After dropping the other members off only Yesung, Ryeowook, Heechul and Leeteuk were left since they had the same schedule.

Despite being tired Heechul didn't feel like sleeping. His thoughts were filled with worry and thoughts of how to help Leeteuk.

He looked at the leader that had his head rested at the window and was dozing off. It looked uncomfortable and every time the car made a bigger movement his head would hit the window. Without thinking about it, Heechul put his arm around the other's shoulder and pulled him towards himself so that the older could rest his head on his shoulder instead.

Then his gazes fell on Yesung and Ryeowook that were sitting right next to them. The two of them were whispering quietly and there was a smile of happiness on their faces. He noticed their linked fingers with Yesung's thump caressing the younger's hand.

Realization struck Heechul. “How come I never noticed? This is so obvious more than just fan service or friendship”.

Leeteuk next to him moved and he suddenly had the urge to push him away but that was impossible because Leeteuk was practically glued onto him. The car stopped and Heechul decided to wake up the leader. "Teukie, wake up we're here." he said stroking the older's hair.

"Ye..ye." Leeteuk said standing up and stretching his arms out. At the same time Heechul was also getting up slowly from his seat but was hit my Leeteuk's arms. "Ahh." Heechul groaned.

"Oh my bad are you okay?" Leeteuk said lifting the younger up from his seat. "I'm fine, just let go." Heechul said pushing aside the older's arm.

Leeteuk stood there standing in place thinking "Oh no what did I do?"  On the side of him was Ryeowook and Yesung who witnessed this awkward moment. The two looked at Leeteuk with smirks displayed on their faces.

"What are you two looking at get going?" Leeteuk said as the two unlocked their hands and headed out. After they went out Leeteuk let out a loud sigh and walked out with a smile for the fans.

On the other hand Heechul was in the men's bathroom washing his face again to wake up more for the 5 hour recording. "Ugh i'm still so tired" he thought, while he squeezed his neck a bit.

He quickly checked his phone for the time, it was 11:53. "Crap!" he cursed. He had to be at the other side of the recording station in 7 minutes. Leeteuk would be more than pissed if he was going to be late.

As he headed out of the bathroom he almost bumped into Ryeowook. “Hyung, here you are! We have been worried about you. Jungsoo Hyung sent me to get you, but I couldn't find you. The recording starts in a few minutes."

“And he couldn't get me himself?!" He didn't know why but the fact that Leeteuk obviously thought him missing wasn't important enough to get him himself pissed him off.

“Sorry Hyung, but he had to talk to the producer” Ryeowook lowered his head and Heechul immediately regretted his harsh tone.

“Sorry Ryeowook-ah. I didn't mean it like that. Let's go just before we are even later. Teukie is already going to kill us anyways"

The younger nodded, but as they headed towards the recording studio he turned towards his Hyung ones again. “Are you okay, Hyung? You seem to be bothered by something”

“I am fine. I guess I just didn't sleep enough” he flashed a reassuring smile towards their 'Eternal Maknae'.

The other nodded again, but there was something weird going on with Heechul that Ryeowook wanted to figure out. The two made it to the correct station with a minute to spare. "Ha~ ha~ sorry we're late." Ryeowook bowed to the MC's and other two memebers. Along with Heechul bowing his head a bit.

"Heechul-ah, where were you?" Leeteuk said placing his hand again on the younger's shoulder. "Mind your own business." the Heechul muttered shrugging off the older's hands and headed up onto the platform.

"Okay! Places everyone!" the PD yelled out for notification. "1,2,3 cue"

MC- "I hear you guys are going to start selling tickets to your Super Show 3 soon?"

"Yes, they are going to be out on June 13th. Just letting you E.L.F's know." Leeteuk said giving a wink into the camera. "Yes please buy them soon while they still last." Heechul added holding onto the older's arm for fan service. On the side there was Ryeowook observing Heechul's actions.

The 5 hour recording soon came to an end and was time for the four to head their next schedule. But they had 15 minutes this their van comes so they had hang out around the station.

Heechul went to the bathroom again. The tiredness had vanished a little after he had a coffee during the recording and he knew the only reason he had gone to the bathroom was to avoid Leeteuk.

What is going on with me?” he asked himself. The two of them had never been awkward with each other, but somehow today he felt annoyed with almost everything the older did, but at the same time he couldn't stop worrying about his leader and it pissed him off even more.

Although during the recording Leeteuk had been all fun and happiness in front of the cameras Heechul could see that he had had a hard time keeping that facade up. They knew each other long enough for the younger to know that his leader was more than tired out.

Why do I even get this annoyed about this? It has always been like this during promotions, hasn't it?” he groaned and splashed some water in his face. He rested his elbows on the sink and buried his face in his hands, the water still running.

Lost in his thoughts he didn't hear their 'Eternal Maknae', who had followed him, enter the bathroom. Only as Ryeowook turned off the faucet Heechul noticed him. "Hyung, your acting weird since yesterday what's going on? Can you tell me?" the younger asked.

"Nothing." Heechul said looking down into the sink. "Really? Hyung i've known you long enough to see if something is wrong or not." Ryeowook complained. "Come on just tell me."

"Well, since yesterday or more like this morning i've been pissed off at whatever Teukie does and I don't know why?" Heechul explained to the younger all the things that has been on his mind.
