"My love for you is on fire. My drummer boy." - Apink (Drummer Boy)

***

"Wah this place is great!" The siblings continued to compliment the restaurant while their mother only looked around the place with a very casual yet formal appearance. This restaurant was really popular among young people and music lovers alike. The place allowed live music to those who signed up and if they were good enough they could become paid clients at some point. But when you played an instrument, sang or even danced you would receive a free small protion sized meal of rice, chicken/steak, and vegetables. 

As they followed the hostess towards the table the family passed a band playing on the stage. Lisa couldn't help but notice how energetic and upbeat they were. Their music seemed to put everyone in a better mood and it even added to the aurora of the restaurant. 

"I believe they're Cnblue." Jaehyuk explained noticing his sisters peaked interest. "I've seen them perform busk events throughout Busan. They're talented." Jaehyuk didn't really work with idol groups or bands, but he did have a hand in some tracks here and there. The only idols he works with continuously are AOA and Monsta X. Most times he worked with Jay Park and other Korean hip hop artist, luckily at the moment he wasn't working with any groups.

The family sat down and was met with a waiter who offered to get them some drinks. Lisa and her mother ordered water while the boys ordered a lemonade. 

"Surprisingly this place has great pasta. I always get the Shrimp Pasta." Jaehyuk attempted to make causal conversation as they all looked through the menu. "That or the spicy chicken noodle soup with rice." 

Lisa hummed a little and occasionally glanced at the band that was still playing some cover songs. Wow, the lead singer is so handsome. Lisa thought finding herself lost in the older males huge smile as he sang. 

"I'm going to get chicken pasta." Lisa heard her mother say after searching the menu. She looked at her daughter and chuckled seeing her gaze was stuck on the guy on stage. "I bet Lisa wants to have some of that guy." 

"Mommmm." Lisa's face turned red when her brothers started to laugh. Rae-Hee let out a sigh and smiled at the group of boys. "I mean he is a very handsome young man. Maybe he can become my new handsome." 

Dabin cringed a little as the waiter returned with their drinks. "Please don't put that image into our head." Rae-Hee reached over and pinched her sons cheek like she usually did when he was near her. 

The next person that was up was announced as a solo drummer that was going to just play a few sets. When the boy stepped ontot he small stage Lisa's heart nearly stopped upon realization that it was Dowoon.

He's going to play a song.

Lisa turned a little and watched as he closed his eyes and began to play. At first it was a little rough, but then she could hear what he was playing. With the melody playing in the background she knew what he was playing. He's playing Hero by Monsta X! 

"Lisa are you okay? You look sick." 

Lisa turned to her family and before she could say anything Dabin but in.

"She's in love with him. He's our neighbor." Dabin turned to look at his brother who looked amused by this newfound knowledge.

"You have a thing for drummers or something?" 

"W-What? No!" Lisa glared at Dabin who was now smirking in her direction. "Dowoon is really sensual and nice." 

"Yeah..nice at ignoring you." 

When Dowoon finished his set he bowed to the crowd and left the stage. Lisa knew that this was her chance to greet Dowoon and compliment his drumming skills. She excused herself to the bathroom and rushed over towards the male as he took something from one of the workers. It looked like a to-go bag.

"D-Dowoon." 

Lisa felt her insides melt and she suddenly felt very self conscious as she stood in front of him. Dowoon was dressed in a very casual attire such as a red shirt, skinny black jeans, a jean jacket , converse and some jewelry. Lisa noticed that his hair was curly and he seemed a lot more relaxed than usual.

"Did you need something?" Dowoon asked, taking out one of his earbuds. Dowoon hadn't expected to see anyone from school here, especially Lisa. 

"I just wanted to tell you that you...you...you...-" Lisa couldn't get her words out and suddenly she felt like he wanted to laugh at her for her lack of words, but instead he smiled warmly at her. Which was a rarity for her so she basked in this feeling. 

"Thank you Lisa." Dowoon knew what she was trying to say and decided to cut her embarrassment short. "Who are you here with? Or are you going to play the flute?" Dowoon laughed a little and despite her confusion Lisa laughed as well.

"N-N-No. My family is here and I..- bathroom." 

Dowoon noticed that Lisa herself wasn't that bad looking. "Um, I'm going to get going. I'll see you tomorrow. Remember to make a list of bands." Dowoon and Lisa parted ways and in the bathroom Lisa couldn't help but stare at herself in the mirror while smiling. 

Back at the table when Lisa arrived Jaehyuk said he ordered her the chicken shrimp pasta for her because he didn't know which one she wanted. Once the food arrived Jaehyuk began to explain why he was back in Seoul.

"I'm taking a big change in my life." Jaehyuk said, "For the last few years I have been studying business and management." 

This was something no one but a few people knew about him doing. Jaehyuk had so much he wanted to accomplish at the end of his life. 

"Business and Management?" Rae-Hee was surprised to hear that her son was studying because from what she knew he partied and was seen around females at Busan night clubs constantly. Never had she seen any article about him studying business and management. "That's really good to hear. What are you planning on to do with it?" 

Jaehyuk looked at his siblings with a huge smile as they ate. "How does CEO Song Jaehyuk sound?" 

"Whaaa? No more Song.J?" Lisa was surprised by her brothers sudden revelation of what he wanted to do. Song J is his current stage name and what he uses when he produces music and promotes different types of his work. 

"And CEO? That will be hard work how do you think you'll get there?" Rae-Hee became hostile upon hearing this eerily similar dream. "You have no aspirations that have ever pointed to this path. If anything Yunho would be the one to become a CEO-"

"Sorry to disappoint you mother. I wish I could be like Yunho, but you're stuck with me. A Seungmin Jr." That was enough for Rae-Hee to excuse herself from the table. Lisa and Dabin had never seen their mother so angry and the name confused them. 

"Whose Seungmin?" Dabin asked their brother who only stared at the empty seat in front of him. 

"He's no one don't worry about it." Jaehyuk decided to try and change the conversation. "But anyways I'm staying at the house for at least two weeks until I can get everything moved up here. I'm going to work for JYP Entertainment for a while until I can finish my business courses." 

Dabin listened to his brother and he felt nothing but admiration towards the male. Despite the obvious divide between him and their family Jaehyuk was still attempting to redeem himself. 

"Ah, JYP? Can you introduce me to Yugyeom?" Lisa may of been a hardcore Moonbebe, but that didn't mean she didn't appreciate and love other groups as well. "Shut up." Jaehyuk laughed at his sisters question and turned to Dabin.

"I'll introduce you to some trainees Dabin!"

"Shut up." Dabin had a deadpan expression and continued eat silently.
