Eunhyuk is practicing alone again. He pushes himself to the limits, practicing his dancing at all hours. In the public, he is the 'dance machine', but it's taken him a lot of work to get there. Before the music ends, Eunhyuk leans against the mirror, dizzy. The room is spinning slightly, but he shakes his head, determined to continue. He plays the music again, launching into a fierce dance. He is lost in the music, and does not notice Hankyung standing silently in the doorway. The music pauses for a beat, and Eunhyuk grips his head as he staggers. He's dizzy, it's cold, and he feels sick. But he has to practice, so he continues on relentlessly.
~~~~
Hankyung watches Eunhyuk dance. He worries when he sees Eunhyuk stop in the middle of a routine. Hankyung steps in silently.
"Hyukjae?" He says. Eunhyuk spins to face him… and promptly collapses onto the ground.
~~~~
Eunhyuk is pale and sleeping. Hankyung carefully places a cool cloth on Eunhyuk's forehead. A fever…? This isn't good… He always tries to push himself beyond his limits.
~~~~
Hankyung tells Leeteuk. Leeteuk freaks out and calls their manager. Their manager calls the hospital, and Eunhyuk is sent to the hospital for a checkup. The doctors frown, the prognosis is not good. It's something they haven't seen for a long time. They grimly tell Hankyung that Eunhyuk has swine flu. Hankyung nods solemnly, promising to take good care of him.
~~~~
Eunhyuk wakes up in the middle of the night, delirious. Hankyung gets up sleepily, placing a cool hand on Eunhyuk's hot forehead.
"Hyung…?" Eunhyuk gasps weakly, eyes filled with pain. Hankyung nods.
"I'll get some water." He tells Eunhyuk, who whispers a quiet word of thanks. Hankyung disappears for a few minutes, and Eunhyuk tosses on his sweat dampened bed. Then Hankyung is back at his side, lifting his head up gently and letting water slide down his throat.
Hankyung stays by Eunhyuk's side all night, nursing him back to health. When morning comes, Eunhyuk feels much better, and is ever so grateful to Hankyung for taking such good care of him.
So when Hankyung gets sick a few days later, it's Eunhyuk's turn to nurse him back to health. Even sick, Hankyung retains his usual calm demeanor.
And when Hankyung tells Eunhyuk, "Hyukjae, I really like you," Eunhyuk looks at him and smiles.
"I like you too, Hankyung hyung."
Fin.
