I'd like you comment HERE on LJ if you want because it's easier to find. (Sorry for this posted here-posted there thing but I can't know a better solution for this orz)
[Ending Thoughts (please only read after you're done with the story)]
Do you hear this? *BOOM* This is my baekchen heart breaking into pieces. I can’t believe I killed Jongdae AND it’s not even like I kill people in stories on a regular basis, he’s the freaking first one I got to kill… It kind of makes it special but either way *feeling extremely guilty*
Also it is my first time writing baeksoo… Yeah, I don’t understand myself either. Until two weeks (maybe) I could hardly accept any other EXO member as a partner to Baek’ in my fics but somehow I got these baeksoo feels (I’ve read some so much greater than mine baeksoo stories, I believe it matters a lot) which I wanted to write. And maybe it’s just me but for me baeksoo is a pairing made for angst…
It’s my first angst I’ve finished by the way and though it’s sad as shit I’m happy I could write it. It means a lot to me, I’ve put a lot of feelings in it (not real experiences… okay not all of them) and worked hard trying to make it the way I want it to be. It’s still possible you don’t take some things the same way as I do (as in you misunderstand my intention with some actions and characters) but if you have anything like this, please, write a comment and we can talk it out. I don’t say I convince you I’m right because I purposely left a few things open, but if you know what I wanted to achieve with it, maybe you won’t be that mad at me anymore. ^^
There’s a lot of things I’ve experienced writing this… Actually I wanted to put some “Fun Facts” at the end of this part but realized later that 1) some of you might not want it 2) this part is long enough, I should post it alone.
What do you think? Do you want to read some behind the scenes? If you answer is yes, please let me know.
As closing words, I hope you like this two-shot, no matter how messy, melodramatic and long it is. It sounds weird but I’m kind of proud of myself for writing this all and though I saw the flaws in it I love it wholeheartedly.
Xoxo,
bea
