Crashing Into You

"Babe, can you check the door please?" 

Tan Ji Nan frowned "Who could it be?" He pulled himself out of the bed and opened the door. 

"Lee Jin Ho! I thought you"re going to stay at the bar with Lu Jiaosheng!" Tan Ji Nan was surprised to see him.

"Jiaosheng has left the bar even before we did." Lee Jin Ho replied 

"Oh! So why are you here?" 

"I don"t have a room to sleep in"

Tan Ji Nan frowned. "Why?" 

"He brought a woman into our room." 

Tan Ji Nan hissed. "That punk!"

"Can I sleep here tonight? I"ve tried to book for another room but all rooms are occupied now." 

"Sure!" He gave Lee Jin Ho a s.p.a.ce so he could enter the room. 

Lee Jin Ho surveyed the room and he didn"t find Tan Ja Nin. 

Tan Ji Nan walked to the bed where Ho Min Lin was laying. 

Tan Ji Nan lightly tapped Ho Min Lin"s arm "Babe.." 

"Uhm, who came to visit us at this hour?" Ho Min Lin asked without looking at Tan Ji Nan. Her eyes were closed already. 

"Lee Jin Ho is here and he will sleep in our room tonight!"

"Lee Jin Ho!" Ho Min Lin opened her eyes and looked for Lee Jin Ho. She saw him standing near the door. "Why?" 

"He doesn"t have a room to sleep in. Lu Jiaosheng brought a girl he met at the bar into their room tonight!"

"That jerk!" Ho Min Lin said angily. She felt bad for Lee Jin Ho. "Hmmm so where are you going to sleep?" 

Lee Jin Ho looked at the empty bed.

"You can"t sleep with Tan Ja Nin" Tan Ji Nan said.

Lee Jin Ho understood that Ho Min Lin was sleeping beside him. He was still curious to know where is Tan Ja Nin. She could be inside the bathroom. He wanted to know her reaction if she knew that he will be sleeping in the same room.

"I can sleep on the couch." 

"You"re too big for the couch. It will be uncomfortable for you to sleep there" Ho Min Lin said, trying to figure out what would be their sleeping arrangement now. 

"I heard the doorbell was ringing earlier..." Tan Ja Nin who just came out from the bathroom has halted her steps when she saw Lee Jin Ho.

"What are you doing here?" She was completely shocked by Lee Jin Ho"s presence. 

Lee Jin Ho was also stunned when he saw Tan Ja Nin who just came out from the bathroom only wearing her bathrobe. He was not able to answer her question right away.

"He is going to sleep here tonight" Tan Ji Nan answered her sister. 

"I see" Tan Ja Nin said who still have not recovered from her shock said softly. Her body was trembling as she walked and sit to her bed.

Even Lee Jin Ho was 3 meters away from Tan Ja Nin, he could still smell the fragrance emitting from her body after she has taken a half bath. 

"I guess, I need to share the bed with Tan Ja Nin tonight, then Lee Jin Ho to sleep beside Tan Ji Nan" Ho Min Lin said as pulled herself out of the bed and sit beside Tan Ja Nin.

Tan Ji Nan gave Lee Jin Ho a dagger look. 

"Not my fault! Please reserve all your disappointment to Lu Jiaosheng tomorrow. He deserves a kick from both of us." Lee Jin Ho said as he walked towards the bed where Tan Ji Nan was. 

Tan Ji Nan hissed "You smell like tobacco." He complaint. 

"Do you have a spare bathrobe here?" Lee Jin Ho asked. He also doesn"t want to sleep without was.h.i.+ng up. He smells like beer and tobacco.

"I think there is a spare bathrobe from the hotel" Tan Ji Nan said. 

"Okay, do you also have a spare towel?" 

"Just go to the bathroom and look. Serve yourself, I"m going to sleep now." Tan Ji Nan said and went to Ho Min Lin to gave her a goodnight kiss on the forehead. 

Lee Jin Ho gave Tan Ja Nin a side glance before he went inside the bathroom. 

.....

Tan Ji Nan and Ho Min Lin was already sleeping when Lee Jin Ho came out from the bathroom minutes later. The couple must been dead tired to doze off easily. The main lights we"re already turned off and the dim lights from the bedside table only gave a bit of brightness to the entire room. He looked at Tan Ja Nin who was already lying on the bed but she was still up because the screen of her cellphone was still lit. 

"Ain"t you going to sleep yet?" He asked Tan Ja Nin.

Tan Ja Nin didn"t expect that Lee Jin Ho will talk to her so it gave her a moment of surprise but was able to regain her composure and answered him naturally. "I"m not sleepy yet." 

"It is because you"re still playing with your phone that"s why you couldn"t catch a sleep yet." Lee Jin Ho chided her. 

What was she doing with her phone during this hour? Is she chatting with anyone?

"I"m a late sleeper." 

"Stop playing with your phone so your mind and eyes could relax now." Lee Jin Ho couldn"t dry his hair with the dryer because of the noise that this will create so he just tried to dry it with the towel. 

Tan Ja Nin put down her phone on the bed side table and secretly took a glance at Lee Jin Ho. She could not help but be mesmerized as she watched him. He looked so s.e.xy everytime he will dump the towel into his wet hair.

"I haven"t said Thank You yet for protecting me earlier at the bar!" 

"It just a small thing" 

"It wasn"t. It gave me sense of security." 

Lee Jin Ho"s lips have slightly curled up and he felt happy to know that Tan Ja Nin felt secured earlier with him around. 

"I"ll treat you for a coffee/lunch or dinner maybe to compensate you for all the trouble I"ve caused you today." Tan Ja Nin said 

Lee Jin Ho smiled and looked at Tan Ja Nin. 

"A dinner will do tomorrow night." 

"We"re going to Lan Kwai Fong tomorrow night with the group." 

Lee Jin Ho thought for awhile. "Let"s have the dinner treat next week then." 

"Okay!" 

"One more thing..."

"What is it?" 

"Tomorrow, when we go to Lan Kwai Fong, can you not wear a dress like you wore tonight at SoHo" 

"...."

"You"ve got a long pair of legs"

Tan Ja Nin face blushed. 

Is that a compliment?

"If you will wear of the same kind tomorrow night, you will attract more attention from the other guys"

Tan Ja Nin lips curled up.

Was he jealous? 

Her heart started to thump again.

But before her hopes got up, Lee Jin Ho continued "I don"t want to be in the same situation like I was earlier. Let"s avoid creating troubles for everyone." 

"Got it! I"m sorry for giving you troubles earlier." 

Tan Ja Nin said and her spirit suddenly got dumped.

"Sleep now. It"s almost 3 in the morning and we need to wake up earlier tomorrow." Lee Jin Ho said and walked back to the bathroom to hang the towel and never waited for her reply. 

"Goodnight!" Tan Ja Nin softly said that she could only hear what she said. 

Minutes later, her eyes began to close naturally as she fell asleep. 

.....

Lee Jin Ho returned to the bedroom. He looked at Tan Ja Nin and come closer to her when he saw that she was already sleeping. 

He kneeled down so his face will be on the same level as Tan Ja Nin. Now that she was already asleep, he could stare at her beautiful face all he wants. He could not do it while she was awake. As he stares at her flawless face, he felt the urge to touch it with his fingers but restrained himself from doing it. This la.s.s was a true head turner. She always got attention from the other guys. He realized tonight that it won"t be that easy to be her boyfriend. If you wanted to be her boyfriend, you should not be the jealous type. He almost lost his temper earlier when he saw how the other guys looked at her with such admiration. He can"t stand if somebody stares at her. It always made him uncomfortable. He looked at her naturally pink lips, his heart almost fell out from his chest when her mouth has slightly open. He clenched his fist trying to control the burning sensation that has started consuming him. He took a deep breath.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

His heart has began to beat rapidly when he slowly bent his head.
