His Name

Perfect, Beautiful, Exotic

'You should work with me Minji!' Bom cheered. I was currently enjoying dinner at my apartment with the roommates and we were indulging in Bom's special ramen.

'Work at that men's clothing store? With you?' I repeated, a little taken aback. 'Honestly I don't think I look the part, and I still question how you got hired. No offence Bom unnie.'

'I'm mature and I know what I'm doing! There are tons of cute guys that come into the store. It's a bonus, really.' She beamed.

'And why all of a sudden do you want me to work there ?' I frowned, slurping up my ramen.

'Our manager just fired a guy who was always late to work and he never dressed accordingly.' She shrugged. 'So there's an opening.'

'So shouldn't they be looking for another guy and not a girl? Besides, Dara unnie is who you should be asking.' I replied.

'She asked me already.' Dara chuckled. 'But I'm content with being a bartender you know. It's my style.'

'It'll be fun Minji ! Let's do it together. A few of our shifts could even be at the same time.' Bom looked at me hopefully.

'I'm really not sure... I don't know much about men's clothing. Especially about suits and stuffs.' I drank a gulp of my soup.

'You just need to know about shirts and ties and how they match together! It's so simple! Sometimes the guys even let me fix their ties for them or have me put on their jackets!' Bom grinned. I smiled in amusement at how obsessed she could be with guys. The girl really needed to get a boyfriend. Soon.

'I'll think about it.' I nodded slightly.

'We're in no rush but I'll bring you in for a trial day or something yeah?' Bom clapped cheerfully.

'So Minji.' Chaerin finally started speaking. You can tell when she likes her food If it takes her a while to start conversation during a meal.
'You ARE coming to the party this weekend right? My friend Jiyong says a lot of cute guys will be there.' She smirked.

'Yeah we'll all be there. You made us promise remember ?' I rolled my eyes at her. 'And I'm NOT looking for a hookup, I've said so every time.'

'Oh so you're still stalking that guy Minji?' Bom asked me.

'I'm NOT stalking him. We just happen to take the same bus you know?' I sighed.

'It kind of is, when you go EVERY MORNING to take the bus to Uni even on days when you start at later times.' Dara pointed out. Bom and Chaerin nodded in unison, making me sigh again.

'Well I figured out that he seems to always have classes at early times PLUS you guys know I like to be early...' I tried to argue. But I never won usually. My roommates really took me for a weird girl sometimes.

'I think it's cute Minji, but by now If I were you I would've say hi or something.' Dara nodded at me. 'It's a bit weird that you've been watching him for almost a year and you haven't done anything about it.'

'How does one even start up a conversation on the bus? Besides what would he think If NOW I go on that bus and be all like " Hi nice to meet you I've been taking this bus for 9 months and I've only decided to say hi now."'? My tone being sarcastic.

'Maybe you could drop your ID card or something on the floor and he'll pick it up?' Dara suggested, to which I scrunched my nose up.

'Ugh, that's so cliche, and I don't want him to see my ID card!'

'Um...maybe sit in that seat before he does and since he usually chooses that spot, maybe he'll sit next to you!'  Bom laughed.

'Look don't worry about it guys...We'll meet someday...at a party or something.' I shrugged, finishing the last of my meal.

'Yeah I get that. If only you could see him outside of the bus scene, it'd be easier to meet without awkwardness.' Chaerin agreed with me, before quickly snapping her fingers, making all of us turn our heads to her. 'Hey!! I could take your sketchbook since you seem to draw him so well anyway....and ask my friends If they know him! Gee why didn't I think of this brilliant idea before?!'

I widened my eyes and immediately shook my head to the suggestion. 'Forget it Chae unnie, that's way too embarrassing! They'll know how weird I am...'

'Yeah but you'll finally get your prince charming's name and stuff! Think about the benefits Minji.' She gave me a knowing look.

'....Okay I'm freakin curious.' I sighed in defeat. 'Just make sure....you only show ONE drawing. Not all...ugh I can't do this!' I ran my hand harshly through my red hair.

'Why not get an actual photo?' Dara frowned. 'Better than a drawing right? People will think you found it randomly.'

'I don't have a photo...' I mumbled.

'Ah then that's no problem.' Bom chuckled all of a sudden. 'I'll get that photo for you.' She grinned and gave the 'okay' sign to Chaerin and Dara, who seemed to understand what she was up to. I stared narrow eyed at my roommates.

'Don't worry Mingkki~ Unnie will take care of this!' Bom flapped her hand around. I had a bad feeling about this.....


---

'What?' I was in disbelief.

'Bwo? What's wrong with you little one? You look like you've seen a ghost.' Bom frowned at me.

I stared at my watch again and it read 7:00AM....AM.

'Unnie...you seriously want to me to Uni at 7 in the morning?' I questioned.

'Yep. I slept early last night and thought it'd be a nice thing to do for our maknae.' She replied with a big smile. 'Come on we're going to miss your bus! Let's go!' She rushed me to the door. We chatted randomly while making our way to the bus stop.

Something was up. And I knew it, but before I could question her motive, we both hopped onto the bus and she sat next to me in my usual spot.

 

'Unnie...what are you planning?'

'I just want to get a glimpse of your Prince Charming and see If he's really as good looking as you say he is.' She smiled. I groaned in response. The thing about Bom was...she believed she had the skill to correctly judge a guys looks, personality and 'worthy' of being someone's boyfriend. I wasn't worried for that, but I was more concerned that she'd do something to embarrass me.

'Unnie...you're not gonna talk to him are you ?' I asked, to which she shook her head. She was currently doing her makeup and while I have to say how vain it is for her to makeup her face on the bus, it was a skill that she could put on eyeliner while sitting on a moving bus. I decided to listen to my music while anticipating my prince's entrance. I wondered If he'd be wearing his beanie today. It was quite cold and It was the kind of morning weather that he'd wear it in. Next to me, I felt Bom stirring in her seat so I turned around and found her grinning weirdly.

'See something interesting? I raised my eyebrow at her.

'I'm just excited to see him.' She laughed back while tapping away at her phone. Who was she typing to anyway?

Another 10 minutes passed and I held my breath as the bus was about to pull up at his stop. I grabbed hold of Bom unnie's wrist and she knew it was my signal telling her that he was about to enter. She squealed a little as the bus stopped and my beautiful creature slowly walked in, and made his way towards us...well his seat. He wasn't wearing his beanie like I predicted, but he had a tiny smile playing on his lips, which didn't go unnoticed by me. I glanced over at Bom to see her reaction and I could've slapped her If we weren't on a quiet bus. She was full on intently staring at him and studying him as he walked up to his seat. Okay yeah he wasn't looking our way but Bom was so obvious!! I nudged her, and she winced in pain while frowning at me. I opened up the notes section on my phone and quickly typed a message to her, before passing my phone for her to read it.

'Unnie, you didn't NEED to look at him like that! What if he noticed?!'

Bom covered and tried to stop herself from laughing before she typed back and gave the phone to me.

'Calm down! That was harmless. :P you're too paranoid. Also I give my score of 8/10. Not bad Mingkki!'

I smiled a little bit, not wanting Bom to see it. She approved of my taste for once, since I knew that she usually hated how I dressed and stuff. I was about to type back before the bus driver abruptly stopped the bus at the next stop. All passengers were making a commotion before the bus driver walked out of his seat and faced everyone.

'Sorry customers, but this bus will terminate here due to being low on gas. But don't worry, the replacement bus will be here in no longer than 10 minutes. We're very sorry.' He bowed, before ushering everyone outside.

'Has this happened before?' Bom asked me as we shuffled out with everyone.

'Only once, and that was last year.' I replied. We were all lined up in a group of about 15 people, waiting for the replacement bus. Bom and I stood at the far end and I took this time to realise that my Prince Charming was standing about 2 meters away from us! He was busy looking at his phone and I couldn't help but smile really big to myself at the way he was standing. He was just like a model. I grabbed at Bom's wrist again and smiled sheepishly at her, to which she grinned at me.

'Hey.' She called, reaching her hand out. 'Give me your phone. I wanna take some selcas.'

'Now? In the morning?' I questioned. 'Use your phone for that.'

 

'My phone quality is bad. Pass it!' She whined, making me roll my eyes before reluctantly passing my phone to her. She immediately the camera and it was already set on front cam so I leaned in and posed before Bom tapped on the screen to turn it to the back camera and held it far from her face. I was confused for a second until she called out.

'Minji-ah, let's take a selca!' She sang, and tapped several times at my phone. My eyes widened. She had my phone camera aimed at MY Prince Charming and had just taken a few full shots of him. I quickly grabbed back my phone and hit Bom's arm, for it was so damn suspicious! The way she was holding the phone. She only snatched my phone back before pretending to take a selca while she zoomed into his face and took MORE photos. I glanced up slightly to see If he notied and he was DEFINITELY looking our way for a moment.That smile was lingering on his face still...

Bom unnie grinned before quickly tapping away and giving me back my phone. 'My work is done~' she whispered in my ear.

'Was this what you came up with last night?!' I tried to keep my volume down. I wasn't even paying attention to my Prince Charming right now, even though he was so close and it was the perfect chance to study him more. I was more furious that Bom had no shame in taking photos of a complete stranger! Wasn't that against the law or something?

'Please Minji, you should thank me. Anyway since that's all I came here to do, I'll be going home for a quick nap before work! ~ And don't change that wallpaper of yours you hear?' she sang before hopping off, not giving me a chance to say bye as she quickly flagged down a taxi and got inside. I sighed in disbelief. This girl was really something. I tapped at my phone to check the time only to have my eyes popped out at my new wallpaper. The close up shot of my Prince charming's side profile was flashing on my phone. I studied the photo a little more and gasped when I noticed he was looking at my camera. . So next time I take the bus I better come in a disguise. The picture stared back at me as I sighed to myself in wonder. It made me DAMN happy that Bom managed to get a good picture of him...one thing I knew was that I wasn't changing my wallpaper.

 

----

 

'Maybe you should give a weird nickname to your future boyfriend.' Luna suggested. We were currently eating lunch at a cafe close to Uni. She was studying the wallpaper of my Prince charming's perfect face.

'Nickname? And why weird?' I asked. 'We call him my Prince Charming and I'm okay with that already.'

'I'm trying to come up with a name from this picture!' Luna laughed. 'You know..the more I look at this, the more I feel like he could pass off as a girl.'

'He's a lot prettier than me, that's for sure.' I nodded. It was true. If we were in a beauty contest, he'd win hands down.

'Wow you totally think so highly of yourself.' Luna rolled her eyes. 'He is rather cute.' She smiled., making me snatch my phone back.

'Don't fall for him!' I dead panned.

'Relax Minji I'm not after dating pretty boys..besides the guy could have a girlfriend you know?' Luna stuck her tongue out at me.

'Until we meet, I'll choose not to believe it!' I huffed.

'Whatever. Anyway you should head down to the dance area by the way. I ran into Youngbae sunbae and he asked me to tell you to make sure you join in on the hip hop class today. From what I remember, that's like 15 minutes from now?' Luna glanced at her watch.

'I was already planning to.' I smiled. 'And If I wasn't, you waited to tell me NOW?' I nudged her a little.

'Mian. It's just I received this huge assignment task this morning and I've been stressed out about how to do it.' She sighed.

'We can talk about it after the day's over.' I sympathised before getting out of my chair. 'I'm gonna change for class now. Catch you later.' I called before making my way out of the cafe. I was forced to run slightly so I would make sure to get a spot near the front of the class. I quickly spotted Youngbae  and ran to the empty spot beside him.

'Hey.' I called before we gave each other a brief hug. 'There are heaps of people today...' I scanned the room. I waved to some familiar faces like Jongup, Wooyoung and Hyoyeon. Another figure caught my eye, talking to another person I didn't know. Hm. So he's taking this class too. I thought. I subconsciously smiled at myself seeing him look so amused at something. His friend seemed  rather good looking aswell. Wait. Aswell? What was I thinking?

 I turned my attention back to Youngbae who was stretching, so I started to stretch aswell.

'I'm guessing this class is popular again this semester because BoA Seon-saeng-nim is teaching it?' I asked him. He nodded in response while he stretched his head to the side. 'Lucky for us, since we're two of her favourite students.' He smiled.

'Yeah, her choreos are always fun to learn and they're memorable.' I agreed, before stretching into my splits. The room filled will loud talking, some people stretching and some others just chatting with each other. I spotted Jongup, a fellow dance student who I met last semester. He was one of the b-boys in the dance department and he tried to teach me some basics but I totally failed. I waved to him and his friends before I heard the door close, making me turn around and see BoA seon-saeng-nim walk in.

'Welcome back this semester guys!' She clapped her hands together, grinning. 'I'm ecstatic to see so many familiar faces from last semester aswell as quite a few new faces!

Today we're actually going to learn a partner piece that I choreographed with my friend.' She motioned to the man I just noticed standing in the corner. 'Pick your partners and If you can't find anyone to pair up with, I'll help you out.'

Youngbae looked at me expectedly and I nodded. I always knew we made a great team anyway. BoA quickly showed us a demonstration and I have to say it was one of the best pieces I've seen her chorograph before. Her partner really had a knack for dancing and I made a mental note to myself to ask her about him later.

Youngbae and I had some trouble at first but after an hour and a half, everyone had already finished learning the short piece and was practising it in time with the actual song's beats. I noticed that the guy who was dancing with BoA had left the room while she asked us to take a break.

'You guys really killed it today! I'm so happy that you enjoyed today's class. Let's wrap it up with a mini showcase!' She announced all of a sudden. Then I saw her eye me and Youngbae. I grinned back and I stood up with Youngbae in the middle of the class to perform the piece.

(A/N: Yeah..just pretend for me guys!)

The class applauded us as soon as we finished and BoA gave us a big thumbs up.

'As expected of two of my favourite students!' She clapped. 'Anyone else want to show off their skills?!'

'I do.' A voice creeped from the back of the room. I was still standing beside Youngbae in the middle of the room and turned my head to the source, only to see that guy from the other day. I inwardly groaned. Of course he would wanna show me up. I thought.

 

'Sure! And where's your partner?' BoA nodded.

'Actually, I'd like to perform the piece with you, Seon-saeng-nim.' He shook his head. A few gasps from other students were heard and I would've been one of them, had I not been trying to look so surprised in front of him. Honestly I kind of felt sorry for whoever he was practising with, whoever she was. BoA seon-saeng-nim seemed confused for a moment but quickly smiled and motioned him to come closer. I grabbed Youngbae's arm and brought him to the side to watch.

Okay, pretty good. I expected it to be good. Maybe not THAT good. The response he got from the students was so much louder than the one Youngbae and I received, which made me only a LITTLE pissed off. No, the smile on BoA's face was what made it worse.

'I'm pretty impressed with your dancing. I haven't seen your face around here.' She clapped. 'What's your name?'

'Sehun.' He responded flatly.

'Well I hope to be seeing you around more often then. You have great control of your movements. Keep it up.' She fist bumped him. On my side I could hear Youngbae mumbling quietly to himself. He was probably upset because up until now, he had been the only student she ever fist bumped. Yep, BoA was a legend at our university, even though she was also a student here. It was so many people's dream to get her to notice them, and I had achieved that alongside my friends in my first year. I kind of felt jealous that BoA was giving away her rare compliments to a completely new student she had never seen before. Also because he was someone who ticked me off the first time I met him.

The class had ended and I rushed out of the room since it'd be my turn to cook that night. Waiting at my bus stop, I couldn't help but constantly kick the floor because I didn't want an obnoxious guy becoming all famous at Uni when he was a jerk. Yeah, he had the skills, but I had yet to see a side of him that I liked. I shook my head in frustration, and decided to take my phone out to text Dara that I'd be coming home soon. My screen flashed and I instantly grinned because I had forgotten that my Prince Charming's photo was still set as my lock screen. Oh, how he could make me feel all warm and giddy inside so easily I didn't know but-

'Isn't that Luhan hyung?' A voice piped up behind me. I quickly jumped forward and my eyes widened when I turned to see who it was that surprised me. Sehun. He currently had his head creeped over behind me, and he was staring at my hands. Wait, my hands? I followed his gaze and realised he was staring at my lock screen. I hurriedly shoved my phone into my pocket and tried to look neutral.

'What do you want?' I asked coldly, trying to sound cool.

'That photo on your phone..looks an awful lot like my friend. Can I see it again?' He asked. Again, I frowned like I did the last time because he was way too close to my face.

'Your friend? I don't think so...I just have a photo of an ullzang boy from the internet.' I shrugged, hoping I sounded believable.

'Really.....' He stared at me weirdly before taking his own phone out.

'It's this guy, isn't it?' He handed me his phone. My eyes widened a little upon seeing my Prince charming doing the peace sign next to this guy. Of all the people to be acquainted, beautiful creature had to be friends with this cocky, Sehun guy?! Just my luck.

 

I shook my head quickly before giving Sehun back his phone. 'No, I don't think that's him.' I bit my lip, hoping he would believe it.

'Hm weird. I thought maybe we had mutual friends.' He shrugged, to which I silently sighed in relief. 'Anyway. I'll see you next class.' He raised his hand up for a high five. I stared at it for a few moments before rolling my eyes and giving him a high five.

'You were good today.' Was all I commented, to which I swear I saw a tiny smile appear on the corner of his mouth.

'Thanks. You too.' He nodded before walking off. I didn't have time to say anything else as my bus arrived. Quickly entering and taking a seat at a random spot, I took out my phone again, and smiled my Prince Charming's face. I tried to recall what it was Sehun asked only a few moments ago.

 

'His name was.... Luhan wasn't it?' I pondered to myself.

Chapter 30: Ahhh Luhan is indeed a sweetheart. He is your resident clean good boy type. The poster boy for perfect boyfriend. He has a lot of things he keeps to himself though.

But!!!!! I miss my Sehun! Where is he? I'm looking forward reading about him on the next chapter ?

Chapter 30: When you're caught between two handsome men, how could you not waver!? TT I almost feel bad for her, hahah. Gah, I like how you made the decision between Sehun and Luhan through the performances. Singing with Luhan or dancing with Sehun? Man, I mean that's hard itself. She could always do both as you said, to avoid the awkward consequences but you never know! I'm keen for both though. Lots of cute Luminzy here, but a lot of foreshadowing too. I wonder when Minzy will realise what Emi meant? Anyway I do miss Sehun! I wonder what's going on with him? Also I'm bracing myself for IU! Still yet to see what her impact is. Btw Luna and Jongin? *squeal* , that's cute though? Can we see some interactions maybe? (≧∇≦)
Good luck for the next chapter! You're doing great!

Chapter 29: Late Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too! Finally got time to read your update and ah so many feels. I mourned for a while regarding the tragic that happened a week before christmas, it was really hard. Hope you're fine now as well and had a good time spent during the holidays. Secondly, this made me watch that Lee Hi x Minzy - 1 2 3 4 performance they did in YG Fam concert back in 2014. Ugh, even more feels. As much as I love seeing Minzy free from the dungeon, I definitely miss YG Fam interactions. Secondly, I was totally fangirling when Luhan came. He really is so princely here, it's hard not to like him T_T And the stuff he vented out to Minzy made me sympathise with him even more! I thought I would liked Sehun a little more, but now I'm at loss again! Ah, I'm scared to see this end hahaha. And I can't figure out IU just yet, but she seems to be kind of still into Luhan? Minzy is adorably jealous yes, and it may affect how she sees IU (girl is already uncomfortable with her) but IU seems interested. Hmm, I have a feeling IU might do something in the future.

Anyway, good luck in finishing this in 6 months. I honestly want to do the same, y'know? Fingers crossed we can do it! Hehe. Until next time ♥
i_am_twisted #6
Chapter 29: Merry Christmas!!!! I like IU. I see her personality in some of the girls I know. I'm still Sehunzy coz I like Sehun's personality more. He has a angst, depth and he is mischievous and playful at the same time. I guess I've never been the type to like the clean good boy type? But whatever you decide I'm okay with it! Best of luck to finishing this fic! I will support you till the end :)

Chapter 28: Ah, the bromance gets me...T_T
I kind of feel for Sehun though, I mean, he's totally trying to smother his feelings but it was about time he realised them or even admitted to them. It's been Luminzy for quite a bit until recently. Now with IU's entry in the picture, I don't know how this will affect Luhan going for Minzy and what this also means for Sehun. I'm sure the girl will have an impact on these three and I can't wait to see what that'll be!

Btw omg, you're so lucky you got to see them in KCON Aus. I couldn't fly over to Sydney at the time, so I'm jelly. Imagining them and my other faves walking on the same soil got me sad all week lmfao (I didn't know D.O wasn't there either, awww). I hope you had an amazing time ♥

Chapter 28: The ending.. I didn't see it coming! I hope IU's not gonna be a jealous later after Luhan had decided to pursue Minzy. I feel so bad for Sehun like I know Luhan is his bro but boy pls wake up and fight for her too. I hope Minzy could sort out her feelings soon. Thankyou so much for updating!
Missyouwannabe #9
Chapter 28: “Tell me I still have a chance with you” CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING?!!!! My heart stopped and then double timed when he said this omfg.

Chapter 28: thanks for the mention, this has always been one of my favorite stories, and I love the sehunzy.
Omg luhanzy vs sehunzy ?
