A scenario where Joshua is super nervous about your first child’s first day of school.
“but what if he gets his heart broken and all his friends leave him and he gets a bad grade and is punished for it or slips up and is punished for it and he doesn’t understand anything and they make him feel stupid”
your husband was pacing back and forth
“Shua. Our son is 4. He’s going to preschool. Nothing like that is going to happen.”
you were perched on the edge of the bed
watching him with amusement
as he wrung his hands and paced more
“but Y/N I’m worried he’s going to be so scared of being away from us.”
“ARE WE GOING TO GO YET BUY SCHOOL THINGS YET??”
Your 4 year old’s voice sang out from the hall
“Give your dad a moment, honey!”
you laughed a bit and looked back at your husband
“If anyone is scared of him being away from us, it’s you, Shua.”
You stood up and patted his back
“He’ll be fine! Don’t worry too much. He’s not even going to school until a week from now.”
you took his arm and pulled him up and out of the house
you and Joshua tailed your excited 4 year old
as he excitedly picked out his backpack
and pencils and pens
Joshua kept a reassuring smile on his face
as your son asked him for certain things
but he would squeeze your hand out of concern every now and then
the night before your son’s first day
Joshua double checked
triple checked
his backpack
he had spent days searching up recipes for a good lunch to make
to send along with your precious son on his first day
he sat in front of the dresser
picking out the absolute cutest outfit
“no son of mine is going to look anything less than the most good looking kid at school”
he declared
and you just let him be
if preparing everything for your kid would help Shua calm down
then so be it
then came the day
the fateful first day of school
as the two of you watched your son wave excitedly and run off to meet his teacher
Joshua took a deep breath
“y’know, that wasn’t too bad”
He smiled at you
“I was calmer than I thought I’d be!!”
You thought back to all the frantic worrying he had been doing and just laughed
you gently rubbed your infant daughter’s cheek as you laughed
“Hopefully her first day of school will go better for you”
My university went online, so hopefully that means I will have more time to write imagines. Although, I do have midterms next week, so there is no time right now
So I’ve finally gotten through all of my requests, and although I have some other projects I’m working on, I thought I might give everyone a chance to send in some requests!
Please see my Request Rules and my Masterlist just to make sure you follow guidelines and/or make sure you don’t repeat any requests I have already written.
I think the hardest part of going inactive for a while is building your account back up. I can see that a lot of my old regular readers aren’t reading much anymore, but I can see I’ve gained some new regular readers too. Thank you to everyone who is reading and who have followed!
genre: fluff (more focused on the storyline than on romance)
pairing: jimin x reader
requested by: no one
Inspired by the On MV. Where Jimin and the reader are surviving in a world that is as good as lost
“You’ve got to be kidding me, Y/N. There’s no way we can do anything other than stay hidden like this.”
Your sister refused to go outside of your home with you
you were running low on food
and you knew
that if you didn’t go outside of your home and tried to collect as much food as possible
it would all be gone
and all the hiding would be for nothing
it was dangerous outside
you knew that
but your desire to live was too strong to succumb to your fears now
you could hear the clanking of metal from the outside
as the patrols marched by
kicking up dust as they went
as you peered out the window
you could see people in the houses across from you doing the same
staring out their tiny windows
their large sunken eyes following the patrol with fear
you clenched your fists
“there’s no way I’ll continue to live like this while they parade about laughing at our pain. at dark, I will go outside.”
your sister protested
but she, too, was hungry
your parents were sick in bed
too weak
too frail to move
and you didn’t have the supplies to help them regain their energy
if they died
you would have to submit official papers to the government
and then
they would have permission to take you and your sister away to who knows where
you couldn’t let that happen
when it was dark
you wrapped what was left of an old towel around your shoulders and over your head
and slipped out of your hut
the ground was sharp underneath your bare feet
and all the dirt that accumulated onto them didn’t bother you at all
you couldn’t remember the last time you had a proper bath
you zeroed in on the large houses down the street
still bright
you could hear the laughter inside
and the jolly music blaring
you bit back the curses on your tongue
the stupid government
going on and on and on while all the people suffered under their tyrannical rule
then you saw it
the large boxes dumped out in the back of their houses
you approached as quietly as humanly possible
although you doubted they could hear you over the sound of their wealth
you lifted the lid of the box
jackpot
half eaten buttered rolls
chunks of good meat
and even full slices of pie
all piled in the box
food that would’ve been wasted if you didn’t come around
you carefully lifted the box off the ground
peeked into the other box
then picked that one up again
you heard a rustle in the bushes behind you
you froze
if they found you taking this
you would be dead
they would kill you and your entire family
slowly
and painfully
you stared at the bush as it rustled
and gave a sigh of relief when you saw a familiar face
your friend
Jimin
came creeping out of the bushes and lifted one of the boxes off your stack
“hurry they’re coming back”
he bent close to you and whispered
the two of you ran into the shelter of the dark
and crept back to your house
you decided quickly that jimin should stay there
so you wouldn’t risk him being seen by the patrols
the next morning
when everyone was allowed outside to work the fields
you and your sister went around with the food you had taken
and distributed them to the other people
allowing everyone a little extra cushion in their stomachs
as you bent over in the hot sun to pull the weeds from the ground
you found Jimin by your side
“They’re planning on getting rid of the sick”
he spoke to you in a low tone
you didn’t let your emotions show
as you continued to pull up the weeds
you took a slow deep breath
“Jimin we need to get out of here.”
“you know we can’t take your parents”
you clenched your fists
“i know, but I know they’d rather we be free than be subject to torture because of them”
Jimin nodded
and so your preparations began
albeit slowly
you wanted to be as cautious as possible
and have the best escape route
you didn’t want all your attempts to go to waste
you stockpiled all the food you could
setting aside portions of your rations every day
drying out the fruits and meat
packing it all in layers of paper in your personal chest
you started picking up all the pieces of fabric you could find
no matter how small
piecing them together to create as many blankets and clothes as you could
when you were outside
two weeks before you were due to escape
you were stopped by a patrol officer
“your name is Y/N, right?”
you nodded
“perfect.”
a horrid smile spread across his face
“you’re to be mine”
“w-what do you mean?”
he leaned down into your face
“don’t you want to be my prize? you get to live in my house and eat all the food you want. you wouldn’t have to be out there in the fields anymore. it is the best option for you. is it that horrid of an idea to take care of my kids?”
he leaned down further
so that his horrid breath was in your face
“but of course, you wouldn’t have to if you don’t want to. I’ll just take your sister.”
he stood up straight again
satisfied with the expression on your face
“you have three days.”
and he walked off
as soon as he was out of sight
you sprinted to jimin’s house
threw open the door and collapsed into his arms
he was shocked as he was just about to leave the house
when all of a sudden you had thrown yourself against his chest
your hands clutching his shirt
breathing heavily
he wrapped his arms around you automatically and carefully lowered you to the ground so you were sitting
he rubbed your back until you were calm enough to speak
“he- they- they want me to marry-”
Jimin narrowed his eyes
“They want to marry you?”
“he said if i didn’t, he would take my sister instead.”
Jimin hugged you tightly
“We won’t let him. We’re leaving. How long do you have?”
“he said i had three days to decide.”
“then we’re getting out of here. us and your sister.”
the look in Jimin’s eyes showed he wasn’t going to take no for an answer
“but why? wouldn’t it be better for all of us if I married him? I could get everyone much more food and I’m sure we wouldn’t have to worry too much anymore as long as I remain in his good graces.”
your heart screamed for you to think otherwise
just being in Jimin’s arms like this
you knew that you could never be in another person’s arms and feel this way
but
you would rather you could help the people around you out of this wretched lifestyle
than just be with the person you loved
“no. it wouldn’t be better at all.”
your heart skipped a beat
“Why? why wouldn’t it be better?’
it seemed like forever before Jimin responded
kissing your forehead gently
he replied
“because then I wouldn’t be able to do this.”
he embraced you even tighter
“listen, Y/N, if we leave now, we can make our plans from outside these walls. We can get stronger and find allies and then we can help everyone here. We were planning on escaping on our own anyway. We just have to leave sooner than we anticipated. So what about it? Are you going to do this?”
...
that night
you woke your sister and wrapped her in your makeshift blankets
you kissed your parents goodbye
but didn’t dare to wake them
it was better that they knew nothing
hand in hand with your sister
you gathered your things and hurried to the meeting point you and Jimin had arranged
you found him hiding in the shadows
away from the moonlight
you ran as quickly as you could beneath the trees
until you reached the wall
there you watched as the guards chatted casually
a distraction
that’s what you needed
Jimin picked up a rock from the ground
and threw it as hard as he could in the opposite direction of where you were
the guards took noticed
and being as stupid as they were
ran in that direction
as soon as they moved
the three of you ran out the walls
and of course
the archers on top of the walls took notice
launching arrows down at you
shouting for reinforcements
Jimin shielded you and your sister with his own body as you ran
and you could feel the scratch of the arrows as they whizzed past your body
nicking at your skin
...
“Y/N! Y/N! Wake up!”
you gasped for air as you shot up from your bed
sweat dripping down your face
Jimin sat beside you
his eyes wild
holding a candle to your face
“Are you okay? You were having a nightmare.”
Jimin set the candle down and used the shirt he had discarded to dry your face off
you took a moment to look around you
you took in the cozy cottage
the pretty curtains you and Jimin had embroidered
you took in Jimin
in his nightclothes beside you in bed
looking at you with eyes full of concern
you took in the smoothness of the blankets and the firm roof over your head
right
you were safe now
you were away from that nightmare of a world
it had been years since you had escaped
and you had managed to find a way to free the people
now
you were living in peace with the love of your life
you sighed in relief
sinking down against Jimin’s chest
“Sometimes I forget we’re safe”
your murmured
he stroked your back gently
“That world is hard to forget. But we’re safe now. We’re together and we’re safe. You don’t have to worry about running or escaping anymore. We’re safe.”
hello there! is it possible to request a angst-to-fluff jeonghan bullet point imagine? it's okay if you dont wanna do it but if you do, please tag me in it so I could be the first one to like it😂😂
Where the love you have for Jeonghan isn’t one that you can flaunt to the world
A/N: uh i kinda got carried away with this one, but enjoy!
you knew
from the day you were introduced to Jeonghan
that your life
was never going to be easy again
your heart sang at every smile he gave you
at how beautiful it felt
to hear your name come from his lips
but it ached
to know that he could never be yours
he was the eldest son of a distinguished family
the distinguished family that served yours
it was supposed to be beneath you to fall in love with him
but you couldn’t stop your heart from skipping a beat at the sight of him
and as you grew up alongside him
that love only deepened more
it didn’t help when he was assigned to your office at the company
when the two of you were old enough to take up positions
to be your secretary
your personal assistant
it was a cruel, cruel fate
you loved that he was always by your side
that you could see him much more than you had ever imagined
if fate didn’t permit you to love him
and for you to be by his side
at least
it allowed you to be with him
even if it was only a work setting
you always wondered if it was possible that he felt the same way you did
but he was far too good at hiding his emotions for you to figure that out
did he value your time as much as you valued his?
“Jeonghan?”
“yes, Y/N?”
“why is it do you think that our families are so removed from one another? why does your family have to serve mine?”
he stared at you when you asked that question
as if it was something he never expected you to ask
“It’s an old tradition that they can’t let go of, I suppose. But why does it matter to you? Don’t you benefit from having someone at your beck and call?”
his voice was cold
“You know I don’t think of you as my servant, Jeonghan. You’re a friend to me, not a tool.”
“There’s no way someone like you could want this system to change. If you’re trying to get me to say things against it and get me in trouble with your father, just be straightforward about your questions. Beating around the bush won’t achieve anything.”
you stared at him in shock
was this how he had felt this entire time?
all the time you’ve spent together
did he just see it as a chore?
a family obligation that dated back generations before you?
you had thought that you both made the most of the situation
but it seemed
that your feelings were very one sided
he didn’t reciprocate
and you didn’t know if that hurt you more
or if the cold look he had on his face as he spoke hurt more
...
“there has been a..... development.”
your father sat behind his desk and observed you and your siblings with a somber look
“the situation with the Yoon family has changed.”
“what do you mean?”
you asked but you were afraid to hear the answer
as much as it hurt you to see Jeonghan day by day
and know that he harbored such hate against you
you didn’t want him to go away
he meant too much to you
“we’ve looked over old papers, Mr. Yoon and I, and this arrangement that has been between our two families will no longer work out.”
“what is going to change about it then?”
your brother asked
“are we getting sued by them? are we going to have to repay the years of servitude? why is it only changing now?”
“it was based on years of misunderstandings and those misunderstandings have finally been sorted out.”
your father looked somberly at the group in front of him
he sighed
and looked down at his hands
“one of you is going to have to marry one of them to seal the deal. to make sure that our families are never subject to this kind of arrangement again.”
you froze
one of you
had to marry one of them?
you couldn’t deny that Jeonghan flitted through your mind at those words
you almost wanted to volunteer
to say that you would marry Jeonghan
for the sake of your families joining together
“I’ll do it”
the words didn’t come from your mouth
but from your brother’s
“I’ll marry one of them.”
your father nodded at him
“we will have that arranged”
your heart sank
was Jeonghan going to be your brother in law??
...
the next day at work
when you came into your office
you saw Jeonghan had piled his stuff into a box
his desk was cleaned off
“...Jeonghan? ....what’s going on?”
he looked at you and paused in his arranging for a moment
“I’m sure you heard the news, Y/N. I won’t be serving as your secretary anymore. I’m getting a promotion.”
of course
and that meant he was going to be in a different office
you wouldn’t see him anymore
you cast a disappointed look down at your shoes
“i see”
you didn’t catch Jeonghan looking at you curiously
“I’m not leaving this office. You’re not getting it to yourself. I’m just rearranging my things to suit my new work”
you heard him walk closer
and his feet was directly in front of your own
his hand came into view
held out to you
you looked up at him with wide eyes
“we’re working as partners now, Y/N. if you’ll have me”
he looked away
almost shyly
“i’m sorry for being so rude to you because of something you couldn’t control. I hope you’ll be able to put it aside so that we can work together.”
you beamed at him and took his hand
giving him a firm handshake
“guess you have to make it up to me then!”
...
from then on
you and Jeonghan worked together
and you finally got to see the real him
and that only made you love him more
of course
the marriage still loomed over your head
and you didn’t want to have to put aside your love for this situation
“Jeonghan did you hear about the marriage arrangement?”
Jeonghan paused in his work to look over at you
“Yes, I did. Why? Did you want it to be between us?”
that was not the response you were expecting to hear
“Wha- What do you- what do you mean??? When did I ever???? Say such a thing??”
you were flustered beyond belief
Jeonghan smiled at you and looked sort of shy again
“I.... I can’t say I haven’t noticed your feelings for me.”
Oh no
he knew
he knew you liked him
it was the end of the world
you couldn’t be more embarrassed than this
“I’m so sorry.”
you blurted out
“i didn’t mean for you to- oh my gosh I can’t- this is so embarrassing- please don’t think that I want a marriage between us- i mean i do, but not in this sense-”
“what would you say if I told you I wouldn’t mind?”
“i’m not trying to use you, I swear- wait what?”
he walked over to your desk
and looked down at you seriously
“if it’s for the sake of our family relations, I wouldn’t mind.”
your heart sank
oh yes
that
“But! I also wouldn’t mind because you’re interesting and I’m attracted to you.”
you froze
“I know what you must be thinking. ‘Oh but Jeonghan has been so mean! How could he ever like me.’“
he blushed a little and looked down
“I.... I’ve liked you for a long time too, but I couldn’t help but be resentful of your position. Of mine. I knew that we could never be together and so I tried to convince myself that you were just another one of those Y/L/N’s that were oppressing my family. But now that’s over and I felt like i really needed to come to terms with these feelings and tell you.”
You couldn’t believe that this was happening now
he took your hand and gently kissed the back of it
“would you do me the honor of being mine?”
...
fortunately you didn’t have to go through with the arranged marriage to unite the family thing
so you were free to be with Jeonghan
and take your relationship at your own pace
it was fun at work
sneaking around during work hours
holding hands underneath the table during meetings
sharing knowing smiles with him as you laughed at inside jokes
and just enjoying being with him every day
it had been one hell of a ride
of unrequited love
but in the end
you couldn’t be happier
you knew this as you stared at Jeonghan’s profile as he read his book next to you on the couch
he stopped reading and looked at you
“what are you smiling at?”
“nothing!!”
“hmmm I wouldn’t say it’s nothing”
he teased you by tapping your forehead with his finger
I meant to write Valentine’s imagines for all of seventeen and for BTS as well but I’ve gotten slightly busy. Would everyone like to see those even if it’s late or should I just not write them? Please lemme know!
Cheol had lost the bracelet that you had given him
for your anniversary this year
It was the bracelet that matched with yours
the one that signified that no matter how far apart you were
you were always together
it had been a great comfort to you
seeing him wearing your bracelet
in the pictures that he sent you from their tour
in the fancams you saw of their performances
the little glimpses of the bracelet you gave him
made you feel like he was thinking of you
even if he was on the other side of the planet
but he lost it
it was gone
disappeared somewhere in Indonesia
and no one had seen it
not even the staff
you were very upset about it
but you didn’t want to convey that to Cheol
when he told you
he was really sad as well
and concerned of your feelings
you tried to reassure him that it didn’t matter whether there was a bracelet or not
as long as you had him
and it was true
that’s how you felt
but it couldn’t stop you from feeling disappointed that you no longer had those matching bracelets
and you couldn’t help but beat yourself up over feeling so sad over something that was just so
materialistic
it didn’t help that Valentine’s Day was that week as well
what a great Valentine’s present
hearing that your boyfriend had lost your meaningful gift to him
especially since
you knew that he was busy that week
and couldn’t spend valentine’s with you
...
coming home from a long day at work
you were shocked to find Cheol standing at your door with a bouquet of roses
“Cheol! What is this- I thought we weren’t doing anything for Valentine’s because you were busy!”
“I thought I’d surprise you! Work is always hard on you.”
He embraced you and together you entered your apartment
inside he had set up a table and dinner
and you could feel the weariness from the day at work fade away at the sight
“you really didn’t have to...”
he just smiled and led you to the table
after you ate
he took your hands in his
and looked deep into your eyes
“Y/N. I just wanted to let you know that I’m very very very sorry that I lost your bracelet. I know how much it meant to you and it meant a lot to me too. I know this would never replace it, but I wanted to give you something.”
he opened a small case and showed you a beautiful set of promise rings
“Cheol! Wow this- they’re beautiful”
you let him slip the ring onto your little finger
and you slipped his onto his finger as well
resting it on top of the ring he wore for Seventeen
“This way you’ll never lose it”
you teased him
and he laughed and kissed the ring on your finger gently
“I’ll never lose anything precious like this again.”
