Apples, pears or Donghae?
Cold.
It was very cold.
So cold that Donghae woke up, knowing that something was missing - he remembered falling asleep in a protective warmness. The blanket had been kicked down, exposing his naked back and hardly covering his curve of the back. He slowly opened his eyes, not really seeing any difference from having his eyes closed or opened. The scent from the sheets told him that he wasn't in his own bed, and he couldn't help but smile at that familiar scent.
He pushed himself up, in a sitting position with the help of his hands, noticing that he didn't have any clothing on and it didn't take a second for him to remember why he was naked, as fresh memories crossed his mind. He had to blink hard a lot of times and rub his eyes before he could adjust to the darkness and when he did, he noticed that he was alone in the clean room. He stretched himself over to the coffee brown makeup table to grab the the cellphone lying there, not belonging to him.
4a.m - he still had two more hours to sleep. But instead of sleeping he decided to wait. He forced himself to not shut his eyes, or else he would fall asleep.
Soon the door opened and Donghae, more asleep then awake, jumped in surprise. He tried to get a clear picture of the thin brunet standing in the doorway, but failed - not that he didn't know who it was.
“Did I wake you up?” he heard a familiar voice ask as he entered the room. Donghae shook his head, even though he didn't know if Eunhyuk could see it and he heard the door being locked. He started shaking his head again, this time not in a way of saying 'no' but an attempt to not feel so sleepy, his eyes still being closed.
“What are you doing?” Eunhyuk asked, and Donghae could imagine that he raised an eyebrow.
“Nothing” he answered, his voice sounding like he was drunk.
Eunhyuk chuckled. “Are you even awake?” And as respond Donghae nodded.
He watched the dancer's silhouette take his pants off, wearing only his boxers and then heard Eunhyuk commanding him to move to give him some space in the narrow bed. Before Donghae did as he was told he reached out to turn on the small lamp sitting on the wall, a dim light filling the room. Even though the light was weak, Donghae had to peer to protect his eyes. He moved to give the dancer his space and Eunhyuk made himself comfortable on his bed, his back resting against the bed frame.
“You'll freeze, you should get dressed.” he said and was about to turn the light off when Donghae stopped him. Instead of replying Donghae moved from his position, placing himself over the dancer, sitting astride him without Eunhyuk complaining. He hugged him tight, his arms warped around the dancer's waist and his head resting against Eunhyuk's shoulder; his hair and lips tickling Eunhyuk's skin. He waited for Eunhyuk to respond the action and when he felt two slender arms embrace him, Eunhyuk waiving his finger together behind Donghae's back, Donghae smiled.
“Hyukie yah” Donghae suddenly whispered, breaking the moment of silence, making Eunhyuk wonder if the younger was sleeping or not. Even so Eunhyuk responded.
“Can I ask you something?” Donghae said in a low voice.
The answer was no. Especially now, when Eunhyuk could clearly hear the other was starting to regain his wakefulness. Eunhyuk was way to tired for conversations right now, and he still had a few couple of hours to sleep. So, no.
But Eunhyuk didn't have the heart to say that.
“Yes.” he sighed, as he thought about how weak he was when it came to Donghae.
”Do you want to spend the rest of your life with me?”
The sudden question made Eunhyuk's eyes open, as if it was a reflex. It took some time to understand the question Donghae just asked but just in case he asked the other to repeat his question, in which Donghae, now fully awake, obeyed.
“Are you proposing to me?” Eunhyuk laughed silently, not really taking the other one seriously.
“Of course not, stupid.” Donghae said and yawned, the warm breath against Eunhyuk's neck making him shiver. “I'm just asking.”
Eunhyuk stayed silent, wondering why the singer had bothered to ask such a question.
“Answer me.” Donghae said, but not with a demanding tone.
“Yah, isn't it to early in the morning to be thinking about this stuff?” Eunhyuk decided to respond.
He knew the other had something in mind, something that bothered him. Still, Eunhyuk wasn't in the mood for having deep discussions at this moment.
“I said, I'm not proposing or anything. It's just a question.” Donghae answered.
“A weird one.”
“Why?”
Did he seriously have to answer that? For Eunhyuk, it was obvious. Of course it was a weird question! A weird and a bothersome question. All he wanted was to continue sleeping and he cursed himself for leaving the bed in the first place.
“Come on.” he whined. “Look at the time. We should be sleeping now. And you're asking me unnecessary questions.”
“Just answer me.”
“Can't you just sleep? Sleep! Close your eyes.”
“I am.”
“Close your eyes and shut up.”
“You can't have both.”
“Open your eyes and shut up.”
Donghae laughed softly. “I'll be quiet after you answer me.”
When he heard the rapper sigh, he knew the other one would give up. “What do you want me to answer?”
“I want a sincere answer.”
Of course. Eunhyuk stayed silent again.
“I'm not asking you to scream out how much you love me” Donghae said when he noticed that Eunhyuk didn't have any plans of cooperation. “I just want you to answer.”
“It's pretty much the same thing.”
“No, it's not.”
Silence. But Donghae wouldn't give up. “Can you at least tell me what's so 'weird' about the question?”
Eunhyuk sighed again, not really sure about how he could express himself. “It just is. It's like asking 'what's your favorite fruit?'. You can't answer that.”
“Apples.” A simple question, a simple answer. Donghae didn't understand the connection with the question he asked though.
“You're not getting my point. For you it's apples but I don't think that way.”
Donghae thought for a moment. “Pears?”
“You're so stupid.” Eunhyuk laughed gently because of the absurdness. “What I mean is, you can't answer a question like that because it depends on your mood. Right now, maybe I would answer 'apples', because now that I think of it, I want one. But tomorrow maybe I'll answer 'pears' because tomorrow I maybe don't want an apple.”
After speaking, Eunhyuk heard how illogical and out of topic his answer was, but he didn't have time to fix what he just had said before the singer spoke.
“... Did you just compare me to an apple?”
Eunhyuk, still being tired, half laughed, both because of this incredible unnecessary conversation, and for Donghae being Donghae. “Of course not. My point is...” he thought about it “I don't know what my point was, I didn't have one” and gave up “Just accept that your question is weird.”
But no, Donghae wouldn't give in at all. “So, you mean you have to be 'in the mood' for me? Today you're in the mood for Donghae but tomorrow you maybe are in the mood for Siwon and the day after tomorrow, you maybe are in the mood for Sungmin hyung. Today you want to be with me but tomorrow you maybe want to be with someone else, depending on your mood.”
This was just getting worse and Eunhyuk moaned complainingly. “You know that's not what I meant.”
“Or you're saying that if you had to chose between me and a pear, you'll chose the pear.”
“Maybe it was a bad example.” Eunhyuk decided to say, honestly - hoping that this will put an end to it.
“A really bad one.” Donghae completed with and laughed softly.
“I forgot your question and started thinking about fruits.” he heard Eunhyuk defend himself. “That just shows how confusing your question is.”
Donghae smiled and kissed the dancers neck, in a way of saying that he was just messing with him, even though Eunhyuk already knew that.
“Or maybe...” he spoke again “You're trying to tell me that I'm red and fat.”
“What?”
“Apples.”
Eunhyuk didn't even mind to answer that. Instead, he just sighed hopelessly.
“Or green with a strange body shape.”
“I'm going to kick you out of my room. Naked.”
Donghae laughed. “I'm sorry.” This was way so much funnier then he had expect.
When he stopped talking Eunhyuk got a feeling of relief and he even thought about praying to keep the silence. But Eunhyuk knew Donghae way to well, he knew his bliss wouldn't last long. Staying silent was, in Donghae's opinion, way to boring.
“You still didn't answer my question.”
“I would prefer the pear.”
“Come on~!” Donghae whined. He sat up properly so he could face the dancer. “I'll be the only one hearing your answer. And it's not like I can tell anyone else.”
“The pear.” Eunhyuk repeated and stretched his arm out to turn the light off, but Donghae once again stopped him. He grabbed the dancers face, placing his hands on each cheek, only to get his full attention.
“You won't answer because you're embarrassed” he said and faked a frown.
Eunhyuk was about to answer back when something stopped him. He suddenly found himself looking intensely at Donghae, Donghae's nose almost poking against his own nose. He lost himself, in those chocolate brown eyes, and studied the singer carefully. His playful eyes, his thin lips, his straight nose, his messy hair. Everything on him was so perfect.
“What are you thinking about?” Donghae asked surprised, for the first time using a serious tone in his voice. He hadn't actually thought about making Eunhyuk answer, because he knew it was pretty much impossible. But... maybe he was going to...?
“When I look at you this close” Eunhyuk said, still holding a serious face. “you're pretty ugly.” Donghae laughed and let go of Eunhyuk's face. With his index fingers he pulled up his own upper lip, making his gums visible. It took some time for the dancer to understand that the younger was making fun of him, and when he did, he hit him slightly on the head. “You're so stupid...” he chuckled gently and in respond Donghae just kept laughing.
Before Donghae had the time to speak again, Eunhyuk decided to shut him up completely for a moment. He slightly brush his lips against the singers. Donghae was taken off guard, but was quick and caught on. He closed his eyes to focus only on those soft, wet lips against his own and smiled. He felt a tongue lick his lips, as if asking for permission to enter and he opened his mouth to welcome the tongue. They kissed, not aggressively or passionate but a softly kiss, slowly exchanging tastes and saliva, in a way of agreeing that they wouldn't go any further tonight. Donghae warped his arms around Eunhyuk's neck, his fingers playing with his hair while Eunhyuk still held him in his embrace.
Eunhyuk would usually lose his patience times like this and just force the younger out of his room. But this time, he didn't mind.
There were a lot of things Eunhyuk didn't mind at this moment.
He didn't like Donghae messing with him, saying stupid and weird things - especially not at this hour. He didn't like having Donghae on him for a very long time - Donghae wasn't that light and it would get sweaty and sticky. He didn't like chatting at night - especially not when work awaited the next day. He didn't like sleeping with anyone in his own bed - it was to narrow, he liked having his space while sleeping.
But right now, at this moment, he didn't mind any of those things. Right now, in a dim light in Eunhyuk's small room, was one of those times when the two of them would run away from this world and meet in their own little world. A world away from their fans, away from Super Junior, away from SM, away from everything that didn't allow them to love each other like they did. A world with only Lee Hyukjae and Lee Donghae. And in this world, Eunhyuk didn't mind anything.
“Can I ask you one last question? I promise I'll shut up after that.”
Eunhyuk didn't respond, he knew Donghae would ask anyway.
“I'll make it easy for you.” he said. He suddenly got a serious face and looked at the dancer with intense eyes, as if he was about to tell him something really important. “If you had to choose between apples, pears and Donghae, who would you pick?”
A much more comfortable question.
"Donghae.”
“And if you had to choose between Siwon, Sungmin hyung and Donghae, who would you pick?”
“Donghae.”
Donghae smiled and went back to his previous position, his head against Eunhyuk's shoulder, his lips against Eunhyuk's neck.
“Satisfied?”
“Very.” Donghae kissed his neck for the last time, making his head comfortable against the shoulder - it was going to be his pillow for tonight. “Good night.” he whispered, being the last thing he said.
And as promised, he shut up. Eunhyuk smiled, feeling happy with the knowledge that Donghae didn't see it.
“Good night.”
the end
