Blackmail

RECAP:

"Well, I want to point out something to you."

"And, what is that exactly?"

"Stay away from Jaejoong!"

"What?!"

"I'm serious, you better stay away from him."

"And why should I?"

"Because I'm supposed to be with him! Also, I know him better than you do!" that ticked me off, but I was trying to keep my temper as low as possible.

"What makes you think that?"

"Don't you remember that commercial I did with him? Haptic?" So? I don't care about her or her commercials!

"You know we're just friends right?"

"Friends or not, I still have proof that you two have already been on a date."

"So?"

"So, if you don't stay away from him, I'll expose it to the media."

"What exactly is this 'proof' of yours ?" I saw her pull out her Haptic phone. She had a video and numerous pictures of me and Jaejoong.

"Mi Je, you don't want photographers following you everywhere just because of a date with Jaejoong, do you?"

"Of course I don't! Bu-"

"Then do as I told you to! Got it?" I was just about to slap on the back of her head when she turned around, but luckily I didn't. She had turned around before I got the chance. Lucky person.

"Oh, and don't tell anyone about this, or else." I watched her walk away. I felt furious and hurt at the same time. My idol, telling me to stay way from someone I've only gone out with once! But care about so much. Even though I can't tell anyone, I know I really have to tell Jooyin.

"She's blackmailing you?!"

"Yeah."

"Mi Je, you have to tell Jaejoong! I'm sure he'll understand!"

"I don't know, I might tell him tonight. But what if she sees me with him?"

"Then call him and tell him to come over to your house!"

"Okay! Okay! Aish! We're already on the phone. You don't have to yell."

"Sorry, it's just really shocking that Tiffany would be like this."

"I know. Well I have to go and call Jaejoong. Bye."

"Bye, and good luck!"

After about 20 minutes, Jaejoong had arrived.

"So why did you want me to come over to your house instead?"

"I'll tell you when we're in my room."

"Where are your parents?"

"They're out, having dinner."

"Can we go up to your room now?"

"You know you're asking a lot of questions today, right?" We both laughed. "But, yeah, sure."

"Wow, I think your room is even bigger than the kitchen in my apartment."

"Hmm… I don't get that often. Anyway, what did you want to tell me?" I noticed that his cheeks had turned a little pink. Maybe he… no! It's not possible! He came up to me and took my hands.

"Mi Je, I want you to be my girlfriend." There was a little pause between me and him.

"Jaejoong, I want to be your girlfriend, it's just that what I have to tell you is standing in the way of me being your girlfriend."

"Then, what do you have to tell me?" I could tell he was worried.

"Well… umm…s-someone's blackmailing me and she's telling me to stay away from you… and the blackmail is a video and a bunch of pictures of the date we went on last week. And I-I don't want to ruin our career by the media saying that you went out with an infamous high school girl!" I felt a bunch of tears streaming down my face rapidly. I suddenly then felt him pull me into a hug.

"Mi Je, you won't ruin my career, and I should be worried about you."

"I'm sorry." I wasn't crying as much as before, so I think he understood what I said.

"No, don't be." He lifted my chin up and gave me a kiss on the lips. Even though I jus met him in a way, I think I'm falling in love with him. We both pulled away from the kiss gently after about …well actually I don't really know. I didn't keep count.

"What was that for?"

"To make you feel better." I have to admit, it did make me feel better. Weird.

"Now, who's blackmailing you?"

"Umm… you've done a commercial with her." I didn't know if I should tell him or not, so I kept on giving him little hints.

"Mi Je, just tell me who it is."

"Okay, but she told me not to tell anyone, so please don't tell her I told you."

"Of course I won't."

"I-it's… Tiffany from SNSD."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes."

"I can't believe this, she doesn't seem like a person that would blackmail."

"That's what I thought too, until she threatened me."

"Mi Je, I'm sorry I got you into this."

"No! it's not your fault. It's not your fault that a lot of girls like you and Tiffany is an obsessed control freak right now!" We both laughed.

"Did that make you feel better?" He was still laughing a little bit.

"Yes. And don't worry, I'll try to find a way to talk to her without her knowing about that I know she's blackmailing you. But you still haven't said if you're going to be my girlfriend or not." I knew the answer to that question very well. But before I could answer, I saw him pull out a small velvet, rectangular box. He opened it and my eyes widened. It was a gold charm-like bracelet with a little heart charm that had the names 'Mi Je & Jaejoong' engraved on it.

"Jaejoong! You shouldn't have!" Bet you've heard that line somewhere else before!

"But I wanted to."

"Either way gift or no gift, yes, I'll be your girlfriend!" I gave him a peck on the cheek and hugged him.

"Thank you so much! I love it!"

"Your very welcome!"

I feel so much better today, knowing that I have people who care about me no matter what happens.

"Mi Je!" I looked around and saw that SooLi and Dongkae were running at me. Well actually SooLi was running and Dongkae was 'fast walking'.

"Oh my gosh! Are you going to be okay about the-" SooLi started to whisper quietly.

"blackmail?"

"Yeah, how are you going to deal with it?" Dongkae pushed up his glasses while asking as if he was trying to be mysterious. But I haven't even told them yet, so how?

"But how-"

"Jooyin told us, but don't worry we didn't or won't tell anybody else." SooLi bursted out.

"Oh." Jooyin was good at keeping secrets, just not from SooLi and Dongkae.

"Well right now I don't know, but Jaejoong said that he was going to figure something out." They both nodded their heads.

"Anyway, do you guys want to come to Sa Yeong's party tonight with me?" Dongkae and I both sighed at SooLi.

"SooLi, I don't even know how you made it to high school by partying all night long." I said with a non-amused face. I finally realized that Jooyin wasn't here with us.

"Hey, where's Jooyin?"

"Oh yeah!" Dongkae had burst out.

"She told me to tell you that she's not coming today because one of her relatives is getting married."

"On a weekday? Why not weekend?"

"They say it's cheaper."

"Oh." I nodded my head.
