before anyone could even register the sound of the door unlocking and opening, anna was already walking into the dreamies’ dorm like it was her very own home. she’s been here way too many times to knock or ring the doorbell at this point. ❛ hello kids, your favorite mom is here !! ❜ she announced her own appearance, arms out wide as the ( taller ) boys swarmed around her in hugs and chatter. she made sure to show affection and speak to each one of them, as well as give a popsicle she purchased at the convenience store nearby. once they were all done swarming, she made her way towards the father oldest of the group. ❛ hello hello, i would give you a popsicle but i kinda forgot to buy an extra for myself so i just ate yours. i missed you !! ❜ she hugged jake, as if she didn’t do anything at all, then gave him a quick peck on the cheek. in which the dreamies yelled and gagged at.
❝ we really need to start locking the door ⎯ haechan-ah i told you crazed fans could get in and look what happened. ❞ jake feigned a grimace at the sight of his girlfriend and his so called members who had promptly ignored his existence ever since anna had waltzed ( waltzed because it really was like the dorm was an extension of anna’s home ) in. ❝ well.. it’s the nice thought that counts, even though your actions sucked since i’ll probably starve now. ❞ he shrugged, showing a nonchalant expression before moving to put his arm around the blond, an automatic smile tugging on his lips at the feel of her lips against his cheek. ❝ i didn’t think you’d be coming round now, i would have kicked the kids out ⎯ no don’t even think about saying anything ❞ he directed towards his members who seemed primed to tease the pair, their action far too predictable by now. ❝ i missed you too, the bullying over text just isn’t the same as receiving it in person. ❞

she was in the bathroom doing exactly what you’re thinking — throwing up, yet once again. she hasn’t had a single ounce of alcohol and only a few pieces of pizza, and what fills the toilet bowl isn’t digested food but flower petals. yellow rose petals, strewn over the floor and covering her clothes as she brushes them away and tosses them in the trash. it’s horrible — unrequited love fucking sucks.
yoonji tries not to even look in jin’s direction when she exits the bathroom, knowing that if she happens to see the idol with another, she’ll probably dash right back to the toilet. but she finally gains her composure and walks down the hallway backstage as if nothing had even happened — in fact, she’s holding a warm cup of coffee to aid her lie of ‘just went to get something to drink’ if anyone asks where she was.
❛ jin, ❜ the assistant breathes out when the idol comes up out of nowhere. at first her face shows an expression of stress, but relieves when she doesn’t feel any movement in her stomach or feelings of sickness. she must’ve gotten rid of all the flower petals earlier, which is good. ❛ sorry, ❜ she apologized to the elder jokingly, a small chuckle leaving her lips. ❛ it’s freezing out here so i just… got some coffee. ❜
yoonji checks her watch and sets down her coffee. red velvet had just performed maybe ten or fifteen minutes ago, so at least the biggest part of the night is over. ❛ i was in the bathroom so i didn’t get to see you guys perform. how was it ?? ❜ keep the conversation as chill and platonic as possible.
❛ you do look cold, you should have worn some more layers. ❜ jin chides softly, frowning gently as she pulled the blanket from her chest, opening the fabric up in order to put it around yoonji’s shoulders. ❛ it was good! i missed seeing you when we got off though, i was dragged with yeri to talk with some of her friends and company groups. ❜ jin grimaces jokingly, the expression soon fading however into a soft smile that always seems present when the elder is around the girl in front of her.
❛ if you watch it later will you tell me what you think? ❜ she enquires, something she routinely does whenever the group has performed and she wants a honest opinion of her own performance. in many ways jin had come to rely on yoonji in ways she doesn’t necessarily rely on the other assistants around red velvet. jin simply put it to the fact that yoonji had been working with them for so long that she knew jin just as much as jin knew yoonji, something she wondered if the girl in front of her truly understood.
jin notices the quick flickers of emotions that flitter across yoonji’s face briefly, the temporary expressions she sometimes feels like they aren’t meant to be shown to her. in a way it hurts her, how she has come to rely on the younger yet she feels like the latter doesn’t do the same. she knew not all staff members and idols were this close, hell, if they were different people a scandal could even rise between them for the friendship they have.
❛ do you have any plans tonight yoonji? we’re going to be getting takeaway chicken tonight at the dorm and you know there’s always extra. ❜ jin sings gently at the end, making a mental note to tell the rest of their members that they’re getting chicken tonight and they’ve been planning it for a while. blame it on the fact that jin was the oldest of the group or not but she always had a habit of trying to look after people, yoonji being victim to that since jin was only too well aware that while she was busy herself yoonji was just as or sometimes even busier than her. ❛ plus we haven’t got a schedule until later tomorrow so- but you can just get some rest if you want? you look tired, have you been getting enough rest? ❜

to be completely honest, dabin was thoroughly surprised when her manager came to her with the news. park dabin, queen of awkwardness and silence on variety shows, appearing on we got married ?? was this some kind of joke ?? surely her fellow members would be much better at this, specifically bomi or anyone else besides dabin. the pressure to be entertaining and actually talk was a little less than enthralling, unfortunately.
to her dabin’s happiness and luck, the staff was very polite and welcoming to the rookie idol and much help was given in order for her to keep the show viewers entertained. the producers were taking a huge risk bringing a popular rookie idol ( specifically a popular idol under one of the big three companies ) to the show and also wedding her with someone equally as popular. it was believed to be difficult to find a partner until a particular candidate made himself extremely well-known with his persistent e-mails and communications, whose owner dabin would be meeting today. she’s more than just nervous at this point.
however, she was very surprised to have her brown hues land on the familiar male in front of her upon entering the cafe. is that who she really thinks she is or have all other idols just been blurring together since she debuted ??
❛ ah–… min—- ?? ❜ is the first thing that leaves her lips. my, would it be awkward if it turns out her husband-to-be really isn’t her longtime trainee friend and instead someone who just happened to look a lot like him. but she’s just expecting the worst at this point, because no way park dabin can get this lucky. in her heart, she knows exactly who this person is. a smile spread on her lips, pink lip gloss shimmering under the light.
a part of min a very large part of min almost expected dabin to seem disappointed, perhaps even a little bit creeped out since it was apparently common knowledge min hadn’t been very discreet about wanting to be in this specific relationship. fake relationship. so to be greeted with a smile no less min could actually hear his heart beating in his ears, almost positive a red flush was colouring the tips of them. ❛ dabs- i mean dabin-ah ❜ he corrects, his head still partially bowed and his eyes finding sudden interest in the tiles of the cafe floor.
❛ i- erm- i didn’t order for you incase- ❜ don’t say in case it wasn’t her ❛ if you didn’t like your old drinks still.. ❜ another 10 points added for appearing like a bigger stalker. in the corner of his eye he was briefly made aware of a staff member gesturing for him to actually look at dabs ( something he knew he needed to do as well, thank you very much ) but he was genuinely afraid if he did he’d be unable to look away and say something which was somehow even more embarrassing.
truthfully min hadn’t put much thought into what he’d say or how he’d act if he saw dabin like this again, close enough to be able to have an actual conversation with rather than taking glances at her during events. suddenly min felt like the young, small trainee that had only just joined yg again, standing by himself in the training room watching dabin from afar. min had always been used to admiring the brunette from afar, always untouchable to someone like him.
❛ do you want to sit down? i can er- ❜ he gestures to the chair beside him, pulling it out enough so she would be able to sit down on it. ❛ i’m glad you’re here, with me. like, you’re here and there isn’t somebody else here instead of you? ❜ he didn’t mean to phrase it like a question but apparently that had happened.
tired. jin was tired. it was the midst of promotions for their latest comeback and in between the various variety shows and music shows they were attending every other day it was prime season for the festivals to begin to crop up which is where jin currently found herself, thick coat bundled around her along with a blanket resting over her arms, trying to regain some heat. really, all she wanted to do was go back to the dorm, get changed into pyjamas and watch some bad show until she could go to sleep.
unfortunately for her, that wasn’t exactly possible right now since she was stood beside one of members talking to people who definitely wouldn’t be included in her quiet night in watching shows. jin was well aware she didn’t exactly exclude friendliness, something wendy had once jokingly said which had stuck meaning she normally had to make a conscious effort of smiling and appearing a lot more interested in what was going on. that’s why as yeri worked on gaining more friends, laughing and joking with the majority of the group, jin only adding the small comment, tending to talk to the male idol beside her only since it meant she wouldn’t have to struggle talking to everyone.
she didn’t even know how long they had all been talking for before she clocked someone she was far more familiar and comfortable with. jin would count yoonji as someone who was a friend to her, somebody she wouldn’t mind joining her quiet nights at the dorm. along with her members, yoonji was the only other person who could make jin feel less like she was going to fall asleep where she stood during busy promotions. “yoonji-ah!’ jin raised her voice, enough to get the attention of the girl in question hopefully as she turned to the idol beside her to politely say goodbye before turning and jogging over to where the younger was stood (and potentially pretending not to hear the idol trying to get her attention before she left).
“i was looking for you before, you left me to be dragged around by yeri.” jin joked, a small pout accompanying the sentence.

❛what? are you sure?❜ incredulous stares had been garnered as soon as min vocalised the idea — something that everybody seemed to rightfully be shocked about since it was unheard of min even interacting with most people outside of his group especially, girls (he was well aware of the long standing joke he was terrified of them) so for him to abruptly come out with saying he wants to appear on a variety show to have a fake marriage no less really does raise some alarm bells to who the person in front of them is.
of course there was a reason for this because truthfully, min really really doesn’t feel comfortable with going on a show like that and he’s all but too aware of the possible backlash he could face with fans for doing something like this, so in nearly every sense there are a lot more negatives than there are positives. however, that’s only if you didn’t factor the one positive which simply cancelled out any of the negatives: park dabin. although they had never met her all of his members knew about park dabin, hell, anybody remotely close to the youngest of the group could produce a five thousand word document on how dabin was a otherworldly being according to min.
min’s manager only had to mention she was apparently being brought onto the show too before min was asking when and where he could meet the producers of the show ( and to maybe send a few rather subtle unsubtle emails asking about dabin and if any couples had been decided yet — read has dabin been put in a couple yet and if so it better be me. ) but obviously the producers found that it would be far too kind to tell min if he was actually going to be with person who he joined the show for until he was set to film the official meeting between his soon to be ‘wife’.
while it all seemed like a great idea while he was sat at the dorms, jin hyung telling him how this could be good for him, filling him with a confidence he really didn’t have, especially when he was seated in front of at least ten different crew members primed to film his reaction at seeing his ‘wife’ for the first time. in some ways the camera feels oddly comforting, a normality now. it’s strange to think that being in front of cameras would be someone’s idea of normal but considering he practically grew up in front of them he’s more than familiar with the many lenses. what he isn’t familiar with is park dabin, not anymore anyway. god, he doubted she really actually remembered him, well, remembered how he would follow her around like the hopeless puppy he was.
caught up in his thoughts he almost - almost - misses the signal passed between crew members as a quiet tinkling of a bell cuts through the quiet buzz of the cafe, immediately garnering min’s attention. he’s stunned. staring? most definitely. stupid smile? certainly. aware that the cameras are filming all of this? now he is. whether the blush which rises on his cheeks is from the mere sight of dabin or the mixture of embarrassment running through him he doesn’t know. only when he’s become aware that he’s stayed sat for far too long ( only a few seconds realistically ) he stands up, already bowing his head trying to formulate some sort of coherent greeting.

❛ classic haechan. what a cutie, ❜ she said with a shake of her head, the grin on her lips never fading as she saw the boy himself out on the field. he’s the same age as her so they’re in the same class as well, and everyone knows just how much of a troublemaker the kid can be. but nevermind him — anna wants to focus her attention on a different boy, and his name starts with a j. and is that him flirting with her ?? she’ll definitely be giggling embarrassedly about this later in her room when he thinks back to it, because at the end of it all, anna is nothing but a school girl with a big crush. and how much more cliche can it get than being a school girl with a big crush on the older, third year star soccer player ?? it’s like she’s in a shoujo manga or something. ( or not, because the girl always gets with the guy in shoujo mangas and who knows what’ll happen with her and jake ?? )
❛ pretty girl ?? where ?? ❜ she looked around, even being extra enough to stand up and hold a hand above her eyes as if she was really searching for said ‘pretty girl’. her humorous antics are just a way to hide the blush forming on her cheeks, because as much as she and jake flirt around, his directness still makes her heart pound. she’s not used to the compliments and flirting, even after weeks of just this happening between the two. anyone who sees them interact can easily point out how much they’re into each other, but anna herself would just deny it. it’s just too good to be true… right ??
she sat back down on the bench, stuffing her hands into the pocket of her school blazer with a playful grin. she made sure to give him a little wave as he stood from his seat. ❛ good luck. think of me while you’re out there !! ❜ another harmless and very flirtatious phrase is thrown his way, and probably much bolder than she originally planned, but at least he’s leaving and she won’t have to sit there with him noticing her reddening cheeks.
the rest of the practice was spent as usual, with anna making her way back up to her spot on the bleachers and watching jake play while she listened to music through her earbuds. he seemed to improve a little bit and she was happy to witness that, but even more happy when practice was over and she was able to skip down the bleachers once more — this time to the locker room. ❛ is everyone decent ?? ❜ she called out, poking her head into the room with her eyes shut tight. this isn’t the first time she’s done this and the girl knows fully well that she doesn’t want to see any naked boys around, which is why she gave a good half hour before opening the door. ❛ i’m coming in !! ❜
for the remainder of practice jake’s performance seemed to improve marginally, that of course, only being after he returned to the field after talking to anna and sporting that plaster which while the others on the team teased him about his ‘questionable plaster’ he simply wore a proud smile, smug that he was the one wearing the plaster given to him by anna and nobody else. like she had said as he stood up from his seat, he did think about her while he was out there - like he did every other time before that. he really was starting to become the boy who thought about the girl they liked every minute of the day.
when they had all retreated to the locker room he was one of the first to get into the showers - conscious that either anna would be waiting too long for him to get ready or that she’d end up coming to the locker room and the latter proved to be the real outcome. luckily, he had just finished changing with slipping his t-shirt over his head when he heard anna’s voice, her head soon poking into view around the corner of the room which caused a smile to wash across his lips, he didn’t miss a few of the other boys turning to look at her too and he pushed away the small bout of jealousy and annoyance he felt at the small actions.
❛ they’re decent! ❜ jake shouted back before anybody could reply back, cutting off his friends who were undoubtably about to shout numerous stupid things instead. that’s why jake manoeuvred his way around the different bodies in the room until he was stood directly in front of her. ❛ honestly, looking at them decent or not damages you eyes either way.. i’d just keep them closed and you can just listen to my voice. ❜ he ignores the unanimous cries of offence and disgusted noises at how he’s acting but he doesn’t care if it brings some sort of smile to anna’s face or even better a laugh because to jake, nothing makes him feel happier or prouder than being the reason for them to happen.
❛ i brought another hoodie for you to wear on the way home by the way, you were looking kinda cold outside ❜ jake suddenly remembers taking a step back from anna to weave between people to get his bag and said hoodie which was resting on the bench beside it. ❛ wouldn’t want you freezing before i can get you that hot chocolate ❜ he says once he’s back in front of the dark haired girl, holding out his hoodie towards her, gently grazing his hand against her arm.

a small smile graced her lips upon hearing his words, and she didn’t object because we all know what min is saying is true. we can’t blame it all on park dabin here — his clothes are just so comfortable, oversized shirts and sweaters and all. and they all smell like him, so whenever she finds herself missing her boyfriend, she can just slip on one of his articles of clothing and call it a night. and she knows very well how much he enjoys seeing her wear his stuff, especially when they’re away from each other for long periods of time due to schedules.
she whined, a quiet and high-pitched sound leaving her lips as she snuggled her face into the soft fabric of his shirt. now this a rare dabin right here — is that aegyo in her tone of voice ?? she either must be really tired or yearning for attention, or maybe both. probably both. it’s not like she can go whining like this to her members without getting weird looks or a push away from her sudden neediness. it’s uncommon to see the main vocalist like this, so take advantage of it while you can !! ❛ are you talking about the black one with the gray writing on it ?? i slept in it last night, but you need to take it back because it doesn’t smell like you anymore. then you can ‘accidentally’ leave it here again later. ❜ the corners of her lips pulled upward in a shy smile, because all of this lovey dovey stuff still makes her bashful at times.
combined with the soft hum of his voice and the gentle caressing of her hair, the tension in her body was leaving very quickly. if only she could just freeze this moment right here, right now. she wouldn’t mind staying like this and she would give up anything for it to last forever, but alas, reality just gets in the way of everything. while they may have a lot of time left ( a few hours ) to spend with each other, there’s still all of the stress, schedules, and work to attend to right outside the door.
she won’t worry about that right now.
❛ don’t lie. ❜ she poked the male’s side at his compliment, something she has heard many times before and in many different ways. at least once every time they see each other he tells her how beautiful she is, and every single time you can see dabin get bashful and blush at his compliment. sitting up, she looked down at min with a disapproving scrunch of her nose. ❛ i’m not even wearing any makeup right now so i look weird. ❜
one thing min could be absolutely adamant about for the entirety of his life would be that park dabin was always a natural beauty, because as a trainee he can even remember the first time he saw her ( a image engrained into his memories ) and how his shyness and uncomfortable attitude around girls had skyrocketed because - who could look like that and be real? but as dabin sat up in front of him, her hair perfectly framing her bare face and her nose oh so adorably scrunched up he thanked whatever god was there that he was lucky enough to be able to see this sight and thats why he has to look away for a moment when the smile on his lips begins to hurt his cheeks a little.
❛ you don’t look weird at all, you don’t need makeup and i’m not being biased before you say i am! i’m just telling you what hundreds of people say. ❜ with his hand falling to the plush duvet after dabin had moved he reaches up to her face and gently cups it, his touches soft and cautious as if she’d break under anything less. that’s why his movements are slow when he leans forward and presses his lips against the soft fullness of her own, the kiss itself lasting only a few seconds before he pulled back and fell back into his former position but it’s enough to make his heart race and for him to have a few moments of doubt if she’d be okay with him doing something like that.
it was still alien for min to act like a couple with someone because truth be told he didn’t really know how to be a boyfriend, his knowledge coming from the various dramas that always seemed to be on the tv and his members and most of them were in the same ballpark as him with not really knowing anything too. it didn’t help in the early days of their relationship that he could barely hold her hand without blooming a hundred different colours of red and suddenly losing all ability to speak in general, nevermind in korean. but it was somewhat calming and comforting to know dabs was in the same situation, they were both getting used to this together and discovering how they’d develop though it.
❛ but you know what it was the black one, i’ll be welcoming it home with open arms.. i always leave my jumpers here accidentally, it’s a shame because i’m going to run out of clothes because of you ❜ he sulks for a moment, his hand moving to push invading strands from his vision as he stuffs his hands into the pockets of his jeans. ❛ i prefer your dorm to mine, can’t i just live here? or we’ll get our own place. ❜ min says, his thoughts being spoken aloud as he appreciates the quietness that elopes the pair, a comfortable silence like always when it’s shared between the two.
besides, the thought of him and dabin having a place of their own isn’t a completely terrible thought to have.

treating one of ( the many ) wounds jake receives is nothing new for anna, as she’s grown to be protective of him just as he is of her. while she’s almost 100% positive that her reason for being so caring with his wellbeing is different from his protectiveness over her ( she may or may not have a bit of a crush on the older male, but who doesn’t ?? he’s popular, attractive, and an excellent soccer player !! and she’s younger than him, so he probably feels obliged to look after her. ) she still tries to be a kind friend. ❛ don’t do that !! if you don’t clean it then it could get infected and then you’ll be out for good. and we can’t have our star player not on the field, psh. ❜ anna is a rather open girl, if you haven’t noticed already. and while many kids her age are more on the shy side in terms of flirting and playing around, anna likes to see herself as a bit more out there than that. and due to this personality of hers, she’s been able to befriend jake easily. it all worked out in the end for the girl, fortunately.
❛ and i do this because i want to. you look very cool when you’re out there kicking the ball around. ❜ she beamed at the other with a small nod. and of course she noticed the small group of soccer players pointing and laughing at her little exchange here with jake, which the female so confidently waved back at. they, of course, were poking fun and making jokes as always about jake and his ‘girlfriend’. she hears the teasing and rumors quite often around school, but she’d be lying if she said she hated the attention.
she finished putting the band-aid on his cut and, like mentioned before, it was a character band-aid. ❛ there you go, ❜ she sat, giving the male’s leg a very gentle pat to make sure the bandage stayed on. ❛ pohroro has never looked so handsome. ❜ and maybe she’s being a bit insensitive, because what kind of seventeen year old boy is okay with pohroro band-aids ?? she doesn’t think of that, however.
❛ my skating practice was cancelled today so i didn’t have anything else to do. ❜ and she ignored her mother when she told her to get some extra time on the ice anyway. ‘it doesn’t matter if your coach isn’t here. you need to work on your spins,’ she said. and anna was out the door before she could be nagged more. ❛ i’ll wait anyway. you can buy me a cup of hot cocoa on the way home. ❜
since moving to korea jake had grown used to his new found ( unsuspected ) popularity, considering when he had first arrived with his rusty korean skills - mostly due to the fact that his parents had simply opted to speak in english with him when they lived in canada - people seemed to be amazed by the prospect of a foreigner attending school with them and as he passed few the years he wasn’t blind to the attention he had received. however seeing him sat like this with anna, the default cocky smile which seemed to hold a permanent position on his face was instead replaced with a smile reserved for anna and anna only, people wouldn’t believe the stories and rumours that seemed to linger around the boy if you saw how he melted around the younger girl.
❛ you think i’m the star player? you shouldn’t let haechan hear that.. he’ll get offended since he’s always believed he’s the star. ❜ though it wasn’t a complete lie since the younger male in question did think he was the star player, jake was truly the ‘star player’ of the team if that was a thing. after all, his potential scholarship rested on his ability and the potential to be a star player which was why he was hardly ever allowed to skip practices ( even though he rarely dared doing that ) or his coach let him sit a game out. ❛ you know when you say you think i look cool out there boosts my ego right? especially when it’s a pretty girl watching and cheering for me. ❜
jake was a blatant flirt, like most seventeen year old boys his age. it was all harmless in his opinion, harmless innocent fun which nothing would come of it. normally he was confident in the small flirtatious remarks he’d make towards girls, but all of those remarks had gradually dissipated once anna had arrived in school and it left him in a position of being in unfamiliar territory because while he had been flirted with in the past the comments never got much of a reaction from him but that had obviously changed. anna was again an anomaly to this because a few words and he’d be looking at her wide eyed, choking on his own words and looking like a genuine mess.
once anna had finished patching him up he looked down at his knee to examine the latest plaster he was adorning because it was routine to him by now that it wouldn’t be a basic one. ❛ if i’m not asked to model for the plasters i’m going to sue. ❜ the plaster was soon hidden once he pulled up the long sock again, pushing himself off the bench to cautiously straighten out his leg to test the pain.
❛ starting to think you only talk to me and stay here so i’ll buy you things.. but you’re lucky i like you. ❜
It goes a little something like…

she’s grown comfortable with him. so much to the point that she found herself smiling and laughing easily in his presence, which is a rare occurrence for anyone other than her group members. it even took them awhile to have dabin open up, but once it happened, she became a wonderful new person. that was the same case with min as well, just slightly different. let’s never forget about the fact that she may or may not have had the cutest little school girl crush on him when they attended the same high school together.
it hasn’t even been a full minute yet dabin had already forgotten about the book she was just reading. while just a moment ago she was pretty invested in the story, the appearance of min on her bed was suddenly clouding her mind with other thoughts: min, min, and min. plus, that forehead kiss didn’t help at all. it only served to drag the girl even deeper into her fondness for him, like a great euphoria taking over while nothing else in their lives matters except being with each other.
oh, no. how cheesy can she be ?? she was honestly starting to get really embarrassed of herself, and quite shocked at all these feelings she was experiencing. is this what love is supposed to feel like ??
❛ i can understand that. you do have some of your stuff here, so. ❜ and that’s the truth. after staying over at each other’s dorms really often, you tend to leave some things behind both by accident and on purpose. dabin probably has a toothbrush or something here at his dorm just as she has a t-shirt or two of min’s here. it’s the closest they can get to being domestic when they live apart and with their idol lifestyles.
❛ talk to me, ❜ she said gently, wanting to hear the male’s voice. he could say a sentence that doesn’t make any sense at all yet she would still enjoy listening to him. the vocalist smiled softly, closing her eyes for brief moment as she cuddled into min’s side. ❛ i wanna hear your voice. ❜
❛ you mean you’ve taken some of my stuff, which is why it’s here? ❜ min challenged, a pointed look being sent dabs’s way along with an arching of his brow. it’s clear he’s playful, the accusing tone in his voice giving way to show he wasn’t serious, especially when he had probably even shared once before that he liked seeing dabin in his clothes, the image incredibly personal to him and honestly - he didn’t even know his clothes looked any good until he saw dabin wearing them.
it was nice that dabin and him could share some tiny aspects of their life together, even if it was just dabs leaving her jumper or some of her makeup in his dorm, because it made him realise that what he had with dabin was real, real enough that he had evidence of her presence around him nearly at all times. ❛ talk to you? normally you tell me to stop talking because i won’t shut up ‘because i’m rambling’ ❜ min chuckles, his fingers carding through her strawberry blonde hair, trailing down to the small of her back before repeating the action in a continuous loop.
❛ do you know i was actually looking for a top the other day until i realised it was here, i wanted to use it as an excuse to come round but i never found the chance.. keep it here and we’ll pretend i haven’t noticed it’s gone yet so i can get it back another day ❜
even though min was truly comfortable around dabs he couldn’t deny the fact that sometimes he didn’t know what to say to the girl who held his affections, the words of admiration and adoration like lead on his tongue, that and it didn’t help that sometimes his own native language seemed alien to him sometimes leaving him being unable to express some emotions he didn’t know how to communicate. plus min was always worried of disappointing dabs, like now she wanted to hear him and he didn’t want to disappoint her, god no. that’s why he was trying awfully hard to find something to talk about.
but with dabs he didn’t want to talk about his schedule or what the group was getting up to, that could be reserved for rushed messages being sent either way when the other was on the move. when he was sat with dabin, just with dabin, he liked to focus on the now and his reality with her.
❛ you look really beautiful today you know? just incase i hadn’t said it when i came in ❜ min injected, more than aware of her close proximity and how another wave of easiness washed over him, his eyes falling shut for a few moments longer than a blink. he wouldn’t lie, even if he was able to - which when it came to dabin he wasn’t able to. he was tired, stuck between constant filming and rehearsals alongside with being in ‘the dungeon’ similar to the one dabin found herself stuck in at the moment.
watching jake at soccer practice has become a common activity for anna. it’s not rare to see the sixteen year old sitting on the bleachers with a snack, staring out at the field where the soccer team practiced. even when she has a buttload of work to do she usually sits in the same spot ( the third row, smack center in the middle of the bench ) and works on whatever classwork assigned to her. whenever the male scores a goal or does well in general, she sees it. anna is jake’s biggest fan, honestly.
today must’ve been an off-day for her favorite soccer player, however, as he wasn’t doing too well on the field. this, of course, in turn made anna have an equally as off-day. that’s what happens between two close friends ( just friends ) — when one is having a hard time, the other goes through the same thing with them. and while anna may have a lot of worries about being annoying with her open and extra personality, she also can’t suppress the amount of care she has for jake.
so when she sees him fall and go limping back to the bench, anna drops everything to meet him down at the field. thankfully it’s just a cut on his knee and not a serious injury, but it was still a wound nonetheless. she rips open the alcohol wipe packet taken out of her mini first aid kit ( she always has one in her backpack ) before looking at the male with an apologetic look. ❛ this is gonna sting, ❜ she warns, then begins to clean the cut. ❛ you need to be more careful. i’m not always gonna be here to take care of you, y’know. ❜ @delvrium
football practices had to be one of jake’s favourite things in the world, understandably so due to his clear devotion and adoration towards the specific sport. that’s why when he’s on the field he feels his most confident, confident in his abilities and the fact that he can solidly enjoy each most times on that field. however today wasn’t his best day. no, in fact if he wasn’t a hundred percent sure he wasn’t just being overdramatic he was sure that today had to be one of his worst, in terms of playing especially.
whenever anna came to the field he had always coincidentally put on a better game, his friends would say it’s because he wanted to impress his ‘girlfriend’ which would normally proceed with jake giving whoever said that a quick shove and ignoring the abrupt clamminess in his hands and heavy beating of his heart because his friends weren’t wrong, he did want to impress anna. unfortunately even with the encouragement of anna being there his performance was anything but at it’s peak and the injury he had obtained was evidence of that.
jake wasn’t even surprised when he saw anna’s figure dropping down in front of him, the small first aid kit ( which upon it’s discovery had teased her about carrying a first aid kit with her, because logically what kind of sixteen year old carried a first aid kit with them !? ) in her grasp. true to her word to cut stings, not enough to draw a reaction out of the teenager but enough to be accurately described as uncomfortable.. the thing that causes a grimace to paint his lips which he’d blame on the sting of the alcohol in the fresh wound, was anna’s comment about not always being there to look after him.
❛ you don’t have to.. to do this you know, i used to get cuts all the time without cleaning them ❜ he adds, insuring he included the past tense since after he became friends with anna she had never let any injury he collected unseen and untreated. ❛ i thought you weren’t watching this practice today anyway? didn’t you need to go home early today? ❜ he enquired, distracting himself from gazing at the girl in front of him to looking around the field, eyes trailing after his friends who remained practicing.
❛ if i can manage to persuade coach to let me join in training again i’ll be finished late tonight anyway and i’d have to make you wait here so i can walk you home, it would be dark and i wouldn’t even consider letting you walk home alone ❜ jake announced plainly, he was openly protective of anna right now because that’s what friends are like, they’re protective of each other.. even if the butterflies he felt in his chest were anything but friendly when he found himself staring a little too frequently at anna whenever she was in the eye line. however he was serious about asking his coach to let him back in the game again, even though he was having a off day in his eyes he couldn’t afford to lose this opportunity, not with potential trials coming up.
