Chapter 5

Everyone enveloped you in a tight hug, "We're so happy for you dongsaeng, a date!" Key smiled and his eyes shone with happiness, it was almost like he was your replacement mother.

Taemin and the other boys also looked really happy, especially Taemin. "Maybe we should come with you…" Onew looked a little scared at letting you go on a date by yourself, especially with some man you had never met before.

You hit him lightly on the arm, "Oppa! I'm 17, I'll be fine!"

His mood lightened a bit, but he still looked serious, "Alright dongsaeng, but if you run into trouble, just call one of us and we'll be there faster then you can say 'puppets'!"You chuckled at your inside joke with Onew, Taemin's face twisted slightly and turned a bright red.

"Oh Taemin," Minho snickered, messing up his hair that had been perfect a few seconds earlier.

"Kwa!" he yelped in protest, squatting Minho's hand glimpse at the clock perched on top of the fridge.

'1:13pm'

"Oi! I better get going, I don't want to be late for my date!" you grab your coat and shove your feet into your old, torn, shoes that were probably 2 sizes too small.

Before you leave, you catch Taemin staring at you, he had a weird expression on his face, but when he realizes you were watching him he quickly diverts his attention back to Minho.

"Byeee!" you bellow behind you as you leave.

You can hear your oppas shouting words of encouragement after you, it makes you smile, knowing that these five men love you as if you were their little sister.~~~~~~~~~~~~~You wake to the café, your heart picks up pace with every step that you take. But what was there to be nervous of? If you didn't like him, you would simply tell him that you would not be seeing him again.

When you reach the café, there is not many people inside, you look around and catch someone waving at you.

You nearly fall over in surprise - he had glossy black hair, perfectly cut so it fell just below his ears, his face was small and round, almost like a little boys. But the most surprising thing of all were his eyes, they were the most stunning pair of sapphire blue eyes you had ever seen.

You delicately walk over to his table and take a seat in front of him."Bunny.." his voice sounds like wind chimes, and those eyes, oh god, you couldn't stop staring into them.

You both sit there, completely silent, simply staring into each others eyes. Could the world be more perfect?

If it was Taemin…

Your inner voice catches you off guard, but you ignore it, frankly, you didn't really care about Taemin at the moment.

"Miss, are you ready to order?" a waitress taps you on the shoulder, snapping you out of your trance.

"Oh! Yes, I will just have a coffee, please."

"Same for me," you find yourself melting whenever he speaks. He turns his attention back to you, taking you in once again.

Suddenly he chuckles, "silly me, I forgot to introduce myself!"

You suddenly become cognizant that he did indeed forget to tell you his name."My name is Chin Ho, it means precious and goodness."

You nod in agreement, he certainly was precious.

The waitress returns with your coffee, you thank her and resume staring at the treasure in front of you.

"I've seen you going into that building a few times before, do you live there? I hope my delivery man was able to find you. I told him to knock on every door, considering I don't know what apartment is yours!"

You wake up from your stupor, nodding vigorously."Ah, yes he did! Thank you for the note and chocolates, it was very nice of you!" you smile slightly, hoping your face isn't too red. What was wrong with you? You never blush this much, not even when you had realized who had rescued you from the street that night!

He tilted his head slightly, hair falling into one eye."You have an accent, I guess you haven't lived here all your life? Well, I can easily tell that you are not of Korean descent," he winked, it was even cuter then when Taemin winked!

You wondered how much you should reveal to this man, he obviously was not sent by Him. How could he possibly be? The man sitting in front of you was sweet, caring, charismatic, and impossibly adorable.

"Umm, I am from the States, I moved here last year…" that was true enough. He nodded, it was almost like he understood everything you had been noise of the café bubbled in your ears, you were curious about him, but to shy to bother him with petty questions.

He seemed to notice your distress, he reached over the table and clasped your hand with his.

His hand was warm and rough to the touch. But it felt good, his long fingers toyed with yours.

"Would you like me to walk you home now?"

You craned your neck to peer at the cafés clock that was situated in the far corner. "Yes, I had better go now, I have to help my…brothers prepare dinner."

You weren't sure how Chin Ho would react if you told him that you lived with the famous 'SHINee'.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~You walked hand in hand, slowly, savouring every moment. You thought it was strange that he was holding your hand after talking with you for only half an hour. But you couldn't care less.

As you approached the apartment building, he dropped your hand and turned to face you."I hope I will be able to see you again, soon. Unless you found me utterly repulsive?" he teased.

You giggled, how could Chin Ho think he was repulsive? "Yes, I look forward to seeing you again.."

He hands you a slip of paper with a phone number on it.

"Call me anytime."

You nod and say goodbye.

You turn around and start walking into the building, but you can still hear the melodic chime of his voice ringing in your ears…
