Confirmation

When I Look at You

"And lastly, I know one more thing; she's nothing like you and you will never be anything like her."

 

The guys of EXO, along with Jonghyun, Krystal, and Minho hung out in their dorm for most of the day. Just talking, hanging out, acting like the regular people they are.

 

Minho looked around unconsciously; he narrowed his eyes, "Where's Chanyeol?"

"He's filming Roommate. He doesn't sleep here anyways. Whenever we don't have a schedule he's off with them." Baekhyun answered, "I'm actually guesting soon, so look out for me!"

The rest of the guys laughed, Minho nodded his head, trying so hard to ignore the fact that Jonghyun & Krystal were flirting right next to him on the couch.

"How's he doing there? I don't get enough time to actually watch the show anymore sadly." Minho said.

Tao sighed, "I mean, he enjoys it. But it's pretty rough having a crush on someone and being from SM Entertainment."

Minho narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

Chen pursed his lips, "Chanyeol has had a mad crush on Nana ever since forever. He's already admitted that she's his ideal type."

"Well what's so wrong about having a crush?" Minho wondered, never experiencing something like that until liking Krystal.

Kai chuckled, "We just debuted, that's one. Also, you already know how strict Soo Man is about the dating rule. That's why he rarely gets scenes with Nana shown on TV; our fans are psycho. They would go the ends of the Earth to ruin Nana and Chanyeol doesn't wanna hurt her like that."

Minho listened, taking a quick side glance at Krystal. If I ever did anything to sabotage their relationship, it would ruin all of us. He looked down, clearly upset.

 

Lay was about to speak up, seeing the sadness in Minho's face; but before he could talk, Jonghyun patted Minho's shoulder.

"Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?" Jonghyun asked.

Krystal looked at both of them; wondering what was going on.

Minho just looked at Krystal one more time before standing up and following Jonghyun into Luhan's room.

 

"What's up?" Minho asked awkwardly.

Jonghyun bit his lip, looking at him, "I just feel like you and I aren't close anymore."

Minho sat down on Luhan's bed, while Jonghyun sat on Xiumin's. "What do you mean?"

Jonghyun chuckled, "I don't man, you're my best friend but I feel like I don't know you anymore!"

Minho narrowed his eyes, "So you decided to talk to me during our visit to EXO's dorm?" he laughed nervously.

"Well," Jonghyun shrugged his shoulders, "Krystal's close with all the EXO guys anyways; I'm sure it's fine for her. Anyways, has anything new been going on with you?"

Minho pursed his lips, "Well, one thing. Sulli and I aren't really dating anymore. I wanted to end things with her officially but Soo Man is making me keep the relationship because of our drama."

That's all I needed to hear. Jonghyun touched his shoulder, "You'll find someone man."

Minho looked him in the eyes, trying to see if he knew about his feelings for Krystal; but he couldn't tell. The only girl I want to be with is in your arms.

"How are you and Krystal doing? Seem to be pretty strong." Minho forced a laugh, hitting him back.

Jonghyun smiled, "We are going pretty strong. I haven't liked a girl so much before." he paused, "She's the kind of girl that you don't give up on; she deserves the world and more." Jonghyun said, watching how his reaction would be.

Minho's heart felt like it was taken out of his chest and thrown on the ground over and over. He wanted so hard to feel happy for his best friend; but everything inside of him wanted to strangle him.

"Th-that's great." Minho forced a smile, his lips. "How about we just talk more later? I don't wanna leave the rest of them waiting."

Jonghyun let Minho walk out first with his slumped shoulders. Jonghyun looked off to the side, Minho, why don't you just admit that you like her? he bit his lip, I hate watching you lie to yourself.

"Hey Minho, Sulli's been calling you on your phone." Xiumin picked up his phone; handing it to Minho.

Minho tried to look concerned as he took the call and went out in the hallway; "Yes Sulli?"

Sulli pouted, "Minho, can you please come visit me? I'm not feeling well and I'm all alone at my dorm."

He looked around to make sure no one was around to hear their conversation; "Sulli, I'm not obligated to do those things anymore. It should be a clear fact now."

She rolled her eyes, blowing on her nails that she just got done; "Do you realize how fast I could ruin your career right now?"

"What bull sht are you saying Sulli?" Minho asked disgustedly.

Sulli smirked, "Imagine what people are going to think of you when they hear that you cheated on me with Jonghyun's girlfriend."

Minho couldn't believe she would stoop that low; "That's not even true."

"So?" Sulli responded, "With all the pictures already taken of you & Krystal and the way you don't comfort your own fcking girlfriend can make things pretty damn believable."

"I can't believe you're stooping this low Sulli; I thought I knew you better." Minho shook his head.

Sulli smirked, "Looks like you didn't know me at all."

After that last comment; she hung up the phone.

 

Minho went back into the rooms and said his goodbyes to his friends.

As much as he wanted to stay wherever Krystal was; he needed to protect everyone's reputations as best as he could.

 

---

 

"You know, Minho's been acting pretty strange lately." Luhan pouted; seeing one of his friends like that always made him upset.

 

While most of them were talking about random things like Roommate or Minho; Kris & Lay were texting each other while they were right across the room from each other.

 

(Black = Lay, Red = Kris)

 

"I heard Minho's confession." Lay said first.

"What confession?"

"The fact that he likes Krystal; I knew it was true."

"I've been having a hunch about it for awhile tbh. How about you?"

"Hell yeah, Minho's feelings for Sulli are long and gone too."

 

Kris looked up from his phone; looking at Jonghyun & Krystal.

Jonghyun had his arm over Krystal's shoulder and he whispered a joke into her ear; evidently making her laugh.

 

"Do you think Krystal likes Minho?"

"She's dating Jonghyun bro."

"So? Haven't you seen how she looks at him all the time? She's definitely been checking him out. How much you wanna bet this is all a cover up?"

"Kris, you over think."

"You wanna bet? I will ask her right now."

"Okay fine, but don't do it in front of everyone."

 

Kris set his phone down, looking at Krystal once again; "Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?"

Krystal pointed at herself, nodding her head; "Sure."

She looked down at Jonghyun, giving him a quick peck on the lips; "Be right back."

 

Lay stood up as well; following them into Kris's bedroom.

 

---

 

Krystal looked around awkwardly. Although she's known Kris for awhile now and has always been comfortable around him; she couldn't help but think about Kai's party.

As for Lay, she never really had the opportunity to talk to him before; so that made things 10x weirder.

 

Kris knew he should apologize for what happened at the party; but he had no idea how to do it with Lay standing right by them.

"First I just wanna say sorry." Kris said, his eyes widening so Krystal would get the hint not to mention it.

Krystal laughed, nodding her head, "Past is past. Is that all?"

Lay just shrugged off whatever the apology was about and moved on; "How long have you and Jonghyun been seeing each other?"

She pursed her lips, thinking back, "Well we've been going on dates ever since the filming for In Your Embrace began; so like 5 months now? But we've only been official for around 2 weeks."

"So do you really like him?" Kris interrogated.

Krystal laughed, "What do you mean? Of course I like him."

Kris narrowed his eyes; "Would you be able to say you love him?"

Krystal looked up at him as if he was crazy; "I don't throw around the love word that easily Kris; you should know that by now."

Kris nodded his head; "Fair enough. Okay, easier question: can you truthfully say that you only have feelings for Jonghyun and nobody else?"

With that question; Krystal froze. She knew what they were onto but she didn't want to admit it.

"Okay, this is pointless." Krystal stood up; but Lay grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

"Don't worry, we're not hating on you for this." He chuckled, "We just wanted confirmation because Minho likes you. He likes you a whole fcking lot."

Krystal stared at Lay, then at Kris; who just nodded his head repeatedly in agreement.

"Wh-what?" Krystal asked; releasing Lay's grip on her.

"I just felt like you should know. Because if you have the same feelings Minho does; then I'm sorry but it isn't right to continue a relationship with Jonghyun like this." Kris advised.

Krystal tried to fix the thoughts in her head; "Minho is with Sulli."

Lay rolled his eyes, "Sulli doesn't even matter right now. Minho has had this imagination that Sulli is the perfect girl for him; but God knows that he deserves better. And frankly, I think you would be the best fit for him."

Krystal shook her head; "I'm sorry but I don't think Minho likes me."

"God Krystal you've always been blind." Kris scratched his head, "You're fcking beautiful and you have an amazing personality. It's not that hard to fall for you and I don't think you understand that."

Krystal and Lay froze at Kris's sudden comment.

Lay's eyes widened, staring at his friend, "Are you confessing your love too?"

Kris stood there awkwardly, forcing a laugh, "Sorry, I'm just trying to make a point."

She nodded her head slowly, laughing a bit afterwards; "I'm sorry, but until I actually start to feel that Minho likes me; I can't just break up with Jonghyun because he actually makes an effort to make me happy. And that's something that's not hard to fall for as well."

 

---

 

Minho knocked on F(x)'s dorm; impatiently waiting for someone to open up.

As much as he didn't want to be there; nor see Sulli's face for any reason, she had too much to use against him.

 

"Hey!" Victoria greeted him with a bright smile and he bowed; doing the same.

"Are you going somewhere?" Minho asked; hoping she wasn't going to leave him and Sulli alone.

Victoria nodded her head, "I'm meeting up with Changmin." she looked at the time, "I actually have to get going; I'll see you later! Sulli's in her room."

She left so fast; Minho didn't even get to say goodbye.

 

He closed their dorm and walked into Sulli's room; just to find her sitting by the laptop with nail polish opened up right by her.

Minho rolled his eyes, "I knew you weren't really sick."

Sulli turned around, looking up at Minho. She shrugged her shoulders, "I had to make up a reason for you to come here."

"You're being so immature and selfish that you would rather sit on your at home instead of filming for our drama that's still on-going?" Minho shook his head, "What has gotten into you Sulli?"

"I could ask you the same damn thing!" Sulli stood up, throwing her hands up in the air.

Minho shook his head again, "Don't even fcking compare me to you Sulli; you're reaching a new low."

Sulli scoffed, "Ever since that Krystal girl came into our lives; all anyone cares about is her, her, and her!" she yelled, "She's done nothing but ruin my life."

"Ruin your life?" Minho repeated, "She fcking chose you for a drama that shouldn't even be given to someone like you."

"Excuse me?" Sulli raised her eyebrows, "What the hell do you even know about Krystal for you to defend her like this?"

Minho's blood began to heat up; "I know she's caring and doesn't let stupid things get to her. I know she's funny and loves to laugh at the cheesiest jokes. I know she's young but more intelligent than almost anyone I know. I know she's beautiful; not just on the outside, but even more so on the inside. And lastly, I know one more thing; she's nothing like you and you will never be anything like her."

Sulli couldn't believe the words coming out of his mouth and the pain that actually hit her. She couldn't help but begin to tear up; "Get out."

"I've been trying to for awhile." Minho picked up his things and slammed the door shut.

 

---

 

The next day at filming was by far, the most awkward one yet.

 

People began to notice how distant Minho & Sulli were from each other and the fact that they didn't exchange any words with one another. And if they did, it was short and choppy.

 

Jonghyun also wasn't there because of a photoshoot for a magazine with Key.

 

Minho found it as his duty to pay even more attention to Krystal; trying not to make it obvious.

But he noticed that Krystal wasn't the same Krystal he had gotten to know.

She looked upset, paler than usual, and definitely not in a healthy state.

Minho also noticed that she wasn't wearing any type of makeup at all; not that she needed it, but she usually had at least blush to make herself look awake.

 

"Okay guys," Krystal coughed in her sleeve, "I think it's time we get to where Sulli & Ha Neul almost," she paused once more, coughing again, "kiss."

Ji Won walked up to her, touching her shoulders, "Are you okay? You don't look good; I'm not trying to be rude."

Krystal looked at her with tired eyes and forced a smile, "I-I'm fine, just tired."

Ji Won nodded her head, walking away; wishing she could do something to help.

 

Sulli didn't bother to ask if Krystal was okay; nor did she even care to begin with.

"Can we just get this over with? I wanna go home." Sulli asked.

Ha Neul looked at Krystal, just as concerned as anyone else.

Before he stepped into scene with Sulli, he walked over to Minho.

"Watch out for her; she doesn't look so hot today." He pursed his lips.

Minho looked at Krystal again, who sat down in her director's chair. He nodded his head, "She's probably just really exhausted."

 

---

 

Throughout most of their filming, Krystal rarely got up from her seat.

She constantly was rubbing her head and fanning her face from how hot it seemed to be; whereas everyone else was quite surprised the AC was even working that day.

 

"Krystal, you sure you okay?" Jin Hyuk walked up to her again, asking her for the billionth time.

She slowly nodded her head, wiping her face; "I'm just, tired."

He nodded his head, leaving her alone once again.

 

---

 

While Minho & Ji Won were in the middle of filming their scenes; they both took glances at Krystal to make sure she was doing alright.

Both of them knew that she wasn't; but she refused to accept their help.

 

Sulli crossed her arms over her chest; rolling her eyes while she sat down in a seat.

"Can I have water please?" she asked an assistant, who bowed and went to grab one right away.

As she waited, Sulli looked at Krystal with an immense death glare; "Funny how you're a mess the one day Jonghyun isn't here." she mumbled, not knowing the assistant who she asked for water was standing right behind her.

The lady glared, walking the opposite direction. She was sick and tired of being pushed around by Sulli.

The assistant took the water initially meant for Sulli and gave it to Krystal instead.

 

Sulli's mouth dropped, "That btch."

She got up, heading to her dressing room; slamming the door shut.

 

Jin Hyuk jumped at the sudden noise; scratching his head, "Minho, you should probably go check up on her."

Minho wanted to decline that offer; but he still had to play the role of her boyfriend, even if for just pretend.

He nodded his head, walking into the direction of Sulli's dressing room.

Until he heard everyone screaming.

 

"Krystal!" Ji Won covered ; tugging on Ha Neul.

Ha Neul ran over to her; he saw the whole scene from her standing up from the chair to her collapsing on the ground.

Minho turned around, dashing towards the scene. He slightly moved Ha Neul out of the way, picking up Krystal's fragile body.

He touched her forehead, feeling how cold she was; but watched sweat trickle down her face.

Minho bit his bottom lip, moving strands of hair out of the front of her face; "Krystal, Krystal!"

 

Sulli heard the ruckus going outside of her room and finally chose to come out; only to be upset again.

"What the hell?" she narrowed her eyebrows, seeing Minho get up from the floor with Krystal in his arms.

 

Minho lifted Krystal's small body up; running out as fast as he could.

Before he left, he looked at Ji Won; "Call Jessica and Jonghyun; Kai too if he's not busy and tell them to meet me at the hospital."

And with that, he went out to his car; laying Krystal down in the back seat completely unconscious.

 

Ji Won left the room; dialing all the numbers Minho ordered as fast as she could.

 

---

 

Ha Neul knew the timing was wrong; but he couldn't believe the nerve of Sulli to not even show any sympathy.

 

"Hey!" He called out from behind her.

Sulli was on her way back to her dressing room as she turned around, "What?"

Ha Neul scoffed, "What?" he raised his eyebrows at her, "Our fcking director is on her way to the hospital right now and you don't even make any attempt to help the situation?"

She shrugged her shoulders, "Not my problem."

"Well it fcking should be." Ha Neul spat back, "Yet you wonder why Minho doesn't love you anymore. You're inconsiderate and you don't care about anyone else except you and your own fcking happiness."

Sulli stood there; dumbfounded by his words.

Ha Neul shook his head once more, "Well you know what, you never deserved Minho. In fact, I'm praying for the next guy who falls for you; because it's basically like throwing themselves in Hell."

 

After speaking his mind, Ha Neul followed Ji Won out of the building to follow Minho & Krystal in the hospital.

 

 

I think I can honestly say, this was probably the most dramatic chapter I've written for this story so far.

Especially the Minsul & Ha Neul/Sulli parts; like FINALLY SOMEONE SPOKE UP AGAINST HER.

Jonghyun is beginning to realize that Minho likes Krystal; judging from how he's acting now, do you think he's mad or will he accept it?

Kris & Lay told Krystal that Minho likes her; when will she believe it?

What's wrong with Krystal?

I especially found how Minho described Krystal to Sulli was one of my favorite things I've ever written for a fan-fiction.

I had so much fun writing this chapter; just in case anyone was wondering. xD
