KHIP-HOP Mini Series

Mino 07 (The end)

I had so many voice mail and text messages from him that I hadn't checked this past week. Instead I hid away like a coward. I stayed over at my grandmas instead and took some time off work.

The whole building a future together just sort of blew over.

It didn't matter what he and I wanted anymore, he was an idol and I was his secret. There was no denying that.

I hid myself in the deep layers of my duvet and listened to Mino's voice through the music he made. As I heard his voice I remembered all those times we spent together and I longed for the days where I was a fool.

But I knew better than to dream like one.

The dream was over, that much I knew.

I went to work as if nothing had happened, with my face held high I marched over to my desk and managed to get through the day with out a peep from me. I did get lots of stares though, but I was slowly growing used to them.

When worked finished I stayed behind a few more minutes before taking the elevator down. It was sunny outside so I grabbed my sunglasses and put them on. I headed for the bus stop my heels clicking on the ground.

I reached the stop, waiting for the next bus, when a sign caught my eye.

WINNER

I immediately found his face, it was even more real now. My finger unconsciously traced his jawline before pulling my hand back. "Mino." I whispered.

My bus arrived and I stayed behind again, watching the poster instead and for some odd reason I let the tears run down my cheeks. "I'm so sorry." I told him. "You probably think I hate you right now, but how could I? The only thing you did wrong was love me..." I pressed my head against the glass and cried even harder.

"Mianhae." I sob.

After I let out what I held in I realized that I could barely stand.

I sat at the rest stop the rest of the evening, watching everyone come and go while I was lost in thought. It wasn't until a familiar figure stood in front of me, my eyes raised meeting his own. He looked like he'd been through hell.

I wasn't going to deny that I looked any better myself.

"Babo, I've been looking for you." He takes his hand out offering it to me. "Jessica, please stop crying." Mino tells me.

Biting down on my lip I jump up and throw my arms around him. He hugs me back with as much enthusiasm. When he lets go of me I end up wobbling barely able to stand on my own two feet so instead Mino carried me bridal style.

He starts to head down a familiar street, I realize now that it isn't home we're heading too. There was a line outside the club but as soon as the bouncer saw Mino he let us through. I held my breath and tightened my grip around his neck.

He made his way to the dance floor where he set me down on my feet. His head nodded over to the DJ where he immediately changed whatever song was playing. Couples that were dancing to the song looked confused at the sudden change in music.

Mino-Body

I grew nervous all of a sudden, but he gave me a soft smile and pulled me close to him. He held me as close as he could and gentle as we slowed danced to his song. We were dancing so slow to the music that I could feel everyone's eyes on us practically.

But Mino didn't pay them any attention instead he kept his gaze on me, passionately starring into my eyes.

We were starring into each other's eyes and at that moment nothing else mattered, all I knew right there and then was how crazy I was over him. We stayed dancing at a slow spin through the song.

Neither one of us looked away, we were in a trance, lost in each other. Somehow that's how he always made me feel, like there was only ever just us. His eyes were full of love and passion and wouldn't leave mine for a second and I was beginning to feel like I didn't want this to ever stop. But when he leaned in and pressed his lips against my forehead, I gasped, but he kissed my eyelids, my cheeks and stopped at my lips.

"It should end here, right? Where we first met." My heart stopped, and I grew rigid.

Did I hear him right?

"I don't deserve you Jess, you need to find your person." He continues. "I did love you, I didn't lie about that. You were the best fucking thing that happened to me. I fucked up. I'm sorry." His song ends, and then there's just silence for a brief moment.

I can feel the urgency in the pits of my stomach, I want to tell him he isn't at fault, that I love him too but for some reason my lips are sealed. "I love you Jess, even if you hate me."

I feel him set himself free from me, dropping my hand he stands in front of me, holding my eyes. Waiting for me to say something, anything, but I drop my eyes to the numbness I feel in my hands. "Bye, Jessica." He steps close and leans down to plant a kiss on my cheek before turning to leave.

And it's when I'm watching him leave that I start to form words, but before they can fall from my lips he'd already stepped outside. I rush after him, the only thing I can think about is wanting to tell him I love him back.

And the more I push through the crowd, the harder it is for me to escape. I ended up being elbowed until I hit the ground. "Mino!" I shout.

No one really pays much attention to me as I stay there, but I can feel the sobs start to shake me again and I just want to go back to being in his arms. But after a while I realize that I must look like a fool, so I stagger to my feet.

Still wobbly I inch forward, my hands shot out and caught the collar of someone's jacket, but I knew this jacket, I knew this person. And my eyes shot up immediately, and there he was. Watching me with a worried expression but before he could ask me anything I pressed my lips against his.

He didn't hesitate to kiss me back. But in between kisses I ended up telling him, "Don't lie to me ever again."

Mino pulls back, his eyes wander over to my lips again. "I won't." He tells me.

He reached for me again, carrying me once more bridal style and says. "Your gonna have to marry me someday noona." I blush a deep red. "How about tonight?" He perks up at the thought but I immediately shoot him down.

"Only when you learn how to handle your liquor." I muttered.

He frowns. "No one could beat you." He retaliates.

"Ya! Song Minho." I smack him on the chest.

He smiles. "I'll beat you at liquor only if you let me do that thing again tonight." I blushed again and buried my face into his chest. "Can I?" He asks.

Hiding my embarrassment I simply nodded yes, my heart fluttered thinking about what tonight had in store. Knowing Mino I wouldn't be resting much tonight though.
