The Kpop Otaku's Dream

Irene soon calms down and makes her way over to me.

As she takes a seat closer to me, I reach over and fix her hair which has been disturbed by excitement, tucking it neatly behind her ear.

"You got changed, really quick." I comment, "This must be a record time for you, where did my little sloth go? You are almost unrecognizable!"

"Hey! I just put on a bit of makeup" She says

"A bit, she says. " I tease her lightly

Hyori looking at the two of us, can't help but sigh. Noticing this, I ask "Noona is something the matter?"

She chuckles and says, "If I knew I was walking into a lovers den. I definitely wouldn't have come here"

Irene blushes, as I comment, "You weren't invited in the first place."

"How long have you guys been dating?"

"About a year?"

"And you guys live together? Wow, Dylan, that's some big balls you got" She says with a playful sneer

'Technically she's my neighbor' I internally think but just shrug it off

"Is your agency, okay with you guys dating?" Hyori questions

"Well they know, and they are okay with it" I answer, it's not like I'm going to tell myself that I can't date the love of my life. Seriously, I bought S.M and created my own agency just to make sure that the only people involved are the people in the relationship.

"Seriously?" Hyori seems a little surprised, "It's been 10 years since my debut with Fin.Kl and my CEO still won't let me date."

"Well I guess, we were just lucky to have an understanding boss. And since it's still a while till Joohyun debuts, I think it won't be a problem." I answer

"Are you also an actress trainee?" Hyori looks towards Irene for an answer

"No, unnie. I'm training to be an singer. I'm actually part of Idol-group training."

"Are you sure you don't want to be an actress? With your visuals, you are definitely going to popular" Hyori comments

Irene blushes slightly before answering "I-I really like to sing... It's my ... always been my dream"

"If you don't mind me asking what agency are you with?" Hyori asks

"Don't worry Noona! she's in a big agency" I speak up

"How big?"

"S.M ... big"

Hyori's eyes widen in surprise, "No wonder I thought you looked familiar, Joohyun-ssi. You really have that S.E.S, Eugene-like prettinessthing going on about you"

"Thank you" Irene bows as she answers

"It wasn't a compliment," Hyori says quite straightforwardly

"Haha, Wow who thought the nation's fairy and nation's goddess's rivalry would still persist to this day" I tease

"Never-mind about that miss goody-goody whose never done a bad thing in her entire existence" Hyori retorts before continuing to speak, " Anyway how did you kids meet?" She asks, extremely intrigued at my love life

"We met in Daegu at High school... In our senior year. Dylan was a weird transfer kid, who all the girls were crazy for. Yet for some inexplicable reason was ridiculously cheesy and pushy towards me. So to avoid any hassles, I just thought why not give the tall guy a chance. Long story short, I ended up in Seoul with this guy and can't seem to throw him away yet" Irene finally gains the courage to insert herself into the conversation.

Grabbing her closely, I kiss her on her cheeks ever so slightly, "And you never will, babe. You are stuck on me like glue"

"If only, I was the only one. Sometimes, I wish you were a little less beautiful" Irene murmurs inaudibly.

'Did she just use the word beautiful to describe me? You are using the wrong adjective baechu"

"O-Ooooh High School sweethearts! Dylan, I was wondering how a teenager could write a love song like this. Turns out you wrote it for her" Hyori says a little sourly

Irene slightly shocked at the development, asks stutteringly. "D-Dylan... you wrote that song?"

I nod my head

'In this lifetime, I will be credited with copyright. So it's not a lie'

"For me?" She asks further

I nod my head again.

'Still not a lie'

Irene's face contorts cutely as if her brain is trying to compute the information.

Ignoring her mini-meltdown. I face Hyori, " So Noona, do you think the song is good enough for your album?"

"Definitely! That's why I rushed over!" Hyori screams as she grabs my hands in hers, putting on a pleading expression. Her sincere eyes and expression, makes me squirm a little as her dark hazel eyes stares straight into mine.

"Yes?"

"Dylan-ssi, will you .... make a song with with me?" Hyori asks

"That's quite the proposal right there miss lee.... There's only one answer I can give isn't it?" I ask rhetorically .... "I do!"

"Great! Then let's go" Hyori grabs me and starts pulling me from my seat

"Go? Where to?"
