Summary: Jongdae is Yixing’s obsessed fanboy. Jongdae meets Yixing. Yixing doesn’t know who Jongdae is. Yet.
Nothing’s Impossible (part 1)
Kim Jongdae has a crush. Not on the prettiest girl in his writing class, not on the smartest (and hottest) boy in his singing class-no, Jongdae is madly in love with the dancer Zhang Yixing. Unfortunately, none of his friends even believe that Yixing exists; no one knows that he’s a famous dancer (partly because Yixing never performs where Jongdae lives). No matter how many times Jongdae talks about how amazing Yixing is, no one listens-they merely scoff and him and say, “Oh, have fun chasing after your imaginary boyfriend.”
If only Yixing is his imaginary boyfriend. At least he would have Yixing as a boyfriend, in some way or the other. Jongdae has debated the logistics of having Yixing as an imaginary boyfriend with his friend Minseok, who takes a philosophy class. It’s not an experience he’s particularly eager to repeat. Minseok had muttered something about Plato and some strange philosophy about ideal forms (Jongdae really cannot remember), then walked away saying in a rather annoyed tone of voice, “Why are you asking me this if he’s already your imaginary boyfriend?”
“But he’s not,” Jongdae had protested, to which Minseok had rolled his eyes at.
“Whatever. Have fun with your daydreaming. I’m going to find Luhan.”
Jongdae frowns sulkily whenever he remembers that scene. Easy for Minseok to say. He’s already got his own boyfriend. And Jongdae’s other two friends, Zitao and Yifan, are also dating.
Sometimes, Jongdae hates being single. He also questions his choice of friends, or maybe, he needs to get more, because he doesn’t really have that many. Perhaps he’ll get together with some other friend. Jongdae thinks up of potential partners. Kyungsoo and Jongin are madly in love with each other, and Baekhyun and Chanyeol are inseparable. Sehun is too busy chasing after Luhan (or Jongin-Jongdae isn’t quite sure, but either way, he doubts Sehun will even spare him a glance), and Junmyun is Junmyun, which means Jongdae thinks of him as a father, so it’s really weird to think of him as a boyfriend.
In other words, Jongdae is sadly going to be forever alone because the only person he wants to be his boyfriend is a famous dancer who will never know that Jongdae exists.
He really hates his life at times.

Jongdae’s hands shake as he scrolls through his dashboard on tumblr reading posts, all of them about Yixing, of course. He pauses on one specific post and reads it slowly, his amazement and shock growing as he scans the words.
Jongdae cannot believe it. He cannot believe what the post says. But right in front of him, on the screen, written in bold, colorful font, the words announcing that Yixing will be performing in a concert where Jongdae lives are clearly written.
In the next five minutes, Jongdae manages to buy a ticket for himself, a backstage pass, several I LOVE YIXING shirts and a large sign with the words YIXING IS MY LOVE on it that even flash different colors in the dark. He also considers buying several posters (so he can hang them up all over his room, including on his ceiling), but by this time, Jongdae has run out of money (backstage passes are expensive), so he settles for a small picture album.
Wait until his friends hear about this. They’ll have to admit that Yixing exists. Jongdae hums happily to himself and daydreams of meeting Yixing and Yixing falling in love with him.
After a few moments of consideration, Jongdae texts Minseok, im going to see a yixing concert in a few weeks haha i told you he exists >:D
Minseok texts back a few minutes later, go away. no matter how many times you tell me your imaginary boyfriend does not exist. now stop txting me. im busy with luhan.
"Busy," as Jongdae has learned over the course of the time Minseok and Luhan have been dating means "doing things with each other that Jongdae does not ever need or want to know about." He makes a face and turns off his phone, frowning as several disturbing images come into his mind. Ew.
Oh well. It's not like Minseok deserves to know about the godly person Yixing is. Jongdae flops onto his bed and begins daydreaming of what he's going to do when he meets Yixing (and strangely enough, he doesn't feel too disgusted imagining a few scenes when he had been grossed out imagining the same exact things between Minseok and Luhan).
Then it hits him-the realization that he, Kim Jongdae, is going to watch and meet backstage Zhang Yixing. Jongdae squeals loudly and buries his face into his pillow, flailing for a while before his mother notices the noise and comes into his room and tells him to shut up.
"Stop smiling like an idiot," she adds, and Jongdae immediately wipes the grin off of his face. Right. He can't afford to look like an idiot in front of Yixing when they meet. First impressions are very important.

The day of the concert arrives, and much to Jongdae's chagrin, Yixing has a lot of screaming fans who want to marry the dancer. More fans means more competition, and Jongdae feels despair when he realizes that the crazy fangirl next to him is wearing two more I LOVE ZHANG YIXING shirts than he is and carrying five more YIXING IS MY LOVE signs.
Moreover, when the concert ends (Jongdae stares and yells out his love at Yixing the entire time) the same fangirl next to him is also carrying a backstage pass. Jongdae narrows his eyes. Oh, it is so on. He's never going to let that fan get even a few meters close to Yixing.
He begins making a mental list of how he is going to get rid of her. The moment the backstage tour begins, Jongdae sneaks out of the concert hall out on the street and begins bringing his plan into action.
Finally, he runs through his list after five minutes. Buy wasabi peas. Check. Go backstage where they are serving free food. Check. Sneak wasabi peas into the fangirl’s food. Check. Make sure crazy fangirl eats wasabi peas. Check. Make sure crazy fangirl is rendered unconscious by wasabi peas. Check. Run over to Yixing and take possession of him before anyone else does. Check.
Wow, he really is being quite efficient at the moment. Jongdae pauses to take a few deep breaths before turning to Yixing. Unfortunately, after all the effort of attacking the fangirl with wasabi peas, Jongdae finds himself rather at a loss for words (and thinking power) when his eyes meet the beautiful brown ones of Yixing.
“Hi…” Jongdae says hesitantly, unable to get his brain to start functioning. “Um. I’m Kim Jongdae.”
“Hi Jongdae,” Yixing says cheerfully and kindly (Jongdae almost swoons). “How are you?”
“Good-ohmaigosh I’m in love with you will you marry me,” Jongdae says in a rush (finally getting his brain to work again), then realizes he sounds too imposing, so he adds, “Please?”
Yixing stares at him. “What?”
Jongdae doesn’t care that the idol of life is looking at him like he thinks Jongdae is crazy. He’s too busy staring at Yixing because holy crap his face is so adorable when it’s confused it’s not even funny and oh my freaking god Yixing is looking at me.
Yixing looks over at his shoulder at one of the directors of the show, then slowly begins backing away from Jongdae. “Um. The proposal was a bit sudden. Sorry. I’m a bit busy right now. I have to go.”
Jongdae is too dazed to realize that Yixing is gone before it’s too late. He goes home that night, still thinking of Yixing’s beautiful eyes and sighing dreamily whenever someone calls his name. Minseok stops by and scoffs at the sight of Jongdae sitting on his bed, gazing distractedly at the wall, where multiple Yixing banners and pictures are posted all over. “You are really hopeless.”
“I met him today!” Jongdae says pensively, turning to Minseok, emitting anguish from every fiber of his being. “I met Yixing today, and now I’m really sad because I’ll never see him again. He’s so perfect, but he kind of walked away when I proposed to him. But still, he’s so amazing.” The last word comes out as a fervent whisper, and Jongdae stands up, staring at the ceiling in ardent admiration.
Minseok chokes and begins coughing. “You proposed to your imaginary boyfriend?”
“He’s not imaginary,” Jongdae says, highly affronted. “Why do you think he’s still imaginary? I went to his concert! I talked to him! He obviously exists! I even poisoned a crazy fangirl with wasabi peas to get closer to him!”
“You what?”
“And I proposed to him,” Jongdae sighs, burying his face in his hands, “but he didn’t say yes.”
Minseok stares at Jongdae for a few minutes, his expression unreadable. Finally, he says (in a rather impressive deadpan), “I wonder why.”
