Highway to Hell
Chapter 1
TeacherKyu~!
Ryeowook paced around the living room, confused.
"Who to ask?" he mumbled to himself, biting his thumb lightly. He looked down at his learner's permit that was proudly poking out of his hoodie's pocket and smiled. He had finally acquired it after trying hard for so long! But now the problem arises…who was going to supervise his driving? In fact, who was gonna help him, this being his first time driving for 'real'?
Donghae and Eunhyuk were out somewhere, maybe fooling around like usual. Siwon had gone to the church, today being Sunday and all. Kibum had tagged along with him, having nothing better to do. Kangin, Shindong, Heechul, Hangeng and Zhou Mi were out on schedules. Sungmin and Yesung were sleeping in their rooms and he won't even dare to wake them up. That left Leeteuk, Kyuhyun and Henry.
"Ryeongu? What are you doing here?"
Speak of the devil, Ryeowook thought as he saw Kyuhyun emerge from his room after playing Starcraft for hours.
Kyuhyun looked at the guy pacing around. Suddenly his eyes caught sight of something poking out of his pocket. He went over and took it out. "Oh! You got your learner's permit!"
"Yeah." Ryeowook said, looking at the card in his friend's hand.
"Then why the long face? You should be happy, shouldn't you?" Kyuhyun questioned, placing the card back in his pocket.
"No, I am happy but…" Ryeowook trailed off.
"But?" Kyuhyun prompted him to speak further.
"But I need someone to help me." Ryeowook said grimly.
Kyuhyun smirked at him. "Don't tell me…are you nervous?"
Ryeowook shook his head. "Of course I am not! But it's my first time so I thought that taking someone who knew how to drive may come in handy. If you don't wanna come, just say so!"
"Hey hey hey calm down now. No need to get hyper, okay? And to be frank, you never asked me, did you?" Kyuhyun teased him, nudging him with his elbow a little bit too strongly which caused Ryeowook to stumble sideways.
Ryeowook pouted before asking, "Will you, the great Kyu, help me?"
"Of course why not! Come on le-!" Kyuhyun was cut short by Leeteuk.
"Where are you guys headed off to?" he questioned them, entering the room.
"Oh, Wookie got his Learner's permit and was begging me- No I wasn't!- Okay okay sheesh, anyways, he was gonna take me on a drive so I could help him as it is his first time and crap."
"Oh that's great Wook! Congrats!" Leeteuk congratulated him, hugging the smaller guy.
"Thanks hyung."
"Mind if I accompany you both?"
"Of course, maybe even you can teach Ryeongu some tricks or stuff!"
"Okay, you guys go ahead I will just bring my car keys!" Ryeowook said, diving towards his room.
Soon all three of them were sitting in a black SUV, Kyuhyun behind the wheel.
"Okay Wookie, I am gonna show you some basic techniques and tomorrow you are gonna perform them, got it?" Kyuhyun said, receiving a happy nod from the brunette. "Cool!"
He ignited the engine and gently pulled out of the drive way. Leeteuk smiled to himself, nearly jumping in excitement. He had never witnessed any of his maknaes' driving so he was really ecstatic. He silenced the side of his brain that said that something really wrong and dangerous was gonna happen.
Kyuhyun continued to explain the basics of 'driving' to his newly acquired student.
"Okay, so driving is like what I do in daily life." Ryeowook repeated after his teacher, nodding in understanding.
"Like for example, for me driving is life Starcraft!" Kyuhyun declared proudly earning applause from his student.
Leeteuk looked at them unsurely, not liking where this conversation was headed to because the results could turn hazardous.
In front, both the maknaes ignored their hyung in the back and continued on with their class.
"For me, every single thing that dares to intrude in front of me is an enemy. And my mission is to eradicate every single fucking one of them. This is gonna be your mission from now on too 'cus driving is all about erasing the others from the road. If you won't then the others are gonna eradicate you, understood?"
"Yes sir!"
"Good. Now to use the 'special powers' you need to be as crafty as you can. Apart from singing, what are you the best in?" Kyuhyun questioned him, gliding sharply through the lanes. Behind them Leeteuk was tightly clutching the seat, not wanting to get flung over the side.
"Uh…cooking!" Ryeowook chirped. Kyuhyun nodded in understanding before continuing on with his lecture.
"You know that cooking is a type of art, ne?" Kyuhyun questioned receiving a nod.
"Likewise, driving is an art too. The art of destruction!" Kyuhyun declared, making Leeteuk gasp when he took a 90 degree turn towards the expressway at 120 mph. FUCKING 120 MPH!
He was more horrified when he saw the eternal maknae laugh in delight and nod.
Oh God, save me! Save me from them! He thought, his hands gripping the back of Ryeowook's seat so tightly that the fabric was starting to tear.
"Look, now I will teach you the most basic move one can perform. You love cooking that means that you also know how to bake, right?"
Ryeowook nodded gleefully nearly jumping from his seat in excitement.
"I call this move, 'Smash the Eggs!'" Kyuhyun declared proudly before swerving off course and hitting the breaks, making the tires squeal and the car spin in circles. The spinning car went over to the indicators beside the road and threw them off, smashing them. "See! They were smashed!"
On the backseat, Leeteuk was already heaving out the contents of his stomach. Once done, he leaned heavily against the back rest.
'Sorry Heechul-ah, I was the one who used and emptied your strawberry scented shampoo but I just wasn't able to resist! It made my hair so soft and made them smell so good!
Sorry Yesung-ah, I was the one who accidentally left Ddangkoma on floor that day from where he wandered off into the kitchen. Ryeowook and Sungmin weren't trying to cook him.
Sorry Hankyung-ah, I lied to you about your accent being fine. I just wasn't able to tolerate you barging into my room every few seconds to ask if you spoke something right or not.'
His further apologies were cut short when he felt himself become weightless. He dared to look out of the window and screamed when he saw that they were flying over a fucking load of cars.
"This is what is called a real hurdle jump!" Kyuhyun declared while Ryeowook just giggled and clapped in glee beside him.
"STOP KYU! Please!" Leeteuk cried, holding onto the handle above the door. He wanted to get out of this hellish ride!
"Hyung don't be a spoil sport! Kyu's driving is so fantastic!" Ryeowook said, smiling as if they hadn't avoided an oncoming barrage of trucks just now. Barely, period.
"Aww thanks Wook!" Kyu thanked him.
"Look on the road!" Leeteuk shrieked from behind when they barely avoided an oncoming car. He didn't care for all the shouts and rude gestures being thrown their way, he just needed to get out. Now!
With a new found resolve, he tried to pull the door open. When it didn't budge, he resorted to kicking.
"Hyung? What are you trying to do?" Ryeowook questioned him, turning around once he heard the loud thumping noises. They were distracting him from his precious class.
"I am trying to get the bloody hell outta here!" Leeteuk said between kicks.
"Oh but it won't open hyung. The doors won't open after a certain speed limit had been crossed. Safety reasons ya know." Ryeowook informed him.
'But sitting in this car in itself is a safety hazard! Both for me and the ones outside!' Leeteuk thought as he seized his futile attempts and resigned to his fate. He groaned, wanting to cry.
"Ohkayyy! Let's teach you the 'Pancake Flip', should we?"
"YAAAY!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
That fateful day, a certain Teukie's cries were heard throughout the South Korea.
That night…
Sungmin walked out of his room, stretching. Having taken a bath after sleeping for 17 hours straight, had refreshed him greatly. He frowned when he spotted two figures sitting on the couch, one hunched over while the other patting his back.
"Hey Wook, Kyu! What happened to you guys? Why are you looking so sullen?" he questioned, sitting down beside Ryeowook.
"Teukie hyung took Kyu's driving license. He said that such hazards shouldn't be let loose on the road or something." Ryeowook said patting Kyuhyun's back sympathetically. Unnoticed by the maknaes, Sungmin lightly cheered in the background. After all, he had been the one who had accompanied Kyu on his first drive after the younger had acquired his permit. After that, Sungmin had nearly ransacked the whole country in search of the crazy instructor who gave Kyuhyun that permit.
"Awww that's so sad." Sungmin said, faking sadness even though he was dancing and whooping in his mind.
"Yeah right, his driving was really great too." Ryeowook sighed sadly.
'Yeah, so great that he had nearly wiped off a whole lane of houses from the face of the Earth while trying to parallel-park.' Sungmin thought sarcastically, smiling.
