Music from the Heart [[For Mischief and SakuraLilly]]

[GodofMischief]

Grumbling under his breath slowly, a lean dark haired male made his way down the busy city streets with a light frown on his face. It hadn't been more than half an hour ago that his friends had sent him out to run an errand for all of them. One would think he shouldn't be so exasperated by it....however when his face was known throughout more than one country and his name was yelled out during a weekly basis....it was no wonder he was exasperated.

 

Lee Junho, one of the lead singers and member of the group 2pm, was not all to pleased on being forced out of the house he shared with his friends. Friends who cheerfully pushed him out simply because he had lost in a game of rock - paper - scissors on who would be the unfortunate one in having to go get the group some cafe sweets for them to indulge in. Though normally one of their managers would go buy what they needed, Junho had been unlucky enough to be chosen on the day their manager wasn't around.

 

Pushing his sunglasses further up his nose and briefly reaching up to adjust the white cap on his head, Junho looked around a bit cautiously, hoping that no one would recognize him through the disguise he wore of a casual dressed man walking down the street.

 

Stopping the cafe his manager often frequented just a block down, Junho quickened his pace a bit until he finally reached his destination. Pushing open the cafe door, Junho looked around the cafe a bit curiously before moving forward to the counter. It wasn't often he left the house without his manager, group, or security so he wanted to make this as fast and simple as he could. All he had to do was order some pastries and then he was gone and this would be all behind him.

[SakuraLilly]

(Sorry its short my phone shut off)

 

Souta sighed as he finally got a break, after the busy day. People had been coming in one after another nonstop, it was especially tiring since it was just him and the manager.

 

Hearing the bell ring as the door open he looked up to see a man wearing glasses and a white cap walking up to the counter. Standing, he smiled and gasped as he saw the one person he least expected to walk through the cafe doors. Junho Lee.

[GodofMischief]

Blinking and looking up startled when he heard a gasp, Junho quickly traced the sound to a young man that seemed to work here at the cafe. It didn't take an overly long time for Junho to figure out the reason the man had gasped. His disguise was good, he could admit to that by the simple fact that no one had seemed to be able to see through it, until now apparently.

 

Quickly weighing his options as to what he should do, Junho had a moment of panic hit him. Should he just quickly leave and let his manager pick up the pastries when the man became available. It was tempting and Junho was really inclined to do just that but he knew that his friends would never let him live it down.

 

Exhaling a heavy sigh, Junho quickly brought his finger up to his lips and made a shushing motion. One that seemed to have a hint of pleading nature in it. "I swear that I'll give you an autograph and take a picture with you if you want. Just don't make a big deal about me. All I need is to pick up a few things!" He whispered in a pleading tone of voice.

 

[[it's fine, don't worry about it]]

[SakuraLilly]

Souta instantly felt sick, as his stomach did a flip-flop and his knees went weak. Of course he had his doubts, perhaps a look alike. After all why would Junho Lee of all people, be here? But that quickly changed as the other young man brought his finger to his lips in a shushing movement.

 

"I swear that I'll give you an autograph and take a picture with you if you want. Just please don't make a big deal about me. All I need is to pick up a few things!" Junho said in a pleading tone, making Souta automatically nod.

 

"I'm so sorry for that sir! It has been such a long busy day for me that I started seeing things I shouldn't. So what can I get for you?" Souta said putting on a pair of new gloves and quickly scanning the room for anyone looking.

[GodofMischief]

Feeling his shoulders sag at the weight of his sheer relief, Junho let the breath he had been holding out before flashing the cafe employee a quick, thankful smile. Looking down at the pastries he tried to remember what was it that everyone said they had wanted when they had cheerfully waved at him from the door of their home.

 

"Can I get 8 SangTu GwaJa cookies, 10 of the twisted donuts, 12 GyeongDan, 7 Hodo Kwaja, 8 Gotgamssam, 15 Yakbap, 9 Kohng dduk, and 13 Manju?" He asked politely, making sure to keep his voice down to a low murmur and his cap lowered a bit over his face.

 

It was alot of pastries he was getting, but when you lived with 5 other guys, food never lasted. Junho was even getting some pastries for their managers and the rest of the people who worked around them, so the more the merrier. That way everyone would be happy and there was no possibility in him being sent out again.....Hopefully.

 

Taking a moment to peer up at the young man that was helping him, he shot him a small smile while adding in a softer tone "Thanks for keeping your cool, it means a lot, man".

[SakuraLilly]

Souta's mouth fell at the number of pastries he wrote down on his notepad, but he smehow managed to mutter a small, "no problem." as he search around for the many sweets. 'Alright I need to get, sangtu gawaja cookies, twisted dounuts, gyeonydan, hodo kwaja...' he thought as he listed them off one by one before realizing half of the order was already gone. Mentally groaning he ran to the back, to grab what he could, of mochi, daifuku and some melon ban, then quickly putting them in the overflowing bags.

 

Then placing the bags on the counter he, ranged up the amout. "That would be 2500 yen, please. I can't belive you're getting all that, it must be tough eatting all those. If your aren't careful you might gain some weight." he finished jokingly before blushing a deep shade of red.

[SakuraLilly]

(Oops sorry I forget this)

 

"I'm sorry we didn't have your full order so I added some stuff. Was that okay?" If not I can take them out..."

[GodofMischief]

Smiling at the man, Junho pulled out his wallet and handed him on of his debit cards. "Believe it or not, I'm not actually going to eat all these. I'll be lucky if I get a few. These are to feed my kids" he chuckled, his laughter filled eyes were hidden behind his dark sunglasses but anyone could tell he was just messing around. He couldn't help it though, there were times he really thought of his friends as his kids...or his wives or moms with their nagging.

 

Chuckling at the deep blush the other man sported, Junho gave him a little careless shrug while saying "It's fine, thank you. You did the best you could...they'll just have to eat what I bring them". He could see the other man must have been a mix of nervous and excited, honestly it was cute and Junho was impressed that the man was managing to hold it together so well.

 

Looking around a bit at the other people there, Junho turned back to the man and tilted his head to one side curiously. "Is there anything you'd like my autograph on? And where would you want to take the picture?" He asked. It was obvious he had been serious about what he had said earlier if the man held back the knowledge that Junho Lee was in the cafe. He was thankful and he was determined to pay the man back.

[SakuraLilly]

Trying to holding in his laughter, he hid it behind a big grin as not to draw attention to themselves. "Well I hope you can at least try the daifuku...its the most popular of our pastries, mostly because of our surprise." he said his blush almost instantly disapering into a slight pink.

 

Then leaning closer he grabbed a pen and ripped out a fresh page of his note pad. "As for the autogragh, can you just put it here? I dont need a picture, seeing how I would most likely remember this for the rest of my life..."

[GodofMischief]

"Surprise? See now you've sparked my interest. Is this surprise going to be harmful to me in anyway? I mean, I'll definitely try the Daifuku, as long as it doesn't lead to my untimely death or the loss of my voice. If that happens, I'm afraid you'll have alot of unhappy fans at your business doors, my good sir" Junho said with a grin of his own. He was teasing the other young man, that was for sure but he was also sure to keep it light. Where he would go all out on the other members of 2pm, he didn't want to frighten or intimidate this employee. He had to try and keep his image intact after all.

 

Grabbing the pen gently from the other man's grip, Junho looked over at him and said playfully "Remember this for the rest of your life? My, I didn't know I had such a dire effect on people....Just make sure if you ever get a chance to run into the others, you don't tell them you said that. They might get a tad bit jealous....more so Junsu and Wooyoung". Looking down, Junho prepared to write down a cute little note as part of his autograph but paused and looked up curiously again. "Who am I addressing this too? Sorry I didn't ask earlier" he said softly with a sheepish smile adorning his features.

[SakuraLilly]

"Oh! I'm sorry! My name is souta. I-I mean you can address it with souta." he said giving him a dreamy smile. "As for the daifuku I can't really tell you the surprise. But seeing how my boss wouldn't be happy about angry fans I'll give you a hint, its sweet....and a fruit, so" he finished with a shrug, his fingers pulling on the heam of his shirt.

 

"Also I don't think anyone else would get that jealous...mostly because I don't get out much. But I guess I could understand if it was anyone else, from the group...."

[GodofMischief]

Unable to stop another smile from twitching up the corners of his lips, Junho looked back down at the paper and quickly wrote something down.

 

"To the coolest pastry guy and my dearest fan, Souta"

 

Below that he signed his name and quickly passed the note back to the other male with a kind "There you go".

 

Blinking thoughtfully behind his sunglasses, Junho chuckled saying "As for the daifuku, that's a vague hint. I'll just take your word and hope for the best. If you say it's good, and you work here, then there's no way you're lying".

 

Tilting his head curiously when Souta said he didn't go out much, Junho felt his compassionate nature swell a bit more. Reaching into an inner pocket of his light jacket, the man produced a pair of tickets he had for their next concert. Figuring he wasn't really going to use them for anything, he slipped them to Souta under the autograph he had given him. "Life is meant to be enjoyed, Souta. Take this as a little gift for helping me out tonight. The concert is in two days, invite a friend if you want" Junho told him gently.

 

Feeling his phone vibrate in his pocket, Junho sighed and pulled it out. Knowing who it most likely was without even having to look, he grinned at Souta as he took his bags. "Sorry, the wife and kids are calling. I'm probably violating my curfew by being out so long" he said playfully. Swiping his finger over the screen, Junho paused from bringing the phone to his ear for a moment. Instead he turned to Souta saying "I hope you have a good rest of your day, Souta".

 

With that he turned on his heel and headed out of the store. His amused answer of "Yes sweetheart?" To his phone call was the only sound behind him as he turned and headed back down the street he had come from.

[SakuraLilly]

(Sorry, it seem that what I wrote yesterday got deleted)

 

"Oh! I'm sorry. My name is souta, I-I mean you can address it to souta..." he said with a dreamy smile. "As for the surprise I can assure you its nothing like that...but seeing how angry fans wouldn't be very good for business, I'll give you a hint. Its really sweet itself...and its a fruit..."

 

"And I wouldn't be so sure about meeting the others by chance...mostly because I rarely get out. Of course except for your concerts and this job." he finished with a light chuckle.

(Oh my god! Ok please forget what I posted. I'll quickly write something)

[SakuraLilly]

Souta sighed as he crunch collapsed on the counter. Not only had he met the one and only junho lee, but he had a small conversationwith him and got some tickets too. He even got an autograph.

 

Stuffing the tickets in his back pocket, he set off to work, washing off the tables and taking orders, with only one thing on his mind, who to take with him. Finally some of the other staff workers come, ending his shift. Quickly he set off to his apartment, phone in a hand calling his sister.

[GodofMischief]

[[Haha, it's alright. Don't worry about it. I'm going to do a little time skip to the concert if that's alright with you.]]

 

Standing backstage with the rest of the group, Junho did a few stretches while the sound of their eager audience grew louder. "Do you think we're going to blow their minds tonight?" Chansung asked from where he stood beside him. "I think we have a good chance. I mean considering we're going to do some shirt ripping, sensual movements, acrobatics and we have that surprise for those two lucky fans at the end of the night.....I'm sure we'll do fine" Junho chuckled and performed his famous eye smile for his best friend.

 

"Guys, we're on in 10. Let's get this show on the road!" Junsu called out to them from a little further backstage where he stood with Wooyoung, Nichkhun, and Taecyeon. "Let's have some fun tonight!" Junho exclaimed and bounded over with a laughing Chansung at his heels.

 

The chanting of the audience and their excited screams when 2pm finally appeared on stage was always a warm welcome to each member. In a way, it was almost like coming home everytime they had a concert. Never ones to let their loved fans down, the group performed song after song to perfection. From Heartbeat to I'll be back, from My house to Only You....every song they sang and move they made was for their audience.

 

By the end of it, the group basked at the screams around them as they stood side by side on stage. A few shirtless while others wearing only thin white skeleton shirts that did little to hide their torsos. "Did we all have a great time tonight!" Taec's voice called out through the microphone, gaining more enthusiasm screams.

 

"Now I know we all hate to do this, but it's time to say goodnight. It's been awesome and we love each and every single one of you!" Junho raised his mic to say as they waved at their fans. Waiting for a moment for the noise to die down again he added "At the beginning of this concert I know you were all asked to pull a slip of paper out of a box at random. Two of you out there have very lucky numbers on those papers".

 

"We want you to go ahead and open those slips now. If you have the numbers of 249 and 876, then congratulations! You're the lucky winners of our raffle! We'll meet you two backstage as soon as you bring those tickets towards our stage crew upfront. For the next 3 days, you two will be welcome to tag along with us and have a premium look into the life of 2pm!" Chansung called out with a grin.

 

"We look forward to meeting our lucky winners in just a few minutes! For the rest of you! We love you and and have a good night!" Nichkhun's voice was next to sound off. As a group, Junho and the others took their bow before doing a few more waves and vanishing backstage.

[SakuraLilly]

Souta and his sister, megumi stood in their spots, shout/singing along with everyone else, dancing along a few times too. Soon after the concert was over, as junho asked them to check their slips of paper they got in the beganing.

 

"I-I got 371...megumi what about you? Souta asked his heart sinking as he held the paper out.

 

"Oh nii-chan! I got it! 249!" Megumi nearly shouted. "Of course...since you're basically obsessed with them...I'll let you have it."she finished handing it over. "But I'm going backstage with you, I want to see them."

 

Giving megumi a hug the two set off to the back

[GodofMischief]

Plopping down on a few chairs provided for them backstage, Junho sighed in relief as a fan was placed in front of them and one of their make-up artists started dabbing the sweat from his face and neck. Sitting beside him, the rest of the group all enjoyed the same leisure time they could get to finally relax after an upbeat concert. They were exhausted and wanted nothing more than to get in the van and go back home but they still had work to do.

 

"Guys, your fans are here.....Though there seems to be three instead of just two" their Manger called out to them.

 

"That's fine, the more the merrier. Bring them over!" Junho called back to him, gratefully taking a water bottle from Wooyoung and taking a sip of it before passing it to Chansung who leaned against him.

 

Wondering who had recieved the winning tickets, Junho leaned back in his chair and exchanged a few words with his friends as they waited for their lucky fans to finally reach them.

[SakuraLilly]

Walking arm and arm down the hall, following one of the staff members the siblings made some small talk to the other girl won.

 

Finally reaching the room the staff member threw open the door. "Boys your guest are here!" she chirped gesturing them inside. "Say hello!"

 

Scanning the room, souta's eyes landed on junho before dropping to his feet. "Hello"

[GodofMischief]

Looking up from glancing at something on his phone, Junho's ready smile faltered a moment when he noticed the familiar face of the boy from the cafe. Though he hadn't spoken too heavily with him, Junho was good at remembering faces quite easily.

 

Greeting the three guests with his friends, all sharing the same enthusiasm and smiles, Junho flickered his gaze back to Souta and smiled his typical eye smile.

 

"So you made it after all....and you even managed to get a lucky number. Nicely done! " he said with cheerful friendliness.

 

"Do you know him, Junho?" Chansung asked curiously as he dropped an arm around the other singer's shoulders.

 

"He's the guy from the bakery" Junho informed them.

 

"Ooohhh, the guy Taec and Channie want to marry?" Junsu asked playfully.

 

"That would be him" Junho laughed as Chansung rolled his eyes amused and Taec tried to pout at being put on the spot.

 

"You guys are gonna scare the poor kid, give him a break" Nichkhun's calm yet equally amused voice cut in as he shook his head at his friends antics.

 

Turning to look at their guests again, he gave them a polite little smile while saying "Why don't you guys introduce yourselves? Junho might know one of you but we would all love to hear your names".

[SakuraLilly]

Souta blushed slightly at the joke, but nodded and smiled at his sister, "I'm Souta and this is my sister Megumi. Its nice to meet you all." he said copying Megumi with a small bow.

 

The girl next to them frowned as all the attention was on Souta, "And I'm Naomi. I'm a huge fan!" she said with a bright smile.

 

Clapping her hands to get everyone's attention, the staff member started to hand out pens and paper. "Ok, now that that's settled I want you all to sign these then you guys can get started."
