midnight waters ➣ taehyun

l

a week after the get together, amerikas and winner were both invited to participate on weekly idol together. sooner or later, the two groups began to do many activities together, including variety shows, concerts, and filming. 

one day, lia found herself knocking on taehyun's front door. it was the first day in a while that the two groups have had a day off, so she took the opportunity to bolt and head over to hanam. 

"lia," taehyun greeted her at the door. he pulled her straight into a hug. 

"hi taehyun," she said, grasping him back. 

the two of them shared many stories together about the two groups. taehyun shared old memories of when he was a part of winner, while lia kept him updated with new stories and events.

"then yoonie screeched like a little girl. can you believe this leader?" lia asked while laughing.

"yes!" taehyun replied, giggling along as well. 

lia noticed the winner bear in the corner. she leapt onto his bed and hugged the blue bear tightly. "mm, do you ever miss being on the scene sometimes?" she asked gently. 

taehyun hugged both lia and the bear. "sometimes, yeah. they like sending me updates every now and then, and i do the same. we're still very close friends." 

"when was the last time you came over to seoul?" lia asked, struggling to remember. 

"last month," taehyun reminded her. "it wasn't to see them, but for a dj event for a festival."

lia tilted her head. "what were we doing then?" taehyun shrugged, unsure of what amerikas or winner had been doing at the time. "we could have made time to see you." 

taehyun waved it off. "it's okay. it was an enjoyable festival. some inner circles came to support me and left some messages and gifts." 

lia smiled. "i'm glad you have such loyal fans."

taehyun returned the smile. "me too, lia."

shit ending  but as you can tell, taehyun never returned to the idol industry. honestly, this book got so far off my original intentions and i'm laughing because of it. i hope you guys don't mind if i go back in this later to edit every single part of it so that it makes more sense and doesn't sound like a mess.

again, please give your support for what taehyun has chosen to do. i have come to terms with it, and after seeing his beautiful and super cute face smile once more with ease, i know that he has made a good decision. please continue to love him.
