Disclaimer:I own nothing but the plot :P
Summary:Sungmin leaves Ryeowook.Five years later,he debuts as the bass guitarist for Serenity along with Cinderella,Simba,and Henli.Beginning out with the nickname Danhobak,he sends tickets to Ryeowook to the first music festival he will ever perform in.
Ryeowook stood in the crowd,a ticket held tight in his hand.He was dressed in a patterned tan shirt with tight grey jeans and light grey converse.He looked around and spotted Kyuhyun talking to a tall red head.He waved his hands to get his attention.
"Hello everyone and welcome to our new concert hall event!Tonight's guest bands will be Black Poison and the newest band that has gained plenty of attention,Serenity!" the host yelled,making everyone in the stands quiet down and find seats.
"Ah Kyuhyun-ah!It's so crowded here!"Ryeowook said,his eyes widened.Kyuhyun had finally reached him and introduced him to Zhoumi,his new Chinese boyfriend.
"How'd you get tickets?!These are expensive!"Kyuhyun hissed.He stared at what was held tightly in Ryeowook's hands,his mouth dropping."Backstage passes too?!"he yelled,pulling them out of the smaller boy's hands.
"Hey!"Ryeowook yelled,snatching them back and stuffing the into his messenger bag."They came in my mail a week ago.It's only the tickets for tonight's bands.These,"he pointed at the backstage passes,"are for us to meet Serenity ONLY."
"Hey..."Zhoumi leaned over Kyuhyun."Aren't you that upcoming famous photographer?Your name is mentioned a lot by my friend-"
Before he could finish,the lights dimmed and the air filled with silence.A soft strum of a guitar echoed in the air.A stage light turned on and a girlish figure appeared in front of the microphone.
"That's Cinderella,the lead vocalist."Kyuhyun whispered,his eyes never looking away from the stage."His real name is Kim Heechul,he put the band together.Two of the members are said to be from China where he sometime vacations."
Sharp black eyes opened and scanned the crowd.When they met his,a smirk stretched across his face.He was dressed in a loose black blouse with red skinny jeans.His hair was in a loose ponytail tied with a red ribbon.
"Hello everyone,my name is Cinderella and tonight,Serenity will blow you away."Heechul said,smirking.A hard guitar rift blasted and the lights brightened on the stage as the drummer joined in.
"Ryeowook,now is the time to take pictures."Kyuhyun urged him,standing with the rest of the crowd.
As the crowd cheered and girls screamed,Ryeowook stood on his chair and began to take pictures.His camera clicked endlessly.When the song was close to an end,Heechul made his way over to the guitar player.He smiled at the crowd,and Ryeowook's camera,before grabbing his chin and kissing him roughly.Ryeowook's jaw dropped and the screams got louder.He had caught a picture of it,to his surprise.
When the song ended,the lights dimmed to a standable limit.The band put their instruments down and came to stand next to Heechul."Hello,we are Serenity!"they yelled together and bowed.
"Since you all know my name,its time to introduce the rest of the members!"the blonde said,laughing lightly.He handed the microphone to the person next to him.
"Hello!I'm Simba,the drummer.It's nice to see you all here."The drummer said.He bowed and waved his hand,smiling.
"YO!I'm Henli,the violinist!"The smaller one next to Simba yelled.He grinned cheekily.
When the microphone reached the guitarist,everything went quiet.Heechul took the microphone from him and whispered in his ear.The guitarist nodded and smiled brightly.
"This is our guitarist,Danhobak."Heechul said,motioning to him."There's been some rumours about his real name and where he's from.However,those will not be revealed until a later time.Please forgive him."The guitarist smiled apologetically and bowed his head.
"When we were asked to perform at SMU's first every concert event,we jumped at the opportunity.After all,everyone on this stage tonight went to SMU.Our Danhobak here was so excited,he sent tickets to an old friend.Danhobak,"Heechul put his arm around his shoulder,"reveal who this friend is for us."
Danhobak looked at Heechul nervously and took the microphone.He bit his lip and looked out into the crowd.Ryeowook's camera clicked away endlessly."You guys know a few photographers,right?"he said hesitantly,a thick Chinese accent standing out.A few murmurs of approval were voiced making Ryeowook freeze.He knew that voice very well.
"Ah,you know know him then."He scratched the back of his head shyly."I..I invited Kim Ryeowook and I wouldn't know if he's here tonight or not.Can you guys help me find him?"He said,nervously smiling.
Heechul took the microphone back.He handed Danhobak his guitar and smiled in mischievously."Since we have one last song and Danhobak's friend is here,we're making him perform his solo from our first album."He said.He gave him a thumbs up and walked off the stage.
Ryeowook shakily put his camera away.Tears had gathered in the corners of his eyes but he held them back.Before the first chord of guitar could play,he left.
AAAAAAA
When Ryeowook reached the back of the stage,he wrung his hands together nervously.His heart was beating rapidly.When a large security guard saw him,they instantly let him in.He was led straight to Heechul's room and left alone.He wiped his sweaty hands on his jeans before entering the room.
"Aish!Who gave out-Oh..."Heechul said,dropping his hand.He stared at Ryeowook in surprise.He stood up and walked over to him.Once within touching distance,he only gaped at the sight of the photographer.
"He wasn't kidding about you.."he whispered.He cupped Ryeowook's cheeks then pulled him into a tight hug."A-are you going to wait for him?He's almost don-"
Ryeowook shook his head and stepped back.He pulled a note out of his messenger bag and handed it to Heechul."If you don't mind,can you..can you give this to him?"He whispered,putting his head down.
Heechul took it and nodded.He put a disk in the smaller boy's hand."Listen to it,please.This was specially made for you by him."Heechul said,smiling sadly.
Ryeowook nodded and quickly left the room.He hurriedly found Kyuhyun and gave him the backstage passes.When Kyuhyun looked at him worriedly,he shook his head and smiled bitterly."It was nice seeing you again and meeting Zhoumi."he whispered and left.
AAAAAA
When Ryeowook got home,he was exhausted and stressed.He had made a stop at a store and bought two bottles of wine.He dropped his messenger bag on the floor carefully and took out his camera and the disk Heechul gave him.
A head poked out from behind the kitchen door."Oh you're home?The concert doesn't end til,"he looked at the time,"three hours from now.Why are you here?"
"Just leave me alone for the night,Jinho."he said,walking past him.He slammed the door to his room shut and locked it.He stared at the disk in his hand.'Might as well..' He stuck it in his CD player and opened a bottle of wine.
