Quick Author's Note: This is for readers old and new. Yes, I unpublished all of my previous works including Last (my most known story).
My former writings were a cringe fest. There were so many flaws but I had a handful of readers that stuck around because they believed in me. This story is a thank you to them. For new readers, welcome.

Song for the chapter:
• Dreamboy by Waterparks
"Am I the boy you dreamed of? O-Oh. Living in your subconscious."
My eyes turn to the deep, velvety voice that belongs to one of my best friends, Taehyung. He sits across from me while staring into his phone. We sit at the dining room table in the western styled house we rented for this vacation. The light inside creates a mirror like reflection on the sliding patio doors behind him. I must say, my reflection looks good.
Taehyung constantly tousles his whiskey colored hair. In my eyes his hair looks cool, yet low maintenance. However, the bothered look on his face shows that he feels otherwise. I move around the dining room table to be a bit closer to him. When I'm close, I hold down the "record" button on the screen.
"Build your expectations, saturated and inflated, cause I was born to be your favorite."
The butterflies seemed to escape from the pit of his stomach as the familiar melody reached his ears. He realized that I was singing from one his favorite songs, Dreamboy by Waterparks. The corners of his lips turn upwards. "Build-A-Boy, pick my pieces, overjoyed, never leave your heart destroyed, I'm your boy." He and I make a few more random faces, including duck lips with peace signs, before ending the video.
He works on creating a caption before "and done" escapes his lips. A huge exhalation of pent up breath follows.
"Are you letting everyone know that you're sprung on Jin?" The name drags off my tongue while I sit back in my seat. I can't resist teasing him especially since his online followers started pairing the two together.
Taehyung's blushes furiously. "Your imagination is a dangerous place."
"Almost every post you make relates to him in some way. You're going to create a Jin based cult at the rate you're going."
Taehyung rolls his eyes. "The Jin cult has only just begun."
My shoulders shrug in response. He sighs before turning back away, filtering the video we filmed. Taehyung doesn't post online often. Seokjin and I encourage him to. I want him to post more to boost his followers. My best friend is a very talented and handsome guy so he deserves more likes on pictures than what he gets.
