My Perfect Fairytale (Lee Donghae Fanfiction)

Chapter FOUR: "Where are we going?"

-Minjee-

Sitting on the peaceful Bada, I took out the book I was reading lately as I wore my headphones and listened to classical songs. It was lunch time but I didn't have the appetite to eat. Donghae called me earlier saying he had something urgent to go and he'll be coming late to Bada.

The prince hurried over to ask her to dance and then would not dance with anyone else all evening.

I have always been fond of reading fairytale books. I sometimes wish I could be one of those princesses; wearing a beautiful white sparkling gown as I dance with my prince all night. That moment would be dreamy. Unfortunately, too good to be true.

Cinderella was enjoying herself so much that she forgot the fairy godmother's warning, so she had a terrible fright when the clock began to strike midnight.

Even in fairytales, you need to struggle first to get a good happy ending. If one day, I meet my prince, what would be the challenges I'd have to face? Will I be brave enough to conquer them? Love alone is not enough for a happy ending, you also need courage.

-Third person POV-

Minjee closed the book as I felt her head throbbed. It had been aching since early this morning because of the sleepless nights she had. She closed her eyes.

Five minutes after, she fell asleep just as Donghae was walking towards her. His anger almost bursting out but shifted almost immediately when he saw her sleeping calmly. Before her head falls, Donghae hurriedly catch it and gently placed it on his shoulder.

"Today, I had a fight with my Dad." He sadly whispered while staring at the sleeping Minjee. He suddenly recalled something then looked down.

"Do you know the more I spend time with you, the more I feel guilty?" He sighed.

His mind filled with thousands thoughts when an arm hooked around his.

"You're here?" Minjee said softly, slowly opening her eyes, lifting her head up to see him.

"Yeah. Sleep some more." Donghae wrapped his arms around her shoulder and started humming a lullaby. Eventually, Minjee fell asleep again.

It was a quiet afternoon. Minjee's phone beeped.

Sender: Hyeon 

Hyemin, where are you?

Minjee checked her phone, still half asleep. She took a quick glance on her watch. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Class started an hour ago. She gently removed Donghae's arm wrapped around her. She was about to stand up but she can't just leave Donghae without waking him.

She walked towards him and patted his shoulder.

Donghae opened his eyes, and with the sight of Minjee he smiled sweetly.

"I'm going to class." She said. She stood up, about to leave when Donghae caught her hand. She blushed.

"Can't we go there together?" He groaned.

"Donghae, you do know how I hate attention, right?" She removed her hand on his, giving him a little smile.

"Fine." Donghae frowned and turned his head away, crossing his arms on his chest. Minjee giggled. Childish.

"I'll make it up to you later." She promised.

Minjee walked out the school with Hyeon as they came across Donghae. He was leaning on his motorcycle, crossing his arms and tapping his finger on his lips. He was looking down, spacing out. When he heard them, he looked up. Minjee and Donghae's eyes met; giving her a hint.

"I need to go. See you tomorrow Hyeonieee!~" Minjee waved at her friend and walked towards Donghae, leaving her friend confused. Most of the students already went home as there's not much students around anymore.

"Hey." Minjee smiled at Donghae while he was putting on the helmet on her.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"Just climb up." He said.

About to go, Donghae took Minjee's hand and wrapped it around his waist. Without even looking, Donghae knew she was blushing.

"Hold on tight. We're going somewhere special." He said as he started the motorcycle. Minjee complied, hugging Donghae tighter in fear for her dear life.
