“No mom! I.don’t.want.to.go!” Sungmin said with finality then turning his back and stomping his feet on the carpeted floor, once, twice then thrice until he felt his feet getting cramps from too much stomping.
Being mad was an understatement if he would describe his feelings now. He was furious, totally furious at what his mom planned for him.
Leeteuk sigh in frustration but held his stance this time. Sungmin wouldn’t get away with it easily even if the brat one throws tantrums on him. He already missed a lot of good opportunities from the past because he kept on listening to his ‘baby’ boy but enough is enough. He will not let Sungmin ruin his perfect plan for this coming weekend. And if it means dragging his brat ‘baby boy’ to that place, he will do so even though it will create great trouble for the two of them.
“Sungmin! Whether you like it or not you will come with me this weekend. Don’t try running away from me cos that will not work and don’t you ever try to talk your daddy Kangin out of it cos I assure you, he will not listen to you.” Leeteuk was running for his breath the moment he finished his litany. It was a long statement without even a pause but he wish that Sungmin will take his threat seriously.
“Mom~” Sungmin whined, turning around to flash his pitiful eyes to his mom, trying a different tactic this time. If his old ways will not work, he might as well resort to his last defense.
“Don’t mom me. I am serious over this. If you ever try to ditch this activity, prepare yourself to be thrown out of the house without any food, clothes and money. And I will burn all your pink stuffs in front of you. Mark my words, Sungmin.” Then Leeteuk left Sungmin alone inside his room with a loud thud of the door. Once outside, he shook his head and calmed his nerves then walking to where his husband’s small library was to talk to him.

“I don’t really know what Sungmin's problem is. They used to be best of friends, remember? They were always together. What happened to them? I haven’t seen them together since we had our vacation at Jeju and that was almost two years ago.” Leeteuk complained to his husband who was busy reading a report in his computer.
Leeteuk then started massaging his husband’s shoulder before trailing his hands down on Kangin’s chest, warming him up in the process. Knowing that Leeteuk wouldn’t leave him alone, he pulled his eyeglass off then clipped it on his working table and held the hands that hug him from behind.
“Mommy, don’t you think you are being too harsh to Sungmin? He’s only twenty-two. Let him enjoy his life first.” Kangin said slowly, still trying to defend his one and only son from his ‘wife’s’ plan although he agreed to the plan without even a slight protest. He also wanted what’s best for his son and he worries a lot too for Sungmin’s future. Leeteuk’s plan served as a security blanket for them to know that Sungmin will have a good life in the future.
“Dad, he should be with him two years ago. I can’t be in peace if they aren’t together yet, same goes with Heechul. I swear that guy really freaks me out every time we talked about it. Besides, I just want what’s best for my baby.” Leeteuk said while trying to convince his husband even more. He knew Kangin support his decision but he needed an assurance from the man he married 24 years ago.
“I know mommy, I know. And I support you and your plans because that’s how much I love you.” Kangin whispered back then tilting his head to the side, he gave Leeteuk a kiss on the cheek, a warm kiss, reassuring his beloved that everything will be alright.
~~
Sungmin was still fuming inside his room. He had thrown his pillows on the wall like a madman and ripped the music sheets resting on his keyboard from too much anger. He cannot believe his mom walked out on him just like that. He cannot believe his tactics didn’t work on him now. Those two best techniques he mastered for his own sake. He cannot understand why until now his mom wanted him to hang out with his best friend’s son.
Sungmin sat down on his bed when he felt himself getting tired from his tantrums. He knew it was a childish act and he shouldn’t be doing those things considering that he was already in his twenty’s but he cannot control his self. Well, he only become like this when something provokes him. And only one thing provokes him from acting that way. No. Not one thing but one person to be honest. Only one person and Sungmin can feel the anger from rising again inside his chest just by thinking of the name of that person.
He fisted his knuckles and look at the wall with fiery eyes as if seeing the face of the man that irritates him the most.
~~
“Teukkie! Glad to see you again.” Heechul greeted Leeteuk the moment he saw his best friend waiting inside the café. They decided to meet in one place then will do a convoy to one of Heechul’s vacation houses to spend their weekend there.
“I missed you Chullie-ah. Still looking like a diva, I see.” Leeteuk kissed both Heechul’s cheeks in greetings then turning to greet the tall handsome man behind him. “Is this Kyuhyun? Oh it’s so nice to see you after two long years. Europe’s climate suits you, dear. Come here and give your Aunt Teukie a kiss.” Leeteuk urge Kyuhyun to come forward then hold the younger man’s face to give him a kiss on both cheeks. Kyuhyun just gave him a tepid smile.
“Well, well, well. I see someone just grow more beautiful here aside from me. Sungminnie baby! Aren’t you going to greet your most beautiful auntie here? Didn’t you miss me, darling?” Heechul tapped Sungmin’s shoulder with his fan when Sungmin just remain seated in his seat. Then laugh when Sungmin pouted his lips but jump on his feet to give him a sound kiss on both cheeks which Heechul met with the same kind of kiss too.
After the greet and meet portion, Leeteuk and Heechul started talking to each other, trying to update each other with what was happening in each other’s life. Heechul, Kyuhyun and Hangeng just arrived from Paris where the ‘mother and son’ spent their two years living away from Korea while Hangeng simultaneously travel from Beijing, South Korea and Paris for business purposes. While to Kyuhyun and Sungmin, the mere presence of the other seems like non-existent as they keep on ignoring each other. Their eyes were obviously scanning the place, each pair of eyes looking everywhere except to each other until it finally get too awkward standing quietly behind their mothers. They were acting like a total stranger and none notice the spark that appeared from their mothers’ eyes.
After almost ten minutes of awkward silence, Heechul finally broke the thick cloud that amassed around them when he said, “Come on, Teukkie let’s continue this talk when we are already in the car. “, which was agreed upon by Leeteuk when he followed the other outside the café. The two people took a deep sigh and followed their mommies, Sungmin who obviously didn’t want to find his self alone with Kyuhyun run to catch up with his mother but accidentally bump Kyuhyun on the side. He continued to run without a backward glance or even a short apology to the stunned man.
Kyuhyun clutched his side and watched Sungmin run to his mother, smirking when Sungmin looked back and caught his gaze then afterwards he stuck his tongue out in irritation.
Silly Min
~
“Okay, here’s the arrangement. Leeteuk and I will be in my car while you and Sungmin will be in the other car. Now, I don’t want to hear any protest from either of you, got it?” Heechul threatened the both of them when Sungmin started shaking his head in protest while Kyuhyun remained stone face. Heechul crossed his hands in his chest then stare hard at Kyuhyun who tried to open his mouth but held his tongue back cos well, Heechul’s eyes were scary and he didn’t want him to swallow him alive. The same goes to Sungmin who was left with no other choice but to follow Heechul’s command. Well, if Heechul thought that Sungmin was an easy to talk to ‘kid’ he was wrong because when Sungmin turned around and walked to his mom’s car, he was stomping his feet hard on the ground then closed the door of the passenger seat with a loud bang!
Heechul was left agape at what kind of tantrum Sungmin showed to him and looked unbelievably at Leeteuk who just clipped his shoulders in an ‘I-told-you-so’ manner.
~
Sungmin’s brows were crossed while his hands were in his chest that made Kyuhyun sigh heavily before opening the door to the driver seat. He knew Sungmin didn’t want to be with him and what his mom did only fueled the fury that Sungmin was feeling for him. Kyuhyun didn’t have an idea why Sungmin decided to stop his communication with him after their last vacation together which was exactly two years ago. Okay, maybe he had an idea but it was absolutely absurd to be bothered by that one thing. If he will be asked about his opinion he will admit that Sungmin was more than happy after that.
“Really Sungmin, you still haven’t changed.” Kyuhyun started the moment they made themselves comfortable inside Leeteuk’s car, well almost since sitting rigidly while driving was far from being comfortable but he will not let Sungmin’s mood hinder his plan for today and the rest of the weekend.
He started the engine and followed Heechul’s car which was already far from them. Well Sungmin decided to sit in the passenger seat so Kyuhyun was left with no other choice but to take over the wheel and drive. Although he hated to drive a long distance, he was still glad that Sungmin didn’t choose the back seat or else it would definitely hurt his ego, big time, because he will look like Sungmin’s driver.
Instead of replying, Sungmin looked outside the window and pretended to watch the scenery unfolding in front of his eyes. He tried to calm his self from the nervousness that he was feeling since the moment he saw Kyuhyun walking inside the café. He must admit, after two years of not seeing each other, Kyuhyun grew into a handsome man considering that he was older than him by two years. The young looking man Sungmin used to tease before had developed some muscles in his shoulder and the wide expanse of his chest make Sungmin’s hands itch. He folded his fingers in a tight fist to keep him from reaching the man and touches him the way he wanted to touch him. Of course not the innocent type of touch. He was so different from the last time they saw each other and Sungmin, as much as he tried to deny the intense attraction he was feeling right now, he cannot. It was too obvious with the way his heart beating wildly inside his chest and the heat that engulfing his entire body which was unexplainable because it’s quite cold inside the car. He cannot deny but Sungmin didn’t say that he cannot pretend. And he pretended that he didn’t care at all.
After promising his self that he will not talk to this man no matter what, Sungmin close his eyes and ignore Kyuhyun. He was planning to sleep all the way until they finally reach their destination but Kyuhyun wouldn’t take his silence as an answer and so he continued to pester the older man. “You’ve grown more beautiful. Mommy’s right, you know. Still pretty and well you become sexier and hotter than the last time I saw you.” Kyuhyun bit his lower lip to stop the smirk from coming out of his lips but his eyes glistened with mischief.
What he said was true and the mere fact that his eyes darted every now and then at Sungmin’s side and spot the differences in his body makes him hot at the thought of touching it the way he touched it two years ago. Although Sungmin acted indifferent towards him after that incident, it only made Kyuhyun wanted Sungmin even more. His elopement after that didn’t even hinder his desire to make Sungmin his but instead it lighted the fire of wanting to claim him now, right here in the moving car.
Again and again. Hell, one wasn’t enough. It will never be enough for him.
But he still got no response so Kyuhyun tried again, “You should atleast showed my mom that you are glad to see me. He’ll get brokenhearted after what you’ve shown him.” Well, Kyuhyun was kind of hoping that applying a reverse psychology to Sungmin will make the other talk. He really missed him, his voice, his playful teasing and his caring attitude towards him. He missed the old Sungmin, his childhood friend, his best friend, his buddy. His… But he knows it was not yet the right time to blurt those things out. He might be confident that Sungmin feels the same way too but hell it has been so long since he talked to this man. Things could have changed, a lot.
“Oh come on Kyuhyun. He’s too thick skinned. He doesn’t even have a single sensitive bone in his body to get hurt that easily.” Sungmin finally said. One eyebrow rose at what Kyuhyun just said even if he had his eyes still closed. Sungmin wasn’t paranoid but he can feel the other man looking at him from time to time. Maybe getting intimate with someone even if it was just an accident really made you aware of the other. Maybe because you have shared some intimate and private thing with him that made you sense his movement, feel whatever feelings he has at that moment even without actually looking at him.
“I miss you. Do you really hate me that much that you’ve never answered my calls, texts and all my messages in your Facebook account?” Kyuhyun asked, trying not to sound hurt but there was still a hint of pain in his voice. It was unrecognizable but it was still there and Sungmin felt it. He heard it loud and clear.
“I am confused.” Sungmin admitted. Maybe now was the right time for them to talk about what happened two years ago. They were alone in the car and even if Kyuhyun was driving, he was driving too slowly so accident was far from happening. Even if they shout to each other, vent their frustration to each other, no one will hear them. Whatever things they did inside the car, no one will know, no one will notice. Maybe, this is the right time.
“What is there to be confused about? What we did was natural. Mom and Dad always do it as well as your parents. Or are you that embarrass of your preference? Well I didn’t know that you are a racist.” Kyuhyun spat the last words. He didn’t want to taunt the other man but that was the only logical reason he can think of as to why Sungmin evaded him for two years. So he’s right. What happened to them two years ago was the reason why Sungmin decided to stay away from him. Fuck.
“Hey, how dare you say that to my face? Of all the people in my life, you should be the one who totally knows me.” Sungmin sat properly this time and glared at Kyuhyun. He cannot accept what the other man said about him. How can he judge him that easily when his parents are both gay and he was surrounded with gay people? Not to mention that he was gay too.
“Then what are you so confused about?” Kyuhyun‘s voice toned down. He didn’t want to hurt Sungmin and so he chooses his words carefully this time.
Should I tell him? Should I reveal my feelings toward him now? Is it the best decision to make at this time? Sungmin got quiet as he ponders on the next move he will make.
Kyuhyun waited for Sungmin to speak again but when minute had passed by without a word from the other man, Kyuhyun finally asked, “Did you regret what happen to us?”
“I…” That question caught him off guard. Did he really regret it?
Sungmin closed his eyes and soon his mind brought him to that time when they were sharing intimacies with each other. Kyuhyun’s kisses, touches, the way the man’s skin feel against his own, the heat of their bodies, the painful invasion when Kyuhyun finally claimed him, the magnificent moment when they both cum. Even if it was past two years already Sungmin can still feel those things as if it only happened a few minutes ago.
Did he really regret it?
“I..I don’t want to talk about it anymore.” Sungmin said with finality, then pushed a button to recline his seat and laid his back and pretend to sleep. He knew he was being a coward but he cannot yet tell Kyuhyun how he really feels.
Why? Because Sungmin still doubt Kyuhyun’s intentions or his feelings even if he can feel that they shared the same feelings to each other.
Kyuhyun huffed before pushing the accelerator and drive the car in full speed, totally getting mad at being ignored by Sungmin, again. He was getting frustrated and hurt but he knew he cannot force the man to talk about his feelings. Knowing how brat Sungmin can be, he will surely just keep his mouth close and shut him down totally from his life if he wanted to. He didn’t want that. He didn’t want Sungmin to hate him or reject him or be mad at him but he will make sure that after this vacation, he will find out why Sungmin got mad at him.
~~
“Did they kiss?” Leeteuk inquired then giggled like a high school girl while busy driving Heechul’s car.
“Hmp! Not yet. My boy is too slow. I already told him to grab and kiss Sungmin once he locked the door.” Heechul answered in irritation. He crossed his arms on his chest then blew on his bangs while looking at the rearview mirror.
“Don’t blame Kyuhyun, my boy is just acting hard to get. Tsk tsk. I really don’t know why Sungmin suddenly avoided Kyuhyun. I swear when we were in Jeju I can hear wedding bells chiming loud and clear in the air with the way the two were looking at each other. There were sparks everywhere they went. Then poof! Sungmin suddenly didn’t want to talk to Kyuhyun anymore. ” Leeteuk’s sullenly answered.
“Right after we locked them inside their door.” Heechul second the motion.
“I fucking swear Kyuhyun hit first based that night.” Heechul said once again then cursed when Leeteuk added, “And Sungmin keeps on calling his name.”
“It looks like they enjoyed it. So what happened?” Heechul asked, eyebrows creasing as if analyzing one of the world’s most bizarre problems he ever encountered.
“Hmn..maybe Sungmin didn’t like to be in the bottom.” Leeteuk supplied that made Heechul looked at him weirdly. “You do know how good it is to be on the bottom, right?” He asked slowly then Leeteuk replied with a grin, “Of course. I wouldn’t trade it to be on top. No way!”
Then the two laugh weirdly, filling the car with their annoying and devilish laughter.
~~
“We’re here Min.” Kyuhyun called out after turning off the engine. He stretched his arms up and arched his back a little to get rid of the cramps in his muscles from driving that far.
Sungmin remained unmoving and Kyuhyun swear he heard him snore a bit too softly. He chuckled quietly at the cuteness, not really wanting Sungmin to wake up over his laughter because well he doesn’t want to offend the man then receive a punch from him afterwards.
Kyuhyun turned his body to Sungmin’s side and saw the cute man blowing air out of his mouth. Sungmin was looking ridiculous but Kyuhyun thought he’d never seen Sungmin this uber cute before.
Kyuhyun felt his heart stop beating for a while then resuming in a faster speed as he realize how much he missed him. There was no exact word to describe his feelings now. All he ever wanted was for the time to literally stop so he can continue to watch Sungmin in his sleep.
Sungmin stirred from his position then turning to his side and giving Kyuhyun a better view on his cute bunny face. Kyuhyun’s eyes turn to gloomy and a small smile appeared on his lips when he remember the times when they were both okay with each other. Those times when they can touch each other freely, smile at each other, look at each other, tease each other or even just sit beside each other with Sungmin’s head lying on his shoulder. He missed those simple things but most of all he missed Sungmin the most.
Tap tap!
Kyuhyun was woken up from his reminiscence when he heard a loud tap on the car’s window then saw Leeteuk signaling him with his fingers to get out of the car.
He had no choice but to shake Sungmin a little rough although he knew that Sungmin was a deep sleeper. He can actually sleep while the world was being destroyed by aliens, Kyuhyun thought, remembering how his precious game has been on hold because his mom wouldn’t let him play it unless he will make up with Sungmin this weekend.
Biting his lower lip, Kyuhyun positions his fingers on Sungmin’s waist with the intention of waking the man with the only thing he knows will make him open his eyes. He prepared his self from receiving a deadly punch then started to move his fingers up on the waist, attacking him hard by tickling him. Sungmin jolted from his sleep the first few times he felt those fingers on his skin but chose to remain still until he cannot control his body anymore and now he was moving away from those invading fingers.
“Oh God stop it! Hahahaha!” Sungmin screamed while holding his hands to defend his poor waist. Kyuhyun was too caught up with Sungmin’s smiling face that instead of heeding the plea he just continued his playful attack, this time aiming Sungmin’s underarms.
“Oh no, I will not! This is your punishment for sleeping while I’m driving!” He shouted then poking Sungmin’s unprotected right armpit where Sungmin shrieked the loudest when he hit it.
“Fuck! Stop it! Okay fine, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Just stop, please? Eeeee…” Sungmin screamed once more when Kyuhyun manage to tickle his waist (because he had his hands under his armpits leaving that part unprotected) then screamed again when Kyuhyun hit his left armpit when he tried to protect his waist from those invading fingers.
The playful act continued for a little while more where Sungmin tried to defend his body at the same time wanting to get even to Kyuhyun by tickling him back until they felt themselves getting sweaty inside the car and ran out of breath. Sungmin for the last time raise his hands up in the air in surrender while gasping for that much needed oxygen. Kyuhyun was panting too and acknowledging Sungmin’s surrender from their ‘tickling war’, he dropped his body on his seat while hands crossed around his chest.
The car now suddenly filled pants as the two tried to catch up their breaths.
“Let’s go.” Sungmin said after they got their needed rest, opening the side of his door and moving out without sparing Kyuhyun a glance. Kyuhyun followed but he’s having a hard time wiping off the smile from his lips.
Maybe for the first time, his mother was right. Something good will happen to him in this vacation.
~~
“Mom! Where are you?!” Sungmin called out, his voice echoing around the almost lifeless house as he tried to locate for his missing parent. The house wasn’t big at all. It only has two bedrooms, a kitchen and a living room although because of the lack of too many furniture and fixtures, it was spacious enough to move decently even with a small group of people inside.
“Sungmin, I think they went at the back of the house. My mom’s not here too.” Kyuhyun responded at once when he heard the almost panicky voice of Sungmin from the door.
“Mom! Mom!” Sungmin once again called, feet shuffling to where the kitchen was and going out through the back door while still screaming ‘mom’ on top of his lungs.
Kyuhyun can only close his eyes and sigh deeply as he watched Sungmin’s retreating back. If his hunch was correct, he will find his self and Sungmin alone for the entire day here in this house, tending to themselves since not a single soul can be found anywhere. Kyuhyun knew an old couple had been assigned by his dad as caretaker for this property and now he wondered where the hell they were. They should be here welcoming them and greeting them firsthand, right? He mused but it was gone the moment Sungmin re-entered again the house, this time using the front door.
“They’re not here. I can’t find them anywhere, Kyu! Where are they?!” Sungmin shouted and Kyuhyun fought back from cringing at the tone of his voice even though it didn’t ring well in his ears. He slowly turned around to face the older man and his heart almost got broken when he saw that Sungmin was on the verge of crying. His eyes were already moist and his lips were slightly trembling but what made his heart almost break apart was the fear he saw in Sungmin’s eyes. Why? Did he really hate him that much that even if it was obvious that he wasn’t really alone, Sungmin was still feeling scared?
He thought everything was in a smooth sailing after they had their moments back in the car but what was this he was seeing? Why was Sungmin acting as if he will harm him?
“Sungmin ~“Before Kyuhyun can console him a loud booming noise from the outside distracted them. Sungmin automatically covered his ears with his palms and squat down and it finally dawned to Kyuhyun why Sungmin was scared.
There were lightning and thunder. How come he didn’t notice the sudden gloomy weather? Was it because he was too distracted with Sungmin’s laughter way back in the car that he didn’t almost notice his surroundings? Was it because of the too close proximity of their bodies that he didn’t even realize that the bright sun hid behind dark clouds and that rain was threatening to fall down any minute from now?
As if on cue, another thunder was heard followed by a lightning then heavy drops of rain poured angrily down from the dark sky, creating patterns of noise on the roof. Sungmin called out his mom again and it was only then that Kyuhyun woke up from his stillness and strode to where Sungmin was.
“Min, it’s okay. Don’t worry, I’m here.” Kyuhyun pulled Sungmin’s shivering body and trapped him into his embrace, one hand moving up and down on Sungmin’s back. How can he be stupid? Of course Sungmin was scared of thunder, a thing he wasn’t able to outgrown while here he was being his selfish self, getting hurt and thinking preposterous things against Sungmin. What a shame Kyuhyun, what a shame.
“It’s okay Min. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” He kept on repeating those words although it confused Sungmin why Kyuhyun was saying sorry, he let it go and instead moving his body closer to Kyuhyun’s warmth.
It felt good. Everything about Kyuhyun felt good, Sungmin thought.
