The Next Step

Love Not at First Sight

Mei Hua POV:

"So, Zhou Mei Hua, will you accept 'more' with me, and be my wife?"

I clasped my hands over my mouth.

He's asking for me to marry him?

I felt tears stream from my eyes.

I remember as a child, I would have pretend weddings with my favorite bears, Theodore and Alice.

I had always visualized my wedding, from who I would invite to what cake would be served.

I struggled for words, before I let out a raspy reply.

"Yes."

I gave him my left hand and he took it.

Luhan slid the ring on my finger, and pressed my hand against his lips.

He lept up for joy, and embraced me close to him.

"You are now forever mine" he said as he gazed into my eyes.

Luhan cupped my face, and leaned in close.

His lips met mine.

As if on cue, fireworks of various color exploded and popped in the sky.

Although I've kissed Luhan many times, this kiss was sweet and was perfect.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and brought him closer.

I felt Luhans smile of happiness against my lips.

I couldn't help but smile with him.

Luhan, still attached to me, lifted me up bridal style and whisked me into the air and onto his shoulder.

"ZHOU MEI HUA IS GOING TO BE MY WIFE FOREVER!" he yelled out to sea.

"AND XI LUHAN WILL BE MINE FOREVER, MINE AND ONLY MINE!!!" I screamed into the cool air.

I was so happy.

I'm Alice, and Luhan's my Theodore.

We settled down and sat on the beach, as the fireworks continued to light up the sky and beach.

I rested my head on Luhan's shoulder and sighed with content.

He did the same.

Luahn sneakily wrapped his arm around me and pulled me into his lap.

He nestled his head into the side of my neck.

He then snuck a kiss.

I couldn't help but give him a quick peck too.

Then, suddenly something occured to me.

Who's setting off the fireworks?

I creeped behind the sand pile that was appearing to be setting off the fireworks.

"Ooh! Ah! That's hot!"

I saw Sehun lighting a new firework.

He ran toward me, with his ears covered, and eyes closed shut.

He squatted right next to me in my hiding spot.

The firework shot off.

Sehun opened his eyes again and removed his hands.

"Hello Sehun!" I greeted.

He glanced at me for a moment, and then at my hand.

"Noona, I accept you as my future sister-in-law!"

I laughed.

"Good to know!" I chuckled.

Sehun followed after me and Luhan as we walked towards the bungalows.

Luhan and I were walking with our arms around each other's waists, and we fit together perfectly like 2 puzzle pieces.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The airplane ride was rather quiet, because everyone didn't seem to get a good night's rest.

I know that I was too excited to sleep.

Basically, everyone dozed off on the short ride.

After security check, we all went for some BBQ.

We were a rather large group and took up 2 tables

Everyone place what meats they wanted on the the grill, leaving an aromatic smell in the air.

When one of my strips of beef was fully cooked, I stuck made a lettuce wrap, and fed Luhan.

"Say aah~" I cooed

He willingly opened his mouth.

Kris suddenly spoke.

"What's that shiny thing on your left hand?"

Kris being Kris, was wearing shades inside the restaurant.

It seemed as if he wasn't gonna bother taking off his sunglasses.

"Oh, I thought Luhan told you guys about it." I responded holding out my hand with the ring.

Xiumin made a grab for my hand, and examined the ring.

"Ooooh, shiny ring! It looks almost exactly like an engagement ri-" 

Xiumin stopped suddenly.

He gazed up, and his eyes flickered between Luhan and me.

He let go of my hand, and points a shaky hand at Luhan and me.

"You and you? E-e-engaged?" he managed to say.

Luhan wrapped his arm around me, and pulled me in, "Yup! Last night!"

There was a silence....

"Woah! Congrats dude!"

"I can't believe it!"

"I thought cool Kris would be the first to get married, but boy! I was wrong."

"How could you? You're gonna abandon us now?" Chen said faking a pout.

"WAIT!" Xiumin yelled out, " I had a sudden revelation! What if --just what if-- Mei Hua is pregnant and Luhan is marrying her to avoid scandal?"

Nearly everyone choked.

Kris, who was drinking some Coca-Cola gave almost everyone a nice blast of soda pop and saliva.

And Xiumin doesn't bother stopping there.

"I mean, think about it! We saw Luhan and Mei Hua in the same bed, and it was obvious that they were doing it!"

Xiumin recieves a nice whack to the back of his head from Kris.

Good going Kris!

"OW!~ Duizhang?!! That hurt!" he said rubbing the back of his head.

 

Lover's POV: (A/N: Well, guess who's back. Well, not really back, but guess who's making another appearance?)

I didn't expect their relationship to go this far.

I already knew that was a ring.

I had saw the whole thing.

My eyes were swollen from last night.

A man never cries, but he cries for love, doesn't he?

I wore my sunglasses to hide my swollen eyes.

Stupid Luhan.

Stupid, cheerful Luhan.

Mei Hua looks so happy though.....

I want her to be mine.

I took a large gulp of my drink.

I hated the fact that everyone was congratulating him and Mei Hua.

 

~At the SM Building~

 

Author POV:

A short young lady walked in.

Her heels clicked against the hardwood floor.

She clutched her imitation Gucci designer handbag.

The young lady adjusted her ridiculously short shorts.

She pulled her shirt's neckline even lower.

The room was filled with 20 or so people.

She walked up to an old ajhussi and handed him the application form, and arched her back slightly as she handed it to him.

The ajhussi grew short of breath as he unintentionally gazed down her shirt.

"P-please w-write y-y-your name on th-this, and p-p-proceed to the next r-room."

She leaned further towards him to grab the marker in front of him.

Sweat beads started to show on the ajhussi's forehead in the well air conditioned room, as she wrote her name on the sticker.

The young lady peeled the sticker and stuck it on her right , making a big show as she smoothed it with her fingers.

She strode into the next room, where auditioners were singing karaoke style, without the music, crazy dancing, and drinks.

People sang in different pitches, good and bad.

Soon it was the young lady's turn.

She and 9 other auditioners sang down the line, with herself being last

The lyrics showed on the screen and the young lady recognized it as SHINee's latest song 'Why So Serious?'

When it was her turn, she enunciated the words correctly, and sang with perfect pitch.

It seemed to be that all the other auditioners were awestruck.

The judges nodded in approval.

The young lady smirked with pride.

She proceeded to the next room.

Once again, there were 9 or so people in the room, all of them sporadically placed

A song began to play and she felt the rhythm flow through her.

The others were still getting the beat down.

It was 'Expectation' by Girl's Day.

She began to sway her hips, and swiftly her long legs.

Her hands traced her figure as the music continued.

By the time she was done, she hadn't sweated a single drop.

Everyone else were sweating and breathing heavily.

The young lady flipped her hair from her face, as if to show how much better she was from the others.

"We'll contact you all either via e-mail or telephone to let you know whether you've been excepted." the judges said.

People began to shuffle out of the room.

The young lady walked up to the judges.

"Thank you ajhussis, ajhummas." the young lady said bowing.

"No, thank you, Shim Yoonmi"
