"Err.. Are you sure this is the place??" Yunho said uneasy while looking at the house.. "I think we need to go somewhere else but not.. here.." he gazed back at Changmin who's sitting on the driver's seat, regretting that he let him drove..

"What's wrong with this place?? And where are you planning to go beside here?? Junsu hyung is not in Korea right now.. Yoochun hyung is living with his family.. Your sister is staying at your apartment and preparing for her exams.. We might be a disturbance for her studies.. Your parents are in Jeollado and mine are here in Seoul.. But we can't stay with them because our company will 'bother' them for sure.. We both received a call from our parents a while ago.." Min explained.. 

"And you think we won't be a nausea to them??!" Yun bickered and pointed to the house, frustration was palpable in his face..

"I know.. But if sister-in-law agrees.. Jaejoong hyung will never be a problem.." Min reassured him..

"No.. I don't want any other people to get involve on us.. You know how Jaejoong protected Jasmine.." Yun heaved a deep sigh..

"Do you think we will let anything bad happen to Jasmine??"

"Of course not.." Yun frowned.. "Aish.. I shouldn't have let you drove the car!! That's why I'm doubting your plan from the start.." he gritted his teeth and snatched the steering wheel from Min, trying to seat on the driver's seat where Min was sitting.. 

"Then tell me your plan!! I'm sure you don't have anything planned!!" Min glared and held the steering wheel tighter while his body was pushing Yun away..

The car was bouncing because of their commotion inside under the setting sun.. Yun wants to go to the other place while Min wants to stay..

"We can..live in an apartment.." Yun bickered.. 

"Okay.. You live there and let's see how long you can stay there.. I'm sure the owner will kick you out in a week because of fans and reporters bothering the whole neighborhood.. I.Will.Stay.Here!!" Min glared at him and emphasized the last four words while gritting his teeth..

"AAHHHHH!!!" Yun shouted inside the car, letting his frustrations out.. He heaved a deep sigh and went back on the passenger's seat, panting..

Min smirked and hugged the steering wheel..

"Hyung.. Just agree on this.. Oh?? I..I promised that I will help you more from now on.. I.. No.. We will make sure that nothing bad will happen to Jasmine if that's your concern.." Min stared at him with pleading..

"That is not only my concern.. If they find out that we're here, that is the worst problem for both of us.." Yun frowned and heaved a deep sigh again..

"That's why we're here.. If they found out, they can't go near us because we're here.. The court has a restraining order not to interfere with our Hyungs.. Okay.. We're still under their contract but we cleared to them that we will have our own privacies and normal life even just for our off hours.. And here.. We can have our privacies without securities and big heads following our every moves.. We will still working and continue our activities under them.. It's just.. We will live here not on the dreadful place like theirs.. They can't go here.. It's Jaejoong hyung's place.. It's the safest place for us as I can see.." Min stated desperately.. "They have to bear with us if they want us to continue the rest of the contract until it ends.. Or they can kick us themselves, that would be easier for us to break free.." he added..

Yun intently listened to him with his close eyes, he was in a deep abyss.. He opened his eyes and stared at the orange sky..

"Okay.." he heaved a deep sigh and Min grinned in relief.. "BUT.. We will not stay here for long.. Just a few days or weeks.. Until we can find our own place to stay.. And you!! Listen to Jaejoong or he'll kick us out.." he warned..

"Araseo.. He won't kick us out as long as sister-in-law is on our sides.. Besides, we're in Japan next week for our concerts.. They can still have their 'private times'.." Min chuckled.. "Let's go, Hyung!!" Min got off of the car..

"Aish.. This is is going to be a disaster for sure.." Yun murmured before getting off of the car..

They went to the gate and pressed the doorbell.. 

"I don't think someone is in right now.." Yun frowned and looked at their sorroundings..

"I'm pretty sure Jasmine is always staying in the house.. Jaejoong hyung doesn't want her to get a job, yet, so she must be at home at this hour.." Min tilted his head and frowned as he pressed the doorbell for the third time..

"Ahmm.. Maybe they're dating somewhere?? We should have informed them that we're coming.." Yun rubbed the back of his neck.. "Let's just go.. We can still find a place before the night.." Yun suggested while watching him pressing some numbers, hopefully that their stubborn maknae would give up.. His jaw dropped when he heard the click from the intercom and the small gate on their side unlocked itself..

Min grinned victoriously and pushed the small gate wide open..

"Yah.. How did you know the passcodes?? Jaejoong changed it the last time we got here.." Yun asked amused.. 

"I just pressed certain numbers and it clicked!!"

Min excitedly went inside first.. Yun hesitantly followed and heaved a deep sigh in defeat..

"Seriously, how on earth do you the passcodes??" Yun asked amused again after Min pressed another passcode for the door of the house to open..

"Its the same passcodes on the gate.." Min answered nonchalant and shrugged..

"Oh.. They're really not here?? Even Jasmine??" Yun mumbled as they switched the lights on..

"Wait.. I need to park our car inside the garage and Hyung, you take the luggages.." Min commanded..

"Yah!! Why take it now?? We're still not sure if Jaejoong will let us stay here.." Yun stared at him in disbelief.. 

"Just trust me on this, Hyung.. And Jaejoong Hyung couldn't bear to see us suffering and staying at some place like jail.." Min grinned and went outside..

● O ● O ● O ● O ● O ● O ● O ● O ● O ●

It was passed nine when Jaejoong and Jasmine arrived at home from her grandfather.. 

Jaejoong glanced at Jasmine who's sleeping on his side and smiled.. He reached and brushed her hair away from her face and carefully unbuckled their seatbelts.. He carefully removed her head from the pillow against the window and rested it on the car seat before getting out of the car and went to the other side.. He opened the door and carefully carried her bridal style.. 

She flinched and woke from her light sleep.. She hummed and sleepily hugged his neck.. 

"Home??" she mumbled and rested her head on his shoulder..

"Yeah.. Just go back to sleep.. I'll carry you inside.." he kissed her head as he carried her towards their house.. He frowned when he noticed that the lights inside were switched on.. "Did we left the lights on before we left this morning??" he asked warily..

"I..I can't remember.." she mumbled and tightened her hug on his neck..

"Stay in the car.. I will find out and see who's inside first.." he commanded and turned back..

"No, Jae.. What about you?? I want to stay with you.." she frowned and stared at him worriedly.. 

"No, Babe.. I need to make it sure that you will be safe.." he said sternly..

"But.. I don't think someone inside is a dangerous person, Jae.. It must be your mom or your sisters... Please??" she pleaded and swayed her legs as he walked back to the car..

"NO.. I don't want anyone hurting you like the last time and I did nothing but hide and watched you.." his face was serious as he remembered her encounter with his fans when they got a fight, back at her first weeks of staying with him.. 

"But you're here now.." she said staring into his eyes with sincerity.. 

Silence filled around them..

"Aish.. You're the most stubborn person I've ever met.." he heaved a deep sigh in defeat.. 

She smiled and kissed his cheek.. He tried not to smile widely at the kiss..

"Can you stand for a moment??" he asked and she nodded.. He carefully set her down on the ground and held her hand, keeping her on his back..

"Run if we found a bad person, okay??" he said sternly and kissed her forehead.. 

She bit her bottom lip and reluctantly nodded, not really planning to run and leave him..

"Yah.. You look like a bodyguard.." she giggled as she watched his back..

"I'm your bodyguard, Baby.. If anything bad happens to you, I will never forgive myself.. And how can you laughed at this moment??" he chuckled and stared at her amused..

She blushed and gripped his sweater on his waist with her free hand.. He put his serious face back and carefully twisted the door knob while she tightened her held on his hand..

But before he opened the door himself, the door flew opened and tall guy grinned at them..

"Annyeong!!"

"Changmin??" Jae frowned confused.. "Yah.. You freaked me out just now.. What are you doing here at this hour??"

"Let's talk about that later, Hyung.." Min snapped and turned his gaze to Jasmine.. "Omo!! Jasmine?? Is that you?? Waah!! I never seen you dressed like that!!" he said mesmerized.. 

"Thank you.." she blushed and felt Jae's held on her hand tightened.. 

"Look at other woman not her.. She's mine.." Jae bickered while staring at him with fierce eyes..

"Araseo.. You made the point.. She's yours.. Satisfied??" Min said sarcastically and turned his back to them while shaking his head and mumbling some words of annoyance..

Jae chuckled and stared at her.. He gulped and smiled nervously while rubbing the back of his neck when he saw her eyes narrowing at him.. 

Her face softened and bit her bottom lip to stop her smiles.. 

"Hyung.. They're here.." Min sat on Yun's stomach who's sleeping on the couch..

"AHH!!" Yun groaned in pain and woke from his slumber.. "YAH!!" he pushed Min out of him and the latter fell on the carpet.. He scratched his head in frustration while staring at him in annoyance.. 

Min wickedly grinned and slapped his lap..

"Why do you keep harassing me?!" Yun burst while gently rubbing his stomach, still sleepy.. He followed Min's gaze and jaw dropped when he saw Jasmine and Jaejoong.. "Oh.. You're here.." he embarrassingly rubbed the back of his neck..

She bowed and gave Yun a friendly smile.. She bit her bottom lip as she tried not to laugh at his messy hair from sleeping.. 

While Jae stared at both of them confused and suspicious.. He turned to her and caressed her hand with his thumb..

"Tired??" Jae asked softly..

"Ani.." she shook her head..

He narrowed his eyes as he glanced at HoMin then to her.. "No.. You're tired.. Let me get you to bed.."

"Yah!!" she gasped and eyes widened in shock when he carried her bridal style with HoMin watching them.. Her arms automatically wrapped around his neck.. She bit her bottom lip and hid her reddened face on his neck because of embarrassment.. He was the only one who can make her feel embarrassed but flattered and heart in bliss at the same time..

Yun chuckled and shook his head while Min covered his eyes and looked away in disgust.. 

"Wait here.." he said to HoMin before heading to their room..

"Yah.. You didn't have to carry me in front of them.." she said while blushing madly and closed the door..

"If I didn't carry you, you will just stay there with them.." he mumbled as he walked towards the bed..

"What's wrong with that??" she pout..

"Because you had the power to make guys go crazy on you.. Especially now that you're wearing a dress and showing skin.." he said seriously and set her down on bed..

Her jaw dropped and stared at him in disbelief.. She narrowed her eyes on him as she removed her shoes and put it on the floor beside the bed.. 

He heaved a deep sigh and sat behind her, his foot on the floor and one leg bent on her side.. He wrapped his arms around her stomach and rested his chin on the crook of her neck, pulling her closer.. She bent her knees on her side and pulled the covers up to her waist..

"Mianhae.. Don't get mad, hmmm??" he pouted and stared at her with puppy eyes.. "Baby~" he wiggled his body on her back..

"Yah.. I'm not mad.." she couldn't stop herself from smiling, he was adorable and cute like a kid and she couldn't stay mad at him for long.. "And.. Thank you for coming with me today.." she turned to him and kissed his cheek..

"Ah.. You don't have to.. thank me.. You know that.. I'll do anything for you.." he sheepishly smile and rubbed the back of his neck..

"You don't have to do anything for me, Jae.. You've done much enough for me since I've met you.." she said sincerely and rested her back on his chest while he wrapped his arms back around her stomach.. 

"I did?? I only remembered those times when I keep teasing you.. Getting mad at stupid things because of my sulkiness, even yelling at you many times.. And making you cry and hurt.." he heaved a deep sigh and face fall in agony after he said the last words and rested his chin on his shoulder.. "I want to amend all my mistakes on you in the past.." 

"Yah.. What are you saying??" she smiled and held his hand.. "You didn't make a mistake.. Don't regret anything.. I guess, we we're just really stupid back then.." she bit her bottom lip and smiled at the thought..

"Yeah.. You and I.." he rubbed his cheek on the crook of her neck and poked his fingers deep in her waist..

"Jae!! It tickles.." she flinched and giggled while jerking her head away and moved spasmodically..

He grinned and cupped her cheek with his free hand and kissed her lips.. She adjusted her position and turned her side to him as she returned his kisses that can melt her, gripping his shirt on his chest and both closed their eyes..

"Yah.. Jae.. Jaejoong.." she opened her eyes and panted while still kissing each other..

"Hmmm??" he ran his fingers through her hair, on the back of her head and pulled her closer as he deepened the kiss.. 

She cupped his face and pulled away from the kiss..

"What??" he frowned while slowly catching his breathes and staring at her wet reddened lips then back to her eyes and back and forth.. 

She bit her bottom lip and pointed to door, reminding him that they have visitors at the moment.. 

"Geez.." he scratched his hair in frustration and dismay.. "Anyway.. What are those two doing here?? I feel like something had happened that they went here at this hour.." he mumbled..

"Is everything alright??" she asked worriedly and stared at him..

"I don't know yet.. But don't worry.. Everything will be fine.." he assured her while he intertwined his hand on hers.. "Just rest.. I'll be back in a while.. I think we need an hour of talking.." he murmured and pulled the zipper of her dress down on her back..

"Hey.." she blinked and shrugged as she felt the cold air on her back..

"I'm just helping you to take this clothes off.. Or wanna take a shower with me later??" he grinned mischievously and planted a kiss on her .. "I love dressing you.. But I love it more when I undressing you.. It's y.."

"ert.." she narrowed her eyes on him..

"I love you, Jasmine.." he gave her a small laugh and kissed her lips then to her forehead.. 

"Rest.." he mumbled and kissed her lips again, it for seconds.. He can never get enough of her tempting lips.. He smiled and stood up..

She blushed and caressed her lips with her fore finger as she watched him heading out of the room..

~~~~~

"So?? Care to tell me the story now??" Jae asked as he sat beside Yunho in the mini bar..

Min was beside Yunho and eating their snacks..

"Ahmm.. But.. Aren't you going to drink?? I think you might need it while listening to us.." Yun asked as he noticed that Jae has a glass of water while he and Min have a can of beer each that the latter got in the fridge ..

"Ani.. Jasmine doesn't want me to drink and smoke except for special occasions and events.. She'll kill me if I did.. And she has a strong sense of smell when it comes to alcohols and chocolates.. But it's my own decision to stop for her to like me more.." Jae stated with a smile of fascination.. 

"You're obsessed, Hyung.." Min snapped and opened the can of beer..

"Obsessed, huh?? Maybe.. But I like the feeling, Changmin.. You two should find one, too.." he chuckled..

"Oh please Jaejoongie Hyung.. We didn't come here to hear your confessions of love.." Min said sarcastically.. He wickedly grinned and teasingly handed him the can..

"Yah.. You can't tempt me.." Jae beamed..

"Ei~ I feel like we're bad influences to you now.." Yun chuckled while playing with his can..

"Anyway.. What do you want to talk about?? And what are you doing here at this hour?? Is it okay that you're here??" Jae frowned and stared at them bewildered..

HoMin stared at each other then back to him..

"We ran away.." Min blurted.. 

"Ran away?? Where??" Jae asked confused.. 

"From them, of course.. We don't want to stay in their place anymore.. It's suffocating.." Min explained.. 

"Woah~" Jae's jaw dropped..

"Yeah.. And Meannie wanted us to stay here.. If you will allow us.." Yun said straightly, already prepared at what he was going to say..

"Oh.. Wait.. WHAT?!" Jae stared at them in disbelief..

"Jaejoongie Hyung.. This place is the safest place for us.. We will make sure that they won't bother you here.. We will still work under them to continue our left activities until both of our contracts ended.."

"Ahmm.. We will not stay here for long.. Until we find a place to stay.. But now, we couldn't because of our situations.. They would just put securities on our place and nothing will change then.." Yun added..

"And Hyung..I want to stay with you.. I.. I miss staying with you.. I miss your food.. And you.." Min pout and looked down at his snack..

"Oh.. You.. You do??" Yun asked confused at stared at Min while blinking..

Min kicked his shin hard under the stool, trying to look pitiful at Jaejoong..

"Ouch!!" Yun yelped in pain and got what he meant.. "Oh.. yeah.. He.. We miss you.." he forced a smile to Jae and gritted his teeth on Min..

"Yah.. You don't have to act.." Jae narrowed his eyes on them and chuckled.. 

"Oh.. We got caught.. Forget what I said, Hyung.. I don't miss you anyway, just your food.." Min grinned..

"Aish.. You hit me hard.." Yun rubbed his pained shin..

Jae heaved a deep sigh of defeat.. He wants them to stay with them too, like before.. He miss them and this was one of his dreams.. 

"Okay.. You can stay here.." he smiled reassuringly..

HoMin blinked and stared at him..

"Jjinjja??" Yun asked in confirmation and looked at Min who's already grinning and giving him a I-told-you-he-will-let-us-stay-here..

"BUT!!" 

HoMin stared back at Jae, Min's grin disappeared.. 

"You have to follow my rules.." Jae said firmly.. 

"Rules??" Min asked and exchanged a confused look at Yun and the latter gave him a shrug..

"Oh.. Yoochun and Junsu knows few of my rules here when they stayed for one night.." 

"Ani.. We never had rules before when we're living together.." Min bickered.. 

"Yeah.. That was before.. But I am in a different situation now.. I have Jasmine here.. I don't want anyone bothering her.. Especially you.." Jae narrowed his eyes on Min..

"Ow.." HoMin said in unison as they got what he meant..

"You're just jealous because she chose me over you and you lose to Junsu Hyung.." Min smirked..

"Yah!! She didn't chose you!! Its her old list before.." Jae cleared his throat and drank his bottle of water..

* FLASHBACK *

"But Jasmine.. Among all of us, who is your favorite member.. Forget Jaejoong Hyung.." Yoochun asked with anticipation.. 

They were in the living room while having conversations about her, their past funny memories and having silly and nonsense talks just like before.. HoMinSu came back from the kitchen with foods and sat on the couch..

"Come on, Babe.. You can be honest.. Tell them the truth.." Jae said confidently and smirked at them.. He was lying on her lap on the carpet while her back was leaning against the corner of the couch.. He likes how she would chose sitting in the carpet rather than the couch..

"Really honest??" she stared at them and they nodded with wide smiles on their faces..

"So.. You can rank us any way you want.. From first, it would be no other than.." Chun gazed down at Jae expectantly..

"Changmin Oppa.." she honestly blurted out and stared at them.. 

"Oh?? Jjinjja??" Yun asked in disbelief while Chun laughed.. 

She bit her bottom lip and nodded..

"Oh yeah!!" Min grinned in victory and punched the air..

Min grasped Jae's ankles as he forcefully pulled him away from Jasmine's lap and sat between them..

"YAH!! Get away!!" Jae gritted his teeth as he stood and slid his body between them, back on her side..

Jasmine moved and give him a space while laughing, enjoying the time with them.. She blushed madly when he put his arms around her protectively.. Min slapped Jae's back..

"So what if she chose you over me?? I..I already knew that she will.. choose you anyway.. Second is not bad though.." Jae cleared his throat..

"But, Jae.. Second is.." she glanced at Chun then back to him.. "Yoochun Oppa.." she tried not to laugh at his reaction.. 

"Baby!!" he loosened his hug on her and straightened from his seat, staring at her in disbelief and confused..

YooMin stood up and hugged each other, patting each other's back while grinning and laughing victoriously.. 

"Ow..This is getting interesting.." Yun said amused and straightened from his seat..

"Who's the third, Jasmine-ah??" Su asked excitedly..

Jae gritted his teeth and slapped Su's shoulder while smiling nervously.. He had never thought that ranking them herself would be very nerve-wracking and distressful for him..

"Third.. Ahmm.. Yunho Oppa.." she bit her bottom lip and smiled..

"Assa!!" Yun gave YooMin a high five..

Yoochun, Changmin and Yunho burst out laughing as they stared at JaeSu.. They had never imagined that Jae will compete with Su for Jasmine's ranking of her favorite member.. Jae gulped nervously as he stared at her with wide eyes.. Su covered his face with his palms while laughing.. 

"Okay.. for the forth place.." Chun continued and stared at the JaeSu and Jasmine..

"Talang talang.. talang talang.." Min shook his hands up side by side..

HoSu heaved small laughs and staring at the three with anticipation..

"Be honest, Baby.. No.. Don't be too honest.." Jae gulped nervously and mumbled the last sentence.. 

"Honestly?? The truth??" she asked and all of them nodded with anticipation.. She bit her bottom lip as she stared at Su who's smiling cutely at her then to Jae who's sweating nervously and intently staring at her.. "Junsu Oppa.." she blurted out, very honest..

"Oh YEAH!!" Su clapped his hands and laughed.. "I feel so good.." he uttered between his laughs..

HoMinYooSu burst out laughing with Jasmine who's giving Jae an apologetic look..

"B-babe.. I can still accept that I lose to Changmin but..to JUNSU??!" Jae protested while pointing to Su.. His jaw dropped and stared at her in disbelief and dumbfounded, shocked even..

The five laughed harder at his statement..

"You've met your true rival, Jaejoong Hyung.." Chun said between his laughs while holding his stomach.. 

Jae laid on the side of the bed with her back facing her that night because of jealousy and exasperation.. But the moment when she hugged him from behind, reminding him who truly owns her heart completely, all the bad feelings that he felt suddenly vanished.. And they both know that they couldn't resist each other for long..

* END OF FLASHBACK *

Yun laughed at the memory and Min wickedly grinned..

"Yah!! Why are you laughing??" Jae snapped and gritted his teeth.. 

"Oh.. I'm.. I'm sorry.." Yun tried to stop his laughs while holding his stomach.. 

Jae cleared his throat and stared at them annoyed..

"Anyway, as I was saying before.. You have rules to follow.." Jae released a deep breathe.. "First,  don't let her do the house chores by herself.. She's stubborn sometimes and she will just tire herself by cleaning the whole house.. Help her even if she rejects it.." 

Yun was listening while Min nodded nonchalant..

"Why don't you just hire a maid for her, for both of you??" Min asked and rested his chin on his bended arm..

"We're used at living alone.. She's not used at giving orders to people when she can do it by herself.. Besides, ajumma goes here twice a week to clean the house.. Omma and my sisters are here often, too.." Jae stated..

"She must be bored here when you're not around.."

"Just allow her to work, Hyung.." Min added..

"She can't, right now.." Jae looked down at his bottle.. "I am grateful at how my fans accepted her but there are still sasaengs who keeps threatening her until now.. She knows but she never mentioned anything to me and I know she's scared.. That's why I don't want her to go alone outside.. She had experienced it once and I wont let it happen again.." he said seriously..

HoMin nodded with understanding.. Jae chuckled staring at the space as he realized how serious he can be when it comes to her safety..

"Second, DON'T touch her like the way I don't want her to be touched by other guys.."

"We know.." HoMin said in unison..

"Especially YOU!!" Jae glared at Min..

Min stuck his tongue out and grinned..

"Third, don't walk around here .."

"What?! Of course we won't be wandering around here .." Yun bickered, earning a laugh from Jae..

"It's just.. I am often here and she would freak out and play hide and seek with me.." he laughed shyly at the memory.. 

HoMin's jaw dropped, don't know whether to laugh or beat him..

Jae cleared his throat and put his serious face back..

"Anyway, forth, don't do anything to her that I may not like like making her cry.. If she cries then something is serious.. She never cry when I .." he said seriously..

"Why would we make her cry?? Tsk.. So many rules, eh??" Min heaved a deep sigh while staring at Jae..

"Lastly, dont go near our room especially at night.. She and us have our privacy there.. We have the whole house but now that you're staying here, we wont have that much of ours.." he deeply sighed in dismay.. "If you need something, knock on the door, araseo??" Jae intently stared at them..

"Seriously Hyung.. Just marry her.. You're already acting like a husband, more than that, actually.." Min exclaimed.. 

Jae gulped and looked behind them, warily examining if she was there somewhere.. He heaved a deep sigh and rubbed the back of his neck as a smile crept in his lips and eyes sparkled..

"Honestly, I am in the midst of it.." he said with a huge excited and nervous smile on his face from ear to ear..

"Oh??" Min blinked at stared at Jae with surprise.. 

"Woah.." Yun patted Jae's back..

"But I can't ask her right know.. I need to leave her for less than two years, I think, you know.. We need to enlist soon.. And I don't want her to be a lone wife afterwards.. As long as I want to right now.. Thinking of my enlistment and leaving her are making me back out my proposal.." Jae stated and face fell in sadness and anxiety..

"Oh.. The enlistment.." Min heaved a deep sigh and exchanged a look with Yun..

"Jeez.. Stop the drama.." Jae chuckled and decided to change the topic.. "By the way, there are still four vacant rooms here.. You can sleep wherever you want except for Jasmine's room before, infront of mine, and ours, of course.." he grinned.. "Ah!! There are two rooms next to the music room.. It would be better for us if you stay there and we upstairs.."

"Then, you're really letting us stay here??" Min asked excitedly.. 

"Yeah.. Jasmine will scold me and get mad if I kick you two out and let you stay somewhere uncomfortable.." Jae chuckled..

"Assa!!" Min stood up and ran out of the mini bar.. "Jaejoongie Hyung.." he stopped at the wall frame with shy and serious face.. "Gomawo.." 

YunJae chuckled as they watched Min disappeared in the mini bar.. Silence filled around them..

"So.. What are our plans now.." Jae broke the silence..

"We need to think more about it.. We have to consider our situations and people around us, our fans.. And.. Our contracts will end in less than a year, nine months to be exact.."

Jae heaved a deep sigh and bent his arms on the marble bar table, resting his chin above his arms..

"Nine months, huh.." he chuckled as he felt excited and nervous at their unsure and unpredictable future..

"Yeah..,Patience and timing is important right now.. It's not that long anyway.. We just need to wait for now.. Wait for the right time.." Yun rested his elbow on the bar table and chin on his palm, staring at the space as many thoughts and possibilities ran in his mind..

"You're right.. Not that long.. We can still wait until that right time comes.." Jae stared at Yun and smiled at each other..

Jae carefully closed the door and headed inside their room.. The lamp was on on the side of the bed.. He smiled when he saw Jasmine sleeping peacefully on their bed, wearing his dress shirt and hugging his pillow.. He started undressing himself and dropped his clothes on the floor until he's completely , not taking his eyes off of her.. He carefully slid himself under the blanket and sat next to her.. He carefully removed the pillow out of her arms and chuckled when he noticed that she's only wearing her underwear underneath..

"You really like torturing me, huh.. Aigo.." he murmured as he closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breathe, trying to calm and cool himself down..

He opened his eyes and stared at the space then back to her.. He laid next to her and carefully slid his arms under her head.. He reached the switch of the lamp and turned it off, rays of lights from the moon slipped through the curtains..

"I need to be more protective on you from now on.. Now that those two are around.." he chuckled, happy that things are slowly getting back to normal, he hoped.. He cupped her cheek and kissed her lips then to her forehead.. 

'Just wait a little more, Love.. Until everything is settled for you.. I will make everything forever for us.. I promise..' he said through his mind while resting his forehead against hers, like talking in her sleep, in her dreams.. He stills when she stirred on her sleep and cuddled on his chest.. 

"Hmm.." she hummed that seemed like her respond to him..

He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her and carefully pulled her closer.. He kissed the top of her head and joined her in her dreamland..
