*Jonghyun’s POV*

“KISS ME JONGHYUN!!!!”

I only ran faster, darting in and out of the other people walking along the sidewalk.

“Get away from me you lunatic!” I shouted over my shoulder, hurrying to get to the destination in mind before she caught me.

“Just kiss me and I’ll leave you alone!”

“No you won’t! You’ll probably me!”

“Ahhh you know me too well, baby!”

I was getting tired, but at this statement I somehow found the energy deep down in me and put on a burst of speed.

I ran into the apartment building and up the stairs, Vanessa close on my heels.

“You can run but you can’t hide my little dino!” she called after me as we flew up the stairs, two at a time.

When I got to the third floor I darted out of the stairwell and sprinted down the hallway until I came to room 398.

I slammed my fist repeatedly on the door.

“PLEASE COME OUT! PLEASE HELP ME! YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND!”

“I caught you…”

I turned around to see Vanessa walking slowly toward me, wearing the creepiest grin I’d ever seen.

“No running now!” she shouted as she pounced on me, shoving her lips against mine and grabbing hold of my arms. I was pinned between her and the wall next to the door.

“Let go!” I managed through my smothered lips.

Suddenly the door next to us flung open, and there stood our manager. I was ready to cry out of joy when I saw him.

“Get off of him!” The manager ripped Vanessa off of me, holding her back. “What the heck is wrong with you?!”

“I just wanted a kiss,” she said, that creepy smile greeting her creepy face once again. Yeah, the word ‘creepy’ really just summed her up.

“You’re coming with me,” the manager said, pulling her toward the stairs.

---------------------------------------

I waved as the taxi pulled away from the curb, putting on a sad face.

“Bye Vanessa!” I called in mock sorrow.

“I’ll wait for you Jonghyun…” she yelled out the window, her voice fading as the vehicle turned the corner.

“YES!!!!!” I shouted as soon as the taxi was out of sight. “THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!” I smothered our manager with a giant hug.

“Relax Jonghyun, it’s nothing that great. Now you don’t have a match, and we have to find you a replacement. Sorry about that psycho though. I didn’t believe how bad she was until I saw it with my own eyes. Thank you for putting up with her for the past few days,” our manager said, slipping out of my bear hug.

“No! You don’t have to find me another date!” I replied so fast that it took the manager a second to process what I said. I didn’t want to risk getting stuck with another psycho.

“Well, that means you’ll just have to associate with the other couples enough to practice your English. Okay?”

“Okay!” I smiled. I was willing to do ANYTHING. I was just glad to be rid of that monster.

“Gosh, I’ll never understand what it is about you guys that makes girls act that way. It’s like a disease,” the manager mumbled as he walked back into his apartment building.

I guess there is such a thing as being too perfect. Well, it’s not my fault I’m so amazing.

I just shrugged and headed back to the rental car I’d driven into town this morning.
