Author's Note: When I first wrote this fan fiction, I originally wanted to add a sequel to it, but after having that long break, I decided not to continue. It would've been about the hardships Taemin and Charlene have to go through in their relationship. Since I do not plan on writing any sort of sequel, I will enlighten you guys with the first three chapters which I have already written back then. Until then, enjoy the cringe!

P.S.: This was originally a Reader x Taemin fan fiction. I changed it from a blank space to Charlene Alonzo about a month after first publishing this story.

You and Taemin are now over three years in a relationship, living a happy fulfilled life with each other. Sounds wonderful, right?
But somehow, something destroys it piece for piece. Something very dangerous. Something which could kill both of you mentally. Something which could even destroy your love...

Chapter 1: Welcome back!
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

Your POV:

It's been years since Taemin and I got together. I just finished college and I'm now on my way back to Korea. What I studied? Psychology. I wanna become a kindergarten nurse, though I know I don't have much time because of my heart issues. I'm in the airport with Rochelle just getting out of the airport. I'm kinda nervous. Why? Because I'm expecting someone else and I think you know whom I mean.

My hand began to tremble. Suddenly I felt a grip on it. I looked to the side.

"Don't worry~ I bet he's also nervous," Rochelle told me and smiled. I smiled back and started looking around when we got out of the airport. Suddenly I saw him...

"_____!!!" he yelled and ran towards me. The others ran also to the same direction behind him.

"HEY!" I cheered and let my things fall to hug him.

"I missed you~," I said and buried my head into his neck.

"I missed you too~," he told me and kissed my forehead before helping me with my luggage. I looked at Rochelle. She grinned at me.

"What?" I asked her and raised an eyebrow.

"Nothing~ You two just look adorable." she chuckled and put her arm on my shoulder.

"We should go now before we get into traffic," Minho said and we all made our way to their cars.

 

"And? How was it without me?" Rochelle asked Minho and he laughed.

"I kinda felt lonely without you~" he pouted and she chuckled.

"Where's Elizabeth?" I asked curiously.

"She's helping Mrs Jung at home," Onew answered me.

"You know what? Since we're all here, we should celebrate it!" Key suggested.

"You have to wait until we're at Yoogeun's apartment." Jonghyun laughed.

"We're sleeping again at Yoogeun's?" I asked and raised an eyebrow.

"Sure. Wae yo? Wanna sleep in our ex dorm, like last time?"

"Yeah~ While Taemin hugging you because you hugged his arm!" Onew laughed and I slapped his arm.

"Yo guys! Could you stop hitting each other?" Minho demanded from the driver's seat.

"By the way! How's John?" Key then asked.

"She's doing fine~," I told him.

"I heard he has a girlfriend," Jonghyun asked and I nodded.

"We're here!!!" Onew cheered and we got out of the car.

 

In the apartment...

Narrator's POV:

Taemin knocked on the door. It opened. Suddenly you all saw a bunch of girls and boys running frantically from there to there. You smiled to yourself. One of them then stopped, looked at you and the girl's jaw dropped.

"_____!!!" Jihae screamed and hugged you tight. The other ran also and they attacked you with hugs.

"Nice to see you again guys!" you laughed.

"_____~," Elizabeth said and hugged you too.

"What's up?" you asked her.

"I'm doing fine," she said and you nodded slowly.

 

Meanwhile, the others were talking to each other while Key stood there at the door and sighed. Minkyung kinda felt sorry for him and went towards him.

"Kibum...are you okay?" she asked him. He looked up and smiled at her.

"I'm okay," he said.

"Do you have any plans tomorrow?" he suddenly asked her. Minkyung shrugged.

"Wanna go out with me?" he asked.

"I don't know if I even have any plans tomorrow..." she said.

"Hyung. Will you come with us tomorrow?" Minho whispered to Key. He shrugged.

"AAAHHH!!!" they all turned their heads. Suddenly they began to laugh.

 

"Taemin! C'mon, let it!! You know I-AAAHHH!!!" you screamed as Taemin tickled you.

"HELP!!!" you screamed again but they all just continued to laugh. Taemin then stopped and laughed too. You glared at him.

"You know I hate this!" you whined and turned your back to him. He took you by your waist from behind and pulled you nearer to him.

"You've changed a lot~" Taemin whispered into your ear and smiled at himself.

"Oh yeah! I also have fans now!" you cheered and took your phone out.

"Wow, since when?" Taemin asked surprised.

"Since my 19th birthday," you said and read the new posts on your accounts.

Im Mina @ minima • 3d
@(username) annyeong unnie! how are you? hope taemin doesn't make any trouble ^^

faithfullpeace403 hello dongsaengie! if you have any problems, i'm here for you! btw my name is izzy ;)

iwantfun asked: hi there! question, how can i make a boy fall in love with me if he doesn't even know me?

Kisa Yamato posted on your wall
Are you really SHINee Lee Taemin's girlfriend? If yes then...wow...I thought more about it that Sulli would become his gf... :/

"Why should Sulli be my girlfriend?" Taemin asked and raised an eyebrow.

"I don't know either..." you answered him and put your phone back.

"Anyways~ Wanna go with Romin and Minkey somewhere tomorrow?" you asked and turned your body.

"Um...maybe, why not?" Taemin shrugged and kissed your nose.

"I should get used to the kissing thing again." you chuckled and kissed your boyfriend's lips.

"You should," Taemin said and kissed you back.

"By the way. Do your parents know about it?" he asked. You nodded.

"Yeah~ But they wanna see you officially and since another party is coming near, I should introduce you to them," you said.

"Another party?"

"Rochelle's and Jihyun's." Taemin nodded slowly.

 

"By the way, ~ Taemin, why _____? I mean, she's stubborn sometimes, can be annoying and is always nagging." Elizabeth laughed as she sat down on her boyfriend's lap.

"Hey! I'm not nagging!" you said and glared at your cousin.

"Agree!" Key said and Jonghyun slapped his head.

"Hyung~~"

"Don't be so mean to her!" Jonghyun demanded and you all laughed.

"I don't know~ Ask herself," Taemin said and shrugged.

"How should I know it?" you asked and raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh! I know why!" Hyungseok squealed and raised his hand.

"There are usually many reasons why a boy would fall for her," he said.

"Then tell us some," Elizabeth said.

"First of all, LOOK AT HER! Isn't she pretty?!"

"Ehem..." Elizabeth said.

"What? It's just my opinion." Hyungseok exclaimed.

"He's right~" Taemin whispered into your ear.

"You don't only look pretty, but y as well," he said and smirked. You gave him a disgusted face.

"Why? Not on our side? Should I say you're ugly?" Taemin joked and you hit his chest lightly.

"I wouldn't even call you ugly, you know?" he whispered.

"Why not?"

"Because for me, you're perfect~," he said and you blushed.

"Since when are you blushing?"

"Since I'm with YOU! By the way, since when are you flirting with me?"

"Since I started to love you~"

"And since when did you start to love me?"

"Since you cried in front of me for the first time~"

"I'm kinda getting upset because of you..."

"Wae yo? Is something bugging you?"

"No, nothing~"

"Don't lie to me _____."

"I...you know I have to say goodbye soon..."

"Don't say something like this~ It hurts me to hear you saying this~~"

"But you know it..."

"Wanna go out with me?"

"Where do you wanna go?"

"Just somewhere else," he said and kissed your lips.

"I missed it to kiss you~," Taemin told you in a soft tone and smiled.

Chapter 2: Visiting Teen Top
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

Narrator's POV:

You and Taemin went for a walk through the streets.

"Why are you always saying such things?" Taemin then asked you.

"Because I'm afraid you would forget it..."

"Why should I?"

"I don't know either..." Taemin sighted.

"Where shall we go?" he then asked.

"I don't know either."

"What about visiting TEEN TOP? I'm sure, they missed you." Taemin chuckled.

"You know what? I miss them too!" you said and you both headed to Niel's home.

 

At Niel's home...

Taemin's POV:

_____ rang the doorbell and Ricky opened it. His eyes widened and he hugged her tight.

"GUYS!!! _____ IS HERE!!!" he screamed and pulled both of us in. They all attacked her with hugs and tickled her.

"OKAY, OKAY, OKAY, OKAY GUYS!!!" she laughed. I chuckled and went towards them. CAP hyung helped me to remove the boys.

"Omona! Do you have a present for me?" Niel asked excitingly, but _____ shook her head.

"Sorry~," she told him and he pouted.

"Yah hyung! Your girlfriend is boring!" he suddenly said and I laughed.

"Hey! I forgot it at Yoogeun's!" _____ whined and slapped Niel's arm.

"Omo~ You're here!" another female voice said. I turned my head and saw Mrs Ahn smiling at us.

"Annyeonghaseyo!" I greeted her and bowed.

"Aigo, don't be so formal. You two part of our family! By the way, do you two wanna eat?" she then asked us. We nodded and followed Mrs Ahn into the kitchen.

"Umma! Wait for me!" Niel screamed and they all ran behind us.

 

I sat down between Changjo and L.Joe because Niel dragged _____ between him and Ricky.

"_____! Taste that one!" Niel said and shoved a full spoon of strawberry ice cream into my girlfriend's mouth.

"Niel! Don't feed me that much!" _____ told him. Ricky pulled her arm.

"Yeah hyung! Don't be so rude! She still needs to taste that one!" he said and also stuffed ice cream.

"Hyung, I think it's better to pull _____ away from them..." L.Joe whispered.

"Just let them. They missed her a lot. I don't think it will end well if we just snatch her away from them." CAP hyung whispered. I smiled to myself and watched how the two continued to feed her. I met eyes with _____. She gave me that pleading look. I chuckled and just continued to eat.

 

After we've finished eating, we got back to Yoogeun with TEEN TOP.

"Have fun!" Mrs Ahn said and we all jumped into the bus.

"_____! Wanna play 'I see something which you can't see'?" Ricky asked. _____ shook her head and took a seat beside me.

"Hey~ What's up?" I asked her with a smile stuck on my face and put my arm on her shoulder.

"Nothing much. Why didn't you help me earlier?" she asked.

"I can't just pull you away from people who were missing you," I told her and she leaned her head on my shoulder.

"Hyung~ Can I talk to you later on?" Changjo whispered from behind. I nodded. I then looked at the girl to my left. Wow...she's sleeping. I chuckled and kissed her forehead.

 

Chunji's POV:

Taemin hyung kissed _____'s forehead. I chuckled and nudged L.Joe.

"Yah~ Do you still like _____?" I asked him. He gave me that huh look. I pointed with my lips at the half sleepy couple. He sighed and turned his head to the window. I take it as a yes. I sighted too and looked again at the couple. Really sweet, that's all I can say!

 

Narrator's POV:

When you all arrived at Yoogeun's, Taemin carried you bridal style to the bedroom where you slept the last time you visited Korea. He then got out again.

"How long is she sleeping now?" Rochelle asked him.

"About 30 minutes," he told her and she nodded.

"ROCHELLE!" Niel suddenly screamed.

"NIIIEEL!" Rochelle screamed too and they both hugged each other.

"Omo! Why are you still so short?!" he pouted and Rochelle hit his arm.

"Hey! I'm still growing man!" she exclaimed. Minho hugged her from behind.

"And she's mine~" he whispered in a y yet dangerous tone. Rochelle blushed madly.

"Aww~ You two are the perfect match!" he grinned and pinched Rochelle's cheek.

"Niel~~~" she whined and he ran away. Rochelle didn't bother to run since she was still in Minho's arms.

"Tomorrow family?" Minho suddenly asked. Rochelle nodded.

Chapter 3: Jonghyun's Promise
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

The next day...

Your POV:

I woke up early. I looked at the watch. 7 AM...maybe I should buy something. I tried to stand up but got stopped by a groan. I turned my head and saw Taemin sleeping like a baby. I smiled to myself and kissed his cheek. I then got out of his hug and got ready for going out.

I bought eggs and bacon. When I came back, I cooked English breakfast. It's been so long I've made it the last time. I set the table and got out to watch TV. Suddenly there was this drama movie again which I've seen when I was in Korea the last time. I cried again like there's no tomorrow but got stopped by a sudden hug. I looked up and saw Jihae smiling at me. She took a seat beside me and we both cried. Suddenly we heard a groan.

"Yah! Who's watching TV that early?" I recognised that it was Key. Suddenly he already was sitting beside us in a second.

"Don't tell me that's 'Know Me'?!" he squealed and we all three hugged tight.

 

The drama is about a girl who gets involved in a car accident due to her time she has a break with her boyfriend. She loses part of her memories. And one of them is her boyfriend. He tries to make her remember him, but in the final, she's getting married to the son of her father's business partner although she finally realises her feelings for the boy.

The best thing is, the boy whom she forgets is Chunji.

 

My heart was thumbing during the whole movie. It's one of the best I've ever seen before! Suddenly we heard another groan. I didn't bother to look 'cause I was too much into this movie now. I then felt the others letting go off me and another hug came. It was familiar to me. I hugged the person back and buried my head into his neck.

"Shhh~ Why are you always crying when I'm not around?" he asked me and I looked up. He kissed my forehead and I hugged him even tighter.

"Hey, Taemin! Wanna eat?" Minho then asked. Taemin looked down at me and I nodded. We both stood up and headed into the kitchen. We all ate with delight.

 

"Any plans for today?" Jonghyun then asked. Nearly all of us shook our heads.

"And I thought that at least Taemin and _____ have something to do," he said and frowned.

"Rochelle and I are going to meet my parents." Minho suddenly said. We all nearly chocked on our food.

"What? Am I not allowed?" he asked.

"Are you serious? It seems like you wanna marry her already!" Key laughed sarcastically but I think Minho was serious.

"Yah Key! Stop laughing, he looks serious!" Onew whispered and Key stopped.

"What about you Elizabeth?" Onew then asked.

"I will go out with Mark," she answered him.

"Seems like all of you have plans." Jonghyun sighted.

"How was the wedding?" Rochelle then asked him.

"It was kinda boring... Hey guys! We should do a promise!" he suddenly jumped.

"What promise?" we all asked him curiously.

"When one of us is getting married, we should invite all the people who are sitting here including our families." he cheered and we all gave him a confused look.

"AND...we SHOULD play Just Dance!!" he cheered even more.

"I'm in!"

"Me too!"

"Same here!" All the girls plus me high-fived with Jonghyun.

"I don't know hyung..." Taemin said and scratched the back of his neck.

"Wae yo? Are you telling me to refuse?" Jonghyun pouted and we girls laughed.

"C'mon maknae! We don't have any more much time!" he then said and pushed Taemin on his shoulder. We all nodded in agreement.

"Okay, okay...I'm in..." Taemin gave up and we all cheered.
