Jaejoong’s heart melted for a moment as he saw Yunho who was so happy and satisfied. Jaejoong was a few months older than Yunho, so he sometimes felt like a big brother, although Yunho was obviously manlier than Jaejoong and the band members saw him as the protector in their group. He was the band leader anyway. Jaejoong had rather soft features. When he used to have longer hair when he was younger a lot of people thought he was a girl. As time went by, some manlier features came but the image as the beauty didn’t seem to go away. For the comeback of TVXQ after a pause because of an injury they had exercised a lot in order to become manlier and get their bodies in shape to fit their ages of over 20 years. Even if Jaejoong’s body indeed looked like a man’s body, he still appeared slimmer compared to the other members. A main reason was probably his very slim waist, although he had a broad back.
By now, Travis had spotted some seats at the bar and as they were walking there they were stopped by two girls who reverently asked for an autograph. Of course Jaejoong and Yunho did them this favor. »It’s a pleasure to have such loyal fans« Yunho sweet-talked around and both of the girls turned totally red and didn’t know what to say. »But aren’t you a little too young to go out this late?« The girls giggled and got even more red. »I bet you two still go to school. I don’t want to make your mothers complain that your bad grades are our fault. The girls caught looked at each other and were totally over the moon with Yunho’s voice and the intimate way he talked to them.
Finally, they went home to not disappoint their god. Jaejoong hit him on the back. »You always have to do that and just can’t let go, huh? Look, how you caused them embarrassment.« »I’m sorry, mom« he replied and pushed him with his elbow. »Casanova« Jaejoong murmured.
Indeed Jaejoong represented the mother for the band members. He was a kind of replacement. He did not only have feminine features but also did the women’s work. He cooked, he often had to clean after his band members, and he was responsible for the daily order.
Travis ordered two Mexican beers for them what they immediately got. The DJ also noticed them and started to play a dance version of one of their older songs. That already became kind of a rite since they began to go to this club. Jaejoong was happy each time the people heard their music and everyone began to dance. »We could dance, too, by way of change« Jaejoong shouted through the loud music. Yunho shrugged his shoulders and was just going to say something when he noticed that his cell phone was vibrating in his pocket. He signalized that he had to pick up. Jaejoong would have really liked to dance in a club again instead of always studying those never-ending choreographies. In his opinion it was way to many anyway and noone, maybe except for Yunho, could memorize all of them.
Yunho was already a passionate dancer in his teenage years and would rather just dance every day instead of singing and thinking of new lyrics. Jaejoong had discovered his fascination for music pretty late and didn’t want to be anything but a singer. The whole dancing thing was sometimes beyond his capabilities.
While Jaejoong looked at the euphoric crowd on the dance floor Yunho came back to him, his phone still in his hand. »We gotta go« he said nervously. He noticed the disappointed look from Jaejoong but said nothing. They left the undrunk drinks at the bar while Yunho dragged Jaejoong out of the club on his arm but still focused to not hurt him.
As they arrived on the street he let go and let him walk alone but Jaejoong immediately stopped walking and seemed wistful. Yunho felt a little bit bad for his friend who deserved a little bit of fun after so much work. »Max« he tried to explain without using many words. »What?« »Changmin is on his way to our apartment.« »What?« Jaejoong asked again but was more surprised than confused this time.
Since about Yoochun’s and Junsu’s coming out they had decided who they would pick as their fifth band member. They had noticed that four people weren’t enough for a polyphonic song and they chose Changmin. He was even younger than their youngest member but still he was exactly the tipe pf voice and personality they were looking for.
»Why already today?« »That was actually the plan but we forgot it because of all the stress. I’m glad that he called. He’ll arrive in about two hours. »We could have danced in those two hours.« Jaejoong was frustrated but Yunho couldn’t even see that anymore because he was already heading to the car while Jaejoong tried to keep up.
The Audi’s noise stopped in the underground garage and it was dead silent when they got out of the car. Their apartment took almost a whole level in the building and rarely anyone else lived there. »Hello?« Yunho called and the echo answered him. »Yoochun and Junsu obviously seem to have found some other kind of amusement« Jaejoong determined and the picture of a gay couple having a date confused him. »Yeah, yeah...«Yunho grumbled. »They
are your best friends. Why don’t you just let them be as they are and be happy for them?«Jaejoong complained. »Hooray!«Yunho shouted bored. »That’s new to me that you have something against gays« Jaejoong kept on annoying him on purpose and jokingly twined himself around him. »I’m gonna clear out some things out of my room then« Yunho said and untied himself.
The room-sharing seemed pretty difficult as they became a fifth member. There was a lot of space in the apartment but it was mostly used for unnecessary things like a fitness room, walk-in closets, and countless storerooms. Jaejoong and Yoochun always used to share a room until Junsu and Yoochun wanted to move in together. Jaejoong had volunteered to give his bed to Junsu which they rid of to buy a queen-sized bed. At that time nobody thought about the fact that it would have been easier if Yoochun had moved into Junsu’s room and Jaejoong had kept his room and the two beds. Such ab ed could be helpful in case they would get a new member, which was the case right now.
Since Yunho and Jaejoong didn’t need to be ashamed of each other and knew the one another as a brother, it was no problem for them to share a bed for a period of time. The bed was big enough anyway, so that nothing like awkward could happen.
Jaejoong helped Yunho with his stuff and brought it into his room. It happened quick because some things were still in boxes from their moving-in into the apartment not long ago. While Jaejoong made the bed over and over again, Yunho stood in the door and examined him skeptically. »Will that always be like this when I’m living here?«»What?« Jaejoong was completely into his work. »I’m talking about your mania for cleaning, you twit.«But Jaejoong didn’t even listen. He was used to the lasting teasing because of his habits and already knew that the guys weren’t serious. Actually everyone was happy about it.
»Ok, twenty minutes left« Yunho murmured. »We could have danced« Jaejoong grumbled frustrated. »Instead of dancing you could put new sheets on the bed.« »Eh?« »Do you think that I sleep with you under the same blanket? Also one that you have used for days?« »You should be happy that I don’t make you sleep on the couch.
They could hear a key in the apartment’s door and the Junsu’s happy voice filled the air. Yunho just turned around in the door, while Jaejoong tried to squeeze past hi. Yunho shrugged confused as Jaejoong came so near but Jaejoong didn’t notice that at all.
»I assume you didn’t think about Changmin, either?« Junsu’s eyes widened as he remembered. Prompt he started babbling hectically. They didn’t really understand him and he blamed Yoochun for always confusing him. He was ashamed that they seemed so unreliable. »That’s indeed unreliable« Jaejoong said to show that he at least understood that part.
»What?« A young, friendly voice resounded from the door which was left open by Yoochun. »Sorry for gatecrashing this. Someday let me in downstairs and your door was open. Changmin smiled shyly and Jaejoong already liked him. He was happy to have chosen him. »No Problem« the bandleader spoke. »Welcome to your new home. Do you need help with your luggage?« Changmin was obviously happy to be welcomed so nicely and not to have met just a bunch of arrogant singers. He nodded.
The late evening went by fast and happily it was weekend because they stayed awake the whole night to talk and get to know each other. Yoochun and Junsu had decided that it would be better if they didn’t tell Changmin about them. Body contact was prevented and the smallest comments were held back. That was also more relaxing for Jaejoong. Long after midnight everyone became tired and Jaejoong already fell asleep on the couch. Changmin still didn’t unpack his stuff and Junsu and Yoochun seemed to have some other plans before they went to sleep, too. They went to their rooms and only Jaejoong was left slumbering on the couch. Yunho was halfway to his room when he noticed that Jaejoong was laying in the living room.
There weren’t many people who could sleep so calmly like Jaejoong. When he was asleep he seemed to be absolutely happy and satisfied. Yunho stopped and thought if he should really wake Jaejoong up, leave him sleeping on the couch, or just carry him into their bed. Finally he galvanized him softly. »Sleepy head. You really don’t notice anything. Everyone’s sleeping already.« Jaejoong craned his head in surprise.
He couldn’t say anything except for a tired grunt and slowly sat up. When he stood up he stumbled and he lost his vision for a second. Luckily Yunho could handle the weight of a whole body, otherwise Jaejoong would have lain in pieces of glass of the table. »Come on now« Yunho said and laid Jaejoong’s arm around his shoulders to support him.
»I’m not retarded.« Jaejoong’s voice sounded much more alert than before. Seconds before they reached the bed, he jumped down and kept on stumbling alone. When Yunho followed him Jaejoong turned around in confuse. »Oh, right. You’re sleeping here, too« he remembered and took of his shoes. Then the pants followed. He fell on the bed with a shirt and boxers and didn’t even bother to slide under the blanket. Yunho was still standing next to the bed.
He felt uncomfortable to sleep in one bed with Jaejoong. After all what has happened...He sighed, took everything except for his boxers an t-shirt of, too, and went to bed. »Don’t broaden, alright?« Jaejoong’s answer was a quiet, consistent snoring. Yunho smiled and turned off the little lamp.
