Innkeeper
Well, he's done his best. He can't ever know. Will his voice last an hour? Two hours? If he rests it longer? Does it get him three hours?
It's never certain.
So Donghae heaves a sigh. Takes a small notepad. He doesn't want to type. Into his phone. Show it to Hyukjae. Writing feels more personal.
He didn't want to tell anyone. Yet. He did send Jeongsu a message, though. Maybe he'll make some phonecalls. Tell the managers. Not that Donghae wants special treatment. Or free food.
But...
He wants Hyukjae to have a good time.

"You're going where?"
Hyukjae groans quietly. He let that slip too.
"Can you go back to work? Please?"
"What work?" Kyuhyun says. He drops on his bed. "I have nothing to do."
"Find something to do!"
"No. Anyways, Lily, isn't that place what's-his-name's?"
"Yeah, he's a famous MC, Hyukkie!"
"Okay. Should I care?"
"Yes! It's for regular folk but the rich kind! When's the last time you checked the limit on your credit card? And how are you getting there? Are you supposed to pick him up?"
"It's none of your business."
"I can drive you," Ryeowook says. "We can make my car fancier on the outside. And inside. No one will know."
"It's fine."
"Wait, he has a vehicle."
"I said it's fine, guys."
Hayun gasps. "Hyukkie, you can't just walk there!"
"Is it fine dining?"
"No," Hyukjae answers Sungmin.
The man's fixing Hyukjae's clothes. For some reason. Hyukjae keeps glancing at himself. In the mirror. To check if nothing's changed. He'd rather be simple. Neat. Sometimes he likes being a glittering disco ball. Just not tonight.
Now Kyuhyun's off the bed. He's brushing Hyukjae's hair.
"I really don't need this..." Hyukjae mutters.
"Yes, you do."
Kyuhyun turns him. The others stand back. Look him up and down. Hayun claps her hands.
"Good work, men. He looks the same as every day. Good work."
"No, he looks cuter!" Lily exclaims.
"I don't wanna look cute..."<
