I can do all for you.
Cause you’re the only one for me.
“Nice song.” said a familiar voice in Taemin ears. Suddenly, the mop haired boy was being hugged from behind. The familiar person putting his head onto the smaller teen’s shoulder. The person behind Taemin breathed in, taking in the sweet scent of vanilla that so reflected his personality.
“Jinki hyung?” Taemin asked, moving his head to the side to glance down at his shoulder. “How long have you been there?” He asked his boyfriend who still hugging him, now making them dance slowly to a silent song.
Jinki paused to enjoy the nighttime breeze, “Since you start to sing.” He breathed in deeply again, his boyfriend’s scent making him heady.
Taemin hummed in acknowledgement, basking in the protective warmth Jinki offered from the cold wind.
“I like your voice so much,” Jinki said, kissing Taemin’s cheek. “It’s like hearing an angel sing.” He said against the softness of the younger boy’s skin.
“Its not as good as yours.” Taemin said, turning his back so Jinki wouldn’t see his smiling and blushing face.
“But, you’re improving and I’m glad to be the one who noticed it.” Jinki said, touching Taemin’s cheek; he stroked it lightly.
“You singing here…it makes me remember the time we first met.” He said.
“But it’s different hyung. This time you’re the one who caught me practicing and besides, this isn’t a rooftop.” Taemin said, trying to hide his blushing face from Jinki gaze.

Flashback *Taemin POV*
It was coming from the rooftop, a nice voice, so angelic and calming, it was almost like it was inviting everyone who heard it to come and get near. I followed the voice enjoying the harmonic melody of the person singing, until I found the owner of the voice. There was only one person on the rooftop, and there was no doubt as to who was singing.
I’ll be the one to love you when the morning comes
I’ll be the one to love you……..forever more
Without realizing it, I clapped my hands when he finished the song; giving him an applause that alerted him to my presence.
“Uhmm.. Sorry for interrupting.” I said bowing my body 90® a little embarrassed. The person started towards me, and I began to feel uneasy for the first time since I heard the voice.
“It’s okay, you don’t have to apologize, I’m finished anyway.” He said. “I’m Lee Jinki by the way.” He extended his hand and smiled to me, a sweet and pure smile.
“I... I’m Lee Taemin.” I answered a bit shy; it’s always like this when I meet someone new.
“Wow we have the same surname.” I nodded my head, still a bit stunned by his kindness, it’s rare to find someone so nice these days.
“What are you doing here by the way?” He asked me again. I can’t control my blush now, should I tell him that I was following his voice?
“I... I heard your voice when I was on my way to the exercise room.” I explained, hoping he didn’t find me weird.
“I’m sorry if that bothered you, but when I hear your voice it was so inviting.” I continued since he didn’t say anything.
“You said sorry too much, it’s okay, really, and thanks.” He flashes a repeat of his previous smile, and I can feel my heart beating fast.
“Why are you practicing here? I rarely see you at the Practice Room.” I ask, feeling more confident. “The practice room was always crowded and I’m new to that place, so I feel a bit awkward.” He answered.
I see he’s new here, no wonder I never saw him. “So what will you do now? Since you met the owner of the inviting voice?” he teased.
“I don’t know.” I said heating up again. There was a pause, not at all uncomfortable, between us, we just sat on the rooftop and watched the setting sun clouds flowing in the sky.
“I like to sing while watching the sky and the floating clouds.” His said breaking the silence. “I wonder, can I send my voice up there?” I can see a sparkle of happiness in his eyes when he talks about singing. He really likes it, I decided then, he likes singing as much as I like dancing.
“I’m a shy person and usually my friends like to make fun of me, I can’t do everything perfectly, and well I’m a careless person.” He chuckled.
“What do you mean?”
“I trip easily, even if there isn’t anything blocking my way, and sometimes I act really weird? My friends called it my Sangtae side.”
“Then one day I found out that I like to sing, and I’m not too bad at it either. I like to express the emotions in songs: anger, happiness, betrayal, love, you know what I mean…maybe that’s the best thing I can do without tripping.” He chuckled again, “How about you? What do you like?”
I’m a little stumped with his question, “I like to dance, for myself and for my brother. When I see my brother, I dance for him. I want him to be proud of me.” I said, sometimes I feel a bit shy whenever people ask why I like to dance.
“Well that’s a good reason, you’re doing that because you want to make the one you love proud of you, that’s nice.” He said while stroking my hair, make it messy.
I give him a big thank you smile. He’s a really nice hyung; I hope I can know him more. “What does it mean to you when you sing?” I ask back, now he’s the one to look a little perplexed with my question. He scratches the back of his head confused.
“Well umm... I can’t tell you with the right way, but for me, it’s good and it’s an important thing in my life. It’s the way I express my feelings and how I can show my true self. Its almost like how I refresh myself when I’m tired with life.”
Every time he talks about singing I see a sparkle in his eyes, something that I always have when I talk about dancing, I know it feels. “Can you teach me how to sing?” I don’t know what makes me ask him that, but after hearing his voice and his reason, I want to feel it too.
“Eeh?! Me teaching you?” he seems taken a back, I just nod my head. “Why me?” he asked, and I don’t know why, I just shake my head left to right giving him an I-don’t- know answer. “There’s already a teacher for that right?” he asks again.
“I know, but I didn’t take that class, because my voice still changing… and besides, I feel like it’s better for you to teach me. It seems that you know what I should do.” Suddenly I realized a possible answer for his reluctance, “Or do you not want to? It’s okay.” I said give him a small, hurt smile.
“No no it’s okay, I would love to.” He smiles to me. When he says yes, I feel like Christmas just came early that year. I feel unexplainably happy, and can’t believe such a good thing would happen to me. . “A.. are you sure?” I ask him, just to make sure he didn’t regret what he said earlier.
He nodded his head, and sends me another smile. “Yeah, but don’t hope too high because I’m still an amateur.” He said jokingly. “It’s okay, it’s enough.” I said giving him a hug.
Right on cue, just in time to break the moment, my phone vibrated. It was a message from my brother. “Jinki hyung I think I should go home now. It’s already so late.” I said to him, he looked at his watch, and I can see he realized how long we’ve talked.
“Wow yeah it’s already late; I think I’ll go home too.” We’re walked down together, talking about my private vocal lessons.
“Okay then, tomorrow on the rooftop, right hyung?” I asked him before we left to our respective homes. He gives me a thumbs up sign, and I feel regretful as I leave first with my brother. I walk backwards with Taesun hyung and wave to Jinki Hyung until he becomes a speck in the distance.
***
So it became a habit to me and Jinki hyung: meeting and practicing on the rooftop we met on. Sometimes I teach him how to dance too, and I can find that he’s good dancer…even thought at first he seemed confused at how to do some of the moves. But he learned fast. It was the same every day, and I loved it, the easy constant in my life.
I always on our rooftop like always that day, but that day was different. That day, I was going to tell Jinki hyung that I wouldn’t be a trainee anymore. I would be debuting in the new five member group from the company. It was bittersweet, knowing that I would lose my time with Jinki hyung on the rooftop, but instead practicing for the opportunity of a lifetime. I didn’t get a chance to tell him that day, though. After two hours of waiting, I gave up and went home. It was all happening too fast, me, I was only 16, and I had reached my dream, …and I didn’t know whether I was supposed to be happy or not. Happy that finally I got my dream, or sad because it meant that we couldn’t see each other again.
“Don’t be sad Taemin, how do you know that Jinki hyung won’t join the same group as you?” my brother tried to cheer me up. I told him everything about Jinki hyung, including the feeling that looms over me when I know that there’s a possibility we won’t see each other anymore.”
“But what if we are in different groups hyung? What if Jinki hyung forgets about me?” I panic, and I can help it, I just feel so comfortable by his side.
“It’s okay, you’ll get used to it, okay? Sleep now, you have to wake up early tomorrow.” My brother comforts me, covering me with my blue blanket.
“But..”
“Shhh, everything is gonna’ be okay.” He says softly, “I know how close you two are, and I believe you two won’t forget about each other, now sleep.” He doesn’t let me speak as he dashes out of the room after turning the lights out.
****
I’m so nervous now; I’ve been in this room for the past 30 minutes with some random people that will be part of my group. There’s Kim Kibum, sub vocalist, Choi Minho, the rapper, and Kim Jonghyun, the lead vocalist. We all are waiting with bated breath, for the last member to arrive, the so called leader. I begin to bite my nails, but one of the other boys, Kibum I think, swats my hand away from my mouth, and just then, someone bangs in into the room with all the grace of a rhino.
“Sorry I’m late.” Said the last person pants, having obviously run here. I’d know that voice anywhere, and just as I turn in my seat to look at our leader, the man in front of us introduces him.
“So nice of you to join us Lee Jinki.”
I turn completely, and when our eyes meet, he gives me the goofiest smile that I’ve come to match with his personality.
“Lee Jinki, Kim Jonghyun, Kim Kibum, Choi Minho, and Lee Taemin, you five have been chosen to be placed into a group named SHINee.”
*****
“Taemin?” Jinki’s voice breaks into Taemin’s deep thoughts.
The other teen just stares at his boyfriend, confused. “What is it Jinki hyung?” Taemin asks, making the other boy pout. Taemin giggles, “Don’t pout, it doesn’t suit you.” He says teasing his boyfriend.
“But you just ignored me, for fifteen minutes.” says Jinki. “What were you thinking about that made you ignore my sweet words?” ask Jinki nuzzling into Taemin neck.
“Just our first time meeting hyung.” said Taemin with a wistful look on his face. Jinki’s pout is immediately replaced with a sweet smile, the smile he saves for only Taemin.
“Oh…that time...you still remember?”
Taemin nods, “Of course silly, how can I forget our roof top memories?” Taemin turns his head again, and leans down to capture Jinki’s lips with his. He smiles into the kiss; with the stars as their audience, and Seoul city at night as their background, it all feels right. Together is right. “I love you hyung.”
