Kyuhyun/Gyuri
Isee you and I'm ready to make my move
But I'm scared and I know that you've got better things to do
Kyuhyun pushes up his glasses and steals a glance at the girl in front of him. The girl looked like she was in so much pain, Kyuhyun clears his throat and asks her if she was alright. She gives him a shy smile and run her hand through her glossy brown hair and bites her lower lip ( which Kyuhyun found very, very, very attractive)
"Oh, I'm fine." Gyuri replies, trying to look convincing when she was suffering a massive headache from the math textbook she was reading.
"Are you sure? Because I can explain it to you again, if you'd like. I am your tutor anyway." Kyuhyun insists but Gyuri waves him off like the hallyu korean actress that she is.
"No, it's fine. I'll just read it again." Kyuhyun backs down and goes back to reading his comic book. Occasionally, he steals a glance or two, not because he's worried ( well, he is, surprisingly). Usually, Kyuhyun never really cared a lot about the people he tutors especially if it's an airhead actress.
He checks the clock and sees that it's already 1PM, he looks at Gyuri who slams the book with her hands and lets out a huff. She looks up to see Kyuhyun raising his eyebrows at her, clearly shocked. She gives him a smile before slowly close the book.
"Umm, can we continue this another time? I have an appointment and I'm going to be late." She apologizes; Kyuhyun just gives her a nod. Gyuri packs up in a hurry before standing up and scanning the library. Kyuhyun doesn't bother to ask and prepares for his own tutor session (What? Even Math geeks can suck in history) . He watches Gyuri walking up to the exit (probably late for photo shoot or a CF filming, she had better things to do than study math) but instead she turns right and goes to the librarian's desk.
'Is she that much of an airhead that she can't find the exit? It's a good thing she's pretty, if she weren't - ' Kyuhyun couldn't finish what he was thinking when he heard words that he thought that would never come out of Gyuri's mouth.
"Excuse me, I'm here to tutor a student about Korean history, has he arrived?" With his mouth agape, he watches the librarian point at Kyuhyun and Gyuri following her direction. She sees him and gives him a shocked expression. She walks back to their table, with a big (gorgeous) smile on her face and sits back on her seat and takes out her history books.
"Not so much of an airhead now, am I?" She says before giving him a smirk and lifts his jaw to closes his gaping mouth with her soft hands.
From then on, Kyuhyun has never judged a book by its cover and aced all of his history exams.

Heechul/Jessica
Don’t take another step, don’t breathe another breathe
Unless you’re coming back to me
“Oh shit, I’m late.” Jessica curses and puts more speed on her pace. She walks and walks. She curses the idea of getting out of the car and walk to the site, she couldn’t go back because she’d waste too much time.
She walks faster and faster.
Jessica wants to see him; she wants to see him so badly. She waited two years, two painful and lonely years. She wasn’t even there to bid him goodbye, wasn’t even able to call him and tell him that she loved him. Her hands form into fists as she feels a stinging in her eye and her impatience getting the best of her.
Jung Sooyeon runs, for the first time in her life, she runs.
She decides that she doesn’t care if anyone sees ‘Jung Jessica, the ice princess of Girls’ Generation’ run, shocking every fan out there. Because she didn’t come as Jung Jessica, she came as Jung Sooyeon.
And Jung Sooyeon just wanted to greet and congratulate Kim Heechul for complete his mandatory military service, despite his past leg injury.
She runs and runs faster.
She runs even faster at the thought that she might have missed him already.
“Damn! Dammit, Jung Sooyeon! ” Jessica curses out loud and continues to run. Finally, she sees the entrance of the site in view, she runs even faster. Finally, she arrives at the entrance and bends down to catch her breath with her hands on her knees.
After recovering, Jessica looks up and realizes that there was no one around. She lets out a frustrated sigh and runs her hand through her hand (a habit she adapted from him). She feels tears starting to form and a familiar tightness in her throat.
“YAH, JUNG SOOYEON!” Jessica freezes for a moment and then wipes the forming tears from her eyes and turns around.
And there he was, wearing camouflage, sporting a buzz cut and holding his bag over his shoulder. He looked irritated, but the twinkle in his eyes and the smile that was slowly creeping up was telling her that he wanted to see her too.
Both of them slowly walked towards each other, until they were inches away from each other.
“Hey.” Jessica greets softly, almost a whisper. Heechul finally smiles and drops his bag to the ground.
“Yo.” Heechul replies, his hand suddenly holding Jessica’s.
“Welcome back, Pabo.” Jessica greets, tears of joy flowing down. Heechul instinvely wipes them away and wraps her around in a tight and long embrace.
“I missed you, Sooyeon ah.” He feels her nod and returns his embrace; he hugs her even tighter and hear her soft sobs.
“Don’t ever leave me again.” She orders him as soon as he lets go of her.
“As long as you stand by me, I won’t go anywhere.” He replies and holds her hands and his bag in the other. They walk back to Jessica’s car which was parked away, hand in hand and hearts contented.
“I can’t believe you left car and ran all the way here. Are you really a pabo?
“Shut up and keep walking.”

Taemin/Krystal
If I could take your heart and keep it close to me
I swear it will not break, I swear it will not bleed
“Soojung ah…”
Silence.
“Soojung ah…”
Sniffles.
“Soojung ah…”
Tears.
“Sooju-“ The said girl turns around in her seat beside him and give him a tight hug (but not tight enough to hurt him).
“I hate you, Lee Taemin. I hate you so much. I hate you. I hate you.” Taemin hugs her as tight he can (but Soojung feels just a soft squeeze).
“I know, I’m sorry .” He hears her sobs; he puts her down and unwraps her from his embrace. He feels her tears soaking his hospital gown.
“If you are, then don’t go through with it.” Taemin sighs and kisses her forehead and leans his against hers.
“You know, this can give me a chance to survive from this.”
“But what if-“
“But nothing, Jung Soojung.” He says in a stern voice, Soojung frowns and moves away from him.
“You know, that I have to do this.” Soojung shakes her head.
“But what if you don’t make it? What if I lose my best friend earlier than I should? Taemin ah..” Soojung pleads but Taemin stands his ground (sits on his hospital bed).
“We both know that I’m not a best friend to you, Soojung.” Soojung’s face turns into a shade of pink (which he found adorable that he pinches her cheek).
“You don’t have to say it, Soojung. I love you too.” Taemin says before giving the younger girl a soft kiss on the lips. He pulls away before Soojung could even process what had just happen. He ruffles her hair and smiles.
“I just don’t want to lose you.” Soojung argues and he chuckles in response.
“And won’t, I promise.”
“Lee Taemin-sshi, it’s time for you to be prep for surgery.” A nurse says after knocking on the door and before coming in. Soojung gives Taemin, a scared look while he just gives her a soft smile.
“Everything will be fine.” He assures her; all the young girl could do was nods. Soon after, Soojung finds herself outside the operating room, watching the hallway’s clock tick away.
“Everything will be fine…” She whispers. She hears the doors open and in an instant, she was on her feet waiting for the surgeon’s report. The surgeon slowly takes off his mask, his face not showing emotion; Jung Soojung feels the blood drain out from her face.
But suddenly, she sees the surgeon smile and feels a small pat on her shoulder. No words were needed to be said, Soojung feels tears drop from her eyes and covers her mouth with her hands, relief and happiness washing over her.
And everything is fine…

Will you just hold be tight and never let me go?
I know this whole thing is wrong,
But baby, we’re invincible
Author’s Note: I have always been fascinated with Kyuhyun/Gyuri pairing since their interaction in Sukira and wanted to try writing them out (because I think they’re very fascinating together) . I also feel very sad about Heechul leaving for the army (but instead of writing about how he finished his public service, I wrote how he trained in the army because he wanted too despite his leg injury.) so I wrote about his return with Sica waiting for him and a little Taestal added too. :) Comments are very much loved and thanks for reading. ♥
