The rose petals and candles in her bedroom could only be a prank of Emelia among the ladies, which makes Hannah sure of that Carolina has brought SNSD with her (SNSD is also creative). With a grimace she reads the note telling her to turn around; she will scream and punch whoever is playing with her, and if anyone tries to scare her she will not hesitate to throw her fist (not in the face, of course). Her day has gone so great, and then it ends like this…

Prepared for whoever wants to fool her, Hannah turns around like the note tells her, prepared to have a group of silly faces by the door or someone wearing a Scream mask or whatever to frighten her, but that is so wrong.

Hannah’s heart skips several beats and her eyes widen in surprise when seeing a bouquet of red roses held below a face that steps out from the dark behind the door. A pair of puppy eyes are looking up at her with the warmest gaze and Hannah finds her self laughing when realising he was hiding behind the door when she was being suspicious.

“Happy birthday,” Jonghyun says and just to hear his voice, Hannah laughs again behind her hand. She is in shock, but at the same time she feels relaxed that it is not a prank and stupid for all her thoughts and ideas and imagination.

“You lied to me!” is the only thing she can come up to say. He said he couldn’t meet because of a recording! She can’t believe he lied to her; to spread rose petals all over her bedroom?

But she can’t stop smiling when looking at him. He has his head over the roses as if he smells them, and his eyes don’t look away from her with that warm and loving gaze. He has dressed up in a fancy white shirt and light blue washed jeans, the whole outfits sits perfectly fine on his body and she can see he has simply styled his blonde hair. She imagines him looking in her mirror and styling it the minutes before hearing her arrive. He is lovely.

“I did lie; for a pretty good reason. It wouldn’t be a surprise if I didn’t to it like this, right?” Jonghyun looks so proud to have surprised her and to see her smile lasting and her eyes glimmering he knows he has done a super great job. He reaches out the bouquet of roses to her. “It’s a little late, but happy birthday, Nabi.”

Hannah giggles when she accepts it with both hands, bringing the flowers to her nose, both to smell them and to hide her blushing face. It is a huge bouquet.

“Twenty-one roses,” Jonghyun boasts, as if he read her mind about the bouquet. He leans a little forward when telling her that. “One for each year I wish I had known you.”

He smiles when seeing the colour of her cheek change, and he uses the length of his fingers to touch her warm cheek.

“The roses match you perfectly,” he whispers, making her blush even more. Why does he have to be such a romantic guy at times? Hannah feels so embarrassed with it. Jonghyun keeps smiling widely at her, even reaching over to plant a kiss on her cheek before guiding her to stand next to the bed and Hannah is looking up from the roses that she keeps hiding her face behind when Jonghyun reaches by next to her to pick something up from her bedside table behind her. Hannah takes a glance in her room when he does that, smiling softly at all the candles he has brought to her room; did he buy them himself or did he borrow from Maria?

“Where did you get the candles from?”

“My sister helped me,” Jonghyun answers and his smile is big and white when he stands straight in front of her, and she is smiling when looking in his eyes. He looks happy, she is happy. “I wasn’t sure if you would like this kind of a surprise, but she told me to go for it and helped to buy me the candles and roses from what I told her.”

“You should thank her,” Hannah mumbles shyly and she giggles when he shines up even more; it means he has succeeded.

Jonghyun’s mouth twitches a bit from smiling when he lifts up what he is holding in his left hand; a black gift box. Hannah hadn’t seen it as she was holding the bouquet in the way and was too focused to look him in the eyes, but now when seeing it she glances from the box to his face and back down. Jonghyun takes the bouquet to place it on her bed when handing her the box instead, and he sees her worried face-expression when she holds it in her hands. One hand holding the bottom and the other lifts up the lid, and while she does that, Jonghyun barely blinks while admiring her face, looking forward to see how it changes when she peeks inside the box before removing the lid completely. opens in surprise and she looks up at Jonghyun, seeing his intense gaze at her. His gaze makes her speechless and all dry, her insides turns when he throws down the lid on the bed and they are both looking down in the box when he lifts up an expensive-looking exquisite red watch.

Hannah isn’t a big fan of watches, but this one looks so nice that she is stunned once again. Her eyes are stuck on the watch when Jonghyun puts it around her left wrist, her skin gets warm by his touch and she holds the rest of the box in her right hand.

How is she supposed to react? Does he expect a big reaction for this surprise? Hannah never know how to react, but she loves the watch, she loves the roses, she loves how he glances at her with that handsome face of his while putting on the watch and she even loves that he lied to her just to give her this surprise.

She is giggling when he has put the watch on her wrist and he caresses his fingers up her arm, touching her skin while looking at the watch.

“Perfect,” he whispers and Hannah giggles again at how beautiful his voice is, not knowing that his eyes are on her face.

“Thank you,” she whispers, her eyes on the watch. “I love it.”

“I knew you would,” Jonghyun says with his voice deep in his throat and Hannah looks up, smiling when Jonghyun puts his hands on her face to kiss her.

Has it really been two weeks since they met last time? He both kisses the same and tastes the same as she remembers, everything about him is familiar and warm and she feels safe with him. Jonghyun chuckles when noticing she can’t stop smiling while they are kissing and he puts his arm around her neck to deepen the kiss, warmly embracing her and he really likes to hear her giggle in his arms.

“I want to do something,” Jonghyun whispers against her lips, and from the warm embrace she is suddenly left in the after-heat from his body when he moves away. Hannah looks disappointed after him, seeing him turn on the lamp in the ceiling and go over to his bag behind the door where he picks up something.

“Are you serious?” she asks with a light laugh when he steps up to her with a Polaroid camera in his hand.

“Deadly serious,” Jonghyun answers in a low voice and stares in to her eyes, walking right up to her so their bodies almost touch and he makes her laugh again. He smiles warmly at her. “I have prepared everything, haven’t I? I want to take pictures with my phone too.”

Hannah rolls her eyes when he doesn’t see and then she smiles at him when he holds up the Polaroid with one hand. She giggles when he rests his forehead against hers and he smiles when seeing her start to laugh by how he has even thought of how to pose. He wants them to face each other, look at each other and have the picture taken from their side.

“My watch won’t be seen,” Hannah comments, as the watch is on her left side and the camera on her right.

“Doesn’t matter, it’s our faces it focuses on,” Jonghyun shakes his head, still looking fiercely at her. “My jawline looks the best from this side too.”

“Your jawline looks the best in all angles,” Hannah comments and she giggles shyly when he smiles widely at her compliment.

“I’ll remember that,” he assures her, giving her a peck on her lips before asking if she is ready. “Look at me.”

Hannah looks up at Jonghyun, smiling and feeling so awkward with their foreheads touching and Jonghyun glancing to make sure the Polaroid will take a good picture of them. She can’t stop smiling!

When he finally takes the picture, he takes the card that comes out from it with his other hand and Hannah smiles at how he is fanning it for the picture to come out. Jonghyun glances at her and smiles.

“You look very pretty when you blush,” he comments and out of the randomness of him to say those words Hannah just looks away, automatically blushing too of course. She can hear him chuckle at her reaction, a chuckle that shows he likes it and she smiles back at him.

The picture turned out good, and Jonghyun is smiling widely for all of his teeth to be shown, lifting his hand up to see the picture in a better light. Hannah giggles to see how proud he is over a picture; but then again, after five years, she knows him too well to not be surprised by it. Jonghyun loves to take pictures.

And that is what they do; taking pictures. With his cell phone they continue to take pictures, doing this facial expression and then doing that, copying each other or just looking weird; showing off Hannah’s new watch, both of them looking pretty with the bouquet of roses (a lot of pictures of the bouquet actually, two with the Polaroid as well) and also one of Hannah happily hugging him; she has longed to hug him.

 

“Have you been dressed like that all day?” Hannah wonders when they are lying on the bed; she is lying on her stomach, holding her upper-body up with her arms and going through the pictures on Jonghyun’s cell phone that they just have taken. All of the candles beside from the one on the bedside table have been blown out. Jonghyun is lying next to her, one leg over her body just because he can.

“I dressed up for you,” he charmingly tells her with a smile, getting closer when putting his arm around her shoulders so he can whisper in her ear. “I know how you love this style; it was either this, or lying on your bed with the roses between my legs. But I thought it would be more romantic if I was fully dressed; and I could focus on giving you your birthday gift.”

He is smiling widely when she lowers her head shyly a bit when he mentions the part. “You gave it a lot of thought, I hear,” Hannah jokes. Jonghyun laughs in agreement, his arms falling down to her back and Hannah gives out a sudden laugh when he tickles her. She shouts his name and pushes him away, both of them laughing. “By the way; you told Maria what you were going to do?”

“Of course; she even stayed to keep a watch on when you arrived instead of going with Julia to get some snacks,” Jonghyun looks proud. She knows he is extremely satisfied with the surprise event. He lies on his side, resting his head on his arm and smiling widely at her. “Emelia even told me to send a description of your face when you realise what a great surprise it is.”

“Emelia knew?!” Hannah is shocked again, making Jonghyun laugh. “I talked to her on the way here: she didn’t seem to have a clue about it.” Everyone lies to her today!

“Maybe you aren’t the only actress here then,” he teases with a giggle before leaning over to kiss her. “I have to go soon.”

“You’re not staying?” Hannah pouts. She was so sure he was going to stay after doing all this.

Jonghyun smiles and puts his arm around her to pull her in for a hug, kissing her hair. “I’m not going – I just wanted to see your reaction,” he admits and Hannah whines when pulling away from him, sitting up tailor in the bed and hits him lightly on the arm, telling him off when he laughs.

“That’s not nice,” she whines and hits him again. Jonghyun just laughs.

“You got no idea of how adorable you are,” he tells her and lies there to look at her. Hannah grimaces out of embarrassment for his sudden comment and hits him for a third time, blushing. He laughs again, enjoying her cuteness, but the moment Hannah gets out of bed his face changes and he asks where she is going; she heads towards the door.

“Downstairs,” Hannah answers and reaches her tongue out at him when she opens the door.

Jonghyun smiles and hurries out of bed to run after her, and it is heavenly when he hears Hannah laugh as she runs away when seeing he is coming. He grabs her arm before she reaches the stairs, pulling her in his arm and with his hand he grabs her chin to kiss her on the lips. Hannah giggles and takes a hold of his shirt, so when she backs to the side, he follows. She leans against the doorframe to the play room to have something to relax against when she puts her arms around his neck to deepen the kiss, which Jonghyun gladly do with a smile. She bites on to his full lower lip, smiling up at Jonghyun whose eyes darken.

“Let’s go back to bed,” he suggest in a low voice when she lets go of his lip, his arms wrapped around her. Hannah just laughs and pulls him down the stairs. “The sofa then?” he jokes, “or the kitchen…?”

“Sssh,” Hannah hits his arm that is still around her. They struggle down the stairs because Jonghyun won’t let her go even if he is walking behind her. He keeps smiling when they come downstairs, hugging her and kisses her on the cheek. He can’t stop laughing quietly when they step inside the living-room and see both Maria and Julia in there in each sofa; Maria looks as comfortable lying in her sofa as she did when Hannah came and Julia is sitting in the sofa against the wall, combing Ryo’s fur with him lying on a towel in the sofa with her and Michin is stretching out comfortably on the floor, sleeping with his paws in the air. Ace is lying by Maria’s feet now.

“Hi-hi,” Maria giggles girly when spotting the couple, “Did you like it? Did we prepare it well?”

“You both prepared it?” Hannah wonders, glancing up at Jonghyun who smiles and shakes his head, only letting go of her when they are taking a seat in the third sofa between the other two.

Maria looks shocked when seeing Jonghyun’s response; she even gives out a sound that says that isn’t completely true. “Jonghyun wanted to put candles in your bed – in your bed!”

“It would be much more romantic if it was like that,” Jonghyun tells Hannah warmly.

“Yeah, beside from that her whole room would be on fire by time she came to the door,” Maria rolls her eyes at him, and then looks at Hannah. “I saved your room from a disaster and I perfected the event. Now I am still waiting to know if you liked it or not.”

“She loved it,” Jonghyun proudly answers and puts two arms around Hannah, kissing her tightly on the cheek while Hannah just giggles. He loves to see how she pulls up her knees to put her feet on the end of the sofa-seat when he does that.

Hannah shows her wrist for Maria. “I got this. Pretty, isn’t it?” she proudly shows it off, and Jonghyun is smiling his brightest to know that she does love the present.

Even Julia turns around to see the watch, and then looks impressed when asking to see it closely. Hannah doesn’t take it off, instead she gets up to lean over for Julia to see it, and then Maria, and Jonghyun just sits there with his back leaned against the backrest and when Hannah sits back down, he takes his hand on her back. The girls have started to talk about Julia’s day; or Julia has started to talk about it. Complimenting Hannah’s watch, she brought up that Kim Hyun Joong from Barefood Friends had a really good watch on his wrist and then she started to talk about her and Carolina’s day.

Hannah is smiling, biting her lip and trying to now show her stiff she is when feeling Jonghyun’s hand on her back. She is trying to listen to Julia, but that hand lightly going up and down her lower back surely is distracting. Jonghyun gets in his own world too, not interested in Julia talking about her day as he did hear a bit of it earlier when waiting for Hannah to come and before Julia had gone to buy snacks; instead he is admiring Hannah’s back. How can a woman have such an admiring body? Every single inch of her body is admiring, something he can look at for hours and days without getting bored.

It takes minutes before Hannah shifts her position; she reaches her hand behind her back to take her fingers around Jonghyun’s hand to put it away when she leans back, and he just is so entertained to know she does it when being sure no one else is looking. She leans against his arm and holds his hand in hers, talking with her ladies while the TV is showing some movie without any sound. No one is watching the movie as the ladies are taking turns telling about their day. Maria entertains everyone when she gets up to show the cool dance moves for her even cooler song, but she just hums the song and says she can’t sing it when Jonghyun is there.

“Why not?” Jonghyun laughs, the others giggling.

“It is a very important album for me and I can’t afford having it leaked out by playing it for someone outside the team,” Maria answers when taking a seat again, picking up Ace to have him in her arms.

“I have heard your music before”

“Very nice, Captain,” Hannah rolls her eyes.

“No offend, Jonghyun, I just want it to be done before I show it off, you know. It is going to be so freaking awesome that everyone will-”

“Yeah, yeah, you are awesome, we know,” Julia interrupts and Hannah hugs Jonghyun’s arm with a giggle when Julia obviously rolls her eyes at the leader. Jonghyun isn’t offended; he understands her like a musician and he just nods, smiling at how Hannah keeps leaning closer to him the longer they sit there.

A subject he listens well to is when Hannah gets to talk about her day. She has done the most things today, but she talks the least as both Maria and Julia talk quite a lot. He can always talk to her more about that later.

With time, Carolina comes back home; her voice is loud and fills out more space in the apartment as she brings out chocolate balls from the kitchen. She is the only one eating them though; they made chocolate balls for today’s show. Jonghyun takes one too, just to try it.

“Hannah is good to make those,” Carolina comments, but Hannah shakes her head to Jonghyun. “Chocolate balls and cupcakes are the only things she can do, but she does them deliciously.”

“Ooooh,” Jonghyun remembers something and he turns his face to Hannah, his whole face smiling that y and charming smile of his. “You made cupcakes for my birthday last year.”

Hannah turns her face away with a small pout, for just a small moment worried her members will continue the subject but they move simply on with the conversation, and Jonghyun is smiling at her. He leans his face closer to her, his lips brushes by her ear and while he closes his eyes when smelling her hair, Hannah closes hers because of his lips.

“They did taste delicious,” he whispers, a warm breath against her skin. “I didn’t get any this year.”

“Well, I couldn’t give you the same thing twice now, could I?” Hannah jokes with him, feeling how dry is by his voice and she shivers when he responses with a low chuckle in his throat. Carolina gives them a glance. She would have wanted to sit in the same sofa as Hannah, but Jonghyun was there so she saw down with Julia instead.

It is quite joyful to sit there, Hannah thinks. She misses Emelia, wondering what her friend is doing in Japan at the moment, but she likes how the ladies are just talking and hanging out; all of them begin to yawn and get tired pretty soon though. Only Carolina stays up to finish eating up the six chocolate balls.

Hannah is yawning and smiling when going to bed. She has brushed her teeth and gotten ready for bed with Jonghyun, joking and smiling at each other when brushing their teeth. Hannah is done in the bathroom first, putting on a light grey sleeveless t-shirt before she crawls up in bed to tiredly lie down under the quilt, falling on her stomach and the moment her head touches the pillow she closes her eyes. She is exhausted after today. Her body and mind are ready to sleep and her eyelids are heavy, her heart is light though after the surprise by her boyfriend. Her new watch is in the box on her bedside table, she had prepared water for the bouquet and all the rose petals have been brushed away to a pile. It feels good to know Jonghyun is there; she can hear him humming on a song in the bathroom when he opens the door, turning off the lights before she hears how he is undressing. If she wasn’t so tired she would look at him; she takes a peek though, smiling tiredly when seeing a bare chest facing her.

“Are you tired?” Jonghyun chuckles, his voice is so warm. He is taking off his jeans when seeing that she can’t even keep her eyes open, and he smiles at her.

“Mm,” Hannah answers, without opening her eyes or moving , but she stretches out her legs under the quilt when Jonghyun crawls in next to her. He lies on the side so he is facing her, his hand under his head when pulling up the quilt with the other hand under his arm.

“Are you awake to talk a little?” he asks her quietly.

Hannah gives a pout for answer.

“A little talk,” Jonghyun suggests.

“No talk,” Hannah pouts tiredly, a little cutely too; “just sleep.”

“I want to talk,” Jonghyun says and Hannah whines, almost hitting her hand in her face. She is too tired for this.

“Just sleep, Jonghyun,” she whines. Jonghyun takes his hand through her hair, which makes it easier for her to calm down and wanting to sleep. He is quiet for a bit, so she thinks he will try to sleep, but he says again that he wants to talk to her. Hannah just wants to sleep.

“I still have the image of you crying in your sleep, Hannah.”

She opens her eyes, tiredly looking at him. “Why?” she asks, her voice a mere whisper. Jonghyun sighs and takes his fingers through her hair again, doing it softly and she blinks, his touch making it difficult to keep her eyes open.

“I can’t stop thinking about it,” he mentions in a low voice, “For two weeks I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it, Hannah; that you cried in your sleep like that because of your family.”

“I had been drinking that night; the concert and everything was a mess in my head with the alcohol, don’t make such a big deal about it,” Hannah mutters and roll around on her back, taking her own hand through her hair and closes her eyes tiredly.

“Not make a big deal about it?” Jonghyun sits up on his arm, his voice getting louder; “What am I supposed to do then? If I cried in my sleep, wouldn’t you worry about it too? Can’t we just call your mother and try to talk to her, make her understand what she is doing to you? If we just-”

“My whole family is a hopeless case, Jonghyun,” Hannah sighs and turns her head to look at him. “I love how you have a positive mind about families, but keep mine as an exception.”

“Hannah, that is just-”

“It’s my family and I know them better than anyone else in this country; if you could just forget about them and focus on other things, I would be forever grateful,” Hannah interrupts him, and she moves to lie on her side in hope her eyes will stay open easier, looking at him with her annoyance and him looking at her with his pity. He still looks y for her, a soft iness with his jawline forming his face. Jonghyun’s face looks sad when he caresses her cheek, and again she is fighting to keep her eyes open.

“You’re too angry at them, Nabi,” Jonghyun whispers. When she opens her eyes his face is much closer to hers, and she moves her head just a little to be able to meet his gaze.

You don’t think I should be angry?

“I just don’t like seeing that,” Jonghyun whispers, his thumb caress her chin. “I like to see you smile. Like you have smiled today.”

“I’m tired,” Hannah mumbles, barely moving her lips because of his thumb by her chin. He always distracts her like that, always touching her like this.

“I know,” he breathes, a tip of his finger traces up her jawline, the same way she wants to do on him. Hannah closes her eyes when his finger traces down her neck and follows the collar of her t-shirt. His face gets closer to hers and he glances up to her parted lips after watching his finger tracing down. “We can talk more about this in the morning.”

“About my family or where your fingers are going?” Hannah wonders in a low voice, peeking out behind her lashes to see a smile as she pushes her chest against his hand. “And here I thought you wanted to talk.”

“It’s not my fault I have such a y girlfriend,” Jonghyun chuckles deep in his throat, “but sure, we can talk about where my fingers want to travel on your body in the morning. Now, both you and I need to sleep.”

He gives her a peck on the lips and his fingers caresses her cheek one more time before he lies more comfortably to try sleep. Hannah is slightly disappointed, as she did get her expectations up with his fingers tracing down her neck. He surely knows how to distract her, how to make her whole body warm. She looks at him as he closes his eyes, but she doesn’t want to sleep anymore. It’s slightly irritating that he did that, making her expect something and then tell her they can wait until morning. She won’t be able to sleep.

Tired or not, her body won’t relax in this state and it is his fault. Hannah gets up a bit on her arms to lean forward, placing her lips on Jonghyun’s. With her hand below his chin she parts his lips with her thumb, deepening the kiss and she so want to roll her eyes when he kisses her back with a smile. He knew she wouldn’t go to sleep.

 

The sudden alarm startles Hannah awake and without seeing anything with her newly woken eyes she stretches over Jonghyun to turn it off. She takes a glimpse of the time and sighs when she lies back, rubbing her eye with one hand in hope she won’t fall back asleep.

It’s morning already?

Jonghyun rolls over her when she has lied back down, nestling his face in her neck and muttering that he doesn’t want to get up. Hannah doesn’t want to get up either, but she need to be on time for the schedule – she doesn’t want to be late for the drama filming and before that she has to get her hair and make-up done. It is a good thing she always wakes up in good time; it is two hours left until she has to be ready to leave.

She giggles when Jonghyun’s lips tickles her neck and she laughs when he holds on to her so she can’t slink away, but she still moves her head to not be tickled.

“Jonghyun,” Hannah giggles, touching his bare chest when holding him away.

“Good morning, beautiful,” he whispers and blinks with a y smirk, stretching his arm over his head, lying on the side to look at her. “Did you sleep well tonight?”

Hannah smiles and nods, turning to lie on the side too, her hands held together like a cute child when looking at him. “And you?”

“Perfectly fine,” he answers in a deep voice, taking his arm over her. “You have that spell over me.”

“Vice versa,” Hannah whispers with a smile, leaning in to kiss him. Jonghyun chuckles happily, kissing her back and he holds his arm around her shoulders to hold her closer.

An undying attraction to one another; Hannah thinks it is because they can’t see each other every day, not even every week. Her whole body just tingles when seeing him, when waking up in the morning and the first thing Jonghyun does it to make her smile. The first thing they do in the morning is to kiss, and she can’t understand how she can wake up in the mornings without him there; how boring those mornings suddenly seems to be.

Hannah is smiling when they break away from the kiss, and Jonghyun takes his thumb over her lower lip with a soft smile.

“What should we do about your family then?” Jonghyun wonders, and he looks into her eyes when seeing her smile disappear completely. Hannah sits up in the bed, her mood completely different.

“Why do you ruin the moment?” she complains with a whine at him.

“It’s an important subject that we don’t get anywhere on,” Jonghyun answers, lying down on his back to look at her.

“And I tell you to stop bring it up,” Hannah mutters, crawling over him to get out of bed. She is still wearing the light grey sleeveless t-shirt and from last night, pulling down the t-shirt to cover her when she has stood up.

“Why is it such a bad thing to try solve it with your family? Won’t it feel better to know you have done everything you can to fix it?” Jonghyun wonders, staying in her bed with the quilt below his chest, looking at Hannah grabbing a pair of pyjamas pants.

“No. And even Lee Sooman has said that I don’t have to do anything if I don’t want to,” Hannah answers, pulling on the pants.

“He really lets you ignore it?” Jonghyun wonders, not sitting up on his elbows in the bed, frowning with his hair tousled after and sleep. Hannah’s hair is a bit of a mess too – her hair has never been this messy in the mornings beside from when Jonghyun sleeps over.

“Yes, because he understands that it is my family and my issue to deal with however I want and if I want,” Hannah coldly answers, walking over to the bedside table to find something she can put up her hair with. Is it just Jonghyun who notices what her family does to Hannah?

“And your ladies? What do they say?” Jonghyun says calmly, but his voice doesn’t understand and he is a little frustrated with that their own boss can just let her ignore her family even when knowing how Hannah is emotional each time bringing them up.

“They have their own issues to deal with,” Hannah sighs and walks over to the wardrobe to take out the clothes she wants to wear today.

Jonghyun sighs and sits up straight, sitting tailor with his hands in his lap, looking at her trying to keep herself busy. She can’t look at him; he is sitting in her bed with a bare upper body and tousled hair – it is y. She is too into lately with Jonghyun, she notices that now when she wants to be upset but even with her back against him she only thinks of how he looks like sitting behind her.

“They don’t seem to have a trouble talking about their issues with you,” Jonghyun mentions, “why don’t you talk to them?”

“Do we really have to talk about this?”

“When do you think we should talk about this then?”

“Never?” Hannah asks and finally looks at him with a hand on her hip, looking annoyed and childish at first but when seeing how sad her boyfriend looks she sighs helplessly, dropping her shoulders and it looks like she doesn’t want to give in but in the end she crawls up on the bed, sitting down on her knees close in front of him so when she puts her hands by his neck she has no trouble to plant a kiss on his lips. “Fine, I’ll talk it through with my members, if it is such a big thing for you. But I won’t change my mind about my family.”

He is really handsome, she thinks with a pout, her thumbs caressing by his jaw and she glances up at his eyes to see how softly he looks at her.

“I would drop the subject about your family if it wasn’t troubling you so much, Hannah,” he whispers, a hand on her leg. “And it would be a lie if you said it isn’t. I don’t know if you put on an act around the others, but it is clear in front of me.”

“I’m not denying anything and I don’t put on an act in front of anyone. My ladies know better than to talk about my family, they don’t need me to tell them everything,” Hannah tells him quietly, “Could you please stop bringing it up?”

“They are your family, Hannah,” Jonghyun whispers, and it looks like he is going to cry. “Don’t you think about Emelia? Her grandmother has died, don’t you think you will regret all this when someone in your family gets sick or dies? Won’t you regret not talking things through with them?”

“I know they are my family, and I will always love them.”

“But?”

“But it’s complicated…” Hannah answers and takes her hands down, sitting down on her as if she is going to get up from bed again, but this time Jonghyun takes a hold on both of her hands to not let her go.

“Everything about you is complicated, Hannah; that is a part to why I am in love with you.”

Hannah looks bothered by his words at first, and she holds her breath when he brings up her hand to kiss it, not breaking the eye-contact.

“Don’t let your family bring you down,” Jonghyun tells her, “I know you, Hannah; you are cute and shy, your smile is like the sun and your laugh always makes my whole body go insane. You don’t smile or laugh like you used to, and it is not because you are tired or in a bad mood or any poor reason like that; it is because of your family. I only want you to solve your issues with them to see you feel-”

It knocks on the door, making them both give a jump in surprise and Hannah covers as she was about to scream.

“Are you awake?” It’s just Maria, which makes Jonghyun lie down sideway in the bed with a laugh. Hannah giggles, throwing his hand away from hers as she hurries up to the door.

“What is it?” she wonders when looking out to see Maria stand there, newly awake it seems like.

“Just making sure you’re awake…” Maria answers with a grimace, glancing up and down at Hannah, “I can never be sure with you two. And do you want some eggs for breakfast?”

“Not for me,” Hannah answers and turns around to ask Jonghyun, but he doesn’t want any either. Maria shrugs her shoulder, peeking inside to say ‘good morning’ to Jonghyun before she says she is going downstairs, leaving with her morning face being half-asleep. Hannah closes the door and looks over her shoulder at Jonghyun. She is pretty sure the mood is different now, and when looking at her boyfriend he is lying down, holding up his head with his hand and he is smirking at her.

“I know what I want for breakfast,” he growls and bites his lip, and Hannah just gapes at him.

“Your mood swings are worse than mine,” Hannah comments, but she smiles when Jonghyun takes his fingers over his lips, looking deeper at her.

“Are you just going to let your hot boyfriend wait in bed like this?” Jonghyun asks, so full of him self that Hannah giggles. She can’t let him wait now, can she? With a smile she crawls up on bed, leaning over him to kiss his cheek and giggling when he tries to reach her lips.

“I like it when you don’t wear a shirt,” Hannah whispers and kisses his shoulder, and again she giggles hearing him growling in his throat.

“I like it when you don’t wear anything,” he mentions with a smile, biting on to the flesh by her neck as she is stubborn to not kiss him on the lips. Hannah sits down with a laugh, holding his hands away from her as he tries to take off her t-shirt. Jonghyun bites his lip and crawls on top of her, making her fall back in bed and finally he kisses her on the lips, holding her underneath him so she can’t get away and Hannah laughs with him.

Later in the day, Hannah is in the van with her members on the way to the airport to head to Japan for a photo shoot. The girls are loud. One moment talking about the second song dance practice for Maria that she did today and the next moment talk about Hannah and Kim Jaejoong filming today; they are loudly talking in mouth on each other and laughing. They all seem to have so much to talk about after not meeting for several hours and in between it all the ladies are giggling when talking about Jonghyun.

Hannah has been blushing half the day, being teased at the set for the drama. One of the pictures she and Jonghyun took yesterday – the one of them looking at each other with a smile (they had taken one with the Polaroid) – had been uploaded on Jonghyun’s twitter earlier today, with no text at all but he had sent a private message to Hannah to say that in one month, they have been a couple for three years. And everyone have seen that picture; everyone. He couldn’t tell her in the morning, he just had to announce it for her while revealing a picture to the whole world.

But no one seems to hate it though, surprisingly. Hannah has seen comments on twitter; there has even been an article about it as well with fans commenting ‘so cute’, ‘they are my favourite couple’, ‘l saw the picture and was like KISS, KISS, KISS!!!’, ‘wow… a new fan of theirs’, ‘their duets are my favourite songs, a big fan of both groups and I am so happy they are openly dating!! More couples should do this…’, ‘Blonde and blonde, they surely look like a cute match; hope they stay together for LONG time’, ‘Jonghyun has fallen for Hannah xD They both look happy when they are together’, ‘omg so adorable these two!’, and someone had in a long comment written the history of this couple this year with the news breaking out, going on a movie date and so on.

Hannah is in the van looking through some of those pictures they had taken to upload one as well. She lets Maria choose between three of the pictures.

“Oh my GOSH that one is beautiful!” Maria bursts out in English, speaking with a pure British amazed accent that makes Julia want to see the picture too. Hannah leans over to see the picture as well, and she smiles with her head put on the side seeing it is a picture of the Polaroid picture her with the bouquet of roses, looking pretty while Jonghyun is holding up the Polaroid and is a little closer to the frame but Hannah is standing by his shoulder. It is a very good picture of them both and Maria turns around in her seat with big eyes. “THAT one, definitely”

“I should upload it?” Hannah wonders, getting her phone back from Julia.

“It is a good picture, yeah,” Julia answers with a nod.

“If you won’t upload it; I will,” Maria agrees, waiting for Hannah to upload it before she turns back around. “Three years, hu? That’s pretty amazing.”

“Our fans don’t know it though,” Hannah mentions.

“What?” Julia looks confused.

“We have never said for how long we have been together,” Hannah answers with a shrug, focusing on uploading the picture on twitter through her cell phone. “Our beginning was so weird that we decided to not really mention that.”

“That’s just sick,” Julia grimaces and then rolls her eyes at Carolina gasping for air at the reaction. “I mean that it’s been three years of a relationship but fans think it is a few months or a year the longest. If it was my idols, I would feel quite upset if I found out how long time it was.”

“It’s just sick that we have been together for three years,” Hannah mutters, her eyes still on her cell phone. She glances up when it is quiet after her comment and she sees Maria glaring at her. “What?” Hannah laughs.

“I say it one time and you will never hear me say it again; keep him,” Maria answers with a finger pointed at Hannah. Their manager chuckles from the front seat.

“Keep him? He’s not a dog,” Julia rolls her eyes.

“He is following Hannah like a dog,” Maria answers, responding by rolling her eyes at Julia, “Duh, just ask Emelia and she’ll confirm it too. Right, Oppa?”

Manager Lee looks surprised to be mentioned. “Um, yeah, sure, if you say so. The naïve magnae is also crazy about the dog boyfriend.”

“Don’t call him that,” Hannah whines from the back. “Why are you all so cruel to him?”

“Its fun,” Maria answers with a chuckle, “how crazy he is about you and how naïve our little baby is… I’m happy for you, Hannah, be sure about that.”

Hannah smiles when she winks at her, and Maria laughs happily, the leader adding that Jonghyun can handle their cruel comments.
