"Feels good?" Jinhyuk whispers as he massages Jandi's scalp

Jandi is already half asleep but somehow manages a nod. Jihoo grunts

"What's your problem?" Jinhyuk looks up at Jihoo in disgust

"No-nothing" Jihoo shakes his head and looks away "I just think it's cheesy" he says under his breath"

"I'd rather term it as kind" Jinhyuk said audibly "something you should try sometime"

"Kindness and generousity are not my traits" Jihoo snapped

"Evidently"

"Well it doesnt get you anywhere, so I'm better off without them"

"Who says?" Jinhyuk mocked

"Well they have been way more than kind to her " Jihoo swayed his hand to the door, slightly rising from the chair "but she's leaving still"

"My explanation didnt go into your head at all did it?" Jinhyuk squinted his eyes in disbelief "Rude,careless and ignorant..wow! you'll surely go a long way!"

"Thank you" Jihoo responded sarcastically

=================================================================

"Well she fell asleep right away" Jinhyuk emerged into the living room "Hyunjoong, I think the cab has to wait till she gets up, is that alright?"

"It's fine. Siwon is here. He'll drive her whenever she's up. "

"That's great then. We should get going then, Seungyeon?"

"Sure" Seungyeon rose

"Wait! You're leaving?" Hyunjoong stopped them "What about Jandi?" Jinhyuk looked at him and raised an eyebrow "I mean what if she gets paranoid again knowing that you guys have left?"

"Hyunjoong just wipe that worry off your face. For the millionth time Jandi is fine. She'll be alright" Hyunjoong nodded and Jinhyuk started to proceed to the door with Seungyeon "Just keep that boy out of her way. That one is unstable" Jinhyuk said throwing one last look at the room where Jandi rested

"Did he mean Jihoo?" Dong Sun asked when Jinhyuk and Seungyeon left.

"He's right." Hyunjoong said as he sat back in his chair "The guy seem crazier than usual"

Somin and Jessica arrived with tea right on time to hear Hyunjoong's comment. They looked at each other and pursed their lips mischieviously

"What?" DongSun caught their actions.

Hyunjoong followed and seeing their faces he also realised they probably knew something "There's something going on right? You guys know something dont you?" he narrowed his eyes

"Well we don't know" Jessica denied right away.  Somin fervently shook her head following Jessica.

Ding Sun leaned closer and rested his head on the bridge formed by his intertwined fingers "Are we hiding things from each other now, honey?"  he said oh-so-effectionately. In so many years that they have known each other, it was the first time Dong Sun was so publically effectionate to her and Jessica just couldnt resist it.

"Well...we dunno..but we have a feeling" Jessica said shyly, as she moved to give each one their tea.

"So what exactly are you feeling?" Hyunjoong asked, following Dong Sun's lead, as Somin handed him his cup. He gently brushed his fingers as he took the cup from her. It was a very tiny action but the it had a much amplified reaction in Somin's body.

"Ok okay we are telling you...stop teasing us already!" Jessica giggled. Everyone laughed. Hyunjoong grabbed Somin's arm as soon as she placed the empty tray on the table and pulled her onto his lap. Somin blushed and fixed her skirt to be more comfortable beside him.

"Umm..Hyunjoong do you remember the day Somin skipped shoot?" Jessica inquired "The day right after you proposed to Haera"

"I really dont enjoy getting reminded of my past mistakes...but yeah" Hyunjoong said abit awkward and angry at the mention of those days

"Well do you recall how you were on that day?" Jessica asked and watched as Hyunjoong tried to remember. "Let me help you...you were a wreck! You were taking retakes after retakes, asking for her every five minutes to everyone on set"

Hyunjoong felt embarrassed but Somin enjoyed his reaction. He lovingly pinched his cheeks "You missed me" she said teasingly. Hyunjoong stuck out his tongue

"Exactly! He missed you bad! But he hadnt realized why till then.." Jessica dramatically finished waiting for others to understand her implication

"Jihoo likes Jandi?" HyungJun cried. Jessica beamed

"Woah" everyone gasped

"Wait a moment..I was hell worried about her too" Dong Sun reminded "Doesnt mean I love her...I mean I love her but as a brother...not romantically"

Jessica pursed her lips and thought for a while "You just have to ruin everything right?" she said, annoyed

"I dont intend to ruin anything. I am just trying to tell you guys to have an open mind" Dong Sun reasoned "Maybe he is simply worried, as a friend. Jihoo has been friendless for quite a while, and suffering too after his tiff with Somin--" he immediately turned to Somin who looked grim and apologetic.

"Well you wanted to know my theory...that's my theory" Jessica  stomped her feet "I think Jihoo is--"

"I am what?"

Everyone was shocked to see him standing at the edge of the living room.

"Res-Responsible enough...responsible enough not to leave things dangling...he-he must have wrapped up everything efficiently before coming back, right?" Jessica stuttered

Jihoo looked at everyone, something about their expressions struck him as really odd but he couldnt put a finger on it."Mm-hmm" he simply nodded

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Jihoo's eyes moved to Somin sitting on Hyunjoong's lap and then to Don Sun who wrapped his hand around Jessica. He didnt want to be in the room and excused himself to the kitchen

Somin looked down.

"It's not your fault" Hyunjoong whispered "He'll move on, dont worry" he planted a kiss on the side of her forehead

====================================================================================

As Jihoo got out of the kitchen with a bottle of water he stood face to face with Jandi, who just emerged from Somin's room. Jandi immediately looked down and then away when their eyes met andtried to tame her uncombed hair. For a few moments they just stood there looking at each other from the corner of their eyes and not saying anything. Finally Jandi walked away towards the living room and Jihoo followed trudgingly

"Hey everyone" Jandi said timidly

"Hi" everyone chimed. Everyone curiously looked at Jihoo who appeared behind her. After hearing Jessica's theory everyone seemed to pay extra attention to how Jihoo is around Jandi.

"How are you--" Somin intended to ask her how she was feeling but she remembered Jinhyuk and modified to say" Had a nice sleep?"

"Yes...I'm sorry. The cab probably have left."

"Dr. Jinhyuk must have given some real good massage. You slept like an angel" Somin said

"Oppa's massages are just amazing. They always put me to sleep" Jandi giggled "I used to tell him that if he never made it as a doctor he can always try for masseur"

"Ha! Can you convince him to give me one someday?" Somin urged

"Ahem" Hyunjoong cleared his throat audibly "Watch it wifey!"

"If not her, maybe me!" Jessica cried

"I dont think I will be very comfortable with that" Dong Sun said nonchalantly

Jessica smiled "Your doctor sunbae has given the boys some real competition here"

"He is pretty handsome isnt he?" Jandi giggled harder in excitement

Jessica and Somin looked away from their fiances and nodded in agreement

"Haha...show's over. Your cab is still waiting outside FYI" Jihoo rudely intervened.

Everyone looked at Jihoo in disbelief. A few moments ago the guy was furious because of her departure, now it seems he's just pushing her out.

"Umm..yea thanks.." Jandi nodded, without looking at Jihoo. Jihoo didnt know why he spoke so rudely. He didnt wish to admit it but Jinhyuk wasnt in his good books specially because how Jandi reacted to him

"Well shall we then Jandi?" Hyunjoong said and forwarded his hand to Jandi

"You're coming?"

"Ofcourse"

"You must be busy...you really dont need--"

"You saved the angel of my life. It's the least I could do"

Jandi smiled and took his hand.

"I'll come" Jihoo walked around Jessica and appeared beside them

"No thanks. You've already done enough" Hyunjoong said sternly. The fury in his voice was evident and though Jihoo didnt want to leave Jandi he knew that he is not winning this battle.

Just when  they were about to exit through the door, Hyunjoong's phone rang

"It's Paul" he murmured as he saw his name "Yes Paul...ah-huh..yea she's right here..." Hyunjoong looked at Jandi who stared back at him cluelessly "ummm...now..?" Hyunjoong moved away from the crowd but the others could still hear what he was saying "but she was actually leaving.....Busan..umm okay...I'll ask her...how long will it take you? Yea okay...I'll talk to her...yea bye"

"What is it?" Somin inquired

"Paul wants to meet Jandi" Hyunjoong said thoughtfully

"But why?" Jandi cried

"I dunno...he didnt say..he'll be here in a few mintues...Jandi could you please wait till then?"

Jandi nodded
