Having to see his brother suffering a lonely life often made his heart ache. Instead of making a sentimental remark Sehun jokingly replied "Get a girl old man or you will die a miserable death."
Taemin pulled his eyebrows "seems like you want a few good punches."
"Have mercy boss. I just came to tell you that we will be having breakfast in the venue. The manager told us to come down in 15 minutes."
As soon as he delivered the information he ran away.
Kim Yerin got a place right in the front row, at the entrance of the concert venue where thousands of fans were piled up to get a glimpse of their idols. The security was tight around the fans.
They appears to be under control but once they gets a view of their idol they turns wild.
As SEVEN X has already experienced many such incidents, the security around the fans this time was extremely cautious.
"Are you from Korea?" A girl, little younger than her asked Yerin.
She politely smiled "yes. are you from here?"
"yeah. I am Elena. I live not far from here. Actually I have seen you quite a few times."
"really?" Yerin was surprised. With her disguise on, it was rare for people to remember her.
hah! these super fans with their keen eyes and good observation skills are bound to be sharp.
She nodded "you have a good pair of eyes."
The girl winked " we are die hard fans afterall."
The girl was cheerful, Yerin liked her. She noticed her wearing a SEVEN X T- shirt and asked "who is your bias?"
"Lee Sungwoo" she replied with a blush "and yours?"
Yerin proudly replied "Baek Se-hun"
"well what about your bias wrecker?"
Elena thought for a moment "it's tough you know. All of them makes me excited in their own way."
"Common now tell me." Yerin playfully tickled her.
She laughed "okay okay. Let me think...Kim seok Jun, I like his playful nature at times. Now tell me yours."
Kim Yerin answered at once "I don't have a bias wrecker. I only love Sehun. But off course I admire every member."
Elena narrowed her eyes "don't act smart girl, you have to tell me." she started tickling her just like Yerin did her before.
These are the beautiful things one experiences while being a fan. Travelling to places, meeting new people, making friends; sharing different cultures and opinions. Although strangers everyone seemed like a part of a big family.
The feeling of admiring someone from a distance, imagining crazy fantasies while the other person have no idea about your existence was all a part of the joy of being a Fan. What's wrong in being a fan? what's wrong even if it's a one sided infatuation?
standing in a line just to see the person you love, chasing around them to have a glimpse of their appearance, singing along them within a crowd. Laugh when they laugh. Cry when they cry. Imitating their poses, wanting to be like them, there is nothing wrong with that.
Some may say it's stupid but there are more stupid things we do everyday.
As long as it gives you happiness, gives you a reason to smile, it's worth it.
while Elena and Yerin were joking around someone shouted "they are coming! they are coming!"
And everyone rushed to adjust their cameras.
Seven members stepped out of two shiny celebrity vans.
The crowd went crazy as expected. All sorts of screams and cheering were heard. Choi Youngsik was excited to see the fans "woah! our Mob is crazy! such a huge gathering so early in the morning. I am touched. It's even bigger than last time."
"we must work hard to deserve them" Taemin commented and walked ahead. His eyes were scanning the crowd in search of the mysterious lady. He knew it was almost impossible to locate her among such a huge gathering still his heart had a faint hope. The members waved their hands to greet the crowd.
Among so many people it was difficult to handle a large camera and get the perfect angle, gratefully Yerin had a small step ladder. She adjusted the height and gracefully took the pictures.
Kim Yerin teased Elena "Lee Sungwoo is looking so good. Look at the style of his jacket, isn't he a fashion icon?"
"Look at you. Clicking pictures like a Pro, You are so cool."
Elena was analysing Yerin for a long time. Her grace and elegance deeply impressed her. The more they talked the more they grew fond of each other. As usual Yerin admired Sehun through her camera lenses.
"They are coming closer. holy shit! I am gonna faint." Elena screamed in bewilderment.
As Yerin was using a step ladder that too almost in the front row, she was standing out a little.
Taemin who was searching her through his eagle eyes caught her. Those pair of long legs, same black jacket, the mask.
yes! yes! yes! it's her.
"I got you." he whispered. Kim Yerin shifted her camera towards Taemin, who was walking closer towards the crowd, Wearing a V neck grey sweater as the weather was cloudy and rather cold. She kept watching him through the camera. Something about him attracted her. Even though she was not infatuated to him like the way she was for sehun still every time she looked at him, a certain kind of feeling draws her to him. She looked at his muscular chest and all his manly features.
There was a lot hidden behind his calm face. "He is quite mysterious." she whispered and then Elena said in a loud voice "hey! Taemin is constantly staring at us. Don't you think so?"
"huh?" Yerin looked back through her camera and was dumb founded.
Yes. He was indeed staring in their direction.
"oh god they are almost here. I am loosing my shit!!" Elena was sweating in excitement.
Yerin was still lost in Taemin.
other than Taemin who was walking alone in the back, the other members were walking ahead of him.
Soon Baek Se-hun crossed Yerin with the other members on his side, she didn't even looked at him completely invested on Taemin who too was looking at her camera.
It was as if they were having a constant eye contact through the camera.
Her heart was beating faster then ever.
He was about to cross her
1...
2...
3...
and someone pushed her ladder. She lost her balance and screamed in fear. Like a flash of light, instantly a pair of hands caught her.
The crowd went silent and then everyone screamed together.
Taemin saved her. One of his hands grabbed her waist while the other was supporting her back. Both his arms caged around her in protection.
She actually fell right into his arms.
Her eyes trailed from his desirable collarbone up to his jawline, it was one of the finest jawline she had ever seen. She swallowed hard. During the fall her cap fell down revealing her eyes and her forehead.
Finally their eyes met. Her heart almost stopped.
"so pretty." he breathed in the scent of her smell. As he looked into her eyes, he felt a warmth.
The fans roared in excitement and the band members looked surprised.
It was a typical movie scene right in front of their eyes.
Her eyes were the most beautiful thing he ever saw, a fire ignited in his heart.
Slowly he moved his hand to remove her mask that covered her face.
"Just one look" He prayed.
He never craved for something like this in his entire life.
He moved his hand to take off the mask Kim Yerin got hold of her senses, immediately she jumped out of his grip and ran away to hide into the crowd too embarrassed to face herself.
Damn! he cursed. Again he missed to see her face.
But those eyes never left his mind. The soft tender look, those dreamy eyes deeply imprinted in his heart.
what is this fate? He walked away in disappointment but determined to find her again.
