Chapter 1
It was hot...
It was loud...
It was bright...
But it was definitely not the concert hall!
Where were he?!
What's with all the noises?!
And the tugging?!
He hates it!
But why can't he open his eyes properly?!
Something was totally wrong!
Wait...
Someone said his name...
Who?
“Kyuhyun?”
Oh, that was Donghae...
“Kyuhyunnie? Can you hear me?”
Donghae again...
With effort and some force, tired deep brown eyes looked up at Donghae who instantly smiled at Kyuhyun.
“Thank God! You're awake!”
Donghae let out breathless.
“Uh...”
“Ah, don't talk too much.
I will explain...”
Donghae took a short pause before he spoke again:
“There was an accident on our way home.
The car you, Leeteuk and Hyukjae were in crashed into another car.
The driver from the other car drove on the wrong side.”
Kyuhyun wasn't able to assimilate the information that fast and so he looked up at Donghae, a little lost and confused.
The older took pity on Kyuhyun and only smiled at him.
“You're not too serious injured but you will be here for a week, I think.
The Doctor haven't said anything precise yet.”
The younger eyed Donghae without uttering a single word.
But when his Bed was moved he reached out to grab Donghaes wrist, silently pleading not to be left alone.
A lovely smile spread on the elders lips as he follows the nurses into Kyuhyuns room.
“I will stay until early evening with you.”
Said Donghae softly, stroking the bangs out of Kyuhyuns face.
“Where are the others?”
Kyuhyuns voice was small but he wanted to know.
“And will I be alone when you're gone?”
“Leeteuk is in another room and all the others are back in the dorms.
And no, you won't be alone. Sungmin is coming, he will stay the night with you.”
Donghae smiled nicely.
He can understand Kyuhyuns fear of being alone in a hospital.
But all the members had made a plan to take shifts at the hospital rooms of Kyuhyun and Leeteuk.
“And now rest. You need all the sleep you can get.”
The brunette leaned over to give him a little kiss on the forehead.
The younger let out a sigh and closed his eyes.
Within seconds he was in dreamland and Donghae could let go of Kyuhyuns hand to drop onto one of the nearby chairs.
He was dead tired but he said to himself the he won't sleep. To big was the fear that he could miss something.
Donghae took his phone and typed a text for Kangin, saying that Kyuhyun has woken up and isn't injured to bad.
After that he slumped more in the chair to lay his head on the backrest.
It couldn't be too bad to close his eyes for a few minutes, just for a little relaxing, right? He won't sleep...
Or so he thought... ...
Chapter 2
Donghae woke up because of an uncomfortable feeling, he felt really cold.
He shivered and tiredly looked around but nothing out of the ordinary was found.
One glance at Kyuhyun told the elder otherwise.
The maknae was incredibly pale and his breathing was racked.
With slight panic pushed Donghae the button for emergency and a few seconds later a male nurse came rushing in.
“What's wrong?”
“He looked fine one hour ago!”
Breathed Hae out and pointed at Kyuhyun.
The male nurse looked at Kyuhyun and then back at Donghae.
“He's having a nightmare.”
And with that the nurse was gone again.
"What the...?!"
Donghae was irritated and sat worried beside Kyuhyun.
"You're having a bad dream, huh?"
He whispered and lightly stroked Kyus cheek, in an attempt to wake the younger one up.
After a short time Kyuhyuns eyelids fluttered open, he looked a little disoriented but recognised Donghae shortly after.
"Are you okay, Kyu?"
"Uhm... yeah... I think so..."
"Any pains?"
"I don't know... I had a horrible dream... I feel numb..."
Donghae let out a silent sigh as he placed a hand on Kyuhyuns chest.
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"I can't precise remember what the dream was about."
Kyuhyun closed his eyes tried.
"Should I call a doctor?"
The younger opened his eyes again.
"No, it's okay... I'm okay."
"You sure?"
Kyuhyun only nodded as a response.
"Don't make us more worried as we already are, okay?"
Donghae chuckled lightly.
"I'm trying."
Kyu grinned a little bit.
"That's good!"
The elder winked at Kyuhyun which let the other lightly chuckle.
Donghae lovingly stroked Kyus hair and glanced at his watch, what caused a frown on the brunettes face.
His watch has stopped at the time he had decided to rest a bit.
And so he took out his mobile phone.
"Huh?"
"What?"
"Nothing."
Donghae smiled a lightly.
-I slept longer than I thought. But where is Sungmin?
He should be here by now...-
"I'm hungry! I will go and buy something to eat.
Do you want something, too?"
"No, thanks."
"Okay, I will be back as fast as I can."
Kyuhyun nodded and smiled a bit.
Donghae left the room with quick steps but was stopped halfway through the hallway, because there was a big riot.
"What's going on?"
Hae asked one of the young nurses.
When she turned around she gaped at Donghae before he got an answer.
"Uh... Lee... Lee Sung... Sungmin is... stuck in the... elevator."
Donghae raised one eyebrow because of her stuttering, than glanced at the elevator doors.
He took a few steps closer and saw a janitor on his knees.
"Is there a signal in there?
Can I call my friend?"
The elder looked up at Donghae and eyed him for a moment.
"You can try, boy. But don't expect to much."
The janitor spat in a raspy voice.
Donghae was a little irritated but said nothing to the unfriendly janitor and just pulled his mobile phone out of his pocket.
He dialled Sungmins number and waited patient.
After a few rings a rather pissed Sungmin answered.
"Donghae! I don't have time right now!"
"Yeah, I thought so, but I'm staying outside the elevator."
"What are they doing?! They should move faster! I'm suffering here! It's so damn hot in here!"
Donghae looked at the janitor.
"How long will it take to free my friend? He said it's really hot in there."
"Hot? That can't be! The heaters are out!"
"Sungmin..."
"Yeah, I heard it!"
"Uhm..."
"Don't! I have to get out of here! It's getting hotter and hotter!"
"Sungmin, don't scream. I can't do anything right now.
The janitor is working on the door right now."
"Right, sorry. Can you tell them I need water?
I think I'm going to faint soon."
"Okay, hang on."
Donghae looked hesitantly to the janitor and then to a doctor nearby.
"Uhm..."
Both, the grumpy janitor and the friendly smiling doctor, looked at Donghae.
"My friend said it's really hot in there and he thinks he will faint soon.
He needs water."
Donghae put his mobile phone back to his ear.
"Sungmin? Still there?"
"Yeah."
Sungmins voice was still angry but weakness clear in his voice, too.
Hae watched as the doctor gave some orders to his nurses and the janitor called for help.
"Minni-Hyung, we're gonna get you out of there as soon as possible, okay?"
"Yeah, please be fast..."
"Sungmin, keep talking, okay?"
"Don't know what to say..."
"Tell me how Hyukjae is doing."
Donghaes voice was a little desperate, he wanted his Hyung to keep talking so that the elder would stay awake.
"Oh, he's doing fine. Only a few bruises, nothing serious. He was asleep when I was leaving."
"That's good. Has he got medicine?"
Donghae stayed the whole time with Kyuhyun, because he was the first who arrived at the hospital and the maknae was the one with the most serious injuries.
Leeteuk had Siwon by his side and Hyukjae only had a few, more or less bad, bruises.
"Yeah, some cream and pain killers, I think."
Sungmin let out a silent yawn.
At that time the janitor opened the door successfully.
Good luck that the elevator stopped where you can peek inside the cabin.
Blazing hot air came out of the gap as Donghae peeked over the janitors shoulder and managed to see Sungmin, sweating and barely awake.
The nurse who was ordered by the doctor gave Sungmin a bottle of water, which the latter instantly grabbed and swallowed half of the water.
With a relieved sigh Sungmin stepped closer to the gab.
"When will I be able to get out of here?"
The grumpy janitor looked at Sungmin and huffed in an annoyed tone:
"Boy, I've said it already: I don't know!"
Sungmin was a little irritated and peeked through the gap at Donghae, who crouched down and put his hand out to be taken by Sungmin.
The latter gladly took Donghaes hand and squeezed his fingers a little.
The janitors worked hard so that they could open the doors wider, that they could Sungmin pull out through the gap.
After a few minutes, which felt like hours, they could Sungmin finally pull out of the elevator cabin.
The blonde breathed hard and was sweating, he gulped down the rest of the water.
Donghae hugged his Hyung short but hard.
The doctor questioned Sungmin how he felt and such, but the blonde just asked for a shower and possibly fresh clothes.
One of the nurses let Sungmin to the staff showers and fetched him hospital clothes, some sort of sport pants and a wide t-shirt in faint pink.
Donghae was the whole time by Sungmins side and now sat in front of the shower doors.
"How long have you been in there?"
Donghae raised his voice a little so that Sungmin could hear him over the running water.
"I don't really know... I think it was a hour or so..."
It was a little hard to hear the elder over the shower.
"Is it okay that I leave you and Kyu alone?"
"Yeah, I'm okay, really."
When Sungmin came out of the shower room he was clad in the hospital clothes, he looked down at Donghae on the floor.
The latter stood up again.
"Okay, then I will go back to the dorms now."
The both hugged again and bit goodbye.
With that Sungmin went to Kyuhyuns room.
He knocked softly on the door before he opened it.
Kyuhyun looked up and smiled in an instant but then he frowned.
"What's with these clothes?"
The younger knows that his bunny doesn’t have fashion sense but this was new.
"Hi to you, too, Kyu."
Sungmin grinned a little.
The maknae sheepishly smiled before he extended his hand.
Sungmin gladly came to his boyfriend and took a seat next to him on the edge of the bed.
"How are you feeling, Kyu?"
The blonde looked lovingly at Kyuhyun.
"Ah... I think it's not that bad. They gave me strong pain killers."
"That's good."
Sungmin smiled and gave his boyfriend a little lovingly peck on the lips.
"And now... what's with this kind of clothes?"
Kyuhyun asked bemused.
Sungmin let out a deep sigh.
"I was stuck in the elevator. It was damn hot in there, so I took a shower and lend some clothes."
"Awww, is my bunny okay?"
Kyuhyun pulled his Hyung closer to his body.
"Yeah, I'm good."
Sungmin smiled and snuggled close to Kyuhyun.
