"Mm...Taemin, shit...we gotta stop..." I said, as Taemin attacked my sensitive neck with kisses while grinding his pelvis against me, pinning me against the bathroom stall. I was getting really turned on. The mischievous maknae followed me into the bathroom during our lunch break. "They're going to wonder where you are." I managed to mutter out.
"Kiss me noona. I've missed you..." Taemin whined so I pulled him toward me, making our lips meet in a heated lip lock that ended with Taemin biting my lip. Jonghyun must have told him that biting my lip was a huge turn on for me. I pushed Taemin away from me, only to have him pin me against the stall again with more force than before and my head knocked against the stall wall.
"Taemin!" I shoved him away from me again, this time with more force to show him I was serious. "Go. Otherwise I'm going to do something I'll regret."
"You won't regret it noona...I promise." As Taemin leaned forward to kiss me again but I turned my head away. He backed away from me shocked like I had just slapped him across the face. I made eye contact with him.
"Taemin I'm serious. Stop."
"O-okay. I'll see you later." Taemin muttered angrily as he finally let himself out of the stall and stomped his way out of the bathroom, with a noticeable tent in his jeans. I exited the stall as well, stepping in front of a mirror and setting my purse down. I grabbed my tube of lipstick out of my purse and reapplied it on my lips before smoothing my tousled hair with my hand.
This was a dangerous game I was playing. I knew it, and I couldn't stop it. I was really trying to keep my distance. I couldn't stop the guys from following me around like lost puppies, pouncing on any chance to get me alone to sneak kisses, and illicit touches. It was only going to get harder over the next few weeks to avoid them as the video shoots were only going to get more provocative and the sets smaller and more confined.
I went back outside, and I was called over to begin shooting the jump scene, where I jump down the forty foot drop from the entrance. I nodded in acknowledgement and walked over to where the stunt coordinators set me up with a harness that connected to a pulley system. This would be fun to do in heels. After six takes recording with different cameras and different angles, it was time for the explosion scene and that was the end of our part of the shoot.
All good things must come to an end as they say. We were back at the ranch before 4pm where I was finally able to go horseback riding with Minho. We opted for the wine picnic option. We sat under the shade of a large tree by the river about a mile or so from the ranch drinking wine, eating cheese and crackers, and some sandwiches. It was great and relaxing.

It was a little after 6pm when Minho and I arrived back at the ranch, Jonghyun was the first to see us and said we were all called for a meeting. Jonghyun walked with us down to the office. We walked inside the business room they had to see Jin and Melody waiting.
"Hey Jin, Mel, where's everyone at?" I asked as I walked in and noticed it was just the three of us so far.
"They're on their way. Here, your itineraries for the next week." Melody said as she handed us three folders with our names on them. I glanced at mine before peeking at Minho's and Jonghyun's. Theirs were similar to mine. We would be shooting our video for "Slower". The shoots after this were going to be very hard for me to do. Part of me was excited, the other, wasn't. I knew the sexual tension between all of us in the group would only grow. More pent up tension equaled more competition between the guys which also upped the opportunity for tempers to flare. It was the last thing any of us needed.
I read over my itinerary just as the other guys came in and picked up their itineraries, greeting everyone as they did so. Jin and Melody gave us about five minutes to read over everything before launching into the meeting. We would get a preliminary viewing of the music video for Heat on August 28th, which was when all the editing was to be finished. We all had a check to make sure we had our plane tickets. Then we launched into the schedule. Once we would get back to New York we would have some free time before production started for Slower on July 28th. We were told to take the time to rest, relax and enjoy having a couple of days off.
The meeting concluded as we had the rest of the evening to do what we wanted to do. We decided as a group to make the last night at the ranch one to remember so I convinced Melody to take me into town to pick up some alcohol. Among the items I picked up a 24 pack of Bud Light, a liter of Jack Daniels, a liter of Fireball, and a bottle of Patron. Melody picked up a bottle of Ciroc for herself. Melody and I got back to the ranch with the alcohol and Jin had joined the guys, who managed to procure some beers already.

"Noonas! Let me take these..." Taemin said, as he grabbed the 24 pack from me.
"And I'll grab these from you ladies...go get into your bathing suits, we're going to have a pool party!" Jinki said, as he grabbed the remaining bags in our hands as Melody and I looked at each other and shrugged. Melody went back to our suite and changed into our swim wear before joining the guys by the pool. Jonghyun had brought out his laptop and portable speakers and started to play music.
Taemin came over with drinks for the both of us. I looked down at the red solo cup and gave it a sniff, and it smelled strongly of alcohol. I looked up at him and our eyes met.
"Taemin what is this? Did you mix all the alcohol together?"
"Maybe...drink up noonas." Taemin said as he waited for Melody and I to drink what was in our cups. I shrugged before saying a Korean salute and chugging as much of the liquid down as I could the alcohol burning down the back of my throat and burning its way down my esophagus. Fuck, this was going to bite me in the ass later, I already knew it.
Melody followed my lead and chugged her drink down, and she struggled greatly with it. I was done with my cup, I gave myself a moment to recover before Jonghyun came over with a beer for me which I gratefully took. Drinking the Stella Artois beer, Jonghyun grabbed my empty cup and proceeded to mix me a cocktail. I suddenly got struck by inspiration.
"Ooh, Jonghyun, you should make Melody a cocktail...I think she'd like it." I said, taking the cocktail that Jonghyun handed to me as I side-eyed Melody who mouthed 'What are you doing?' toward me. I shrugged feeling a mischievous smirk curl my face.

"Uh sure..." His eyes met Melody's as he gave his signature smile. "What do you want Melody?" Melody blushed deeply and muttered the name of her cocktail and Jonghyun couldn't hear her so he asked her to repeat the name of the cocktail again and she said it a little louder. I leaned into Jonghyun's ear and told him to make her a ciroc and sprite and that Melody really liked him.
"I'm gonna leave you kids to it...I've gotta boyfriend to mingle with..." And I got up with my beer and freshly made cocktail and walked over to the pool's edge where Minho was swimming and sat on the pools edge and soaked my legs up to my knees in the pool water. Minho swam up to me and grabbed my beer before chugging half of it.
"Jeez, thirsty much?"
"Parched actually...what did Jonghyun make you?"
"Jack and coke...want some?"
"Yeah actually...you don't mi--"
"Drink up. It'll make shit more interesting later..."
"What do you mean by that?" Minho asked, raising an eyebrow at me. I nodded my head toward Jonghyun and Melody now engrossed in conversation. "Oh...wait...isn't Melody married?"
"Sh...yeah, but I figured I'd let them at least talk and get to know each other and if they do other things..."
"Crystal, you're bad."
"No I'm not. Melody's a grown woman capable of making her own decisions. I just opened the avenue for them to have a conversation, that's all."
"You know Jonghyun's probably going to fuck her, right?" Minho said going to taking another drink of my cocktail but I grabbed it from him and drank half of it before handing it back to him. "Rude..."
"My cocktail bitch, besides, Jonghyun is capable of keeping it in his pants..."
"And you know this how?"
"You've seen the grinding scene that I have with Jonghyun for Slower...I'm dry humping the hell of out him...come on, do I really need to explain myself further?" Minho's frowned as he saw that I had a point.
"No. I suppose not." Minho said, downing the rest of my cocktail. He glanced down to see my beer was also nearly gone. "Do you want anymore alcohol?"
"Yeah, I bought some solo shot cups. We should all do some shots of tequila."
"Let's do it." Minho said as he pulled himself out of the water and we went over to the table where all the alcohol was. Taemin followed us over.
"Hyung, what are you doing?"
"Shots, call the other hyungs over Taeminnie will you?" Just then manager Jin announced he was turning in for the night. It was only a little past ten and for some reason I felt a rush of relief wash over me when he did, even though he barely said anything all night, he managed to creep me out with his stares and his need to try and 'accidentally' touch me. I played it off, but deep down something about it didn't feel right.

*3 Shots of Patron and two beers later...*

"Aish! I'm changing the music...I swear I hear another slow song I'm going to throw Jonghyun's laptop into the pool..." Taemin said, as Key helped him disconnect Jonghyun's laptop from his speakers. "Crystal-noona, you probably have a lot of good music, why don't you hook your phone up to the speakers. I want to dance..."
"Uh--sure." I said, opening the music app on my phone and opened my work-out playlist which consisted of a lot of upbeat music before handing it to Taemin.
"Where is Jonghyun? He just abandoned us..." Jinki asked, as he began pouring the last of the Patron in our empty solo shot cups.
"He's probably getting laid, Crystal thought it was a bright idea to hook him and Melody up..."
"Minho! I didn't hook anyone up! Fuck, get your fucking facts straight before you go spewing shit you know nothing about!"
"Oh, and who knows Jonghyun better? I've been with the guy for over eight years, I think I know Jonghyun a bit better than you." Minho spat back. Key, Taemin and Jinki were kind of frozen in place their jaws slightly agape in uncertainty.
"Wanna bet?"
"Yeah, it's on...winner chooses the punishment."
"You're on."
We set out to find where Melody and Jonghyun had gone off to.

Sure enough, Jonghyun was with Melody all right, holding her hair out of her face as she wretched into the toilet in the suite we shared together from all the alcohol she drank. Feeling horrible for her predicament, I took over for Jonghyun and told him to punish Minho for me for losing the bet to me.
He forced Minho to finish what was left of the Fireball whiskey which was a little less than half the bottle. I sat with Melody for a half hour until I was sure we was in safe and sound asleep before joining the guys again. I was welcomed back with a shot of Jack Daniels by Jonghyun while Minho was sulking from losing the bet he made with me, and was choking down the bottle of fireball one mouthful at a time. I walked over to him and grabbed the bottle out of his hand before chugging down what was left of it which turned out to be about three mouthfuls before handing him an empty bottle.
"Noona, you're going to be so hung-over tomorrow." I shrugged at Jinki.
"I don't get to do this often, let me have my night...I'll deal with whatever hang-over I have tomorrow." Just then Manicure by Lady Gaga came on and I started to dance.
The night went on, we swam, played water volley ball, and eventually we were all kicked out of the pool for being too loud...but not wanting to have our night end like that, all clad in our swim apparel, we packed what was remaining of the beer and went for a walk and I ended up being led around the ranch since my motor skills were deteriorating with every passing moment. We found a secluded opened area and I fell to the ground, catching myself on my hands and knees before I managed to flip onto my back and stared at the sky. The guys joined me as we gazed at the stars. That was when the alcohol really hit me hard.
"Guyths...I'm durnk."
Key busted out laughing followed by Jinki then Jonghyun, Minho and Taemin followed in the chorus. "What?"
"I...canseeestra...strai...damn it..." This caused more rounds of laughter before Taemin started hiccupping.
"Shit...think Taemin's gone too."
"I'm not far behind either..."
"I know right? Best fucking night EVER---!" Jinki screamed out into the open night air.
"Jinki...sh..." I said, clamping my hand down on his mouth a little too late. "You'll wake evryoneup..."
"I'mso...so...drurnk rinow..." Minho slurred and I busted out laughing. Just then Jinki tried to brush the sand out of my hair. I think out of all of us, he was probably the most sober. I closed my eyes to stop sky from spinning so much and the next time I opened my eyes, I was waking up under cozy blankets and in a bed with Minho snoring peacefully beside me.
I had no recollection of how I got there or how I ended up with a robe over me. My bathing suit from the night before was still on and didn't looked like it was tampered with, but how did I end up on a queen bed with Minho...
"Minho...babe...wake up..."
"Mm...what?"
"How did I get here?"
"Mm...what do you mean?"
"The last thing I remember is closing my eyes...the next thing I'm here waking up beside you..."
"I don't know..."
"Good Morning, you two." Key said, carrying a tray of food into our room. "I come bearing gifts."
"Oh my God, Key you're the best..." I said, as I sat in the bed, nudging at Minho to get up with me. "What happened last night?"
"Well, you passed out drunk so did Minho. Jinki, carried you back while Jjong and I grabbed Minho and we gave the two of you Jinki's bed."
"Who put the robe on me?"
"Oh, that was me, hopefully you didn't mind Minho...I didn't touch your girlfriend, I promise." Key said as he sat the tray down on a table at the foot of the bed before grabbing a bottle of pills off of it and popping it open.
"Here, take these, you'll need them for what I'm about to do next."
"Huh?" I said as Key dropped two Advil in my hand and did the same to Minho before handing us both a glass of orange juice. I quickly took the pills before Key opened the blinds effectively causing me to groan in agony as the bright sunlight hit my eyes causing a ricocheting painful chain reaction to occur. "Holy fucking shit that's way too bright..."
"Argh!" Minho yelled as he put his hand up to shield his eyes from the intrusion of light.
"Sorry guys..." Key said, as he walked back over to us. "Here Crystal, take this, you'll feel right as rain in the desert after it kicks in." Key said, holding out his hand with a large red smooth cylinder horse pill. I looked down at it.
"What is it?"
"Red Ginseng, various vitamins and other stuff to help fight a hangover..."
"Oh, is that why you're not hung-over this morning Kibum..."
"Part of it. I also didn't drink as much as either of you last night."
"Do you have another?" Minho asked, putting his head in his hands in pain.
"Aw...sorry Minho, I'm giving Crystal my last one...I think Jinki might have some more, perhaps you should get up and ask him..."
"Ugh, I knew you would say that...fine." Minho said turning his body and getting up off the bed. He grabbed the orange juice and downed it really quick before leaving the room. Key sat down on the bed and handed me a bowl full of various cuts of fruit and a fork. The sunlight really brought out his cheek bones.
His eyes met mine. "How are you feeling?"
"Hung-over...but I should be feeling better here in a few, I can feel the Advil already kick in..." I said, stabbing the fork into a chunk of fresh pineapple before devouring it voraciously. "Have you checked on Melody?"
"She very much hung-over, we saw her this morning while grabbing breakfast...she looked pretty pale. She asked about you..."
"What'd you say?" I said, my mouth full of a succulent piece of strawberry.
"You were with us, safe and sound." He said, his eyes meeting mine. "I just gotta say, you look like shit..."Key remarked, being blunt. I nearly choked on my strawberry.
"Thanks fucker, are you trying to kill me right now?" I said, as I coughed the stray seeds that lodged themselves in the back of my throat while flipping him off. "Anyways, did she say anything?"
"No, her and Jonghyun disappeared off somewhere."
"Figures..." I said shoving a piece of honeydew in my throat. "God this fruit is good. Wow. Did you want some?"
"Yeah," Key said as he picked off a piece of cantaloupe but I could tell he didn't eat.
"Have you eaten?"
"No..."
"Key, you need to take care of yourself too! Eat! I'll go grab something...seriously...I'm about to put my foot up your ass." I said, finally getting up off the bed and putting the now empty bowl back on the tray Key carried in earlier. I then grabbed Key by his shoulders and forced him to sit down on the bed before handing one of the full plates of food to him. "Eat, you may be an asshole sometimes, but I'd rather you be a healthy asshole than an unhealthy one." Key let out a laugh as he set the food on the bed and both his hands darted between the fabric of my robe before landing on my hips.
"Are you leaving? You better give me a kiss. I think I deserve that much." I smile and lean down and let my lips touch his in a chaste kiss.
"Thank you Key. Now I'm gonna go take a shower...you don't mind if I take the robe with me do you?" Key shook his head.
"No, it's your boyfriend's anyways. Go shower. We'll meet you when our van gets here."
"Shit, when's our flight again?"
"1pm...it's only a little after 8 now, you got enough time to shower and pack before we have to check out."
"Okay." I said finally stepping out of Jinki's room and out of earshot of Key. "Now, to only get out of here without anyone else molesting me." I mumbled to myself before leaving the bedroom.
"Crystal-noona! You're awake...how do you feel?" Taemin asked, catching me as I walked out of Jinki's room. I jumped as I held a hand over my chest
"Jesus. Way to scare me...I'm hung-over sadly. I'm about to head back to my suite and take a shower before packing."
"Yeah me too...I'm hung-over from last night too. My head is pounding...did you need some pain meds or anything? I was just about to grab some Advil..."
"No, Key just gave me some. Thank you though Taemin, that's really thoughtful of you." I said, squeezing the younger man's upper arm. He smiled cheekily before leaning forward and touching my lips with his own before pulling away. My breath hitched in my chest as he pulled away.
"I'll talk you later noona." Taemin finished, as he disappeared into his room.
"Y-yeah." I said as I then left the hacienda. I went to the suite I shared with Melody only to find a towel on the door. Holy shit, she really did go through with it, didn't she. I suddenly found myself suddenly jealous. I leaned my ear against the door to see if I could hear anything, but I couldn't so I turned around and started to walk away when the door was pulled open and I turned around to see Jonghyun. He was topless, clad in only a pair of dark washed ripped jeans. His hair was wet, and he still had evidence of his shower present on his exposed skin. I licked my lips as my eyes soaked in every inch exposed skin.
"Oh, hey Crystal-noona. This is...really embarrassing."
"No need to be embarrassed Jonghyun. Can I come in?" I asked clutching the robe closer to myself as I could see Jonghyun analyze my body.
"Oh sure...it's your suite, Melody's just stepped in the shower. I'm just trying to find my shirt." Jonghyun said, smiling meekly as he started to search the room for his shirt. "So, uh, how are you feeling?"
"Obviously not as good as you..." I said as opened my drawer to grab a fresh change of clothes. "...how long has Melody been in the shower?" I said grabbing my brush off the dresser and quickly running it through my hair.
"Um...not long...maybe a couple of minutes before you got here."
"I see...well Melody takes forever in the shower and I'm starving, have you eaten?" I asked, kind of annoyed with Jonghyun suddenly.
"No...uh...I was going to when Melody and I just...um..."
"Was she good?" I then clamped a hand over my mouth just as I saw what I thought was Jonghyun's shirt rumpled on the floor next to the fridge.
"Excuse me?"
"Nevermind." I said as I walked over to where Jonghyun's shirt was and picked it up before handing it to Jonghyun. "Your shirt. Let's go eat."
"Okay noona...let me leave Melody a note reall--"
"Fine, what-the-fuck-ever. I'll go alone." I said, suddenly feeling impatient and storming out of the suite by myself and letting the door slam on my way out. I then realized that I was pissed, I was acting like I had found Minho cheating on me with Melody. Fuck I needed to get a grip.
"Crystal-noona...wait up..." I just kept walking, ignoring the man and gripping my robe closer to my body. I just kept up my pace and eventually Jonghyun caught up with me. "God-damn it, you can walk fast for a short girl." I glared at him and Jonghyun saw my glare and reached out to grab my arm but I turned away from him again.
"Don't fucking touch me Jonghyun." Suddenly he busted out laughing.
"Holy shit...you're jealous." I raised my eyebrow at him, and turned away from him again leaving him to his fits of laughter.
"Fuck off Jonghyun." I muttered before walking into the main office where the staff was just starting to put away the food. I quickly made my way over and grabbed some scrambled eggs, a few slices of thick bacon, a banana and a bran muffin before getting some fresh squeezed orange juice. I grabbed the booth away from the windows and in the corner. Jonghyun wasn't too far behind me and upon grabbing some eggs, a biscuit, the last of the sausage links and some fruit he sat across me.
"You are so moody today..." Jonghyun said then I realized I forgot to grab some coffee. I got up and grabbed my coffee with the normal five packets of sugar and two containers of cream. I fixed up my coffee the way I liked it, and took a cautious sip before even bothering to address Jonghyun.
"Yeah, I'm moody. You don't like it? Go jump--"
"You are so sexy when you're jealous noona."
"For the last fucking time, I'm not jeal--"
"You are. I saw how you were looking at me. You want me don't you noona..." I slammed my fists into the table causing Jonghyun to jump in his seat.
"Fucking shut up Jonghyun! Yes, I'm jealous, don't carry on anymore. My headache's returning and your voice is annoying the fuck out of me." I said picking up my fork and stabbing a chunk of eggs before devouring it hungrily.
"I'm sorry noona." Jonghyun said as he picked up his fork and began devouring his food as well.

By the time 10 AM rolled around, my hang over was starting to show signs of letting up. Jonghyun noticed my changing mood and began to strike up conversation a little more and I apologized for snapping at him. We had stopped in front of my suite.
"It's all right. I totally get it, you drank a lot last night." Jonghyun said, moving some hair out of my face. "I've had quite a few of those nights."
"Yeah but you didn't deserve me snapping and cussing at you." I said, my eyes meeting his briefly before looking at the ground
"Well, I was being pretty annoying. I was just excited that you were jealous of Melody..."
"What exactly happened...I mean you don't have to tell me..."
"Oh that? It's a onetime thing. We're not together or anything...she woke up frustrated, and I've been a little frustrated myself lately..."
"Okay, okay...I get it..." Just then Jonghyun closed the distance between us and wrapped his arms around me, pinning me against him. My eyes met his. "Hey...what're you doing?"
"Extending the same invitation to you...if you ever need to relieve some stress. Come find me." I let out a laugh of amusement as I peeled myself away from him.
"Thanks, but no thanks..." Just then he leaned forward and his lips crushed mine. I didn't stop him, instead I wrapped my arms around his neck. Jonghyun took that as an invitation and grabbed the back of my legs before lifting me up against him before pinning me against the wall next to the door. He thrust his tongue inside of my mouth and I just went with it, enjoying the impromptu make-out session.
Just then we heard something on the other side of the wall shift and Jonghyun pulled away from me and set me back down on the ground again. Moments later, the door was opened and Melody stepped outside.
"Oh hey guys. Are they still serving breakfast?"
"They were tearing stuff down when we went. You might want to hurry and see if there's anything left." I said, shielding my eyes from the bright sunlight.
"Yeah I'll do that. How are you feeling by the way?"
"Shitty. I still gotta pack..."
"Well I'm sure Jonghyun might help, he's already packed and ready to go..." Melody said as her voice trailed off out of earshot as she made her way to the main office leaving Jonghyun and I alone. As soon as Melody had disappeared, I was hoisted over Jonghyun's shoulders and taken inside my suite.
"Jonghyun! What are you doing?"
"Continuing what we had going earlier." Jonghyun said as I felt him stop.
"Jonghyun...I don't think that's a good id---AH! HEY!" I yelled as he dumped me onto the bed and I only had a second to settle before Jonghyun climbed on top of me. "Jonghyun...seriously..." His lips silenced me in a deep kiss that had my mind swimming. I pulled away. "I need a shower and pack."
"What would you rather do noona...shower and pack, or continue...I honestly wouldn't mind continuing..." Jonghyun said his lips drifting over my neck.
"Shower and pack." Jonghyun pulled away frustrated as he got up off of me. He offered his hand to me to pull me up off the bed.
"Fine, where are your clothes and suitcase?"
"All the clothes are in the dresser, and my suitcase is in the closet..." I said getting to the dresser first to grab a pair of clean clothes.
"Okay noona, I'll help you pack, you take a shower."
"Thank you Jonghyun." I said as I laid a kiss upon his cheek before going into the bathroom to take a shower.
I showered and upon stepping out of the shower, I heard quite a few voices out in the front room. I dried off with the last towel and quickly got dressed before brushing my teeth and grabbing all of my toiletries and exiting the bathroom.
"Oh there she is...enjoy your shower noona?" Taemin asked, as he sat on the edge of my bed.
"Yeah, I did...where's my suitcase?"
"Jonghyun brought it out, do you need to pack those? I'll take them out there if you want?"
"Um..sure, I guess." I said, handing the toiletries over to Taemin who then exited the suite with them. I then grabbed my purse to make sure I had my phone, wallet, flight itinerary among other things. "When's check-out?"
"At noon" Came the response from Jinki. I checked the time on my phone, it was a little after 11am.
"What's everyone doing here?" I asked, noticing Jin, Minho, Jinki, Melody and Key were sitting around.
"The guys already checked out of their room. They're just waiting on us."
"Oh, I'm sorry guys. You guys should've said something--"
"No, no, it's fine. Take your time. I heard you had quite the night last night." Jin said a smirk on his features, and I noticed he had that predatory stare again. I sat next to Minho at the table.
"Yeah, I did." I said crossing my legs as I could literally feel Jin's eyes drinking in my legs and trying to get a shot of my underwear as I was wearing a pair of shorts and a regular t-shirt. "Is that van here yet?"
"No, but they're on their way."
"Oh shit...oops...let's get going then." I said shooting up as Minho also followed my lead and shot up out of his chair. We all went outside into the 100+ Fahrenheit heat and made out way over to the office where we met up with Jonghyun and Taemin. We all sat down and enjoyed some lemonade while we waited for the van to show up.

We arrived at the airport at 12:24...at least that's what the time on my phone said. We all headed to the gate we were leaving out of and just waited for boarding. Most of us were starving by the time they called boarding. On the plane, Taemin and I were seated on the right side of the plane in the first class cabin. Taemin had already stowed our carry on in the overhead bins. The plane took off a little behind schedule and it was expected that we would be delayed due to some storms that popped up in the Midwest again.
Once we got up to cruising altitude, we were told food was going to be served. So I got an antipasto starter which Taemin wanted to share with me. Both Taemin and I selected the steak choice with garlic mashed potatoes and some steamed vegetables. We also got a side salad and a bread roll as well. For dessert, I went with strawberry gelato, and Taemin chose chocolate. Taemin chose beer and I chose Pinot Noir as the drink of choice. The others chose either Steak, Chicken, Fish or Pasta. We finished our meals and I switched to water after my one glass of wine, which seemed to keep the symptoms of my hangover at bay. I decided to take a brief nap since we had a little over an hour left of flight time before making it to Minneapolis. So I reclined my seat and dozed off.
Taemin woke me up when the we began making our descent down to land. He mentioned that I missed some awesome storms that popped up and he showed me some video he took of them.When we landed we taxied to the gate and got off the plane. We had an hour layover before having to make our next flight to NYC so we went to our concourse and found a lounge to hangout in until it was time to board.
The flight back to NYC was pretty uneventful, I played a card game with Key to pass the time as I knew if I tried to sleep anymore, I wouldn't be able to sleep when the time came.
We touched down in La Guardia a little after 8pm and we were greeted at the airport by a small group of shawols that had been following the group's activities. By now, I didn't hide the fact that I was a woman. The fans were still trying to figure out my job was with the group as I kept showing up on Key's instagram and in Jinki and Jonghyun's twitter. Jinki and Jonghyun both opened up an instagram too upon Key's urging.
I was fending off hundreds to thousands of new requests per day on my social media accounts. Eventually I had to put my facebook on private and deactivate both my twitter and instagram accounts upon urging of Melody because I was simply too overwhelmed with all the requests for information.
The press conference where I would be introduced as the new leader of SHINee would be held on Friday, August 30^th. It was already announced that SHINee would be releasing an English album, so the fans here in the US were on high alert. They didn't announce the date or anything, just that they were preparing one. As far as I knew I would handle all the press, interviews and promotion in the western hemisphere, while Jinki and the rest of the guys would cover it in eastern hemisphere. I was still taking Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese and Korean language courses so I could understand what's going on and step in where needed and address the fans.
I was nervous about what the fans would think of me. Would they welcome me with open arms? Or will I be treated as an outsider? Will I get viciously attacked? I could feel panic wash over me as I took a deep breath. Now was not the time or place for a panic attack. I followed the guys out of the airport into our awaiting van. Each of us handed out luggage to the driver who put our luggage in the back before getting into the van. The van took off, and I tried to ignore my racing heart, but the more I tried to ignore it, the worse it seemed to get. I broke out into a sweat and closed my eyes to focus on my breathing. Shit, this was bad. I felt like I was going to pass out. Minho seemed to notice something was off.
"Crystal, are you okay?"
"N-No...my heart...it's racing."
"Take a deep breath Crystal. It's okay." Minho said, swiping to the stop watch on his phone.
"What’s going on?" Jinki asked from the seat in front of us.
"I think it's a panic attack." Minho said, pretty much knowing the drill since I've had them with him before. He monitored my pulse for fifteen second before punching some numbers into his calculator app. "Crystal. You're not dying. Give me a hug." Minho pulled me against him as I put my arms around him.
"What's my heart rate?"
"I'm not telling you. Focus on your breathing...it will go away on its own."
"I'm gonna pass out...God I feel sick..." I then started heaving like I was about to throw up. My heart was going crazy in my chest and it was causing me to feel nauseous. I was sweating bullets now yet I felt like my blood was made of ice. Yep. It was a panic attack.
Just then Key grabbed a small garbage pail from the front and thrust it in front of me in which I hurled the contents of my stomach into it.
"What caused it?" I heard Jinki ask Minho.
"Probably the heat and her hangover..."
"Has she had these before..."
"All the time..." My ears started ringing and my vision started to tunnel. I could hear my erratic heartbeat in my ears. I was fading quick. Fuck, fuck, fuck.
"Crystal!" Everything went black.
