A twist of fate [KIM KIBUM & KIM JONGHYUN // SHINEE]

Chapter Five : Progression

The following day we were to attend a fan meeting right in the centre of Seoul. I couldn't deny that I was internally leaping about with inexpressible happiness that I'd be able to see our beloved fans. We called them Shawol's (don't ask why, it just seemed like a cute name).
Lunging into the rain of warm water, I shook myself about to try and ease my eagerness of the day ahead. How much I loved the interaction with our fans, I found it a nice way to communicate with those who have ordinary lives. Sometimes I wished I could return to that ordinary life, where you didn't have to put up a certain image of yourself to impress others...
Concluding my thoughts I was ready to step out of the shower. Just as I swung the curtain open, the door also creaked as someone entered. Standing there with a rigid stance and an appalled expression, I pointed at the Dino who had rudely entered.
"What are you doing in here?!" I screeched at Jonghyun, who also looked quite surprised.
"I—I didn't know anyone was using the bathroom," he mused quietly.
"Do you not have ears? Could you not hear that the shower was running before you ruthlessly entered?!" I was still yelling and stamping my feet, covering myself with the curtain (not like that did much).
"Look I'm sorry," Jonghyun chuckled, a pleased sort of smile forming. I could tell that his eyes were peering below my torso that was still hid behind the curtain, and an uncomfortable emotion of lust filled his eyes.
"What are you looking at you pervert, how dare y—" whilst stamping my feet I found that my foot glided against the wet surface of the shower floor, resulting in me falling to the ground...
Or so I thought.
Squeezing my eyes shut I felt a strong pair of arms wrap around my waist, preventing me from helplessly falling to the floor. As I opened my eyes, Jonghyun's face was inches from mine, his eyes searching mine. For some reason an explosion of butterflies was felt in my stomach, and I was almost lost in the dreaminess of Jonghyun's eyes.
My what puppy like eyes he had...
Suddenly, Nicole's face flashed in my mind and I snapped out of it. Wanting to push Jonghyun away, it only concluded in me falling on top of him as he kept a strong grip around me. I let out a squeak when we both hit the hard surface.
Oh my goodness... my naked body... has come in contact with the Dino!
"J—Jonghyun can you please let me go now?" I squeaked.
"Aw is Kibummie shy?" He cooed, his hands trailing down my bare... wet... back.
"I—I told you not to call me that!" I exclaimed, struggling against his strength, "please just let me put a towel on!"
"There's no use, I've already seen everything," he retorted, a smirk breaking from his lips.
"Aish, you!" I growled, pounding his chest, before scurrying away and wrapping a towel around me, "please wait outside while I at least put some god damn pants on!"
"Okay Key Eomma!" Jonghyun chorused, a wide smile plastered across his mouth as he skipped out of the bathroom.
"That was utterly embarrassing!" I hissed to myself, clutching my hair, "how will I be able to pay attention at the fan meeting now?! Especially knowing that the stupid Dino has seen everything!"
Feeling hot and flustered, I towel dried my hair and slipped my boxers on. Peeking out of the bathroom, I made sure no one was in sight before stumbling to my room.
"Ya, Kibum-ah!" Jinki's voice startled me, making me yelp drastically.
"Ah—err— yes?" I stuttered.
"We have to be off in half an hour, tell Jong to get ready!" Jinki gave me a perplexed expression before walking away. I breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking to my room, only to be met by Jonghyun himself.
"What are you doing in my room?!" I exclaimed, feeling an immense blush crawl up my cheeks.
"Waiting for you to get out of the shower," he stated bluntly, marvellously acting as if nothing had happened about ten minutes ago.
"There is a thing called YOUR PERSONAL ROOM!" I yelled, making Jonghyun jump in his place.
"Okay, okay I'm leaving," he said standing up. As he was walking towards me, his hand brushed over my 'area' before he departed the room, leaving me standing there with a...
DID HE JUST GIVE ME A BONER?!

We were all escorted into the van before heading to our destination. Throughout the journey I was receiving messages from Nicole, which made me feel less nervous from my previous experience...
Not to mention the occasional glance Jonghyun gave me, a suggestion of mockery flaring in his iris which got me riled up. All I did was shoot lasers back at him, which was successful in making him quieten down.
We soon arrived and the shouts and screams from our fans were heard very distinctly. If I'm being honest my insides were trembling. For some reason I always felt nervous when it came to fan meetings because being face to face with ordinary people made me feel somewhat out of place.
As soon as we stepped out of the van, instant herds of girls and boys rushed towards us, pictures being taken, yells and squeals coming from all sorts of directions. We all had to be carefully manoeuvred through the crowd in attempt of not being crushed to death.
"You seem a little worried," I heard someone whisper in my ear. I turned and noticed it was in fact Jonghyun.
"I'm not worried! What are you talking about?" I retorted defensively, earning a chuckle from the (slightly) smaller one. All he did was smile before we entered the building

The fan meeting wasn't as nerve wracking as I thought it was, yet it was extremely tiring, so I was ready for a lie in the next day. Nicole had already gone to bed so I was pretty much left to my own devices. We were just packing and bagging things up when Jonghyun came and started helping me escort the bags to our van.
"It's okay I can do this by myself," I heaved, picking a bag up, struggling immensely.
"You're clearly struggling, come on weakling let me help," he insisted, about to tear the bag from my grip.
"No absolutely not! How dare you call me weak!" I screeched, attempting to tug the bag back off him. Instead it ended up with him dragging me on top of himself as he fell to the ground, bags scattering around us. All I could do was stare into his eyes which were intensely close to mine, my heart beating extremely fast. He held a smirk which made something tingle in a place it shouldn't...
"What are you guys doing?!"

A/N : Hi guys! Sorry I've not been active for absolutely AGES! I was struggling to decide whether I should carry on with this fan fiction, and in the end I decided I wanted to do it in memory of Jonghyun as he'll always be remembered in Kpop history! Much love my readers!
