3. I Think U Know
---
Jung Yunho forced himself to breath in and out slowly. Yes, breathing was very important.
His partner, seventeen-year-old Shim Changmin, looked over at him with skeptical eyes.
“Hyung, it’s an awards show,” Changmin said, slow and sarcastic. “We’ve been to them before. You know, the events that you get shiny medals and your ego stroked?”
Yunho chuckled, “Sorry, I’m just…nervous.”
“No shit,” the other mumbled as he began changing into their show clothes. Changmin held up a monstrous amount of necklaces with a look of distaste. “Damn, are they trying to strangle us?”
Yunho finally looked at his evening wardrobe and sighed. Great, he was going to look tacky and gaudy in front of-
Then a light bulb went off in his mind and ignored Changmin’s call as he ran to their stylist to ask for permission. He was going to change it a little.
Coming back grinning like a cat, Yunho grabbed his selection and quickly checked himself in the mirror. He needed to impress his sunbae and he was willing to go the whole nine yards.
“You do know Kim Jaejoong was one of the most fashionable idols of his day right?” Changmin asked as he pulled on his pants. “Impressing him will be a difficult task.”
“…was I that obvious?” Yunho asked with a sheepish smile.
“Since day one,” the younger man replied without a pause. Changmin looked Yunho up and down before taking off the pants he’d just put on. “Here, wear these. They should be tighter.”
“Eh, Chang-”
“You don’t have a butt,” Changmin said deadpanned. “JYJ’s Kim Junsu was famous for his ‘duckbutt’ and the other two have given it lavish praise. You could at least try.”
“But it’s not like I’m trying to seduce him or anything like that!” Yunho chuckled nervously, obviously uncomfortable, accepting the smaller pants.
“Could have fooled me,” Changmin muttered under his breath. “Here I thought you loved him.”
“Changmin!” the older yelled and flung a necklace at the younger’s retreating back.
Yunho grumbled insults towards his partner but pulled on those pants anyways. Turning around to inspect himself in the mirror, he merely frowns when he realizes:
Damn, Changmin was right. This pair does look better.
Outside the door, Changmin shakes his head in exasperation. Only his hyung would crush on a man twenty-four years older.

“And the winner of the best album of the year is…”
Jaejoong sat offstage watching the other host stop dramatically and open the sealed envelope. He hasn’t seen the boy for the whole night-he missed their performance because of a stupid mix-up, and he’s only caught glimpses.
“…Dong Bang Shin Ki!”
A roar of elated fans busted his eardrums. He looks down to hide his discomfort and when he finally looks back up again, Jaejoong had to say it was hard not to appreciate the view.
The nineteen year old was walking up the steps, the tight jacket hugged all the right places and the gentle strain of his pants across his but-stop, Jaejoong willed himself and looked away. You’re forty-three not a hormonal thirteen year old, he scolded himself.
Caught up in his own world, Jaejoong missed Yunho’s searching eyes and disappointment when the younger saw his sunbae hadn’t been looking.
