"yoona-noona!" kyungsoo shouted across the room, as he saw yoona walking by the hallway. she was wearing her casual yoga pants and sports bra, as jongin blushed by the sight. added by her hair that was tied in a bun with some of her hair falling and her charming smile, he could not help but adore the living goddess meters away from him. but as she gets closer, he feels his stomach do some cartwheels and he excused himself. "where are you going, kai?"

she's just centimeters away from him, and all he could mutter was 'bathroom'. before kyungsoo could even respond, he was already running away from the two, who were left dumbfounded by his sudden change of attitude. he locked himself inside the bathroom, and physically smacked his head. stupid jongin. you missed your chance!

days passes by after the incident, and smtown tour is nearing. he was quite excited forit because he was assigned to be in a group to perform a dance battle, among sm's best dancers. he used this situation as an excuse, so he can finally drift his mind away from yoona.

or so he thought.

he was smiling happily as he walked inside the room, seeing only tao, yunho and taemin. he sat down and started a small chat with them, and was patiently waiting for the choreographer. soon enough, he asked them if the choreographer is still attending or not. yunho got his water bottle from his bag, and answered jongin's question.

"we're still waiting for the three members of snsd." when he heard the name snsd, his heart suddenly beated faster, and hishands were trembling. what if she's included? he cannot concentrate on their conversation, when suddenly the door opened, revealing the ladies they were all waiting for. his jaw dropped as he have seen the least person he wanted to see.

throughout their first practice, he was doing good. but it was not enough for him. more sessions passed by, and he seems so distracted, that taemin suddenly worried about his condition. even he was shocked because of the lack of participation of jongin throughout their practices. he did not seemed so hyper as usual, and instead, he seems so quiet and hard to approach.

jongin reassured faemin that he's fine, but the latter won't believe him. he was then forced to tell his 'little secret' he have been hiding for days. instead of an advice, taemin just laughed at him, telling that he was 'reaching for the unreachable star'.  sighing , jongin just left taemin there, proceeding to an empty room and started dancing his heart away.

after some shouting and intense dance moves, jongin finally finished his dance, and heard a loud clap from afar. he looked by the door, and saw that she is there, smiling brightly, and looking proud. he immediately turned around to hide his blushing face, and fixed his things. he was about to go out but yoona's voice have stopped him.

"you're going to run again, jongin?" he was startled, but felt quite happy for his crush have called him by his real name. he bit his lower lip to prevent from smiling, as yoona frowned. "do i scare you all that much? it seems like you do not like me at all." there she goes again with her irresistible pout, as her long hair was all on one side. he examined her: her perfect face structure, her slim body, and her undeniably flawless legs. he gulped, as his sunbae's intense stare makes his stomach churn.

it might sound gay, but only she has that effect on him that makes him go nuts.

he ruffled his hair frustratingly, as yoona looked at him amazed. he bit his lower lip as he returned the stare at yoona, and blushed furiously as she smirked in response. swallowing all his fears, he took a step forward, and another step, then another--and finally arrived in front of her. he sighed heavily, and gathered up all his courage before speaking.

"noona, i like you."
