the school gym is currently looking so pretty great and amazing, lots of decorations and props here and there. today's finally the school fair, and the event is going to start in an hour.

beomgyu smiled at the thought of himself finally confessing to taehyun. after his performance, he made sure that he's going to confess right after, since he can't take it anymore because all of these feels whenever he's with taehyun are just too much.

he is so excited for this fair knowing that the love of his life is going to watch his performance later. so, what beomgyu did was go to the school rooftop to relax his mind, and maybe practice a bit. clearing his throat, he started singing;

catch the rain
even on a sunny day

while singing, the boy didn't notice someone going upstairs to the rooftop with him. the door opened and there taehyun saw beomgyu singing, facing his back to him.

i swear I'm not excusing,
i'll cross my heart to prove it
but she seems tired 'cause we've been through this

taehyun go up here most of the time, to breathe in fresh air, to clear his thoughts, or just to stare at the sky and the view. now, how lucky of him to stare nothing of that but only to the older who's singing his heart out.

and I know you said that we're not a thing
but you're here, that's the thing
and I'm not trying to give you a ring

well, maybe on the phone if you let it sing

taehyun walked closer, breathing in the smell of air's breeze, inhaling the older's calming voice. listening to the lyrics, he figured out that it was kind of similar to something but he decided to push it out his mind.

you're overcomplicating everything
when the lights go down,
don't say i didn't warn you
i don't think that's legal in the state of california

taehyun clapped when beomgyu finished the song, startling the older.

"t-taehyun, what the hell?! since when did yo—" beomgyu was cut off when taehyun fixed his flying hair strands because of the wind, tucking it in his ears.

"you sound so good, hyung. you didn't tell me that you could sing. are you going to perform later?" taehyun happily praised the older who's currently getting flustered, blushing by every second passing by.

beomgyu frowned a bit, thinking that his 'surprise performance' might be not a surprise anymore. kai, soobin, even yeonjun, and of course taehyun, have no idea about this performance that beomgyu prepared for them. more like, for taehyun... that's why.

"oh, uh.. no! i was just singing because i— i kinda want to, you know, practice my vocals ... hahaha" beomgyu replied, the younger just nodded and smiled.

"then what are you doing here?"

"i was just looking for some fresh air, o-of course."

taehyun hummed, not fully convinced. he knows his hyung got something hidden from him, but he won't push him if he doesn't want to tell him. beomgyu spent days to find the good matching song to perform for this day, he just hoped that taehyun would be oblivious and just go with the flow.

"i want the chocolate one!"

"me too, hyung!"

yeonjun rolled his eyes as he grabbed his wallet from his pocket, ready to buy the chocolate waffles for kai and soobin who's been bugging him ever since they went around the place where there's a lot of mini stores and booths.

"three orders of chocolate waffle, please" yeonjun smiled to the waitress and paid for their orders.

"thank you hyung, i know you love me too much" soobin snickered beside yeonjun, making the older look like a red fresh cherry.

"hey, he also bought me one, you know. stop acting like you're a couple or something..." kai teasingly glared at the two, yeonjun just stood there spacing out.

"uh yeah, anyways... where's the other two?" yeonjun asked, laughing breathily because of the awkward tension.

"i think taehyun went somewhere, i don't know where the hell is beomgyu." soobin replied.

"hm? the show's about to start" kai said, and yes it is. the students are already gathering around, finding the perfect seat to lay their ass on with their snacks on their hands, but the two of five friends are still nowhere to find.

"let's go now, let's just reserve them a seat. kai, go message beomgyu that we're going to be at the front row, also taehyun." soobin told the youngest and he gladly complied.

after almost an hour passed, the event already started and a few students who performed was enjoyed by lots from the crowd, including kai, soobin and yeonjun. and the fact that they're too caught up with the performances that they didn't notice that taehyun and beomgyu are still not here with them.

while the three are enjoying the event, the other two are also watching the performances. the difference is that, taehyun is here with beomgyu at the backstage.

beomgyu insisted the younger to just leave him and go with yeonjun and others so that he can watch the performances in the best view, but taehyun didn't budge since he don't really want to leave the older's side.

taehyun already knew that beomgyu is going to perform, but has no idea that it is for him. of course, beomgyu isn't that dumb to tell the younger that he's going to dedicate a song for him tonight so be ready and blah blah blah.

"hyung, who pushed you to perform tonight? as far as i know, crowdy places aren't your thing?" taehyun asked the older, who's fixing up himself because apparently, the show's about to finish and he's the last student to participate. beomgyu requested to be the last performer for tonight's fair  since he wants it to be more memorable for taehyun (he thinks).

"a certain someone, i think." beomgyu smiled at taehyun, never failing to see those doe eyes from the younger. beomgyu admires taehyun so much, he just wanted this night to end fast and confess to the younger. he just hopes that this will lead to something good.
