Setbacks

Into the New World

 

 

“You really won’t let me listen to it until your comeback?” I grinned. She had been pestering me about listening to the new album ever since she got to my dorm a couple hours ago. Since it came out today we had the evening off and since Tiffany couldn’t really do much of anything, she came over. It was probably going to be the last time in a while we would get to spend together like this too seeing as the promotions for the new album officially started tomorrow. “Tae!” Aish!

 “I told you that I want you to watch it live first Fany-ah,” I called from the kitchen. I wanted her to see all the hard work we put in to all the choreography and everything all at once! I really wanted to impress her with this one just like we’ve already impressed the fans.

Our single from the album somehow debuted on the chart at number two! We figured with all this chaos I’ve created it would’ve done much, MUCH worse. I figured it was just because everyone was curious to see what this song said, for now they all knew who it was about, but hey, it worked for me!

“But Tae~,” she whined. I grinned again.

“But Fany~,” I whined back as I came to sit beside her.

“You can perform it here for me. Or you can show me in your room,” she said before her lips met my neck. I leaned in to her kiss, but then stopped myself. I stood up.

“A-ani! We have food cooking Fany we can’t do that!” Oh my, I almost fell in to that trap, again…

“Then just show me it right now! You’ll be able to see my reaction and everything. Besides you owe me!” Omo she did have a good point. Wait a minute…

“What do I owe you for,” I asked defensively. What did I possibly do this time?

“Like fifty thousand people left SNSD’s fan cafe Taeyeon! Probably more by now!” Right, I guess that was kind of my fault…

Things hadn’t been all rainbows and butterflies since we had come clean. The internet searches were in an uproar. If you looked up anything remotely to do with anything k-pop in the past week, we were the one of the first articles that popped up. People really loved and hated our Strong Heart episode. There were tons of blogs and pages saying things along the lines of ‘we wish you the best’ or ‘we support you two’ or just general lines of encouragement, and I really appreciated that. We even had a new fan group of our own that called themselves ‘Locksmiths’ because of our lock and key necklaces that everyone had already figured out to be a couple item. I thought it was actually pretty clever.

Then, of course came all the negative comments and blogs. They were saying things like, we shouldn’t have revealed it the way that we did because it was too show off-y, or that we were selfish for keeping it a secret for so long. Mostly they were things that just pissed me off.

Don’t even get me started on our fans. Both of our groups’ fan cafes had taken serious hits in numbers. Hers was obviously way more because I mean she had a billion times more than I did to begin with. We had even caused mini wars between our fan groups, which I didn’t even understand. We liked each other; shouldn’t you guys like each other too? You’ll be seeing a lot more of us and probably each other in the future. Ugh!

Although we felt completely relieved about not having to sneak around or lie anymore, we had a whole new set of worries.

I just really hoped that it didn’t hurt either of our groups. If I would have been a solo artist or something I wouldn’t been minded at all because this was my decision and my choice, but if Yuri or Sooyoung get affected because of it I’m going to feel really, really terrible.

Damnit! Now I felt bad again. Maybe I should let her listen to it?

“I’ll think about it!” I went to go check on the food again. It was only ramen, but I couldn’t let it cook for too long.

As I made my way to the kitchen I heard a phone start ringing.

“Taeyeon-ah, it’s yours! It’s IU.” Oh! She was probably just calling to congratulate me on my album or something.

“Just answer it!” The noodles were done, so I had to deal with this first. I heard her mumble something and then her loud voice rang.

“Yeboseyo!” I smiled. I was really glad they at least sort of got along now. “Ah, yeah he’s like twenty feet away.” Ah! Before I forget!

“Tell her not to buy my album and that I’ll give her a signed one,” I looked over my shoulder to see her give me a thumbs up.

“Taeyeon says to not buy his album and he’ll give you a signed one the next time he sees you… Right now? His dorm, why? Oh my god,” she said in English. Uh, oh. that didn’t sound good. I set the bowl down on the counter and rushed to where she was. She handed the phone over as soon as I got there.

“Ye-yeboseyo?”

“Ne! This is Noh Hongchul hyung.” Oh god. What the hell IU?

“Ah n-ne, annyeonghaseyo hyung! I’m gonna set it on speaker phone.”

“Alright! Firstly we are filming Heroes right now. You aren’t busy are you?”

“Aniyo, I’m just at home.”

“With Tiffany-ssi right? I hummed. “Are you sure you’re not busy?” I heard ‘ooh’s in the back ground.

“I’m positive,” I laughed. “I was just making food.”

“Ah, then you won’t mind us taking some of your time?”

“Aniyo, go ahead.” Tiffany mouthed the words ‘what’s going on,’ but I could only shrug.

“Have you watched Heroes before?”

“Of course I have,” I cheerfully responded. This was more than likely going to be broadcasted.

“Taeyeon-ssi, if, if! I really mean if. Tiffany-ssi this really is an if situation.” I laughed. I had a couple of guesses where this was going now.

“I got it oppa,” she laughed.

“Among the members of Heroes, who would you choose to be your wife? All the ages and backgrounds are the same, it’s just by the person.” Oh god, I knew it. Tiffany gave me a look that I knew wasn’t going to end well.

“You are really putting me in the hot seat,” I joked.

“Ne, I’m sorry we had to call you but, you were IU’s chosen celebrity friend.”

“Ahh jinjja? Then am I supposed to pick her?” That would make my life a whole lot easier. I heard a lot of screaming coming from the other side.

“Ani, ani, just pick who you would want to be your wife.”

“So it’s strictly by looks?” He hummed. Oh god Fany is gonna kill me for this. Aish, I can’t lie either because she knows who I’m going to say… “Well if that’s the case then,” I let out a deep breath. “Sorry Jieun-ah. Park Kahi-ssi!” I watched Tiffany roll her eyes.

“Jinjja?” I hummed. “Tiffany-ssi are you still there?” Oh god, he really was trying to die tonight. She replied. “Ne, Tiffany-ssi how does it feel to know your boyfriend’s true feelings about our members?”

“Oh, I already knew he was her fan,” she laughed. She didn’t sound mad, but she was also probably acting.

“Oh really? So you’re not worried or anything? Kahi-ssi seems pretty happy on this end,” Hongchul stated.

“Aniyo, I’m not worried at all.” I saw her raise an eyebrow and grin. Uh oh. “Like you said oppa, she’s on that end and I’m here, with him.” I could hear ‘ooh’s in the background. Oh god. Like we weren’t talked about enough already…

________________________________________________________________________________________

I was so excited for today. It was the day I’d finally get to hear TYS’s new song. Even though it’s been so hard to not listen to it for the past four days I promised Taeyeon I wouldn’t. Especially after the little stunt I played on the phone a couple days ago. I laughed to myself just thinking about it. I personally thought it was hilarious, Taeyeon however… well he didn’t find it too funny. He got all pouty and everything once we hung up. I eventually got him to believe that it was going to be all okay with some heavy convincing on my end, and by convincing I totally mean I kissed my way out of this one.

Oh well! I had to do what I had to do.

Luckily we were also preforming today on Music Bank, for it should be our third win tonight. Well they will be at least. I’ll be sitting the bench for this one. We were on our way to the studio right now.

“Their song is really good though,” Sunny chimed in. “You’ll love it.”

“Jinjja?” She hummed.

“The video is annoying though,” Jessica commented from the front seat.

“Ugh, don’t remind me.” I had totally forgotten about the , I mean girl, on Taeyeon’s lap in the teaser. She was just an actress Tiffany! She was married! Calm down! Ugh, I would totally have to watch that once I got home.

Soon however we arrived. It felt really weird to be here and not be performing, or worried about time slots or anything like that, but it also felt kind of nice. We breezed past the security and soon found ourselves in the hall where the artist’s rooms were. We found ours easily.

“Okay, I’m gonna go find Taeyeon now! I’ll see you before you go on!”

“Alright, be careful,” oppa said as I left the room. I started walking around looking for their room, but with no luck on my own I quickly found a staff member to ask. Finally heading in the correct direction it took me less than a minute. Aish, good one Tiff you should have done that five minutes ago... I knocked. After getting permission, I opened the door.

I saw Yuri still getting his hair worked on, Sooyoung talking to their manager and it looked like Taeyeon was asleep. I smiled. He was slumped over with his head resting on a table and a little pink blanket over his shoulders. Aigo, that position couldn’t be good for his back

Sooyoung was the first to notice me.

“Oh noo-“

I motioned for him to shut up; I didn’t want him to wake Taeyeon. I then went swiftly to the seat right beside him and laid my head down beside his so we were facing each other. I started rubbing his back. “Taeyeon-ah~, Tae~,” I called. I giggled when I saw his face start to come alive. His brows furrowed and his nose twitched. He opened an eye.

“Fany?” I hummed and sat back up, still rubbing his back.

“I like your pink blanket Taetae.” I heard a low raspy chuckle. Aw, he must be really tired if he’s falling asleep here. He usually never lets himself nap in public.

“I got it because it’s your favorite,” he said before the biggest yawn and stretch possible. The blanket dropped off his shoulders right along with my jaw. Not because he got a blanket that was my favorite color, no, but because of what he had on underneath the blanket. I should say what he didn’t have on really.

“Kim Taeyeon, what are you wearing?” His eyes widened and he looked down. In seconds flat he had the blanket back up around him. “No, I want to see.” I pulled down the blanket. Oh my god. Daebak.

He was wearing a black vest. That was it! Omo, you could see his chest muscles and all of his little arm muscles omo. Thank god it covered his stomach; I would have had to kill his stylist. He did look good though. I grinned.

“Fany~,” he whined, before pulling it up once again. Aish! No! Were all of them dressed like this? I looked around. Nope. Sooyoung was in all white clothing, which happened to be long sleeved. Ugh… oh what about Yuri! He was known to have one of the best bodies out there. Yeah, well. What the hell. His was also a tank top, but it was a turtleneck shirt. Why~?

“Why are you the only one this Tae~,” I whined. I did not like this. His body was only for me to see. He looked away.

“Uh well, because I was the worst at acting y,” he paused. “So they made my outfit the iest to make up for it.” I laughed and he looked right at me.

“Wait really?” He nodded. Omo. I put my hand on his knee. “Tae, don’t think of it as trying to be y pabo. You just have to be super confident. Just think of yourself as the best person in the world and preform the song,” I grinned. “Or,” I started to slide my hand up his thigh. “Think about what we do when we’re alone, because you’re pretty y then,” I said softly as I got closer to his ear. He immediately stood up. I giggled. It was seriously so fun to play with Taeyeon.

“Uhm, uh.” He cleared his throat. “Do you want something to drink?”

I spent the next five minutes or so listening to Sooyoung bicker with his manager about food. Oppa wouldn’t let him eat anything because he was wearing all white and would more than likely spill something on his outfit.  I laughed, but I didn’t disagree. It was Sooyoung after all. A PD soon popped in saying that they would be on in ten. Wah~! I think I was even more excited than they were.

The order of the end of the show was TYS, and then KARA was also here with their comeback. Then we would be the ending performance. That meant that my members would get to watch their performance with me. I walked out of the room hand in hand with Taeyeon and it felt amazing. Not having to hide. Oh my god I loved it. We made it to where he had to go get his mic and earpiece set up.

“You better do good okay?” he nodded with a grin. “Don’t fall and make me carry you off stage too.”

“Aish, Fany-ah, I’m too fat for that,” he joked. “Come here,” he said before pulling me in for a hug. “I’ll come find you as soon as I’m done okay?” I hummed.

“Okay Taetae.” I pulled out of the hug, and surprised him with a kiss. It was a short and very innocent kiss, but it left him with his eyes wide nonetheless. I grinned. “I love you. Good luck.” Before I let him speak again, I quickly walked away to find my members.

A few minutes later I finally saw Seohyun, thank god she was so tall.

“Seohyunie!”

“Oh? Oh! Unnie!” The three them were soon beside me.

“Come on I think they’re about to-.“ I heard music start playing. Oh my god. “Start! Let’s go!” I was totally going to miss it. Omo. I really am the worst.

Thankfully once we got to the side of the stage we figured out it was just the opening video. Whew, I let out a deep breath as my focus went to the stage. I could see someone sitting in a chair. I couldn’t quite see who because the lights were all off, but I think it was Yuri, and I was right! The lights and the music started all at once. I grabbed Sunny’s hand. Waah~!

 

[Yuri]
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only (x2)

[Sooyoung]
All day I can’t do anything because of you
I think my heart’s been taken by you
It’s as if you’re right next to me
My head is drunk with thoughts of last night
I can’t sober up, all because of you, I’m going crazy
I want you, to have you, to touch you
I’m falling for you, deeper and deeper

[Y]
My body and my heart endlessly desire you
Like a kid on candy who got it taken away
I’m going crazy, whatever I do,
I can’t focus, my mind is somewhere else
What exactly did you do to me?
It makes no sense that I’m being like this

[Taeyeon]
Your eyes that look at me make me go crazy
You strangely smile at me
You say my name and keep looking into my eyes
You say my name and look into my eyes~

[T]
Your caressing touch, takes my breath away
You make me unable to move
You ride and flow from my head down to my neck
Ride and flow from my head to my neck~

 [Y]
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only (x2)
[S]
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only (x2)

 [Y]
When you look at me, it’s feels like electricity is flowing
When you touch me, I close my eyes and breathe in your scent
I feel like I could fly, it seems like my body and heart are burning
From the moment you appear, I go crazy

[S]
As soon as we say goodbye, I already miss you
Should we go far away somewhere so we’re never apart?
Even if I throw away my career, I think I still would be happy
See, my heart beat isn’t normal, I’m crazy
That’s what you do. Please help me!

[T]
Your eyes that look at me make me go crazy
You strangely smile at me~  whoa~
You say my name and keep looking into my eyes
You say my name and look into my eyes

[T]
Your caressing touch, takes my breath away
You make me unable to move
You ride and flow from my head down to my neck
Ride and flow from my head to my neck~

 [Y]
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only (x2)
[T]
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only (x2)

[T&Y] All day~ [S] I think about you. That’s all I do
[T&Y] All night~ [S] I think about you. That’s all I do
[T&Y] All day~ [S] I think about you. That’s all I do
[T&Y] All night~ [S] I think about you. I think about you
(x2)

[Y]
([Taeyeon] All day~) (All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only ([Taeyeon] I only think of you~)
(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only ([Taeyeon] Ahh~ Only~)

(All all) All day (you) I only think of you (only) only (only) only ([Taeyeon] I think of you only~ )

 

 

“Oh. My. God.”

“I told you, you would like it.” That was an understatement. I loved it. Taeyeon’s voice… oh my god it was so good. And the moves, omo, he was definitely going to have to do that little dance for me when we were alone. I bit my lip just thinking about it. Not to mention the lyrics, gah.

Actually, I wasn’t even sure if I was more angry or right now that I think about it…

For one he had pretty much let everyone that listened to it know that we have had , I mean the lyrics sort of gave that away. On the other hand I think that’s what made it so damn hot! Him singing about us, like that. Omo. One of our groups were going to have to find somewhere else to go for a few hours tonight because I needed him…alone.

________________________________________________________________________________________

I wasn’t the only one to love their new album either. In the two weeks it’s been out it has topped literately every chart that it possibly could have. It even won on all the music shows this past weekend, which was a pretty good birthday present to our Yuri I'd say! We were all kind of bummed we didn’t get to see him, but they were super busy that day. Taeyeon said they did get to have a little cake and everything though which made me feel a little better.

The bigger thing I was bummed out about is that Taeyeon and I really haven’t been able to take advantage of our relationship being public. Yeah, we’ve gone over to each other’s dorms more freely and more frequent, which I was happier about. Now if we could only get rid of our members more often. Although we’ve got to do more of, well, each other… We haven’t got to go out on fun dates or anything like that.

I put most of the blame on him for that one for my schedule was pretty much wide open. I had a few more Japanese lessons than before, but other than that there was almost nothing. Since we were publicly a couple now all I wanted to do was for us to, I don’t know, go see a movie, or go shopping, or just go out to eat somewhere! No! I know! What I really wanted to do was go to N Seoul Tower and leave a love lock there, wah~! It was always a dream of mine to do that with my future boyfriend, but I never did or have, yet.

I think it would be even more special because the first present he ever got me was in fact a lock necklace. It must have been a sign from God or something that I needed to marry this boy…er. What? am I saying? 

Thankfully my phone started to ring.

“Yeboseyo?”

“Ne, Tiffany, it’s me.”

“Oh oppa! What’s up?” Why was my manager calling? I just saw him like twenty minutes ago when he picked the girls up for a late schedule.

“The doctor’s office left a voice mail earlier that I just checked and they want to see you tomorrow morning. You might be able to stop wearing the brace,” he cheered.

“What? Really?” He hummed. “Wow! That’s awesome oppa!” I was ecstatic too. This stupid thing got in the way of almost all my pants. I’ve been wearing either sweatpants, skirts, or dresses for the past three weeks, which I guess isn’t too bad, but I really missed my skinny jeans!

“Yep, I just wanted to let you know the good news. I gotta go now.”

“Ne, tell the girls good luck!” We said our goodbyes and then he hung up. Crap. What was I going to do for the rest of the evening now? Taeyeon was filming a CF today so I had no idea when he’d be done. Hmm I guess I could catch up on that new dra- my phone started ringing again. Ugh, what does he want now?

“What now oppa?”

“Oppa?” What? I looked at the caller ID.

“Taeyeon?” He hummed. “Why are you calling me? How’s your filming going?”

“It’s going good Fany-ah, and because I missed your voice brat! Don’t get so feisty with me.” I laughed.

“Ani, it’s not like that! I just thought that you were busy.”

“Don’t worry! We’re on a break. There’s something that I wanted to ask you too.” Uh, alright…

“What’s that?”

“Are you busy tomorrow?”

“Uhm probably not,” I paused. “Why?”

“Because I‘m trying to ask you on a date Tiffany! Jeesh, why must you make everything so difficult?” Oh my god.

“Really?” He hummed. “Waah! Tae, I was totally just thinking about how much I wanted to go out with you!”

“Ah jinjja?” I hummed. This was perfect.

“What time are you gonna pick me up?”

“Hmm, hyung and I will be there around five? Does that sound okay?” I hummed again.

“It sounds perfect! I’ll see you tomorrow Taetae!” We said our goodbyes and hung up. Omo, it was like he had read my thoughts or something! I was super excited. Now I only wondered where he was taking me? Crap! I should have asked!

________________________________________________________________________________________

It was around ten till five and I was practically bouncing. I looked in the mirror one more time. Since Taeyeon didn’t say how nice I was supposed to dress nor did he tell me when I asked, the little jerk, I picked something that was down the middle. I just wore a red shirt with a black skirt and some black tights underneath, I mean it was December. I topped it off with bright red heels and a black and white patterned jacket. I touched up my make up one last time, for I knew we were bound to be photographed. I might as well look good I thought.

Two minutes before five I got a text saying that he was here. Of course none of my members were though. Sunny was off filming with Sooyoung, Seohyun was visiting her parents and I think Jess was at an audition? Oh well! I rushed out of the dorm and in to the elevator. Stepping in to the parking garage I immediately saw their van. Thank god their manager was coming with us. Oppa said he wouldn’t have allowed it if it was just the two of us because of all the unwanted attention we would be grabbing.

As I neared the van the door slid open and Taeyeon hopped out and boy did he look good. He wore tight fitting black dress pants that I’m sure showed off his cute little . Then up top he had a stripped black and white shirt on followed by a suit jacket. I grinned.

“Holy crap, Fany. You look great. Omo! You’re not wearing the brace!”

“So do you Taetae,” I said as pulled him in for a quick kiss. “And I know, I went to the doctor this morning. They said it should only be a week or so before I can ease back into dancing. Where are we going?”

“Wah! Fany that’s amazing!” He kissed my forehead. "But~, just get in, it’s a surprise!” I groaned.

“I really hate surprises.”

Fifteen minutes later the van had stopped, but I had no clue where we were.

“Uhm…”

“We’re going in there,” he pointed across the street. I looked to see that there was a line of people outside of the place.

“Uhm, why? Why are there so many people?”

“It’s a charity dinner that the Heroes members are putting on. IU called last night and invited me. She said it would be a big help if I could come, so I thought what’s a better first date as a public couple than one that’s going to be televised?”

I smiled for a second, it was a really cute thought, but what? I think literately anything else would have been better than being around all these people, idols and not to mention cameras. Ugh.

“Are-are you mad?” I looked at him. Oh . He looked worried. “We can go somewhere afterwards too if you want? Or just skip this altogether?” Gah, he really did know how to unintentionally make people feel bad. I know he was just trying to be cute and help his friend all in one. I guess they would have great security though since there were so many celebrities in there. Ugh, it might not be too bad.

“Ani. Its fine Tae. Let’s go somewhere afterward too though, okay?” He smiled and stepped out of the van and then helped me out. “Oh!” I stopped. I just saw two other celebrities walking inside. “Kim Sook-ssi and Moon Heejun oppa just walked inside.”

“Oh jinjja?” I hummed. “See we won’t be the only ones.”

“I guess,” I said as we started walking closer. The people waiting outside definitely had a different reaction than a couple of minutes ago though. There were screams and all kinds of camera flashes. More than likely it was due to the fact that we were holding hands, but oh well, I wasn’t letting go anytime soon. We waved and smiled until we finally made it in the doors, even the crew member looked a little taken back by our presence. Didn’t Taeyeon tell them he was coming?

“Tae you did tell them you were coming right?”

“I said that if I had time I would,” he grinned. “Honestly I just wasn’t going to come without you,” he laughed. We went down the stairs that led to the restaurant. As we stepped closer we could begin to hear voices.

“Wait a minute. You came during our break time!” I froze. Uh, oh. Were they really mad?

“Omo, Taeyeon what do we do?” Whoever that was sounded angry. I guess he didn’t hear me because he just kept walking right on in. Oh god, here we go. “Taeyeon!”

“Wah! Everyone! Look who’s here!” I heard a bunch of gasps and other sounds.

“Omo! TYS!” “Ahh!” “Oppa you made it!” “Is Yuri here?” The last one made me laugh a little but I immediately stopped after the next one.

“Kahi unnie, look who’s here!” Oh hell no. I went down the last few steps in seconds and right through the door way to Taeyeon’s side

“Oh my god! It’s SNSD! SNSD’s Tiffany is here everyone!”

“Ahh you two are too cute!”

“Ah, annyeonghaseyo. Thank you,” I bowed.

“Unnie?” I looked to my right. Nicole! I totally forgot she was on this show! After looking around I saw quite a few people that I knew actually.

“Nicole-ah! I wrapped my arms around her. “How are you? Ooh, what happened to your hand?” It had something wrapped around it.

“I burnt it earlier. It’s alright though.”

“Omo, wait, you two are friends?”

I looked at Hongchul. “Oh, yeah. We have been for a while. We’re both from America.”

“Ah, that’s right! So she called you here?”

“Ani,” Taeyeon cut in. “IU-ah called me and then I called Tiffany,” he smiled.

“Wow,” Hongchul marveled again. “As expected of the idol!”

IU then showed us to a seat where the rest of the members came and talked to us and took pictures with us. They then asked us all kinds of questions about our relationship, which it was actually pretty fun to sit and answer. They asked about how we first met and Taeyeon told them that the first time we ever met he had to dance to our song ‘Genie’ with me on SGB and they loved it. Ahh who knew that that would be such a memorable day after all?

I was kinda bummed out we haven’t had a chance to do this on any other TV show or interview yet, but Oppa said since Taeyeon was so busy with his promotions he really had no time to be on the interviews anyway.

It wasn’t that we hadn’t been getting offers, because we were. They just obviously wanted both of us and not just me. I hoped once he was a little less busy we could get on one or two. Then maybe people would stop assuming so many things online! Ugh, people were crazy!

 The evening progressed rather excitingly too. After we ate came the real fun. The people from outside started coming inside to eat. As soon as people came through the door Narsha and Bongsun unnie immediately announced ‘Sit on our side we have SNSD and TYS!’ They then recruited Taeyeon to help greet people. They wanted me to help too, but I didn’t want to move around too quickly for I didn’t want to push my knee before I got cleared. I mean I had just got the okay to leave the brace off this morning. Walking was obviously fine, but running about like everyone was... I didn’t want to risk it.

After about thirty minutes or so we decided to leave. We said goodbye to everyone and were quickly on our way.

“That was fun Taeyeon,” I said once we were seated in the van.

“You liked it?” I hummed

“I really didn’t think I would at first,” I admitted. After being there with everyone though it was actually really fun. Kahi unnie even came and talked to me off camera. She said to tell Taeyeon thanks for picking her over IU and Inna, even if he didn’t mean it. She said it felt good to finally beat them at something. It was pretty funny. It was even funnier when I surprised her by telling her that he genuinely thinks she’s pretty. She wouldn’t believe me though, she thought he was just picking someone safe to not cause any scandals. Which I thought was ridiculous, but whatever. I wasn’t going to push her.

“I know.” He knew?

“You knew?”

“Mhm. I know you better than you think Fany. I can read you like a book!” I laughed.

“Oh yeah?” he hummed. “What am I thinking right now?”

“You’re thinking…That you want to go to Starbucks right now and get a frappuccino?”

“Hmm,” I voiced. “That’s not what it was, but that definitely doesn’t sound bad.”

________________________________________________________________________________________

I thanked the barista and swiftly found the table Tiffany was at.

“One strawberries and cream frappuccino for my lady,” I announced before setting hers down. She let her eye smile shine.

“What flavor did you get?”

“Caramel! Want a sip?” She cutely nodded. “Oh! Are you excited for the Golden Disk Awards tomorrow? I heard you’re probably going to win the Disk Daesang again this year.” I wouldn’t be surprised at all, their album ‘Oh’ was huge this year.

“I heard the same thing about you guys and the Digital Daesang,” she said calmly after releasing my straw. “That’s really good by the way.” Hold up. 

“You heard we were going to… win?” She nodded. “How,” I laughed. There was no way. I knew we were going to be in the Bonsang category, but to win it? No.

“Because of ‘No Other’ pabo. “ I laughed again.

“You aren’t serious are you?”

“Why would I joke about something like that Tae? That’s a big award.”

“Why hasn’t Hyung said anything about it?” Wouldn’t our manager be the first person that tells us of any good news? Yeah, Tiffany was probably just delusional.

“Doesn’t want to get your hopes up?” I laughed.

“Then what are you doing right now babe?” She grabbed my hand on top of the table.

“I really think you’ll win Taetae. That song was a hit,” She took another sip. “Plus it’s about me, so how can it not?” She slyly grinned.

“Aish, you’re such a brat!” She laughed again.

“You love it!”

“I know, I do.”

We spent the next twenty minutes just talking about random stuff. Mostly about things that had nothing to do with being an idol or about what our schedules were like the rest of the week. Just stupid little topics and I couldn’t have been more content. Was this what normal couples did? Sitting in a coffee shop without a care in the world, besides the person across from you? If it was I could totally get used to this. Watching her laugh at my lame jokes or smile at me in between them made time almost seem like it was slowing down.

“SNSD!”

That was until reality came crashing down.

“Mianhae, Taeyeon, Tiffany-ssi. I didn’t see him coming this way,” hyung apologized. He had been sort of blocking anyone from getting too close to us, well trying to at least.

“Aniyo. Don’t worry Dobin-ah. Maybe we should just go Fany?” She nodded. I held out my hand after I stood and helped pull her up.

“Can we go back to your place? I wanna cuddle,” she said quietly as she leaned on to my arm. I laughed.

“As long as you promise to just cuddle,” I said even quieter. She might act all innocent most of the time, but once we were alone she was definitely the bigger byuntae. “I’m sleepy. I thought this drink would help, but it didn’t do anything!” She laughed.

“I promise Tae. I just want to cuddle too.”

Around twenty minutes later Dobin was dropping us off at my dorm.

“Are you sure you don’t need me to come back? I can give you a ride to your dorm it’s no big deal.”

“Aniyo oppa, I can call my manager or just someone from SM.”

“Yeah, or hyung can give her a ride when he brings Sooyoung back. Depending on how late it is.”

“Right, I forgot he was still out. Well it was fun today, see ya kid, Tiffany-ssi!” We waved as he pulled away.

“Psht kid,” I scoffed. “And to you, Tiffany-ssi,” I mimicked. “I think someone has a crush~.”

“Well, I also think that someone just saw us making out in the back seat, so…” She laughed.

“Oh come on,” I pulled her along to the elevators. Finally arriving at my floor I opened the door, only to be engulfed in a giant back hug. I grinned. “Fany-ah, we haven’t even gone inside yet.” She hummed. “Hop on.”

“What?”

“I’ll give you a piggy back ride to my bed, hop on.”

“I’m in a skirt!”

“Ugh fine, here.” Stepping inside quickly and closing the door behind us I turned back around. She giggled in delight as she then jumped on my back.

“Tae can I borrow a pair of shorts,” she asked on the way to my room. I laughed.

“I doubt I have any small enough babe, but you can-,” I paused. “Soo?” What the hell was he doing? Tiffany seemed to notice too and slid off my back. I watched him pace back and forth a few more times. “Choi Sooyoung!”

“Wha-Oh! Taeyeon-ah! I’ve been waiting for you.” Waiting for me?

“Hey Soo.”

“Oh,” his face dropped a little. “Noona, you’re here too. I didn’t see you.”

“What’s up Soo? Wait, why aren’t you filming?” They were usually gone all day when they filmed for WGM, but it was only like 8.

“Oh, they said they had enough for an episode so they called it a day. I’ve been home for like 45 minutes.”

“Oh that means Sunny’s home too!” Part of the reason she wanted to come with me is because she didn’t want to be home alone.

“Yeah. That’s what I wanted to talk about…” Omo. Tiffany squeezed my hand, for we both had the same idea! Freaking finally!

“I guess Tiff can be here too since she’s bound to figure out anyway.” I could see her eye smile out of the corner of my eye. Jeesh, he hasn’t even said anything yet! “Sit down.”

“Uhm okay.” He sure had a strange way of going about this. I took a seat on the sofa as did Fany. Gah, I was so excited he was finally admitting his feelings. I’d rather it be to Sunny however, but we were a start. “Soo,” I called after thirty seconds of silence.

 “Oh sorry, I was just thinking of how I should say this,” he said seriously. It took all I had in me not to laugh. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him this serious, or nervous. Sooyoung was the epitome of self-confidence. He was never nervous about, well anything really, well besides girls I guess. I remember him being nervous about meeting Jessica, but then after the first few times he started calling her Sica, without even batting an eye. It was weird to see him like this. Ugh, but he still wasn’t talking.

“Soo.”

“Right, right.” He took a deep breath. “Earlier I accidently saw Sunny’s text messages a-and she was texting Hyomin.” He paused.

Oh . That’s not where I saw this going at all.

“She was what?!” Tiffany stood up. “That little-.”

“Tiffany,” I interrupted. “Sit down and let him finish.” I could see she was fuming mad, but thankfully she listened to me. I could hear her breathing loudly through her nose once she sat down though which made me smile a little. She got so cute when she was angry, when it wasn’t at me of course. When she was mad at me I was scared to death.

“Th-thanks. I didn’t get to see what it said, but I did see that it was from him and that she was smiling.” He looked down.

“I’m gonna kill her,” Tiffany said as she stood up again. “I’m literately going to kill her.”

“And I’m just worried because I really like her and I don’t know what to do,” he said softly at the same time Tiffany was yelling. I almost wasn’t even sure I heard him right.

“Oh god Jess is going to kill her too, and him! I swear to god when I get hommppf.” I jumped up and covered Tiffany’s mouth.

“Fany, sHhh. Sooyoung what the hell did you just say?” He looked up.

“I said that I’m worried because I like her too. I like her a lot.”
