Summary: Taehyun wears a hat that brings him to meet a boy with a bright smile named Seungyoon. And it changes every feeling Taehyun has ever had.
Author's Note: It's my first attempt on making a chaptered fic. I was listening to Akdong Musician's 'Hair Part' when I suddenly remember how Seungyoon wears his fedora hat a lot and Taehyun's 5:5 hair. I hope you like this fic. Feel free to leave a comment and constructive criticism. Thank you.
Taehyun has always liked sitting alone at the park in the afternoon, especially when he needed to read a book, or simply just wanted to have some quality ‘me time’. It was the same this afternoon. He sat on one of the benches at the park, reading a book titled ‘History of Music’. There were a few kids playing on the playground, some people bringing their pets to walk, some grandmas happily talking about their youth. Taehyun enjoyed it.
“Nice hat.” said an unfamiliar voice.
Taehyun looked up from his book and saw a boy, with a fedora hat on top of his head and a bright smile on his lips, looking right at him.
“Uh? Thanks?” Taehyun replied, giving a little smile and quickly going back to his book.
“I have one like that,” the boy continued, ”only a different color.”
Taehyun looked up again, ”good to know." he gave a forced smile this time, and went back to his book again.
“I like hats. They warm me in winter, they protect me from the sun in summer, or they are just simply a solution for when I have a bad hair day.” the boy said again, still smiling.
Taehyun looked up to the boy once more, annoyed. “Firstly, who are you? Secondly, why are you talking to me?”
The boy smiled even brighter. “My name is Seungyoon. Kang Seungyoon. I have a hat that's similar to yours.” he sat beside Taehyun, ”that looks good on you.”
Taehyun sighed, ”well, Kang Seungyoon, thank you. Now, would you please leave me alone? I need to concentrate on this book due for my test tomorrow.”
Seungyoon laughed, ”okay, I’ll leave you here. Good luck on tomorrow’s test, uhm, Nam Taehyun?”
Taehyun was surprised when Seungyoon mentioned his name, ”how do you know my name?”
Seungyoon smiled as he got up and fixed his fedora hat, ”how? Maybe because it’s written on your book’s cover?” he said, pointing at Taehyun’s book.
Taehyun looked down at his book’s cover, and there it was, ‘Nam Taehyun’ written on it. His face turned red in embarrassment and he tried to look away.
“Unless you borrowed it from someone, it wouldn't have your name on it. But I think that’s yours.”
Taehyun didn’t reply.
“Anyway, see you when I see you, Nam Taehyun.” and with that, Seungyoon left..
Taehyun continued reading his book, but he couldn’t completely concentrate on what he was reading; he kept thinking about that boy.
***
“What’s his name again?” Seunghoon asked, without looking up from his phone screen.
“Kang Seungyoon.” Taehyun said.
“I know him,” Mino said with a mouth full of rice, ”he does art as a major. He takes mostly the same subjects as I do.”
Taehyun and Mino are best friends since elementary, Seunghoon joined their friendship since high school, and they three have been best friends until then. They sat in the cafeteria the day after Taehyun met Seungyoon. Taehyun didn’t have any reason not to to tell his best friends about his first meeting with Seungyoon.
“Oh? You never told me.” Taehyun looked at Mino, his eyebrows lifted up in curiosity.
“Do I have to?” Mino laughed.
Taehyun scoffed.
“Well, he’s nice. He has good grades, too.” Mino continued.
Taehyun waited for Mino to continue but he didn’t. “Is that all? Is that all you know about him?”
“I think so…I don’t really interact with clever people, you know.” Mino grinned.
“I think I know this person who you’re talking about,” Seunghoon finally looked up from his phone, ”you know Kim Jinwoo?”
Taehyun turned to Seunghoon, ”Yeah, I meet him every Tuesday and Friday for vocal class. What about him?”
“I know Jinwoo because he joined our dance additional class for students outside of the dance faculty. I see him often with this person you guys are talking about.” Seunghoon explained. He continued looking at his phone after that.
“Does he take the additional class, too?” this time Mino was the one who was curious.
“Nope. Why are you asking? I thought it was Taehyun who interested in him.” Seunghoon said.
“It’s not like I’m interested. From the way I see him, I don’t think he is someone who can dance. He looks stiff.” Mino replied as he tried to figure what Seungyoon looked like in his head.
Seunghoon laughed, ”everyone can dance - it’s only how they do it that become the differences.”
Taehyun laughed, ”said by a dance mentor from a dance faculty. Quite believable,” he paused, ”are you sure it was him?”
“Yeah. I heard Jinwoo called him ‘Seungyoon’ a few times, when they meet after the additional class. Seungyoon comes quite often.”
“Why am I the only one who never sees him among us?” Taehyun frowned.
Seunghoon and Mino laughed.
“Why are you so upset?” Seunghoon asked as he kept laughing.
Taehyun scoffed, ”I’m not. I just can’t believe at the fact that this person is a completely stranger to me but my best friends actually know him,” he added, ”and why the hell did he show up and talk about hats to me yesterday?!”
“It was just him being nice. I told you, he is a nice person. Everyone seems like him.” Mino said. He patted Taehyun’s shoulder.
“Now that you’ve added ‘everyone’ makes it seems like I’m the only one who doesn’t know him.” Taehyun sighed.
Mino laughed again,”sorry.”
“Well, you know him now.” Seunghoon chuckled.
Taehyun sighed again and got up, ”anyway, I’m off to class now. See you guys later.”
“Okay!” replied both Mino and Seunghoon.
***
“You are Nam Taehyun, right?” A boy asked Taehyun as soon as he reached the class.
Taehyun turned to look at the boy and smiled, ”yes, I am, and you are Kim Jinwoo.”
Jinwoo smiled back.
“You take Mr. Han’s history class, too, now?” Taehyun asked, because it was Thursday and he usually didn’t meet Jinwoo outside of vocal class.
“No,” Jinwoo shook his head, ”I need to give you something-” he opened his backpack and gave Taehyun a sheet of paper with a drawing on it.
Taehyun took the paper and he couldn’t be more surprised about the drawing that was on it. It was himself, at his favorite park, sitting on a bench and reading a book. It was literally the exact thing he did yesterday afternoon at the park, with the exact same outfits and hat. Taehyun looked up back to Jinwoo. His eyes looked like they were ready to fall out of his head. “Who did this?”
“Just take it. You’ll know. I need to go! Bye, see you tomorrow at vocal class!” Jinwoo left quickly before Taehyun could say anything.
Taehyun looked to the paper again and spotted some initials: KSY, written on the edge of the paper. He choked and laughed a little as he saw there was also a phone number below the name.
Who the hell is ‘KSY’? Could this be…Kang Seungyoon?
***
“I gave it to him.” Jinwoo said as he tried to catch a breath after running.
Seungyoon, who had waited at the field, got up in excitement, ”you did? Thank you, man! You are the best!” he patted Jinwoo’s back.
“Whatever, you owe me a drink.” Jinwoo said, giggling mischeviously.
Seungyoon laughed, ”okay, you’ll get your drink later,” and he continued, ”how was his reaction?”
“He looked surprised. I can’t tell if it was a good or bad surprise,” Jinwoo answered, ”he looked quite impressed, but at the same time, kind of creeped out?”
“Creeped out?!”
“Yeah. Who wouldn't be creeped out if someone gave them a drawing of them from a stranger?” Jinwoo sat.
“You gave it to him and you're literally his classmate. You guys know each other; you're not a stranger.” Seungyoon sat back, too.
“You are the one who asked me to give it to him. And they're your initials written on it.”
Seungyoon sighed, ”I hope he likes it,”
“He will. He is not that bad,” Jinwoo patted Seungyoon’s shoulder and added, ”he might be not too friendly to some people, at first. But he is actually nice. He smiled at me earlier.”
Seungyoon nodded.
“I added your number below your name, by the way.” Jinwoo said, chuckled.
Seungyoon turned to look at Jinwoo, ”huh- you what?”
“I added your number below your name. It would be great if he-“
“Why did you do that?” Seungyoon panicked. He raised his voice.
“Hey, calm down! It’s not like he'd hate you for it. We’ll see if he interested in you or not. If he was, he would just text you, if not…yeah, you know,”
“Calm down? It will make me look like an idiot.”
“I’m helping you here, remember? You were asking me about that boy all night long, last night. This is what I do so that you can stop whining and get to know him by yourself.” Jinwoo said.
Seungyoon ruffled his hair and then rubbed his face, ”I’m doomed.”
Jinwoo could only grinned and said, ”it will be okay.”

Later that night, after Seungyoon finished taking a shower, he checked his phone - there was a message from an unknown number:
Thurs 10 Apr, 9:21pm
Hey, KSY. Thanks for the drawing, but I need to know who you are. Can we just meet up? - Nam Taehyun
