August had came around a little too fast for your liking as you took your first step onto the bustling college campus
everyone had known where they were going as multiple people bumped into you, attempting to scurry to their classes on time
as you made your way into your new professors room, you scanned the place for a seat
arriving at the numbered chair, you cautiously set your things down, eyes roaming to the people around you to take in your surroundings
just as you were settling in, with the others finally quietting down getting ready for their lessons, the door burst open, revealing a tall boy with silver hair that framed his ethereal face.
you couldn’t help but laugh at how he had barely made it into the room, somehow managing to drop notebook after pen after textbook.
you got up out of your seat, rushing your way over to help the boy collect his things
“ Where are you sitting? I’ll bring them to your seat “ you asked him, clearly still holding his pens in your hand.
he slowly raised his finger towards a chair on the opposite side of the room.
it wasn’t exaggerated to say that you were nonetheless disappointed with his choice of seating.
thankfully your professor had walked into your classroom just as you had sat down in your seat again, taking what you thought were discreet glances at the unfamiliar boy
let me tell you, they were anything but secretive.
yet you seemed oblivious of the reason those chuckles were constantly escaping from his soft, pink lips
“ For this next activity, I’ll be pairing your up with your peers so that you’ll get a chance to meet everyone.” you heard the professors announcement.
“ G r e a t “ you thought, escaping the stress of high school peer work and this is what you get.
“ Y/n and Donghan, partner up! “ you heard the man yell.
automatically your eyes roamed the room to search for this “ Donghan “ person
the moment you made eye contact with the mysterious boy from earlier, you couldn’t help but let out a small squeal of joy.
the boy, or Donghan as he was called, was taking long but careful strides towards you from across the room, this time introducing himself to you.
“ Hello Y/n, I’m Donghan! It’s nice to meet you! I hope we can become good friends in the future! “ he greeted you with much enthusiasm .
“ Y/n, as you already seem to know “ you chuckled as you outstretched your hand to shake his.
the period of five minutes had gone by quickly, with you immediately learning that you had much in common with the dreamy boy.
the lecture soon came to an end with you placing your belongings into a small black backpack that you proceeded to throw over your shoulder.
before you could exit the lecture hall you were met with the familiar sight of Donghan
“ Before you leave could I get your number? “ he asked, eyes gleaming with the slightest bit of hope.
“ Of course “ you chuckled as you proceeded to type your digits into his contacts, not forgetting to add a few emojis next to your name.
days had passed and it was another lazy Saturday afternoon that started with you laying on the couch is strange positions that wouldn’t of been possible otherwise, if it wasn’t for the boredom controlling you
your phone pinged as the screen lit up in response to the notification
almost immediately your head shot up as you picked up your phone
“ Do you wanna go get some food today? “ - Donghan
cue your smiling like an idiot
a cute boy, possibly the best looking on campus was inviting you out right now, and there was no way in hell that you were turning that down
“ Sure! Where at? “ you replied, hoping your enthusiasm wasn’t showing through the messages.
“ Mhm, idk yet let’s choose after I pick you
“ Sounds good “ you replied, typing in your address
“ I’ll be there in an hour then “ - Donghan
You sighed in content as you shut off your phone, before randomly kicking the air.
clearly you were ecstatic.
6 o’clock had soon arrived as you put in the finishing touches to your outfit, it was nothing much, casual but still cute in your opinion
the sound of knocking had echoed through your apartment as a signal that donghan had arrived to pick you up
as you swung the door open you couldn’t help but let your jaw drop at how good he looked.
Donghan was wearing a pair or ripped blacked skinny jeans paired with a simple white button up, simple but yet he looked better than anything in your mind
“ Are you ready? “ he asked fiddling with his keys in one hand.
“ Yeah! “ you replied almost breathlessly as you had ran to open the door
grabbing your keychain you stepped out the door to give everything one last inspection before locking the door.
as you both headed down towards the parking lot you couldn’t help but feel that the excitement you had felt earlier was continuously rising
“ Where do you wanna go? “ his voice interrupted your train of thought
“ Anywheres fine, do you have any places in mind? “ you asked, truthfully you hadn’t thought of a single place to go yet considering you were rushing in that one hour to get ready
“ How about the college fair? “ he asked looking over for your approval
“ Sounds good to me “ you replied
you could feel yourself screaming as you realized how many of your
classmates you could potentially bump into at the place, considering it was your college fair after all
right as you were in the middle of your mini freak out section, you could see the car pulling up to some distant glob of lights to which you assumed would be the area that you’d both be spending the night
“ Let’s goooooo! “ you heard Donghan shout as he ran towards the food stalls in delight
you couldn’t help but let out a chuckle at his energy, he was much like a little kid and you enjoyed how much energy he radiated.
jogging, you eventually caught up to the tall boy peering over his shoulder on your tippy toes to catch a sight of the various types of food that the vendors were selling
“ ooo! How about this? “ you exclaimed at the sight of your favorite snack food, ddeokbokki,
“ gopher it, my treat “ you heard him say, and as if you had aced a test your eyes lit up immediately asking for two servings of the chewy rice cakes.
“ Thank youuu “ you barely managed to get out as you began to stuff some of the food into your mouth.
Donghan chuckled at the sight of you, with your cheeks puffed out, and lips in the biggest smile he’d ever seen you have
it wasn’t long before you both had cleaned off both of your plates, making your way around the venue of the festival
before you knew it, you had been attracted yet again by the sight of food
without even comprehending what you were doing, you quickly grabbed Donghan’s hand, intertwining your fingers together, pulling the blushing boy towards an ice cream stall
“ Which flavor do you like? “ you asked before turning back to the display case, eyes never once going dull
“ U-uh Vanilla? “ he almost questioned, mind still blank from your sudden actions
“ Two scoops of vanilla please! And one scoop or strawberry on a wafer cone would be great “ he heard you order.
Donghan didn’t know whether to let you continue holding his hand or to retract it, but in the end he knew that he wasn’t about to complain about a pretty girl’s unintentional movements.
“ Here you go! “ you exclaimed as you handed him his cone
“ Thanks Y/n “ he replied, cheeks blushing a slight tint of red from earlier that still hadn’t gone away
“ No problem no problem “ you had just repeated as you began to lick the cold treat holding his hand had become something so natural to you that you hadn’t noticed your intertwined fingers
that was until Donghan had pulled away after you suggested he join a dance battle for fun
little did you know the boy was so good at it?
you stood there, mouth wide open in awe as you watched him execute each move perfectly, who would’ve known he was this perfect at everything
you could hear the loud cheers and even occasional whistles of the crowd that had gathered, and you had somehow felt so proud
donghan had shot you a bright smile from the center of the crowd, and even then he looked stunning
the warm summer breeze blowing through his silver hair paired with the blurred out lights in the background had managed to make him seem like even more of a dream.
