“Look at her… She’s hideous!” “Such a NERD” “Her own family probably doesn’t even like her” “She was probably a mistake” “Her hair looks as bad as a jungle” “Fatty!”

                Those are the insults I go through every day. Always reminding me of how ugly I am and what a disgrace I am to this school.

“Yah! Nerd!” I recognized that voice instantly. I mean, I hear it every day so how could I not. “Yah! I’m talking to you,” he yelled again, grabbing my arm and making me turn around.

                Then suddenly, everything became quiet. No one dared to talk and just stared at us.

“Talk you idiot. Or did little Ms. Sunshine get her tongue cut off?” he said sarcastically.

                I just stayed quiet. This happens every single day and so I knew what was going to happen and if I talked or not wouldn’t change the events that were about to occur.

                He smirked and pushed me down to the floor. I suddenly saw someone hovering above me… though I knew who it was. I felt a sharp pain hit my left cheek and I realized he had just slapped me. I was used to this, so I was not scared of him anymore.

‘I have my luggage, I have my purse, my cell phone, laptop,’ I thought after checking for the fifth time if I had all my stuff. Suddenly two guys dressed in black approached me and took my luggage with them. Quickly catching up to them I asked, “What took you guys so long?”

“Sorry Miss, there was a really busy traffic,” answered the tallest one out of them.

“Oh okay. Well, I’m going to get a snack before going to the car, I’ll be there in ten minutes,” I said as my tummy grumbled.

They just nodded and walked out of the airport.

I sighed in relief and went to a snack bar in the food court where I got some chocolate chip cookies. “Ahh. Cookies … I love you…”

 I was walking back to the exit and turned a corner when suddenly I felt something hard hit my forehead and I landed on the ground.

“Ouchie…” I said. Then I saw the person I had bumped into. “I’m sorry, I should’ve been more careful.”

“Clearly,” he replied.

I looked into his eyes and for some reason, I couldn’t force myself to look away. ‘Those eyes…. Where have I seen them before?’

“Yah! What are you staring at?” he asked annoyed.

“Sorry,” I said shyly.

“You should be,” he mumbled.

‘Eh? He’s rude,’ I thought standing up, ‘What a shame. He looked nice.’

He stood up and walked around me. Suddenly I noticed four more guys standing where the rude dude was standing just seconds ago.

“Please excuse our maknae’s attitude,” said the one with blonde hair, “we don’t know what’s gotten into him.”

“It’s alright,” I didn’t want to tell them I actually thought he was being really rude, even though his hyungs here looked WAY nicer than him.

“I’m Key,” he said extending his hand for me to shake.

“Key, she probably already knows that,” the shortest guy said.

I just gave them a dumb-founded look, “What do you mean?”

“Oh please. Don’t try to act as if you don’t know what we’re talking about.” 'Okay…  Now he’s just being plain rude.'

“But I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I tried to reason.

“Does the name ‘SHINee’ ring a bell to you?” he said, obviously thinking I would understand.

I thought for a moment, “No not really. Why?”

“Well SHINee is just the number one band in Korea! How can you NOT know about us?” he yelled looking somewhat like an angry dino.

“Well I’m sorry for living in America for the past 5 years and not keeping up with Korean music!” I yelled right back.

He seemed taken aback, “A-America?”

“Yeah. That’s probably why I haven’t heard of you guys, but I’m not doubting you’re good,” I replied calmly.

“Oh you should’ve said that earlier,” he nervously said, “I’m Kim Jonghyun. That’s Key, even though you already know his name, that one with the dark hair is Minho and the one that’s wearing a ‘I love chicken’ shirt is Onew.”

“Nice to meet you,” I said bowing, “I’m Kim ------.”

“Annyeonghaseyo,” they all said bowing.

“Oh and that one who rudely bumped into you and did not apologize is Lee Taemin,” Key informed.

“Lee T-Tae-Taemin?” I asked surprised.

“Yeah. Why? You know him?” Jonghyun asked.

“Oh no. Of course not. I just thought it sounded familiar but no I don’t know him. Well of course I do NOW but I haven’t met him before today because I just met him today not ever before, just today,” I said silently praying they wouldn’t notice my lie. ‘I knew I had seen those eyes before.’

“Uh… Okaaaay…?” I knew I had confused Key, I guess I talked too fast, I just hope I wasn’t THAT obvious.

“Guys lets go,” that voice suddenly made me jump.

‘I can’t be scared of him. Its been five years. He won’t do anything, he won’t do anything,’ I reassured myself.

“Taemin, what’s wrong with you, can’t you see we’re talking to ------?” asked Key.

“I don’t care! I got my banana milk, Let’s go!” he yelled.

“Arrg. This kid, well …see you later ----- ! Can you give us your number?” Key asked politely.

“Sure,” I replied.

After we exchanged phones and I typed in my number in each of their phones and they typed their number in mine, we said our goodbyes.

“Uh Oh, I said I would be back thirty minutes ago. I gotta run,” I said to myself as I checked my watch.

When I finally made it to the car, the two bodyguards were looking around, a worried look plastered on their faces.

“Hehe, sorry?” I said lowering my head in shame.

“Miss! We’ve been looking all over for you,” one of them said.

“I’m sorry, I got distracted,” I apologized, “at least I’m okay right?”

“I guess,” he said and opened the door for me.

“Thank you,” I said as I sat down.

*30 minutes into the ride*

Yo! You’ve got a message~ ‘A message? From who?’

I then looked at my screen, ‘My precious Key Oppa.’

I tried hard not to laugh at the ridiculous contact name Key had put in my phone. ‘ Ahh. This Pabo.’

I opened up the text and it said:

 Annyeong ------------! :3 You like my contact name? It’s special and only for you ;) xD How’s it going?

~Key Kibummie ;)

I just couldn’t help it, I bursted out laughing so hard that both bodyguards turned around and gave me weird looks.

I  smiled sheepishly and quickly started typing a quick reply to his text:

Annyeong Pabo, I’m going to tell you the truth…. YOUR CONTACT NAME MADE ME LAUGH SOOOO MUCH xD I feel special… Im goin’ to keep it like that ;) Everything’s going fine… Not home yet so… Oh I couldn’t help but notice that neither Minho or Onew talked at all during our encounter at the airport… I don’t think they like me at all D’: Can u ask them if they think I’m annoying or something? Thanks.

~------------ <333

I waited a few minutes for his reply but it never came. I felt kind of sad because of that but then my ringtone rang again and this time when I opened up the text I saw it wasn’t from Key but from ‘Chicken Lovaah?’:

------? Hehe, Hey! Im sorry if Minho or me didn’t talk much at the airport… I’m kinda shy :3 and well Minho is too but he usually loosens up after a bit. J Im sorry if you thought we didn’t like you… its not that. Well … uh … :P Nice meeting you and hope to see you soon.

~ILoooveeeeChicckeeeen!:D

‘Uh … he does seem a bit shy,’ he still seems nicer than Taemin though and he seems to like Chicken a lot.

I didn’t want to leave him hanging so I sent him a message too:

:D Glad to know that you guys don’t think I’m annoying :/ You’re shy? Eh don’t worry … we’ll be great friends :D As of for Minho tell him to text me in 15 minutes ok? And tell Jonghyun to send me a text too.

~-----------<333

Two minutes later I heard my ringtone again. ‘Probably Jonghyun,’

I knew I was right when I saw the contact name appear. ‘Jjongie, HotDino’

I stifled a laugh, ‘These guys are funny!’

The text read:

I was feeling pretty lonely there love. I thought you would forget about texting me so I felt a bit relieved when Onew told me to send you a text ;) Are you home yet? And shouldn’t your eyes be on the road instead of on your phone? Naughty little girl !

~YoYoYoItsJonghyun!;)

I smiled a bit, even though I haven’t known him for that long, I knew he wasn’t flirting. He was just being friendly.

I then sent him a text back:

Hey, now wouldn’t it be a bit unfair if I texted all the other members and not you? And no pabo me ish not dwiving :3! NOT HOME YET!  So I ish not naughty :P

~----------<333

After I sent him the text I waited almost no time until the next text came:

Yeah I guess it would be unfair but hey! Who says you’re not that kind of person :3 So who’s driving? Your boyfriend? :'(Hope you get home fast :P

~YoYoYoItsJonghyun!;)

I quickly texted a reply:

Ani… I don’t have a boyfriend… my bodyguards are driving :P Oh and I gotta go. Tell Minho to text me K? :P

~-----------<333

I felt myself grin when I got my next text… From ‘MinhoAegyoPrince:3’:

Hey, Uhhh… Onew and Jonghyun told me to text you…. Idk wut to say :3

~DibidibidisMyNameIsMinho!;3

Haha! Nice signature ^^ Love it. What is it like ur catchphrase or something?

~---------<333

Nope! It’s something I say in a song and I thought it was kinda funny :3

~DibidibidisMyNameIsMinho!:)

Ohhhh. Awesome. So how u doing?.....

And that’s how the rest of the ride went. Minho and I texting endlessly. We talked about my life in America, his life here in Korea…. Apparently he likes to work out….

~~~~~~~~~~~~Meanwhile In SHINee’s van

“Yah! Minho who are you texting?” asked Taemin.

“No one!” he replied while grinning and looking at his phone.

“He’s texting ---------,” Jonghyun said with a jealous tone.

Minho then looked at Jonghyun. “Aww. Jongie…. Are you jealous?”

“I don’t like that girl,” said Taemin while scrunching up his nose.

All the members looked at him.

“She’s the one that shouldn’t like you since you were the one that bumped into her and never said a simple sorry,” Key said calmly.

Taemin glared daggers at him. His eyes turning into dangerous slits. “What did you just say?”

“Admit it Taemin, he’s telling the truth,” Onew then said.

“You’ve been rude to her ever since you bumped into her,” Minho said while still texting, “and at least she said sorry.”

“But- Yah! Dude! Stop texting!” Taemin said as he snatched Minho’s phone away from him. What he saw in the screen shocked him. Apparantly, ------- had sent Minho a picture of herself winking and blowing a kiss to the camera for her contact picture and then he saw that the texts between them had winky and smiley faces all over them. He felt rage, he didn’t know why though. Damn! He didn’t even know why he was being so disrespectful to his hyungs.

“Taemin! What’s up with you? Respect your hyungs!” Jonghyun shouted.

Minho then snatched his phone away and started texting ------ again. Taemin saw this and his anger rose. He felt like he needed to break that phone so that they could never text ever again.

For the rest of the ride Taemin was sitting quietly in his seat thinking of why he was reacting like this all of a sudden. He couldn’t come up with one reasonable answer though. Just then… he remembered someone from his past, someone who was a big part of his life 5 years ago.

“Uh… hyung… what was --------‘s full name?” he asked shaking. ‘Please don’t be her. Please don’t be her’

“Kim ---------, why?” said Jonghyun.

As I got out of the car I smiled widely to myself. I had texted Minho to tell everyone that I was home and that we would text each other later. It was great to finally be back home. I entered my house and accidentally forgot to take out my shoes when I got in.

“------------!” my mom shouted.

“Umma!” I shouted back grinning.

“Take your shoes off young lady,” my mom scolded me.

“Oh… yeah sorry I forgot,” I apologized.

She just smiled. “Welcome back honey.”

I hugged her, I missed her so much.

“So… no hug for me?” someone said behind me.

“Appa!” I said running to him and tackling him on the sofa, “I missed you guys so much.”

“And we missed you sweetie,” your mom said happily.

“I’ll tell Yoona to take your luggage to your room,” my appa said.

Minho texted me again. He said that SHINee was having a concert in a mall close by and he invited me to see them. He said I could go backstage with them… but I have to meet them before the concert for that. I of course said yes.

This was my first time driving a car in Korea so I needed a GPS to locate where I had to meet Minho.

“Hey!” someone shouted behind me. I turned around, my smile disappearing.

“W-What? Where’s Minho?” I asked him.

“He told me to come pick you up and bring you to them,” he answered.

“Oh,” was all I said.

We went to his car and stayed silent until he pulled over an abandoned street.

“Uh… What are we doing here?” I asked him.

“I know who you are,” I widened my eyes, “and I know you know who I am.”

“What do you mean?” I asked hoping this was all a big prank.

“Five years ago? I’m the reason you moved to America,” Taemin said.

“N-No you’re not. I didn’t know you back then,” I stuttered.

“Don’t deny it. I know he truth,” he said.

I was in shock. ‘How did he find out? Who told him?’ “How did you find out?”

“Let’s just say you were a big part in my life. Hard to forget,” he smiled slightly.

“Why? Because you bullied me? Because I was weak and easy to use?” I asked a little pained.

He frowned. “You really thought I hated you?”

“Well you’re not going to love me when you bully me,” I mumbled.

Unfortunately, he heard. “B-But, I…”

He then grabbed my face in his hands and kissed me. I was shocked for about the third time today. His lips were soft on mine. The kiss ended too soon for my liking though.

“I had a crush on you before I started bullying you,” he said blushing, “but I thought you would reject me so the only way I thought I could get close to you was by bullying you.”

“But-“

“Then one day you didn’t come to school,” he continued, “I thought maybe you were sick but I got worried after a week.” He bit his lip and his eyes got teary, “I blamed myself because I thought I maybe hurt you too much and something bad happened to you.”

I then started to fidle with a necklace I always kept under my shirt.

He smiled. “You know, I gave you that necklace, I can't believe you're wearing it thought. Because you didn't know who gave it to you.”

“Y-You gave me this?” I stuttered.

“Yeah… I-I have the other half,” he then took out a half heart necklace that had the letters ‘LO’ in it.

I blushed, then connected the hearts.

He smiled. “I put it in your locker because I didn’t want you to know I gave it to you.”

“Uh Taemin, shouldn’t we get going? For the concert?” I asked shyly.

“Yeah, about that I took Minho’s phone and texted you that because I wanted to talk to you.”

“Oh… T-Taemin?”

“Huh?”

I kissed him. I couldn’t help it… I just kissed him and felt those sparks I have been waiting for all my life.
