Hours went by as Ga Eul rested. So Yi Jeong was getting really impatient to when he could see her as the doctor told him and the others that they could not see her until he approved the country bumpkin was all right and ready to have visits. The angry mood of So Yi Jeong was always present as his friends would try to clear his mind with some jokes or games, but nothing was working.
The memories of having to see Ga Eul getting hurt were back, and this time he knew the right decision; tell her how he feels. Wrong he was when he thought being far away from her was going to make him feel better and secure that she wouldn't get her heart broken or suffer, but after watching all this series of unfortunate events, destiny was telling him he had to do the opposite; stay by her side and follow what he feels this time.
The most beautiful words that came out of her mouth were the ones he remembered back at the pool, where she told him how nobody has ever touched those lips of her. Nobody of the F4 noticed he was smiling all by himself by this thought. Since that moment, he felt egoistic as he didn't want anyone but him to be the first and last one to ever kiss her. Dreaming about it was usual in the nights, but turning it into something real seem impossible because of his fault of rejecting her. For now, the only thing that mattered to him was to see her, caressed and feel her by his side.
Opening her eyes she saw all blurry, but after carefully rubbing them, she could clearly see where she was at. The room was all painted white, a beeping sound came out of a machine to check her heart beats, and a solid and cold bed where she was laying on. Nobody was in the room and was beginning to feel abandoned by her friends. Trying to sat down she couldn't as her stomach was hurting her, and moving some other part of her body was painful as she had previously received in the day lots of hits.
A red button was on the right side of her bed and she could see it was to be use to call a nurse. Pressing it, she waited for someone to come in. Her impatience began to grow as minutes passed and no human being came. The button was repeatedly pressed until finally someone came.
A man in a white coat entered the room and smiled to her. "How are you feeling, Miss Chu?" he asked and stood beside the bed.
"Much better" she only said, confused of why she was there by herself, alone with nobody.
The doctor gave her a last check. "You're friends have been waiting outside for hours, I think is time you should see them" he gently smiled and patted her arm.
Ga Eul only nodded and saw how the doctor slowly walked out of the room without saying anything else. After a few short seconds, the doorknob she heard, trying to be turned. Then, someone opened it and the door flew opened. Now in sight, Geum Jan Di was fighting and pushing Woo Bin to be get to her first, but the Don Juan kept doing the same to her. When Jan Di was about to push him, he stepped back and this made her lose her balance and went straight to the floor. "I always win" he triumphantly smile and began to walk to Ga Eul's direction when Jan Di grabbed his ankle and pulled him. This made him fall to the floor before getting almost to the patient.
"What did you said?" her face showed a victorious gaze and smile while she got up.
The other two F4 entered after them and saw Woo Bin still at the floor. "Yah! Why you have to act so childish!" Gu Jun Pyo exclaimed very annoyed.
"Oh! Now the pot is calling the kettle black" she said offended and was about to walk to him, raising a fist in the air. Gu Jun Pyo seeing this, he hide behind Ji Hoo scared.
"I thought you wanted to see me" Ga Eul said chuckling and this made Geum Jan Di stop and turn around, noticing her friend was waiting for them to finish.
The Don Juan after getting up, he stood beside her and smiled. "How are you feeling?" Woo Bin asked happy.
"Much better now that you are here" she referred to all of them. She glanced at her best friend who went to the other side of the bed, and smile to her answer.
"How is Yi Jeong?" she, without hesitating, asked.
Everyone smiled to this, even Jan Di, when they remembered how the Casanova would asked for her immediately. It was almost like if they were connected to each other. Ga Eul did not understood their mood and kept staring confused.
"He's fine" Ji Hoo told her still showing his teeth.
"I would say preoccupied" Woo Bin said and this draw her attention.
"Why?" she asked a bit confused, not knowing.
At that exact moment, the presence of another human being peeked carefully at the door. Geum Jan Di noticed and stared at him, who slowly was entering. Woo Bin and the others noticed too and smirked.
"We will let him explain to you why" the Don Juan blinked at her and touched her arm tenderly before walking away to leave them alone.
The others followed along and Ji Hoo closed the door, leaving the two soulmates alone.
The paces of his feet were slow as he was thinking what he should say before getting to her side. A little smile came across her face as she saw how Yi Jeong was physically good. Being there with him made her feel secure and happy, but at the same time nervous. Once again, she tried to sat down to be at his height, but her stomach still hurt her and she groan as she tried to make an effort to sit.
Yi Jeong quickly stop her by her shoulder, and saw how she pressed the part of her stomach that got hurt. He touched her hand that was placed on her stomach, preoccupied. Gently, he pushed her back so she could lay on the bed. Ga Eul blushed by this and lay again. At this point, his face was close to her as his hand was still on her shoulder and his other on her stomach. The tension grew as he was inches away from her face. Glancing at her lips, he saw how pink they were and how sweet it had to taste. He remembered how in many occasions this happened in his dreams, feeling one of her untouched part of her body.
Ga Eul's nervousness was getting used to this position with him now. Preparing mentally she was as how closed he was getting to her. Wanting her first kiss to be special didn't meant to be at a right place but with the right person, and she certainly knew it was him. Yi Jeong was slowly closing space between them, his lips almost reaching hers.
Right then, the door opened. "I forgot my jacket" Woo Bin said and noticed he came at the wrong time.
Yi Jeong turned to see who was the moron who interrupted their moment while Ga Eul seem embarrassed that someone saw what they were going to do.
Woo Bin chuckled very nervous as he saw the death glare that was shooting his best friend to him. Without caring no more for his jacket, he swiftly closed the door before the Casanova could kill him. Don Juan definitely destroyed the moment, and the two of them were now ashamed to start were they had left. Yi Jeong was certain he would take revenge later on him, he had to pay for this. It was his fault he couldn't accomplished what a long time he had wished for, and he seem unnable to do it now as the tension wasn't the same.
Yi Jeong gulped nervous as he didn't know what to do or say, he just looked to the ceiling. Ga Eul noticed this and smile.
"Woo Bin sunbae told me you were preoccupied, why?" she waited for him to glance down at her, and respond her question.
The Casanova was caught with this kind of question. Minutes ago he was sure he would tell her everything he felt for her, but now it seem he was having doubts as the nervousness and pride was getting through all his body. Easy was to imagine it, but doing it was very different. Your imagination was just something you could say and expect what you want, but in reality, a second person outside your body was involved; feelings, emotions, everything.
Smiling at her awkwardly was all he could do now, and she was getting confused by this. It was hard for him to share with her his feelings, but he needed to do it.
His gaze turned serious "Because of you I was preoccupied, Ga Eul" he was finally being sincere and he liked it.
A blush appeared on her cheeks, and this seem cute to him. "Why?" she asked again, and his eyes stared into space looking for the right words to say.
"Because they hurted you" he looked into her eyes, and she could see he was telling the truth.
"So Yi Jeong...but you don't care about me" she dared to say and looked away from him, hurt by her own words.
"Then, you are wrong" he glanced to the wall, looking still for the right words. Fighting against his pride.
"Back there" he paused and searched through words "I wasn't scared for me, but for you and your life. I was afraid, terrified that they could do something to you. Find you and protect you was all it mattered at that time" he sighed, looking back at the past.
Ga Eul looked at him and his worried expression. She could not believe she was hearing this from the cold-blooded Casanova.
"But I failed" he finally said and looked sad to the floor, almost about to cry.
Unexpectedly, she grabbed his hand and this made him look at her. A small smile was seen on her face as she glanced at him with a proud glare.
"Good, because if you failed then that means I didn't fail to you" her smile and words confused him and made him feel more sad when she admitted the words that he failed, but the last part he couldn't comprehend.
Noticing this, she kept explaining "My goal was the same as yours, and I feel happy I could accomplish it. I wouldn't mind to do it again if is to save your life" amazingly was to hear her words as she would never speak her heart like this, but only love could do the impossible.
A smirk appeared on his face as he now knew what she was talking about, what she meant. Remembering how she threw herself over his body to protect him was somehow making him feel more in love with her. Thinking nobody would do that for him was now a mistake as Ga Eul herself demonstrated the opposite of his words.
"Ga Eul..." he was preparing himself to tell her how he feels.
Before the Casanova could keep speaking, she interrupted him "I know, you would never have feelings for me" she said very sad.
"...I want to be with you" he wanted to be straight. Fearing of her rejection he was as she looked at him with wide eyes, in disbelief.
"So Yi Jeong sunbae..." shock was written all on her face. Unnable to believe this moment she was as she thought this was all a dream, that maybe she hasn't woken up. Pinching herself on the arm, could see that this was more than real.
"What do you say?" he stared at her with hopeful eyes, grabbing her hand.
" I..." before answering, the Casanova slowly approached his lips to her forehead and kissed her. It was so sweet the moment that he didn't want it to end. Feeling her skin was more than sufficient, even when his lips desired more to kiss another part of her. Ga Eul closed her eyes and enjoy the moment, even when it was short, it felt like it lasted long enough to clear each one's feeling.
"Pardon if I interrupt" the doctor introduced himself as he had opened the door but the young couple didn't even noticed his presence since they were enjoying what was now once again interrupted. It seem like everyone would not have manners and forgot to knock the door. They sure had to know they were having a moment, and a beautiful one, but no one apparently respect that.
Ga Eul blushed of embarrasment while Yi Jeong cursed in his mind. He was feeling frustrated as she never gave him a response, and now that someone else was in the room, the answer needed to wait.
"As I can see you're here" he referred to the Casanova. "I would like to say you are good to go" he smirked at the boy and he returned it back, but then he glanced at Ga Eul hoping that that meant she could go too. "As for the young women, you will have to stay here until tomorrow just to check your wounds heal correctly" her face saddened by this and Yi Jeong grabbed her hand more tightly.
When the doctor finally left, she sighed and looked at him preoccupied. "What I am going to say to my parents?" her worries about her father and mother getting freaked out of how her daughter was kidnapped and in danger was making her think of what to say. She couldn't lie, she wasn't like that. If she told them she was at the hospital, they were sure to find out what happened.
"I will take care of that" the Casanova blinked at her and told her he was going to make a call outside.
After being alone for just a minutes, someone came in. It was Woo Bin with some flowers. His face seem shy and embarrassed as he has never done this before for anyone. Touching the back of his head and looking to another direction awkwardly, he handed her the flowers.
"This is from So Yi Jeong" he lied and gave a nervous smile.
"Thank you, Woo Bin sunbae" Ga Eul knew it couldn't be from the Casanova as he had left just minutes before. Smiling, she knew the Don Juan just wanted to keep his pride where it was and not mention it was because he thought about her when he saw them right at the entrance of the hospital.
"You caught me" he sighed and she chuckled while smelling the sweet sunflowers.
"Don't tell So Yi Jeong" he begged her and she happily nodded. "He would kill me and mostly when I interrupted your moment" he gave a you-know-what blink, and her cheeks turned red.
It was obvious he would get jealous if he saw the Don Juan bringing his girl flowers, even if he didn't feel any attraction for her, he was grateful and admire what Ga Eul did for his friend. She was more than honor to be the F4's friend now. Everything was absolutely going to change in her life and at school. The country bumpkin won the respect from them, and now it was time for the F4 to return her the favor.
"I shall leave now, I have business" even though he was telling the truth, he wanted to get out of there as he knew So Yi Jeong could come at any second and kill him right there. Ga Eul only nodded and saw how he slowly closed the door waving goodbye. The promise of coming back tomorrow morning he make, and she was convinced he would keep his promise.
It was unbelievable to realize how weeks ago she hated them and now they were becoming important in her life. A slight chuckle came out of her mouth as she remembered the first time she interacted phisically with Woo Bin, when she hide behind him so the ball didn't hit her but instead him. Since that time, she discovered now that he was always there to protect her like a brother. It was nice to see how someone cared about her and that she could trust him whenever she needed to open her heart or cry. A good friend was the best description for him.
The Don Juan was right, the Casanova was in a matter of seconds back at the room. "Geum Jan Di called your parents and told them you were staying at her house" he smiled and was happy that he could help her.
Ga Eul felt relief now that she didn't have to lie personally to her parents or confront them for what happened. Leaving them worried was just another headache. Thanks to Yi Jeong all of this no one would ever know. Impressed she was too because no press or paparazzi caught any of this moments, or the news would've had a juicy gossip to tell about.
"Ga Eul" he called her name to take her attention since he could see she was deep in her thoughts. "I'm staying here the night with you" Yi Jeong said and grabbed her hand, happy.
Secure her sake was his primary importance. Being by her side was another reason to stay, sleeping and feeling her right there he desired more than anything.
The night was cold and even more in a hospital. It was going to be long for Yi Jeong as this was his first time sleeping on a uncomfortable chair, but his reward was worthy; being with the country bumpkin.
The medicine that the nurse gave to her made her fall asleep very quick and soon. Watching how she slept was cute, he thought. The most beautiful thing he has ever seen. Even when sometimes the temptation of kissing her appear on his mind and his body was yearning for it, he would always refused and fight against him as he thought that would be wrong. It felt like he would take away something valuable from her, her lip's virginity. Being egoistic was one of his defects with her, but this time, he just wanted her to take the decision and not ruin her special and unique moment she has reserved for all this years.
Freezing inside the room, he decided it was best to go outside for a short moment and enter some heat to his body. Ga Eul was going to be alright since she was sleeping and she would not notice he left for a minutes. After getting out of there, he felt relief that everything was going fine. Not caring if he woke up with bags under his eyes or that his body would feel pain from being seated there all night, it was more important being there for his love one. After that, he saw the opportunity to go get some coffee at a near shop and by that he would have taken his time to heat.
Ga Eul was deep in her sleep, it was hardly possible to wake her up. The sound of the door slowly opened but closed quickly. The person stand there, watching from far how the country bumpkin was deep asleep. Steps took and came close to her body. It seem like he had been waiting for this time, it wasn't coincidence that right after the Casanova left he had wanted to enter. It was clearly evident he remain hidden until everyone was gone.
Touching her face, he lovingly looked at her. A tear rolled down his cheek and landed on her forehead. Incredibly, she sensed this and slowly opened her eyes. All she could behold was one men lamenting in tears. Her eyes grew big as she could see who it was.
"Yong Sook!" she exclaimed startled with his appearance. Her pupils searched the room for someone else but no one was there, only him.
"Where's So Yi Jeong?" she demanded to know as she thought he did something to him.
"He went outside" he sighed and looked directly into her eyes with pain.
"What are you doing here?" her voice sounded a little bit angry. The red button was prepared to be pressed if he intended to do something this time.
"I came here to see how you were doing" he was telling the truth. A sigh came out of his mouth and turned to see the view that was outside the window. "and to apologize" he rubbed the back of his neck, reminding himself what he did to her.
"I was stupid and ignorant to think that my brother was telling the truth. Anyhow, vengeance was never something I did, but when I saw how my family was suffering, I decided it was time for payback" through every words he lamented the pain of his family and how he was fooled by his own brother.
"Even when my goal was to only use you at first, my thoughts changed" he turned around and looked at her serious so she could acknowledge he wasn't lying at all or that this was another trick of him. "You have the power to change someone, and luckily I could experiment it" he smiled and glanced to the floor. Yong Sook knew he had to rush since the Casanova could get there in any time.
"I know that even if you do accept my apology, nothing will be the same" he sadly exhaled before continuining "but I do promise you that I will be there when you need me" his hands wanted to touch hers but he knew it was not correct anymore. Knowing he couldn't feel her skin be right beside her was devastating for him. All this time he grew more close to her and now he himself tear apart that friendship.
Ga Eul just kept staring at him, not knowing what to say as he told her everything she thought about the situation. "I may have committed a crime against you and hurt you in the most painful way, but now I regret it because..." he daringly hold her hand "...I love you, Chu Ga Eul" he wanted her to remember those words, those feelings he was still holding for her. Her hand stood there, without moving. She knew he spoke the truth, and just the truth.
Without any more further to say, he left quietly the room, leaving a speechless Ga Eul. She wondered what she had to do, it was confusing to know what was the correct thing to do. The decision was clear as she remembered how he untied her and became close to her sincerely , and not because of his job. Accepting his apology was one step, but forgiving was another big step that she thought it could be easy in his case. A big heart he held and she knew that. Yong Sook wasn't bad.
Five minutes after the departure of Yong Sook, the door opened and it was Yi Jeong. Holding a cup of coffee, he noticed Ga Eul was awake and offered her the hot drink. Politely, she thank him for being thoughtful. While drinking sip by sip, he noted something wasn't right.
"How strange, those medicine were supposed to make you sleep until tomorrow" even though it was almost one in the morning, he was unmistakably right. She noticed his suspicious look, and gulped hard. Trying to not make eye contact, she drank her coffee more fast getting nervous.
"Did someone wake you up?" his interrogative voice was making her feel more anxious. A respond was not ready and she asked again what did he said. After he made the question again, she was surrounded. No lie was going to come out of her mouth because she didnt knew how to tell a falsehood.
Slowly she nodded and carefully realizing there was no turning back with her answer. The question of who was made and another gulp she gave.
"Just someone" she try to sound uninterested on the question but he kept insisting who.
"Please, don't get mad" she begged him with her two hands.
"Tell me now, Ga Eul" Yi Jeong was definitely not going to promise this as he knew he was going to get mad. Standing up from his seat, he looked at Ga Eul's eyes, serious.
She closed her eyes, not wanting to see his expression when she says it "Yong Sook" she spoke in a low tone.
"What was he doing here?" he exploded and demanded an answer grabbing Ga Eul by her shoulder, but she didn't dare to talk. "Did he do something to you?" he began to check her.
"No" she shook her head like a kid.
"I have to find that bastard" his determination was to search for him at the hospital and give him a piece of his mind. Ga Eul grabbed him by his hand "Don't go, please, stay with me" she requested him a favor and it was impossible to say no to her. Even when he was angry, he nodded and sigh, trying to let go of his fury. Sitting down, he tried to find a comfortable position while Ga Eul carefully looked at him. Then, she moved to one corner of her bed and watch him still fight with the seat. She thought about what she was going to do next, it sure was going to feel awkward but it was the right thing to do.
"So Yi Jeong sunbae..." he called him and he stopped and looked at her. Ga Eul only patted the bed, signaling him to lay down beside her.
Shocked, he pointed at himself asking if it was really him who she was telling this. Nodding with a smile on her face, he stood up from his seat and slowly positioned his body on the bed, beside the country bumpkin. He stood there, immobile. Ga Eul was feeling like him, but she was happy he could have a good night sleep. Both of them stared to the ceiling, not daring to turn to look at the other.
"Ga Eul, do you think we could go out someday?" he placed a hand under his head, still looking to the ceiling and thinking about what he asked her.
"Like a date?" she nervously asked.
"Yes, a date" he imagined how would it be to have a day all by themselves, having fun.
"I could check my agenda" she jokingly said and this made his head turned to see hers. She try not to laugh.
"What, do you have someone you're going on a date with?" he asked getting jealous about having to imagine some male being around her, spending time with her.
"Maybe" a small laugh came out of her mouth but he didn't noticed as he was getting way jealous.
"Who's the guy?" he asked getting serious.
Ga Eul couldn't contain it any longer and laugh. It was funny to see how he could sometimes be gullible and believe everything she says to him.
"With you, silly" she was still laughing and smiling, looking now to him.
His mouth fell open as he realized she was playing around with him and that she had called him silly.
"What did you call me again?" he turned his body to face her, preparing somehow his hands.
"Silly" she carefully said and looked at him with a playful look in her eyes while she laughed.
His hands touched her belly as he tickled her, this made her laugh harder. "Apologize for what you said" he advertised her or he would continue tickling her.
"Okay, okay" she said to make him stop. A long pause was made and then she told him "I am sorry for not being sorry" she smiled to him, and this made him more surprised and his hands were again placed on her belly, tickling her more.
The laughs could be heard from outside, but no one complained as it was sweet to hear that in a place where it was most usual the crying. This would make patients be happy everytime they heard the couple laugh. Not only them but the employees smiled while working and passing by in front of their room.
Yi Jeong enjoyed this moment as he laughed too. Ga Eul would try to make him stop but nothing seem to work as the only thing that could was to say sorry, and she didn't want to apologize as it seem fun and daring.
Suddenly, his hand accidentally touched the part where it hurt her, and this made Ga Eul scream a little as the wound hasn't totally recovered. So Yi Jeong stopped and carefully looked at her worried.
"I'm sorry" he apologized and delicately placed his hand on top of the one she was using to press the wound.
"Now you're the one apologizing" she gave a small smile, not losing her joking side. He smirked realizing she was supposed to be the one who had to say sorry, and he was the one who said it at the end.
After this, no one of them spoke but just appreciated each ones company. Ga Eul would slowly closed her eyes as the medicine were still making the effect. Her body got closer to his and without her even noticing, she placed her head on top of his chest and her hand on his stomach. So Yi Jeong stood there immobile for just a seconds when he finally placed his arm around her back, caressing her arm. "Sleep tight, country bumpkin" he gave a last glance to her sleeping face and kissed her forehead. Soon, he fell asleep too. The two bodies stood there, without moving, sharing their heat.
