I feel a little stupid for this...
April 26, 2009
12:00 AM: It’s Daesung’s birthday, and he’s having the time of his life. He’s pretty sure he’s going to be ranked well by the girls, they had another excellent Family meal together, and Jaesuk hyung remembered his birthday. He kept slipping Daesung snacks and munchies and he’s been particularly affectionate this time, saying ‘my Daesungie’ in a tone that has nothing to do with acting.
7:04 AM: Hyori noona just remembered its Daesung’s birthday today and leans her head on his shoulder. She whispers softly that, “Sorry, Daesungie…noona forgot. Let’s go out on a date later, okay? I’ll buy you a nice lunch.” and she pets his head. Daesung beams and looks a little forward for his birthday.
10:17 AM: Sooro hyung is not usually violent during the game, but he shows what a real Game King is like when the maknae is threatened. Daesung slings his arms around Sooro later and damn, did he always want a strong older brother to take care of him.
2:26 PM: Daesung has lunch on the road back home and he shares with his driver, who shares his life story with Daesung as if he wasn’t a star or anything. Daesung loves it, listens carefully. The driver takes a little detour before hitting Seoul and buys Daesung a packet of gourmet French fries. Daesung doesn’t say he avoids fried foods, but he makes a note to do extra crunches later tonight.
3:32 PM: His band mates are out. There’s a note taped to his magnet on the fridge that says, “Ssongie, recording studio! Come do your part with us, slacker. Hyung at Iris today so his time slot’s yours now ^^<3” Daesung smells a trap, checks the calendar. He stares for a while at April 26th where it says ‘T.O.P-DRAMA STAR!!!’ He wanders off to look for something nice to wear.
6:45 PM: Daesung’s…not so sure… is maknae really allowed to drink that much? But somehow no one’s noticed how many Sojus he’s downed except maybe Jiyong who keeps egging him on. They can all be pardoned; the studio’s a little dark because all of the balloons and festoons are getting in the way of the light. And there’s a haze covering the air, twinkling in everyone’s eyes, but it might just be happiness and Youngbae’s sweet voice singing Happy Birsday that’s covering all of their vices, just for today.
7:00 PM: Yang sajangnim is late as usual and rushes into the birthday party, looking kind of confused. “Goddamn Japanese airways! Never booking JAL again. Daesungie, I’m sorry I’m late,” he puffs for breath and holds out a gift that still has the duty-free tag on it. It’s a One Piece figurine, Roronoa Zoro, and it looks so ridiculous in sajangnim’s hands.
7:13 PM: Sajangnim doesn’t care too much when Daesung smears cream on his face. He just says, “Dumber brother, what are you trying to prove?” and he laughs at Daesung’s stupid dance. The cake is home made by Jiyong’s mother, three different flavors and swirled icing.
9:22 PM: The party is broken up surprisingly early, probably because the noraebang machine is on the fritz and the food is gone. The colorful balloons are still bobbing surely and Jiyong grabs a handful to tie to Seungri’s jacket zipper, “So I don’t lose you, you drunken fuck,” he giggles and leads Seungri out to the van. Youngbae and Daesung follow slowly because Jiyong can’t seem to hold onto Seungri properly, his hands are everywhere on maknae. Daesung wonders if he should help, but he doesn’t think Jiyong needs it.
11:39 PM: Youngbae finally breaks up the gigglefest of helium-induced idiots singing ‘Baby I’m Sorry’ (“Is this how you hit those notes, hyung?!” Suengri shrieks, high-pitched, soon after he says that). Then he reminds Daesung to go to sleep soon since they have practice tomorrow. Daesung looks at the clock.

12:48 AM: He does a total of fifteen crunches, his feet high in the air. Then his feet flop back to the ground. He rolls over and picks up the Zoro figurine that is slashing valiantly on the mattress and he pokes his finger with it. Daesung mutters, “I hate assassins.” and flicks Zoro off the bed. (He goes to sleep a few minutes later, dreaming of brightly dressed assassins and green-haired pirates.)
1:52 AM: Roronoa Zoro crunches under Seunghyun’s foot. He swears, reaches blindly for and turns on the bedside light, and Daesung wakes up. Daesung watches as Seunghyun picks up the rubber figurine and sets it on the windowsill next to rubber Luffy. Then he looks down at Daesung with an apologetic look, “Sorry I’m late…happy birthday, Daesung.” Daesung’s smile puts the lamp to shame and Seunghyun’s apologetic look turns adoring as he leans down to kiss his boyfriend, “How was your birthday?” Daesung’s fingers are in his hair, “It was a little lonely without you…”
2:01 AM: Thoroughly kissed, Daesung’s glad he’s had a bit of a nap before Seunghyun came home from filming. Because Seunghyun looks ready to crash; his eyes are starting to squint a little. But he still finds the energy to possessively entwine himself around Daesung. “Better now?” he asks Daesung even though they both know Daesung would never have a lonely birthday. Daesung just smiles and tucks Seunghyun in, “Much.”
12:00 AM: It’s Daesung’s birthday, and he’s having the time of his life.
