Under the Rain (1/1)

I accidentally posted CHAPTER 17 TWICE. Please go back to CHAPTER 18; I edited the chapter and posted the correct one. :) I Love You – Jay Park (ft.

When MinYoung was about to place the last piece of steak into her mouth, she noticed small droplets falling on the window. Little by little, the droplets scattered on the window until rain lightly poured down. “Look, oppa. It’s raining,” MinYoung nudged Yoochun and pointed at the window. --- Junsu and AeRin sat by the waiting shed and anticipated for Yoochun and MinYoung. Since they find the two eating boring to watch, to kill some time, they’ve played games such as rock, paper, scissors, and thumb wrestling. After a couple of rounds with thumb wrestling, AeRin noticed MinYoung looking at their direction. “Oppa! Hide your face! I think unnie saw us!” AeRin panicked as she covered her face with her hand. Junsu covered his as well. AeRin took a little peek and saw MinYoung pointing by the window. “Shoot!” AeRin covered her face again.“Yoochun hyung’s going to kill us if MinYoung finds out we’re spying on them!” Junsu said in fright. They continued to cover their faces. Suddenly, they heard soft tapping on the shed they’ve been sitting under. “Eh?” AeRin put down her hand and looked around. She saw the rain lightly pouring from the dark sky. AeRin looked back to the restaurant and saw Yoochun and MinYoung having a serious conversation. “I guess unnie noticed the rain and not us,” AeRin wiped a sweat. “What’s happening?” Junsu asked, still covering his face.“We’re safe. Unnie didn’t saw us,” she took his hand away from his face. Junsu sighed in relief. “It’s raining,” he noticed.“Yeah, I think that’s what unnie noticed. She loves the rain,” she said as she shivered when a cold wind blew past them and Junsu noticed it. He took off his coat and draped it over AeRin.“Thank you, oppa,” she shyly bowed. Junsu and AeRin just sat in silence as they watched the rain. “There was a time,” AeRin began, “when I was little, it rained so hard that I went out of our house and danced under the rain,” she giggled as she reminisced. “When umma found out, she was so mad. I was afraid of her that I ran and let her chase me in the rain,” she added. Junsu laughed. “I never thought you would do that,” he chuckled. “I was curious on how the rain would feel on my skin. I felt so free when I danced under the pouring rain. It was just amazing. However, umma and I got sick for three days,” she continued, laughing. “I didn’t know you have a love for dancing,” he faced her.“Dancing has always been my passion. It’s something that I treasure the most besides my family, friends and career,” she smiled at him.“How come I didn’t know anything about this? We could’ve danced together during high school and college,” he said.“I know how much you love dancing, oppa. Everyone knows you’re good at it. Only unniedeul knows about this secret passion of mine. I just don’t want people to expect something big from me. Besides, my skills are nothing compared to yours,” she shook her head.“Hey,” he lifted her chin and met eyes with her, “dancing doesn’t have any limitations or boundaries. If you feel free whenever you dance then dance. Don’t mind what other people may think of your dancing skills. Believe in yourself that you’re capable of doing so,” he told her.“Thank you, oppa,” she told him. Then, a playful smirk played on his lips.“Hey, want to dance under the rain?” he playfully wiggled his eyebrows.“Stop it, oppa. We might get sick,” she told him.“I don’t care,” he stood up and went out of the shed. Soon, he was drenched in rain. Junsu began to dance freestyle. “Oppa, get back in here or you’ll get sick!” AeRin scolded him. She stood from her seat and reached out to pull Junsu back into the shed. Unfortunately, Junsu was stronger than her so she got pulled out of the shed. She’s now wet from head to toe. Instead of getting mad at him, AeRin laughed in delight and twirled around the rain. Junsu bumped his hips on hers, telling her to dance. Hesitantly, AeRin began to dance. After warming up with Junsu, they began to dance together. AeRin once again felt free like the time she danced when she was a child. Junsu extended his hand to her and she inserted her hand on his. He twirled her around, pulled her against him and dipped her. AeRin let out a hearty laugh and Junsu softened. He straightened AeRin’s stand and she extended her arms, feeling every bit of the rain. “I love you,” Junsu blurted out.“Excuse me?”AeRin was taken aback.“I can be a flirt around other girls and be a pervert at times but AeRin-ah, I like you. I really really like you,” he told her.“Oppa~” her voice faded.“It’s okay. I just wanted to tell you how I feel. You don’t have to like me back,” he assured her.“But I do!” she cried out.“What?!”“I said I like you, too. You don’t know how upset I get whenever you flirt with the other girls or with my unniedeul,” she told him.“You mean.. you.. I.. wow!” he said in disbelief. AeRin laughed.“Wait. Does that mean that we’re.. I mean, together now?” he asked, pointing back and forth at him and her.“I guess so,” she raised her shoulders. Junsu hugged AeRin. He lifted her off the ground and twirled around. Junsu set AeRin on feet and gently cupped her face in his hands. “I love you,” he said softly.“I love you, too,” she said back. Junsu leaned in and crashed his lips on hers. AeRin smiled as he kissed her with so much love. Suddenly, Junsu abruptly pulled away. “So you get jealous whenever I’m flirting with other girls?” he asked still cupping her face.“Guilty. Yes,” AeRin nodded. Junsu laughed and pecked AeRin’s lips. ~•♥•~
