Spring/Summer In My Heart

Description

Being a fashion student was rarely fun. Surrounded by a bunch of weird girls with even weirder concepts of homouality, Kyungsoo was done with everyone in general.
And yet all he could dream of(besides another Sherlock season and achieving his graduation in one piece) was finding his soulmate.
Was that SO much to ask for?

Foreword

Hello guys~
After finally finishing my first chaptered fic I'm starting with my next project!
This is gonna be some virtual playground for me where I can experiment a lot~
First of it's my first attempt at a Rom-Com and comedy in general. Give me some time, I'll get into it.
This story is different from my other works though, since the chapters are gonna be short. In fact as short as I like cause I can do whatever I want! c:

 

The Cover is actually the very first poster I ever got and it will forever have a very special place in my heart~ ♥
Thank you very much once more, -qhyuns ♥
The poster was part of her portfolio which you can view over here:

I hope you'll enjoy this nonsense~
I cherish every comment, vote and subscriber deeply x3
It's a huge motivation, really!

Love,
Sugar-and-Salt ♥

~Starring~

 

 

Do Kyungsoo
"You can fix me right now... D-did I say that out loud?"

Age: 21
Occupation: student(Fashion Design) - 4. semester

100% not into girls.
Aims to work at a big theater one day.
Likes to use national clothing as an inspiration.

Since the start of the new term Kyungsoo is finally the only guy left. The only guy in a bunch of weird and unpredicatble girls with totally ludicrous ideas of homouality.
He's a rather quiet one among people he doesn't know too well. Also his shyness is no joke.
Only among his friends, ChenChen (and Baekhyun) you'll get the full scope of unfiltered Kyungsoo, who's a shameless nerd and fanboy who can develop interest in almost anything, with a sarcastic and snarky attitude and maybe a tidbit of a erted mind.


Park Chanyeol
"Alriiight... Whatever floats your boat. I guess. Not judging you."

Age: 21
Occupation: part-timer with more jobs than recommendable

Passionate about music.
Lately, his YT subscribers have been increasing rapidly.
Perfectly whipped by his little baby sister.

Working as a temporary staff at a craftsman company.
Out of all his jobs, he prefers this one the most since everyone's very friendly.
Dreams of enrolling at a music school one day.
He had a girlfriend until graduation when she dumped him.
Now's he far too busy to waste thoughts on that.
Oh well, but there's always some time for the latest One Piece chapter though...


Kim Jongdae
"Why do people keep requesting for Rihanna?! Why do only 12 year-olds hit on me?! I DON'T DESERVE THIS."

Age: 21
Occupation: single part-timer

Nickname/In-Game name: Chen(Chen)
Fawns over games, anime and manga together with Kyungsoo.

Kyungsoo's best friend since middle school, and both have no intentions on letting each other go anytime soon, contently living together. Even though not openly visible they're completely on the same wave-length and the sarcasm and self-irony is always on point.


Lu Han
"Yeah, I also love Martial Arts. I once did some. Uh. What was it's name?"

Age: 24
Occupation: student(Fashion Design) - 6. semester

Came to Korea to study.
Very earnest and diligent student.
Focuses on... 'interesting' clothing.

Is actually a cool guy to hang out with but gets odd when in "designer-mode".
Otherwise he's a boisterous and fun guy, a ert behind his angel-looks.


Byun Baekhyun
"LIVE a little, guys."

Age: 22
Occupation: student(Fashion Design) - 3. semester

Student from another Designschool in Seoul.
'Work hard, play harder'-type.
Always in to take androgyny to a new level.

Met Kyungsoo and Jongdae at a small fashion exhibtion.
Leave it to him to cause trouble or get stupid ideas that Jongdae will keenly agree on while Kyungsoo denies knowing him(he does that a lot, anyway).
It's a mystery to everyone how he can party that much without lacking in his studies.

 

Kim Minseok
"Soulmates are my favourite Au-I mean GENRE. Yeah."

Age: 24
Occupation: Barista/waiter/handyman at a small coffee shop

In-Game name: Xiumin
Pen-name: IcyEyes

The goofy long-term gaming partner of Jongdae.
Actually a rather laid-back and open-minded person with a strong work-ethic.
Content with his simple life and hobbies. Likes to work out and write - his stories are actually pretty popular these days.
Closeted Fanfic-author.

 

Kim Junmyeon
"I think I could use some change. Maybe I'll re-paint my walls. Yes. I'll do that."

Age: 24
Occupation: full-time employee at an industrial architecture office

The accomplished elder step-brother of Kyungsoo.
His life's going smoother than yours.
Always.

Went to school, graduated, went into job training for 2 years, got recommended to a good company and is now a full-time employee.
Walks past you with a friendly smile while you stumble through your life like a three-legged cat.
Still, he's always friendly, caring and has a rather awkward and dorky side which makes him someone you cannot truly hate.


Kim Jongin
"I can't decide whether to go as Kai or Jongin..."

Age: 20
Occupation: student(veterinary medicine) - 2. semester

Got laughed at by his whole family when he announced to study a branch of medicine, since he's the impersonation of laziness.
Just your average, broke college student.

Jongin is a kind, animal-loving soul who wished he could own a pet in his dorm. He occupies the practice rooms in the art department more than most art students together.
Part-time model for his friends.
The name "Kai" is an invention of Baekhyun though no one knows anything specific.

 

Oh Sehun
"Objects are easier. They don't tell you they look fat from that angle."

Age: 20
Occupation: photographer in training - last year of training

Sehun has never been keen on social interaction and is determined to become a nature photographer. Secretly he wishes his self-esteem would grow until he can trust himself to freely explore the world with his camera. Until then, he'll try to make ends meet and prefers to stare instead of actually approaching people.


 

Wu Yifan
"I don't think I can work like this. I clearly told you I only drink original coke."


Age: 23
Occupation: model

Model-name: Kris
That one model that can turn your shoot into a nightmare.
...But is forgiven since he DOES know his stuff.

Kris works at a model agency that's operating internationally. Since he likes Korean fashion, he came to Korea as soon as he graduated.
He's quite the diva and only people who garnered his respect are able to handle him.
Though there seems to be a reason for his troublesome attitude...

 

Zhang Yixing
"Doesn't 4am count as 'morning' as well in Korea...?"

Age: 22
Occupation: ?

Neighbour of Kyungsoo and Jongdae, lives at the second floor.
Has a thick accent but never forgets polite suffixes.

Kyungsoo only ever catches a glimpse of him at ungodly hours when he leaves the apartment or returns. Speculating about his actual occupation is especially Jongdae's favourite past-time.
From what they saw so far he's a harmless and polite fellow though.

 

Huang Zitao
"A One-Night-what? Sorry, my Korean is very bad."

Age: 21
Occupation: bartender in training - first year of training

Pretty good grasp of the Korean language.
Still tends to forget about polite speech on purpose

The cool-cat moody bartender that enchants customers at the counter;
the diligent, eager(and still moody) trainee behind the counter.
Tao has a bubbly and energetic nature, though he refuses to stick too long with boring tasks.
He's a peculiar cross between a sceptic realist and  a mushy closeted romantic who reads deep quotes on tumblr.

Chapter 45: love the new update. somehow I can relate strongly to kyungsoo being over tired (and I'm also moving house right now so I could relate to that too) I'm glad you're not rushing the because it feels more realistic when they try but life gets in the way. That's not something I've read in many other fics actually. I actually forgot about lutao as a side couple...(oops) but I'm looking forward to seeing their chapter!!!
I hope writing goes smoothly for you!!

Chapter 45: aaaaaa i missed this fanfic so much!!
This chapter was gold! And both are so cute to each other...... but i won't lie to you, i was expecting a hehe guess me and channie had the same idea :)))
Anyways, I hope you can update soon even tho i'm not ready to say goodbye to this fanfic (i wish it could last a little bit longer so we could see more of jealous chanyeol and bold kyungsoo hihi).
Oh and if you're doing a special chapter to taohan, could you do to baekxing as well? It's my favorite side paring :3 (me a chansoo and baekxing enthusiast fhdhdg)
I'll be waiting for your next update and if you're having a hard time right now, cheer up!! You can do it♡
