One Shot: Teen Top Crazy
“Will you be like my girlfriend?”
She panics.
“No.” This is going to get really awkward if I don’t split, pronto.
She starts walking but breaks into a run. He hesitates a moment, and then gives chase.
She gets on a train and he keeps chasing her. Remembering a shortcut to the stop where she might get off, he sprints through a tunnel. She gets on the bus just as he catches up. Without stopping to catch his breath and probably wheezing his lungs out already, he barrels after the bus. Again he nearly catches up and again he gets left behind. (Desperation and adrenaline gets you only so far, kiddo.) Not all is lost, however, as she has taken notice of his desperation.
Her thoughts: “Wow, he’s working really hard. Sigh. Why am I so pretty? I only saw him once and he wants to go out already? I’m going to kill nuna. I knew she wanted to see how I’d look as a girl but did she have to go as far as drugging me, changing my clothes, and sticking me in another part of the metropolis? I woke up not knowing where the heck I was, and then I couldn’t walk two blocks without someone falling in love with me. I guess I owe him an explanation but how could I explain that I can’t be his girlfriend because I’m not a girl? This is so humiliating.”*
Xhe gets off the bus, still deep in thought as he continues charging after hxx. He follows hxx to an apartment building and runs up the stairs only to stop and realize that he doesn’t know where xhe lives.
“Fool.” Apparently, xhe decided to give the poor guy some closure. Changing a few details, xhe tells him, “My friend tricked me into crossdressing so I’m not a girl.”
He’s stunned for a split second, but then he hugs hxx to check.
“Fool.”
He laughs, marveling at the truth and thinking, “I just made an idiot of myself, huh.” Feeling hot from running and from embarrassment at spending all that energy on chasing a beautiful guy, he shakes out his shirt for some nice ventilation. He looks at hxx and then looks away while scratching the back of his neck, still astonished.
He turns to hxx and pulls hxx close. While kissing the top of hxx head, he whispers, “Actually, I’m getting stalked by a batshit crazy girl who didn’t believe my lie that I have a girlfriend. It’s actually good that you’re really a guy, so can you pretend to be my girlfriend anyway?”
They sit down. Xhe laughs. ”Are you kidding me? Well, I guess I have free time for a play date today.”
“Let’s hit the arcade!”
“YEAH!”
“Remember, you can’t act like a man!”
“Oh, right…”
*I do know that SoHyun doesn’t look anything like a guy but once the plot idea popped into my head, there was no getting rid of it.
