Shadows in Daylight (1/1)

m style="font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;">“Lunch is ready!” Tiffany sprinted to check on Siwon who was completing his workout routine in his home gym. The minute she heard Tiffany calling him for lunch, Siwon brought down the weights and stood to walk out of the room.But fate seemed to be pretty playful on the both of them.She was about to walk inside the room and Siwon was about to go out when they met halfway through the door.He was shirtless.And she was speechless.It was not the first time Tiffany saw him like that. In some performances, her boyfriend would strip off right in front of the fans. He did photoshoots with his perfect bare top showing and once when they were dating, Tiffany cured his injuries and he also had no shirt on.Maybe it was a little hormone trick that made her feel awkward seeing Siwon bare topped like it was her first time. Her eyes weren’t free from seeing his all tensed up muscles, sweat budding on his tan skin and his messy throng of facial hair. He is a sin standing in front of her. She can’t help but feel the blazing temperature of the room even if the AC was on.“Hey you okay baby?” Siwon grabbed by the shoulders and her gaze shifted to him.“Um-yeah. Uh-““I’m done, do you mind if I’d take a shower before we eat?” he asks and at the same time trying to find out what made his girlfriend go perplexed for a few moments.“O-Okay.” she shakes as soon as she heard him talk. It’s like every single thing about him now is turning her on. She finds a way to let the stroppy, stinging air out and remembered she brought a towel for him to use.“You-you shouldn’t let your sweat dry off. You-you’ll get sick b-baby.” she hurries to wipe off the sweat building up on her boyfriend’s face and neck with the towel she brought. Tiffany tried to keep her stare away from what is considered to be an eye candy. All the while Siwon had this grin on his face seeing how cute Tiffany acts peculiarly around him today.“My baby is so sweet. I love you!” and he left a quick kiss on her lips and he left the room to take his shower.She stood there still stunned. What the hell did you just do this time Choi Siwon?***Tiffany was busy doing the dishes when Siwon hugged her from the back. She pretended not to mind him and continued with the housework not until Siwon rested his chin over her shoulders and started smelling her hair.“My baby is extra clingy today.” she comments. Observing him over dinner, he kept on talking how good the food was and how he would love to wake up to it everyday. That, along with other unnecessary remarks like how pretty she was without make-up and how much he likes her staying with him. Siwon just kept mum and cherished her presence.“I’m sorry.” he breaks into guilt.“Hm, for what baby?” Tiffany put down the plate she had on her hands and looked over Siwon. He looked like he did something wrong to say he’s sorry on such an abrupt moment but it felt like it was nothing beyond serious that he would ask for pretense first hand.“I have to leave later at midnight, I’m going to Hong Kong.” he lets go of the big gasp of air he just took in.“What’s wrong about that? It’s not like you’re not coming back right?” she faces him but all he can see is her fiancé’s gloomy expression.“Uh, there’s something that-um, you need to know.” Suddenly Tiffany felt tense hearing Siwon talk like that. The sudden plot thickens as they both eyed each other’s expressions. Siwon couldn’t utter a single word and Tiffany can’t move a muscle.“You sound so serious, you’re making me nervous!” her hand found a way to slap the guy beside her, but much more than that, Tiffany wanted to shake the hell out of Siwon and tell her what was going on.“I-I have this uh, project when I go to Hong Kong, but I can’t come back until it’s done.” His lips were pursed, and his eyes were staring at her deeply that it almost moved her soul. It was hard for him to be away for that long, and the thought of leaving her for that short while would be unbearable.“It would take a while, and I-I’m sorry if you have to wait.” The guilt was taking over the tone of his voice. Siwon never felt that despondent towards leaving his fiancé for a time. They just got over some weighty consequences on their relationship, he just knows that this wouldn’t be a good time to be separated from each other.She never spoke a word and her eyes were locked with his. Tiffany was confused of what to feel.“Come on, it will be alright.”She couldn’t take the self-pitying Siwon anymore that she sandwiched him into a tight, loving hug.“It’s just two months. Before you know it, you’ll be back home. Besides, I have work to do too. Two months will pass quickly, I promise.” Their lips locked for a moment as Tiffany got him going with a captivating kiss. It was like magic that took Siwon’s vexing mind of being away from his ladylove.“I’ll miss you. I should have thought of this first before getting in to it. I don’t want to set back on our plans. I-It doesn’t feel right.” The panic behind him instills.“Don’t think about me too much baby. You love doing this right? I know this will make you happy and fulfilled about work and I’m not going to forgive myself if one day I stop you from doing the work you love.” She cupped his face eager to let him know of her opinion. Tiffany didn’t want to be unfair with Siwon, a slight sacrifice would make the two of them work.“O-kay. So that’s awkwardly, um, cheesy.” Their conversation indeed got serious. Siwon pulled in his derp face and gave out his amusing smirk. She chuckled a bit before standing up and pulling Siwon with her in the process.“Let’s go pack your things.” She tugs Siwon’s arms and forcefully dragged him out of the couch. The stubborn boy didn’t want to move an inch, he made it the other way around and eventually grabbed Tiffany’s arm making her prone on top of him.“I love you, always remember that.” His chest let out a heave.“I was never wrong about choosing you. I love you most!” Once again her stomach was filled with butterflies as Siwon’s loving stares slowly melt her insides. His handsome face definitely had her head in the clouds. His sense of security and how he always makes Tiffany feel that she’s the perfect match for him.***“Tiffany, we’ll be leaving in ten minutes! Aren’t you done yet?” Sunny almost tear down Tiffany’s room door from pounding. They were preparing for a schedule that day and Tiffany woke up late. If it weren’t for staying up all night with Siwon on the phone she wouldn’t have a hard time waking up and getting ready at early morning.“Geez what took you so long?!” Finally the pink princess decided to get out of her fortress and join her members. Sunny had this confusion on what was happening with her. Tiffany was usually the strict one with time and schedules, but it seems that the lady had a bolt missing that day.“I heard someone giggling at 2 in the morning, came from the adjacent room.” Taeyeon jokingly retorted and it didn’t take long when Tiffany smacked her head for such a remark. It wasn’t her fault that Siwon was playing with his words and kept on courting her with his sweet texts. Plus the fact that he sung her to sleep, it made their short conversation a little special.“Not funny, Taeyeon.” She flashed a sharp look on the little dork. When the members tease her anything about Siwon or how they are as a lovey dovey couple, Tiffany is always the one who gets bothered first, which makes her the favorite mock item around the group. But they always do it just for fun, because their modern day fairytale was always an inspiration to others.As they head out of the dorms to get on their service van, one of them noticed something peculiar just by the doorway.“Hey, did somebody ordered flowers?” Hyoyeon asked. Everyone just kept their shoulders shrugged; clearly nobody would initiate to buy flowers when they usually get it after a performance or a guesting.“Oh, those are pink roses. Aren’t those Fany unnie’s favorites?” Seohyun added.Tiffany looked intently at the bouquet sitting by the doorway. Indeed they were pink roses, like those Siwon likes to give her during their anniversary dates, but why would he send one on an ordinary day? She doesn’t remember celebrating any occasion for that matter. She tried to shake off the thought that the package was for her.“Ani, I don’t think that’s for me. I don’t remember celebrating anything today.” Tugging her bag, she called in the girls and suggested that they ignore the mysterious gift.“Oh look! It has a card. It says: ‘To my lovely pink princess, lovely pink flowers to brighten up your day.” Yuri read the card as she picked up the bunch of flowers.  Tiffany stopped on her tracks and turned to Yuri’s direction.“Ugh. Lovebird problems. Let’s get going guys before we melt into too much mushiness here!”  Taeyeon playfully sniggers and made everyone crack in laughter. Tiffany got the bouquet of roses and was still puzzled of why Siwon would do such a thing. But the thought of Siwon being miles away and sending her these exquisite set of her favorite blooms made her heart skip a beat. He was really the ideal gentleman.It was just seven in the morning but the pink roses from him already made her day.***“So how was my baby’s day? Not yet sleepy?” the usual every night, they were both on the phone again.“It was okay. You didn’t text me the whole day baby, I thought you already forgot about me.” she whimpers like a five-year old, Siwon could imagine the pout she’s making right now. If he were only beside her, he would kiss her cherry lips a thousand times over.“Ah, oppa is sorry. I was busy filming the whole day. I was really looking forward onto calling you, I miss that loud voice by my phone line.”  Siwon teases and laughed at how her girlfriend reacted. She’s such a sweetheart even if they were just talking on the phone.“I’ll forgive for that! If not for those pink flowers you sent me today.” She plays guilt game, remembering those pretty roses she received earlier that day.“Mwo? Pink flowers? I-I didn’t send anything today?” Siwon scrunched up hearing that from her.“Wae? I thought those came from you?” Now, they are both getting confused. A/N: KYAAAAAA!!! 3 OUT OF 3 OF MY UPDATE SPREE!
