Seoul Rehabilitaion Center

You had just finished calling Tae Yang about getting your stuff when Sol Ki went in the room with pain killers in one hand and Water in the other.

                     "what? you're just going to give me pain killers and not treat my ankle? just because i won't pay you-" You asked

                     "hold your horses, madam. i brought it in advance so the pain killers would take effect immediately. i know how you hate pain. and who ever said this is free!? nothing is free now a days." Sol ki said

                      "why not? i told you already, i don't have my bag with me. hence, no wallet. no wallet means no money." You said

                      "who said anything about money?" Sol Ki asked

                      "then how do you suppose i pay?" you looked at Sol Ki and you automatically cover your chest  with your arms.

                      " No, oppa. please dont." you said,with big doe eyes, trying to look frightened.

                      "oh, you really know me that well, huh?" Sol ki gave you a seductive smile and started going near you  and just when his lips was an inch away from your yours, you both burst out laughing. yes, you guys were comfortable enough with each other that even green jokes didnt make you feel awkward towards each other.

                      "okay, enough fooling around. Since my birthday is coming around, you need to give a nice gift." Sol Ki said

                       "wait, coming around? tch. isnt it like 5 months from now?" You asked

                       "yes. so you'll have time to prepare an awesome gift. deal?" Sol Ki extended his hand 

                       " deal!" you and took his hand for a handshake.

Sol Ki starts treating our ankle. He carefully looks at you ankle. and starts rotating it. you wince and the pain. *urgh. i hate feeling pain.

                       "Bare youself,_______. okay? this is going to hurt." Sol Ki Warned you

                       "here" he handed you a towel "bite on it when it hurts too much okay?" Sol Ki said

You nodded. and you stuffed the towel in your mouth. urgh. Okay you can do this. it's just a little pain. just a little pain. As Sol Ki treated your ankle biting the towel wasnt enough for you the pain was too much; tears started to roll down your cheeks. 

                         "Done."  Sol ki carefully wrapped your ankle

                         "thanks." you muffled 

                         "You are such a cry baby." Sol ki said as he wiped the tears of you cheeks

 You just gave him a why-are-you-so-mean look. He just laughed and messed up your hair.  and he handed you the pain killers

                          "What happened anyway?" Sol Ki sat next to you as he handed you the bottled water

                          "I tripped and twisted my ankle." 

                          "on your first date? what a way to leave an impression." he said sarcastically

                          "It was'nt a date. we bumped into each other and we decided to hang out. since we were alone." you defended

                          "What ever you say, just be careful next time okay?" He said

                          "uhm." You yawned and rested you head on Sol Ki's shoulder.

                          "Sleepy?" Sol Ki asked you 

                          "yes. very." You yawned again.  

                          "okay, wait here a sec." Sol Ki went and signed out and gathered his things. but when he went back in the treatment room where you were, you were already sleeping like a baby.Sol Ki sighed *This is college waiting to happen again.  Sol Ki Slipped his hand under you and he carried you bridal style to his car. While Sol Ki Drove you home, he remembered how he got himself into this blissful mess-you call your life.

FLASHBACK Sol Ki (Tim’s) POV

I was nervous like hell. It felt like my heart would explode. *you can do this. You can do this. I thought to myself, trying to calm my self down. My hands were so cold yet I felt warm inside, knowing that I could finally tell her how I really felt after keeping it in for 2 years. Finally, I gathered enough courage to tell her. After a few minutes of waiting for her, I finally see her running silhouette towards me. *why is she running? I wondered but when she was close enough that I could see her face, she was covering it with both her hand. She was crying. I hid the flower behind my back. And without warning she came crashing towards me, she hugged me and buried her face in my chest; soaking my shirt with her tears. The sound of her sobs broke my heart; I knew she was hurt and I didn’t know why. I let go of the flowers and hugged her back, trying my best to comfort her.

                         “shhh. Please don’t cry,______-ah.”  I said trying to comfort her

She was mumbling something in to my chest. I couldn’t understand her. I tried to pull her off my chest so I could understand her but she just hugged me tighter.

                          “What’s wrong?” I whispered into her ears

                          “My heart. It hurts. it hurts so much.” She finally spoke. At that I didn’t know what to do.

                          “How can I ease the pain?” I asked her, not even caring to ask the reason. not even having the need to know why, I just wanted the pain to go away. I could'nt bare seeing her in so much pain

                           "just hold me. don't let go." She begged me. My heart hurt at the pain her voice contained

After a few minutes, She was finally calm enough to talk to me about it. 

                          "I'm sorry. but atleast he's in a better place,right? no more pain? " I tried my best to ease the pain

                          "I guess so." she smiled at me weakly                          

                          "Everything is going to be alright. Don't worry. we're still here. I'm Still here." I said

She didnt respond and just rested her head on my shoulder.

                          "thank you, tim. You are the Best Best Friend anyone can ever ask for." She said

Even though her statement was for Enderment purposes, but it hurt like hell for me. it was like she stabbed my heart with a knife and twisted it before she pulled it out.  *best friend is that all you will ever think of me? I wondered.

                           "Don't ever leave me, Okay?" She said as she took my hand and held it

                           "never." i answered.

                           "Promise?" She asked she held out her pinky to me

                           "promise." i answered and intertwined my pinky with her out stretched finger.

                           "I love you, Tim. You're the best. I wish you were my older brother cause I know you will never leave me." She said     

*ouch. there she goes again. I stayed silent for a while and just looked at the view of the dark sea infront of us. when i turned to look at her, her she was peacfully asleep on my shoulders with tear stains on her cheeks.

                                    "I love you too. i will never leave you. I will always be here to helo youpick up the pieces of your heart." I said as i tucked a a strand of hair behind her ear.
