Quote: “Normal is an ideal. But it’s not reality. Reality is brutal, it’s beautiful, it’s every shade between black and white, and it’s magical. Yes, magical. Because every now and then, it turns nothing into something.” ~ Tara Kelly

Jonghyun P.O.V

“Why did you come up with the idea of double date?” I asked Key annoyed as soon as Minho left “You want me to kill him out of jealousy?”

“You suffer from “Jealousy disease” I see. No contrary to your belief I came up with the double date idea so that you could keep a close eye on Minho and prevent him doing things that will make Jessica love him even more. Dinohead hyung, I gave you the chance to show Jessica that you can be better then Minho!

“Oh…I see! Well in that case, I owe you one!”  I said to Key without putting to much thought in it

 “Nah…no need to feel like that, just give me your credit card and we are even. I spotted a gorgeous pair of shoes at the mall a few days ago and I desperately need to have them but dad kind of froze my bank account so I am broke!” said Key finally revealing his true intentions

“Oh…you are so evil! I should have figured out that you do nothing for free!”

“Duh…I am not some fairy.”

Jessica P.O.V

*This one…or this one! Ah, so annoying why it is so difficult to find the proper outfit! I bet that he’ll look awesome while I’ll look like a country bumpkin. I wish Yuri would be here to help me.* I screamed in my mind .It was past lunch time but I still haven’t decided what to wear. Feeling hopeless, I decided to go to the only person I knew it was good enough to help me also known as Sergeant Key.*I must be seriously crazy if I am doing this because I am aware that It will this decision it will cost me a lot.

*knock**knock*

“URH…WHO IS IT? WHY CAN’T ALL OF YOU LET ME SLEEP!” shouted Key from behind the door making me give a second thought to my previous decision “COME IN JESSICA!” I heard a few seconds later *Busted! Now I can’t back down!* I thought then I slowly opened the door and tiptoed in the room

“So what can I help you with? Let me guess, you need me to help you with your outfit. Am I right?”  asked Key from behind the covers then I nodded his head in response “Fine I agree, I’ll gladly help you!” said Key not protesting at all which was really awkward

*Wait, there must be a catch. He never does things for free, he’s Key after all!*

**What is the catch?** I wrote then I gave Key the  note

“I am glad to see that you’ve become smarter. I want you to give me a detailed report of Jonghyun’s date with Yuri!” said Key

*It doesn’t seem that hard at all. I’d better take the deal before he asks for something more complicated*

**DEAL** I agreed then I let myself on Key’s hand

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MinhoP.O.V

*Why did I decide to help hyung ? I should have known that it will be troublesome! I can’t believe that instead of sleeping and training I am actually acting as a cupid for my older brother! Shouldn’t it be vice versa?*

“Minho, your date is here!” announced Key then Jessica came out looking stunning. For a moment I could feel my heart lose its normal rhythm still I recovered just in time to see Jonghyun drooling over Jessica

“You…you look gorgeous! Your beauty is breathtaking!” I said to Jessica then I took her hand in mine, all this of course under Jonghyun’s disapproving look “Hyung, why are you sitting there looking so dumb? Shouldn’t you hurry up to pick up Yuri?” I teased hyung who probably was cursing me in his head

“No…she said she doesn’t want me to pick her up so we agreed that I’ll meet her in front of the new flower shop that opened in the city center.”

*I should have predicted this…that woman is way too independent. She seriously needs someone to teach her the meaning of the word “together or friends”*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuri P.O.V

*I am freezing to death. Where is that guy? Why did I even accept this when I am clearly aware that the thing I should do is to stay in the house as long as that man is around instead of wasting my time on the streets? I would better return.*

“Surprise!” said Jonghyun jumping in front of me out of nowhere scaring me to death ”This is for you!” said Jonghyun  as he gave me a bouquet of red roses 

“Thank you!” I said trying to sound as grateful as possible though in that moment I felt like strangling him for scaring me like that. “WOW…I’ve never seen you looking so pretty!” I said too Jessica who looked stunning

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jonghyun P.O.V

“Minho, is a really lucky guy to date you!” said Yuri making Jessica blush

*She is blushing because of him…she is actually blushing because of Minho! What it is wrong with her? I am obviously way better then Minho*

“Let’s proceed with the date!” I suggested before giving Yuri the chance to say some cheesy line like “You’re made for each other” or “You two make a good couple” that could make Jessica’s imagination to go wild “So what should we do first?”

“First we should take the girls to a good restaurant because on my way here I heard Jessica’s stomach grumble a few times. You are hungry am I right?” said Minho offering Jessica one of his one million dollars smile. His care obviously melted Jessica who admitted blushing that she was indeed hungry so we headed towards on of those expensive and very exclusivist restaurants where apparently Minho had free access

*How is that even possible? Last time when I wanted to come to this restaurant I had to make a reservation one month in advance , but all he had to do is say his name and the guard let him in like he would have been some celebrity .*

“Minho, how come that they let you in so easily? Did you make a reservation beforehand?” I asked curious

“No. I don’t need to!” said Minho then he ignored me and called for the waiter not giving me too much attention .He asked the waiter to announce the chef that he was there then a few moments later a very tall and handsome guy came in “HEY, Minho , long time no seen! Did you finally remember about visiting your hyung?” said the tall guy

“Do I know you?” said Minho jokingly which earned him a smack from the tall guy which seemed to hurt a little

*Even the heaven is on my side! That’s what you get for dating my girl.*

“So why are you here? Let me guess, a date, am I right? And this once must be your girl right?” said the tall guy pointing towards Yuri “ You are exactly Minho’s type! I wonder how such a fine girl could fall for such a stubborn mule! I bet it must have been that charismatic stare or maybe that one million dollars smile, right?”

“Hyung, stop acting like a love guru because it doesn’t suit you! You got everything wrong, my date is her and she is Jonghyun hyung’s date! Instead of wasting my time why don’t you prepare me one of your specialties? My girl is very hungry!” said Minho then the tall guy immediately left to do his job

“Why did he believe that your type is Yuri? Did you bring here another girl before Jessica? Yah, little brother don’t you know that is totally unacceptable to bring your ex girlfriend and your current one in the same place?”

*Sorry brother but as you said before in love and war everything is allowed!( Minho said this in chapter 16)*

“There is no such a rule! And for your information the girl hyung met was not my girlfriend she was just…she was just a very important person to me!” said Minho serious for a moment looking quite vulnerable

“Does she have a name?” I asked curiosity taking over me “Do I know her?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MinhoP.O.V

*You know her…you know her even better then me…because she was your dearest person! To you she was 1000 times more precious then to me!*

“Of course she does, just that you won’t find out!” I said refusing to say more knowing clearly that that person’s name could have a very destructive effect for hyung “Stop asking me these questions right now? You wouldn’t want to make Jessica jealous right?” I asked teasingly knowing very well that that was hyung’s initial intention

“Here is your food!” said Changmin hyung placing on the table his most expensive and tasty dish

“WHOA…it looks delicious!” said Yuri excited for a moment looking like a little kid in front of a candy shop which was totally different then her usual cold/cool image

“That it is because it’s indeed delicious! Anyway, I think I should take my leave! Minho, you’ve got a nice girl. You’d better take care of her! If he ever makes you cry, come to me, I know the perfect way to make him come back to you on his knees! Enjoy your meal!” said hyung after giving me his “blessing” then he left

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jessica P.O.V

After the tall guy left, we started eating. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm thanks to the multitude of Christmas decorations that were placed everywhere, yet I felt really unhappy…because I realized how uncomfortable it must be for Minho to date me. Compared to Yuri and Jonghyun who were able to talk about everything, because of me Minho was forced to wait for me to write each answer to his questions.

*I must be such a useless girlfriend! I am only standing in your way! I can’t ask you hold a long conversation like Yuri, I can’t ask you the basic questions like “Are you hungry?” or “Are you sleepy?”, I can’t even say your name! I feel that I am just a burden to you!*

“Jessica…is there something wrong? You don’t like the food?” asked Minho whispering in my ear

**No, it’s really delicious!** I lied, not about the food of course but about my mood

“I don’t buy that, you barely touched your food! Come on, tell me! What is wrong with you?” insisted Minho but I decided its better not to tell him about what I felt because I didn’t want to make things even harder for him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MinhoP.O.V

Predicting that Jessica would not confess anything in those conditions I decided that it would be better to have a serious conversation with her between 4 eyes so I took Jessica’s hand and dragged her towards the only place that was quieter: the balcony. Although this problem was not on the list with attributions for a fake boyfriend yet Jessica was an important friend to me so I was worried for her.

“What is it? What saddens you?” I asked Jessica but no answer came from her so I decided to persuade her in another way “A relationship is all about trust, don’t you trust me?”  I asked again so this time Jessica gave in and told me what was bothering her

**I feel that I am a burden to you because I can’t even have a basic conversation with you like Yuri has with Jonghyun?**

*So that was it! She feels that she is not good enough for me! Well I guess it’s my responsibility to make her understand that she is just as good as a normal girl and that where is love words are not even necessary.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jessica P.O.V

“So you are worried because you are not “normal” right?” asked Minho then I nodded my head confirming that, that was indeed the problem that was bothering me “Normal is a relative word, maybe for some normal means being tall, for others normal means being pretty. You say that you are not normal because you can’t speak but I can speak so that means that I am normal? I am the son of a mafia boss, instead of going to school and learning some complicated math problem I learned self defense moves and to shoot with a gun. So how normal does that make me? I don’t seem that normal anymore right?! Everyone is normal until you get to know them! So instead of worrying uselessly for a problem that it doesn’t even exist I think you should have more confidence in yourself! Have confidence because you are a really beautiful person, a person whose beauty shines from there!” said Minho then pointed towards my heart

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jonghyun P.O.V

“Go!” said Yuri breaking the silence that sat between us five minutes ago

“What?” I asked not understanding what she was talking about

“ It’s no use to act in front of me. I know that you like Jessica…it’s obvious. Your eyes never leave her. I also know that I am just a way for you to make her jealous!” said Yuri making me feel guilty

“I am…” I tried to apologize but I was interrupted by Yuri

“No you are not! If you were sorry you wouldn’t had used me in first place! Don’t worry, I don’t resent you! Since I knew it from the start, I’d say is partially my fault too! Go…go to her!” repeated Yuri so I left to search for Jessica and Minho

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuri P.O.V

*Jonghyun… you were very cruel! Thou I know that I am not worth because I am defect still I wish you would have given me a bit of face and at least for a moment you would have hesitated but you didn’t.*

“Miss… are you crying? Do you need a napkin?” asked a waiter making me realize that tears had walled up in my eyes

“No…I am fine!” I lied then I took a bite from my food

*I am fine…I am Kwon Yuri! I am stronger then this!*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Narrator P.O.V

“You are a really beautiful person, a person whose beauty shines from there!” said a tall guy to a blond girl that was sitting in front of him then one moment later the blond girl hugged  him. The tall guy looked surprised at first but then he saw an intruder looking at him so he let out a small smirk then hugged the girl back.
