[4] Happy? Birthday

[WONWOO]

<July 17, 2xxx>

I yawned as I sat up from bed. What a good day! I grabbed my phone and checked all the messages, emails and twitter mentions. If you count all of these, it would go to hundreds, or even thousands. If you're wondering what's the occasion, well, it's my birthday!

I smiled as I read some messages that my fans sent me. They are so sweet and I'm so lucky to have them. Some even tweeted me pictures of gifts, cakes and birthday cards. Also, there are cool edits of me here. Aw, this is really sweet. Thanks guys! Wow, I'm really overwhelmed by this.

Hmm, did he send me a birthday message? I searched for his name and message on my phone but I didn't find any. All other member's messages are present though. That's weird, I thought he would know. By 'he', I meant Kim Mingyu. Maybe he would just greet me personally later. Yup, I'm hundred percent sure he will.

The door opened and Seungcheol-hyung's head popped out, "Oh the birthday boy's awake!" He said as he smirked. I smirked back. "Get up from there and get ready. We will go to our schedules and go meet our fans. It's a special day." He winked as I smiled and then he closed the door. Okay, I suppose I should get ready then.

I got ready, went outside of the room and SURPRISE. Oh so this is what the Seungcheol-hyung's wink was all about. I laughed. Jihoon held the cake while the other members popped confetti-s and sang a birthday song. I just grinned as I watched them singing eagerly and having fun. It reminds of little kids going to a friend's birthday party. I was kind of expecting this but still it surprised me as how it's supposed to be. This is like common thing for us (so it's not really a surprise anymore) but it's still special and surprising. All of them are here, except for one. Mingyu's not here. I wonder why. I was kind of hoping for him to greet me personally.

"Soonyoung," I approached Hoshi while we were cleaning up.
"Why?" He asked as he turned his head towards my direction.
"I'm wondering, where's Mingyu?" I asked masking my frustration.
"Ah yeah! He needed to go home for family issues." Family issues? Oh well.
"Hm. Okay." I said with a little hint of disappointment in my voice. "Well, did he say a greeting for me?" I asked hopefully.
He shook his head, "I can't remember him saying any before he left. Maybe he messaged you or something." I checked my phone for his message but I found none. I shook my head.
"No, he didn't. Maybe he forgot or something..." I stated as my voice trailed away.
"Nah, that's impossible. He of all people should know." Hoshi said. I nodded and walked away. Since it's my birthday today, they said that I should just sit around and wait for them to finish. Wahaha. I feel like a prince or something.

I gave a thought about what Hoshi said. It's true that he of all people should know. Yeah, that's right. HE should know but then again, why is he acting like he doesn't know? Is he ignoring my birthday? God, I hope not. I sat down on the sofa and put my phone at the top of the table just in front of me. Maybe he WILL send me a message. All I need to do is wait. I eyed my phone intently for a couple of minutes but sadly no messages from him arrived.

"Wonwoo, let's go." Junghan-hyung gestured me to follow them out. I followed them and then rode the 1st van.

When we arrived at the station, We dismounted from the vans and went inside the building. On the way going inside, the fans were taking pictures and shouting 'Happy Birthday' to me. I waved and smiled at them. I mouthed the words, "See you all later at the fanmeet!"

We were on our way to our dressing room when Coups-hyung suddenly said after he checked his phone, "Mingyu's already there in the dressing room. Let's go." After he said that, I quickened my phase a little bit. I'm excited but I don't want to show it. I reached for the door knob and twisted it to open the door.

There he is, sitting on the chair playing a game on his phone. I calmed myself and approached him.

I tapped him on the shoulder as I said, "Hey."
He looked up at me, nodded and showed a small smile. "Hey." After he said that he put his focus back at the game as if I wasn't even there at the first place.

Wow. What's that supposed to be? Did he really forget?

"Wonwoo-ssi, I heard it's your birthday today. Let's start with you first!" Our make-up/stylist noona said as she approached me. She gestured me to sit down the on the chair and so I did. Everyone knows it's my birthday today but why doesn't he know? Did I do something?

We cleared all of our schedules and proceeded to our fan meeting. Well, you see I'm still hoping that he would greet me. I'm kind of disappointed since the day is almost over.

Fans sang a birthday song for me and gave me lots of gifts. Everything's almost perfect. ALMOST.

"Hyung-ah. I really need to go. Urgent." I heard Mingyu talk to Doogi-PD. He waved to our fans and went out of the hall with one of our managers.

Now, I'm angry. URGENT. WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT. I went near Doogi-PD and asked him where Mingyu went. He said that it was family matter. I'm okay with that but can't he just freaking greet me and tell me what's going on! Inhale. Exhale. Okay. I'm good.

The fan meeting is over and we rode the vans. I got gloomy for the rest of the ride and the other members maybe noticed it and so they remained silent. They know me well. When I say "they," i meant just 11 members. Not counting myself and that one member who forgot my birthday. I'm not bitter or anything, i'm just disappointed.

I was about to dismount the van when Dino suddenly pulled me in and the other members grabbed my arms. I tried to get free but it's was 5 versus 1. That's hard, man. Jisoo-hyung blindfolded me.

"Wait. What the f are you guys doing?" I asked pretty pissed off. "I'm not in the mood for this." I said seriously to warn them.
"Oh just shut the freak up Jeon Wonwoo. We all know you want this." Seungcheol hyung said as he chuckled.

They dragged me out and lead me to somewhere. Inside the dorm maybe. When we were inside the dorm, they removed my blindfold. It's really dark and I can't see anything. I don't see the reason why they needed to put a blindfold on me or something. Are they idiots?

Anyways, candle lights started glowing on the corners of the room. And little by little, I see balloons scattered on the floor. Floating balloons filling the room. My derp pictures fastened on each balloon. And one guy standing at the center of the room wearing his ever beautiful smile. Wow, thanks. I smiled as I felt the wave of sincerity wash over me.

"Hey." Mingyu said as he walked towards me. I smiled as the feeling of frustration, anger, and disappointment left me. I smiled as if I was never angry. Only he can do this.
"Hey."
"Happy birthday"
"I thought you forgot."
"How the hell can I forget?" He said as he smirked and pulled me in for a hug.
