Moonlight (Jongho SHINee)

All My Attention

The sound of the alarm stung his ears and as the light seemed to burn the edges of his vision, Jonghyun really hoped he had some hangover medicine in a drawer somewhere. He really wished they had waited until the weekend to 'celebrate' Kibum's new milestone. Once his alarm was silenced, Jonghyun slipped out of bed and was quick to start searching his kitchen for something to help his headache. A sigh left his lips when his text tone broke his concentration.

Taemin: Did you get an email back?

At first, Jonghyun was confused, but then realization hit him like a truck. He didn't, he couldn't have, oh please say he didn't. At the top of his sent folder, his fear was confirmed.

"For You <3" to Choi Minho

He couldn't tell if his headache was gone or if a new one was forming. He locked his phone and grabbed the closest generic painkiller, sighing as he took the recommended dose and hoped the email was fake. Even if it wasn't, maybe his secretary checked it instead, any scenario that meant the handsome CEO wouldn't see it.

A deep breath kept Jonghyun on track, deciding not to worry about the email and just go through the day like normal. And the lack of a response was a very good sign, maybe he wouldn't have to worry at all.

Of course, when lunch break came and he saw an email from Choi Minho in his inbox, he almost collapsed in the break room.

"Oh god" Jonghyun's voice was a little shaky, something he didn't expect, but it brought Taemin's attention to him.

"What is it?" The question didn't matter as Taemin was already looking at Jonghyun's phone, "Holy shit"

"I can't open it" Jonghyun instinctively handed the phone to Taemin, knowing he'd read it for him.

Jonghyun sat down as Taemin became heavily focused on the email, eyes darting back and forth. His expression was serious, so Jonghyun couldn't tell if he was going to hear good or bad news. When Taemin's eyes come up, Jonghyun swallowed in fear.

"I'm sorry, I'll make sure you get a good lawyer" Taemin apologized and read through the email again as Jonghyun's head fell into his hands.

"No, I can't get sued" Jonghyun sighed into his hands as Taemin came up to him.

"It'll be okay, just don't stand him up" Taemin had his shit-eating grin on as he showed Jonghyun the phone.

Jonghyun whacked his friend's shoulder, "You gave me a heart-attack Tae!" He took his phone back and stared in disbelief.

"Kim Jonghyun,

Your letter brought a smile to my face this morning, it's very different from the other emails I have received with the same subject. I'm not sure if you meant to send me it, but I'm glad you did, and I would like to meet you and get to know you better.

I am free today at 4pm. If you are available as well, please let me know. If not, I will be happy to reschedule.

Thank you,

Choi Minho"

"This can't be real" Jonghyun looked to Taemin in shock, "There's no way"

"Well, email him back and find out" Taemin suggested, "If he wants to meet somewhere shady then I'll come with"

"This is crazy, I'm either dreaming or hallucinating" Jonghyun's phone was on the table now, but Taemin grabbed it and smiled.

Taemin typed away and Jonghyun didn't try to stop him, leaning over to read what the younger was writing.

"I'm free at 4pm, where are we meeting?"

"It reads like a text" Jonghyun scoffed as the email was sent.

"Why would you write a letter just to say 'yes, I'll meet you'?" Taemin handed the phone back and Jonghyun agreed.

After about five minutes, there was another email in Jonghyun's inbox.

"Kim Jonghyun,

That is great news, if you could come to SHINe's head building around 4pm today that would be great. Just tell the front desk your name and they'll direct you to me.

I look forward to meeting you!

Choi Minho"

That's when it hit Jonghyun that this was actually Choi Minho, not some scammer.

"Oh god, I won't have time to go home and change" Jonghyun looked down at his clothes.

"Kibum might be able to drop something off" Taemin suggested and read the email, "Oh my god it's really him"

Jonghyun was quick to call Kibum, ignoring Taemin's shock at the situation.

"Hello?"

"Hey, I need a favor" Jonghyun was tapping his fingers on the table out of nervousness.

"Depends what it is" Kibum replied and he hoped the younger wouldn't be too nosy.

"I just need some clothes, something nice and formal" Taemin gave him a thumbs up and Jonghyun smiled.

"Do you wanna borrow something or am I going through your closet?" Kibum asked.

"Whichever you think is easier" Jonghyun was thankful he was willing to do it.

"Is it for a date? Or a job interview? And when do you need it?" The questions all came at once and Jonghyun wasn't fully prepared.

"Uh, an interview? And could you get it here by three?" Jonghyun didn't want to tell Kibum yet, mostly because if it went badly he wouldn't hear the end of it.

"I can do that, can't believe you scored an interview before me" Kibum was fooled and Jonghyun mentally high-fived himself.

"I'm surprised too" Jonghyun laughed and his nerves seemed to calm.

They said their goodbyes and Jonghyun let out another sigh, this one was long and content.

"You have a date with a hot CEO, I am a mixture of shocked and proud" Taemin smiled and Jonghyun felt his face go red.

"This feels like a dream" Jonghyun mumbled as he read the email again, he really hoped he wouldn't mess this up.
