We all head out in my vehicles. Jonghyun, Key and Taemin rode with Minho in his old car while Jinki and my daughter rode in my Impala. I pulled out first, with Minho following behind so he wouldn't get lost, since he had no idea how to get to Lake Audobon.
I drove to Walmart, Jinki and I made light conversation. He and Jasmine got along well, they were singing the Alphabet Song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. We arrived at Walmart and I pulled into a close parking space. Jinki helped Jasmine out of the car, but instead of holding her hand, he hoisted her up on his shoulders, causing her to giggle and hang onto Jinki's hands to steady herself.
“Run Jinki! Run!”
“Run? Okay!” Jinki then tightens his grip on my daughter and runs into the store.
Just then, Key screams. “Jinki!! HEY!!!" There was some camraderie between the guys and just then, I was unexpectedly hoisted onto someone's shoulders, throwing my balance off. I felt hands on the small of my back which prevented me from fall back onto the pavement. I let out a yelp at the sudden change of posture and hands touching me
“Jonghyun! Careful! You nearly dropped her, you moron...”
“Oops, sorry.” I head Jonghyun say, I looked down at sure enough Jonghyun had me hoisted on his shoulders. I looked back at Minho while hooking my legs on either side of Jonghyun's underarms to keep my balance and anchor myself to the younger man. “Hey Minho, catch me if you can, I've got your girlfriend...”
“Hey!” Minho yelled, and Jonghyun took off and I could feel my hold slip with each step Jonghyun took.
“Oh my God Jonghyun...” I said, wrapping my arms around Jonghyun's forehead.
“Don't worry I got you...” Jonghyun said, wrapping his arms around my backside to ensure I didn't slide off with every stride of his legs. Minho had caught up to us with Key and Taemin still lagging behind a llittle bit. We finally got inside Walmart and Minho helped me off Jonghyun. With my feet firmly planted on the ground I went to join Jinki and my daughter.
“What the hell Jonghyun! She could've fell...” Minho started in on Jonghyun. I was honestly confused by the display of man power exhibited by Jonghyun.
“What? I had her. You need to stop being such a worry wort. Your girlfriend is not as fragile as you think she is...okay?”
Meanwhile, I looked down at my daughter who had Jinki eating out of the palm of her hand.
“Mommy, Jinki is really strong...so is Jongie...”
“Jongie? What's up with the nickname Jazzy?” Jonghyun asked, grabbing a shopping cart.
“Your name is really hard to say...” My daughter said, looking up at Jonghyun. You could see Jonghyun's heart melt. It never ceased to amaze me with my daughter's ability to wrap these guys around her finger. Even Taemin and Key weren't immune to her charm.
“Aw...that's okay. I like Jongie...” Jasmine's eyes lit up and a smile erupted on her face. Jonghyun leaned down with his back facing her. Jasmine's jumped on his back knowing what to do. “...Oh, so much lighter than your mommy.” With that, Jonghyun ran around the entrance of the store, running and jumping to get my daughter to laugh. Meanwhile Key and Taemin finally made it inside. Minho interlocked our fingers only to be pulled apart by Key.
“Hey now, I need to take Crystal...” Minho looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
“Oh really? Why?” Key said something in Korean and Minho rolled his eyes and muttered something back then the guys took Jasmine leaving me alone with Key. Key and I began to make our way to the ladies swimwear section.
“Now that I have you alone...let's find you a bikini.”
“No bikinis please Key?”
“Why not? Girl, you worked for this body...why not show it off?”
“I still don't like it...I mean. I have marks all over my mid-section...” Key suddenly turned around and gave me a stern look.
“Stop! You are hot honey, believe me.” His eyes trailed over my body and there was something in his eyes that I hadn't seen before. Lust. A shiver ran down my spine. I knew why he told Minho not to tail us now. “You have a body any woman would die for...and would stop any man in his tracks. So, stop putting yourself down.” With a warm smile he turned back around as he immediately spotted a monokini. “Maybe you won't have to wear a bikini...here try this on...” Key said, shoving the hanger with the black monokini on it toward me and I glanced at the tag...it was a size four.
“Key, I don't even think it's gonna fit...”
“Just humor me, while your trying that on, I'll be looking at other options for you.” I nodded, I also liked his choice. It covered all the areas I wasn't comfortable with.
I changed into it in a nearby dressing room. It seemed to fit me better than I had originally thought. I was still getting used to being small. It was definitely a good ego boost. There's a knock on the dressing room door. I unlocked it, while leaning against the door, not allowing him in just yet.
“Key, promise not to say anything perverted...”
“God, Crystal, just let me see it...” I drew in a deep breath and opened the door. Key's jaw dropped as soon as I stepped out. “Holy fuck...I...that looks good.” Key looked around quickly before setting the bathing suits he was holding down.
“Just good?” I asked. By now he had stepped into my personal bubble which caused the both of us to disappear into the dressing room.
“Well, the top is a bit loose...here let me help you.” With that, Key disappeared behind me. He was still pretty close, I could feel his body heat radiate off of him and I felt his hands untie the halter string holding the top of the monokini together. His hands were smooth and warm. He finished tying the strings then reappeared in front of me again. His hands moved down to my breasts where he carefully straightened out the kinked fabric and his hands finally came to rest on my hips. By now I was red with embarrassment and I looked up at him unsure of what his intentions were, and he was just staring at me. Our eyes met and he bit his lip and looked away for a moment before looking at me again.
“I'm stepping away now...” I said, ending our awkward moment by stepping away and grabbing my clothes of the floor.
“Yeah, that was awkward.”
“Yeah...”
“I mean, for a moment there I actually wanted to kiss you...how crazy is that?” Key said, before ripping a price tag off of my side. He said it so non-chalantly, it was hard to believe him.
“What? You're joking right?” I said, pulling on my shorts.
“No. If you haven't noticed Crystal, I kind of like you...I think you're bringing the bi out in me for whatever reason...it's kind of scary.” Key said, his expression turning serious as he stepped toward me a little bit. Yeah, he was serious. This was a problem.
“Hey Key, are you back there?” I heard Minho call out. The man was like my motherfucking savior.
“Yeah Minho. I am.” He mouthed for me to put my shirt on and I did so quickly. “I think we found Crystal a bathing suit.”
“Oh good, we found some trunks that'll work...along with some other things.” Minho said nodding his head to their cart full of water noodles and water guns and other water paraphernalia. I tip toed past the junctions of dressing rooms to see that Minho had Jasmine on his shoulders. “Can I see it?” Minho asks his eyes meeting mine. Key clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes with attitude.
“No? You'll just have to wait to see it when we get to the lake...where's Taemin...and the others?” Key asked, looking for his dongsaengs noticing that it was just Minho and Jasmine.
“With the hyungs. I think they're at the deli.”
“That would be like them, always thinking about food.” Key huffed as I got my shorts and flip flops back on.
We continued shopping around, Minho grabbed some rope, while Key finally met up with Jonghyun and talked him into buying some SPF 50 concealer that cost a pretty penny while I grabbed some sunscreen for Jasmine and myself. I also bought a foldable sunbather's chair while Jinki went and bought some inflatable pool toys and a couple more water noodles.
The guys took care of whatever expense I had, since they recommended that I put the money into an offshore account to avoid the steep 35% tax. Jinki had bought 3lbs of chicken drummies to snack on the drive and it was much appreciated since I was beginning to get hungry.

On the way to Lake Audobon, Jinki popped in one of his Michael Jackson CDs. By the intro, it was his Dangerous album and I found myself harmonizing along to the lyrics with Jinki.
After a half an hour or so of driving we arrive at a good spot along the lake and the guys get out and investigate everything while I set up my chair. Hesitant, I grab my phone and Jonghyun asks if they can play with my daughter and I help my daughter get undressed to her bathing suit and put swim wings on her before Jonghyun and Minho take her swimming. They inadvertently discover a deep drop off spot and Minho notices a tree that would be a perfect swinging spot. So with the help of Jinki and Taemin, they set up a rope swing and the guys take turns going on it with Jasmine. My heart warms to see the guys being really gentle and caring with Jasmine.
I wanted to watch them for a while, but soon I began pouring sweat and Key looks at me.
“You know, you'd be cooler if you got rid of the clothes.” Key said, wagging his eyebrows at me.
I let out a breath knowing he was right, and I finally get the guts to strip down to my bathing suit, I get looks and lingering stares from the guys, but they're too busy with Jasmine to say anything.
“See?” Key murmured, as he continued playing with Jasmine and the guys. I decide to listen to some music on my cell phone.
I'm listening to some relaxing music, basking in the warm sun. It was so warm and felt good that I was almost asleep when I feel cold water drip on my feet and the chair I'm laying on became very unstable. My eyes flutter open to see the guys hauling my chair toward the water. I panicked, pulling my earplugs out and tossing my phone on the dry ground.
“What the hell! No!!!”
“Toss mommy in!” Jasmine cheers the guys on. By now I'm looking for a way to escape.
“Oh no...you guys! NO!” A shiver runs through me. They were really going to do this shit. As soon as the guys were in the water about waist deep, they stop. “Come on guys, let me off...please...NO!!!! FUCK--” Suddenly I am launched off the chair about five feet off the water's surface. I hold my breath and I enter the water. The cool water shocked my warm dry body into an alert state. I resurface a moment later.
“FUCK YOU GUYS!” By now all of them are laughing right along with Jasmine.
“Aw. Little miss Princess is all washed up.” Key teased. I splashed some water toward Key, getting his dry hair drenched good with the aim of my arm. It was a bonus that his mouth was open when I got him. The guy started laughing as Key quickly got over the shock and began to fume. “Oh you bitch!” Key said, as he began charging in after me. He was followed by Minho, and Jonghyun then Jinki. Taemin stayed behind to watch the chaos unfold.
I see them charging at me and I begin swimming as quickly as I can away from them. Key catches up to me and pulls my foot toward him, bringing me under the water and pulled himself up on me dunking me further into the water. I come up and take a breath of air before I feel arms circle my waist and I'm catapulted up out of the water by Jonghyun. When I resurface again I splash in the general direction of the guys and Minho swims up behind me and dunks me. Eventually it got to the point where I had to get out. I flip them the bird and get back to sun bathing.
After another half an hour of sitting in the sun, I started to get warm again so I took a turn on the rope swing. Minho swims over to me with Jasmine and I play with my daughter for a little bit. Meanwhile Minho steps out to reapply his sun screen.
My daughter and I are interrupted by Minho shouting something in Korean followed by Taemin. I look to the beach to see Jinki running to intervene in whatever was happening. I see Key pause to look at what's going on. I pull Jasmine and I out of the water.
“What's going on?”
“I don't know.” I see Jinki pull a flailing Taemin out from behind a clove trees then Minho finally step out, blood running down his face with scratches all over his body and back. “What the hell?” Key then went up to Jinki to get what happened. I was as confused as ever. Jinki looked at me.
“Crystal can I use your car for a moment...”
“Um...sure?” I said, as Jinki pushed Taemin into the passenger side of my car while he got into the driver's seat.
“Keys?” Jinki asked, and I tossed him my keys through the open door. Jinki started my car up and promptly took off with Taemin.
“Crystal. Come here!” Key said, beckoning me to him with his finger. I nodded while Jonghyun took my daughter and Key handed me a first aid kit. “Can you patch him up?”
“Yeah, what happened?”
“Taemin went crazy. Remember when I told you that he had confessed to me? Well he's upset that I denied his confession. He tried to kiss me. I pushed him away, he pushed me back. He called you a whore and a lazy American then he tried to...go down me and I pushed him away once again. He then said that he would ruin your chances with our group and he hated you for taking me away from him...then he punched me. I didn't see it coming and once I was down, he attacked...”
“What the hell! Why the fuck would he do that?” I said shocked, I carefully tended to Minho's split eyebrow and lip, focusing on stopping the bleeding.
“I don't know. He just went off...I have honestly never seen him this violent to any of us.”
“I would've never guessed him to be the violent type. I know he's been frustrated lately, but I thought he was over you already. He seemed to be doing better. Minho if I would've known he wasn't okay I would've asked him to stay behind in New York.” Key said, looking down at him. He nodded.
“I don't think he would've been honest with you anyway Key. This has been building for some time. Taemin's always been the one to hold things in until he explodes.” Jonghyun said, looking at Key. Key nodded in agreement. “Hopefully Jinki-hyung can get through to him...” Then he cut into Korean and Key and him exchanged into conversation with Minho interjecting towards the end. I had doctored up his wounds and grabbed some ice from a cooler we had brought for drinks. I wrapped the ice in my towel and held it on Minho's face.
“Here keep this on. It'll help with the swelling.” I said, and Minho grabbed the towel and gave a small smile.
“Thank you.” He said, staring up at me. I handed him his shirt.
Just then Jinki pulled up with my Impala. Taemin glared at me from the passenger seat. Key and Jonghyun left us to talk with Jinki. Leaving me alone with Minho.
“So, what now?”
“I don't know. I hope Taemin will let this go at some point. There's no doubt that he blames you for supposedly stealing me away from him. I am hoping this is the end of it.” Minho said, looking up at me. “Crystal I hope you know I love you. I'd do anything for you.” I nodded.
“And I love you too.” Jonghyun and Jinki began packing up the Impala, while Key was getting Jasmine into her car seat.
“Sorry to break up the love fest going on here, but Jinki wants to get back into town. He needs to take care of some business. I think he's also hungry. He wants to go to Longhorn Steakhouse. He says that Taemin might feel better after some good food. I don't see his logic but whatever. ”
“Oh, okay. We can do that. It'll be dark in about an hour anyway. Did you want to ride with us?” I asked looking up at Key. By now Jonghyun was carrying the last of the water gear to the car while Jinki was untying the rope from the tree.
“Yeah, Jonghyun, you ride with Jinki.” Key called out looking at Jonghyun before opening the back passenger door. Jasmine was seated directly behind the driver's seat.
“What? Why?”
“We don't have room for you.” Key said, matter-of-factly.
“Key, you can squeeze in the middle...”
“Jonghyun, just ride with us, we won't bite.” Jinki said, and Jonghyun surprisingly listened and didn’t argue with the elder. Minho got dressed and I laid a towel in the front seat for him to sit on. I drove back to my place so everyone could change. Taemin pushed past me in order to get to the bathroom first. Minho and Jinki were appalled but I wasn’t hurt or anything and told them to let it go.
Unfortunately this was just the beginning of Taemin’s disrespect for me.
Taemin remained silent for the rest of the night. He didn’t talk to the rest of the members at dinner, and only spoke when spoken to by the restaurant staff. So, getting him to agree on anything was a hassle. For drinks, we all settled on beer with Jasmine getting a mango flavored lemonade. Jinki asked to pick up a few packs of beer on the way back to my place. Jonghyun and Key agreed.
“If we do though, I want to make sure Jasmine’s asleep before we do any drinking though.”
“Don’t worry. We wouldn’t jeopardize Jasmine like that. We love her too much.”
“I know, but I also know you guys can get rowdy.”
“Mommy, what’s wrong with Taemin? He won’t answer my question.” I looked at Taemin then back at Jasmine.
“Taemin’s just having a bad day sweetie, we all have them at times.”
“Does it have to do with him fighting with Minho earlier?” I cringed, and everything at the table came to a halt. Everyone looked at me to give my daughter the answer.
“Yes, honey, yes it does. Sometimes grown-ups don’t get along, but violence should never be the answer, only if someone is getting hurt is it ever okay to hit anyone.”
“Was Minho getting hurt?”
“No sweetie, they just had a disagreement about something…why don’t you order an appetizer honey?”
“Well I asked Taemin if he wanted anything and he won’t answer me. He was nice to me earlier. Taemin do you not like me anymore?” My heart broke. I could tell Taemin was cracking under the pressure.
“I need to use the bathroom…” Taemin said, Key’s glared at Taemin with vile intent before his gaze softened and he looked down at Jasmine.
“Come on Jasmine, we gotta let Taemin out.” Key said, lifting my daughter over his lap and out of the booth. Key slid out of the booth next. Taemin quickly slid out next and headed in the opposite direction. I was upset. As much as I hated confrontation, Taemin’s attitude wasn’t right. I looked at my daughter and saw tears in her eyes and my mama bear instinct went into overdrive. I excused myself from the table and tracked Taemin down.
“Taemin!” He turned around, hearing his name called. Upon seeing me, he turned back around and was about ignore me. “Hey, don’t ignore me.” By now my heart was pounding in my chest with adrenaline, I ignored it.
“Whatever.” Taemin muttered as he continued his way to the bathroom. I reached out to grab him but he turned around swiftly and glared at me. “Don’t fucking touch me.”
“I get it, you’re angry at me for whatever fucked up reason. But, don’t you dare take it out on my five year old. She did nothing to you. She doesn’t understand what’s going on and she doesn’t have the mind to comprehend it. She’s only a child Taemin.”
“She’s a part of you. Right now I can hardly stand to be in the same room any of you.”
“Be angry at the right people Taemin, and grow up for God’s sake. You’re 20 years old, fucking act like it. Quit taking it out on Jasmine. She’s was almost in tears, she’s only five years old!”
“Don’t tell me to grow up.”
“Well act like the grown man you’re supposed to be. There are other men in the sea.”
“You don’t get it. Minho was everything to me. You know what? Get out of my face before I do something I regret.”
“Is that a threat?” Taemin walked away shaking his head. He walked into the bathroom. I didn’t want to wait around, my stomach growled at me, so I headed back to the table.
“Well, he didn’t hit you. That’s a good sign.” Key remarked as I neared the table. “I moved you and Jasmine to the other side. I don’t trust Taemin enough not to haul off and hit your daughter.”
“I’m sorry for how he’s acting Crystal. I’m going to send Taemin back to New York tomorrow. This is unacceptable behavior from him.” Jinki said, looking at me over his menu. I nodded taking a long drink from my beer.
For appetizers we ordered an order of Sweet and Spicy Calamari, Stuffed Mushrooms, Parmesan crusted Asparagus, and Spinach Dip. Everyone ordered some kind of steak, even Jinki. Jasmine did the kid’s Sirloin, Key and I both had four oz Sirloins but I chose to have the rosemary Cabernet Sirloin while Key opted for a plain one. Jonghyun and Jinki both had Rib-eyes while Taemin and Minho both chose New York Strip. I opted for a small baked sweet potato and steamed broccoli for sides. I doubted I would be able to finish it all. After we all order, Key noticed the desserts, and of course, everyone wanted to order desserts as well. The major consensus was for cheesecake but I chose the chocolate stampede.
Taemin did better acknowledging my daughter, but she was now unsure of him and didn’t interact with him as much as she did the others. I ended up needing two containers to put my food in. Key, Jonghyun, Minho and Jinki played Kai Bai Bo to see who would be stuck with the bill. Jonghyun lost, and was stuck with paying the $250 bill. I heard Taemin thank Jonghyun for the meal as we walked out. I left a $20 bill at the table along with Jinki and Minho, and as we were leaving, Key tossed down another ten.
On the way back I stopped at the Landing. Jinki, Key and I were left to buy the alcohol.
“Get whatever you want, it doesn’t have to beer. Get anything girly, I’ll probably help you drink it.” Key whispered as we stood in front of the beer cooler.
“Yeah, he’s a lush. A fruity flavored lush.” Jinki muttered from an aisle over where the wines and hard liquor were neatly stacked. Key rolled his eyes at the elder.
“Since when do you know what a lush is? More importantly, how can you even be sure I am what you say I am?” Key said, his eyes following the elder as walked down the same aisle that both Key and I were in.
“You’ve always been that way Key.” Jinki said, grabbing a 24 pack of Bud Light Platinum out of the beer cooler. Meanwhile I was grabbing a 20 pack of assorted flavored Bud Light Margaritas. Satisfied with our purchases, we headed toward the cash register passing along another aisle of premium liquors and a couple caught Key's eye.
“Um…here’s a question, how hammered do we want to get tonight?” Key asked, holding up a bottle of X-rated and a bottle of Patron tequila. Just then my phone buzzed in my pocket. I took the phone out of my pocket and glanced at the number, it was a brother.
“Hey Mike, what’s up?”
“When do you leave for New York?”
“In a few days? Why?”
“I’m taking Jasmine, Kya and I want to spend some time with her and let dad spend time with her before she leaves.”
“Okay, when will you come pick her up?”
“Well, how fast can you get an overnight bag ready for her? Where are you?”
“We’re on our way back from dinner…but can you give me an hour?”
“Yeah, I’ll see you around 10?”
“Yeah 10 will work. See you then little bro.”
“See you.” I hung up my phone. Jinki and Key were both looking at me now.
“Who was that? Your brother?”
“Yeah, he’s taking Jasmine tonight. They want to spend time with her before I leave for New York.”
“Oh that’s cool…so…we’ll need a lot more of this…” Key said looking down at the bottles in his hands. Jinki shook his head.
“No Kibum. Let’s just work with what we got. We have to help Crystal start packing tomorrow. Packing while being hung over sucks.”
“Aw…fine.” Kibum said, as he put back the Patron and settle for a bottle of Grey Goose vodka instead.
Key purchased the alcohol and we headed back to my place. Jinki put all the alcohol in the fridge while I made a bee line to my daughter’s bedroom where I packed her an overnight bag with a couple of changes of clothes and what not.
“Mommy? Where am I going?”
“You’re going to spend the night with your Uncle Michael.”
“Oh goody! When’s he coming mama?”
“Here in a little bit.”
“Are we moving mommy?”
“Yes sweetie, we are. We’re going to New York so mama can be a singer.”
“You’ll do good mommy. I know it.”
“Thank you honey. I love you.” I said giving my daughter a hug.
“I love you too.”

Michael came to pick her up shortly after that and told me he would bring her back the day before we were leaving which I didn’t have a problem with, I knew she was in good hands with them. After Jasmine and my little brother left, Key brought me a beer while bringing everyone else one. Taemin had grabbed one for himself already and was seated on the floor playing on his phone completely ignoring us.
“Drink up darling,”
“Okay? Why?”
“We’re gonna play a game called Two Truths and A Lie.” Minho said, twisting open his beer. I twisted mine open shortly after him.
“Two Truths and a Lie? What’s that about?” I asked looking at Minho.
“Well it’s a get to know you game. You tell us two truths and a lie about yourself and the rest of us have to guess which one is the lie. The object is the fool us.” Jonghyun answered.
“So, what happens if you guess incorrectly?”
“You have to drink.” Key said.
“Okay sounds good. Who’s going first?”
“Why don’t you go first since you’re the oldest.” Jinki said, winking at me while taking a swig of his beer.
“Okay fine…here we go…” I paused to think for a second. “I was born in December, I was born in Florida, my blood type is A.” Key was the first one to speak.
“There is no way you were born in Florida.”
“I say the first thing you said, you’re not born December…didn’t you just recently have a birthday?” Jinki asked. I shrugged.
“I’m going with Key.” Jonghyun chimed in.
“Well I know the answer to that already. Key and Jonghyun drink up.” Minho said, as we both watched Key and Jonghyun take a long swig of their beers. I let out a giggle.
“Minho you go.” I said. By the end of the game I was buzzing pretty good. I was feeling daring, and I could tell the other guys were too. By now, Taemin had disappeared. Minho went to check up on him and he confirmed that the maknae had passed out in Jasmine’s bedroom. Jonghyun and Minho grabbed the air mattresses from my bedroom and laid them out in the living room. Key randomly asked what time it was. It was a little after midnight.
“That’s it? Hell, let’s play some truth or dare.” Key slurred. Jinki shook his head.
“No Key, we should all get some rest. We’ve got a big day tomorrow of packing and hauling furniture. I would prefer that everyone get a good rest. Perhaps we could do that another time, but, not tonight.” I let out a huge yawn as I looked over at Minho who was sitting next to me.
“Where are you sleeping tonight?”
“I could sleep with you again…”
“I hope you mean just sleeping and not fucking.” Jonghyun interjected hearing our conversation.
“Yes, of course just sleeping…Jesus. I can control myself you know!”
“Hey I was just saying…you have to think about her contract too, it’s similar to the one we signed. I mean, even sleeping in the same bed could even be considered a breach of contract...” Jonghyun did have a point and I could see Minho deep in thought.
“You’re right. I don’t want to ruin your chances Crystal, I’ll sleep out here tonight.” Minho said, his eyes meeting mine. My heart sank a little, but I had to resign to the fact that this was my life now.
“Okay, well goodnight guys. Sleep tight!” I said getting up off the floor and walking toward my bedroom.
“Crystal.” Minho called, he was right behind me. I turned around and looked up at him.
“Goodnight.” He said, as he leaned down and passionately kissed me in front of Jasmine’s open door. His hands groped my body before letting me go. “God I miss this…you don’t know how badly I want to take you right now.” I took his hand in mine and glanced down at our intertwined fingers.
“We can’t though Minho. We both know it, so why have that temptation when we can’t do anything about it.” I said, looking up at him. With his free hand he caressed my face.
“You’re right. Get some sleep…I’ll see you in the morning.” Minho said, placing a final kiss on my forehead before letting me retire to my room for the night. I stripped down to a simple shirt and my underwear before crawling underneath the covers and surrendering my body to sleep.

*********TRIGGERING SCENE AFTER THIS YOU CAN SKIP THIS SCENE ENTIRELY OR KEEP READING YOU'VE BEEN WARNED*********

“So this is what is luring Minho away from me. You’re not much to look at.” Taemin’s voice entered my dream. I was very confused as to why Taemin was in my dream or why the dream felt real. I could hear him mess with the elastic band of his boxers as if he was pulling them down. My pulse began to race in fear. I could feel him glaring down at me, he had drawn the covers off of me. I could hear the crash of thunder. He was at my bedside now, I could feel the heat of his body radiate off him. “Why does he love you so much? It should be me he should be with, not you.” His lips were next to my ear, his stale breath hit my face, his hand now lightly tracing my right knee and trailing upward. At this point, I knew it wasn’t a dream and my eyes shot open and my body went into fight or flight mode.
Taemin’s hand gripped my hip hard, his slender fingers digging into the gap between my lower abdomen and hipbone. His strength surprised me as he ripped me back onto my back. This was the first time I saw him and he was naked and hard.
“TAE—“ His hand covered my mouth.
“You scream, and I’ll really hurt you, got it?” I froze in fear but somehow my body moved on its own and I managed to nod my head. “Good. Now…where was I? Oh, you won’t need these. They’ll just be in the way.” And with that, he ripped off my panties. Now my heart was beating double time. I tried to protest but my pleas were muffled by Taemin’s hand. My left had balled into a fist and I swung, and I connected with something hard and solid. Taemin’s weight was off me in an instant and my mouth free, I let out a blood curdling scream.
“Crystal?”
I went to scream again but I saw Taemin above me again and this time I was blindly struck with his fist. I went to kick him, but Taemin saw it coming and used that momentum to pry my legs apart.
“NO! NO!”
“YOU STUPID BITCH!” Now there were voices outside my door, and a loud pounding as if they were trying to break the door down. “Noone's going to stop me…” I realized I was immobilized by fear as Taemin tried to force himself inside me and something strange happened. I somehow disconnected with my body. I could still see Taemin, but my mind wasn't processing it. The door broke off of its hinges and Taemin was ripped off of me. Jinki was my savior, he threw Taemin into the counter. My vision blurred and I could hear my erratically fast heartbeat in my ears.
“Crystal! Crystal….stal…stal…stal…..” Everything was blurring together and I could no longer concentrate. I went to get up and everyone went pale with shock. I felt something warm run down my leg…I felt extremely weak.
“Help…me…” I breathed before everything closed in on me.
**********************************************END SCENE*****************************************

The next time I woke up, I was in a hospital bed. My throat hurt and I felt thirsty and I was so sore all over. I saw a cup of water on a table next to my bedside and I went to grab it. Panic hit me as I saw Taemin's face from the night before sitting where the cup used to be. I heard some muffled exchanges before I saw long slender fingers grasp the cup. What the fuck?
“Good to see you awake.” I heard Minho’s baritone voice say, as he held the cup to the lips. “Are you okay?”
“What happened last night wasn't a dream was it...”
“No.” Key said, and it sparked a dangerous rage inside me. I kept my voice level.
“How long have I been out?”
“Twelve hours...maybe a little longer. ”
“And Taemin?”
“He was in jail, but Manager-Hyung flew here via private jet and bailed him out before taking him back to New York.”
“What? I think I’m gonna be sick….”
“We want him there as much as you do, you have to think of the contract…”
“Fuck the contract! Taemin tried to rape me Jonghyun! Did he even succeed? What if he succeeded, huh? Then about your fucking contract Jonghyun huh?” I yelled, “It’ll be null and fucking void!” Jonghyun looked defeated and tucked his tail between his legs and cowered in a corner to lick his wounds. I could tell Key was irritated with me for yelling at his precious boyfriend, but at this point I didn’t care. Just then a nurse came in and looked at all of us.
“Is everything okay in here? Do I need to ask you guys to leave?”
“Yes! Please! I don’t want to talk to anyone right now.”
“But Crystal!” Jonghyun protested but the nurse herded them out.
“You guys heard her come on…”
“Come on Jonghyun. Leave her alone.” Jinki said, pushing Jonghyun lightly out the door.

About fifteen minutes later police came by to get my statement claiming they already had the photos needed as hard evidence. I asked what the charges were going to be and they told me that Taemin had confessed that he was not trying to kill me. They were going to charge him with simple assault. I was flabbergasted and told the cops that he tried to rape me as well but the rape kit concluded that were was no penetration, no fluids, nothing. It would Taemin's word against mine, unless I could get the guys to testify in court otherwise it wouldn't hold up in court. The detective and the two deputies, leave me alone to allow me some time to think over it. The nurse comes into the room and I look at her name badge.
“Susan?”
“Yes?”
“What happened to me?”
“Your body shut itself down before you had a stroke. That's the body's mechanism when going through trauma, you pissed yourself then fainted.”
“Oh...” Suddenly feeling embarrassed for even asking. “You said I nearly had a stroke?”
“Yeah, your blood pressure was..." She glanced through my chart. "214/117...which is through the roof when those guys brought you in. You're heartrate was in the 150s. You were already out, but we gave you some tranquilizing medicine to bring down your blood pressure. Those guys out there have been worried sick about you though...do you want to talk to them.”
“Yeah...when can I go home...”
“Soon, we're drawing your release paperwork right now...”
“Okay,”
“Okay, I'll send the guys in.” Susan said, leaving my hospital room. Soon after she left, the guys entered the room.
“Hey...we brought you some food.” Jonghyun said his eyes meeting mine.
“Aw...thank you...” I said, taking the Styrofoam container from him. I set it on the table to the side of me.
“Aren't you hungry?” Key asked looking at me. I nod.
“Yeah, but there's a more pressing matter to discuss with you guys first.”
“We're all ears Crystal. What's bothering you?” Jinki asked, his eyes meeting mine.
“The only charges they can bring up against Taemin is simple assault. There's no evidence that Taemin even attempted to rape me. If I decide to press charges I need someone to testify what Taemin did...”
“Well...this is quite a predicament isn't it?” Jinki stated heavily. I already knew their answer based on their reactions, and I understood where they were coming from. They were conflicted, but they loved Taemin like a brother, and I was just an outsider. Sure, they cared about me...and Taemin was out of line, but they knew him for close to 8 years, they were just getting to know me. I know Minho was in my corner but I couldn't ask the others to do the same, nor was I going to let this ruin my chances with the group.
“Look, I'll drop the charges as long as I get a statement from Taemin promising he will never do anything like this again...” I said, rubbing over my sore muscles.
“Crystal, we can't ask you to do that...we can't...” Key said surprised. Jonghyun seemed as shocked as everyone else.
“You're willing to just let this go?”
“Do I have a choice? Either way I press charges, Taemin does community service, if I don't we can all focus on our album...I mean isn't that what we want?”
“Yes, but Taemin tried to you rape you, I mean I want to kill him right now...” Minho said, fuming.
“I do too, but I have to face the facts...1) There will be no justice. 2) Taemin needs some serious professional help. 3) I'm sure that whatever SM can do to Taemin will be more strict than anything that any judge can do to him. So I'll call the Minot PD and tell them that I'll drop the charges.” I said, still feeling groggy but I was more hungry than anything. I grabbed the Styrofoam container and inside was a small ranch Cobb salad which I happily plowed through before the nurse came in to get my IV out and the guys managed to bring my personal affects to change into.
“Are you this is what you want to do Crystal. Once you drop charges you won't be able to change your mind or anything...” Jinki said, his eyes meeting mine. I let out a breath.
“I just want this done, and over with...I don't want to have to dredge this up over and over again...I just wanna forget it...” By now tears were coming down my face and I was met by Minho's chest and I let go. “Why did he do this to me? To us?”
“I don't know Crys—ooh that's manager-hyung I better get this.” Jinki left the hospital room only to come back in, dragging Minho away from me.
“Manager-hyung needs to talk to you...”
“Fuck...Taemin's going to be the end of us if he doesn't stop this bullshit obsession he's got with Minho...” Key mumbled under his breath. Jonghyun put an arm around me.
“Are you going to be okay?” His eyes met mine, and I took in a deep breath.
“I don't know Jonghyun. I wish I knew the answer to that. Physically, I'm fine...mentally, I'm in disbelief, emotionally, I'm upset, angry...I'm strong though. I'll get through it...” I felt fingers interlacing with my own and they weren't Minho's.
“Manager-hyung also requested to speak to you as well...”
“He's not going to yell at me is he? I don't think I can't deal with that right now...”
“No. I don't think so...” I glanced over at Minho who was talking strictly in Korean and glancing out the window of my room. He was also playing with a loose piece of window caulk.
“He can understand English right?”
“A little, nowhere near what we can, but I'll put him on speakerphone, we'll be here.” Jinki said, placing a hand on my shoulder. I nod, taking a deep breath. Minho finishes talking to our manager before handing the phone to Jinki, who then put it on speaker phone.
“Hey Jin...Crystal's listening.”
“Crystal! How are you feeling?”
“Sore but I'm okay, how are you doing Jin?” I asked my eyes searching the room to see if I said the right name. Key nodded at me.
“I'm exhausted. Hey can you do me a favor? Can you please explain to me what happened? Did Taemin try to force himself on you? Is that correct?”
“Yeah. I was sleeping the I heard him talking to me in my sleep. I woke up and he was on top of me...” Tears were forming in my eyes as flashbacks from the night before caused the feelings of panic to flood my body again. Jin must have heard my voice waiver.
“Okay, no need to tell me everything over the phone, Minho explained everything, did the other guys witness this?”
Key spoke Korean, in which I didn't understand but his manager did.
“Well I guess my next question is what are going to do Crystal? Are you going to press charges?”
“I just want to forget that this ever happened honestly. The cops told me they would only charge for simple assault if noone was willing to corroborate and I don't want the guys to choose sides. I didn't mean to stir drama.”
“Well, that's easier said than done unfortunately, I've pushed back everyone's flight a couple of days, so instead of Monday the 9th, you'll leave Thursday the 12th that way you can get done what you need to get done. Perhaps even enjoy your time a little before moving here to NYC.” Jin said, and I nod as if he could see me.
“That sounds good. Jin I never wanted this to happen.”
“It wasn't your fault. Do not apologize. This is all on Taemin and trust me we are going to punish him harshly. We're on a flight back to New York as I speak to you. You don't need to worry about him anymore. Okay? I'll see you Thursday.” He then spoke in Korean and Jinki took the phone off speakerphone and talked to Jin for a bit longer before hanging up with the elder.
The nurse came in and gave me release forms to sign and I signed them and the nurse cut off my armbands and I was free to leave. Minho wrapped an arm around me pulling me to him.
“I'm sorry...”
“You didn't do anything Minho.”
“I didn't protect you from Taemin...”
“Nobody knew he was going to do that. What he did even surprised me...” Key said, overhearing Minho apologize to me.
“Me too.” Jinki said, looking at Minho.
“Crystal I'm sorry for being an ass earlier. I guess I'm still in shock about this whole thing. Taemin's my favorite dongsaeng...it's hard to think he do something so vindictive and horrible.” I drew in a breath my mind trying to formulate the words to say.
“Please guys, stop apologizing. It's not going to make me forget what happened, and it's not going to undo what happened either. I need to focus on packing and starting the next chapter of my life, regardless of what Taemin did.” I said as we walked to my car. Minho opened my car door for me.
“Speaking of packing, we took the liberty of getting things started for you.” I stopped and looked at Jonghyun and blinked.
“You did what?”
“Don't worry you'll see.” Jonghyun said as he got into the car as well. Minho drove us back to my apartment and as soon as I got inside, I noticed everything was fixed up, my bed was gone and in it's place an five twin size mattresses, my dishes and electronics were neatly packed into boxes.
“G-guys? We still have a five days before we leave for New York though...”
“I know. We figured we'd get this knocked away so you could enjoy your time and not have to worry about it.” I had to give it to the guys, they were trying to make me as comfortable as possible.
“Where's my bed though?”
“Your brother wanted it, so Jonghyun and I washed the mattress top and we helped your brother haul it out of the apartment.”
“Oh...what else did you give him?” I asked looking at Key. I knew my brother, when he wanted something he would beg and plead until he had it in his possession.
“Your 32 inch TV...” I looked at him sternly. He shot a look right back at me.
“You're not going to be able to take it with you anyway...I don't know why you're angry, you have plenty of money to buy a much larger TV with. Besides where are you going to put it? You're being put up in a hotel room.” He did have a point.
“Okay. Fine. What about the rest of my stuff?”
“I don't know, give it away?”
“Key I can't just give this stuff away, some of this stuff was my mom's and it has a lot of sentimental value...”
“I'm sure your mom can replace it...” Just then Minho shot Key a deadly glare. I was about to open my mouth but Minho beat me to it.
“How will she do that if she's dead hyung?” Minho said, and Key's jaw dropped.
“D-dead? I--”
“Don't say anymore before you dig yourself into a deeper hole...we'll rent a storage unit Jagiya until you can find a permanent residence.” Minho said, as he grabbed some boxes off the counters and placed them next to the door. I nodded.
“That sounds good.” Key's fingers laced themselves with my own as he brought his lips to my ear.
“Crystal, I am so sorry, I didn't know your mom passed away...”
“It's okay Key, we'll all get to know each other well before too long. Now I'm going to be in my daughter's room to pack up her stuff.” Key nods and the guys let my pack my daughter's belongings in her room into boxes that they bought. I realized that my daughter would be starting school, I would rather have her in a state I knew the school system in and I knew with my career and everything, it would make it difficult to be with my daughter. I pulled out my cellphone and dialed my brother's number. The original plan was that my daughter was going to be in a two bedroom suite with me, but I would rather have my daughter with people I trusted than someone I didn't.
“Hey Michael...I need to talk to you...”
The hour long phone call was about giving temporary guardianship of my daughter to my brother and his fiancee. They were completely fine with it, as long as I would send them money weekly for her. Which was more than reasonable.
The next phone call I made was to Jin telling him about the plan. Jin seemed very pleased with the plan, and would arrange to change the hotel reservation for a one bedroom suite on the same floor as the guys. I asked him if we would draw up papers for temporary guardianship if I emailed him the names and he agreed to draw them up and fax them to the hotel as soon as they were finished to be signed and faxed back and he would take care of the rest.
Taking a deep breath, I resumed packing my daughter's things. Unsure of how I felt about the future.
