Summary: People rarely have the chance to find their soulmate, but it looks like you just met yours. Your one out of Billions. And he just might be your Bias as well.
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5
A world where, somewhere on this planet, there is a person that loves you unconditionally. A person that will always only love you. Bad thing that there are over 7.3 Billion people on this planet. Another bad thing is that men feel the pull to their ‘destiny’ immediately. For women it will take about a week to notice. It feels like something is missing. Something important. Many people will never find their destined. That’s what we call the 'missing piece’. People still fall in love. But the pull towards your missing half is stronger.
I never thought my day would go like that. I woke up this morning and it was already 6.15 am. Usually I stand up at 5.45. I put on minimal make-up and brushed my hair. I put on black jeans, a T-shirt and my hoodie, took my black backpack with the 'exodus’ symbol and ran to catch the bus. To my luck, the bus was late this morning and I didn’t have to worry about missing school. I plopped down on the seat next to my best friend. She looked at my backpack and shook her head in an annoyed way. She never really understood why I liked those 12 boys but to me, they are like sunshine on a cloudy day. Their personalities always seem so happy and excited. I take my headphones and put them on. Overdose immediately blasts through the speakers and I carefully nod my head to the beat. Although I don’t speak their language I carefully moved my mouth the way I think those words are pronounced and take out my Spanish book. My finals are nearly done and my life is just one stressful thing. When the bus stopped I quickly hopped outside and walked the last few meters towards my school. Inside, I sat down at one of the computers in the computer room and checked my tumblr. At that time I didn’t know what would be happening right now…
Because right now I’m standing in front of 12 handsome men that are looking at me with happy smiles. I know that they are in the country. . But I thought they were on the other side. Not here. Not in my hometown. “Are you alight?” Their leader asks in a concerned tone. Suho. Suho is talking to me. I nod quickly and smile at them. My hands are shaking. Why are they shaking? “I’m fine. Thank you.” “We thought that you would regret it when you find out that we are here. I mean. We saw your backpack. You know who we are. Right?” Kai looks at me, suddenly unsure. “Of course she does.” Tao says confidently and winks at me. “Yeah, of course I know who you are. Wow. Y-you’re real.” I stammer and blush a deep red. Chanyeol starts laughing loudly and people on the street start looking at us. “Yes we are real.” He laughs and pokes my shoulder. “Wait a second. I’ve seen interviews of you in English. And at that time your English wasn’t nearly as good.”I exclaim surprised. “Since we’re getting bigger and bigger all over the world the management said that we had to improve our English.” Kris tells me. He continues “They grave us a teacher and the others can nearly understand everything a person says in English. Speaking is another thing. Some of us can speak really well, while others are a little shy about it.” He looks at Luhan, who stares at me intensely. As soon as our eyes meet he looks at me and smiles. “Hi.”It’s only a whisper, but I heard it. I never thought that he would be like that. “Anyway. Would you like to take a picture?” Kris asks and I smile. My mouth starts hurting because my smile is so wide. “Of course. That would be amazing”. One after another we take pictures together. First is Kris , who looks at my camera with a slight smile. Next one is Tao, who basically does the same. After that comes Chanyeol who makes weird faces. After him, everything is really relaxed. The boys start joking around and we laugh together, although I’m still a little shy. They are Exo. Last one is Luhan, who looks at the camera long enough to take one picture. The other pictures we take are mainly of me smiling at the camera and him looking at me. “Are they okay?” He whispers into my ear and I shudder because I feel his warm breath on my neck. They boys look at him in surprise. “They are perfect.” I tell him and then look at the other 11 faces “Thank you so much.” “Thank you. It was really nice to meet a fan who doesn’t scream loud enough for the rest of the planet to hear.” Kris laughs and rubs his ear jokingly. “No just kidding.” To my surprise he smiles at me. “Could you maybe show us a good restaurant in return?” Luhan asks. His English is good, I can only hear a slight accent. “Of course.” I ratter down some of the better restaurants in the city. “Well. But my personal favourite is 'Neverland’. It’s a small restaurant. It’s not really expensive, but the family running it is really lovely. And their food is delicious.” I smile at them and wait for their answer to explain them where to go. “Neverland sounds great to me.” Chanyeol says. “I’m really not in the mood to go somewhere crowded” Chen agrees. The boys quickly discuss something in Korean and look at me afterwards. Especially Luhan was a lively part of this discussion and all the boys looked at him in surprise but then shrugged in agreement. “Can you show us the way to the restaurant?” Suho asks and hands me my backpack. I didn’t even notice that they all signed it while we were taking pictures. “Sure. I really have nothing to do today.” I start walking and quickly turn around to check if they are following me. When we arrive at the restaurant I look at them and smile. “Tadaaa! We’re here.” The restaurant looks really homey and as we enter, we are greeted by a lovely 'Hello’ and a hug for me. The owner knows me by now. She’s a lovely, middle-aged woman who takes good care of her customers. I ask her to push some tables together and as soon as that is done , the boys sit down and to my big surprise, Lay and Tao pull me down with them. I’m now surrounded by handsome young man who all look at me like little kids. “You’ll stay with us and eat with us!” Baekhyun exclaims and sits down next to Luhan, who is right in front of me. His deer like eyes are big and staring at me. “What’s your name.” His question surprises me. We didn’t introduce ourselves because I know who they are. The boys look at me curiously. “S-sure. I’m Y/N.” I smile at them. Luhan whispers my name and slightly pronounces it wrong. I look at him and smile. “Close. But I have to admit it’s kinda hard to pronounce.” I giggle and he looks at me embarrassed. “I’m sorry.”He whispers and looks away. “Oh no. It’s alright.” I smile and quickly grab his hand, which is laying in front of him on the table. I quickly squeeze it and let go of it. My fingers still prickle where I touched his skin. He looks at me again, now with a slight blush. I notice the guys staring at him and quickly grab my menu. “Let’s order” The guys cheer and their attention isn’t on Luhan any more. I feel a foot carefully nudging mine and look up to see Luhan smiling at me thankfully. I take a closer look at the guys and notice that they all look a little exhausted. Their new video just came out and they are promoting it everywhere. That has to be quite stressful. I already know what I want to order, so I don’t even take a look at the menu. Tao pokes my shoulder and asks me something about the menu. I explain what that means and he nods. When all the boys are ready, we place our orders and chat a little. Since they are mostly speaking Korean I feel really left out. Only Luhan doesn’t really take part in their conversations. “Do you still go to school?” He asks me and smiles a little. I nod. “Yeah. My finals will be over in about a week.” I smile exhaustedly and furrow my brows. He looks at me and makes big eyes. “You should studying.” He whispers and looks at me. “Well. Firstly I studied all week and the last weekend already, plus. I would regret it all my life if I would let this opportunity go.” He nods understandingly and starts talking to me about random things. His English is really good. He makes some mistakes, but they are mostly unimportant and really small. “Food!” Tao nearly screams when he sees the plates and waits excitedly for his meal. We all start eating and the boys continue to chat. I’m not really a talker when I eat, so I just keep quiet and enjoy my meal.
My heart hammers in my chest whenever I look up and see Luhan and the others. 'It’s because they are Exo’ I tell myself and feel my cheeks redden 'I am eating lunch with Exo’ This is just too surreal. I still regret not wearing more make up but now it’s too late. Then we all finish our dinner and the boys start discussing whether or not they should order a dessert. “Suho hyung. Can you buy dessert for me?” Tao whines and the others soon join. After a while Suho gives in and looks at me in question. “Would you like a dessert, too?” I look at him insecurely “I can pay for myself. That’s no problem.” Suho shakes his head and continues to smile “I’ll pay your food and dessert. We didn’t really give you chance.” “A chance” Kris corrects him quietly and I can’t do anything else but giggle. “Thank you.” Suho nods and orders Kris to call over the waitress so we can place our orders. “Can you recommend something here?” Luhan asks me and looks me straight in the eye. I lose my breath for a second as I look into his sparkling, deer-like eyes. I bite my lower lip insecurely and nod. “I really like the Mousse au chocolat.” I whisper and he nods. “That sounds good.” He smiles at me encouragingly. “I’ll place our orders together.” He adds and I feel myself blush. “You really don’t have to. . . ” He cut’s me off “But I really want to. I’m the man.” I can hardly suppress my giggles. It’s just like in the interviews I’ve seen of them. Since I don’t really want to argue I just let him do that and watch him as he takes all of his confidence and places the order in perfect English. I feel really proud of them. Just a few months ago, only Kris was able to speak English fluently and now all of them are able to communicate with nearly all of their fans all over the world. Speaking of which, Kris is now looking at me curiously. “Do I have something on my face?” I ask in surprise and quickly take the napkin to carefully wipe my mouth. He laughs and shakes is head. He seems to laugh a lot today. “Everything’s alright.” He continues to smile a little and then looks around the table. While they are waiting for the dessert, the boys are busy joking around and annoying each other. I see Chanyeol flinching when D.O. raises his hand, after Chanyeol teased him. They really are just like in the interviews. “So. . “I start cautiously.”What are you guys doing here?” Baekhyun takes over “We’re staying here today, but we’ll leave this evening to go to New York and give a concert.” He takes a sip of his drink, smiles his cute smile and I feel like I have to smile back. Although they seem to be really tired, they are full of happy energy. I haven’t been this happy in forever. Our dessert arrives and we all dig in happily. The mousse is delicious. I look at Luhan questioningly since he hasn’t touched his food yet. “Do you like it?” I bite my lip. Luhan takes a spoonful and I hold my breath. I would feel bad if he chose something he doesn’t like because of me. He chews and takes a sip of water “It’s delicious.” He smiles one of his bright smiles and my heart seems to jump out of my chest. I let out a sigh of relief and continue eating. Just after we finished our dessert, their manager calls and tells them that they have to return to the hotel. Suho asks for the check and ends up paying his food, my food and Taos food, as well as all the deserts. The rest of the guys pay their food by themselves and we stand up. “Thank you for this amazing day!” I smile gratefully and bow awkwardly. The guys laugh at me and my face heats up in embarrassment. “Thank you for the nice evening.” Lay says and the guys start saying goodbye and thanking me. The most surprising one is Luhan, who takes me, to my surprise and obviously to the surprise of all the others members, into his arms and hugs me tightly. “Thank you Y/N” His voice is just a whisper and his breath touches my cheek. As soon as he pulls away a little bit I look into his face and lose myself in his eyes. “Luhan. We have to go.” Tao says, oblivious to what is happening. I look at the others once more and then at Luhan. “Goodbye” I whisper carefully and watch after them as they leave.
