Finally! A request (from like ten years ago) from yundbsk. It's a little different from what you gave me, but I tried to keep the essential there! This is only the first part, I need some time to figure out where I'm going with this ^^ Anyway, I hope you like it, dear!! :)
It’s a nice day. It’s a little bit cold for a July 29th, but it’s only 7am after all. The temperature will rise soon enough. At this very moment, Kim Junsu doesn’t really care though. He’s sitting on the floor of the dance studio, right beside the large windows. The sun warms him up and the view is comforting. It hardly changed since he became a trainee. The same practice room, the same schedule, the same people. Junsu lets out a sigh as he lay back on the wood tiles. ‘It’s all going to change now, right?’ he thinks. Last friday, the management announced that he was to debut and that his teammates were now decided. They all met the next day. There was Jung Yunho and Kim Jaejoong that Junsu already knew. They’ve been around for a while now. There was this kid named Shim Changmin who got into the agency under some weird circumstances. Well, that’s what he heard about him. Their last member wasn’t at the meeting. He was a guy named Park Yoochun, currently living in the States and he would only be here in five days.
★
The five days are over now and the soon-to-be singer sat there, basking in the sun, waiting for some dude from America and three other band mates. They’ll be known as Dong Bang Shin Ki, that’s what the director said. ‘It’s a tacky name’ Junsu thought, but it’s not like he have much to say about it. The first person to arrive after him is Changmin.
‘Good morning, hyung’ he says timidly.
Sometimes Junsu wonders if he’s ever gonna be able to go through an interview. He sits on one of the couch on the far end of the room and just, well he just sits there. It’s 7:38am now. Junsu sits up. Laying in the middle of the room was making him feel awkward. He smiles at Changmin for a moment before gazing outside once again. At 7:46am Yunho steps in. He greets Junsu with a easy smile and give a quick nod at youngest of them. You could basically see him tense as the other sat down on the other side of the couch. No one knows what Yunho ever told him that scared him like that, but the boy took it seriously. 7:58am and Jaejoong walks in with one person from the staff. Some kind of tension is in the air, like something is just waiting to explode, to begin. Only one person is missing now. Junsu gets up and started walking around a little, striking small talk with the members. The staff member tells them they will move to an other room as soon as they're all there. 8am and still waiting. Junsu may look calm, but really he's feeling restless. He waited for this moment for years and now it's finally here. Damn, would this guy get here one day? He had almost a week to get here.
★
8:04 am Kim Junsu meets Park Yoochun for the first time.
★
All eyes turns to him as the door open. He looks at all of them, a slightly confused look on his face. He must have get lost. He greets them with a clumsy Korean and a sheepish grin. Yunho is the first one to go to him and Jaejoong follows right after. Changmin gets up as Yunho introduces him. Junsu hesitates for a second. He just stares at them all from afar. 'So that's the people I'll spend my life with' . His heart clenches and he can't help but feel anxiety creeping up his spine. His eyes meet with the newcomer and he knows he's not the only one feeling nervous as hell. Junsu can't help it now. A bright smile on his face he goes to them.
'Hello, I'm Kim Junsu' he said 'Nice to meet you'

'Junsu-yah'
★
Junsu turns his head toward the one calling him from behind and twists awkwardly on the sofa trying to actually get a look. He hears the other man chuckle and decide to just give up. He plops back on the couch getting his attention back on that weird Japanese tv show airing.
'What do you want, Yoochun' he says
It's not like he didn't recognize his voice, they've been together basically 24/7 for 4 years now. Furthermore, they're the only one home.
'Make some place' the older one says, trying to push Junsu's leg off. 'I wanna cuddle'
'Go away'
It's past midnight there in Japan, yet the other members of Tohoshinki are still out filming. Junsu would be thankful about finishing early, but he can't help feeling bad about leaving them behind.
★
'You're not leaving us behind, come on! Go and get some rest.' Yunho had said with such a tired smile that Junsu would only feel worse about it. Stupid leader.
Yunho's words may not move Junsu's will, but their manager's words however did leave no choice.
'I'll wait for you guys' he said back then as the door of the van shut in front of him.
★
And there you have why the young man known by millions as Xiah is laying there at midnight, watching the most absurd Japanese TV show ever. Yoochun though, had no remorse at all about leaving before the others. Not that he was particularly happy about it, but he sure don't expect anyone to stay up just to wait for him if he ever finishes late.
★
12:45 am and Yoochun is just sitting on the floor, his back leaning against the couch. He occasionally glances at Junsu to check if he's sleeping.
'Why are you not going to sleep' Junsu asks after catching Yoochun staring at him for the fifth time.
'I'm waiting for you, idiot'
Junsu lets out a small laugh
'You know I'm not moving until the others arrives'
'Yeah, whatever'
Thirty minutes later Junsu is sound asleep on the couch and Yoochun found a way to squeeze himself there with him. The younger hardly moves as he gets pushed up. He doesn't hear Yoochun groaning a 'ugh, you're freaking heavy' and he doesn't realize the way he fits perfectly on Yoochun's chest. The latter shakes him awake an hour later when he hears someone unlocking the door. Junsu raises his head, eyes half-closed.
'You're still here?' he mumbles trying to figure how and when he ended up on top of Yoochun like that
He's about to just go back to sleep and Yoochun can only chuckle as he ruffles the younger man's hair.
'They're back' he whispers softly
Junsu's eyes grow visibly bigger and he rushes out of Yoochun's lap.'Welcome back!' he hears from the living room. He can practically hear Yunho's faint smile as he reprimand Junsu for staying up, his voice soft and hushed. He can tell that Jaejoong already pulled Junsu into a hug and that their youngest member is already walking pass them with a yawn and amusement in his eyes.
★
That's what Yoochun calls 'the Junsu effect' and sometimes that said effect is a little bit too much for him to handle. However, he has too much pride to admit it.

Once again Junsu is all smiles and all too happy to crack crappy jokes. He can't help it. It's like some kind of reflex that kicks in when things are bad and right now, performing in a wheelchair is something that Junsu considers really bad. Why does he have to feel like a burden?
★
'All I can do is smile and pretend I don't care' he thinks as Changmin cringes at his latest oyaji gag.
'I'll never get why the fans go crazy for this' he says getting up, heading for the food table
Junsu's smile slowly fades and he goes back to his phone. Those stupid little games are addicting. He carefully adjusts his position on the small couch. People are rushing around, making sure everything is in place for the last rehearsal before the concert. Once in a while someone checks on him, as if they all take turn to make sure he hasn't do anything stupid again. Junsu smiles and they go away. If he just shows one sign of pain, they'll put him back into that stupid wheelchair and god knows he hates that rolling piece of metal. Halfway through level 17, Junsu feels someone sitting beside him, leaning on his shoulder. He puts back a smile and quickly glances. Yoochun is here craning his neck, looking at the screen.
'You're getting pretty good at this game' he says
'I know, I know' Junsu answers 'I'll beat your high score soon enough'
For a couple of minutes they just sit there. Yoochun doesn't say a word and Junsu only let out a couple of frustrated sighs when he dies and laughs when he beats the level. Most of the staff has moved from the changing room, someone came a couple of minutes ago to tell them to be ready for rehearsal in 20 minutes. Then Yoochun speaks up.
'Junsu'
'What is it? Hey, do you wanna hear my new oyaji gag?' Junsu cuts him, his eyes still on the screen
'No please, no'
'Okay, it goes like th-'
'Junsu'
This time Junsu pauses the game.
'Are you okay?' Yoochun continues 'Don't joke around this time, just tell me, honestly'
The young man meets his eyes for a moment, but looks down quickly. He glances around the room, no one is paying attention to them. Junsu stays silent. Yoochun goes on.
'You...You know since we met, you've always been smiling, Junsu. That's all you ever showed me, smiles. And, yeah it's cheesy I know, but-'
'Well, you always are cheesy' Junsu cuts with a faint smile
'But' Yoochun mirrors the smile 'but somehow I can tell them apart, your smiles'
Junsu's defence is crumbling down. He mutters a 'what are you talking about' and tries to put a smile on. He looks at Yoochun's eyes once again
'You're not okay, Junsu' Yoochun says 'and we both fucking know it'
There's a silence, Junsu's breath hitches. He opens his mouth as to say something, but closes it again. At this very moment, Yoochun realize that the Junsu effect will be the end of him someday. He gently puts his hands on Junsu's shoulders. He runs them soothingly over his arms. They stay like that for a instant, Junsu trying to put his thoughts together and form a sentence. He looks up to Yoochun and says:
'It sucks'
Yoochun sees the tears in his eyes. He brings Junsu closer to him, delicately, and hold him close.
'You really have a way with words' he says, breath puffing on Junsu's neck
'Shut up' he replies and his voice cracks slightly
Junsu's arms come up around his neck, clinging to the man as he cries for the first time in years. Yoochun soothes him, whispers comforting words in his ear.
