Overprotection
„Don't stand in the sun. You better go to the shadow or else you'll get a sunstroke...”
„Where are you going without a cap on? You will catch a cold, aiiishh!”
„I noticed that you don't eat much recently... That's why I bought you a box of your favorite sushi.”
„Don't you think that you already drank enough wine?”
„WATCH OUT! This car almost ran over you, you idiot!”
I left a deep sigh, having slowly enough of this. In the last days, I had quietly endured comments like these but I was running out of patience. I was known as a kind, polite and persistent person but under the influence of big irritation the intensity of these features decreased like fuel in a car. It was about time to refuel.
"Kyu! For God's sake, could you please stop this? I'm a grown-up man and I can take care of myself."
I made a pause in walking and shook my head in disbelief. What's wrong with him recently? He behaved worse than a mother who is teasing her child or a grandma who advises her grandchildren to wear warm stockings. I bet that he would have been able to ran after me out of the house with an umbrella in his hand, screaming that there are heavy clouds on the sky which I cannot ignore. Luckily these day the sun shone brightly so he didn't even think about something like this. Nevertheless, he insisted to accompany me on my walk instead.
"What's the matter? Did anything happen?" he asked innocently, with this evil smirk of his. He planned something nasty against me, I knew it! I just couldn't sense what.
"You still dare to ask me? You are so strangely overprotective about me recently... I appreciate your supervision, really, but please, give me some rest."
Kyu laughed carelessly, showing his incredible smile. There was a bit of amusement but also craftiness in it. Oh I know these smirks so well! Something was definitely fishy, the red alarm light in my head went on and warned me to be on guard.
My companion moved on, leaving me behind. I was so pensive that I saw that only after a few seconds, wherefore I tried to catch up with him by taking quick steps. I heard a voice coming from the front:
"Minnie... calm down. By the way, I thought about something while going through this street now... I think that you could really need some pepper spray, in case that someone would try to attack you... You never know what could happen being a famous singer."
"Kyuuuuuuu!"
I automatically jumped to him with my fists and started to lightly hit his back, showing my irritation this way. This person pissed me off so much in the last days! I already had to endure his overnight staying at the computer and waking up every time he started to dance through the room after each victory... And then this stupid comments. I wanted to shoot him to the Mars at that moment.
Kyuhyun totally ignored my sudden attack and just turned to me so that I could admire his sarcastic smirk again. He looked me in the eyes with amusement for a moment, although I tried by all means to avoid his glance. Then he did something unexpected. He grabbed me strongly by the shoulders - so strongly that I even lurched a bit - and pulled me to him to give me an earnest hug. My first desire was to escape fast, far away from him.
"Get off!" I shouted but he just waved his head and increased the power of the hug. I yelled quietly to show my dissatisfaction - he didn't mind and patted me only on my head causing me to feel even more like a child being under the care of his mommy.
"You are showing once again that you aren't Evil Kyu for no reason" I mumbled sulky, though I started to calm down slowly. Well, his hugs were quite... warm and pleasant. To be honest, I could stay like this forever. I had enough of his overprotection but this... this was so different. I felt so safe in his arms, just as if this one person in front of me could defend me from all the evil in this world. I closed my eyes a bit and I think that I sighed quietly.
He must have noticed the change of my mood because I felt that his embrace slowly loosened.
No... not yet, I thought but it was already too late - Kyuhyun stepped silently away from me so I looked at him again and our eyes met. He was still smiling. All the irony was gone though - his face showed kindness, courtesy and friendship.
"So what. Is it better now?" he asked and I moved my head as an answer. "You can sulk just like a girl."
"I know" I mumbled with no matter, being still under the influence of that positive feeling he gave me. I was like hypnotised, I didn't now what to think, what to say and what to do. Kyu apparently decided to take the role of my guardian once again because he grasped my arm without even thinking of it and started to pull me forward so that we could continue our walk. I let him lead me without really paying attention to how I take my steps or if I accidentally bumped into something. I peeped to his side every now and then and observed the movement of his eyelids, his chest rising while breathing and this everlasting smile of him which I just couldn't take my eyes off. He also looked at me a couple of times what made me shy and confused so I quickly turned my head everytime he did that. I know that I behaved just like a teenager in love, yeah. But it wasn't like that. I was fascinated with how big influence this person had on me - he could wake every different kind of emotions in me. Anger, irritation but also calmness, bliss and even a bit of attraction. I think that no one affected me this strongly like he did. Was it because he was a roommate of mine or maybe because we spent a lot of time with each other in general - I don't know. But one thing was certain - Kyuhyun was a damn good manipulator.

It was only a few minutes after midnight when I started to feel incredibly tired. Lastly I hadn't been in a good condition so I overworked myself very fast and the walk had been quite long, too. That's why I fell on my bed just like a dead man. I lied down cosily, covered myself up with the warm quilt and yawned. This time I didn't feel young, it was just the opposite - I had the feeling that the old age is near. Yah, Sungmin, you'll be probably seventy soon...
I turned to the side and looked towards the computer. From this perspective I only saw the back of the chair, Kyuhyun's shoulders and his hair with headphones covering the ears. I could hear his quiet mumbles which most likely meant that he was losing. Well, at that moment Evil Kyu was one hundred percent reborn as Game Kyu.
I suddenly felt the irresistible desire to go there, to be close to him, even if only for a moment. I wanted to feel his warmth before going to sleep because the quilt didn't gave me this pleasant feeling that he did. So I clumsily got up and I almost fell down - I forgot about my tiredness and made too energetic moves. After many troubles I finally managed to toddle in his direction. I stood behind him and for a moment observed his game; I never really learnt what Star Craft was about, it just wasn't my cup of tea. That's why Kyu's doings seemed like magic to me. I think he suceeded at last because he jumped slightly on his chair with a "yes!" scream. He was so absorbed in his game that he didn't even realize that I was standing there behind him all the time.
I pulled my hands towards him and slowly, gently, I embraced his neck from behind. I felt that he shivered a bit, being surprised by my near presence. He didn't react in any other way though because he continued to play along without any further moves.
I smelled a light fragrance of his perfum, now being more perceptible in the room than outdoors. The smell was perfect for him, I sensed a bit of evilness in it, engagement and tenderness. His body indeed showed as much warmth as it did before. I didn't feel any tiredness or sleepiness anymore. Once again I only dreamt about staying in this position for a long time. That was such a specific feeling... I don't even know how I should describe it. It was...
Happiness.
I awoke when Game Kyu took off his headphones at one moment and turned his head towards me. He did this only in special moments because usually the other band members could shout at him, beat him and swear at him but he always didn't care about them and played stubbornly along. So I could feel honoured that he paid attention to me.
"Sungmin..." he whispered with a sweet voice which made me all dizzy.
"Mhmmm...?" I mumbled, being just like before somewhere in the regions of seventh heaven...
"...well, did you brush your teeth before you wanted to go to sleep?"
I petrified. My seventh heaven appeared to be locked with a padlock and I fell into hell and faced the pure devil, Kyu. My mood changed in the blink of an eye and I felt like bursting out in anger. How could he, in such a moment...!
"KYUHYUN! You son of a... DAMN! I totally forgot to brush them!"
I jumped away from him and ashamed of the situation left him as fast as I could to finally close myself in the bathroom and lean my hands on the sink wherefore I started to laugh out loud.
Kyuhyun observed Sungmin until he disappeared behind the door and turned towards the monitor again, with his typical smile all over his face. He put the headphones on and started to mumble to himself:
"I totally knew from the very beginning that I need to take care of him just like of a little child..."
