A/N: Even though I've said that it's a Kihae, I never actually specified whose point of view it was,... so technically it's a Kibum/anyone you want fic but there are minor clues which indicate that it's Kihae.
Kibum. That name briefly crosses your mind and is quickly lost amongst your other thoughts. Now’s not the time to think about him, is what you say to yourself while shaking your head. You have to concentrate.
The performance is finally over and you heave a sigh of relief. You’re surrounded by smiles and tears and hugs and laughs until you yourself are embraced from behind. “You were thinking about me, weren’t you?” A soft voice whispers in your ear. You shake your head and laugh lightly. “No, Kibum… why would I be thinking of you?” He smiles knowingly but lets you go. You immediately start to miss the warmth of his arms. He motions to you that he’s leaving and you watch him leave the room.
Before you knew what you were doing, you were running after him. Calling out to him, screaming his name. “Where are you?” He’s disappeared from your view and you’re in an unknown place. His soft laughter fills your head and you turn around in the hopes of seeing him but to no avail. You finally spot him turning a corner and you run as fast as you can, running and running, trying to get closer.
All of a sudden everything is still and he‘s standing right in front of you. He smiles that perfect smile and disappears.
You sit up on your bed, sweat dripping down your face. “Hey… it was just a bad dream… I’m here now… the nightmares won’t hurt you any more…” A soothing voice is by your side and strong arms hold you tightly. “It’s okay. I’m here.” You lean into the warm body and allow yourself to be calmed down by soft words and gentle cooing. Soon you are asleep again.
The next morning comes quickly. You wake up to find yourself alone in your bed and you feel lonely… so lonely. You wish for him to come to you and to just hold you and caress you just like he was doing last night. Before you were able to sink into despair, the door quietly opens and a familiar face peeks through.
“Oh good, you’re awake.” He gives you a friendly smile and sits beside you on your bed. “Is there something that you need to say? You’ve been having nightmares for a few months now.” A woeful smile shows on your face but he just smiles at you, encouraging you to say what you’ve been wanting to say.
“I like you.” He beams at your confession and holds you in his arms, murmuring about how much he liked you too. He holds onto you tighter and whispers into your ear, “I’m never letting you go.”
