♪ DBSK - Magic Castle

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is...
You

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeers click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
Ooh baby
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me...

24th december; Seoul

"hey karen, you sure?"
"yaah you've been at it for near.. two hours now. stop it! you sure you can take this much alcohol?"
"don't you need us to take you home?"
"do you even remember where you stay!"
"what if you meet someone bad out there!"
"girl, its near 12 midnight and its freaking snowing outside!"
"where are you going, you didn't even take your coat!"
"karen, karen! I say come back!"

...
all I remember was listening to the voices of my friends.
aish, what do they know.
I'm just this near.
so near to getting to see jaejoong's face.
stop railing you guys..
don't you know with all the sounds you're making,
you're driving jaejoong away.
he'll not come with all your railings.
and..
I was so near.

then my world went quiet.
the railings weren't heard anymore.

"hey there, wake up!"
I opened my eyes and saw an angelic figure right before my eyes.
this person looks incredibly familiar.
he resembles the person I have on my phone wallpaper.
that same face I've been staring at all the while on my room wall.
he bend forth,
seemingly bringing forth the rays that surround him.
does he have a halo?
is that beam around his head a halo?
he reached in front of my forehead.
and planted a soft kiss on it.
"wake up, princess."

I'm a princess.
his princess.
I  could feel myself grinning in my sleep as I thought to myself and forced my eyes open.
*blinks*

my vision took awhile to clear up to my surroundings which didn't look familiar at all.
that dream-like angelic figure is still there.
*blinks again*

I scratched my head and tried to process the situation I was in but to no avail.
why wouldn't he disappear,
I'm already awake.
aren't dreams supposed to stop when we wake up?
I reached for my eyes and rubbed them vigorously.
"if you're going to rub them any harder, they'd probably hurt alot."
how does he know that it'll hurt.

ouch, it really does.
he reached forth and placed his warm hand on mine.
his grip tightened gently and I could feel the body warmth from him flow through my body.
until it almost reached every single cell of me.
"you feel so cold, your hands. and stop rubbing your eyes to check if you're awake. you are."
he said in a gentle voice,
while removing my hands from my eyes,
not daring to speak loud.
its as if every decibel that was spoken by him carried a tinge and an ounce of concern.
worrying that he'd scare me.

"I'm.. awake?" I asked carefully,
in fear that I'm far too delirious to even tell between dreams and reality.
"yes. in your dreams, do I look so clear?"
he inched closer towards me till our faces were merely an inch apart.
and wrapped his arms gently around me to prevent me from falling right back to the bed.
this guy. is kim jaejoong?

I looked around at my surroundings and was shocked to find myself in a room I swear I have not seen for the whole of my life.
the furnishing around me looked like they were kept neat and tidy,
and I was tucked into a bed with grey covers over me.
there were a few photo frames here and there and even a huge layout banner hanging on the wall.
kim. jae. joong. he's even on the walls around me O_O.
I registered the face and the words into the depths of my cerebral hemisphere.

I shook myself awake mentally.
it can't be it can't be it can't be.
I tried to squeeze memories out of my head and tried to recall what had happened last night.

/flashback/
it was christmas eve and I was drinking for the first time in my friend's house.
the shots got heavier and heavier.
they were bitter when I first started off,
scorching my throat all the way down to my tummy.
and I could still feel the heat emitting within me.
I have to admit it wasn't all that comfortable at first.
but, well, for the festive atmosphere,
I've already turned 18,
so why not?

and as if I was heard by the inner voice within me,
every single shot of alcohol I took became bolder and heavier.
and within a matter of minutes,
the intial hesistant drink became a gulp.
coupled with the dizzying blast of music and the high-pitched talkings around me,
this is a great bang to start of christmas this year isn't it!
/flashback ends/

yes.. so I was drinking last night..
wait, firstly, I'd better shift away from this "person".
maybe I'm still having a hangover so that's why everyone I see is joongie from my dreams last night!
I wriggled away forcefully despite his forceful hold, trying to get up and freshen myself in a washroom.
or.. perhaps run away!
what if this is some imposter prying on young innocent girls like me..
I'm only 18!
my life can't be ruined by strangers, what if he's a prying on young girls!
I need to figure out a plan!

I came down hurriedly from the bed while "jaejoong" was trying to aid me in getting up and dashed to the nearest door I could see.
I looked back and saw him coming after me,
OH NO.
BANG
the pain started spreading over my forehead,
only was it that I realised that in a hurry to rush away,
I didn't notice the protuding part of the wall I bumped onto.

"hey you okay!" he shouted.
I didn't even bother to answer and dashed to the nearest door and went in.
when I did so,
I tightly turned the lock knob on the door and heaved a huge sigh of relief.
now I have to formulate an escape plan!
I mentally applauded my swift though clumsy actions and proceeded to rub my head.

"hey!" the voice rang through the door.
omo, what does this pest want!!!!
"hey, you okay? you don't have to be afraid of me! I'm not like, some baddie, I'm not going to do anything to you!"
yeh right...
I muttered in my head.
"I'm really not a bad person, I won't do wayward things to you! if it helps, I'm kim jaejoong. you know.. like the singer kim jaejoong? from dbsk and now in jyj? THAT kim jaejoong. that's weird! I didn't think anyone would not recognise me! would you come out and let me take a look at your head?" he said in a sincere tone.
"but which baddie would admit they're bad! you must've known my love for kim jaejoong since a long long time ago and that you know he's my idol. so you imposter, you're trying to get me to fall prey to your evil antics! I'm not some dumb fangirl okay! get your facts of me right, though you're smart and you know kim jaejoong is my only weakness, I, karen will not be tricked by your falsity!" I shouted back at him.
"Karen sshi, you're my fan?" I sensed a little joy in his tone, "then good! why do you fear me now! I'm kim jaejoong! so what are you doing inside, I said let me take a look at your head. you were dead drunk , you have no ability to take care of yourself so let me in! or you come out!!" even his voice sounds so much like joongie's.
"what do I have to do to prove to you that I really am kim jaejoong, karen sshi!"
the doorknob began turning.
"then tell me why did you kidnap me!" I said in a gradual softer tone.
"hello, miss! I was nice that I took in a drunk girl who was sleeping by the streets! all you muttered was 'joongie' so I figured I must have some affinity with you and took you home kindly, before some real evil baddie comes along! I don't even let girls into my house and I let you! and you're calling this kidnap??"

//recap//

"then tell me why did you kidnap me!" I said in a gradual softer tone.
"hello, miss! I was nice that I took in a drunk girl who was sleeping by the streets! all you muttered was 'joongie' so I figured I must have some affinity with you and took you home kindly, before some real evil baddie comes along! I don't even let girls into my house and I let you! and you're calling this kidnap??"

is it...
"but how would I know if you're really lying.."
"ahh, 정말 미치겠다! (jeongmal michigetta; I'm really going crazy) karen sshi, if you're never going to ever come out, it'll be impossible for you to know if I'm lying or not anyway! and what do you think you're doing. even if you want to escape, the only exit in the room you're in is the window, and we're at level twenty! just come out, I swear I won't hurt you!"
I resigned to fate and opened the door knob gently while closing my eyes tightly.
be it a damed fate or not,
this is the only way to find out.

when the door opened, "jaejoong" heaved a sigh of relief and went up to me,
slowly, for fear of giving me too much shock at once.
"karen sshi, open your eyes.. tell me who do you see."
"I.. see you.."
"yes, I see you too. no I mean, tell me who I am to you."
"you're.. kim jaejoong..?"
I registered the fact into my brain.
wait,
there's no reason that I'm dreaming again,
this person really is kim jaejoong.
he reached for my hands and placed it on his face.
"you do feel me right, karen sshi, it means you're not dreaming."

I gulped hardly in my throat.
I could feel the warmth on his cheeks and as I scrutinised closer,
I have to admit.
he really is kim jaejoong!
jaejoong began to wave his hand in front of me,
"can you see properly, karen sshi, the knock on your head didn't affect your vision right!"

I nodded and remained speechless.
so many thoughts were going through my highly confused head.
how did fate even let me meet jaejoong,
this wonderfully amazing guy.
and it must be me that's thinking so much,
but why do I think that beyond his gentle gazes,
there's definitely more to a stranger-to-stranger concern.

jaejoong's pov

karen, this girl in front of me.
after watching her sleep for one whole night,
and when she's finally awake now,
why does she look so much like an angel?
why do I have the sudden urge to treat her differently from other girls I've met.
she has such a four-dimensional personality,
and she doesn't put on a pretence to hide her self,
why do I find her cuteness so attractive.
and the sparkle in her eyes,
they seem to speak a thousand words.
if only I get to spend more time with her,
there'd be so many things I muster up courage to do.
fate has done the first job for me,
of bringing her into my life.
I've been seeing her in this neighbourhood for such a long time,
and she's always visiting her friend who stays three levels up.
its been.. near a year since she's been around.
from afar,
even her smile and laughter looks so endearing.
if she's going to leave soon,
how am I going to ask her to stay?
can I ask her to stay?
will she stay?
kim jaejoong, are you thinking a little too much?

end of jaejoong's pov

"jae..joong..sshi.." I managed to stutter out these few words and felt a flush of red rapidly creeping up my face.
"I'm sorry for everything earlier on, including taking you for a baddie.. I don't mean it. I was just scared.."
I retreated my hands from his face,
"thank you for taking me in for the night, thank you for not letting me wander outside in the streets! you're no different from what I've dreamt of kim jaejoong to be.. thank you, but I shouldn't impose on you for long, I'd better get going.."
I'd better get going in case I make a fool out of myself any further.
as if all that I've previously done is not enough to embarrass me in front of him,
my idol kim jaejoong.
I reached out for my coat hanging on the racks nearby and turned around.

"wait up, karen sshi.." he grabbed my wrist tightly, "can you.. stay a little longer?"
"huh..?!" I turned back to face him, "you.. asked me to stay?"
my heart was threatening to escape from the confines of my ribcage.
he gave a nod and ruffled his hair,
"I was wondering that since it's snowing outside, it'll be um, a little difficult for a girl like you to travel home alone. and you're having a fever! I cancelled my photoshoot to celebrate christmas but I don't have anyone to celebrate with me, so if you could stay a little longer, I've prepared some food.. unless you have to go celebrate christmas with someone else too.."

what is he saying!
why would I need to celebrate christmas with anyone else when he's right here by my side!
"...I don't have anyone.. to celebrate christmas with too." I looked up and our eyes met.
"really!!" he beamed, "actually karen sshi, I have something to say."
"if there's anything you can just tell me!" I smiled back at him.
"I've-been-noticing-you-around-this-neighbourhood-for-quite-awhile-already, and-I'm-really-glad-you're-here-today!" he uttered all at one go, seemingly like a rap.
it was also this very instant I saw a tinge of red glding across his face.
he's not joking right!
"you've been.. seing me around..?" I needed affirmation, to prove I'm not hallucinating!
"yes, but I didn't dare go up to you, the last time I did that was years ago, when the girl even took me for a weirdo. so I was wondering I'd wait for a chance, one opportunity, one day that we'd be able to meet. by fate. and I did!" he confessed.

"thank.. you jaejoong sshi, you.. I'm.."
"you can call me 'joongie', I quite like that nickname you've been uttering in your dream all night long!" he suggested with a big wide smile.
"joongie, you know what," I crept up to whisper into his ears, "last year's christmas, I made a wish to santa, and told him all I want for christmas is you.."
"really? what a coincidence, last year I told santa I did'nt need anything else and all I want for christmas is you too!" he poked fun.
"this is getting so cliched. hehe.." I chuckled.
"but you like it don't you?" he nudged me over and over.

I mustered enough courage placed my arms around his neck while he circled me in even closer, "yes, I like it."
