I was nervously waiting backstage for my girlfriend, Lee Jieun, yes the super idol and actress IU.
Due to her busy schedule as a celebrity and my exam period in University, we haven't seen in almost a month, with only few short texts or video calls to know about the other. I didn't fault her and she didn't fault me. We both knew how things between us would have been.
The way we first met, wasn't how I fantasized about meeting my idol, but I surely couldn't complain.
*Flashback to two years before*
«Honestly Soo, I can't fucking wait to leave highschool. It sucks. Big time. I wanna work and get rich already.» I huffed quietly to my best friend Jisoo while helping to prepare the stage for a special performance from a mysterious idol «And why can't the teachers organize this event by themselves?! I've got enough to study.» Jisoo groaned «Don't complain Lis. Don't complain until you get to your last year like me. You've got it easy.» I rolled my eyes scoffing «Easy this dick. I am so done with everything already. Ow! Shit!» I yelped in pain seeing how I just stapled part of my middle finger, for then groan «Oh fuck! No! How am I gonna finger myself or a girl now?!» Jisoo chuckled, passing me a tissue and walking with me towards a random room with the first aid kit «As if you have anyone to finger. Also, we all know you're a little innocent virgin.» I scoffed «Stop ruining my badass girl imagine Jisoo! Keep it to yourself!» I puffed my cheeks and winced at the pain of the still attached staple «Damn Chu, you need to help me pull it out.» I showed my finger to Jisoo as she closed the door behind us, not really caring where we were «Nah uh. You know how I feel about "operating" on friends. Or really anyone. I don't wanna kill you.» Jisoo said crossing her arms and shaking her head, while I rolled my eyes «A staple won't kill me Sooya. I just need help in pulling it out in one go. Or else if I'll do it myself it'd be extra painful.» I pouted, but Jisoo kept her ground «No. Plus I think you should go to the hospital.»
I puffed my cheeks annoyed and discharging the tissue on the floor, I tried smearing my blood all over Jisoo's face, who screamed and grabbed my wrists keeping them far from her «Back off you whore!» «Then help me bitch!» «No!»
We kept wrestling until we were on the floor, Jisoo under me, still pushing me away, until I fell on my side and she topped me, keeping my hands to the floor, while we both breathed heavily and kept calling each others not so nice names, with love of course.
«Unnie! Let me go you asshole! You deserve it!» I said struggling against the full weight she had on my wrists «No dumbass! Not if you're gonna try and pull that shit again!»
«Uhm» a soft voice made us still «Am I interrupting something?» me and Jisoo stared at each other, quickly moving (still on the floor) on different directions pretending to puke «Eww!» I said «Not with chicken obsessed Soo!» Jisoo fired back «Not with miss virgin who looks like a monkey!» I gasped and glared at her «You bitch!» She stuck her tongue out «Whore.» «Asshole.» «Fucker.» «Motherfucker.» «Piece of shit.» «Bunch of piss.» «Flat ass.» «Flat chest.» «Skeleton.» «Surfboard.» «Eat shit.» «Eat piss.»
«Enough!» the stranger voice scolded us making us huff and roll our eyes, for then look at the person only to gasp and say together «It's IU.»
We quickly stood up and ran to each other, giving IU our backs as we whispered, ashamed of our shit show.
«What's even going on?» IU asked as we turned around, while she crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow questioning, Jisoo elbow me and I glared at her, for then sighing and explaining «We weren't really fighting. We're besties. I was just annoyed with this chicken for not helping me.» Jisoo said looking at IU annoyed and pointing at me «She wants me to remove the staple from her finger! I don't wanna kill her! I'm going! You do it! She got some blood on me. Yuck.»
So Jisoo was quickly gone, as I stared at her in disbelief «Jisoo! You can't leave me like this!» She scoffed «Oh I can Lisa. You're gonna thank me later. Bye bye.»
I sighed and looked at IU, while Jisoo closed the door «Well?» she asked as I looked at her confused «What?» «Show me your injured hand.» she pointed out, as I bit my lower lip and showed her.
She pulled me towards a table with the first aid kit, making me sit down as she asked worried «How did this happen Lisa?» «Well, first of all, my name is Lalisa. Lisa for friends. Second, I was just busy whining about school being hard and this happened. Third, you don't have to...» «You should be more careful.» she said as I hummed «I usually am. I'm just really stressed lately...» she hummed as there was a moment of silence, only ruined for a moment by my hiss of pain once she removed the staple, for then take some disinfectant and cotton and passing it on my bleeding finger, as I winced again.
Suddenly I broke the silence feeling a little uncomfortable «I'm a big fan of yours. I look up to you. Are you our special guest?» She smiled and hummed «I am. Also, thank you. I hope to be a good inspiration.» I firmly nodded «Yes, yes you are. Why wouldn't you be? Is it because of haters? Don't mind them. They're just jealous.» She chuckled «I'm glad I am.»
*End of flashback*
I'm not sure what made her come onto me that time, asking me to hang out sometimes and get closer, but I never really asked her. Who cares right?
«Lisa baby!» Jieun happy and tired voice brought me out of my thinking, arms wide open and smiling, as I also made a big smile and ran into her arms, both saying «I've missed you.»
I inhaled deeply her perfume mixed with sweat, rubbing myself more into her neck, humming happy. I really missed her.
We pulled away and pecked our lips as I told her «You did amazing! As always.» She smiled «Thank you. Although I'm not happy about my voice breaking during a high note.» I comforted her «It's okay, it happens. Your fans will still love you. Maybe tease you a little on sns but nothing bad. I didn't make a dinner reservation as I didn't know when you would have been free. I hope you don't mind.» I said the last sentence apologetic as she pecked my lips «Don't be sad. You did great. Even because I wanted to cook for you.» My eyes widened «No Jieun. You're tired. I should cook for you.» She pouted and made puppy eyes «You don't like my food?» She knew, she knew damn well what that beaten puppy face did to me as I sighed, raising my hands in surrender «Fine, fine. You won. You cook. But don't complain you're tired.» She smirked and said teasingly «It's usually you the one who complains.» I blushed understanding what she was hinting at «Lee Jieun! We're not alone!» I glanced at the staff who chuckled as I became even more red, Jieun chuckling and pulling me in a hug, kissing the top of my head «I'm sorry, you're just so cute. I love you.» I mumbled against her chest «I love you more. Can we go home now? Uni killed me today... And I really wanna cuddle you before dinner... You know what? Cook for me tomorrow, let's order take out and cuddle, please?» this time I made the puppy eyes «I've missed you.» She bit her lower lip and huffed, faking annoyance «Fine you needy baby.» I smiled smugly «Said the one who can't live without us cuddling every second when we're together.»
