FLASHBACK
As Jaejoong laced his fingers with Sooyoung’s, she couldn’t help but giggle and squeeze his hand. The couple strolled in the park with no worries ahead, just them and the beautiful sky painted above them. The cold winter breeze oozed, their hairs pricking their flawless white skin. Jaejoong notice Sooyoung to shiver, he immediately took off his jacket wrapping it around her. She smiled in gratitude as they sat on a nearby bench. “Soo, we should go home. It’s getting late.”
She titled her head and pouted, “I don’t want to, please. I want to spend more time with you oppa.”
Jaejoong ruffled her hair and pinched her cheeks. “How can I resist that pout of yours? Fine, I’ll call Taeyeon, you’re going to stay at my dorm for the night kay?”
If Jaejoong thought that would be some sort of threat to Sooyoung, then hell was he wrong. He laughed at her reaction. Jaejoong slowly reached for her hand, as his other hand caressed her face. “I love you.”
“Why the sudden cheesiness oppa?”, Sooyoung blinked at his sudden action.
Jaejoong rolled his eyes, “I’m expecting an ‘I love you’ back.” He tightened his grip on her hand, “But seriously Soo, I think you’ve blinded me. All I see and think is you, Choi Sooyoung.” (I always will see and think of you Soo)
Albeit confused with his odd, unusual behaviour, Sooyoung went along with the flow capturing his lips with hers. The kiss deepened and how much they love each other was clearly shown by how ardent the kiss was. “What have you done to me Soo?”
“I’ve love blinded you, Kim Jaejoong and vice versa. You’ve love blinded me as well”, Sooyoung smirked. “I love you...so much.” (Hope you’ll love me after I reveal the news to you Soo)
END OF FLASHBACK
Rushing to the SNSD dressing room, Sooyoung collided with a warm body. She snapped up and a freezing chill ran through her spine. She stood frozen as the person she collided with earlier had the same reaction as hers. “Hey...”
“What are you doing here?”, Sooyoung hissed at Jaejoong, her eyes were on dangerous slits. Before he could even reply, Sooyoung asked him the question once again. “What are you doing here?!”
“JYJ’s here for the show as well”, he rubbed the back of his head. “Look Soo...can we talk?”
“Not now”, she walked past him and continued walking for SNSD’s dressing room.
When all artists were on stage, the staff gave the signal for the show to air. SNSD and JYJ were the special guests for the show and as expected, fans were excited to watch their idols being on the same show after a long time of separation. Being SNSD’s Japanese spokesperson, the MC asked Sooyoung a question that caused her tongue to click stiff.
“How do you girls feel after seeing JYJ after about nearly 2 years?”
Despite for Sooyoung being unwilling to answer the question, she answered the MC nonetheless. “We feel so honoured on seeing them again being happy after the whole issue. The girls miss them three very much; it’s been such a long time after not seeing each other. I myself miss Junsu and Yoochun oppa a lot.” and the other member beside Junsu oppa. She tried her best to not make her voice crack, and even managed to smile at Junsu and Yoochun, completely avoiding the person sitting beside Junsu.
The MC seemed to be shocked by the incomplete naming of the JYJ members Sooyoung spat, “What about Jaejoong?”
And in return, Sooyoung didn’t know what to answer. She let out a small laugh and smiled, “N-next question please.”
Little did she know, Jaejoong was already breaking inside, tearing apart. Thanking his poker face and Yoochun covering him up, Jaejoong managed to hold back the tears that wanted to be shed.
“Moving on”, the MC sounded uncertain. “Well what about JYJ? I bet you all have missed these 9 beautiful girls.”
Letting out his always famous dolphin laugh, Junsu answered. “Yes we have. We miss them so much and seeing how successful they’ve become is really amazing. We’re all so proud of them.”
Jaejoong had the urge to add up something but soon held it back. Unfortunately for him, the MC saw him and insisted Jaejoong to let out what he wanted to say. “Anything to add Jaejoong?”
“I..I..”, he stuttered and mentally cursed at himself. He cleared his throat as his eyes fell on a certain tall brunette SNSD member. “I just want to add that, it’s nice seeing the nine of them again after the whole obstacle. It’s great seeing them strong and how beautiful they’ve become. But...”
“But what?”, the MC was in full interest and so were the people inside the studio. The JYJ members and the SNSD members, including Sooyoung herself were all eyes on him. Even though Jaejoong still hasn’t finished his sentence, Sooyoung could already feel herself trembling.
“I miss them so much, and I know they know that. But I miss this certain member of SNSD very much. I just want her to know that it’s still the same. The feeling, it never changed, it never stopped and it never will. I know she stopped and I don’t blame her but I want her to know that...”, his voice soon cracked. Sooyoung managed to keep her face straight despite her eyes fogging with tears.
“...I haven’t stopped loving her.” Jaejoong let out a shaky sigh. Yoochun rubbed Jaejoong’s back as he shot them all a small smile. “I-I’m sorry for being emotional.”
“It’s okay Jaejoong. It’s good that you let it all out. And by observing by the way you said it, you clearly still do love this member.” The MC commented. “But care to share who this very member is?”
Jaejoong shook his head as he gazed on Sooyoung. “It’s safer to keep it to ourselves.” If he thought the MC didn’t notice where his eyes fell on, then he was wrong.
“Well, we’ll be back for more so please stay tuned!”, the MC smiled at the video camera in front of them and rushed out of the stage.
Once the air sign was off, Jaejoong shed all the tears he’s been holding back. Yoona, Taeyeon, Junsu and Yoochun all walked up to him and comforted the sobbing Jaejoong. Sooyoung stayed on her seat as the tears slowly cascaded down her cheeks. She was trembling inside, there’s no doubt. After a while, Sooyoung got the strength to stand up and made her way towards Jaejoong. Every single person in the studio was shocked by her actions, they all watched her.
Jaejoong looked up at her with a somewhat confused look. He stayed silent since he knew that’s the safest thing he could do before blurting out in mercy which could lead for her to hate him even more. They stared at each other and it seemed like they were communicating just by looking at each other’s eyes. Tears started to roll down their cheeks and Jaejoong bent his head down. Seeing Sooyoung cry was far more than a punishment, she had the exact same reaction as to when he told her about Junsu, Yoochun and him leaving DBSK. He soon got startled when a hot red hand collided with his cheek leaving a mark on it. Despite the stinging feel, he looked up at her in disbelief but then again, he knew he deserved it. Sooyoung let out a shaky sigh, tears were uncontrollably rolling down her cheeks as she walked past him.
A knock from SNSD’s dressing room boomed the room and Sooyoung immediately wiped her tears and opened the door. Once she saw who the person was, she slammed the door on the person’s face. Catching the door in time before it closes, Jaejoong walked inside the room.
“Hear me out. Please.” Jaejoong entered the room as he closed the door behind him. Sooyoung stayed silent, she avoided his presence as she went back to the seat she was sitting on.
He ran a hand through his hair as he walked closer to her and grabbed her shoulders when their faces were only inches away from each other, both tear-stained. “I still love you Soo.”
Sooyoung shoved his hands, “But I don’t love you”
Though her response was short, it sure was a million times attack back. “You can’t hate me forever.”
“But I try to.”
“Remember when you said we were both love-blinded over each other?”, he stared into her eyes. “I still am.”
“Yes I’m blind”, Sooyoung’s voice softened as another batch of tears cascaded down her cheeks even more. “Cause to me, I don’t see any Kim Jaejoong anymore.”
