Jinki and Key left the next morning, Crystal and I dropped them off. Key and Crystal were off in a coffee cafe in the airport talking through what happened the night before. Key seemed very remorseful about this words and actions and wanted a chance to get to know Crystal better. They both liked coffee, so I sent them off to grab coffee while Jinki and I watched Jasmine. We were in the waiting area, Jasmine was by the window, staring at the planes in fascination. Jinki was the first to break the silence.
“You think they're getting along well?” I shrugged, looking at Jinki.
“If they weren't I think Crystal would've been by here by now.”
“Minho, I'm truly sorry. I should've stepped in sooner and--”
“Hey don't worry about it. Crystal's a fighter, she was probably in as much shock as you were.”
“You really love her don't you?” His question caught me off guard and I had to sit and contemplate what to say.
“I do. What I feel for her is powerful...”
“Would you marry her?”
“I'm not sure...I have to date her first, but I want to take my time with her and truly get to know her...”
“Well...she seems really nice. Heart of gold on that girl.” I smiled at Jinki's observation. I nodded and looked at him.
“Do you think SM will sign her?” I asked, looking at Jinki and he nodded.
“Probably not, SM they're strictly in the Asian market, but Sony was looking at her...it seems very positive right now that they'll sign her, but there's all kinds of red-tape and such.”
“Of course.”
“What kind of music do you think we'll be doing when we get done with all this...” Jinki asked, his eyes meeting mine, and I shrugged.
“Probably Pop and Hip Hop...”
“Yeah you're probably right...two genres we are good at.”
“Nothing wrong with that.”
“I suppose not.” Jinki said, just then Crystal and Key showed up.
“Can you believe you can't bring outside beverages through security? I had to throw away my White Chocolate Mocha...”
“I told you Key.”
“Why didn't you listen to Crystal, you know America is weird about that and the size of bottles you're allowed...”
“Well I'm not trying to smuggle a bomb--”
“I wouldn't say that Key, seriously. Look at how the TSA agents are looking at you. They don't take stuff lightly. Be glad they didn't give you an enhanced pat-down or strip search you the way you were carrying on about your coffee...”
“They wouldn't dare...”
“Oh yes they would.”
“Ugh, Americans are so paranoid.”
“Well thanks to 9/11 we have to be that way. I don't like it as much as the next person, but we haven't had another incident since...”
“True.”
Flight 046 headed to Denver Colorado is now boarding...
“Oh that's us.” Jinki said gathering his carry on bag. Key did the same and they stood up simultaneously. Key went forward and embraced Crystal.
“We'll have to go shopping one of these days...” Jinki and I looked at each other, just realizing how well the planned worked. If Key wanted to go shopping with you, you were a part of his exclusive friendship club. He only went shopping with those who he trusted wholly.
“Did you hear that?” Jinki whispered in my ear. I nodded but didn't say anything as we watched the hug end and Key grab his carry on bag and looked at Jinki whom he just realized was gawking at the young man.
“What?” Jinki shook himself out of whatever disbelief he was in before turning to Crystal.
“N-nothing...Crystal, it was wonderful to get to know you. We had a great time...” Jinki said pulling Crystal into a one arm hug. Crystal reciprocated with a full hug of her own. Jinki pulled away and gave Crystal a smile before turning to me and give me a hug.
“Take care of her my dongsaeng...” Jinki whispered. “Take care Minho. See you when I see you...” Jinki finished in English, before scooping Jasmine up in his arms.
“High-Five?” Jinki asked, holding his hand up. Meanwhile Key came over to me, his eyes meeting mine.
“Okay Pabo, I gotta go. Take care of Crystal, if you don't Jinki and I will hunt you down and smack some sense into you. She has our numbers now.”
“Don't worry hyung, she'll be safe with me.” I said, my eyes meeting Key's and he smiled. He looked at Jasmine in Jinki's arms. “Bye Jasmine!” Jasmine, being shy, simply waved at Key.
“Bye...” Jasmine said, as Jinki let her down and she skipped to join her mother's side.
“Good. Well, this is goodbye for now, bye.” Key said, as he followed Jinki's lead and disappeared down the terminal.
“Bye guys! Come back soon!” Crystal said waving at the guys before they completely disappeared. I looked at Crystal putting my arm around the older woman. Jasmine ran over to the windows to watch the plane take off.
“Come on, Jasmine...” Crystal said.
“Mommy, can we watch the plane leave? Please?” Crystal looked and I shrugged.
“Why not?”
“Yes!” We stuck around until the plane had left the tarmac before leaving. My heart heavy. I missed everyone...only four more months...
-December 31st 2013 6:12pm CDT-
I went to Riddles Jewelry and bought a beautiful diamond necklace. Jinki and Key pitched in and wanted me to get Crystal something to confess my feelings to her. They both researched places for me to take her on New Years Eve and I settled on Ruby Tuesdays, and made a reservation for a corner table. I had told her to meet me there and that other people were going to be there from work. I technically lied to her but...it would be worth it.
Christmas was spent briefly together. We both had to work so we exchanged gifts. She gave me a ticket to a hockey game, since I had grown fond of hockey since being here and I gave her and Jasmine some SHINee memorabilia. According to Crystal's text today, Jasmine was super excited about the album I had given them and played it on repeat all night.
The necklace, which put me back a couple of grand, now in a nice box, I left the mall on my way to the restaurant. I stopped off at a nearby grocery store and bought a couple of red roses.
I had to hurry over to the restaurant. Once there, I checked into my reservation and was ushered to my table. I pulled out my phone to text Crystal.
Crystal, the table is reserved under my name.
Moments later my phone chimed.
Okay, have the others showed up yet? I'm almost there.
A smile erupted on my face and wondered what her reaction would be when she sees that I've fooled her.
No, I'm the only on here so far.
There wasn't another text from Crystal until she arrived. She was quickly ushered over to the table to see that it was a single table, with two chairs. One for me, and one for her.
“Hey Minho? What's the meaning of this? Where is everybody?”
“They're not coming. This is just for the two of us...a...date if you will...” I said getting up to help her into her seat. She smirked.
“Oh, Minho, you sneaky, sneaky man you...” She said, as she sat down. She looked impeccable. She was wearing a royal blue halter with black pants. She looked amazing. Her hair was beautifully styled I just wanted to kiss her right then and there. “I can't believe that you fooled me! Here I thought everyone was going to be here.”
I smiled and returned to my seat and pulled out the roses I had bought earlier and handed them to Crystal.
“These are for you...” Crystal smiled, and cooed out of excited. She lifted them to her nose and sniffed them.
“Mmm...oh my God, Minho. Thank you...they're beautiful.”
“Your welcome.”
Just then the same waitress who brought Crystal by asked for our drink order. In which Crystal ordered a cosmopolitan martini and I ordered a bottle of cabernet savignon. The waitress went to get our drinks and told us another waitress would be by to get our food orders.
We looked at the menus. Settling on an appetizer to share and entrees for each of us. When our food arrived, we ate over light conversation. With our food finished and dessert being put in take-away containers. I looked at Crystal and grabbed the jewelry box from my pocket.
“Crystal, I have something for you, but first I want to tell you, I love you. I am sure what I feel is love, there's no doubt in my mind. I just want to know...” I slowly opened the jewelry box to reveal the diamond and blue tanzanite pendant on a white gold chain. “Will you let me be your boyfriend?”
Shock was written all over Crystal's face. Her eyes studied the necklace. Her face then turned pink when she realized that the customers at the surrounding tables were now looking at her.
“Oh my God...yes Minho...this is the single most romantic thing anyone has done for me come here...” Crystal said as I got up and she pulled me into her embrace. Her lips met mine and we shared a passionate liplock. The customers oohed and awed, hooted and hollered. I pulled away just long enough to take the necklace out and put it around Crystal's neck. It was as stunning as I thought it would be and it matched her outfit.
“Oh my God, Minho this necklace is beautiful, how much did it cost you?”
“Don't worry about it, you're worth every penny...”
“God, I'm about to cry...” Crystal whispered her eyes meeting mine. I nodded wiping a tear away that had spill down her cheek. She pulled me toward her and we entered another passionate liplock. I pulled away and took my seat, my cheeks burning. She said yes, I was floating right now, my head was swimming and my heart threatening to explode.
Once our desserts came we stayed there, just enjoying each other's company. Crystal, held the wine glass up, finishing the last of the strong wine it held looked at me.
“So...did you want to come to my place and bring in the New Year with me? I bought some champagne and some snacks...we could watch TV...chill, cuddle...”
“Yeah that sounds nice...” I said, grabbing my dessert. We walked to our cars which weren't too far from each other. I felt drunk, but not from the alcohol, I felt intoxicated with Crystal's kisses.
I followed her to her place parking right next to her car in the parking lot. We walked to her apartment, once inside, I discarded my jacket and shoes by the door, Crystal did the same. I pulled her to me.
“Pinch me...is this real?” Crystal laughed and surprised me by goosing me. I jerked against her and she erupted in another fit of laughter.
“You tell me? I've been waiting for the day you'd ask me...”
“I wanted to make sure you were ready...I didn't want to rush you.”
“I know...” Crystal said wrapping her arms around my waist and snuggling into me. “That was the single most romantic thing anyone has done for me.”
“Seriously? Noone else has done this for you?” She shook her head, as her fingers played with the necklace I had given her.
“I thought at first, you were going to propose to me...I was like 'No Minho...don't do this, we're not in a relationship...'” I laughed.
“Oh no...I know that it's way too early for that...”
“I know, but that's what I thought at first...” Crystal said, pulled away from me and setting her desert on the counter before opening the fridge. “Want some champagne?”
“Sure.” I said looking at Crystal.
“I don't have any flutes or anything, will a plastic cup work?”
“Oh yeah, I'm not picky. What time is it?” I asked. Crystal glanced behind her to the digital clock on her stove.
“Twenty to eleven...” Just then my cell phone began vibrating in my pocket, so I pulled it out and glanced at the number. It was Key.
“Annyeong...”
“Annyeong Minho! Did you do it?” There was a ton of background noise and Key sounded drunk. I heard what sounded like Jonghyun in the background asking who Key was talking to. Key muttered my name and I heard Key yell at Jonghyun.
“Minho!!! How have you been!?!?! Did you get it in with that Crystal chick? Did you tap dat ass?”
“Jonghyun you're drunk...”
“So? It's New Years, you're point?”
“Jonghyun! You Pabo! Give me my phone right the fuck now...” I heard Key yell in the background amidst all the background noise.
“Put Key hyung back on the phone...”
“Aw fine. We'll talk later then. Happy New Years mother—HEY!”
“Aigoo! Sorry Minho, Jonghyun's drunk...”
“You don't sound too far away from him either hyung...”
“Well we all know I can handle my alcohol...so, how did things go tonight? Is it official?”
“It's official, she said yes.” He howled out, causing me to pull the phone away from my ear to avoid going deaf.
“Good Job Romeo...look, they're about to drop the ball in Times Square so...”
“Wait, you guys are in New York?”
“Yeah, someone had to be here to celebrate the New Year with our dongsaeng. Poor things been neglected...” I could hear Taemin protest in the background against whatever Key did. My heart felt heavy all of sudden. I didn't realize how much I missed talking to him, everything had been radio silence since his confession. I felt awful.
“I see. Tell Taemin Happy New Year from me...”
“We will, don't worry about that.”
“Okay, have fun.”
“You too...bye frog boy.”
“Bye 'Bummie.” I said, before disconnecting the phone call. I let out a breath and looked back up to see Crystal holding a plastic cup full of champagne.
“Was that the guys?”
“Yeah some of them. Key and Jonghyun flew to New York to spend New Years' with Taemin...”
“Aw, that's nice, at least Taemin will be able to spend it with someone...”
“Yeah, I miss him...I miss all of them. This is by far the hardest thing I think I've had to go through...” I said sitting down on the couch to sip on the champagne in my hand.
“Minho...when do you go back? When is your year up?”
“April 15th.”
“So...then I have less than 4 months with you.”
“Yeah, don't think about that way though...please...”
“We just get comfortable with each other and then you'll be flying back to wherever you'll be at with the rest of SHINee and I'll be alone.”
“No, I'll call you...what's that program you have on your computer...so you can video chat with multiple people?”
“Paltalk?”
“Yeah, can you show me how to use it? I'll see if I can get the other guys to make accounts so you'll have another way to contact us.”
“Sure.” Crystal said, turning on her computer and waiting for it boot up. She gave me a 20 minute crash course on the program. By the time she was done showing me everything the program had to offer, we were a half hour away from midnight. She glanced at me, and I realized I was staring at her.
“So, what did you wanna do?” I shrugged, licking my lips.
“I don't know. What did you wanna do?” I asked, shooting her question right back at her.
“Hm...well this is a predicament, isn't it?” Crystal asked, getting up off the chair and pouring herself another glass of champagne. “Want another?”
“Sure.” I said, handing her my cup and she poured the carbonated alcoholic drink inside. “We still have...” I glanced at her oven clock to gather the time. “...fifteen minutes until midnight, perhaps we could play a game or something...”
“Like what Choi Minho?” Crystal said in Korean. I was shocked hearing my mother language leave her lips. She had been paying attention after all.
“Hm...Strip Poker.”
“It's not fun with just two people though.” Crystal said, looking at me. “I mean come on, I know you want to see me naked...but all you have to do is ask me if you want to fuck.”
“I don't want to just fuck you. I wanna make love to you...cherish this...” I said pulling her to me and caressing her sides as my eyes drank in her features.
“Well, that's a noble cause and all and I'm gonna be blunt. If you kiss me, this will end with you no longer being a virgin...” Crystal said, drinking the rest of the champagne in her cup.
“Is that the alcohol talking or do you really mean it?”
“That's really me talking. I'm not drunk, I'm buzzed and horny as hell.”
“Are we seriously talking about sex right now?”
“Yes, you're the one who wanted to play strip poker. Besides, I don't have any condoms, and I'm not on any birth control.” Well shit, that put a huge damper on my night...I gathered my jacket, and the keys to my car. “Where are you going?”
“I'll be back.” I said, literally running out of Crystal's apartment. I was a man on a mission. I was going to lose my V-card tonight. Nothing was going to stop me....at least that's what I thought.
Getting to the gas station wasn't the hard part, I got the condoms, it was coming back that did me in.
See, it began to snow, very heavily. So heavily in fact that I couldn't see anything other than the end of the hood on my car. It very foggy, and very white. I reached for my cellphone to ask Crystal to come get me, but then I realized...
I left my cellphone on Crystal's counter.
“No...” I pulled off the road and began my frantic search through all my pockets in hopes I was mistaken. “No! NO!” I said as I began spewing curses in Korean and every other language I knew searching through my middle cubby and emptying out my glove box. No cellphone to be found “FUCK! NO NO NO!!!”
I put everything back together and took a deep breath collecting myself. I put the car into drive and carefully made my way back to the gas station. I parked the car in the well lighted parking lot.
“Hey, did you get stuck in that freak snow-storm...that shit's crazy...”
“Yeah, hey, can I use your phone? I need to call my girlfriend.”
“Oh, we're you trying to score with her tonight?” I nodded, feeling so disappointed in myself. "Don't be so down man, we've all been there...what's the number?” I quoted off Crystal's number and upon dialing it he handed the handset to me and I heard the ringing I had grown accustomed to.
“Hello?” I heard Crystal say.
“Crystal, it's me...I got stuck in the snow-storm...”
“I figured you did. I'll come get you, you're at the Superpumper, right?”
“Yeah, I'm sorry.”
“Don't worry about it, I'll be there in ten.” Crystal hung up her phone as a smile made its way on my face uncontrollably. I handed the attendant the phone back.
“She coming to get you?” He asked. He was a blonde guy, probably around my age with a ton of piercings and a hole in each ear. I nodded.
“Yep, the night may not be over yet.”
“Well I wish you luck.” The guy said, looking at me with a suspicious look. “Hey, you look nervous...you kind of remind me of myself when I was about to lose my virginity...” I swallowed.
“Is it that noticeable?” I whispered in a low tone.
“Yeah, it also doesn't take nearly ten minutes to choose what type of condom to use...is the girl your gonna be banging a virgin too?” I shook my head. Why was this guy giving me advice? It seemed so...strange.
“Good. Look, just follow her lead, she knows what feels good for her and she knows what will feel good to you. Go with the flow...don't be scared, it has to happen soon or later. You'll hit it out of the park, if you two love each other, this will only bring you closer.”
“Uh...thanks...” I said, awkwardly.
“No problem...I think your ride's here. Go get her tiger.” The guy said, winking as I walked out of the gas station. Crystal got out of her car, and looked at me.
“Damn it's coming down out here...I'm gonna run inside and grab some pop, you want anything?”
“No. I'll wait out in my car for you.” I felt a tug on my jacket and I turned to see Crystal looking up at me her hand grasping my arm.
“Minho, we don't have to do anything tonight. If you're not comfortable with it. We can wait.” Crystal said, looking up at me. With my other arm, I pulled her to me, snow was getting in our hair, on our jackets, it was still coming down pretty heavily.
“I want to. I want to take that next step.” Our eyes met, and I leaned down and kissed Crystal's lips tenderly, my tongue tracing her lip. She opened her mouth and deepened our kiss. I pulled away from her. “Now hurry up.” I said, smacking Crystal's ass as she ran inside the gas station. Meanwhile I got into my car and turned on the radio, listening to the music. She was chatting with the gas station attendant and bought her drink. I watched her make her way to her car and she started it up. She put the car in reverse and backed out. I waited for her to pass before putting my own vehicle in reverse and backing out of the parking spot. I carefully followed her back to her place. Finally pulling into her parking lot, I found a space right next to her and parked my car there. Crystal got out of her car, pepsi in hand and waited for me. I grabbed the bag that contained the condoms and turned my car off and got out. I caught up to her and put my arm around her. I couldn't quell my excitement.
We disappeared into the apartment complex. Knowing the the next time I left, I would be a man.
