5 days after...

Charlene's POV:

I will be discharged today from the hospital. I got myself ready and waited now for Changjo and my boyfriend. Well...better say, fake boyfriend. Suddenly the door opened. SHINee and TEEN TOP came in. Key, Niel, Ricky, Chunji and Changjo ran towards me and hugged me. I laughed and hugged then all back.

"We missed you!!!" the boys said. "Charlene!!!" Onew screamed and ran towards me with a plastic bag. He then stopped in front of me.

"Are you hungry?" he suddenly asked with a huge grin. I laughed 'cause I know he took chicken with him.

"Hey, Charlene!" Jonghyun and CAP also hugged me.

"So~ heading back to the apartment?" Minho asked.

"You didn't even visit me for the last few days!" I exclaimed and he laughed.

"Kajja! We still have to bring a girl to the airport!" Key said and we headed out.

"Bye Charlene!" the nurse who cared for me said. "Bye Miss Yoon!" I said back and waved my hands.

 

In the van...

"Changjo! Why is she always sitting beside you?!" Ricky screamed and pulled me to him. Suddenly Changjo pulled me too.

"Yah~ Don't pull my girlfriend around!!" Taemin suddenly said. He grabbed my waist and pulled me on his lap. All their eyes widened except Changjo's.

"G...g...girlfriend?" Onew asked shocked. I gave Taemin a what-the-hell-did-you-just-do look.

"Hyung and Charlene came together just a day after L.Joe hyung broke with her up!" Changjo yelled through the van.

"BWOH?! L.JOE!!! WHY THE HECK DIDN'T YOU TOLD US?!" Chunji yelled at him. L.Joe just sat there dumbfounded.

"Guys! Calm down! We're not together!" I then said to calm them all down. They all sighed in relief.

"But why girlfriend?" Minho asked.

"Um..."

"John wants her back, that's why we're doing this," Taemin explained.

"Do you mean John Pineda?" Ricky asked and we nodded. They then all said "Oh...~" as a response.

"I thought it would be real..." I heard someone whispering. I looked to the direction from where it came from and saw Key with shrugged arms.

"When is he coming?" Taemin then asked me.

"They will come to the airport," I told him. I looked at the others. They all gave us strange stares.

"What?" I asked and raised an eyebrow. They then spoke again random stuff. I then felt a light kiss on my shoulder. I turned and saw Taemin leaning his head on my bare shoulder. I was just wearing a top, that's why.

"You know that the others can see it besides, John isn't here~" I whispered. He looked up to me and smiled.

"Why? We also have to do this in front of the others~" he whispered back and kissed my cheek. I felt my temperature heating up. I turned my head to prevent him from seeing me embarrassed.

"Guys! We're here!" Jonghyun said and we all got out of the van.

 

Taemin's POV:

We went up to Yoogeun's apartment. Key hyung opened it. Suddenly Yoogeun and Elizabeth ran towards Charlene and hugged her. "CHARLENE!!! Don't scare me again!!!" Elizabeth screamed.

"Noona!!! I missed yooouu~~" Yoogeun whined and hugged her waist. When Charlene entered the living room, another person hugged her. Lol~ They must have missed her.

"Charlene, I missed you~~~" I guess that's Hyungseok's voice.

"You just visited me yesterday. How come you already missed me?" she asked him and he shrugged. Then the rest of Minho hyung's family welcomed her too.

"Where's Rochelle?" Charlene then asked.

"She's in the bedroom~," Elizabeth told her and she got in it. I went to Elizabeth.

"Is she sleeping?" I asked her. She shook her head and sighed.

"No~ She's still sad about the fact that she will leave today. Besides, she still thinks that Charlene's in the hospital," she told me and I nodded.

 

Rochelle's POV:

I usually wanted to visit Charlene yesterday, but since Key told me not to do it because of her condition, I stayed all week in the apartment. Of course, I went shopping with the others, but it somehow didn't make any sense. Suddenly I heard the door opening. I did not bother 'cause I'm too tired for it. Suddenly a familiar voice spoke.

"Did you miss me?" I turned my head and my eyes widened. I jumped off the bed and hugged my cousin tight. She tapped my back.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU'RE HERE?!" I suddenly sobbed.

"Come on honey~ It was just a week~," she told me in a soft tone but I shook my head.

"It's been like a MONTH!!!" I cried. She chuckled.

"I have a present you know?" she suddenly said. I let go of her and sat down on the bed. I wiped my tears away while she went out of the room. I waited for a few seconds. She then came in again with a book.

"Tada~," she said and handed it to me.

"A...book..." I said and looked disappointed at it.

"Not just any book. Open it," she told me and I did it. There were lots of pictures. Pictures during our holidays here in Korea. I was amazed and watched every site of it carefully.

"Do you like it?" she then asked.

"How...how did you do these pictures? I mean, you can't picture yourself five meters away from the camera!" I said and she smiled at me.

"The others made them~," she told me and I hugged her.

"Just because you will fly back, it doesn't mean that we won't see forever~," she said and I let go of her.

"But what about your birthday? I mean, you're staying here 'till I don't know when..." I pouted.

"Before Christmas, I will be back again," she said.

"C'mon~ We still have to bring you to the airport~" Charlene cheered and we got out of the room.

 

Everyone was talking. L.Joe went towards us and scratched the back of his neck.

"Charlene...can I talk to you?" he asked and Charlene nodded. I went towards Minho who was sitting at the couch like a loner.

"Are you excited?" he asked but I shook my head.

"Wae?" he then asked.

"Because...I still didn't get the chance to talk to the person..." I told him and he sighed.

"Yah~ You will still get a chance~," he told me and patterned my back. I sighed and leaned my head on his shoulder.

"You should sleep for a while. Your flight is still at 7 PM." he told me and I closed my eyes.

 

Charlene's POV:

L.Joe closed the bed room's door and looked straight into my eyes.

"Do you love someone else?" he suddenly asked. I stood there dumbfounded.

"W...w...what?" I asked him shocked with widened eyes.

"Do you love someone else?" he asked again and got nearer to me. What should I answer him?! I mean...I don't even know if it's love or just a false feeling!

"Charlene, do you love already someone?" he asked for the third time in a sharp tone. I lowered my head.

"I knew it," he said and hit his foot against the wall and groaned. From where does he even know it?! Even in the hospital, he just told me to break up, but never the reason.

"L...L.Joe-"

"NO!!! J...just leave me please!!!" he said angrily and I went out to the living room.

"What happened?" Changjo asked worried and I pulled him to the bathroom.

 

"He WHAT?!" Changjo yelled and I cupped his mouth.

"Come down! I'm still not done!" I whispered.

"Anyways...how did he even find out that I have maybe feelings for another person?" I asked him. Changjo shrugged and took my hand off his mouth.

"Maybe you should tell him the truth. Be-"

"I don't even know who it is!" I told him. He sighted and patterned my back.

"Wae?" Changjo then asked.

"I don't know either..." I told him and he sighed.

"Come on~ You should eat something-"

"I'm not hungry..." I told him.

"Just come out~" I followed him and sat down beside Hyungseok.

"Are you okay?" he asked. I leaned my head on his shoulder and sighed.

"Don't worry~ I'm here for you," he said with an assuring smile.

"How should I know who it is?" I asked him.

"Maybe you should wait up," he said and I nodded.

 

A few hours later...

Narrator's POV:

They all went into the vans. Charlene was with Rochelle, Hyungseok, Taemin, Key, Changjo and Jihae in a van.

Charlene - Taemin - Rochelle
Changjo - Hyungseok
Jihae - Key

"Hyung~ Where's noona?" Hyungseok asked Key.

"She's with Minho and else," he told him and Hyungseok nodded.

"Yo Hyungseok hyung. How did the proposal go?" Changjo the asked.

"It was a success!" Hyungseok cheered and they both high-fived.

"Um...guys? Someone is sleeping..." Rochelle then said. They all turned their heads and found Charlene and Taemin sleeping. Her head rested on his shoulder while he was on hers. Taemin even hugged Charlene with one hand.

"Aw~," Jihae said.

"Hyungseok-ah~ Give me your phone!" Key demanded.

"You have your phone hyung! Besides, it's a Blackberry!" Hyungseok exclaimed.

"Then take a picture with mine!" Key whispered and gave him his phone.

"Why are you guys taking pictures of them?" Rochelle then asked.

"Because that's SHINee's deal! We make pictures of those two. When they get together, we will make a photo album and give it to them as a present IF something big will happen!" Key said and they all nodded.

"Can I join?"

"Me too please!"

"Hyung! I want too!" all of them whined except for Rochelle.

"Calm down guys! Oh, it's green~" Key said and concentrated again on the street.

"You can join if you want to. But you have to follow two rules!" Key said and they all listened.

"First, just take pictures of them when they are side by side. Or if they look like a couple or else. Second, don't EVER show them the pictures or anyone else who doesn't know about the deal! If someone does, you will be disbanded from the project AND...you have to pay the fee we will have when we create the album!" Key explained and they all saluted.

"So, you mean. Doesn't matter on which day it is or else, we should take pictures of them every time and everywhere?" Jihae asked and Key said yes.

"I'm in!"

"Me too!"

"I want t-"

"What are you guys talking?" They all looked back and found Taemin rubbing his eyes.

"Taemin, when will you tell her?" Key suddenly asked. Taemin gazed at Charlene's sleeping face and caressed her cheek.

"Sooner or later..." he answered him and sighted.

"Hyung. Did you know that Charlene lo-"

"DADADADADUDADADIDADODU~~~"

"LALALALALALALA~~~"

"HIS WHISPER IS THE LUCIFER!!!"

"SORRY SORRY SORRY NAEGE NAEGE..." They all stopped Hyungseok to prevent him from saying something. Charlene groaned and buried her head into Taemin's chest.

"GUYS! BE QUIET!" Taemin yelled and they all shut up.

"Mmhh..." she groaned once again and hugged Taemin tight like a baby.

"Aigo~ She must be really tired," Key said.

"I envy you two~~" Changjo whined and Hyungseok hit his head.

"HYUNG!!" Changjo yelled and Hyungseok smirked.

"Mmhh~ What are you doing again?" Their attention got back to Taemin.

"Hey~ You're awake?" Taemin asked and Charlene nodded.

"Get out you two lovebirds! We're here and John is there with Anthony!" Key said and Charlene got out of the car first.

 

"CHARLENE!!!" Anthony squealed and hugged his younger sister tight. She hugged him back. Charlene also came towards her. Suddenly she felt a hug behind her. John immediately stopped and stared at Charlene.

"Hey, John! What's up?" Charlene turned and saw Taemin with a huge grin on his face.

"N...n...nothing..." John shuttered and looked down.

"Hey, Taemin~ Could I'm going to help Rochelle~," she said and got out of his hug.

"How is he?" Rochelle asked as Charlene helped her to get the suitcase out.

"He is...he's acting weird..." she told her.

"Well...seems like he's jealous." Rochelle laughed.

"Don't misunderstand him~ He won't give up that easily," Charlene told her and they got into the airport.

 

Meanwhile...

"Um...since when are you together...?" John asked Taemin after Charlene left.

"Already one and a half year. Why?" Taemin answers him.

"Just asking..."

"Since when do you know Charlene?" Taemin suddenly asked.

"I've met Charlene on her 14th birthday for the first time..."

*So, just a few months longer than me...* Taemin thought and lowered his head.

"Um...how did it began...?" Taemin then asked.

"I...I don't understand..." John answered him.

"How did you became feelings for her?" Taemin asked again.

"I don't know too..." he told Taemin and he nodded.

"But one thing is clear." John then continued.

"I won't give up. I don't care if she has a boyfriend! I don't care if her feelings for me are already dead! All I want is her! Remember Taemin! I won't give up." John repeated himself and got into the airport. Taemin stood there dumbfounded not knowing what to do.

"Taemin~ Are you okay?" Onew asked and Taemin nodded. Then the rest got also into the airport.
