Love Through Sheet Music
By request for
aoki_unleashed They first met on a variety show, Henry could never remember which one, but it was a rare chance that they had both been on it, especially since neither one of them went on many variety shows in Korea at all. Henry had taken a liking to him almost immediately, since it was rare to find anyone who could somewhat speak English, let alone someone who understood almost fluently and could speak back to him well enough to converse.
TOP was nice enough, accepting his hesitant greeting and replying in turn with a smile that was so different from what Henry had heard about the man. It had been a shame to have to go on camera where they had to be idols instead of just people, but he had been delighted when TOP had given him his number and requested for them to get together some time.
It really didn’t surprise him all that much, when nine months later, he found himself spread out on TOP’s bed, relaxed and sated, looking over sheet music that the man had just placed in front of him.
“This is really good,” Henry mused in English, flipping a page and trying to ignore the fingers that traced his spine or the lips that pressed to his bare shoulder.
“Ji-yong helped with the composition. We were thinking it would sound nice with your violin,” TOP’s rich voice drifted over his shoulder.
“You let him see this,” Henry asked, gesturing to the title printed in black in ‘L.O.V.E’.
“Of course,” TOP replied with an amused laugh. “He knows all about us anyway, what difference does it make?” his hand drifted lower on Henry’s back and the young man pulled away, stiffening and shifting to the edge of the bed.
“You talk to him about us?” he asked gathering the sheet about himself.
“It’s not like you don’t talk to your members about us,” TOP countered.
“I don’t,” Henry snapped. “Or at least not directly. They know I’m with someone but they don’t know it’s you.”
“Don’t they?” TOP asked. He fished for his phone Henry glanced at him, trying to ignore just how attractive the man looked lounging on his bed like a prince, bleached white hair un-styled and fanned over the pillows as he fiddled with his phone. Wordlessly he held it out and Henry accepted it.
There on the screen were the words: ‘Have fun tonight but if you make it so Henry can’t dance tomorrow, I will personally fix the problem forever. ㅋㅋ’ At the top of the screen was the name, Kim Heechul.
Henry couldn’t keep his face from turning bright red. “I still don’t talk about us to them,” Henry muttered. “And if my company told me to write a song for Christmas, I wouldn’t write something like that,” he said waving his hand and handing the phone back.
TOP grinned, seemingly satisfied with himself. “Are you embarrassed by the song?”
“Since you describe some of the intimate details of our relationship, yes just a little bit,” Henry admitted.
“Ji-yong thought it was sweet,” TOP told him, his grin widening.
Henry grabbed a sheet of the music and picked it up to look at it. “Fingers dance across my skin, as we make beautiful music from within,” Henry read.
“It’s in English, no one will get it.”
“Except for your English speaking fans, which there are a lot of,” Henry countered.
“Admit it, you love it,” TOP said.
“Not if you are going to show it to a whole slew of people in your company,” Henry argued, tossing the sheet back with the other.
“I’ll make you a deal,” TOP declared diplomatically, his fingers running up Henry’s arm, “You bring your violin next time and record it with me, and no one in the company but those that already have, will see it.”
“You swear,” Henry said, his eyes narrowing. If there was one thing he knew, it was how crafty the other man could be. “And you will actually sing?”
A lazy grin spread across his face, “I swear, and I will actually sing, for you.”
“Good,” Henry replied. “Then I might actually play and rap for you.”
TOP grinned, sitting up and pressing a quick kiss to Henry’s lips. The younger man responded without complaint, allowing himself to be laid back on the bed and the form of the rapper to cover his. A swiped of TOP’s hand brushed the sheet music onto the floor, forgotten for the moment. It fluttered down, resting with the first page on top displaying the title of ‘L.O.V.E.’ and the first lines of the song: ‘As the snow falls fresh and new/ the only thing I could want, is you.’
AN: Well that was interesting. lol. I think my Henry muse is embarrassed/mortified/horrified at this. My TOP muse (who I didn't even know existed) is amused. My Taemin and Heechul muses are caught in fits of laughter. I blame them for this one. I have no idea where else it could have come from. Oh well it was interesting to write and my brain was going "*drool* Naked TOP with sexy bedroom voice and promise to sing... Sign me up for some of that."
