Namsan Tower

Into the New World

 

 

 

Everyone had finished buying their locks, and permanent markers, so it was finally time to leave!

“Here,” Taeyeon said as he started putting one of the hand warmers in my glove. “Then I’ll put one in here.” He did the same to his. “And we’ll hold this one together!” I looked at the package.

“Then what about this one,” I asked holding the last one up. His eyes widened briefly before he thought something up.

“We’ll share that one too,” he said before sticking it in his pocket. I shook my head yet again. What a dork!

“Yah, come on,” I heard Sunny call for us.

“We’re coming, calm down Sunkyu,” Taeyeon called back.

They opened the door to go back outside and I was immediately hit with a burst of cold air.

“Oh my god,” I quickly muttered in English. Taeyeon chuckled.

“It’s not too bad babe.” It’s not too bad my !

“How much farther away is it,” I called out five or so minutes later. It had to be in the negative numbers now, god it was so cold.

“I think the cable car place is right up there,” Jokwon said as he pointed.

“Oh thank goodness,” I said as I started to walk a little faster. “Taeyeon come o-.”

“Omo! Yeobo, look how pretty that is,” I heard from beside me. What the…

I turned to see Sunny looking in the window of some jewelry place. Oh my god. This was not the time to be freaking window shopping Sunkyu, I’m freezing my off!

“PD-nim,” she called out. “Do you think they’ll let us come in and play? Sooyoungie still hasn’t got me a proper couple ring.” I felt the anger inside of me… Wait, if we go inside though it’ll be warm! Omo!

Ugh, but I wanted to go to Namsan Tower so bad.

“If everyone else wants to, we can go in and see if they’ll let us,” she replied. Sunny shot quick looks to me and then Gain unnie.

“I’m in! Kwonie you should buy me a better ring too,” she laughed.

“Tiff?” Ugh!

“I really want to go to Namsan though!” I saw her roll her eyes.

“Fany-ah, we have all day. Let’s go in and get you warm,” he said while cupping my cheek with his very warm glove. Yep. That did it.

“Okay, I’m in.”

A couple of minutes later I was inside the shop hugging Taeyeon. He had taken off his jacket and wrapped in around my back. I did feel a lot warmer, but also sort of bad about it too. Ugh, he protested every time I told him to wear it so what was I supposed to do?

I decided to just wrap my arms around him even tighter. Body heat was the best kind of heat there is, in my opinion of course.

“Are you still cold babe?” I nodded. “Aigo,” he said as he rubbed my back. I kissed his cheek and changed my position around so I could see the PD that had just walked back to us.

“The owner said we could play, but,” she paused. “Please be very careful with everything. This isn’t just any shop, I think the cheapest thing in here is around a thousand dollars.”

“Omo,” Taeyeon whispered. I grinned. He was so cute when it came to things like that, never wanting to buy anything too expensive. It made me laugh, for we all know with the amount of CFs, appearances, and just the mad amounts of records they sell, no one in TYS would have money issues for a while. A long while…

“Alright, can we get all of you to go to the counter? You can ask her everything you want about the couple rings, or the thing you saw in the window Sunny-ssi.”

“Ne,” I heard her reply.

“Do we have to go too?” I was just getting warm and well honestly, I did not mind standing like this for a bit longer.

“Of course Tiffany-ssi, it’s your show!” I groaned.

“Fany-ah, you’ll be fine. Here hold on to the hand warmers,” he said before taking them out of his coat pocket. I thanked him and then he took my hand in his.

Making our way to the counter I could already hear Sunny asking about the necklace she saw in the window.  That was until the PD said we were now filming. The conversation took a quick turn.

“Excuse me ma’am,” Gain started. “Where would I be able to find the couple rings at?” Jokwon rolled his eyes.

“Sorry Gain-ssi, we don’t have many couple ring selections here. Our specialty is engagement rings and wedding bands, but the small selection we do have is right over here,” she said while moving to a different display.

“Omo, yeobo! Why don’t we just get real wedding bands since we’re married anyway,” she laughed. “How much is this one?” I got closer to see the ring she had pointed to.

I’ll have to admit it, that was a very pretty ring the way the diamonds caught the lights and the-

“Seventeen thousand dollars.” My jaw dropped. Oh my god. I heard Jokwon squeak just as Taeyeon muttered something.

“Seven-seventeen,” Taeyeon asked. The look on his face was so adorable too. It was like someone had just told a child Santa didn’t exist or something. I laughed.

“Diamonds are expensive Taetae.” He looked down at me.

“I know that Fany-ah, but seventeen?!” He shook his head. “Omo. What’s the most expensive ring you have here?” I brought my attention back to the woman. I was a little curious too.

“I believe the most expensive one we have out for the public to view is around one hundred thousand.” I heard Taeyeon laugh. “We have the most expensive ones locked in our back room’ s vault for the customers that are interested in those as well.”

“Where’s the 100 thousand dollar ring,” Sunny asked excitedly.

“Yah, don’t even think about it,” Sooyoung said quickly. I laughed.

“I just want to see it Sooyoungie.”

“That one would be right over here.” She moved to a counter and pulled out a box. Alright, now I was really curious. I moved away from Taeyeon, just as she opened it. I looked at it quickly and…oh.

“It’s not even cute,” I said disappointedly. For 100 thousand dollars you’d think it would at least be pretty. Jeesh!

“What? I really like it,” Gain countered.

“Aniyo, I don’t like the gold.” Or just the whole thing. It looked weird. I was so let down.

“Which one do you like then,” Taeyeon laughed. “I think this one’s pretty cool.” I looked to see him pointing at a ring with a dimond and a few emeralds along with it. Seriously?

“Seriously?” He hummed. “Taeyeon, that one isn’t cute either!”

“Ah!” I turned toward the sudden shout. It was the PD. “Let’s have a competition!”

“Jinjja?” She hummed.

“Let’s have the wives pick out their ideal ring and then we’ll have the guys pick out theirs. Whoever is the closest to each other will win a prize!”

“What’s the prize,” Sooyoung quickly asked.

“I don’t know yet! I just thought of the competition,” she laughed. “Give me a few minutes.” I saw Sunny hit his arm. Wait a second..

“Am I not doing it since I’m not married,” I asked worriedly. I was sort of excited to pick one out. I was even more excited to see what sort of nonsense Taeyeon picked out, ugh. If he thought that ugly one was cool a minute ago I couldn’t even imagine what his ideal ring for me would be.

Mental note; in the future when he picks one out for real do NOT let him go alone. I repeat DO NOT let him go alone. God only knows what he’d come up with…

“Tiffany-ssi, please come this way.”

“Wha- Oh, ne!”

“Pick out a pretty one Fany-ah, we have to win!” I laughed as I took my place beside Sunny. Yeah, I think our definitions of pretty are way, way off Taeyeon.

_________________________________________________________________________

 

After about five minutes of looking at all the ring choices, I still didn’t have a clue. I know this was all for a game, but maybe if Taeyeon knew what I liked he wouldn’t pick out an ugly one in the future. I grinned.

The future. I couldn’t wait to be married to Taeyeon.

Yes, I said it!

I, Tiffany Hwang, want to marry Kim Taeyeon.

Not anytime soon by all means, but I now know he’s the one for me. Psht

Who am I trying to kid? I’ve known he was the one for… well a long time. I think now, I’m just willing to admit it.

I think the reason I haven’t before is that I was afraid?

I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to continue my career or even stay in SNSD, but why couldn’t I?

My career drive hasn’t changed a bit since I’ve debuted, why would it change now? It wouldn’t right?

Right! I still wanted to be the best Tiffany Hwang I could be and Taeyeon only helped assure that. He made me want to be better, to do better.

I know I’ve been hesitant and just plain dumb on the matter in the past, but all the time around him followed by the busy days and then being separated….Ugh, I exhaled. I knew I couldn’t live without him. I also knew that I hated being away from him. Not in the clingy girlfriend sense, er… well I guess that too, but, I felt happier when he was around. I felt safer, warmer, and just all around better than I did without him. I-.

 “Find one yet?” I jumped a little. Holy crap she scared me.

“Aniyo, Sunny. What about you?” She hummed. What Seriously? “How?”

“One caught my eye earlier so I just had to re-find it.” I nodded. Lucky little brat. I was having no luck. I quickly looked to Gain unnie. Oh good, she was still looking too. I didn’t want to be the last one. “Why are you looking at these?”

“Huh?” She pointed to the display I was looking at. “What do you mean?”

“I think these over here fit your style better,” she started walking toward a different display. I followed her.

“Omo,” I said when I saw the rows of rings in this one. “Sunny you are seriously a genius.”

I was a little uh, well doubtful that she’d know what I wanted, but this was spot on.

“I knew you’d like these,” she laughed. “It’s totally a princess’ style.” I saw her grin and I knew she was teasing, but I really did enjoy these.

“Actually Sunny-ssi, these are cushion cut diamonds,” the sales woman started. “The princess cuts are more square, as you can see the edges on these are a bit rounded.”

They kept talking for a few more minutes while I scanned the display. They had all sorts of patterns, colors, bands, wah~ this was cra-. Omo.

“That one,” I said as I pointed to the ring that had literately taken my breath away. The lady stopped her sentence mid-track and pulled it out for me.

“Very good choice Tiffany-ssi. Would you like to try it on?” Omo! It was beautiful.

“Can I?” She smiled.

“Of course. Do you know your ring size?” I hummed and quickly told her. “Oh, I’m afraid this one is a couple ­­sizes bigger, but you can still see how it looks on,” she said as she handed it over. I gladly took it and placed it on my hand.

“Daebak,” I whispered. This ring was perfect. It had a rounded square shape diamond in the center surrounded by a row of tiny diamonds. Oh my gosh. Even the band was full of tiny diamonds. “I choose this one.” I heard Sunny laugh. “What?”

“Nothing,” she chuckled again. “You just look totally in love with that.” Did I? Omo, was I? I looked at it again. “How much is that one ma’am?”

Oh no. My eyes shot up to look at her. I didn’t want to know. That would totally ruin my feelings about it. I began to speak, but it was too late.

“That exact one is about twenty thousand.” My jaw dropped and my heart broke a little. I would never let Taeyeon spend that much on a silly ring. Aish… “They run even higher depending on the other diamond grades and everything else." I sighed.

“Take it. I can’t look at it anymore.” Sunny laughed again.

“Oh come on Tiff it’s for the show.” My eyes widened. Oh god, I was totally looking for real. I started to fake a laugh.

“I-I know, it’s just that it’s depressing that it costs so much,” I quickly lied.

Whew. That was close.

Not too much later Gain unnie chose hers. The PD had us then sit facing away from the rest of the store and the boys took their turn.

I was so excited to see what he picked, as well as Soo and Jokwon. I mean this was a pretty interesting group of guys. I had no idea what to expect from them.

It didn’t take long for them to choose either. I’d say at most fifteen minutes? That worried me even more actually…

Now it was finally time for the reveal. Gah, I was getting way too excited over this. Tiffany calm down!

“Alright, who wants to go first?”

“I will,” Jokwon confidently came out. He showed the ring he picked and Gain showed hers… They weren’t similar. At all. Yes! This gave me hope. The Adam couple started bickering while I had to speak up.

“We’ll go next,” I said. He couldn’t have done worse than that.

I quickly showed him mine, while he just smiled. Omo, did that mean we were close?

He showed his and I felt all warm again. They weren’t that similar, but they also weren’t that far off. The one he chose was a square cut instead of the rounded square and his had a plain simple band while mine was studded.

“Why’d you choose that one Taeyeon-ssi?” He laughed.

“They said this one was called a princess something, and I think that fits her pretty well.” Sooyoung pushed him a little, but I only smiled.

I was just glad he didn’t pick something totally hideous. Maybe he wouldn’t be too bad at it in the future. I felt my face warm up as I thought about it even more.

“Alright Sooyoung-ssi, go ahead.”

“Don’t worry Sunkyu, we got this,” he said before revealing his. Her eyes bulged out of her head as she showed hers.

Holy , they were practically identical.

“Ani, that’s not right,” Taeyeon laughed. “You totally cheated!”

“I did not,” Sooyoung loudly defended. “I just paid attention to what caught her eye earlier!” I saw the PD laughing too.

“Arasso. The Soosun couple wins! You two will get to go to the restaurant in the Namsan Tower in one of your upcoming episodes.” Uhh! That was so unfair! This was our show! I pouted while I heard the two of them celebrating beside me.

“It’s okay babe. I’ll take you there sometime too,” I heard him say as he wrapped an arm around my waist.

“Jinjja?” He nodded. “Wah~ thank you Taeyeon.” He laughed as he pecked my forehead.

“It’s what I’m here for pabo, don’t thank me. Oh,” he paused. “Give me the rings I’ll go take them back to the lady.” Huh?

I looked behind him to see that Jokwon and Sooyoung were doing it already.

“Oh, right,” I laughed. “Here.” I handed him both of the rings I had and continued on to put on my coat. We were unfortunately going back in the cold now. Ugh!

I guess we did kind of waste the better part of an hour in here just playing around. Ah, and I still really wanted to put our locks up on the tower.

I put my coat on, followed by Taeyeon’s scarf and one of his gloves and smiled. I then tried to stick one of these stupid hand warmers down in it, but I failed miserably. Ugh, where was my Taeyeon at?

I scanned the room to see that he was talking to his manager. Ugh! We made eye contact and he quickly scurried to my side.

“What’s wrong babe?” I held up my glove and the hand warmer.

“Make it go,” I whined. He threw his head back.

“Aish, you can’t even do this?” I shook my head and he laughed. “Well I guess you really do need me then huh?” I grinned as he put the warmer in the glove with ease.

“I really hate you, how did you do that?” He laughed.

“I’ll never tell!” i made an angry face. Ugh, what a brat.

“Fine, then tell me what your manager oppa wanted.” He tilted his head to the side.

“Hyung?” I nodded. “He asked if I wanted anything hot to drink, I think there’s a Starbucks around here or something, I don’t know. I told him to get me a hot chocolate so we can share.”

“Psht! Share?” He nodded. Oh my… “Oppa! Make that two hot chocolates!”

_________________________________________________________________________

 

We walked for another five minutes or so before finally making it to the cable car.

“Ah, thank goodness,” I commented.

“Hurry let’s go in, it’s so cold,” Tiffany called. So we did. The six of us along with the four camera men and PD all got aboard. I guess 2AM and BEG’s managers were going to wait on ours to get back before they came up.

Whatever, I was more concerned about my shivering girlfriend.

“Fany-ah, how are you this cold?” I mean it was pretty cold, but everyone else seemed to be alright. I was fine.

“I-I don’t know.” Aish!

“Here.” I took off the glove I was wearing and put it on her hand. She wasn’t even going to pretend to object this time. I then pulled down he scarf that covered her face and cupped her cheeks with my warm hands.

“Oh my god,” she said in English. I laughed. “Keep them there.” And I did, until we reached the top a few minutes later that is.

Everyone hopped out and started to make their way to the main building. We were then informed we would be doing the Wishing Well first, and of course the Wishing Well and the lock area were in two different buildings. Ugh, I was just glad the first part was inside because I knew the lock area was not.

Once we made it to the area I quickly took my coat off and put it over her shoulders. “Better?” She nodded happily. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her in to me. “Now quit being cold. How do you expect to go hang our locks up?” She laughed.

“I’ll write the message while I’m inside and run out there really quick.”

“Aish! Way to ruin the moment,” I teased. She laughed again.

“I’m just kidding Taetae... Where’s the bathroom?” A crew member quickly cut in and told her where it was. She thanked him and turned back to me. “I’ll be back. Sunkyu, come with me!” She grabbed her hand and drug her along with her. I shook my head and stepped closer to Soo.

“What are you going to wish for?” I looked at him.

“Me?”

“Who else pabo?” I laughed. “Yeah, I guess you’re right. Let me think,” I said as I started humming. What should I wish for?

Ahha! Duh, Taeyeon!

“That she’ll say yes.” He grinned down at me.

“Yah~, I don’t think you have to worry about that. She looked totally happy while picking out rings.” I laughed.

“Still! You never know! Who knows what she’s thinking.” He hummed.

“Are you gonna say that in front of her?”

“Of course not Soo. I’ll think of something else if they make us say our wishes aloud.”

“Uhh, you know that this camera has been here the whole time,” he said while pointing to the cameraman just a few feet away. I hummed.

“Oh, I know.” He looked confused, but I just laughed. “What are you wishing for?”

“Hmm, that Sunny and I can share our first kiss today,” he said boldly.

“Omo. Jinjja?” He nodded. I knew he was only saying that because of the cameras, but I had to give a good reaction too. “Ayye,” I said as I pushed him. “Our maknae is growing up!”

“And our leader is growing down,” he shot back.

“Yah! Why you-.”

“Taeyeon!” I turned to see an angry looking Tiffany, “Be nice.”

“You’re lucky she stopped me punk,” I teased.

“Alright let’s do this,” the PD called out.

Thankfully they didn’t have us tell our wishes aloud, but that didn’t stop Tiffany from asking me once we got done throwing ours in.

“I can’t tell you Fany-ah~.” She pouted. “I’ll tell you Sooyoung’s though.” She groaned.

“Fine, but you’re no fun.” I stuck out my tongue at her and then told her what Soo had said. Her whole face lit up. “Should I tell Sunny?” I laughed.

“I was going to if you didn’t.”

“Wah~! Sunny-ah! Come here,” she waved her over. After she told her Sunny’s face lit up just as Tiffany’s did minutes ago and I shook my head.

“Is that so,” she asked playfully. I hummed. “Hmm, we’ll have to see about that then.”

_________________________________________________________________________

Finally we had made it to the second floor of the plaza, which was where the ‘love locks’ were. I heard the brunette beside me ‘ahh’ in excitement. I was pretty excited too though.

I wanted to see what she was going to write to me. Unfortunately there wasn’t anywhere to go inside to write on the locks, but thankfully the wind had died down so it wasn’t as cold.

“Where do you want to hang them Taetae?” I looked down at the smiling girl.

“Wherever you want Fany-ah,” I responded. She let out a happy squeal and started walking. I followed her around until she suddenly stopped causing the cameraman to almost run in to me.

“There!” She was pointing to a spot where there weren't many other locks. “Is that okay?” I nodded happily.

“It’s perfect. Let’s sit down so we can write on them.” She gladly hummed and took a seat on the heart shaped bench. I sat beside her and then she let herself slide down into me as she giggled like a little kid. “Aigo,” I exhaled. “Here.” I took out the pink heart and handed it to her as well as a permanent marker.

“Thanks,” she said shyly. I grinned as I then took out the two other locks and then of course another marker. She already had the lid off of hers and had begun writing. I tried to sneak a peek, but she caught me. “Yah!” I laughed.

“Mian!” She elbowed me lightly.

“It’s okay this time, but babe,” she questioned. I hummed. “I don’t think we’ll be able to write our messages on this one.” What! I looked to the lock she was holding up. “I just got finished writing our names and I’m already out of room.” I sighed.

“Yeah I guess they are pretty tiny.” I thought for a second. “Let’s just write our names on these and then our message on the big one?” She nodded.

“Sounds good to me! Here, give me the big one. I’ll start mine.”

For the next five or so minutes she had the lock and her back was turned toward me. I thought it was kind of silly since I was going to see it in a few minutes anyway, but I let her have her fun.

“Okay, I’m done,” she called out and then handed it to me. I grinned.

“Can I read it?” She laughed.

“If you can,” she trailed off. What the… I groaned.

She wrote it all in English. I could pick out a few words, like my name and ‘I love you,’ but other than that it was pretty much hopeless. Gah, listening and speaking the language was one thing, but reading it? Nooo.

“You’re such a brat you know that.” She laughed evilly.

“I know, but I wasn’t sure exactly how to spell some things in Korean and I didn’t want to mess it up.” My anger dissipated.

“Alright, I’ll let this one slide,” I paused. “But you have to tell me what it says after I get done. Okay?” She hummed.

“As long as you read yours to me too.” I held up my pinky.

“Promise?”

“Promise,” she said with a grin.

I took a few minutes to think of what I wanted to say then I started writing.

I wanted to hit myself for being so cheesy after I read it over one more time, but I couldn’t. It was all true. Every single word of it was how I felt about her. I smiled.

“All do-.” I felt a jab in my stomach. What the hell?

“Tae look.” I looked to where she was pointing and I saw Sooyoung and Sunny.

“Okay? What am I looking at?” I wasn’t quite sure what was going on.

“Soo just got done writing on it and gave it to Sunny.” I laughed, had she been watching them?

“Uhh, okay?” I looked back to the couple across the way. I still wasn’t sure why she thought it was such a-.

Oh my god.

They kissed!

They actually kissed on camera!

I stood up, but was quickly pulled back down by Tiffany.

“Yah,” she whisper shouted at me. “Don’t ruin their moment Tae, we can tease them later.” I saw her grin and knew she was right. I sighed.

“Fine, but I’m totally getting Soo for this,” I laughed. Tiffany did too but suddenly stopped.

“What did you say before I cut you off a minute ago?” Huh? Oh!

“Right! I said I was all done.” I held up the lock. Her eyes lit up with excitement.

“Read it, read it!”

“Should I?” She quickly nodded and I grinned. “I don’t know~,” I teased.

“Tae~. Please?” I took a deep breath. It felt kind of awkward reading this while the cameras were here, but I guess people were going to see it one way or another. This was also pretty good practice for what was going to happen in a few weeks.

“Alright. Ready?”  She nodded excitedly.

I cleared my throat.

“Stephanie Hwang Miyoung,” I started. I heard her forcibly breath out her nose. “Yah!  If you want me to read it you better behave!” She threw her hands up.

“Ani, I’m sorry! It’s just an immediate reaction to hearing my full name,” she laughed. I shook my head.

“Okay. Stephanie Hwang Miyoung,” I paused to see her scrunching up her nose at me before I continued. “You are the love of my life, my precious gem, and my everything. I hope we can stay like this forever. I love you so, so, so~ much.” I looked up to see her looking straight at me. She had no reaction.

Crap. Was it bad? Not enough?

“I was going to write more, but I-I started running out of room,” I said as I looked away. I should have picked out a bigger lock. Oh god, this was embar-

Suddenly I felt hands on my face followed by lips on mine. Omo.

So I didn’t screw up?

She pulled out of the kiss and then wrapped her arms around me. I heard her sniff. Oh no.

“Fany-ah, are you… crying?” I pulled out of the hug so I could see her face and sure enough, she was. Okay maybe she wasn’t crying, but there were definite tears built up. She shook her head.

“No. I’m not,” she said cutely, obviously trying to keep her voice from cracking. I laughed.

“So it wasn’t bad?” She shook her head with a cute smile this time.

“It was perfect, just like you are Tae.” I pulled her in to me again.

“I love you Fany-ah.” She took the lock and looked at my side again. Omo! “Read your side now. In English,” I added. She gave me a questioning look. “I’m serious.”

“Will you understand it?”

“Uhh, probably not all of it,” I laughed. “Translate it and then read it again.” She groaned. “Please~,” I whined. “I love listening to you speak English.” She took a deep breath.

“Fine. To my Taetae,” she started in English. After that I could really understand, but I wasn’t sure if it was because I didn’t know the words or I was just too mesmerized by her y English speaking skills.

Alright, it was the latter.

“Did you get any of that?” I nodded.

“A few things,” I laughed. She rolled her eyes and started again.

“Okay… To my Taetae; I love you so much! I don’t think you’ll ever know how much you mean to me,” she paused to tell me that she added a few hearts there. I smiled and told her to keep going. “Right… I never wanna be without you, okay? You’re mine for eternity!” She immediately looked at me to see my reaction, which was probably somewhere along the lines of a dumb grin at this point.

I watched her lips turn into a cute little grin as well.

“You’re amazing,” I said in English. She started laughing. “What?”

“Amajjing?” I nodded. She only laughed even harder, throwing her hands together.

“Why~,” I whined. I thought I said it right…

“It’s amazing babe, not amajjing,” she laughed. I couldn’t even tell that much of a difference. “Don’t pout, your way is just as cute, okay?” She laughed again. “Omo! Let’s put our locks up now.”

Right! I almost forgot.

Quickly taking the three sets of keys out of the boxes, we opened all of the locks. Tiffany locked hers around mine and then we slid the top part of the larger lock in where ours overlapped. It almost didn’t fit, but we managed. I handed it to Tiffany and she locked it on to the railing.

“There, now we’re stuck together,” she said as she smiled back. I grinned too because she had been stuck with me since day one, whether she liked it or not. “Wanna go pick on Sunny and Sooyoung now?” I laughed aloud at that.

“Lead the way.”

_________________________________________________________________________

Fortunately when we reached them, we noticed that they were done filming. I guess we were just waiting on the other two now. I grinned.

“Sunny-ah~!”

“What Tiff,” she said flatly.

“We saw your kiss~,” I sang teasingly.

“They kissed,” Jokwon asked excitedly.

“They did, and we saw it,” I cheered back.

“Omo, yeobo! They beat us. It took us nine months,” he said as he turned back to them. “How long did it take you two?” Wait what? Didn’t they just answ- Oh. He was looking at us.

“One month. Exactly,” Taeyeon added. Gain and Jokwon both ‘ooh’d loudly.

“You guys are quick!” Ugh! We weren’t talking about us! I wanted to tease Sunny some more while she couldn’t get me back for it. I laughed a little.

“So Sunny, what made you kiss him, hmmm?”

“Wasn’t it the message on the lock babe?” Taeyeon began looking at  the locks that were near trying to find theirs. “Ahha! Got it.”

“Taeyeon please,” Sooyoung spoke up. He laughed.

“Soo it’ll all be revealed in a few days anyway.” I heard Sooyoung groan. “Dear Sunkyu-yah; you brighten up my day every time I see you. I hope our relationship will keep growing and growing because you’re the best wife a guy could have,” Taeyeon read. I awed and earned a quick glare from the blonde.

“They’re totally real,” Gain accused. We all started laughing.

“I hope not,” Taeyeon said. Wait what? “If they were they’d take over our spot as the top real couple.” I laughed again. Omo, that actually worried me for a second.

“Yah,” I said teasingly. “No one can take our spot Taetae.” Everyone laughed again until the PD interrupted us.

“Alright we’re almost done today. We’ll film you all leaving and then that’ll be a wrap.”

“Jinjja?” The PD nodded and walked back to where she came from.

It was just starting to get dark though, so I guess I understood.

“Babe, what time is it?” He looked at his watch.

“Almost six. Why?” I sighed.

“Duh, pabo. I want you to come over.” His eyes widened.

“J-jinjja?” I hummed.

“We can watch a movie and you can make me delicious food.”

“Maybe you should make me delicious food,” he laughed.

“Yah~, I’ll just help you,” I said cutely. His smile grew as his laugh continued. “Let’s ask you manager.” I started to look around but I didn’t see him. Hmm. Wait.

I didn’t even see ours. What the.

“Sunny-ah?” I heard her hum. “Where’s oppa?” I saw her start to look around too.

“Huh, I don’t see him or TYS’s manager.” I turned toward Taeyeon.

“Don’t look at me,” he laughed. “I just noticed they were gone too.” Omo!

“We didn’t even get our hot chocolate!”

“Holy crap, you’re right,” Taeyeon said. “I’ll call him.” I watched him pull out his phone and make the call.

Turns out they were both waiting for us in the vans. They didn’t see the need to come up here with us. What bull right? What if we got hurt or something? Omo, or what if Sunny or Sooyoung accidently said something.

They were being very careless. Ugh…

I wouldn’t let them spoil my mood though, this only meant that Taeyeon would be allowed to come over. I laughed. This was totally blackmail material.

We finished shooting for the day and slowly but surely made it to our van. We said our goodbyes to the Adam couple and got in. Taeyeon and Sooyoung came with us as well for Sooyoung didn’t want to stay at home alone with Yuri. I guess he was busy memorizing his lines and he didn’t want to bother him or something. Whatever, it would be fun to have them both over.

It would almost be like a real double date now.

We got back to our dorm around twenty minutes later where Sooyoung immediately put a bag of popcorn in our microwave. I heard Sunny scoff.

“What? I thought we said we’re going to watch a movie? By the way, who the hell gets butter free, salt free popcorn,” he asked holding up the box. “This should be called no fun popcorn.” I heard Taeyeon laugh, but I wasn’t!

“People who don’t have the metabolism of an alien,” Sunny teased.

“That’s right,” I agreed. “We can’t just eat everything and get away with it Soo.”

“Oh come on Fany-ah,” I heard Taeyeon say as he wrapped his arms around me from behind. “You look great.” I felt his lips on my neck. Oh no! I quickly turned around in his arms.

“No,” I said quietly. “Not tonight.” I knew he’d been thinking about it since I told him to come over, but we couldn’t do that with the other three people in the dorm. I heard him whine.

“But Fany~.”

“Don’t Fany~ me Kim Taeyeon. I want to just as bad,” I said quietly. I had been missing his touch for quite a long time if I do say so myself. I heard him groan again.

“Fine,” he said as he pulled me in to a hug. I grinned.

“Next time you’re all mine,” I whispered huskily in his ear. I felt him freeze momentarily before his hands started making their way south and-

“Yah, not in the kitchen! Jesus you two. Control yourselves,” Jessica shouted. Taeyeon laughed.

“Mian, Jessica!” She shook her head. “Oh! How’s the acting thing going?” She shot him a look.

“What do you know about that?” He laughed again.

“You’re holding a script pabo-yah. What was it called? ‘Wild Romance’?”

“You remembered?” He remembered? I didn’t even remember… He hummed.

“I sure did. What are friends for huh?” Something was off…

“Well, thanks? I haven’t heard anything back yet though. Oppa said he should hear something by the end of the week.”

“You know, I think you’ll get the part for sure.” She squinted while she took another look at him. I wasn’t sure where this was all coming from, but I would sure find out.

“Yeah, well thanks Taeng. Tiff can you hand me a water?” I hummed and grabbed a bottle out of the fridge we were standing in front of.

“Here.” She thanked me and was back on her way. Once she was out of ear shot I turned right to Tae. “What the hell was that?” He grinned. Uhhm.

“That drama she’s auditioning for.” I nodded as he started laughing. What the? I was so confused. “Yul is the lead.” My eyes almost popped out of my head.

“Jinjja?!” He nodded. “Oh my god.” Wait. Jess hasn’t said anything though? “Does she…does she not know?” He shook his head.

“I don’t think anything has been announced yet has it?” I shrugged.

“If she knew Yuri was the lead, I’m sure she would have said something,” I said. He hummed.

“I guess you’re right…Hyung suggested Jessica for the role too,” he added.

“Seriously?” He nodded again. “Oh my god! They’ll almost have to get close this way.” He smiled.

“Yeah, if Yuri will quit being such a punk.” Huh?

“What do you mean?”

“I don’t know,” he started. “He’s been weird ever since the whole Yoona thing.” I hummed.

I forgot about that. I remembered him telling me something about how Yoona had turned him down or whatever. On top of that, she started going on dates with other actors? Ugh, what a right?

I’ve seen the actors she had been rumored with recently too and I just didn’t understand...

Yoona was so cute too! At least go for one of the cute actors, jesus.

Whatever floats her boat though…

“Well maybe once he starts hanging out with Jess it’ll cheer him up,” I smiled.

“I hope so. I hate when he starts getting moody.” I pouted and rubbed his back.

“Don’t worry babe. Everything will work itself out,” I comforted. “Let’s go watch the movie, I think those brats started without us.”

_________________________________________________________________________

The next two weeks went by slowly, very, very slowly. Mainly because I didn’t get to see Tiffany the whole time. I also only had a few schedules to keep my mind busy, so that didn’t help. I really wished Lee Sooman or whoever our next album/single producer was going to be would hurry up and pick from the group of songs I gave them. At least then I could be doing something! Gah, it was so boring the rest of the days though.

 I did however get to text my eye smiling queen every day and even call her a few times, which made it a little better.

SNSD has been in Japan promoting and performing the whole time. They were doing so well too, which was great, it’s just that...

UGH. I wish they could be doing well in Korea instead so I got to see her more often!

Calm down Taeyeon. You’ll see her tomorrow. Oh god. Tomorrow.

We would be performing at the MBC Live Valentine’s Day Special. Along with both of our groups and numerous others. It was going to be so exciting, but very, very nerve-wracking all in one. I would be preforming four songs tomorrow! Four! One with TYS and then three duets.

Aish! Just then I heard the door click. Omo!

“Yuri-yah,” I called to the newly arriving figure. “How was the filming?”

“Ah~! It was daebak,” he grinned. “The car I get to drive around is so awesome Taengo, oh my god.” I laughed. “I’m serious. Hyung that might have to be my first real purchase.” The look on Hyung’s face killed me. “What?”

“Yuri you’re not buying a bright red sports car…” I laughed even harder.

“It doesn’t have to be red.” Hyung gave him another hilarious look. “You know, you’re a huge party pooper.”

“Ne, ne. I know…So Taeyeon,” he paused. I looked at him and hummed. “Are you all set for tomorrow?” I hummed again.

“Yep, everything is already packed in my backpack,” I grinned. He sighed as his face became worrisome. 

“Are you sure about this Taeng?” I let out a chuckle.

“I’ve never been more sure about anything ever before,” I responded confidently. His hand clamped down on my shoulder.

“Alright, well tell Soo I’ll be here to pick you guys up at 8.”

“EIGHT?”

“Yes Yuri, eight. You have a meeting about your next single with LSM. He’ll probably talk about your drama too.” I heard him groan, but I was more than okay with it. I mean I was just thinking about our next release, and well the fact that this meeting won’t be about Tiffany and I was a big relief. “Arasso, get to bed you two.”

“Ne goodnight hyung.” “We’ll see ya,” we called out.

“You too Yul. Night,” I said before stepping in my room.

I laid down in my bed and tried my hardest to fight off the sleep. I really wanted to wait until Fany called me. They were supposed to be coming back to Korea tonight, so I told her to let me know when she got here, but I couldn’t do it.

I wasn’t even sure when I fell asleep. All I remember is that I woke up to three missed calls and five or so texts. I grinned. She’s back!
