The day has finally come!! I absolutely couldn’t believe that it was really happening. Running down the creaky steps, I ran to my umma who was in the kitchen, screaming telling her that today was the day, and asking her for the umpth time if she was really going to drive me to what I’ve been waiting for since I was born; my first SHINee concert. Me being the excellent planner I am, I had everything mapped out:

1.Long hot, soapy bubble bath so that your skin would be soft, clean and smell nice

2. Wear my super-ultra-mega-comfortable pajamas after you put on lotion, then paint my nails his favorite color

3.Once my nails are done drying, I’m going to go through everything in my closet to make sure my outfit is perfect

4.By now, it should be a couple hours before we have to get to the venue, so I should blow drying my hair around now

5.Once my hair is dry, I’ll put my outfit on to make sure its what I expected it to be. I’ll just change it if its not

6. Then Ill do my make up last so it’s freshly done and grab my bag that’s full of my SHINee CD’s, Posters, and t-shirts

7.When everything is done, and I’ve added some finishing touches, I’ll rush my mom out the door and into the car

-----------------

Oh my shesus, just thinking about the concert is giving me goose bumps!! I’m completely fangirling as I get my ipod out of my bag to plug it into the stereo system and sing along to my wonderful oppas as my mom turns onto the highway. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to change the song before Ugly by 2ne1 starts playing.

That’s when everything starts going downhill; I’m trying to hard. I’m not even close to being as pretty as the other noonas that are going to be at the concert- that are going to be standing next to me in comparison… I’m not anything that he would want in a girl… I keep listening to the song as my bottom lip trembles in heartache and embarrassment as I look up to the ceiling of the car, trying to hold back the tears that are threatening to fall and ruin my mascara.

The song ends with the last words, ‘I know I’m Ugly!’ and I look down to change the song before anything else comes on that'll make me feel worse than I already do. As I look down at the colorful screen, I select Bodyguard by SHINee and a single tear falls right on his face. “Sweetheart, don’t cry! You’ll ruin your make up~” My mom looks over at me and smiles sweetly as she hands me a tissue out of nowhere. “Thanks, umma…” I look down to wipe of the tiny puddle from my ipod screen, then out the window at the passing buildings.

Am I really going overboard? I know I’m not that pretty, but at least I try… Well, I can only hope for the best. It’s not like anything big is going to happen anyways- I’m a nobody. The rest of the car ride was silent except for the 5 shining boys’ angelic voices echoing throughtout the small space of the family Sedan.

-----------------

The place was jam-packed with tons of screaming girls. There was this poor, awkward looking van in front of us that was trying to make its way through the huge crowd surrounding the road as to try and not run over someone. The girls were screeching like banshee's as the van door opened on the left side. 

What the-?

I couldn’t breathe, my mom just sat there with her eyes popping out of her head, but I just couldn’t breathe. One by one, the SHINee boys filed out of the car.

With me being me, I’ve planned this scenario out numerous of times in my head, but my mind definitely wasn’t prepared for it to really happen!! The shining boys fixed their clothes as they smiled and waved to the fans. All five ended up looking at our car sympathetically since it was trapped by the swarm of bodies behind their van. They smiled even brighter and waved when they saw my mom and I gaping at them like fish out of water.

I don’t know how, because I knew I defiantly wasn’t thinking straight, but my hand came up and I twinkled my fingers in their direction as I felt a smile slowly spread across my face. I'm 210% sure that my face is beat red right now, I just know it! Plus, how is it even posible that my heart hasn't leapt out of my chest by now, I'll never know because I swore it had stopped when I saw Minho’s lion mane blow in the breeze when he stepped on the pavement. The last to come out was Onew, he stumbled out the van with his arms stretched in front of him as though to brace a fall, but Key caught him effortlessly and helped him to steady himself. Onew smiled apologetically, bowed a little to the crowd and waved all around him with a huge grin on his face until he stopped and stared at our car.

Oh God, he’s staring right at me! Is there something in my teeth?!  I clamped my mouth closed and slouched a little to try and blend in with the seats despite my colorful SHINee Girl tank top. I knew I was going to explode any minute; I actually had planned on dropping dead from their glory after the concert, but this is okay too. Jonghyun tugged on Onew's sleeve, making the wide eyed leader turn and jog to catch up with the rest of the group after taking a second glance in my direction before he slipped through the door.

When the chaos started to come fade to a dull roar, my mom finally managed to find a parking space- buuut I don’t really think it was legal...

-----------------

Omo, I’m going to get a good spot in line! T

here were only a couple of other girls standing in front of the long tables, waiting for the SHINee members to come out for signing. My mom had left me by myself to try to find the car to get ahead of the traffic, so she was probably wondering around the parking looking for our little blue car while I was drastically minorly fangirling over the most amazing concert I've ever been to.

I was clutching my bag close to me when I heard Taemin's cheerful voice chant something playfully as he jumped out from behind one of the curtains in a goofy pose. The few girls and I giggled as he took his seat, red in the face with Key and Jonghyun following behind clutching their stomachs as they tried to control their laughter. Minho came out with a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips as Onew trailed behind him fixing his bangs and jacket.

As soon as I realized that he was only a few paces away from me, my chest started to ache with the passion of a true Shawol. I didn’t really know what to do, so I just stood there and watched the few girls head over to the tables and talk to the band members casually, leaving him, the adorable, clumsy, sweet Onew, all by his lonesome. I was menatlly smacking myself  building up the courage to make my way over to the table when he looked directly at me.

We continued to stare at each other for a while, until he smiled a little and waved awkwardly. I smiled a little and gently fanned my fingers in his direction. I don’t know how, but my feet started to slowly walk in his direction. I was terrified!!

Omo, no, omo!! What am I going to say?! What am I doing!

I never thought this would happen in a million years!

Why are my legs still moving!? STOP!! 

I tried to force my legs to stop, and when they finally did, I looked up to find myself directly in front of his table with him smiling his big toothy smile right at me.

“H-h-h-hi, On-n-new op-p-ppa….” I was near tears… I seriously never thought I would ever say those words to his face in my entire life. “Hello there~, how are you?” He kept smiling. I dropped my gaze down to the table, whispering, “I’m e-ecstatic, thank you…and y-y-yours-self?” He leaned over the table and looked up into my watery eyes.

Please, don’t let my mascara be ruined, please!

I glanced at him and smiled. “I’m doing good thank you. Did you enjoy the concert?” Why does this moment feel like an eternity? I know a billion girls are going to fill this room any second now, and I’m standing here like an idiot! “It was amazing, thank you so much for coming out.” I managed to say above a whisper as I slowly looked up at him.

Oh God, I’m not worthy to look at his beautiful face… I’m ugly… 

“Anything for the fans. “ He stated definatively, his smile never faltering as he continued to look up at me.

That’s right, I’m a fan. Nothing more…

Not that I’d imagined and planned our entire future together…well, I hadn’t imagined it today…yet.

I nodded my head and looked him over; his hair was slightly matted to his forehead with sweat, but he still looked adorable. He wasn’t smiling as big now, but he was watching me stare at him. I blushed a deep shade of red as I asked, “Would you mind signing my things?” His smile broadened again and it took all my strength not to pass out.

I’m completely fan girling- pull yourself together!

“Absolutely!” He reached for one of the many pens near his hand as I brought out all my SHINee CD’s. He chuckled as he put his adorable signature on all of them before recapping the pen with a satisfied expression. “Umm...I have some..more….” I pulled out all my SHINee t-shirts, SHINee socks, a couple bracelets, and my favorite SHINee posters (I knew I couldn’t bring all of them, so I only brought 20).

He stared awkwardly at everything on the table for a moment, then looked back up at my scarlet red face. He smiled as he signed every.single.one. I couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear as I carefully placed the precious items neatly in my bag.

-By now, a reasonable line of people started to form-

I looked behind me then back at Onew. “Can I have a picture? Please?” I held up my camera and phone, shaking them gently, making my key rings jingle against my hand. He nodded and smiled as he started to stand. I turned to the girl behind me and smiled politey and asked her if she wouldn’t mind taking a good picture of Onew and I. She was pretty glad to do the deed, so I didn’t say anything other than a thank you.

As Onew walked around the long table, I couldn’t help but smile a little as he accidentally jabbed his hip into the corner of the table. “Omo, a-are you okay?” I asked when I heard the other girls giggling behind me.

Idiots, he could've actually hurt himself…

He winced a little and but nodded reassuringly as he rubbed his hip. “Just fine, but it’s definately going to be a long day, haha.” I can’t believe it, I’m sharing jokes and laughing with THE Onew. I wouldn’t mind dropping dead right now…well, after the picture at least. I smiled to myself, then to the camera.

Before the Noona took the picture, I nearly screamed and passed out; for posing for the picture I was already preparing myself for being able to stand next to him, but when Onew hesitantly wrapped his arm around my waist- yes, my waist- I nearly fainted. I couldn’t be happier, but then the flash went off, ending the gentle embrace and the perfect reality that I was so blissfully living. I walked to the camera to see if it was a good picture, praying that that Noona didn’t sabotage my moment. I nearly burst into tears; it was perfect. Onew walked over and stood next to me and looked over my shoulder at the picture. I looked behind me to see Onew walking away with a smile on his face as he rounded the table cautiously.

I walked forward to stand in front of him again. “I’m really sorry to b-bug you again, but I missed this p-poster. W-would you mind signing it? I promise it’s the last one!” I was completely embarrassed about how many things I brought; the second he'd reject me let me down easy, I would've turned away and dashed out of there in the split seconds I had to keep my dignity, but to my ultimate surprise, he snatched up a pen and plucked the cap off. I held out my poster with two shaky hands and he took it from me gently as he asked me for my name. When I told him, I couldn't help but notice the corner of his mouth curve into a genuine smile. “Such a graceful name…” I don’t know if he really meant to say that out loud at me, or if he was just mumbling to himself… I’m just going to go with the first guess(;

He turned the poster over and began writing what looked like an essay. “Now, you can’t read it until you get home, arasseo?” He told me as he rolled the poster up carefully. I nodded, more than happy to take a chance with Onew oppa. “Ne, gomasseumnida, oppa~!” I said as I bowed several times and walked down the table to gather the other members’ signatures and pictures.

-----------------

I told my umma every single little aspect; from the color of the walls to how touchy 2min were during the signing, except for when I was talking to- I mean, advising myself......heh... After my detailed story, she stated that we were going out for ice-cream to celebrate! I was couldn't be happier, but I really wanted to know what my oppa had written on the back of my most favored poster. “Umma, can we go for ice cream later? I really want to read what Oppa wrote me.” I was absent-mindedly rubbing the side of my bag in which the precious thing lay. “Okay, the latest we’ll go is 7 o'clock. Arraso? I don't wanna miss the newest episode of Family Outting~” I nodded and thanked her over and over as I put on the song Y.O.U by my ever-shining oppas.

-----------------

I gently set my bag on my bed and took out my posters, CD’s, accessories, and t-shirts and spread them out on my bed as I went to my desk drawer to grab some tape to re-hang the posters.

...

When the CD’s were back in alphabetical order on my shelf with my accessories properly displayed and my t-shirts hung up in that special spot in my closet I reached down to my last poster and saw that it was the one Onew had written on. I looked at his smiling face, then at the scribbles at the bottom of the page:

To (you) from Onew-SHINee

Thank you so much for coming out!! It’s great to see and hear all the support that the you and the fans give to my fellow members and I. I would like to say an extra thanks to you, because you made my day~

I’m sorry if I scared you when I saw you in your car earlier, you just looked so cute! Thank you for coming to the signing also, Minho was giving me a hard time on what to wear, so I wasn’t really in the best mood. But you cheered me up! Aigo~, I love the way your face changes colors when I smile at you ^-^ just made me want to smile even more. But yes! I just wanted to tell you not to let anyone bring you down and to keep smiling, cause your pretty when you smile! From me to (you), keep fighting~!!

–Onew <3

I was already bawling my face off when I saw his handwriting, but as I kept reading things just got worse for me; by the time I was finished, my hands were shaking and I was rolling on the floor crying (not really sure how I ended up down there, but I did).

I can’t believe he said those things! It’s as though he knew exactly what was going through my mind! Omo, I can’t believe Onew called me cute!! Heck, I still can’t believe today even happened! I’m going to remember this for all of eternity and tell this story to all the generations I live through. By the time I was able to calm down, I realized that my mom didn’t even come in to check on me…

Guess she’s used to it by now...

I was hanging up the poster close to were my pillow lay on my bed so that I can fall asleep to his smiling face and wake up to that same smile. A gentle knock on the door brought me out of my moment as I made sure that everything was in its rightful place. "You can come in~” The door opened slowly and my umma poked her head through. “I hope that those tears were a good thing…?” I smiled and nodded as I felt new tears burn the backs of my eyes.

Clapping her hands avidly, my mom giggled then opened the door a little wider, “That's fantastic sweety, I'm glad things turn out well. Would you want the ice cream now, then?” Nodding feverishly, I hopped off my bed and grabbed my ipod off the dock it was charging on, smiling as the ‘J’ and yellow heart jingled next to my hand. “Definitely.”

Before I was all the way through the threshold of my bedroom door, I looked back at the poster; I know I was going to come back to reread it over and over again until I fall asleep, but I just wanted to look at it before I left. Everything felt like a dream...yeah....that’s the only way I can describe today; I still feel a little numb and super tingly from everything, even though the concert was only a couple of hours ago. Only a couple hours ago… I met him in person.

Only a couple hours ago…

It was still unbelievable.

As I closed the door behind me, I could still feel Onews arms draped gently around my waist as I walked down the hall. As I enthusiasctically sang to Gee by SNSD, I skipped down the stairs with overflowing joy as I walked out of the house and got into the car to go get my icy treat.
