Saw You in a Dream, reebye
Seungmin thinks the universe is messing with him.
From sending one of his soulmates best friends into his life to making him forget details from his dreams that could help him find the other to making them just miss each other at every opportunity they have to meet, it would be a fair assumption that the Universe has a personal vendetta against him.But the universe can't be that bad - not when he was given a soulmate like Changbin.

“Do you ever think,” Changbin begins, brow furrowing. “Do you ever think about if the timing had been different we might have been in the same group?”Seungmin stares at him. The truth is that, yes, in the deepest of nights when he can’t sleep, he rolls from his side to his back and stares at the ceiling, mind racing with alternate realities where maybe he and Changbin train together, the goal of debut in both their sights. Maybe he and Changbin debut together, harnessing that electric energy between them to perform under the flashing lights. Maybe they raise their first trophy together, sharing a look of triumph from across the stage.“Let’s face it, hyung,” he says instead, “we probably would have killed each other.”

Seungmin lived in a world where each person had a phrase tattooed on their body from birth, this phrase was what connected you to your soulmate, it was how you learned that a certain person was your true love. Seungmin’s tattoo was located on his forearm and said: ‘That’ll be ₩11,520.’ Every time Seungmin ordered something at a restaurant, cafè, or anywhere else his heart started pounding until he received his total but it was never the same amount that was written on his arm. All his life people had constantly asked him about his mark, what it said, had it been said yet, is he excited to hear it said. Seungmin never understood why soulmate marks were such a big deal until he heard the words spoken to him.

Seungmin lets out a tiny squeak but nods regardless, taking in Changbin’s intense stare. Changbin removes his arm from around Seungmin’s waist slowly, bringing both of his hands up to cover his face for a moment.

“It’s almost 2,” he said, glancing at his wrist watch and then at the window where the midnight sky was in view. “The stars.”Everybody rushed outside, eager to witness the shooting stars, each one of them hopeful to be able to cast a wish skyward.

Fuck, Seungmin thinks, nursing his throbbing head as he fills the coffee pot with water. He's ticked off because it's like Changbin didn't even think that Seungmin might have wanted to see him and give him a proper goodbye before he jetted off halfway across the world again.To be fair, that's what the farewell party from the previous night was supposed to be, but still. Still.A more proper form of goodbye feels warranted after he'd put Changbin up at his apartment for almost a week. He deserves as much for being a generous friend and a gracious host, he thinks. And when he looks in the pantry and realises that he's all out of ground coffee, he knows for sure that it really isn’t going to be a good day.He blames Changbin.--or: Seungmin and Changbin are childhood friends separated by dreams of tomorrow.

“You’ve got an admirer, Minnie.”Jisung chokes on their pop. The treat drops into their pizza but they ignore it as they stand up, their chair emitting an awful scraping sound with the force they push it back. They jab a finger in Seungmin’s direction, eyes comically wide, and exclaims, “Him?!” at the same time that Seungmin disbelievingly asks, “Me?” in a quieter voice.“Who are they?” Seungmin tries to appear uninterested, but he can’t help the way he immediately scans the rink in hopes of seeing the person Hyunjin was talking about.His friend rests a hand on his shoulder and leans in close, gesturing vaguely to his right. “The person with dark blue hair and the bright blue tank-top.”—————Or the one where Seungmin and Changbin meet at a skate rink and suddenly the universe keeps shoving them together and maybe they fall in love along the way.

Seungmin is frustrated. He had even been warned by Chan: you're too sheltered for the outside world right now, your highness.He refused to listen because Seungmin would like to think that despite growing up with golden opportunities served to him on multiple silver platters, he still has a pretty sensible head on his shoulders. If anything, he'd like to think that growing up privileged has made him more than painfully aware that people around him are seldom to be trusted. So he didn't listen, and pushed through with his haphazard plans – which really should have given him more pause, because he normally prefers plans to be clear and organized. But he wasn’t thinking like he normally does, and for once in his life, he followed instinct instead of logic.Except all that trouble, and for what? Now he’s just frustrated because Chan was right, he’s an idiot, and presently he has ended up on a ridiculous quest to obtain his most prized possession back – which he never would have lost if he had done what he usually does, and played his part as the good, sensible prince.Alternatively; In which Seungmin tasks the thief who stole his most prized possession to accompany him in its retrieval.

But when Seungmin finally sorts out his feelings and plans an elaborate confession, Changbin has absolutely no idea what he’s supposed to be doing—or that the confession is even a confession, because he can’t figure out Seungmin’s cryptic clues.(Changbin just wanted someone to split the cost of an apartment with.

If he could back out of or postpone this trip he would have already done so.“Only you and me,” Changbin keeps going. “On this drive.”“Shut up,” Seungmin mumbles, shaking head and marching off to the passenger side of the car. “This is for Hyunjin.”“For Hyunjin,” Changbin echoes as he slides into the driver's seat. “Right.”Seungmin doesn't know how he's supposed to survive the next few days with just his ex-boyfriend as his company, in a cramped car at that, but as with most things - it is what it is, so he just has to figure out how to deal.--or: Hyunjin is getting married, and Seungmin & Changbin get stuck on a trip togetherPart 2: Press the Pedal
