When Kyuhyun Got Married
“Hey Seohyunnie, have you heard of the news? I am now in We Got Married!”
…beep beep beep.
She pressed the end call button. What the heck is he thinking calling her just for that?
Seohyun hung up the phone as soon as she heard Kyuhyun announced this news to her as if she had no idea of it. Hello… it’s all over the papers, the TV, the net, the online forums, the fancafes etc. and every time she sees the fantaken pictures of him and that Chinese girl, it makes her insides boil and she suddenly has this urge of throwing her laptop off if she has not realized sooner that this costs a lot and it is just so irrational of her to do that. So irrational and absurd. It is so not Seohyun.
She has always been the prim and proper, the one who has a very good composure even though her unnies have gone berserk around her. She has been the calm one. Is this what you call jealousy? The real jealousy? She has been jealous before during her virtual marriage but as always, that was only for the show, a staged act.
Now she understands why her Yoona-unnie does not have her alligator laugh at times even if Hyoyeon already made them go laughing on all their fours. She now also understands why sometimes she saw her Sunny-unnie almost strangling her Nintendo DS while playing her games.
Then she heard a male’s voice outside her room. She pressed her ears to the door and she could hear her Sooyoung-unnie talking to a familiar voice, the voice of the person who has just called her.
“You sheeems to shucceed in making her jealoush,” Sooyoung mumbled over her food. Apparently she was the only one who was outside and was not staying in her room in the middle of the night because of her ever-so-good appetite. Taeyeon was out in the leaders’ meeting of the company but she bet that their leader is going to go home very late because she and Leeteuk have so much to catch up to. She is thankful that finally they have made up and she can see Taeyeon’s bright smile now. Jessica was already sleeping, as usual. Sunny was in her room, probably wrestling her Nintendo DS again trying to vent her feelings because she just seen the WGM preview of Fighting Junior’s group date. Tiffany was at FAME musical. She’s excited because Siwon will be watching today. Hyoyeon’s out practicing some dance routines but Sooyoung thought that she’s also upset about that group date that’s why she went out. Yuri was with Yesung at the COEX Aquarium visiting their “baby”, their “precious son” Ddangkoma. Yoona was filming Love Rain.
“Can you please do that one at a time? You choose, talk first or eat first?” Kyuhyun told him.
“Aish, oppa!” Sooyoung said irritably after gulping a glass of water to let her swallow al the food that she has eaten. “If you are going to annoy me, I am not gonna help you with Seohyun. I’m telling you she is scary. I’ve never seen her like that. She is always so demure but now she is like a crouching tiger ready to pounce to anyone.”
“Really?” Kyuhyun asked raising his two eyebrows.
“Her two eyebrows here,” Sooyoung pushed her two brows together at the middle to demonstrate it. “It stayed at the middle for the whole day. She stayed in her room for almost the whole day, playing the keyboard, actually banging the keyboard. You never imagined how it hurts my ears. You have to pay for that,” Sooyoung added cheekily.
“Why would I have to pay? If you still insist on that, I will tell Ryeowook to stop his daily delivery of food to you.”
Sooyoung gritted her teeth. She could not match Kyuhyun’s snark. He even used food which is her number one weakness.
“Okay, then. She is inside. Go and approach her gently.” Seohyun heard the footsteps coming closer to her room.
“So he deliberately did that just to make me jealous? I’ll let him have the taste of my jealousy then.”
Kyuhyun knocked at her door. He received no response so he decided to tease her more. “Jealous, aren’t we?” he said in a singsong voice.
Again, there was no response. He opened the door a little bit and peeked inside. He saw no one. All of the sudden a he felt a big force that almost threw him out of the room. He did not know that Seohyun was just hiding behind the door and when he stepped a little closer, that’s the time Seohyun took the opportunity to strike at him. He pushed the door hard and it smacked his face.
“Aww,” Kyuhyun exclaimed wincing in pain. Sooyoung looked at him an sent him an “i-told-you” look.
“So how was your Shanghai romance?” Seohyun asked with her arms crossed. She also had her one eyebrow raised. Her eyes were sending daggers at him. If looks could kill, he would probably be dead of multiple stabs now. “By the way, congratulations for making me jealous, you’ve done it very well,” she sarcastically clapped her hands before slamming the door on him again.
“Oppa, omo, it’s b-bleeding.” Seohyun heard Sooyoung exclaimed outside. Did she hurt him badly? It had been all her fault. She should have managed her own emotions. She paced back and forth inside the bedroom before finally deciding that she had to do something. She had to take responsibility for it.
She opened the door and saw Kyuhyun sitting on the floor beside Sooyoung. His hand was covering the upper part of his face. Kyuhyun took a furtive glance of Seohyun and he saw that her expression now changed and became softer. She looked at him with eyes that were filled by worry and guilt.
“Oppa,” she said slowly. “I’m sorry… I was carried away… Come, I’ll treat your wounds,” with her hand behind his back, Seohyun guided Kyuhyun inside her room. She let him sit at her bed which was at the side nearest to the window and situated behind another bed which belonged to Hyoyeon. She was busy searching inside her drawers for her personal first aid kit when Kyuhyun’s chuckles interrupted the silence in the room.
He removed his hand showing his red yet unscathed forehead. “Got you! Someone is really worried,” Kyuhyun said. Seohyun glared at him again. She whipped her head back and faced her piano.
“You’re really pissing me off, Cho Kyuhyun,” she said darkly and then she started banging her keyboard.
“Seohyunnie, stop that! Oh my, where is my meek Seohyunnie now?” Kyuhyun felt like his eardrums were going to explode any minute. “Don’t you care about your keyboard? You will destroy it!” Kyuhyun shouted while covering his two ears. However, Seohyun did not heed his call. She continued playing her keyboard.
Kyuhyun stood up and wrapped his arms around her holding her hands and pinning her arms to her sides so that she would stop playing. She squirmed to get out of his grip but his arms were just too strong.
“Let go of me!” Seohyun screamed angrily at him.
“I won’t unless you stop your tantrum,”Kyuhyun held on tighter to her and he put his body closer.
“It’s all your fault anyway, why would I stop?” She snapped.
“If you don’t stop, I will-“
“You will what?” Seohyun turned and glared at him. “Nothing you do will st-“
Kyuhyun crashed his lips to her. She was taken aback but she soon gave in as soon as the kiss became gentler.
“Is that enough to calm you down?” Kyuhyun said with his infamous smirk on his face.
“You’re stealing kisses again, oppa,” Seohyun said with a cute pout in her face.
“If I know, you also want it,” Kyuhyun put a smug grin in his face. He straightened himself and then he kneeled in front of her. “I’m sorry for making you angry,” He held her hands and looked through her eyes. “Although it’s really fun to see you angry, if only you see your face it’s really so funny. You exhaled air through your nostrils.” Kyuhyun snickered. “Snort… snort…” He said, imitating Seohyun’s angry face. Seohyun was really getting touched at first at Kyuhyun’s apology but when he started teasing her, she changed her mind.
“… Seohyunie, it’s like you are gonna breathe fire any moment…” His voice faded out when he saw Seohyun’s angry expression again. “Okay, I am gonna shut up now.”
“You keep annoying me these past few days. Why do you have to give me real time feeds about your WGM shoot? Who would not be annoyed by that? ‘Hey Hyunie, I am now on my flight to Shanghai.’ ‘Hyunnie, I am going to meet her any minute now, I am so excited.’ ‘Finally, I meet her; we’re inside the car now going for our date. She’s nice and pretty.’” Seohyun recited one by one the texts that Kyuhyun sent her. She seemed to memorize them all.
“You really got jealous of that. Now you know what I have been experiencing when you were in WGM.” He said as he stroked her cheek.
“So is this revenge?” Seohyun asked as she followed him with her gaze as he slumped back to her bed.
Kyuhyun nooded cheekily.
“Evil…” Seohyun mumbled as she stood up and followed him at bed. She then picked a pillow and hurled it at him.
“Thank you,” Kyuhyun said narrowly escaping the pillow which landed on his side.
“You don’t know what I went through throughout that period,” Kyuhyun said while hugging the pillow that Seohyun tried to hit him with. He remembered how he would slam the door and confine himself inside his room while his hyungs were watching We Got Married (he vent his annoyance on his computer keyboard while playing StarCraft; by the end of the night, he broke his keyboard) or how he would skip their episode after watching the KhunToria couple (the only couple that he was eager to watch because he wanted something new to tease Victoria) or how he would doodle and erase the Yong prefix to Seo and instead replaced it with the suffix Kyu to make it SeoKyu instead of YongSeo. He was almost caught by his Sungmin-hyung but thanks to his quick hand reflexes, he quickly hid it under the pillow. Seohyun also had no idea how much he wanted to agree with Heechul (verbally) when he commented about removing Yonghwa in WGM. Anyway, he made an announcement that day giving them the title of SM’s best official/unofficial couple. Seohyun also did not know that he was upset when she did not watch his musical and how he got a tantrum the whole day when he heard about the news that at one time she sneaked out just to watch CNBlue’s concert instead of the 2PM concert that her unnies were watching at that time.
“I’ve heard a bit about that. Yoona said that you have given her a silent treatment because you saw her in one episode giggling about us.” Seohyun answered. Kyuhyun looked at her with bewildered eyes. How did she know about that? He did not even mention to Yoong the reason he did not greet her everytime they meet during that week.
As if expecting his question, Seohyun answered. “Donghae-oppa told unnie about that.”
He was shocked. Geez, that fishy!!! Such a loudmouth! He started thinking of how he could get back on his hyung when Seohyun sidetracked him.
“Honestly, oppa. You should not be like that because-“
“I know. I have no right to get jealous because I do not own you. I am not your boyfriend. But it made me feel more scared because you were both free that moment… free to love each other. What if… what if you develop real feelings for your virtual husband? I do not have any control for that. I am afraid that he will overtake me because as time passed by, with every episode that you film, you will get closer and closer. I was really afraid that you will fall for him.” Kyuhyun said looking deep in her eyes and from her eyes, she finally saw the memories of the pain that he tried to hide all those times. “I almost did not have you, Seohyun.” He said as he held her hand again.
“You have me now, right?” Seohyun put her hand over his hand and she smiles softly at him.
“That’s why you don’t have to be jealous anymore like I did before. Actually, my last text to you about me being in WGM, I was just kidding about that. They are still discussing if I should get in more-than-a-day marriage. But whether I will be regular or not, it doesn’t matter as long as we trust each other. Let’s not commit the mistakes of our leaders. It’s a headache trying to get them back together.” He inched closer and moved the hand that was underneath hers to meet her fingers and intertwined them to each other.
“No script can change my love for you. My heart is already reserved. I locked it up so that only you can enter because it’s only you who have the key to this heart of mine. You know that key has no duplicates.” Seohyun smiled. She was deeply touched. She would hold on to the words that he uttered that night and she would never ever forget that. With the way he said it, it sounded like a wedding vow.
And speaking of weddings…
“Besides… I am your ideal husband.” Kyuhyun said to her grinning wide. “I saw your drawig on Dangerous Boys…”
“Oppa, let me see your forehead… it looks red a while ago,” the blushing Seohyun said as she tried to evade the topic. She brushed his red fringes to the side. Kyuhyun continued to smile mischievously then he surprised Seohyun again with a peck on her lips.
“Oppa…” Seohyun whined. “Stop doing it.”
“I won’t stop until you admit that I’m your ideal husband.” Kyuhyun started tickling her and Seohyun began laughing nonstop. “Stop it, please…” He continued tickling her until they both roll off the bed, Kyuhyun landing on top of her.
“I would not get as close as this to my virtual wife…” He said before kissing her passionately.
------------------
Hours later…
“Honestly, when the news came up that 2 couples will be added to WGM. I really thought that it would be KyuMin and EunHae.”Taeyeon said to Leeteuk and then they laugh together. Taeyeon’s ahjumma laugh and Leeteuk’s unusually high-pitched laugh combined together and echoed within the long and narrow corridor.
Together they entered the SNSD’s dorm. They saw Hyoyeon who looked like she has just arrived too. She was taking a rest on the couch when the two dorky leaders arrived.
“Everyone is asleep already?” She asked the dancing queen. “Perhaps, everyone is quiet.” She answered.
Just then, Sooyoung came outside of her room. “Oh! Leeteuk-oppa, is that you?” Sooyoung said while rubbing her eyes.
“Why are you up?” Taeyeon asked her.
“I need my midnight snack…” Sooyoung mumbled. “By the way, Leeteuk-oppa, did Kyuhyun text you already? He came here but I did not know if he went back to your dorm.”
“Okay, I will call him…” Leeteuk took his phone out and dialed Kyuhyun’s number.
All I wanna do is find a way back into love…
“That’s Kyuhyun’s ring tone…” Leeteuk said.
“…and it’s coming from Seohyun’s room,” Taeyeon muttered.
They did not want to think that something happened between them… Leeteuk knew Kyuhyun was a decent person but he could not change the fact that he’s the evil maknae. Taeyeon was especially worried because of their precious angelic maknae.
“Park Jungsoo, if Cho Kyuhyun did something to Seo… I will… grrr…”
The four of them went inside the room gently, tiptoeing to get to Seohyun’s bed. It was dark and only the lamp was on. The maknae couple was both in bed, sleeping soundly under the blanket that covered half of their bodies. No, they did not do anything else out of the limits. They just slept literally together.
The four could not help but let an “Awww…” at the maknaes’ sweetness. They cuddled each other and were enclosed in each other’s arms. Her head snuggled comfortably on his chest, her arm wrapped around her waist while Kyuhyun’s arms extended to Seohyun’s back.
“Seohyun,” Taeyeon called and as usual Seohyun automatically sat up on her bed. “Neh, unnie…” she said, her eyes still half-closed.
“No, just go back to sleep.” Taeyeon said.
“Okay…” Seohyun went back and snuggled herself to Kyuhyun as if it was her Keroro stuff toy.
“Teukie, I think Kyuhyun would have to stay for the night.”
“Okay, if you said so…”
---------------------
The next day…
“GOOD MORNING MAKNAES!!!” Tiffany’s voice resounded inside SNSD’s dorm.
Seohyun stirred from her sleep and immediately sat up on her bed. She stretched her arms and when she opened her eyes she saw all her unnies gathered around her bed.
“DID YOU HAVE A GOOD SLEEP, HYUN’S?” Yoona asked.
She wondered why all of them were speaking in plural? She’s the only maknae here and she’s the only who has Hyun in her name.
“Of course, she has a good sleep last night. She has a life-sized stuff toy to hug the all night long.” Hyoyeon teased.
Her memories seemed to come back when she heard a groan beside her. Kyuhyun also had woken up.
“Why are you all here…” Kyuhyun mumbled then he looked around the room. No Sungmin around, no sign of any pink obsession. He looked beside him and saw Seohyun. Okay, he’s not inside his own room. Seohyun buried her face under the blanket in embarrassment. Kyuhyun just smiled… and gently pat Seohyun’s back which was covered by the blanket.
Then there’s the sound of doorbell… Sunny went outside to open the door.
“MAKNAE!!! WE CAME HERE TO PICK YOU UP!!!”
“SuJu oppas are here…” Sunny said as she went back to the room followed by eight other guys. How the eighteen people fit into a room that was only meant for two people was a miracle.
“Hey, I’m only one, why are the all of you here too?” Kyuhyun asked. Leeteuk just shrugged his shoulder.
Such another chaotic morning for Super Generation.
The End.
