Thought I'd do something different and have a little mid-week update. :) :)

Media is PSY's Nepal Baji because I am seriously obsessed with the MV and every time I listen to it I just wanna dance!!! XD And a hilarious image I found on Facebook :) 

Enjoy!! XOXO

"I can't believe she turned down coming here with me to be with her horrid ex-boyfriend!" I wail and burrow my face into Hanbin's hard chest.

His arms close around me tightly and he strokes my hair as I continue to sob and sob and maybe even scream for a few moments into his shoulder. Eventually, I'm feeling better.

I pull back and wipe my eyes with shaking hands, "I am so sorry about that. Gosh. I don't even know why it upset me so much, she's a total bitch normally. Why Jakob though? There's something about that guy which really ticks me off."

Hanbin blinks at me politely before saying, "Maybe it's just a misunderstanding."

I snort dramatically, "The only mistake is that she posted the damn picture thinking, what? That I wouldn't see it? Maybe I'm just offended that she obviously thinks I'm stupid."

"You're not stupid", he says flatly and something strange passes across his face.

Almost as soon as I've seen it, I've forgotten I did.

"Thanks. Really. Now let's just go see the rest of these paintings. Did you say everything you wanted to?"

Hanbin shrugs before leaning in and kissing my lips quickly, "Now I have."

I manage an amused smile, "Good. Because I'd defiantly like to talk with you again."

~~~~~~~

We look at all of the remaining paintings at an incredibly slow pace; me taking in ever little detail and constantly referring to my illustrated guide as Hanbin stands beside me politely. During this time we manage to agree on being an item but not telling anyone about it and just claiming to be friends. Hanbin also promises to continue working hard on his music and producing.

"That really was incredible", I mumble to myself as we leave the gallery at five to ten.

"It was", Hanbin agrees and grabs my hand, twisting our fingers together. "You're really beautiful when you're impressed." He gently lifts our joined hands to his lips and kisses the back of mine causing my heart to melt.

Smooth.

"Thank you", I finally manage to say, "You're like two different people sometimes, you know that?"

He shrugs lightly, "It's part of my charm. Let's go get ice-cream."

"This late at night?"

The corners of Hanbin's lips turn down slightly, "Don't you want to?"

"It's not that", I reply quickly and grab his arm with my free hand so I can pull myself tighter against him. "I'm just worried about you being tired tomorrow. It's still your comeback."

Hanbin looks gorgeously shocked for a moment, his lips forming a perfect 'O'.

"I totally forgot about that", he admits.

I gasp, "What? You forgot about your comeback? Seriously?"

He shrugs, "It's been...busy lately. That's all."

I narrow my eyes, "I hope that business has nothing to do with me, you said you'd still focus."

He snorts, "Don't flatter yourself", but he's grinning.

I roll my eyes and purse my lips dramatically. 

~~~~~~~

"What do you do in your spare time anyway?" I ask after walking in silence for several metres.

"Music, mainly", Hanbin says, "That's really been my life since..." he furrows his brow, "Well, I can't really remember."

I nod in understanding, "Happens to me all the time. Don't worry. You looked really adorable in the new music video too! Is that your usual look, or the swag look from the concert?"

"Swag look? I'm not sure. Maybe more the look I was wearing while bashing Junhoe."

"True", I nod. Swag look it is. "What about TV shows? Any dramas you're obsessed with?"

Hanbin holds the door to the small corner shop open for me and shrugs, "I don't really do much else but train and produce."

I walk through the doorway only to stop immediately and turn back to face him, eyes studying his poker face.

"Then why do you want to be with me?" I ask, "I don't get it. If music is your whole life, then why are you jeopardizing it?"

After Hanbin finished repeating 'jeopardizing' silently to himself he replies, "I don't know. I just know how I feel when I'm with you and when I kissed you. It's a weird feeling but I know it's right. It's hard to explain."

"I know the feeling", I say, "It tingles through me when I'm with you or think of you."

Hanbin looks startled, "Yeah. It's like that. Wow, that's really...strange."

Is it strange? Or is it fate? I can't help but wonder if the strong feelings I've been experiencing around him, unlike anything I've ever felt towards anyone in my life, are because we're meant to be together. Is this true love?

~~~~~~~

"Let's order some ice-cream before the cashier starts charging us for wasting her time", Hanbin suggests and breaks my line of thoughts.

A warm blush crawls across my face for no apparent reason and I try to hide it by turning away from him quickly. I'd just been wondering about fate and now it probably looked like I was thinking of something else. As this thought crosses my mind the blush increases to the point I can feel the tips of my ears burning. Why was this happening now?

"Are you okay?" Hanbin leans around me and peers at my red face. "I didn't mean to be rude."

"It's not that", I try to sound carefree but the words seem to catch in my throat.

What the hell is happening?

"Hey. Maybe you should take a seat?" the cashier suddenly chimes, "You don't look so good."

I don't look so good? The corner store suddenly tips violently and I stumble forwards, catching myself on the closest table. Gosh! Since when did we board a ship? Was it an earthquake? I can just make out Hanbin calling my name but it sounds like he's far away. As if he's at the other end of a tunnel. I stop walking for a second; the cool, damp air clinging to my skin and making me shiver. I glance back over my shoulder, down the long, dark tunnel at the tiny speck of light shining around a figure just as dark as the tunnel. I know it's where I've come from but I can't remember why. I turn to face in front of myself once again and am slightly unnerved by the fact there is no light ahead. No point in which to continue towards. Just solid darkness.
