Obsessed [Kyungsoo] for @_THELeiacorn_

Ding Dong. The doorbell rang, interrupting your computer session. Opening the door hurriedly, you looked up at the face of Do Kyungsoo. He was your best friend since childhood and would usually come over to your house at least twice a week. 

"Did you know that Super Junior just won their 6th award for Sorry Sorry? Omo, Ryeowook actually winked at the award ceremony! Eunhyuk and Donghae hugged! My Eunhae feels are exploding! By the way, some of them are starring in a drama but it's yet to be confirmed. Kyahhh~" You screamed, flinging pillows around the living room as Kyungsoo stepped in.

He raised an eyebrow. Though he had gotten used to your usual fangirling over time, he still couldn't believe that you would be crying and smiling at the same time all because of a band. 

"And Big Bang? Don't even get me started on Big Bang! I cried for like, the 15th time watching Haru Haru! Taeyang is too much, seriously! Oh, and Seungri is totally HOT. Don't you think so, Kyungsoo?"

He was happy that you had at least noticed him. However, you were still oblivious to the expression of discontent on his face and were too busy looking at the GIF of Ryeowook winking to even greet your best friend.

"B2ST's making a comeback this J---" Kyungsoo stomped his way over to you, placing a finger roughly over your lips in an attempt to quieten you. Slamming his fist heavily on the nearby coffee table, he yelled, 

"Yah! Your best friend just came over and you're too busy to even greet him! Can't you see how much I care about you...? You've been ranting for over a minute now and I've been just standing here like a donkey!" A tear trickled slowly down his cheek as his eyes were filled with sorrow. You could see that he was very upset and you replied, 

"Sorry, Kyungie-ah. I shouldn't have ignored my best friend just like that. I know you care for me...it's just..." You removed his finger gently, regret enveloping every fiber of your body. 

He sobbed uncontrollably, "_____ ah, you've been obsessed with boybands ever since I can remember. Can't you see, you've got someone here that cares for you so much more than you care for them? I love you, ____ ah! All these years, I've tried to indirectly confess. But you've been shutting me out, all you talk to me about is them! It's hurting my heart, ____. I don't think I can handle this anymore. Gone will be the boy that handed you a hot pack during that winter day. Gone will be the boy that gave you Christmas present after Christmas present."

"After this day, ____, you'll just have to find yourself a new best friend because I know, our friendship will never be the same. I'll simply face the harsh reality of a one-sided love. Saranghae. For the last time, allow me to hug you. And then, it's goodbye."

You were literally collapsed into a heap on the floor, crying for all you were worth. Seeing that you were unwilling to budge from your position, Kyungsoo wrapped his arms around you, giving you the familiar sense of warmth you had received all these years. It would be the last time you would see him, unless he changed his mind. As soon as you were about to hug him back, he released his grip, standing up again. 

"As a farewell, I wish you all the best in your future. Please do not try to call me or text me, treat me as a stranger. Trust me, it's only for the best. Starting from now, 1, 2, 3."

"I-I can't," You choked out the words. He loved you? Unfortunately, you couldn't return his feelings, you just couldn't. He was your best friend, your pillar of support for years. But now, you guessed, the pillar had crumbled.

He was already at the door. Exiting your house, he spoke, "One day, I might be on the stage you see the boybands on. Fangirls will love me, but I only want your love. Unfortunately, that won't happen anytime soon, right? Goodbye, ____." He chuckled mirthlessly before walking away.

He never turned back.

"No," You whispered. "Don't go, Kyungsoo." But it was too late. He had walked out of your life. 

1 year later

"We are One! EXO imnida~" The crowd cheered as they bowed a full 90 degrees. They were on a talkshow for an interview. After the individual introductions, the emcee asked,

"Has anyone ever had bad experiences with love?"

There was a moment of silence before Kyungsoo, or rather, D.O, awkwardly raised his hand. 

"It was only...last year. I was in love with my best friend but she was too caught up with boybands to even care about me. I've never seen her since."

"That's sad," The emcee remarked. "Everyone, give a big 'hwaiting' to D.O ssi!"

"HWAITING~" Waves of fans sympathized with him.

Kilometres away, you sat in front of the TV, tears running into the bag of popcorn you held in your hands. It wasn't the fact that you couldn't love him back, or that he had so many fans and you wouldn't take priority that saddened you.

It was that you would never see him again.

-------------

Is it legal for an author to cry over her own work? Because I really feel sorry for Kyungsoo here. My inspiration for this one shot? Fans. Some of them tend to get crazy sometimes, and I wonder if they take time to catch up with their relatives, maybe go out to eat, or something along those lines. 

So, dear readers, please spend time with your families. Tomorrow is Tao's birthday, and May 6th Baekhyun's, but don't hashtag! Pay respects to the Sewol ferry carrying many students. 

Oh yeah, part of my inspiration is from my own current emotions. Author nim has been feeling really upset lately, possibly because I have lots of Chinese homework. Hwaiting to those who have examinations over the course of the next few weeks. Hwaiting. 

I hope you enjoyed this one shot, and 'beware'! A Lay one to come latest Monday. This one shot has been requested by @_THELeiacorn_. Hope you like it!
