Chapter 11: A Date?! (1/2)

(A/N) Dedicated to my babies, Kpopgorgeous and Cheesezard :D <u>Chapter 11: A Date?!</u>   <tt>“Ugghh.” Sungmin groaned while running his fingers through his matted hair. He brought Kyuhyun’s handkerchief underneath the running water in the sink and moistened it.</tt>

<tt>Rubbing the wet cloth over his hair, Sungmin looked at his reflection in the mirror of the restroom.

“The hell am I such a klutz.” He cursed softly while grimacing at his hair. His clumsiness has brought him nothing but trouble.</tt>

<tt>Sungmin resisted the urge to smack himself in the head while remembering what caused the entire incident in the first place.

Kyuhyun announced sheepishly,” Nari-shi, please do include blueberries along with the raspberries on Cho Ahra’s Wedding Cake.”

Nari raised an eyebrow curiously for confirmation from Sungmin who standing right beside Kyuhyun,” Umm..Sungmin-shi?”

Understanding the middle-aged woman, Sungmin hurriedly nodded,” I hope that wouldnt be a problem.”

“Oh no..that’s a lovely thought!” Nari smiled softly while rummaging through the file which held the blueprint of the Wedding Cake.

Sungmin and Kyuhyun looked at each other in awkward silence as the petite woman proceeded to scribble down the addition into her notes.

Putting down the pencil, Nari beamed warmly,”So when are you two planning to place an order to your Wedding Cake, hmm?”

The duo spluttered in unison as they jumped away from each other,” W-wha.. we arent-”

“Oh please, I know a couple when I see one.” Nari winked at the gaping duo and proceeded to shoo them out of the cabin.

Lost in thoughts, Sungmin stumbled into the corridor with Kyuhyun at his heels.

Marriage. To Kyuhyun.

His eyes widened at the imagination of Kyuhyun gently waiting for him at the altar.

Oh my ack-

“What the clucking shit..” Sungmin shrieked as his head smacked against a tall metal trolley and consequently causing the bucket of chocolate icing to fall.

Kyuhyun gripped Sungmin’s shoulders firmly as the icing proceeded to drip down from his hair to his forehead, covering the entirety of his face.

“Sungmin, are you alright?” Kyuhyun called out worriedly while helping the embarrassed man to place the bucket of icing to the floor.

</tt>

<tt>So that was what had happened. Sungmin banged his head against the restroom wall, feeling too sheepish at the memory of how Kyuhyun had continued to wipe off the icing from his cheeks delicately.</tt>

<tt>How freaking embarrassing.</tt>

<tt>With awkward steps Sungmin stumbled out of the restroom and walked hesitatingly to the table where Ahra and Kyuhyun were seemingly arguing about something and Yesung looking at the both of them with an amused smile over his lips.

Sungmin wanted nothing but to run away from the luncheon and wail about how his clumsiness curse resurfaced to haunt him.

As Sungmin kept debating whether to walk closer towards the table, Ahra kept prodding her baby brother for answers.

“I told you Noona! We werent doing anything like that!” Kyuhyun protested with the tip of his ears turning red at the suggestive things Ahra kept saying.

“Oh please, Kyubaby. You cant fool me! You were going to lick Sungmin-ah’s cheek werent you?” Ahra teased more enjoying how the normally poised businessman kept squirming in embarrassment over her naughty words.

“Yesung hyung!” Kyuhyun complained looking at Yesung for support.

Yesung raised his hands up into the air and murmured,”You’re on your own Kyuhyunnie. God knows what things swim through young mind these days.”

“Hyung!” Kyuhyun gasped, feeling scandalized at Yesung’s words.

“Now hush you two, I see Sungmin-ah. We dont want to scare him off, now do we?” Ahra scolded completely forgetting who had brought up the entire conversation in the first place.</tt>

<tt>“But but.” Kyuhyun protested hotly.</tt>

<tt>“Hush Kyubaby!” Ahra growled as Sungmin walked closer to their table in small hesitant steps.

~~</tt>

<tt>“So Sungmin, how is work treating you?” Ahra asked after setting down the carte. She nodded politely as the server for their table bowed slightly before rushing to the kitchen with their food choices.

Sungmin tugged at his locks awkwardly and mumbled,”It’s alright.”

“Aww, Sungmin your hair!” Ahra cooed softly leaning over the the flustered man an bringing her fingers to his head.

“T-thank you, Noona.” Sungmin mumbled shyly as Ahra proceeded to brush her fingers through his hair, putting them back to place with a kind smile on her face.</tt>

<tt>“There. Doesnt it look fine now, baby Kyu?” Ahra smiled while settling back into the chair.</tt>

<tt>Kyuhyun locked eyes with Sungmin’s gorgeous amber orbs and he exhaled sharply,”Y-yeah.”

Yesung rolled his eyes at how obvious Kyuhyun was being and he murmured softly to Ahra,” Love, did you see-”

She squeezed her fiance’s hand softly under the table knowingly before remarking,”So you two are now dating is it?”</tt>

<tt>“I-”

“We-”</tt>

<tt>They started together with a tell-a-tale expressions on their guilty faces.</tt>

<tt>Seeing Sungmin squirming with the table napkin, Kyuhyun retorted sharply,”It’s not really your business, noona.”

A flash of hurt passed by Ahra’s eyes” I was just-”

“Noona..” Sungmin called out softly seeing the dismayed expression on Ahra’s face.</tt>
