[One-shot] With Wine...
Title: With Wine…
Pairing: KyuMin
Rating: Pg-13
Summary: It’s time again where Kyuhyun has to leave with the others to China… but what makes this departure different?
(I have concluded that I dislike summaries very much -_____-U)
Kyuhyun slumps further into the sofa of the living room, flipping through channels on the TV. In less then 8 hours, the members of Super Junior M will be on a flight heading to China. It isn’t that he doesn’t like the country, he loves it really - the enthusiastic fans, the caring staff, the warm welcomes, the rush of adrenaline of being in on stage in a different country and still be loved like your at home and the challenge of understanding another language.
But he won’t deny the fact that he is going to miss the streets of Korea - the bright neon hangul signs at night, the fans, the people and especially the members who won’t be coming.
Kyuhyun frowns and sighs. He isn’t the sentimental type, but the thought of leaving home for who-knows-how-long leaves an empty feeling in him. He looks at the clock on the wall - 1:34am. Ryeowook was already asleep, probably in Yesung’s embrace, and Eunhyuk and Sungmin were still out filming.
Sungmin…
The bright, pink-loving boys face lingers in his mind. He closes his eyes and listens intently at how his heart beats differently when he thinks of his hyung. Sungmin, to him, was special. Sure all the members hold a spot in his heart, but Sungmin has that special spot - a spot that nobody else will have. Whether it’s because they’ve been roommates for a long time or because of something else… Kyuhyun knows that his hyung will always draw out emotions and reactions that Kyuhyun himself never knew he had.
His concentration is interrupted when the front lights turn on and the door swings open. Eunhyuk and Sungmin tiredly drag their bodies into the dorm, their eyes half-closed and legs unwilling to go any further.
“Kyuhyun…?” Sungmin calls. Kyuhyun doesn’t miss how his heart flutters at Sungmin’s voice simply saying his name.
“Welcome back.” He says, turning off the TV and moving towards them. Eunhyuk yawns loudly in response and trudges off to his room.
“Are you going to shower Hyukkie?” Sungmin asks. Eunhyuk doesn’t even turn around as he answers, “No.” Sungmin crinkles his nose. “You really need to be more hygienic Hyukjae!” Whether annoyed or too tired to answer back, Eunhyuk shuts his bedroom door behind him.
Sungmin rolls his eyes and then looks to his side with curiosity. “Why are you still up Kyuhyun-ah? You have flight to catch in the morning!” He turns Kyuhyun around and pushes him towards their shared room. The younger couldn’t help the small laugh that escapes his lips. He also notes how the skin on his back tingles when Sungmin touches him.
“I’ll get plenty of sleep on the plane.” Kyuhyun voices, stifling a chuckle as Sungmin pushes him onto his bed and tries to tuck him into his covers. “Besides… I’m not tired.”
Sungmin pouts as he sees Kyuhyun’s reluctance. “Fine. But don’t blame me when airport pictures rise and you look like a panda.” He says as he strips himself of his jacket and shirt, leaving him in a simple singlet and jeans. Kyuhyun’s eyes rake up the slim yet muscular frame, trying to store it into his memories.
He discreetly lets his eyes follow his hyung’s movements around their room as he leans against the wall on his bed. His mouth goes dry as he sees how fluid Sungmin’s body is, how each muscle flexes when Sungmin bends a certain way. Resisting the urge to walk up to his hyung and wrap his arms around the body he craves, Kyuhyun crosses his arms and locks them in place as he sets his eyes elsewhere.
“I’m taking a shower.” Sungmin announces, a bundle of clothes in his arms. “Try to get some sleep Kyuhyun-ah.” With that their door clicks shut softly.
Kyuhyun stares at the door a while longer as his cheeks flush with images of Sungmin in the bathroom, stripping the remains of his clothes, stepping into the warm spray of water, lathering the body Kyuhyun yearns to touch, shampooing the hair Kyuhyun wants to comb. Kyuhyun closes his eyes and stops the images before it gets out of hand. It must be the feeling of post-homesickness that’s making him like this… Yeah. That’s it.
He doesn’t know how much time passed, but jumps when the door opens and Sungmin, hair dripping and body glistening, walks in. Kyuhyun smiles when he sees Sungmin wearing the pink oversized Doremon shirt his fans gave him and a pair of snug white shorts.
“I’ll never understand you and your obsession for pink.” Kyuhyun voices, chuckling when Sungmin throws a stuffed rabbit, another present from fans, at his face.
“I never asked you to.” Sungmin retorts, voice laced with playfulness.
Kyuhyun smiles as he watches his hyung move to sit on the bed across from his, towel in hand and drying his hair. Silence envelopes them as both males are lost in thought.
“You know… Ryeowook was crying the other day.” Sungmin says, face hidden by the towel. Kyuhyun waits for him to continue. “I don’t know what he said, but Yesung told me that Ryeowook was going to miss us and Korea. He fell asleep with Ryeowook clinging to his shirt.”
Kyuhyun blinks in response as Sungmin furiously dries his hair. “And last night I heard that Donghae was talking to his brother for 5 hours and that Siwon wa-“
“What are you trying to say hyung?” Kyuhyun says, wanting to know the point of Sungmin’s words. The elder let’s the towel fall and rest on his lap as he combs his hair into place with his hands. Kyuhyun’s fingers twitch at the ache of wanting to run his fingers through those locks.
Sungmin looks up at him with a steady gaze. “Are you sad too? Or worried?” Kyuhyun frowns. “Sad about what? Why do you think I’m worried?” Sungmin tilts his head to the side as he sits with his legs crossed.
“You seem mellow and calm on the outside,” Something in Sungmin’s eyes change, causing Kyuhyun to shiver and avoid eye contact. “, but I think I know you well enough to read the reason’s behind your actions.”
Surprised by the words, Kyuhyun looks at his hyung with confusion. “Like what?” he challenges. Sungmin lets out a small grin. “Like when you just sit there with your eyes closed, saying your tired or when you flip through a book or the TV channels, pretending like your interested when your not. Like when you have this dazed look in your eyes during programs or when we’re eating, or when you look like your listening to people, when actually your not.” Sungmin unfolds his legs and gets up to stretch. “While other members talk and cry about their worries and feelings, you keep quiet and to yourself. You just go into your own world in thought and don’t let anyone enter.”
Kyuhyun blinks back and frowns. Did he really do that? Everyone knows that he isn’t expressive type, so why was Sungmin telling him this? What does he expect him to do? Cry? Shout? Sure he was sad of leaving Korea, but he’s happy of going back to China. It’s not just him; he has Hankyung, Henry, Zhoumi, Ryeowook, Donghae and Siwon. He isn’t the only one who is being torn of mixed emotions.
“Earth to Kyuhyun!” Sungmin says, snapping his fingers in front of the younger males face. Kyuhyun blinks and snaps out of his thoughts. “See? You’re doing it again.” Sungmin puts his hands on his hips. He turns to walk towards the door. “It’d be nice if you tell me what’s worrying you once in a while. I’m your hyung, your roommate and friend, it’s not like I’m a nobody Kyuhyun-ah.” With that Sungmin swiftly leaves the room.
You’re far from a nobody…
Kyuhyun lets out a long breath and combs back his hair. As fast as he left, Sungmin quickly returns with two glasses and a bottle of the warm red liquid both Sungmin and Kyuhyun enjoy.
“Want to talk?” Sungmin says, smiling and handing a glass over to Kyuhyun. The younger stares at it and then to the person holding it. He lets out a small chuckle and accepts the offer.

“Is it just me, or does this leave your nose feeling all tingly?” Sungmin says, swishing the contents of the glass and staring at it intently. It was his 4th glass and Kyuhyun’s 5th as they are on the floor facing each other while resting against their beds.
Kyuhyun chuckles and gently sips his glass. He could feel his mind getting slightly hazy, but he was still coherent and aware of his surroundings. Unlike Sungmin, he had a high alcohol tolerance.
“What was this one called again?” He asks, staring at the alluring color of the liquid.
“Roggio del Filare. 2004. Italy.” Sungmin says, smiling proudly for he didn’t look at the bottle and knew what it was right away. Kyuhyun nods, also smiling as he stares at the bubbly male before him. Kyuhyun contemplates on whether he should take a bottle of this over to China with him. On those rare lonely nights, he could go on the terrace and enjoy this as he looks up to the endless stretch of the night sky.
“What was the one that we had last week?” Kyuhyun asks. Sungmin purses his lips in thought, making Kyuhyun’s eyes drift to those full luscious lips. He licks his own and clears his throat as he takes another sip of his glass.
“Chateua Lynch-Moussas. France.” Sungmin says finally, grinning ear to ear. Kyuhyun just nods and smiles back. How he wished that time would freeze like this…
They enjoy one more glass each and just talk about random things. Then, Sungmin says something that makes Kyuhyun blink back in confusion for he didn’t hear what the elder said.
“What was that?” Kyuhyun voices. His breath hitches when Sungmin looks at him. The elder’s cheeks were flushed pink, lips were parted slightly, eyes were glazed and the position he was seated was very… suggestive - knees up to his chest and spread.
“Will you miss me when you go?” Sungmin asks, eyes hopeful and lip in a small pout. Kyuhyun resists the urge to drop his glass and ravish every part of his hyung.
The wine must be getting to me…
Kyuhyun smiles reassuringly, slightly perplexed at the sudden question. Last time be left for China, Sungmin just smiled broadly, gave him a tight hug and a whisper of, “make us proud.”
So why was he acting like this? Kyuhyun then concludes that it’s the wine.
“Of course I’ll miss you hyung. You’re my roommate, it’d be weird to fall asleep without seeing your pink pajama’s.” Kyuhyun says playfully. Although he really meant it when he said he’d miss him.
“Am I nothing but just a roommate?” Sungmin whispers timidly, draining the glass and playing with it in his hands. Kyuhyun blinks with surprise but before he can say anything, Sungmin looks up at him and Kyuhyun definitely concludes that the wine has gotten to them both.
Sungmin closes the gap between them as he crawls over to Kyuhyun with a look of disappointment and sadness. In the moment where Kyuhyun blinks, Sungmin is on his lap with his hands caressing Kyuhyun’s hair and cheeks lovingly. “Am I nothing but a roommate?” Sungmin asks again, eyes searching Kyuhyun’s.
Kyuhyun drops the glass in his hand, luckily it didn’t break, but it tips and spills the remaining contents of the wine onto the floor. His hands find their way around Sungmin’s waist and neck; he gently strokes the skin behind Sungmin’s neck, making the elder shudder at the caring and ticklish touch.
“You… you’re more special to me then you can imagine.” Kyuhyun says, surprising himself at how calm and steady his voice is. So… it isn’t the wine?
His heart thumps, hard and loud, as Sungmin’s eyes glaze and the elder leans forward. Their lips touch and color explodes behind Kyuhyun’s closed lids. Sungmin tasted like warm sunshine and a hint of the wine. He fills Kyuhyun with an endless amount of affection that it made his heart expand beyond its limits.
Both pull back slowly; their lips were only inches apart as they feel each others warm breaths ghost over the others skin. Something told Kyuhyun he was going to remember this moment even when he’s a balding grandpa. The emotions he was feeling was amazingly unbearable - he could feel every part of him tingle, his heart swell with love, his head spin with hazy want, his hands move with tender touches and his lips wanting to move to say those words that will sum up his feelings for the elder.
But a small wall stops him. What happens when Sungmin doesn’t feel the same way? What happens if he looses their friendship because of this?
What happens when he leaves for China in a few hours?
Lips cover his again, breaking him out of his train of thought. Blinding warmth envelops him as he pulls Sungmin closer to him, tightening his arms. Sungmin pulls away gently, stroking Kyuhyun’s cheek and brushing his forehead.
“You were doing that again… the thinking thing.” Sungmin says, his voice steady but slightly breathless.
“You… you’re not drunk, are you?” Kyuhyun asks, rubbing small circles on Sungmin back and leaning forward to rest his face at the crook of Sungmin neck. He feels Sungmin’s giggle vibrate through the small body, making him smile. He inhales and looses himself in the intoxicating scent of the elder.
“Tipsy. But not drunk.” Sungmin mumbles as he continues to run his fingers through Kyuhyun’s hair. Kyuhyun grins slowly and places gentle kisses from Sungmin’s neck to his jaw. He feels Sungmin visibly relax in his embrace, his hands dropping to play with the neck of Kyuhyun’s shirt.
They share another kiss - longer, more passionate. When they pull away, Kyuhyun felt in synch with Sungmin; their breathing, their heartbeats, and their emotions.
“You should get some sleep… you leave in less then 5 hours.” Sungmin murmurs, pressing himself closer to the male beneath him and leaving butterfly kisses all over Kyuhyun’s face. Kyuhyun chuckles. “Then shouldn’t you get off of me?”
He hears Sungmin’s smile in his voice. “Don’t feel like it.”
Kyuhyun grins as he closes his eyes, his hand rubbing soothing circles under Sungmin’s shirt. Sungmin pulls back slowly and smiles, but Kyuhyun could see sadness in that smile.
“Come on, we should go to bed.” Sungmin says, getting up and helping Kyuhyun to his feet. Sungmin looks down at the mess on the floor.
“That’s going to stain.” He murmurs, pouting. “Ajumma is going to be pissed with us.”
Kyuhyun smirks playfully. “You mean, she’s going to be pissed with you. I’ll be in China by the time she sees it.”
As the words escape his mouth, Sungmin’s eyes take on a melancholy look, which doesn’t go unnoticed by Kyuhyun.
With quick movements, Sungmin cleans up the spill and puts the glasses and wine away. He turns off the lights and without another word, moves to his bed. Kyuhyun frowns, still standing, towards the direction of the elder. His eyes adjust to the darkness as he sees Sungmin squirming to get comfortable under the blankets. He quietly takes a few steps to hover over the elder, who has his back towards Kyuhyun.
“Can I join you?” Kyuhyun asks, his voice hopefully and worried. Why was Sungmin suddenly acting like this? But a smile graces his lips when Sungmin shifts towards the wall, his back still to Kyuhyun.
Kyuhyun slowly slides in between the covers and gently wraps secure arms around Sungmin’s body. His heart flutters as the familiar warmth is in his embrace. As he pulls Sungmin closer, the elder turns around to face Kyuhyun. Sungmin puts his hand on Kyuhyun’s chest and waist, while Kyuhyun has one arm under Sungmin and one around his back.
“Why are you suddenly so moody?” Kyuhyun asks, trying to lighten the mood, seeing that neither of them was going to get any sleep.
“You’re leaving…” Sungmin softly says, his hand on Kyuhyun’s chest curling to grip his shirt. Kyuhyun’s eyes soften as he places a kiss on the elder’s forehead and tightening his hold. Unsure of what to say, he just sums up his feelings and probably Sungmin’s as well. “We have horrid timing.” He grins when Sungmin nods.
“But,” Kyuhyun tilts Sungmin face towards his and places his lips over the elders. He pulls away with a breathless sigh, knowing he’s addicted and going to miss these kisses. “, we’re still young and I’ll be back as soon as you know it.” He adds with uncertainty. “Will you wait?”
He’s answered with tender kisses to his throat, jaw and ear. “I’m a patient man.” Sungmin whispers against Kyuhyun’s ear. The younger chuckles. “Good.”
“Do you… really?” Sungmin asks. Kyuhyun grins. “Do I what? You need to finish your question hyung.”
Sungmin takes a breath. “What I’m feeling right now and just then… do you feel the same?” Kyuhyun’s grin widens with amusement. “Hyung… how do I know what you were feeling just then and right now?” He didn’t need to look to see Sungmin pouting.
Sungmin bites his bottom lip in nervousness. “Do you… like me the way I like you?”
Kyuhyun answers with a slow languid kiss. Trying to show how much he cares for his hyung through the touch of their lips. They pull away slightly to breathe but then reclaim each other’s lips again.
“Does that answer your questions?” Kyuhyun asks, resting his forehead against Sungmin’s. He looks into those warm sparkling orbs and feels himself falling into their depths. He could make out Sungmin bright smile and his heart drums in his chest.
“Be safe, call me when you get lonely, listen to your hyungs, and yes, Donghae is your hyung, take care of your dongsaengs, and make sure you eat and keep Ryeowook company. He’s going to miss Yesung, I know.” Sungmin says, ticking off from the list in his head. “Don’t stay up too late playing games, cause I’m not there with you and nobody else is going to wake you up the next the day.” Kyuhyun chuckles at his hyung’s rambling.
“Shouldn’t I be going to sleep?” He asks innocently. Sungmin scowls. “Oh, yeah, now you want to go to sleep.”
Smiling, Kyuhyun pulls Sungmin closer to him, causing the elder to give him a soft slap on the chest because be can’t breath. Sleep slowly creeps over their minds and body as they relax into the warmth of each other.
The last thing Kyuhyun hears before he drifts off to sleep, dreading the moment where he has to wake up, is Sungmin’s gentle whisper.
“Make us proud. Make me proud.”
