Just In Time

The Little Things [Discontinued Indefinitely]

 

 

[Yuri’s POV]

 

“Crap, where is she…” I grumbled under my breath, standing just outside Sooyoung’s hospital room.

 

She had just gotten out about 20 minutes ago, and was still unconscious, but I was surprised when the hospital staff told me that Jessica wasn’t here and I came to check up on her.

 

I stared at my phone intently, waiting for an answer from the ice princess.

 

“Come on Sica…” I continued mumbling to myself.

 

I was becoming anxious and I was tapping my heel on the ground. Nurses and doctors were surging past me with clipboards and trays.

 

The dank fumes were now getting to me. I really hated hospitals, and that was part of the reason I wanted Jessica to come so I could leave. Not that I didn’t care about Sooyoung, I just couldn’t stand being here.

 

The faded white walls were mocking and despite the color, or lack thereof, made the space appear larger, but instead made me feel more claustrophobic. I was seriously going crazy.

 

Finally pulling the last straw, I dialed her number. After a few tones, all I got was her voicemail.

 

Where could she be? Maybe she went out with Tiffany. I mean, everyone else was either at school or the dorm.

 

I was in such deep thought that I didn’t notice someone come up to me.

 

“Kwon Yuri?” A soft voice called me and I looked up to a nurse who was looking at me cautiously.

 

“Y-yes?“ I reply cautiously.

 

“Ah! I knew you looked familiar... how have you been?” she asked with some relief.

 

I studied her face a bit further and instantly recognized her.

 

“Oh... fine... thanks.” I reply awkwardly.

 

She smiled gently. “I haven’t seen you in awhile, what brings you back here?”

 

I scratched my head. “I was just checking up on a friend of mine.”

 

She nodded in understanding.

 

“Well don’t be a stranger... do stop by sometime.” she smiled before walking down the hall.

 

“Who’s that?” I hear another voice and I turn around to meet two familiar doe-eyes.

 

“Oh, Yoon, it was just... an old friend of mine.” I lied as smoothly as possible.

 

Yoona shrugged and sat down next to me, putting her hand on my knee to stop the nervous tapping of my heel.

 

“You okay Yul?” she asked softly, while observing me. I could only imagine what a nervous wreck I looked like.

 

I quickly tried to regain my mental composure and smiled. “Yeah I’m fine... I’m just waiting for this blonde-headed slow poke.” I explained referring to Jessica.

 

She giggled. “Well you know her, she never rushes for anything.”

 

I nodded. “True... but somehow I expected her to be different.” I sighed then realization hit me. “What are you doing here anyway?”

 

“I came looking for you of course... my class ended early and you weren’t at the dorm.” She replied casually, but I couldn’t help but notice the slightest hint of pink on her cheeks.

 

“Oh? Well if you missed me that much you should have just called me.” I playfully.

 

“I know, but hearing your voice wouldn’t be enough.” She played along, that shade of pink still on her cheeks.

 

I smirked, leaning closer to her. “Are you being truthful?” 

 

I expected some witty response, but instead she just stared at me with those round eyes.

 

“I think you know the answer to that.” She whispered barely audible.

 

“Miss Kwon?” A deep voice boomed between us and I jolted up and away from the girl quickly.

 

“Uh, y-yes? That’s me.” I answered.

 

It was the doctor. He cleard his throat awkwardly as he probably thought he was interrupting something.

 

“Well I just wanted to let you know that the sedative has worn off and Miss Choi has awakened.” He informed us and I nodded, thanking him.

 

I turned back to Yoona. “Aish, Jessica isn’t here yet...”

 

Yoona stood up and took my hand. “Well let’s go say hi and stall some time.” She suggested.

 

“Stall? Like how? Knock her out again?” I asked innocently which earned me a hard knock on the head.

 

“No you pabo! I meant preoccupy Soo until Sica-unnie gets here.” She explained.

 

I pouted and rubbed the red spot on my forehead. “I know, I was just kidding Yoong...”

 

‘That really hurt, aish...’ I thought and continued to rub my forehead.

 

She sighed and pulled my head towards her, pressing her lips lightly to my ‘wound’.

 

“There, better?” she asked.

 

I blushed a bit before nodding cutely.

 

“Okay then, so let’s go!” she grabbed my hand again and dragged me into the hospital room.

 

-------

 

[Jessica’s POV]

 

I felt her lips on mine. My eyes widened and my body froze. This strange sensation ripped through my body and I dropped my phone. So many thoughts rang through my head.

 

‘What was happening? Is she really kissing me right now? Why am I not moving away from it? In fact... now that I think about it, it kind of felt nice. No, what am I thinking?’

 

After snapping back to reality I pushed away and touched my lips.

 

“T-Tiff?” was all I could say as I was in shock.

 

Her hair was in front of her face as her gaze was to the floor.

 

After a brief moment of silence, it was then that I heard a stifled giggle. Tiffany raised her head and looked at me with her smiling eyes.

 

“Gotcha.” She giggled, sticking her tongue out at me.

 

“Wh-wha?” I was so confused about the situation I forgot about what I was doing prior to it.

 

“It’s my revenge.” She explained, still holding a playful grin.

 

“R-revenge?” I continued to question, still confused as my heart was slowly returning to a normal pace.

 

“For leaving me.” She pouted and that’s when I remembered Sooyoung.

 

“Ah! Right... S-sorry Tiff... I—“

 

“It’s fine.” She cut me off and began putting all the props and microphones away. “I already got my revenge.” She teased.

 

She noticed that I still hadn’t moved from my spot, she giggled. “Well you better hurry... she’s waiting.” She whispered the last part.

 

“O-okay... I’ll s-see you around then.” I hastily bid her farewell and grabbed my things before leaving the room.

 

I let out a breath that I’d been holding and lightly touched my lips; remembering the warm, tingle that lingered on them.

 

What kind of revenge was that?

 

I vigorously shook my head. I didn’t have time to over think things. She was just playing with me. Typical Tiffany. I thought and ran out of the building, hailing a taxi.

 

 

---At the Hospital---

[General POV]

 

Jessica threw money at the taxi driver, before bolting towards the large building.

 

“M-miss! Your change!” he called out, but she was already long gone.  He just scratched his head and shrugged before pulling away.

 

Jessica made her way to the front desk.

 

“E-excuse me.” She huffed out to the young lady at the desk. “I’m looking for...Choi Sooyoung...” she panted.

 

The woman gave her a strange look before giving her the directions. “She’s just on the fifth floor in B...” before she could finish, Jessica nodded and ran towards the elevators.

 

The woman just followed the strange girl with her eyes. “M-miss!” she tried calling out.

 

“The elevators are on the other side...” she finished her sentence to no one in particular before sighing and going back to her computer.

 

Sure enough, Jessica came surging back to the desk.

 

“Wh-where are the elevators?” she asked politely, trying to hide her embarrassment.

 

The woman giggled and pointed to her left. “They’re just around that corner.”

 

“Thanks.” Jessica bowed her head before heading off into the direction she was given.

 

Upon arrival she grimaced, as there was a large crowd in front of one elevator and a repairman on the other.

 

“Why is this happening?” she cried out loud, earning odd stares but she ignored them and looked to the stairs across the way.

 

“Fifth floor... I guess I don’t have a choice.” she groaned and swallowed hard before charging up the stairs.

 

On the third flight of the long staircase she began to pant heavily as sweat trickled down her face.

 

“Argh... I should have just... waited...HERE.” she panted, but still climbing up the endless flights.

 

“Why am I doing this?! I must be going crazy...” she continued to mumble under her heavy breath as she trudged her way up the stairs.

 

Never had she had such an adrenaline rush in her life. It was like her legs were on cruise control despite her mind’s heavy protest.

 

---Meanwhile---

 

Sooyoung was sitting up in the single bed, her knee securely wrapped in a brace and bandages.

 

“You okay Soo?” Yoona asked the tall girl who just nodded.

 

“Is Sica coming?” she asked for the nth time. Ever since she had awoken, she couldn’t stop thinking of that ice-princess. She felt both physically and emotionally tired, probably due to the drugs they had given her but wanted nothing more than to see her.

 

“She’s on her way... she probably got stuck in traffic or something...” Yoona explained, trying to think of excuses.

 

Sooyoung sighed and looked out the window. “I miss her...” she mindlessly mumbled.

 

“She’ll be here soon okay? Also, Yul should be back with some food soon.” Yoona tried her best to comfort the depressed girl.

 

“Sica... you broke the promise...” Sooyoung thought sadly.

 

Yoona just looked at her worriedly, and glanced at her watch nervously. 

 

'Unnie, where are you?' she bit her lip. 

 

Just then the door slammed open, which caused the two in the room to jump at the sudden

 

“I... made it!” she heard a familiar, soft tone of a certain ice-princess.

 

Sooyoung instantly turned towards the door and her eyes widened at the sight before her.

 

Jessica stood there with her hair disheveled, her face beet red and dampness spread throughout her body.

 

“S-sica?” Sooyoung asked a little baffled by the girl’s appearance.

 

Jessica didn’t answer and just took a seat before the tall girl and stared blankly at her for a few moments.

 

“I... didn’t break the... promise.” She panted before collapsing on the side of the bed.

 

Sooyoung’s eyes widened as she shook the blonde girl.

 

“SICA! SICA!” she called worriedly.

 

“Don’t worry, she just burnt herself out... she’ll be fine.” Yuri said, following behind, leaning on the doorframe, holding a sandwich and half-empty water bottle.

 

“Yuri? What happened?” Sooyoung asked, not removing her gaze from Jessica.

 

Yuri had an amused grin. “She ran here.”

 

“R-really? From where?” Yoona asked, just as baffled.

 

Yuri shrugged in response, throwing the sandwich towards Yoona.

 

“I don’t know, but it must have been some distance.”

 

“Wow.” Yoona commented and took a bite of the sandwich and locked eyes with Yuri.

 

Yuri gave her the signal to leave and Yoona nodded. 

 

“Well... we should leave you two be then... it’s good to see that you’re okay Soo. We’ll see you later.”

 

The two left, leaving them alone.

 

Sooyoung remained silent and just continued to stare at the girl, sleeping soundly on the side of her bed. A small smiled crept on her lips.

 

‘So you didn’t forget...’

 

She brushed her hand gently over Jessica’s messy hair.

 

‘You’re making it hard for me not to fall for you... Jessica Jung’

 

==============

 

Yoona and Yuri stood in the hall, waiting for the elevator when Yuri let out a small chuckle.

 

“What is it?” Yoona asked curiously.

 

Yuri shook her head. “That girl surprises me more and more everyday.”

 

Yoona tilted her head to the side. “What do you mean?”

 

Yuri turned to the younger girl. “I’ve never seen her rush for anything in the time I’ve known her.”

 

Yoona nodded in thought. “Now that you mention it, wasn’t her motto to ‘never run, not matter how late you are?”

 

Yuri smirked. “I guess Sooyoung is an exception.” 

 

The two began to giggle as they entered the elevator.
