Summary: Kyuhyun and Ryeowook in the eyes of others. (This instalment: Sungmin/Eunhyuk/Leeteuk)
#01: Sungmin
When Sungmin opens the bankbook absentmindedly discarded on the bed, his jaw drops.
“You are this rich?!”
Kyuhyun looks up from his laptop, his eyes landing on the bankbook in Sungmin’s hand.
“I work hard.” Kyuhyun points at the schedule fastened above his desk. “Besides it isn’t enough.”
“Not enough for?” Sungmin tries to keep his incredulity in check.
Kyuhyun meets Sungmin’s eyes with his own. “If one day Ryeowookie decides that he's tired of showbiz, I want to be able to take him away, right away.”
And Sungmin sees a man instead of the usual brat that Kyuhyun is.

#02: Eunhyuk
“Ryeowook, you’re not coming to the hospital?” Eunhyuk stops by the kitchen, frowning. Ryeowook shakes his head, continuing to rummage through the fridge.
“Kyuhyun’s in a critical condition.” Eunhyuk’s blood boils. “This may the last time -”
“I’m not going,” Ryeowook says loudly, and Eunhyuk leaves, slamming the door in his wake.
Fifty hours later, Eunhyuk returns to the dorm, tired but relieved. He forgets his anger when he sees the lone figure on the couch.
“Ryeowookie,” Eunhyuk calls and Ryeowook looks up. “Kyuhyun’s fine now.”
“I know.” The corners of Ryeowook’s lips lift almost triumphantly. “I’ve never believed otherwise.”

#03: Leeteuk
Kyuhyun and Ryeowook stand before Leeteuk, unwavering.
Leeteuk’s words, all begging them to break up for the good of the group, fall on deaf ears. When Kyuhyun retorts, his hand swings out. In that second, Ryeowook steps before Kyuhyun and the slap lands on Ryeowook’s cheek instead.
Kyuhyun’s face hardened when Ryeowook’s cheek swells.
“Nobody hurts him,” Kyuhyun’s says coldly and Leeteuk thought that Kyuhyun would hit him. But Kyuhyun grabs Ryeowook's hand and pulls him to the door.
“Hyung, you’ve underestimated how important Ryeowook is to me.”
The door shuts, and Leeteuk’s heart bleeds.
He's fighting a losing battle.

A/N: This started out as merely unrelated drabbles I write to break away from another onerous ongoing project. Then I thought ‘Hey I can write Kyuwook from the perspective of the people around them!’, and this was born. There may be more drabbles in this series. ^^
Keeping to the 100 word limit is the difficulty about writing drabbles. It's a deviation from my usual writing style too. Nevertheless, enjoy. :))
