you always thought meeting your soulmate would be this dramatic display with fireworks and the cheesy 'stare into each-others eyes' segment. or maybe your heart would skip a beat, and the world would tilt a little.
well, safe to say the world did tilt, just not in the way you would've expected.
keep reading under the cut!
more writing under the pictures!
you groaned, eyes squinting up at the culprit. "i am SO-SO SORRY!" he started off before she could get a word in, "my brakes weren't working and-" you cut him off before he could continue spewing nonsense.
"it's you.." you muttered, staring at the 'tattoo' on your wrist that previously showed a random time, which now read '00:00:00'. it burned with a stinging sensation as it flashed multiple zeros.
"yes, i know i was the one that hit you but-" woonhak continued, kinda annoyed. he was obviously apologizing!
honestly how stupid was he? could he not feel this burning feeling on his arm?
"no- i mean-" you were cut off when your brother, taesan, came running from around the corner. "are you okay?" he glanced at your slightly disheveled person,
he helped you to your feet, making you lean on him. "woonhak you are so dead later." he glared at his younger friend who gulped.
"once again i'm sorry!" he bowed at a 90 degree angle as the siblings walked away.
"you idiot-" he started, hitting the back of your head. "ow! i was the one that got hit!" you shoved him, momentarily forgetting about the soulmate situation as your older brother dragged you off to the nurses office.
the two of you sat on the swings of some empty park. "so.." you started "should we address the elephant in the room?" you bit your lip awkwardly.
woonhak cleared his throat, rolling up his sleeve, as you did the same. "i never thought i would meet my soulmate via bike crash." you scoffed lightly.
"hey! for how long will you bring that up?" he whined, you laughed at him.
"just teasing!" you giggled, "what should we do?" you asked, your smile slowly falling.
"let's just go slow, theres no need to rush into things" he started, "well figure things out together." he looked at you.
"together." you repeated with a smile.
a few months later
the two of you walked hand in hand, wandering around the school, your feet taking you anywhere.
you stop at a familiar spot. "oh hey, do you remember this place?" you glanced at woonhak, who sighed. "yes, I hit you here.." he playfully rolled his eyes.
"you know.. maybe getting hit wasn't all that bad." you gave a cheeky grin as he complained "you dragged it on for a while year just to say that now?" he whined.
"If it means i get to spend forever with you."
"how cheesy." he complained, but he blushed nevertheless.

◞ ʚɞ cw suggestive doesn’t go to pure smut, marking, making out, dry humping, down bad bonedo, ot6, request <3
➷ ︵ park sungho
definitely the one who bought you lingerie, he’s a sucker for seeing his lady all pretty. Surprise him with it one day after he comes home from practice, and he’s all over you, mouthing your neck, whispering praises into the shell of your ear. He’s whining at you, begging you to come to bed, kissing the of your mouth, you love seeing him needy. Once he finally gets you in the bedroom you will not be out for another two hours.
➷ ︵ lee riwoo
doesn’t have much of a thought about lingerie until you surprise him, wearing a gorgeous red and silky set with your makeup done. Riwoo’s mouth practically drops to his feet. For the rest of the night you have him in the palm of your hand, melting into a puddle when you touch him. He shyly will press kisses against your neck as you coax him to your bed, and of course he’s already whimpering before anything even happens.
➷ ︵ myung jaehyun
also bought you lingerie, he loves the idea of spoiling you filthy, and also the sight of you in a sexy black set. He’s going to want you on top of him, kissing him silly as he ruts up into you, seeking the friction from your clothed cunt. He gropes you like he’s never been able to touch you before. He doesn’t care that you both are actively ruining your lingerie, he can always buy another set, all he cares about is you, and how nice the material feels against his hands as he runs them all over your body.
➷ ︵ han taesan
secretly has a thing for lingerie but never told you out of fear you wouldn’t be up to it, though was pleasantly surprised when you’re wearing the cutest pink set when he comes home from practice. Instantly VERY possessive of you, feeling you up, biting down on the most sensitive points of your neck. He wants everyone to know you’re his and nobody else, he cannot fathom the thought of someone else seeing you this sexy. Trust he will be between your legs for HOURS.
➷ ︵ kim leehan
bought you the lingerie, but he doesn’t want you to surprise him, he wants to personally dress you. He’ll be slow and teasing while taking off your clothes, slipping your top off and pulling your pants down, being nothing but disgustingly sweet to you as he kisses and worships your body. It’s the worst when he gets to your bra and underwear, he takes his sweet time, drawing out the reactions he desires. Kissing up your leg, but instead of mouthing your heat, he pulls up the lingerie bottoms. He finally gives you what you want when he’s finished, praising you for how good you were.
➷ ︵ kim woonhak
huge lover boy, and is honest to god into whatever you’re into. Like riwoo, lingerie never really crossed his mind until you come up behind him, your arms circling around his waist with the most gorgeous white set on. Practically drools and is instantly pulling you to the bedroom, his lips already connected to yours as you crash onto the bed. He’s swearing into your lips, his fingers already circling around your clit. A level of neediness he has never felt washes over his system and best believe he’s not letting off until you’re both milked dry. (since then he’s been buying you them himself because it turns him on that much.)
try to tell who’s moe’s bias challenge level impossible
leehan keeping a stress toy in his hands while he records his lines might have me geeked lol
he likes playing with your hands in public, lacing your fingers with his and toying with your fingers. he’ll grip your hand tight when he’s excited or squeeze in random pulses when he’s bored. other times, he likes to watch your reaction as he cracks your knuckles, pressing a kiss to your hand afterward as an apology for surprising you.
he smiles thinking of how your naturally warm hands are a perfect match for his larger, noticeably colder ones. one of his favorite parts of winter is getting a mini hot pack and pressing it between your palms as you hold hands. of course he keeps your intertwined hands in his coat pocket to keep you extra close <3
and that’s not all; your hair is another perfect way to destress for him. one minute you’ll be cuddled up with him and the next he’s worked cute hair styles without even realizing it. he rarely ever tangles knots in your hair, and on the rare occasion that he does, he’ll take the time to be extra gentle as to not tug on them and hurt you. he loves buying you hair accessories and ribbons to doll you up, grinning and calling you pretty as he decorates your hair.
leehan also loves how.. pliable you both are. he’ll throw your legs over his and make a pretzel out of your bodies on the couch just because he’s bored. or sit in what seems to be the most uncomfortable position ever but claim he’s “found the perfect spot”. you’re convinced he’ll have back issues by the time he’s 25.

۶ৎ ALTERNATIVE : pepero challenge w/ boynextdoor ۶ৎ PAIRING : boynextdoor x reader ۶ৎ GENRE(S) : fluff !! (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ ۶ৎ WARNING(S) : boynextdoor being losers and chalant over you !! ۶ৎ WORD COUNT : 0.4k - 0.7k words / member
۶ৎ A/N : this has been in my drafts for so long !! I've been dying to share it with y'all !! kudos to our han taesan for the idea! ~ 😉
의 ˑ ִ SUNGHO ◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ acts so nonchalant about it at first, when you suggest doing the pepero challenge, he just raises an eyebrow and goes "Really? That's so cliche," but you can see the tips of his ears turning pink
۶ৎ tries to play it cool, crossing his arms like he's too mature for this, but then he's like "Fine, but only one round" and you know he's trying not to smile
۶ৎ weirdly competitive about it once it starts : "Wait, we need to do this properly. Hold the pepero straight. No cheating."
۶ৎ you're like "Sungho, it's not that serious…" and he just gives you this look, “Everything I do is serious." He even makes you restart once because you laughed and broke the pepero
۶ৎ the actual challenge has him STRESSED. You start nibbling from your end and he's so focused, barely blinking, but the closer you get, the more you can see him struggling. His jaw tenses and he slows down significantly when there's only a tiny bit left. You can practically hear him calculating the exact millimeter he needs to stop at to not lose but also not... you know~
۶ৎ pulls away first but tries to make it seem tactical : "See, I have self-control," he says, but his voice is half an octave higher than normal. You're grinning at him like "Sure, self-control, okay Sungho" and he just clears his throat and looks away. His whole face is red now and he's trying so hard to maintain his composed image
۶ৎ but then his pride gets the better of him. Five minutes later he's like "Actually, I wasn't even trying that time. Let's go again." And you're like "Oh? Okay 👀"
۶ৎ this time he's DETERMINED, makes it way closer than before, and you can feel his breath hitch when you're millimeters apart. Someone (probably Jaehyun) walks in and yells "OH???" and Sungho jumps back so fast he almost falls off the couch
۶ৎ afterwards he pretends nothing happened but keeps looking at you. He's just doing normal things, scrolling on his phone, but you catch him glancing at you every few seconds. When you ask if he's okay, he says "Why wouldn't I be okay? I'm perfectly fine. I'm very normal." Nothing about his behavior is normal. He's been reorganizing the same shelf for ten minutes
۶ৎ later that night you get a text from him :
"If we do that again, no audience. They're too loud and distracting."
"who said we're doing it again?"
"I'm just saying IF. Hypothetically."
۶ৎ two minutes later :
"But we could though." You know he's lying in bed overanalyzing the entire thing after that !!
의 ˑ ִ RIWOO◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ gets so shy when you first suggest it. His eyes go wide and he's like "W-wait, the pepero challenge? With me?" like he needs clarification. You're nodding and he just laughs nervously, running his hand through his hair. "Okay... okay yeah, we can do that," he says softly, but he won't make eye contact with you. He's already blushing and you haven't even opened the pepero box yet
۶ৎ needs a full minute to mentally prepare himself. You're holding out the pepero and he's just staring at it like it's a live bomb. "Riwoo, it's just a pepero," you laugh, and he nods quickly like "Right, yes, just a pepero. Normal pepero. Regular challenge." He takes a deep breath like he's about to perform on stage. His hands are fidgeting and you find it so endearing that you almost let him off the hook. Almost…
۶ৎ when you finally start, he's SO careful and gentle. Each bite is tiny and deliberate, and his eyes are locked on the pepero like he's concentrating on the hardest choreography of his life
۶ৎ the closer you get to the middle, the more his composure cracks. His eyes flicker up to meet yours for a split second and he immediately looks away, ears burning red
۶ৎ starts giggling nervously when there's barely any pepero left. He can't help it, soft little laughs keep escaping and it makes the pepero wobble between you. "Sorry, sorry," he keeps whispering, trying to stop smiling but failing completely. You're grinning too because his laugh is so cute and infectious. He's covering his mouth with his hand like that'll somehow help him focus, but it just makes it more obvious how flustered he is
۶ৎ pulls back at the last possible second, turning his whole body away. "Ah, I can't, I can't," he's saying, waving his hands in front of his face. He's fully hiding behind his hands now, peeking at you through his fingers. "That was so close, oh my god." You ask him if he's okay and he just nods vigorously, still not looking at you directly. "I'm good. Just... wow."
۶ৎ adorably jumpy for the rest of the day. Every time you walk into the room, he startles a little and gives you this shy smile. The other members definitely notice and start teasing him. "Riwoo hyung, why is your face red?" Woonhak asks innocently, and Riwoo throws a pillow at him like "It's not! It's just warm in here!" It was not warm in there
۶ৎ later he sends you a voice message instead of texting. His voice is soft and a bit mumbly : “so... that was fun. Stressful, but fun. Maybe we could... I don't know, try again sometime? Only if you want to though! No pressure. Okay, bye."
۶ৎ you can hear him smiling through the phone and there's a long pause before he actually hangs up, like he wanted to say more but chickened out. You save the voice message because it's too precious to delete !!
의 ˑ ִ JAEHYUN◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ is IMMEDIATELY on board with zero hesitation. The second you mention the pepero challenge, his whole face lights up like you just offered him tickets to his favourite artist's concert : "YES! Let's do it right now!"
۶ৎ he's already grabbing the pepero box before you can even finish your sentence. This man has no chill and no shame. "I've been waiting for someone to ask me this," he admits with the biggest grin, and you can't tell if he's joking or not
۶ৎ he makes a whole production out of it. "Wait, wait, we need the right atmosphere," he declares, dimming the lights and queuing up some dramatic music on his phone
۶ৎ you're laughing like "Jaehyun, what are you doing?" and he's completely serious, "This is a MOMENT, okay? We have to do it right." He even tries to get the other members to be the audience but Sungho immediately refuses and walks away
۶ৎ when you actually start, he's way too confident at first. He's making eye contact with you the entire time, not even looking at the pepero, just staring directly into your soul with this playful smirk. He's taking big bites too, closing the distance way faster than you expected. You're starting to panic a little, "Wait, Jaehyun, slow down" and he just winks at you. This boy is dangerous
۶ৎ but then he gets close and suddenly the confidence wavers. You're almost at the center and you see his eyes widen slightly, like the reality of the situation just hit him. His next bite is noticeably smaller. Then even smaller. "Oh," he says around the pepero, and his ears are turning red. The playful energy shifts and he’s now more nervous and genuine, and honestly? It makes your heart race even more
۶ৎ he doesn't pull away though—he commits. Your lips barely brush and the pepero snaps, and Jaehyun makes this surprised little noise before pulling back with the brightest, most embarrassed smile you've ever seen on him. He's immediately covering his face and laughing, falling back onto the couch. "Oh my god, oh my god, that actually happened. We actually just—" He can't even finish his sentences, just pointing between you two with wide eyes
۶ৎ the teasing starts IMMEDIATELY after. "So... we're like pepero challenge official now, right?" he jokes, but there's a hint of hopefulness in his tone
۶ৎ for the rest of the day, he keeps bringing it up. "Remember when we did the pepero challenge? That was SO crazy. Anyway—" The members are so tired of hearing about it. Taesan literally leaves the room at one point
۶ৎ he absolutely texts you that night, multiple times :
"that was fun right?"
"we should do it again sometime haha"
"unless you thought it was weird?"
"no wait don't answer that"
"actually do answer that"
"I'm going to stop texting now" (he doesn't stop).
۶ৎ finally he sends : "okay but seriously, I had a really good time today 😊" with that specific emoji, and you know he's lying in bed kicking his feet and giggling to himself !!
의 ˑ ִ TAESAN◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ looks at you like you've lost your mind when you suggest it. He just looks up from his phone and slowly turns to you with the most deadpan expression. "The pepero challenge," he repeats flatly, like he's making sure he heard you right. You nod enthusiastically and he just blinks at you. "Why?" Not in a mean way, he's genuinely asking why you want to do this. "Because it's fun?" you offer, and he sighs like you've just asked him to run a marathon
۶ৎ he tries to get out of it at first. "That's so... isn't that kind of outdated?" he mumbles, going back to his phone. But you can see the corner of his mouth twitching like he's fighting a smile
۶ৎ you pout at him and he glances at you, then looks away quickly. "Fine. One round. That's it." He says it so reluctantly but he's already putting his phone down and sitting up straighter. You notice his hand goes to fix his hair real quick
۶ৎ is surprisingly serious once you start. No jokes, no stalling, he just holds his end of the pepero and waits for you to start. His face is completely neutral, typical Taesan poker face activated. You begin nibbling your end and he matches your pace exactly, maintaining eye contact that it's almost intimidating. He's so calm and collected that you're the one who starts feeling nervous. How is he not affected by this at all?
۶ৎ but then you notice the small details that give him away. His jaw clenches slightly. His eyes darken just a fraction. When you're about halfway through the pepero, you see him swallow hard even though there's nothing in his mouth yet. His breathing gets a little deeper. He's still maintaining that cool exterior, but you're close enough now to see his pupils dilate, the slight flush creeping up his neck. He's not as unaffected as he wants you to think
۶ৎ the tension breaks when you're dangerously close. You're maybe a centimeter apart and Taesan suddenly turns his head away, the pepero snapping between you. He immediately stands up and walks a few steps away, running his hand through his hair. "There. Done," he says, voice slightly strained. His back is to you and you can see him take a deliberate breath
۶ৎ when he finally turns around, his ears are RED and he won't quite meet your eyes : "That was... yeah. We did it."
۶ৎ he gets so awkward afterwards but tries to hide it. He goes back to his phone and pretends to be really invested in whatever he's looking at, but you can see he's just scrolling randomly, not actually reading anything. When Leehan comes in and asks what you guys are up to, Taesan responds a little too quickly with "Nothing. Absolutely nothing happened." Leehan looks between you two suspiciously and Taesan throws a pillow at him. "Get out."
۶ৎ late that night, you get a single text from him. Just : "you're dangerous, you know that?"
۶ৎ you text back asking what he means and he leaves you on read for like 30 minutes. Then finally :
"making me do stuff like that, it's dangerous."
"...we're not doing it again."
۶ৎ you send back a teasing "who said I wanted to do it again?" and his response comes immediately :
"good. because I don't want to either."
"unless you really wanted to. then maybe."
"don't screenshot my texts"
“HOW DID YOU KNOW?” (you screenshotted it)
"🙄". (he’s smiling on the other end) !!
의 ˑ ִ LEEHAN◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ agrees so casually it almost throws you off. You bring up the pepero challenge and he just looks up from his phone and goes "Okay, sure." No hesitation, no teasing, just... okay? You're like "Wait, really?" and he nods like you just asked him if he wants water. "Yeah, why not? Sounds fun." He says it so nonchalantly that you're starting to wonder if he actually knows what the pepero challenge involves or if he thinks it's something else entirely
۶ৎ weirdly relaxed during the setup. While you're nervously opening the pepero box and picking out a good one, Leehan is just sitting there completely at ease, maybe telling you a random fact about fish. "Did you know that some fish share food as a bonding activity?" he muses, and you're like "Leehan, focus." He smiles and goes "I am focused." (he doesn't seem focused at all, but somehow that makes you more nervous)
۶ৎ when you start, his eyes never leave yours. It's kind of intense? He's taking small, steady bites and maintaining the most unwavering eye contact you've ever experienced. There's no nervousness in his expression, just this gentle curiosity, like he's observing your reactions more than worrying about his own. You're the one who keeps almost laughing or looking away, and every time you do, you catch the tiniest hint of amusement in his eyes
۶ৎ doesn't seem fazed even when you're incredibly close. You're practically touching and Leehan is still so calm, still watching you with that soft gaze. Your heart is pounding and you're sure he can probably hear it with how close you are
۶ৎ there's barely a millimeter of pepero left and he tilts his head slightly, almost questioningly, like he's asking without words if you're going to pull away first. The moment feels like it lasts forever
۶ৎ when the pepero finally snaps, he just smiles. "That was nice," he says simply, like you just finished watching a pleasant movie together. NICE??
۶ৎ meanwhile you're internally combusting and he's just sitting there looking completely serene. "Your heart is racing," he observes casually, and you're like "I wonder WHY, Leehan" and he just laughs softly
۶ৎ the members notice the different atmosphere but can't pinpoint what. Woonhak asks "Hyung, why are you smiling like that?" because Leehan has this tiny, private smile on his face for the rest of the day. "Like what?" Leehan asks innocently. "I always smile." But it's different and everyone can tell
۶ৎ keeps looking over at you during conversations, catching your eye with that same gentle expression, and it makes your stomach flip every time
۶ৎ brings it up again later. You're both just hanging out and he casually says "We should do that again sometime" while looking at his fish tank. You're like "The pepero challenge??" and he glances at you with that calm, sweet smile. "Yeah. I liked it. It was... intimate." He says it so matter-of-factly, like it's the most normal observation in the world. "Plus, I was less nervous than you were. Maybe next time you'll be calmer." The confidence in that statement makes your brain short-circuit. He notices and adds with a soft laugh, "Or maybe not. That's okay too.”
의 ˑ ִ WOONHAK◝ ᥐ
۶ৎ his initial reaction is pure chaos. The moment you suggest the pepero challenge, his eyes go HUGE and he literally chokes on air. "WHAT? The—the pepero challenge? With ME?" He's pointing at himself like there might be another Woonhak in the room. His voice cracks slightly and he immediately starts laughing that loud, nervous laugh of his. "You're joking right now. You have to be joking." You're definitely not joking, and when he realizes that, he goes completely silent for like five seconds before going "Oh my god, oh my GOD."
۶ৎ tries to play it cool but fails spectacularly. "I mean, yeah, sure, I'll do it. I'm not scared or anything," he says, puffing his chest out a little. But his hands are already fidgeting and he keeps running them through his hair. "I do challenges all the time. This is nothing." He's trying to convince himself more than you
۶ৎ when you hand him the pepero, he takes it but his hand is literally shaking a little. "Woonhak, you're trembling," you point out, and he's like "No I'm not! It's just... cold in here!"
۶ৎ he stalls for SO long before actually starting. "Wait, do we need to stretch first? I feel like we should stretch." You're like "Woonhak, it's not a physical activity" and he's like "Everything is a physical activity if you think about it." Then he's adjusting how he's sitting like five times. "Okay wait, this angle is better. No wait, this one. Actually—" You finally just put your end of the pepero in your mouth and stare at him, and he says, "Okay! Okay, we're doing this, right now. Here we go."
۶ৎ once you actually start, he's a MESS. He takes the tiniest bites possible, like he's trying to make the pepero last forever. His eyes keep darting between the pepero, your face and back again, and you can literally see the panic increasing as the distance closes
۶ৎ when you're about halfway, he starts giggling uncontrollably. "Sorry, sorry, I can't—" he's laughing so hard the pepero is shaking. "Why is this so stressful? This is the most stressful thing I've ever done!"
۶ৎ he absolutely pulls away early, falling backwards dramatically. There's still a solid centimeter of pepero left when Woonhak just gives up and launches himself backwards onto the floor. "I CAN'T DO IT!" he yells, covering his face with both hands
۶ৎ he's laughing and screaming at the same time. "That was so close! TOO close! My heart almost exploded!" You're laughing too because his reaction is so over the top. He's literally lying on the floor staring at the ceiling like he just survived a near-death experience
۶ৎ the teasing from the hyungs is IMMEDIATE and merciless. Jaehyun walks in and sees Woonhak still on the floor and asks, "What happened to you?" and Woonhak just points at you accusingly. "THEY tried to KILL ME!" When the others find out you did the pepero challenge, they absolutely lose it. Taesan is smirking, "Did you even get close?" and Woonhak's like "We got VERY close, thank you very much!" (You didn't.) Sungho raises an eyebrow and Woonhak immediately backtracks. "I mean, not THAT close, but close enough!"
۶ৎ he can't look at you normally for the rest of the day. Every time you make eye contact, he either bursts out laughing or gets shy and looks away quickly. At one point you sit next to him and he literally scoots away a little, then realizes what he did and scoots back, then gets embarrassed about that. "I'm being so normal right now," he announces to no one. "So, so normal." He's the least normal he's ever been
۶ৎ that night you get a string of texts :
“okay so that was insane"
"I wasn't ready"
"you should have warned me more"
"my heart is STILL racing"
"the hyungs won't stop teasing me about it"
"Jaehyun hyung asked if we're dating now??? I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY"
"anyway we're never doing that again"
"unless you want to"
"NO WAIT I didn't mean that"
"unless...?" You can practically hear his voice getting higher with each text
۶ৎ finally : "okay I'm going to sleep now before I embarrass myself more 😭 goodnight!!"
۶ৎ he sends one more message five minutes later : "that was fun though… 😁”
۶ৎ PAIRING : boynextdoor x gn!reader ۶ৎ GENRE(S) : established relationship, a whole load of FLUFF!!! ۶ৎ WARNINGS(S) : mentions of fever, colds, and general illness (nothing severe), slight medical caretaking (blankets, soup, cold compress, etc.), lots of secondhand embarrassment from Jaehyun and Woonhak being dramatic (not actually hehe), minor mentions of emotional clinginess and crying (but in a soft/funny way) ۶ৎ WORD COUNT : 0.3k - 0.5k words
۶ৎ A/N : My first ever headcanon fic! 💌 This one’s a little self-indulgent since I’m currently sick rn .·°՞(っ-ᯅ-ς)՞°·. so I wrote about how BOYNEXTDOOR would take care of you (or how they'd act if they were the sick ones themselves). Also… I just realized every fic I’ve written so far has been angst… 😳 So please accept this soft, chaotic fluff as a humble apology for emotionally wrecking you all. Consider it a tissue and a warm soup for your soul 🥲💗
SUNGHO ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ balances between giving you space and checking in just enough to make sure you're comfortable
۶ৎ makes a quick trip to the store and returns with medicine, your favorite drinks, and a small surprise to cheer you up
۶ৎ helps change your bedsheets because "fresh sheets always feel better when you're under the weather"
۶ৎ wears a mask even if you’re the sick one :
"Sungho, I’m the contagious one."
"Yeah, but what if I breathe in your sick and it bounces back at you?? Think, babe.”
۶ৎ checks your temperature every five minutes because he's convinced your fever is one decimal away from a medical emergency :
“Sungho you checked my temperature five minutes ago…”
“Yeah, and what if it went up since then? What if you're like... melting and I missed it?”
۶ৎ lays you gently in bed like a precious doll. Adjusts the blanket 12 times. Pats it smooth. Kisses your forehead, checks for fever, then kisses it again just in case :
“You’re acting like I’m dying.”
“I almost lost you to a paper cut once. Let me panic in peace.”
۶ৎ offers to make you simple but nutritious meals : "You need to keep your strength up."
۶ৎ keeps making you tea, but forgets he already made one, so by 2pm you have five mugs on your nightstand and he’s still going. “Tea is healing, babe. You're basically 80% tea now.”
۶ৎ reads out funny messages from the other members to make you smile
۶ৎ stays up to check on your breathing :
“Okay… still breathing. Good. You're doing amazing, sweetie. I love you.”
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ refuses to admit he’s sick for the longest time. He’s wiping down counters, vacuuming the floor with a tissue stuck to one nostril like :
“I’m not sick, I just— achoo—need to open a window or something.”
۶ৎ tries to go to the gym anyway. You physically have to block the door :
"You’re sweating and not in a gains way, Sungho."
"But my back day—"
"Will be waiting when you’re not running a fever."
۶ৎ refuses to be babied… until you do
۶ৎ at first he’s all “I’m fine, don’t worry about me.”
۶ৎ but the moment you put a cool cloth on his forehead or brush his hair back, his whole body melts and he just whispers, “...Do that again.”
۶ৎ he usually holds you at night, but when he’s sick, he turns into the clingiest little spoon
۶ৎ Lays on your chest with a pitiful voice :
“I think I’m dying.”
“You have a cold.”
“A dramatic one.”
۶ৎ still tries to meal prep through the sickness
۶ৎ you catch him in the kitchen trying to chop broccoli with a hoodie over his head, sniffing every five seconds :
“Sungho. Please go lie down.”
“But we need protein—”
“I will feed you boiled eggs. Just. Go.”
۶ৎ will grumble about “not being weak,” but the second you tuck the blanket under his chin or spoon-feed him porridge, he’s looking at you with those lovey dovey eyes :
“I could get used to this.”
“You better not.”
۶ৎ pouts when you leave the room for 2 seconds :
“I’m just getting you more tea.”
“I thought you abandoned me. (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ ) ”
RIWOO ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ shows up with no announcement, just slips into your home with comfort food and quiet support
۶ৎ doesn’t say much, but somehow he’s cooked your comfort meal exactly how you like it — “Not too spicy. I remember.”
۶ৎ leaves sticky notes all around your space :
"Take this one after lunch." (on your meds)
"Drink water or I will be silently disappointed." (on your water bottle)
"Eat this. I picked out the weird onions." (on your porridge)
۶ৎ you don’t even see him move—he’s just like a ghost nurse who appears, helps, and vanishes
۶ৎ sits at the foot of the bed, just watching something on his phone with the volume low so he doesn’t disturb you
۶ৎ occasionally tosses you a fruit snack like a koala being fed at a zoo
۶ৎ gives your ankle a gentle squeeze like: I’m here, rest easy.
۶ৎ puts on a movie or show he knows you'll enjoy, sitting close enough that you can lean on him if you want
۶ৎ remembers the little details about how you like your tea or what side you prefer to sleep on
۶ৎ doesn’t make a fuss about the tissues or mess. He just calmly puts on gloves, clears everything up, and hums quietly to himself
۶ৎ you try to thank him. He shrugs. “I like taking care of you.” …
۶ৎ now your fever’s worse, but for romantic reasons
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ becomes extra quiet, communicating mostly through sleepy nods and head shakes
۶ৎ he’s in full cozy mode — oversized hoodie, two pairs of socks, blanket wrapped like a cocoon. He just blinks slowly from the corner of the couch while you fuss over him
۶ৎ wants you nearby but doesn't want to be a burden : "You don't have to stay..."
۶ৎ this cutie always wants food but has no energy 🥹 :
“I want kimchi jjigae… but the chopsticks are too far.”
“They’re literally next to you.”
“...Then fate is against me.”
۶ৎ sometimes, he'll just stare longingly at the fridge and sigh
“Do you want juice?”
“...Wouldn’t mind some. If the universe provides.” (The “universe” is you. Obviously.)
۶ৎ is somehow still able to make dad jokes :
“I made you soup.”
“Soup-erb. You’re soup-erb. You’re… souper.”
“Stop.”
“Can’t. I’m on a broth roll.”
۶ৎ gets embarrassed about how messy his hair looks or how raspy his voice becomes
۶ৎ doesn’t want to talk much, but wants you nearby. Will hold your pinky with his under the blanket
۶ৎ if you leave the room too long, he texts you “🧃? 🥺” or a sad selfie with half his face under a hoodie
۶ৎ the rare, genuine smile he gives when you bring him something he needs without asking speaks volumes 💕
JAEHYUN ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ you sneeze once and Jaehyun is already in your room with a thermometer, two drinks (water and vitamin juice), tissues, a plushie, and five different worries :
“Baby?? My love?? My precious one?? Are you okay?? Are you dying?? Should we call the hospital?? Should I fight your immune system??”
۶ৎ cannot stop talking… "So I was thinking about what might make you feel better and I remembered this one time when I was sick and my mom did this thing with ginger and honey and…”
۶ৎ walks in with a bowl of soup like it’s the Olympic torch :
“I have brought you a gift. A miracle. A healing potion passed down by my ancestors—”
“It’s literally instant porridge.”
“Don’t ruin the lore.”
۶ৎ constantly flits around your space, adjusting blinds, fluffing pillows, reorganizing medicine
۶ৎ “I wanna hug you but I don’t wanna get sick.” So he lies at the edge of the bed, dramatically stretching one arm over to hold your hand. Ten minutes later he’s asleep on top of you anyway
۶ৎ sends hourly encouraging text messages with an excessive amount of emojis
۶ৎ dramatically reads stories to distract you, doing all the character voices
۶ৎ while you nap, he tapes a little note to your vitamin bottle that says “eat these or I cry ( ｡ •̀ ᴖ •́ ｡)💢”
۶ৎ his genuine concern shows in how he keeps touching your forehead, shoulder, hand - just making sure you're okay
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ somehow becomes EVEN MORE talkative, but now with a raspy voice :
"I'm fine! I'm fine! It's just a little cold! Did I tell you about the dream I had last night?"
۶ৎ gets emotional about literally everything : "This tissue is so soft... why am I crying?”
۶ৎ SO clingy. Will not let you leave the room. Follows you with his eyes like a sad puppy :
“Where are you going? You’re leaving me?”
“To get your medicine.”
“…Take me with you 🥺”
۶ৎ literally wraps himself around your arm like a koala :
“Can you feed me?”
“You can feed yourself.”
“Yeah but it tastes better when you do it 😔”
۶ৎ coughs once and acts like he's on death's doorstep :
“This is it. This is how it ends.”
“Jaehyun, you’re being so dramatic—”
“Tell Taesan to take my solo lines. Tell Riwoo he was my favorite. Tell Woonhak I've loved him since the very day I birthed him.”
۶ৎ basically the most dramatic out of the six :
“Promise me something.”
“…What?”
“If I don’t make it, delete all my selfies. But leave the ones from Jeju. I looked good in those.”
TAESAN ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ִᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ also doesn’t say much, but somehow everything’s already done
۶ৎ your meds? On the nightstand. Water? Cold and fresh. Room? Quiet and dim. You didn’t even hear him come in
۶ৎ tucks you in like it's instinct. Pulls the blanket over your shoulders. Adjusts the pillow. Brushes a hand over your forehead like he’s checking if you’re too warm, too cold, or just need a little affection. Doesn’t say anything about it
۶ৎ plays soft alt rock through his speaker, says, “This helped my little sister. Might help you too.”
۶ৎ if you try to get up and do anything, he just goes, “Sit.” And you…sit
۶ৎ folds your laundry, disinfects your phone, and empties the trash without being asked. “I’ve done this before. You're not allowed to move unless it’s to hug me.”
۶ৎ deadpan threatens you whenever he tries feeding you :
“Eat or I'm sending Woonhak your sick selfies.”
“That's blackmail!”
“And it works.”
۶ৎ adjusts your blanket while you’re sleeping. You pretend you don’t notice. He pretends he didn’t do it. You both know he did
۶ৎ never says he's worried, but you can tell from the small acts of services he does and how he glances at you every 5 seconds like : please feel better already
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ he doesn't like feeling weak, so he tries to hide it
۶ৎ you only found out he's sick because he sneezed twice during a voice call and his voice cracked :
“Are you sick?”
“...no.”
“You sound like a dying cat.”
“...cool.”
۶ৎ eventually gives in to your care… but barely speaks
۶ৎ will wrap himself in layers and still be cold
۶ৎ he’s in a hoodie, scarf, and blanket burrito — arms crossed, nose red, refusing to admit he’s miserable :
“Why are you sulking?”
“I'm not. I just... can’t breathe.”
۶ৎ if you sit by his bed and play with his hair or read next to him, he instantly knocks out. Doesn’t say anything, but shifts closer in his sleep
۶ৎ grumbles softly when you get up like: no, warmth, come back.
۶ৎ giant mountain? More like giant baby
۶ৎ secretly appreciates everything you do for him 🥹
۶ৎ he won’t say “thank you” outright. But when he’s feeling a bit better, he pulls you in for a quiet hug and murmurs, “You take care of me too well. It’s unfair.”
LEEHAN ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ִᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ arrives with a small aquarium: "Studies show watching fish reduces stress and helps healing!”
۶ৎ makes you hydration drinks with way too much love :
“What’s this?”
“It’s vitamin water… but I added lemon slices shaped like hearts and stirred it counter-clockwise for positive energy.”
“…Thank you?”
۶ৎ makes oddly specific but helpful remedies: "This is seaweed soup with exactly seven types of seaweed.”
۶ৎ sits beside your bed and whispers fish trivia to you :
“Did you know clownfish can change gender if the dominant female dies?”
“…Leehan.”
“It’s important to keep your brain stimulated while you’re resting!”
(But lowkey, his voice is so soothing you fall asleep halfway through a fact about seahorses.)
۶ৎ gives you his favourite plushie to cuddle with “for morale” he says :
۶ৎ it’s shaped like a blue tang fish and smells faintly like lavender
“He’s been through a lot. He knows how to handle tough days.”
“What’s his name?”
“Doctor Tang.”
“…Okay.”
۶ৎ tucks you into bed with such care like he’s folding sacred origami. He literally whispers, “There. Safe and warm. Like a burrito. My burrito.” before kissing your forehead 💕
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ MY SHAYLAAAAA 😭😭😭
۶ৎ is so apologetic when he's sick :
“Sorry… my body is failing me… I didn’t mean to…”
“My love, it’s literally just a cold—”
“I let my white blood cells down.”
۶ৎ has a collection of soft blankets and aquatic plushies that only emerge when he's unwell
۶ৎ adores when you play with his hair or rub his back to help him relax
۶ৎ wants you to play marine documentaries when he sleeps : “No horror movies. Just gentle turtles… maybe a kelp forest.”
۶ৎ falls asleep halfway through David Attenborough’s narration and smiles in his sleep when the narrator says “nudibranch”
۶ৎ once he's better, he acts like he had a spiritual journey :
“I dreamed I was a guppy floating through space.”
“…Okay.”
“And you were there. Feeding me vitamin jelly.”
“Hannie. Go brush your teeth.”
۶ৎ looks at you with such genuine gratitude for simple acts of care that it makes your heart melt
WOONHAK ࣪ ִֶָ་༘࿐
ᰔ when you're sick :
۶ৎ “YOU’RE WHAT? SICK?!”
۶ৎ he finds out and gasps like you told him you're moving to another country. Then runs around gathering everything like it’s a medical emergency :
“Do you need soup? Ice? Socks? Medicine? A hug? Two hugs??”
۶ৎ his naturally loud voice keeps dropping as he remembers to be quieter: "I brought SOUP! I mean... soup.”
۶ৎ brings an overflowing bag of snacks, drinks, and random items he thought might cheer you up
۶ৎ despite his playful nature, he shows remarkable maturity in how he cares for you
۶ৎ keeps trying to make you laugh: "A smile strengthens your immune system! I read that somewhere... or maybe I made it up?"
۶ৎ expresses his concern openly and warmly: "I was really worried about you, you know?”
۶ৎ puts on cartoons for you because "they heal the soul"
۶ৎ sits next to you under the blanket and gasps at every plot twist in Paw Patrol like it’s his first time watching :
“Did you SEE THAT? He SAVED THE BOAT—babe, are you watching?”
dozing off
“She’s sleeping peacefully… I’m sobbing.”
۶ৎ will not stop hugging you even though he’s told “no contact”
۶ৎ creates elaborate pillow fortresses around you "for protection against bad germs”
ᰔ when he's sick :
۶ৎ remember when I said Jaehyun is the most dramatic? He has some competition...
“Hey, how are you feeling—”
“I CAN’T SMELL. I MIGHT NEVER SMELL AGAIN.”
“It’s a stuffy nose—”
“I FORGOT WHAT CHOCOLATE SMELLS LIKE.”
۶ৎ lays on the bed like he’s in a music video about heartbreak. Blanket up to his nose. Arms flopped dramatically :
“Do you want tea?”
“I want… to feel alive again.”
۶ৎ slips into full baby mode because he just loves being babied by you but will never admit it :
“Will you brush my hair?”
“Can you sing to me while I nap?”
“Will you feed me tiny spoonfuls of soup and call me a strong boy?”
۶ৎ won’t eat unless you feed him
“No I can’t lift my arms… you have to do the airplane… no, wait, the rocket ship—okay I’m ready.”
opens mouth dramatically
۶ৎ whimpers if you try to leave the room :
“I’ll go make tea—”
“NoooOooOO don’t go… what if I need cuddles mid-sip…”
۶ৎ starts naming your care items
“This water bottle’s name is Aqua. She’s my emotional support friend now.”
“This tissue pack? He’s called Mr. Fluffy.”
۶ৎ gets genuinely sad when you try to throw them away
“You can’t just discard Fluffy like that... he caught my tears…”
۶ৎ the way he lights up when you bring him his favorite snack makes taking care of him rewarding
۶ৎ falls asleep holding your hand, looking younger and more vulnerable than usual🥹

✧ SUNGHO ⋆ ͘ . ⠀ ⠀
۶ৎ he has a whole bedtime routine and expects you to follow it too. he's already laid out skincare for you on the bathroom counter without being asked. "It's important to take care of your skin," he says while gently massaging moisturizer into your face because apparently you "don't do it properly." you're not even arguing because his hands are so gentle and it feels nice.
۶ৎ he's secretly really particular about which side of the bed he sleeps on. like it's not even up for discussion, he just naturally gravitates to "his side" and you get the other one. if you ever try to switch it up as a joke, he genuinely looks confused and mildly distressed. "Why would you... this is my side though?" he can't even articulate why it matters, it just does. you eventually learn that his side is always closest to the door because he wants to be between you and any potential threat.
۶ৎ acts like he wants his space but his body betrays him every single night. he'll be like "okay, goodnight" and turn to his side of the bed, but you always wake up either completely wrapped in his arms or with his face buried in your neck. one time you tried to tease him about it and he got so flustered. "I don't— I'm asleep, I can't control what I do when I'm unconscious." sure, Sungho.
۶ৎ he's the type to wake up if he senses you're uncomfortable. you shift positions too many times? he's immediately asking in that deep sleepy voice if you're okay, if you need water, if the temperature is fine. sometimes you feel bad for waking him but he just pulls you closer and adjusts however you need. "Just tell me what you need," he mumbles into your hair.
۶ৎ lowkey protective even in his sleep. if you try to get up in the middle of the night, his arm automatically tightens around you. still asleep, he'll mumble something like "where are you going?" with his eyes still closed. when you say bathroom, he loosens his grip but makes this disgruntled sound like he's annoyed you're leaving.
۶ৎ wakes up before his alarm and just watches you sleep for a bit. you just look so peaceful that he can't help it. sometimes he'll brush hair off your face or adjust the blanket around you. if you catch him, he gets embarrassed and tries to play it off. "I just woke up, I wasn't staring." (he was totally staring.)
۶ৎ gets genuinely upset if you don't sleep well. if you mention you had trouble sleeping or didn't get enough rest, he's immediately problem-solving. "Was the pillow okay? Too hot? Too cold? Did I snore?" then he's looking up articles about better sleep quality and adjusting everything for the next night. your well-being is his priority, even in sleep.
۶ৎ always pulls you closer in his sleep. you'll wake up in the middle of the night and his arm is draped over you protectively, but then he'll unconsciously pull you even closer, like he's making sure you're really there. sometimes he does this little satisfied sigh when you're tucked perfectly against him. if you mention it in the morning, he acts like he has no idea what you're talking about, but his ears turn pink.
۶ৎ reads or scrolls on his phone until you fall asleep first. he says it's because he's not tired yet, but really he just likes making sure you're completely asleep and comfortable before he lets himself rest. sometimes you feel his fingers gently playing with your hair or tracing patterns on your arm. the moment he hears your breathing even out, he finally puts his phone down, presses a soft kiss to your forehead, and lets himself drift off.
✧ RIWOO ⋆ ͘ . ⠀ ⠀
۶ৎ SMALL SPOON SUPREMACY. this man loves being held and he's not even shy about it (well, maybe a little). he'll back right up into you and grab your arm to wrap around him like "okay yes this is perfect." sometimes he gets all giggly about it because it makes him feel safe and cared for. if you ever big spoon him and kiss his shoulder or the back of his neck, he makes the softest, happiest sounds.
۶ৎ falls asleep embarrassingly fast when you play with his hair. like you start running your fingers through his hair and within two minutes he's out, completely gone. sometimes he tries to fight it because you're in the middle of a conversation but his eyes keep drooping. "I'm listening, I promise, keep talking—" and then he's asleep.
۶ৎ clings in his sleep like a koala. arms around you, leg thrown over you, face buried in your chest or neck. sometimes you wake up and can't move because he's literally wrapped around you. when you try to untangle yourself, he whines in his sleep and holds on tighter. you've learned to just accept your fate. this is your life now.
۶ৎ makes the softest sleepy sounds. little sighs, quiet hums, occasional soft mumbles that don't form actual words. sometimes he'll nuzzle closer to you in his sleep and make this content sound that's so cute you want to cry. you've tried to record it before but it never quite captures how adorable it is in person.
۶ৎ wakes up confused and disoriented every single time. his eyes flutter open and he just looks around like he doesn't know where he is for a solid ten seconds. then he sees you and his whole face softens into this sleepy smile. "Oh... hi," he mumbles, voice all rough and quiet. takes him a good five minutes to fully wake up and remember what day it is.
۶ৎ gets cold so easily at night. he's always stealing the blanket or pressing his cold feet against your legs (which makes you yelp every time). "Sorry, sorry!" he whispers, but then does it again five minutes later. eventually you just let him because his happy sigh when he warms up is worth the temporary cold shock.
۶ৎ has a specific stuffed animal or pillow he's attached to. he's a little embarrassed about it at first, but it's so endearing. sometimes if you're not staying over, he'll hug it and pretend it's you. (you only know this because Jaehyun snitched.) when you ARE there, the stuffed animal gets abandoned immediately because why would he need it when he has the real thing?
۶ৎ he reaches for you in his sleep. if you move away even slightly, his hand starts searching for you across the bed, patting around until he finds you again. once he makes contact, he relaxes immediately. sometimes he doesn't even wake up for this, it's just automatic. you are his security object and he needs to know you're there.
۶ৎ looks absolutely beautiful when he sleeps. his face is so peaceful and soft, eyelashes casting shadows on his cheeks, lips slightly parted. sometimes you just look at him and wonder how you got this lucky. if he catches you staring when he wakes up, he gets all shy and hides his face. "Don't look at me, I just woke up—" "You're literally gorgeous." "Stop..."
۶ৎ loves lazy morning cuddles more than anything. even if he has to get up, he'll stay in bed with you for as long as possible, just talking softly and enjoying being close. his morning voice is soft and slightly raspy, and he says the sweetest things when he's still half-asleep. "You're so warm... don't wanna move... can we just stay like this forever?" honestly? you're tempted to say yes.
✧ JAEHYUN ⋆ ͘ . ⠀
۶ৎ falls asleep in the middle of conversations SO often. you'll be telling him about your day and you look over and his eyes are closed, mouth slightly open, completely gone. when you call him out on it in the morning he's like "No I heard everything, you were talking about—" and then just makes something up. "Jaehyun that's not even close to what I said." "...okay but in my defense, you're very comfortable to lie next to."
۶ৎ BIG SPOON but makes it everyone's problem. he's so proud of it too. he’ll literally announce "I'm the big spoon" like he's claiming a title. wraps himself around you completely, and honestly? he's really good at it. strong arms, warm chest, perfect height to tuck you under his chin. but he also uses it as an excuse to trap you. "Jaehyun I need to get up—" "Can't. Big spoon responsibilities. I'm spooning."
۶ৎ a furnace in human form. this man generates SO much body heat. in winter it's perfect, you're basically sleeping with a personal heater. in summer it's torture but he still wants to cuddle. you've woken up sweating multiple times and he's just sleeping peacefully, completely unaffected. "How are you not dying right now??" "I'm built different."
۶ৎ talks in his sleep and it's hilarious. full conversations that make absolutely no sense. "Sungho's hair looks so good today..." "Jaehyun you're asleep." "So soft... wanna touch it..." sometimes he gets more specific. "Woonhak-ah, you're so tall now... my baby..." you've learned to just let it play out. one time he had a full argument with dream-Leehan about whose Woonhak's favourite hyung. in the morning he NEVER remembers and doesn't believe you until you show him the recordings. "I did NOT say that about Riwoo's face—" the recording : "so pretty... like a prince..." he wants to die.
۶ৎ starfishes randomly throughout the night. you go to sleep nicely cuddled up and wake up with his arm across your face and his leg somehow off the bed entirely. you've been kicked more times than you can count (always followed by sleepy mumbled apologies when you wake him up). he doesn't mean to, he's just an active sleeper. you've learned to sleep defensively.
۶ৎ gets genuinely offended if you fall asleep before him. "Wow, okay, I see how it is. My company is so boring you'd rather sleep." you're literally exhausted but he's pouting. he makes it his mission to fall asleep first the next night just to prove a point, but then gets upset that he didn't get to watch you fall asleep because "you look cute when you're sleepy." he can't win and he's frustrated about it.
۶ৎ does a little kiss attack before bed every night. kisses your forehead, nose, cheeks, lips, anywhere he can reach while you're giggling and trying to escape. "Okay goodnight— wait no I missed a spot—" "JAEHYUN." "One more!" it's become such a routine that if he forgets you're like "um excuse me?" and he gasps like he's committed a crime and immediately rectifies it.
۶ৎ needs to hold your hand to fall asleep. even if you're not cuddling, even if it's too hot for full body contact, he needs to at least hold your hand. fingers intertwined, thumb rubbing circles on your skin. if you try to let go, his grip tightens in his sleep. you mentioned it once and he got embarrassed. "It just... feels right. I sleep better when I know you're there."
۶ৎ the hardest person to actually get out of bed. he'll wake up, sit up, maybe even stand up and get dressed... and then you find him back in bed five minutes later. "Jaehyun I thought you were getting ready?" "I am ready. I'm mentally preparing." he's literally lying down with his eyes closed. you tell him you need to leave in ten minutes and he's like "okay perfect, that's enough time for a nap." You have to physically drag him out sometimes. "But the bed is so comfortable... and you're here... why would I leave?" valid point but you're going to be late.
۶ৎ takes the best candid photos of you sleeping. you found a whole folder on his phone labeled with your name and it's just... you sleeping. drooling, messy hair, weird positions, all of it. "Jaehyun why—" "You're cute!! Look at this one, you were dreaming and smiled a little—" He's so endeared by all of them. he shows them to you with the softest look on his face like they're precious memories (they are, to him). you can't even be mad because he looks at you with so much love.
✧ TAESAN ⋆ ͘ . ⠀
۶ৎ sleeps like he's in a coffin. flat on his back, arms at his sides, completely still. the first time you stayed over you genuinely checked if he was breathing because he doesn't move AT ALL. sometimes you poke him just to make sure he's alive and he doesn't even flinch. "Taesan are you okay?" "...I'm sleeping." "You look dead." "Thanks."
۶ৎ takes forever to actually fall asleep. he'll lie there in the dark, completely still and silent, but you know he's awake because his breathing hasn't evened out yet. if you ask what's on his mind, he'll share in that quiet, contemplative way. these late-night conversations in the dark are when he's most open and vulnerable.
۶ৎ pretends he doesn't want to cuddle but secretly loves it. if you wrap yourself around him, he'll sigh like it's such an inconvenience, but his arm comes around you immediately and he holds you close. "You're clingy," he murmurs, but his fingers are tracing patterns on your back. "You're literally hugging me back." "...It would be rude not to." you both know he's full of it.
۶ৎ his morning voice is INSANE. deep and raspy and rough that it should be illegal. he knows it too, and uses it to his advantage. sometimes he says things in the morning just to watch your reaction, then smirks when you get flustered. "Why are you looking at me like that?" he'll ask in that voice, completely aware of what he's doing. absolute menace.
۶ৎ runs cold at night so he seeks out your warmth. he won't admit it, but he gravitates towards you like a cat looking for a sunbeam. will press his cold feet against your legs and when you yelp, he just says "you're warm" like that's a complete explanation. eventually just tangles his legs with yours. "This is nice," he admits quietly, like it's a secret.
۶ৎ hates being woken up but makes an exception for you. anyone else tries to wake him? death glare. you do it? he just blinks at you sleepily and mumbles "what's wrong?" in a concerned voice. if you say you can't sleep, he'll wake up fully to talk to you or just comply to whatever you need. your sleep is more important than his, apparently.
۶ৎ plays music to help you both fall asleep. he has specific playlists for sleeping, all instrumental or soft vocals. sometimes it's his own unreleased demos and you feel special getting to hear them. he'll have one earbud in and give you the other, volume low. if a song he doesn't like comes on, he'll wake up just enough to skip it, then immediately fall back asleep.
۶ৎ weirdly protective of your sleep quality. if anything disturbs you—outside noise, too much light, wrong temperature—he's immediately fixing it. gets blackout curtains without you asking. tells the members to shut up if they're being loud in the morning. "She needs to sleep" is his explanation for everything, delivered in a tone that brooks no argument.
۶ৎ extremely particular about his pillow. it has to be the right firmness, right height, and he panics if he has to sleep somewhere without it. has actually brought it to schedules before. you teased him about it once and he got defensive. "Neck support is important." now you make sure his pillow is always on his side of the bed because you learned that him sleeping poorly means he's grumpy all next day.
۶ৎ goodnight kisses are mandatory and non-negotiable. doesn't matter if you're fighting or if he's exhausted or whatever, you get a goodnight kiss. it's usually soft and lingering, his hand cupping your face gently. sometimes he murmurs "sleep well" or "dream of me" (the second one is said with a slight smirk). it's the one consistently soft moment he allows himself every single day, and he needs it as much as you do.
✧ LEEHAN ⋆ ͘ . ⠀
۶ৎ has the most chaotic sleep schedule known to man. some nights he's asleep by 9pm, other nights he's still awake at 4am because he spotted a rare pokemon nearby and had to go catch it. there's no pattern, no consistency. you've stopped trying to predict it. "Leehan it's 3am—" "There's a Dratini two blocks away." "…please sleep." "Okay but after I catch this." (he comes back with three new pokemon and finally agrees to sleep.)
۶ৎ sleep talks about the most random things. usually fish-related. "The pH levels are off…" "Leehan what?" "Need to check the tank…" he's fully asleep, dreaming about his aquarium. sometimes it's weirder though. once he had a full mumbled conversation about plants. in the morning he never believes you. "I don't talk in my sleep." you have videos. he's in denial.
۶ৎ sleeps in the weirdest positions but somehow looks comfortable. his signature is one arm up with his hand above his head, looking like he's posing for a photoshoot even while dead asleep. sometimes he's diagonal across the bed in that position. you don't understand how it's not uncomfortable. "Leehan your arm doesn't fall asleep?" "No? This is normal." somehow he makes it look effortless and peaceful. you tried sleeping like that once and your arm went numb in five minutes.
۶ৎ loves when you sleep on his chest. he'll even ask for it. "Come here," he'll say, patting his chest. his heartbeat is steady and calming, and he likes the weight of you on him. says it helps him sleep better. his hand rests on your back or plays with your hair absently. sometimes he talks softly about his day or random facts until you both drift off.
۶ৎ completely dead to the world when he actually sleeps. he could sleep through an apocalypse. alarms don't work. shaking doesn't work. you've tried everything. the only thing that consistently wakes him is you kissing his face or playing with his hair. then his eyes flutter open and he gives you this soft, sleepy smile. "Good morning." like he wasn't just in a coma five seconds ago.
۶ৎ says the most randomly affectionate things when he's half-asleep. his filter is completely gone. "You smell nice." "You're pretty." "I like you a lot." just stated as facts in a soft, drowsy voice. in the morning you bring it up and he's like "I said that?" but he doesn't take it back, just gets a little shy. "Well it's true, so."
۶ৎ has to check his fish tanks before bed every night. it's part of his routine. you've started joining him, and he explains what he's checking and why, voice soft and enthusiastic. sometimes he'll point out if a fish is acting different. "See how he's swimming? He's happy today." you love watching him in these moments, so gentle and caring. he always holds your hand on the way back to bed.
۶ৎ falls asleep faster when you read to him or talk about your day. something about your voice just knocks him out. you'll be mid-sentence and you’ll slowly hear his breathing even out. "Leehan are you asleep?" "…no, keep going." (he's definitely asleep.) you've tested this theory multiple times, it's foolproof. now you just use it as a weapon when he needs to sleep but can't. he's onto you but it still works every time.
۶ৎ pulls you close in his sleep whenever you move away. not frantically like some of the others, but with quiet determination. his arm just reaches out, finds you, and draws you back against him. sometimes he mumbles "stay" without even waking up. when you ask about it in the morning, he just shrugs. "I sleep better when you're close. my body knows that even when I'm asleep, I guess." it's said so matter-of-factly, like it's just obvious that you belong next to him.⠀
✧ WOONHAK ⋆ ͘ .
۶ৎ SPRAWLS across the entire bed like he owns it. arms out, legs everywhere, diagonal positioning. you've woken up hanging off the edge multiple times while he's comfortably in the center. when you complain, he's genuinely confused. "What do you mean I take up space? I'm not even that big!" Woonhak you're literally 6 feet tall and sleeping like a starfish. "Oh." he tries to be better about it but fails every single night.
۶ৎ kicks in his sleep without fail. you've been kicked in the shin, the thigh, almost in the face once. he's so apologetic when you wake him up. "I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I didn't mean to!" checks if you're okay like five times. sets up a pillow barrier to protect you but somehow kicks that off the bed too. eventually you just accept that dating Woonhak means accepting bruises. he feels so bad about it every morning.
۶ৎ drools adorably. there's always a little wet spot on his pillow and sometimes on your shoulder if he falls asleep on you. he's SO embarrassed about it. you showed him once and his face went bright red. "NO I DON'T— okay maybe a little but you don't have to SHOW me!" you think it's cute. he thinks it's mortifying. you've caught him checking his pillow in the morning to hide the evidence.
۶ৎ needs like fifteen minutes to remember how to be human when he wakes up. eyes barely open, confused about where he is, what year it is, who he is. he just sits there blinking slowly. "Woonhak you okay?" "...what day is it?" "Tuesday." "...we have school?" "You graduated high school, you're an idol." "Oh. Right." takes his brain a while to boot up. do not ask him important questions during this time.
۶ৎ talks SO much right before falling asleep. rambles about everything and nothing. his day, random thoughts, weird hypotheticals. "Do you think fish get thirsty?" "Woonhak we need to sleep—" "No but really, they're IN water but do they DRINK water?" sometimes he asks deep questions. "Do you think we'll be together forever?" other times it's "I want chicken nuggets."
۶ৎ gets scared easily at night. he hears a random noise and sits up like "WHAT WAS THAT." "Woonhak it's just the wind—" "Are you SURE though?" makes you check sometimes. acts brave but holds your hand the entire time. if you're not there, he texts you at 2am like "i heard something" "what if it's a ghost" "never mind it was my phone charger falling." every single time.
۶ৎ clingy but won't admit it. "I don't need to cuddle, I'm fine sleeping alone," he says while literally wrapping himself around you. if you move away, he follows in his sleep. you've migrated across the entire bed because he keeps scooting closer. "You're the clingy one," he insists. "Woonhak you're literally koala-ing me right now." "...It's cold." it's not cold.
۶ৎ hogs the blanket unconsciously. rolls himself into a burrito and you wake up freezing. when you try to get some blanket back, his grip tightens in his sleep. you've learned to just use a separate blanket because trying to share with Woonhak is impossible. he always looks so cozy and warm wrapped up while you're fighting for your life. "Why do you have two blankets on your side?" "Guess."
۶ৎ sets his alarm to the most obnoxious sound. loud, jarring, horrible. and he NEVER wakes up to it. you do though. you're shaking him awake while his alarm screams and he's like "five more minutes..." "WOONHAK IT'S BEEN RINGING FOR TEN MINUTES." how does he sleep through that??? eventually you just turn it off yourself and accept that you're his human alarm clock now.
۶ৎ goodnight routine is brushing teeth together and him making faces in the mirror. he can't just brush normally, he has to make you laugh. he crosses his eyes, puffs his cheeks, does weird dances. he gets toothpaste on his shirt somehow. "How did you—" "Don't worry about it." but then he gives you the sweetest, most genuine hug before bed, mumbles "sleep well" into your hair, and suddenly all the chaos is worth it. he's your chaotic baby and you love him.
