C72: Surprise Surprise
I Remember YouJin Kyung's POV:
Sighing as I sat on the couch watching Christmas Eve specials on TV while I drank hot chocolate with marshmallows.
Omma was overseas in America with my Appa and she'll be there for the first few days of my university life there.
My application to the university there was already accepted so all that's left to do is back my bags and to get ready to fly in January.
So...until then, I'm all alone this Christmas Eve while Jin Young still have 1 - 2 hours more of training at the label company.
Then again...Jin Young said something about spending some time with the guys after training so I'm not too sure what time he intends to come over.
When Omma left on the 23rd of December, Jin Young said that he'll come by often. Which he did!
But all it has done is making me anticipate when he was coming to see me...
Wait. I sound like we're already married or something! Snap out of it Jin Kyung. The loneliness is playing mind games with me.
Hearing my phone buzz. I look at the screen and see that I have a new message from Jin Young.
"Jagiya, meet me at the address below at 7pm :) I've already helped you pick out a dress and shoes for this so you definitely can't be late!"
"What! You've gone through my closet AGAIN?!" I yell at my phone as if he could hear me. "I am SO going to give you a piece of my mind when I see you later"
*Ding Dong~* My doorbell rang.
Why am I so busy all of a sudden? I put my hot chocolate down and peered through the eye hole.
Opening the door the moment I saw who it was.
"So Yeong!!!!" I screamed as I gave her a huge hug. Ever since her graduation, I've only managed to meet up with her a few times in the past year. "You're here! How is this possible?!"
"Happy Christmas Eve Jin Kyung!" She gave me a bear hug back.
Pulling her out of the cold, I close the door behind us and was smiling away at the fact that she's here in front of me.
"I won't be staying long since I have a date with my boyfriend later and I know you have a date with Jin Young later." So Yeong gave me a wink as she took of her coat.
"How do you know that?" I blinked at her in surprise considering that I just found out about the date myself.
Rolling her eyes "It's Christmas Eve Jin Kyung. Also with you leaving in a few weeks time, how could he not prepare something!"
Ushering me up to the second floor, So Yeong walks into my room and directly heads to my wardrobe. Taking the dress that was hanging on the hook inside it.
A posh paper bag was shoved into my hand along with the dress.
"What's this?" I hold up the bag and see the brand that is on it. Nearly dropping it in the process.
"W-why are y-you g-giving me something from Vic-victoria Secret!" I wanted to hand the back to her but So Yeong was pushing it towards me.
"I heard from the grapevine that you didn't have any nice lingerie for off shoulder dresses. So...as your responsible Unnie~ I'm here to help!" She was gushing for an unknown reason.
"What! Grapevine? I am going to strangle Jin Young when I see him later for spilling the beans on my wardrobe!" I was having a mental breakdown.
Steering me in the direction of my bathroom, "don't be too harsh on Jin Young~ he knows that you're too lazy to go shopping on your own so he got me to help"
So Yeong said so quickly and fast, no giving me any chance to refuse or oppose. Shoving me in to my bathroom and holding onto the handle so that there's no way that I can get out.
Exhaling as I pinched the bridge of my nose. There's no way to bluff my way out of wearing what she got, the champagne pink off shoulder dress with a heart shape neckline would show with any of bras that I have.
Reluctantly putting on the lingerie set, I put on the dress over it and told So Yeong that I was ready.
"You look amazing!!!" She exclaimed as she spun me around making me dizzy.
Looking at the winter coat that was also set aside on the wardrobe by Jin Young. "For today I'll help you do your make up and accessories" she smiled as she began to ransack my vanity counter.
-
Leaving the house fully prepped, I got to the address that Jin Young texted but I didn't see him anywhere in the area.
About to take out my phone to call him. It wasn't like him to be late, considering he had the nerve to look through my wardrobe to ensure that I wasn't late...I thought that he'd be on time too.
"Noona~" I heard a familiar voice calling my name.
It wasn't Jin Young but before I could even turn around to find out who it was in the crowded street. I was tackled into a bear hug.
"Nice to see you too GongChan" I laughed.
"You look amazing Jin Kyung" Shin Woo said after greeting me.
"She smells great too!" GongChan chirps. "What perfume are you–"
He gets cut off in mid question as Baro pulls him off of me. "You're forgetting what we're here for GongChan"
"Right, put this on Noona!" He hands me a simple black eye mask.
"We'll be guiding you to Jin Young" I hear Sandeul say right after I put it on.
"Is it very far from here?" I can't help but ask nervously. Not being able to see what's happening was really unsettling.
"Nope, it's just for 5 - 10 minutes" Shin Woo says and I think he places my hand on the crook of his elbow.
"I want to be next to Noona!" I hear GongChan call dibs which makes me laugh.
Walking in darkness for a while, I nearly tripped a few times but thankfully the guys were quick to react.
It got a lot quieter all of a sudden and it wasn't as cold as it was before.
There were sounds of soft clinking and people chatting but it was different from just now.
Most importantly I could smell food and it made me hungry.
"There's a reservation under Jung Jin Young" I hear Shin Woo say.
The sound of page flipping and the tapping of a pen. "Yes, for a table of?" The door man asks as a test.
"For two, we're just guiding the lady here for her date" Baro speaks up from behind me.
"Right then, this way." The man says and I hear footsteps fading away.
"I'll walk slowly so don't trip alright?" Shin Woo says and takes my hand.
It's warm like Jin Young's but the feeling from it was like an older brother.
Taking my coat and saying that he placed it on the back of the chair, Shin Woo holds me by my arms and eases me onto the chair.
"You can remove to eye mask now" He says and it takes a few extra seconds for my eyes to adjust to the light.
Taking the eye mask from me "Jin Young will be here soon." He pats me on the shoulder and leaves.
I sip from the glass of plain water and wait.
A few moments pass and I'm beginning to wonder if he's going to turn up.
Looking at my phone, I contemplate if I should call him. "Where are you Jin Young..." I say quietly to myself. Feeling nervous that I was at this rather expensive restaurant on my own.
"I'm right here" He places a hand on my shoulder and making me jump in my seat.
I look up at him and my initial idea of strangling him disappeared.
His hair was ink black and he was wearing a navy blue jacket that framed his broad shoulders to a T, with a black V-cut shirt that showed off his collarbone and the necklace that I got for him.
"Breathe Jin Kyung" He smirks, interrupting my thoughts as he bent down to kiss my cheeks and taking a seat opposite me.
"Your hair...it's black again" was all I could manage to say, I also had a feeling my own blush probably redder than my makeup or how my plain water was in fact clear champagne or something. Considering now my face was heating up from the handsome male perfection in front of me.
Leaning forwards, Jin Young motioned me to lean towards him.
"You look amazing Jin Kyung" Using a low and husky tone, my poor heart raced within my chest again.
"You look amazing too Jin Young" I manage to squeeze my words out from my brain.
Getting up suddenly, I watched him take off his jacket and walk over to me. Placing it over my shoulders and whispering into my ears. "Have they been staring at you the entire time while you were waiting for me?"
"They? Who?" I look up at him in confusion. "I kept checking my phone every second as I waited. Wondering if I should call you, writing and deleting messages."
"The guys at this restaurant keep stealing glances at you even though they're with other people here." His breath sending shivers down my spine.
Heat from his hands seep through the jacket as he smooths out the fabric over my shoulders and returns to his seat.
"It's really hard for me to say this... but ever since you appeared next to me. All I've been doing is looking at you." I glance at him briefly before looking down at the menu.
"You're looking really handsome tonight." I can feel the tips of my ears heat up as well.
"Honestly speaking" Jin Young rests his elbows on the table and interlaces his fingers. Leaning forward and resting his chin where his fingers interlink.
"I think you're really y tonight" he gives me another one of those smiles.
Managing to stutter out "thank you", Jin Young smiled smugly and called for the waiter. "Are you ready to order?" He asks me with amusement sparkling in his eyes.
Nodding in response, Jin Young orders the beef steak while I get the smoked salmon.
*It's nice eating out like this* I think and smile. *Definitely one Christmas that I wouldn't forget...*
Enjoying our food when it came. "How is it" he asks after I take a bite.
"It's really good" I cut another portion of the fish and hold it out to him.
Surprise flashed briefly on his face before taking the bite from my fork.
Unsure if my mind was playing tricks on me...The moment where he was pulling away from the fork felt like it was in slow motion.
Especially the sensual gaze that he was giving me. I lost count of how many times I blinked within that minute trying to see if what just happened was real.
Snapping out of my trance, I quickly retracted my hand and abused the dead smoked fish on my plate.
"The fish is nice" He comments and cuts a piece of steak for me to try as well.
I try to reach for this fork but Jin Young tsked me and insisted on feeding me.
Some things are hard to change and it seemed that over the past year, my hesitance in being fed never went away.
"It's really good" I say in bliss as the meat was so tender it melts in my mouth.
"It's good right?" He smiled and offers me another piece which I still awkwardly take from him.
To a point where I felt that we were eating in comfortable silence, I nearly fell out of my chair when I feel Jin Young's leg trailing up and down my leg.
In my surprise, the fork slipped out of my hand and fell onto the plate with a clatter. Eventually landing on the floor with a loud clang which led to heads turning to us and Jin Young laughing at my extreme reaction.
"Aigoo, you and your butterfingers Jagiya" he covers for me seeing that he's the cause of my reaction as he calls for the waiter to get me a new fork.
-
"Is Jagiya mad about the stunt that I pulled at the restaurant earlier?" Jin Young asks me cutely as we walk down the cold streets.
"I was so surprised you big pabo!" My embarrassment exploded through the roof as I recalled EVERYONE'S attention on me. "Did you see the way they were looking at me?! How am I ever going to go to that restaurant in the future?"
Stopping me by a tall bright Christmas tree at the heart of the shopping district.
"Don't worry about that Jagiya, there's lots of other restaurant that we can visit in the future" he smiles and holds my hand.
Looking into my eyes, he takes a deep breath and says "I want to give you your Christmas Jin Kyung" My ears perk when I hear my name instead of the pet name.
"Could you close your eyes for a moment while I get your surprise ready?" He asks and I comply.
For some odd reason Jin Young sounds really tense but I guess that's normal since he said that it was a surprise.
All of a sudden, I felt that it became really dark. As if someone cut off the lights, making me wonder if it was our dumb luck to be experiencing a electrical blackout on Christmas Eve where everyone was out.
I felt Jin Young's hands on my shoulder to turn me to a side and suddenly, I could sense the lights going back on from under my eyelids and the abruptness of it made me flinch and open my eyes even though I was told to keep them close.
"Soo Jin Kyung, will you marry me?" I see the lights forming words on the giant Christmas tree.
Shocked out of my wits, "Jin Young...is this...for real?" I turn around to ask him but I could only cover my mouth to hide my open jaw when my eyes saw him kneeling down on one knee.
"I know that we're really young and that I can't give you the best that I want for you right now...but despite all these and my bad character at times. Soo Jin Kyung will you marry me?" He holds a bouquet of roses and opens a ring box.
Revealing a silver band with a simple round cut diamond in the centre.
"H-how did you manage to get this?" I begin to cry because he must have had only last month to prepare for this. And for him to arrange all this even though he's so busy with training. I couldn't contain my emotions as tears spilled over.
"I scraped together my portion of the competition prize money and my personal savings Jagiya...I'm only sorry that I can't give you more..." He looks into my eyes with such sincerity which was more that I could ever ask for. "I thought of doing this after you came back but it seems like it’ll be too late if it’s not now" he trails off not knowing what to say anymore.
"Yes, Jin Young" I fall to my knees and join him on the floor not caring how cold the ground was on my bare knees as I throw my arms around him. "Yes...yes a million times over Jin Young. I'll marry you"
Cheers erupted at the sight of us. Some yelling 'congratulations' and others yelling 'kiss the girl'
Jin Young pulls me away to slide the ring on, kissing both my left 4th finger with the silver band before pulling me close to kiss my lips with the growing crowd watching us.
Wolf calls and cheers filled the air throughout the kiss and even after we ended the kiss with me feeling sufficiently embarrassed in public.
Helping me up to my feet, Jin Young gives me the bouquet to hold and lightly brushed the dirt off my knees.
We hailed a cab back home because my makeup was ruined because of the waterfall that fell from my eyes and the strangeness of how people were wishing us congratulations as we walked down the streets.
Reaching my place, we walked up to the door where I stopped him from going into the house.
"Can we go to your place instead?" Asked him quickly because of the confused expression that he had on.
"You see, you're always at my place for the past few days and I want to be at yours since I only have 2 - 3 weeks left in Korea...I want to remember as much I can about you during this time" I explain myself before he managed to ask why.
Probably seeing the desperation in my eyes. Jin Young agrees and I asked him if I could run upstairs to get something really quick.
Grabbing the paper bag that contained his gift. I went down and switched to wearing comfortable shoes as we went over to his place.
"Jung Omma~ we're home!" I called out when we opened the door.
Laughing at me while he closes the door behind us "She's not here Jin Kyung, she's probably with your Omma and our Appas enjoying Christmas Eve together as well" he explains to me while switching on some lights in the house.
"What? Seriously! My Omma never tells me anything these days..." I complained as I removed my shoes and walked up to Jin Young's room.
Going to his bathroom first, I remove most of the makeup and smiled when I saw the reflection of the ring on my finger.
Heading out I saw Jin Young holding my paper bag and peering into it.
"Is this what I think it is?" He asks me as we take a seat on his bed. "Yes, it's a scrapbook with all the photos I have of us ever since we got together." I hug the big book dearly.
"It's filled three quarter of the way so it's up to you to fill the rest of the pages and the spare book until I graduate from university." I flip open the pages up till where it's blank.
Handing it over to him "I have my own copy at home so when I return, we'll exchange the book and I want to see what I've missed out while I'm not here."
"I know that we'll be trying to talk through the Internet a lot but when it gets really busy or tough I'd want something to look through..." I keep on talking not know whether he likes it because he's not saying anything.
"I hope that you won't mind that my gift isn't expensive. I spent a lot of money on the customized necklace that I got for your birthday I didn't manage to save much for this holiday..."
My worries instantly shot down when he pulled me into his arms and kissed me.
Gasping when I felt his hand slide up my thigh, playing and drawing circles on the skin that was under the hemline of the skirt.
Jin Young slid his tongue in and memorized every nook and cranny, experimenting which part drew the most response out of me.
His name leave my lips breathlessly as we stopped for air.
"Don't say my name like that Jin Kyung..." He rests his forehead against mine and his voice sound strained. "The way you're looking at me isn't helping either"
"Why?" I asked him, even though I had a rough idea of what he meant.
"You're looking so y tonight and hearing the way my name leave your lips like that is making me want you so damned bad." Jin Young explains with slightly labored breathing.
I shift nervously on his bed and answers "What if...I want you the same way you want me?"
"Are you sure?" He asks me seriously. "It's not because you're leaving is it?"
"More sure than anything" I pulled on his jacket and kissed him. "And it's not because I'm leaving, didn't you notice that I've been testing your limits recently?" Directly showing him how much I wanted it.
Shrugging off his jacket as we kissed, the temperature between us kept rising. Each article of our clothes coming off one by one until we were left in our underwear.
Easing me gently onto the bed, I stared at Jin Young's toned body. My fingers lightly trailing up the veins in his arms as he hovered over me. Reaching the broad planes of his shoulder, slowly going down his chest to his abdominal muscles.
Blushing as I felt his abs, Jin Young stopped me before I could go any further and pins my hands to the bed.
His intense gaze and scrutiny makes my heart pound wildly in my chest as he leans closer, touching me in places that only he is allowed to. Whispering things that would always remain between us under this moonlight.
And as the last piece of clothing falls to the ground, Jin Young drowned me in his love as I gave all of myself to him.
Annyeong dear readers! :)
thank you for your comments~ and as much as I don't want this to end. I've been writing this story for a year now, all the things that I have planned for them happened and there's nothing left for me to write for them now.
Even though I know there's a hundred other stuff that I can write for them. I don't want things to be long winded or for this story to be draggy.
There's only 2 more chapters before all of this end^^
With Love,
