CSU: This Time Around - Chapter 20
He looked around him. He was in a beautiful beach house, just like the one he always wanted. The cool breeze was inviting and he loved it. He turned to his left to see the sun was about to set and to his left, a picture of him and....JunSu?
"YooChun?"
"Ah...hey, JunSu-ah" YooChun said, hugging the cutie and stared at their linking arms. 'Is this a dream? Then, I don't wanna wake up!'
"Can you do something for me?" JunSu said shyly.
"I see what I can do"
"I want to eat sausage" JunSu pouted.
"Let's go out then" YooChun tapped his cute button nose.
"No, you have it and I want it" JunSu said, biting his lip as he looked down seductively, at YooChun's hips.
"Ah....okay......" YooChun followed and noticed JunSu was staring at his member. "....ah you mean this?"
"Pull off your pants, baby" JunSu nodded.
"Oooo......you're so naughty, JunSu-ah" YooChun teased, quickly removed his pants, and tried to look what was JunSu hiding and saw a clipper, to be exact a grass shear. "What's that?"
"So that I could have a nice grilled sausage" JunSu winked seductively and demonstrated how to use the sharp tool.
"Th-that's a big scissors, you got there" YooChun held onto his pants and backed away, gulped and sweating profusely. "Wh....wh...what do you need a sciss....ors for?"
"Oh.....this?" JunSu asked. YooChun nodded as he reached the wall, blinked as he saw the sharp blades. "ChunChun"
"Wh-......no, no, no, no, no......." YooChun gasped, a hand held up to stop JunSu from advancing. "JunSu, baby, I love you but -"
"ChunChun" JunSu called out, licking his cherry lips with devious eyes.
"JunSu! JunSu! No! Not ChunChun!" YooChun shook his head vigorously, backing further into the wall. 'I don't want this dream! I don't want this dream! Get me out! GET ME OUT!!!'
"ChunChun!" JunSu's warm breathe was right beside YooChun ears and the latter could feel a sharp thing poking his crotch. YooChun shut his eyes when he heard the sound of the shear in place......
"No! No! No!"
YooChun snapped out and opened his eyes, to see two pair of eyes staring back at him.
"Told you the tree is a much better choice"
YooChun sat up abrubtly and looked around. The same four white walls he stared at before going to bed. He turned to the wall clock and it read, half past ten. He looked at the only window and saw the blind had been pulled up. The morning sun beaming through the window. Tall buildings decorating part of the scenery. No beaches. No cool breeze. No picture of him and JunSu. And....ChunChun's still intact.
He breathed out one big sigh of relief.
"Bad dream?" JaeJoong laughed out loud from the seat he was occupying.
"Shut up!" YooChun said, too embarrassed to carry on with the topic. Right after seeing ChangMin shaking his head, he knew he might have revealed something.
He was granted a room by Dr Jang, for an exchange to have YooChun not to say a word about his misfortune to anyone - especially to her superior - fear she would lose her job. It wasn't much of her fault anyway. YooChun was the one who tricked her to believe JunSu was his boyfriend and had wanted to break up with him. He tried to explain to her, but when she said JunSu was scared the minute he fainted and turned slightly blue, he just nodded his head and accepted her offer.
"How are you doing?" ChangMin asked as he looked around. "Where's JunSu-hyung?"
YooChun jumped but once realising it was just a dream he had, directed his gaze at the white divider. "Pull that curtain"
JaeJoong walked over to the said item and pulled it out of the way. Behind the screen, was JunSu, sleeping soundly on the only couch that was situated right opposite where YooChun was. JunSu's foetus like position and thumb sucking was the reason why YooChun needed the screen to prevent himself from raping JunSu right there and then.
"Woah" ChangMin watched as YooChun's little willy sprung up in action - underneath the sheets - like a dead plant coming to life.
"You are beyond help" JaeJoong commented before pulling the screen back to its original location.
"Only works on him" YooChun wasn't sure whether it was something to be happy about.
"You are so beyond help" JaeJoong pulled the screen again; and every time he does that, that little thing 'woke' up.
"Hey! Stop playing with ChunChun!" YooChun snapped and threw a pillow at JaeJoong. "He needs to sleep"
ChangMin and JaeJoong watched as the profiler calmed his little 'thang' with one hand and another motioned them to be quiet. With his eyes moving to the screen and to his 'friend'. They both exchanged glances before turning back at YooChun, who was by the way, grinning like an idiot.
"You know you just defy the true logic of human anatomy" ChangMin said, wanted to tell him that ChunChun doesn't have eyes to 'grow'. "The only way to get that up -"
"ChangMin, don't bother" JaeJoong interrupted. He fairly knew ChangMin's kind intention but it wouldn't work when it comes to YooChun. "Believe me, you don't want to go there"
"So, how's YunHo?" YooChun asked, though that guy was more of an asshole, he's still a friend.
"He's -"
"I'm here" YunHo made an appearance, startling all of them.
"Hey, dude! How you doing?" YooChun hugged his friend, in such a friendly manner that ChangMin just wished he was that lucky.
"Better! HeeChul dropped me off before heading to the station. Told me to say 'hi'" YunHo slapped YooChun's back.
"Hi him back" YooChun glared.
"Yun -"
"So. found the culprit?" YunHo asked, startling the excited ChangMin.
"Um...no...not yet" ChangMin replied, unsure what just happened.
"What are you waiting for?" YunHo snapped and glared at the confused boy, who pissed him off further when he turned to look at JaeJoong.
"YunHo, are you okay?" JaeJoong came to ChangMin's rescue. He pitied the boy and what was wrong with YunHo.
"Why wouldn't I?" YunHo snorted.
"You just barely got out and -"
"I need to find this guy and as far as I know, the case hasn't closed yet so..." YunHo walked towards ChangMin "....what are you doing?"
"I...er....I.....I-I-I don't know" ChangMin sighed helplessly. He honestly hasn't had a single clue how to find this person. All he knew, was to get YunHo out, his brother out.
"What?" YunHo huffed as he poked a finger right on ChangMin's chest. "And you call yourself an investigator?"
"YunHo! Stop it!" JaeJoong stood in between them. "He got you out! What's wrong with you?"
"You want to help? Help till the very end, the least you should do" YunHo said.
"YunHo"
"You're right. I'm sorry, YunHo-hyung" ChangMin stared at the floor.
"It's Chief Jung to you" YunHo corrected and ChangMin's face fell.
"YunHo, what is wrong with you?"
Ignoring JaeJoong's pleading eyes, YunHo stared at ChangMin. "Let's get into business. What do you have?"
"Umm...." ChangMin regained his confidence and tried to recall his findings. "I found the device hidden somewhere near the engine and -"
"Hold on!" JaeJoong stopped ChangMin and looked at YunHo. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
"I just want to get this done with" YunHo said.
JaeJoong's eyes fixated at YunHo, stared straight at him and he knew YunHo was a little jumpy and looked away. JaeJoong was trying to figure out what was wrong with YunHo. In less than a day, YunHo has changed his damn mood for so many times that he had lost count. And ChangMin, that boy has done more than he has to, to get his butt out and this was what he got. What is wrong with him?
"No" JaeJoong simply said. "You are not going to do anything else without a 'thank you'"
"Excuse me?" YunHo asked, still refused to look at him.
"You have yet to say that to ChangMin" JaeJoong said, following YunHo's wandering eyes.
"Jae-hyung, it's okay" ChangMin said, clutched onto JaeJoong's hand - like a child - wanting to say that he didn't do it for a 'thank you'.
"Are you defending him?" YunHo asked, staring at the connecting hands.
"From you. Yes!" JaeJoong replied firmly.
"From me?" YunHo laughed. "Or is it because you're fucking him"
"What!?" YooChun and surprisingly, JunSu shouted in unison. The latter was already awake from his slumber land a minute ago, and remained still until YunHo's little statement.
"What are you talking about?" JaeJoong asked. Shock was inevitable.
"I saw you two hugging and all. I get it now, why you were always on his side. Because you two are fucking each other" YunHo held his chest up in anger. "And you know what? I don't care. Should know all along that you were using me!"
His eyes stung. Lips quivering. Hands trembling.
JaeJoong shook his head, wrapped his hands around YunHo. "No, YunHo! I'm not using you. I -"
"And, ChangMin? You can have him" YunHo smirked and shoved JaeJoong at ChangMin, who caught the man just in time before he hit the floor.
JunSu and YooChun gasped at the information YunHo had just uttered and the scene between ChangMin and JaeJoong. YooChun knew all long about JaeJoong and YunHo's secret sexual rendezvous - they often leave him with stacks of paperwork almost every time they solved a case - and now, even ChangMin? Both men were confused. And all this happen in one day?'
"You know what? You win!!!" YunHo scoffed, raised his hands up like he was surrendering.
"I know what you're trying to do" YunHo continued, walking aimlessly around the room - pushing JaeJoong again and again, when the man was trying to tell him something.
"You have everything I own. You want everything I own" YunHo said, stared at ChangMin. "You came in here to take over, didn't you?"
"No, hyung -" ChangMin shook his head.
"You want to make me look bad" YunHo spat angrily.
"No, hyung, listen -"
"You're out to ruin my life...you wanna take my job, my pride, my boyfriend, my -"
"Hyung! Nothing like that!!!" ChangMin grabbed YunHo's shoulder to make him listen. "I genuinely want to help you!"
"Should have known you're just like her" YunHo yanked his arms away. "Scheming. Sneaky. Out to get everyone. Just like that woman! Just like that slu-"
Couldn't stand more of YunHo's harsh words, ChangMin raised his fist and punched YunHo squared on the face. "Watch your bloody mouth, you asshole!!!"
Just when JunSu thought he wouldn't have to watch this whole fighting scene again, all hell breaks loose as ChangMin dropped on the floor, straddling YunHo and sent fist after fist exasperatedly. Mumbling 'You fucking asshole' and 'You better not hurt JaeJoong-hyung and omma ever again or else I'll kill you'; leaving no room for YunHo to retaliate. YooChun just sat there, in his bed, wished he could do something but he couldn't feel his legs yet. He gestured to the new comers - KiBum, JaeBeom and his wife, GaHee - to help break the fight.
When drops of blood spattered near his shoes, JunSu snapped out of his thoughts and pulled ChangMin off YunHo, with an extra help from JaeBeom.
"ChangMin!!!" JaeBeom put his arms right under ChangMin's flinging longer arms and pushed the taller man against the wall. It's the only way to get a raging man off a fight. "Calm down!"
"I'm right, am I?" YunHo got up with JaeJoong's help but shoved the latter away. "Hands off me!"
Reassuring JaeBeom that he had calmed down, he turned around to see his boyfriend standing there with a gasp. "Ki....Bum"
"I think I need to go" KiBum said, forced GaHee to hold the fruit basket before running off.
"Wait....I....it's .....aish!!!" ChangMin made a mad rush to catch KiBum.
"Wait, he and KiBum?" YooChun asked, but no one was paying particular attention to him....maybe except JunSu, who thinks YooChun must be one hell of a failed profiler.
+=+=+=+=+=
"Maybe you should tell him" KiBum suggested, leaning against the lobby wall, waiting for the rain to stop.
"Tell him what?" ChangMin sighed. He tried to get closer to KiBum but every time KiBum would step further. He wished the rain wouldn't stop so soon.
"That you're not related to Counselor Jung" KiBum stated dryly.
"Omma she -"
"If this goes on, one day, she'll lose the both of you" KiBum snapped before ChangMin could say anything.
"Let me talk to omma first" ChangMin nodded and kept his mouth shut.
KiBum was upset more than he was mad. He didn't get much sleep and before he could, it was time to start his day in the library. He was so sleepy before he could reach the bus stop and when he called to take a day off, his superior told him that ChangMin had successfully requested from the Commissioner to take two days off - which the man forgot to inform.
"Why didn't you tell me that you've had requested off days for me?" KiBum asked, he was getting tired of the silence.
ChangMin was caught off guard. "Oh....well, I was busy and-and..."
"With JaeJoong?" KiBum snapped.
"No!!!" ChangMin denied. "I was busy with my studies that -"
"Speaking of that! I had a talk with your professor the other day, and he told me that you weren't suppose to be in his class, or even his faculty and though he was glad that you decided to give it a try, after countless lectures, he was curious as to know why"
"KiBum -" ChangMin tried to explain that his professor wasn't stupid. That man did question him the day he brought KiBum to meet him - hand in hand - and almost every day after that.
Again, KiBum interrupted. "Are you having your fun, Shim ChangMin?"
"What?"
"I may not be as educated as you are but I'm not stupid!" KiBum spat out and stepped out of the shaded lobby.
ChangMin was frustrated. Unlike YunHo, the well known obnoxious man, ChangMin was a very patient man. He could take hours of being in the lab re-doing the report over and over again, he can take wrath from his lecturers when they're not in their finest mood but he hates being cut off in the middle of his talks. It triggers his anger switch and easily goes up like it has no tomorrow.
He ran out and grabbed KiBum's arm, turning him around before bending a little with his right hand holding his chin and gives the boy a kiss on the lips.
He had always wanted to do this ever since he met KiBum and since his explanation wasn't much of help, he might as well do this to convince him. He's not playing games, like what he had thought. He genuinely feels something for him and if this kiss can do that, he's on the willing side.
"What are you doing?" KiBum pushed ChangMin away.
"Proving to you that Jae-hyung and I have nothing going on" ChangMin explained - loud and clear for everybody to hear.
"By kissing me?" KiBum looked away, avoiding the crowd standing around them.
ChangMin mentally smacked himself. What the hell was he doing?
"You kissed like an amateur" KiBum's soft mumble could be heard.
"That...that....was my first kiss" ChangMin admitted shyly.
"You're kidding me" KiBum let out a small chuckle.
ChangMin kept his head down. Embarrassed was an understatement. He waited for the laugh, the laugh his mother often gave him when he told her his birthday wish, 'I want to be kissed' - but it never came. He stole a glimpse at KiBum's direction and felt a lump stuck in his throat when he felt KiBum inching closer to him.
"Are you free later?" KiBum whispered in his sensitive ear.
"Why?"
"Let's practise kissing" KiBum suggested.
"What?" ChangMin blushed, looked away almost immediately when he noticed KiBum's sparkling eyes.
"Practise makes perfect"
"Who would - you know....?" ChangMin asked shyly. He couldn't believe he's going to join a kissing class.
"Me....or you have someone in mind?" KiBum pouted.
"NO! I rather kiss you!" ChangMin blushed in humiliation at his loud confession - making everyone staring at him and chuckled - KiBum was one of them. 'Oh, how embarrassing!'
"Well, then, let's get started!"
KiBum grabbed ChangMin's face and swallowed that sloppy lips in his own.
