Taehyung moved swiftly in the direction of the stadium. Since Jimin took so long to finish his shopping, he was already running behind schedule, and Taehyung would probably murder him if he missed the concert. After all, he was attending the concert of his favourite singer. Dream's live performances were rare. He hadn't visited Malta in three years, so he didn't want to miss this opportunity. Thankfully, he makes it just in time and finds a seat. This time, a sizable crowd attended. It seems like finally, people are able to look past Dream's sexuality and appreciate his true talent. Taehyung scoffs internally. Dream was an openly gay person, just like Taehyung himself. So he got a lot of criticism and hatred from homophobic people who looked down on him, but that never stopped the guy. He's positively living his life the way he wants, creating absolutely breath-taking musical pieces. Taehyung was proud of his idol.

Being gay, he knows how things are back in their country; they aren't really welcoming to people like them. And maybe that's why Taehyung decided to settle in Malta now. He likes the country, especially the area he lives in, because the people are really warm and welcoming here. Not judgmental and nosy, and the 27-year-old florist loved his life in Malta. Taehyung's parents and siblings, on the other hand, accept him for who he is. They pay frequent visits to Taehyung in Malta, especially his mother, who always brings a whole bag of Korean side dishes and fills his entire fridge with them, complaining about how frail he appears. Taehyung smiles fondly, remembering his mother's nagging. 

Dream's melodic voice fills the stadium as the concert begins. Taehyung closed his eyes and waved his hands in time with the beat. Many people were doing the same thing. Taehyung's face brightened as the sixth song began to play. Dreamglow was a very underrated song by Dream, and many of his new fans were unaware of the song, which was one of his first. They have no sense of taste. Taehyung sighs and rolls his eyes. And, as he expected, the audience was relatively quiet as he began the lyrics. Taehyung, on the other hand, didn't care and began singing along with Dream.

A minute later, he realizes he is not alone, and there is a voice very near him singing the same lyrics. He quickly turned around and noticed a young guy, okay, specifically an (extremely) handsome guy—besides him, who was also surprised to see Taehyung. Taehyung was never the type to be instantly swayed by someone. In fact, his friends say he's really hard to impress and never really cares about impressing others, too. However, they might have to rethink about it now because Taehyung found himself staring ( read drooling) at the guy, who also kind of curiously looked back. He was comparable in height to him, perhaps a few centimetres shorter, but muscular than him. The black turtleneck accentuated his chest and draped over his body like a second skin. The black slacks, which are tailored for his narrow waist, clung to his broad thighs. His hair was ash blonde. His face had the features of a finely carved statue of a Greek god, with angular brows, pointed jaws, full pink lips, a tiny mole down the centre of his lower lip, and a lovely button nose. His lower lip, brows, and ears were all pierced. He likely has a tattoo on his neck based on the black ink that protruded through the neck. It took Taehyung, well, 5 minutes to stop staring, and he cleared his throat, feeling his cheeks flushed.

"You know dream glow? I never really thought I would meet someone who knew Dreamglow," he says. Taehyung's eyes twinkle with excitement at the mention of it.

"Yes, I love that song; it's actually my favorite of his. I also never thought I would find someone who knows the song; it's cool," he says excitedly. The stranger smiles at Taehyung's enthusiasm, extending his arms, "I am Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook. Nice to meet you."
