Kyuhyun/Ryeowook
Ryeowook stirs up something new and different in the kitchen.


Kyuhyun lifted the transparent lid of the black pot, allowing the white smoke from inside puff out from its boiling content. He leaned in over the stove and took a deep whiff of the strange concoction bubbling quietly inside the utensil. The scent was spicy; a combination of herbs, condiments and spices. He glanced over to Ryeowook who was in the midst of chopping coriander leaves on the wooden board.

"What are you making?" the younger man asked and the other man looked at him with a smile. Ryeowook directed his eyes to the wooden spatula by the pot, inviting Kyuhyun to try the orange-brown thick gravy he was cooking without saying a word. Kyuhyun crooked an eyebrow suspiciously but went on to taste the nameless dish the older man had put together. After covering less than half of the spatula with the sauce, he let his tongue lick at the rounded end quickly, rolling the flavour inside his tongue like an expert connoisseur.

"Mm," Kyuhyun drawled, eyes staring up at the ceiling as though thinking of the perfect words to describe the unique curry flavour inside his mouth before gazing back at Ryeowook with a satisfied smile, licking his lips exaggeratively. "A little salty and slightly spicier than I like, but it's pretty good."

Ryeowook laughed and Kyuhyun covered the lid again, bringing the spatula to his lips and pushing the entire curved end into his mouth and sucking on the new taste he seemed unable to get enough of. He stalked over to the smaller man and pressed his back against Ryeowook's, arms wrapping around the others' waist, chin rested on the small shoulder gently. "So tell me the name of your special dish?"

"Tomato capsicum curry," Ryeowook replied, rubbing his butt unintentionally against Kyuhyun.

"Red tomato and green capsicum, I assume?" Kyuhyun laughed and Ryeowook nodded his head affirmatively. "Ryeowook-ah, you're so obvious. Just because we look good together on stage dressed as vegetables, it doesn't mean we're made to be in a dish together, pabo."

"It's an Indian recipe," Ryeowook said in a matter-of-fact voice.

"Really?" Kyuhyun looked puzzled. It sounded odd and awkward. Ryeowook shrugged his shoulder and Kyuhyun's chin slid off.

"You can search it on the internet. Anything else you want to comment on, genius?" Ryeowook sighed as he nudged Kyuhyun away from him and he shuffled to the stove to see if the curry was ready.

"Well, I guess we taste really good together," Kyuhyun muttered, gesturing to the pot sheepishly.

"I know," Ryeowook replied with a knowing smile as he turned off the stove.
