Chapter 19

SooIn&JaeJoong-You Like The Chase & That's All Pt2

Later on that day, SooIn went home for the

day, and drove back to her apartment. She was in the

living room, cleaning her coffee table, when her

phone rang. She looked at the caller ID, not recognizing

it, but answered it anyway. "Hello?" She said as she

picked up old papers from her coffee table, walking over

to the trash and dumping them in. "SooIn?" A male

voice said. "Oh, JaeJoong right?" She said.

"Yeah. How'd you know?" He said. "Oh, I don't know,

there's just something in your voice I guess." She said.

He laughed lightly. "Really? Well, how would you like

to have dinner tonight?" He asked her. She smiled

lightly, though he couldn't see her. "I'd like that."

She said. "Really?" He said. "Yeah. But I'd have to

check my schedule though." She teased him lightly.

"You do that." He said. "Hold on, I'll go check my

planner." She said with a laugh. She waited a few seconds,

then said. "Hmm. Looks like I'm free. Sometimes I forget

if I have plans or not, being that I'm so busy." She

said again. "Really?" JaeJoong said, sounding

amused. "Yeah. So, how does 7 o' clock sound to you?"

She asked him. "Sounds perfect. I know this really

good club.." He started to say. "Oh, I'm not really

into clubs." SHe said. "Oh, well I know this great

winery.." He started to say again. "Oh, I'm not a fan

of alcohol. Even wine." She said. He seemed surprised.

"Oh, well, I think I know just the place then. Dinner

at a restaurant, movie at my place?" He suggested.

"Sounds perfect." She quoted his words from earlier.

"Alright. It's a date then." He said. "Maybe." She

said lightly, and they both laughed, then hung up.

SooIn got up from the couch, and walked over

to her bathroom, taking a shower, then slipping into a

simple black A-line dress. She curled her eyelashes,

and applied a single coat of mascara to her upper lashes,

and a slightly berry hued lipcolor, keeping her look

as natural as possible. She spritzed on a little bit

of Daisy Marc Jabos perfume, and slipped on low silver

peep toe heels. She pulled her hair back in a loose updo.

Then checked the time. She took the elevator down to the

first floor, and walked out to the front of the

apartment complex, where JaeJoong was waiting in his

silver sports car. He got out and opened the passenger door

for her. She thanked him and went inside. He came back

around to the driver's side. "You look really nice."

He told her. "Thanks. You don't look to bad yourself."

She said with a smile. He looked very sharp in a white

dress shirt, and black tie, and black dress pants.

He gave a small smile and started the car, and they

took off. They arrived a quaint little restaurant.

He paid the valet and handed him the keys, and he drove

off to park JaeJoong's car. JaeJoong and SooIn walked

into the restaurant, where a maitre'd seated them.

She looked around, at the Italian type of scenery

around the place. "Wah. This place is so nice." She

said. JaeJoong smiled. "May I take your order sir

and miss?" A waiter said, arriving at their table.

"I'll have the penne chicken rustica." JaeJoong ordered.

"And to drink?" The waiter asked him. "What do you have

on your wine specical today?" He started to ask, but

saw SooIn just glancing at him. "I mean, I'll have

a mango iced tea." He ordered. "Excellent choice sir.

And for you miss?" He asked SooIn. "I'll have the

four cheese tortelinni with marinara sauce, and rasberry

lemonade." She ordered. "Excellent. I'll take your

menus, and your orders should arrive shortly." The waiter

said, and then left. SooIn glanced back at JaeJoong.

"So, you're into wine?" She asked him. "Not really."

He said. She smiled, smirking a little. "I saw you

changed your mind about your drink order after I glanced

at you." She said, stirring the water with a lemon slice

that was already served to them. "My change of mind

had nothing to do with that." He said. "Really? Well

either way, I'm glad you chose not to drink. Even if it's

a little." She said. He nodded. "So what school do you

go to?" He asked her. He was wondering to himself, why

he was doing the polite conversation, usually by now,

he'd be seated next to the girl, telling her how amazing

she looked in her dress, and she'd usually be pretty

drunk by now. It was a puzzlement to himself. "I go

to KyungHee university." She told him. "Oh. That's a

good school. I go to DongGuk." He told her. She nodded.

"Oh, I hear they have very good extra curriculars

there." She told him. He nodded. "Yeah. There's a wide

range of classes to choose from." He said. "So, tell me.

Why did you ask me out?" She asked him very frankly.

He looked surprised. "Well, like you said there's

something in my voice, there's just something in your

eyes. It intrigues me." He said in a low voice.

SooIn blushed slightly. "With words like that, I'm

surprised you don't have girls all over you." She

said with a laugh. JaeJoong smiled. "I'm surprised

myself." He joked. And she laughed again. He had never

heard a laugh with such an airy, almost melodious sound

like her own. Soon their food came and they ate, talking

some more. They finished their food and shared a

tiramisu, then he paid for the bill. They walked out of

the restaurant driving back to his place. She was amazed

at his loft. "Your loft is amazing." She commented, looking

around at the modern but comfortable feel. On the

far left wall, was a large abstract painting, and to the

right, was the spiral staircase that led up to his room,

and two other guest rooms. And the large flat screen

tv on the right wall. She took of her shoes and left them

at the doorway, then they walked over to the couch, and

she sat down, while he looked for a good DVD to put in.

"How about 'Someone Behind You?'" He suggested a korean

thriller movie. She nodded. And he put that DVD in.

He excused himself for a moment, then went to the

kitchen, and filled up two champagne glasses. Then came

back to the living room, offering SooIn a glass.

She shook her head, with a small smile. "If I didn't

know any better, I'd think you were trying to get me

drunk." She said jokingly. He smiled. "Course not."

He said and left the champagne glasses on the coffee

table untouched. He picked up the remote and pressed

play. And gave SooIn a small quilt blanket to put over

herself. "Thanks." She said, placing it over her legs

and pulling it up to her lap. She leaned on his

shoulder, and he could smell the faint scent of

perfume on her skin. Here and there, a scary scene

would come on, and she would clutch onto his

shirt sleeve. JaeJoong would chuckle and say,

"It's just a movie." He said, trying to reassure her.

Soon the movie finished and SooIn had fallen asleep.

He gently got up off the couch, and looked down at her.

"This girl, has been the hardest challenge. But she's

different." He said to himself silently. He gently

scooped her up, and walked up the spiral staircase,

bringing her to one of the guest rooms. And tucking her

in. Then he scrawled a small note and placed it on

the nightstand, for her to see when she woke up.

He walked down the second floor hallway and went to

his own room, slipping out of his dress shirt, tie,

and dress pants, and changing into sleeping clothes

and went to his bathroom, brushing his teeth, and

then going to bed.

The following morning, SooIn woke up to the sun

shining down on her face, she stretched, yawning,

and sat up, then realized she wasn't at home.

"OMO. I fell asleep here?" She said, then glanced over

at the nighstand. A note was there, from JaeJoong, telling

her that she fell asleep and he didn't want to wake her

so he just brought her there. "Oh. Hmm." She said, and

could smell food cooking. She got up, went to the

guest bathroom, and washed her face, gargling, then

combed her hair a little, and went downstairs to the

kitchen, where JaeJoong was cooking. "Hey. You should've

woken me up." She said, still slightly tired.

He smiled. "It's okay. I'm used to my guy friends

falling asleep on that couch, but then I wake them

up and tell them to go home already." He said with

a smile. SooIn smiled back and sat down at one of

the kitchen stools. "Hungry?" He asked her. She nodded

and he gave her a plate of mushroom and cheese omelet,

toast, with a side of jam, a blueberry muffin, canadian

bacon and a cup of hot coffee. He sat down next to her

and they both ate. She glanced at the time on his

microwave. "OMO. I'm gonna be late for work!" She

exclaimed and quickly finished up her food, going over

to the sink, washing her plate. "Thanks JaeJoong

again, I'll see you!" She said quickly, and grabbed

her purse, slipping on her heels in the doorway, and

leavinghis apartment quickly. He was stunned and she

quickly came back in a few seconds later. "Uh, I forgot, I

didn't drive here." She told him, slightly embarrased.

He smiled and got up from the stool, getting his car keys.

"I'll give you a ride." He said and drove her to her

apartment, so she could go in and change first. She

thanked him and he drove off back to his place.

Later on that day, he was at Donguk University

as his friends were asking him questions. "Hey hyung,

where were you?" Junsu asked him. "He was probably

with Boa." ChangMin said. "Or Seulgi." Yunho added.

"Or Yeonhee." YooChun said. JaeJoong shook his head.

"I was with SooIn." He told them. The guys whistled low.

"Another one? Really hyung." Yunho said in disbelief

and admiration. "We are truly not worthy." YooChun

smirked. "So is she hot?" JunSu asked. "She's cute,

but I like her, cause it's a challenge to get to her."

JaeJoong said. The guys nodded and walked down the hallway.

"SooIn customer!" Her manager called to her,

from the back room of the coffee shop. "Neh." She

called back and adjusted her green apron, and walked over

to the cashier side of the coffee shop, and she was

surprised to see JaeJoong there. He smiled and she smiled

back. "Hey, what can I get you?" She asked him.

"Well, I'd like a second date, with this girl I went

out with last night." He said. SooIn smiled back.

"Really? Well, I think she'd like that too." She

said softly. "Really? How about a daytime date then?

Say at three?" He suggested. She nodded. "Sure. I get off

in a few minutes anway." She told him. He waited

at one of the tables and she soon came around

leaving the work station and took off her apron, leaving

for the day. He got up and they walked a few blocks

to Panera, a quaint bistro that served soup and

fresh sandwhiches. "Did you go to school yet?" He

asked her. "Yeah. You?" She asked him. He nodded.

They ate their fresh sandwhiches with salad that

had strawberries and rasberry vinagretee, and talked

some more.

Weeks passed by, and JaeJoong found himself canceling

out on Boa, Yeonhee and SeulGi to spend more time with

SooIn. The guys noticed this and called him out on it.

"Yah hyung, are your player days over? You've been

with SooIn and ignoring your other three girlfriends

how long now?" Yunho asked him. "Yeah hyung, usually

you'd hook up with a girl after a few days, then move

on, with Boa, SeulGi and Yeonhee being the regulars."

ChangMin added. They were all in another club, and

SooIn after spending more time with JaeJoong finally

relented into going to one. Unfortunately, she had

just come back from the ladies room when she heard

the guys say all this.

"Three girlfriends?!" She said in disbelief. Jaejoong

turned around from the bar, and looked at her wide eyed.

"SooIn. No. I.." He started to say, she slapped him

hard across the face. "I should've known." She said,

shaking her head, and turning around, to walk out of

the club, but he grabbed her wrist, turning her back

around to face him. "Let go." She said firmly.

"No. Listen to me." He said. "No. You listen to me.

Of all people. I really should've known. You fooled

me well, Kim JaeJoong. So I'm just girl number four

huh? Is that it? I was so stupid. Thinking "Oh, wow.

He cooks. He's so sweet, it was all part of your

game huh? Just another girl to check off of your list.

You've already been through the slutty one, the

easy one, the ditzy one, and what am I? The naive

and innocent one? I f$%(%* can't believe this! I

let myself fall into all of your games, and for what?

I gave my f%(*%% virginity to you! And this is how

I find out it was all a f$)C(#! mistake?!" She cursed

at him. The whole club went silent. "SooIn I.." He

tralled off. "Shikiro! (Shut up) I don't want to

hear it. I don't ever want to see you again!" She

shrieked at him, pulling her arm out of his grasp

and storming out of the club. "Wow." The guys

said, rubbing the back of their heads and turned back

around to continue drinking. "I gottta go." JaeJoong

said. "Hyung, you've really lost your touch." ChangMIn

said. "I don't f$(%)!@ care anymore!" He yelled back

and rushed out of the club. He drove over to SooIn's

banging on her apartment door. "Go away!" She called out

to him. "SooIn. Please just let me explain!" He

told her. "No. Go before I call the cops on you."

She said to him. A neighbor beside SooIn's apartment

opened the door. "Young man, listen to her, or I

am going to call the police myself if you don't

stop that racket!" A cranky old woman said.

JaeJoong bowed and left the apartment complex.

SooIn slid down onto the floor, her knees to her chest,

crying. "I gave him everything. Everything." She said,

softly.

The following day, JaeJoong went over to the coffee

shop, where SooIn worked. But he was told that she

took the day off. He drove over to her apartment again.

And knocked on the door. "Who is it?" She asked.

"Delivery." He said in a different voice. She

went over and opened her door, as he was not seen in

front of the peephole. He quickly appeared and pushed

himself into the apartment. "Get out. I'll call

the police I swear." She said to him. "SooIn, please.

All I'm asking for is for you to listen to me. I'm

not telling you that you have to believe me." He said.

She sighed and she sat down at the couch in her living

room, while he sat at the opposite recliner chair.

"Yes, I was seeing three other girls. And at first,

it was only a challenge to get to know you. But

I stopped seeing them soon after I continued seeing you.

I swear. And you're the only one I've ever slept with

I swear." He said.

"What about that girl Boa getting drunk? What happened

then?" She asked him, her eyes hard. He sighed and

explained.

[Flashback]

He helped Boa into the hotel room, and closed

the door behind him. He placed her on the bed gently,

and went to the bathroom, placing a cold washcloth

over her forehead. She knocked out almost instantly and

he slept on the reclining chair.

[End of flashback]

"But what about SeulGi?" She asked him.

[Flashback]

JaeJoong and SeulGi were in a taxi as she tried

to kiss him, but he pushed her away lightly. "Look

I'm just not in the mood." He told her. She looked

at him in disbelief. "Kim JaeJoong not in the mood?

The one time a girl's willing to give it without

being drunk and your passing?" She said. He nodded.

"Look. I'll take you back to your place." He said.

"So you're not really like everyone says you are?

Wait till I tell your friends." She said. "Fine. Like

they'll believe you, over me." He said. She scoffed

and he dropped her off at her place.

[End of flashback]

"And Yeonhee?" SooIn asked him finally. "She was

just a girl that I was seen with around campus.

I never did anything with her." He said. "But why

the lies then? You weren't man enough to tell your

friends you didn't want to be a player? So you lied"

She said, in disapproval. He sighed. "I know. I did.

SooIn, I'm not expecting you to accept me after

this. But ever since I met you, I've changed. I told

my friends I didn't give a sh%# anymore if they thought

I lost my touch. I've spent more time with you than

any other girl. You're the only one that I could truly

be myself with. To show you I cook, to joke with you.

If you ask the guys I almost never smile, but I found

myself smiling with you. You're the only girl I've ever

felt comfortable enough with, to give everything to.

And I swear to you, you are my first also. SooIn ah,

I know that I've hurt you, probably more than anyone

else has, and I've hurt myself too. But I have never

meant anything more, when I tell you, that I really love

you." He said. He had looked at her as if he was trying

to see right through her and she had to look away for

a moment. But then she burst out crying. He got up

from the recliner chair, walking over to her, and wrapping

his arms around her, hesitantly at first, but she didn't

push him away, and he tightened his grip around

her. "Babo." She sniffed. He smiled, and pulled back

a little, wiping away her tears, gently with his

thumb. She looked back up at him. "I love you too. But

I swear if anything like this ever happens again.

I'm dumping your ass." She said. He laughed. "I promise

it won't." He said. She gave him a small smile, and

he took her face in his hands, gently, kissing her

softly, and she kissed him back. It looks like it

wasn't all about the chase after all.
