It's Always Been You

Face your fears.

So i guess i put on this swimsuit for nothing i laughed to myself while i took off the quickdry shorts and  changed into my denim shorts and my dark blue DC shirt. I didn't even bother changing into regular undergarments, so i just wore my bikini under. I walked out of the bathroom and saw him fully dressed and watching a rerun of "Friends" on TV. He was wearing a black t-shirt under a black leather jacket, dark grey jeans, and his Classic Nike shoes.

" It's about time!" he chuckled, turning to me. He wondered his eyes all over me, " Do you like Japanese?" 

" Love. why?" i asked walking over to the bed and sitting next to him.

" Ooohhh, you know. Just wondering." he smiled, staring at the tv.

After watching the episode when Rachel goes to London to tell Ross that she loves him, James got up and took my hand. I got up from the bed and he guided me out the door. "Uhh, so where are we going?" I asked.

" There's this place down south of the city and i just wanted to take you there." he smiled but not looking at me.

"L-l-like on a-a a date??" I just had to ask. 

" Yea. Yea, a date." his smile grew bigger, revealing those dimples.

My stomach felt all tingly and the surface of my arms turned into braille by the goosebumps that rose. I just couldn't stop smiling. a date!! An actual DATE!!!!!

On the elevator ride down to the lobby, we held hands in a comfortable silence. He kissed my forehead right when the elevator doors opened. We walked out the front double doors that had an S inscripted on it that stand for sheraton. 

"How do you suppose we get there??" i asked him.

" Wanna walk?" he teased.

" No. I'm too lazy." i said

" Then we're taking the trollie." he pointed at the long line of tourists.

We waited for what seemed like forever for the trollie, so we sat down on the floor and this little Korean boy walks up to us and tosses a ball. I personally thought that it was the cutest thing ever. He kept eyeballing the man behind us playing the guitar. By the look in his eyes, i could tell that he really wanted to play it. So i went up to the man and asked him if i could play it for a bit.

The man gave me the guitar and sat down next to the little boy, who happened to have this cute smile on his face. I strummed the easiest note i know, which is the E minor. i passed it on to him and he catched on very quick. I was amazed! so i tried something more advanced. I played that note and picked the strings. I gave it to him and he did the same! He looked six or seven! i didn't learn guitar until i was eleven! So we just played along, mimicking eachother's guitar playing and he catched on pretty quickly! i knew he was a musical prodigy or something.

All the tourists' eyes were on us and they all smiled, including James. What can i say? i loved kids! even though i was one myself. I asked the little boy his name. His name was Sungha. 

"Sungha Jung." he pointed to himself. 

I knew he was going to be doing some great things. After giving him a hug, the trollie came. I was really going to miss this little boy. I'm telling you, he was extraordinary.

"Hey we better go before the trollie leaves us." James smiles.

"Oh ok. Let's go." Little Sungha grabbed my hand as he pulled me to his parents and I hear James laughing as he follows behind me. 

When Sungha meets up with his parents, he lets go of my hand and waves back at me. I waved back as i got onto the trollie. James and I sat on the bench that faced out of the side of the trollie. James just smiled at me.
