Whee! I went from Super Junior, to SHINee! Yep, this is not an anime fanfiction, neither is it a Super Junior one. It's a SHINee one! With a few people from other bands thrown in I guess. I'm not going to reveal the pairings, because I want to keep anyone reading this guessing. Believe it or not, this is the first fic that I actually planned out. Well, okay, not really everything. but I do know what is going to happen in which chapter. ;D I spent like, a week, planning this chapter. Okay, enough of my blabbering. Onto the story!
Disclaimer: Nothing is owned. Sadly.
P.S. This is a prologue, not chapter one. It's just to get you, yes you, into the storyline a little. Enjoy!
Jinki smiled. Kibum smiled back as he laced their long, slender fingers together. Kibum didn't know when he had started harbouring feelings for the other boy, but he didn't regret it. He shivered as Jinki's lips found his. Even after they pulled away, Jinki did not stop, continuing to plant butterfly kisses all over his face.
Kibum laughed a little.
"Jinki hyung, I think we should go before the gates close."
Jinki looked up at Kibum cutely, tilting his head to the side as if he hadn't known that they were currently kissing on the school rooftop. After a few seconds though, Jinki's usual wide grin returned to his face.
"Stop smiling like that. You look like an idiot," Kibum scolded, but he was smiling as well.
Jinki laughed.
"I'll walk you home okay?" he offered.
Kibum nodded, grabbing Jinki's arm and running ahead.
Suddenly, Jinki's phone rang. Jinki pouted at Kibum, who motioned for him to pick up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Son, it's me."
"Father? Do you need something?"
"Jinki, come home immediately. I have something important to tell you."
"But I –"
"No 'buts' Jinki. Now."
The line went dead.
"What did he say?" Kibum asked, playing with a lock of hair that flopped over his hazel-coloured eyes.
Jinki sighed noisily.
"My father wants me back at the mansion."
"Go then."
Jinki made a weird whining sound.
"But I wanted to walk you home!"
Kibum laughed and kissed Jinki.
"I'll be fine. Hey look, it's Jonghyun."
Sure enough, Kibum's best friend Jonghyun walked around the corner. Jinki waved him over.
"Hey Jonghyun, I need to rush back home right now, so I can't see Kibum home. Could you do that for me?"
Jonghyun's eyes never left Kibum.
"Sure, no problem."
"Thanks Jjong, I owe you one!"
And with that, Jinki ran off.
Jinki violently pulled the door open and two pairs of eyes turned to face him. He blushed when he realized that one of them belonged to a girl. A very pretty girl, if he might add.
"You wanted to see me father?"
Mr Lee nodded.
"Yes Jinki. This is Miss Jessica Jung."
Jessica gave the still blushing boy a shy smile and bowed politely.
"She's your fiancée."
Jinki blinked. And then blinked again.
"My what?"
"Fiancée," Mr Lee repeated, as if it was the most normal thing in the world, "Your grandfather wanted you, his oldest grandson, to be wed to the oldest granddaughter of the Jung family."
"Okay…"
"Anyway, you're moving your studies to California."
"What? Father!"
"Miss Jung's family is there. Jinki, please be a gentleman. She will, after all, become your wife one day. Now, I have to return to work. Miss Jung will be staying here for the night. Take care of her. Your flight leaves tomorrow morning."
Jinki gaped. Jessica walked over to him.
"Excuse me, Mr Lee? You don't really have to do anything; I can take care of myself."
"It's okay Miss Jung. I'm so sorry, but I need to talk to somebody right now. I'll be back in about half an hour okay?"
Jessica nodded.
Jinki took his coat and Jessica held the door open for him.
"It's Jinki, by the way."
Jessica smiled.
"Jessica!" She replied to Jinki's back.
Jinki mentally rehearsed his speech in his head. Oh gosh, he was dead. How could he tell Kibum that he was moving to the US without getting smacked in the head by the temperamental boy? Finally, Jinki decided on buying flowers and hiding a note inside them.
He skidded to a stop in front of Kibum's house, flowers in hand. He was about to walk up the path when suddenly, his hand numbed and he dropped the bouquet of roses. Standing on the porch was Jonghyun and Kibum. Jonghyun had his arms around Kibum's slender waist while Kibum pulled desperately at Jonghyun's hair, kissing.
Jinki winced at the sound of his heart breaking. He looked down at the roses he had dropped and gingerly picked them up. Pulling out a pen from his breast pocket, he added something to his original message before placing them by the side of the path and running back home.
By the time he arrived back, his face was stained with tears.
"Jessica," he called out when he saw her thin figure standing in the doorway, waiting for him.
"Jessica!" He called out again, with more force.
Another sob escaped Jinki's mouth and all his strength suddenly left his body. He tried to run towards Jessica, who was looking at him warmly. With love. But he couldn't do it. His knees buckled. Jessica ran. Jinki chuckled a little as the world began to spin.
When everything finally stopped spinning, Jinki found himself lying on Jessica's lap. She cradled his head gently.
"Jessica," he whispered.
"Jinki, what's wrong? Tell me what hurts."
"My heart."
Wordlessly, Jessica bent down and kissed away Jinki's tears one by one. With every kiss, Jessica experienced Jinki's heartbreak. No words were exchanged, but she knew exactly what had happened. No words were needed. Without warning, Jinki pulled Jessica to him. "Thank you," he murmured in her hair. His lips traveled from her hair, to her ears, to her forehead, to her nose. And finally, to her lips. Their first kiss. Maybe, Kibum wasn't meant for me, Jinki concludes as he wound his arms tighter around Jessica's body. She snuggled warmly against Jinki's chest. Jinki placed one last kiss on Jessica's forehead.
And the couple fell asleep under the stars.
