Summary: In which the mysterious legendary thief encounters with the constabulary's doctor, their fate might be tied up together.
It was magnificent.
A sheen swarthy sublimity flying across the darkness, under the great fineness of beautiful full moon, was something worth Lee Taemin had ever witnessed, with a pair of his eyes, for the first time. Like a luminous cat’s fur as it scooped over the roof, Taemin could never forget the aglow beauty in black, the sublimity prodigy running smoothly, as if he owned a pair of wings embedded on his back, easing him to cut across the night.
Beautiful, leaving a deep impression to the young doctor, and he was stunned over the fact that, their eyes once met, before his silhouette dissolved along with the cloudy sky.

“ Doctor Lee.”
Taemin stopped and glanced over his shoulder only to find Chief Yang walking towards him lazily. It seemed he had not yet recovered from his disappointment for once again, not being able to arrest the legendary thief last night.
“ Yes, Chief Yang?”
“ How was your first day? It must be surprising, considering it was your first time seeing our most important duty.”
Taemin coughed an awkward chortle because he knew how gloomy Chief Yang was during heading up back to the office. “ Well, it was. But I learnt many things from my first day.”
“ Good then,” Chief Yang tapped his new junior by eleven years, “ We have another work to do; it is about a homicide case. We need your help for the autopsy.”
Taemin nodded little, holding the papers in his embrace tight, knowing how tiring this day could be.
During the autopsy, Taemin had to crinkle the tip of his nose as his reaction to the bloody corpse in front of him; he was never a fan of scary stuffs, but it was his job, anyway. Taemin upheld himself as he stretched out his hands, getting back to his job.
“ How is it?”
Taemin exposed a little the corpse’s fabric, showing some bruises and wounds. “ This poor woman was abused.”
“ That sick husband, I believe,” Chief Yang sighed, “ Thanks for your hardwork, Doctor Lee. We call off today as a wrap.”
Taemin obediently got off and removed the medical gloves to wash his hands. He picked up his small, brown bag as he bowed at his senior. “ I’m heading off first, Chief.”
“ Sure.. oh yes my wife will scold me if I don’t finish this quickly.. Anyway, Doctor Lee, good work. Have a safe walk!”
~*~
The young male sighed deeply as he punched softly the electric switch and stepped across the cold floors of now bright apartment. Taemin disposed the bag and began preparing the hot water, he needed a shower right now. He was sticky and sweaty, Taemin disliked to be dirty, so he stepped in to the shower, washing his body and long dark red locks carefully. Once he finished, he wrapped his lower part around the waist and walked out of the steamy bathroom. He took out a sweatpants and loose white tee, slipping them along his smooth, milky white body. Taemin dried his damp hair with a hairdryer and put on some of night cream due to his sensitive skin. If Key knew he didn’t take a good care of his skin, probably he would have dragged Taemin away to a dermatologist; that freak of appareance genius guy. Taemin wondered why Key’s work as a consultor in the constabulary could match with his flamboyant personality.
Taemin put back the night cream on its place and crawled to his cottony bed, bouncing up a little after he tossed his small body onto it. Taemin looked up at the ceilings, his breath slowly hitching when he thought about last night.
Earl the legendary thief.
The sovereign of darkness in the night.
Was it the thief’s appellation? Chief Yang called the thief Earl, a very uncommon name in South Korea. It was like, what, old English name.
But somehow that name sounded really beautiful in Taemin’s ears, he liked how the name created an addicting tinge, like a bell in the christmas.
Taemin widened his eyes and slapped lightly his cheek, waking up from daydreaming. Cut it out, Tae. You are a guy, not supposed to admire another man like a highschool girl like this. Top of all, he is a thief, he mentally mumbled, rolling to a side of the kip. After scolding himself, Taemin closed his eyes, trying to drift off to sleep since he felt really tired as for the first and second day. He wasn’t able to come home last night, after all.. Works were pilling up and so on..
“ London Bridge is falling down.. Falling down.. Falling down..”
Taemin snapped his eyes open, he was startled by a soft, deep voice coming from the balcony, he breathed heavily as he soon realized that, someone was here; Taemin wasn’t alone.
Taemin pulled out his blanket to at least cover his trembling body. Who on earth would be sitting on his balcony, top of all his apartment was on the twelfth floor? Was it ghost? Taemin sweated in fright, he didn’t dare to run away, yet he wanted to check the person so bad. At the end Taemin tiptoed quietly, flipping open slightly the window to peek, and his slanted eyes became wide when he saw the actual person.
“ London Bridge is falling down.. falling down.. London Bridge is falling down.. My fair lady..”
Realizing that he had been being watched by the owner, the mysterious guy dressed in entirely black outfits turned his head and gave a small smile that might have given a heart attack to someone with weak heart towards a perfection.
Taemin could feel his entire body shaking. “ Y - You are - “
“ Why? Isn’t my voice quite good?” the guy coyly asked, he had his legs streched out on the balcony railings, one hand flipped across his thigh. “ Did I wake you up?”
But Taemin wasn’t able to speak, nor move, he was too flustered over the fact that, someone unexpected had been actually sitting on there during his short nap.
The other male twitched a smile. “ Sorry for not introducing myself, but I suppose you have known my name from your chief, but anyway, my name is Earl, or that’s so I go by the name,” he said softly, “ and my real name, you will find out when we meet once again, only two of us, this close, like now.”
Taemin was immobile when Earl hopped down easily without stumbling and drew closer to him, still putting on his gentle smile. Taemin shut his eyes tight as Earl’s long fingers brushed his hair, his body shaking violently. Earl chuckled, but why did it sound like a music to Taemin?
“ It’s nice to meet you, Taemin,” Earl’s breath ghosted over his ear, “ or I must say, Doctor Lee from the Seoul constabulary.”
Taemin gasped when he felt cold lips pressed against his forehead, but Earl’s skin against his own was really warm; unlike the lips. Taemin’s brain could not proceed even a single thing until they parted away, then he saw a much softer smile on Earl’s face.
“ Things you have to know that, my real name’s first letter is started with M,” he whispered, “ and my surname is ‘Choi’. We will meet more often from now on, Doctor Lee. I’m looking forward to our next encounter.”
Then he grabbed a hold of the railings and threw a deep gaze along with a smirk, before he climbed over and jumped down. That gave an intense shock to Taemin and he shouted, but his throat was somewhat blocked so he gave away the loud voice of panic. “ This is twelfth floor -“
But that guy was already gone, off Taemin’s sight, immersed in the darkness of that quiet night.
