Taemin in real life.

Part 34

We were on the plane back from Norway heading for home. The managers had told me they had arranged so we would leave out the back of the airport therefore avoiding fans who were waiting, though they couldn't be sure all of them would miss us. They had originally wanted us to leave separately but I was not going to leave her not now she had a broken arm and besides they know what she looks like now. So what did it matter if they saw us together again.

We landed and were escorted off first. We made our way through immigration and then we were escorted through a side door, our luggage was taken care of and as we exited at the side of the airport there wasn't too many people around.

'It's Taemin!' I heard a scream from behind me. I turned to look as no less than 50 people started running after us.

'oh god' I groaned internally. I turned to the staff escorting us out to the car, 'Get us out of here quickly'.

'TAEMIN, TAEMIN' I could hear being screamed behind me as we made our way as fast as possible into a waiting car.

'HE'S WITH HER!' was the last thing I heard before the door closed behind me.

I turned to look at Jen 'Are you ok?' I asked her thanking god the car had blacked out windows I meaning I could cuddle her without anyone seeing us.

'Yeah I'm ok' she said but there was something in her voice telling me she didn't expect this.

'Is it going to be bad for us now?' She asked me quietly.

'It'll be fine. Don't worry, leave that to me.' I told her.

We were driven back to the company building an into the dorms. Waiting for us was Jonghyun who looked worried but happy to see us.

'YAH! What happened to you!' he exclaimed at Jen's arm.

'Oh I broke it punching Tae.' She joked with him.

He smiled as he pulled her into a hug. 'Don't make jokes like that sweetheart.' He mumbled to her.

He turned to look at me with worried eyes. 'Are you ok?' He asked me.

'Yeah just tired.' I told him. He looked at me deeply signalling he wanted to talk to me. I knew Jonghyun well and I knew there was a piece to this I was missing. He didn't want to tell me in front of Jen.

'Let's go to the studio I want to show you something.' He said suddenly. 'Will you be ok here sweetheart?' He asked Jen, who nodded at him mutely.

We left the dorm and entered the elevator before either of us spoke.

'So, what is it?' I asked.

'Not here, wait till were in the studio.' He said morosely.

We walked through the empty corridors to the studio he had been working in. It was empty and dark.

He flicked on a couple of lights illuminating the room dimly and sat down on one of the chairs. I followed suit and sat down next to him. He pulled out a familiar magazine and handed it to me.

'You needed to see this.' He said flicking through the pages until he found what he was looking for. He had stopped on a double page spread of me. Pictures of Jen from her social media accounts littered the pages.

'TAEMINS GIRLFRIEND REVEALED' read the headline.

I swallowed hard and looked at Jonghyun before I began reading.

Taemin it has been revealed this week has a new girlfriend. We have discovered who she is and where she's come from.

Her name is Jen** *******, and she comes from England. She is 28 years old and has been previously married. Seems she has a thing for Asian musicians. Her husband died in an accident less than two years ago and she's been living in Indonesia for over 7 years. Her husband it is revealed was also a musician before his untimely death. We ask ourselves though, OUR Taemin with a woman so much older who has been previously married? Is he crazy? We can reveal they have been together for several months though it is not yet confirmed. We theorise that SM will release a statement about the relationship shortly either confirming, or else denying the relationship.

I couldn't read anymore. My stomach was in my throat. I looked at Jonghyun who seemed to understand what I was feeling without needing words.

'This isn't the first one that's been published.' He said grimly. He continued without me stopping him.

'They all seem to know who she is and where she's from, some of them,' he swallowed hard, 'well some of them weren't kind about her.'

'Where are they?' I asked.

He showed me, webpage after webpage, article after article. They picked her apart, from her online presence to the way she dressed, to her past and they managed to get pictures of her from months ago that showed she was always with us. He was right they were not kind about her at all. Tears welled up in the back of my eyes threatening to spill over.

'She tough Taem, she won't let this affect her' Jonghyun said kindly, though I could tell he also had the same sick feeling about all of this I did. Jen and Jonghyun had developed a close relationship as the months passed.

I looked up at him lost for words. He was right of course, she was tough, and this wouldn't affect her the same way it would affect me.

'I'm worried about you though' he finished.

'I'll be ok.' I told him with as much confidence as I could. 'I have to show her these.' I told him getting up.

'Wait' he grabbed my arm, as I began to walk away. 'There's something else'.

'What?' I asked. He looked at the floor clearly uncomfortable. 'I wasn't sure, we weren't sure if we should show you.'

'Tell me Jong' I said.

He pulled out a letter, and unfolded it very carefully. When he laid it out and I could see what was written I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips.

YOU WILL DIE BITCH was written in capital letters, in what looked like blood.

'This isn't the first threat either' Jonghyun said sadly.

'How many are there?' I asked in barely a whisper.

'Hundreds'.
