That night Ryeowook lay wide awake in bed. Even though he was so tired from the days chores and the bed was so soft and warm against his skin he couldn't help but think of Kyuhyun. His mind continued to wonder as he fell into sleep until his usual nightmare once again dominated his mind.
Once again he hears screams and shouts. Once again he feels the heat of the fire. Once again he is reminded of the death of his parents and once again what he has lost.
Ryeowook jolts up, tears streaming down his face. His vision blurry and his head banging. After the shock of the dream subsided Ryeowook curled up into a ball and once again cried himself to sleep.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning Ryeowook awoke with sore eyes and was feeling more tired than ever. He heaved himself out of bed and looked in his bathroom mirror. He frowned at himself and his red, puffy eyes before splashing water on his face and taking a shower.
It was 6:30 when the brothers woke up to the smell of pancakes. Kyuhyun jumped out of bed and raced downstairs to find Ryeowook in a pink apron prancing around the kitchen making all sorts of dishes.
Kyuhyun stood there gawping as he noticed Ryeowook's wet hair clinging to his neck and humming 'Sugar, Sugar'. He loved the way Ryeowook's figure was emphasized by the pink cloth.
Kyuhyun jump as Yehsung strutted past him and openly pulled Ryeowook toward's his own body.
'Yehsung...'
Ryeowook started before the older boy pulled him into a tight hug, and smirked over the smaller boy's shoulder at Kyhyun.
'Get off him.'
The younger of the brothers stomped forwards and grabbed Ryeowook's arm yanking him away from the other brother.
'Kyu.'
Ryeowook looked up at him wide eyed. Yehsung sat in a chair, ignoring the other two ah he started eating.
There was silence, and then Ryeowook looked down at Kyuhyun's hand firmly grasped on his arm.
'Ne, Kyu. Let me go and... ew shower before you come down okay?'
Kyuhyun immediately let Ryeowook go, blushing from acting on his emotions and showing how jealous he was.
After he had showered, Kyuhyun tramples downstairs and planted himself down on a chair, whilst Ryeowook served him a huge pile of pancakes.
Yehsung was still ignoring his younger brother as he downed his cup of coffee so he didn't notice his brother glaring at him. If Ryeowook felt the uncomfortable aura surrounding the brothers then he didn't show it as he continued humming, cooking and then eating with the brothers all the while with a smile plastered on his face.
'Ah! You two had better hurry, or you'll be late for school, and I'm coming with you this time.'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The school the boys were attending was an all boy's school for the very (very) rich. Meaning Ryeowook felt like he didn't belong there. The minutes he walked into the school he was in we of all the well mannered and rich noble teenagers there.
The bell rang and Ryeowook founf himself wondering the halls looking for his classroom. As he walked in everyone turned and stared at him. His teacher wuickly introduced him and Ryeowook was told to sit next to a boy called Henry.
Henrey smiled and said
'If you need anything, just ask me, I hope we can be friends.'
This made Ryeowook feel comfortable since as long as he had a friend like Henry then he was going to like life at this school.
'Thank you, Henli'
Ryeowook said in a small voice. Henry stared at Ryeowook and the made him jump as he burst out laughing.
'Hehe. I love how you say my name.'
And Henry beamed at Ryeowook till they were both laughing together.
Kyuhyun was in the same year as Ryeowook but in a different class. Yehsung was a senior and top of the school. Apparently both of them were famous throughtout the school and even had fan's who called themselves ELF's.
When Ryeowook told Henry that he was working and staying wit the famous brothers the other boy's smile dropped.
'Oh. Just be careful okay Wookie? They are famous and lots of people adore them but well... you'll see.'
Ryeowook didn't know what Henry meant and was about to ask when class started and he decided to ask Henry later.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At lunch Henry offered to sit with Rreowook to eat but Ryeowook had to find the brothers first. He had forgotten to give them their lunch boxes that morning and didn't want them to go hungry.
Henry tagged along in the search for the Cho brothers saying he wanted to make sure nothing happened to his new pure friends. Ryeowook giggled and happily agreed deciding he really liked Henry and was glad they met.
They saw Kyuhyun first, who was playing basketball. Ryeowook watched in amazement as the younger boy tackled every move with grace and power scoring every basket and dodging all of his markers. There were a crowd of people surrounding the court all with their eyes glued on Kyu.
When Kyuhyun finally saw Ryeowook he stopped and chucked the ball to one of his team mates then jogged over to Reowook smiling his perfect cheeky smile. But when he noticed the boy who was standing a bit too close to Ryeowook for his liking he started to frown and glare at the stranger.
'Wookie! You came to watch me play? Yay, I'm so happy.'
'What are you talking about?'
Ryeowook blushed at Kyuhyun who seemed to only care that he was there.
'You seem to have a lot of people watching you.'
Kyuhyun looked around as if seeing the love-struck eyes for the first time.
'Anyway I just came to give you your lunch. You forgot it this morning an I even made you extra cake.'
Kyuhyun took the box and held Ryeowook's hand saying
'Thank you Wookie'
but he didn't let go instead he tugged on the older boy's hand pulling him closer into a tight embrace. But then another set of arms were around Ryeowook's shoulders pulling him back again away from Kyuhyun. The strange boy's unwavering stare seemed to challenge Kyuhyun making him glare back until Ryeowook chirped
'Kyu- this is Henli, my new friend'
Henry leaned down and whispered in Ryeowooks ear
'Let's go find Yehsung now, then we can eat on our own. Without any disturbance,'
and he dragged Ryeowook away from a fuming Kyhyun.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next was Yehsung, he was sitting outside on one of the garden benches surrounded by boy's asking him to be friends with them and even girls from other schools giving him lunched they made.
'Makes me sick.'
Henry muttered making Ryeowook smile. Ryeowook found it hard to get close to Yehsung who just sat there looking good and every move he made, every head toss made girls and boys alike squeal.
'Really sick'
Henry continued.
Yehsung wasn't eating any of the ready made food in front of him or talking to the numerous students begging for his attention. He didn't even acknowledge love letters being held out by shaky hands.
Ryeowook managed to squirm his way to the front almost getting trampled on by the bigger boys and annoyed girls. When Yehsung saw Ryeowook he had a sudden change in attitude. He stood up and hugged Ryeowook taking the lunch box from him and sitting down to start eating.
The whole crowd suddenly screamed in protest, pushing to get forward and glaring at Ryeowook. Being small he was soon pushed to the back, a few people glaring at him as he left to stand with Henry.
'Well that was.. interesting. I had no idea they were so popular.'
Ryeowook mused. Henry ruffled his hair and taking his hand took him away from the bustling crowds.
What Ryeowook didn't see was Yehsung staring daggers at Henry who turned and held up Ryeowook's hand with a grin on his face as if to say 'HA!'
Ryeowook had to go shopping for food after school so he didn't go home with the brothers. He mused over their popularity and his mind wandered to his new best friend, Henry, who although was rich wasn't a snob about it at all.
He walked home singing 'Happiness'. He skipped through the iron gates and into the door only to be greeted by hands grabbing his arms and pulling him inside.
