She's my Beautiful Black Pearl (Luhan x Reader)

Chapter 2 - Cherry Lipgloss

HI GUYS IM BACK <3 I'm so sorry this took me so long. I almost kind of forgot about this and didn't expect anyone to actually be waiting for an update XD but it makes me so happy to know people actually like this! Anyways, part 2 (is rather short) but is done and I figured I'd better get it up as soon as possible. It is quite cute though, so maybe it was worth the wait...I hope I can update more frequently, now knowing people are actually reading this c: enjoy guys!

After collecting myself (or at least trying to), I walked into the glorious building and gawked at the multiple posters that displayed many kpop groups signed under SM. Who would've known they were operating so largely like this here in Canada?

The lady at the front reception desk quickly took notice of my presence and escorted me to the audition waiting room.

My anxiousness must have been quite evident, as before she left, she placed a hand on my shoulder and said, "just take a deep breath. You'll do great sweetie."

I smiled at her words and tried to take her advice.

It felt like I was sitting in that room for hours waiting -- though it had only been a few minutes. I pulled out a small container of cherry pink lipgloss, it was my favourite and I always used it for good luck. After applying it, I felt slightly more confident, as weird as that might sound.

Finally, a short, slender woman opened the door and directed me to what I assume was the audition stage.

"It's right through here, you can head up and stand in front of the mic. Just wait for further instruction." She said, her voice emotionless. I slowly crept up the stairs, hearing the click-clack of the woman's high heels as she walked further away from where I was left.

The hallway up to the stage was dark, I could hardly see where I was even going.

I was feeling around in front of me with my arms to get an idea of where to go. Who designed this hall? Quite stupid if you ask me.

Next thing I knew, I bumped directly into someone. However, this wasn't any regular collision.

A warm pair of lips were on mine -- and before I could even comprehend that this was happening, the other person quickly pulled away. "S-so sorry!" He said before shuffling back from the direction he came from, the same direction I was heading.

Who was that? His voice sounded...familiar.

More importantly, did I just kiss him?!

I scratched the back of my head, my cheeks burning red and my lips still feeling the sensation from the mysterious boy's.

W-was that...Luhan? No way...it couldn't have been.

I shook my head, and decided this wasn't the time to be distracted. Finally seeing some light at the end of the dark hallway, I ran towards it and found myself on a huge, bright white stage. Upon it was a single mic, and nothing else. As I walked towards it, I saw the judges panel down below the stage.

But, something wasn't right.

There were 12 judges..not 3 like there usually are.

Those 12 judges...were none other than the boys of EXO.

I gulped and immediately my eyes found Luhan, sitting in his chair, avoiding my gaze.

Luhan seemed rather...dazed.

He quickly peered over, not expecting me to still be staring, and our eyes met.

That's when I saw, Luhan's face was bright red, and I could see the faint pink from my lipgloss upon his own lips.
