*Brianna’s POV*

“Rebecca?!” I called again.

Where could she be?

Nobody had seen Rebecca or Onew all morning. We searched high and low for them, but didn’t find them anywhere. Finally I resorted to the only place left: the shed.

“Onew? Rebecca?” I called softly as I creaked open the door to the small building and slipped inside.

I saw something move out of the corner of my eye. I turned and was startled at what I saw.

“What happened here?!” I shouted, jerking Onew and Rebecca awake.

*Rebecca’s POV*

My eyes shot open at the sound of my sachon’s cry.

Where am I? What’s going on? Whose lap am I in?

I looked up to see Onew looking at me. He was just as surprised. Suddenly it all hit us at the same time.

“It’s not what it looks like!” “We didn’t do anything!” We shouted together, jumping up to our feet.

Brianna looked at us skeptically.

“I came out here because I was upset when I found out about Minho and Nicole. Onew just happened to be out here so he comforted me. I guess we fell asleep and-,”

“What did you find out about Minho and Nicole?” Brianna cut me off.

“Well, I walked into Nicole’s room since you told me Minho was up there, but I can tell you they weren’t fighting.”

“What were they doing then?”

“They were… in bed… together.”

Brianna’s eyes grew wide. “WHAT?!”

“It’s okay; I’m over it,” I said looking at the ground.

“But still! He cheated on you-,”

“It’s really fine Brianna. I don’t want to make a big deal about it.”

She gave me a concerned look, but refrained from saying any more.

“Well, Jonghyun’s new girlfriend Annie is going to be here in about an hour. You two should go wash up before she gets here,” Brianna directed, changing the subject.

“All right,” Onew hurried out of the shed; away from the awkward situation.

“Everything is really okay. I’m totally over the Minho thing, and Onew and I are friends again! If anything this turned out really well!” I said, walking along side my cousin, trying to comfort her.

“It doesn’t change his age though, sachon…”

I simply pretended I didn’t hear her remark.

*Jonghyun’s POV*

Tingles of excitement shot through my body while we all waited on the porch for Annie’s taxi. I was constantly moving; too excited to hold still.

“Relax Jonghyun,” Key rolled his eyes at me. “You’re acting crazier than Vanessa!”

This made me slow down a little bit, but I was still boiling of anticipation inside.

Finally I caught sight of the yellow vehicle coming up the driveway. I felt like I was about to die. I needed to see this beautiful girl again. I knew she’d just roll her eyes at my excitement, but I didn’t care. That was actually what I loved most about her: she didn’t get all boy-crazy. She had respect for herself. As much as I wish she’d just go weak at the knees and faint into my arms, I loved it.

The taxi pulled up in front of the mansion, finally coming to a stop. I hurried down the steps to open the door for her.

“Hello Annie!!!” I shouted as I took her hand and helped her out of the vehicle.

“Someone’s excited!” she laughed.

She wore an orange dress (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing?.out=jpg&size=l&tid=19698699), white sunglasses and a sunhat. Her nails her done to perfection; along with her makeup and long, blonde curls.

I kissed her hand –which smelled of sweet coconuts- before heading around to the back of the taxi to retrieve her luggage.

*Key’s POV*

Despite the warm sun beating down on me, my body went cold as the young girl stepped out of the car. I couldn’t believe my eyes. She looked so different, yet there was so doubt in my mind that it was her; the name was even right.

Out of all people…

“Everybody, this is Annie! Annie, this is Onew, Minho, Nicole, Taemin, Carolyn, Key, Rebecca, and Brianna,” Jonghyun said, gesturing toward each of us as he said our names.

When Jonghyun said my name, my worst fear came true. Her eyes didn’t leave mine as he continued introducing the others. We stared at each other, unable to believe what we were seeing.

Though we didn’t use words, we knew what the other was thinking: Don’t you DARE say a word!

“Let me show you to your room!” Jonghyun interrupted our telepathic message by taking Annie by the hand and dragging her into the house.

I felt Brianna slip her hand into mine.

“I’m so glad to see Jonghyun happy again,” she smiled as we turned to follow the crowd into the mansion.

“Yeah…” was all I could mumble.

“Are you okay?” she asked, concern written all over her face.

“What? Oh, yeah I’m fine,” I lied, kissing her on the cheek.

She smiled and wrapped her arms around my waist.

Why Annie? Why?
