Eunhyuk
Our Timeline
"I was seven and you were nine, I looked at you like the stars that shined, in the sky, the pretty lights..."
"Aileen, this is my friend, Mrs Lee, and that is her son, Eunhyuk. We'll leave you two here to get acquainted while we go shopping, ok? Now, don't run around! Eunhyuk, you must take care of Aileen. See you soon!" Mrs Koh waved her hand and hastily made her way down to the shops with Mrs Lee, leaving the two children standing there, gaping at their mothers' backs.
There was an awkward silence in the air as the two children looked at each other bashfully and then turned away. Aileen stole a peek at Eunhyuk from the corner of her eye; His oval-shaped face was framed by long, curly locks of light, amber brown hair. His warm brown eyes shone with excitement, yet had a hint of shyness in them. His cheeks were flushed slightly pink, and his heart melting smile was disarming. In fact, he kind of resembled...a monkey. Nonetheless, he was an exceptionally adorable monkey, not to mention very good-looking for a boy of nine.
But even if Eunhyuk was the world's most handsome man, Aileen still would not have the courage to say hi first. She played with the hem of her blouse, hemming and hawing away, wondering how to approach Eunhyuk. Then, like a bolt out of the blue, Eunhyuk thrusted a hand into her face.
"H-hi. I'm Eunhyuk. Let's be friends!" Eunhyuk stuttered nervously, not quite looking Aileen in the eye. Eunhyuk had never been around girls much, so being near Aileen made him break out in cold sweat. But since he was the boy, and Mummy always said a boy would have to be gentlemanly, Eunhyuk decided to take the initiative to engage this younger girl in conversation.
Aileen took Eunhyuk's hand and shook it apprehensively. Eunhyuk's hands were soft and gentle, and Aileen felt a tingling sensation when their skin touched. "H-hi, I'm Aileen, nice to meet you. I'm seven this year. You're nine right? Mummy has told me quite a bit about you..."
"Yea..."Eunhyuk gave an embarrassed chuckle as he scratched his head. The two said nothing much after that, the atmosphere between them once again returning to uneasy mode. It was just like the phrase,"So close, yet so far". Aileen and Eunhyuk were barely two metres away, yet both kept to themselves, their own separate private worlds a million miles away from each other's.
A fat boy with curly black hair sauntered up to both kids. Without warning, he grabbed Aileen's pigtails and twisted them. Hard.
"Ah!" Aileen gave a gasp of pain as she felt her hair getting twisted.
"Let go of her!" Eunhyuk growled, startled and annoyed that she was getting bullied. A mysterious emotion was bumbling up inside Eunhyuk...Something which felt like white, boiling anger. Eunhyuk clenched his fists as he await the bully's reply.
"Well...I don't want to! This is so fun!" the bully jeered as he yanked Aileen's hair sharply. Aileen shrieked, tears threatening to spill out of the corners of her eyes.
Eunhyuk took one look at Aileen ,who was pleading to be let off, and felt his heart being twisted. A shadow passed over his face as he hissed,"Let. Her. Go."
"No."
Wham! Eunhyuk's fist came into contact with the bully's jaw. Dumbfounded, the bully loosened his grip on Aileen and Aileen struggled free. The bully clutched at his mouth and hobbled around in pain. He started running around like a chicken with its head cut off and sobbed,"Oh, my gums are bleeding!"
A sly grin crept up Eunhyuk's lips as he stuck his foot out. The bully tripped over it and fell spectacularly onto the floor, face down. He banged his forehead on the ground and Eunhyuk just looked away nonchalantly. Inside, however, Eunhyuk was laughing like a mad man. By now, the bully was a blubbering mess. Howling away with fear, he scrambled off to find his mummy.
Eunhyuk knelt down beside a crying Aileen, soothingly whispering,"There, he's gone, don't cry. He won't bully you anymore." Gently brushing his thumb over Ailee's cheeks, he wiped away her tears.
"It hurts,"Aileen pouted, massaging her head.
"Don't worry. From now on, with Eunhyuk by your side, you'll never have to worry again. Because Eunhyuk is your superhero and he'll always rescue you," Eunhyuk promised Aileen solemnly.
"Thank you, my superhero..."Aileen raised her head to kiss Eunhyuk on the cheek...
"I was sixteen when suddenly, I wasn't that little girl you used to see, but your eyes still shined, like pretty lights..."
"Yah! Eunhyuk! Where are you taking me?"Aileen complained loudly. Eunhyuk had blindfolded her and was leading her to some unknown place by holding her hand. "Wait, we're almost reaching,"Eunhyuk tried to reassure the impatient girl. "Sure, I could wait all day along," Aileen muttered sarcastically. Eunhyuk caught this and grinned; it was just so typical of Aileen.
However, in spite of herself, Aileen secretly enjoyed clinging on to Eunhyuk for dear life. Ever since Eunhyuk had saved her from the bully, the two little innocents became almost inseparable best friends. If Eunhyuk was a monkey, then Aileen was his tree branch. It was also after they became close that Aileen had started to fall for Eunhyuk and his totally adorkable mannerisms. The annoying thing was that Eunhyuk gave no indication of his feelings towards Aileen. It kept Aileen both happy and tired, tyring to guess what exactly was on Eunhyuk's mind. Therefore, it was Aileen's little secret that she felt over the moon that Eunhyuk was at least linking hands together with her. Even a little bit like this would make her contented.
"Ok, we're here!" Eunhyuk chirped and removed Aileen's blindfold. Aileen eyed him warily, eyebrows raised, before turning around to get the biggest shock in her life.
Eunhyuk had brought her back to the playground where they had first met so many years ago...except that it had transformed tremendously. A giant white tent had emerged there out of nowhere, so the playground was now caved in.
"Woah! Where did that come from?"Aileen's eyes were as round as dinner plates and her mouth became a gaping flap.
"Let's go in and see, my princess..."Eunhyuk suggested coyly, his eyes hiding a hint of slyness. He pulled her arm and dragged her in along with him.
"Gah! He's holding on to my hand again! I suddenly feel so faint and light...like I'm surrounded by happiness~"Aileen's cheeks changed from their original pale colour to a beautiful peach pink as she mentally fangirled about Eunhyuk holding on to her hand.
As the two entered the tent, it dawned on Aileen that Eunhyuk had arranged this surprise specially for her. Inside, there was a path leading from one end of the room to the other end. The walkway was surrounded by pink heart-shaped balloons. Aileen had started to stride over to the other end of the room, but Eunhyuk had already carried her up, bridal style and confidently made his way over to the other end.
As Aileen neared their destination, she realised that there was an ice sculpture there which formed the words...Eunhyuk Loves Aileen...
Eunhyuk placed her back down on the floor. Aileen stared, captivated by the beautiful ice sculpture. She felt hot tears pricking at the ends of her eyes...
"Aileen!" Eunhyuk started waving his hands in front of her frantically, hysterical when she didn't respond. Then he noticed the tears in her eyes that were threatening to spill out and he apologised,"I'm sorry. If you don't like it, I'll..."
His words were cut short when Aileen suddenly stood on tiptoe and gave him a gentle peck on the lips. Burying her head into his chest, she murmured,"Dear Eunhyuk, I love you too..." Eunhyuk rubbed her head affectionately and returned the hug. The two stood there for a long time, locked in a tight embrace. They were so close, not even a sheet of music could go between them...
"I'll be eighty-seven and you'll be eighty-nine, I still look at you like the stars that shined, oh my my my my..."
Time had flew by and the two were already great-grandparents. However, their relationship was still as strong as ever. After all, what was time but an unimportant distraction is true love?
As Aileen stood on the balcony, Eunhyuk came up behind her and snaked his arms around her waist tightly, hugging her from behind. Nibbling her ear in affection, he whispered,"Dear Aileen, even if the seas evaporate or the world explodes, my love for you will go on and on...I love you..."
Aileen closed her eyes. "I love you too, my monkey..."
The End

Sorry Aileen, this was really fail! I'm currently working on a time limit and it's 2.40 am...so I'm not in the best state of mind now. Forgive me for my abysmal writing, I'll make it up to you when I have time. I love you. Happy birthday!!!
