Orientation

Viral Interaction

 

Daehyun collapsed onto his bed, breathing deeply. Sweat covered his brow with his shirt clinging onto his weary body. He had abandoned his pants somewhere between the time stumbling over through his bedroom door and his bed but it didn’t matter since his mind was still buzzing with excitement.

He peeled his shirt off and tossed it aside as he moaned into his pillow to drown out the sound.

Daehyun had spent the rest of the day at TS after having lunch with Youngjae. The lively attitude he had radiated seemed to have stained Daehyun for the rest of his day. He had gotten the official tour around TS and had met the other newcomers who were in the same situation as himself. At first he was dreading to meet all those talents people but seeing Youngjae in person had really given him the confidence boost he thought he never had. For the first time ever he was the one to initiate conversations and the one laughing and joking around with the other newbies.

The entire day had been a blur, so much had happened and his mind didn’t simply have the time to process it all. Daehyun had even missed out vital points in the numerous announcements being made; he had caught several newbies jotting down points in small notebooks while Daehyun simply told himself he would remember it all. Even if he didn’t he would simply ask someone which was something he usually never did unless he had no choice.

Daehyun was currently lying in bed, breathless from running up and down the stairs in his dorm to reach his bedroom. He wasn’t exactly sure on how many people were at the dorm but he was pretty sure that someone had mentioned the numbers would constantly vary as people would move out and move in all the time. It didn’t really bother Daehyun since he already had one friend and that was more than enough for him.

Again, just like every night he felt compelled to log online again. He knew he had seen Youngjae in person just hours before but still the urge, no the need to speak to him again was gnawing at him. After all he wanted to make sure Youngjae knew that he wasn’t simply going to forget about him.

Chapter 36: I know this was coming but it still hurts. And not to sound like a dickhead, but the last line was so cheesy that it made me laugh unexpectedly.

Just imagining dae at the beach, shouting, "I REMEMBER!"

Chapter 36: It takes a lot of restraint to hold back my tears. I’m a very emotional person so my tears naturally came out. I truly loved this story but it almost made me cry as much as I cried at The Ark - The Light.
