-August 27 2014-
I woke up and worked out, by now the other guys were aware of Jin's strange habit of watching me work out in the morning. The other guys thought it was strange too but didn't bother saying anything for fear of alienating their hyung. Upon finishing my workout, Minho and I went upstairs to my hotel room where he made us breakfast while I showered and got dressed in the dress that Sony sent over for me wear. When I got out Minho managed to have some scrambled eggs and toast waiting for me. We ate together before Minho grabbed his clothes and got in the shower as well. Upon getting ready he headed out and met up with the other guys downstairs.
Today we would be meeting up with all the executives, reviewing all five videos before being escorted downstairs for a press conference to announce my addition to the group as well as our upcoming album. We were all dressed in business clothing. Sony actually sent over a black silk sleeveless dress with bow around the neck that I was instructed to wear to the meeting. It was a little shorter than I would've liked, but it would have to work. In the letter as well I was to straighten my hair only, and I was to wear no makeup. I wore a pair of black closed toe pumps with the dress. The same went for the guys, not that they needed it.
We all loaded up into the van and headed straight for the Sony Building where we were met by members of the press as we arrived hoping to catch a glimpse of us before the press meeting. We were ushered inside by security and we went up to the top floor where Edgar's office and meeting rooms were. We arrive in the large meeting room where's there a large flat screen TV and a DVD player.
We wait patiently, everyone making light conversation with me and everyone else. We waited around ten minutes when Edgar came in followed by Melody and Jin and all of the directors of the music videos came in as well as those from the public relations team. Upon getting settled in, the meeting began.
"Okay, so how is everyone today?"
"Good," Came the collective response.
"Great! So we're going to start off this meeting with the viewing of the music videos, I just want to thank Dave, Hiro, and Jake for taking these projects. They're all works of art as I have already had the chance to view them. These are the videos that will be made available to be streamed via YouTube and Vevo. The more adult versions will be aired on MTV, KBS, and VH1 after hours."
I nodded, in understanding. The lights were turned off while another staff member press play on the DVD player and I recognized the set as Heat.
"This is the mature version. A version without all the cursing and sexualization will be put up on youtube. It's still in editing as we speak."
The scene opens up in an abandoned bomb shelter that the members of SHINee fled to when the apocalypse came down. The scene opens up with Jonghyun placing a bottle of water on the table to the sweating guys.
“That’s the last of it. This is what is left. Make it fucking count, once it's gone, it's gone. We'll have to go back out and gather more.” Jonghyun said wiping his brow.
“Fuck, are you kidding me? That can’t be what’s left of our water supply...Minho go make sure. You know how Jonghyun likes to tease.” Jinki says to Minho goes to check the water supply.
“I’m so fucking hot! It’s hotter than a motherfucker out there! It's got to be at least a hundred degrees outside…” You can hear Key exclaim as the camera pans to Minho who on his way to check the water supply in the main room, something catches his eye. It’s a car, a beaten up black SUV to be exact. Minho stops what he’s doing and says.
“Oh no.” Then spins around and races out to where the guys are. "There’s a car coming.” By this time the car spins out, leaving a trail of dust and comes to a stop to the entrance of the shelter. The camera shifts to see the guys going to the camera room.
“Who do you think it is…” Taemin asks.
“Probably an agent with the Federation…” Key speculates. "You know they're always fucking with someone, or something. Can't keep to themselves." I suddenly get out of the SUV, In a white leather corset get-up with a white leather jacket. With white rimmed mirrored aviators. I walk up slowly to the entrance of the shelter looking all around to see any traps or anything. The camera pans to the guys they’re starting to panic.
“Do you think she’s here to help us?” Taemin asks again.
“I don’t know, it's too hard to say….she’s fucking sexy though.” Jinki says, intently watching the screen that the camera broadcasts to. They watch me bend down upon seeing the camera and I take off my glasses and smile and wink. I wave and say hello. “Key get the security system online, I don’t have a good feeling about this.”
“We should let her in! She’s harmless…” Taemin demands. Just then I flip off the camera and with a swift kick I disable the camera. The music starts at this point. I take an explosive out of my jacket and put it on the entrance and two seconds later it blows up. The sirens start going off and all the guys mutter different curses.
“Is she so fucking harmless now Taemin?” Jinki whispers to the youngest. Before unlocking at cabinet full of weapons and handing each of the guys one. Key enables the system. Just then Jonghyun begins singing the first verse.
“Am I crazy? To want you this much
My hearts on fire, just from one little touch”
He loads his gun as Jinki comes up ahead of him tucking two guns behind his back in the waistband of his pants. He sings.
“Pretty baby I’m gonna explode
If I surrender, will you take control?”
Jinki barricades the door. Then the camera pans to me quick to find me falling down the hole the explosives created where I catch myself and see in front of me a tunnel full of lasers. The camera view switches to Taemin who is sharpening a knife.
“I feel like I can hardly breathe
Temperatures rising you know I’m feelin’ the
(Heat)
I can’t concentrate in this
(Heat)
I’m gonna disintegrate in this
(Heat)
If it gets any hotter I won’t have control of me”
There’s a long instrumental…where I’m dancing my way through the lasers the last set I jump through and tumble forward I look into the camera as soon as I stand up.
“Ready or not here I come boys.” I pull out two guns shoot the camera with the one in my left hand. I begin to sing.
“Can’t you see that I’m in heat
All I want you to do is touch my body babe
I lick the top of the gun and slide it down along the side of my body. The camera pans to Key who is now getting out a remote control and a robot comes out of a hiding place in the wall. It also has a camera on it. I look down and begin singing to it.
Don’t be scared, don’t be shy
Cause you know exactly what I like
Key sings and looks at Minho who looks away from the screen looking a bit uncomfortable.
I’m turning these sparks to flames
You know I wanna feel the…
Minho sings. The rest of us sing the chorus. Meanwhile I’m setting a bomb on the guys main door.
(Heat)
I can’t concentrate in this
(Heat)
I’m gonna disintegrate in this
(Heat)
If it gets any hotter I won’t have control of …”
The music stops and door explodes, and you can hear my footsteps as I enter the room cautiously. I pull out both my guns, preparing myself for a trap or ambush. The guys freeze in their hiding places. Taemin is the closest to me as I keep inching forward just then Taemin makes a face like he has to sneeze. Jinki and Jonghyun see this and signal him to hold it, but the poor maknae just can’t and he sneezes. I swoop over to his position and pull him up by his hair. He drops his knife and yells as I shove one of my nine mm’s into his temple, everyone comes out with weapons drawn.
“Well well, what do we have here? Let’s see…six guns to my two…seems fair enough to me.”
“What the fuck do you want from us?” Taemin screams as he struggles against me.
“The only thing I want is enough fucking water to sustain me until I can get to the next town to look for some fucking more…”
“Well good fucking luck, we don’t have any…” Taemin spits, still struggling.
“You know what? Fucking go to sleep.” I mutter, hitting Taemin with the butt of my gun, and knocking him out. I turn my guns on Jinki and Key who have theirs trained on me. “So now I guess what's left to ask is...who wants to die first…” They look at each other while Jinki gives a slight nod, cueing Minho to grab me from behind while Jonghyun grabs one of my guns and Key lunges forward to grab the other while Jonghyun gives me an elbow to the face. Minho pushes me down face first into the table while Jonghyun tossed him a gun and he put it to the back of the my head.
"You're not here for water. You're with the Federation aren't you? Only the federation would be stupid enough to send an assassin in white leather into a fucking desert..."
Just then I manage to slip through Minho's grip but he catches my elbow and forces me back down onto the table.
"Don't you fucking..."
"Fuck off. You'll have to kill me."
"I got something better." Jinki says before pulling me up off the table, I struggle, and spit at Onew, who pushes me into a jail cell where I stumble and the guys surround me as the music fades in, and they begin peeling my clothing off one article at a time.
Heat it up baby
Heat it up baby
Heat it up until it's blinding white
Burn up the place baby, light me on fire
In nothing but my black lacy leotard, and thong...the guys leave me in the cell where I dance seductively to an instrumental breakdown with just the beat, bass and strings convincing the guys to let me join them with my dance.
Heat me up baby
Heat me up baby
Heat me up until I'm seeing white
Burn this bed baby, light it on fire
Convinced, they get me out of the cell and we set charges all over the place.
(Heat)
I can’t concentrate in this
(Heat)
I’m gonna disintegrate in this
(Heat)
If it gets any hotter I won’t have control of me."
(Heat)
I can’t concentrate in this
(Heat)
I’m gonna disintegrate in this
(Heat)
If it gets any hotter I won’t have control of …me"
The video ends with us running to my SUV where we drive off, and the place explodes behind us.
I was impressed with the production. We were given a glimpse of the PG version and it used clips of our dancing in lieu of naughty stripping and dancing scene with no cussing. Seeing how everything pieced together and was edited blew my mind. I couldn't believe that shortly I would be revealed to the rest of the world as the new leader and sixth member of SHINee. It seemed all surreal to me.
Next up was Slower which Edward explained would be released as a cable/satellite release only. As I watched it, I couldn't help but get flustered by it. It was like watching a soft porno starring me and I felt a little exposed by it with all the close-up shots of my body in questionable positions with the guys. Jake had done an amazing job capturing the raw sexuality that made up the song he also managed to get the scene where I was in the tiny red piece suit peppered throughout the video as well. I felt a hand on my leg and I looked down to see Jinki's hand there. I ignore his hand and continue watching the next video which was Can you hear me now?
This video too, was full of sexy dances and innuendo. I crossed my legs which bumped Jinki's hand off. David had done a beautiful job with the black and white imagery.
After Dark was next, and it was a fun video. Definitely a Halloween themed video for sure which it would be release around Halloween. All the guys were very convincing of the horror characters they played.
The last but not least video was Hardly Breathing. I was super-curious to see how Hiro put his take on it. Hardly Breathing was the hardest video shoot I had to do because it was dealing with such sensitive material, like bullying, domestic violence, relationship issues and most importantly suicide.
The video opens up with all of us dead.
Key shows up first, in a crashed car, slumped over the seat blood dripping from his fatal head wound. The digital clock on the car saying 6:33pm.
Bystanders surround Jonghyun's splattered body on the pavement, blood coming from his mouth, eyes, head, the clock on a nearby building says 6:33 pm.
Onew, gun handle held limply in his hand, blood still freshly dripping from it, you see a glimpse of his face splattered with blood and brain matter from the gunshot wound. A clock on his desk says 6:33 pm.
You see Taemin's mom (an actress) calling Taemin's name and she looks into the pool where she's sees Taemin's lifeless body floating. "Oh my God Taemin!!" The clock on the wall she passes by says 6:33pm.
Minho's hanging silhouette is seen from a wall and the camera pans on his face, rope tightly around his neck, face blue from asphyxiation. A digital clock on the wall says 6:33pm.
Finally the camera switches to empty bottles of a popular narcotic pain medication and the clock which says 6:33pm and to my lifeless body, my lips are blue, eyes closed and I'm laying flat on my back. You can see fresh bruises all over my face and a split lip. The music starts and the clock starts reversing. The screen splits six ways, and you see the time on the clocks begin to reverse slowly and pick up speed. My screen gets blown up to the center as my eyes pop open and I begin singing.
(Crystal)
Hardly breathing
Onew's fatal gunshot wound reverses and Minho's chair comes back underneath him and he takes the noose off. We begin reliving our last moments and what would've happened if we hadn't taken our lives. Both Onew and I face out a window while singing the next lyrics.
(Onew and Crystal)
Hardly breathing
Minho reaches over and flicks the light switch on in his room.
(Minho) Turn the lights on
I lipsync the lyrics as the video replays the moment I reveal I was pregnant to my abusive boyfriend who beats the crap out of me before throwing me down the stairs. The screen splits and see Onew and his wife fighting over over-due bills, and his wife takes his children and leaves the room.
(Crystal and Onew at the end)
I really wanna take you back
It's killin' me watching you walk away (yeah)
(Onew)
But my head ain't okay with that
And Lord knows how much I want you babe
The camera pans to me as my boyfriend drags me back up the stairs and throws me against the car, in which Jonghyun watches from across the street seeing my boyfriend yell at me to get an abortion. I looked over at him and my boyfriend. A glow appears around Jonghyun as the camera zooms into Jonghyun's eye and we watch what how his happy relationship turned sour when he catches his fiancee cheating in his bed.
(Onew and Crystal )
It hurts me but you can't stay (no)
During the bridge Key and Taemin start coming back to life and Jonghyun breaks out of his fated path and gets my boyfriend off of me and offers his help. He takes me to a hospital where it's learned I miscarried, but Jonghyun's there, comforting me. Onew is back at his office looking over his treatments, and what not. We see Key, crying in a doctors office, and on a medical file you see Stage 4: Metastatic Cancer then the doctor type in Terminal in the condition. Minho and Taemin are in the same school both getting viciously bullied by the same people.
Bridge:
(Onew and Crystal)
This old heart of mine, won't let you break it
Not again (not again)
Been hurt too many times and I can't take it
Not again (Cause I'm)
Chorus: (All) (Taemin & Key)
Cause I'm hardly breathing
(Crystal)
One more teary eye or sleepless night
Just might kill this heart of mine
Key begins walking to a clinic where Onew treats his cancer. We see Onew injecting Key with something. Minho and Taemin finally meet and realize they're getting bullied by the same people.
(All)
Hardly breathing
Hardly breathing
Verse 2:
(Minho, Taemin and Crystal )
Beggin' won't do nothing
Forgave you many times along the way (yeah yeah,(Jonghyun) ah (Taemin))
Jonghyun and I get back from the hospital to grab some of my things as Jonghyun and punches my boyfriend. While we're going back to his place his girlfriend calls and sings to her his line.
(Crystal)
My mama said don't trust him
(Jonghyun)
But deep inside my soul I found a place
And now I want you out baby
We see Key getting routine injections by Jinki and turns out, Jinki has a breakthrough cure for Ewing's Sarcoma and Key's file, Jinki deletes the terminal part and types in 'in Remission'. Jinki wins a ton of awards and his future is looking bright now because Key chose to walk into his office when he was down on his luck.
Pre-Chorus:
(Jonghyun, Crystal, Key)
This old heart of mine won't let you break it (no no)
Not again
Been hurt too many times and I can't take it
Not again
Taemin and Minho fight against the bullies. They have lunch together and develop a close friendship.
Chorus:
(All--Crystal and Onew)
Cause I m hardly breathing
(Jonghyun with Onew at the end)
(Cause one more teary eye or sleepless night
Just might kill this heart of mine
We see Jonghyun and I's future, we get married and I get pregnant again. Onew continues to successfully come up with breakthrough treatments with other types of cancer. Key is enjoying his life.
(Crystal) (Onew and Jonghyun)
Hardly breathing
Hardly breathing
Our paths all cross at a benefit and we meet each other while as we get together and sing the last chorus before the screen freezes and everything starts getting reversed to where we are where we started at the beginning of the video.
Bridge:
(Taemin, Minho, Onew)
Feels like I m on my last lifeline
And I can't take a chance, of not being able to breathe again
(Minho, Onew, Key)
Another heartbreak and I might die inside
So I learned from the last time
(Jonghyun)
That lovin' you ain't worth losing my life
Pre-Chorus: (Crystal and Onew Jonghyun)
This old heart of mine won t let you break it
Not again (not again)
It hurt so many times and I can't take it
Not again
Chorus: (All) (Crystal [ad])
Cause I m hardly breathing
(Crystal [hm] Minho [lm])
One more teary eye or sleepless night
Just might kill this (All come in)heart of mine
All the events taken place are being undone now going back to the beginning of the video.
(All--Jonghyun, Crystal and Onew)
Hardly breathing
Hardly breathing
(All)
Just might kill this heart of mine
We all sing before the screen go black, and you hear a car crash, a splash in a pool, a gunshot, a chair being kick out and a rope going taut and a flat line.
At the end of the video we appear.
"Hey everyone, we are shining SHINee." We all say.
"I know that this video may be really hard to watch for some of you, but it's a topic we all feel strongly about, which is suicide." I start out.
"Every year over 30,000 people commit suicide every year and that's a number that shouldn't even exist." Jinki says.
"Suicide should never be a thought to anyone. Everyone has a purpose in life." Jonghyun says.
"Every life has value, and if you ever think about committing suicide please 1-800-273-8255" Key says.
"We know life is hard, and life sucks at times but trust me, it's not worth taking your life." Minho says.
"You may feel alone in your struggle, you may not have anyone to turn to, but that's what the hotline is for, please call them if you are contemplating suicide." Taemin says.
"We love you!" We all say as the video fades to black and the suicide hotline number displays.
I had tears in my eyes by the end of the video. The lights were turned back on and I applauded. I was followed by the rest of the guys too in my applause.
"Outstanding job...that was amazing! I'm really excited now." Jinki said, looking at me.
"Me too. I think we'll have an amazing English debut and comeback for sure." Minho concurred.
I wiped my eyes as Jinki wrapped an arm around me in a comforting gesture. I smiled meekly at him.
"Okay, well now that you guys know what your videos look like, the next order of business is the press conference here in less than an hour. Now, Crystal, you're going to get a lot of questions thrown at you and some may even throw you off. We've had some questions submitted with responses tailored to answer the question effectively." The PR people started handing out folders and my was thicker than everyone else's. Now, the rest of you will be asked questions as well, and feel free to answer them if you must." I flipped through my binder and began reading over the Q and A for all the questions. "Now I'm going to release you guys to get your hair and make-up ready for the press conference follow Melody and she'll take you to another room where we have hair and make-up stations set up for all six of you."
We got up and Melody led us down the hallway to another meeting room where there were six hair and make-up stations set up with about 10 people all waiting for us.
"Okay Crystal, I'll have you here next to the door, your stylists are Kylie and Mark. Jinki you'll next to her..."
I shook the hands of Kylie and Mark as they introduced themselves before having me take a seat and getting right to work. I was able to look over the Q and A folder while Kylie and Mark worked on my hair and face. It didn't seem like very long before they were finished with me and they started packing their stuff up upon making their final touches. I looked at myself, and my lips were done in dark red lipstick, my eyes were smoky with white inner edges and black cat-eye eyeliner. My contouring was on point. My hair was done in gentle waves.
I got a good fifteen minutes or so to study the questions and answers folder before we were called to make our appearance. Lee Soo Man met us downstairs.
"Hello everyone, I'm going to go out first, your seats are marked with your name placards. You've had a chance to review the questions?"
"Neh." Came the collective response.
"Good, let's get out there and reveal what's to come for SHINee's debut!" Lee Soo Man said, as he held up his right fist. "Hwaiting!"
"Hwaiting!" We all cheered back before Lee Soo Man led the charge out to head table As soon as we entered there were lots of camera flashes and the sounds of cameras going off. I was blinded for a second but immediately found my spot as it was to the left of Lee Soo Man who was in the middle of table. Jinki was to Lee Soo Man's right, with Jonghyun next to him and Taemin next to Jonghyun while Minho was to my left, and Key was to the left of him. Each spot had a microphone, and a bottle of water along with a copy of the names of the members of press in attendance and the questions they would be asking.
Lee Soo Man got up and headed straight for the podium.
"Good Morning, I'd like to welcome you all to our press conference announcing and introducing Crystal Hammock as the 6th member of SHINee as well as announcing release information regarding the English cross-over album Heat. This is a collaborative is headed by both Sony Music here in New York and my company SM Entertainment. We are thrilled to be announcing this melding of styles and cultures and hope it will mark a new frontier for K-Pop and American Pop alike. The album's release date is September 30th of this year. I will now allow the members to introduce themselves before opening the floor for questions. We'll start with our newest and eldest member of the group, Crystal." My heart was racing.
"Good Morning, my name is Crystal Hammock, I am 27 years old and the leader of SHINee. I am one of the lead vocals in the group." I said, as I looked up at Melody who was standing around the corner who gave me a thumbs up.
"Good Morning, my name Jinki Lee, my stage name is Onew however. I am 24 years old and I too am one of the lead vocalists in SHINee."
"Good Morning, my name is Jonghyun Kim, I am 24 years old, and I'm the other lead vocalist." This got laughs out of people in the press.
"Good Morning, my name is Kibum Kim, but call me Key. I am 22 years old and I'm one of the lead visuals and rapper of SHINee."
"Good Morning, my name is Minho Choi, I too am 22 years old and I'm the other lead visual and rapper in SHINee."
"Good Morning my name is Taemin Lee, I'm 21 years old, and I'm the lead dancer and supporting vocalist in SHINee."
We then get up and give our traditional welcome, in English, before we sit down and the round of questioning starts.
"My question is for Crystal; How has your experience been with SM entertainment so far?" The sounds of the cameras was kind of distracting as my mind processed the question that was thrown my way.
"It's been great! I've learn quite a lot about the Korean language and Korean way of life. It's been a very enlightening experience for sure."
"My question is also for Crystal; How grueling is your schedule? Have you had difficulty adapting?"
"Oh it was grueling in the beginning, but it's lightened a bit now that studio and video recording is finish and the music production is in it's final stages. As for adapting, yeah, being a leader and performer is more taxing than I thought it would be, but I wouldn't take it back for anything. That's for sure."
"My question is for Crystal; What can we expect to see on this new album?"
"An edgier, unadulterated side of SHINee that's meant to relate to our older audience.
"So it's safe to say that they'll be more mature content with this album?"
"Yes."
"My question is for Onew and whoever else would like to comment; How have you and the other guys adapted to having a female in the group?"
"It's been a different experience. We've had to be more careful about our words and actions. It's been a very good experience however, different but good." Jinki said, glancing over at me.
"Yeah, having a female in the group has been and continues to be, an eye opening experience for all of us, I think I speak truthfully for the rest of the guys, right guys?" Key commented. There were a collection of yeses before Jonghyun spoke up.
"Having Crystal in the group helped me out a lot with songwriting because she could put a female point of view on things and challenged me to become better at my craft. I think it's strengthened the group as a whole."
"Thank you for answering honestly gentlemen. The next question is for Crystal..."
The line of questioning continued for another twenty minutes before Lee Soo Man got up and thanked everyone for coming and said that press releases will be available at the end of the work day and both Sony and SM's websites would also reflect the changes. Again he thanked everyone for coming out before we got up and walked back up to Edgar's office.
"Congratulations on completing your first press conference as the new SHINee! That went off without a hitch, you all are seasoned professionals and Crystal good job answering that question about the past with your ex-husband. You could've dodged that bullet but you chose you answer it truthfully and honestly and I admire that. Now onto the next order of business, your album artwork..."
There was a table set out with six different CD covers with various pictures from our photoshoot we did the other day. There were different fonts and colors used. Upon careful deliberation we came up with one we all liked and gave it to Edgar who called it into the design team. We then were give a packet of photos and we chose 30 that would go into the CD booklet, as well as a profile photo from another envelop that had 5 pictures to choose from for each of us. We signed our autographs into a digital scanner which would be added on the back of each photo card.
I had taken a few penmanship classes and my handwriting had gotten a lot better and more unique. I still had the cutesy bended lines they just didn't look so juvenile anymore.
Upon completing the tasks set out for us, we go back to the meeting room and get briefed about the schedule coming up for the next month prior to the album release and boy is it early. We get up as early as 3am for schedule briefings. We don't start making appearances until the 30th of August where we are to attend an music festival where we talk about our new music coming out.
Snippets of the songs and album are to be discussed. We are also scheduled go to South Korea around the 15th for a week then head over Tokyo for a week to promote the album before heading back to the US.
I was excited to leave the country honestly and I could tell the guys were too. It also meant we would be spending a lot a time as a group which meant no alone time between Minho and I and the rest of the guys. I hoped it could quell the tension between me and the rest of the guys.
We left the meeting with a renewed sense of excitement. I went to my rescheduled classes and studied hard as I had to be semi-fluent in Korean and Japanese by the time I would have to leave for Japan.
Before I knew it, the 30th was here and it was time to start promoting the album by making appearances on radio shows all over the US, starting in New York City before going to Atlanta, Chicago, Denver then to LA before we would take off toward Seoul.
It was my first time to Atlanta and LA but the guys were no strangers to traveling. While I struggled a bit with mild cases of jet lag, the guys were right there by my side throughout everything. I struggled pretty bad in the first week. By the 5th of September I had my sleep schedule down and on the 8th, we traveled to Atlanta. At this point I had all the answers to pretty much any question memorized. It was pretty relentless, one schedule after another until around 6pm, then we'd break for supper then I'd have my hour long classes with my tutors via Skype. It really sucked. I was literally getting 3 to 4 hours of sleep a night, if that.
On the 11th we went to Denver, before heading to LA on the 13th. The 14th was filled with schedules, but the 15th was free up until the 11:55pm flight, so you bet your ass I stayed in bed the whole day catching up on much needed sleep. I had been surviving on 5 hour energy shots, Starbucks Double-shots, and B-12 vitamins Key would give me. I was dead-ass tired. I think I woke up around 5pm from passing out after our last interview when we got back around 8pm. I woke up once to use the bathroom but that was about it. When I did wake up I had about 9 missed calls and nearly 30 unanswered texts. When I had gotten in my airport traveling clothes which consisted of my newly acquired travel jacket from Baubax which lightened my load nicely, a pretty, black and white glittery graphic T-shirt, some leggings, and some comfortable adidas tennis shoes. Once I had my items in order I called Minho first. The line rang a couple times before he picked up the phone. I could hear the guys talking in the background about something passionately.
"You're alive!" Minho chimed. It sounded like they were outside or something, as I heard cars passing by them in the background.
I let out a laugh, as a smile curved my lips in amusement. "Yeah! Hey, when are we going to the airport?"
"We're leaving here around eight, I think that's what manager Jin said." I could hear Key laugh loudly.
I raised my eyebrow upon hearing Minho mutter something to Key and static appear over the line. "Mm...I see, are we checking out soon then?"
"Yeah, we are. Are you dressed now honey? We grabbed some In n' Out hamburgers...I know you haven't had that yet..."
More laughter and I heard the elevator ding at just a couple doors down through my door. "Yeah! I'm ready, should I bring my bag? Will we be back for it?"
"No, you're in twelve o' eight right?"
A noisy group of guys stepped out of the elevator and stopped right outside my door. "Yeah, are you guys outside?"
"Open the door."
I got out of my chair as I started walking to door. "Aish, can't you knock?"
"He can't. Noona, just open the door, bye." I heard Key interject before he hung up the phone.
What did this guys have up their sleeve? I walked over to the door and opened it up. Standing there was Minho holding a cardboard carton of burgers, Jonghyun was beside him carrying the drinks and Jinki, and Taemin had what I was assuming were fries, or other food, while Key had Minho's phone. Each of them stepped inside my huge hotel suite. We were staying at the Omni, and I had gotten upgraded to a King Club Suite. The guys all got their own rooms and were upgraded to premium suites, but my room was too large for myself, so having the guys there was a great relief.
"Aigoo! You already went? I thought we were all going to go!"
"Bwoh? Your Korean is coming along nicely noona. Wow, what a room!" Jinki said as he walked into my room to see the huge dining table and living room. "I see why Minho recommended we use it. Look at that table."
"Yah, are you going to set the food on it or gawk at it all day?" Key sassed, and I couldn't help but laugh. He was feisty today.
Jinki mumbled something before setting the food down on the dark mahogany table. Minho set the burgers on the table. While Jonghyun and Taemin followed Minho and Jinki's lead.
I looked down at the large carton.
"How many are there?"
"I ordered 8 double-doubles. They've got all the same stuff on them. I ordered you some animal fries and a chocolate shake..."
"Yeah, one chocolate shake and Animal Fries-eu." Taemin said as he grabbed the items from the cup holder and a box out of one of the bags sitting on the table. The smell of the food was permeating the hotel room and it made my mouth water. I was starving.
"Animal fries?"
"Aish, haven't you had In n Out before?" Key asked, as he dug through the bags to grab his food out.
"No...this is my first time on the west coast." I stated, looking down at the food, as Minho grabbed a burger from the carton and set it in front of me as he asked me to sit down and eat.
"Aigoo...here, you got to try it then. It's like crack cocaine." Key said, as he picked up a burger from the carton. I could tell Jinki was at his wits end with him already and I let out a laugh as I patted Jinki's arm reassuringly.
"Yah! Key!" Jinki rebuked Key.
"What!?!? It's true. I crave this and it's our first stop for food every time we're in LA."
"It's not an illicit drug for God's sake."
"It's an American saying Jinki. Relax. I hope it's as good as you guys say it is...Bona' Appétit." I said as I grabbed the burger and took a bite. It was juicy, and tasted like a burger I cooked at home, minus the garlic and onion powder. It was nirvana in that first bite. I let out a moan as I savored that first bite.
"Ooh...it is good noona?" I looked up at Jinki and nodded, my mouth full of food.
"Eat your fries too noona, I ordered them well done for you. Hopefully they're still crispy." Minho said as the guys finished dividing up the food. We ate together. Everything was better than I thought it would be. Upon finishing our food, I helped clean up and grabbed my bag as when we finished, manager Jin called to come to the lobby to load the shuttle van up. I took in a deep breath knowing we were heading to Seoul now, which were the guys' stomping grounds. I was wired though, I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to sleep on the nearly 14 hour plane ride. Jonghyun told me I would be so bored out of my mind I would have to sleep before Key told me to sleep whenever I could, I would need it when we got to Seoul as jet lag was a bitch. With how packed our schedules were I couldn't leave it to chance. As soon as the first meal was done, I was going to take a Tylenol PM and hope it would be enough to knock me out.
We arrived at the airport but instead of going to the KAL Lounge, Jin used Sony's Star Alliance points and got us all in the Star Alliance lounge which from what I was told by Key was a much better lounge than KAL. I could see why the guys liked it, it was an oasis in the busy airport. Since we have a couple of hours to kill before boarding our flight, I figured it would be best to check out the lounge.
Minho went with me and I helped myself to some fruit and cheese with some crackers, along with a few olives. Minho made a plate before offering to get me a glass of wine. I ask him to get me some Riesling or Sweet Red wine if they have it. I grabbed my tablet out of my backpack and decided to catch up on some studying. Minho came back with a beer for himself and a glass of Riesling for me. He gave me a kiss as I took my glass as I continued to study Hangul and familiarizing myself with the Korean language.
Both Minho and I had segregated ourselves from the group and we ended up snuggling together on a couch there in the lounge. Minho kept refilling our drinks, and by the time the rest of the guys found us I was starting to get a little tipsy. Before we knew it, our flight was called for boarding and we all left the lounge and we headed to our gate loaded into the business class section of the plane. We were greeted by the flight staff and directed to our seats. Minho begged Jinki to switch seats so he could be next to me he was reluctant but did so out of kindness upon letting the stewardess the change.
Minho helped me store my carry on in the overhead bins before we took our seats. Both of us had a choice of juice or champagne to start with. We both chose champagne and toasted our flight to South Korea. We finished our champagne about five minutes before we were due to push back. By now the plane had filled up. Soon however, we were going down the runway and gaining speed for take-off. I always had the habit of grabbing the hand of whoever was next to me. Minho was good company. As soon as we hit cruising altitude one of the in flight meals were served, and we talked about all the things I needed to see in Seoul and talked about how my tutoring classes were coming along while we ate.
After dinner service I flattened my seat into a bed and a flight attendant hooked me up with a blanket and an extra pillow and I attempted to get some sleep. I somehow succeeded, since when I woke up we were flying over the Russian peninsula. Minho too, had fallen asleep sometime during the journey. Getting myself situated, my bladder was screaming at me so I managed to climb over Minho's extended seat and make my way to the bathroom. The lounge was up, so I grabbed some water and a bag of chips before making my way back to my seat. There was just under three hours left of the flight. The last in-flight meal was served and I had to wake Minho up for it. By now the other guys had roused from their sleeps as well. Before we knew it the plane was descending and plane was touching the tarmac in Seoul. It was still dark in Seoul, and I realized, as we were making our way through customs and the crowds of people, how much of an outsider I really was.
I was bumped into, and shoved out of the way as the fan girls managed to separate me from Minho. Somehow through the chaos, Taemin saw what was going on and wrapped his hand around my wrist before taking my hand in his and pulling me along side him. The girls tried the same thing, but Taemin firmly grasped my hand and glared at the girls trying to separate us. They got the hint and backed off a bit. Security finally stepped in and separated the guys from the rabid fan girls and gave us some distance as we headed straight out the airport and into an awaiting van.
"Aish, don't they know Crystal is a part of our group now..." Key clicked his tongue. "Stupid girls, did you see them push her? It was like they were trying to get her lost or something." He fumbled with his bag.
"It's not a big deal you guys. I'm fine." I then looked back at Taemin. "Thank you, Taemin."
"My pleasure noona. We can't have you getting lost." Taemin said, as he winked at me.
"So...are we all staying at the Intercontinental? Or what's going on there? I heard you guys might stay with family?"
"Um..."
"You're the only one staying there noona, the rest of us will be staying with family."
"What? Why? How is that going to work vehicle wise?"
"We all have our own vehicles noona, we can alternate picking you up when it's time to go to our schedules."
"Really? Why would you want to do that? Wouldn't that be putting you guys out of your way?"
"No. The Intercontinental is in the COEX. Really close to SM and KBS. You'll be right on the way."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, noona, we're sure." Jinki said, looking back and giving me one of his signature eye-smiles. I felt my face flush slightly, but didn't say anything else after that. It was a 45 minute drive from the airport in Incheon to the hotel. The guys played Kai Bai Bo to determine who would help me up to my room and Jonghyun was the lucky winner as they were all vying to get that spot to begin with. I was dropped off and Jonghyun grabbed our bags.
I check in, at the front desk honing my grasp of the Korean language well. The woman checking me in went red faced and stumbled over her words a bit realizing who Jonghyun and I were. She upgraded me to a presidential suite for free. I told her she didn't have to but insisted on it and waved over a bellboy to help us with our luggage. Jonghyun insisted on carrying his own while the bellboy grabbed mine and escorted us up to the room.
I was flabbergasted when we arrived it was a top floor room and it was beautiful. Jonghyun had set my bags in the bedroom while I was checking out the massive living room with floor to ceiling windows.
"Omo! Crystal! Come check out the bathroom! Whoa..." I walked to where Jonghyun was and I was blown away. The bathroom was beautiful and there was a huge whirlpool tub next to the windows. Jonghyun had taken a couple of pictures of the suite and sent them to the guys. Both of us were chilling in the living room when Jonghyun then looked over at me before setting his phone down on the glass desk. He grasped my wrist and pulled me to him.
"Let's kill some time hm? Come'ere." Jonghyun murmured before possessing my lips in a fiery kiss that took me by surprise. I allowed myself to be whisked away in the kiss and Jonghyun, getting turned on, pushed me down on the couch before jumping on top of me. My shirt and bra were peeled off of me and Jonghyun's hands explored my body, claiming it as his for the time being. I was enjoying myself and managed to get Jonghyun's shirt off when his phone began going off which had pulled us out of the lustful fog we were in.
"Mm, Jonghyun...your phone."
"Let it go to voicemail..." Jonghyun said, as he began unbuttoning my pants and began pulling them down my legs. "I have other things on my mind."
I pulled Jonghyun's hands off my pants and held them firmly in my hands. "Isn't your mom supposed to come get you though?"
"I only said that to not make the others suspicious. I've been wanting to get you alone...now relax." Jonghyun said, as he wiggled his hands out of my grasp before working my pants off my legs. I managed to stop him though as his finger worked their way under the elastic band of my panties. "Aish, what?" Jonghyun demanded, his eyes meeting mine.
"Jonghyun. We both know this this is a bad idea."
"Sh...I'm not going to have sex with you. I do want to see what Taemin was talking about though." Jonghyun said, as he successfully took my panties off and I now lay before him, naked. Jonghyun got on his knees on the couch between my legs and lifted my legs up where my womanhood was staring him in the face. "So pretty."
"Jonghyun...I--fuck!" Jonghyun began to lap at my sensitive flesh. "Mm."
"Aw...noona." Jonghyun nodded. "I think I heard a moan."
"Shut up." I said, as I let Jonghyun go down on me. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the pleasure Jonghyun was gracing me with.
"You know noona, Taemin's right. You taste wonderful. It's very addicting." Jonghyun purred, as he continued whirling his tongue around my sensitive clitoris. He would go back and forth between tongue fucking me to licking and sucking my clit. "I wonder if I can make you come noona..."
"Mm...keep doing that and you'll get me there." I said, as I glanced up at him, he looked so sexy looking down at me, his face between my legs. Jonghyun continued working his magic between my legs while encouraging me to be loud. Jonghyun was relentless, he wasn't going to give up easy, and after some time I felt a familiar tension begin building and I knew my orgasm was imminent and it was going to be big. I grabbed a throw pillow but Jonghyun pulled the pillow away from me and threw it across the room.
"I wanna hear you jagiya. Don't hold back."
"Jonghyun...oh my God..." I began shuddering as my orgasm washed over me, and Jonghyun grazed his teeth against my nub and Jonghyun's name was thrown from my lips like a desperate prayer as my orgasm built to a great crescendo, with it my voice picked up volume as well until I had lost control of everything for a few seconds before Jonghyun brought me back down to earth from the nirvana he brought me to just seconds earlier.
When Jonghyun pulled away, I was left breathless, shaky and in a state of recovery.
"Noona, you don't mind if I use your bathroom do you?" I shook my head.
"Go ahead." I said, taking a deep breath. Jonghyun leaned forward and kissed my lips before disappearing to find a bathroom. Meanwhile, I got myself together, knowing he had to take care of his rising problem below the belt. Once I was dressed again, I unpacked all my clothes and belongings before taking out my laptop. I updated my social media statuses and took pictures of the Seoul skyline before posting those as well.
I messed around on my laptop for a bit before I heard Jonghyun finish up in the bathroom. I knew that we had a bit of time to kill before we were supposed to be at the KBS building. I was checking out my Facebook time line when Jonghyun popped out of the bathroom.
"Hey noona, I got to get going, my mom and sister are here to pick me up..." Just then my phone chimed signifying I had a new text message. I glanced at it and it was from Taemin.
Hey noona, Key, Jinki and I were going for Korean BBQ before we head to the KBS building. Did you want to come along? ^.^ Please come with us noona!
I let out a snort of amusement as it was a little after 8am and they wanted to go for BBQ.
I looked at Jonghyun. "Hey Jong, before you go, what time is our meet at KBS?"
"At 10am. Taemin asked you about going to BBQ?"
"Yeah, is that normal here?"
"Oh yeah, anything is on the menu for breakfast, it's not just set to certain foods like it is in the US. Are you going to go?" Jonghyun asked as he pulled out the telescopic handle on his carryon luggage before looking at me.
I shrugged. "Yeah probably, I'm feeling a little hungry and could eat." I said, turning my attention to my phone to return Taemin's text message and there was a quick reply.
Good! Jinki-hyung should be outside, already. Tell Jonghyun his mom is getting impatient.
I let out a laugh as I grabbed my jacket again, making sure to grab my purse as well.
"You better get going Jjong, your mom is getting impatient."
Jonghyun stopped me as we made eye contact. He leaned forward and possessed my lips in another fiery kiss before pulling away and licking his lips. "Sorry noona, I just wanted to tasted your lips again. I'll see you at KBS okay?"
I nodded, my face turning red. "Yeah, see you later."
Jonghyun smiled at me before disappearing out the door. My phone chimed and this time it was Jinki.
I'm downstairs waiting for you.
I made sure I had some Korean won and my key cards to my hotel room before leaving to meet Jinki downstairs.
