Minsoo: night babe, sleep tight x
Sighing softly, Minsoo slips his phone back into his pocket, having just sent his final Skype message to Danny, before the tired performer crashed for the night, well, early morning...
Lifting his dark eyes, the tattoo artist gazes up at the departures board before he sees it, Flight KA576 to Seattle there it flashes, before the gate number, and he feels his stomach drop a little. He'd gone long distance with his boyfriend, sold his car, rented his tattoo shop... yet the scariest thing for him was this flight. Flying to Minsoo, is not natural. Being rocketed up in a metal biscuit tin and flying thousands of feet in the air, by what, magic? Not his idea of a fun time... yet Danny had done it, and now it was his turn.
His arrival in the States was hopefully going to be a complete surprise for the American, Minsoo envisioned him appearing on the others door step, all ready to collect him into his arms... but really what stood in the way was a 19 hour flight and several interactions in English, that was not Minsoo's strong suit and then American immigration... after all that he might need Danny to collect him up instead.
With his visa stamped in his passport and duffel bag over his shoulder, the brave, small district Seoul boy sets off to follow countless others in finding their dreams and love in the land of the free.
What follows is nearly 25 hours of hell, queues, children screaming and trying to squish his long legs into barely adequate in-flight seating, before he arrives...
His first steps on American soil and he quickly feels like a little fish now in a big pond. There were people of every size, shape and colour shouting loudly in all sorts of languages, taxis honking, dogs barking and part of him wonders why he didn't just tell Danny he was coming! He could have picked him up! But instead, with fumbling English (despite plenty of practice with Danny), he gets into a taxi and sits back for the most expensive ride of his life... apparently he gave off that 'fresh off the boat' look.
Stepping out onto the street in front of Danny's complex, Minsoo gazes up at it with a slight frown. He doesn't really know which one is his, should he just go up there? His mind had played over this scenario so many times in his head, from romantic, emotional to down-right silly, yet the actual thing was harder to orchestrate. He thinks for a moment of just ringing him, before he remembers something Danny had said, his window looked over a park, the one behind him now, so with a confident grin Minsoo again fishes out his phone, ignores all the messages he had missed in his long journey and types.
Minsoo: I have a surprise for you. Look out your window x
