♕ ♕ ♕
Almost everyone seems surprised when Krystal turns out to be the shy one. Outside of things she has to do, Krystal doesn't quite like showing herself off to strangers. Show biz has both helped and worsened her.
On the off hours, when they're not on some broadcast or focused in someone's camera lens, the members of f(x) do their own thing. Lately, Krystal has taken to shredding Kleenex sheets into little strips as she watches the Oppas of Super Junior dote over Sulli.
She's not exactly jealous of the attention. She likes being in her own bubble sometimes.
But it's not like she's not jealous either.
Sulli smiles with her eyes and shows her teeth. Krystal tries to make herself feel better by reminding herself that it's a fake smile, that she's the only one who knows Sulli's real smile.
That night, Krystal announces that she's sleeping over in Sulli's room. They have one half-day off and everyone has decided to sleep in. Sulli is, of course, enthusiastic and even tries to convince everyone to sleep in her room.
Amber and Luna laugh. "But we have our own comfortable beds and rooms."
Victoria teases saying, "This year I'll be... Well, I'm too old for sleepovers."
In the end, Krystal and Sulli are left over in one room. One bed.
Krystal lies down first. She's already regretting her rash decision to sleep over. Trying to stick as close to the wall as possible, Krystal lies on her side. It's uncomfortable, but Krystal knows that she'd be tense even if she had the whole expanse of bed to herself.
When Sulli comes back from brushing her teeth, she laughs at Krystal's position.
"You're practically kissing the wall!" Sulli says.
And Krystal's heart skips a beat when Sulli says the word 'kiss'. She pretends nonchalance though and it becomes harder to pretend when Sulli slips her arm around Krystal's waist.
"I can't believe we're actually doing this" Sulli suddenly says.
Krystal's heart starts to beat a mile a minute. She wonders what Sulli means, and gets excited with the possibilities.
"Finally on stage, singing..." Sulli clarifies.
"O..oh."
"Do you?"
"Yeah, it's...I can't believe we're finally here."
"I know. It's amazing."
"..."
"..."
"Krystal?"
"Y..yeah?"
"I'm glad you're here with me."
"..."
"Krystal?"
"Me too."
Krystal's voice is a notch below a whisper. She wonders if Sulli has heard but then she feels Sulli smile into the back of her bare shoulder. Krystal lets loose a sigh.
The night wears on and Krystal starts to think that Sulli has fallen asleep. Sulli's arms are still wrapped around Krystal's waist. It's almost as if they're spooning. Krystal blushes at the image of them, how they must look right now on Sulli's bed.
Right when Krystal starts to close her eyes, to will herself to sleep though she has a crazily thumping heart, she hears something.
"I'm glad you came."
Sulli's voice is a breath in Krystal's ear. Krystal feels something warm start to seep from her center to the rest of her body. Afterward, she falls into a deep, comfortable sleep.
