Man in Dreams

In the Presence of Stars

"Hobi, wake up! It's time. We need to leave for your audition in an hour," Maya urged with a sense of urgency in her voice.

"Wow, thanks, Maya. I'll be ready in 15 minutes," Hobi replied, swiftly throwing off the covers and jumping out of bed.

After receiving blessings from their parents, Hobi and Maya headed excitedly to the audition venue, their hearts pounding with anticipation.

Upon completing registration with the volunteers, they were directed to the audition zone. Hobi's excitement was palpable, but Maya couldn't shake off her nerves, her hands slightly trembling as they waited.

As they stood together, Hobi held Maya's hand, offering reassurance as he noticed her fingers were colder than his own. "You've got this. You can do it. You're my boy," Maya whispered with a smile, her eyes filled with unwavering support.

Hobi successfully cleared all audition rounds, his heart racing with each step closer to realizing his dream. While Maya, already planning celebrations in her mind, heard the familiar sound of footsteps approaching from behind.

Hobi, sensing Maya's excitement building, gently held her back to keep her from panicking as he recognized her idol's arrival.

"Oh my God! It's RM, V, JK, Jin 😍😍😍," Maya exclaimed, her joy and admiration overflowing. And then she saw him – Suga, standing there with a presence that took her breath away 💘💘💘.

Suga, usually composed and reserved, felt a rush of emotions as he laid eyes on Maya for the first time in person. Her presence seemed surreal, like a dream he had never expected to come true. He couldn't deny the flutter in his heart or the way his gaze naturally gravitated towards her.

"Keep it together if you want to come back," Hobi teased Maya playfully, noticing her excitement.

"Of course, I will! I'm practically going to live here now that you're part of the team," Maya laughed, her voice filled with happiness and awe.

"Hi Hobi and Jimin, welcome to our team. We're thrilled to have you both," the team greeted them warmly, bringing Maya back to the present moment with a mix of emotions swirling inside her.

With tears of joy welling up, Maya watched proudly as Hobi stood among the team members, realizing how far he had come and how bright his future looked.

Then, unexpectedly, a voice from behind asked, "Are you okay?" Startled, Maya turned to see Suga standing there, waiting for her response. Their eyes locked, and in that moment, Maya felt a connection that transcended her wildest dreams. She couldn't help but smile, her heart racing as she wondered if he was truly the man from her dreams.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Maya. I'm a huge fan of you all. Please take care of Hobi; he's incredibly passionate. Help him shine," Maya said with genuine sincerity, trying to compose herself in front of her idol.

"Of course, he will shine," V assured her, his voice filled with warmth and reassurance. Suga nodded silently, his gaze fixed on Maya, his thoughts racing. "Is it really her? I can't believe I'm meeting Maya from my dreams," he thought to himself, struggling to hide a smile as he realized her name.

"Hey guys, tonight we're throwing a welcome party for you. Please join us, and our team will arrange your accommodations," Namjoon announced, breaking the moment of silent connection between Maya and Suga.

Overwhelmed with happiness for Hobi, Maya hugged him tightly, whispering, "I'm so proud of you, my boy." Hobi returned the embrace, holding her as if she were his anchor in this whirlwind of new experiences.

She waved goodbye to Hobi and bowed to the other members, her smile wide as she left the venue, her mind still reeling from the encounter with Suga.

Later, as they settled into their new surroundings, JK casually asked Hobi if Maya was his girlfriend, prompting laughter from Hobi at the thought.

"She's my best friend and practically family. We've been together since childhood," Hobi explained warmly, feeling grateful for Maya's unwavering support.

JK teased him further, "Ah, your childhood sweetheart?"

Hobi smiled, contemplating the close bond he shared with Maya and how it shaped his journey so far.

Meanwhile, Suga couldn't shake off the curiosity about Maya, but he held back from asking too much on their first meeting. Instead, he focused on getting to know Hobi better, subtly observing Maya from a distance.

Later that evening, as they explored their new accommodations and bonded over shared passions, Hobi shared photos with Maya, reminding her not to share them with anyone until they officially debuted.

Maya promised, "I won't share them. I miss you, Hobi. Keep shining, my Sunshine."

Hobi cherished Maya's understanding and support, knowing she was the one person who truly understood him inside and out.

JK and V teased Hobi after reading his message. "Oh, my Sunshine, and you say she's not your girlfriend?" they joked, earning a sheepish smile from Hobi.

"She already has someone and it's not me" Hobi said sipping his wine

Suga, caught off guard by the mention of Maya's boyfriend, couldn't help but ask, "Wait, she has a boyfriend? Who is he?" His curiosity piqued, he awaited their response with genuine interest.

The others burst into laughter at Suga's sudden curiosity, amused by his reaction.

Hobi, momentarily forgetting that Suga was Maya's dream boyfriend, wondered how he would navigate this newfound dynamic. Sensing Suga's anticipation, Hobi explained, "She's an ARMY girl, so we're all her dream boyfriends," subtly deflecting the attention away from Suga.

As they settled into their roles within the team, the members felt deeply touched and grateful for the love and support they received from their ARMY fans, realizing how much their music meant to their dedicated followers.
