#01
– Ring
Jaejoong
used to look at the silver band on his ring finger and wish for the sacred
meaning it could never have.
#02 – Hero
Every morning that Yoochun woke up to find himself in
the arms of his lover, he thanked God for sending him the one whom he owned his
sanity – his personal hero.
#03 – Memory
Watching his lover go about his day, Jaejoong
catalogues every single movement, every smile, every flicker of dark eyes,
stores it all in his memory as an empty cellar – for he never wants to be
alone again.
#04 – Box
Sometimes Yoochun thinks that Jaejoong is more
complicated and dangerous than Pandora’s Box, but nothing would make him let
go.
#05 – Run
Running away never helped, shutting his eyes never
healed his wounds, swallowing tears never made them less bitter; from the very
start Jaejoong knew that no rules would apply to them.
#06 – Hurricane
Loving was like standing in the eye of hurricane, both
vigorously breathtaking and terrifying, Jaejoong told him once, and Yoochun
couldn’t help but agree.
#07 – Wings
Jaejoong often compared himself to Icarus, who had
fallen in love with the sun and created waxen wings to fly closer to his lover,
and who died from his own foolishness. (*)
#08 – Cold
“I am cold”, Jaejoong says, and immediately a pair
of arms go around him; he smiles.
#09 – Red
“I like you in red”, Yoochun says, and watches with
a smile as the shirt comes of revealing pale flesh.
#10 – Drink
Yoochun drinks on his lips, and swallows on the groans
and knows that he has already become an addict.
#11 – Midnight
He can’t sleep so he watches the dance of the
moonlight on the skin of Jaejoong’s bare back.
#12 – Temptation
Jaejoong is angry and pissed off and the series of
“fuck you”s run freely off his tongue, until Yoochun leans close to him and
whispers: “Don’t temp me”.
#13 – View
Jaejoong can see the blue sky reflected in his
lover’s orbs and it is the best view he could get.
#14 – Music
“I love to make your body sing with the music of our
love”, says Yoochun and makes Jaejoong blush.
#15 – Silk
The silken touch of his lips, the smoothness of his
skin, the gentleness in every move is the only things Jaejoong can think of when
he watches Yoochun.
#16 – Cover
A hand covers his eyes, and warm lips ghost over his as
a gentle whisper reaches his ears, “I am home”, and Jaejoong knows that he
could never be happier.
#17 – Promise
They promised each other never promise anything; and
they kept their promise.
#18 – Dream
Too often both of them thought that it all was some
kind of a dream, so they made it their principle – never to question anything.
#19 – Candle
Yoochun blows the nineteen candles on his birthday cake
and wishes never to be more happy then he is already.
#20 – Talent
“What’s your biggest talent?” he is asked and
while he contemplates it, Yoochun lends a quick kiss on his cheek saying
“Being loved by me, of course!”.
#21 – Silence
Silence speaks volumes, when Yoochun comes back home
smelling of alcohol and floral perfume and finds Jaejoong wide-awake sitting on
the couch, waiting for him.
#22 – Journey
He wants to ask ‘where have you been?’ and more
importantly ‘who have you been with?’ and maybe ‘why do you do this to
me?’, but all he can say is “welcome back, Yoochun” and then he stands up
and leaves.
#23 – Fire
Jaejoong founds himself feeling empty without the love
flowing through his veins like a liquid fire, so he loses himself in anger.
#24 – Strength
“I won’t beg him, I am stronger than this”, he
says to his own reflection, but the Jaejoong he sees in the mirror doesn’t
believe him in a bit.
#25 – Mask
He puts on his mask of a porcelain beauty in place,
locks his heart and throws the key away, and swears never to love again.
#26 – Ice
His body feels like an ice to him, but when he whispers
‘I am cold’, there are no hands to keep him warm.
#27 – Fall
Fall has always been his most favorite season, but this
year picking up a yellow leaf Jaejoong can’t help thinking about withering and
death.
#28 – Forgotten
“Nothing is forgotten, Yoochun”, he says without
looking into his eyes, because even after all this time it hurts him to hurt
Yoochun.
#29 – Dance
Yoochun watches Jaejoong move and remembers all those
nights they spent together and thinks that he is not worth of even being in the
same room with him, that is why he leaves.
#30 – Body
But on his way out his body betrays Yoochun and his
feet lead him in the wrong direction and
his fingers reach and brush briefly over the tantalizing body which once used to
be his.
#31 – Sacred
“What we had was sacred, but you ruined it”, hears
Yoochun, but he is past the point of caring.
#32 – Farewells
They split their ways, erased each other from their
memory, pretended as if nothing had ever happened – they had no courage even
to say goodbyes.
#33 – World
Yoochun traveled around the globe, changing places and
time zones on a whim, staying as far as possible from the country and the one
person he had ever loved.
#34 – Formal
When they met next time, Jaejoong almost didn’t
recognize Yoochun, and it wasn’t because of the looks but because of the
formality with which he bowed and said “Nice to meet you”.
#35 – Fever
That night he found himself burning with the same fever
of desire, the one he thought he had got rid of when he had left
#36 – Laugh
Yoochun looks into his glass more filled with whiskey
then ice and can’t help laughing at the irony of it all – after all these
years…
#37 – Lies
It was so easy to lie to himself, when he wasn’t
around, that he had forgotten him, if not forgiven, but that night lies sounded
even less believable to Yoochun.
#38 – Forever
“You said it would last forever” is the first thing
Yoochun hears when he picks up the phone, and then “Why did you return?”
#39 - Overwhelmed
And suddenly it is too much and not enough time and he
is short of breath, but all those thoughts suppressed for so many years, all
those emotions and tears go pouring out of him and he simply can’t stop saying
‘I am sorry’.
#40 – Whisper
“I am sorry too”, Jaejoong whispers to him and
hangs up, because he may do something really stupid if he doesn’t; he may
forgive him.
#41 – Wait
And Yoochun waits, because he has always waited for
him, and he prays, though he thought he had forgotten how, and he drinks,
because he can’t sleep and doesn’t want to think.
#42 – Talk
“We.. need to talk”, and it is far better than
anything Yoochun has heard in years.
#43 – Search
Jaejoong looks into the other’s eyes, searching for
the possible reasons why he invited Yoochun to his place, and sees the same boy
he had fallen in love with.
#44 – Hope
Yoochun doesn’t dare to hope – he crossed that word
from his vocabulary five years ago – he simply waits.
#45 – Eclipse
“All these years”, Jaejoong starts thoughtfully,
“I was wandering in darkness, absolutely clueless about where the sun had
disappeared”, then pauses and looking briefly at Yoochun continues “I never
knew I had killed it myself”.
#46 - Gravity
‘I am floating’ thinks Jaejoong, because it is the
only way he can explain the feeling when Yoochun embraces him.
#47 – Highway
The hands on his face are luxuriously warm and the lips
ghost over his and Jaejoong thinks that he hears ‘the road to hell is paved
with good intentions’ and he is laughing like he has never done in years.
#48 – Unknown
The body underneath his is both painfully familiar and
unexpectedly strange and Yoochun has to learn every curve of it all over again,
and get acquainted with the taste of pale skin and get used to the gasps and
moans that escape him.
#49 – Lock
Jaejoong blinks first at the key in his hand and then
at Yoochun in question, but he only smiles and says, “This is a key to my
heart”.
#50 – Breathe
Lying side by side, in a warm embrace Jaejoong believes
no promises, but this – he breathes in a familiar scent and smiles.
(*) I messed up the myth about Icarus on purpose. I did
a 4 year course in World literature which included ancient Greek literature and
myths, you know.
