[COMPLETED] the first ; 첫 (SVT Vernon X Reader)

1: Can we exchange seats?

"Mom! I'll be going now!" You shouted at your mother as you put your shoes on by the doorway. She's in the kitchen, cooking your supposed to be lunch.
"Your flight's still six hours away! Won't you stay for some lunch?" You watched as your mom approached you, apron and all.
"Mom. You know that-"
"You don't like being late, that the traffic in the city's a bitch, that really, you're not hungry at all. Yes. Yes, I know."
Smiling at her, you said, "You're the best."
"But you should eat."
"Mommy."
"Fine. It was worth a try. But I'll tell Joon."
"Okay~ Do that~"
You slung your backpack across your back, dragging your suitcase along to the door. Your brother's gonna be here any minute now.
"Wow. So many years and now, you're on your first solo flight. It feels like I was just changing your diapers days ago."
You smiled at your mom, fixing her hair behind her ears. "Mom, I'm just gonna take a vacay. Three months is a short time."
"Says the girl who gets homesick at work."
This made you laugh. "Because I travel a lot! Anyways, I'm not getting married. No need to be suddenly nostalgic."
"I know. You'll take care of yourself, right?"
"Yes. I'll come back to you in perfect condition. Promise."
She hugged you, and you hugged her back. "You're even taller than I am now. Happy birthday, baby."
"Thanks, Mom."
Minutes later, your brother arrived. "Hey, lil' sis. Ya' ready?" You kissed your mom one last time, before hopping in the car.
"Yes, Brodear. Let's go!~♡"

The two of you went on a half-hour drive to the airport. Your brother accompanied you at the airport for another half-hour, until your secretary called him.
"Was that Rachel?"
"Yes."
"What is it this time?"
"Signing some papers for that deal. We got it, by the way."
"The Haohui deal? Really? Wow. Congratulations!" You held out a hand to your brother, which he accepted happily.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, Mr. CEO."
The two of you laughed. Every time you visit your brother at work, your family company's employees started wondering who you were, because your brother were treating you like you were some kind of princess from a far away country.

"You know what, I don't think I'll ever like my secretary. Why was it you who hired her again?"
"Uhm, because you do not really work at the company? Come on, Sis. When will you come back? I miss seeing you in my office."
"I love writing my books, Brodear. Besides, you only miss me because I bring you coffee everyday."
"And that."
"Yoy know what? Maybe I should fire her now before my cup runs over her. She's my secretary, anyway."
Your brother just glared at you. "No. There you go again. Stop being so brutal, Y/N. This is why people don't believe we're siblings. If not for our stunning looks-"
"Aish, jinjja. It's suddenly windy here," you joked, mock-hugging yourself, feigning feeling cold. He just laughed.
"I have to go now, Y/N. You know you don't have to worry right?"
You just sighed. "I know. You're the best CEO in the world. I'll try my best not to worry."
"Hey. Take care of yourself, you understand? I won't be there to tell you to eat your meals and sleep on time. I'm giving you my full trust right now, Y/N."
"Yes, Brother dear. I'll do you proud, I promise. I'll survive three months in Korea, healthy and happy." You told him, giving him your best smile.
"You better. Come here," he opened his arms and you instinctively ran into them. You won't be getting his hugs for three months, so you hugged him really tight. You just hope it'll be enough.
"Happy birthday, Sis. I love you, feel that always."
"I love you, too, Brodear. Know that always."
"You know you can call me anytime, right?"
"Of course."

You eventually waved each other goodbye. You still have five hours to wait so you decided to pass time by going through your playlists. However, you finally felt hunger, three hours away from your flight. You got up and went to the nearest convenience store.

You were on the line to pay for your food when you saw a little kid running towards you. You foresaw that he wouldn't be able to stop himself any time soon, so you put down your juice boxes and kneeled down, catching him in your arms before he bump himself somewhere he'll get hurt. The kid was a bit heavy, so you ended up sitting on the floor.
You were able to stop the little boy from getting hurt, but you weren't able to stop yourself from getting hurt. Not that it actually hurt. When you caught the boy, you bumped into the man in front of you, and boxes of Twix fell on your head. You immediately shielded the boy's head.
"Aigoo."
That's a lot of Twix.

You quickly checked the little boy, examining him for bruises. "Hey, baby, are you okay? Nothing hurts?" You asked him. He just shook his head at you, and your heart melted at his big, two-toothed smile. "Oh, thank God." You helped him get up, before doing the same thing yourself. Your heart jumped off your chest when the boy held onto your hand. So cute. ㅠㅅㅠ

You saw a middle-aged lady approach you. "Nathan!" The boy instinctively ran to her, and you were slightly worried he won't be able to stop again. Your worries disappeared when the boy hugged the woman, who carried him then.
"Did my son bother you? I apologize," the woman talked to you. You immediately shook your head.
"No, no. It's okay," you turned to the boy, "Be careful next time, okay, Nathan?" The little boy smiled at you again. You softly pinched his cheeks. FLUFFY!~♡

The woman and the little boy waved you thanks and goodbye. When they got out of the store, you immediately turned to the man in front of you, bowing low. He's Korean, if what you heard him say was right.
"Oh-ohmo-" Yup. Definitely Korean.
"Joesonghamnida, ahjussi."
"Ahjussi?!"
"Ne." You looked up, and got startled when you saw him looking straight at you with big, brown eyes. He's... almost your age. Not an ahjussi. "M-mianhamnida." You said again, your head low.
Did you really just see... no. Impossible.

You waited for your turn and immediately got out of the shop after paying. You have to keep an empty stomach, because you'll eat a lot of ramyeon when you touch down!~♡
You got back to where you were sitting, but somebody else was already occupying it. You decided to just drop yourself on the edge of the row, two seats away. You happily sipped on your juice boxes. Banana is life!~♡

Hours and playlists later, your flight was called. You looked for your seat on the plane, and was surprised to see that another person was already there. Again. Why do people like occupying your seats? "Excuse me? Is this Seat ***?"
Isn't this the same person whom you bumped earlier in the convenience store? What a coincidence. The man was wearing a facemask, so you didn't hear his response clearly.
"I'm sorry, I don't understand. Please take off your face mask...?" You suggested. You were trying to keep calm, because you really wanna sleep now, but this man is wasting your time.

The man did as you said, but you were not prepared for what happened next.
You're seeing things. People.
That man on your seat cannot... no. "I'm sorry. Can we exchange seats for a few hours? I really just wanna sit by the window."
Is that even allowed?
You saw an attendant walk towards your direction, and you saw the man immediately wear his big headphones and fake sleep. Wow.
"Is there a problem here, ma'am?" The attendant asked you. You just pointed at the man and told the attendant, "That's my seat. I- I don't know how to wake him up."
Hearing your explanation, the attendant immediately turned to the man, 'waking' him up. "Sir? Sir, I apologize for interrupting your sleep, but you seem to be on the wrong seat. Please move to the proper one."
"Jinjja?" You watched as he hastily rolled his sleeves, checking his arm for... his seat number written on his skin with a blue marker. Double wow. "Oh, ne. Mianhaeyo." He quickly got up, moving to the seat beside yours. "I was confused, I apologize."
"Thank you, sir. Have a good flight, ma'am, sir. And, happy birthday, ma'am." You were surprised when the attendant greeted you.
"T-Thank you." You dropped down your seat and immediately put your phone on airplane mode. You plugged in your earphones again, trying to finish another playlist. Maybe you can play all 684 songs before the flight ends. Just maybe.

You have just closed your eyes when the man poked your cheek.
"Hi. Happy birthday. :) I'm Hansol. What's your name?"
You gulped. You were not seeing Hansol. This can't be... Hansol. This can't be Vernon. Impossible.
You still weren't opening your eyes, scared of seeing things again. Maybe you should have stayed for lunch. You're too hungry that you ended up hallucinating.
"Oh? You're asleep already? That's sad." He can't be Hansol. He's the shyest member! He wouldn't be this talkative. Not to a stranger.
You almost flinched but managed to lay still when he pulled one of your earphones slowly. OH MY GOD-
"Oh-ohmo! This song- you're a Carat!" You tried hard not to move, even if you're so close to trembling now.

This man beside you is the Hansol Vernon Choi.

How even?
