(SHINee ONEW / JINKI) Onew's Love Story: UNSTOPPABLE

15) I KNOW IT. I JUST DO.

ONEW'S POV.

I enter the room and I find Amy standing, looking at me. She and I look at each other in silence for a long time. I don't know if it was just me but I thought that the silence wasn't awkward. Just like earlier, before we were interrupted by the loud commotion outside the door. It felt as if it was a natural and yet a meaningful time of silence. I continue to look at her and after a while, she smiles.

That one small movement she made made me feel at ease and... her smile was... beautiful. I remember how I saw her for the first time at the concert. And I remembered how amazing her smile was to me. Now that I think about it, I feel very lucky to have run into this wonderful girl and I know that whatever I do for her sake, it will all be worth it. I continue to look at how her smiling in such a beautiful way and without thinking, I walk up to her and I put my arms around her. I lower my head so that my head is resting on her shoulder. And I deeply breathe in and out. I am able to breathe in her scent. I smell a faint vanilla fragrance and for some reason, I feel as if its the most natural thing ever.

Amy seemed startled for a quick moment when I grabbed her and wrapped my arms around her but within seconds, I could feel her small, delicate hand patting my back. She knew exactly what I needed and I was touched by how she is just as quiet as I am right now. It's as if she knows what to do. As I continue to process all my thoughts in my head, I really am happy for being able to meet her. At the thought of this, I realize that I don't want to let go of such a wonderful person. I hug her tighter and I tell Amy in a whisper, "Thank you, I knew that you were worth it." As I think more about it, I really am thankful for the fact that I was able to meet Amy. She truly is worth it, I just knew it.

AMY'S POV.

I didn't know what to do. I knew that I should say something but at the same time, I feel like it would be better for me to not say anything. I don't have an exact reason of why I think that way but, I just know that the atmosphere right now feels very... right... I think we stay like that for quite a while, I am just quietly patting him on the back in order to somehow comfort him and he has his head leaning on my shoulder, his arms wrapped around me. But then, Onew lifts his head just so that he is able to look me straight in the eyes. I can feel his breath on me. We are still quiet, looking into each other's eyes until he speaks. "I'm sorry. I should be the one comforting you... You must be so confused and hurt right now." He lifts one hand from around me and brushes his fingers through his hair. He then pushes away a strand of hair from my face. And he speaks again, "I am so sorry. Are you okay?"

Again, I am not positively sure of why or how I have this feeling but, I just know that the person in front of me is such an amazing person. I have this feeling that he holds many secrets and is hurt in many ways behind the smile I always see on the TV screen. I realize that the person in front of me, Lee Jinki, Is so much more than a Hallyu celebrity who recieves love from fans and friends. He is a person. A person with feelings, thoughts, emotions, and most importantly, a person like me.

I guess you could say I was lost in my thoughts because I hear Onew say, "Amy? Are you okay? I just want to make sure..." I look at him and I smile. I tell him that I am fine and I was just lost in thought. What he says next startles me. "Amy, I know that we barely just met but if you are okay with it, you can lean on me and cry."

I didn''t know how to react to his words. After I process the words in my head, I slowly pull myself away from Onew (yes i know i this sounds absurd ><) and I walk towards the area where the door is. But I am stopped because Onew strides over to where I am and blocks me. "Amy, it is not a safe time to go out of the room right now... If it's because you need some time to think or just need some fresh air, just wait a little bit longer. I bet it would be okay after a couple hours..." I just nod at what he says.
