Chapter 7

Two Different Worlds

"So what does this mean?" asked Ailee as she and Young Bae sat on the floor together, as their was no couch in the studio yet. 

This was the question that Young Bae had been asking himself every since he started to develop feelings for Ailee. The kiss was fantastic and magical, but came with it a lot of consequences. "I don't know Ailee."

"Well, I think the first thing that we can change is that instead of calling me by my stage name Ailee, you can call me Amy or Ye Jin. It will make this a little easier and les awkward." suggested Ailee as she looked Young Bae, trying to make eye contact with him. To be honest, she was still in a little daze from their kiss and kept going back to the moment when Young Bae started to kiss her back. His lips were so soft and gentle and she just felt so warm in his presence. 

"Well Amy, to be honest I really enjoyed that little moment we just had. I am trying to wrap my head around it and I have to say I am still a little shocked, but I can't help but be happy about it. And I also--"

"Wait." interrupted Ailee. Young Bae looked up at her and Ailee said, "Before you continue, can you look up and into my eyes when you talk?"

Young Bae locked eyes with Ailee again and his heart started to race again and his face started to get a little red, "Yeah I can do that. I just don't because for some reason whenever I look into your eyes my heart just starts racing and I become a nervous wreck and I don't know why. And to be honest, we have only known each other for maybe a month and I am already feeling this connection with and it is a little overwhelming. But I like it and I don't want it to stop". 

Young Bae said the last part of his little speech a little quieter but remained eye contact with Ailee. When Ailee heard the last part, she couldn't help but a smile a little. 

She said, "I know what you mean. I have never had so much chemistry with someone so quickly before and I agree that although its kind of fast, I don't want it to stop either." Ailee paused and looked at Young Bae, trying to read his emotions but he just looked back at her with a mix of worry and hope. Then Ailee asked, "So now what?"

After a couple minutes of silence. Young Bae broke it by saying, "Amy." As soon as Ailee heard Young Bae call her by her real name and not Ailee, it caught her attention and she locked eyes with Young Bae.

"It's pretty obvious that there is something here. But, I think that we still need to get to know each other. And trust me this is not me rejecting you at all. I promise." said Young Bae as he tried to gauge Amy's reaction. "Instead, think of it as an acceptance. I am accepting that we both feel something special here, but at least for me I don't want to rush anything and have one of us to get hurt...........and I can't go through that again." 

Amy looked at Young Bae curiously and asked carefully, "What do you mean again?"

Young Bae did not realize that he had said the last part out loud, as he wanted to keep that to himself. He hesitated and looked at Amy. There was something welcoming about her and he just wanted to let her know everything about him. So, he sighed and said, "Let's just say that I've had by heart broken before."

"Well tell me about it. Because if we are going to get to know each other better before we make anything official, I want to know you." said Amy as she moved closer to Young Bae and held his hand. 

Young Bae looked at Ailee and looked down at their hands and smiled a little. He told Amy about he and Anna. How they were high school sweet hearts, how they went to college in the same city and of course the day when Young Bae was going to propose to her. When Young Bae got to that part of the story, he got extremely nervous and had to try really hard to keep his voice even.

"So when I get home, I have a dress, a note and a bag of rose petals. I was going to have a trail of rose petals going to our bedroom and have the dress laying there with a note. The note was going to tell her to put on the dress and meet me at our favorite restaurant. And then after the restaurant, we were going to walk around where we went to college and reminisce about our college days. And on campus there is a fountain where during our senior year, we were jokingly saying that this would be the stupidest place for someone to propose. This was because the fountain was really old and no one really cared for it anymore, there was graffiti all over it. And so I was going to propose to her there because I thought that anywhere where Anna was, it would be a special place." 

Young Bae paused at this part and took a deep breath and continued, "But, as soon as I openned that door to our apartment, my world stopped. In front of me was Anna ontop of some guy, , in our living room." 

All Amy could say was, "Oh my God. I am so sorry Young Bae. If I had known that this was how you got your heart broken, I definitely would not have asked you to tell this. I would still be a wreck right now. I am so sorry."

Young Bae looked over at Amy and saw her face was wrinkled with worry and sadness and he smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay. I am slowly getting over it and her and you are helping with that."

Ailee smiled at this and said, "Am I really?"

"Yeah, you definitely are. I feel so comfortable around you and I feel like I can just be myself. And there is never bull."

"Well you know that I always keep at 100%" winked Amy at an attempt to lighten up the mood.

Young Bae laughed at her and looked into her eyes and said, "It's like I was meant to meet you." And before Ailee could react, Young Bae leaned in a planted a kiss right on Amy's lips. Again, the world stopped for a just a moment. He pulled her face and body closer to deepen the kiss a little and Ailee kissed him back just as passionately as she wrapped her hands around his neck. 

When they separated, Ailee looked into his eyes and said, "You are pretty good looking" and right after her addicting laughter filled the air and Young Bae couldn't help but laugh with her and in that moment Young Bae knew that Amy really was a special girl.
