RUN & RUN.

루한&티파니 [ searchingdaze​ ]

Tiffany always liked getting to know people. She didn’t work in the hospital, and a luckily, nor had she ever been admitted. But that didn’t stop her from learning the names of all the nurses, the doctors, even the workers in the cafeteria--Leo always did make the most killer coffees, she tells Luhan whenever she sees him.

Making a quick stop at the nurses station to disinfect her hands, she takes both bags of noodles and clicks her way toward Luhan’s office. Right on time, she notes, glancing at her watch and knocking twice. She waited for no reply, before entering. 

홍빈&?? [ 1314am​ ]

It’s rather surprising how, at least for someone like Hongbin, one can find peace and solace in a busy cafe. He enjoyed it, regardless of the high levels of of noise that can fill the four walls that house them; the fact that quiet conversation can turn into the opposite when there were twenty or so people involved.

After he’s served the last of the morning rush, a lovely mother of two who asked for a glass of milk for her children, to which he was happy to oblige, he retrieves his textbook from under the counter. The managers always complained that there counter was more textbooks than food and Hongbin would always laugh it off. They were right, after all. No one complained, not when half of their revenue came from students that came in to swoon over his dimples. He tends to laugh that off, too, though he can’t shake the feeling that it was wrong. 

Today, he was rereading a textbook on CPR, refreshing his mind on the necessary steps to be taken if someone suffers a heart attack or, worse, within the store. Given the time and day, he thinks that leaves him at least half an hour until another order comes through. He’s made it through the passage on breathing rhythms, when someone approaches the register. 

DALENA&ALEXA [ rvsetum​ ]

When she’s finished signing in, talking to teachers and praising the principal, Dalena is allowed on campus after a brief look from security. She understood, of course, why there were so many precautions, but really, do they not know who she was. She hadn’t been gone for too long, her graduation having only passed months earlier. 

She sends a quick text to Sebastian, who, being the sole reason she was on campus, was still in class. With a pout, she assigns herself to do something else until he finishes. What was there really to do when you have no ties left to your school? She does what she always does.

She heads to the field in search of cheerleaders.

Upon arrival, Dalena finds that there is only one person on field, cheering away to a loud boombox. “Princess!” She cups her hands around her mouth to elevate her voice, and races over to Alexa. 

화사&휘인 [ 1314am ]

I have it! ( ; she says suddenly, raising her head from where it was previously leaning against wheein’s shoulder ) We should film a lookbook! Yes, I know, so original, but here me out. I’ll model looks on you instead of me! 

아이린&바비 [ blankedspaced​ ]

Irene’s favourite part of her job, without hesitation, is that brief break she gets in the morning when one of her interns runs down to Starbucks and gets the office supply of coffee. It’s gives her a chance to walk around the floor, chatting briefly with everyone before handing off the order and having ten minutes of silence to herself.

Today, she fills that silence with candy crush. As she closes level 97 with a new high score, said intern has returned with two drinks: one for her, one for their boss. “I’ll take it from here, darling” She says with a smile, opening the top drawer of her desk and pulling out her own personal stash of sugar and coffee. 

After she’s made his coffee the way that he likes it, she sprinkles a bit of fairy dust over the top. Bobby would never be able to tell and, really, what difference did it make as long as he liked it. Carrying both coffees and a pile of paperwork in her arms, she enters his office.

재환&홍빈 [ 1314am​ ]

There’s a split second of light, blinding, typically, but also soothing and then silence. The type of silence one would described as deafening, as if it were possible in the slightest. He’s not sure how long he’s been out but when he comes to, he feels an ache in his bones and there’s a tired sort of hold on his eyes. Almost like he had been asleep for an entire week.

Jaehwan always assumed that death was like falling asleep and just never waking up--you know, classic white clouds and halos and the rest welcoming me when you did. No reincarnation, no second chances. Just, death.

Instead he wakes up to a rather spacious neighbourhood, bustling, if that was possible, filled with residents alike to the one he lived in back home. Or, he did. Pushing himself off the ground, he bends slightly to brush himself off dirt until he realises that there was none. He was clean and... not covered in blood? Impossible. 

Fear was not a feeling he was accustomed to. A life he lived, there was never space for that kind of thing. So he walks around this unfamiliar neighbourhood as if nothing else mattered. Things seemed so... clean. Pristine. Put together, here. 

Beyond him, he can start to hear people. His pace quickens as he finds himself wanting to be around people and, in the crowd, a particular face stands out. All the serenity he felt upon his arrival disappears in the second that he recognises the face he followed into death. 

윤호&브라이언 [ 1314am​ ]

“Did you want some more tea?” Yunho asks, reaching over the table, pouring more into the mug before his companion. A dog cannot have tea, simply because they were a dog, but at least when his young protege arrives, it will be ready.

Speaking of which, “He’s late again” Glancing at his wrist watch, a cool little gadget that doubles as a weapon, he notes the arms ticking over into five past. Rather typical for the young agent, but Yunho can’t complain. Instead, he sips his english breakfast and converses one-sidedly with the puppy. 

세훈&티파니 [ blankedspaced​ ]

What was time, really? Just an aspect of space, a concept of movement, a passing of light. Perhaps, if she had more of it, she would be able to better figure out the path of things. Instead, she’s late for work and suffering severe caffeine withdrawals. 

Normally she would duck into the cafe near her apartment, take her time with her coffee, order a bagel if she was feeling particularly famished. Today, with white prada heels clicking the pavement below her, she instead rushes into the cafe near her office building, impatiently waiting in the long cue and contemplates what to order. 

“Latte, no foam, extra hot for this beautiful hot day. Please and thank you!” She’s chirpy as ever, even if her body lacks the fundamental element that wakes it up. Quickly pulling out her card, she swipes and moves along in a second, not at all recognising the tall barista behind the counter. 

There’s something familiar and a sort of yearning pulls her head up, narrowing her sight onto the male that has his hands around her coffee. He looked so familiar... maybe it was... “Sehun?” 

She had never really believed much in change. People you know remain the same people, regardless of time. He looked so... different. Mature, she thinks, far thinner than she remembers, taller, too. But what changed the most, she recognises in a second, is that he looked far more attuned to life than she remembered. Two years must have done him some good.
