There's Something Magic in Your Eyes
In the Wake of Saturday
Super Junior: Kyuhyun/Zhou Mi
“Are you ready?” Kyuhyun asks to break the taller man of his thoughts.
Zhou Mi nods and walks closer to the door. Kyuhyun taps his pockets to make sure he has his keys and pulls off his jacket. He throws it over the other man’s head.
“After you,” Kyuhyun says as he pushes the door open and locks it behind him.
He leads his companion to the passenger side of his car and unlocks the door for him. Zhou Mi is wearing an expression that displays everything Kyuhyun has ever wanted to see. When the man gets comfortable in the seat, Kyuhyun closes the door and makes his way around the car.
“Alright, where to?”
Kyuhyun starts the car. He looks at Zhou Mi and takes note of the pink tint of his cheeks. The sight reminds him of a first date but without the awkward speech from a worried father. Zhou Mi gives directions in between random outbursts about things he likes. Kyuhyun watches the road carefully but doesn’t really put too much thought into where he is. He focuses on what his passenger is saying, and he probably says as much. The man giggles. Kyuhyun replays that giggle all the way to Zhou Mi’s apartment.
The car is in park, but neither man makes a move. Kyuhyun decides he may as well start.
“Would you like to go out with me sometime?”
Kyuhyun ponders the look on Zhou Mi’s face while the man tries to form an answer.
Kyuhyun doesn’t know much about the man, sexual preference included. The man may be freaked out by such a request. He may think badly of him for asking such a thing. He may be offended for being asked to settle for someone like Kyuhyun.
But somewhere inside, Kyuhyun hangs on to the chance that Zhou Mi may say yes.
“I would, but my heart is kind of broken. I don’t think I’m ready to start anything right now.”
Kyuhyun looks down for a while, hiding the fact that he is disappointed. He pulls out a pen and places the man‘s left hand over his own. He begins to scribble some numbers out that he hopes the rain won‘t smear. The lasting power of the ink is his only hope.
“That’s fine. If you change your mind, though, give me a call or something.”
Zhou Mi smiles as he folds Kyuhyun’s jacket and puts it in the space he was warming. He opens the door to leave but stops. He presses his lips to Kyuhyun’s cheek, and Kyuhyun feels nothing but sunshine. Zhou Mi whispers his thanks in the driver’s ear and steps out of the car. He walks to the entrance to the lobby, standing outside for a bit longer to wave.
Kyuhyun watches the man disappear behind the boring door. He turns the key and puts the car in drive. He still hears the man’s laughter. While he waits for the traffic light to change, he sees a rainbow. He supposes some days change for the better.
