{Special} College!AU Hanbin

*this post was commissioned | find all my college aus here | commission info

major: electrical engineering

minor: philosophy

clubs: engineering association, secretly attends music club and says that he doesn’t even though junhoe has caught him multiple times

sports: LOL is being on his college’s esport team count? does asking jiwon about his gym routine count?

hanbin is definitely a notable character on campus

he isn’t insanely popular and social like jinhwan or donghyuk - boasting thousands of followers on instagram and being labeled the princes’ of their department

but he’s not a total tech nerd like chanwoo - who keeps crushing poor hanbin at every video game he gets into

but a lot of people do know him

mostly because he’s got resting pissed off face

and nearly half the student body has gotten the wrong impression because of that

the amount of times jinhwan has had to explain to people that no hanbin isn’t glaring at you - he just can’t see very well

or in fact, he actually think you’re pretty cool it’s just,,,,,,,for some reason,,,hanbin never learned to express that very well

actually, hanbin isn’t good at expressing in general

he shifts from focused and hardworking when it comes to his studies, to tired and lazy when it comes to just about anything else

he can get loud when he thinks someone is cheating in overwatch or when someone bothers him in the middle of studying

but a genuine smile,,,,,,,,even after years of friendship jiwon admits he isn’t really sure he’s seen one from hanbin

but that’s not true, because hanbin does smile

especially when he’s embarrassed

and what embarrasses him the most????? love

any mention of relationships, skinship, dates, marriage, lovers - all of it makes hanbin get all awkward and jittery

he once got asked out by a brave freshman in his elective arts class

and got so flustered and unable to answer that instead of answering them he excused himself from the classroom

and did THREE laps around the arts building

dripping paint everywhere because he’d forgotten to set down his brushes when he’d rushed out

whenever he’s asked who his ideal partner is, or who he has a crush on on campus

he always answers with an idol’s name or a video game character

people always lifting an eyebrow because isn’t that a little childish, or is he just avoiding the question?

but he honestly means it - the idea of dating,,,,,,he won’t admit it,,,,,,,but it’s a bit too much for hanbin to handle for some reason

that being said - hanbin, deep down past the sarcasm and high standards

is a good person

he’d give up everything in the world for his sister, hanging photos of his family sentimentally in his dorm

even though he’d complain about it - he’d shrug off his jacket and drop it into the hands of someone whose cold

scolding them, telling them they’re dumb for not wearing layers but all the while knowing that he just doesn’t want them to get sick

yunhyeong gets teased by hanbin relentlessly everyday of his college life - but he never seems to hold a grudge

and when people ask him why,,,,,,,,yunhyeong just says

“hanbin might say stupid things, but his actions always tell me that he values me as a friend.”

soooo why electrical engineering??? to be honest hanbin had wanted to pursue music but tinkering with the actual hardware of computers and circuits had also caught his interest

he always explains that he works better with his hands than his brain - which seems like it wouldn’t work for engineering

but it does

and the philosophy minor has more to do with the fact that no matter how dumb he tries to say he is

hanbin has bigger ideas about the world, consistently questioning if people have purposes at all

much to jinhwan’s disappointment because

“god hanbin we’re at a club! no one wants to hear about freud! i want to get DRUNK dude!”

hanbin looks cute walking around campus with his nose stuck in a ‘intro to hegel’ textbook, rocking a cute dva keychain on his backpack

and hiding his face behind a white mask because he’s convinced jiwon is stealing his moisturizer and this weather isn’t good for his skin

you’re actually in the nursing program of the university with jinhwan

you hadn’t really meant to befriend the most popular senior in your major - but you’d been randomly assigned to complete a large scale research project with him on new tech influenced medical practices

and had somehow also found yourself agreeing to work on it,,,,,,,in his dorm

“i know the idea of three guys in one dorm is intimidating, but we have a lot of space considering it’s supposed to room up to six people. they’ll be more space for us to spread out!”

jinhwan insisted, unlocking the door to his dorm as you stood uncomfortably behind him

clutching the strap of your messenger bag for dear life

when you follow behind him, you notice both his roommates splayed out on a couch - game controllers in their hands

one of them pushes the other in the shoulder, and - oh my god he doesn’t have a shirt on!

you instantly look down and jinhwan clears his throat

“jiwon go put some cloths on - we have a guest!”

one of them, jiwon you presume, gets up to stroll out of the room

but not before giving you a casual wave as you feel the tips of your ears burn in embarrassment

the remaining roommate gets up too - switching of the ps4 as he comes over to you and jinhwan

“this is hanbin, i know he looks like he wants to kill you, but that’s just because he’s ugly.”

jinhwan introduces

and hanbin rolls his eyes, mumbling about how if jinhwan wasn’t his senior - he’d really have something nasty to say

before looking at you

he’s handsome, you think, but jinhwan is right he does have kind of a cold expression in his eyes

but either way - you manage out a small introduction and hanbin returns with his own

it’s only maybe thirty seconds of interaction? it’s the first time you speak to hanbin and you never expect it to cross your mind ever again

you go by weeks, coming over to this dorm to work on this project with jinhwan

jiwon and hanbin never really bother you guys, only asking every now and then what jinhwan wants to order for dinner - inviting you to stay and pratake in late night pizza or home cooking from jiwon’s aunts

sometimes hanbin will help you guys, not that he knows much about nursing

but he knows about researching and tech

you’ll sit with your laptop shared between you and him and jinhwan

and it used to be weird - being alone in this space of three friends, but before you knew it

it was comfortable

and then,,,,,,,,,,,,something changed

it was a week before you and jinhwan would be presenting your project

it was nearly done and this was supposed to be a run through of what you’d both be saying

but since you had classes till 9 pm, you only managed to get to their dorm when it was already pretty dark

the door was open and you let yourself in, setting down the bag of canned coffee and candy you’d bought from a nearby grocery

assuming you and jinhwan would need major caffeine to go through this large presentation

but to your shock, jinhwan wasn’t home - nor was jiwon

it was only you and hanbin

he’d shuffled out of his room, hair a mess and glasses perched on top of his head

“do you know where jinhwan is?”

hanbin had yawned and shook his head

“nope, probably got caught up hanging out with someone but he’ll be back soon”

he saunters over to you, rummaging through the bag you’d brought and pulling out a can of coffee

“can i have one? im going to be up for a final tonight too.”

you tell him to help himself, looking up to see hanbin’s eyes are tired - ringed with red like he hasn’t slept in days already

for a couple of minutes you guys make casual chit-chat

multiple times after finding out you’d been working with jinhwan at his dorms people have asked

is hanbin as scary as he seems? is he always mean to you? he seems like the type to nag or get angry over anything.......

but he’d never been even close to mean - he was always just,,,,,,normal

and even though he was less talkative and forthcoming than jiwon

and never downright flirty like jinhwan

he was nice in his own way

hanbin excuses himself to get back to studying and you get comfortable on the couch

opening up your notes as you wait for jinhwan

the time passes as you fall deeper into your notes

it reaches midnight and jinhwan doesn’t show any signs of coming back - neither does jiwon

you worry, maybe they’re both in trouble?

so you get up and make your way over to hanbin’s room, softly knocking on the door

after a few seconds of shuffling, he opens it and you apologize to interrupt but isn’t he also worried where his two friends are?

hanbin sighs, but agrees with you

“those idiots know the RA will lose it if we stay out past midnight. i should go and try to find them,,,,,,,,”

“ill help, if that’s ok?”

hanbin nods, taking his coat off his desk chair

you and him make a couple of rounds around the campus hot spots

there are tons of people still studying in the library and even a couple hanging around the gym

but not jinhwan and jiwon

hanbin tries calling them, then texting donghyuck who usually knows where to find at least one of them

but no luck

“im sure they’re just out partying. but what an idiot, im going to tell jinhwan off for forgetting he promised to study with you.”

you smile weakly

“it’s ok! im sure he didn’t mean to forget.”

“still, he’s older than both of us - he should really be more responsible.”

hanbin checks the time on his phone again

“c’mon ill walk you back to your dorm.”

you thank him, searching for your keys in your pockets when you realize you left your bag back at their place

you embarrassingly admit it, but hanbin tells you that it’s fine - you guys can go get it and then he’ll walk you home either way

“being out late like this is dangerous”

you two return and you pick up your bag, but before you go hanbin offers to go through your presentation with you if you want

at least that way you haven’t completely wasted your time

even though the clock ticks past one in the morning - hanbin watches you present from your note cards

clicking through the slides on your laptop

he even helps with some of the formatting and suggests helpful changes

the time escapes you at some point, and when the presentation is over you just end up on the couch beside hanbin

as you two just talk

as hanbin reveals to you his interests in philosophy - in the big questions of the world

and as you let him know that a lot of the same questions are the reason why you got into nursing

“i want a purpose in life - i want to help people.”

“see, i think even though purposes can vary - that’s one that never changes.”

you take a moment, thinking it over and finding that it’s true - no matter where your life goes, your profession would mean you cared for people

“do you think just having a good career where you help others is worth living?”

hanbin looks down at his hands and shrugs

“maybe, some people tell me the purpose of life is to fall in love and start a family. some tell me it’s about making money. but our connections to others - isn’t that what matters? isn’t that how we’re defined?”

the conversation spans on and on, you both lose yourselves

and hanbin doesn’t think he’s ever really talked to someone like this before

and you don’t think you’ve ever felt so ,,,,, open with someone you might not even call a friend yet

and who knows why or how you two got here

what chain of events lead you up to being in hanbin’s dorm on a thursday night past midnight

and why when you should have left hours ago and he should have returned to his books

you’d ended up moving closer and closer

till the only light in the room, the one from your laptop screen dulls

and you lean forward, one hand on hanbin’s thigh

lips brushing his

your memory flashes to the first time you met - how cold his eyes had seemed, but how it didn’t take away from how handsome you thought he was

and hanbin - who’d spent most of his time avoiding these situation, not involving himself romantically with anyone

was letting you do this

and maybe he doesn’t say it to anyone

especially not to himself

that he’s always found himself drawn to you

the image of you sitting cross legged on the floor with jinhwan, debating resources for your project

how you’d come over sometimes after class, with a thousand different papers in your hands

a pencil tucked cutely behind your ear

the way you’d laughed, filling the dorm with a musical soft sound when jiwon showed you a video of jinhwan pouring drinks all over himself on a dare one time

how he’d be playing video games with jiwon, pulling jinhwan’s attention away

and you never got angry

instead hanbin would put down his controller and catch you on your phone, lower lip between your teeth

and now

when you’d chosen to let him help you, had chosen to talk with him through the night

and you’d chosen to kiss him

and for a moment he’d chosen to kiss you back

but then

you both were pulling away - as if simultaneously realizing how this situation was just

too sudden

too abrupt

so you collect your things, hanbin gets up to walk you to the door, but it’s shutting in his face before he can even blink

“tell jinhwan to call me when he’s back”

is the last thing you say

and after that everything in hanbin’s world falls out of sync

like the planets have all aligned but it’s wrong - his center of gravity just doesn’t exist

jinhwan turns up in the morning, profusely apologizing to you on the phone as hanbin listens quietly

“it totally slipped my mind that we said we’d study again - i’ll buy you lunch as an apology - no no don’t even think about saying no, i was such a dumbass!”

hanbin clutches his fist, some weird feeling of uneasiness piling up in the pit of his gut

when jinhwan hangs up, hanbin gets up with such a loud sound it startles his roommate

“dude, what’s wrong?”

hanbin doesn’t meet jinhwan’s gaze

“you are a dumbass, i don’t care if you’re older than me - you deserve to be called that.”

jinhwan sort of goes speechless as he watches hanbin disappear down the hall

you and jinhwan give your presentation, it goes great, you get an A

and after that

you never come around anymore

and hanbin hates that your absence weighs on him

why aren’t they sitting on the couch? why aren’t they laughing at something stupid one of us did? why aren’t they here - why can’t i see them?

hanbin finds himself walking past flower stands, seeing bouquets of roses or tulips and for some reason he hovers

what kind of flowers do they like? do they even like flowers in the first place? and why do i care - why do i want to know so badly?

the shopkeepers always try to ask if he needs help, he has been standing staring at them for twenty minutes

but hanbin never buys them - just apologizes and runs off

but it’s not just flowers, this happens with everything

and he doesn’t get it - it doesn’t make sense

when he catches you coming out of from class, chatting with some of your friends

an unstoppable urge pushes him toward you - but he takes every ounce to fight it back

yes you two kissed - but it was spur of the moment - and you had run away

why would he approach you now, wouldn’t that just seem desperate?

but in reality, you’re just like hanbin

you’re much more versed in these feelings so you realize you have a crush on him, one that had harbored itself over those late night study sessions with jinhwan

where you’d be working on your project, but be acutely aware of hanbin’s presence

the little noises he made when he lost to jiwon in games, how he looked good even in sweatpants and a t-shirt

you don’t really know why you pushed away from him in that moment you had with him

it was just weird

he had sort of kissed you back? but there seemed to be this air of hesitance so you ran away

you wish you could talk to him, figure it out

but you also come to the same conclusion

i don’t want to seem desperate

about a good two weeks passes before suddenly jinhwan is standing in front of you outside of the nursing building with his hands on his hips

“hey, we need to talk”

“but the project is over-”

“no, we have another problem. a problem that i have to live with until i graduate so i want to sort it out now.”

at first you’re utterly confused

how are you at all involved with any problems of jinhwans - but then jinhwan sighs and goes

“hanbin, im talking about hanbin.”

did he tell jinhwan about what happened!?!?

you feel a rush of embarrassment, not sure how to explain to the senior of yours that it was a mistake, really just a mistake

but then you see something change in jinhwan’s expression

“i think he likes you.”

backtracking for a second you kind of just stare at jinhwan in disbelief

“h-he likes me? and he told you to tell me?”

jinhwan shakes his head and you two sit down on the steps of the building

“no, he didn’t. actually, i don’t think he himself realizes what his feelings are. hanbin is kind of ,,,,,,,,,,,, bad in the relationships department.”

you look down, remembering something hanbin had said to you the last night you saw each other

our connections with people is what matters

“oh,,,,but - how do you know that he feels that way if he hasn’t even said it?”

jinhwan gives a weak smile

“because i saw him toss chocolates into the garbage, make a playlist full of love songs before deleting it angrily off his laptop, and the guy ive known since we were in highschool suddenly didn’t look like someone i knew at all. he’s struggling and only one thing makes hanbin like that.”

jinhwan touches your hand gently

“and it’s love.”

to be honest, you don’t know what to do with this information

that night on the couch, you felt a strong connection with hanbin. so strong that it lead you to do something drastic and out of character, but looking back on it

the feeling was blissful

and if you could build on that,,,,with hanbin,,,,,,you really wouldn’t mind at all

but how can i just approach him now? it’s been some time, what if he just flat our rejects me?

you sigh, lost in your thoughts as the bustle of university life surrounds you

couples pass you by, laughing and talking

holding hands and kissing

and then the crowd parts and for a split second across them all you see a figure all alone

it’s hanbin

he has a book in one hand, coffee in the other - his backpack at his feet with the corner of his engineering textbook sticking out

he briefly looks up, meeting your gaze

and then the sea of people returns and you feel something in your heart tug

you go forward, confident that you can push through the bustle of people who are running around campus all the time

classes just let out so there’s a swarm but you walk right into the middle

i should go talk to hanbin! if jinhwan is right,,,,,,,i want to make sure of it myself!

but you don’t even have to make it to the end of the people because hanbin meets you halfway

and you both look at each other, wide eyed and shocked

“did you-”

“i wanted to talk-”

you feel your shoulder get brushed past by students, hanbin clutching his bag closer not to be in anyone’s way

and then without really thinking about it you put a hand on his wrist and you two join the moving flow

you sit down with him somewhere more secluded, neither of you is sure what to stay or how to start this

until hanbin mumbles

“let’s just do this all over again?”

you nod and before you know it he’s set down his book and coffee and leans in

cold fingertips on your cheeks as he asks you to close your eyes and this time

he’s the one that kisses you

and there are no intentions of pulling away

“why did you start liking me?”

“i guess i always thought you were cute, ever since you started coming around for your project with jinhwan. but after talking to you,,,”

hanbin looks for the right word

“it just clicked. you’re the kind of person that i want.”

jinhwan calls it when you come back hand in hand with hanbin to the dorms

like legit he gets his tiny body onto the couch, pointing at you two triumphantly like I KNEW IT

while jiwon is just flabbergasted

because quote on quote “you like hanbin back? but he has no redeeming qualities,,,,,,”

hanbin: “jiwon the only thing smaller than a pea is your brain”

but they both are just joking, they are actually super happy to see that hanbin has gotten a partner

because honestly there were bets going around in the group that he’d end up a hermit or something

yunhyeong, chanwoo, junhoe, and donghyuk all meet you a couple of days later when jinhwan insists they go out for drinks to celebrate

‘hanbin becoming a man’

yunhyeong and donghyuk immediately give you their contacts - just in case hanbin tries anything funny

while junhoe and chanwoo just clap hanbin on the back because - wow never thought you had it in you!

to be honest it’s a little bit embarrassing to be surrounded by hanbin’s friend group, they’re all such strong personalities, but they accept you just fine

dating hanbin means putting up with his roommates shenanigans

which are harmless toward you, just a lot of watching hanbin get teased for being bad at overwatch and jinhwan telling you that hanbin fell asleep in jeans three times this week

and the rest of his friends are just as fun, telling you joke stories about hanbin

but also RELENTLESSLY bringing up every gushy thing he’s said or done for you

“did you know hanbin put your picture on his phone case?”

“did you know hanbin spent hours googling ‘date ideas’ last night?”

“did you know hanbin almost broke chanwoo’s headset when chanwoo suggested that he’d invite you over to get coffee with him sometime?”

like it’s amazing how close they all are,,,,but now you’re in the cross fire of it all too

hanbin teaches you that the easiest thing is to ignore them - even though you know that he doesn’t

like you’re giving him a hug goodbye after you all went to the movies and you just know junhoe is wiggling his eyebrows and hanbin is flipping him off

but speaking of dates - hanbin is surprisingly good at picking romantic spots even though he admits that he’s never really been a romantic person

you guys go to a lot of live music shows, especially r&b soloist and jazz

hanbin reveals to you that he’s always had an interest in writing and producing music

and when you ask him excitedly to sing for you

he just goes “ah- what? no way!” but at some point you pester him just enough for him to sing a line from a song you like

and your jaw just drops because his voice is unique and can go pretty deep

and now every time you stay over, dozing off on hanbin’s chest you can hear him mumble the lyrics of some song against your hair

but other dates include; exploring wine bars, hanbin taking blurry photographs of you when you’re out in the park, and of course helping each other study

even though opening an engineering textbook scares the living daylights out of you

and hanbin will be the first to admit that he has no clue about any of the bones in his body

“but if you want to give me a full body exam, feel free?”

“hanbin,,,,,,,,,,did you just use a pick up line on me?”

“maybe”

“hanbin,,,,,,,,,,,we’re dating.”

his clumsiness does show itself when he’s trying to be a good boyfriend

because sometimes he can’t think of the right things to say and he needs to ask jinhwan for tips on how to deal with arguments

but he’s trying

no matter what - he’s trying to be the kind of boyfriend you dream about

and just seeing the effort makes you fall more in love

will hand write apology letters even if he just showed up late to pick you up from class LOL

he is pretty good at motivating you though

sometimes you’ll actually ask him to critique your work or tell you how you can do this or that better

and he’s shocked because his opinions usually just get taken the wrong way by people

but you know hanbin can really help you so you’re like give me your worst critique ever!!! i can handle it!!!!

he thinks it’s cute how you sometimes want him to tell you what’s wrong even though he’s told you ten times nothing is wrong

and he’ll be like “ok fine, ummm i don’t like the font you used”

“hanbin please take this more seriously”

“ok i don’t like that you indented twice here - im sorry don’t throw that pillow at me!”

playing video games with hanbin and beating him at them and then having to kiss his face all over because nooooo you didn’t mean tooooo

kissing hanbin is always a thrill

he’s a good kisser, but sometimes he can knock you off your feet a little and you have to stop him before he goes too far in public

like his need for affection is pretty high

which is a shocker considering he avoided relationships for so long

but now he’s just like kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss

starts working out so he looks better taking his shirt off and you never notice because like hello he’s hot already

but he’s just like gonna flex and turn my partner on but it’s like whatever you’re already turned on

the tattoo?? the broad shoulders?? the darkness that overcasts his eyes when he gets ontop of you?? LIKE,,,,,,,,

you come out of his room one day wearing just his shirt and jiwon drops his poptart because he’s surprised

and in an instant hanbin is in front of you blocking you off like “jiwon close your eyes you sinner”

and jiwon is like i just want to eat my poptart bro please put some pants on you’re more naked than your significant other

hanbin also surprises you because he gets pretty artsy, like he likes old movies and roll films

and you get him a polaroid on his birthday and he makes one of those cute hanging decorations with photos of you to hang above his desk

donghyuk is like that’s so diy hanbin how cute

and hanbin is like if you call me cute ill kill you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but also it is cute isn’t it?

finally hanbin learns what your favorite flowers are and he gets them for you randomly and you’re like oooo so pretty

and the way your face lights up everytime just. kills. him

you’re the cutest person to have ever lived

late night conversations about life, sipping milk tea on the roof of the nursing building while sharing kissing every now and then, watching ghilbi movies under the covers together

dating hanbin is such an experience and it’s one that reminds you why you started feeling something for him in the first place

and it’s because past the surface, there’s a whole world inside of him

and although people get too frightened to befriend or get close to him, the truth is he’s never wished ill on anybody

in fact - he means to help even if it comes out kinda rough

but you appreciate all of that about him

and hanbin finally feels like someone on this planet really is his soulmate

he might have not believed it before

but looking up at you

as you comb your hands through his hair with his head in your lap

watching the tv screen idly after a tough day of classes

and smiling shyly when the male lead on the screen grabs the other lead and kisses them with everything

putting your gaze down to travel over hanbin’s own lips

he thinks

soulmates are real

and he motions for you to lean down and let him kiss you with just as much passion

jinhwan walking in, unfazed by this pda: hanbin look how far you’ve come, from not being able to touch another persons shoulder to making out on MY couch

Genre: AU/Fluff

Pairing: Hanbin x You

By Admin B

Part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Hanbin spent the next week trying to decide what kind of video he wanted to film with you for his own channel. Yes, it took him the whole week because he overanalyzed, and he just wanted to come up with something you would actually like.

But you were a beauty YouTuber. He was a musically inclined vlogger. The only videos he actually sat down and filmed were music video reactions. And there wasn’t a music video releasing during the week of VidCon, so...

As he arrived in his hotel room for the biggest content creator convention of the year, he finally decided to just include you in one of his vlogs.

A lame decision, yes, but... That also meant you would kind of be forced to hang out with him for at least a day.

Hopefully more than one.

Hanbin was nervous to meet you for many reasons. The first being he kind of had a major crush on you? Or as much of a major crush you could have on someone you’d known for three weeks. But he’d watched almost every video on your channel, so he felt like he already knew you. You did a particularly good job of making your viewers feel more like friends with whom you were simply having a conversation rather than an audience who was only there to listen to you.

You were funny in a bit of a weird way, but it was a good weird. You made fun of yourself a lot, and you weren’t afraid to show yourself being dorky or goofy or weird. He appreciated the fact you didn’t seem fake or like you were trying too hard to be someone you weren’t. You weren’t trying at all to be someone you weren’t, actually.

So, yes, he was nervous because he had a crush on you. But he was also nervous because there was a possibility you might think he was only using you to gain more subscribers. Which was far from the truth. He was fine having just over 100 thousand (because your mentions of him on social media pushed him over that milestone a few days ago). He knew having as many subscribers as you meant more revenue... but it also meant more pressure. He didn’t make music for the purposes of popularity. He made music because he loved it. And if other people happened to love it, too, then great! He just never wanted to get to a point where he worried too much about what his subscribers thought, you know?

Oh, and he was also nervous to meet you because he was just shy and awkward around people at first. He tended to act kind of... weird. And dumb.

Hopefully, he wouldn’t scare you away.

You had messaged him on Instagram earlier in the day, letting him know a brief summary of your schedule for the week. Unsurprisingly, you were a lot busier than he was, so he had assured you he would be the flexible one. Whenever you had time to film would be when you guys would film.

Hanbin slid his phone out of his back pocket and looked at the message one more time, wanting to make sure he didn’t show up in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was already the second day of the convention (he had arrived later than you, but he was paying for everything himself), and you had a meet and greet scheduled in the main lobby of the convention center.

His plan was to go down there and meet you. Plain and simple.

He would join the line with the rest of your fans and meet you the way everyone else was. But he would film the entire thing, of course.

After checking the time, he gathered up his vlogging gear, ran a hand through his hair, and headed downstairs. His heartbeat quickened as he pressed the ‘down’ button for the elevator, and when the doors opened, he let out a huge sigh of relief. The elevator was empty so he could start his vlog on the ride down.

Once the doors closed behind him, he turned on his camera and held it out in front of him.

“VidCon, day one,” he began, holding up his index finger. “I’m in the elevator right now, on my way down to the lobby. There’s this popular YouTuber down there doing some sort of meet and greet, so I thought ‘why not?’ I guess it would be kinda cool to meet someone famous, so...”

He shrugged, trying his hardest not to smirk. But he knew he was failing. Oh well.

When the doors opened again, he turned the camera around and filmed the lobby as he walked toward the area set up for your meet and greet. There was already a pretty long line of people, but he wasn’t going to abandon his plan. He took his place at the end of the queue, letting out a nervous sigh as he turned the camera back around to face him.

“Okay, guys. I’ll see you at the front of the line.” He made a thumbs up, smiling slightly before ending the recording. Okay, now it was time for the artsy shots. He held the camera high up above his head, showing just how long the line was. He filmed the people walking by, and he even hopped out of line and set the camera down on a nearby bench to film the line slowly moving forward. He was already thinking about the music he would use during this montage.

As he waited, he did actually meet a few subscribers. A guy walking by recognized him, giving him a handshake and a bro hug after exclaiming over his music.

This interaction prompted the girl in front of him in line to turn around, her eyes widening when she realized who it was.

“Oh my god, you’re Hanbin!” she said softly but excitedly.

“The one and only,” he replied with a slight blush.

“I love your vlogs,” she told him, turning around fully to face him. “I started watching you because of Y/N -- wait, you’re in line to meet her?”

“Yeah,” he chuckled. “I thought it would be kinda fun to meet her this way?” But now he was saying it out loud, it seemed more stupid than anything.

The girl put her hands over her mouth, letting out a delighted squeal. “That is so cute! She’s going to freak! She talks about you so much!”

Hanbin was going to retort that you really didn’t, but... Now he thought about it... You had mentioned him on Twitter pretty often, and you always tweeted out whenever he posted a new video. You had also tagged him in your Instagram story a few times when you posted videos with his songs or those templates that had a question about who your favorite YouTubers were.

So... yeah. You did kind of talk about him a lot.

Hanbin chatted with the girl for the rest of their wait time, and he even recorded a little segment with her for the vlog.

Right before she stepped up to meet you, she whispered a ‘Good luck!’ and gave a thumbs up to Hanbin. His heart was pounding, and he was seriously doubting this plan now he was so close to actually meeting you.

This was weird. Him going to your meet and greet was weird! You would be creeped out, and you would avoid him for the rest of the week, and you would never watch his videos or speak to him again.

In fact, he almost stepped out of line, but his turn arrived before he could chicken out.

He made sure his camera was filming before stepping toward you, an awkward smile on his lips.

The second he saw your face, though, he felt so much better.

You gasped, a huge grin overtaking your lips immediately. “No way!” you laughed.

Hanbin chuckled, filming you as he walked up to you.

“Oh my god, hi!” you squealed as you instinctively pulled him into a hug. He figured it was how you were greeting everyone else, so he tried not to read into it too much. He slid his free arm around your waist, and when you pulled away, you kept one arm around his neck as he turned the camera around to face the both of you.

“Hi, Hanbin’s channel!” you smiled, waving to the camera as you stayed close to him.

“Mission accomplished,” Hanbin said with a nod.
