Turning Tables (Jonghyun/Se Kyung)
Close enough to start a war
All that I have is on the floor
"How have you been?" Se Kyung looks up to see Geun Young smiling softly at her as she takes a seat next to her, ordering a fruity drink. Se Kyung stares down at her drink which she hasn't touched for an hour that she's been here. It's been a week and a half since news broke up, fangirls who hated her must be rejoicing up till now.
"I'm fine, sunbae." She lies as she gives a very convincing smile.
"Liar." So much for being an actress, Se Kyung learns never to act in front of someone who's been in the business longer than you have.
"But seriously, I thought you guys were going to milk it for a year or two and I thought things were going smoothly. What went wrong?" Geun Young asks as she takes a sip of drink as soon it arrives. Se Kyung looks at her phone on the right and taps the screen, it lights up with a certain dinosaur puppy looking man smiling as the wallpaper. She finally gulps down her drink in one shot before slamming it down on the counter, the bartender quickly refilling it before he entertains the other customers.
"He got tired of acting, I guess." She answers dryly, Geun Young lets out a sigh before she places a hand on her hoobae's shoulder.
"But you weren't acting in the first place." Se Kyung shrugs before taking another one shot.
Next time I'll be braver, I'll be my own savior
Standing on my own two feet
Lucky (Key/Nicole)
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
"Hey, baby!" Nicole squeals and run towards her man. She grabs his shoulders and jumps, he catches her with one arm as she wraps her legs around his waist. and her arms around his neck.
"Yah, don't I get a hello too?" Key complains, Nicole leans in and gives him a peck on the lips. He smiles and gives her an eskimo kiss. Oh how he missed this girl and finally he had the chance to meet her in her group's dressing room at Japan's Music Station building.
"Ewwww. Gyuri unnie, make them stop!" They hear Jiyoung complaining to their Leader at the back of the room, covering her eyes. Gyuri gives the maknae a pat on the head as they sit comfortably on the sofa. The couple ignores them and Key puts Nicole down.
"Guess what I brought for my best friend and best lady?" Nicole jumps up and down, finally noticing that he was hiding something with other hands.
"Ta-daaaaaa~"
"OMG! BABY, YOU'RE THE BEST! " Nicole exclaims as she receives the bento Key made for her. Completely forgetting about her boyfriend, Nicole runs to the nearest table and takes a seat.
"Itadakimasu!" She claps her hands together happily before digging in. Key shakes his head and laughs, he takes a seat next to her and watches her eat. Key completely forgets that he stayed up all night and skipped breakfast just to make the perfect bento. Nicole offers him some, he declines saying he was full and continues to watch her eating away.
I'm lucky I'm love with my best friend
Lucky I'm in love in every way
I Do (Junhyung/Hara)
I thought relationships were nothing but a waste of time
That was the only way I knew till I met you
"Yah, are you sure?" Junhyung turns around and sees her pale white skin through the dark. The small amount of the street light adding to already alluring her bare face beauty.
"Yeah, I am." He reaches out a hand to her, inviting her to the light. Hara slowly and shyly takes his hand and comes to his side. He gives her a reassuring smile and starts to walks, fast enough for her to catch up. Soon they were walking together on their own pace.
click.click.
Hara stops and stiffens, her eyes scan the area. She couldn't see them but she could hear them, Junhyung holds her hand tighter making her look up at him, he give her a reassuring smile.
"Can you do this?" He asks her, she pauses for a moment and wonders if she can. She holds his hand even tighter and nods. He gives her another smile and they start to walk.
click click.
Hara no longer minds the invisible cameras clicking away at them, they made this decision and they were going to stand by this. He was there for her when she felt like no one else was and this time she would be there for him, they would be for each other.
"Oppa, do you believe that we'll get through this?" Hara asks as he walk along the dim lighted streets, she feels the warmth of his hands and he feels her peaceful aura.
"I do. "
You make me wanna say I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Love you
Cuppy Cake (Changmin/Sooyoung)
You're my Honey bunch, Sugar plum, Pumpy-umpy-umpkin
You're my sweetie Pie
"I don't want to go inside." Sooyoung huffs as she stomps her feet. She sneers at the sign in front of their apartment door. (Changmin and Sooyoung's newlywed house ♥"). She hates the heart sign and most importantly, she hates her husband, Shim Changmin. On who she fought with early that day.
Why you ask? It's very simple actually, he took the thing that Sooyoung was waiting to have in the right moment.
The last perfect red velvet cupcake she bought back a few days ago from their Honeymoon in Paris and he just had to eat it.
As childish as it sounds, food was a very very very important thing to the couple and taking the others food without his/her permission meant a declaration of war.
They were shikskins, they loved each other to bits but food was the mistress they would always have. Sooyoung lets out a huff and puts in the passwords and hears a beep. She opens the door knowing that her husband would be home, busy composing songs for idol groups. Sooyoung never understood why he wouldn't be one (he would've been a hallyu star) but if he was, he would be married to a boring old ballet instructor.
Sooyoung enters the room, only to see nothing but smoke fogging up the living room. She doesn't bother taking off her shoes and quickly traces the smoke coming from the kitchen. She comes in and sees Changmin just successfully putting out the fire with an extinguisher.
"Yeobo, what is th-" Changmin doesn't notice her and quickly takes something from the oven, he burns his hand as he drops the hot tray on the floor. He blows on his fingers and places one inside his mouth as he looks mournfully at the failed thing. He looks up, surprised ( more like embarassed) to see his wife see him in this state.
Sooyoung looks at the cupcake tray, putting the pieces together as she walks towards her husband and giving him a "I don't believe that this happened" look. They stare each other for a while until Sooyoung laughs out loud as she places her hand her aching stomach and another on Changmin's shoulder. He gives her a look of disapproval, that she ignores as she wipes a tear she produced from laughing to hard. She adores his cute pout (that she only gets to see). Changmin shows her his hand which looked red and swollen. She blows at them and gives each finger a peck and another on his nose.
"So I guess you'll still sing me my lullaby later, right?" Changmin nods as he plants a kiss on her forehead.
"I love you, yeobo."
"I love you too, cupcake."
And I love to sing sweet songs to you
Because you are so dear
Why are we still friends (Heechul/Jessica)
We do almost the things that lovers do
And that's why it's hard, just to be friends with you
"Donghae broke up with me." Jessica confesses before she buries her face on Heechul's shoulder. He wraps an arm around her while he pats her head with his hand. She finally had too much to drink (which meant she was ready to tell all)
"Again? What is it about this time?" Jessica sobs and incoherent words filled Heechul's ears as he ignores the breaking of his heart.
"Sooyeon ah, there are better guys out there." Like me. Heechul lets her go from his embrace gently and carries her on his back out of the sidewalk eatery and to her house with was a 2 blocks away. Her sister would probably freak out seeing her sister in that state again. He could picture Krystal cursing the school's heartthrob for making her unnie into a uncontrollable cry baby.
Heechul walks slower and more carefully when he was with Jessica (especially when he was giving her a piggyback ride). Jessica's tears would soak Heechul's jacket but he wouldn't mind. She'd sometimes throw up at him, beat him up and be a mess. She would come by his house with the most unflattering clothes with her bare face every saturday to hang out (whether or not they were in the mood or it would rain like cats and dogs).
He'd ignore every girl's advances, every girl's calls and every girl's pleads just have him smile at them. But when Jessica asks for a hug, he'd give her a tight one and whirl her around. When she would call, he'd pick up at the first ring and drop everything when she needed him. Because he loves her and Jessica loves him (but not as much as she loves Donghae). Therefore, they were just friends (the best of friends)
And it kills him every time. He made a mental note call Hongki and the others tomorrow and schedule a beat down on Donghae.
"Heechul ah..." He stops on his tracks and turns his head to Jessica.
"Yeah?" He could smell the alcohol coming from her mouth, but he doesn't mind.
"Things would be easier if I was in love with you, wouldn't it?" Heechul opens his mouth to answer only hear a soft snore come from Jessica. Heechul sighs, adjusts Jessica's weight on his back and continues on walking towards Jessica's house.
Lee Donghae is a dead man.
Why, Why are we still friends?
When everything says, we should be more than we are?
Terrified (Taemin/Krystal)
You set it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
Dugeun. Dugeun. Dugeun.
Soojung places a hand on her chest, trying to calm herself down. She looks down as she passes by Lee Taemin, a boy a year older than her down the halls. She thought he looked so handsome in his new high school uniform, but what was a 3rd year middle school student doing in the high school building. She made a note to be familiar with the building before she would really be studying there for the next semester.
"Krystal!" Soojung looks up at the call of her american name to see her unnie with every guy drooling over her.
"Here are your books, Jess." Soojung gives her sister her english, trigonometry and physics books. Sooyeon thanks her little sister , giving her a hug before hurriedly runs to her next class, why Jessica needed her english book (when they were born and raised in the States) and why would she forget them (because Sooyeon was usually organized) she would never know. She turns around only to crash into something hard, making her fall on her butt.
"Ahh, that hurt." She rubs her butt, damn the skirts here. Why did they need uniforms anyway? Can't they just wear normal clothes?!
"Are you okay?" She looks up and sees Lee Taemin reaching his hand out to her. She tells herself that she must be dreaming. Instead of taking his hand, she gets up and dusts off the dirt on her skirt. Taemin looks at his hand and wonders if it was dirty because the girl didn't take it.
"Are you okay?" He asks again, Soojung looks up in surprise and nods furiously before turning into a shade of pink. She bows and shuffles away, clearly embarrassed. Taemin thinks that he knows her name from somewhere, it wouldn't hurt if he tried right?
"Soojung-sshi?" She stops on her tracks and turns around , clearly shocked (" He knows my name", Soojung screams in her head) . Taemin smiles and waves at her.
Duguen. Duguen. Duguen.
"I'll see you around." He says before turning around and walking to his next class at the sound of the bell. Soojung stares at the empty hall way for a second before she snaps back to reality.
"Oh shit, I'm late for class." Soojung makes a run for it, because even though the middle school building was next to the high school, her room was on the 4th floor.
But she really didn't care, because she'd see Taemin around ( or maybe next semester)
And I'm in love, and I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life

Author's Note: Random songs from my playlist that have inspired me to write these short stories (maybe they can be called drabbles?) I wish Junhyung and Hara all the best in their relationship and mourn for Jonghyun and Se Kyung's break up (at least they're still friends ). Hope you like them, comments are very much appreciated. :)
