"We have to do something special for him today"
"Agreed, but what? It's not like we have a lot of time to prepare something"
"He has been tense and stressed all week, perhaps we could take him to the spa?"
Donghae smiled brightly at his suggestion and Eunhyuk's face soon broke out in a wide smile as well. The third male pursed his lips before nodding slowly.
"That could work" Siwon said and smiled at the other two.
They were hiding underneath the table in the dressing room, the long tablecloth hiding them from everyone else in the crowded room. There was no need to be careful, no one would be able to hear them with Kangin and Leeteuk doing bodygags and entertaining the rest of Super Junior while the 'make-up noonas' did their best to make them all pretty for the cameras.
Still the three of them were huddled up, smiling as they each summed up something they could do at the spa.
"He can get a massage from a pretty noona!" Eunhyuk said and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
"Aaaah, I think he likes younger girls more" Donghae turned his face and nudged Eunhyuk with a grin.
"Then we arrange for two of them to massage him" Siwon opted, grinning like a fool.
The three of them snickered until a knock from above disturbed their childish scene. Eunhyuk looked up, grunting as his nose hit the table. He covered it and swatted Donghae's hand away as the other tried to see if he was alright. The tablecloth moved faintly and was then lifted, revealing two pairs of legs. Siwon turned his head with a surprised expression, smiling sheepish at Han Geng and Heechul who became visible as they leaned down to look underneath the table.
"Yah! What are you three doing? Shooting's going to start in five, get outta there!" Heechul slammed his hand on the table until all three the males had crept out.
"Seriously, your EunSiHae get's weirder by the day, hiding underneath the table" Heechul glanced at the three who laughed and made Han Geng drop the tablecloth by grabbing the Chinese's hand and dragging him toward the rest of Super Junior.
Leeteuk huffed at the approaching men, shaking his head before motioning for everyone to get outside. They were going to finish the shooting of their MV 'Haengbok', which involved a lot of dancing but also a few more parts of lip syncing. The whole shooting had been fun so far and all of them wished they could do more MV's like this, just fooling around every now and then instead of constantly having to remember dancing steps.
It was relieving when the director said to simply have fun and be happy-go-lucky while they would record the member lip syncing. Of course that meant members tried to get as much screen time as possible and at one point everyone clung to another to try and fit into the screen as well. Despite the hot weather, the Super Junior members found it refreshing to jump around and randomly dance whenever they wanted. They teased, fooled around and were all smiling brightly until the very end when the director clapped his hands and announced the completion of the MV.
"Aah~! That was so much fun!" Sungmin beamed brightly and swung his 'Free Hugs' sign around to see if anyone wanted to hug him some more. An evenly happy Ryeowook quickly hugged him before Leeteuk could, making the leader pout a little. Kangin noticed this and quickly snatched the sign from Sungmin's hands, forcing it in Leeteuk's and then glomped him tightly.
"Haha, Kangin-ah!! You're breaking me!" Leeteuk laughed and playfully called out for help as Kangin started doing bodygags once more without releasing Leeteuk. Shindong and Yesung joined them in the gag ending it in a ridiculous mess of limps on the floor as Shindong bumped his butt against an unbalanced Yesung, who in turn stumbled into Kangin holding a struggling Leeteuk.
Leeteuk grunted, feeling the weight of the other three members pressing down on him because he was laying underneath. "CAN'T. BREATH.GET.OFF." he managed to say and inhaled deeply as finally they began to roll off. Kyuhyun grinned down at him before offering Leeteuk a hand, helping the almost squashed leader back on his feet.
Everyone started to change their clothing and Siwon nudged Kibum, whispering into the younger one's ear that what he, Eunhyuk and Donghae had thought up. Kibum showed off his brilliant white teeth and nodded his head, he liked the idea and thought it would benefit them all. Slowly all of the members except one were informed of the plan and so only one of them was surprised as he stepped out of the car to see he was in front of a spa instead of their dorm.
"What's going on..?" Leeteuk asked suspiciously, immediately turning around and narrowing his eyes at all of the others. Kangin shrugged, pretending he was just as surprised and unknowing as Leeteuk was. The leader knew they were all conspirators and he turned to the one he knew he could break the easiest.
"Hankyung, why are we here?" he asked, trying to appear kind though he felt too curious to look innocent. The Chinese man stiffened slightly, glanced at Heechul beside him and kept his lips perfectly sealed. Leeteuk tapped his foot, his eyes narrowing as he continued to look at the shuffling foreign man. "I don't understand!" Han Geng quickly said, making the others snort and giggle at the Chinese's attempt to save himself by using the language barrier.
Leeteuk felt his shoulders fall in defeat, if even Han Geng wasn't going to tell him, than none of them would. The look on his face could be described as the following: tired, not amused, and desperate. It made a few members feel guilty, but Heechul quickly stepped forward and clasped the leader's arm, dragging him inside the spa while rambling on that while they were here they could better make use of the chance to relax.
Everyone piled in, not surprised when a few women greeted them as if they had been waiting. Leeteuk simply shook his head, letting Heechul pull at his arm and Ryewook gently pushed him from behind. They entered the changing rooms and stepped out in the traditional spa clothing. Members paired up almost instantly and went their own way until Leeteuk was left with a grinning Donghae, a smiling Siwon and a snickering Eunhyuk.
"Right this way, Leeteuk-hyung~" Eunhyuk sang and grabbed the leader's hand, guiding them all into a secluded area where another two women were waiting. Leeteuk glanced at them and gave Siwon a questioning look. The tall male grinned and shrugged. "We didn't know which you would prefer" he simply said and highfived Donghae as Leeteuk began to blush and stammer.
"P-Prefer? T-This, you three, aish" Leeteuk didn't know what to do and merely blushed as the older woman motioned for him to lay down on the massage table. The younger one crept closer shyly, obviously a fan and trying not to squeal. Eunhyuk smiled at her and whispered something in her ear that made her blush like Leeteuk. The leader had noticed it, but decided it was better not to ask. He laid down awkwardly and turned his head, puffing his cheeks at Donghae who had lowered himself to be on eye level beside him. "Just relax, hyung" the male said, grinning widely.
At the whole other side of the spa, Kyuhyun eyed the little fish in the water below. He heard Shindong's giggling and frowned deeply, wondering how it could feel pleasant with the little fish eating at your feet. "You should try it as well, Kyuhyun" Kibum said, smiling brightly and shifting his gaze back down to his own feet. The brunette shook his head, refusing to step in the bath. "Perhaps Leeteuk-hyung will like it, but I'm going to pass, he mumbled, quickly walking off to search the leader and bring him there so Kyuhyun himself wouldn't have to step in it.
He met up with Yesung and Ryeowook on his way and the three of them stared in the doorway as Leeteuk got massaged by the two females. Their leader was obviously in pain as the older woman roughly kneaded his lower back and as the younger one kneaded his lower legs. Leeteuk grunted and shot glares at the laughing Eunhyuk and Donghae, sparing Siwon who was at least trying not to laugh though he failed with his smile shining through his fingers covering his face.
Leeteuk noticed the three other members and quickly tried to reach out for one of them. "Tell t-THEM AISH!! Stop!" Leeteuk hissed and groaned not noticing Kyuhyun's smirk and Yesung's shaking body as the male tried not to laugh. Ryeowook, the ever so kind member, quickly ran forward and clutched Leeteuk's hand, carefully eyeing the girl beside him. "Um, could you.. Excuse me.." Ryeowook seemed unable to get contact as the girl continued kneading while brushing brightly. Obviously the fangirl was not going to let go of her bias any time soon.
That's when Kyuhyun stepped forward and lightly tapped the girl on her shoulder. She stopped momentarily only to tell whoever was disturbing her to leave her alone, but the moment she locked eyes with Kyuhyun, all of the Super Junior members present in the room knew who her true bias was. Leeteuk didn't care however, there was still someone hurting him and he wanted it to stop. He tugged at Ryeowook's hand, looking up at him with begging eyes.
Ryeowook glanced at the older woman and the hard expression she was wearing on her face. It frightened him and he tightened his grip on Leeteuk's hand. Siwon finally decided to interfere, he addressed the older woman and kindly gestured her she had done well and could stop now. The woman smiled kindly and nodded, patting Leeteuk on the back before motioning for the staring girl to follow her.
Yesung leaned over the table and gave Leeteuk a sympathetic look. The other sighed in relief and was thankful as Yesung and Ryeowook helped him off the table, supporting his aching body out of the room. "You are all DEVILS!" Leeteuk shouted at the three culprits who lured him in the room for what seemed at first like an innocent massage.
"Guess he didn't like the massage" Eunhyuk said and leaned against Donghae to catch his breath from laughing so much.
"Or perhaps he didn't like the women" Donghae speculated, patting Eunhyuk's back lightly.
"Next time we will massage him ourselves" Siwon added, crossing his arms with a determined look.
In the meantime Leeteuk had reached the bath where Kibum and Shindong were laughing. He eyed them suspiciously, wondering what was so amusing. Neither of them spoke, but the laughing continued until they removed their feet from the water. Yesung stepped inside and motioned for Leeteuk to do the same. "Come on, Teukie-hyung!" he said brightly and chuckled at the tickling feeling. Kyuhyun pushed Leeteuk forward, patting the leader's back with a look that said he was certain Leeteuk would enjoy this more than the rough massage. "Don't worry, hyung, they're just kangal fish" the brunette reassured him but quickly walked off before anyone could force him into the bath as well.
Leeteuk squeaked as the little fish began nibbling at his feet. A series of giggles and high pitched laughter filled the room and caused for the other two members to laugh as well. After the little fish had cleared Leeteuk's feet from all the dead skin, the leader stepped out and sighed in relief, he felt much better now that he had a good laugh and had recovered from the beating that had come in the disguise of a massage.
"I'm going to search for the others, we will see each other at the gate in an hour, okay?" Leeteuk made sure the other two had heard him before leaving the room. He wandered around aimlessly, enjoying the warmth and swinging his towel over his shoulder. Peeking his head into an unknown room, Leeteuk was greeted with a sight that startled him a little.
Staring right back at him was Kyuhyun who had fled the kangal fishing bath and who had now joined Sungmin. Both males had a darkish brown substance on their face, making them almost unrecognizable, but Leeteuk was familiar with those onyx eyes that twinkled at him after Leeteuk got a fright. He was sure it was Kyuhyun, who was enjoying the fact he had scared the leader. "Aish, really, what are you two doing?" Leeteuk asked, slapping Kyuhyun's arm as the other chuckled almost evilly.
"We're getting a mud treatment, it deep cleans and purifies the skin while stimulating cell renewal" Sungmin said wisely and Kyuhyun snorted at him. "The lady just told us that" Kyuhyun said, embarrassing Sungmin who had wanted to sound professional. The older of the two started to pout and Kyuhyun told him not to pull weird faces or else the mud mask wouldn't work efficiently. This started an argument between the two that Leeteuk really didn't want to be part of so he quietly left and continued his stroll through the spa.
There was at least one thing he'd like to do before they had to go. Leeteuk followed the little signs hanging from the ceiling and soon found his destination, smiling brightly when he saw the hot spring was deserted. He quickly retreated in a changing booth and stepped out with the towel around his waist. Just then Heechul and Han Geng walked in, obviously wanting to try out the hot bath as well.
"Ah! Leeteuk!" Han Geng noticed the blonde first and smiled kindly as he walked over. "Do you mind if we join you?" the Chinese man asked, glancing at Heechul who went straight into the booth to change instead of asking Leeteuk's permission. The leader smiled at Heechul's behaviour and nodded at Han Geng's words. "Of course not, get changed, quickly!" Leeteuk patted Han Geng on his back and got in the hot water first.
The warm water soothed his tired body and made him relaxed within seconds. This was what Leeteuk had been waiting for ever since their last visit to the spa and that had been quite a while. Out of all the facilities, the hot spring had always been Leeteuk's favourite, it was just like a warm bath, but somehow the atmosphere here was far more soothing.
Leeteuk closed his eyes, sinking into the water and using the towel he had worn before as a small pillow underneath his head. He sat there for a moment, resting his body and mind though not completely drifting off into a slumber.
Suddenly something fell on his face and it startled him, he splashed his arms in the water shortly until he noticed it was someone's towel. "Aish, Heechul, you scared me!" Leeteuk sighed and reached up to pull the towel from his face. "Don't remove it!!!" Heechul voice sounded from afar and was quickly accompanied by a gasp from Han Geng, meaning that whoever had dropped the cloth on his face was neither one of them.
He heard a pair of feet behind his head and was too curious to listen to Heechul's warning. Pulling the towel of his face, with his head still resting on his own, Leeteuk quickly saw who had dropped his towel. His face became bright red as a naked Kangin grinned down at him. "K-Kangin!!" Leeteuk exclaimed, quickly lifting his head and covering his bright red face. "Do you have no shame?!" the leader shrieked, trying to block the image of Kangin's manhood from his mind. The other shrugged and casually got into the water as well.
Heechul and Han Geng soon joined them, the former trying to lecture Kangin as the latter scooted over to pat Leeteuk on his back. Slowly Leeteuk was able to face Kangin again without blushing and he was able to enjoy the hot spring again, though having it to himself had been better. Heechul kept on talking and Kangin kept on interrupting the other with witty remarks and then they had an argument again. Leeteuk or Han Geng had to break them up even though the other two were merely joking. All in all, the hot spring was just as tiring as a normal conversation back at the dorms.
Leeteuk sighed as he got dressed again, it was almost time to gather back at the gate. He thought about the massage as he rubbed his lower back, remembered the little fishes as he wiggled his feet into his socks and flushed bright red as Kangin wiggled his eyebrows at him the moment Leeteuk stepped out of the changing room.
Ryeowook watched curiously but Leeteuk quickly cleared his throat before the other could ask any questions. Everyone turned their attention to their leader, awaiting whatever speech was about to start. "Well, today has been a very refreshing day. Luckily we were able to finish the 'Haengbok' MV and it's been a while since we last visited the spa like this. So, whoever made the preparations, thank you" Leeteuk said sincerely and smiled.
Eunhyuk and Donghae quickly voiced up to claim the credit, leaving Siwon behind them who merely smiled. Leeteuk looked at the three and crossed his arms, suddenly looking as if he was going to lecture them.
"Is he still angry about the massage?" Donghae whispered to Eunhyuk, carefully glancing at their leader. Eunhyuk shrugged faintly, trying to smile at Leeteuk.
"I'm not angry, though it makes me wonder what I did to the three of you for you to torture me like that" Leeteuk said and sighed heavily. Siwon looked surprised at Leeteuk's choice of words. "We didn't mean to torture you, this was supposed to be your present!" he explained and the others nodded in agreement.
Leeteuk seemed to be confused. Why would they give him a present? And a present that had left him still tired because of everything that had happened. It hadn't been as relaxing as Leeteuk had hoped it to be. "My present? What for?" the leader finally asked.
"Because it's Mother's Day of course!" Kangin exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air. Everyone but Leeteuk laughed and cheered. The leader watched how Shindong wrapped an arm around his neck with a grin. "Happy Mother's Day, umma" he cooed and gave Leeteuk's cheek a quick peck. Leeteuk squirmed away from Shindong and rubbed his cheek with widened eyes. Then everyone started to call him umma and he quickly demanded them all to get in the cars as he tried to stop blushing.
After all of them got seated, Leeteuk sat down himself, sighing a bit though smiling. "Silly dongsaengs" was all he said.
