Roughly a week had passed since they had their first encounter in the bar. Even though the idol had been beyond busy, time still felt as if it was too sluggish to move forward. Guess people say time stops once you wait for something, or rather someone, important.
As they texted they both agreed on the week day and the time to meet at a little but fancy café outside the center of the city to avoid causing a ruckus. The idol had grown a liking to the quiet café, normally not many people would visit it. Plus, it had nice little corners in which you could hide.
After all Uki had been a well known idol even all around the world, there was always this chance of somebody recognizing him.
It felt nice receiving recognizing for your hard work and dedication, a satisfying little reward. Still, it could get on his nerves sometimes.
Getting noticed by the media or fans no matter where you went, regardless of the time of the day, wasn't particularly that great. Privacy and personal space were often neglected by sick fans which was really sad.
Nevertheless the idol could concentrate on the positive side of the situation – he would meet Fulgur soon. A nice fan.
A fan?
Was he really allowed to do this? An idol privately meeting a fan? Thinking about it thoroughly, he perceived it as rather weird. Fulgur wasn't like the rest, he was just so diffrent – really relaxed but still humorous. He still had to figure that out.
Tapping impatiently against the wood of the big table in the conference room, Uki sighed as he looked at the clock. The long meeting which was held because of Uki's new comeback felt eternal for the idol. They had talked about the concept and song. Their decision fell on a futuristic concept with a cyberpunk aesthetic. Everything was done – well that was at least what the idol thought. So why did he have to be there for the marketing? It was just wasting his previous time he could spend with a certain someone.
Noticing the bored expression on Uki's face, Alban cleared his throat to catch his attention. The purple haired turned to face him, an irritated look on his face being present as the speech of person who was attempted to explain something about the comeback became background noise.
Then Alban raised his brows warningly, looking over to the irrelevant person with his eyes to point at him. Understanding that Alban was scolding him – he could hear his high pitched voice in his head saying things like "You better listen" or "I also don't wanna be here but I have to because of you." – Uki sat up straight as an attempt to focus on the words properly.
No matter how hard he tried, the words of the one talking didn't make sense for his exhausted brain. The purple haired looked outside the way too huge window to see the orange sun setting on the horizon, slowly sinking between the skyscrapers till it disappeared behind the smaller buildings.
Crap – he wasn't focusing again, was he?
Everything else seemed more interesting than the things he had to worry about. Thinking about a certain gray haired was just too tempting.
"We will discuss further information in the next meeting." Another irrelevant person from the company spoke, you could tell clearly he was just there for the business. Uki was the opposite actually. He had been there for the music from the beginning on. The idol was too amazed by the idea of moving people's heart with his music, creating a comfy little safespace in the wide universe.
He was the star which shone so brightly in that eternal universe.
And yes, he also was the star who dashed out of the conference room as fast as possible to not be late for his rendezvous.
Watching the idol storm out of the building was too amusing for Alban – seriously, he just had to smile when he observed how Uki pressed the button of the elevator repeatedly with a furious expression on his face. Oh he was so desperate.
"Have a nice date!" The light brown haired shouted after the idol who was disappearing behind the elevator doors. Before shouting Alban had made sure no one was around to listen to their conversation. It could've gotten them in trouble, especially Uki, since he wasn't allowed to date actually.
"Thank you! I will." Uki shouted back with a smile. Suddenly feeling energised again, the Idol sprinted out of the building while slipping the hood over his head. Unfortunately the relatively bright purple colour of his hair usually helped the media with recognizing him easily, so he had to hide it most of the time.
Getting into his car, the male slipped out a new face mask and a pair of sunglasses. No matter how often he did this to prevent people from noticing him, he always felt silly for hiding that way.
Luckily his company allowed him to go out on his own, still Alban had to look after him from time to time which saved him multiple times.
After a short car ride the idol arrived at the said destination, the said little nice café far away from the city center.
To his surprise he saw the gray haired already waiting for him in front of the entrance. Parking the car and getting out of it, the purple haired walked closer to Fulgur, speeding up his pace as he couldn't wait any longer.
Without any warning, Uki threw himself on the other while wrapping his arms around the taller. Immediately reacting to the tight hug, Fulgur also returned the sweet action.
"How have you been?" The gray haired asked softly as he leaned a bit back to look at the smaller in his arms. One week of not seeing the other was way too long. He really missed him.
Those feelings were mutual.
"Fine, just a bit stressful because of work. And you?" The purple haired answered with his head buried in the younger's crook of neck.
"My week was pretty okay. Nothing much happened. I missed a certain someone." Fulgur stated, a giggle escaping his mouth.
"Missed you too." The idol said as he slowly broke the hug. Looking at the taller, he saw full adoration in his gray eyes.
