So I never really got around to finishing it... if anyone is reading this I am really sorry :( This chap is all I've got left. Well... here goes..

~*~

Clunk. My eyes snap open. The train has ceased its movement and I lift my head. I blink my eyes. Once, twice, to clear the haze glazing them. I look at the window and see Busan Train Station sign in a faded blue colour just outside the grey concrete station. Being the last stop, the train stays for more than the usual three minutes as people rise from their seats and gather their belongings, some stretching after the long journey, and make their way out the train. To wake up from my daze I stand up and stretch my arms up into the air. And then I remembered I wasn’t alone.

“Sorry.” I muttered to Changmin, who is looking at me with a smile tugging at his lip.

“Did you sleep well?” He asks, putting his book into his brown man-bag, Jaejoong calls it.

“Oh. Yeah. Were you reading all this time?”

“Hmm..”

“Wow. Because whenever I read on moving stuff I get really dizzy and feel like I’m going to vomit. Guess it’s only for some people.”

“Maybe I’m used to it?” he questions, getting our stuff from the overhead rack. “Here.”

“Thanks.”

We walk through the aisles behind an elderly couple who look like they’re having troubles carrying their belongings. Changmin, being the sometimes-nice-person he is, offers to help.

“Here, let me help, too.” I ask the grandma, taking some of the heavier bags from her.

“Oh. Thank you so much.” She smiles at me.

The couple’s son is waiting at the station and he said he’d bring the car around. So we wait and help load the stuff into the car.

“Aigoo, it’s hard to find nice kids these days. Thank you so much. You must be very lucky to have such a handsome and kind boyfriend. You make a very adorable couple,” says grandma as she pats my back and gets into the minivan.

“Uh.. he’s not my–“ I start. But it’s pointless. She’s not going to hear me anyway so I just stand there beside the car as Changmin and the son finishes loading. I start to read the signs around me when Changmin takes his place next to me and I hear the car door closing. Through the tinted windows I can still see the figure of the grandma and grandpa. So I wave and smile at them as they drive away.

“So, we’re an adorable couple, huh?” Changmin teases, obviously overhearing what grandma said to me.

“Yeah. I guess so.” I reply. There’s no way I’m the only one blushing about this one. “So how do we get to your grandma’s place?” I ask. 

“We can take a taxi there. It’s not that far from here but if we walk it could take a while.”

While he calls for a cab I look around the station, trying to find an ad, a picture, or something to look at. I find one of those panels that tell you what train is leaving in what time to where. Changmin sits on the bench I’m standing next to.

“Changmin-ssi, when is our train back?” I ask. He looks up strangely to me. “Not that I’m ready to leave or not want to say or anything, just curious.”

“Hmm.. Since today is a Tuesday… we should be going back on Saturday afternoon.”

“Oh. Okay.” I reply as the matte white cab with a yellow taxi lights above it drive over. Changmin tells the driver the address through the half-rolled down shotgun window. The man nods his head and mutters yes. As I reach for the door handle, Changmin beat me to it and tips his head in the direction of the door.

“Ladies first.” He said.

“Now you say that.” I say back but get in anyway. He goes in after me, and when he sits, you could tell he is uncomfortable with the way his knees are hitting the front seat.

“Your fault for having long legs.” I comment.

“But doesn’t that make me more handsome?” he teases, playing with his eyebrows.

“Says you.” I reply and turn to face the window.

As the taxi drives further away from the station, the civilization thins to only a few small houses every few fields. The green mountains in the distance creates dimension to the scenery. Everywhere you see there is a little speck of nature’s touch in it. I marvel at its beauty. We take turns and curves that are unfamiliar to me but that don’t bother me. Looks like I am going to be eco-friendly this week, I think.

In about 20 minutes we arrive at a small cottage-sized house in the middle of… well, nowhere. We pay 50:50 for the taxi fare because I insist I pay and he insists he pays. I swear I could hear the driver mutter ‘cute couple’ under his breath before rolling up the window and driving away. Geez.. what’s with old people and ‘couple’ stuff today anyway?

As we turn around we are welcomed by Changmin’s mother who I swear looks A LOT like him. They have similar looking eyes and you can’t not mention their lips. It’s an exact replica.

“Annyeonghaseyo.” I bow to Mrs. Shim.

“Ah. Ye. Annyeonghaseyo. This must be… Ah! What was it again? I am so horrible with names.” She smiles at me.

“My name is Lee Seohyun. Sorry to bother you.”

“No, no, no. Thank you for helping I’m just busy with work and all that I can’t be here for my own mother. Thank you so much for coming Seohyun-ssi. And for keeping our Changmin company when all his hyungs decide to leave him,” she jokes. “Changmin-ah I’m only here to tell you what grandma needs. All the medications that she need to take, what she shouldn’t eat, and things like that. I have to go later to take care of your sisters.”

“Okay.” Changmin simply replies.

“Now let’s go inside and put your stuff away. You must be tired from the long trip here. I made some food for a light lunch. Come, Seohyun-ssi. Just treat it as your own home.”

“You can call me Seohyun. Mrs. Shim.”

“Then you can call me Umma.” I see Changmin gives her a look that she just shrugs off as she takes my hand and leads me into the house.

She takes me through a wooden door into a small guestroom with some chairs and a coffee table. It is exactly as I imagined it to be, except neater. Off to my right there is a short wooden shelf filled with pictures of smiling faces of people.

“Seohyun, let me show you to your room.” Umma’s voice interrupts my thoughts.

“Ah. Yes.” I carry my bags over one shoulder and walk behind her past a long hallway. The house seems smaller from the outside. Actually it is quite long. My room is at the end of the hall to the right.

“So change your clothes into something more comfortable and come to the kitchen. We need to get to know each other because I have a feeling I’ll be seeing you a lot from now on.” she said.

“Okay.” I close the door of ‘my’ room and drop my bags onto a pile near the door. Tired from the trip, I plop on the bed, drag my duffel bag to the floor next to my feet and dig through to find my black shorts and white t-shirt with a picture of a bitten red apple on the front.

I look open the side pockets, looking for my hair band. I tie my hair in a high ponytail and check that I am presentable in the small mirror behind the door. I sigh and open the door.

I come face to face with Changmin who I have to gladly say look equally as shocked as I am.

“Your mom is really nice.” I say.

“Well, she is.” Obvious pride and love in his voice.

We walk down the hall, back into the main room.

"And Yuna told me you have a lot of people in your family. Looking at these pictures, she was right.” I stand in front of the wooden shelf, lifting a metal-framed picture of a little boy in a pool with one of those swimming tubes around his stomach. He looked really happy.

“Wasn’t he adorable?” says umma as she passed by me.

“How old were you?” I ask Changmin.

“This?” he takes the frame from my hand, stares at it, then gives it back to me. “Hmm.. like 6?”

“Aww… You were so cute.”

“Still am.” He grins. I smack him on the back.

“Kids! Come and eat.” Umma waves her arms to invite us to the small square table on the side of the window in the kitchen. The table has a light blue table cloth and a white vase with a single stem of yellow sunflower in it to contrast. I grab one of the bread on the plate and take a bite. The bread was still warm and the red bean paste inside sweeten the whole thing.  “Oh my goodness this is really good.”

“Thank you.” Smiles umma. “Changmin-ah, I need to go in about 10 minutes. I’ll tell you what to do so pay attention.”

Changmin just nods as he chows his second bread. Hm.. I guess he’s used to having a teacher as a mother.

“Grandma needs to take one pill from the blue bag in the morning and another from the pink bag after dinner. The instructions are all there if you forget. And she can’t eat anything too sweet, sour, spicy, salty, or bitter food because her digestive system is still not well. So when you cook, separate a bowl for her when the food is ready then you can add the seasonings to fit your taste bud. Oh. And because she needs to rest until she gets fully better you will need to do the housework and such for her. I think that should be it.. call me if you have any questions or need urgent help.”

“She has to take her pills, can’t eat food that tastes good, and has to rest. Got it.” He recaps.

“Seohyun, if you could just keep an eye on her and make sure she’s not breaking her back or anything that would be perfect. Leave all the work for Changmin.” She rubs my shoulders before checking her wrist watch.

“Gee… thanks umma.”

“No problem, umma.” I say.

“Oh. I have to catch the train now. I called the taxi already so don’t worry. Oh look. There it is. Okay. I’m going to go now. Remember to call, okay?” umma hustles, running around for her bag and putting on her shoe at super lighting speed. She pauses to kiss grandma on the cheek and mutter ‘I love you’ before leaving. Changmin and I walk out to the pathway to wave her goodbye.

“Aside from watching over your grandma, I can do things like wash dishes and clean. Then you can do the grind work. If you want.” I look up.

“If that’s okay with you, sure.”

“Okay then. Let’s get working!”

“Workaholic,” he mumbles.

“Game maniac.”

“Hey. Gaming happens to be very educational.”

“Sure. Whatever, Einstein.” I start to walk back to the door to go wash the dishes when Changmin runs ahead of me to pause right by the door frame and gives me a ‘merong~’ before dashing inside.

“Kids these days.. ” I say obnoxiously loud so he could hear me.

There aren’t that many dishes to do, just some plates, a knife, and the cutting board. Soon enough, the dishes are all stacked on the plastic white thing that you use to put your wet dishes to let them dry. I take the blue and white squared kitchen towel to wipe the edges of the sink to make sure no water would drip down to the floor and make it slippery.

When all that is done, I go back to ‘my’ room and lie down on my back on the bed, just staring into the holey ceiling. Bored, I started to count the number of the larger holes before slowly drifting into sleep.

The firm knock on the door wakes me up from my supposed to be ‘light’ nap. “Yeah? Come in.” I say aloud. Reaching for my cell phone on the little bedside table I squint when the lights are turned on.

“It’s 7:30. You’ve been asleep for about 3 hours.. I didn’t know whether or not to wake you up or not. And now I’m going to go… I don’t know… walk around or something.”

“Oh. Okay. I’ll come with you.” I start to shuffle my feet to find my slippers and slowly get up.

“But someone needs to stay with grandma.” He points out.

“It’s okay, you can go. I’m not going anywhere. Actually, I think I’m going to bed. The medicine that I had just now is making me tired.” Says grandma from the hallway. I didn’t know she was there.

“Okay. You want to come?” Changmin turns back to me.

“Yeah. Just give me a minute.” I get up stretch. I notice Changmin is still in the room. I give him an ‘uhh-aren’t-you-supposed-to-go-out’ look. He blinks a couple of times before his gasps in understanding. He mumbles a sorry and shuffles out of the room.

“I’ll wait for you near the door.” He yells.

“Mkay.” I reply. 

I rub my eyes a couple of times. Yes I know you’re not supposed to do it, but I do it anyway.  Then I comb with my fingers through my hair to fix my dishevelled ponytail.

Still stiff from the sleep I stretch my arms up and around, bending my neck side to side to hear cracks of air bubbles in reply.

I walk out of the room to the front foyer, slip on my orange flip flops and go to where Changmin is waiting.

“Sorry.” I say.

“For what?” he asks as we start to walk.

“For making you wait.”

“Nah. Don’t worry about it.”

Sitting in the midst of a suburban field
Echoes of the highway laced with the racing winds
The blue sky above
With shy sunlight, peeking amidst the floating white puffs
Butterflies, dancing from one sprouting dandelion to another
Accompanied by murmurs and muted sounds of glee
It is spring
A fresh feeling, 
Signalling a new beginning

Super short drabble, 164 words. I don't even know why I posted this up. Just felt like it :D

 “I hate you.”

The hard wall stays there, unmoved at all despite the fact that I am using all my strength to hit it. Tears keep running down my face, unable to stop. All that I’ve been holding in just comes out, limitless.

“Do you know how long I’ve been trying to forget? How much pain I’ve had to endure? And the countless sleepless nights I’ve spent blocking my mind from wondering back to you?” I yell at him. It’s not like anybody is going to hear.

“Jihyun.. I…,” he starts.

“You know what? Forget it, I don’t want your explanations and I don’t care. Just get out of my face. Or I’ll really kill you with my own hands.” I angrily wipe the tears with the back of my hand and turned around. There is barely any light in the alleyway where I cornered him. Heels clicking on the wet stone-paved ground I walk into the light, tightening the lock of my heart.

I don't know why I keep writing :P Might as well finish thiss~
though I do have a plot in my head and just need to transfer it into words. Enjoy :]

“Well, that was your last activity for the day and you get one week of vacation.” Says the manager-hyung on their way back to the dorm.

“WHAT?!” the five gorgeous guys unanimously exclaims.

“Vacation?” repeats Yoochun.

“For a week?” adds Jaejoong.

“No photoshoots.” Says Yunho, still staring at the manager.

“No recording.” Changmin turns to Junsu who is sitting on his left.

“No schedules..” Junsu shakes his head in disbelief.

“Yes. So you guys can think of wherever you want to go and tell me so I can get things set up for tomorrow. Or whenever you’re leaving if you’re going anywhere.”

“Okay..” the five leans back against their seats, backs aching from the sudden uprightness from surprise. No schedule for a day before and now a week vacation? No one expected it.

----------

“Mom, dad, who came?” I ask. I just arrived back from school and there are suitcases on the front foyer near the door.

“No one. We’re going to Hawaii.” She said.

“What? Since when? And I have school..”

“I won a lottery from the supermarket. It was their 50th anniversary and they had 2 tickets to Hawaii for a week and I won!” mom claps her hand in excitement, still scurrying around the house, finding things to pack.

“Wait, you said two tickets.. so you’re abandoning me?”

“Aww, honey. Don’t be like that. I’ll bring back some souvenirs for you.” She smiles. How comforting.

“So when are you guys leaving?” I ask, putting my bag down.

“The plane is taking off in about 4 hours so we’re leaving the house in about half an hour.” She checks her watch.

“Oh. Have fun then.” I reply, dragging myself to my room, seeing my dad search for his passport through the bedroom door.

“I tried calling your aunt to stay over but she’s not picking up. But I’m sure you’ll be safe here. I’m going to tell the neighbour next door to just watch over, make sure you’re okay.” I hear her say.

I pick up the phone to call Yuna.

“Hello?”

“Hi. It’s Seohyun.”

“Oh hey. What’s up?”

“My parents have decided to leave me for Hawaii for a week.” I complain.

“So you were the winner! My mom wanted that prize.”

“Not the point. Now I’m all by myself. Is there any way that you can come over or something, I don’t know.. for the entire week?”

“I can’t. My dad is working night shifts and my mom just got a job today. I have to be home. Though I can take my siblings over afterschool and stuff.”

“Okay. Thanks.”

“See you tomorrow.”

“Bye.”

I hang up the phone and lie on my bed, looking up at the ceiling. If only there is something for me to do. There’s not much at school right now and most people aren’t even coming for the next few days. I have nothing better to do at home and all they make you do at school is help clean up the rooms and do miscellaneous jobs the teachers are too lazy to do.

----------

“Hyung, I’m going back to Gwangju for my grandpa’s birthday.” Yunho says.

“I’m going to Sydney, Australia.” Adds Junsu.

“Me and Yoochun are going to Canada.” Tells Jaejoong to the manager who is writing all this down.

“I’m going to visit my grandma in Busan. My mom’s telling me to help because she just got out of the hospital.” Last but not least, Changmin picks a destination.

“Okay. So I’ll prepare everything by tonight. Enjoy but remember DO NOT TALK TO REPORTERS ABOUT ANYTHING. They can quote you and create a scandal. And make sure nobody recognizes you guys. Just keep a low profile.” Manager-hyung warns.

“Sure thing.” Chimes the five.

“Yunho-yah, what time is it?” Jaejoong asks.

“6 pm. Why?” replies the younger man.

“I’m going to call Yuna to tell her about our vacation.”

“Yuna? The girl we met at the noraebang? Since when are you so close to her?” asks Yoochun, looking at Jaejoong.

“Well, we found out we have so many similarities while you guys were singing so… yeah. We connect well.”

Jaejoong walks toward the ceiling high window facing the west. The glowing sunset that envelopes the city of Seoul could be clearly seen. And looking at that horizon line, the line at the very end with a purple streak, he takes out his phone and calls Yuna.

“Hello?” answers what seems to be a three year old.

“Hello. Is Yuna there?” Jaejoong asks.

“Hold on a moment please.” A slight rustling of static then a muffled yell “Noona, someone is calling you!”

“Who is it?” a reply.

“A man!”

“I’ll be right there! Hello?”

“Hi. It’s me, Jaejoong.”

“Hi Jaejoong oppa. How are you?”

“Good. No, great, actually. It turns out we’re getting this week of vacation starting tomorrow. I’m going to Canada with Chunnie, Su’s going to Australia, Yunnie is going back to Gwangju and Minnie is going to Busan.”

“Wah! Sounds like fun. Actually starting tomorrow I’m not really going to school either because I have to babysit my siblings. Seohyun got ditched by her parents but I can’t stay with her.”

“Oh. Hey, why doesn’t she just come with one of us? We’d be happy to have her.”

“Well, I guess I can ask. But you and Yoochun-oppa are going to America while Junsu-oppa is going to Australia. There’s no way she’s going to agree to going that far. And Yunho-oppa is going to his home so it might be awkward…” Yuna trails off.

“So that leaves one person. It’s decided then. Seohyun is going with Changmin. Talk to you later Yuna.”

“Bye oppa.” Click.

Jaejoong has his mischievous grin all over his face as he announces to the living room with Junsu and Changmin playing games, Yoochun reading, and Yunho on the computer. “Changmin, Seohyun is going with you to take care of your grandma.”

“WHAT?!” and all four pairs of shocked eyes are on him, with one the most surprised of all.

----------

“Changmin, Seohyun is going with you to take care of your grandma.”

“WHAT?!”

“Who said?” The bewildered maknae asks.

“I did.” Jaejoong raises his hand in defeat and starts to back away.

“Hyung… you… YAH! COME BACK!” Min stands up, game forgotten, and chases Jae around their living room before Jae moves on to the kitchen, and off to the hall with bedrooms. Jaejoong shuts himself in his room and Changmin is banging on the rather thin wood.

“The soulfighters are at it again.” Yoochun laughs and turns his attention back to his book.

“Sigh. Why does he do these things?” Yunho walks up to where Changmin is and tries to calm him down and talk some sense into the man before he breaks the door. “He’s going to come out eventually.” He says, tapping Changmin on the shoulder who agrees and comes back to continue his game.

“No, I’m not!” Jaejoong exclaims from inside.

“Just you wait, Jaejoong. When you come out you’re going to..” Changmin smacks his game controller, beating Junsu as he takes out his aggravation on the 2-dimentional characters inside the TV.

“Yah! Changmin, cut me some slack!” Junsu pleads, still pressing his buttons animatedly, trying to balance the fight.

-----------

“You did WHAT?” I exclaim at the cordless phone I have in my left hand, my right holding a silver spoon that is supposed to be for eating, now as a tool to dent the wooden table.

“You’re going with Changmin for next week.” Yuna repeats.

“Why?!”

“Because your parents abandoned you for Hawaii leaving you all alone, there’s nothing to do at school for the next few days, and because Jaejoong offered.”

“AKH! Stupid biases.”

“Joongie-oppa isn’t stupid. But seriously. I think he’s supposed to leave like.. tomorrow morning or something so hurry and pack up. They’ll pick you up and then you’ll go by train. Jaejoong said he’ll give you the details so check your email tonight.”

“There is no way for me to get out of this, is there?” I ask, the last measure of wishing has all come down to this.

“Nope.” She answers easily. My hope is destroyed and all joy fades from my sight.

“You’re an evil child.” I tell her.

“Thanks. Now get packing. Have fun.” She giggles before hanging up.

Great. Can’t wait. I sigh and walk over to my room. I dig the bottom of my closet for my duffel bag and start packing.

----------

Honk!

“Coming!” I yell, even though I know they can’t hear me. I lock my bedroom and make sure the stove and oven aren’t on. After double checking everything, I pick up my duffel bag and head out the front door. The white Honda Odyssey is parallel parked on the side and I before I even make it within 2 metres of the vehicle the door open and out comes Junsu. He takes my luggage and carries it inside.

“Good morning, Seohyun.” Greets Yunho.

“Good morning to you, too, Yunho-ssi.” I reply.

“You can call us oppas, you know.” Junsu tells me as the van starts moving.

“Good morning Junsu oppa. Good morning Changmin oppa.” I hesitate on the second name.

“Hey.” Changmin replies from the back seat.

“Where is Jaejoong oppa and Yoochun oppa?” I ask, curious.

“Oh, they left already. They left on an early plane. Now we’re going to drop Junsu off and then we’d go to the train station together.” Yunho answers.

“Hm.. okay.”

We arrive at the Incheon Airport to drop of Junsu-oppa. There aren’t that many fans around but of course there are some.

“Bye Yunho hyung. Changmin, take care of Seohyun, okay? Bye bye Seohyun.” He waves at me. I’m not kidding you, his smile is like a ray of sunshine that would own the baby sun in teletubies any day.

After that we are dropped off at Seoul Station. While Yunho takes care of the tickets Changmin and I go into a convenience store in the station. Yuna told me once that he eats a lot. I wouldn’t have known because he is so skinny and tall.

“Get some snacks, too. The train ride is going to take a while.” He suggests while comparing between two boxes of cookies. Not knowing which one to pick, he shrugs and puts both boxes in the plastic yellow basket.

I try to hold back my smile. His soul is so pure and innocent and he might be 18, but he still acts like a 10 year old.

That being said, I look for some food myself. I found blueberry sponge cake and seaweed flavoured snacks. I go over to the beverage freezer and take one bottle of green tea. Satisfied, I walk to the cashier, picking up a pack of strawberry kiwi flavoured gum for something to do, and pay for my stuff. Changmin, however, is still walking through the aisles, making sure he didn’t miss anything. He nods to himself, I think that means he’s done, and walk up to the strangely pink employee behind the counter. Oh. Right. I almost forgot Changmin is an idol.

I could see the hand of the cashier shaking and the way she avoids eye contact with Changmin. Thinking I shouldn’t wait here, I walk out of the store just so it’s not suspicious that I’m with him. I hear ‘thank you’s and out walks Changmin.

“There you are. I think hyung should be done. Let’s go. Wait. Give me that.” He points to my grey plaid bag that is hanging on my right shoulder.

“No, it’s okay. It’s not that heavy anyway. Besides, I think you have enough to carry.” I smile, pointing back to his black backpack and two plastic bags of convenience store food.

“Uh… okay. But if you’re tired, tell me. Okay.”

“It’s just until we board the train-” I start. His expression makes me want to just listen to what he’s saying and that he will not take no for an answer. “Fine. I’ll tell you.”

“Good.” He grins. Who knew he has this side to him. He takes out a chocolate flavoured ice cream cone and offers it to me.

“No thanks.” I lift my hand in a gesture of refusal.

“More for me,” he says, opening the paper wrapping, throwing it to the silver cylindrical garbage bin next to the pillar that Yunho is standing by.

“Hyung, your ice cream is here somewhere.” Changmin hands Yunho one of the bags from the store and stuffs the other one with one hand into his already bulky backpack.

“Our train is going to leave in about 15 minutes so we should get going.” Yunho says after finding his mocha flavoured ice cream and giving the bag back to Changmin.

We go up the escalator then down the stairs to the platforms of trains. Since Gwangju and Busan are in the same direction, all three of us are taking the same train. But Yunho is going to get off before me and Changmin.

“Here’s your ticket.” Yunho hands the tickets. After finding our seats, I put my bag on the overhead rack and sit on he window seat. Changmin and Yunho both have the aisle seat to accommodate their long legs.

The train lurches ahead. I’m excited because the last time I’ve been on a train was when I was young.

“Changmin-uh.. oppa,” I hesitate. “What are we going to do in Busan? All I know is that you have to take care of your grandmother.” I ask.

“Well, I think we’re supposed to do the basic chores and stuff. She can’t do it cuz her spine has to stay straight. And probably some garden work, too. Things like that, I guess…” He trails off, popping an onion ring snack into his mouth.

“I see..” I turn my head to the window on my left. Seoul city is fading away. The tall straight-cut buildings are being replaced by shorter more old-fashioned ones. The hints of green from nature transforms into a blanket of squared rice plants.

“Waa… it’s so pretty!” I take out my phone and press on the camera function to take pictures.

“If you think this is pretty, wait until you get to Busan.” I can barely hear Yunho says, his voice muted by the rattling of the train wheels hitting the metal tracks.

“Really?! I want to see it!”

“Well, you will. Later.” Changmin says.

----------

We’ve been on the train for about 2 hours, Yunho got off around 15 minutes ago and there’s still about 2 hours left of the ride. My eyelids are getting heavy. It’s only 11 o clock but the lack of sleep from last night is taking its toll on me. I yawn. I turn my head to find Changmin reading a book called ‘ The Book of Awesome’. He seems very absorbed in it so I can’t just have a conversation with him. Losing the battle against drowsiness I lean my head on the window and fall asleep.

----------

Clunk. Clunk.

What is that noise? I look up from my book and find the source of the clunking sounds. Seohyun is sleeping next to me and her head is hitting the glass window. It’s amazing how she doesn’t wake up. Thinking that there is nothing I can do, I go back to reading and cross my right leg over my left.

Thump.

Something is weighing down my shoulder. I look over and my heart stops beating.

 So I've written sorta a continuation of the supposedly unfinished fanfic. It's not long.. this uh.. part. So enjoy? 


“So, who’s older? You or Seohyun?” asks Jaejoong as Junsu and Yoochun duets beautifully with all their hearts.

“Seohyun is younger than me by 2 months. Her birthday is on June 25th.” Replies Yuna while sipping on her coke.

“I see…” Jaejoong stares at the TV screen, his mind cooking up a plan to get his maknae closer to this Seohyun.

“Hey, why don’t we get the two maknaes to duet together?” asks Jaejoong to his members plus two new friends.

“What? Wait a min–,” stutters Changmin.

Yoochun, who understands what Jaejoong is scheming, agrees immediately. “Yeah. That’s a great idea.” He smiles slyly.

“So what song are you guys going to sing?” The excited Junsu takes the song list book and starts to flip through the laminated pages.

“Uh… but I don’t know what songs he knows that I know…” says Seohyun, looking at her friend who simply shrugs back.

“Hm.. lesse… Ah.. What about ‘Falling Slowly’? I know you know it Hyun. Changmin-ssi, do you know the song?” suggest Yuna.

“Yes he does! Changmin, you’re up. Junsu, choose Falling Slowly.” Yunho passes the microphone to Changmin as he smiles and pats the maknae’s shoulder for encouragement.

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along


----------

Jaejoong sees Changmin’s occasional glances at Seohyun. And also how he would stop singing and stare at her. She didn’t realize it, of course, but sooner or later she will. Hopefully.

----------

“Waaaa– that was so much fun.” Exclaims Junsu, stretching his arms up.

“Teehee…” Yoochun pokes at the little skin on Junsu’s stomach where his shirt rides up.

“You guys are so… CUTE!” squeals Yuna, friendly with the boys already.

“Hyungs… I’m hungry.” Pouts Changmin as he puts his hands on his stomach.

“No kidding. I could hear your stomach through the loud music, Changmin-ssi,” nudges Seohyun.

“Hey! I can’t control it. And I could hear yours too. Haha..” Changmin teases back.

“Yeph. Nothing like karaoke to bring people together. Jaejoong, then what should we eat? I feel like we’ve done nothing but eat all day today.” asks Yunho.

“Uh… I’m too lazy to cook so eat out again?”

“Anything to make the monster stop growling.” Yoochun points a thumb to Min’s stomach.

“I’m sorry stomach, he didn’t mean that.”

“Wow, Changmin-ssi.. I didn’t know you talk to your stomach.” Giggles Seohyun.

“I know a good place near here. Let’s go!” leads Yuna. “By the way.. is it too early to ask you guys for your numbers?”

“Nah. I was just going to ask you for yours. But I didn’t want to scare you and all..” replied Jaejoong.

“Oh. Great. Here. Type in yours.” Yuna extends her phone to Jaejoong who did the same thing to her.

“Seohyun-ssi, do you mind putting yours in too?” asks Jaejoong.

“Sure. Here’s my phone.”

“Hey.. Seohyun-ssi, can I put my number in too?” asks Junsu.

“Yeah. Me too.” Adds Yunho.

“Me three.” As Yoochun takes out his phone.
“Aish.. Making me feel awkward. Here.” Changmin asks as well.

----------

“So, Minnie… I saw you stare at Seohyun while you were singing.” Teases Jaejoong in their shared room after everyone’s gone to bed.

“What? What are you talking about?” he asks, pretending to not know what his hyung is talking about.

“Come on, you would usually close your eyes when singing soft duets. And your hand.. they weren’t doing their usual up and down movement today. What were you thinking about?”

“Uh…”

“Aw… we’ve been together for years. I know there’s something. And don’t even bother lying cuz I’d know.”

“Fine. I thought she was pretty and her voice was nice and I stopped singing so I can hear it.” Rushes the embarrassed Changmin, burying his head into a pillow as soon as he finishes.

Aish. Our cute maknae is growing up. “Aww… you’re so cute when you’re lost. You go around with a tough manly image when you’re actually still young and innocent. Well, not THAT innocent but you get what I mean. My advice is go for it. You’d never know, Min. You can grow from the experience. Love is a sweet thing.”

“Ugh. You’re getting all sappy. Go talk to Yoochun and you guys can be greasy together. But thanks for the advice.”

“No prob. And guys have their cheesy moments. You’ll have yours too.” Soon you’ll be acting like a different person and I hope it’s for the better.

Jaejoong pats Changmin’s legs and goes to lie down on his own bed, sleep taking over almost immediately.
----------

“So today you’re supposed to go and shoot for a show in a high school from 8 to about 2 in the afternoon. Then after that the next schedule is at 5 o’clock in that photo studio for Elle.” Explains the manager-hyung.

“Okay. So now we’re headed for the school, right? Is it a public school?” asks Yoochun.

“I think so. I just hope it’s not another all girls school. Last time was a disaster.”

“Think of it as tons of love for us.” Says Junsu.

“Yeah. You weren’t the one who had to call 20 people without notice just to get you out of the building.” Replies their manager, shuddering at the memory.

“Ah. Is this it?” Changmin points to a grey building on their left.

“West Seoul High? Yeph. This is the place. I’ll come and pick you guys up later. Have fun and try to not make anyone faint. Please.”

“That is beyond our control, hyung.” Adds Jaejoong while looking at himself from the side view mirror.

----------

“Did you study for your english test?” greets Seohyun as she sits down beside her slumping friend.

“Yeah. I studied so late I have triple eyebags. Ugh.” Replies Yuna.

“Well, I’m sure you’re going to do just fin–“

“OH MY GOSH. IT’s DONG BANG SHIN KI OPPAS!!!!”

“What?!” Yuna stands up and look over to the window. “OH MY GOSH IT IS THEM. KYYAAAAAA!!!!!”

A herd of girls can be heard stomping their way through the doors of the classroom down the stairs into their field, where the boys are given their instructions on what to do by the PD.

“That’s so amazing. One second they were all here then blink and they’re gone.”

“Oh. Good morning Minho.” Smiles Seohyun, looking up to a tall black haired guy with framed glasses who has been in her class since grade 7.

“How come you’re not running there?”

“Should I be?”

“Up to you. I think all the girls and even some guys left.”

“Well, I’m not a crazy fan so to get squished by people for them, no thanks. Besides, I can see them from the window anyway.”

“Ah. The advantages of having a window seat.”

“Yeph. So what are you up to lately? You’ve been sorta busy.”

“Yeah. My mom is back in Gwang-ju to take care of my grandma so I have to help around in the store.”
“I see. That’s really nice of you.”

“I am the oldest so of course I have to help. How about you? How’s everything?”

“I went to Myeong-dong to go shopping with Yuna yesterday. And we went karaoke-ing too. It was pretty fun. I haven’t gone out in a really long time.

“Same. Hey, we should go somewhere on Friday. You, me, Yuna, and whoever you want to invite.”

“This Friday.. is that a PA day?” (note: PA days are Professional Activity days where the teachers have meetings so the students don’t go to school on that day)

“Yeah. You have anything to do?”

“I don’t think so. And sure we should totally go. Are you telling Yuna or am I?”

“You can tell her cuz you sit next to her while I’m all the way in the other class at the end of the hallway.”

“Haha.. okay.”

----------

“Okay. So you guys understand what you need to do?” asks the PD, making sure the boys are clear with their jobs.

“Yes, PD-nim.”

“Okay so we’ll start in about half an hour. Go get ready and meet me here again.”

“Uh.. Kim PD ssi, where is the washroom?” asks Changmin.

PD Kim looks up from his scripts. “Uh.. it’s somewhere inside. The one downstairs is broken so you have to go upstairs. Just go up on the stairs to the left of the entrance door and ask someone inside. I’m sure they’ll tell you where to go.”

“Thank you.”

The crowding students are already inside because class has started. Changmin does as he is told. He goes up the stairs and turned side to side, looking for maybe a sign that says washroom. No such luck. He continues down the hall and sees a figure, back turned to him, of a girl taking something out of her locker. Lost as to where to go, he walks up to the girl and clears his dry throat.

“Ehm.. excuse me, where is the.. Seohyun-ssi?”

The girl turns to him and shock is also written on her face. She is surprised that she meets Changmin inside the halls as she goes to get her dictionary. However, not quite as bewildered as Changmin. He just stands there, frozen until his mind starts to work again.

“Oh. So you go to this school?” asks Changmin.

“Yeph. You have a recording, right?”

“How did you know?”

“Uh.. first of all, everyone rushed out when they saw you guys and two, I could see you from the window next to where I’m sitting.”

“Oh.”

“By the way, Changmin-ssi, do you need anything? Why are you wandering here in the halls? With no hall pass?” jokes Seohyun.

“Haha, very funny. And I’m here because PD-nim told me to go to the upstairs washroom but I can’t find it.”

“Oh. So you were looking for a washroom? Hm.. See that green bulletin board? Just walk up to there and the male washroom is right across from it.”

“Thanks so much.” He smiles, not quite moving from his spot.

“Uh.. do you need anything else?”

“What? Oh. No, thank you. Sorry. See you sometime. Maybe.” Blushing, Changmin speed walks to where Seohyun directed him to.

Aww, he looks like a lost puppy. “Bye.” She says into the now empty hall. Oh, right. I need to get back to class.

 This fanfic is about DBSK.. I didn't really come up with a title seeing how the story didn't develop much. But I've decided to post it up. After reading it the second time I actually thought I did a pretty good job (because my english grades are... :P). There is just no exciting part of the story. Just introduction the entire way. And it's long.. I don't know why anyone would want to read this but anyway.. here goes. 

----->>

"Jae, hurry. There are mirrors there anyway. Our manager is starting to get mad."

"Wait, my hair is still messy."

"You have, like, one strand off. Stylist noona can fix it. We're almost late and the traffic isn't good either."

"Fine."

It is 7:00 in the morning and the boys have a photoshoot with Elle Girl Korea. Yunho was first to get ready but is last to exit the apartment and enter the van because he was waiting for his hyung by 11 days.

"Manager hyung, what are we going to do after the shoot?" asks Yoochun.

"You guys have to go as guests on Strong Heart."

"What's for lunch?" asks the forever hungry maknae.

"We just ate breakfast! but yeah, what are we eating for lunch?" adds Junsu.

"We'll grab something on the way from the magazine photo shoot to the studio." replies the manager.

--------------------

Female character's PoV

"Could I get one glass of orange juice? Oh, and some napkins too."

"Sure thing."

I go to the kitchen and poured a pulp-free orange juice into a clear glass and bring it to the customer. Sigh. She's so demanding.

I've been working for about 2 months now, working part time so I could save up for university and not burden my parents too much. The job pays well but nothing exciting ever really happens so it gets boring on some days.

-------------------------

“Okay. Thank you so much for answering the questions from your fans. I hope you guys continue to become successful throughout Asia. Fighting!”

“Thank you for having us.” Smiles the charismatic leader.

In the van

“Now can we eat?” asks Changmin to no one in particular

“Hey, let’s go to that restaurant we went with Ho Dong hyung last time,” replies Jaejoong.

“Oh! That place was good. And it wasn’t too crowded either. Let’s go!” answers the excited Junsu.

-------------------------

FC PoV

The bell on the door rang and five fashionably dressed guys walked in. There’s a pretty blonde, black-haired beauty, a cute angelic-faced one, a really tall one, and the one that seems to be leading everyone. They were dressed in similar coloured outfits but each is unique in their own way. Their faces look familiar. I just can’t remember where. Are they famous?

“Hi. Table for 5.” says the pretty looking male.

“Right this way.” I show them their seats. “And what would you like to have today?”

“One bulgogi with 2 bowls of rice, please!” answers the tallest one.

“I want erm… “ hesitates the one with the angel face.

“Can I please get one bibimbap? Thank you.” Smiles he black-haired man.

“I want a bowl of gamjatang, please and thank you.” Orders the blonde.

“Aakkh! I don’t know what to order! Ah! I want a Samgyetang!” the angel finally decides.

“And as for me, galbi thank you.” Said the handsome man as he closes his menu book and took the others’ to pass back to me.

“That’ll take about 5-10 minutes. Anything to drink?”

“water” chimes all five of them.

“Okay… water it is.” I replied, suppressing laughter.

--------------------
“Waaahh! It’s here! I’m starving.”

I come with their food and asks if they need anything else, though I don’t think they heard me. Oh well. So I go back to my place behind the cash register by across the door, waiting for the next customers or if anyone needs my help. Then I realize that the group of girls that came in not too long ago are all whispering, pointing at the direction of the five boys. Well, men. So I ask my friend, Yuna, who got me this job in the first place.

“Hey, who are they? Are they famous? I felt like I’ve seen them before..”

“ARE YOU CRAZY? YOU DON’T KNOW WHO THEY ARE? Omo..omo… my head. I can’t believe this, Seohyun. And how old are you again? Last time I checked all 17 year olds around here knows who THEY are” as she points to the group in the back.

“Well, sorry for not knowing. No. seriously. Wait…. Yeph. No clue who they are.”

“Remember that song. The one that’s really upbeat that I made you listen to three days ago? The one with the guy speaking sort-of English at the beginning?”

“Yeah. I think it was… ‘O’, right?”

“Well, that’s them. The singers. Korea’s, no, Asia’s number 1 group, Dong Bang Shin Ki. I can’t believe it. They go here. OMG. And while I’m on the shift. Thank you God! I will do good deed from this point on.”

“Oooohh… so THAT’s why they look familiar. I’ve seen their posters up on your room. Lol. Such a fangirl. But you’re right, they are good looking.”

“WAH!” the shriek that has everyone’s heads turned to that specific direction.

“Sigh. Again, hyung?!” commented the tallest man.

“Well, not my fault my elbow is sharp!” exclaimed the dolphin-like voice.

“Why thank you for noticing. Now go. My Jaejoong needs something” she points as the blonde – Jaejoong? – stood up looked around.

“Ah. Can I get some napkins? Junsu spilled his water. Thanks.” I nodded and grabbed some from the pile on the counter.

“Here you go.”

“Thanks. And could we get the bill, too.”

“Sure. Here.”

When my shift is over, I cleaned up the table, went to change to my normal clothes, said goodbye to everyone and went home. The distance from my house to the restaurant isn’t too far so I walk to stay economical. Besides, it’s great exercise.

--------------------

“That’s it for today. Thank you for watching Strong Heart DBSK Special. We’ll see you next week! I’m Kang Ho Dong.”

“I’m Lee Seung Gi. On behalf of the crews here we wish you a pleasant week.”

“CUT! That’s a wrap. Editors, I want this done by tomorrow at noon. The rest of you can go home.’

“Yunho-ssi. Thank you for coming. Want to go for a drink later?”

“Ah. No. thank you for having us Ho Dong hyung. But I think we should just go home.” Replies the concerned leader as he side glances at his members yawning.

“That’s okay. Call me later okay guys.”

“Yes, hyung.”

“Kamsamida” say the five to the staffs and crews they see as they bow their way to their dressing room.

--------------------

In the van

“Hey, don’t you guys think the girl at the restaurant today was pretty?” Changmin randomly bursts in the midst of the silence. Well, as quiet as it can be with Yoochun snoring in the back.

“WOW. Here you fooled all the fans thinking you’re innocent. Kekekeke… I’m proud of you min-ah.” Says Jaejoong.

“What? I am a growing man at the end of my puberty stage. Is it not normal? And don’t lie because I’ve seen you look at girls from the van window hyung.”

“That’s true. I’ve seen you check them out too, hyung.” Junsu confirms.

“Anyway.. we were talking, well… you were talking about that girl from the store. I guess she’s cute. If you like the tall tomboy-ish type which we all here know you absolutely can’t resist regardless of what you say in TV shows when they ask you.” Jaejoong returns the conversation away from himself.

“And she didn’t scream or stutter when she saw us. Not like her friend or those girls at the front table. But she didn’t seem like an anti either because someone should have a stomach ache by now if she was.”

“You know, of all the years that we’ve been together, I’ve never heard you talk about girls in such detail Minnie. I think you’ve got yourself a crush.” Studies Jaejoong.

“Make that his first crush.” Smiles Junsu.

“She is not my first crush. I’ve had a couple at school.” Fights Changmin.

“Whatever. Hey, Yoochun, wake up. We’re home.” Junsu shakes the sleeping beauty.

“Ungh. Carry me.” Said Yoochun cutely.

“You’re so mean. You know I can’t resist your sleepy smiles. Hold on. Minnie, open the door.” Grunts the strong Junsu. “This is sad. Here I dream about lifting my love like this but I am stuck with lifting you instead. But seriously. Eat more. You’re too skinny.”

“Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Ow!”

“Sorry. Not my fault you rolled your head.”

“Gakh. If this keeps happening I’m going to lose so many brain cells I can’t compose anymore. Let me down.”

“Eu kyang kyang. So worrisome.”

--------------------

“I can’t believe we have no schedule today. That is the rarest thing ever. Maybe our manager was drunk or something that he forgot to write it down. Oh well, not that I’m complaining.” Says Changmin to the bright morning sun.

“Go wash up and eat. Breakfast is on the table.” Orders Mommy Jae to the rest of the family.

“Let’s go to Myeong-dong today. It’s a weekday so everyone either has school or work. We can go from like 10 o’clock to lunchtime then we can go back.” Suggests Junsu.

“Not a bad idea. Su. I need some new clothes anyway.” Replies fashionishta Yoochun.

“Yeah right. You got a closet full of clothes. PLUS half of mine. And yet you need more?!” comments Changmin.

“The fashion world is always changing, young one. Yosh! Let’s go. I need to get myself a jacket, too. Can we go… hyung?” blinks the blonde to the leader multiple times.

“Fine. I’ll get my car.” Sighs the charismatic man.

“YAY! Min-ah, go change! Hurry!” excited Junsu jumps up and down and cartwheels to his shared room with Changmin.

“I thought I was the maknae…” as Changmin shakes his head.

--------------------

“I’m going to Myeong-dong with Yuna today. The grade 11s get to have a day off because we just finished our exams. Be back by dinner time” scribbles Seohyun on a piece of post-its and sticks it on the table for her mom to see as she gets home.

Ring ring….. “Hello. Yeah. I’m on my way to your house. No I’m not getting dressed up. It’s myeong-dong we’re talking about, not the prince’s birthday party. See ya in five minutes.” Seohyun shuts the phone.

“Long jeans, T-shirt, and converse. So Seohyun. I’m getting dressed up because I have a feeling that today is going to be special. I don’t know what but my gut is telling me I should get ready. I’ve got paper, marker, and my camera.” Chats Yuna as she sees Seohyun walk up her front door.

“I think you forgot your brain in the midst of it all. You do realize that your ‘feelings’ have no fruit so far, right?”

“Well, today’s is different.”

“That’s what you said last time…” mumbles Seohyun.

“You got your subway tickets?”

“Would’ve turned around if I hadn’t.”

“Such an optimist. Let’s go!”

--------------------

“Hey, Yunho. How do I look?” poses Jae in an oversized grey striped sweater and tight black jeans.

“Hot.” Smirked the sexy man himself.

“I wonder if your blood will circulate properly in those pants.” Snarked the witty maknae.

“Hyung, hyung! Look at this! Isn’t this so adorable?” squealed the oh-so-cute dolphin man as he points to a baby blue wool hat with a pom pom on the top.

“Wear it. I want to see you in it. The weather is getting chillier anyway so might as well get it if it looks good.” Replies Yoochun in the middle of picking his own outfit to try on.

“Anything will look good on me.” Jokes Junsu. Nevertheless, he tries it on and asks his members for their opinion anyway after looking at it himself at the mirror nearby, of course. “Do I look cuter?” and at that moment his two hands move to create a platform for his adorable slanted head.

“Yeah. Yeah. You look cute like always. Hey, why don’t you ask that store clerk noona that’s staring at you at the back?” answers Changmin.

“Oh. She was there all along? Noona, how do I look?” and off to repeat the pose. You could almost hear the scream that female is holding back.

“Y-you look cu-cute Junsu-ssi,” stammers the clerk which heart is beating a hundred times faster than it should. She should be scared of getting a heart attack, but having her uttermost favourite idol smile at her like that is a far better trade even if it’s the last thing she sees.

“YAY! I’m getting this hat.”

After about half an hour of Yoochun and Jaejoong trying on clothes while Changmin and Yunho just looked around without finding anything in particular that they love the five leave the store. Junsu happy that he got his hat, Yoochun quite pleased with what he found, Jaejoong always content during a day of shopping, Yunho calm that his members hasn’t been mobbed yet and Changmin hungry like always.

Meanwhile

“So Seohyun, are you planning to get anything?”

“Hm… we’ll see. I have a bit of money to spend after saving though. I’ll probably buy a shirt or something. What are you getting?”

“Well, thank s for asking. I need to get my boyfriend something. His birthday is coming soon. And I want that skirt we saw in the magazine. Oh, and that cute bag that my cousin got last week. I’m going to go broke today.”

“That’s what you always say, too, spoiled girl. Hahaha. So we’re going to be busy today, I assume.”

“You betcha. Okay. First on my list. The gift. What should I get him..?”

“Well, this is your first time buying him a birthday gift, right? Why not something that he could use to keep himself warm? It is almost winter. I don’t know. Get him like a hat or a scarf or something. Socks are okay, too.”

“Erm.. socks are kind of.. something that I’d buy for my brother. But the idea is not bad. Ah! I know just the place.”

“After you..”

--------------------

“Hey, Jaejoong-hyung. I need something to match my shirt. I’m thinking of a scarf but I don’t know what colour..” asks Yoochun.

“Hm.. how about dark blue, like navy blue or violet. I think it should go nicely with what you bought.”

“Yeah. You’re right. Let’s go to ‘Honey’.”

“Eh? That girly store that sells fuzzy stuff?” asks the dumbfounded Changmin.

“It is not girly, just well organized with a feminine taste.” Replied Yoochun calmly, as if talking to a child.

“Same thing. But can we please go eat after? My stomach is asking me for food.”

“Hahahaha… you mean growling you for food. I could hear it and I’m two metres away! Ah. This way.” Turns Jaejoong to his right with the others following. He has a good sense of directions when it comes to shops.

‘Eh? Isn’t that the girl from the restaurant yesterday. And her friend is here, too. Coincidence.’ Thought Changmin as they enter the ‘fuzzy store’

“Oh My Gosh! Y-you g-guys are… are… are..” squealed Yuna in the direction of Jaejoong, Yoochun, Yunho, Junsu, and last to enter Changmin.

“Ah. Anyonghaseo.” Bows the five polite men.

“Oh My Gosh. Oppas. I’m your fan! Akh! See Seohyun. I knew something was going to happen. Erm.. oppas… do you mind if I take a picture with you? Just one quick picture?” hesitates the flushed Yuna.

“Sure! Does your friend want one, too?” replies Junsu, always excited to thank his fans in every way possible.

“Ah. It’s okay. I’m sure you guys are busy anyway.” Answers Seohyun, cool as a cucumber that has been frozen in the freezer for days.

“Come here, we won’t bite” teases Yoochun as the not-so-shy but medium-heighted girl with brown dyed hair stands in between the men with the order of Yunho, Changmin, Jaejoong, Yuna, Yoochun, and Junsu.

“One, two, say kimchi!” says Seohyun.

“Kimcheeeeeee” everyone are smiling brightly, Yuna’s being the brightest, but not too bright so she could show off the picture without embarrassing herself.

“Thank you so much, oppas. I hope you are successful in all your work” bows Yuna. “Seohyun, let’s go.”

“But I thought-“

“That can wait. I’m so excited I don’t want to embarrass myself. I’m going to die of happiness if I stayed in here.” Whispers the girl who just took a picture with Asia’s number one group.

“Okay… if you say so.” And the two girls disappear behind the door out to get fresh air.

‘So her name is Seohyun’ as Changmin inserts the new-found information into his brain.

Yoochun and Jaejoong continued looking for the perfect scarf. Yunho has decided to look for something for his sister while they’re shopping anyway. Junsu was just out of it and Changmin helps Yunho as they both have younger sisters.

“Yo. Do you know what girls these days want?” asks the hyung.

“I don’t know.. I’m not a girl. Haha.. asks Jaejoong-hyung. He is the one with seven sisters.”

“Yeah.. but he’s busy at the moment. Should I just get her a pair of gloves? These are cute.” As Yunho holds up a pair of pink mittens with the shape of smiling pigs.

“Oh. Yeah. I think they’ll like that. I saw my sister having a pair kind of like that except it was a bear instead. You should get her that. If she doesn’t like it, she can give it to a friend or something. But I’m sure she’ll like it.” Changmin adds after seeing the look on Yunho’s face.

“Yoochunnie is done. You’re going to pay for that hyung?” asks Junsu

“Yeah. You guys can wait outside or decide what you want to eat. I’ll be back in a few.” Yunho walks to the cashier, an ahjumma this time but blushing all the same and went out to meet with the others.

“My turn to pick. Ah! There’s a noodle house across the street. Can we eat there?” suggests Changmin, finally awake and alert for once.

“Sure. It looks pretty good. “ says Jaejoong.

So they walk across the street, and looks in the glass where there are sample bowls and their pricetags.

“And it’s not that expensive either so you can have your multiple bowls, Min.” smiles Junsu.

But Changmin’s already inside the shop, looking for a table when he spotted two faces that he’d seen not long ago.

--------------------

“Your soyu ramen and spicy ramen. And the apple juice is yours, tea for you.”

“Thank you. Wahhh.. looks good.” Says Seohyun.

“Enjoy your meal.”

“Thank you for the meal.” The two girls say at the same time to one another.

As they started to dig in, their chopsticks in the broth and the spoon in their mouth, Seohyun and Yuna heard the bell at the door jingle and turned, like all people even though they probably wouldn’t know who the next customers are. Surprisingly, they know the next customer, or rather the next five customers.

“Omo! This is just fate! It’s so meant to be. Jaejoong-oppa I’m the one you’re looking for!” whispers Yuna to thin air as Seohyun just rolls her eyes at her friend’s reaction, knowing it’s only momentary fangirling that happens about fifteen times a day. It’s a ritual. Happens all the time. She learns to just ignore it. Yuna’ll snap back to reality eventually.

---------------------

“Omo! It’s you girls again! Haha… we must have the same taste” greets Jaejoong, oblivious to his own charms.

“Ah… Jaejoong oppa” blushes Yuna.

“Hyungs, over here!” shouted Junsu after he found Changmin sitting on a table next to where the girls are sitting”

“Excuse us,” smiles Yunho as he proceeds to the table.

“Oh.. yes. Enjoy your meal.” Replies Yuna.

“Well, that was weird.” Commentes Seohyun.

“Weird? Uh.. NO! IT WAS AWESOME!!! It’s like you seeing Johnny Depp twice in a day! Except better because these guys are SMOKING HOT and they’re single and they’re young! Sigh… I am such a lucky person today. Hey, want to go to karaoke after? We’ll look for a place while looking for the things we need to buy. Besides, I haven’t gone in ages.”

“Sure. Same. Last time I went was for your 16th birthday. Wow. I don’t go out much.”

“Yes, so you better have fun today.”

“Awh, I always have fun with you. Hahahaha..”

--------------------

“Hey! There’s a place there! Let’s go!” tugs Yuna as she squints to the distance, seeing the neon Noraebang sign, while holding on to her bags of purchases.

“You have WAY too much energy,” follows Seohyun.

“Well, I’m young so it’s normal, grandma”

“Whatever…. Let me carry some of that.”

“Naw.. it’s okay. They’re all mine anyway so you don’t need to carry them. It’s like weightlifting.” Smiles Yuna

“Okay… here” as Seohyun opens the door to the modern-ly furnished Karaoke for her friend.

“A small room for two please” orders Yuna to the person at the front.

“Right this way…”

“Thank you.”

“Press this button if you need anything” the staff points at a green button next to the intercom by the door.

“Will do” replies Seohyun.

--------------------

“Hyungs! Hyungs! Let’s go karaoke-ing!!” suggests Junsu out of the blue.

“Well, since we have a day off, why not?” answers Jaejoong, excited as well because they’ve been so busy they haven’t had time for themselves.

“There’s one there, let’s go,” points Yoochun to a neon covered building about 100 metres away from where they were standing.

--------------------

“Whenever you look in my eyes, there are so many smiles and tears. I was born to love feel so deep inside..” Yuna sings whole heartedly, along with her favourite group’s first English song.

“Hey…. Isn’t that our song?” asks Junsu to nobody in particular while walking in the noraebang hallway.

“I wonder who’s singing…” thought Yunho.

--------------------

“ oh… oh… oh……” finished Yuna. “Your turn. Let’s see… what song will you sing?” as she flips the pages of the song list folder.

“erm.. Reflection by Christina Aguilera.”

“re…flec…ti…aha. There we go. Here’s your mic. Have fun.”

“Haha… I will…”

Moments after…

“I’m going to the washroom.” Changmin stands up.

“Okay.” Responds the caring leader.

“Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me. Why is my reflection someone I don’t know.. Must I pretend that I’m someone else for a while. When will my reflection shows…. Who I am inside… “

‘wow. Who’s that singer?’ thought maknae as he makes his way back to his hyungs. Being sneaky as always, he peeks at the tiny window. Shocked at who it was he made his way back rather zombie-like.

“Changmin-ah… why do you look like you’ve just seen ghost?” asks Junsu.

“Or was it a girl? Huh? Huh?” Yoochun asks, raising one of his eyebrows naughtily.

“Me? Ghost? Nahh. Just saw the two girls that we’ve been bumping into today. And man, Seohyun can sing.” The maknae replies, not realizing he just blurted out the girl’s name.

“Seohyun?” asks Yunho.

“That’s my dongsaeng. You somehow got her name and remembered it. I knew you’ve always liked girls regardless what you say to the magazine interviews.” Says Jaejoong.

“Of course I’m interested in girls. I’m 18 for crying out loud. At least I’m not as bad as you. You had your first kiss in grade 6.”

“That was involuntary!” exclaims Jaejoong.

“Whatever.”

“You guys want anything to drink? I’m actually quite thirsty…” asks Yunho.

“water”

“orange juice”

“chocolate milk”

“tea”

“Okay.” Yunho pushes the button and orders everything, plus some snacks.

Moments later…

“You need to go to the front desk to pay.”

“Okay. Be right back guys.”

“Ah. Anyonghaseyeo Yunho-oppa” greets the startled Yuna as she sees the charismatic leader at the front desk to pay for her refreshments.

“Oh. Ye, anyonghaseyeo. Coincidence meeting you here again.” Smiles Yunho.

“Hahahahaha… I guess we just think alike.” Replies the fan nervously.

“Hey, are you alone or are you with your friend?”

“I’m with Seohyun, the one from before.”

“Oh great. You guys can come join us. 7 people are better than 2, right?”

“Are you sure that’s okay? I mean, I don’t want to barge in like that.”

“Nah. The members would welcome you and your friend with open hearts. So, do you want to?”

“Omigosh. Of course! I’d love to. Where is your room? I have to go and call Seohyun first.”

“We’re at room 12. See you later.”

“O-okay.”

--------------------

“Oh My Gosh!!!!! You won’t believe what just happened!!!! Yunho from DBSK asked you and me to go and karaoke with them. And I said YES!! They’re at room 12. I met him while paying for the drinks and he asked me and … just let’s go!” explains Yuna, out-of-breath.

“Wow. That’s nice of him. But it’s … weird. And we still have to pay for this room first. Here’s your bag and chill, okay. You’re going to die if you keep hyperventilating. Calm down and breathe. Come with me to pay and then we’ll go. This is going to be awkward.”

“Hey guys, so I met that girl too while paying and invited her over. Well, and her friend.”

“WHAT?!” asks the maknae.

“Aww… our baby boy is going to be all nervous around her.” teases Yoochun.

“Will not! I told you, I don’t have a crush on her!”

“Meh. It’ll be fun. I guess” comments Junsu.

“The more the merrier” adds Jaejoong.

Knock knock

“Oh. Hi. Come on in.” Yunho opens the door for the females.

“Hello, sorry to bother you.” Bow both Seohyun and Yuna.

“No. that’s okay. Sit here.” Jae scooches over.

“Thank you.” Of course, Yuna sits next to him, leaving Seohyun next to Changmin.

“Hi.” Seohyun greets the maknae politely.

“Uh.. hey.” Replies Changmin.

A few hours passed, and more than a few songs have been sung. The girls seem to be more comfortable with the group of handsome and talented men. People that don’t know them would’ve thought they were close friends.

 Hi. :]

My lifejournal is well... empty. 

Why? Because the reason I made an account was so that I could comment on other people's LJs. 

I tried writing a fanfic once... yeah.. didn't work out too well. My story was too long with no climax in sight. It was simply boring. 

So.. I have decided that for now, I should just read and not write stories. 

Anyway, Have a wonderful day and Always Keep the Faith~
