Those Three Words

Took My Breath Away

"Is it okay if we leave now, Nara-ah?" Leeteuk tapped on Nara's shoulder lightly.

Nara turned her head at him and nodded while her hands were still busy stirring the porridge. "No problem, oppa. Besides, I got sous chef Wook here to help me."

"Oh, so now I'm the sous chef?" Ryeowook rolled his eyes at Nara and laughed.

Nara grinned at him and nodded excitedly. "You're following my recipe, oppa. So that makes you my sous chef." Ryeowook just shook his head and smiled at her childish act.

"Okay then, we'll be leaving now. Thanks for taking care of our magnae, Nara-ah." Leeteuk flashed his dimple smile and walked to the door where Eunhyuk and Shindong had been waiting for him.

Nara accidentally caught Eunhyuk's eyes and she was contemplating whether she should smile at him or not. She didn't quite know where they stood at that moment. Ryeowook had told her about the incident that happened between Kyuhyun and Eunhyuk. She was so surprised hearing it, she never thought Eunhyuk would fight for her that way.

Before Nara could decide what to do, Eunhyuk smiled warmly at her and waved briefly. Nara instantly brighten up at his gesture and smiled happily back at him. She turned her attention back at the porridge while humming the song from her all time favorite movie, A Walk to Remember. She suddenly felt a bit happier. She stirred the porridge a little longer before she scooped it down to a bowl and brought it to Kyuhyun's room. She opened the door to Kyuhyun's room slightly and peeked inside to see what was her boyfriend doing. She found him lying on the bed with his arm over his eyes. Nara approached his bed slowly and put down the bowl on a table beside his bed.

Nara rested her palm on his neck to feel his temperature. His temperature was still higher than normal, he still had a slight fever. She bent down a little and whispered to him, afraid that she would wake him up. "Oppa. Oppa, are you sleeping?" She poked his shoulder lightly.

Then suddenly without warning, Kyuhyun grabbed one of her arm and pulled her down to his bed. Nara gasped in surprise and the next thing she knew, she was already snuggled against his chest with his arm wrapped tightly around her slim waist.

Kyuhyun pressed their body closer and inhaled the scent of her hair. "I'm up, Nara," he answered her previous question weakly.

"Yeah, I can tell." She rolled her eyes at him. Kyuhyun chuckled at her response. 

"Feel better,oppa?" Nara asked as she pulled a little from his embrace and lied her head next to him. She needed to do that, cause being in such close proximity with him made her felt light-headed. And inhaling his manly scent didn't do her any favor.

Kyuhyun looked at her eyes lovingly with a small smile on his face. He had been really busy that week with the promotion of A-cha almost ended and the rehearsal for Super Show 4 at its busiest. He actually felt grateful for being sick, cause then he got to see Nara. "Now that you're here, I feel a lot better." He kissed the top of her head and lingered there for a while. He loved the smell of her hair, it was sweet and fresh. Just like her.

Nara blushed at his answer. She kissed the side of his neck before she wriggled out of his embrace. Kyuhyun tried to hold her down, but he was too weak to do that.  He groaned, feeling upset at himself, and pouted at her like a little kid. She pecked his cheek once to ease his anger and grabbed the bowl of porridge from the bedside table.

"You cooked that for me?" Kyuhyun beamed at the sight of a hot steamed porridge in front of him. It smelled so good that he could feel himself almost drooling.

Nara scooped a spoon of the porridge and blew it gently before she fed it to him. "Yup, and I already taught Ryeowook oppa how to do it. So you can ask him to make it for you when I'm not around."

Kyuhyun swallowed the porridge and pouted again for the second time. "But I don't want Ryeowook's porridge. Don't you wanna take care of me?"

 "Aish, such a baby! It's not like I'm not going to be around when you're sick. I'll always take care of you," Nara laughed a little and leaned down to kiss the tip of his nose.

Kyuhyun always loved the way Nara showed her affection towards him. The little things she did... Fixing his scarf before he headed out, his hair gently when he was all worn out from the hectic schedules, or kissing the tip of his nose just like what she just did. They drove him crazy. He fell deeper and deeper... And he just couldn't take it anymore. His heart almost burst in joy everytime she was around.

"Nara," he sat down on his bed and called her out of the blue.

"Hm?" Nara answered distractedly as she was folding Kyuhyun's clothes neatly.

"I..." Kyuhyun suddenly stopped before he could finish his sentence. A thought just came up inside his head, what if she doesn't feel the same?

"What is it, oppa?" Nara approached him and sat beside him on his bed. A frown was formed on her beautiful face.

Kyuhyun was afraid. He didn't wanna ruin the thing they got by saying something that probably would drive her away. He shook his head and tried to smile brightly at her, "Nothing. I just miss you so much."

"Really?" Nara asked doubtfully and cupped his face in her hands to make him look at her.

"Really." Kyuhyun lifted Nara slightly and put her down on his lap. He pecked her lips a few times before he finally deepened the kiss and her cheek softly. He was trying to make her understand. He was hoping she would understand.

Nara felt something different with the way he was kissing her that night. It was slow, but not too gentle. It was like he was trying to tell her something. She broke the kiss to get some air, "Shoot, now I'm going to get sick," she laughed and realized Kyuhyun was looking at her intently with his brilliant brown eyes.

"I'll take care of you in return," Kyuhyun smiled and put his hand behind her neck to pull her closer and kissed her in another breath taking kiss.


A few days later, Nara received an emergency text from Kyuhyun asking her to come by to Super Junior's dorm immediately. Nara was confused when she first received the mesaage. They just met earlier at Music Bank for Acha's goodbye stage. What was so important that could happened in a span of an hour? But she was worried nevertheless, so she dashed out of the restaurant after she quickly apologized to Joongso and Minyoung unnie for leaving them in the middle of the dinner. She hailed a cab and told the driver to drive as fast as he could to her destination.

Nara arrived at Super Junior's dorm half an hour later and waited anxiously for someone to open the door for her. Finally the door to their dorm on the eleventh floor opened slowly and revealed a rather sleepy Sungmin.

"Hi Nara-ah, come in," he said as he rubbed his eyes and yawned soon after.

Nara bowed slightly to him. "Ah oppa, I'm so sorry for waking you up. It's just that I got this weird text from Kyuhyun..." she trailed and tried to peek behind Sungmin's shoulder. She took off her shoes impatiently and hung her coat near the door.

Sungmin was acting kinda weird. It seemed like he was trying to block Nara's view with his body.  "It's okay. I fell asleep in the living room with the tv still on. It was a good thing you woke me up or Teukie hyung would be mad at me," he smiled cutely and peeked over his shoulder a few times as if he was checking on something.

Nara frowned at him and decided to asked, "Why are you being so weird, oppa? Is there something wrong?"

Sungmin smiled cheekily at her before he turned his head over his shoulder one last time. "Nope, everything's fine. Kyuhyun's at the balcony, by the way. I'm gonna go to sleep. Night." he grinned from ear-to-ear and quickly went inside his bedroom.

Nara looked suspiciously at him before she made her way to the balcony. The dorm was also too quiet much to her curiousity. Usually the boys would still be up at that hour and just gather at the living room. She slowly opened the door to the balcony and found no one.

She frowned at herself and stepped further to the balcony. Suddenly she heard a familiar song playing from a music player on her right. It was Someday We'll Know from A Walk to Remember ost. She turned her body in surprise and found Kyuhyun with a smirk on his face. A very handsome Kyuhyun standing there with the beautiful night view of Seoul behind him was a picture perfect. Nara needed to remind herself to breathe.

Kyuhyun slowly walked towards her and reached out for her hand. He took her hand in his and spun her once before he pulled her closer to his body. He intertwined his fingers with her and put his other hand on her waist, swaying to the music. He smiled when he noticed the surprised expression on Nara's face. She didn't expect for Kyuhyun to do something like that. He wasn't much of a romantic guy in the first place.

Kyuhyun pecked her lips and lingered there for a while before he traced his lips up to her forehead and planted a kiss there lovingly. Nara blushed at his gesture and burried her face on his chest. She never would have thought that Kyuhyun would remember her favorite song that she mentioned once when he had a dinner at her place. 

A smile started to creep on her face. She pulled her head away from his chest and looked into his mesmerizing eyes. "So, what's the emergency, oppa?" she smirked at him while still dancing to the music. 

Kyuhyun spun her once again before he answered. He then put both of his hands on her waist, circling it, and she tangled her hands behind his neck. They danced slowly, enjoying each other's company. "This. Having a romantic dance under the moonlight with you is the emergency." He shrugged his shoulder and smiled cutely at her.

Nara laughed a little at his cheesy answer. She sighed contentedly,  "You're amazing, oppa."

Kyuhyun watched as his girlfriend's face lit up with happiness. Her smile was so breath taking and the way the wind blew her hair just made her even more beautiful. He had done some thinking for the past week. A relationship was all about taking chances. He would like to take the chance with her and prepared for the worst.

"No, you're amazing. And you're so perfect. I thank God everyday for letting me have you." Kyuhyun said with his deep warm voice. He tucked her hair behind her ear, there was a small smile on his face. She was taken by surprise at his words. She felt really touched hearing it.

Nara smiled and Kyuhyun's cheek slowly. He closed his eyes and put his hand on top of hers. He kissed her palm before he looked back into her eyes. "I love you," he whispered the words softly, but loud enough for her to hear it.

Nara felt her body instantly warmed up and her heart was beating faster than ever. Her mind went blank before the realization finally dawned on her. She wasn't the only who felt that way. He loved her just as much as she loved him.

Then Nara whispered back the words that Kyuhyun was dying to hear, "I love you too."

With that, Kyuhyun pressed his lips on hers and kissed her with so much passion. Nara tangled her fingers on his hair and pulled him closer, wanting to leave no space between the two of them. As they kissed, they realize that they belonged to each other. Finally, everything felt so right.
