In which Minho gives Kibum a present everyone could only wish for.
Author's Note: Inspired by SHINee's interview on M-On Monthly ICON. basically, the title is a huge spoiler for this ball of fluff. i hope i got the japanese right because it's based on what i heard Kibum say. hehe. so this came about because i just watched the chinese subbed version and picked up bits of what Kibum said in their interview to write this oneshot. and well, if you want a bit more of a spoiler (besides using google translate to figure out the japanese), this little bit that has been translated to english is all you need to understand what you're about to read. so enjoy the fluff that is about to come, dear readers, thanks for clicking! i hope you'll enjoy! ^^
Choi Minho had changed a lot since debut but if there was one thing about him that stayed the same, it was how attentive he was as a person. Whether he was quiet (from the start) or talkative till the point that he was ordered to shut up by his members (when he eventually came out of his shell), Minho was always mindful of others, always observant and paid attention to detail. When he found love, such a character trait of him not only remained but also strengthened. Because Minho was especially attentive to his boyfriend’s needs and wants, never failing to go all out just to satisfy all that his boyfriend desired.
And so, when he heard Kibum reveal what he wanted if he could make one wish come true, it was almost like a natural instinct for Minho to fulfill his boyfriend’s wish regardless of how impossible it sounded. It wasn’t soon before long Minho found himself having some free time between schedules to drive to the nearest Kyobo Bookstore where he knew he would find just what he needed. And about an hour later, a satisfied Minho came home with a paper bag in hand, all ready to begin his plan to make Kibum’s wish come true.

It was just another day in the life of Kim Kibum when he amazingly found himself free of schedules and having the luxury to laze around in bed. With Minho nowhere in sight and the rest of the members busy enjoying time to themselves, Kibum had nothing better to do than edit selcas of himself on his phone so he could share them with the fans. Hey, don’t judge him, editing photos was a skill, and to Kibum, his interest/hobby, so it was no surprise that Kibum did spend considerable amount of time and effort just to edit one photo. In fact, he had been so focused on deciding which effect looked the best that the blonde did not realize Minho had come into his room. It was only when something had appeared in his line of sight, between his eyes and the screen of his phone, that Kibum gasped and lost his concentration.
Instantly moving his phone away and then pushing the object further away from his eyes so he could see what it was, Kibum looked towards the owner of the hand that was holding what he realized looked like a vintage style diary and asked with a puzzled frown, “What is this? You’re finally letting me read your diary?”
Minho rolled his eyes and pushed the diary into Kibum’s hand. “Here, see for yourself, smarty pants.”
Kibum looked down at the diary, turning to see the design of the book front and back (happy because vintage indeed suited Kibum’s taste) before he quickly fanned the pages with his thumb and observed out loud, “It’s a… blank notebook?”
Minho nodded and then said, “Flip to the first page.”
Kibum did what he was told and stared at the black bold words that were written on the first page in what was obviously Minho’s handwriting.
“Wish… Note?” Kibum read out as his eyes travelled from the two words towards his boyfriend.
As their eyes met, Minho smiled. “You wanted it, didn’t you?”
Remembering what he had mentioned in a recent interview they did in Japan, Kibum nodded dumbly, “Yes but you didn’t have to take me seriously.”
“Well, I did…” Minho shrugged before he continued confidently, “So trust me Kibum, I’ll make this Wish Note of yours work.”
Kibum paused for a moment before he let out a breathy laugh, “You know you’re going to regret this right?”
Minho chuckled as he settled down next to his boyfriend on the bed, “Maybe… but even so, I still want to give this to you.”
“Minho…” Kibum bit his bottom lip as he looked back down at the notebook in his hand, “I can’t… I won’t-”
“Just say thanks, Kibum.” Minho interrupted, playfully nudging Kibum on his side.
Kibum smiled helplessly at the rapper, “Thanks.”
“Whenever you want to… just write down your wish and pass it to me… I’ll make it come true.” Very much satisfied that his idea was a success, Minho felt even more confident of himself as he made a promise with Kibum.
“I’ll take your word for it, Choi Minho.”
“I’ll be waiting, Kim Kibum.”
And the two from the 91-line shared a knowing smile with each other.

Although he told himself not to take his boyfriend seriously when he was gifted with the ‘Wish Note’, Kibum found himself thinking long and hard of what he wanted… and the next thing he knew, he began listing them down on the second page. Yet, every single time he listed one of his wishes down, Kibum would end up striking it off because he knew exactly how demanding one seemingly simple wish of his was on Minho.
Head back home to Daegu and spend time with my family
Have a short summer vacation, anywhere but preferably at the beach
Try everything at the convenience store that has matcha in it
All the above was too much to ask from his boyfriend and Kibum didn’t have the heart to put that much stress on the rapper. The blonde had absolute faith in his boyfriend; he had no doubts at all that Minho would do anything in his ability to make his wishes come true. That alone was enough to hold Kibum back from ever passing the ‘Wish Note’ to Minho.
It had been almost a week since Kibum got it and throughout this time, Minho was always checking with him if he had any wishes to be fulfilled. Kibum had shaken his head each time Minho asked and bluffed his boyfriend that he had no time to even wish for anything what with their busy schedules and his individual practices for his male lead role as Clyde in his upcoming musical ‘Bonnie & Clyde’. Yet the truth was, Kibum had been fiddling with the notebook every night before he slept, always tempted to act on his greed and make Minho fulfill his promise. But one night, one very random night when Kibum was lying awake in bed when he should have been asleep, his mind became clear. In an instant, he had grabbed the notebook off his bedside table, hastily scribbled his wish on the third page of the book and stormed straight into Minho’s room.
Smiling at his boyfriend who was surfing the net on his MacBook before he came into the room, Kibum dropped the notebook lightly into Minho’s lap and said, “Here you go. Turn to the third page.”
A smile grew on Minho’s face as he picked up the book and opened it, “You finally have the time to think of a wish?”
Kibum simply hummed in reply.
Although he didn’t miss out that Kibum had wrote something on page two, Minho decided to flip to the third page first as the blonde instructed and read his wish. Upon seeing what Kibum had written down, Minho’s smile slowly disappeared as it was replaced with a confused expression.
“Kibum, this wish already came true.” Minho looked at his boyfriend in all seriousness, still puzzled with the words he saw written on the page.
“I know.” Kibum grinned as he linked his hands behind Minho’s neck and fit himself nicely in between Minho’s legs, looking down at his boyfriend, “That’s the point, Minho. I don’t need this… this Wish Note is useless. I think it’s cute you thought about this and gave it to me, and I really love the notebook so I’m still going to keep it, but I’m not going to use it as a Wish Note.”
“You sure about this?” Minho returned a smile, his hands settling on Kibum’s hips, pulling his boyfriend closer. “I’m practically offering to be your slave and you’re turning this golden opportunity down?”
“100%. Absolutely. Positive.” Nodding, Kibum answered as he bent down and kissed Minho, “And you know why.”
Yes. Minho knew why. He understood exactly what Kibum was saying. That was why Minho’s smile grew wider as he continued the kiss and tightened his hug around his boyfriend, never letting Kibum go, not now, not ever.
The ‘Wish Note’ was long forgotten as their kiss grew heated but it lay open on Minho’s desk, revealing what Kibum had written on the third page of the notebook.
I just want this idiot called Choi Minho to love me like I love him for the rest of my life.
That was the wish that had already come true. With Minho to call his, Kibum truly couldn’t ask for more.
