“Cut!”
Cut. The word that I hated to hear the most. No, hate is an understatement, I detested that word. It’s like splashing cold water to my face and saying ‘wake up from that fantasy world of yours you idiot’.
For some reason, I am in some kind of an unrequited, one-sided love with my boyfriend, if only he truly is my boyfriend.
Jaejoong is my co-worker slash celebrity lover slash number one enemy in the world. We met five years ago to film an action movie wherein Jaejoong and I are partners and we have to kill some ridiculous aliens and save the world from ending or something like that.
Anyway, back to my problem. I was stupid back then because I gave him a not so pleasant first impression of me when I mocked his pretty face. But what else was I supposed to do to hide the embarrassing expression of my face when my manager introduced us to each other?
“Yunho, this is Kim Jaejoong. He is new at the industry but he’s very good in acting I assure you.”
“Nice to meet you Yunho-ssi. Please take care of me.” Jaejoong said as he bowed politely and smiled at him.
Yunho was stunned for a minute and just stared at the beauty in front of him. The guy has perfectly styled raven hair that complements his flawless and baby-like skin, he also has innocent looking doe eyes, sharp and pointy nose and red pouty lips. His body is lean and fit like a man but has curves like a woman.
“Earth to Yunho. Admire his features later big boy and greet him like a gentleman first.” His manager said as he waved his hands in front of the poor frozen guy.
“What are you talking about Yoochun? I’m not admiring his looks, I’m just doubting if he will fit his role as my partner.”
“What are you talking about, he’s very…”
“His face is too girly. It’s disgusting.”
I did not mean to say that. I panicked and my stupid pride just spoke on its own.
Sadly, ever since that day, Jaejoong never spoke to me off the camera again.
∞A year after the success of the blockbuster action film, the viewers (stating that we have a very strong chemistry) were demanding that we have to make a movie again. What the viewer wants, the viewer gets. So the company decided to cast the two of us together again but this time, it’s not an action movie but a romantic drama film.
“What the hell Chun?! You know that that guy hates me and now you’re telling me to film a romantic movie with him?!”
“It’s not my fault that you have a shit personality you know. Besides, it’s not the company’s decision. We had a poll on the internet to know what kind of relationship the two of you will play that would please the viewers. Surprisingly, they want the two of you to be lovers.”
“Well, even if I agree to this, I know that Jae wouldn’t.”
“Oh but I’m sorry to tell you my friend that I talked to him already and without second thoughts, he said yes.”
I haven’t apologized yet but somehow when Yoochun told me that Jaejoong agreed to work with me again, I thought that he forgave me and decided to befriend me instead of ignoring me again in the set.
Unfortunately, I was very very wrong.
“Don’t leave me DoHoon-ah! I love you so much! I don’t care even if it’s dangerous! I’m willing to die with you!” A weeping Jaejoong said as he hugged the back of the leaving Yunho.
“Don’t be so full of yourself MuWon-ssi, I’m not leaving you because it’s dangerous to be with me. I don’t love you, I didn’t love you and I will never love you. I’m just using you for these past two years. Goodbye.”
“And cut! That was very good Jaejoong and Yunho! Let’s have a 15 minute break.”
As if Jaejoong has an off button, he immediately let go of Yunho’s back and grabbed the tissue given by his assistant and went to his dressing room.
Yunho was wrong when he thought that Jaejoong was willing to be friends with him. Their relationship was the same again, not talking after the camera is not rolling.
He angrily kicked the door to his dressing room feeling very frustrated. The guy is pissing him off. He only said one word and he didn’t even mean it. Yes he haven’t explained himself and apologized yet but, that’s not the point.
“Why are you acting like this again? The director said you did great!” Yoochun said as watched the scared make-up artist hurriedly leave the room.
“I don’t know what’s the problem of that guy anymore, I’m sick of being intimate with him in front of the camera but when we’re not, he’s treating me like I don’t fucking exist!”
“Well, it was your fault to begin with. And besides, you’re not talking to him too. You are supposed to be the one to approach him first.”
“Why should I? I’m the Jung Yunho, I don’t talk to people first.”
Yoochun looked at him disgustingly.
“Why are you staring at me like that? It’s true!”
“I’m just curious, why do you even care if Jaejoong talks to you or not? It’s not like you cared about your other partners before. You’re even pissed at them when their attention is always on you.”
“It’s because he said he loves me!”
“He loves DoHoon, not you idiot.”
I realized that I have a little crush on Jaejoong after Yoochun said that. But my pride is bigger than that little crush so we continued to ignore each other. That was the worst week of my life. To have a beautiful and out of this world creature pretend to be madly inlove with you and at the same time ignore your existence is the worst experience a person can ever encounter.
I tried to forget him after the movie was finished. I dated many popular and beautiful celebrities and just when I thought that I am doing a very good job in forgetting him, Yoochun decided to ruin it all for me.
“You will have a project with Kim Jaejoong again.”
∞
Yunho can’t focus on his photoshoot, there’s only one thing on his mind and that is, he will meet Kim Jaejoong again.
Kim fucking Jaejoong.
The man that was penetrating his dreams ever since he first saw him. The man he desperately tried to forget. The man he had a little crush on but obviously hated him.
“Have a five minute break Yunho, you’re dozing off again.”
Yunho sat down and drank his bottled water. He needs to focus, why does that guy have so much effect on him?
Why does he care if they’re going to see each other again? He’s Jung Yunho. Voted as the hottest Korean man alive. A mere Kim Jaejoong should not affect him like this.
Yes, a mere Kim Jaejoong cannot affect him at all.
That’s what he thought and he’s very much wrong again. He’s always wrong when it comes to a certain raven haired guy or should he say, brunette.
Yunho didn’t think that it would be humanly possible but Jaejoong was a hundred times hotter and prettier than when he first met him. He can tell that he had been working out. His hair is shorter and the color emphasizes the structure of his perfect face.
“Hi Yunho! Long time no see! You missed me?”
Apparently, it’s not only Jaejoong’s face that changed, his personality seemed to be a bit (too early to say) better.
“Hi Jae, you look great.” Yunho said as he offered his hand to him.
“Gee thanks, but what happened to you? You look…” Jae said and looked at him like he’s the most pitiful person in the world.
“I look what?” Yunho said, somewhat pissed at the look the other guy was giving him. He looks what? He’s the hottest guy in the country as far as he knows. Not as beautiful as Jaejoong but on the manliness side, he definitely wins.
“I’d rather not say it. I’ll just try to enjoy working with you. Ciao!” The laughing guy said as he proceeded to his dressing room.
Yunho doesn’t know why he’s not offended to Jaejoong’s attitude towards him. He was rather amused by this current situation. He preferred to be treated that way than be ignored and go through that hell again. This time he’s decided. He will make Kim Jaejoong fall for him.

“What was that for Jae?! You just humiliated Jung Yunho in front of the whole staff! You’re unbelievable.” A raging Junsu said as he closed the door to Jaejoong’s dressing room.
“I’m just returning what he did to me a few years ago! And have you seen his reaction? It was so hilarious!”
“That’s not the point here mister! You can’t repeat your stupid attitude again you hear me? What if he backs out because of this? Changmin’s going to kill me.” He shivered as he imagined the wrath of Changmin being poured on him again.
“Relax Su, I’m just messing with him. It won’t happen again, I promise.”
Junsu gave a defeated sigh and left. Jae felt guilty but he can’t help it. A few years ago, he was very happy to find out that he will be working with his long time crush only to have his feelings crushed and shattered when he called him disgusting. Nevertheless, he’s not a child anymore. Maybe he can try to be nice in front of Yunho.
∞“Uhmm, is there a problem?” Jaejoong looked at the guy in front of him creepily staring at him. They’re currently waiting for the set-up to be finished and were asked to stay at their dressing rooms first. Suspiciously, Yunho said that he will wait with him together.
“Jae, I think there’s something wrong with my eyes.” Yunho said while he continue to stare at the poor uncomfortable guy.
“Really? What’s wrong with it?”
“I can’t take them off of you.” He said with a blank and serious look on his face.
Jaejoong was taken aback and unconsciously blushed. Did Yunho just flirt with him? Is this revenge for what he did last time?
The adorable and shy look on Jaejoong’s face made Yunho’s heart skip a beat. Damn the gorgeousness of this pretty boy.
“Maybe if I poke them they will look away.” he said as he glared at the man to hide his embarrassment.
“Or maybe it was you who needs to be poked.”
And now dirty talking? What is wrong with this guy today? Just when he’s decided that he will try to be friends with him. He was about to say his comeback when Yoochun shouted outside telling them to get ready because the photoshoot will start in five minutes.
“See you later, gorgeous.” Yunho said, winking before he left the room.
∞
“For the last time Yunho you can’t wear that to the photoshoot! It will ruin the whole concept!”
“What is wrong with it? I really need to wear this or else I wouldn’t be able to handle it!”
“Handle what? Yoochun, please make some sense out of him. Call me when I can understand what he’s talking about.” The photographer angrily left the studio. He had worked with Yunho in the past but this is the first time that he saw him act so weird.
“I told you Yunho, you can’t wear that pot holder in the shoot, it looks so out of place and… weird!” Yoochun said as he tried to take the pot holder from Yunho’s hands. They’re fighting over it when Jaejoong walked over to them.
“What are you guys doing?”
“Oh good Jae you’re here! Can you please tell Yoochun here that I should wear this pot holder in the photoshoot later?” Yunho said as he hid behind Jaejoong’s back.
“Uhh, why do you need that pot holder? I thought the concept was spies and assassins. Was it changed to cooking?”
“No, Jae, the concept was still the same. I just need this pot holder because you’re too hot to handle.”

Ever since that weird day at the photoshoot, Yunho has been bugging him almost all of the time. He seems to be there wherever Jaejoong goes and as much as he'd like a stalker as hot as Jung Yunho, it's kind of creeping him out.
He was filming a commercial for a make up product when Yunho came and approached him with a bag full of pastries shocking everyone in the set. He can hear whispers of 'are those two dating?' and 'omg this will be a trending topic!'
He eyed him suspiciously as Yunho placed the pastries on his lap.
"What are you doing here?" Jaejoong didn't move and just continue to stare at the grinning guy.
"I was on the way and thought that I should drop by and say hello. Hello guys!" he then waved at the staff and they giggled. They didn't know that Yunho has this side of him.
Jaejoong just rolled his eyes and placed the pastries on his table.
"By the way, you should eat those immediately."
"And why is that? Did you put something in it?"
"No, those have phosphorus, calcium and magnesium and enough protein and carbohydrates to make you taller."
"What? I won't grow taller anymore, I'm 26 years old!"
"Really? Because I think you're getting smaller everytime I see you."
Jaejoong raised his eyebrow and unbelievably looked at the stupid guy. That's not scientifically possible right?
"It's true! For a minute you've reached my head but the next thing I knew you're just in my heart."
∞
That was not the end of it. The guy even got his number and texted him almost thrice a day! He's not replying until now when Yunho texted him something that made him mad.
From: Idiot
Subject: >:)
Message: Jae, I think you're stalking me. :)
To: Idiot
Subject: go to hell
Message: I certainly am not, dream on!
From: Idiot
Subject: :")
Message: don't be shy, I am very sure it was you who went to my dream last night :)
Jaejoong didn't reply after that
∞
Jaejoong doesn't know what to do with Yunho anymore. There's this part of him where he wants to believe that Yunho is really serious about him but the event that happened on their first meeting kept playing with his head like telling him 'he's just playing with you'. He's getting ready for another photoshoot when he heard a commotion outside of his dressing room. He went out and...
"There's the thief Mr. Policemen! Get him!"
Everyone at the studio was shocked at the scene that was happening. Yunho suddenly barged in with two policemen at his side pointing at Kim Jaejoong and saying he's a thief. The policemen went to him and grabbed his arms saying 'you have to go with us Mr. Kim Jaejoong'.
"I did no such thing sir I swear! What's wrong with you?! I did not steal anything from you! Do you have any evidence?!" Jaejoong said as he pushed the policemen ready to beat the crap out of the smirking bastard in front of him.
"Yes Yunho, what the hell are you doing man? You're making a scandal right now!" Yoochun whispered as he tried to stop Yunho and for the nth time, make some sense out of him.
"The evidence is clearly right here and everyone can see it." Yunho calmly said as he started to walk back and forth, acting as if he's some detective solving a murder case.
"Alright prove it! Where is it? Where is your evidence?"
"It is in your eyes Jae. You stole the stars and put them in your eyes."The studio was filled with laughter afterwards. Laughter of Yoochun, the staff and even the two policemen who wasted their precious time for this. Almost all of them found the act of Yunho very epic and 'cute'. Almost all, except for the guy that is getting angrier by the minute.
“You went all through that trouble just to make a pick up line? That’s genius Yunho!” Yoochun said but stopped chuckling when he earned a glare from the now very annoyed Jaejoong.
“Why are you doing this? Did I do something so horrible to you?! Well if I did, I’m sorry! You can stop making fun of me okay?!”
∞
Yunho knocked at Jae’s dressing room to apologize. He knows he didn't do anything wrong but Jae’s misunderstanding of his good intentions broke his heart.
He entered when he found the door unlocked and saw Jaejoong lying on the sofa, his face buried on a pillow.
“I’m sorry Jae, but you’ve misunderstood me, I did all that because…”
“Because what? I humiliated you? It’s not worst than what you did to me a few years ago Jung, you literally broke my heart.”
“That too, I’m sorry about that, I didn’t mean to say it, it’s just that…”
“It’s just that you’re really disgusted with me so you can’t help but say it.”
“I’m starting to get pissed right now, if you finish any more of my sentence…” he stopped as he heard a muffled sob.
“I was very happy you know. When I found out that I will have my debut movie with you I thought I would die of happiness. You were my idol and I really looked forward to spending time with you.”
Yunho removed the pillow from Jaejoong’s face despite his protests. He wiped the tears on his eyes with his thumb and kissed his forehead.
“I was a big jerk back then Jae, I know that. I didn’t mean it when I said that word, it’s just that I hated the fact that I was gawking at your loveliness at our first meeting so it just kinda slipped. I don’t know what’s wrong with me but I changed now because I want to be with you. I like you Jae and I want to know you better. I couldn’t stop thinking about you and I was very happy when Yoochun told me that we have this photoshoot together. That’s when I decided that I should court you and make you mine.”
Jaejoong was speechless. All this time he thought Yunho hated him. And for him to confess like that, Jae doesn’t know how to react but he can feel the heat in his face and he knows that he’s very red right now. He was about to cover his face with his hand when Yunho grabbed and linked their hands together.
“I really really like you. It’s too early to say but I think I might be inlove with you. Will you be my boyfriend Kim Jaejoong?”
Jaejoong just smiled and hugged his new boyfriend. They stayed like that for minutes when Yunho broke the silence.
“Jae, do you want to make a bet?”
Jaejoong giggled and nodded his head. He’s too overwhelmed to talk right now.
“I bet you for five dollars that I can kiss you without touching your lips.”
“That’s impossible!” Jaejoong laughed as he lightly hit Yunho’s shoulders.
And then Yunho kissed him on the lips. First gentle, then it became more aggressive and passionate as Yunho shoved his tongue on Jaejoong’s mouth. They parted after the need for air arises and Jaejoong shivered as Yunho looked at him with longing and desire.
“You said without touching my lips!”
“The five dollar is in your back pocket, baby.”
Yunho winked and ran out of the room. Jaejoong chuckled as he stood up to chase his silly but adorable boyfriend.
