As you got in the van, you sat in the back seat with Taemin while Minho sat in the passenger seat and Onew, Jonghyun and Key took up the middle seats. You were barely out of the parking lot before the van’s atmosphere became that of a raging party.
“Hey, can we play my Lady Gaga CD?!” Key asked eagerly.
“Can’t we just listen to the radio for once?” Minho asked.
“Please?” Key begged.
“Fine.” Minho sighed.
“And can we turn the speakers up to full-blast?” Key added.
“At least it’s not Ke$ha again…” Minho muttered.
He reluctantly switched the stereo system to play Key’s mix CD consisting of all of Lady Gaga’s songs and turned up the volume.
“I know that we are young…and I know that you may love me…but I just can’t be with you like this anymore…Alejandro.” Key recited dramatically to Jonghyun.
“Weren’t you the one who just said he was tired?” Onew asked as Key danced.
“I’m not tired anymore.” Key said simply.
You rested your head on Taemin’s shoulder.
“I know I am.” You laughed lightly.
“Are you at least awake enough to…” Taemin trailed off.
“Awake enough to what?” You asked sleepily.
You had closed your eyes momentarily and wondered what Taemin was talking about until you felt him start to trail kisses down your neck. He followed his path back up and kissed your lips when he reached them. Key abruptly stopped singing and turned around to glare at you.
“What do you think you’re doing?!” He demanded.
“Nothing.” Taemin said.
“Do you think you can do that just because you’re in the back seats or something?! We’re all still here!” Key scolded.
“I wasn’t doing anything.” Taemin insisted.
“And shame on you for letting him do that while we’re all still here!” Key suddenly directed his anger at you.
“We weren’t doing anything.” You repeated.
“I saw what I saw, you two. If you’re going to do that, at least…actually, no. Just don’t do that at all.” Key said.
By now, Onew, Jonghyun and Minho had also turned around to see what Key was yelling about.
“What did you do?” Onew asked.
“Were you making out?” Jonghyun teased.
“No.” Taemin lied.
He pulled out his phone to text Jonghyun.
Taemin
Yes.
7:28 p.m.
After showing the text to Onew, who was sitting beside him, Jonghyun nodded.
“Oh, I see how it is.” He said.
Taemin was about to put his phone back in his pocket, but stopped when he saw that he had a new message from Minho.
Minho
Were you?
7:29 p.m.
Minho cocked his head to the side and raised an eyebrow as if to ask again silently. Taemin started to giggle as he nodded.
“Fine, be that way. I know I’m right.” Key said.
“Don’t worry, Taemin. Key’s just being an overprotective umma again. I’ll be an umma who doesn’t nag you.” Jonghyun said.
“I am not naggy!” Key said.
“Here, take some videos.” Jonghyun said as he handed the video camera to Key.
“Okay!” Key agreed.
Jonghyun hoped that giving Key the camcorder would cause him to forget about yelling at you and Taemin. Key turned the camera on himself and hit record. So far, it proved to be an adequate distraction.
“I’M YOUR BIGGEST FAN, I’LL FOLLOW YOU UNTIL YOU LOVE ME! PAPA-PAPARAZZI! BABY THERE’S NO OTHER SUPERSTAR YOU KNOW THAT I’LL BE!” Key sang.
“Papa-paparazzi!” Onew and Jonghyun chimed in.
“PROMISE I’LL BE KIND, BUT I WON’T STOP UNTIL THAT BOY IS MINE!” Key knew all of the lyrics.
Even though you had never heard the song, you joined SHINee in singing every “papa-paparazzi.” They may not have realized it, but SHINee had a way of getting you to stop worrying about everything and let loose. It didn’t matter that many of SHINee’s fans considered you public enemy number one; it didn’t matter that you had just gotten caught making out with your boyfriend; all that mattered was that you were with your friends.
“Here, hold this. Keep it recording though.” Key said as he passed you and Taemin the camcorder.
Before Taemin could ask why, Key started to sing and dance energetically with Jonghyun.
“Ra ra ah ah ah, roma roma ma!” Key began.
“SHINee ooh la la!” Jonghyun continued.
“Want your bad romance!” They sang together.
You and Taemin, along with Onew and Minho, watched in amusement as Key and Jonghyun sang Bad Romance to each other-although it was more like Key singing to Jonghyun. Jonghyun only knew some of the lyrics, but Key knew each and every word. The video camera had distracted not only Key, but Taemin as well. He had completely forgotten about wanting to kiss you.
“I want your love. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! I want your love.” Key sang to the camera.
Onew, Minho and Taemin didn’t seem to have much of a reaction to this. They watched Key and Jonghyun as if it was something they did on a regular basis. Taemin, Onew and Minho took turns passing the camera back and forth until Key eventually took it back and shut it off.
“Maybe I’ll record some more later, but I wanna listen to this song. I love this song.” Key said.
The song that had just started playing-Brown Eyes-was a slower one. You were still tired and hearing this song only made you sleepier.
“I’m just gonna lie down for a bit.” You said as you sprawled out across the seats.
“Wanna lie down with me?” Taemin propositioned.
He took the opportunity to lie down on top of you, laughing a bit as he moved your hair out of your eyes.
“Taemin!” You exclaimed.
“Relax, I’m only kidding. Premarital sex is bad.” Taemin said as he sat back up.
“Sex?! I thought I told you not to do that!” Key yelled.
“I was kidding! I wouldn’t have premarital sex.” Taemin said.
“Good. I don’t want you doing things like that.” Key said.
“But she’s my girlfriend. How else am I supposed to show her my affection?” Taemin asked as he touched his forehead to yours and smiled.
“Not sexually.” Key said simply.
You and Taemin spent the rest of the car ride with Key watching you like a hawk. He had let it happen twice already and did not plan to let Taemin make another move on you-it was no wonder he was known as the overprotective umma of SHINee.
