Firsts: A Boys Over Flowers Fanfiction

Chapter 9

Note: Well, who says writing isn't a medicine. I've been sick this week, and have finally broken my fever. I woke up with the urge to write, and I'm feeling better because of it. So, here's the next installment of my Boys Over Flowers fanfiction. I haven't switched it out of a fanfiction yet. This morning it all clicked. So, I'm leaving it for now and seeing where it will take me. Enjoy!-Marilyn

Chapter 9

Tiffany's POV

I was really enjoying dancing with Joon-Pyu's friends. They were a riot. They were pretty cute too. I looked at Yi-Jung and then Woo-Bin. We did some hip bumps and I spun around between them. Yes. His friends were a lot of fun. I wonder why he kept them such a secret. The song ended, and I turned to see Joon-Pyu standing in front of me.

He turned to his friend. "Leave us."

Both of his friends looked sheepish as they nodded and left the dance floor. A slow song started, and Joon-Pyu took my arms in a more formal dance hold. With his hand behind my waist, and holding one arm up, he looked into my eyes. "What were you thinking?"

"Thinking for what?"

"For bringing my friends here."

"You couldn't go to Korea. I brought what you missed in Korea to you."

"I can live without my friends. It builds character." His pursed lips revealed he was hiding something.

"Did I miss something?"

"No. They are here now."

"You don't seem happy about that."

He stopped our movement, holding me still. "I'm happy I'm with you. I don't want to share that with the world."

"If you're friends with a pop star, it might be kind of hard to hide." I started our movement, leading him to begin our circular movement back to the music. "Remember, friends in public. More than friends behind the scenes."

"I didn't want to share this with them."

"Is that you didn't want to share me?" He seemed speechless by this. I continued. "You just don't like being out of control, Joon-Pyu. I've learned that much about you so far." I stopped dancing as the song ended. "Loosen up and have fun. I've got to see to my other guests." I winked at him as I left him on the dance floor. He had a lot to learn about being one of my friends.

Joon-Pyu POV

She left me on the dance floor to stare at her. I watched her slim crème accented form wander through the dance floor, people stopping to catch her hand or smile as she walked past. Maybe she was right. I didn't know how to be her friend. It was a whole new experience.

I felt a hand on my shoulder. "She's quite a woman." Ji-Hoo stood behind me.

"Yes. She is."

"Anyone would be happy to have her as a friend, Joon-Pyu." People crowded around us taking up the dance floor with the next song.

I turned to him. "I don't know if I can handle being the friend of a pop star."

I left the floor, cutting a path through the dancers. I didn't care if he followed. In fact, I didn't care if the whole F4 group stayed or left the US. I just knew I needed to leave this party. I had to sort this feeling in me. I didn't want them in my life suddenly. Their intrusion was setting me out of balance. I wanted to get that control back.

I moved towards the door and was blocked by Yi-Jung and Woo-Bin. They looked at me. Woo-Bin spoke. "Where are you going?"

"I've got to leave."

"So soon. We've just arrived." Yi-Jung actually looked hurt.

"I've got things to do in the morning."

"We can do that with you."

"Not this."

"Well, tomorrow meet us at the New Yorker. It's where we're staying. The Penthouse."

I just wanted to get out of there. "Ok. After my appointments tomorrow." I'd agree to anything just to get out of there. "I'll see you tomorrow." I was feeling like I couldn't breath.

Yi-Jung seemed satisfied. "Tomorrow then." He patted me on the back as I headed to the door to get out of Tiffany's party. Freedom was at hand. I'd figure the rest tomorrow.

I hit the button to the elevator, and the doors opened, freeing me of the party. I breathed a sigh in the elevator. Maybe I could get over this uneasy feeling with some sleep. Anything to get away from my past. Then it hit me. It was my past I wanted to get away from.

As the elevator brought me to street level, I knew what I had to do tomorrow. Send my friends home in one of my company jets. I smiled knowing that this would bum them out. Well, maybe after a day or two. By themselves, they weren't so bad. But with Tiffany? My skin flushed. I started to recognize the jealousy within me. I knew then, I didn't want to share her. Even as a friend.

TIFFANY'S POV

I watched Joon-Pyu head to the elevator. He seemed to flee my party. I turned to see Ji-Hoo standing next to me.

I think he could see the question mark expressed in my face because he said, "He's off balance. He does this when he's not in control. He'll be back."

"Can you be sure?" I bit my bottom lip.

Joon-Pyu turned to me. He had kind eyes. The kind you could pour your heart out to. "We haven't seen him for two years. It's the first time we've been separated like this. I wasn't sure how he was going to deal with it. Now I know."

"You guys are like brothers, then?"

"Something like that. School brothers."

"Sort a like family then. Adapted family. I can understand that. Maybe I shouldn't have surprised him."

"No, it is good for him. I think if he stayed isolated from us, it wouldn't be good. A visit from friends is always good."

"There's only one thing to do then?"

"What's that?"

"Dance."

I grabbed Ji-Hoo's hand and lead him back inside the party. I figured the best way to get to know Joon-Pyu was to get to know his friends. And I had all night.
