I LOVE YOU MY FRIEND (FAN FICTION) (CHAPTER 23)

CHAPTER 23

    

    "So what happened?' Yoora asked Lena.

    They were already sitting in the back of Daichi's car.

    Lena slowly looked at her friend. She didn't know how to start what she was supposed to say.

    "Yoora . . . Jaejoong already knows that I love him," Lena uttered softly.

    "What? How?" Yoora asked with her eyes wide with shock.

    "I told him . . . It just happened," Lena answered.

    "So what did he say? Did he say that he likes you too? Is that the reason why the two of you are acting weird around each other?" Yoora asked continuously.

    Lena shook her head and tried to smile. "No, he didn't say that he likes me too. In fact, he's quite confused on what he is really feeling for me. I guess he really just likes me as a friend and nothing more," she said sadly.

    "That's absurd! How could he possibly not like you in return? Is he gay or what? Even before . . .I can clearly see that he likes you too. So why is he trying to deny it?" Yoora said with a raised voice.

    "Yoora, please calm down. It's all right. We can't make him love me back in return. I have already learned how to accept the fact that he will never be mine. Maybe I am really destined to be Daichi's wife. There's nothing more we can do. Let's just leave Jaejoong alone. I have already caused too much trouble for him. YOu don't need to confront him or whatsoever. So please don't try to ask him about what happened between us. Let's just leave everything behind," Lena said with sadness in her voice.

    Yoora glanced at her friend. "What are you saying? Are you trying to tell me that you're finally giving up on him?"

    Lena smiled at Yoora. "I don't have any choice. He doesn't like me. So I guess I have to accept Daichi now. There's no sense in trying to fight with my parents anymore. I don't have any reason to hold on anymore."

    "Lena, you've been in love with Jaejoong for years now. Why are you suddenly trying to forget everything? I can't believe that you would actually give up so easily," Yoora said seriously.

    "I'm tired, Yoora. I'm already very, very tired. I don't want to hold on to false hope anymore. Jaejoong will never love me back . . . and that is that. We can never be more than friends," Lena said weakly.

    "That's nonsense! I have been your friend for years now. And I already know both of you so well like the back of my hand. And I can tell even when we were still young that both of you like each other more than just friends. The two of you are just in denial," Yoora said as she stared seriously at Lena. She was very upset. The moment she came to Japan she was already expecting that Lena and Jaejoong had already straightened out their feeling for one another. She never expected that her best friends had grown much farther apart.

    "Yoora . . ." Lena uttered.

    "Lena, are you really giving up? DOn't you love him anymore? Are you in love with Daichi now? I'm so sad for you Lena. I don't want to see you end up living your whole life in sadness. I know Jaejoong is the only man who you can love. And I think if you do end up marrying Daichi, you'll just be suffering . . . not only you but Daichi and Jaejoong as well," Yoora said as she touched Lena's hand.

    "Yoora, he doesn't love me. What more do you expect me to do? I already confessed to him. Frankly, just thinking about it . . . makes me feel so small. I feel so degraded just thinking that I am a girl and yet I was the first one to confess my love. It is so unacceptable," Lena said sadly.

    Yoora smiled. "Good thing I am here now. Don't worry. I will help you. I'm going to make that dumb Jaejoong figure out everything and I'm going to make sure that he's going to confess to you."

    "What are you planning to do Yoora? Please just leave things alone. You don't have to do anything. I think I've already accepted the fact that Jaejoong can never be mine," Lena said sadly again.

    "No! I'm going to make Jaejoong suffer. I'm going to make sure that before the day ends, he's going to end up crazy with jealousy," Yoora said with determination in her voice.

    "Yoora . . . please stop it. I don't want to cause any trouble to Jaejoong," Lena pleaded.

    "You're not going to cause him any problem . . . but I am," Yoora said with a devilish grin.

    "Yoora . . ."

    "Don't try to stop me. And just follow everything that I am going to say. I'll make him regret everything," Yoora said again.

    "Yoora, I'm already getting engaged on Sunday. There's nothing more we can do. Let's just leave things as it is," Lena said again as she tried to plead with her friend.

    "You're just getting engaged . . . not married. It's not too late for me to interfere. I think I can still do something. Let's just see how he's going to handle the things that I am going to do," Yoora said with a smile.

    "There's nothing more you can do. You can't possibly force him to love me. I am already tired of hoping and dreaming that he will eventually fall in love with me. My heart is already very tired. I don't think I can take it anymore . . . if he refuses me one more time," Lena said as she suddenly stared out of the car.

    Yoora shook her head. She wasn't going to let her best friend end up being miserable. She was determined to do everything that would eventually make Jaejoong realize his true feelings for Lena. She knew that Jaejoong had feelings for her friend, but he was just trying to hide it.

    "Stupid Jaejoong . . .now I am going to make sure that you're going to get what you deserve," Yoora said in her mind as she stared at Lena's sad face.

    The photo shoot finally ended after hours of waiting. Yoora was already very anxious to start the things that she had planned.

    After the photo shoot, the DBSK boys together with Daichi, Yoora and Lena all went to the club. Yoora's mind immediately started to think of ways to make Jaejoong jealous.

    The DBSK boys all sat in one table together with Lena, Yoora and Daichi. The club was almost half full. And most of the girls in the club were all staring at the DBSK boys as soon as they entered the club.

    Yoora smiled. "So let's party!" she said as she stared at Lena and Jaejoong.

    Daichi looked at Yoora. He was already sensing that she was planning to do something. And even though his heart was aching just thinking that he was going to lose Lena, he had no intention to stop Yoora from whatever she was planning. He also wanted Lena to be happy. And he knew that Jaejoong was the only man who could possibly make Lena happy.

    Yoora looked at Jaejoong. She was very upset with him.

    "You're quite stupid, Jaejoong. You don't even know what's good for you. Before this night ends, I'm going to make sure that you'll be dying of jealousy. I'm going to make you regret everything. You'll be going crazy with the things I'll be doing with Lena. Stupid . . . . Stupid Jaejoong!" Yoora said in her mind as she stared at Jaejoong.

    Daichi ordered several bottles of wines. He somehow knew that both he and Jaejoong will be drinking a lot. He was already sensing that he would be needing a lot of liquor to drown out the pain that he was going to feel.

    As soon as the bottles of wines arrived, Yoora immediately took out one bottle of wine and poured on two wine glasses.

    "Hey! Slow down . . . Two glasses? Are you trying to get yourself drunk already?" Lena said to Yoora.

    "No . . . this one is for me and this is for you," Yoora answered as she gave one of the wine glasses to Lena.

    Lena looked at Yoora with a weird expression on her face. She was somehow confused on why Yoora was acting very strange.

    "Drink up!" Yoora said as she drank all the wine in her glass in one gulp.

    Lena smiled. She had missed Yoora's craziness. They had been friends for years and she was already used to Yoora's impulsive and unpredictable nature.

    After Lena saw that Yoora had already finished her drink, she immediately followed her example. She also drank all the wine in her glass in one straight gulp.

    The DBSK boys were immediately alarmed with the way the two girls were drinking.

    After the two wine glasses were empty, Yoora hurriedly filled them up with wine again.

    "Drink . . ." Yoora said to Lena as she glanced at Jaejoong's reaction.

    Lena smiled again, then lightly laughed.

    The two girls both drank the contents of their glasses in one shot. Afterwards, Yoora filled them up again for the third time.

    "Hey! That's enough!" Micky said to Yoora.

    Yoora immediately stared at Micky. She was expecting Jaejoong to be the one to stop them. She then glanced at Jaejoong. He was looking at a different direction, as if he didn't care. This made Yoora more mad.

    "Drink up Lena . . ." Yoora told Lena with a cold voice.

    Lena was already affected by the wine she had taken. She quickly followed Yoora, and without any question or protest, she again drank the wine before her.

    "Daichi, aren't you going to stop them?" Micky asked worriedly.

    Daichi just shook his head. "No! Let them have their fun. That's why we're all here . . . to have some fun."

    "But drinking too much isn't fun," Max commented.

    "Oh! You guys are too straight," Yoora exclaimed.

    She then took the bottle wine, and poured on the wine glasses for the fourth time.

    "Cheers!" Yoora exclaimed with joy.

    Lena laughed. She could tell that she was already drunk. But she didn't care. She was having fun. She was somehow forgetting all her problems. And this was what she needed the most . . . to be able to forget.

    Lena was about to drink her glass of wine, when someone suddenly snatched it from her. She then stared at the person who was holding her glass. It was . . . Micky.

    "Hey! That's mine," Lena said with a laugh.

    Micky suddenly drank all the wine in Lena's glass in one shot as well.

    Xiah, Max and U-Know all looked at Micky, then at Jaejoong. A strange feeling was somehow in the air and everyone was feeling it.

    Jaejoong was already staring at Micky as well. Somehow he couldn't explain his emotion.

    "Am I jealous of Micky?" he was silently asking himself.

    Yoora smiled devilishly. She suddenly thought of a new way to make Jaejoong suffer. She then grabbed Lena's hand and gently pulled her on to the dance floor.

    "Let's dance!" Yoora said to Lena.

    Lena just nodded. She was already out of control as well. The three glasses of wine she had drank had already made her lose all her sense of reasoning.

    As the two girls entered the dance floor, the eyes of every male in the club suddenly focused on them.

    Yoora and Lena were both wearing sexy dresses which showed their full figure. And as they danced, they somehow aroused all the males' interests.

    Jaejoong just watched as Lena and Yoora danced. Somehow he could feel a very hot, tingling sensation rushing all over his body. He felt like he wanted to drag Lena out of the club and just lock her up. So that no other man can ever set their eyes on her again.

    He suddenly let out a long sigh. He then looked at everyone in the club again. Everyone was really focused on Yoora and Lena. And somehow this made him very jealous.
