Seungyeon smiled then pushed Jonghyun and Jong Suk back to the living room. " You stay here and have some fun.. play something or watch a movie. I'll go make us something good to eat."

 

She then ran to the kitchen to cook something.

 

"Hmm.. anything you want to do then?" Jonghyun asked.

"Ummm... how about we study italian now.. we didn't have that much time to do that lately and, we won't have much time to do that anymore, if I go to Korea." Jong Suk said.

"Okay. Let's do that.. wait I'll just go get my books." Jonghyun ran upstairs.

 

A few hours passed by as Jonghyun and Jong Suk studied and Seungyeon was cooking.

 

They had all gathered to eat when they heard voices from the door as Krystal and Doojoon came home.

 

"Oh.. Krystal, come eat." Seungyeon said when Krystal walked in the kitchen. Krystal didn't say anything. She and Doojoon did not know about the real situation yet, they only knew about the scandal that was going on.

 

"How can you just eat peacefully here like this with them Jonghyun? Seungyeon cheated on you with him didn't she?" Doojoon muttered and glared at Seungyeon and Jong Suk.

 

"That's not the situation really. She didn't cheat on me. We will explain everything to you later. Now just eat okay." Jonghyun said.

"Then what is the real situation?" Krystal asked. "If they didn't sleep together then what happened?"

 

"Well it's complicated... but they didn't sleep together. They were drugged and set up like they slept togethere for the photos." Jonghyun explained.

"Why.. who would want to do that?" Krystal asked.

 

"Well, I think you will find out later." Jonghyun said not revealing about Sekyung yet.

 

~~~~~~~~~~

 

Time passed and it was already late at night.

"Is it okay that you sleep here on the couch Jong Suk?" Seungyeon asked pointing at the couch.

"Yeah, of course." Jong Suk nodded.

 

"Here." Jonghyun placed a pillow and a blanket on the couch for Jong Suk.

 

"Jong Suk, when you go back to Korea, you will still keep in touch with us right?" Seungyeon asked.

"Of course I will. You are my good friends now." Jong Suk smiled.

"Great. Come visit as often as you can!" Seungyeon exclaimed then went upstairs to their room.

 

Seungyeon looked around and sighed.

Everything seemed so bright when we first arrived to this house, and now it turned into all this...

 

She saw her bag in the corner. Guess I should start packing something already.

She opened her bag and started packing some of her things inside silently.

 

As she was taking some clothes from the drawers she felt arms hugging her from the back. "Who are you?" Seungyeon asked even though she knew very well that it was Jonghyun.

Jonghyun held her tighter. "What are you doing?"

 

Seungyeon turned around to face him. "Packing... "

"When will you come back to Korea then?"

 

"Soon, I hope." Jonghyun said and looked at her gently. "I don't want to stay away from you for too long."

"I hope nothing bad happens to you too if you stay here." Seungyeon whispered.

"Don't worry." Jonghyun said.

"About Sekyung.. what are you going to do?" Seungyeon bit her lip.

"I don't know yet, but I won't let her get away with this after all she did to you and Jong Suk." Jonghyun said and sat on the bed. Seungyeon sat down beside him.

 

"Is Jong Suk sleeping?" Seungyeon asked.

"Yeah, he fell asleep almost right away. Must've been tired." Jonghyun said.

"Well.. it was a stressful day today." Seungyeon said.

 

"You really do believe that I didn't sleep with Jong Suk right?" Seungyeon asked.

Jonghyun nodded. "I do. But what if we just forget about that now."

Seungyeon nodded and laid down on the bed and stared up at the ceiling.

 

"Remember when we were so awkward the first night we had to sleep here on the same bed." Seungyeon said smiling. "And you always went downstairs to sleep on the couch."

 

"Huh? You knew about it? I was trying to go there so you wouldn't know:" Jonghyun said.

"Of course I knew about it! Almost every night I woke up when you were sneaking out of here." Seungyeon giggled.

"But why would you do that?"

 

Jonghyun laid down beside her on his side leaning on his hand and stared at her. "Why did I do that? It's because.. I just liked you too much, I was afraid I would do something to you, if I slept with you here."

 

"Do what?" Seungyeon said inching slightly closer to Jonghyun.

"You want to know?" Jonghyun lifted his eyebrows.

"Mmm." Seungyeon nodded.

"Well I... wanted to.. do this." Jonghyun put his arm around Seungyeon and pulled her closer to himself. He inched closer to Seungyeon's face and first gave a light kiss on her lips, then pulled her hair aside and placed a few kisses down her neck all the way to her shoulders.

 

He then cupped her face with his hands and kissed her lips again, this time with more force and deeper, while he put his right hand on her waist. They kissed for a few minutes like that, then Jonghyun pulled away and gazed at Seungyeon's eyes.

 

"I wanted to do many things like these with you." Jonghyun whispered and smiled gently.

 

~~~~~~~~~~

 

The next morning Jonghyun woke up super early and went down stairs. As he started cooking Jong Suk came into the kitchen.

 

"Morning." Jonghyun said as he took ingredients out from the fridge.

"Morning." Jong Suk replied and sat on the chair near the counter. "What are you making?"

"Kimcheechige." Jonghyun replied.

"I'll help." Jong Suk got up to help Jonghyun.

 

As Jong Suk helped Jonghyun it was like a dream come true. He and Jonghyun were cooking together making breakfast happily. Jong Suk had only dreamed of this moment, cooking, smiling, holding Jonghyun from behind as he cooked on the shove, and eventually sharing a kiss after completing the meal. But Jong Suk knew not to get carried away. He quickly shoved those thoughts behind him and helped out.

 

With Jong Suk's help breakfast was complete. Jonghyun and Jong Suk sat in the living room watching the morning news.

 

"When you get back to Korea I have a favor to ask." Jonghyun said as the commercials started.

"What is it?" Jong Suk asked curiously.

"When you go back can you help Seungyeon." Jonghyun faced Jong Suk. "One of our friends, his name is Woohyun, is going down the wrong track because Seungyeon and I are going out. He likes her too, so he's not taking the fact that Seungyeon and I are going out very well. If I were there I could help put him in place, but I'm not going to be there and..."

 

Jonghyun stopped in mid sentence, looking down worried. Jong Suk got worried by looking at Jonghyun's grave expression.

 

"I'll help, but what's wrong?" Jong Suk went closer to Jonghyun.

"Seungyeon used to like him." Jonghyun replied. "I don't know if she still does or not, but the three of us went through a huge drama before we came to Italy. If we didn't come here I don't know if Seungyeon would even be dating me." Jonghyun choked out the truth. "I guess I'm scared that if Seungyeon goes back without me she'll start liking Woohyun again."

Jong Suk rubbed Jonghyun's back. "Don't worry about it. Seungyeon's your girlfriend. Trust her."

"I do, but I'm just scared." Jonghyun looked up at Jong Suk. "Anyways, can you help Seungyeon get Woohyun back on the right track. If she falls in love with him again, then I don't know what I'll do, but I'll deal with it when the time comes. Just help her please."

"I will. Just have faith in Seungyeon, and deal with the Sekyung issue here." Jong Suk replied.

 

Just then the TV showed a commercial with Sekyung in a bikini at the beach.

 

"Yuck, what a fake." Jong Suk commented. "Don't let that thing get to you."

"I won't. Besides my girl looks way better and she doesn't even have to be showing skin." Jonghyun also commented.

"That's the spirit." Jong Suk lightly slapped Jonghyun's back and laughed.

 

Little did the two boys know that through out the whole conversation they had, Seungyeon was listening from right on top of the stairs.

Does Jonghyun really have this little faith in me? He really thinks, I would just throw him away so easily if I see Woohyun again? Is he putting Jong Suk there to guard me or something?! Why can't he just trust me?

Seungyeon thought disappointed and angry.

 

She walked back to the bedroom and tied up her hair and changed her clothes, then walked downstairs. Her anger just kept on growing because of what she had heard Jonghyun say.

 

"Oh, morning Seungyeon. We made breakfast already." Jong Suk said when he saw Seungyeon.

"Thanks but i'm not hungry." Seungyeon said and glanced at Jonghyun. "I'm going out."

 

"What? Where would you go this early?" Jonghyun asked but Seungyeon had already walked out the door.
