I placed my bag on my bed and changed my clothes after coming home from school. I'm mentally tired but still, i made sure that the clothes im wearing is cool and comfortable, so that i can freely move around. I just need to dance.

When i went back to the living room, he was sitting there, hair still wet from the shower he might have had earlier. "Hyung, i'm going to dance, is it ok?" I asked. "Yeah, sure. Go ahead." He said, not taking his eyes off from the magazine he's picked up. I sighed and turned the radio on and started moving my body despite the exhaustion im already feeling, i kept dancing, even if i am getting out of breath, my body kept moving to the beat.

Because I am a fool, i thought, maybe if i kept dancing, one day i will finally get his attention, one day he will look at me and really see me and the feelings i have for him.

I kept reading the magazine I picked up, trying not to get distracted by Taemin's music, but i couldn't concentrate well without that feeling in my gut to look at him. Again. I sighed and placed the magazine back to the coffee table and headed to the bedroom the both of us now share.

I found him writing some notes on his notebook on the desk beside our bunk bed, probably writing some new songs and melodies, I lied on my bed, and asked, "How's the song coming along, hyung?" "It's coming along pretty well." He said, taking a swift glance at me before going back to his notes. I stared at him as he silently hums to himself, his hand trying to keep up with his thoughts as the words race down from his head to the paper.

Because I am a fool, i kept staring at him, longer and longer every time i get the chance everyday, wishing my actions would one day write the melodies to the songs that he makes, and i will sing it out loud so it will reach his heart.

-----

I closed my notebook, leaving Minho alone in our bedroom, taking my notes with me. I headed outside to look for him, and gladly, I found him sitting calmly on the balcony, overlooking our quiet neighborhood. "Hyung, look at this." I handed him my notes, I always make sure he's the first one to see the lyrics of the song I just finished. "Let's see what you made for us." He smiled, eyes disappearing from his face, taking my heart with him.

I sat beside him as he starts reading the words aloud, he asked if there's a melody accompanying it, i said yes and started humming, and because music flows from him too, he easily caught on, and before we knew it, we were singing together. "It's wonderful. I'll talk to the manager, maybe we can suggest this song on our next release." He hands me back my notebook and i smiled, bitterly, but trying my best not to show it.

Because I am a fool, all i could do is write songs whenever I think of my feelings for him, hoping one day he'll notice that all the songs i've shown him is about him, about us. And maybe, when he finally realizes this, my feelings wouldn't be just another sappy and somehow pathetic line of that song written on a piece of paper.

I gave Jonghyun a nod before leaving him out in the balcony, it's almost dinner time and maybe tonight I can help him prepare the food, if he'll let me. I've watched over him for a while now, and I've learned when he'll be arriving from shopping for our dinner. And I was right, when I walked back to the living room, I rushed towards him and took some grocery bags he was trying to juggle with his two hands. "Careful with that, hyung. We cant waste another batch of eggs like we did 2 days ago." He warned me, I followed him to the kitchen and luckily, i was able to bring the grocery bags to the table with no accidents.

"Can i help you with dinner tonight?" I asked, hoping a yes will form from his lips. "Dont bother hyung. Just stay there like you always do. I love preparing the food on my own, besides, the last time you tried to help, i thought our house will burn down." He smiled and 'okay' was the only word i could say as he takes the groceries out of the bags and starts setting up the pots and stove. I stayed where I am and watched him closely, like always, since that's all I could ever do.

Because I am a fool, oftentimes I would wish I am not me and I dont have my condition, then maybe he'd trust me without thinking when my condition will kick in. I'd wish I had more strength and control over my body and it wouldnt be so hard to reach out for him.

-----

I handed Onew-hyung a lollipop to keep him from getting bored, he's always in the kitchen trying to help me anyway, and he'll watch me all the time. It's not that I dont trust him but I just wanted all my love to pour onto the food I'm making. I am selfish   when it comes to him.

Ever since I took the role as his mother, I was ready to love him as my son, nevermind the small age difference. I thought I just wanted to care for him like any mother or perhaps a guardian would to a child, but when he started growing as man before our very eyes, I realized I'm getting inclined to take care of him differently, do things with him a mother wouldn't to his son.

Because I am a fool, I pour all my love to the food i prepare, sometimes wishing it can magically make him see me not as a mother, but as Kibum, and I will still care for and love him, maybe even more than i do now.

Key stepped out halfway from the kitchen to the living room, calling out to the maknae, "Taeminnie, dinner in twenty minutes, ok? Call your other hyungs." And he went back to the kitchen, thankful that Onew was able to set the table without any plates crashing on the floor.

Taemin turns the radio off and wipes the sweat from his body, he walks towards Jonghyun's and Minho's room, calling out to Minho who was listening to his iPod, he tells him about dinner and that he's gonna wash his face and Minho should look for Jonghyun.

Minho removes his earphones and turns his iPod off, jumping out the bed, he heads outside, seeing that Jonghyun is obviously not in the living room, he walks to the balcony where he finds the shorter boy sleeping against the wall, he had to shake him awake.

After a short while, the five of them are now in a circle by the dining table, eating the food Key has prepared for everyone.

Tomorrow is another day but it wouldnt be any different than today anyway, their feelings at least, because they are foolish, and nobody has ever dared breaking the cycle.

-----------------------------------------

Author's Notes: Me and granitemouth have agreed that the boys have crushes on each other, too bad nobody reciprocates any of those. And yes, she agreed on Minho's epic crush on Jonghyun. Anyway, i'm sorry because you'll notice that some parts are shorter than the rest, but that's all i could do,  and hope nobody got sick of the line that's always apparent. hehehe. T^T
