Kyungsoo watches as the other male puts up a book between the two of them so that Kyungsoo was unable to move his head far enough right to lay his head on the other’s shoulder. He hadn’t meant to fall asleep, but he hadn’t had much sleep the previous night, and the hum of the bus and the chattering of people in the background was like a weird sort of lullaby that Kyungsoo couldn’t help getting mesmerized in. 

Boldly, Kyungsoo pushes the book down. This bus was too crowded to get up, and not resolving the issue seemed like it would just make the ride more uncomfortable. But when he sees the look in the eyes of the other male, he stutters in his speech. “L-look I’m really sorry.” His eyes turn sincerely apologetic. “I- I won’t do it again, so you can put the book down…”

“When my baby’s repaired, you could take her on a short spin…I mean, you’re not likely to crash her or anything, are you?” Ravi lets out a slightly nervous laugh at the thought, rubbing at the back of his neck. “Well, there’s no harm in that. Exploring new places is always fun, although I wouldn’t have pegged you for the adventurous kind. It seems like you are though, huh?” he said with a chuckle as Kyungsoo spoke.

He shot a mock-indignant look at the other male, frowning jokingly at his words. “Me? Shady? As if,” he said, waving a hand dismissively with a laugh. “But really, my area isn’t shady, so don’t worry. It would be good if you could find an apartment around there. Although there are some dubious places nearby that you probably shouldn’t enter once it gets dark. Still, that’s what I’m here for, to keep you out of those places, right?” He grinned, ducking a little to glance out of the bus windows. “We’re almost here. Have you been to this part of town before?”

Kyungsoo gives a slight laugh, "I don’t think giving me anything in where I have to maneuver a large object is a good idea. I just like the thrill of it, you know? Or the idea of the thrill.” When Ravi says the word ‘adventurous’, Kyungsoo almost snorts. “I wouldn’t say I’m adventurous, though. More like… Romantic? But not romantic as in with love–god knows i’m terrible with that. Romantic with ideas. Leaving home seemed kind of romantic, I guess.”

Kyungsoo looks out of the window, and it looks better than he’d initially thought. “I don’t think so…” His eyes grow wide as he looks with curiosity at the neighborhood before him. “So where do you live? In your apartment building, I mean. What floor? Does it have a nice view? I think I want somewhere with a nice view. I don’t want to be looking down at those shady areas and…” Kyungsoo trails off, realizing that he’d been rambling a little, and he gives the other boy an apologetic smile.

Oh, I understand. I haven’t been much of a socializer lately too. [Not wanting to cross the other limits, he leaves the topic behind, only to realize that now the main talk is about himself;] Like you said, “I can’t say I’m fully okay”. But, it’s silly and will get better. [He smiles softly, nodding slowly]

[ He feels the transition of the conversation and smiles a little. He still hasn’t grasped the whole concept of talking to people, and a million questions about what to say next grabs his mind in desperation. But the little part of his overly thinky self of the past few months manages to take hold of his tongue; ] Healing’s a funny thing. You never really know when you’re fully done. The blood might be done clotting, but when does it fully heal, you know? [ He realizes the words he’d just said, and slowly backs up, giving the other a smile; ] Sorry, I tend to think-talk too much.

“No, it’s alright you don’t have to-” she starts, not wanting to cause him even more trouble. It’s no use though; he’s already picking the sheets of paper up from the ground. When he hands them to her she flinches again, more visibly this time, thinking he might hit her or shout at her for being so clumsy, but his tone of voice and his words takes her by surprise; no one’s ever asked her if she’d be alright.

“I’ll be fine. I have another copy at home,” she laughs; her tone and her smile completely concealing her fear, “besides, if I leave these out to dry, they’ll be good as new.”

The girl was a stranger, but Kyungsoo’s curiosity always comes tumbling out of his mouth at times like these. It’s like the part of his former self that’s come back to let him know that he’s still the person that he was back then. Granted, he doesn’t really know how to feel about that, but it wasn’t doing any harm for now. So Kyungsoo nods at the girl and asks, “what music is it?” Taking another quick peek as she shuffles it in her arms, he smiles. “It looks like an original composition.”

I’d love it if even one person did this

_{Go on ANON and tell me what you think of me. I do not want to know who it is, at all. Don’t tell me who it is, don’t give me hints, don’t say your screen name. Tell me exactly what you think of me. Don’t sugarcoat things. Don’t lie. If you hate me, tell me why. Tell me what I’m doing wrong. If you like me, tell me why. Tell me exactly what you think of me.}

Kyungsoo’s eyes fall upon the scattered music on the floor, looking at them with eyes like he felt sorry for them. When he hears the owner’s voice apologizing, he’s already picking them up for her. “No need to apologize,” he says, looking up briefly before turning his attention back to the scattered sheets. When he’d grabbed the last of them, he stands back up straight and hands them back to the girl, an apologetic crease in his eyebrows. “I think some of them are wet from the snow… Will you be alright?”
