“we’re leaving in five minutes,” one of their managers reminds them, looking up from her phone where jisoo is peering at. she ruffles the maknae’s hair with a grin, and jisoo squawks indignantly. “good job again, girls.”
lisa smiles, a warm feeling in her chest from looking at all the people around her, the ones that she’s worked alongside for the past nine years. there’s unbelievable energy and a kind of freedom of expression lisa has only ever felt while performing, but in the aftermath of the adrenaline rush and in the dying light of the day, it’s these simple little moments that she somehow can’t help but treasure just as much.
a small flash of light comes from nearby followed by a shutter click, and lisa whips her head around to look straight into the lens of a camera.
black bucket hat. it’s the person with the camera from earlier.
for a brief moment, lisa feels a surge of pure panic as she wonders just why someone is taking pictures of her.
and then she remembers that she’s an idol, that she just performed in public, and that she should be trying to smile like her members do when they are mobbed by their numerous fansites instead of glare at what turns out to be a man with black hair and wide, apologetic eyes, clutching nervously at his camera as he gazes frozenly back at lisa.
black bucket hat has a facemask on covering him up to his nose, and the brim of his hat is pulled down low over his head; yet despite how his eyes are the only visible part of his face, they seem incredibly expressive, enough so that lisa thinks she can see every candid emotion written on his face.
instantly, lisa feels regretful and embarrassed; she quickly changes her expression into something more friendly, lips tugging up in a sheepish smile as she gives a small wave.
appearing just as flustered as lisa, black bucket hat ducks his head and lets go of his camera with one hand to timidly wave back. the action causes lisa to realize how oddly very harmless he looks. if he really is a stalker, his body language definitely doesn’t show it.
“lisa omg, is that a fansite?” rosé squeals excitedly, appearing by lisa's elbow and causing her to yelp and startle in surprise.
another camera flash and click seems to confirm her words, as the three of them turn toward the stranger standing a few meters away. bucket hat doesn’t look up from behind his camera this time, just keeps it trained on the three members, patient and steady, likely waiting for them to do something photo-worthy. lisa is honestly still figuring out what exactly that entails.
“master-nim, do you have a fansite name?” chaeyoung calls curiously, and jennie winces and complains that she’s yelling in her ear.
lisa watches, intrigued, as the fansite hastily stuffs a hand into the pocket of his jacket, pulling out a nametag to attach to the top of his camera.
“0327fairy,” jisoo reads slowly, squinting at the blocky english letters. she turns to lisa with a beaming grin. “lisayah, that’s your birthdate!”
indeed, but lisa isn’t sure how to react; she feels frozen in place, a bit too shocked to really move. this could all be a coincidence, she thinks, still skeptical, still unwilling to believe. she isn’t well-known, not even nearly as much as the other members. not to mention that a fansite can be for any one, any group, multiple idols at once. a single number means nothing.
but as she watches 0327fairy lower his camera once more to meet lisa's gaze, shy in his movements yet somehow conveying warmth in the way the corners of his eyes crinkle, the way he gives lisa a slight, subtle nod, she finds herself believing otherwise.
“lets go,” their manager says, approaching the four of them. with one last glance at the boy in the bucket hat, lisa looks away and begins walking toward the van.
“who was that?” their manager asks them once they’re all piled into the car, their manager starting the engine.
“lisa's fansite,” chaeyoung says excitedly with a clap, and their manager's eyes widen in surprise, turning to lisa for confirmation. lisa can only nod slowly in return, still trying to convince herself that it’s true.
“really? how do you know?”
“he was taking pictures of lisa during the performance and also after,” jennie pipes in while lisa reaches over for her phone. “also, he looked like he knew we were scheduled to leave from here.”
as the murmurs of her members’ conversation fills the car, lisa looks down at the website from her search results, heart hammering in her chest. the tips of her ears flush as she gazes back at a photo of herself since their debut stage, taking in the proud, determined smile on her own face.
if that isn’t enough proof, enough hope, then it’s in the caption that she’s faced with the truth of it all:
“0327fairy
dedicated to blackpink's lisa.”
