YOU AND ME FOREVER (FOREVER YOUNG) [Chapter Five]
The ride back home was tense. At least it was on my part.Dongwoon tried to start a few conversations with me, but i blatantly ignored him. I was too angry,too annoyed, too frustrated. At what? I had no absolute idea.
No, I really really wasn't jealous.
~~
After a quick shower, I was going to go back to my room when I bumped into Dongwoon at the corridor. I gave him one disgusted look, and walked around him.
"Key.. are you angry at me? If you are, I'm really really sorry. Can you tell me what I did, so I can try to make up for it..." he said.
I sighed, "No i'm not..probably i'm just too tired.. you should go get some sleep too" i tried convincing him.
I saw the corners of his mouth curling up,so infectious it almost made me smile too.Turning away before my mouth decided to say something stupid,I walked towards my room. I froze for a moment when I heard him say,
"Can I go out with Lee Joon tomorrow...?"
I muttered a quick 'whatever' before walking into my room and slamming my door shut,leaving a very confused Dongwoon behind.
~~
The next morning, I decided to show Dongwoon my unhappiness with him going out with Lee Joon, so i didn't go into the kitchen to have my breakfast, despite the welcoming smell of french toast. Instead, I stayed in bed, curled up under the blankets.
Finally, two hours later, i heard a knock on my door before it was being opened.
"key, i know you're still really tired from yesterday. But if you want breakfast, i put it inside the microwave so that you can heat it up later.I'm going off to meet LeeJoon now, bye~" i heard him say.
I peeked from under the blanket. I see Dongwoon standing at my doorway, wearing something i've never seen before. Presumably his old clothes.His huge specs still made him look like a mad scientist. I sighed, not only was this boy dense, he still was so old-fashioned. Why didn't he wear what we bought while shopping! And for goodness sake, did he really think I was tired?!
I didn't know why I was so angry that Dongwoon was going out with Lee Joon that day. I'm not even supposed to care about the existence of that stupid nerd anyway. I am, afterall, the ALMIGHTY KEY! wait , now that i've thought about it, it does sound very Sailor Moon .
~~
The day passed very slowly. I checked my phone, hoping that Lee Joon would keep me updated about the 'date'. Wait, who was I kidding? Lee Joon never tells me about the people he goes out with, not as if i'd be interested in it anyway.
But this was DONGWOON !
I mentally cursed myself for worrying so much. Finally, succumbing to temptation, I reached my phone and started texting :
To : Stupid Joon
Hey, do you realise what time it is!It's 8pm, way pass Dongwoon's curfew! BRING HIM BACK NOW!!!
I didn't get a reply from Lee Joon even after hours of waiting. Finally, my eyelids gave up on me, as I slowly drifted off to sleep on the couch.
~~
I reluctantly woke up when I heard the sound of keys. I ran over to the cctv monitor, and to my horror, I found an unidentified male species unlocking my door slowly. I didn't know how he managed to get my key, but I didn't want to die yet. I ran over to the store room and grabbed one of the golf club I kept for emergency times, like this one.
I sneaked over to the kitchen, as it was the room nearest to the door. When I heard the stranger place down his keys and walk towards the kitchen, I got ready my position. As soon as I could see him from the corner of my eye, I jumped in front of him and repeatealy hit him with the golf club.
"AHHH! stop it KEY STOP IT!" i ignored the plea from the stranger, despite finding familiarity in the voice calling my name. I was succeeding in attacking him, until he pulled the golf club from my grip, but when I refused to let go, one of his hand snaked around my waist, pulling me in closer to him, while the other finally manage to pull the stick away from me.
He tossed it aside. I gulped as I watched it flew at least 15 meters away. Damn, this intruder was stronger than I thought! I looked up at him, only to find myself lost in those eyes. Now where have I ever seen such sensual eyes? Finally, realization hit me , as I managed to mutter our,
"D..D..Dongwoon?!"
He just smiled, still not letting go of me. I took in the view in front of me.
Dongwoon's hair, it was dyed dirty brown. He now had a slanted fringe that covered till just above his left eye. His eyebrows were no longer a jungle. It was shaped very finely, very thinly. I realised that he lost his disgusting spectacles. I looked closer, to find contact lenses replacing them. He no longer was wearing what he wore in the morning. Instead, he had white skinny jeans on, with a white blazer over his black t-shirt. Oh god, he looked like he came out of an Armani advertisement.
I gasped. Never in my short 18 years of life have i ever seen something as beautiful, as perfect as this guy right in front of me.Who would have known that he had this underneath the nerdy surface. Wait, how did he turn out like this even? How can he change so much in one day?
"so what, Lee Joon is your sugar daddy now?" Shit.That came out harsher than I wanted it to be. The look in his eyes showed a hint of hurt. I quickly took this chance to untangle myself from him, and ran towards my room.
Once I reached the comfort of my bed, I hid under my blanket, trying hard to slow down the fast beating of my heart.A few moments later, I heard my door being opened , then shut. I could here footsteps coming towards me and I knew very well who it was.
"Key.. listen to me!" he pleaded
I ignored him, and continued to stay under the blanket.
"okay i'll just talk and you listen okay? I am not dating Lee Joon , if that's what you're thinking. I know you are very concerned about that.Truth is.. yes I did go out with Lee Joon today.. and DooJoon hyung.."
Hearing that, I came out of my hiding, only to find Dongwoon kneeling beside my bed.
"Actually, Lee Joon asked Doojoon hyung to go out with him. But being a good hyung who always looks out for me,Doojoon hyung told him that he would only do so if he could amazingly transform me. Not just transform me by changing my clothes, change me totally. And thus, this happened.." he said pointing to his hair, and face.
I slowly absorbed the information. I did believe Dongwoon. I knew how Lee Joon hated to waste time, so it wouldn't be hard to believe that he'd do this to Dongwoon in just a short period of time, so that he could date that Doojoon guy. Still, I decided to play with Dongwoon a little more.
I just sat there and stared at him, trying to show a very unhappy face, making him believe that I didn't believe his story.
Finally, he said,
"i'm sorry if this makes you angry. If it makes it all any better, I'll get everything changed back by tomorrow morning, except the eyebrows of course. I can't get extensions for that"
I laughed at the reaction I got, and started to poke the now confused Dongwoon.
"Pabo! of course I believe you~ I was just kidding" I managed to say in between laughters.
Finally, after making sure I was sane enough to be alone,Dongwoon stood up, to go back to his room. I frowned, as I wanted to enjoy his company.
He stopped in his tracks, and then turned to me and said,
"I didn't know I had curfew Key-umma!" he laughed, and then switched off my light for me
