Beomgyu stood in the middle of the densely packed crowd, the subdued lighting of the concert hall bathing the scene in a pulsating play of colors. The air was filled with a mixture of sweat, excitement and the sweet scents of the many perfumes. Cheering fans were all around him, throwing their hands in the air and singing along to the lyrics of the previous songs.
Yeonjun stood on the stage.
Framed by spotlights that made his appearance seem even more glamorous.
His voice emanated powerfully from the speakers, accompanied by the electrifying sounds of the band. The crowd seemed to be in a frenzy, every single spectator mesmerized by the charismatic singer's presence.
Sweat clung to his forehead, he ran his hand through his hair and breathed heavily after finishing his third song.
Beomgyu felt the vibration of the music through his entire body. The intense sounds filled the hall and merged with the heartbeat of the crowd. When Yeonjun took a short break, Beomgyu took the opportunity to push himself closer to the stage. He wanted to look into the eyes of the man to whom he had so many unresolved feelings. But he knew that it was almost impossible to stand out in the crowd.
The stage was bathed in a soft light as Yeonjun stood in front of the roaring audience. His microphone was at the ready as he addressed the crowd, who listened spellbound to his words. His voice was warm and inviting as he began to speak. "Hey, everyone!" he called out, his smile beaming across the audience. "It's great to be here with you, it really is. You guys are so incredible. Thank you for being here and making this night special."
An enthusiastic roar filled the room as the fans showed their love and support for him.
Yeonjun paused for a moment before continuing, "I'd like to take a moment to apologize... for everything that's happened recently. It was not my intention to upset or disappoint you. I am grateful for your patience and your love, and I promise that I will do my best to make you proud." With a final smile, he gestured to the audience to wait a moment, then ran to his equipment to grab the guitar. Some stage staff also brought a chair, which they placed in front of the microphone.
Yeonjun rushed back, sat down on the chair offered to him, positioned his guitar on his lap and brought the microphone stand closer.
"I have a new song for you," he announced, his heart full of excitement. "It's something I wrote while I was on tour and I'd like to share it with you."
Beomgyu felt the energy of the audience around him as he continued to stare mesmerized at Yeonjun. The singer beamed in front of the crowd and it was as if he was connecting with his fans with every word he spoke. As Yeonjun began to play soft notes on the guitar, Beomgyu closed his eyes and let himself be carried away by the sounds. The music absorbed him and he felt all his worries and doubts fade a little more into the background with every note.
«In the neon-lit city's glow,
Where our paths began to flow,
After a taxi ride, our hearts unwise,
We found solace in each other's eyes.
In your arms, I found my truth,
In your love, I found my youth.»
The music enveloped Beomgyu like a familiar blanket. He recognized the words of the song, which seemed like a dialogue between their souls. The lyrics seemed to reflect his own unspoken thoughts. The song caressed him like Yeonjun's warm fingers on his skin. Caressing him like the togetherness they had had.
«Our first meeting was a blur,
In that moment, we were sure,
Because I was drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
With you.»
When Beomgyu opened his eyes, a work of art was revealed to him. Yeonjun's silhouette was emphasized by the glistening light of the spotlight, his voice had a special tone and the fingers playing the guitar danced across the strings. It was an image that the young actor would probably never forget.
A feeling that he could only feel through Yeonjun.
«As the moonlight kissed our skin,
We let our passion win,
Through the highs and through the lows,
Our love only grows and grows.
In your embrace, I found my peace,
In your love, all worries ceased.»
The melody was gentle and stirring at the same time, and the fans were enchanted by the music while Yeonjun put his heart into every word. With their smartphones and lighters, they created a light show whose beauty only the artists on stage knew.
«Our first meeting was a haze,
Lost in love's sweet maze,
Because I was drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
With you.»
Beomgyu's heart was beating to the beat, his eyes had long since filled with tears and as he tried to listen to the voice, several situations came to his mind. He remembered how he had rested his cheek against Yeonjun's shoulder in the cab. How he had looked at him and kissed him.
How tender that kiss had felt.
He remembered how they had stumbled into his apartment, dazed by alcohol and unable to resist each other. The memories of the touches, the sweet words and the comfort came flooding back, giving Beomgyu a warm feeling in his chest. He remembered the night together and especially that he had enjoyed every single second of it.
«Through every trial, every test,
Our love stood the ultimate quest,
In your arms, I found my home,
In your love, I'll always roam.
Our first meeting was a dance,
A serendipitous romance,
Because I was drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
Drunk in love,
With you.»
The song was noticeably coming to an end, the spotlight was changing colors.
«In the symphony of our souls,
We found our star-crossed melodies untold,
In the rhythm of our hearts,
We found our love's sweet arts.»
And when Yeonjun stroked his fingers over the strings one last time, a tear rolled down Beomgyu's cheek.
