“Hessa? What are you doing here, darling?” Jonghyun asked with a surprised smile as he came into the waiting room at the car mechanics shop.
She looked up from her magazine at the idol and smiled, getting up to hug him as he came and sat beside her. “Oppa! I think I should be asking you what you’re doing here! Ah, someone backed into my car the other day and did some damage to the back. They didn’t even get out to try and see if I was in there or not.” She sighed and pulled her long hair over her shoulder and ran her fingers through it.
“Were you inside?” He asked with a small smile, just joking around.
She smiled right back at him and chuckled, shaking her head. “No, thankfully. I was in the SM building with you guys.”
“Ah, guess I should tell your big brother about this little accident then, huh?” He said, taking out his phone and grinning.
Her eyes widened and she shook her head. “No, no, no! Don’t tell Kibumie! He’ll flip out and get all embarrassing and tell my parents!” She said, trying to snatch his phone away from his hands.
He laughed and pocketed the device again. “Ah, that sounds like Key alright. Don’t worry, I’m just joking around.”
“You joke around quite a lot, Jonghyun Oppa.” She said, pouting and crossing her arms and legs at him. “Hey, why are you here anyways? Don’t you have work today?”
“Ah, we had a day off, so I volunteered to take the company car out to get the oil changed. I needed a break from the guys anyways. It’s… it gets annoying living with four other guys all the time.” He said, scratching the side of his head cutely.
“Ah, I know. I’ve lived with Key for plenty of years before ya’ll. I know what that’s like.”
The two shared a laugh and continued talking. When one of the mechanics came into the waiting room and asked for Hessa, she got up and went over to the counter to see what he had to say.
“I’m sorry to tell you this, Ma’am, but your car was messed up worse than we thought. The person must’ve backed up into your vehicle with some force. A lot of the muffler has damage and pushed into the other pipes below… it’s going to take about a week to replace some of the parts.”
“A week?! Really!? Aish, great… ah, thank you. So then, can I go? Can I pay you when I come to pick it up again?”
“Yes, that’s fine. Sorry for the inconvenience.”
“No, no… it’s fine. Thanks again.”
She turned around with a heavy sigh and walked back over to Jonghyun, not looking happy. He frowned a little and looked up at her. “What is it?” He asked.
“My car’s back end got totaled on the inside. I won’t have it for a week… I can already feel the aching feeling of an empty wallet.”
“Kim Jonghyun?” The same mechanic called for him.
“Just a second, darling.” He said, getting up to finish up with his own car things.
Hessa grabbed her purse and hat and started walking with him out of the door. “Jonghyun, can I catch a ride back with you?” She asked. “I wouldn’t be able to make it by walking.”
He chuckled. “Of course. I’m a good Oppa.” He smiled at her and opened her door for her, like a true gentleman.
Her cheeks turned a light pink and she smiled softly at him. “Yeah, you are a good Oppa. Thanks.” She slid in the seat and buckled in. Jonghyun got back into the driver’s seat and backed up and out onto the streets, starting to drive the two back to his dorms.
“Hey, Hessa? Do you want to stay and hang with us for a little while?”
“You just don’t want to be left alone with them, do you?”
“Not really…”
She laughed with him and nodded. “Yeah, that’d be nice. Maybe I can control Kibumie a little bit. Would that make Oppa happy?”
Jonghyun blushed a little bit and grinned, shaking his head. “Yes it would, Umma.”
She chuckled and rolled down the windows in the stuffy car. Jonghyun turned on the radio for the two to listen to as they neared his dorms, but could only laugh the entire way home when she put in one of Key’s mix tapes and the most random songs started playing. First it was the carrot song, then the milk song, and then the gummy bear song.
“Why does he listen to this?!” Jonghyun asked through his laughter.
“I put these songs on here to annoy him. I did it when I was little!” She said, blushing bright pink and smiling wide as she sang along to them.
When they got back to his dorms, Key and Onew were the only ones there. Minho and Taemin had both left the house because Key was spazzing out earlier about nothing, and no one wanted to be around to see him start foaming at the mouth. When Hessa walked in the door and Key saw her, he jumped up and ran right on over to her, glomping her in a big hug. He brought her into the kitchen, concerned that she hadn’t eaten yet today.
“Key, it’s only one-thirty.” She told him.
“Doesn’t matter! Eat something with me!” He retorted back.
Onew and Jonghyun filed into the kitchen at Key’s demand and sat down at the table, talking mindlessly while the Umma of the house made up some leftovers from the night before. Then he had spaghetti-o’s for himself. Jonghyun warned Key that they were Taemin’s, but Key just laughed and said, “He’s got more.”
It was always crazier when Key’s baby sister came over. So when Minho and Taemin returned home, she wanted to add to the craziness and told Taemin that Key had eaten some of his spaghetti-o’s. Taemin screamed and started a game of chase around the house with Key. Everyone crowded onto one couch and watched and listened to the wild ones as they ran in and out of the living room and jumped on and over the furniture. Seeing this would last until Taemin chased Key to the grocery store to get more of his beloved spaghetti-o’s, Jonghyun offered to take Hessa home.
When they got into the car again and pulled out of the drive way, she told Jonghyun, “I can see why you wouldn’t want to be left alone with them for more than an hour.”
“Exactly my point.” He said, smiling and nodding. “Hessa, if you ever need a ride, just call me, okay? It will benefit us both. You get your ride, and I get away for a moment.”
She giggled. “Oppa, you’re so mean to them.”
“Ah, they give me headaches~ it’s another fair trade-off.”
“Oh, okay. Well, thank you. Guess now I get my own chauffeur idol, huh?”
“In a way, yeah!” He flashed a charming grin at her, making her shiver and blush.
Hessa shyly looked away and fiddled with her thumbs. The silence was comfortable and pleasant between them as they drove to her house. When they pulled up in front, she thanked him again.
“No, no, let me.”
She blinked in slight confusion, but then just blushed a deeper red when he opened her door again for her and offered his arm for her to take. He walked her up her sidewalk to her front door, though she took his arm with a shy smile and looked down out of nervousness.
“Ah, Hessa~ you’re so pretty and full of aegyo. Don’t hide your beautiful face behind your hair…” He whispered, brushing some strands behind her ears.
“A-ah… Jonghyun Oppa?” She whispered softly. “What are you…?”
He chuckled, stopping at her doorstep. With his hands in his pockets, he gave her a dashingly bright smile and leaned in, placing his lips over hers in a delicate kiss. When he pulled back, leaving the young girl in wide-eyed shock, he chuckled and said, “I’ll come by tomorrow morning to give you a ride to SM. Kay? Sleep well tonight, love.”
Jonghyun turned after kissing her cheek and walked back to the car, leaving Hessa to ponder just what she was going to have to tell her brother if Jonghyun did that in the car again…
