You were late to work, and the only mode of transportation you had was the bus. To make things even worse, it was raining. Pouring, to be exact. Running to the bus stop, you went inside the small station. The cold air blowing inside didn't help much, due to your clothes being soaked. Sitting down on the bench behind you, you saw a guy sitting there with some Dr.Dre headphones, bobbing his head up and down above a notebook. Glancing at it, you pulled out your phone and put your headphones in your right ear. You were about to put in your other earbud in, when the guy poked your shoulder.

"Hey, can you ask me your opinion of this song?" He said holding out his hand. Looking at his face, his eyes were normal, and his face was round. His voice was quite low, and his blonde curly hair was peeking out from under his cap. "Excuse me?" You made a snarky remark, as you stared at him. "Uh..." He looked around and pointed to your earbuds. "I want you to listen to this song I wrote, and I need one of your earbuds." Rolling your eyes, you carefully watched him as you handed him the other bud. "Thanks!" He smiled brightly then grabbed the headphone jack and plugged it into his phone. Slightly disgusted and nervous about this stranger, you simply beared with him.

"Aug, why me? I'm already running late! Now this guy-'
"Hey! You ready?" He said cutely. Looking at his smile, you relaxed a little. Nodding, he then clicked on the song. It had an upbeat sound to it,  bass, really amazing rap, claps and a happy chorus. You had to admit, it was a pretty cool track. "What do you think so far?" "It's not bad," you said. Wanting to go back to your own music, you were about to take the headphone jack, but he played another song.

"What about this one?" He blinked at you, as you heard more voices then the previous. It was very catchy, hip-hop, eight-bit sounding song. "The first one is 'paradise' and this one is called 'Limitless'." "It's pretty good, who is it by?" you tried glancing at his phone, but he pulled away. "Hey!" He put his finger to his lips, and he leaned in and whispered into her ear.

"Promise you won't tell anyone?" Nodding fast, he chuckled then spoke softly,"NCT is the group." You have never heard of the group (pretend that u don't know them bcus youre too focus on work) and yet you were already hooked. "Wow, I wish I could meet them one day," she smiled and looked out of the station and into the rain. "You already did," he laughed. Snapping your head back at him, cocking you neck to the side. "I'm the both in both of those songs." You stood up so fast, that the earbud in his ear came out. and you lifted up his phone by the cord. "Hey! Careful!" He yelled. You sat down, slowly grabbing his phone and handing it back. "Limitless isn't ready yet, and I'm wondering what could fit in this song," he showed you his notebook. Full of Korean words, but there were spaces in between some words. "Hurry and come to me...I don't know what to put there." He sighed then he closed his notebook. Humming the tune as you waited for the bus to come, you started to get impatient. "Ho,ho, wake me up, thirsty thirsty for love~," you sang softly(lol that's awkward). The guy looked at you and he grabbed your shoulders. "Say that again!" He shook you lightly.

"Ho,ho, wake me up, thirsty thirsty for love...Why?" You looked at him and he smiled then he hugged you.


"That's it!" He wrote what you said into his notebook. "My name is Mark by the way!" Holding his hand out, you grabbed it and shook it.

"________..." Still grasping what happened.

"This is great! I don't have to go to the park to get inspired! Can I get your phone number?"

"What?"

"I mean..." He looked away as he grabbed his phone and held it in front of you. "You helped me once. You probably could help me again," He smiled. "Please~?" He said in a high pitched voice. Surprised that he may have been a different person, you sat there. "I see..." Before he pulled his phone away, you grabbed it and put your name and your number into the phone. He smiled widely, thanking you before he stepped out of the station. You never realized that the rain stopped. You received two new messages, one from Mark and one from work. You checked Mark's message.

[Thanks for helping me out! I hope we can see each other again! Have an awesome day! (^3^) (6:43pm)]

Laughing as you saw the bus about to pull up to the station. You checked the other message.

[Due to the rain, there is flooding in the area. Please do not come to work, thanks (6:42pm)]
Slightly angry, but very relieved to hear the news, you grabbed your stuff and left the station.

Few weeks later, you quit your job and you haven't heard from Mark ever since. You walked to the bus stop, and you looked up on your phone on YouTube NCT . Their song 'Limitless' came out literally a few moments ago. Clicking it, you watched it. Seeing Mark made you smile. "Whatcha' watchin?" You knew that voice anywhere. You looked to see Mark outside of the station, leaning in the entry way. "Oh, just a new music video by NCT 127," you smiled at his direction. Then a boy ran up from behind him and almost made him fall. "Hyung, is this the girl you were talking about?" He was pointing at you and staring at you slightly glaring."Ya! Don't do that Jisung! I'm trying to look cool!" He waved off his dongsaeng, and Jisung ran up to you and smiled."Don't ruin his moment Jisung!" You heard another voice. "Maknae, come here," he yelled and beckoned the kid over. "Sorry, Donghyuk hyung is calling me," Jisung ran and jumped right next to this Haechan. "Sorry that Jisung is bothering you," Haechan glares at the young one jumping up and down."What about you Donghyuk hyung? Your persona is Haechan, and yet he makes derp faces and-," the older one covered his mouth and dragged him away. Mark sighed and blushed at you.

"Are you doing anything?" You looked around and looked at Mark again. "No, just going to walk around after I get off the bus," she smiles.
"Great! Let's go one a date!" "What!" Startled to hear what he had said."I like you, whatever, let's go!" He grabbed your hand and he dragged you out of the bus station and you two ran in the bright sunlight. Things were clearly looking up to you, and it was only getting better.
