Pairing: Siwon/Kyuhyun
Summary: For Siwon their first meeting was fleeting, their second was embarrassing. Fate has a funny way of working.
Notes: AU. Secret Agent Siwon meets Rich Boy Kyuhyun.
Part 1 Part 2A Part 2B
“Ah..stop t-touching m-me there…” He could feel blood rushing to his already aching cock as he stared at the flushed image below him. “But you’re obviously enjoying it…” He watched as the other moaned when his hand slowly pinched a nipple. Smirking, he slowly lowered his head to lick at the other nub. “Ahh…Si-Siwon please…nngh…” Lifting his head for a moment, he used his hand to rub at the clothed arousal below him. A soft whimper as his hand slipped inside to touch the heated flesh. “You’re so sensitive Kyuhyun…What do you want me to do?” He found himself giving a smirk as Kyuhyun gave a soft whine at the slow pace his hand was going. “If you don’t tell me I won’t know what you want…” He watched as the other avoided looking at him, his face blushing even more. “I…I want you t-to…move your hand faster.” Siwon chuckled huskily, his body throbbed with desire. “You only had to ask.” His hand moved faster, he could tell he wasn’t going to last much longer, not with the noises and expressions Kyuhyun was making. “Siwon-“ beep beep beep beep.
“Damn it.”
Jerking awake he slammed a hand on to the alarm, his body tense and aching from the vivid dream. Just what was that? He’d be lying if he said it hadn’t affected him, hell the evidence was still there. He slowly sat up as his mind raced with a heady mix of lust and worry. He shouldn’t be having these kinds of dreams about his target. It was one thing to find the others mannerisms to be adorable but having wet dreams about his target?
That had to be against the rules or something.
He got of the bed moving into the bathroom; steadfastly ignoring the throbbing of his body. His mind was still replaying the dream, the way Kyuhyun had looked completely tantalising underneath him, flushed and wanton. His cock twitched at that. Clenching his hands he moved swiftly and turned on the shower. Turning it as cold as possible he stepped in. The sudden shock of cold lowered the ache, as he avoided thinking of anything arousing.
It wasn’t until he was fully dressed and walking out of his room that he allowed his thoughts to think of a course of action.
I’ll just try to avoid him unless necessary until I figure out how to handle this.
He was determined to avoid any unnecessary alone time with the other, at least until he could get his thoughts gathered. That was that. No more thinking about Kyuhyun on his bed moaning his name and begging for-
Damn it.
--
He stepped out of his room after a second shower only to find Kyuhyun leaning against the wall opposite him.
Actually seeing Kyuhyun after the dream was far more embarrassing then he realised, especially when the other looked far too appetizing in a suit. It wasn’t fair how he could barely keep his gaze off the way the black ensemble fit or the fact that Kyuhyun probably didn’t even realise the effect he had upon him.
A Completely professional relationship requires neutral thoughts.
“Siwon, you’re finally awake. Follow me. You took longer to wake up then I thought…I’ll be late for the meeting if we don’t hurry up.” Giving him a smirk and a raised eyebrow the younger started to walk towards him. “K-Kyuhyun…”
His voice trailed off as the other gave him a confused look, his head tilting to the side. “Are you okay? You look really red…” Concern replaced the smirk as the other walked even closer a hand reaching out. Siwon immediately stepped backwards.
He’s…dangerously cute.
“I…I’m fine! I just need the bathroom I’ll see you at the meeting! You go ahead.”
“Where are you going?” Kyuhyun’s question was ignored as he ran back towards his room and closed the door. There was no way he could be alone with the other at the moment, not when the sight of him was enough to bring back the images from the dream. He didn’t bother to reply instead slamming the door to the bathroom as loudly as possible.
“Fine! But now that I think about it you really suck at being a bodyguard so maybe you should just stay there for today.”
He could hear the tinge of hurt despite the snarky remark, it made his heart clench at the thought of hurting the others feelings but really it was necessary. He would be a danger to his target if all he wanted to do at the moment was jump him. He waited a moment as his footsteps faded away and after making sure the other was gone, left his room, only to collide into someone else.
“Sorry! I didn’t realise you were right outside my-Zhou Mi?” He helped pull the taller man up.
Zhou Mi rubbed his head. “Good morning Siwon! I’m surprised you didn’t go to the meeting with Kui Xian, he said he was going to head there with you first while I got the papers.” Siwon forced a smile at that, his heart clenching stronger as he realised that he’d basically rejected Kyuhyun. “I realised I needed to get something from my room so… I told him to go there first.” At least it wasn’t an outright lie although Zhou Mi’s look of disbelief made him wonder if he was that transparent “I see. Well we’d better go now or else we’ll really be late!”
They headed towards the boardroom at a rapid pace and a familiar door stood in front of him, the same door to the boardroom when they met Mr Cho. Once he actually entered the room he could feel Kyuhyun’s glare immediately. Unsure as to where to stand, he found Zhou Mi nudging him towards a chair; as he sat down he studiously avoided looking towards Kyuhyun.
Taking a chance to survey the room he looked around.
It was the same magnificent boardroom as before, the large oak table, leather seats, and the picture of landscape behind the head of the table. Damn it. His eyes caught intense brown ones before darting away.
Kyuhyun sat right in front of the picture, at the head of the table. Zhou Mi sat to his left at a slight angle. He was sitting next to Zhou Mi; off to the side and had a good view of the other six occupants that filled the table. Only the chair at the other end of the table was empty.
He leaned over surreptitiously to talk to Zhou Mi. “What’s this meeting about?” Said man glanced up from the notes he was writing. “Kyuhyun is learning to take over for his father so he’s dealing with a board of director’s meeting; he’s trying to convince them to agree to a business deal. The headache inducing kind if you ask me, they don’t like the idea of someone as young as Kyuhyun trying to make big decisions.” Shooting him a kind smile the Chinese man went make to the documents in his lap. He could tell the other was busy and continued his silent observation.
In spite of his decision to ignore Kyuhyun until he sorted his feelings out he found his gaze drawn to the pale face; a fond smile appearing on his face at the sight of a protruding lower lip, the beginnings of an adorable pout, as they waited for the last person.
However he couldn’t help but notice that the brunette looked tired, not at all like the cheerful and carefree man who had wanted to play games from yesterday. How does he still look so captivating then? He found himself unable to move his eyes away even when the other caught him staring. Only to find their staring interrupted when a loud bang echoed in the room. Both their gazes flew towards the door, an arrogant looking man walked in.
“Now that Mr Tae has decided to grace us with his presence we can begin.” Kyuhyun indicated everyone to open the files in front of them. Siwon found himself tuning out the talking and instead stared openly at the confidence and authority the brunette exuded, a smile making its way onto his face as he watched him argue his view across.
The meeting seemed to be going smoothly until suddenly the man who had been late stood up.
“I want to ask the board if they really want to follow orders from a child! You probably don’t even realise how much it would cost us if we failed!”
A low murmur of agreement as Mr Tae smirked pointedly at Kyuhyun. Siwon could feel anger simmer inside him as he resisted the urge to hit the man, why where they all agreeing with him so easily? Couldn’t they tell Kyuhyun had worked hard on this if the fluency and detailed arguments he’d made was any indication?
“You’ve seen the documents yourself and you know full well that this deal would be completely beneficial to the company-“
“Sadly though they’re also our old rivals, you can’t merely rely on data! That’s why you’re far too inexperienced for this job! How do we know we can even trust your data?”
Kyuhyun sighed, a hand coming up to rub at his temple.
“I did do extensive research into this issue of them being previous rivals and they have also agreed to sign our contract that clearly stipulates any possible back-stabbing they may do. Perhaps if you had read the contract you would see this.”
He raised a hand as the other man started to splutter out excuses.
“I would hate to have to fire one of the board’s longest members because he refused one of the biggest deals we’ll be making this year thus costing us a lot of money. I also doubt my father would be happy to hear you implying that I would sell out our company.”
Siwon watched as the older man seemed at a loss for words.
“Now is there anyone else who would like to raise objection?”
Silence as most of them avoided looking at Kyuhyun. Nodding at their silent consensus he began concluding the meeting. The tense argument over, the rest of the board slowly exited, their muted chatter slowly fading away as Kyuhyun talked to Zhou Mi about the agreements.
He could feel a flare of pride at how well Kyuhyun was handling these people especially how they made their dislike obvious but worry nagged at his mind. His sharp eyes noticing the tiny tremors from the others hand and the faint sheen of sweat as the stress from the meeting got to him. He had the strange urge to get up and hug the other, to tell him comforting words. Immediately he clenched his hands, hard enough the nails dug at his skin. I have to stop thinking like that.
Steeling his nerves, and telling his mind firmly to stop thinking about how attractive Kyuhyun was looking in the suit. He’d probably look even better out of it. Stop. Thinking. He moved towards the other, after all he had to find out what the plan for the rest of the afternoon was.
“Kyuhyun- I just wanted to know if you were planning on going anywhere today…” His sentence trailed off as chocolate brown eyes glared at him. He felt his heart sink as Kyuhyun ignored him instead proclaiming loudly to Zhou Mi that he had reports to finish and that no one bothers him tonight as he brushed pass him.
--
He sat in his room contemplating what to do now that Kyuhyun was mad at him and refused to acknowledge him, especially when he’d ignored his question after the meeting. Siwon could only feel glad that the other had decided to stay home today rather than go out. Zhou Mi’s worried look at the both of them as he had trailed after Kyuhyun hadn’t escaped his attention though. He should be feeling happy that Kyuhyun was ignoring him now; it made his decision to avoid being around the other unless necessary easier.
Then why does my heart hurt?
He was startled out of his reverie by his phone ringing a frown of worry appearing as he saw the caller ID.
“Hello? Is something wrong?”
“Siwon, no there’s nothing wrong, I’ve just been talking to Kangin and I had a feeling he probably thought I was just over-worrying. I know you’re not the Team leader this time but- well- it’s just I know you’ll take my warnings to heart. Kangin can be too head-strong sometimes. I’m not bothering you am I?”
Siwon’s face relaxed. “No, Leeteuk-hyung what’s wrong?” He could almost see the other pacing nervously as he was wont to do whenever he went into one of his worried modes.
“I’m just worried that ‘Zeus’ may have more insiders than we realised. The other team thinks they’ve found his headquarters but are having a hard time getting inside and we haven’t got enough evidence to be able to just barge in. We’ve gone through a lot of our suspects as well and still nothing.”
He could hear the concern and anxiety in the others voice. “Leeteuk don’t worry. I’ll remind Kangin and tell the others. I’m sure they’ll find something soon.”
“I know! But I’m just really-“
“You know that we’ll find something soon. Especially with how impatient Heechul is, I wouldn’t be surprised if he just stormed in.”
That got him a tiny laugh, the elder obviously stressed from his work as co-ordinator.
“I guess. It’s just…I worry about everyone you know? I just want you guys to finish the mission safely and soon.”
Siwon smiled at that. He’s always worrying about everyone. “We appreciate it. Thank you. You’re one of the best coordinator’s in the company, you know that sometimes missions take far longer than expected, so don’t worry too much.” Leeteuk made a small noise of agreement.
“I hope you’re eating properly though!”
One of the few topics that always caused Leeteuk to fumble over, no doubt he’d been asked by Kangin earlier as well. After the small chuckles subsided as the other stumbled over excuses he was expecting a goodbye.
“Yes, but thank you for listening to me rant. Now tell me what’s wrong with you.”
He could feel panic grow inside him at the statement; somehow unsurprised that the elder knew something was worrying him. He was tempted to lie but could tell that his silence had given away the fact that he was worried about something. “I guess…” What would Leeteuk think?
“Don’t even think about lying to me. I’ve been working with you for far too long to not know when you are. Siwon just tell me what’s wrong, you know we’re friends first.”
“It’s just... I think… I’m attracted to my target.”
Saying it out loud made it feel a lot more real than he realised, however he was startled to find Leeteuk laughing as an answer. “Oh Siwon, it’s normal to find someone attractive!” “..b-but I’m supposed to maintain a professional outlook about my target not have-“He was swiftly cut off. “I know what the rules say but really you can’t help attraction! As long as you don’t develop a relationship it’ll be fine. I mean I’d be lying if I said I’d never found any of the people I’ve had to look after attractive back when I was still on the field. Really Siwon, the fact that you’re worrying about it proves that you make a good agent. Just…be careful and remember that there’s still the possibility that your target is involved.”
Siwon knew his face was one of shock as he clutched at the phone, despite his silence Leeteuk merely continued talking his tone changing to that of wry amusement.
“Although I hope you haven’t been avoiding your target because of this. It’ll cause far more suspicion in the long run if you are.”
“I-I guess…hyung are you sure I shouldn’t just ask to change positions with one of the others?”
“Yes. I have faith in you! I know you’re probably still beating yourself up from before but Siwon have more faith in yourself!” Siwon found the heavy weight from before slowly lessening at the advice from the elder.
It’s just physical attraction; after all I haven’t been with somebody in a long time. I was just freaking out because he’s my target. I do not feel anything beyond that for Cho Kyuhyun.
A thoughtful look appeared on his face as he took into consideration the advice. “I have to go and sort things out. Thank you for the advice hyung!” Leeteuk’s goodbye was cut off as he hung up. Rushing to find the contact details of where Kangin was, a plan to get Kyuhyun to forgive his cold behaviour today already formulating.
“Hello Kangin-hyung-no everything’s fine! I was just wondering if you could get me something… its important trust me!”
--
Siwon stood outside Kyuhyun’s room gathering his nerves. No doubt that the other was still mad about his avoidant attitude today; he wondered how to approach Kyuhyun. It had taken Kangin two hours to get the laptop, after convincing Mr Cho it was for important reasons and then a half an hour drive from the hotel. Now here he was holding Kyuhyun’s precious laptop and his own.
He pushed the door open without knocking.
“…I’m going to go ask him what his problem is-Siwon?!”
Siwon stared at the single occupant of the room, he’d been expecting Zhou Mi to be there considering the mumbling but it looked as if Kyuhyun had been muttering to himself whilst writing a report if the papers scattered across his desk was any indication.
“W-what do you think you’re doing! You should knock before entering someone’s room like that!” The other looked as adorable as ever sitting in a large chair whilst wearing an over-sized jumper and looking absolutely endearing with a blush on his face.
“I’m here to apologize. I’m sorry about acting rude today and avoiding you.” Kyuhyun refused to meet his eyes instead pouting at the window. “I also…got something for you…” He held out the others laptop. “You got it back! How did you do it?” His face lit up and he grabbed it before placing it on a clear area on the desk. Siwon felt slightly disappointed that the other hadn’t noticed that he’d brought his laptop in the hopes of being invited to play as well but berated himself for even thinking that.
“It was nothing…I guess I’d better-“
“Where do you think you’re going? You want my forgiveness right, I expect you to play against me! Not because I want to play with you, only because no one interesting will be online right now.” Still not meeting his eyes Kyuhyun indicated the seat in front of him although the blush on his face was rather noticeable. He was absolutely adorable.
Siwon could feel the grin on his face as he sat down.
Maybe this stupid attraction will go away now that I’ve come to terms with it…
---tbc.
This chapter must have been boring to read T.T No seriously the board meeting? What was I thinking.
(ItmakesupthebulkofthischapterandIreallydidin'twanttocutitoutandalsoreallyIprobablyshouldhavecutthescenewithLeeteukbutIneededthemtohavetheconversation.)
I'm going to stop typing soon I promise. Also looking forward to the next chapter though! ^^ and at least there was kind of a step forward in their relationship! and three steps back because Siwon is emotionally stunted in this story.
Thank you for reading!
Next Chapter:
“…I don’t mind if…if that’s what you’re worried about.” A vibrant blush on his face. How could Siwon resist that?

“Damn it.”
Jerking awake he slammed a hand on to the alarm, his body tense and aching from the vivid dream. Just what was that?

It’s just physical attraction; after all I haven’t been with somebody in a long time. I was just freaking out because he’s my target. I do not feel anything beyond that for Cho Kyuhyun.
A thoughtful look appeared on his face as he took into consideration the advice. “I have to go and sort things out. Thank you for the advice hyung!” Leeteuk’s goodbye was cut off as he hung up. Rushing to find the contact details of where Kangin was, a plan to get Kyuhyun to forgive his cold behaviour today already formulating.
“Hello Kangin-hyung-no everything’s fine! I was just wondering if you could get me something… its important trust me!”
--
Siwon stood outside Kyuhyun’s room gathering his nerves. No doubt that the other was still mad about his avoidant attitude today; he wondered how to approach Kyuhyun. It had taken Kangin two hours to get the laptop, after convincing Mr Cho it was for important reasons and then a half an hour drive from the hotel. Now here he was holding Kyuhyun’s precious laptop and his own.
He pushed the door open without knocking.
“…I’m going to go ask him what his problem is-Siwon?!”
Siwon stared at the single occupant of the room, he’d been expecting Zhou Mi to be there considering the mumbling but it looked as if Kyuhyun had been muttering to himself whilst writing a report if the papers scattered across his desk was any indication.
“W-what do you think you’re doing! You should knock before entering someone’s room like that!” The other looked as adorable as ever sitting in a large chair whilst wearing an over-sized jumper and looking absolutely endearing with a blush on his face.
“I’m here to apologize. I’m sorry about acting rude today and avoiding you.” Kyuhyun refused to meet his eyes instead pouting at the window. “I also…got something for you…” He held out the others laptop. “You got it back! How did you do it?” His face lit up and he grabbed it before placing it on a clear area on the desk. Siwon felt slightly disappointed that the other hadn’t noticed that he’d brought his laptop in the hopes of being invited to play as well but berated himself for even thinking that.
“It was nothing…I guess I’d better-“
“Where do you think you’re going? You want my forgiveness right, I expect you to play against me! Not because I want to play with you, only because no one interesting will be online right now.” Still not meeting his eyes Kyuhyun indicated the seat in front of him although the blush on his face was rather noticeable. He was absolutely adorable.
Siwon could feel the grin on his face as he sat down.
Maybe this stupid attraction will go away now that I’ve come to terms with it…
---tbc.
This chapter must have been boring to read T.T No seriously the board meeting? What was I thinking.
(ItmakesupthebulkofthischapterandIreallydidin'twanttocutitoutandalsoreallyIprobablyshouldhavecutthescenewithLeeteukbutIneededthemtohavetheconversation.)
I'm going to stop typing soon I promise. Also looking forward to the next chapter though! ^^ and at least there was kind of a step forward in their relationship! and three steps back because Siwon is emotionally stunted in this story.
Thank you for reading!
Next Chapter:
“…I don’t mind if…if that’s what you’re worried about.” A vibrant blush on his face. How could Siwon resist that?
