Go crazy, get hurt, be trapped chapter 21
Puzzled gazes carefully watched the newcomer, unsuccessfully trying to understand the “again” added in that particular sentence. However, only I knew clearly the statement was directed to me. Those eyes full of longing resting on my figure were distressing - how I wished to leave this place as soon as possible. “That’s it for today, sirs” The CEO finally released us from that cramped meeting room, which was actually relieving. Hastily collecting my belongings, I merged in the crowd of executives. Thankfully, I was able to escape from that frightening person.
Desperately walking along the large halls, my cellphone suddenly rang. The screen displayed the caller’s id: Changmin. Although hesitant, I pressed the answer button, warmly greeting my friend. “My beloved friend…” he answered on the other side of the line using a sarcastic intonation, which made me wince - how come Yunho was so fast to gossip around? “… Yes?” I sweetly spoke feigning ignorance, hoping I was wrong about that predicament. “You, me and Kyuhyun at the usual restaurant today. The least you two could do for leaving me in the darkness about your secret relationship is paying me a meal” Changmin stubbornly demanded, causing me to growl in indignation - why was he thinking about food on such moments?
“Fine” I reluctantly agreed, sighing in defeat as we indeed needed to clarify a few things to him, otherwise he would remain mad at both of us. “Am I supposed to inform Kyuhyun?” I frowned indignantly, since it would be a pain to inform Kyuhyun about the punishment that was going to befall upon us - what a saddening destiny. “No, I’ll take care of delivering the message personally” Changmin, strangely delighted, answered.
At least someone was more troubled than me.
--------------------------------------
The usual restaurant, mentioned earlier, was quite a cozy place where the lights were faint creating the perfect place for… couples. Despite having a romantic atmosphere, it was frequented by many famous actors, idols, because the dim lighting decreased the chance of being recognized. Our garments had to be slightly fancy in order to adequate with the local though.
“Why do we need to pay you a meal in order to receive your support? As a friend you should be forgiving and leave us together to have quality time!” Kyuhyun humorlessly hissed as Changmin kept ordering the most expensive foods on the menu. “Hold hands under the table, it will give you enough quality time” Changmin petulantly retorted, eyes still focused on the mouth-watering foods displayed on the menu.
Kyuhyun growled knowing Changmin was as stubborn as him - friends usually shared common traits after all. “Either that or kick you out. I assure you both will make me equally happy.” Kyuhyun did not hesitate to kick Changmin underneath the table, starting an immature kick fight between them - were they really adults? I sighed from their childishness, nervously watching our surrounds hoping no one recognized us. “Enough” I reprimanded them, because someone had to control those two. Reluctantly, they recomposed themselves. Kyuhyun seemingly admitted defeat as his hand held mine, act that was hidden under the table’s towel.
After successfully returning to his usual self, Changmin gladly informed us “Paying for this meal is Kyuhyun’s punishment, yours is cooking me dinner” which made me roll my eyes in annoyance - was he actually taking advantage of the situation in order to earn food? “You aren’t even interested in us.” Immediately, I complained of his absurd idea, Kyuhyun chuckled beside me, enjoying the sight of our friend’s eyes narrowing.
“I am hurt! My best friends decided to tell Yunho about their relationship and not me!” Changmin feigned to be very hurt as he made a cute pout. Why he acted like this around us? Too bad he sucked as an actor. Kyuhyun audaciously put his arm around me, showing his vicious grin to Changmin, who raised his eyebrows unsure of what to expect. “Oh. Believe me, no word was said” Kyuhyun answered seemingly satisfied with the happenings from the morning.
“What?” Changmin’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion, he failed to understand how Yunho discovered us. “Well, Ryeowook was needy” Kyuhyun playfully explained, which made me grumble in dissatisfaction, quickly kicking him (I should’ve kicked both of them in that kick fight earlier). “Ouch!” my lover pathetically cried from the sudden action - for me it was a delightful sound. “I wasn’t.” I defended myself while staring at our friend sitting in front of us that simply tilted his head, but was clearly enjoying Kyuhyun’s pained expression.
After receiving such hint from Kyuhyun, Changmin frowned. “So… Yunho hyung caught you two having sex?” Although Changmin was slightly terrified with that hypothesis, he still tried to figure out the way we broke the news for Yunho. “Why would we have sex on a place where we could be caught?” I scowled about him believing that absurd idea was possible. Changmin simply shrugged innocently still thinking his supposition could be true, while Kyuhyun laughed at the awkward chat we were having. “Ryeowook would want though, as he seems to enjoy showing our intimacy to others” Kyuhyun wickedly added, pinching my cheek on the process.
Without any delay, I slapped his hand away, dedicating a death glare especially for him. “I only showed to Yunho hyung once” I protested in my own defense, since Kyuhyun took the day to tease me - he enjoyed doing that a lot unfortunately. “It might grow on you” He copied Changmin’s innocent expression, using his failed cuteness on me. “Indeed” Changmin agreed while watching us amused. Gladly, they stopped bullying me after I kicked both under the table.
“This is the only thing Yunho told you?” I reluctantly asked, in doubt if I would be exposing the meaning behind our meeting by doing such a question. Kyuhyun nervously glanced at me, wondering if I was going to reveal the truth - Changmin would be probably mad at us for that particular reason. “Yes… is there something else I need to know?” Changmin confusedly stared at us, waiting for us to spill out other news.
“Nah. Just about how we had sex last night and Ryeowook was begging for more” Kyuhyun had prepared a quick answer to give in case Changmin’s reply was a negative one - I couldn’t say I was glad with him blurting out such things though, especially ones that weren’t true. “He is joking, he just wants to see you disgusted by the mere thought of we fucking each other” I interrupted the non-sense spelled by my lover’s, cursing mentally him - was it that enjoyable to make me embarrassed?
“More like you being fucked” Kyuhyun pointed out with a wide smirk, although offended, I remained in my speechless state, since it was true. “Shut up” I muttered humorlessly, hastily pushing away his hand that was around me. “Make me” my lover defied, eyes glimmering with delight - he was certainly enjoying this situation. “You are such a bother!” I hissed very annoyed, but his hand was holding mine’s again, gently squeezing it as he stared at me with fondness, which successfully made me stay quiet again.
“You two are still with that bickering even as a couple? You never change!” Changmin was certainly entertained with our idiotic fights - in his opinion they were fun, as long as he wasn’t involved during his rest time. When I was about to answer that, the food arrived, successfully keeping Changmin’s mouth busy.
Since this punishment was Kyuhyun’s, I was quite delighted when I saw the bill - at least he had a reason to sulk now.
--------------------------------------------------
Our lips crashed, bodies entangled together only a few seconds after we stepped inside my apartment. Heavy breaths mingled when we slowly separated, Kyuhyun placed each hand on my cheeks. Gazes were deeply connected as his thumbs caressed my face in light touches, leading me to purr. “Was there some aphrodisiac in that food?” I jokingly asked in order to break the sexual tension that was building between us - I wasn’t ready for that yet. My arms were hooked around his neck, pulling him down with the intention of returning to our previous position. “Hopefully, so Changmin will be troubled then” Kyuhyun answered seemingly very delighted from the thought of Changmin suffering because of his beloved food - apparently the bill from the restaurant made a considerable damage on Kyuhyun’s wallet.
Our gazes remained fixed, because we were admiring each other’s features. “We’ll keep moving forward, but I will definitely mend my past mistakes” the seriousness attached to his speech drew my attention, words echoing in my mind as I tried to comprehend the meaning behind them. “Personally, those cliché acts like candlelight dinner, roses, are corny…” Kyuhyun shyly admitted making a dramatic pause to slide his hands around my waist in order to pull me closer, hiding his face on the crook of my neck. “However, for a strange reason, I’d like to do those for you” The unforeseen words he uttered made me completely astonished.
Although a sheepishly smile broke out on my features, I couldn’t contain my urge to tease him a bit. “Oh. Cheesiness. I feel like throwing up.” My statement made him growl in dissatisfaction, nudging me very indignantly. “Someone have to be romantic” he defensively tried to reason out, slightly bitter about my reaction - it was one of those rare moments when he tried to be honest about his feelings. Amidst my joyous laughter, I wrapped my arms around his waist burying my head on his chest. “What other embarrassing thing will you say? Something along the lines of: ‘let’s make love, not sex’?” I mockingly added, while raising my head to stare directly at him, my eyes being filled with fondness for my lover.
Kyuhyun glared at me in disbelief, until a naughty smirk replaced his previous expression. “Nah. Screw that terminology, it has the same meaning.” he plainly justified, causing me to roll my eyes at his speech. “You and your failed romanticism” I openly criticized while comfortably resting my head on his chest. His melodic chuckle invaded the room, promptly pressing his lips lightly against my forehead during our intimate moment. “Tired?” he interrogated, receiving a short nod as an answer. “Let’s sleep then” he dragged me towards my room while I was busy yawning.
“How outrageous, you’re acting like a host in my own place?” I playfully pointed out, causing him to roll his eyes in annoyance.
-----------------------------------------
During early hours of morning, my eyelids reluctantly opened, watching carefully my surrounds. Kyuhyun wasn’t around anymore, but there was a particular thing that made my sleepy state to fade instantly: red roses. Seemingly, he was serious about the statement from last night, considering the great amount of roses placed next to me. There was a small card strategically placed on the nightstand, place I easily spotted. In bold letters it was written:
Happy 100 days.
Although we broke up during that short time span, it doesn’t make less special what happened 100 days ago, when we finally started dating.
Ps: there are a total of 100 roses.
Blinking my eyes very startled, I carefully analyzed the beautiful flowers, with a frown painting my features from the amount of roses. “What am I supposed to do with those now?” I muttered wondering why he couldn’t give me a number of roses that fit inside a vase - Kyuhyun was so exaggerated sometimes. Well, I suppose it was that particularity about him that successfully made me fall in love. A small smile made its way into my lips as I caressed the petals lightly.
---------------------------------
Rushing towards the entrance of the company, made me bump into someone. “I am sor…” I couldn’t end my words, because I was unable to do so: the sight made me completely speechless. My gaze rested skeptically on the person standing in front of me. “Hi, hyung” Hyungsik brightly greeted me, orbs filled with a mysterious aura into them.
It was obvious I’d be hesitant about meeting him again, especially after that failed fling. However, I didn’t hate the boy - it was my own fault for picking him in that particular night. In my past flings, I always certified beforehand none of them had crushes on me, because those feelings would certainly be troublesome later. Immediately, his eyes scanned my body, until he found a mark that attracted his attention: small love bites Kyuhyun placed on my neck on the previous night - my lover’s possessiveness only worsened after that occurrence.
“I see, so you are together with your beloved Kyuhyun?” he maintained his fake smile while questioning acidly about my lover, which made me quick my eyebrows - there was definitely something suspicious about the newcomer. “I must apologize for being rude, but it’s none of your business.” I refrained from giving out information that was supposed to be confidential.
Hyungsik simply shrugged innocently while staring intently at me, again those eyes filled with longing. “You know, I happen to be a fan of Cho Kyuhyun” Hyungsik carelessly spoke as we walked together towards lift in order to reach the meeting room - avoiding the boy was nearly impossible since he would be at the reunion again today. Failing to understand what he was trying to infer by that statement, I spared him a questioning glance.
“Go bother Kyuhyun instead.” I grumbled in annoyance, obviously trying to be cautious around him, since the boy did seem to have an awkward attachment to me - why he had it? “You didn’t understand” he calmly corrected me while we entered in the lift. The atmosphere between us was very awkward. “Excuse me?” I was losing my patience by his riddles. Couldn’t people be more objective nowadays?
Hyungsik pushed me against one of the cold walls of the empty elevator, trapping me between his arms, slowly approaching me. “I crave to have everything Kyuhyun has…” he finally confessed, wearing a vicious grin on his features. Unfortunately, such expression tainted his seemingly innocent face - one that I admitted to be very handsome. “Fame, money, you and … family” Hyungsik darky spoke as his grasp around my shoulders tightened.
Aware of how dangerously close he was, I struggled pushing him away. One particular word caught my attention in his useless speech: family.
What an awkward thing to desire from the other.
Desperately walking along the large halls, my cellphone suddenly rang. The screen displayed the caller’s id: Changmin. Although hesitant, I pressed the answer button, warmly greeting my friend. “My beloved friend…” he answered on the other side of the line using a sarcastic intonation, which made me wince - how come Yunho was so fast to gossip around? “… Yes?” I sweetly spoke feigning ignorance, hoping I was wrong about that predicament. “You, me and Kyuhyun at the usual restaurant today.

“I am hurt! My best friends decided to tell Yunho about their relationship and not me!” Changmin feigned to be very hurt as he made a cute pout. Why he acted like this around us?
