Step Brothers • SunKi • #1

"Your heart is beating way too fast, Riki" Sunoo said. He finally pulled away from the tight hug to see Riki.

"Are you really okay? You're sweating and your face is red" Sunoo said.

"I- I'm fine. It's just hot" Riki said.

"Oh, really?" Sunoo mumbled and Riki nodded.

Sunoo finally moved away from Riki. He stood up infront of him.

"I'm gonna take a bath, let's go" Sunoo said.

"Huh? Why?"

"What do you mean why? We always take a bath together, Riki"

Yes. They always take a bath together. I mean, they're brothers so it's normal.

"Uh- you can go first, hyung"

"Are you shy now?" Sunoo asked, teasing the younger.

"N-no, just- go take a bath already" Riki sighed.

"But whyyy?~" Sunoo whined.

"Hyung, I swear if you don't take bath right now, you'll sleep on the couch" Riki said. Sunoo laughed at him and gave up.

Sunoo pulled the hem of his shirt and took it off. Riki nervously gulped after seeing Sunoo's body, his milky white and soft skin. Sunoo's hair became messy, which made him look hot.

Riki looked away and immediately grabbed a pillow and put it on his laps after getting a reaction down there. (Y'know what I'm talking about, right?)

"Are you seriously not taking a bath with me?" Sunoo asked one more time. This time, Riki answered with a frown.

"Tomorrow. I'll take a bath with you tomorrow but now, you can go first" Riki said.

"Promise?"

"Yes, yes. I promise" Riki sighed. Sunoo nodded and smiled as he enter the bathroom inside their room.

Once Sunoo disappeared and after Riki heard the water coming from the shower, Riki began thinking.

"What's going on with me? What's with this damn reaction? Why is my heart's beating so fast whenever Sunoo hyung is around? Fuck, this is bad. He's my step brother!" Riki mumbled to himself. Unfortunately, he calmed down.

"It's nothing, we're step brothers. Yes, it's nothing" Riki repeatedly said to himself.

After a few minutes of waiting, someone knocked on the door. Riki was sure that it's their mother so he immediately stood up and opened the door, revealing his mom who's carrying a tray.

"Where's your brother?" Mrs. Kim asked as she went inside the bedroom and placed the tray into the small table.

"Taking a bath" Riki answered.

"Oh, okay. You should eat now"

"No, I'll wait for Sunoo hyung"

"But I thought he's taking a bath?"

"He is but I think he's almost done so I'll wait for him. You know I don't eat without Sunoo hyung, mom" Riki playfully rolled his eyes.

"Of course, I know that.. by the way, Cheolsoo, how's school?" Mrs. Kim asked. Riki groaned after hearing the name.

"Mom, I told you not to call me Cheolsoo. Anyways, I'm doing good at school. I don't know about Sunoo hyung"

"Does Sunoo.. have a boyfriend?"

"What? No, he doesn't have" Riki said even though he's not sure.

"Are you lying to protect your brother so I won't get mad?"

"Of course not! First of all, I'm not lying. Second, he really doesn't have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Last, I would meet the guy first and get to know him myself. I don't want Sunoo hyung to get hurt" Riki said, making his mom smile.

"You really love your brother, huh?"

"Yes, I do. I'll do anything just for Sunoo hyung"

"Aw my baby is matured now" Mrs. Kim said and hugged Riki.

Exactly when she hugged Riki, the door of the bathroom opened. Sunoo came out half naked and has a towel around his waist.

"Wow you guys are hugging without me? I'm hurt!" Sunoo dramatically said and held his chest, making his step brother and mom laugh.

"Come here" Mrs. Kim gestured Sunoo to come close. Sunoo immediately walked towards them and joined the hug.

"My two babies are now a grown up man"

"Only me, Sunoo hyung is still a baby" Riki said.

"Hey, I'm older than you!" Sunoo said. Riki just laughed and snaked his arms around Sunoo's bare waist since their mom is still hugging them. It shocked Sunoo at first.

After a minute, Mrs. Kim finally let the two of them go.

"Alright, time to eat dinner" Mrs. Kim said. She ruffled their hair before going out of the bedroom. Sunoo locked the door again after his mom left.

There's an awkward silence between the two of them. Riki realized that his hands are still on Sunoo's waist so he immediately moved away and sat on the floor, facing the table.

"You should change into your pajamas, it's cold" Riki said. Sunoo nodded and giggled as he walked towards his cabinet to grab some clothes.

Sunoo didn't mind getting inside the bathroom to change and just directly removed the towel on his waist. Riki looked away and patiently waited for Sunoo to finish.

A few minutes after, Sunoo sat beside Riki. They usually talk while eating but this time, it was quiet. Sunoo grabbed the remote on the side and opened the television to lessen the awkwardness.

"Hyung" Riki called.

"Hmm?"

"I love you"

"I love you too" Sunoo replied without hesitation.

Both of them smiled at each other as they continue to eat their dinner.

Meanwhile, there's a thought that disturbed Riki and Sunoo. Both of them is thinking if..

"Do I like my step brother? Or worst, love him romantically?"
