Setting: Highschooler, romance, fluff

It had been a while Woohyun kept his eyes on the musical club president. If he had to count from the first time, it was since the last summer festival camp (the last week of the holiday). So, it had been two months already. Each year, his school will arrange a festival where the school is open for everybody to come and play at the booth open by each clubs in the school. And at the last night of the two-day open days, there will be a talent night and all the school clubs are required to send a team to do the performance.

Woohyun still remembered that night.

He was left alone at the counter as his two friends were missing, he didn’t want to care where did the two idiots had gone to – probably up each other face, Woohyun bet.

His eyes wandered around. The performance was soon to start. He was lucky he got excluded from performing this year as his soccer club got new people to show their talent (or more likely his captain forced the freshmen to do it on their club’s behalf, that cruel Ho-captain).

The girls were cheering as the hot student council president stood behind the podium. He lifted the microphone and spoke. The girls swooned over his voice. Woohyun rolled his eyes, knowing that the president had that effect to everyone. Despite his cold face and stern look, his voice was soft but strict in a way you can be intimidated to it. The president announced the performance was starting and Woohyun set his eyes lazily to the stage, quite not knowing what else to do as his two stupid friends wasn’t there.

One after one performance done and the girls went crazy by each of the cool performance. Woohyun admitted that this year most of the representatives were freshmen and yet they’re so talent in dancing and singing. Woohyun found himself clapping a bit for his team tho. His clubs chose to showcase a hip hop dance and Woohyun liked it so much.

His ears heard the last performance had come. Woohyun turned around and noticed his friends didn’t come back yet. He rolled his eyes to remember that he was there because of the two and yet they’re missing during the whole time. Woohyun huffed and turned back to the stage as audience were clapping for the most anticipated performance every year. The musical club.

Woohyun didn’t know why but it was a tradition. Their club will be the last to perform as the closing stage and yet people had say that they’re always the best. Woohyun didn’t get to see it last year because his clubs went out for some food right after their performance. His best friend (one of the two he did mention this entire long), Sungyeol fed him up with some information that the musical club did different type of performance each year. They were on their rise since last two years where their president was changed and to people’s shock; he was a first year student at that time. People always had him in their talks, praising his talent in singing and as well as being so creative to create such a cool performance.

The stage became dark as Woohyun was in his thought. He fell back to the reality when a voice – as cliché as it may sound – very soft and angelic voice rang in his ears. Woohyun fixed his eyes to the stage. A spotlight lighted up upon a male. Woohyun’s eyes stared at the male, unable to move or even blink. He was star-struck.

The male was singing, so melodious even without a melody accompanied him. Yup, he had been singing by his voice only but yet it was so harmonious in Woohyun’s ears. Woohyun released a breath, not noticing he had been holding it since that unknown male sang. He tried to breathe normally but he noticed he can’t, each word and note that male hit made he lost his breath. Woohyun’s eyes still stuck on the male, not only his voice his feature and figure on the stage made Woohyun stunned. He felt warmth just to stare at the male from here. His heartbeat paced up even they’re too far apart. Woohyun felt a rush of adrenaline when the male smiled and closed his lips tight, another voice heard and the spotlight moved. The beautiful male engulfed by the dark. Woohyun gritted his teeth, almost cursing as he can’t see that male at that time. A female had taken up the stage with her singing and the stage lighted up soon, revealing few more females behind her. The song started and they danced. Woohyun noticed there were some sort of acting along the dancing they did but he was careless with that. His eyes kept finding the male as some more people came joining the dance but the male was nowhere to be seen. Woohyun grunted.

The dancing stopped as the song stopped. The female looked around, the rest was paused leaving only her alone still moving. At that time, a bright smile formed on Woohyun’s lips when he saw the male again coming out from the left side. He delivered his dialogue in a sing-sang tone to the female. Woohyun can’t focus on their acting as his eyes were all set on the male and the voice of his alone.

The interaction continued before an upbeat song heard and the people behind them moved again. This time, they’re b-boying (the males did while the females were supporting) and Woohyun noticed the beautiful male made a confused look. The lead-female (Woohyun assumed that as she gives that vibe) laughed silently and nudged the male to join the dance. He was refusing and the song changed again, the other paused except the male. He sang along with the song and gave a big bow to the audience. The audience was clapping, Woohyun who didn’t listen to the content just clapped along. The performance ended there and Woohyun was frantic. He didn’t want it to end there; he wanted to see more of the other male. The stage darkened and Woohyun had a displeased face.

“Nam Woohyun!” Woohyun heard Myungsoo’s voice. Woohyun startled as he saw his two friends. They gave him a look. Woohyun blinked and raised his brow.

“Nam Woohyun! Wake up brat!” Woohyun flinched and blinked. His eyes stuck on his coach’s face. He just realized he was daydreaming in the middle of the field. The rest of his teammates were looking at him. The practice had stopped somehow. “Are you fine or not?”

Woohyun blinked and felt a pain on the left side of his head. He groaned and held his head. The coach scoffed. Woohyun noticed the captain of his soccer club, Hoya was also there beside him. “Hey dude. I really want to scold you for spacing out but are you okay or not? Sunwoo’s kick was quite hard.” Hoya’s voice heard. Woohyun blinked and rubbed his head.

“That’s explaining to me why my head felt hurt?” The coach and the captain looked at each other and then back to Woohyun.

“I think he’s seriously ill.” The coach blurted out. Hoya looked at Woohyun.

“Did you lose your mind, Woohyun?” Hoya asked.

“Huh?” Woohyun blinked dumbly. The coach called a guy from the bench, to substitute with Woohyun.

“Go and take a rest at th
