Zhou Mi buttoned up his lab coat and walked into the lab only to find Leeteuk already there, working on something that looked complicated. He crept up behind the other, realizing when he was about fifteen feet away, that it probably wasn't a good idea to scare him.

"Hi, Leeteuk-hyung!" he chirped. The other didn't answer. Sighing, he walked forward. Hearing his footsteps (but how did he not hear my voice?) Leeteuk looked up and smiled.

"Hello, Zhou Mi!"

"What are you working on?"

"Oh, just a little experiment."

"What will it do?"

"I don't know! Want to help!"

"...Sure."

Zhou Mi had been around long enough to know that when Leeteuk experimented, it could get very dangerous very quickly. Since he had been alone in the lab, there was no way Zhou Mi could leave him alone without feeling incredibly guilty. He took a stool and sat, watching the experiment. Leeteuk picked up a test tube full of a strange purple liquid and poured it into a beaker full of a greenish gas. Suddenly, it started fizzing and Leeteuk backed away warily.

Zhou Mi's eyes widened. "Um...hyung? What was that?"

Leeteuk shrugged. "I just picked the ones with the pretty colors!"

Zhou Mi's head hit the table. "Why on earth would you do that?"

Leeteuk blushed. "Because...because I thought you'd like it if it looked pretty?" The words came out as a whisper.

Shocked, Zhou Mi looked at him and noticed the blush on Leeteuk's face. "...For me?" he asked awkwardly. Leeteuk nodded shyly and moved towards him.

"I know you like pretty things...so I wanted to make something pretty for you...because I think you-you're...pretty..."

Zhou Mi pulled him into a kiss just as the forgotten experiment exploded.

"SWEET JESUS HYUNG IT'S IN MY HAIR!"

"OH GOD WHAT DO WE DO? ARE YOU OKAY?"

"YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT MY HAIR, DO SOMETHING!"

"DON'T YOU TALK TO ME SO INFORMALLY!"

The other members heard the shouting and ran in, but upon seeing what had happened they all turned around and walked right back out before the bickering pair spotted them.
