Ramblings & Fun Fact .01
I GOT MY DRIVER'S LICENSE!!!
I'm so happy and stoked and ready to have my own car now but i have to wait for school to start back and i get my refund check before i can do any of that. That's one of the reasons it took me so long to write chapter six. I was studying (last minute cramming) for the driver's test. And i was so nervous when i really didnt have to be. But I've come to terms with that attitude of mines. I stress myself out before big/major tests when it's unnecessary because I'll ace them anyway.
And I'm job hunting.
It's boring not having much to do during the summer, so I really want to get a job. Preferably a boring one where there are loads and loads of books and free time so i can read or write or hopefully both. My last job was the pits and I was so happy when they laid me off it's ridiculous. But now because i want to save up for a car, I want to get another job so I'll have something to do when i'm not in class (and so i can have gas money when i get my car). Shallow, yes. But I dont mind :)
I have this dier urge to write a oneshot. A fluffy oneshot because I'm over here dying with all the comments about how angsty my writing is. I realized a while ago that the amount of 2min fluff i try to put in the chapters seems a bit forced on my end. Mostly because I'm writing in Taemin's pov, and since he's going through so much in his life, it's hard to write about some good before getting out all the bad. So sorry to anyone who is a bit disappointed by my 2min fluff. My head is filled with angst, and by default, Taeminho has to suffer the consequences lol
BUT, that said, I am also working on a legit fluffy oneshot. And by fluffy i mean cheesy and by cheesy i mean prepare all barf bags. It would be my first fluff piece ever, so I'm looking forward to it. And it wont be like WIAP (what's in a picture). That originally started out being a one shot. But there was so much stuff that needed to get out and so many ways i wanted to develop my characters before it ended, that i didnt have the heart to leave Taemin with a broken heart like i originally intended to do. 2min is only 2min with a happy end after all.
I'm not too sure when I'll start writing the oneshot. It may come before the next chapter, it may come after the next chapter. It depends on my mood of 2min at the moment I sit to type it out.
And speaking of WIAP, I found this note in my Evernote stash of writings and thought I'd share it with you all. This is what was originally supposed to be that WIAP oneshot, but it never actually got there. Yes, it's more angst. Just so you're warned.

I hate this. Since when have we been so formal with one another? Not even making eye contact across the small round table of the cafe. The cafe once deemed 'our cafe'. The cafe where I first met you with your copper brown mane of lightly tousled curls. I stood behind you and your friends in line. Curiously watching as they fussed over you...their maknae. Your laughter ran chills up and down my spine, your smile lit up the naturally lit cafe even more. You were a ray of sunshine without a care in the world. You used to always smile back then. And I can't help but wonder when exactly it was your ray of light began to dim.
"Minho ssi, I really don't have time to sit here. What did you want?"
I forcibly swallow the lump that formed in my throat at your cold tone. Never have I heard such a tone from your delicate lips. All I ever knew you to say was soft gentle words. Your now hard eyes held none of the warmth they did only two years ago.
Two years…has it really been that long?
"I…just…well, h…how have you been…Taemin-ah?" I heard myself stammer unable to remove my eyes from your intense gaze. It used to be you to be nervous around me. When did that change? What else about you had changed that I didn't know about? Are those also my fault?
Your eyes narrowed, causing me to flinch. You didn't have to respond for me to know how dumb it was for me to ask the obvious. "Fine."
"Ah, that's good," I cleared my throat and hastily took a gulp of the bottled water sitting on the table in front of me. I try to break from your gaze, looking out the window at the people and cars passing. "That's really good."
"Well, if that's all I have to leave." You went to stand up, the legs of your chair screeching when you pushed back from the table.
"Taemin wait," I grabbed desperately for your wrist only for you to wretch it away from my touch. The look of contempt on your face brought a stinging pain to my heart that I knew wasn't painful enough to amount to the pain i brought you.
"Don't touch me," you hissed as quietly as you could despite it being a reflex. A few eyes glanced over at us, but turned away since we were just staring at each other. "Don't you dare touch me with your filthy hands, Choi Minho."
Despite the obvious fury in your tone, my heart couldn't help but jump around in my chest hearing my name from your precious lips. "…Sorry." I bit my lip, staring down at the table before back up at you. "Please, I need to talk to you. Please, Taemin."
