Time to go

I First Met Him in a Tree

 

Taemin stared at me in disbelief, and then he collapsed to my side.

I hear loud cries begin to form.

Why the hell did I decide to break-up with him now?

 

“F-for once I get the c-courage to be f-forceful… and more m-manly than usual… but you bring me down a-anyways… I planned to stay strong… if we ever decided to go our s-separate ways, but I don’t know why I’m acting like such a baby right now.” Taemin said, gasping in between and weeping at the same time.

All the guilt that has been piling up on me has finally exploded.

I warmly soothed down his back. We were in a really un-comfortable position. He was basically lying on top of me.

 

Taemin properly sat up, allowing me to sit down. “Breaking up with you had nothing to do with what you just did. I was just, overwhelmed, that’s all…” I look up to see if he was convinced.

 

He stopped crying.

 

“Does that mean you still love me?”

 

I itch at my hair. “Not necessarily. You see Taemin, I love someone else…”

 

“Is it Key?” His eyes get watery.

 

“No, it is not, I can confirm that,” I reply.

 

“Then why did you go out with me?” He sniffles.

 

I don’t answer him.

Taemin gets himself together, and straightens his back.

 

“Minji, I love you.”

 

He stopped calling me Noona.

 

“And I will make you fall for me.”

 

“Why? I lied to you this whole time.” My guilty soul tells him.

 

“Everyone has a reason for something, and I’m sure you had yours.

I know you Minji, you are a charming girl that is honest at the right times. You might have some bad in you, but I can tell you mean well,” Taemin tells me.

 

He really just hit my heart where it hurt the most. This person was astonishingly bright. When did he get so empathetic?

 

“Uhm…” A voice mutters behind me.

 

I swivel my head, and find Onew staring at us.

How long has he been there?

 

I get up, leaving Taemin, and softly pushing Onew out of my way. My feet shuffle to my room, where I find Key sleeping already. The lights were still on. I shut them off, then switching on the night light. My body gets itself into the bed, making sure it doesn’t touch Key at all. I made sure the divider was still there, and then I shut my eyes.

 

So many perplexing thoughts infiltrated my brain. Where was I going to start?

 

I went back in my head, trying to capture what just happened.

 

We played Truth or Dare.

Key picked Truth but then switched to Dare.

Jonghyun made him kiss me.

I didn’t have any strength to push him away.

Key kissed me.

And I liked it?

My head got suddenly very confused.

I went to Onew and Taemin for comfort.

Both guys rejected me.

Minho consoled me.

Everyone left but Taemin.

Then Taemin told me he would make me fall for him.

Then I found out Onew was watching our conversation.

Then I left the room.

And now here I am.

 

My summary was really bad, but it did help my brain process everything.

Do I ing like Kim Kibum?

No; definitely not.

I still love Onew.

But, that kiss with Key…

 

“Aish!” I screamed in bewilderment.

 

Thinking was so frustrating.

 

Maybe I just liked the kiss, not Key.

That made sense.

 

If I were to kiss anyone else like that, it won’t mean I like them.

 

Right?

 

Maybe I should test that theory tomorrow.

 

My mind slowly started to shut down.

I was extremely tired.

 

Time to sleep~

 

Key’s p.o.v

 

“Urghh…” I moved to my other side.

Something heavy was on me.

And the morning light was hurting my eyelids.

 

This was not how the Almighty Key should wake up.

 

“Aigoo!”

 

In aggravation, I sat up-right, and opened my eyes.

“Uhn…” A voice below me spoke.

 

I find Minji, her head on my freaking lap.

I look around and see the pillow divider on the floor.

 

.

 

She restlessly shifted her head, making my legs un-able to do anything.

What to do in a situation like this?

My hand reaches for my cell phone on the bedside table.

 

Got it.

 

I checked the time.

 

7:30 in the morning?

 

I sighed, and put the phone down.

Really, it was going to be hard to call anyone right now.

“Nuhnn…” Minji grumbled, tilting her head again. This time her face was up-ward.

 

I stared at it.

What else was there to do?

 

She might not be very pretty, but her skin was really clear.

I pushed off the strands of hair on her face.

 

“Onew…” Minji mumbled in her sleep.

What kind of dream could a girl like her be having?

 

I’m a really impatient person.

 

My fingers leisurely lifted her head on to a pillow. Then I quietly got out of the bed.

 

“Gaah!” Something forceful pulled me back on to the bed.

“Onew…” She whispered again.

 

Really?

 

I lay motionless below her. She crawled up to me, placing her lips on my cheek.

.

 

Luckily, she passed back out on my shoulder.

Thank Goodness she didn’t go any further.

I bet Minji was still asleep.

 

My eyelids got heavy.

Need…Sleep…

 

Minji’s p.o.v

 

“Ughrhhh,” I grumbled. Something stiff was under me.

I lazily lifted my head and opened my eyes.

 

As I predicted, I find Key’s sleeping face.

 “Yah!” I yelled, waking him up.

Then I speedily got off his body.

 

“Why the were you under me?” I asked; arms on my hips.

 

“Well it was your fault for freaking attacking me in your sleep.” He responded, ruffling his hair.

 

My face turned a deep red. So that dream I was having of Onew was half real?

 

“Whatever.”

 

I looked at my alarm clock. It was 10:30 am.

“Heeey…” I softly said to Key.

 

He fully opened his half-asleep eyes. “What?”

 

“Do you want to help me make breakfast?”

 

Key’s p.o.v

 

“Fine.” I can’t help giving in to the temptation to cook.

 

“Come on!” She grabbed my arm, tugging me in to the kitchen. Everyone seems to still be sleeping.

 

“I’ll cook the omelets and boiled eggs. You can prepare the soup and vegetables.” I hear her say while struggling to put on her apron.

 

Nodding, I tie the neck string for her apron, and I help her tie her hair up.

“Uhm…Thanks…” Minji says. I see her ears turn pink from behind.

 

“No problem.” I go to the fridge to begin. We cook in a beautiful silence. No arguing or anything. When we run in to each other on the stove, we manage to know how to share it.

 

After a while, we finished making all the food. Together, still in a calm atmosphere, we set up the dishes on the large dining table.

 

“Do you want to scare the others to wake them up?” Minji asks me, a mischievous grin on her face.

 

“It’d be my pleasure.”

 

Jonghyun’s p.o.v

"WHAT THE- AAAH!" I heard a scream in one of the other rooms. It sounded like Taemin.

"Quiet down...GAHHAHAA!" A large thump sound echoed from the other room. I guess Onew fell down.

Ugh, they were so noisy...

 

“WHAT THE !?!?” I springed up to my feet, scared of the things in front of me. They were wearing terrifying masks, and long dark coats.

“Seriously, shut u- AGHURHHH!” Minho threw a pillow at one of the things. Then he fell to the floor.

 

“Pffffft.” One of the creatures snorted.

“Pffffft.” The other grunted.

 

 

Hey, those voices sounded familiar…

 

“AhahHAHAhahaHAHAHAHahahahhaHAHa” Both persons cackled in a huge amount of laughter. Minji and Key lifted the masks off their faces.

 

“Oh gosh… Your faces…And how you fell…” Minji said, panting for air in between.

 

“YOU GUYS SCARED THE FREAKING HELL OUT OF ME!” I shouted. They calmed down their laughter.

 

“Mission success!” Key did a high-five at Minji, and they smiled widely at each other.

 

“So why did you have to wake us up like that?” Minho asked.

 

 

“It’s time for breakfast.” Minji said, leaving the room with Key.

 

 

My heart was still beating from the scare.

 

Minji’s p.o.v

 

Me and Key changed our clothes, and then sat down at opposite sides of the table.

Surprisingly, Taemin was the first to come out.

“Are we having pancakes or ice cream for breakfast?” He asked.

“Sorry, we can’t have sweets this early. Just deal with the food we have now.” I tell him.

 

“O-okay Minji…” He sits far away from me.

 

The others came out and sat down with us. Jonghyun was still fairly mad.

This is how we were sitting down:

 

                Key

Taemin   |      |  Jonghyun

Minho     |___|   Onew

                Me

 

“Sorry I ignored you yesterday.” Onew whispers to me.

“It’s okay.”

 

We start eating, passing and taking food from the plates.

 

Pretty soon, we all finish.

 

“Who cooked? The food was delicious!” Jonghyun said, light-hearted once again.

“It was Key and Minji.” Taemin told Jonghyun.

“How did you know?” I ask him.

 

“Since I’ve tasted you’re guy’s styles of cooking already; I can distinguish who made the food.” Taemin replies.

 

Taemin was really smart.

 

“Okay, since me and Minji already cooked, who is going to clean up?” Key questions everyone.

 

No one answers. Taemin glances at me.

 

“Me and Onew will clean everything up.” Taemin says.

 

Onew starts whining, but Taemin bribes him with a payment of chicken later on.

He jumps giddily, excited for his favorite food.

 

Onew was really adorable sometimes.

 

I smiled looking at him, and then went off to watch some television.

Minho was in control of the remote, browsing through the channels.

Key was texting on his phone, and Jonghyun was making random corny jokes.

It’s really sad because no one laughed but Onew. (Onew would also join in on the jokes at times. They could really start a comedy show or something.)

 

Here’s how it went:

 

Jonghyun to Onew: Someone said you sounded like an Owl.

Onew: Who?

--

Jonghyun: What did the lawyer name his daughter?

-No one answers this one-

Jonghyun: Sue!

--

Onew: Oooh! I have one. What did the pony say when it had a sore throat?

Jonghyun: What?

Onew: I apologize, I am a little horse!

--

Jonghyun: Why did the seagull fly over the sea?

Onew: W-why? *to busy cleaning the table to answer correctly

Jonghyun: Because if it flew over the bay it would be a bagel!

--

Jonghyun: What lights up a soccer stadium?

Minho asks out of curiosity (he is a sports person): What?

Onew and Jonghyun at the same time: A soccer match!

--

Onew: What did the mayonnaise say when someone opened the refrigerator door?

Jonghyun: What?

Onew: Close the door! I am dressing!

--

Key smacked Jonghyun and Onew. I guess he was starting to get annoyed.

“Okay, I’ll stop with the jokes! Just a few more,” Jonghyun tells Key.

Key, Taemin, and Minho all sigh.

--

Jonghyun: What do you call a shoe made from a banana?

Onew: What?

Jonghyun: A slipper!

--

Onew to Jonghyun: Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon?

Jonghyun: No, I haven’t. How was it?

Onew: Great food, but no atmosphere.

 

Jonghyun and Onew laughed hysterically, as they always would in between jokes.

“Finally, finished cleaning! Now I don’t have to hear anymore of this nonsense!” Taemin said, throwing down the cleaning rag. He ran to his room.

Onew and Jonghyun calmed down.

 

Key left and followed Taemin.

 

Taemin’s p.o.v

 

I think Key is starting to rub off on me; the two dummies over there were starting to irritate me.

 

“Taeminnie?” I see Key enter the room.

 

“Hyung, what is it?”

 

“Umm, you don’t hate me right?” He asks, twiddling his fingers.

 

“Just a little bit,” I tell him.

 

“Please don’t…” Key says.

 

“But you enjoyed kissing my girlfr- I mean, ex-girlfriend. And you even slept with her!” I cross my arms.

 

“I promised you I wouldn’t like her no matter what. And- wait, ex-girlfriend?” He looks at me.

 

“We broke-up.”

 

“When are you planning to tell the others?” Key asks.

 

“Maybe now.”

 

I ran off, in to the living room. “M-Minho, Onew, J-Jonghyun,” I choke out. My palms suddenly got all sweaty, and my throat began to hurt.

“Are you okay Taemin?” Minji asks me.

I nod, but the anxiety was getting to my head.

 

“I broke up with Minji.” I stopped calling her Noona because I felt un-manly when I do.

 

Onew lifted his head up. “Is that why you were crying last night?”

 

Darn Onew and his loud mouth.

 

“Uh-uhm…” I stammer.

 

Minho and Jonghyun eye me cautiously.

 

“Guys, stop making him nervous.” Minji says, pulling me to her side.

She saved me.

 

“Who initiated the break-up?” Jonghyun curiously asked.

 

“Now, don’t me nosy Jjong,” Onew said, lightly punching Jonghyun’s arm.

 

“Guys, let’s go. It’s already 2pm and I want to go shopping!” Key pops up from behind the couch.

 

“Alright…” All the guys get up from the couch.

 

We all go into a room/ bathroom, either changing our clothes or packing our things.

 

I change back in to my old garments that have dried from the rain. When I leave the room, everything is set.

 

“Well it was nice seeing you Minji,” Onew says.

“Let’s meet up sometime again,” Minho suggests.

“Bye,” Jonghyun farewells.

Key doesn’t say anything, he just looks away.

“See you soon,” I utter to her.

 

She creased her eyebrows at what I said.

 

“Bye guys,” Minji pushes us out the door, and throws our bags out with us.

She then proceeds to heavily slam the door shut.

 

Minji’s p.o.v

 

Damn it, I didn’t get to test my kissing theory.

 

At least the last few hours were amusing.

 

It’s been a while since I had that much fun or stress build up on me.

Extra:

~~Minji’s dream~

 

Where the hell am I?

I looked around, finding nothing but white.

Everything was fuzzy.

 

But soon something came in to view.

I ran to it.

Suddenly, I find myself in a room with a bed.

 

Did I know this bedroom?

I couldn’t grasp my thoughts, it was all familiar somehow.

 

“Minji…”

I turned my head at the voice.

 

“Onew…”

I follow his voice, and I pulled him on to the bed.

“Onew…”

I placed a soft kiss on his cheek. He put his hand on my back and smiled.

 

What was I doing?

 

I couldn’t control myself at all.

I put a kiss on his forehead, trailing down to his slightly shaped abs.

 

Somehow, his shirt was suddenly gone.

“Minji…”

 

He put my head back to his face, and I repeatedly kissed him again on the lips.

“Minji…”

 

I opened my eyes, and find Key looking at me.

What happened to Onew?

 

“What…” He pulled me down to his chest, and I heard his heart. It was beating dramatically.

 

“Noona…” I looked up again, and this time Taemin was there.

 

Then everything flashed a bit, and now Minho was in front of me.

 

“Don’t worry. Everything will make sense later on…” He says. Haven’t I heard that before?

 

Suddenly, a dinosaur barged in front of me. What a jerk he was.

 

Poof.

 

Everything disappeared, and I find myself on top of Onew again.

Wait, what just happened?

 

“I truly love you too, but I can’t go out with you.”

 

~Minji begins to wake up from her dream~
