A STAR FOR A STAR (XIAH FANFIC)

CHAPTER 26

A month passed . . . .

            "Hyung . . . . " Max called out.

            Xiah suddenly opened his eyes. "What?" he asked while his eyes were still closed. He was still very sleepy and he wanted to sleep some more.

            "You're supposed to go on a date with Iqa today right??" Max asked with a raised eyebrow.

            Xiah suddenly opened his eyes. "What? What day is it today?" he asked as if somehow confused.

            Max suddenly grinned. "Hyung . . . . she's already waiting outside . . . . So better get up already."

            Xiah immediately got out of bed. Then as he was about to go out the room, Moniqa entered with Jaejoong, Micky and U-Know behind her.

            "Wake up . . . . sleepy head!" Moniqa said with a big smile on her lips.

            "Hey! I am already awake . . . . See!" Xiah answered with a grin.

            "Don't tell me you forgot about our date today? . . . . Because if you did . . . . Well, I certainly have to punish you . . . ." Iqa said with a pout.

            Xiah laughed. "Sorry . . . . Frankly, I forgot . . . So what would be my punishment . . . . my princess?"

            "My princess eh? You're making sweet talk now?" she suddenly laughed.

            "Sorry . . . ." Xiah suddenly said seriously.

            Moniqa suddenly embraced Xiah.

            "Your punishment would be . . . . to hug me whole day long," she said with a laugh.

            "That isn't a punishment . . . . but a treat," Xiah said as he suddenly grinned.

            "Hey! You guys are already too sweet . . . .ants would surely love to get their hands on you," Micky said as a joke.

            "So Xiah . . . . are you ready to go yet?" Moniqa asked impatiently.

            Xiah laughed. "Not yet baby . . . . not unless you want to go out with me in my pajamas . . . ."

            The other DBSK members suddenly burst out laughing. Moniqa laughed as well. . . . . but then  she started pinching Xiah.

            "You naughty boy . . . . " she said as she gently pinched him on the arm.

            "Just give me fifteen minutes okay?" Xiah said to Moniqa with a sweet smile.

            "Okay . . . Hey . . . . Jaejoong . . . Micky . . . Max . . . U-Know . . . . Would you guys like to come with us?" Moniqa suddenly asked the other DBSK boys.

            "What? Us? Are you sure?" Jaejoong asked with a surprised expression on his face.

            "We certainly don't want to intrude," Micky added.

            "Hyung . . . . won't like it if we tagged along," Max said with a smile.

            "Don't worry . . . . I assure you . . . it would be fun. . . And besides . . . I know how much he loves you guys . . . . So I think he won't mind if you guys came along . . ." she answered.

            "No . . . it's okay . . . We certainly would be a  bother to both of you," U-Know said.

            Moniqa laughed. "Come on guys . . . .You won't  be bothering us, believe me. So please come along . . .I know you guys would just love the place where we are going."
