Drabbles/One-Shots (Sichul x2, Kyuhae, Sungwook, and a WHAT now?)
The point of the drabbles/oneshots this time around is to help me become more comfortable with pairings I don't normally write. Because I so badly want to do the 100 SuJu oneshot challenge thing, but all the different pairings just blow my mind and I would probably do them injustice
Since the ratings of these ones differ, I've put the ratings next to each drabble. But I guess these are mostly short oneshots, since they're much too long to be drabbles (so I think).
( 1) God || SiChul (#1) || PG )
( 2) Mandarin || KyuHae (#1) || PG )
( 3) Roles || SungWook (#1) || PG )
( 4) Kneeling || SiChul (#2) ('God' Reprise. The first half is the same; the ending is different.) || PG-13/T )
And, because I couldn't help myself....
( 5) Trust || Yesung/Ddangkkoma (#1) || PG13 )

Drabbles/One-shots (Kihae, Yewook, Kyumin, Eunhae)
Apparently I get all my inspiration at 3 in the morning.
Uhm, so here are several drabbles/oneshots I came up with at 3 in the morning (see above). I guess I'll post onto communities in the new year, since I'm SUPPOSEDLY not writing in 2009 anymore. I have the strangest feeling my New Year goals for 2010 are going to fail epically.
All drabbles can be considered PG rating. Three of them have happy endings. Said three have a bit of fluff sticking out of them.
( Waiting || Kihae (#10) )
( Piano || Yewook (#2) )
( Proclamation || Kyumin (#6) )
( Fable || Eunhae (#1) )

KyuMin: Heart (#5)

Heart
"Hyung, is there something I can give you? Anything I can do to make up for this...?"
Sungmin had given him his all, and everyone knew it. It wasn't something Sungmin wanted everyone knowing; he was just very bad at hiding this fact from everyone, Kyuhyun included.
Kyuhyun had known, but Kyuhyun hadn't considered him. Because in the end, Sungmin had lost.
Sungmin wished he could say it didn't hurt, to have tried so hard yet to see it all fall. But he knew his heart would catch him, accuse him of lying....
Because it did hurt.
Sungmin had given him his all, and everyone knew it. It wasn't something Sungmin wanted everyone knowing, but he hated how people saw him as "his favorite hyung," Kyuhyun included.
Sungmin knew it wasn't Kyuhyun's fault. It wasn't his fault that his heart had different interests than Sungmin's.
Right?
In the end, Sungmin had lost everything to Kyuhyun.
Because in the end, Kyuhyun had chosen Zhou Mi.
"Hyung, is there something I can give you? Anything I can do to make up for this...?"
"Kyu... can you give me back my heart?"
The goal behind this one was to portray an emotion with as few words as possible; as I'm notoriously a man of words, it was my attempt to express an emotion without ranting.
I hope I've succeeded?

KiHae: Competition (#9)
PURE CRACK. On the bright side, I found out today that I got straight As for the semester. Hurray for surviving another semester of college~!
Title: Competition (#9)

Description: In the end, you're not quite like us. But I guess we have to give you credit for trying.
Competition
Kibum doesn't really know who to blame.
He certainly remembers how it all began. It was one morning over the weekend, when their schedules didn't demand them to wake up at ungodly hours. Because they weren't in a hurry to go anywhere, the members that were present had decided to eat breakfast together -- and even though the breakfast was merely cereal and nothing special, being able to eat a bowl of cereal in a thirty-minute span was unique enough.
It had been a conversation during this particular meal that began it all. Kibum doesn't really remember anymore how the conversation had begun; all he remembers is Sungmin randomly asking everyone if they knew who Hankyung was currently with.
"He's with Kyuhyun, I think," Ryeowook had said.
"He's what?"
"Ah, Sungmin-ah," said Yesung, "I think Wookie means that's who he's with right now. They went to the city with Henry and Zhou Mi, remember?"
"He went to the city with Zhou Mi?" Kibum remembers laughing at Sungmin's frustration; served the man right for being too inquisitive and for nosy-ing around in other people's businesses.
"Ah, but to answer seriously, isn't he with Siwon?" asked Donghae when Sungmin had been successfully convinced of Kyuhyun's loyalty to him and him only. "I remember when we were touring in China those two shared a room, and there were interesting noises coming from that room."
"Wasn't Kyuhyun and Zhou Mi's room right next door, though?" asked Ryeowook, though this time it was clear in his expression that his remark had been intentional.
"Kyu wouldn't~!" Sungmin cried, indignantly (and perhaps unknowingly) stabbing his cereal with his spoon.
"Don't listen to him," Kibum decided to tell his hyung, perhaps out of pity. At that time, the conversation was innocent; if Kibum had known where the conversation was headed, perhaps he would've let them continue harassing Sungmin. Maybe then they would've never reached that topic....
"Ah, but if I remember correctly," said Yesung, pulling the mischievous Ryeowook closer to his grasp and away from the deadly Sungmin; "wasn't Heechul all over Hankyung the other day? I mean, nothing wrong with skinship, but...."
"I was thinking that," said Sungmin thoughtfully, "and that was why I was beginning to wonder. But then I thought Heechul does that to everyone. I mean, who hasn't he kissed?--and if you say he hasn't kissed you, then you're lying and just ashamed of it."
"To be honest," said Eunhyuk, who had remained silent at his end of the table up until this point; "I thought he was with Heechul."
"Let's take a vote!" said Donghae, his eyes filled with inspiration and curiosity. "In favor of Hankyung with Siwon?" At this Donghae raised his hand immediately; Ryeowook and Sungmin were the only one to follow. In contrast Kibum, Eunhyuk, and Yesung had raised their hands in Heechul's favor.
"Unofficially, it's Hanchul then," Donghae finished conclusively, turning to Sungmin. "Why did you ask, anyway? You think Hankyung's two-timing both of them?"
"I already said, I was wondering about Heechul. And I don't know if he's two-timing them or what, but it's got me curious...."
"Ah," said Kibum, shaking his head. "Maybe we should leave it alone. It's their business, right? Let them do what they want."
He'd been trying to be fair, really. He still wishes they had listened to him, that even Donghae -- his own boyfriend -- would listen to him. But all he'd gotten in response, from both Donghae and Sungmin, had been:
"Ah, you're no fun Kibummie! Stop being such a spoilsport!"
As a result of that conversation, Kibum had been forced to endure endless conversations regarding the mystery of Hankyung's relationship status. He tried to maintain his neutrality on the matter, but with the topic sprouting forth everywhere it was really quite hard to ignore. He was actually surprised that none of the three in question ever made any mention of the suddenly popular conversational topic; Kibum had been sure that, somewhere down the line, at least one of the three would have overheard.
Opinions started to change as time passed. For instance, within a day Yesung had changed his vote from Heechul to Siwon. But Kibum saw this outcome coming from a mile away; he already knew that Yesung would convert his vote to whatever Ryeowook's was in order to appease the other man. Actually, what intrigued Kibum more was whether Yesung was really now in favor of Siwon and not merely saying so.
Even people who hadn't been in the conversation began making their guesses. Kangin cast his vote for Heechul, claiming that only an idiot would think Hankyung was with Siwon; Shindong gave a rather similar vote, making his basis on random events in the past that even Kibum had forgotten about. In contrast, Henry and Zhou Mi both said Siwon, though Kibum thought that might've been a little biased since Heechul tended to annoy them ("foreigners") whenever they were around each other.
Kyuhyun had taken to Siwon's side also, and though he had a rather legitimate reason as his basis (though it'd been similar to Donghae's) Kibum was sure that the nature of Kyuhyun's position was much like Yesung's had been. But for some reason he found himself pitying Kyuhyun for being cracked under Sungmin's whip, while he felt no such remorse for Yesung.
As it seemed, Super Junior M members seemed to know something that caused them all to pick Siwon. This included Donghae, who seemed to be the only person who wasn't swaying votes just to appease a significant other. Actually, it was probably more accurate to say that Kibum wasn't the one swaying votes, because every other hour Donghae had given him speeches about why Kibum should pick Siwon over Heechul.
Kibum can't say he didn't try to get Donghae out of the mess. "Hae," he remembers saying, "It's really none of our business. Just let them be."
"But don't you want to know?" And it was then that Kibum decided convincing Donghae was a lost cause.
The situation was much more inflated than it needed to be. Kibum doesn't even remember when Donghae and Sungmin had begun using a notebook to keep tallies on "Hanchul" and "Sihan" moments. Sometimes the two would get into fights about why it was Hanchul and not Heekyung (and similarly Sihan and not... whatever term had Hankyung on top), and it usually took either Kibum or Kyuhyun's efforts to make the debate stop; usually it was Kyuhyun, who'd always say "Sungminnie, I promise to choose you over Starcraft if you stop arguing about this."
And that usually worked more than Kibum's "Hae, leave them alone."
Much as Kibum had expected, the three in question finally did catch on.
One day, as the group was on a bus headed for a press meeting, Heechul had called for everyone's attention. With voice loud and clear, he yelled, "Quit it with this Hanchul and Sihan crap already, all right? You're all wrong! It's SiHanChul!"
And of course, as everyone began to whisper to each other their opinions regarding this newly disclosed information, it was only Leeteuk who'd said, "Heechul, we know already, why are you telling us this?"
Kibum wishes it had ended there. But it hadn't.
It was perhaps a day after Heechul's comment that Donghae approached him. Kibum remembers that day perfectly too; the man had put on his best pair of puppy eyes, looking both irresistible and likable at the same time. And Kibum probably would've opened his mouth to say "Yes, I'll do anything you say," if it hadn't been for Donghae's eagerness to spew his new plan at rocket speed.
"Repeat. Slower."
So Donghae had. "So Yesung and Ryeowook were saying at lunch how they were now officially Super Junior's most perfect couple, since the whole Hankyung business is now a threesome and not a couple."
"When you say threesome, you make it sound like all they do is have--"
"--but then Sungmin and Kyuhyun cut them off and began saying how they were the perfect couple."
Kibum had sighed. "Hae, if you're trying to say that we're the perfect couple... well, I'd comp--"
"But then Heechul said that they were the perfect threesome! But then I was thinking, you know, they're only Super Junior's perfect threesome because they are the only threesome! So I was thinking...."
Kibum is surprised how fast he'd managed to catch on to Donghae's train of thought, and so before Donghae even managed to say it aloud Kibum rejected him completely. But Kibum supposes Donghae had come equipped with a pair of sad puppy eyes for a reason....
"...who'd you have in mind?"
A day later, Kibum found himself sharing Donghae with Eunhyuk. Actually, he didn't and still doesn't really know why that other man even agreed to the stupidity of Donghae's idea; Kibum himself didn't really mind so long as he didn't have to do anything with Eunhyuk.
And so, within another day, SiHanChul had been presented with its competition.
Kibum doesn't really know who to blame.
He could (and probably will) blame Sungmin, who had brought up the stupid question about who Hankyung was with. And then he could blame Kyuhyun for being whipped and not repressing the man like he should've been.
He could also blame Hankyung for causing Sungmin to be so damn curious. And then he could blame Heechul for having to spill the awful yet inspiring (to Donghae, at least) truth.
He could (and probably wouldn't) blame Donghae also, for suggesting the stupid idea of adding Eunhyuk to their relationship in order to become the perfect threesome.
He could blame Eunhyuk for agreeing to Donghae's stupid idea.
He could blame Yesung and Ryeowook for claiming to be the perfect couple, thus provoking Donghae.
Kibum is a very posessive and protective person, and he absolutely despises the idea of having to share Donghae; as a consequence, unwillingly being in a threesome pisses him off to no end. But whoever Kibum ended up blaming for it in the end, it doesn't change the fact that, because of Donghae's stupid idea, Kibum sees and spends less time with Donghae.
Because for some reason, even though Donghae sees them as the supposedly perfect threesome, he chooses to invest his interests in Eunhyuk instead.
One day, as Kibum distastefully watches Donghae cuddle with Eunhyuk in front of the television, Heechul decides its time for an intervention.
"Who are you kidding?" Heechul says with a laugh, motioning his free hand to Donghae and Eunhyuk. "Perfect threesome?"
"That didn't come from me."
"Does Donghae even know what the word threesome means?" Heechul asks suddenly, giving the question some thought. "From my perspective it's like he's subconsciously dumped you for Hyukkie there."
Kibum frowns. "You think so?" He doesn't really want to think about that truth -- no, that possibility. It couldn't be true. Donghae was probably just lost in the moment... that had to be it.
"Probably not, but you never know. It's definitely not a threesome. Threesomes are all about... a perfect balance, so to speak. You gotta treat everyone fairly. You can't make anyone feel bored or jealous. Well... actually, I take back that last part. Jealousy only adds to the fun later on."
"You think that's what Donghae's doing to me?"
Heechul laughs, but shakes his head. "Ah, no, I don't think I'd put something like that past him...." The two turned to the two sitting on the couch; Kibum's gut clenches when he sees Donghae's head lying on Eunhyuk's stomach, staring up with the goofiest smile upon his face. And to think, that used to be him Donghae would give those smiles to....
"I say slap Donghae back to reality," Heechul says with certainty. "End this stupid game of threesomes--because we're obviously the only ones who can pull it off."
"Hae wouldn't like that idea."
"But it's the truth, and the truth hurts. Now go and claim what's rightfully yours." Kibum nods and gives his thanks, but in the end he doesn't talk to Donghae about it then; instead he takes a seat on Eunhyuk's other side, receiving a mere (yet happy) greeting on Donghae's part.
In the end, Kibum decides that Heechul doesn't actually give advice because he cares about Kibum's well-being. Rather, Heechul had only helped him out in order to defend his title with Hankyung and Siwon. And though Kibum himself doesn't really care much for such a title, he can't help but to give Heechul props for his craftiness.
Kibum probably puts up with their "threesome" for another two days at most. Actually, it's when Donghae decides to give Eunhyuk a kiss on the cheek that Kibum realizes that enough is enough. But he doesn't even have to grab Donghae by the wrist to drag him away from that thief; somehow Donghae manages to meet him halfway.
"Kibummie!" Donghae says with a laugh, clearly ignoring Kibum's glares of death.
"Talk. Now." Kibum doesn't know why he chooses the bathroom as a place to hold their conversation, but within moments he throws Donghae in and slams the door shut.
"Kibummie?"
"This needs to end," growls Kibum. "This needs to end now. Your threesome has got to the stupidest, most insane, stupidest, senseless... stupidest idea you've ever come up with! How is even fair that I have to share you just to compete with some stupid title that even fits you? If you prefer him over me then why don't you just--"
But Kibum never finishes, because at that point Donghae decides to throw himself on Kibum. The younger man protests at first, but the instant Donghae smothers his lips on his own Kibum finds no reason to resist or retort back. Their kiss is enthralling, bruising, desperate, passionate... but then.
"What the bloody hell, Hae," Kibum curses, pulling apart to catch his breath. "I'm the one who should desperately be wanting this, not you! I'm the one who's been deprived of Donghae because you've been spending more time with him!"
Donghae only laughs, shaking his head. "Ah, you think so? I only did it because you're the most unresponsive boyfriend ever!"
Kibum stares blankly. "Unresponsive? Me? -- and you did what?"
"Hyukkie agreed to fake being a part of a threesome so I could make you jealous~!" Donghae says happily. "No offense, Kibummie, but you barely even hold me, even when we hug."
"That's not true, I--"
"--it is true, Kibummie. I mean, Yesung and Ryeowook hold each other all the time, and Kyuhyun gives Sungmin kisses whenever he wants one. But you--"
"I kiss you, Hae."
"Like a mother kisses her daughter, yeah. But I'm your boyfriend, Kibummie." Kibum merely stares. So this had been the truth of it all? So in the end, the person to blame was none other than Kibum himself, for not believing in public displays of affection?
Screw that.
"You want to see a kiss?" Kibum challenges, and before Donghae replies their mouths meet once more. Kibum is dominating and possessive, and he makes sure in his kiss and in his actions that he is anything but an unresponsive boyfriend.
He misses Donghae's sly and triumphant smirk between their kisses entirely.
In the end, Kibum blames himself. But he doesn't really mind the outcome, so he tends to congratulate himself instead.
Although, he admits he becomes a little worried when one day, during yet another idle breakfast meal, Sungmin asks everyone what it means to top in a threesome. Heechul informs everyone that if there were really a top in their relationship then he would be it, merely because he has the whip cracked on the other two; Kyuhyun immediately turns down this claim, saying that though Sungmin has him under the whip he has never once bottomed.
Not only does this new conversation give him unwanted new information, but Kibum also fears it will give Donghae new ideas. Kibum can already see it now: "Kibummie, I think you should let me top for once~! Heechul was saying the other day--"
The idea scares Kibum at first, but in the end Kibum doesn't really give it much thought. It was Donghae, after all. After their escapade in the bathroom, any sex with Donghae would be worth it in the end.
(Ultimately Kibum decides that, though everything began with questioning Hankyung, in the end Heechul somehow had become the center of attention. Not that anyone had found this surprising, though).
There is a highly likely chance that this one-shot will be revisited in the distant future. More specifically, there's a good chance the sex scene I skipped (I actually wrote about 500 words of it, but deleted it because I couldn't stop laughing as I was writing) will be rewritten. That'll appear in my writing journal, though, and I'll let everyone know when it does show up (or just friend me, either way).
Anyway, this is my last contribution to the SuJu fandom for the 2009 year. I have other projects I've been neglecting, so I'll be working on those from now on. I hope you've all enjoyed what I've contributed, and I'll see you in the new year~!

And that usually worked more than Kibum's "Hae, leave them alone."
Much as Kibum had expected, the three in question finally did catch on.
One day, as the group was on a bus headed for a press meeting, Heechul had called for everyone's attention. With voice loud and clear, he yelled, "Quit it with this Hanchul and Sihan crap already, all right? You're all wrong! It's SiHanChul!"
And of course, as everyone began to whisper to each other their opinions regarding this newly disclosed information, it was only Leeteuk who'd said, "Heechul, we know already, why are you telling us this?"
Kibum wishes it had ended there. But it hadn't.
It was perhaps a day after Heechul's comment that Donghae approached him. Kibum remembers that day perfectly too; the man had put on his best pair of puppy eyes, looking both irresistible and likable at the same time. And Kibum probably would've opened his mouth to say "Yes, I'll do anything you say," if it hadn't been for Donghae's eagerness to spew his new plan at rocket speed.
"Repeat. Slower."
So Donghae had. "So Yesung and Ryeowook were saying at lunch how they were now officially Super Junior's most perfect couple, since the whole Hankyung business is now a threesome and not a couple."
"When you say threesome, you make it sound like all they do is have--"
"--but then Sungmin and Kyuhyun cut them off and began saying how they were the perfect couple."
Kibum had sighed. "Hae, if you're trying to say that we're the perfect couple... well, I'd comp--"
"But then Heechul said that they were the perfect threesome! But then I was thinking, you know, they're only Super Junior's perfect threesome because they are the only threesome! So I was thinking...."
Kibum is surprised how fast he'd managed to catch on to Donghae's train of thought, and so before Donghae even managed to say it aloud Kibum rejected him completely. But Kibum supposes Donghae had come equipped with a pair of sad puppy eyes for a reason....
"...who'd you have in mind?"
A day later, Kibum found himself sharing Donghae with Eunhyuk. Actually, he didn't and still doesn't really know why that other man even agreed to the stupidity of Donghae's idea; Kibum himself didn't really mind so long as he didn't have to do anything with Eunhyuk.
And so, within another day, SiHanChul had been presented with its competition.
Kibum doesn't really know who to blame.
He could (and probably will) blame Sungmin, who had brought up the stupid question about who Hankyung was with. And then he could blame Kyuhyun for being whipped and not repressing the man like he should've been.
He could also blame Hankyung for causing Sungmin to be so damn curious. And then he could blame Heechul for having to spill the awful yet inspiring (to Donghae, at least) truth.
He could (and probably wouldn't) blame Donghae also, for suggesting the stupid idea of adding Eunhyuk to their relationship in order to become the perfect threesome.
He could blame Eunhyuk for agreeing to Donghae's stupid idea.
He could blame Yesung and Ryeowook for claiming to be the perfect couple, thus provoking Donghae.
Kibum is a very posessive and protective person, and he absolutely despises the idea of having to share Donghae; as a consequence, unwillingly being in a threesome pisses him off to no end. But whoever Kibum ended up blaming for it in the end, it doesn't change the fact that, because of Donghae's stupid idea, Kibum sees and spends less time with Donghae.
Because for some reason, even though Donghae sees them as the supposedly perfect threesome, he chooses to invest his interests in Eunhyuk instead.
One day, as Kibum distastefully watches Donghae cuddle with Eunhyuk in front of the television, Heechul decides its time for an intervention.
"Who are you kidding?" Heechul says with a laugh, motioning his free hand to Donghae and Eunhyuk. "Perfect threesome?"
"That didn't come from me."
"Does Donghae even know what the word threesome means?" Heechul asks suddenly, giving the question some thought. "From my perspective it's like he's subconsciously dumped you for Hyukkie there."
Kibum frowns. "You think so?" He doesn't really want to think about that truth -- no, that possibility. It couldn't be true. Donghae was probably just lost in the moment... that had to be it.
"Probably not, but you never know. It's definitely not a threesome. Threesomes are all about... a perfect balance, so to speak. You gotta treat everyone fairly. You can't make anyone feel bored or jealous. Well... actually, I take back that last part. Jealousy only adds to the fun later on."
"You think that's what Donghae's doing to me?"
Heechul laughs, but shakes his head. "Ah, no, I don't think I'd put something like that past him...." The two turned to the two sitting on the couch; Kibum's gut clenches when he sees Donghae's head lying on Eunhyuk's stomach, staring up with the goofiest smile upon his face. And to think, that used to be him Donghae would give those smiles to....
"I say slap Donghae back to reality," Heechul says with certainty. "End this stupid game of threesomes--because we're obviously the only ones who can pull it off."
"Hae wouldn't like that idea."
"But it's the truth, and the truth hurts. Now go and claim what's rightfully yours." Kibum nods and gives his thanks, but in the end he doesn't talk to Donghae about it then; instead he takes a seat on Eunhyuk's other side, receiving a mere (yet happy) greeting on Donghae's part.
In the end, Kibum decides that Heechul doesn't actually give advice because he cares about Kibum's well-being. Rather, Heechul had only helped him out in order to defend his title with Hankyung and Siwon. And though Kibum himself doesn't really care much for such a title, he can't help but to give Heechul props for his craftiness.
Kibum probably puts up with their "threesome" for another two days at most. Actually, it's when Donghae decides to give Eunhyuk a kiss on the cheek that Kibum realizes that enough is enough. But he doesn't even have to grab Donghae by the wrist to drag him away from that thief; somehow Donghae manages to meet him halfway.
"Kibummie!" Donghae says with a laugh, clearly ignoring Kibum's glares of death.
"Talk. Now." Kibum doesn't know why he chooses the bathroom as a place to hold their conversation, but within moments he throws Donghae in and slams the door shut.
"Kibummie?"
"This needs to end," growls Kibum. "This needs to end now. Your threesome has got to the stupidest, most insane, stupidest, senseless... stupidest idea you've ever come up with! How is even fair that I have to share you just to compete with some stupid title that even fits you? If you prefer him over me then why don't you just--"
But Kibum never finishes, because at that point Donghae decides to throw himself on Kibum. The younger man protests at first, but the instant Donghae smothers his lips on his own Kibum finds no reason to resist or retort back. Their kiss is enthralling, bruising, desperate, passionate... but then.
"What the bloody hell, Hae," Kibum curses, pulling apart to catch his breath. "I'm the one who should desperately be wanting this, not you! I'm the one who's been deprived of Donghae because you've been spending more time with him!"
Donghae only laughs, shaking his head. "Ah, you think so? I only did it because you're the most unresponsive boyfriend ever!"
Kibum stares blankly. "Unresponsive? Me? -- and you did what?"
"Hyukkie agreed to fake being a part of a threesome so I could make you jealous~!" Donghae says happily. "No offense, Kibummie, but you barely even hold me, even when we hug."
"That's not true, I--"
"--it is true, Kibummie. I mean, Yesung and Ryeowook hold each other all the time, and Kyuhyun gives Sungmin kisses whenever he wants one. But you--"
"I kiss you, Hae."
"Like a mother kisses her daughter, yeah. But I'm your boyfriend, Kibummie." Kibum merely stares. So this had been the truth of it all? So in the end, the person to blame was none other than Kibum himself, for not believing in public displays of affection?
Screw that.
"You want to see a kiss?" Kibum challenges, and before Donghae replies their mouths meet once more. Kibum is dominating and possessive, and he makes sure in his kiss and in his actions that he is anything but an unresponsive boyfriend.
He misses Donghae's sly and triumphant smirk between their kisses entirely.
In the end, Kibum blames himself. But he doesn't really mind the outcome, so he tends to congratulate himself instead.
Although, he admits he becomes a little worried when one day, during yet another idle breakfast meal, Sungmin asks everyone what it means to top in a threesome. Heechul informs everyone that if there were really a top in their relationship then he would be it, merely because he has the whip cracked on the other two; Kyuhyun immediately turns down this claim, saying that though Sungmin has him under the whip he has never once bottomed.
Not only does this new conversation give him unwanted new information, but Kibum also fears it will give Donghae new ideas. Kibum can already see it now: "Kibummie, I think you should let me top for once~! Heechul was saying the other day--"
The idea scares Kibum at first, but in the end Kibum doesn't really give it much thought. It was Donghae, after all. After their escapade in the bathroom, any sex with Donghae would be worth it in the end.
(Ultimately Kibum decides that, though everything began with questioning Hankyung, in the end Heechul somehow had become the center of attention. Not that anyone had found this surprising, though).
There is a highly likely chance that this one-shot will be revisited in the distant future. More specifically, there's a good chance the sex scene I skipped (I actually wrote about 500 words of it, but deleted it because I couldn't stop laughing as I was writing) will be rewritten. That'll appear in my writing journal, though, and I'll let everyone know when it does show up (or just friend me, either way).
Anyway, this is my last contribution to the SuJu fandom for the 2009 year. I have other projects I've been neglecting, so I'll be working on those from now on. I hope you've all enjoyed what I've contributed, and I'll see you in the new year~!
