He grit his teeth, trying to ignore his itchy nose. Oh how he craved to raise his hand and scratch it. Just once or twice would be enough. His jaw started to hurt by the pressure he was putting on it and he opened his mouth ever so slightly.

"How much longer do I have to sit like this?" his low voice mumbled and whined faintly.

The brunette gave him a stern look as his eyes narrowed. A finger was pointed at him.

"Who gave you permission to speak?"

"But I really have an itchy nose and it's killing me.."

"Who cares about your nose! This is about me and winning this year's Crafts Contest. Didn't you volunteer to help me?"

"Yes, but-"

"No buts, be quiet or else I have to start all over!"

Siwon shut his mouth and sighed inwardly, wondering why he had thought volunteering for this kind of thing could have been fun in the slightest. He could do so many useful things instead of helping out the most ungrateful person of their school, Kyuhyun.

Siwon had his club responsibilities. He was the vice-president of the Music club and he knew the actual president was absent today. His fellow club members were probably wondering where he was since he didn't tell anyone about this. Of course he didn't tell them, they would probably laugh at him.

A blush came upon Siwon's face when seeing his reflection in the mirror at the end of the wide classroom. He was seated on a white table, with his legs slightly apart and his arms embracing himself. One hand was clutching his waist, the other on his shoulder. It took so much strength not to let gravity win, he had been posing like this for such a long time already.

Siwon's head was turned to the side and he was slightly looking downwards, granting him the view of a pencil a student had left behind on the ground. He could not see what was going on in front of him and maybe it was for the best. The only thing he could hear were mumbles and curse words.

"Gah! This is not going to work at all!"

Furious words were followed by an angry fist which destroyed half of the clay statue. Soon the other half was smacked down as well and all that was left was a big lump of clay. Seemed like they had to start all over again.

"What are you doing?!"

Siwon had had enough and moved out of his pose. His hand rubbed his nose thoroughly, ignoring the glare Kyuhyun was giving him. A sigh left his mouth as the itch was rubbed away. At least one problem was solved, though the other one was not that easy to handle.

Kyuhyun was known for his striving towards perfection and losing was not an option when the brunette entered a contest. This was often the reason why people could not get along with him. There was always something he had to change and there was always something he could do better, whether it be drawing or explaining how mathematics work. The people who could get along with him either ignored this characteristic feature or admired it.

Siwon was not sure if he admired it or ignored it. There was so much more to this specific person though. Kyuhyun was determined, skillful and he had a strange aura that was so.. inspiring. It had once inspired Siwon to write a song for the contest organized by the Music club and therefore the tall male felt obliged to help Kyuhyun to win the Crafts Contest.

Of course his help was not asked for, but it was also not refused. Siwon wanted to help in any way possible, though it was not supposed to end up like this; sitting in nothing but a pair of grey boxers.

It seemed the perfectionist was mumbling to himself now, punching the clay and throwing some dry parts blindly on the ground. Something was different about this whole attempt of creating an artistic piece. The irritated male stopped molesting the clay and looked around at his other masterpieces. All were accompanied by many drafts, either grayscale or coloured.

Kyuhyun knew what was missing and hoped the other one would not find out. Drafts, he had made so many drafts. Yet none were good enough for this piece of art. None could even be compared to the masculine lines of Siwon's face or the well toned muscles of his chest and arms.

Tears welled up in the brunette's eyes as a feeling of incompetence washed over him. He raised his hand to cover his dark pools and bit his lip. Never had he felt so useless, so weak, so pitiful.

Kyuhyun didn't know his arm was shaking, but Siwon could see it clearly. There was obviously something bothering him, but the tall male didn't know what. What was Siwon supposed to do now? All he could think of was encouraging him and so he did.

"Aha~ What are you wasting time for? Wasn't it you who told me to undress and get in a certain pose for your clay sculpture?"

"………"

"Come on, I've scratched the itch away and I promise I won't whine again until it's finished, okay?"

"Shut up. You don't even know how troublesome it is to create a piece of art."

Kyuhyun's words sounded bitter, but he could hear his voice crack a bit. It was not like they were that different. His words had hurt Siwon, though he didn't show it. Somehow he felt offended, but mostly saddened. Did that mean his latest song, which was inspired by this art designer himself, was nothing at all? Not even worth calling a piece of art? Sure, it was not made of anything like paint, wood or clay, but is was made by his words and his feelings for Kyuhyun.

"Ah…?"

Siwon's words and his feelings, for Kyuhyun? A blush spread upon his cheeks and he turned his head away, covering his mouth which refused to close on its own. Was that the reason Siwon was able to write a song inspired by this other male? Was it the reason why he didn't mind helping the brunette, even if it meant Siwon had to pose in front of the other in his underwear?

Kyuhyun quickly wiped away his tears. How shameful to cry in front of another man, he thought bitterly. Even if he had not the skills to draw a draft with all of Siwon's beautiful features, there was no reason to show his weak side so easily.

He turned and took in the sight of the blushing, tall male. A sudden dazed feeling washed over him as he stared speechlessly. This pose, the blush, the look in Siwon's eyes. It was so.. inspiring.

Then Kyuhyun realized he could never capture Siwon's beauty. Not in a draft nor in a sculpture. This human was not meant to be turned into a lifeless piece of art at all for it would lose all of its glory.

It was so much more beautiful as a living sculpture.
