yul-ryeo’s arm squirmed around, obviously telling his father to put him down. Once on his feet, he ran to hide behind his mother’s skirt.

“Hello So-Hee, Hwang-gung. Sorry we’re late… Again.” Mago greeted them. So-Hee stepped forward and gave Mago a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

“It’s okay. We’re used to it actually.” So-Hee teased.

Yul-ryeo clapped Hwang-gung behind his back.

“Hello ol’ friend. You look fine. I trust everything went well here?”

Hwang-gung smiled,

“Well, not everything but it could’ve been worse. You look great too by the way…”

As the adults laughed and teased with each other, Yunho who was peeking around his Mama’s skirt noticed that there’s a little angel standing quietly beside the pretty lady who’d just hugged his Mama.

‘Is that Jaejoong?’ he wondered, ‘He’s cute… But he looks so serious and unfriendly. Maybe he doesn’t like I’m coming here too?..’
Upset, the adorable demon looked down to his feet. He was starting to feel unwelcome in the supposedly beautiful world. To the little demon - who accustomed to welcoming smiles wherever he goes, used to having all demons spirits and souls alike dote on and adore him, used to friendly faces and merry laughter - Heaven as Yunho got to know in only a few hours time is indeed a cold place. He’s getting homesick. Sniffling a bit, he looked up to tell Mama that he wanted to go home now… Only to find another’s face directly in front of his own, staring straight at him.
It was that cute little angel.

Gasping, Yunho jerked back a little and stared curiously back. They’re about the same height and as the other angel keep staring straight into his eyes; Yunho can feel himself turning red though he honestly didn’t know why. Absentmindedly, he noticed how a few strands of the angel’s straight brown hair trailed across his smooth, slightly chubby cheeks. He also noticed how those wide, intense eyes that seem so unfriendly and cold before didn’t look that way at all. They’re intense, yes… But more like curious-intense, like the angel boy is studying Yunho just by looking at him. The cute face is serious but the slight natural upturned corners of the angel’s lips indicate a yet-still-has-not-been discovered sense of humor. Yunho decided that he like this little angel.

… ‘Though this silent bit is quite unnerving’ he thought, shifting slightly on his feet.

****************

Jaejoong wasn’t really expecting anything when his Mummy told him about her best friend and her family. He just registered that he was supposed to call the friend ‘Aunt Mago, ‘Uncle Yul’ and their son’s name is Yunho. Mummy asked him to make friend with the little demon…
He was thinking maybe Mummy had lost it.

Though he has to admit that he is a bit curious about the other family - he’d never meet a real demon before. Only heard about them from the servants’ gossips or other little angels talk… though they do tend to exaggerate. At one time; he overheard one of the seraphim’ lord said that how demons are all disgraceful and cannot be trusted and what a fool Hwang-gung is to be so close to the Underworld’ Lord himself. However, when that particular seraph noticed that Jaejoong was standing nearby, he quickly changed his tune and said of course HE however admired Hwang-gung for his noble quest to improve the angels and demons relationship and how he always thought that Hwang-gung is a great Heaven’s Lord. Jaejoong just stared at him continually, making him uneasy. At last when he couldn’t bear the child’s unwavering gaze anymore, he suggested to his companions to have a drink someplace else.

Young though he is, Jaejoong understands too well this thing called hypocrisy. He recognized the seraph that had talk behind his Daddy’s back. His name is Herod and he’s the River’ Lord. He always comes to the palace for quite unknown reasons and though Daddy is always polite to him, it’s obvious to Jaejoong that he is getting tired of the suck-up jerk. Jaejoong also knew Herod’s daughter, Tiffany who’s the same age as himself and every bit as annoying as her father is. Spoiled to the point of being a brat, she always chase after Jaejoong demanding that he plays with her till there are times when the usually calm and reserve angel prince felt like he could cheerfully push her into one of the numerous pond around the palace. Used of getting her own way, Tiffany had decided that the Heaven’s Prince is to be her playmate and that’s that. This of course didn’t sit very well with the little prince… At all!

Jaejoong never thought that he needed anybody – excluding his parents. Not because he is too proud or anything. It’s just that he can’t stand some of those young little angels’ lords come frolicking around him, urging him to be their friend, looking up to him even though sometimes he was a bit rude to them. Some are not so bad though - He likes them enough to tolerate their chattering day by day, even sometimes playing quietly with them all. While others, he just tend to ignores … But he never feels like he ever needs anyone…

…. That is, until now…

Jaejoong was standing at the side looking curiously at the beautiful dark haired lady that Mummy hugged and the handsome tall man with cheerful smile clapped Daddy’s back. Suddenly from behind the lady’s skirt, a small chubby face peeked out. It was only a glimpse he got of the little demon boy as the face promptly hide behind his mother’s skirt once again. The first thing that crossed Jaejoong’s mind was…
‘Wow..’
Feeling his heart beats a little faster and wondering why, he quickly walked around to the adults’ backs and came face to face with the little demon.

The demon was looking down at his feet, looking dejected that for some unknown reason Jaejoong hated seeing. The demon then looked up and stepped back in surprise at the sudden closeness of their position. Jaejoong just stared at him, transfixed.

‘This is a demon?’ he thought disbelievingly, ‘He looks prettier than any angels I knew.’
He took in the sight of the little demon. The longish dark chocolate hair framing the chubby face looks so soft, the reddish tint on the cheeks, the cute slightly slitted chocolate brown eyes that are blinking curiously back at him, the rose pink lips that are now pouting unconsciously.

The demon then shifted briefly, bringing Jaejoong back to reality. He realized that he’d been staring and the other must have started to feel uneasy. But he couldn’t help it, there’s just something about the other kid that he just can’t figure out. Just something… familiar.. Jaejoong felt oddly breathless, like he’s been waiting for this moment since forever.

The demon boy then offered him a tentative smile,

“Hi. I’m Yunho… You’re Jaejoong, aren’t you?”

At his nod, Yunho’s smile went up a notch,

“Oh, Mama told me about you. Did you know that we’ve met when we’re still babies and Mama said that you seem to really like me then, though Aunt So-Hee said that you’re a really cranky baby but you’ve never cried once when we’re together and I wished that we could’ve come back whole lot more after that but Papa had been so busy and now we have to start all over so do you want to be my friend again?”

Jaejoong blinked at Yunho’s grinning face, amazed that the adorable demon could’ve said all of that in one breath. He then stared at the demon’s offered hand and looked up again. Beyond the twinkling eyes he could see the hesitant question,

‘Would you take my hand?’

…. So he did…

And at that moment, something just snapped into place. It’s like everything’s complete. An empty space that he didn’t even know he had inside is filled full to the brim.
Jaejoong smiled his first real smile in ages. A pure innocent smile that can only comes from an innocent child with pure heart… He didn’t let go of Yunho’s hand. Gripping it tightly; he said,

“Come Yunnie. Let me show you my room. It has loads of toys and stuffs. Would you like to play with me?”

Yunho’s face lightened up (Jaejoong nearly forgot how to breathe for a moment there) and nods enthusiastically. Letting the younger boy pull his hand, he followed his new friend towards the grand staircase. He started to talk excitedly,

“You know, I brought some of my toys too. At first I packed a whole lot more but Mama said that it was too many and made me unpacked most of them and only to bring my favorite ones but then I told her that all of them are my most favorite but she said that it’s…”

Jaejoong gave a small smile at the other’s babbling, continuing going up the stairs leading to his room.

***********
The four adults stared at the disappearing forms of the two children up the stairs. They had been aware of those two’s encounter from the moment Jaejoong walked towards Yunho behind Mago’s skirt. The two children had obviously been too engrossed with each other to notice their parents’ attention to them.

Yul-ryeo and Mago was glad that their son seems more like himself and got along quite well with their friends’ son. So-Hee and Hwang-gung just nearly had a heart attack at Jaejoong’s happy smile and what’s more, he had WILLINGLY offered to show Yunho his room and asked him to play?? So-Hee shook her head; it was truly a miracle… And yet, hasn’t this happened before?

“You know, I had a feeling of déjà vu just now..” she mused out loud.

However before anyone can ask her what does she means by that, she turned to Mago with gleam in her eyes.

“Oh yes Mago, i nearly forgot. There are some people I would like for you to meet...”

Fic: また会う日まで - Until We Meet Again

2009-05-16T19:26:03Z

Title : また会う日まで (Mata Au Hi Made) - Until We Meet Again (Previously:Untitled).
Pairing : Eventual JaeMinHo/SuChun.. <--warning: I like uke!Yunho and uke!Yoochun XD
Warning: UNBETA!!! <--haha, forgot to add that. Thanks Gabby for reminding me :). BEWARE of slow, painful strangulation of English (and whatever little Korean words I know :p) language!! >.<..
Chapter: Prologue and Chap 1/?
Disclaimer : Nope, these guys aren't mine. I just borrowed them for a while. I'll return them back unharmed.. honest..*crossed fingers behind*

Note:
i)There will be three settings in this fic: Underworld, Heaven's World and Human's World. Underworld and Heaven's world has their own Lord.. They are however not to be confused with Gods. Gods are much higher beings and just being observers in this fic. There are angels in Heaven though. And not all of them are nice either. Underworld isn't Hell as we know it. It was more of a place where every soul has to go to cleanse of their sins before going to their just reward: Heaven, Reborn or just free spirit.

ii)On some of the names used in this chapter:
Yul-ryeo: Taken from Korean myth on creation of the world. Yul was a deity and his wife was Mago. After he died, Mago gave birth to two goddesses: Gung-Hee and So-Hee. These two then gave birth to two Men of Hean and two Women of Heaven. After the appearance of the Heavenly People, Yul-ryeo is revived and through his re-birth heaven, earth, and the oceans were created, along with Chi (soul), fire, water, and earth. These four elements in turn mixed and became herbs and plants, birds and animals. Mago decided to stay with Yul-ryeo, whose body had now become the world, and the Heavenly People ruled all living things from their heavenly fortress named Magoseong in honour of the goddess. Anyway, in this fic he's the Lord of the Underworld and Yunho’s Daddy!! ^_^. He's cool and can be immature at times. He's the grandson of Hades (the true God of Underworld in Greek myth).
Mago: She's Yunnie’s mommy!! Name taken from Mago mythology on creation of the world.
Hwang-gung: Name taken from one of the Heavenly Men which guarded the fortress. He and his brother, Cheong-gung were Gung-Hee’s children. After reading the story of Hwang-gung, I think he’s really nice, caring and gentle (I’m not going to go into depth on the story as it was quite long >.<). In this fic, he's the son of Zeus (Real God in Greek myth) and Yul-ryeo’s best pal. More matured than him though.. ^__^. Jaejoong’s daddy!!
So-Hee: She is Jae’s mommy and Mago’s best friend. The youngest among the four, she’s a little ditzy and sweet. Adore Yunnie.
Hermes:Taken from the Greek myth where this guy supposedly is the messenger for Zeus. He has these cool wings on his shoes and it's been said that he's like the fastest God around.
Apollo: In Greek myth, he's the Sun God. In here, he's the Sun' Lord..
Chiyo-neul: Actually, according to the Chinese/Korean myth Chi You is one of the deity of War (I think)...and obviously a male.. Here, he is a she and..er.. I kind of change the name a bit..hehe..

So, without further ado.. Here's the fic.. Enjoy!

PROLOGUE

Heaven. Hell. Two words that we recognized as well as we know our own name. One is a place we always hope we would end up getting into after that eternal ‘sleep’. And another is a place we know most of us will be going.

Angels. Devils. Two beings that is familiar to us from the day that we were born. The former are being look up to, admired, praised, and awed. The latter; scorned, hated, linked to everything we considered as bad and evil. Something good happened; it means that angels are watching over you… While when anything bad falls upon us, quickly we chalked it up to the work of the devil.

Little that we realized though, they have to co-exist with each other. Without its partner, the other would lose its meaning of existence. There’ll be no heaven if there is no hell and what’s the use of an angel if there is no devil? Like two halves of a circle, one needs the other half to be complete. Yin and yang symbolizes the importance of balance in all fairness and equality, didn’t it?

As for these two beings, how do they feel? Do they even have feeling? Or are they just pawns played by Fate’s hand… like us? Did they really fit the images we attached to them? Are all angels beautiful, gentle, kind and innocent? And are all devils evil, manipulative and deceitful? What if… Just what if we’re not entirely right? Do we still have the right to judge? Because we have to remember, things are not always black and white… sometimes they are just soft shade of gray.

This is a story. Fictional. But not entirely impossible.

It’s about a devil and the angel who loves him.

This is their story… Their love story.

***Prologue finis***

CHAPTER ONE:

First Time They Met
a.k.a
What?! But They’re Just Babies!!

“Mago, we have to hurry else we’ll be late..”
“I know, I know…But… Yunnie, honey.. stay still. Mummy has to put these on you… Yun, no. No… sweetheart, don’t crawl under the table… Ouch!” Grimaced, Mago rubbed the top of her head that had accidentally banged the underside of the dressing table. She turned to glare at her now laughing husband.

‘You know, things will be a lot easier and faster if you would just stop laughing and help to catch your hyper son!” She pouted.

Still shaking with laughter, Yul-ryeo bend down and scoop up the chubby, still-in-his-diaper toddler who had decided that he wanted to explore under the bed next.

“Gotcha! You little tyke.” Yul-ryeo tickled his son under the chin, making the baby giggled and those tiny black wings behind his back fluttered excitedly. He handed back the child to his wife and watch amusingly as she lay little Yunho on the bed and proceeded to clothes him properly.

Black overall with cute picture of red baby devil on the front: sucking its thumb, wide innocent eyes and a halo on its head.

‘How appropriate’ Yul thought to himself. With his dark chocolate hair, fair skin, chubby cheeks complete with button-like eyes and tiny, rosebud mouth; his son looks more like a baby angel than a baby devil he really is. Only the presence of two tiny black wings on his back gave away his true origin. Even his disposition is sweet. Little Yunho hardly ever cry and always seems ready with a gummy grin to everyone he met. All his aunts and uncles are besotted by him. He even has all the servants and practically everyone that’d ever met him wrapped around his tiny little finger.

Yul-ryeo was thankful for that fact. As a ruler of the Underworld, he knew that he has quite a lot of enemies. He constantly worries about his family’s safety. As Yunho is his one and only child, makes the baby an obvious target to those who wish to cause harm and distress to Yul-ryeo and his wife. Knowing that his child is surrounded by people who would gladly lay down their lives to protect him relieves Yul’s stress by quite a lot.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that he will give the matter of taking care of Yunho to the servants totally. He and Mago had already decided that they will see to the upbringing of their baby themselves as much as they can. They want Yunho to have as much as parental loves as possible and never to feel neglected.

“He looks like an angel, didn’t he?” Yul-ryeo started when he heard his wife whispered in his ear. He turned to look at Mago who’s watching their baby with love in her eyes. He then looked down at their pride and joy, who’s currently trying to swallow his fist. Smiling, Yul hugged his wife’s waist.

“Yes, He is our angel,” He kissed the top of her head, “Now let’s get going. Else Hwang-gung will kick my ass for being late to his celebration of his first child.”

“He and So-Hee should be ecstatic. After all, they’ve been married far longer than us and yet it’s been nearly a year after we got Yunho that they’ve been blessed with a child.”

Yul-ryeo chuckled, “Funny that you used that word. Blessed. Who would’ve had bigger power to bless others than my best friend? After all he IS the ruler of Heaven. Mortals referred to him as God even…. Ah, if only they know how he was when we were young.” He chuckled again.

“Yes and you are known as the devil… Though, in your case that might not be far from the truth.” Mago tapped her husband’s nose, teasing him.

He nipped lightly at her finger, “And that’s why you love me, right?”

Yul-ryeo tried to grab at Mago’s waist but she danced out of his reach laughingly.. Bending, she picked up Yunnie who had discovered his toes and was trying see whether he has better chance at swallowing them than his fist.

“A..Ah… No time for that now… As you’ve pointed out earlier, husband-of-mine… We’re going to be late. So hurry up already..”

“Teaser.” He grumbled.

Standing at the doorway carrying their baby, his wife then turned around and stuck out her tongue at him,

“You bet..” She laughed again and went out the room.

Yul-ryeo shook his head, smiled and followed his wife.

(At the Heaven’s Palace)

“Yul, smile a bit for Hell’s sake! You’re going to scare everybody’s here away. They’ll think that you’re coming to declare war with them or something..” Mago hissed at her husband.

Yul-ryeo pouted, “Humph. I hate all these formal things. Everybody’s pretending to be nice and friendly. Then they’ll talk behind each other’s back. And yet they dare to look down at the Underworld thinking they’re so much better than us.” He scowled some more.

Mago raised her eyebrows, in her arms baby Yunho had fallen asleep while sucking on his pacifier.

“I thought you’re all excited to see Hwang-gung again? You’re the one who asked us to hurry up before. It had been nearly a year since you’ve last saw each other, right? I’m really looking forward to see So-Hee too.”

“I am excited to see my best friend again. This past few months had been so busy for both of us. But I really can’t stand all these pompous asses… Come to think of it, why did Hwangie invite all these snobbish lords anyway? He dislikes them as much as I do.” Yul-ryeo scowled.

Mago shakes her head, wondering for the hundredth time how her immature husband can ever be the fearsome Underworld’s Lord. He is so childish at times… And she adores him for it. She smiled.

“Honey, you know it’s not about whether you like them or not. It’s all about responsibility and courtesy. Now hush… Here comes Hwang-gung and So-Hee.”

Yul-ryeo turned around to see his best friend and his wife walked towards them. Or to be more precise, Hwang-gung walked towards them… His wife practically flew down the stairs. Both are smiling widely.

“Mago!!! You came!!!”

Mago nearly topples over by the flying tackled of her friend. For a moment she thought she’s going to drop Yunho. Fortunately Yul-ryeo was close behind her. He caught his wife and steadied her gently. Hwang-gung just shook his head amusedly at his wife’s antic. He then turned to greet his best friend. While the guys try to catch up with each other’s life, their wives continued talking excitedly.

“Of course I came, So-Hee. Sorry we’re a bit late though. Yunnie was in extra hyper mood today. See, he’s all tired out now.” Mago smiled at her long-time friend.

“Ooh, let me look at the adorable angel of yours,” So-Hee can literally felt her heart melt when she looks at the baby’s sleeping face. “Aww, he’s so cute Mago. Like a little Cupid’s cherub.”

Mago laughed, “Yul won’t be happy to hear that. He still holds a grudge against the little guy since Cupid played that prank on him.”

“You mean the one that had Chiyo-neul chasing after Yul oppa, professing her undying love and exactly what she would like to do to him in bed?”

Mago snickered, “Yep, that’s the one..”

So-Hee laughed merrily, “That was a priceless scene. I never thought Chiyo has such a kinky side..”

“Well, she IS the Mistress of War..” Mago smirked.

The two looked at each other and burst out laughing.

“Hey, is this a private conversation or can anyone joins in?” Yul-ryeo put an arm around his wife’s shoulder. Opposite of them, Hwang-gung did the same to So-Hee.

“Yeah, both of you were so noisy that we can’t hear ourselves discussing. What were you guys talking about anyway?”

“Oh nothing much,” Mago looked up to her husband, blinking innocently… “Just that; about Cupid, Chiyo-neul, handcuffs and whips..”

Yul-ryeo shuddered, “Oh please don’t remind me of that day. That was positively the worst and most embarrassing moment in my life!”

Hwang-gung grinned at his friend, “Though I will admit Yul ,that I’ve never see you run so fast before. Why, I believed that you even broke Hermes’s record that day. He’s still pissed off ‘bout that, you know.”

Yul-ryeo pouted, “Humph, you would’ve run like Grandpa Hades himself is after you when you’ve found yourself at the receiving end of love-struck Mistress of War in leather and especially when she’s waving that whip around..!”

His wife and friends laughed at the petulant pout on Yul’s face. A few lords and mistresses around them turned at the sound and glanced at them curiously. Mago choked down another chuckle and cleared her throat.

“Anyway So-Hee, Where’s that little baby prince of yours? What’s his name again?”

So-Hee face clearly brightened even more at the mention of her six month old baby.

“His name is Jaejoong and he’s sleeping upstairs in the nursery. Oh Mago, he is the most beautiful baby… along with Yunho here of course..”

Mago laughed. She understands her friend’s feeling. All mothers will think that their baby’s the most beautiful.

Hwang-gung smiled and nodded, “And obviously he has a temper to match as well. I don’t think both me and So-Hee had half the sleep we used to since we had him. He is quite fussy..”

“… And you loved every minute of it don’t you?” Yul-ryeo nudged his friend, smiling.

“Of course. So-Hee and I decided to raise Jae on our own without any servant’s intervene… Well, except now and then when we’re too busy or in need of some ‘alone’ time together. Like you and Mago. It’s tiring but very worth it.”

Yul-ryeo patted Hwang-gung’s shoulder, “I know how you feel, mate.”

Then their conversation were cut short when Yunho who was up till now sleeping quietly in his mother’s arms began to stirred restlessly. Mago patted his padded bottom and rocked slightly to calm the baby.

“Mago, why don’t we let Yunho sleep in Jae’s crib? It’s quieter in the nursery and the crib is quite big so he’ll be much more comfortable..” So-Hee suggested to her friend.

Mago looked relieved, “Is that okay? To tell the truth, my arms are getting a bit tired. Yun here is not as light as he looks. He is getting quite chubby lately… courtesy of practically everyone in the palace loves to feed him chocolates between meals..” She glared at Yul-ryeo who’s trying his best to look innocent.

So-Hee and Hwang-gung laughed, “Well you can’t blame them. Yunho looks so cute this way,” Mago stroked the baby’s soft cheek, “Anyway, let me show both of you the nursery.”

The four of them make their way through the stairs and long hallways with hundreds of rooms, stopping now and then to greet some of the guests. It looks like everybody who’s anybody is there at the celebration. They all seem eager to have a glimpse of the future Lord of Heaven.

“Okay, we’re here.” So-Hee opened the cream-colored door with intricate rune’s writing design on it to reveal a huge, pretty room. The walls are brightly painted soft blue with white puffy little clouds complete with little rainbows. There is wall to wall thick, soft-as-cloud, white-colored carpet. At least half of the room is filled with toys and children’s books. In the middle of the room, there’s a big, white baby’s cot. So-Hee went near it and pushed aside the lacy fleece covering. She smiled lovingly at the small bundle currently sleeping on the mattress. Mago and Yul-ryeo went to the other side of the cot.

“Oh So-Hee, he’s beautiful.” Mago gushed in a hushed tone.

Lying there peacefully is the pride and joy of So-Hee and Hwang-gung. Caramel brown hair, small button nose and full soft pink lips, complete with a pair of snowy white tiny wings folded on his back; the beautiful baby looks every bit a prince he is. Hwang-gung and his wife looked at their son proudly.

“Mago, you can put Yunho here beside Jae, okay?” So-hee gestured at the empty space beside her son.

Mago bends down and laid Yunho down beside the little baby. She rearranged so that Yunho is lying on his back, facing the other baby. As soon as she straightened back though, little Jaejoong suddenly opened his eyes. So-Hee and Hwang-gung winced, waiting for the usual wailing as Jaejoong often do whenever he awakened. It didn’t come.

Surprised, both of them peered inside the crib where they can see the baby is looking at his sleeping companion’s face. With eyes that seem too intense for such a young face, Jaejoong took in the other’s look. The chubby rosy cheeks, slightly opened red mouth, soft dark chocolate hair. Seeming oblivious to the strange look he got from both his parents and the other two strangers, Jaejoong reached out a hand to the other baby’s cheek and poked it.

Hard.

This of course woke Yunho up with a start. And like all other babies do when their sleep was so rudely interrupt, he began to cry.

Mago quickly bends over to pick up the upset baby but just before she could fully hoist him into her arms, the other baby reached over and grasps a tiny fistful of Yunho’s baby fine hair. Obviously this only makes Yunho cry harder.

Not wanting to hurt her baby further (A/N: all of us know how tight a baby’s hold could be), Mago gently laid Yunho back down. As soon the older baby’s head touched the pillow, Jaejoong immediately let go of Yunho’s hair. Feeling the pressure on his head lessened, Yunho’s crying slowed down till all that’s left is just a sniffle here and there.

Turning over onto his tummy, Yunho finally have a look at his little tormentor beside him. The moment their eyes met, suddenly there’s a flash of bright light exploded. It lasted less than a second but it left the four adults in the room gasping in shock.

However, the two babies seem oblivious to everything else as they continue to stare at each other. Yunho began to crawl towards the other baby and proceed to sat right beside him. He then starts to babble excitedly at Jaejoong, drooling all the while. The younger child just look at him and to the four adults it seems like the younger is listening patiently to Yunho’s continuous babble and looking like he actually understand what the older baby was saying.

Mago looked at her friend; confusion marred her feature.

“What had just happen?”

“I… I’m not sure. Jae’s acting strange. I mean, he didn’t make a sound since he woke up. Not a single wail… and that’s a miracle itself.” So-Hee answered, looking pretty confused herself.

While their wives discussed what had just transpired, Yul-ryeo walked closer to Hwang-gung.

“Did you see that?” he asked.

“What? You mean that flash just now?”
At Yul-ryeo’s nod, Hwang-gung let out a sigh, “Of course I saw that. Do you think it meant anything?”

Yul-ryeo shrugged, “I don’t know. But strange as this may sound, I suddenly remembered about that story Uncle Zeus used to tell us.”

“Huh? Oh, the one about soul mates and their damned fate and stuffs?” Hwang-gung raised his eyebrows, “C’mon Yul, that was just a story. We used to laugh about it remember?”

“Yeah, but I don’t know why that story just entered my mind,” Yul-ryeo paused, “But, just if it is true… What do you think?”

“It’s impossible. First, I don’t believe in destined soul mates. Second, they are too young! They’re still babies for heaven’s sake. Nobody meet their soul mates before they can even talk..!”

Yul-ryeo sighed, “Yeah, you’re right. Maybe I was just being stupid or something.”

Hwang-gung laughed, “Aww, it’s okay. You’re just being your usual self..”
He laughed louder, ducking from a playful knock on head by his friend.. “Now come on. Let’s go back to the celebration. There are still lots of lords and mistresses that miss your sorry ass, mate.”

Turning towards their wives, Orpheus called out to them, “So-Hee, Mago.. Let’s go back outside. So-Hee honey, we’re the host remember?”

So-Hee turned to her husband, worries still etched on her face, “But the babies…”

“…Will be fine,” Hwang-gung injected calmly, “Look at them. They look happy to me. It’s obvious that they like each other’s company. I’m just thankful that Jaejoong wasn’t his usual cranky self, actually.”

And it’s true. The babies now are quietly playing with the numerous toys in the crib. Yunho had discovered a soft sponge ball with a little bell inside and seems content drooling all over it while Jaejoong is waving around a little rattler.

MAgo nodded slowly.. “ Yes, I think Hwang-gung’s right So-Hee. They look okay to me. Maybe we worried too much.”

“You think so?.. Okay then, let’s go downstairs.” So-Hee smiled at her friend then linked arms with her husband and walked out the door. Mago did the same with hers but halfway to the door, Yul-ryeo stopped and turned to contemplate the babies once more.

‘Could it be??… Naaah… Hwangie was right. It was just a story.. Besides, they’re too young. It’s ridiculous..’ he thought.

“Yul? You alright?”

He looked down to his wife’s questioning gaze. Pushing the thought out of his mind, he smiled at her.

“Yeah, I’m okay. Now let’s go downstairs. I can’t wait to see Apollo. He promised to take me on a spin on his fire chariot the last time we met..”

Mago laughed to see her husband’s excited face. He is so childish sometimes.

But even as he let his wife to pull him out the door, Yul-ryeo couldn’t help the last thought from entering his mind…

‘But how about that flash of light??…’

Author note: *came out of hiding* So what do you guys think? Continue or should I just stick this where the sun don't shine? This is actually a remake of my old fic..

p/s: My Korean mythology knowledge only came from Wikipedia.. so.. eheh.. *sheepish smile*.. SORRY for any wrong information!!! *hung head in shame*.. And another thing, I’m just gonna mix and match the goddesses/gods from Korea and Greek.. okay?? <--is it obvious that I have no idea what I’m doing?? o.O..

pp/s: I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this.. but it seemed to me that quite a number of lj accounts had been deleted. Thing is, before I joined the DBSK fandom I hardly heard of such thing (or maybe it's because I'm pretty oblivious and ignorant ^^;;;). But currently, it's almost everyday I went to somebody's journal, only to found that their account is no more =(.. I knew last time when LJ behaved like this was when the Harry Potter craze was going around and they deleted quite a lot of accounts based on those users exploiting unappropriate contents of HP (since in the book, Harry and his friends are all underage) or something like that. That makes me extremely nervous and I partially f-locked anything that has to do with HP in my lj <--though I don't have much actually..hehe.. just a couple of recs here and there. Anyhoo, I was wondering if these mass closing of accounts has anything to do with DBSK/RPS?? maybe LJ targets those who they think is tainting the DBSK name or something ridiculous like that?? I hope I'm just being paranoid though.. I really hate to f-locked my account (though, if needed..well..).

Toodles!
