Chapter 1 - Shining Star
“Aaaaaaah” I slowly slid down at the backseat of our manager hyung’s car. I just heard Sungmin shut his door beside me.
“Hyung, you look so tired, you should get some rest when we get back to the dorm” he said, fixing his seatbelt.
I just gave him a smile and then looked away. It has been a busy year for us. Our third album was just released and we’re promoting our song here and there. Not forgetting our radio show. I feel so tired. I feel so restless. All I wanna do is sleep. Just sleep. I know it’ll make me feel better. Those words kept repeating in my mind until I my eyes were closed. I fell asleep.
“Hyung! Hyung!” someone shook me. I opened my eyes slowly taking every moment to see who it was.
“Aish!” His voice starting to rise. “You’re always hard to wake up!”
I looked up, surprised to see Heechul’s unhappy face.
“Heechul-shi?” I started with a very weak voice.
“Did you expect Santa Claus? Get your ass up and let’s go upstairs.” He unbuckled my seatbelt.
I didn’t move. I felt his hand reaching the lock. He was standing outside, so he bent down his head inside the car. All of the sudden his face was so close to mine. I am breathing in his ear. I felt his hand stopped moving. He is listening to my breath. Every time I exhale into his left ear, I felt his body drawing closer to mine.
What is this? Why is he stopping? I can hear his heart pounding. What? Why? What’s going on? Questions gather inside my mind as I consciously breathe towards his ear. It seemed like we were there forever. Neither of us moved until we heard a car beeped. He quickly let go of the belt, it was unbuckled already, but for how long was it? Was it just now or before I felt his heart pounding in front of me? He straightened himself outside the car, trying to fix his hair.
The car slowly made its parking beside us. Kangin rolled up his window. “Hey! What are you guys doing here?”
I couldn’t really answer him. I don’t have an answer actually. All I could think was: What was that earlier?
Heechul managed to chuckle at Kangin.
“Sungmin asked me to wake Teukie-hyung.” Heechul glanced at me. “It seems like it took forever than I thought.”
Sungmin asked him? When?
“I’ll take care of him.” Kangin finally got out of his car. He made his way towards me and suddenly picked up my right arm and slowly lifting me out of the car.
“Hyung, let’s go.” He said in a rough voice.
I nodded at him then looked at Heechul. He turned away.
“Yeah. He’s all yours.” He started walking towards the elevator without looking back.
The basement parking lot of our apartment was so quiet and peaceful. I was checking left and right for the members’ cars to see if who’s already home. I saw Donghae’s and Eunhyuk’s. Kangin slowly helped me walk towards the elevator. Heechul was there, standing, waiting.
He only glanced our way once. When we reached the elevator door, he turned around again, his back against us. Not saying a single word.
Inside the elevator, the three of us were so quiet. I finally managed to stand all by myself without Kangin’s help. A ringing mobile phone broke the silence. Kangin quickly searched his pocket and got his phone.
“Hello?” He said.
I wasn’t really interested in who was calling him. My mind is still in the parking lot where all I can hear was Heechul’s heart.
*DING*
The elevator door opened. Kangin stepped out first, still talking in his phone. He seemed to be busy and in a hurry to get to the dorm. Without thinking, I made two quick steps towards the door bumping into Heechul. We both moved out at the same time.
“Ow.” He said in a low cry.
He looked at me, eyes really dark and deep. I couldn’t say anything. I wanted to apologize but words won’t come out of my mouth. Then he gestured me to step out first. I did so. I was walking straight. I wasn’t really giving attention of what’s happening behind me, if he’s just one or two steps away from me. I can turn around and face him. Confront him of what happened down at the parking lot. Why all of this time he was so silent. Heechul couldn’t be this silent. Yes I know he can be emo-ish but not today. I have a strong feeling that this is different. I have never seen him like this before. But I couldn’t. My feet are quickly moving forward.
I reached the front door first, opened the door and left it for Heechul. Kangin must have forgotten about us since he closed the door when he entered. When I walked past the living room, I heard Kangin’s door closed. Yes, he really forgot about us. I still wasn’t interested on the person he’s talking to.
I opened the fridge and picked up a bottled water. When I looked up at the clock, it was 11:46 pm.
This late? I thought.
Heechul went directly to his room without saying a word. I squeezed myself in the living room sofa, studied the remote control on my hand, trying to figure out what to push. Finally, I stretched my right arm and pointed at the TV, pushed the “ON” button. KBS News was on. I watched news about Korea’s economic problems and some government officials making statements that Korea will experience a little crisis. A let out a small sigh, put down the bottled water I got from the fridge at the small table in front of me. I slowly fell asleep in the sofa.
Laugh. Laugh. Laugh. That’s all I heard. I opened my eyes. Eunhyuk’s laugh was all I heard. Then, there’s Donghae’s and Hangeng’s. I was about to get up when I heard Heechul’s voice. I stayed still laying on the sofa. They were in the kitchen talking. They didn’t notice I was already awake. Curious on what they’re talking about, I listened carefully, trying hard not to move in order not to be noticed.
“It’s Heechul hyung’s turn now.” Eunhyuk said.
“Why are you always picking on me?” Heechul laughed.
“Since you’re the oldest here.” Hangeng answered.
“Well, Teukie hyung is just there in the living room, we can..” before Donghae could finish his sentence, Heechul interrupted suddenly.
“No! You’re not waking hyung up.” He said with a loud voice that everyone stared at him.
“He’s tired and all, I woke up him up when Sungmin left him in the car.” Heechul explained.
“Sungmin left him?” Hangeng asked.
“Yeah. He had to. Sungmin was late for a schedule, that’s why he told me to take care of Teukie hyung.” Heechul said.
“Where was Sungmin headed?” Donghae asked as he glanced towards the living room, trying to see if Leeteuk is awake.
“Sungmin went to film a CF for Sunkist,” Heechul started. “He was running late because of me. I was at the SBS building for a meeting when my car broke, so I had to call Teukie hyung for help. Apparently he fell asleep in the car on the way home, so Sungmin answered for him. Their car made a turn towards my direction and picked me up. Sungmin and Manager hyung had to ride with Siwon in going to the set.”
“Now I get it.” Donghae said. “Hyung must be tired from all the meetings and stuffs.”
“We have Sukira tomorrow, hope he’ll be better by then.” Eunhyuk said.
“You better take good care of him tomorrow, or else.” Heechul snapped.
“I will, I always do.” Eunhyuk laughed.
“Good, because hyung is precious, he’s my shining star.” Heechul stated.
My heart skipped a beat. I couldn’t say a word. Everything went into circles.
‘He’s my shining star’
The words made me crazy. What was that supposed to mean? Were they playing jokes on me or teasing me while he’s sleeping? What was really going on with Heechul. He’s not himself. He’s not the greasy kind of guy.
I raised my left hand and checked my watch, 2:33 am. For once I realized, it was good when I opened my eyes and saw Heechul’s face, and then I smiled. I looked up the ceiling, fighting away from Heechul’s words. I couldn’t hear them anymore. Their laughter and voices were fading away. I closed my eyes and again, I dozed off without knowing. Into dreamland, Heechul was all in my eyes. It’s the first night I dreamt of Kim Heechul. He’s standing in front of me, saying “My Shining Star” all over and over again. I couldn’t believe it but I was drawing near him and a smile was starting to form over my face. What could this mean? I was in deep sleep. Dreaming of Kim Heechul.
