Yoonchae wasn't someone who liked physical touch much, she'd try to avoid physical touch anytime she could, even if it was with her friends and family.
Except for Megan. Yoonchae always leaned into her touch, she was afraid to let go as if she would lose her if she didn't cling onto her strong enough.
And truth be told, Yoonchae really was scared she'd lose that little warmth in her life, despite the fact she knows the world doesn't work like that, she still clung onto her as much as she could.
Although she never knew why she clung only to her, why not Sophia? Sophia had always been like her guardian, Yoonchae knew she could cling to her and Sophia would always let her. Maybe Megan was just.. Different, she was just a very special exception for Yoonchae, Megan had always been a little more special than the rest in Yoonchae's eyes, she couldn't help it.
Yoonchae had always looked up to Megan ever since dream academy, Megan was talented and beautiful, she was positive and kind, she saw the good things even in the worst moments, she comforted even if she needed it most.
Maybe it was the way Megan carried herself, how she always seemed to care about the little things, how she always saw everyone, how she loved everyone and saw the good in them even if they couldn't, she was observant, always making sure nobody felt left out, making sure everyone felt just as loved, making sure everyone knew their worth, that they knew they're loved, that they knew someone cares for them, that they're important to her, to someone.
Maybe that's why Megan is so special to Yoonchae, because she always saw the positive side of things, because she was always there to make Yoonchae feel included, even if there was a language barrier between them.
Yoonchae couldn't help but wanna be with Megan, hold her hand as they walk, cup her cheeks when she says something dumb which might as well be everytime she speaks, she couldn't help but think of Megan everytime she saw something silly.
She couldn't help but pay attention to Megan, something about her captivated Yoonchae, each time she entered the room, her eyes always seem to search for one person in particular within the room; Megan.
She just has that charm, the charm that could make you fall in love in just seconds, who wouldn't fall in love? It's Megan after all. The kind, lovable, caring, talented, and beautiful Megan.

Lately, Yoonchae had been thinking of Megan more than normal, though she would never admit that, not to anyone and especially not to Megan herself, Yoonchae doesn't want to potentially make her uncomfortable.
But she couldn't help but think about Megan, she was so cute and silly, how could you not? It was almost impossible not to think about her at least twice a day.
Yoonchae knew so many little details about Megan, it seemed impossible not to think she was deliberately trying to find more about Megan.
Like how Yoonchae knew Megan woke up earlier than the rest, always wearing mismatched socks whenever she was tired, cherry socks if she was happy, anything blue if she was sad, how she knew Megan's favourite spots were the rooftop and the balcony, she loved to stargaze, ever since she was child, how Megan loved to hum whenever she was doing nothing.
Yoonchae had even seen Megan stargaze before, she looked so focus it was so cute that Yoonchae had to take a polaroid of it, putting it on her side of the shared bedroom with Sophia. Sophia only giggled in amusement as she watched Yoonchae put polaroid after polaroid of Megan just being Megan, her entire wall was nearly covered.
Yoonchae doesn't even know when she found out about the little details about Megan, she just saw Megan do it and it never left her mind. But Yoonchae doesn't mind thinking about Megan all day, it might just become her favourite activity.

Yoonchae had found a new relaxing activity ─ sketching. She had started drawing after Sophia recommended it to her, she drew everything she thought was cool, but one person in particular always stood out as being the one she drew the most, Megan. Yoonchae even bought a seperate sketchbook to sketch Megan in, always carrying that one particular sketchbook with her, as if she's scared to lose it or have anyone steal it.
Yoonchae had sketched Megan hundreds of times already, sleeping, eating, dancing, singing, everything Yoonchae could think of, she just loved to draw Megan's features, yet none of her drawings could encompass the beauty Megan possessed, no matter how many lines Yoonchae drew.
Megan had essentially became the muse to Yoonchae's artist.
Yoonchae had always wanted to capture Megan in the moment, yet she never could, not with selfies, photos, polaroids, sketches, and even drawings. Maybe she should try painting next.

Yoonchae tried to paint, it wasn't that great but it wasn't bad for a beginner. She practiced day after day, after she was somewhat satisfied, she asked Megan to be the muse of her painting to which Megan happily agreed.
Yoonchae didn't think it looked too good but Megan thought so otherwise, she loved it because of course she did, this was Megan after all, she loved everything no matter how bad it probably was, that's just how Megan is.
It didn't matter. At least Megan was happy, Yoonchae would gladly spend more of her free time to practice more and more until her paintings are the best ones Megan has ever seen.
But Megan denied, telling Yoonchae to spend her free time doing other things she liked doing and most importantly, resting.
Oh well, Yoonchae just loves seeing Megan smile, that was probably her favourite part of her attempt at painting and maybe everything else she did. She loved how Megan's eyes seemed to close whenever she smiled, her whisker dimples only adding more to her cuteness.

Megan's voice was captivating, Yoonchae had always admired it, it itched her brain in just the right spots, if you know what she means.
It was just.. Perfect, Yoonchae could fall asleep listening to Megan ramble on and on about.. Well, anything and everything. Her voice seemed to be music itself.
Every word she said sounded like a song, a lullaby that she could fall asleep to, a poem she could read a thousand times, a love-letter she would keep until her dying breath, it felt so beautiful to Yoonchae's ears.

The girls had went out to the park so they could hangout, it's been a long time since they hung outside of the KATSEYE house after all, they went to various places, parks, stores, bakeries, and malls.
Yoonchae always seemed to have Megan in mind all day long, it was evident with how she always pointed things that reminded her about Megan even though Megan was quite literally walking beside her.
Sophia had noticed how Yoonchae had payed more attention to Megan than she did to everyone else, she thought it was cute to say the least.
Megan didn't seem to mind that Yoonchae had been paying more attention to her, in fact, she likes the attention she was being given by Yoonchae.
Safe to say Yoonchae had bought multiple items that had reminded her of Megan a lot, Sophia had even joked about Yoonchae being obsessed with Megan to which Yoonchae made a disgusted face in reply with Megan laughing it off.
They got home late in the night as Yoonchae arranged the sketchbooks and newly bought stuff on her desk, taking a few steps back to look at her ever growing mini collection.
The polaroids will always be her favourite pieces though. They capture Megan's smile more than her little sketches ever could.

While everyone was watching some cheesy romance k-drama Yoonchae had put on because everyone was too busy fighting over who gets to pick the next movie, as the k-drama ending scene which was one of those typical cheesy confessions that ends with a kiss kept getting closer, Yoonchae couldn't help but think, “If only Megan was a boy.”
