Choi Seunghyun, An Angel

Choi Seunghyun x american!fem!reader

Summary: An American girl, fresh off a move to Korea, finds herself lost in the bustling Seoul train station when she collides with a mysterious man concealing his identity. Unbeknownst to her, it's none other than Choi Seunghyun of Bigbang. For Seunghyun, it’s love at first sight- she’s like a fallen angel.

Warnings: nothing really- maybe a bit angst

Your black ankle boots, shining in the bright light, stepped onto the cold, slightly stained floor of the crowded Seoul train station. It was a huge chaos, even worse than in your home country, everyone seems to be in a hurry, they run wildly into the crowds, squeeze through and separate families from each other, they push each other, shoulder to shoulder. They were also unapologetically loud. Considering that you only entered South Korea five minutes ago, you were able to learn a lot about the people who live here in this short time, which wasn't bad, just... a little different to what you're used to.

But that might even be a good thing, because that was exactly the reason why you left your home country, you were looking for variety, new surroundings, new people and that's exactly what you found here. As your warm palms glided over the cold stone of the old stone wall of the train station, your body leaned forward to look down at the people below you, a small smile crossed your lips, the nervousness you had previously felt weighing on your shoulders disappeared a little, and a warm feeling crawled along your stomach.

Unbeknownst to you, on the lower floor, conspicuous in the black coat that covered his figure, with a hood pulled over his head, eyes lowered to the ground, was Choi Seunghyun, a fairly well-known person in Korea, due to many things but mainly known by the stage name T.O.P in a well-known band called bigbang, strolling and squeezing himself between the hectic people.

He hurried past everyone with quick steps, thinking he would make it through without being recognized by anyone and thus attracting all the attention. His body was tense and his breathing was rapid as he made it to the stairs before he ran them up with quick steps, past a couple who were hugging each other wildly, reunited after a long time, before he finally made it up to the upper floor. He almost made it, but before he could even make it any further he collided with a smaller body with force.

A gasp of surprise escaped the other person, the two pink suitcases to the right and left of the person rolled back a bit from the impact, with Seunghyun's eyes squeezing shut for a brief moment before he looked up, ready to apologize before stopping. Your eyes widened a little because you were not expecting this impact, you were just about to walk away from the pillar and didn't look ahead because one of your two suitcases had a wheel that wasn't rolling so well, which was why you were a little distracted and didn't see the person coming towards you.

Seunghyun's figure freezed as he got a look from the person he ran into. His hands, which were raised to apologize until just a moment ago, dropped to hang limply at his sides, fingers open. He didn't even notice how his mouth opened a crack and how hard it was for him to breathe normally when your eyes met. It felt like he was rushed away from the sight of you. Your beauty. His mouth felt dry and his eyes blinked slowly, not too much so he wouldnt miss a second of looking at you, and he didn't even notice how his hood slowly slided down his head, revealing his wild brown hair.

Without him being able to do anything, his eyes wandered as if by themselves, first he noticed your big eyes, which reflected the bright light of the train station that hung above the two of you, making your eyes seem even brighter and shinier. Then to your eyebrows, which framed your eyes perfectly, then to your cheeks, where he could see the slight blush, either from excitement or stress, then down to your nose, which had a very cute shape, down to your lips, where he could see the pink shine of lip gloss, which caused a tingling sensation in his chest, and without noticing, he ran his tongue over his own lips.

"Oh gosh-" the movement of your lips made him look into your eyes again, a crushing feeling built up in his chest when he heard your soft voice. "I'm so so sorry." Your upper body leaned forward a little, a movement you have often seen in Korean films, which shows respect for the other person.

His hands uncontrollably placed themselves on your shoulders to stop you, his touch soft and his eyes briefly closing as he caught a whiff of your sweet perfume. He exhaled shakily as you looked at him with wide eyes before his hands fell to his sides again as he cleared his throat. "No, it's okay. It was my fault." He tried to answer in broken English as he tried to control his breathing.

A small grin crossed your lips after his sentence, unaware of how you were making him feel as you bowed again briefly, your self-made curls slipping over your shoulder on the right side, without noticing how his eyes were drawn to your now smiling lips. "I'm Y/n." You pronounced the Korean words a little uncertainly, but with a surprisingly good pronunciation.

Seunghyun felt like he was about to pass out when he heard your good pronunciation as he swallowed hard. His thumb unknowingly turned over the ring on his index finger, a nervous habit. "Nice to meet you. I'm Choi Seunghyun." He also bowed a little, whereupon the smell of his perfume slipped into your nose, and you were surprised to find that he smelled pretty good.

There was a brief silence between you two and you took the time to look at him too, somehow he seemed familiar to you as if you had seen him somewhere before but you couldn't think of what it could be. Admittedly you couldn't help but check him out because he looked really good, tall and handsome. The first thing you noticed about him were his piercing brown eyes and that little dimple smile he was giving you and you couldn't stop that warm feeling inside you when he looked at you with that look that you couldn't really interpret.

You looked at him uncertainly, your head tilted up a little to be able to maintain eye contact since he was quite a bit taller than you, your facial expression neutral and polite but enough to turn Seunghyun into a nervous wreck. He was surprised at himself because he usally wasn't like that at all. Sure, he was always a bit more cautious and respectful around women but he had never behaved like he did now. He almost thought that it was embarrassing how nervous a woman that he didn't even know, made him and how there was nothing he would rather do at that moment than to feel your shiny, soft lips on his.

Just this thought caused a pinch of goosebumps to run up his neck and a shaky breath to escape from the crack of his lips. He didn't understand what this feeling was inside him that burst out when you just looked at him but he couldn't help but want more of it, your eyes on him.

The collision of a shoulder with yours made you take a step forward in surprise, closer to Seunghyun, who now seemed to have awakened from his trance as his dark eyes took in the silhouette of the man who just kept running without apologizing to you. His jaw clenched irrationally as he realized where you were, in the middle of a crowd full of people who didn't pay any attention to others to not miss their trains and yet he seemed to have briefly forgotten that other people existed besides you.

Other people seemed to have seen the brief incident, whereupon the attention of a few people wandered to the two of you, with a few of their eyes widening slightly. "Hey! Isn't that T.O.P!?" The person's voice rang out barely perceptibly through the loud talking of all the people, fingers pointed at Seunghyun, whereupon heads turned in their direction and immediately they squeezed through people to get to him.

Seunghyun's gaze dropped, his head pressed against his chest, his eyes squeezed shut as he cursed to himself, his body immediately tensing again and alarm bells going off. He knew this would happen sooner or later, but he had hoped it wouldn't happen now with you here.

Your eyebrows furrowed as your gaze turned to the girl, now a few meters away from you, before you looked back at Seunghyun, who was now talking to himself in his own thoughts, but whatever he was thinking, he had already decided when his fingertips quickly, yet gently and carefully wrapped around your wrist, while the other grabbed the pink suitcase to the left behind you and pulled you along without further thought, taking your second suitcase with you out of reflex, your eyes wide open.

"What-" You couldn't speak any further as he moved through the crowd, some shoulders bumping into yours, whereupon you apologized to everyone you ran past, heads turned in your directions and the girl who had drawn attention to Seunghyun tried to run after you as she screamed for him, but she got lost in the crowd.

His grip on your wrist was firm and secure as he led you out into the fresh air, to the right in a small alley where it was quieter, away from all the people. Meanwhile, your gaze slid around the surroundings, the first time in Korea and something like this happened to you. You couldn't help but wonder if this was normal here.

"What was that?" When you stopped, you were both out of breath, a burning sensation in your chest and you desperately needed something to drink after that little marathon you had run. His grip moved away as you leaned against the cold stone wall behind you, your head thrown back slightly and your chest dropped rapidly. The sun shone down on you, your hair took on a sheen of the sun and your skin shone brightly.

Seunghyun's breathing calmed down again as he leaned against the wall opposite you, a few meters between you now, as he looked at you silently, eyes wandering, and as you stood there, out of breath, hair still falling perfectly down your shoulders and the sun shining down on you, he couldn't think anything else but:

An Angel.

There was no other explanation for it. You had to be a fallen angel, there was no other way that you could have had such an effect on him even though he didn't even know you.

Your eyes opened when you got no answer, only to meet his piercing gaze. Slowly you stood up straight, a little embarrassed that he had been watching you like that, before tilting your head slightly. You couldn't make sense of him, normally you would feel fear in such a situation, you didn't know him, he just took you with him and now you were alone with him... but somehow you seemed to feel anything but fear in his presence. It was strange, and you couldn't explain why you didn't feel fear but only warmth and comfort.

"Can you explain to me why you did that?" Your voice was a little more cautious than before. Speaking whole sentences in Korean was still a little difficult for you. Before you decided to move to Korea, you studied for months so that you could communicate proberly, but you were still a little unsure and still had a lot to learn. Seunghyun, on the other hand, couldn't help but be impressed by your good pronunciation, which only made his thoughts about you worse. He couldn't believe how you came across so perfectly. He was sure that he came across like a fool and that you were secretly making fun of him.

He remained silent for a moment, unsure of what to answer, he didn't want you to think wrong of him but on the other hand he liked being in the presence of someone who didn't know him for his fame, but for his true self.

But then he sighed, throwing his head back, his gaze slid to the sky, he swallowed slightly, causing his Adam's apple to move and you held your breath as you watched him silently, waiting for what was to come, yet patient, because you could clearly see that whatever he was going to say to you was not as easy for him as you first thought.

"Uhm... hard to say. It's-" His hands ran through his hair, ruffling it even more, and he only now noticed how fast his heart was actually beating. Why, he didn't understand. It was strange, because he was famous after all and that never really bothered him until that was all that mattered and nothing else, at least for the other people who knew him. "It's complicated, you know?"

But is wasn’t. It was actually quite simple, he just didn't want to leave the little bubble he had created with you in the last ten minutes. It was pretty naive of him to think that he could ignore the big deal and pretend to be someone else. He didn't even know if he would ever see you again after today and just that thought made his face frown and his shoulders slump.

Somewhat confused but thoughtful, your eyebrows rose as you took slow steps toward him before leaning your shoulder against the wall his back was leaning against. A small smile formed on your glossy lips as he turned his head to the side to look at you, his head slightly lowered to look you in the eyes and for a moment it remained silent. He blinked slowly as he studied your features, and you could feel a certain heat on your cheeks, this time quite clear about how he was looking at you.

"Why don't you try to explain it to me? I'm sure I would understand." Your head is now leaning against the wall as well as you look up at him, your eyes wandering from his eyes to his lips before pausing briefly when you catch a glimpse of a small smile, with the dimple in his cheek. Your breathing is shallow, and you have to blink briefly to regain your senses before you exhale deeply and look him in the eyes again.

His nod made you breathe a sigh of satisfaction as his gaze averted from you, down to the stone floor, where his eyes ran along every crack. "Well, you have to understand, I'm somewhat famous. It's nothing big, actually. I'm in a band." He knew that he was just talking nonsense and playing everything down, because it was something big and he knew that. But telling you now seemed strange and he was a little ashamed. He didn't even notice how his cheeks had turned pink and how he had stammered a little over his words.

Your smile stretched and you couldn't help but let out a little giggle. He paused for a moment, his eyes wide as he looked over at you, his mouth opened a crack and his heart was beating extremely fast. He had to calm down for a moment because he could have sworn he was about to pass out from a heart attack when he heard that angelic sound from you. His eyes closed briefly to try to calm himself down, but it didn't seem to work.

"Sounds pretty big to me." Not knowing what you just did to him with a simple laugh, you shrugged your shoulders as you look at him with raised eyebrows. You thought it was pretty cute how he tried to play it down, but the action at the train station explained more than enough to you that it was in fact something big. But what you don't understand was why he seemed so nervous to tell you. You didn't feel like you had said anything wrong that would make him think he couldn't tell something like that to you. Sure you didn't know each other, but you thought it wasn't something you only say to someone when you have a deeper connection with them.

A shaky breath escaped him as he smiled nervously, ignoring his previous near-heart attack as he shook his head slightly, his brown hair tickling his forehead. "I wouldn't say big but... I get recognized here quite a bit." He replied slowly, not taking his eyes off yours. He noticed how his body relaxed more and more by the minute as he spoke to you and he liked how calmly you responded.

You hummed softly in response as your eyes watched his features, your nose scrunched sweetly and your eyebrows pushed together, lost in thought. "Wait- aren't you the one with blue hair in Fantastic Baby? Like from the band bigbang?" It clicked in your head as you connected the threads and the realization of where you knew him kicked in.

The way he lowered his head in shame and his cheeks turned even redder, if that was even possible, told you that you were right. Your mouth opened in surprise, a light gasp escaped you without you being able to stop it and without being able to control it, you felt your palms sweat. You knew about him. Of course you knew him, who didn't? He was the first Kpop idol with a dark voice and one of the best rappers. Now that you were standing in front of him, you couldn't help but feel nervous and suddenly you felt stupid for not recognizing him right away.

You swallow hard and step back a little to bow, but his hands immediately shot up and stopped you in your tracks, his head shook quickly and his eyes had that pleading look that made you pause, breathing heavily as you looked up at him. Your body felt on fire as you realized what kind of situation you were in and, more importantly, with whom.

He had feared that something like this would happen and that was exactly what he wanted to avoid. For a moment he didn't want to be the famous Choi Seunghyun aka T.O.P, he just wanted to be normal for once but as quickly as the moment came, it was over and he knew that his little bubble had now completely burst. He breathed out deeply as he leaned a little closer to you and tilted his head a little down to be at your eye level, ignoring how his heart was beating faster and faster the closer he got to you.

"Please don't... Please don't treat me differently just because I'm someone famous." It was nothing more than a whisper and unintentionally his voice breaks a little towards the end, causing him to clear his throat a little. Your eyes widen in perplexity and for a moment you don't know what to say as you stare at him silently. The warm wind swirls around you, strolling over your skin and blowing the little strands of hair out of your face, your heart pounding so loudly, you were sure he could hear it too.

Your throat felt dry, still from the run earlier but also partly from the nervousness that was enveloping your body and your eye contact briefly broke as you lowered your gaze to the ground, swallowing hard. "I'm sorry." A whisper back.

Once again he shook his head, his fingertip gently under your chin so he could look you in the eyes again, his gaze somehow loving, which spread goosebumps on your arms. He himself was surprised by his actions, but tried to play it down with a clearing of the throat as he tilted his head slightly and gave you a small, dimple smile. "Don't be sorry, angel." The sudden nickname made your eyes widen, your cheeks turning pink, but he didn't seem to have noticed at all, as if it was something normal, too distracted by your piercing eyes that seemed to cast a spell on him.

From that moment on he knew that you would be the death of him and he couldn't imagine a second of a day without you and knew that he had to do something so that this wouldn't be the last time he would see you.
