Summary: The things Changmin does for love...
~*~*~
When Yunho offered to teach Changmin how to skate, the younger man hesitated. He hesitated long enough that Yunho’s face began to fall, the hopeful expression turning into something downtrodden and disappointed.
Changmin hated that look. More than that, he hated it when he was the one that put it there.
So head hanging a little, Changmin sighed and gave in.
He let Yunho drag him to the rink. He let Yunho rent him a pair of skates, prattling on about toe picks and blade lengths and all the various things his own skating coach has been teaching him. He even let Yunho show him how to lace the skates up properly.
It was only as he stood beside the gate, about to follow Yunho onto the ice for the first time that he hesitated again.
Not because he was afraid or unsure or any of the dozens of things he could tell Yunho was attributing his reticence to.
The truth was… Changmin had been ice skating since he was a little boy.
True, he was rusty. He hadn’t had the time or inclination since he’d joined SM for training and Dong Bang Shin Ki had taken up so much of his time.
Changmin knew he should have been honest, but Yunho had looked so enthusiastic, so happy to be able to do this, show Changmin something new like he hadn’t been able to since he’d stopped having to tutor Changmin in dancing basics.
Which left him where he was. Hovering at the edge of the ice, wondering if he should pretend to fall, wondering if he was a good enough skater to be able to pretend to be a horrible one without breaking something.
“Minnie?”
He looked up at Yunho and sighed. “Hyung… I…”
Yunho smiled sweetly and took his hands. “It’s okay. I promise to catch you if you fall.”
It really was unfair, the way Yunho could make him melt like that.
Changmin sighed again and let Yunho pull him onto the floor, resigning himself to all the bruises he was going to give himself in the name love.
