“Oh my God! What do we have here? Hyun Joong ? Nadia?” Mandy and Jung Min announced together (including the other three members of SS501 Watching ) as they saw us heading over to them. The group was standing at the top of hill and was just about ready to ski down it. “Hey Na, shouldn’t you be in bed considering you’re really sick?” Mandy said as she winked at Me, thinking she was covering her friend’s excuse.

“Hey Mandy! I saw that! Sorry to break it to Ya, but I already know everything,” Hyun Joong confronted with a laugh.
 I also laughed _Still couldn’t believe the whole thing and was in cloud nine _ as we finally reached the group.

“Hold up! What the hell’s going on here? Would someone please like to inform us- well me at least, on what just happened?” “Kyu Jong”  interrupted as he raised an eyebrow. He was obviously confused to the fact that I was with Hyun Joong; “Don’t get the wrong idea “Kim Kyu Jong” as it seems she is here just to learn ski from Hyun Joong!” Mandy clarified to everyone and made sense of everything.

“Well then Hyun Joong, so you are going to be her private tutor??!! Heheee…can you please….. tell us whose idea was this? ” ‘Kim Hyung Jun’ said as he came and stood next to Hyun Joong and smacked his waist. “Whoa there Pal ! That’s one thing that let’s just say you’ve never, NEVER done for anyone before! he said while pointing to me, I think you’re acting strange!!! ” Hyun Joong couldn’t help but laugh at this comment. “MINE,” he admitted proudly and caused me to blush. “um…well…Hyun Joong said that he will be helping me because he knew I’d be falling on my face 99.9 percent of the time just climbing up this hill ” This caused everyone to burst out laughing.

“Boy! do you people like standing around a lot and doing nothing,” Jung Min interrupted jokingly,

“Yeah, I agree with Jung Min. Let’s make the most of our money,” Young Saeng added. “Last one down the hill is a…erm...um….help me out Hyun Joong.”
“Last one down this hill is a rotten egg!”
“Gee thanks Hyun Joong, very helpful. I could’ve never thought of that one on my own,” Young Saeng said sarcastically.

“Okay! The last one down this hill has to claim the title as a wuss and on top of that, they have to buy everyone lunch! As for the wuss part, Young Saeng, you already filled the spot!” Hyun Joong teased. After Young Saeng heard the last bit, he gave Hyun Joong a playful push on the back, which caused Him to lose his balance, fall on his stomach, and slide down the hill face first. Unfortunately, waiting at the bottom of the hill for Hyun Joong was a pile of snow, which he then crashed into headfirst.

“Oh my God! Hyun Joong! Are you okay?” I questioned with concern, kneeling beside Him as i reached him first. “You didn’t break anything, did you?” i added brushing the snow off his face and placing his head on my lap.

Hyung Jun reached Hyun Joong second and couldn’t help but admire what i was doing.The way i was helping him without hesitation. He couldn’t help but stand there speechless.  “Yeah, sorry Pal! I didn’t mean for you to pull a stunt like that! I was just messing around.” Young Saeng said as he reached Hyun Joong third.

“Yeah…, I’m fine. I sure caused a scene didn’t I? And Young Saeng, don’t worry about it. We’re cool.”
“Hyun Joong, are you sure you didn’t break anything? Quick! How many fingers?” i said as the rest rushed to Hyun Joong.
“Yeah I’m sure. Thanks Na!. God, it’s good to be me!” Everyone stood there confused at his last remark.
“What the hell are ye talking about?” ‘Park Jung Min’ inquired.

“Well, I may have made scene in here but there is a bright side to this. I…KIM HYUN JOONG do NOT have to claim the title as the wuss and buy all ye hungry goons lunch!

And Nadia, to answer your question, you’re holding up seven fingers, which just happens to be the number of lunches someone’s gonna buy. So, who’s gonna cough up the dough? ‘Cause it surely ain’t gonna be me!” Hyun Joong laughed his head off. Everyone looked at each other, trying to avoid the subject. No one seemed to be willing to volunteer. Who in their right mind would?

“You know what? I’ll do it. I’ll be called a wuss; I don’t care,” I whispered catching eyes with Hyun Joong. i could see in his eyes that he was just amazed by me.I quickly turned away from his gaze and looked at Mandy. Even though his head was still in my lap i could see the confused expression on his face, although it happened to be upside-down.

“You’ll what? Na! are you insane?” Hyun Joong questioned as he got up to his feet and brushed the snow off his body.
“Ya heard me. I’ll buy lunch.”
“Um… Na, I’ll do it. You don’t have to. They are my friends so I’ll buy everyone lunch,” Hyun Joong insisted trying to be a gentleman towards me , 

“No Hyun Joong! I’ll do it. And if you try to stopping me- let’s just say DON’T! I owe you my life and I’ve always wanted to treat you to a lunch, you know I don’t like to be indebt!” I declared with laughter.

“Whoa! I like this one. She’s so considerate Hyun Joong!!! ” Jung Min said as he put his arm around Hyun Joong’s shoulder. I then turned to Hyun Joong again and i could see “‘that’” look in his eyes once again. However, i couldn’t really tell what he was thinking. After everyone had had a good laugh, they all headed to the chalet for lunch, which I the wuss was to pay for. However, I would never be a wuss in Hyun Joong’s eyes.

Once everyone had a nice meal, they all returned to their skiing. They all split up and then agreed to meet in the lounge in the evening to head to dinner. So me and Hyun Joong sat in the lift together. For a short time there was a silence between us , Hyun Joong was looking at the distance calmly and i was feeling warm and fuzzy inside and playing with my fingers,

Till I started, “I have some questions!!! I keep thinking why are you so sweet to me? Why do you even talk to me or how can you even spare your time with a girl like me?”, he smiled ( one of those crazy divine smiles)

“To be quite honest…I don’t know. It’s just that when I saw you that day, I saw a young lady who she was hurt…. And now… when I see you today, you’re full of life, full of happiness, full of strength…What I want to tell you is… It feels as though I have known you my entire life- and in life times before. Actually Along noting was too different for me! But ever since I saw you, You made me feel so different - and that’s a good thing. I like to experience the things that I’ve never done before, You make me feel as though I am completely living in a new world. As he said the last words I was extremely fainted. (Dear God….i can’t believe this, it’s just mooooooooooooooooore than a dream)

The soft cool breeze was patting our hair and it was like that we were flying among the sky, I spoke softly to him while looking him in his eyes. “Can you do me a favor? He shook his head “ What is it?” my voice trailed off because i didn’t know how to tell him what i wanted to say. “Yes?” He questioned “I don’t know how to say this to you... But……. would you please pinch me to make sure i’m not dreaming?, I whispered turning my head away from him, “ PINCH YOU?! He broke in to a laugh and turned his head to face me. I did feel a bit uneasy about my request and tried desperately to waiver from it , so i wouldn’t embarrass myself. “please be honest with me. If what i wanted from you makes you feel troubled, you don’t have to do this. For sure you think I ‘m crazy!,”

“Na?” suddenly he asked and as i turned my head, he Cupped my both cheeks with his tow hands ~“ You’re NOT dreaming! This is all real!!!! You know… when you talk like that, it just makes me feel…”  He said and laughed again. I felt a bit shy but let myself to lay my head on his shoulder… Hyun Joong who was surprised by my action smiled and wrapped his arm around me (Oh my! if only time can stop still right now!!!)

After that, we finally decided to get off the lifts and do some skiing. This is where i had a great fall. It was just the first of many which i would encounter that afternoon. One of them was when Hyun Joong was trying to give the ski pole and I took it without hesitation, but when i did, i lost my balance and i fell to the ground. Another fall occurred while I was fooling around. And he was insisting that I should go down the slope first and then he would follow me; however, I was refusing to do so. And he gave me a gentle push trying to encourage me, which sent me falling on my back, but i immediately grabbed him by the arms and pulled him down with me. Then after laughing like mad, we just got back up and brushed ourselves off.  We kept doing that all afternoon; falling down and getting back up. At one incident when I was on the ground, i heard a faint cry of distress.

“Shh…, Hyun Joong! do you hear that?” I asked and motioned him to listen attentively.
“Hear what?”
“Can’t you hear that? It sounds like someone is crying out for…help. Here, listen carefully.”
“YES!, I do and it sounds like it’s coming from over there,” he said, pointing in a direction, which was scattered with trees.  Just as he finished talking, he undone his skies and ran in that direction. I then got up and ran right behind him.

I was so close that i could hear him panting. (Gosh!, he was cute in any shape! ) But I tried not to pay too much attention to his breathing and concentrated more on the cries. Just as we got closer to the sound, we could see a little figure forming in front of us. It was actually a little boy who was leaning against a tree with his legs pointing outwards; a ski lying off in the distance; his left hand was covered with his right and he was crying in pain.

“Oh my God! What’s wrong?” I questioned.
“Oww! Oww! It huuuuurts!…Make it stop!” the child managed to say in between sobs as he unveiled his left hand. Hyun Joong was shocked at what he saw, which was a deep cut in the palm of the boy’s hand and his right glove was drenched in blood.
“Okay, Kim Hyun Joong, calm down, for the boy’s sake! You’ve done this before! You have your certificate!” he thought to herself. “Okay Na, I need you to divert his attention off the pain. Just ask him some simple questions while I try to mend his wound,” he whispered.

“I’m on it! Hey there buddy, what’s your name? No, wait! Let’s see if my psychic powers are working today. Your name is… um…it’s “Sang Wook”…No no! That’s not it! It’s… “Joon Ho” right?” The little boy was amused by my so-called ability that he started to laugh.
“That’s not it. Mommy says not to tell strangers my name. She says not to talk to them.”
“Ah darn! Well I’m Nadia and this is Kim Hyun Joong and he’s gonna fix you up, okay?” I looked up at Hyun Joong and he looked back at me with an expression on his face that said ‘you’re doing good! Keep it up!’ When i said this, the boy realized that he was hurt and was shaking now from shock. I noticed this and diverted the boy’s attention.

“Well, what’s your favourite colour?”
“Pink!”
“No way! That’s my favourite colour too!” i exclaimed with joy. Unfortunately, the little conversation was interrupted. Hyun Joong had wrapped his scarf around the boy’s hand and then placed his glove on top of it, and was in need of another one. “Na, can I borrow your scarf?” He whispered hoping the boy wouldn’t hear him. Unfortunately the boy’s attention was now on his wounded hand again and he looked as though he was about to cry once more. I immediately gave my scarf to Hyun Joong and changed the subject by quickly asking the boy another question.

“ So what’s your favourite Group? Let me guess… Girl’s generation !”
“I don’t like them but my brother likes to watch them.” While I kept the conversation going Hyun Joong took my scarf and tied it around the boy’s neck to treat his shock and warm him up preventing any hypothermia.
“All done!” he interrupted me and the boy again. We were so into our conversation that we were surprised when he spoke and we just looked at him. The little boy looked down at his hands and saw that his blood- stained glove was now replaced with a scarf and Hyun Joong’s glove. “Let’s get you to your parents now.”

“But-but I can’t move my legs! I think they’re broken,” the boy was about to burst into tears again. Fortunately Hyun Joong cut in.
“That’s not a problem! I can take care of that! I can carry you back to the lodge.” Without any stalling, I picked up the boy’s skies; went back to ours and got them as we made our way to the lodge.
