I woke up to a sunny, blue sky above me and a beautiful, sweet boy next to me.

Last night, after we had walked on the beach, we came back in and got in bed. We talked until I fell asleep, and I can't even remember what the last thing I said was. But I was pretty sure it was 'I love you,'

I kissed Taemin on his forehead and went downstairs to say good morning to the rest of SHINee. They were so loud I could hear them from all the way upstairs.

"Good morning oppas~" I said.

"Alina! Good morning! How was your sleep?" Onew asked.

"It was good, thanks! And how was yours?" I replied, happily. Onew was so sweet.

"Good, thank you~"

"I bet yours was good with Taemin sleeping next to you," Key said, winking at me.

"Shut up!" I squealed, blushing.

"You two SLEEP together?!" Jonghyun exclaimed.

"Yeah, remember how we discovered it at first..? Funny times..." Minho said.

"Oh right, I guess I can never really get used to it," Jonghyun said, ruffling my hair.

"Anyway, is Taemin still sleeping?" Minho asked me.

"Nae~ I swear, he's such a baby~" I said, giggling.

"Yes, he is," Minho agreed.

"Well, Alina, you should go wake him up because breakfast is ready, and I'm not waiting for him~" Key said, flipping pancakes on a griddle. I had to chuckle.

"Okay, umma~" I said.

"Now you call me that too?" He sighed.

I skipped up the stairs to the room and quietely opened the door. Taemin was still peacefully sleeping. In his sleep, he looked like he did back in his debut days, when he was just a cute little boy. I got back in bed with him and hugged him tightly. He slowly opened his eyes and smiled, digging his head into my neck. 

"Stop it, that tickles~!" I said, giggling.

He smiled and yawned cutely.

"Oppa~" I called.

"Naeeeee~" He said.

"Breakfast is ready~ Key told me to get you~" I said, and Taemin instantly got up. I giggled and followed him downstairs.

That day, we played in the water as usual. I was worried about that night, since it was finally his long awaited birthday, and we were throwing him a surprise party. We were inviting his close friends like 2pm, B2ST, Super Junior, etc. They all agreed to come, so it was sure to be a fun party. But I couldn't help but be nervous. 

The plan went like this: Taemin and I would stay upstairs, watching TV and such as we got ready to "go out to dinner" when we are actually getting ready for  the party. I have to distract Taemin and make sure he doesn't leave the room. Finally, when Key or any of the other members call us, I'll bring him downstairs where everyone will surprise him.

The day went along, and finally, it was almost time for the party. We sat on the bed, watching TV, as I waited for SHINee's signal.

Taemin was so cute and gullible. He had no clue that we were planning anything. It was almost too easy for me. 

"Taelina~ Come down!" Minho finally yelled to us.

"Kaja~" I said to Taemin, grabbing his hand, and trying to keep calm. My stomach started to tumble around. 

We walked down the stairs and I couldn't hear or see anyone. Then suddenly, as we reached the last step, everybody popped out and screamed, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TAEMIN!"

Taemin was so surprised he hid behind me, then sighing and relaxing when he realized who had came. "Uwah~" He said, then saying thanks to everyone for coming.

"You did this?" Taemin whispered to me.

I nodded.

"You're so cute~ Gomawo~" He said, kissing me quickly. It was the first time he kissed me in front of so many people. My cheeks burned and I couldn't help but smile of embarrassment.
