— As a music lover you always knew to notice and appreciate when singers would dedicate their songs to their special ones.
Whether it would be out of pity, disagreements, love, appreciation, admiration and so on. So growing up made you have a knack for being extremely open to people. Through your writing of course.
When you were younger it often was a case of letters, poems and even stories at times. Yet you never thought you could write songs.
Despite your love for music, your insecurity played a huge factor in how far you thought you could get with it.
Because you loved and breathed music, but it was a lot harder to create it. You hadn’t wanted it to be meaningless. You wanted your music to have the same impact on someone else that you felt through your younger years. You wanted it to ground people in the same way it did you.
These were the thoughts you had before you became a small town but very adored artist.
You were simple really. Writing music that came from your heart and soul, that felt right to you; not following a certain trend or rhythm of anyone else. People admired that in a world where everyone desired to be the same.
You weren’t like that, you had a serene spark apart when it came to your music, especially when people knew so little about you.
And if they did get to know you they’d find that what keeps you so grounded is your childhood sweetheart, Itoshi Sae.
While it may seem like you guys are an odd pair, it made sense to the people who do know you.
You grew up as friends, first and foremost. Your parents had been close themselves so it was often that you would meet each-other. Later on you even attended the same education until highschool. And of course, started dating along the way.
It was a dream come true. You never thought of yourself as particularly charming ( Sae would thoroughly disagree ! ) but you were happy. And you had met someone who you could be happy with.
While you supported and admired Sae all throughout his career, he did the same for you. Being the object of all of your writing, your muse if you must. Enjoyably so.
So it was no surprise when Sae woke up with a bunch of messages from you from hours ago ( que the time difference ) that you had made yet another song that was to be dedicated to him. Only he would not get to listen to it immediately as you wanted it to be more special and perform it at your upcoming concert.
That soured his mood slightly. He was always the first to hear your songs. Songs that were made for him. Songs that made his heart swell with joy and admiration for you. Even as the ‘more’ famous one between you too, Sae never missed a chance to puff his chest out when it came to showing you off. He felt like the luckiest man alive to experience you. And he wanted others to know that whenever he could. Showing off your newest songs, wearing your merch in public, making the paparazzi go crazy as they tried to decipher if there was something between you two..with Sae not shutting down the dating allegations but also not exclusively confirming them, he liked this. In a country that was not his own, he was glad he could still carry his one special connection around.
So of course it was a surprise when a particular clip from one of your concerts had blown up world-wide. His first thought was that you would be immensely shocked by this, keeping in mind to listen to you rant about it next time you called, as you always did. Then he wanted to call or message you, to congratulate you and tell you how proud he felt and that he was beyond sorry for not being able to make it due to the demands of the football season he had to meet.
But one particular comment caught his eye, making him unable to move for a fraction of a second as he read it over and over.
-@user5673 : ¡Parece tan enamorada 🥲🥲 una chica solo puede soñar !! [ She looks so in love 🥲🥲 a girl can only dream !! ]
Now that made him stop. What do they mean ? He was NOT there, so how could they know about your love life.
With the other bunch of questions he had piled up in his mind he immediately searched up your full concert to check for himself why people were reacting the way they were.
And boy was he in for the biggest surprise of his life.
The first thing he noticed was how ethereal you looked. Hair adorned in the two cutest space-buns with whimsical pins all over.. along with your intricate outfit that made you look like the prettiest fairy.
Sae could not help the little laugh bubbling up his throat as he admired you. But what completely took him out was your following words..
" Hi everyone, this next song is my newest addition, and to be completely honest.. it's for my special someone, who I dearly wish was here tonight, but it's okay I know he'll still hear this. Without further ado here is 'Nobody new'.
As you start singing, the words were like little jabs at his soul, making him enticed as he listened to your tantalising and sweet voice, luring every emotion out of him, even ones he didn't know he could feel to this extent.
But he could not have been prepared for the next verse as his mouth immeditaelly drops a little, vision getting glassy without the redhead even realising.
Aquí estoy otra vez sin tu amor
Siento que me cuesta ya respirar
¿Qué más da?
Si no puedo olvidarme de ti
Pido a Dios que me haga feliz
Sin tenerte a ti..
Sae could not help but grip his phone unconciously as he replayed the verse over and over again, like he wanted it engraved in his mind as much as it was in his heart.
The next day, you were ready to call your boyfriend before an article popped up about said boy.
Announcing that : “ the one and only japanese prodigy, Itoshi Sae had been unexpectedly injured and will be regretably excused for the rest of the season.”
Before the information can even click in your head you hear the gentle and familiar knock to your door.
Which told you all you needed to know as you practically skipped to the door, unable to control your growing excitement.
There’s really no one like him is there ?
