love at every sight

Summary:

Kevin “I went to that disco to dance with a girl, then I saw Jakob!” Holmström reflects on his 'love at first sight moment'

Notes:

welcome to 'swoon june'
day 1 prompt was: 'love at first sight' and I instantly thought of the quote from Kevin:
"Seldom have I been as impressed. This man could do it all. He could do cartwheels and frontflips straight off the ground, and moreover, he knew lyrics to a lot of popular songs. I had perhaps headed to the disco hoping to dance with some girl, but that dance would happen another time, because tonight would become the start of the rest of my show- and comedy-filled life. It was, of course, Jakob Norrgård, J in Kaj, who stood and flew there, gel in his hair and a chain on his jeans."
so it's that. . .

Work Text:

There’s something about this scene that calls to mind a previous one. One that’s so easy for Kevin to recall, and so vividly, as though he’s looking upon it now. He sees himself: younger, with brighter eyes that roam the dance-floor, perhaps looking for a girl to dance with, but they land on Jakob, with a chain on his jeans, and gel in his hair.

Outside the memory, the older Kevin smiles. His eyes had roamed this dance-floor and once again landed upon Jakob: older now, chain and hair gel gone, but Jakob still flies.

And Kevin remains as impressed.
