Chapter 224 - Fly Me To the Moon

Upon entering the hotel, Jun Hyeon immediately went to the reception desk, while Ye Rim kept a hand protecting his eye. With the other eye, she checked her watch. 

The sunset would be a few minutes away, and she hoped to have all this evening alone with Jun Hyeon, when they could remember their love and together they could break the spell.

He took her to the toilet, and waited outside, "Wash your eye without rubbing it, and come back so I can apply the drops."

She did just that, but it took longer than necessary. Her heart was pounding. She had spent months waiting for the moment to be recognized again by the man she loved so desperately.

Would it happen again?

When she opened the toilet door, Jun Hyeon was nowhere to be seen.

Ye Rim felt her blood run cold.

'He…? Did he realize it was a scam, and abandoned me here? ' Her feet seemed to be glued to the floor, and she felt herself start to tremble. Tears formed in her eyes, and fell to the floor. She saw the vial of eye drops near her feet.

'Uh?'

When Ye Rim heard quick steps coming in that direction, she quickly wiped her eyes. She didn't want to be seen crying.

"YE RIM!"

The singer looked up, trembling, on hearing Jun Hyeon calling her so urgently.

He was turning the corner for this part of the hotel, and stopped when he saw her. She could know that this was HER Jun Hyeon just by the way he looked at her, when he stopped, static. 

Then he came running to Ye Rim, ignoring anything, and took her in his arms.

"Ye Rim! Ye Rim, what's going on?! What's going on, my love?"

She couldn't resist being in his arms, in that tight hug, and grabbed his face with both hands, to kiss his lips with hunger.

"Jun… Hyeon… I miss you!"

He responded to her kiss as if they hadn't kissed in a long time. Which was true. He held her as if he could never let her go, and that was how she felt.

"Jun Hyeon ... Let's go to a room, huh?"

He nodded, but they didn't want to be apart for anything. So they went back to the reception, hand in hand. 

Ye Rim couldn't control the smile on her face, and looked at her transformed Jun Hyeon.

The doctor looked back at her in rapture as he waited for the reception girl to fill in the necessary information, giving only brief answers.

The receptionist, incidentally, looked at the couple as if she were seeing dinosaurs at their reception, until finally she handed over the room key and timidly asked,

"I have never seen celebrities up close before. Would it be too much trouble to have a picture with you? It's okay if you prefer not to."

Jun Hyeon faltered, but Ye Rim readily agreed. She was too happy to care! 

After the photos, they were told about their room, and as soon as they entered the floor corridor, they ran hand in hand to the bedroom door.

"Don't you still need eye drops?" he asked, as he hurriedly opened the door.

"Seeing you again is the only thing I need, Jun Hyeon."

When the door opened, the doctor grabbed his fiancee in his arms, starting a new kiss before closing the door with his foot.

"You… You have to explain to me what's going on, Ye Rim. I know I forgot about us, but I remember everything now! Like the other time, I remembered everything in the United States! Forgive me, my love, forgive me for being so mean to you!"

Ye Rim nodded, struggling with the urge to squeeze him so hard it would choke him.

Jun Hyeon placed her on the bed gently, lying down beside her.

"Is it an enchantment? A spell, or else? I remember making an exchange with Shin Hyung and Eun Ha… We… "He stroked her face with a rapt look, his eyes filled with tears. Ye Rim also wanted to cry with happiness.

"Later... Now, hold me tight because I miss you so much!"

He nodded, with a smile, and they hugged each other tenderly, tightly, enjoying the contact with each other's body and could feel their hearts beating in unison.

"I can't believe we're together ..." he murmured, his face buried in her hair. Ye Rim felt her heart sink. He didn't know everything about the spell.

But they had a little time, and it wasn't just her heart that missed him, but her body too.

Smelling his manly and warm scent, while sniffing his neck, Ye Rim ran her hands down Jun Hyeon's ribs, realizing he shivered. He grabbed her around the waist and in a quick movement, placed her under him.

"You have no idea how I want you, Ye Rim!"

Whispering words of love, and without taking their eyes off each other, they helped each other to get rid of their clothes. They longed for each other's tender and passionate kisses alike, and for every sensation they could give each other.

It was not s.e.x; it was the expression of happiness for the reunion. Their bodies only expressed in tune the love they felt.

When their sweaty bodies were exhausted from the climaxes they shared, they hugged and looked at each other in ecstasy, as if they still couldn't take their eyes off each other for a moment.

"I remember everything, Ye Rim! It makes no sense! The other time, I also remembered and started to forget everything at the end of the night! I don't want to sleep and lose you again!"

She smiled even more.

"It was not so. Shin tried to prevent our tragedy from being complete. But his magic was too weak to totally break the price of the magic you agreed to... All he managed to do was make you remember me occasionally. Hoping this would be enough to bring us together again!"

He held his breath, thinking about this new information. "I'm sure the price of life is high, but I regret nothing. I didn't expect to survive. It was enough for me to know that you lived."

"But living without you is so painful, Jun Hyeon!" Ye Rim's eyes filled with tears as she thought of all the indifference with which Jun Hyeon treated her during these two years.

He gave a beautiful smile, "But it's over now!"

"Because I was determined! You owe me a lot!" She pouted.

"Yes! I must, and I will pay! Everything!" He squeezed her ribs even more, and she complained, "Whoa!"

"Please don't ever forgive me for letting you slip from my mind! It just happened because I was supposed to be dead. It has an explanation. A good explanation." He tried to be funny and grinned brightly, to make her happy. And Ye Rim remembered how strange his sense of humor was.

"Stop! You suck at jokes. At least you're handsome, to make up for your pitiful sense of humor," she complained, feeling more relieved and safe.

"I promise I will leave the jokes to you, I will just be this handsome oppa so you don't look at anyone else..."

"Aish, stop bragging..."

His eyes filled with tenderness again, and he turned serious.

"Ye Rim ... I love you. Forgive me. Thank you for not giving up on me."

"Don't ever forget me, please..." her chin quivered as she spoke, out of fear.

"Never," He promised.

...

They slept unintentionally, because they were too tired to stay awake.

Ye Rim woke up startled, with the cell phone close to his arm vibrating incessantly. Jun Hyeon slept heavily beside her.

She looked at what time it was. It was 4:15 in the morning.

And Na Ra was calling in Jun Hyeon's phone.

"Who does she think she is to call Jun Hyeon at this time?" 

A pang of jealousy hit her chest like a stab.

She got up and went away from the bed, and answered Jun Hyeon's phone with a whisper,

"Hello?"
