Summary: Donghae has been spending way too much time with Yesung, and not enough time with Hyukjae recently. So Hyukjae decided it was payback time. But was it Donghae's fault in the first place?
Hyukjae glanced over to the two men that sat by the fireplace, huddled together as though deep in discussion.
He felt his heart do weird sensation, you know, the one where it gets all tingly but not in a good way.
Its been doing that all week actually. Probably because Donghae has been completely ignoring him for Yesung. And for what?!
"Turtles. I wna know about turtles." Donghae told Hyukjae one morning, his big brown eyes shining eagerly.
"Go ask Yesung then, i'm sure he'd be more than happy to teach you since no one else is interested in his creatures of the dead here." Hyukjae answered waving Donghae off in Yesung's direction.
He was too distracted with trying to beat his high score of -1.2 metres on QWOP to care about his boyfriend's sudden interest in turtles.
"Alright Hyukkie i will!" Donghae replied cheerily, obviously not getting Hyukjae's sarcasm at all.
Donghae bent over and raked his hands through Hyukjae's soft brown threads, his lips grazing the others, before moulding together perfectly. Hyukjae always tasted sweet, as sweet as strawberries, Donghae thought.
His presence, the unexplainable desire still hung on his lips as he pulled away. Leaving Donghae grinning at the sulking Hyukjae in front of him.
Needless to say, once Donghae ran off to find Yesung, leaving Hyukjae in a rather dazed state from the kiss, his final score was now not -1.2metres but -2.0metres.
"Great" Hyukjae muttered to himself, restarting the game. This was gonna take awhile.
After much too many failed attempts and about 10 blisters later, he eventually gave up and stomped in defeat to the living room in the dorm.
He looked over at Donghae who was busy flailing his arms about at the mildly amused Yesung in front of him. Hyukjae smiled, he like seeing Donghae so excited over something so trivial.
His eyes would enlarge and he'd talk rapidly in long sentences that probably won't make sense unless you listen real closely. And his voice would get all high and squeaky when it reached the climax and for no particular reason after that, Donghae would burst out in laughter as though the whole thing was a joke.
Hyukjae thought it was cute.
But the next day, he saw Donghae squealing to Yesung about some turtle foundation he wanted to set up online, and Hyukjae felt a pang of jealousy overwhelm him.
It was for the turtles, Hyukjae reminded himself constantly when he saw the two of them gabbering excitedly to each other. Were turtles even that interesting?!
But day after day, it was the same routine. He'd wake up to find Yesung and Donghae squished together like two lovebirds gossiping about their teenage lives.
And all the while, Donghae blatently ignored him. Everytime Hyukjae tried to make conversation with the two of them, it would turn into an awkward mess.
"So.... hows Ddangkko- Erm, your turtle.?" Would be Hyukjae's opening line to a disaster.
"His name is Ddangkkoma and he's fine." Yesung would reply rather hurt that his own friend couldn't even bother to remember his turtles name.
Hyukjae would blush, rather embarrassed at his failure, and eventually settle upon silence for the rest of the conversation which he played no part of.
Hyukjae got tired of playing the third wheel. That position was supposed to be Yesung's. And he got sick of Donghae just pretending that he was non existent even though it wasn't on purpose.
Hyukjae practically lived on being the attention whore around the dorm, and if no one cared, he'd become a sulky whiny bitch.
And this bitch intended to get himself back in the limelight where he belonged.
Well, maybe he just wanted Donghae to give a shit again.
So, he decided that it was time for revenge.
-----
Donghae got tired of things pretty easily, so soon enough, his interest for turtles faded, much to Yesung's disappointment.
Despite the harrasment from Yesung, asking, well more like begging, him to come back and help him with his turtles again, since well, he was the only one who actually seemed to care, Donghae pushed him off and told him that he had other things to do.
"Sorry hyung," Donghae muttered apologetically, feeling bad for leaving the pathetic, almost about to cry, Yesung at home. "Maybe some other time alright, I've got to find Hyukkie now."
Donghae quickly rushed out the door before Yesung could protest. He ran off in search of Hyukjae who was nowhere to be found.
Finally, Donghae spotted him at the dance studio, freestyling to some of their old mash ups.
Donghae watched from the exterior, admiring the way his boyfriend moved so fluently to the beat. His body gracefully swept across the entire room, bringing with him such an enticing presence and utmost perfection.
Hyukjae was one heck of a damn good dancer. Donghae thought.
He burst into the studio, giving Hyukjae the fright of his life.
"Hey Hyukkie!" Donghae rushed forward and grabbed Hyukjae into a hug.
Hyukjae squirmed uncomfortably, trying to get out of Donghae's strong grasp, and successfully doing so.
Donghae had a look of surprise on his face, and it immediately turned into a worried frown.
"Are you alright Hyukkie? You seem abit, off today." Donghae asked, eyes searching Hyukjae as though he might find the problem written all over his face.
Hyukjae didn't answer. He planned on giving Donghae the silent treatment until he managed to figure out that he was supposed to apologise for his actions.
But who could resist Donghae's puppy dog eyes, and the most adorable little pout ever?! Hyukjae shook his head furiously, trying to erase the images from his mind.
Now was not the right time to give in to temptation.
Donghae stared quizically at his boyfriend, trying to figure out why he was acting so strange all of a sudden.
So, in an attempt to make an effort, Donghae tried again.
"Erm, wanna grab some lunch together? We can go to the chinese place you like!" Donghae asked enthusiastically. Though he hated chinese food, he didn't mind sitting through the meal for Hyukjae.
He was his boyfriend after all.
Still no answer. Hyukjae just walked off to the corner of the room, sat down, and slurpped on his strawberry milk, whilst staring at Donghae with those wide eyes he possesed.
Donghae huffed and stuck his bottom lip out in defeat. He honestly didn't have a clue as to why Hyukjae was being so stubborn like this.
"What on earth did i do wrong Hyukjae?!" Donghae yelled, obviously hurt that his boyfriend didn't want to say a word to him.
Meanwhile, Hyukjae was trying to prevent himself from spoiling his own plan.
God damn it Lee Donghae why must you be so good looking?! Hyukjae cursed inwardly, staring at the man before him.
Hyukjae wanted to do Donghae right then and there, on the cold polished wooden floors of the dance studio, but he knew Leeteuk would grumble and make a big fuss out of it.
"HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU, NO SEX ON MUTUAL PROPERTY?!" Leeteuk yelled at Sungmin and Kyuhyun, who stood meekly before the outraged leader.
And after that, the company van had been banned for enternity. Not after everyone was scarred for life though. They had to sit in that same van for days, till Leeteuk managed to persuade SM to give them a new one.
He wanted to suck that bottom lip so badly, and to taste what was meant to be his.
Donghae's eyebrows were furrowed as though he was really concentrated and deep in thought. He glanced at Hyukjae couple of times, while Hyukjae just sat there glaring and trying to focus.
If he hadn't been sucking on that straw right now, his mouth would have been wide open with drool running down the side of it. Oh yeah, it was that bad.
This was probably the after effect of not having Donghae constantly be around him 24/7.
Which then made him realise how fucking clingy he was. Oh God Hyukjae are you mental?! He thought to himself. Why was he being so desperate.
As if God knew of his debate going on at the back of his mind, a tiny voice, also known as his conscience, spoke to him.
"Oh shut up and quit being such a baby about it, look at the poor boy standing there all alone and frustrated. He shouldn't be the one apologising, you should! For being so over-sensitive about something so small and unimportant."
Suddenly, all the memories came flooding back into his mind, and he found himself looking at it from another perspective.
Donghae didn't do anything wrong, it was just him, being his stupid old jealous self. Come to think of it, Donghae didn't ignore him. He just refused to even touch one of those creatures no matter how many times Donghae offered.
He wanted to show how much he didn't care about it, in hopes that Donghae would give the turtle business up. But when he didn't, thats when he got mad and all green eyed with envy.
This conversation he had with himself lasted for about 40 seconds. And just as Donghae was about to give up and stomp out of the studio, leaving his boyfriend to his menopause, Hyukjae jumped up and clambered onto his back, sending butterfly kisses all down his neck and face. Basically whatever kind of skin contact he could reach.
Donghae swiveled around, hands gripping onto his boyfriend's shoulders, stopping him abruptly.
"What the fuck is going on Hyukjae?" Donghae asked half angry and half confused, breaking Hyukjae away from his major kissing rampage.
"Are you bipolar or something?!" He screamed, pissed because apparently he had just wasted his time agonizing over the situation when nothing was wrong in the first place.
"Fuck this." Hyukjae muttered before saying, "Sorry Hae bout all that. It was kinda supposed to teach you a lesson for ignoring me for Yesung so much. Then i guess it sort of backfired..."
Hyukjae stood rather awkwardly in front of the raging Donghae, trying to explain himself.
"The point is, in the 5 minutes you spent yelling at me over there, i realised how stupid i was acting. Because honestly, i was just seriously messed up and i wanted you all to myself. And seeing you in front of me, caring about why i was so upset, idk, it showed me that i was the one being unreasonable in the first place, for being the jealous boyfriend. So i'm really really really sorry." Hyukjae gulped, hoping that Donghae accepted his pathetic excuse.
Donghae paused. He looked at Hyukjae, trying to figure out what was going on in that weird clockwork machine he called his mind.
He sighed. "Hyukjae, don't ever scare me like that."
And he pulled him into a bone crunching hug.
Hyukjae felt Donghae's breath on his ear, as he whispered. "Silly boy, why would you think i was ignoring you for Yesung? You know i never could."
"And i care Hyukjae, i care about you, way too much." He looked him in the eye and said seriously.
Hyukjae felt a rush of emotions gradually creep into his heart.
Gratitude, Joy, and... Love.
And he thanked god that his boyfriend was so forgiving.
He cupped Donghae's face, eyes lingering over those lips he had to claim.
"Don't ever leave me for turtles again." Hyukjae said, and he heard Donghae's tinkling laughter before he stole his lips with his own.
