Lovesong

Chapter 66

This was our time and I was not about to let anyone or anything come in between us. I thought of my best friend as I held his naked wife in my arms. I'm definitely going to burn for this, but I didn't care. This was right. This is where Kate needed to be. Or maybe it's where I really need to be. Either way we have this unexplainable love for one another. It's beautiful and perfect. And I'm in awe at the euphoria I'm in. Kate's right there with me smiling at me. And I'm more in love than ever. Then I slowly come down off my high when I realize what we've done. I think of Gyu. I wanted this with my Just Kate, and yet, I didn't see how much she would reap the consequences if Gyu finds out. I had to make sure that didn't happen. Kate lightly touched my jaw when she saw the distance in my eyes, "Junnie?" I blinked my guilty conscience taking hold on me. I said sadly, "My love, can you ever forgive me? What have we done?" Kate sat up covering her naked chest with the sheet. She needed a second to comprehend and come down from her state of ecstasy. I touched her lower back, "Kate?" She looked back at me over her shoulder, "Oh my god, Junnie. Now you regret sleeping with me? You've never said that to me before. Talk about a slap in the face." She quickly slid out of bed and stumbled to the bathroom slamming the door. I laid there staring up at the ceiling then I heard the shower turn on. I made up my mind that we were not going to kill our endearing moment with regret. I threw back the covers and with no second thoughts I joined her in the shower. She jumped at the sound of the sliding door, "Junnie, what the hell?" I took her face into my hands and backed her up against the wall, "Kate, hell no. No. Never. Making love to you is never a regret. I don't want you thinking I regret any of this. I came to you. I wanted to be with you." Tears filled her eyes, "But you said...What was I to think?" I smoothed her hair, still holding her head, "Love, I was overthinking. I'm sorry. My god. Making love with you is one of my favorite pastimes. I find myself reaching for yesterday because I'm frightened of tomorrow. I'm always trying find the feeling that's gone astray." Her bottom lip trembled, "Junnie, it's here. In my heart. With me." I caught myself getting misty eyed, "Love, I remember the look in your eyes, and the love we made. The memory of you is something I can't erase. I'm holding on, and I don't know what to do. The pieces I used to know won't fit into place. No matter happens after today, Kate, we can't let it end this way." She pushed up on her tiptoes and kissed me, "Junnie, my sweet Junnie. I love you so much. This with us won't ever change." I stated, " Kate, you say that. While we're hiding our feelings, we're leaving love behind."

Kate arrived at BigHit and walked into through the studio door where Tae said he would be. The room filled with sweet fragrance of vanilla, and he lifted his head from his position on the floor in her direction. His dark eyes was taking her in, dressed in a sleeveless olive green jumpsuit. In her grasp she held coffee from Starbucks. Tae asked with a flirty twinkle in his eyes, "Caramel macchiato?" She looked at the drink then at him, "You know it." She walked over and took a seat next to him, "Sorry I didn't get here right away." He tried not to smile, "No need to apologize. You have your own life. All that matters is that you're here now." She took sip of her coffee, and motioned to the scattered papers fanned out in front of him, "Are you having any luck?" He sighed reluctantly, "Does it look like it?" He picked up a piece a paper from the floor where he'd been writing and wadded it up, "I've been at this for hours. And I can't get the words out. That's why I called you." She sat the coffee on the floor and leaned over Tae's lap to gather the papers next to him. His heart almost took a flying leap out of his chest. His eyes dropped to the curve of her spine, when her long locks fell over her shoulder, and moved over her backside and back up. All he'd been doing was thinking about her since that day he helped her with the song. My god! Gyu is lucky to be tangled up in her silky, long hair and sexy limbs. He had to bite his tongue for saying what he was feeling. Her knowing my heart his heart was enough. She sat back on her legs, "Okay, let's see what you have here." Did he really want her to read the words of his heart? "Angel Baby" was playing in the background softly, and Kate began singing along. Tae was moved. He was moved the moment she walked through the door. She couldn't believe she was here. She had come to help him out of his writers slump.
