The Moon

[moosexwinchester]

AU where Muse A and Muse B communicate mentally. Each one grew up thinking the other was simply an imaginary friend, someone they could talk to. As kids, they thought the other was really there, but after an incident, it stays mental (talking about first kisses, teasing in their heads). Neither believed the other was real - until they go to college and Muse A hears a familiar voice. He returns with a witty comment out of habit, thinking he was just hearing things, when Muse B hears him and gasps.

With her words as comfort, Gwi kissed her again on her neck, a soft and simple kiss that made his whole body shiver. He wanted to kiss more of her, he wanted to feel more of her, and so it took only a few moments later for Gwi’s fingers to begin to remove the top of her clothes, slowly and with shaking hands, because the desire was so great now that he was sure she would tell him to stop. 

But they didn’t stop. The past few days had caught up with them and all their panic, anxiety, stress, restlessness and desire tangled in their actions and their bodies. It was a new experience for the both of them and not nearly as clinical as most arranged marriages were. 

They had known one another for only a few days and yet they fit together as if they were made for one another. Of course, there were mistakes and new things to learn about one another, but each one met with a smile, a shared giggle, whispered instructions and requests and always… a kiss.

And afterwards, Gwi held her hand, palm against palm as he caught his breath, looking at her in the low light and thinking of how glad he was that she was the one that became his wife.

[maybe-imthemoon]

Throughout the whole experience, she couldn’t help thinking that her mother had been so wrong about all of this.

There was never any reason for her to worry, as Gwi was just as gentle and her patient with her as she expected him to be. They were figuring things out together. There wasn’t a single moment where she felt like he wasn’t taking care of her. They listened to each other; an ebb and flow of teaching and learning, figuring out each other’s bodies with soft fingers and curious lips.

When it was over and the two of them were laid out, hand in hand, she felt like she had never been happier. Her thighs were sore in places that would definitely stay with her for days, but she didnt mind that at all. Those aches would be a welcome reminder of what they’d done. But now, her head felt empty aside from the bliss of just being there with him.

She was breathless and warm, but she decided she liked that feeling. Her hand squeezed around his and she brought his fingers to her lips, kissing them softly.

He liked it when she kissed him like that. It made his stomach tighten and his heart race. He moaned at the feel of her fingers in his hair and his nose nudged hers as he smiled against her lips. 

“I like it when you do that,” he said to her, kissing her again, but wanting more skin, more kisses. 

So his lips left her own and he kissed her cheeks, her jawline, and then down to her throat. A primal part of himself rose up at the feel of her neck, of the pulse of her blood beneath such a thin piece of skin. 

He stopped, breathing heavily as he tried to contain that feeling… that need. 

“I’m sorry,” he said, “Am I… Are you…”

Scared?

[maybe-imthemoon]

She couldn’t contain a triumphant grin when he admitted that he liked it. It reassured her that although she wasn’t really sure what to do, there was no need to panic. And god, she loved that sound he made. Her brain went into overdrive just thinking about how to hear it again.

When his lips descended onto her neck, she shivered. But not out of fear— never out of fear. There was nothing for her to be afraid of. It felt nice. Her head tilted back further, exposing the pale column of her neck. When he hesitated, it was easy to figure out why.

Was she scared?

It didn’t need to be spoken aloud, and she still understood. With a soft smile, she assured him, “I’m okay. I promise.”

He nodded to her, slightly, before he sat up and he captured her lips against his own once more. This time he kissed her slowly again, relishing in the feeling and taste of her lips, before he put his arms around her waist and he gently turned her so that she was lying on the bed. 

Gwi hovered above her, his body covering hers, as he kissed her deeply. But he pulled away and looked at her, below him, her swollen lips and her messy hair and he just took in that image of her. 

And then, biting his bottom lip, his hand moved to the bottom of her shirt and he put his hand on her stomach. 

Sure, he had carried her to bed before, she had held him and clung to him, and he had held her. But they had never really touched before, not like this. And now his hand was on her stomach and his fingertips were slowly moving her top upwards, revealing her skin inch by inch. 

But he watched her, hoping she didn’t dislike his actions.

[maybe-imthemoon]

She was nervous, but that was to be expected.

After all, Byul-yi had been told pretty much her whole life that being with a man was supposed to be a certain way— painful, unpleasant, and over quickly. But she didn’t feel like she was in any danger with Gwi. His touch was soft and kind, and he clearly didn’t want to scare her at all.

She threw the advice of her mother out the window. This would be different, she assured herself. Gwi is a good man and he would not hurt me.

Her body shivered under his touch, and she watched him with half-lidded eyes. Did she look as warm as she felt? A blush spread down to her chest. She could hear her heartbeat pounding in her ears. Wanting to have a hold on him somehow, she let her hand rest at the back of his neck; fingers curling into his hair at the nape. She was excited. Her nerves seemed to be melting away by the moment.

I’m safe here.

She pulled him down for another searing kiss, where she had a go at taking the lead. It was a little clumsy, of course, but it still felt just as good.

To say that he was nervous would be a complete understatement. Park Haejin— or, as he was known to the public now, Cinn— was beyond nervous. He was borderline panicking, pacing backstage as the rest of his band mates got the final touches on their makeup. The leader of their group attempted to calm him, but Haejin wasn’t having any of it. They had less than five minutes until their debut stage, and he was practically trembling with nerves. A nearby makeup artist scolded him for reaching up to touch his hair again. It was a nervous habit he needed to break. And when they were called to the stage, the other members had to drag his frozen form along. As they got into their formation under the dimmed lights, he took a final deep breath, and faced the crowd as the lights came up and their debut song began. Looking out at the sea of cheering faces, he felt his nerves melt away, and the shy persona he was known for disappeared. Here he was, living out his dream, and he suddenly felt so confident. He loved the screams, the waving hands of people dancing with them, and the flash of cameras blinding him momentarily. It was all he’d been wanting for so long, and now he finally had it. Now it was not the time be the shy, quiet Haejin. Now it was time to be Cinn; Vanity’s lead rapper, who was so confident in what he did.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea laughs softly at the teasing that was thrown Haejin’s way and he took the moment to look over all the other members before wrapping an arm around Haejin’s arm “yup I’m his” he grins and kisses Haejin’s cheek.

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin’s whole face heated up and he hid behind his hands. “You guys are ganging up on me!”

She had no prior experience kissing, Gwi thought. 

In a way, neither did he, but his… other side, did. And he had fed off a maid or two in the past as well so Gwi had… learned things. So when she pulled away he reached up and put his hand on the side of her face, feeling her body heat, and he pulled her down to kiss again. 

He opened his mouth against hers, slowly at first and then just a little more, as he pulled her down further onto his body. Her weight was nothing but bliss on his and he felt his body heat up at the desire that seemed to want to fuel more of this kissing. 

Do you like it rough?

The voice made him stop, it made him pull away when he was breathless and his chest heaved. He was looking up at her, scared that he was going too fast. 

“I can stop,” he said to her, his voice low and husky, unused from the sleep they had just woken from and dark with the desire that just teetered across the edge. 

[maybe-imthemoon]

Her mind began to feel fuzzy, as she followed his lead. She figured he must’ve had some kind of experience, though she didn’t think too much on that. It wasn’t important.

All that really mattered to her was his lips against hers, practically pulling the breath from her lungs. And his hand against her cheek, and the heat of his body against hers. That was all she had the patience to pay attention to. When his lips parted, she did the same and her teeth caught his bottom lip for a brief moment.

He pulled away fast enough to concern her, and she looked down at him. Stop? Did he want to stop? That was the opposite of what she wanted. But she could tell he needed the reassurance, so she smiled softly at him.

“Don’t...” she answered, sounding breathy but sure.

He woke up when she touched him, when he felt her fingers brushing over his skin. His heart began to race inside of his chest as he felt her so carefully touch him and he remembered what she had said before. 

She wanted all of him, and it made his heart clutch in his chest at the thought of the two of them… 

But why not? Thought Gwi. Why shouldn’t they? They were married, they had overcome a lot in the past few days, they felt things for one another, and… they were comfortable now. Surely there was no harm in… trying? 

So he opened his eyes and he looked up at her, his eyes meeting hers. His arms were still around hers and he frowned slightly as he pulled her closer, as he pulled her… down towards him. 

If she resisted then it wasn’t the right time and he would wait but… if she didn’t then… then this could happen now. 

[maybe-imthemoon]

Her breath hitched when his eyes opened, and she froze. Should she move? Then it occurred to her that he was pulling her closer to him, and she definitely didn’t want to move away.

She couldn’t think about anything else except kissing him in this moment, and she went for it.

Of course she hadn’t expected it to be like it was described in books and movies, but she still felt something. It was the sort of feeling she couldn’t put into words— it was just a good feeling. His lips were so soft and gentle; a barely-there sensation against her own, until she pressed harder. It was purely an instinct, as she had no prior experience. She just melted into that feeling.

Breathless even after such a short time, she pulled away and her eyes fluttered open. This close, she could count every eyelash on him if she wanted to. Could he feel the heat off her face from there? She hoped not.

He adjusted so that he could hold her better and he was shutting his eyes and letting her weight and her warmth lull him to sleep. It was how they found themselves a few hours later, their legs intertwined, their hair a mess, still holding one another as they slept. 

Gwi could have continued sleeping if it wasn’t for the sound of rain hitting the roof of their apartments. 

He smiled in his sleep. 

He loved the rain. It meant he could go outside during the day. But he was still too tired and they needed to recuperate the lost hours of sleep from the past two days. So all he did was shift and pull her closer to him, hugging her closely. 

[maybe-imthemoon]

Byul-yi woke up when the sun was creeping down, feeling much better than when she laid down. Still tired, but now she was hungry, so she decided to get up to eat.

She wasn’t expecting Gwi to still be there, but he was. The sight of his calm face as he slept made her smile to herself. She didn’t try to move. Food could wait, and there was no way she would miss an opportunity to see him like this.

He looks like an angel, she thought.

Her fingers brushed over his temple, down his cheekbone, and finally rested her palm against his cheek. Warm and soft, though he looked like cold marble. Her thumb grazed over the corner of his mouth, where her eyes fell to rest. He was still asleep, she figured. There was no harm in admiring.

What would it be like to kiss him? The thought invaded her mind without any warning. Her face flushed. Why was she thinking about that? She wanted to...when he was awake of course. But for now, it was okay to admire the soft curves of his lips and imagine what they would feel like against her own.

[thevampiregwi]

He watched her sleep and made sure she was okay before he headed to the kitchen. He drank the soup that she made him and he put the other things away, he cleaned up a little bit and by the time he was done it was dawn. 

While he had slept a lot these past few days, he was still tired. So he went back to the room and he saw her sleeping peacefully. 

Over the past two days all he had wanted was her clutching onto him like she had used to. He had wanted her to hold him and hug him and be near him. He wanted her scent all over him and lingering on him afterwards. 

So he crawled into the bed with her and he lay down and pulled her towards him. His arms encircling around her body as he shut his eyes and he felt her move. He did not know if she was awake or just shifting in a dream, but he whispered to her as the day approached. 

“Stay there,” he said. “Please.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

She had woken briefly when she felt the bed shift, but she wasn’t expecting him to hold her like this.

Usually, it was Byul-yi that curled herself around him and didn’t let go. She was under the impression that he didn’t like when she did that, but there he was— arms around her waist and telling her not to move. Was he doing it for her or did he genuinely want to hold her? She decided she shouldn’t question it. She did, however, turn in his arms to face him, and wrapped her arms around his torso.

If he was going to let her cuddle him, she might as well take advantage of it.

Her cheek pressed against his collarbone, hands gripping his shirt loosely. She took a deep breath, taking in the comforting scent of him. Her heart hammered behind her ribs, and she was definitely blushing. She had no plans to move, though, and easily fell back asleep.

He reached for her, putting his hand on top of hers while it was on the fridge handle. Before he grabbed her arm, he had gripped her wrist so that she could look at him and he could question what she had told him. A sentence that still lingered and haunted his mind. 

But now, his touch was soft and easy on her skin. 

“Byul-yi,” he said. “You should go rest. I think I can handle drinking some soup but you need to sleep.”

The exhaustion rolled off of her like waves, even with his heightened senses fading, he could see that she was tired. Tired taking care of him. She had done so much already and it… hurt to see her like this. And it took him only an instant for him to reach for her, to pull her back and put his arms under her legs and pull her up into his arms. 

Gwi was strong but he was weakened by the past two days, but he carried her to their bed and he kicked the blankets aside to lay her down. When he was done, he covered her up with the blanket and he soothed her hair. 

“Now rest,” he said. “I’ll be here when you wake up. I promise.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

It wasn’t the first time he’d carried her to bed like this, she knew that. She often fell asleep on the couch during movies and woke up in bed, so she knew he carried her there. It was the first time she was awake for it, though, and it made her heart flutter.

She held onto his shoulder. Not for fear that he might drop her, but she felt the need to touch him again. A reassurance that he was really there and that she wasn’t just hallucinating. He was there, though, and he was okay. They were both okay. Stressed and sleep-deprived and not in the best mental states, but they were okay. She wanted to ask him where they took him; what they asked him, or said to him. Maybe later, when they were both feeling better.

The softness of the bed was a welcome feeling after two days of sleeping on the floor. She tugged the blanket up to her chin and her eyes were already falling shut. She sighed, burrowing into the pillow beneath her head and finally letting herself sleep.

[thevampiregwi]

They both held each other, because they both needed it. They both needed to know that the other was there. Because they had fought and argued and afterwards, now, they seemed to understand one another better. It’s like none of it mattered and now they had gotten through it and were ready to keep going. 

Gwi had worried that it would be one-sided, that only he would know how it felt, that only he would feel the need to hold her but she too… she felt it too and he was happy, a little sad, a little tender but happy.

“I’m sorry,” he said again. “I.. I shouldn’t have said all those things and I shouldn’t have been angry at you. I just… they…. they’re…”

He looked away, falling silent. Did he need to say it? How these people treated him? What they did to him when they were displeased? Why he was so anxious and lonely and sad? 

But he felt his stomach growl and he put his hand on his body, and he pulled away from her. 

“Sorry,” he said again and he looked at the food near them. “Did… Did they make this?”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Byul-yi shook her head, “We both said things we shouldn’t have. I’m sorry too...”

When he pulled away, she wiped her face and hoped he didn’t notice how worn out she was. “I made it,” she assured him. “I, uh...I haven’t let anybody else in for the last two days...” She didn’t trust them. And now she had a perfectly good reason not to, after seeing what they were capable of. It made her feel sick, even thinking about somebody else making his food at this point.

“It’s just soup, but I can make something else if you want. I thought it would be easy on your stomach...” she trailed off, already moving to look for something else to cook. She had stress-baked a pie that morning and it sat on the counter, untouched.

For some reason, her hands felt shaky. She gripped the handle of the fridge, but didn’t make any move to pull it open. “Shit...” she mumbled. “I..I was really worried, you know? It was really scary...I didn’t want them to take you anywhere. I was scared they would do something terrible and it would be my fault...”

Haejin put his absolute all into the performance— they all did, and it felt like the audience reciprocated their energy. He quickly located Dae in the line of photographers and stepped closer to the edge of the stage to be near him. All their hard word had clearly payed off, and he couldn’t be more happy.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea smiles and winks at him as he snaps a picture of him and he couldn’t wipe the grin off his face as he stared up at the other.

[maybe-imthemoon]

Looking out into the audience, Haejin began to notice there were so many signs supporting them— more than any other group there. He hadn’t noticed the full impact of their debut until now, but it had him grinning like an idiot as he danced.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea laughed when he took all the pictures he could and made his way side stage and watched the rest of their performance, he stood to the side so he could perfectly see and watch Haejin perform to their fans.

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin hovered near the edge of the stage even after he saw Dae move. He was close enough to reach out and brush his fingers against waving hands, and close enough to see the huge smiles on the faces of people who were there to see them. It was surreal. If he hadn’t been so invested in the upbeat tone of the song, he would’ve choked up. When their performance was over, he was heaving for breath but he loved the feeling.

[hateumonseuteo]

Standing side stage, Dea smiles widely as he watched as Haejin was heading his way after their performance was over. “You did so amazing out there!” Dea said as Haejin finally walked over to him “I ended up getting some great pictures of you tonight.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin’s smile widened when he saw Dae. He wanted to hug him, but he was drenched in sweat, “Awesome! I’m so glad you could be here.”

[hateumonseuteo]

He saw the look in Haejin’s eyes and moved to wrap his arms around him, not caring if he was covered in sweat or not. “Well I told you either way I was going to be here tonight for you.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

He leaned into his arms and squeezed him tightly, hearing the youngest in their group making grossed-out noises at them. Haejin was quick to shut him up with a playful glare. “Did you see all the signs out there? It was incredible,” he breathed, pulling away to look up at Dae.

[hateumonseuteo]

A laugh passes Dea as he nods his head “I guess you guys grew a fan base since your debut” he said smiling and putting his arms to his side but then he went stiff as he looked to see the other members behind Haejin. “I-uh-hello.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin chuckled and turned to his group. “Boys, this is Dae. Dae, this is the boys,” he introduced them.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea shyly waved at the group with a soft smile on his face “it’s...it’s uh nice to finally meet all of you.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Lou was the first to speak up, ever the troublemaker, “Its nice to meet Haejinnie’s boyfriend finally!” He quickly ran away from Haejin when he lunged. “I’m older than you! Dont be disrespectful!”

[hateumonseuteo]

A laughed escaped Dea as he watched Haejin chase after the youngest member and smiled when he walked back to him, his pinkie finger hooking with Haejin’s as he smiled down at him. “I am proud of you, you know? You did amazing g out there.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin melted at the praise, ignoring the stifled laughter of his group members behind them. “I’m proud of us too. It felt really good to be out there.”

[hateumonseuteo]

He lets out a small giggle at hearing the lighter from the others “next thing you know, your going to superstars...all of you..” he said looking at the others as well then back down at Haejin.

[maybe-imthemoon]

“Got yourself a supportive boyfriend, Jinnie. And cute too? No fair,” JJ teased him, shying away from Ari’s knock it off look. Haejin stuck his tongue out at him. “He’s my cutie. Get your own.”

If he hadn’t been so invested in the upbeat tone of the song, he would’ve choked up. When their performance was over, he was heaving for breath but he loved the feeling.

Standing side stage, Dea smiles widely as he watched as Haejin was heading his way after their performance was over. “You did so amazing out there!” Dea said as Haejin finally walked over to him “I ended up getting some great pictures of you tonight.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin’s smile widened when he saw Dae. He wanted to hug him, but he was drenched in sweat, “Awesome! I’m so glad you could be here.”

[hateumonseuteo]

He saw the look in Haejin’s eyes and moved to wrap his arms around him, not caring if he was covered in sweat or not. “Well I told you either way I was going to be here tonight for you.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

He leaned into his arms and squeezed him tightly, hearing the youngest in their group making grossed-out noises at them. Haejin was quick to shut him up with a playful glare. “Did you see all the signs out there? It was incredible,” he breathed, pulling away to look up at Dae.

[hateumonseuteo]

A laugh passes Dea as he nods his head “I guess you guys grew a fan base since your debut” he said smiling and putting his arms to his side but then he went stiff as he looked to see the other members behind Haejin. “I-uh-hello.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Haejin chuckled and turned to his group. “Boys, this is Dae. Dae, this is the boys,” he introduced them.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea shyly waved at the group with a soft smile on his face “it’s...it’s uh nice to finally meet all of you.”

[maybe-imthemoon]

Lou was the first to speak up, ever the troublemaker, “Its nice to meet Haejinnie’s boyfriend finally!” He quickly ran away from Haejin when he lunged. “I’m older than you! Dont be disrespectful!”

To say that he was nervous would be a complete understatement. Park Haejin— or, as he was known to the public now, Cinn— was beyond nervous. He was borderline panicking, pacing backstage as the rest of his band mates got the final touches on their makeup. The leader of their group attempted to calm him, but Haejin wasn’t having any of it. They had less than five minutes until their debut stage, and he was practically trembling with nerves. A nearby makeup artist scolded him for reaching up to touch his hair again. It was a nervous habit he needed to break. And when they were called to the stage, the other members had to drag his frozen form along. As they got into their formation under the dimmed lights, he took a final deep breath, and faced the crowd as the lights came up and their debut song began. Looking out at the sea of cheering faces, he felt his nerves melt away, and the shy persona he was known for disappeared. Here he was, living out his dream, and he suddenly felt so confident. He loved the screams, the waving hands of people dancing with them, and the flash of cameras blinding him momentarily. It was all he’d been wanting for so long, and now he finally had it. Now it was not the time be the shy, quiet Haejin. Now it was time to be Cinn; Vanity’s lead rapper, who was so confident in what he did.

Haejin put his absolute all into the performance— they all did, and it felt like the audience reciprocated their energy. He quickly located Dae in the line of photographers and stepped closer to the edge of the stage to be near him. All their hard word had clearly payed off, and he couldn’t be more happy.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea smiles and winks at him as he snaps a picture of him and he couldn’t wipe the grin off his face as he stared up at the other.

[maybe-imthemoon]

Looking out into the audience, Haejin began to notice there were so many signs supporting them— more than any other group there. He hadn’t noticed the full impact of their debut until now, but it had him grinning like an idiot as he danced.

[hateumonseuteo]

Dea laughed when he took all the pictures he could and made his way side stage and watched the rest of their performance, he stood to the side so he could perfectly see and watch Haejin perform to their fans.
