H O S E O K

The sweet taste of the lollipop we shared. I remember your wide smile when you took the first lick. Overjoyed by the sugary flavor overloading your small tastebuds. I'd do anything to capture that smile of yours. It made me happy seeing you like that. From then on I knew that if there were anything I'd share, it'd be with you.

"Mom, I'm going out." I spoke as I put my jacket on. It was a bit of a breeze despite it being the middle of summer. I tend to get cold no matter the power of the wind gust. I bent down from the coat rack to begin putting on my shoes, just a simple black and white pair of Vans. Nothing too flashy.

"Where to?" My mother inquired in a droning voice, like she already knew where I was sneaking off to. I hate how my mother could guess anything about me. Rather it be a crush, where I'm going, whether I'm lying or not. It freaked me out. Like she knew a bit too much. Made me think she watched me while I was unaware.

"The candy store." I couldn't lie. I could hear a loud sigh come from her room. It was really loud hence I was all the way downstairs at the front door. I rolled my eyes and settled them back on the stairs. Why'd she have to be like this? I was just going to the candy store. To buy some candy. Not like I was stalking some guy.

"Didn't I tell you that that guy doesn't remember you? Stop stalking him Hoseok!" Okay maybe I lied a little. Okay a lot, I lied a lot. I've been on the hunt for over 10 years trying to find this one guy. A guy that I shared a lollipop with when I was 8. Yeah I know it sounds a bit crazy but I need to find him. It's just something about him that I couldn't seem to forget. I want to see him again. I wanna know if he remembers me.

"Mom, I don't stalk him, I just want see him again." I whispered the last part. I haven't really told her about why I've been doing this. I feel like she shouldn't know. It's nothing she needs to stick her nose into. It's just when I think about him or the lollipop guy as I call him, I feel like I'm missing something. Nothing can fill this empty spot in my head. I've just admitted it and now I have to find him or I'll go crazy.

With that my mom didn't answer back and I took that as the cue to leave. I opened the door slowly and let the breeze kiss my face before walking out completely, closing the door behind me. The candy store wasn't too far, only a few blocks away. I began skipping to my destination, greeting everyone I knew in the neighborhood as I passed them. I felt like I had luck today. Something in my being said so. I believe it.

Through many twists and turns I had finally made it to Kim Kandy. The candy store I've been going to since I was a smol bean. I grinned before swinging open the door and groaning from how good the breeze from the air conditioner felt on my skin. I trotted in the store studying the floors, I called it the strawberry swirl floors. It was a swirly mixture of pink, red, and white.

Reminded me of his eyes. The way they sparkled when he studied the bright colors. Despite his eyes being small and slanted, they held the whole universe. Like if I were to look any longer I'd get lost in them. I wondered if he ever changed from ten years ago. And would I ever find him? All these questions swirled in my head, almost making a headache creep up until a tall young man began talking to me.

"Hey Hoe!" He yelled across the store. I rolled my eyes, mentally face palming. Every customer with little kids glared at me. It was Chanyeol. And he dyed his hair yet again. It went from a white silver type thing to a dark blood red. The only thing intimidating about him was his height. The rest was just foolishness.

"Stop calling me that." I muttered walking to the counter, looking at some candy behind Chanyeol. There were many new types. Candies with bugs in them, even candy shaped like animals. There were also some candies from overseas. I combed my fingers through my brown hair as tall, and I might I add dumbass, giant began speaking again.

"You looking for your dream man, the one with the beautiful slanted eyes?" Chanyeol asked as he scanned some child's Airheads and thanked them for their purchase at Kim Kandy. He looked back to me waiting for my answer. Of course he had to pull the cat out of the bag. I silently cursed myself for being an open book but quickly answered with a strained "yeah".

"Okay but my manager says you can't stay for hours on end without buying anything, or you'll get kicked out." Chanyeol frowned as he bent down and sat his head on his elbows. Chen, Chanyeol's manager was just a jerk. He's always bothering someone for no reason. I nodded to show I understood and walked over to a shelf with a board that read 'Loco Lollipops'.

I smiled as I picked the last red, white, and blue lollipop there was. They were called rockets. They were my favorite. Each swirl of a different color promised to taste differently and better than the last. I just wished I had someone to share it with. Preferably the lollipop guy. This was the exact lollipop we shared. The sweet memory made me blush uncontrollably not even noticing the grey haired man coming up behind me.

"Dang it, that's the last rocket." The man who was shorter than me pouted. I couldn't deny, it was really cute. His slightly red cheeks puffing out as he did so. His eyes were slightly slanted. A familiar feeling washed over me but I wiped it away. It couldn't be him. I just stared for a couple of seconds before finally getting my head out of my ass.

"You wanna share, I don't mind it." I felt kind of bad for his situation. It couldn't be bad to offer to share it. The man smiled mumbling a small 'thanks' and I proceeded to the counter to pay for the treat.

"No, let me pay." The grey haired male protested but I just shook him off giving my money to Chanyeol and bowing before skipping to a bench in the store and sitting down. The shorter male followed suit, taking a seat next to me. We stayed in silence for awhile as I tried breaking the lollipop in half to no avail. I didn't mind us eating off the same thing but that kind of weird to do that with a stranger.

"No it's fine, we can lick on opposite sides." I agreed with his suggestion, giving him the lollipop first out of hospitality. He grabbed the lollipop from my hands, his soft flesh brushing against mine. I wouldn't mind holding his hand. He took the first look, his eyes widening once the flavor burst onto his tastebuds. Those eyes. That smile. I know it all too well.

"I know this might sound crazy but 10 years ago I shared a lollipop with a boy, who looked quite like you. It was the same one we're eating right now. I've been trying to find him ever since." I finished off with my tiny story, looking at the stranger in the eyes. He smiled and began to giggle.

"I remember you. Your smile." He made a gesture, making a big gap between his hands and smiling really big. This was him. Nothing's changed. Those same sparkling eyes and excited smiles. I've finally found him. "I've finally found you."
He had been looking for me too? The grey haired male embraced me in a bear hug as I laughed uncontrollably. It's him.

He settled down just holding my hand in his pale one. I studied our hands laced together and grinned. It was really him. Just then I felt lips on my cheek and I turned to see a widely grinning and blushing boy. I giggled and pinched his cheek.

Was it possible to fall in love with someone you barely even knew?

"What do you say we ditch this place? There's a place I've been dying to try, and what better way to do it than with you?" I asked as I got up, pulling the male up along with me by our intertwined fingers. He nodded eagerly as I pulled him to the exit. I bid Chanyeol good bye and left with him hand in hand.

"In the midst of us finding each other we never got to names, I'm Min Yoongi." Yoongi shook my hand but who needed that when he kissed me already? I just nodded and introduced myself.

"I'm Jung Hoseok. Nice to meet you, again." We both began laughing like maniacs. Time seemed to stop when we laughed. Seemed like nothing could break what we had. Even though we barely knew each other, we somewhat had a strong feeling toward the other.

"Such a nice name for a nice guy." Yoongi winked and ruffled my hair in the process. I began whining while he just kept giggling like it was funny.

I think it is possible to fall in love with a complete stranger.
