Neo Heart [NCT OT23 AU Fanfiction Story]

🦦 SONG #1: "FROM HOME"

Osaki Shotaro

A week later, Karrie was fixing her hair into a ponytail. "This should be done," She said to herself before leaving her room. "Hey!" a familiar voice of a friendly giant called her. "Oh, morning yongho. Grabbing Breakfast?" she asked as johnny nodded before walking together. "How was the luxurious accommodation of your assigned rooms on your dorm building?". "It was cool but it feels the same as usual back in Seoul. I never thought that I could be at peaceful sleep for staying in a dorm building with individual rooms." He answered. "Well, it was good to say that. Comfy home I guess" She shrugged. "Krish told me that Zeluox members were eager to share some of my skincare secrets. Well, I could answer that coffee will be the best to maintain healthy skin" He laughed. "Sounds like a lie, You giant asshole." Karrie frowns. "Language and manners please, Milady" Johnny patted her head with a huge grin.  

"Will you stop insulting my own family!?" a loud voice roars from the empty practice room. "who was that?" Karrie asked in surprise. "Let's sneak then" He suggested before they sneak peek at the door like curious kids. It was NCT 127 Member Yuta arguing with one of the new members. "You should accept the fact, Shotaro. No matter how talented you are. You were still soft-hearted." Yuta said seriously. The new member of NCT named Shotaro looked down as tears almost threatened on his cheeks. "YOU'RE THE WORST PERSON I EVER MET!" He yelled that almost make Yuta mad. "Yuta stop it!" Johnny butts in before Shotaro ran away. "But Johnny--". "Don't let your insecurity out to insult others." He stated to make his fellow shut his mouth. Karrie was amazed to see Johnny's serious face. "Excuse me" Karrie interrupts and went out to chase Shotaro. "Why did you stop me? I did tell the real statement as an idol about our living" Yuta said. "Arent you really feel considerate to yourself? Because you've been through these too since rookie days." He said making his fellow member hit by his words. "You should encourage him instead of telling some worst advice to Shotaro," He said as Yuta finally gives in and accept his defeat. "I'll apologize to that kid later if he was now okay. I actually feel sorry that I hurt his feelings. Especially he misses his family and friends back in Japan," Yuta said. Johnny sighs and looks at the window.

Afterward, Shotaro heard a knock on his room. "Stay away from me hyung!" He shouted as Karrie open the door bringing something much to his surprise. "Oh...Sorry, I thought it was Yuta Hyung" He wipes his tears. "It's Karrie. Here have some quick breakfast" She gave him a huge egg bread and a cup of coffee. Shotaro accepts it and starts to eat as soon as he takes it. "You were a new member of NCT right?" She asked and he nodded while munching. "I and Sungchan were the new member of NCT. You know, Another tall guy who sat beside Chenle and Jisung during a meeting yesterday" He explained. She nodded while looking at the hungry otter. "You'll be fine, Sho." She said with a smile. "Thank you and nice to meet you um...Ms. Karrie" He blushed as she laughs to see his cuteness. 

In the afternoon, Other NCT members were teaching other trainees in groups for vocal and dance. As for Eva and Karrie, They were busy polishing their own vehicle. "No way! That's the latest Ferrari model!" Chenle said excitedly as other members Jeno & Renjun came to them. "Well hello there babies~ You're right. I brought the latest model too." Eva said. "You see, Evangelina's father was Car retailer CEO in America and Europe. She gave me this sniper motorcycle as a graduation present" Karrie said while looking at her motorcycle. "Karrie, you said that you brought a customize led helmet that matches your motorcycle?" Eva asked. "Well, it is." She shows her black cat custom motorcycle helm to them. "But how will it shows that it was led?" Jeno asked but then she wore the helmet and once it locked, the neon face of a tiger shows on her face shield that makes them surprised. "S-Seriously?" Eva was now amazed. "The led lights will be on if I wear it on and also it moves when I talk. Daegal will be scared of me if it shows this" Karrie laughed. "Noona that was cool!!" Renjun's eyes went sparkle to see that the led mouth moves when she talks. "Good choice of custom girl~ My Dad would be amazed to see this" Eva said while the youngest took off her helmet then pass it to the dreamies who wants to see it. "Shotaro hyung was kinda bummed these days. Something happened?" Chenle asked. "It's a long story, Lele." She answered in a wry smile while they turn to see Jeno and Renjun were discussing cars with their Eva noona."By the way, Karrie. Johnny seemed very close these days to you. If you don't mind, Can I flirt with him? He's very sexy and tall." Eva teased the youngest as she feels both bit jealous and teases at the same time. "You have tons of boys out there. Also, Johnny and I were close friends. So, don't make me tease about it" Karrie groans and Eva laughed telling her that it was a joke while the dreamies were busy looking at her car. "Tons of boys?" Renjun asked. "You see, Evangelina was a huge playgirl vibe and very similar to Evelynn," Karrie replied. "Geez, Shut it girl~" Eva laughed. "Kids! Dance workout!" Taeyong called the dreamies as they went to their leader. "I guess it's my cue to go to the club then. One of the car management company want to meet me there exclusive" Eva said before going inside the car and drive off to her urgent meeting. "Be careful on your way then" Karrie reminded before going back inside.   

>>FAST FORWARD<<  

She went out late at night to get some food for her room fridge until she saw Shotaro at one of the dance studios playing mobile games. "Little Otter seems alone tonight." She mumbled then tap the glass window until Shotaro notice and does a "go out" hand signal. Afterward, They were in a parking basement. "Whoa~ This motorbike was very cool!" Shotaro said while wearing his extra helm."Yeah. Let's get some cool air. Tonight was very fun to go out" She checked the engine before they hop on her motorcycle and drive off outside. "The city lights, the music, and the night people. This is an awesome place. It feels like home for me when I saw this place," He said as Karrie smiled at the young guy before speed up to reach the seaside area located in the road properties.  

"Wow! Boats are everywhere! And the smell of the sea at night. This is fantastic!" Shotaro said after they get off the vehicle parking at the seaside. "This place where I could get fresh air when I got trouble in practice sessions for the cover dance competition and sometimes a chill spot" She hands out a big hot meat bun for him and He takes it. "About what did we argue between me and Yuta hyung. It was actually about the dream of being an idol. I know my dreams came true but then Yuta hyung told me the reality of being an idol. Of course, I didn't believe it at all. It scares me if I don't make it right. Somehow, I really miss my home, My parents, and my friends back there" He said while munching his food. She listens about his feelings that remembers her past years as a trainee and ended up been chosen as the last member of her cover group. "Debut will be a huge dream but you should be prepared too in case some haters will attack you. Be yourself, Sho. Don't ever lose yourself. Society these days was kinda worse but if you yourself don't care about it. Just enjoy yourself for who you are. Accept your flaws and smile" She said making him smile towards her words then look at the night sky. "I may be new as an idol but, I will do my best; I've come this far from home to reach my dreams and now, I became one of them. I'll give all for my fans" Shotaro said as She gives him a nod with a smile.  

After they came back to their huge dorm, Shotaro saw Yuta along with Johnny. "Can I have your time for a minute, Sho?" Yuta asked as Shotaro looks at Karrie and she nodded before he left with Yuta hyung. "He really wants to say sorry for Shotaro that's why he came here," Johnny said. "Yeah, And what are you doing at this late hour, Mr.Suh?" She crossed her arms and raise her eyebrow at him. "Yuta might need company so I did. Guess what, Eva really flirts me during dinner time but yeah, jokingly I did flirt back and reject her" He said much to the youngest shock. "You shouldn't do that bro. Otherwise, She'll break your heart and play it like a doll." She frowns as Johnny laughed at her. "Jealous?" He grinned. "Oh, Shut up bastard," She said then give some snack for him. "Yey! Gummy candies! Thank you, Karrie" He said excitedly. "Your welcome kiddo~," She said before getting off her vehicle and hold her helmet. "Shotaro told me something about you. Back in your yearbook promotions as a whole group, You really prep up your abs in each photoshoot eh! I never thought that a giant baby would be too sizzling!" She teased him making him embarrassed. "I'll poke his ass tomorrow for this" he sighs but is still embarrassed while she laughed at him.  

The next day, She saw Shotaro in the usual dance studio but his mood was good. "Looks like someone's got sun rays on its face," She said as he notices her. "Good morning. Also, I want to say thank you for your advice. I think I should accept this fate but I will work hard and do my best" Shotaro smiled as she felt relieved to hear it. "Better hide to Yuta now. Because a monster from Chicago will come to hunt you down after you revealed something about him" She said before she went out. "EH!?" Shotaro shouted as Karrie laughed at him. "NCT huh? There might be interesting about them behind the stage" She smiled before looking at the window where birds chirping outside for another sunny day.
