(Y/N) was sitting in her couch with headphones on while listening to Oldcodex songs from both their new album and some of the past. There was this particular song that caught her attention and that she found herself now listening to for the third time. It was called 'Never Ending'.

(A/N: Rough translation of the song from google translate, couldn't find the english lyrics anywhere -_- I almost drove myself insane trying to make sence of this one part )

♪I can't help but being bored
The bare scratched chest is healed immedietly. The end that can not be seen no matter how close it is 
It also feels good♪

She thought about the lyrics to the song. There was a mixture of pain and carefreeness.
But she also felt like she could relate to the song. Well, mostly because she's an immortal she would interpret the song as a frustration to the boredom and pain you experience as one.
But this wasn't written by an immortal. She chuckled to herself and wrote down her comments on the song.

She finished listening to the songs, collected her notes and put them in her bag before turning on the tv to watch Oldcodex's first major tv-interview.

(Y/N) watched the men answering the questions and nodded to herself in agreement.
They were doing good considering they've only done smaller interviews in the past.

"Okay! One last question for Ban."

"Shoot" Ban said.

"This girl you're looking for. If she was watching this right now, what would you say?"

He looked straight at the camera.
"Kitten, if you're seeing this. I will find you. Brace yourself" He winked at the camera.

Everyone in the audience awed and squealed as the band members exited the stage.

(Y/N) touched her face to realize there were tears running down her cheeks.

"Must be allergies" She said while quickly wiping her cheeks.

A few months went by and (Y/N) helped out as much as she could from a distance while working on her own things. She never had time meeting the band but she would mail or call them with new suggestions and they could always reach her when they needed advice.

She sat in her hotel room in front of her laptop in her bathrobe and slippers while drinking as it was her first night off in forever. She was currently on book tour in America and the day after tomorrow would be her last day there and on tour before she goes back to Tokyo.

She put her beer down when she heard her phone buzzing and looked at a text from Ban.
Their manager had given him her personal phone number and he would usually drunk text her at night. She didn't pay much attention to it since she needed her clients in a good mood.

"Hiiiii (Y/N) (─‿‿─)♡"

"Have you been drinking again? 
You guys have a performance tomorrow. "

"It's fiiine (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ"

"Go to sleep Ban"

"( ̄。 ̄)~zzz"

"I mean actually go to sleep."

" Boo (  ̄ε ̄)"

"Let me guess, you just discovered those emoticons?"
