A/N: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LOVELY jesape , first time writing a BEAST fic ^^"... I know it's late ;-; but I did my best ♥

Where will it take me?

Nervously he pushed his glasses further on his nose as he watched the other kids play. A desperate, lonely sigh crossed his lips as he tried to collect all his guts and play with the others. Unfortunately he never stood up for himself, nor did he have any friends. And, he guessed he never would have anyone.

With divorced parents and a runaway-sister Hyunseung never had good role models and never learnt how to stand up and speak up. The kids in class would call him nerd and as the class’ outcast they never, ever asked him to join them in their games.

As, finally, the relieving sound of the bell filled his ears he could get out of this place. Not that he felt like he had a place to go, but at home he’d be less bothered.

His tiny feet made small, but quick steps towards his house. The sooner he’d be home the better, but then something caught the little boy’s attention.

A red balloon that was swaying on the soft spring breeze, only a few meters away from him. He stopped to take a look at it, and just when he wanted to reach out his hand and grab the string the wind pulled it higher, farther away from him.

Hyunseung pouted, the balloon totally grabbing his attention. He ran after it without thinking where he was going. His hands were stretched out to have an attempt to catch the string, but unfortunately all attempts ended in failure.

But he wasn’t giving up. He kept running and running until he was forced to stop. A expression of surprise appeared on his face when he found out the balloon was caught by someone else. A slightly older boy. He held the string lightly and stared over at Hyunseung.
“Is this balloon yours?”

As always when Hyunseung would be asked something, he lowered his head and stared at his feet. “N-No…”

The boy raised his brow in confusion. “Then why were you chasing after it?”

“… Because… I liked the balloon..” Hyunseung mumbled softly.

“So… you like this balloon?”

As Hyunseung slowly nodded his head up and down the boy approached him. He was only slightly taller than the younger, so Hyunseung had to tilt his head up more to see his face. The unknown guy laid his hand on his shoulder and beamed him a slight smile.

“Then, do you want it?” He asked kindly. “I mean, since you were having such a hard time catching it? It seems you really want it right?”

Hyunseung found it surprising the guy even wanted to talk to him, wasn’t he the nerd? The one that everyone would rather avoid? But he was so nice to him that he couldn’t help but blush. “T-That would be nice.”

Then, the guy took his hand. He slowly bend his fingers one by one so he could lay the string in the centre of his hand before he clenched it to a fist again. “There, now the balloon is yours.” He said smiling.

“T-Thank you…. Ehm..”

“Doojoon.”

“D-Doojoon Hyung…” Hyunseung smiled shyly before he looked up at the balloon. “T-Thank you.”

Doojoon smiled, folding his arms on his chest. “You’re welcome… Hyun.. seung? Right?” He asked as he bend forward slightly, which was a little intimidating to Hyunseung.

“H-How do you know…”

“Name tag.” Doojoon grinned as he tapped the name tag on Hyunseung’s backpack. “The safety of elementary school supplies are useful at times.”

Hyunseung laughed softly, finding Doojoon kinda funny. “I.. I should go home now.” He held the string tightly. “Thanks again, ne Hyung..”

“Sure, don’t let it fly away.” Doojoon ruffled Hyunseung’s hair slightly, before turning around and waving the other a small good-bye.

With a slight blush Hyunseung watched Doojoon disappear in the distance. He shuffled his feet, then walked off to. A weird squeeze in his heart made clench the string of the balloon only tighter.

“Doojoon Hyung.. He was really kind.”

Time flies, without you even notice it. Hyunseung grew up fast, finally getting some friends, and a huge boost of confidence. He was just on his way to his elementary school reunion, even though his elementary years weren’t the best, he’d gotten over it now.

But then, as he was about to get onto the huge playground, a red balloon swayed in front of him.

Déjà vu..

He reached out his hand, but wasn’t able to catch it since the wind blew it away again. He raised his brow. He remembered what happened when he was a kid…. He followed a red balloon, just like that one.. and ended up meeting an unknown boy.

Doojoon.

What if he’d follow it again? Would he meet him again?

Slowly his feet started walking, step by step he came close to the balloon, but every time he reached out his hand he failed to get it. He started to run, but couldn’t keep up with the wind taking the balloon higher into the sky.

He noticed he was going for the same place he met Doojoon years ago, for some reason he felt so eager, his heart pounding rapidly as he only needed a few more steps.

Would he see him?

But, as he stopped there, he didn’t see anyone. The balloon was out of sight as well. His heart clenched, Doojoon wasn’t there. A sad chuckle left his mouth, how could he think he’d see the guy here… It was years ago, it was stupid to think he’d be there.

He kicked away a small rock in front of his feet, slightly frustrated for acting like that. Maybe it was a bad idea to come here after all. Because since the day he met Doojoon here he’d been thinking about him… Occasionally returning to the place they met.. But he was never there, so why would he be there now?

Doojoon had been his first crush, and the guy did still lived fort in a big part of his heart.

He drew a long sigh, he should probably be going to the reunion now. With his head hanging low he walked back to the gate. He felt down, would he be able to put on his best smile while meeting his ex-classmates?

When he walked on he didn’t notice someone coming from the front, making them bump per accident. Hyunseung fell down, landing on his butt. “Oww…” He groaned, his but stinging as it had just hit the bricks.

“Oh my, are you okay?” The stranger said, extending his hand at him.

Hyunseung wanted to simply nod at the stranger, but as he took the offered hand and looked up at him, his eyes widened in shock.
It was him…

Doojoon narrowed his eyes as he studied Hyunseung, but widened slightly as well. “Hey… aren’t you..”

“D-Doojoon Hyung…?”

They stared at each other for the longest time. Which seemed to take ages. Hyunseung’s bottomlip quivered, taking in Doojoon’s handsome features.

He grew up as well.. But still looked as handsome as the day they met.

Doojoon’s intense stare made Hyunseung’s legs wobbly, he felt his hands crawl up from his back to the back of his head, and before he could even realize it he felt a soft pair of lips pressed to his. For a second Hyunseung thought he was dreaming. He wrapped his arms around Doojoon’s neck and pressed himself close.

Their lips were glued together for the longest of times, words weren’t needed to know Doojoon had thought about him to.

Why else would their kiss be so sweet, yet longing?

The red balloon Hyunseung was chasing swayed over them, climbing up higher and higher.

Where does it take me?

It takes me to you.
