13 YOUR NUMBER
Lee Taemin Superstar13 YOUR NUMBER
(POV - Kibum)
Thank god Taemin has left with Jonghyun to go to the concert venue for sound check and other pre-show logistics. Since we got back here at the hotel, I’ve been wanting some alone time. The reason? I need to get a grip.
I always knew I would enjoy going around Tiong Bahru. But I didn’t expect that going there with Taemin will make it a grand time for me. A special time.
I just have to salvage my good sense since all I’ve been thinking about is the kiss. Ironically, it was just a quick peck on the cheek, but it seems to haunt me more than the first time I experienced passionate kissing. And this causes me to worry. The way I am shaken by such a small, simple act means that the person who committed this act affects me in a non-small, non-simple way.
It was a kiss of gratitude and nothing more. Taemin felt excited and grateful for the gift he didn’t expect to receive, thus the affectionate gesture. That is all there is to it. Get a grip, Kim Kibum.
Before my crazy side argues against this, I receive a text message. A divine intervention. It’s a text from Kai.
KAI: Hi Key. Taemin gave me your number--
See? Taemin gave Kai my number. I am not that dense to miss the signals; I know that Kai is interested in me. And since he and Taemin are best friends, of course Kai has told him about it. And Taemin gave him my number. This is enough to dispel any notion that there is something romantic developing between me and Taemin.
It feels as if a sliver of glass has pierced the flesh of my heart, so I welcome the distraction that is Kim Jongin a.k.a. Kai.
I continued to read his message...
KAI: I’m watching d concert tonight. I’m going alone so i’m thinking maybe we can watch together? :->
The memory of Taemin’s soft lips on my cheek still lingers. It has to stop.
I send my reply:
Hi Kai. Sounds good. See you later. :)

It was’t a bad idea at all.
Kai and I talked the whole time we were waiting for the show to start, and I didn’t get bored for a second. Kai is fun and easy to talk to. And it’s apparent that he’s a good person. No wonder he and Taemin are best friends.
He has a iness factor too. I was ready to make a mental list of traits that constitute to Kai’s iness when the lights suddenly go off... and taking the center stage, under a fiery orange spotlight, is Lee Taemin. In all leather.

Doing what I love best, and in front of my loyal supporters, is always exhilarating for me. But tonight, I just feel an extra dose of glee and energy. And I won’t den
