SHINEE's dream girl

Chapter Thirty-six

  It's been a week since Minho left. Most of the time we've been restricted to the dorm, but today the boys have to make a special appearance at a popular celebrity gag show. Its my first time seeing a live show from the studio. Manager Hyung made sure I got a front row seat.

Taemin smiles and waves at me from the dressing room. I blush profusely and wave back.

Onew appears by my side with a chicken leg in his hand.

"How is it that you always manage to have a piece of chicken in your hands" I say shocked.

"Onew has his ways" he says and smiles from ear to ear.

"Stop eating, your getting crumbs on your shirt" I pat the crumbs off his face and shirt and take the chicken leg while he pouts.

"The Show's about to start, go, go!" I give him a push and he laughs.

I always wonder how he manages to stay so fit even when he eats more than a lumberjack. I gain five pounds just by thinking about a chicken leg.

Since the show is about to start I head over to my seat. A designated person stands in the corner holding the signs that tell the audience when to laugh and clap and when to "Oooooooo" when the host says something juicy. Currently the sign says Silence.

The lights go off on the audience and the stage light turn on. Apparently the show is all about exposing pop-stars and their secrets, also daring them to do crazy random things.

I put my hands on my lap and fidget with the rim of my shirt. I hope that they don't ask Taemin anything about me, although I trust Taemin, I also know that he doesn't lie.

Fun upbeat music suddenly blasts and we are told to clap. I feel like a little girl clapping with such excitement. A round man runs out with a huge smile plastered on his face and waves to the crowd.

"Welcome! Welcome!" He laughs from the bottom of his stomach.

"Well I sure know why all of you are here!" He says and points at the crowd. And then with a mischievous grin he makes a sexy pose "you're here to see sexy me of course!"

The crowd explodes with laughter and he pretends to be hurt.

"Yes, yes, I know I'm not anywhere near as handsome as today's guests. So why don't we give them a round of applause!"

We all clap and holler as the boys run on stage waving at the crowd and smiling. The host greets them all with enthusiastic hugs. The boys bow and introduce themselves as shinning SHINee. The crowd goes wild as Jonghyun does his famous wink.

I laugh and roll my eyes, if only they knew how loudly he chews or how he picks at his wedgies constantly.

The boys sit on the floor mats next to the host who proceeds to ask them basic questions about the life of a star.

The expert leader Onew responds "The biggest blessing has obviously been the support of all of our fans, without them we wouldn't have been able to get this far" he sends a cute smile towards the crowd and the girls go ballistic.

" OK ,OK settle down" the host tells us. We are all silenced.

"Now, I'm sure you're all aware that the fans are dying to know your ideal girl. What is your type?"

Jonghyun goes for the sweet confident type, Onew simply wants one who can cook well, Key wants a fashion diva who can shop with him all the time and massage him. When he says that last part, the crowd giggles.

I once again laugh to myself knowing that the image of massaging Key in they're mind is way different from reality. When I massage him, he's usually sprawled out on the couch drooling on the pillows. Not very appealing or romantic.

When it's Taemin's turn I start to fidget with my hands again. Will he describe me? Do I want him to describe me? I look down at my lap nervously.

"My ideal girl......is one who sees her beauty where others see fault. Someone who is kind but isn't trampled by others"

As he says these words I begin to sink into my seat. That doesn't sound like me at all. What's his deal then? Why does he act like he likes me if I'm not even his type?

"Some may say I have a lot of expectations for my ideal girl, but in truth I just wish for her to value herself as much as I do" Taemin finishes.

The crowd "Ooooooooo's" but I don't bother.

"That's quite touching Taemin" the host says "I hope you are all able to find that ideal girl"

The boys smile and look at one another, and as if in unison they say the unexpected.

" We already found her"

The crowd gasps and the host is taken back.

What are they doing?!
