“I don’t like you.”
Jaehyun paused scrolling through his phone, shifting his attention to you seated across from him, a smug look decorated on your face.
He pocketed his phone away. “As I’ve been told," he said unfazed.
“Your face pisses me off.”
“Funny, people usually tell me the opposite.”
"I don't give a rat's ass on what other people think," you spat. Grabbing your iced beverage, you took an obnoxious sip, purposely of irritating the man in front of you.
His left eye just barely twitches...
.. and there goes a sigh.
Perfect.
"What do you want?" he groaned.
You smirked. "I’m not paying next month’s rent.”
He scoffs, “Careful, (name). You sound like you're falling in love with me."
You couldn't help but roll your eyes, slamming your drink back on the table. Both of you are currently at a quaint café, situated at a table next to their window wall. The sun beamed against your skin, warming you from the cool air blasting from their central AC system. It gave you both a clear view of passerby’s as you both indulged in your beverages, but it’s hard to enjoy your drink when your roommate refuses to sympathize with your financial situation.
"Come on," you whined. "I haven't been working the past few weeks because of finals, and I barely have enough money in my account to last me a week.”
Jaehyun shrugged his shoulders. "Not my problem. We had an agreement to split the rent, so you have to uphold your end of the agreement."
You could feel a vein on your forehead throbbing. "Jae, you're literally swimming in money, what the fuck. Just cut me some slack for this month and I'll pay next month's."
“Nope,” he remarked, pulling his phone out.
“I’ll pay it in full.”
“What do you want for dinner?”
"Don't ignore me!"
"I think I’m in the mood for some Thai food.”
You see him scrolling on your phone, most likely looking for nearby Thai restaurants to order takeout from. You rolled your eyes. “Doesn’t matter to me,” you shrugged. “Just don’t order from that pizza place again. I got food poisoning from there.”
He rolled his eyes, “Listen, it was Mingyu’s idea to try that place out.”
“Well, tell your friend Mingyu that he has shitty tastes in pizzas.”
“Noted,” he chuckled.
The memory of it sent chills down your spine. You remembered when he came home one day, a warm box of pizza in hand, freshly made as you could tell from its divine smell wafting in the room. You were chastised to steal the box away from your roommate and swallow it all up in the confines on your bedroom, only to be blocked by Jaehyun when he held a hand out to stop you, already seeing the cogs turn in your head as you eyed on the box.
It was odd to see the restaurant’s name not imprinted on the box of the cardboard box, only a generic clipart of an Italian street with the word ‘PIZZA’ enlarged across it. But you didn’t pay much attention to it then, your starving self was more focused on eating your delectable dinner and satiating your tastebuds.
However, that night ended with you and Jaehyun deteriorating in your respective bathrooms, begging to any living deity out there to grant you mercy from the horrendous suffering you both went through as a result of that pizza.
Needless to say, it took you three months to get over your pizza-phobia.
The bell at the café’s entrance rang, bringing your attention back to reality. You looked past Jaehyun to catch a glimpse of the customer that just walked in, only for you to drop your jaw.
"Oh my god.." you murmured.
Your roommate stopped what he was doing, aware of the dreadful tone behind your words. He looked at you with concern.
"What’s wrong?" he asked.
The customer lets out a sigh, a rush of cool air brushing against his flushed skin before scanning the interior.
"He... He's here.”
He raised an eyebrow, “Who’s here?”
What a lucky day it is for you because that same customer managed to catch your eyes directed on him, sending your body into a state of panic. Fuck, he wasn’t supposed to see you! He slowly starts to stride over to your table, prompting your fight or flight to kick in at full force.
“Quick, my ex just walked in! Pretend that we’re dating.”
“What the hell is goi–”
“(Name)! Is that you, I see?”
You gulped, fruitlessly easing your nerves, your mind running a mile a minute. You could feel your hands feeling clammy and internally curse yourself. You can feel bile forming in the back of your throat as you mustered up the courage to look up at your ex
You feigned a smile. “N-Nice to see you, too, Seokmin. Didn’t know that you were in the area.”
Jaehyun raised an eyebrow at you at the mention of your ex’s name.
“Yeah, my girlfriend asked me to pick up some coffee for her and saw this place in passing.”
You felt yourself quiver for a second at the mention of girlfriend, but rebounded when he looked back at your roommate, as his back was faced to the entrance.
“Oh, my apologies! You had company here, it seems. Your name?”
“Oh, him,” you gulped. “He’s–”
“Her boyfriend, Jeong Jaehyun,” he responded
Your jaw goes slack from the latter’s quick response, seeing how he stood up from his seat to shake the latter’s hand. Seokmin looks back at him in shock, processing his words.
“O-Oh, you’re her boyfriend?”
Jaehyun nodded in response, his signature dimpled smile plastered on his face as he reached his hand out for a shake. “Indeed, I am, and I’m loving every second of it,” he chuckled. “And you are?”
Your ex returned the handshake, or more like only gripped his hand, seeing as how neither party didn’t move any more than that. The atmosphere surrounding the two men suddenly turned too thick for you to bear, further failing to quell the anxiety surfacing at every corner of your body. You didn’t know what to expect when Jaehyun surprisingly acquiesced to your plan, but the rigid stance in your ex’s posture is more than what you expected in response.
“Didn’t think that (name) would move on so quickly,” he commented.
Jaehyun narrowed his eyebrows. “What’s that supposed to mean?”
“We had history, you know.”
“No, I don’t know, because you were never brought up in our conversations.”
“She’s never mentioned me in passing?”
Jaehyun faked pondering for a moment.
“Nope,” he answered, pointedly popping the last syllable, “probably not important enough to talk about.”
“A-Anyways,” you intervened, “i-it was really nice meeting you again, but my boyfriend and I were in the middle of an important discussion before you came over, if you don’t mind.”
Your ex relents, finally letting go of Jaehyun’s hand before facing you again with a forced smile.
“Of course, where are my manners?” he remarked. You noticed how tense his jaw become. “It was nice seeing you again, (name). Hope to see you around.”
“Hope that you don’t,” you heard Jaehyun mumbling under his breath. You sucked in a breath when your ex turned to glare at your ‘boyfriend’, but quickly recomposed himself before waving at you, and only you, goodbye.
You let out a bated breath you didn’t know you were holding in. That whole interaction drained all the energy out of your body, slumping your figure against your seat as Jaehyun sat back down. You couldn’t help but sneak a glance at your ex standing by the counter, waiting for his order you deduced. You should’ve known it was inevitable to meet your ex one day, but that doesn’t mean that you were fully prepared for the moment.
You bit on your lip.
“Thanks… for covering me back there,” you softly spoke.
In your peripheral, you could tell that his face remained impassive, but you can from his eyes that he had question he wanted to ask, prodding you for some answers.
“Yes, it’s that ex from last year,” you grimaced.
“The one you called crying to me while I was on my date?”
You winced at the memory of it. It wasn’t your intention to interrupt his date back then. Your mind was voided of all logic, too distressed to remember that your roommate had made plans that evening. You only thought about that breakup phone call you had minutes prior, and how you needed someone to grieve to.
And the first person to come to mind was Jaehyun.
Short to say, you’ve never seen him go on any more dates after that, stating his reasons that your well being was his first priority. You offered multiple times to set him up with blind dates in repayment of screwing up his date night, but he rejects at every attempt you made. Sorry, but your breakup messed with my dating game, so save yourself the hassle, he said one time.
“Y-Yeah.”
“Kind of figured, his name sounded familiar” he shrugged, taking a sip of his drink. “Still can’t believe you made me ditch my hot date for your snotty self.”
“You could’ve just said no,” you scowled.
“I find it rather insulting that you’d think I could leave you alone like that. You were sobbing so loud that my date heard you, for god’s sake.”
Nevertheless, you can feel his fingers encapsulating your hand, thumb rubbing against the back of your fingers. It certainly did help calm you down, but your heart starts racing once again for a whole different reason.
“But… you did good,” he murmured.
You looked at him confused.
“Your ex, I mean,” he clarified. “Back then, you couldn’t bear to hear the sound of his name, and yet you were able to face your ex in person even if it was all fake. That’s come to show that you’ve healed from back then, or at least still healing. But still, that’s not an easy thing to do.”
He gives your hand a firm squeeze, and your chest warms at the kind gesture.
“I know I don’t say it often, but I’m proud of you, (name). Always am and always will.”
If you two weren’t in a public place, you could cry right then and there–curse the heavens for putting you at an unfavorable setting. You swore you felt somersaults in your chest, endorphins coursing through your veins. You squeezed his hand back in response, a smile gracing your features to mask the turmoil in your heart and mind.
“Thank you, Jaehyun. That means a lot to me.”
He smiles back, and the Gods whispered to you at that moment that no one could compare to the man before you. Nodding his head towards the exit, he gets up from his seat.
“How about we go get dinner and rewatch some High School Musical at home? Sounds good to you?”
You’re already up and out of you seat, thrilled to spend any waking moment with your favorite moment by yourself.
“Does that mean I’m not paying next month’s rent?”
“Absolutely not.”

What taeyong's perfume did you purchase? What did you think of it?
i only bought jo malone’s blackberry & bay! it’s a light scent tbh, which i can see why he chose it as he is not a big fan of strong scents. fruity due to the blackberry but the bay part of it kind of throws me off LMAO
like. at first you smell the blackberry and it’s like “ouuu i like it” but then you get after-scent of bay and then it’s like “… oh, uh..” so it’s an okay scent for me
genre. romance, royalty au, lowkey there’s some sexual tension
warnings. implied smut??, not proofread
author’s note. wow it’s been a hot minute.
[ 10:24 PM ] “Tell me, my prince,” you traced along his jawline, eyes never straying away from his alluring lips. Countless times have you gained the liberty of feeling them pressed against your own, tasting his love. And that privilege went further beyond your lips. You felt them against the expanse of your neck, down the slope of your shoulders into the dips of your curves. He travelled north and high to south and deep on your body, and you let him. And even when you were apart from him, you could still feel the ghosts of his kisses on your skin. Enthralling, he was, for you could never get enough of it.
“To what do I owe the pleasure of your presence?” you asked.
You can feel his eyes on you, the corner of his lips lifts a fraction to which your eyes took notice of. You were already aware of his response to your question, having known him thoroughly in and out on the back of your hand. But you still wanted to hear him say it, to hear what your royalty has to say.
“Is it wrong for the prince to visit his lover?” he chuckles.
“Oh, forgive me, Your Highness. I was unaware of this relationship we had together.”
“Blasphemous, how unforgiving of you to say after calling me your prince.”
“Your Highness, with all due respect, if I may say,” you jested, eyes filled with mirth, “you never once established the title you’ve bestowed upon me.”
“Oh, then I must beg for your forgiveness.” And with that, he lifts a hand to your cheek, thumb softly caressing your skin. You gazed back up to his brown orbs and, Gods, they were the prettiest browns you’ve ever casted your eyes upon. It would be a bitter injustice to call them any short of enchanting. Browns so deep, yet so warm—you could get lost in them forever.
He inches closer to you, closing the distance between your bared souls as his warm breath tickles your chin. You’re one step closer to salvation, your willpower holding you back from sinning you back to hell.
“In this lifetime, if you allow me, you are my lover, as much as I am yours. And in another life, I promise,” he whispers one last time before reaching solace in a place he craves so much, “… I will never forget you, for your and my souls are of the same.”
You’ve tasted the Gods and the heavens above, and you’re not planning on coming back down so soon.
i held off on commenting on this matter because i was just seething in rage and shaking with anger to the point i almost broke my phone in half. buuuut since i’m in a better headspace now, i would like to take some time to discuss on this matter.
in light of some recent events and some profound information i have received from one of my longtime followers, there seems to be a surge of anon hate circulating on tumblr in regards to fanfic and feedback/criticism. while it is inevitable that writers can’t have everyone to enjoy or like their fics, there is very fine line between constructive criticism and just plain rudeness. your wording and tone of your statements and questions can tether to either genuine concern or plain ignorance. and while some commentaries are appreciated, do not tell a writer on how to write their stories. it is their work—their fleshed out idea—and i know damn well that they didn’t hire you to be their editor. if you enjoy it, great. that’s awesome. if you don’t like it, fine. move on then. do not tell a writer that their works ‘suck’ or is ‘trash’ because all you’re doing is belittling their passion when they worked so hard to get to where they are now.
so please, be respectful to everyone, regardless if they come off as a friend to you. it doesn’t matter if you want to seem cool or laidback or not uptight or whatever it is you’re trying to present yourself. you don’t know them, and they don’t know you. if you have a question about a plot or a certain characteristic in a fic, then please ask away, but refrain yourself from saying anything unnecessary that could potentially be interpreted negatively to them. treat them as how you would like to be treated.
do not be demeaning. do not be disrespectful. do not be an asshole. do not, do not, do not.
gotta love when ppl feel the need to announce they stopped reading someone’s fics, like please if they need attention so bad they gotta turn anon off 😂
i’m sorry bubs i might be sleep deprived or a little out of it rn but. can you clarify that for me please LOL i’m a little confused by your statement here 🤧
