Jonghyun, Minho, and Taemin quietly peer into the kitchen where Key and Onew are currently having a staring match.
"You did what?!" Key yells and Taemin shivers. Jonghyun and Minho each put an arm around him.
"I told Taemin he could go out with Junsu," Onew repeats clearly.
"Why would you do that?" Key shouts. "I told him that he couldn't go."
"And I said he could," Onew replies calmly. "You should have seen his face when you told him that he couldn't go. He was heartbroken. It wasn't fair Kibum."
Key sighs.
"But Junsu is too old for him," he says. "Taemin's only sixteen."
"Junsu won't try anything as long as we're around," Onew replies. "You know that. Come on, let him have a little bit of fun."
Key groans.
"Taemin, Jonghyun, and Minho, stop hiding and come in here," he groans.
The three shuffle into the room. Taemin keeps his eyes focused on the ground.
"I blame Taekyeon's influence on Jinki for this," Key says and Onew smiles sheepishly. "But, you can go."
Taemin looks at Key in disbelief.
"Really?" he exclaims.
"Yes," Key says sighing. "Now go to bed before I change my mind."
Taemin throws his arms around Key and hugs him tightly.
"Thanks hyung!" he exclaims.
"Yeah, yeah, go to bed," Key says smiling.
Taemin nods and leaves the kitchen.
"I'm going to regret this," Key mutters and Jonghyun laughs.
Junsu arrives at the front door of SHINee's dorm at 5:00pm sharp. Key pulls him inside and into the living room.
"Taemin will be joining us in a few minutes," he says. "But before then, there are a few ground rules that I would like to discuss with you. All of them are non-negotiable, understand?"
Junsu decides it's just best to agree and nods.
"There will be no hand holding or touching of any kind. Taemin is not allowed to have alcohol or drugs. And there will be absolutely, positively, no kissing! You break any of these rules and you can kiss any chance of dating my son goodbye."
"Understood," Junsu says and Key grins.
"Good!" he exclaims. "Now I'll go get Taemin."
Key leaves the room and Onew who was standing in the corner takes him aside.
"Kibum quit scaring the guy," he says.
"Oh believe me, I was being nice," Key replies and Onew sighs.
"Jonghyun-hyung, Minho-hyung, do I look okay?"
Jonghyun and Minho laughs as Taemin stands awkwardly in front of them.
"Taemin, you look fine," Minho says. "Why are you so nervous?"
"I want him to like me," Taemin replies and Minho smiles as Taemin cheeks turn pink.
"Earth to Taemin he does," Jonghyun replies playfully pulling a strand of Taemin's hair. "Now stop being so stiff and enjoy yourself. It's your first date for crying out loud."
Taemin smiles sheepishly.
"You're right, I can do this," he says. "…right?"
Jonghyun and Minho hug Taemin.
"Right," they say in unison as they ruffle Taemin's hair. Taemin laughs.
"Taemin, he's here," Key says and Taemin nods as Jonghyun and Minho let go of him.
Taemin walks out to kitchen with the other SHINee members behind him. He smiles brightly as Junsu who does the same.
"Have Taemin back by eight o'clock so he can eat dinner," Key says. "A minute later and you'll be sorry."
"Nine o'clock," Onew corrects. "And it he's five minutes late, I won't mind."
"Jinki!"
"Have fun!" Onew exclaims ushering Junsu and Taemin out of the house. "Bye bye now!"
He closes the door and finds himself faced with Key's glare.
"I'm going to kill Taek for whatever he did to make you so…loose."
Onew laughs.
"He'll be fine Kibum," he says. "Quit worrying."
"There's only one person who can help ease my worries," Key says, as he takes out his cell phone.
SHINee's song 'Love's Way' starts playing in the middle of 2PM's living room and Chansung picks up his cell phone.
"Hey Kibum," he says. "What's up?"
"Babe does Junsu have any penalties on his driver's license?"
"Not that I know of."
"Stalker ex-boyfriends?"
"Nope."
"Stalker ex-girlfriends?"
"None."
"Just plain stalkers?!"
Chansung laughs.
"Junsu-hyung is a good person, Kibum," he says. "You don't have to worry about Taemin."
Key sighs.
"What time will they be back?" Chansung asks.
"Not until nine o'clock thanks to Jinki."
Chansung looks at the clock. Five fifteen. Key was going to need a miracle in order to get through the next three hours and forty-five minutes.
"Do you want me to come over to keep you company?"
Key smiles.
"That would be great," he says.
"I'll be there in ten minutes."
"Alright, I'll see you then."
"Bye."
Chansung hangs up the phone and looks at Jaebeom who is lying on the floor playing his Nintendo DS.
"Hyung, I'm going to SHINee's dorm for awhile," he says. "I'll be back around nine thirty."
"Thank you for reminding me!" Jaebeom exclaims and Chansung blinks. "I have to go there too! I gotta give Jonghyun back his CD."
"I can take it hyung."
"Nope. It's better if I go in person."
"Take what where?" Taekyeon asks as he comes in the room.
"A CD to SHINee's dorm," Jaebeom replies.
"I'll go with you," Taekyeon says. "I've been meaning to give Jinki back his DVD."
"I heard Jinki," Nichkhun says as he comes into the room. "Are you going to SHINee's dorm?"
"Lemme guess…you want to give Minho back to his soccer guide book?" Chansung asks.
"How did you know?" Nichkhun asks blinking.
Chansung laughs.
"You three are hopeless," he says. "We might as well make this group trip."
"Alright!" Wooyoung and Junho exclaim as they come out Wooyoung's room. "Group trip to the SHINee dorm!"
Chansung rolls his eyes.
Ten minutes later Key opens the front door of his dorm to see the six members of 2PM. Chansung smiles sheepishly
"Everyone wanted to come," he says.
Key laughs.
"You guys might as well stay for dinner," he says.
"Chansung told us that these two liters of cola would come in handy," Wooyoung replies as everyone shuffles inside.
"You know me so well," Key says kissing Chansung's cheek. Chansung smiles sheepishly. "Guys, we have guests!"
Jonghyun, Minho, and Onew race out of the room and grin as they see 2PM. Junho holds up a PS3.
"You guys wanna play?" he asks.
An hour later Key, Junho, Jonghyun, and Minho are in an intense Mario Cart race with Chansung, Wooyoung, Jaebeom, and Nichkhun cheering them on from the sidelines.
"Kibum grab that shell," Chansung says wrapping his arms around Key's waist.
"It's hard to drive when you distract me!" Key exclaims, barely picking the red object.
"Sorry. But get ready to shoot Jonghyun!"
"Crap!" Jonghyun exclaims. "Why me?"
"Don't miss him…now!"
Key fires and hits the back of Jonghyun's car. He spins out of control and Key whizzes past him and across the finish line.
"Darn nabit!" Jonghyun yells and Key cheers and tackles Chansung to the floor. When they finally sit up, Key looks at the clock. Six thirty.
"I should get a head start on dinner," he says.
"I'll help," Chansung offers.
Key beams.
"God how I wish you lived here," he says. "If only Jonghyun was that helpful."
Jonghyun rolls his eyes as Key leads Chansung onto the kitchen.
"Thank you," Key says as he pulls out the rack of ribs from the refrigerator.
"It's no problem," Chansung replies. "I like helping you."
"That's nice but that's not what I meant," Key says poking him with a grin. "I meant thank you for coming over. I'm not so stressed out about Taemin anymore."
"I'm glad," Chansung says grinning. "I'm sure they're having a good time."
Taemin smiles as he and Junsu sit down to eat. They've spent the past hour at the Go-Cart track and the arcade.
"Are you having fun?" Junsu asks and Taemin nods.
Junsu smiles. He decided something simple would be best. And after seeing Taemin's nervousness ease away during the hour, he knew he had made the right decision.
They spend the rest of the break exchanging stories about incidents that occurred in their dorms ("I swear that was the last time that we let Wooyoung eat chocolate cake after midnight"; "that's nothing, you should see Jonghyun-hyung on jelly beans), discussing their favorite types of music ("Michael Jackson is so awesome"; "Agreed. Have you heard anything by James Brown?"), and eating from each other's plates ("you sneak, that was my last french fry!").
"So what's next?" Taemin asks.
"Me kicking your butt in skeeball," Junsu replies grinning.
"That's what you think, hyung!" Taemin says grinning.
"Okay, while the ribs are baking for the next two hours, I'll do the noodles. Do you know how to sauté?"
"Not exactly," Chansung replies and Key laughs.
"I'll show you," he says leading Chansung over to the stove. He lines up the vegetables and seasonings next to the front right burner. He then puts a little bit of oil into the skillet sitting on the burner and stands beside Chansung. "Okay put all of the vegetables in the skillet and then turn the gas on medium. After that, just add the seasonings and stir it for about five minutes."
Chansung nods and begins to cook. Seconds later Jonghyun comes into the room.
"Hey have you two seen Taekyeon and Onew? We're about to play Mario Party and you know how Onew loves that game."
"Have you checked the bed room at the end of the hall?" Key asks.
"Okay, so this has got to be the most ridiculous horror movie that I've ever seen," Taekyeon says rolling his eyes.
He and Onew were currently laying stomach down on the bed, watching the "Boogeyman".
"I told you that when I gave it you!" Onew says grinning. "I can't believe you didn't watch it then."
"It was all a part of my plan," Taekyeon replies. "Borrowing something from you gives me an excuse to visit you to return it."
Onew laughs.
They heard a knock at the door.
"Is it safe for me to come in?" Jonghyun asks warily.
Onew opens his mouth to say yes, but Taekyeon puts a finger to his lips.
"You wanna have some fun?" he asks, a mischievous grin on his face. Onew grins and nods.
"Give us a minute!" Taekyeon calls straining his voice and Onew stifles a laugh.
"Yeah we'll be right there," Onew adds panting.
"Oh my God you two are so disgusting!" Jonghyun exclaims.
Onew laughs.
"Come in Jonghyun, we're not doing anything," he says still laughing.
"Very funny," Jonghyun mutters. "We're about to play Mario Party."
"Okay, we'll be out in five minutes," Taekyeon says. "We just need to put back this DVD."
"Jonghyun nods and leaves. When the door is closed, Taekyeon gives Onew a peck on the lips.
"Let's go show them how you really dominate a game."
"Definitely," Onew replies smiling.
At 8:50pm, Key takes the ribs off of the grill, and runs to the front door. Chansung laughs and follows him.
They had better be back on time," Key grumbles and Chansung laughs.
"Don't worry. If Onew told him nine o'clock, then he'll be back by nine o'clock."
And sure enough, at 8:55pm, Junsu's truck pulls up in front of the dorm.
Taemin frowns as Junsu parks the car in front of his dorm. Junsu laughs.
"Don't be so upset!" he says, "or else Key will think I had something to do with it."
Taemin smiles softly and look at Junsu.
"Junsu-hyung -"
"- Junsu."
"J-Junsu. Can we…maybe do this again? Soon?"
Junsu nods and Taemin smiles at him. He's much happier than before as he exits the car. Junsu follows him to the door which is promptly ripped open by Key.
"You're both right on time!" he says clearly thrilled. "Dinner's ready!"
Key and Chansung head back to the kitchen and Junsu and Taemin join the crowd of people in the living room.
"So how was your date?" Minho whispers to Taemin.
"I'll tell you later," Taemin replies. "Hyung has ears like a rabbit's."
"I heard that!" Key exclaims as he and Chansung set the table. "We will be discussing your outing later Taemin."
Taemin sighs and mouths 'I told you' back to Minho.
"So how was it?" Key asks as the members of SHINee sit in their bedroom.
"Hyung, it was so much fun!" Taemin exclaims. "We played arcade games and went go-cart racing and pigged out on food. And Junsu is really nice and respectful."
"Well I'm glad you had fun," Key replies hugging him.
"Hyung, is it possible that Junsu and I can go out again?" Taemin asks cautiously.
"Well…" Key begins and Onew, Minho, and Jonghyun poke him. "Okay! Okay you can go."
Taemin grins.
"Thank you," he says and Key smiles.
Taemin leaves the room to get some ice cream and Jonghyun taps Key's shoulder.
"Do you regret it?" he asks. Key shakes his head.
"He's growing up. Besides, Junsu might be a good match for him."
Onew laughs.
"I think something can be said about Chansung's influence on you, Kibum," he says.
"Shush," Key replies grinning.
