vernon knows his own quirks very well. he knows he spaces out a lot, is very aware that sometimes he can come across as standoff-ish or rude. he also knows that he's not very attentive and easily misses some details, but even he is not that oblivious or dumb to not notice changes in your behavior. if there's one thing that vernon got used with you is you being affectionate. caressing his face when he's close. dropping a kiss on his cheek in the passing. hugging him from behind when he's standing. running your fingers through his hair when you two are laying next to each other. and now all of it is... gone.
it's disturbing, to say the least. it's like the switch went off and suddenly he can't see a thing, everything is pitch black. vernon watches you closely as you walk around the room, throwing things messily on top of your suitcase. he didn't have any bad feelings about your two weeks trip back home before, but now he can't help but feel that with you leaving something is going to break. his eyes track every move of yours and he mentally counts missed kisses. you usually grin at him and always come over to kiss him or hug him while packing; sometimes he distracts you enough to have you forget about the clothes and choose getting with him under the sheets. but today is different and his forehead is pretty much stinging right now with desire to be kissed, while his hands feel empty without yours.
'babe,' vernon calls, unsurely. when you pause and turn to look at him, he nervously asks: 'are we okay?'
you blink at him. 'yes? i mean, yes, we are.' you frown, fully turning to him this time. 'why are you asking this? do you feel like we are.. not okay?'
vernon knows when you're lying mostly because you're shit at it; right now he can tell that you're telling the truth and it only confuses him even more. if you think that everything is okay then where are his kisses?! 'it just..' he starts, deflating. 'feels weird. that's all.'
you're up from the floor instantly, coming to sit up next to him on the bed. you look worried and vernon waits for your hands on him but you keep them tightly pressed to your sides and he is going to scream. 'why, baby?' you ask, looking at him with your beautiful eyes which are now filled with worry. 'what's wrong? why it feels weird?'
he waits. waits for his hands to be clasped in yours, waits for you to come sit a little closer, waits for your warm hug. vernon counts to ten and when nothing happens, he feels a little foolish for hoping. he also feels like he's about to cry. 'it's weird,' he comments, looking down at his hands. he opens his palms and then looks back at your hands. 'they are empty. it's weird not to have your hands in them.'
'uh-' you look unsure, frowning. 'i don't get it, vernon.'
'what did i do?' vernon asks, finally raising his head. emotions well up in his heart and he tries hard not to let them spill. 'just tell me. be honest. i- i will fix it. whatever it is, i promise i will fix it.'
'vernon, baby, what are you talking about?' you sound distressed. 'what do you want to fix? what is happ-'
vernon grabs your hands in his and squeezes them hard. 'this. i'm talking about this. why- why you don't touch me anymore? you don't hug me as often as you used to, you don't kiss me all the time, you-' he pauses, trying to calm himself. his voice wavers as he continues: 'i miss this. i miss your hands in mine, your random kisses and hugs, i miss it all. what did i do?' he kisses both of your hands. 'tell me, angel.'
pregnant silence fills the room. it's horrible, to be honest. it makes vernon want to crawl out of his skin, because he can't take this silence, not from you. did he make you feel like you cannot be honest with him anymore? how did he manage to majorly fuck up?
your hands squeeze his. 'i thought...' you take a deep breath. 'i thought you didn't like it. so. i toned it down.'
vernon blinks. you don't look like you're joking and it wouldn't have been a funny joke either way; he opens his mouth and closes. opens it again: 'are you serious?'
'you never really react?' you look so fragile, biting your lower lip and looking away. 'like, you don't push me away but you also don't show that you liked it so i thought maybe you were just tolerating it, you know?'
vernon thinks that maybe banging his head on the wall will cure him. make him less oblivious, more adapt on social cues. fuck, how did he-
'i'm sorry,' he rasps, taking your chin in between his fingers and making you look at him. 'i just received your affection and got used to it so much that only when you toned it down i realized how much did i love it. how much i relied on it. baby, you make me so happy with it, you have no idea.'
you look up at him with big eyes filled with hope. 'yeah? you don't think i'm like, clingy?'
god, vernon is going to kill himself for ever making you doubt this. 'i love it,' he assures you. 'how affectionate you are, how clingy you are. it's what makes you you and i'm in love with you. i'm sorry for not making sure it's clear for you recently. i'll be better.'
sun doesn't shine as bright as you do when you smile widely at him. you paint the prettiest picture when you look like this and vernon is ready to take all the blame, take any punishment from god for making you for a second think that he might hate this part of you. when you hug him tight, he hugs you back even tighter, burying his nose in your neck, breathing you in. 'i love you so much, you are my sunshine, my everything.' he whispers secretly.
you giggle a little and it's the best sound. 'i love you too, baby. i do.'
a/n: finally getting down to your requests :') hopefully you liked this one!! - nini
May I request 52. Fake death/Presumed dead with seungkwan? You can choose which of the two is presumed dead, but like they show up at the other's doorstep suddenly and the other person loses it (because they thought they had lost them forever, having realised they loved them too late) and it could be a confession scene or something too โฅ๏ธ
I've enjoyed all your recent works btw ๐ you write so well
hellluuu honey! thank you so much for the kind words, glad that you're enjoying my works! and thank you for requesting, hopefully you'll like it! ๐
prompt:
fake death/presumed dead
maybe you should've thought it through better. maybe showing up unnannounced at seungkwan's doorstep is not the most ideal way of letting him know that you're not dead. your legs took you here automatically, seungkwan's address memorized in your brain next to your home road because in some weird way this place is also your home - just like everything about seungkwan. too bad it took you faking your own death and disappearing for a month to realize that. you didn't know what to expect from seungkwan, but him opening the door, taking one look at you and then promptly shutting it right in your face was not it. 'um, seunkgwan? hello?'
you can't blame him. you have no idea how you would've reacted if places were switched, so. the door slowly opens again and this time doesn't close immediately. seungkwan stares at you in silence, moving to the side to let you in. he looks - horrible. 'did something...happen?' you question anxiously. a lot could've happened in one month.
seungkwan shuts the door after you loudly. 'you mean apart from my best friend dying?' he asks with a venom dripping from his voice. 'no, nothing else.'
you swallow. there's so much to say, so much to explain - you came here prepared to tell him everything, but now it all looks pointless. you can say so much, but will it make it better? will it turn back the time? you hesitantly take a step back. 'i'm sor-'
seungkwan chuckles. he rubs his face with his hands, exhaling loudly. 'did something happen?' he echoes your question back to you. 'yeah, a lot happened. for once, as i said, my best friend died. and then almost a month later i learn that apparently she's not dead from our boss. said boss also tells me that i am not allowed to see her ever again. interesting, right? very cool. so-'
'seungkwan,' you calll with a trembling voice. 'i'm sor-'
'so i start rising hell there, naturally. because what do you mean i can't see her? oh, have i already mentioned how during this whole month i learned that i love her? that she's the most important person in my life, that she is my everything, that without her life is not really life?'
you gasp. seungkwan's almost shouting at this point, not looking at you. he looks like he's going to break, like there's a tipping point somewhere there, like one more push and he'll fall. 'kwannie...'
'are you going to disappear again?' he demands, finally looking up at you. there are unshed tears in his eyes and it breaks your heart to see him like that. 'are you going to leave again?'
again. slowly you come closer to him, afraid of crossing the boundary but needing to be close. 'seungkwan-'
'because if yes then i'm not letting you,' he interrupts, angry. 'i will lock you up here, i will leave with you, i don't know, i will do something crazy but i will not let you leave me again. i will-'
'i love you too,' you interrupt him this time firmly, looking into his eyes. these words were sitting on the tip of your tongue for too long. seungkwan freezes and you smile gently. 'i love you too, boo seungkwan. life without you is not life for me, too.'
there's so much to talk about, to explain, to tell him. all of it can wait though, because being wrapped in his arms when he's holding you tight is more important. hugging him back as tight as you can, kissing him, letting tears flow freely - all of that is more important, at least for now.
a/n: i think this might've been the hardest topic to write? i'm very bad with anything death related, so hopefully this was up to your liking anonie, let me know <3 - nini

masterlist
seungcheol (s.coups) - buying you groceries
โข seungcheol is a provider, and heโd love to be the one getting you things, especially if it was something as important as groceries.
โข heโd totally just text you for a list, and expect you to just tell him exactly what you wantedโplus later, youโd get a bunch of pictures asking which brand or version you wanted of something to make sure he doesnโt get the wrong thing.
โข heโd want to pay for most, if not all of itโbut he wants you to be comfortable with what he does, so you could both figure out whoโs paying for it (though heโd definitely make sure to pay for the small things at least).
โข he has his card (and wads of cash) and heโs not afraid to spend it on youโin fact, he prefers it that way.
โข itโs even better when youโre with him, since you can spend time together and do something essential (and perhaps it gives him a glimpse of whatโll come down the line, once youโre both older).
jeonghan - getting you the hot gossip from work
โข jeonghan isโฆhonestly, heโd make sure he picks up all the gossip for himselfโand for you both to discuss later.
โข he wouldnโt be nosy per sayโฆheโd just keep his ears open when there were people around talking, okay? itโs not his fault theyโre so loud.
โข and of course, heโd retell it to you in such a way that you couldnโt help but be completely immersed in the drama because his manager is dating who?
โข thereโs multiple lines of gossip that you both follow based on who youโre talking about, and each week thereโs at least one debrief session where the two of you sit down on the couch and you just absorb the information he gives you.
โข heโs glad to see the different expressions you make, and it makes him happy to see you so interested in something heโs telling you about, even if itโs something horrendous about his co-workerโand then when you snuggle up next to him, ready to fall asleep he gives you a small smile and pats your head in contentment.
jisoo (joshua) - buying you flowers or little trinkets
โข i think that while joshuaโs love language is more like quality time, he seems like the type of person to also buy you flowers every few weeksโor whenever the flowers he previously got you wilt.
โข heโd totally get a bouquet for you and a flower for himself to make sure he knew exactly when to get you some new ones.
โข obviously, itโll be your favourite flowers! or just ones that remind him of you, depending on the week.
โข if youโre allergic to flowers, heโd get you chocolate or something else you really likeโit doesnโt have to be exclusively flowers :>
โข heโd see little deer characters and think it would remind you of him, so he would drop them over at your place so youโd always have a way to remember him! (youโd definitely have a little deer and cinnamoroll collection at home somewhere).
junhui (jun) - cooking for you
โข even though jun is busy, he knows you are too, so he makes sure to make dinner for you when you get home.
โข he immediately rushes you out of the kitchen when you try to help and shushes your protests.
โข heโd beg you to just let him cook for youโunless you really wanted to cook yourself. at that point, he would make sure to be the trustiest assistant chef youโve ever had, just to make it a little easier.
โข he just enjoys seeing you have something he made for you and the smile you give him afterwards always makes it worth it.
โข if heโs not there for dinner, he makes sure to leave a packaged meal for you in the fridge, complete with a sweet sticky note telling you to eat well and text him a cat meme when you see it.
โข heโd make sure to note down your favourite foods, and try to remake some of the things youโve liked when you both go out on dates to make you happyโbecause it makes him happy too.
soonyoung (hoshi) - bringing you snacks when youโre busy
โข if soonyoung noticed you hadnโt gotten up to get food or drink water in a while, he would come in himself, giving you a plate of fruit or whichever snack you liked the most with a water bottle to keep by your side as you worked.
โข heโd do this even in the late hours, when you were studying for an exam or an important report for work, and give you something sweet as a treatโand a reminder that no matter what happens, he cares.
โข if you didnโt mind, heโd just sit with you in the same room and do something else to pass the time so you wouldnโt feel alone.
โข if he couldnโt be with you but knew you were working or studying long hours, heโd get food delivered to youโor deliver it to you himself again, showing up on your doorstep later at night, hoping a hug and a good meal will energize you.
wonwoo - fixing all your tech issues
โข honestly, this is something heโd be really good at.
โข like yes, heโs good at so many other things but as soon as you run into any problem whatsoever, heโd know how to helpโeven if he did have to watch a youtube tutorial or read a guide for your tv.
โข heโd fix his glasses right after he managed to fix that weird glitch where your google results were all in a different language or your phone would keep shutting down on you.
โข would definitely guide you through fixing anything if he couldnโt be there, and wake up sleepily to facetime so he could see the problemโhis glasses askew and his bed hair on full display.
โข wonwoo would be proud to call himself your tech guy, especially if it made you smileโand besides, heโs happy he can help you with any challenges, even if itโs something simple.
jihoon (woozi) - planning surprise dates
โข jihoon, honestly, spends a lot of time on his own in the studio, and while you visit, he really knows he needs to get out of his second home sometimesโand a date with you is a good way to do that.
โข heโd do it shyly, calling you up to first ask if you were busy, and then ask if you could come meet him at the studio (heโฆcanโt drive, otherwise he would pick you up.)
โข itโd be nothing much in his eyes: a stroll at a park nearby, learning something new, going out for dinnerโsimple things that were better when he did them with you.ย
โข sometimes heโd just show up at your home with flowers, his face red, since heโd been encouraged by soonyoung to do so and be โmore romantic for once!โ (or at least, thatโs how soonyoung saw it. he didnโt really know about the archive of songs that jihoon had written inspired by you, and you had only seen a few of them anyway.)
โข heโd always make sure to look into places where you would be interested so you could go together, and he could watch you be entertained by something you wanted to doโeven if it wasnโt something he would do himself.ย
seokmin (dokyeom) - notes of encouragement
โข seokminโs the type of person to send long, long texts about how much he loves you and how proud he is of you every so often, especially if youโre busy and he canโt see you as much as he wants to!
โข heโd leave little notes around the kitchen after weekly movie night, so that when you wake up the next morning, he can see your reaction when you see his shameless puns on the colourful paperโwhich are all definitely related to whatever you watched. or you know, dad jokes. one of the two.
โข if he ever brought you lunch while you were out, heโd leave a little note telling you to eat well and message him so he knows youโre doing okay!
โข he wants to make sure you know youโre loved and when you write your own notes for him, he just about melts, giving you a gentle peck on the forehead and a long hug until you both end up giggling.
mingyu - fixing things around the house
โข yes, he may be clumsy but mingyu is always volunteering to build you new furniture or fix things you (or he) has broken.
โข every so often, heโll just scan through the entire house under the pretense of cleaning for you when youโre busy, and creates a mental list of what to do. itโs like heโs trying to sneak around but it doesnโt really work because itโs so obvious where his gaze is.
โข he also loves to help you rearrange furniture too! like your own little interior design helper except you only pay him in cuddles on the couchโฆwherever you two put it.
โข would totally text you pictures of furniture if he goes to ikea and asks if you want them so he can just buy them for you (and so you can have a little date at home building whatever it is).
minghao (the8) - ย watering your plants / taking care of your pets
โข he would show up early at your door, ready to help out if he was availableโand something he would always do is take care of your babies (plants and/or pets!)
โข heโd water your plants for you, leaving a note to remind you to not do the same later, and hum to them to help them grow faster and stay healthy.
โข heโd also make sure to help out with grooming or feeding a petโwhatever you needed so you could focus on yourself first.
โข if you donโt have either, well heโd take care of the sleepy you by making sure you get through your morning swiftly and happily.
โข heโd be proud of making sure you were alright in the mornings, despite how hard it could be some days.
seungkwan - making sure youโre active
โข seungkwan loves to do sports and go on hikes and the such, and i think that he would want you to be with him!
โข obviously, he wouldnโt force you to but hey, you do need to stay active, and itโs better if itโs with him than on your ownโplus, itโs more fun by his side.
โข he would totally buy you matching jackets to go hiking in, and always pick activities that youโre comfortable with doing.
โข he lights up every time you would say youโre having fun and would run over and give you a quick kiss before continuing your badminton match.
โข once youโre both tired out, itโs time for cuddles on the couchโฆand maybe a quick cheesy rom-com where you can both make fun of the protagonists.
โข eventually, he can see the difference in your strength and stamina, and it reminds him to keep working hard too, because you do the same for him.
hansol (vernon) - remembering you
โข hansol is a bit of a forgetful guy but he would never forget you (well, for the most part at least; he still has his moments).ย
โข youโre brought up casually in most conversations he has simply because youโre so important to him that you can be brought up anytime.
โข everything and anything ends up reminding him of you, even if itโs not meant to. heโd tell you about most of them because he loves getting a text back full of love, or a smile on your face as a reply.
โข even if youโre not present, heโs always hyping you up without realizing.ย
โข with you, heโs always sending you cat memes and posts in general saying โusโ or โu n me frโย
โข he takes pride in simply knowing you, and having the ability to be around you so much :)
chan (dino) - driving you around
โข weโve all seen the dingo video where chan drives a fan somewhere, right? yeah thatโs him on the daily with you.
โข youโre his passenger princess !! (gender neutral <3) and he makes sure you know it, always offering you a ride no matter where you need to go!
โข the grocery store? your friendโs house? the optometrist? [insert any ridiculous place he doesnโt need to accompany you to]? heโs already waiting for you outside.
โข this goes even if youโre fully capable of driving yourself because he knows it can be tiring getting on the road some days, but heโll always brave the bad traffic if itโs for you.ย
โข knight in shining armour? no, heโs your knight in a really nice car, one that, in his mind, has your name all over the passenger seat.ย
โข other than that though, he would offer to take you for a late night drive often, with your choice of music on the aux as he drives you over to a spot he researched about weeks ago because it was the perfect couple spot (at least, thatโs what it is according to google).
โข heโd have a huge smile on his face every time you waved at him before opening the door and plopping in right next to his side, where he could sneak glances at you while waiting for the light to turn green.
Burning Jealousy | idol!Vernon x Reader | angst, fluff
The sound of the espresso machine filled the small cafรฉ, blending harmoniously with the low chatter of customers and the clinking of ceramic cups. Y/N expertly poured steamed milk into a cup, creating a perfect heart-shaped latte art. Just as she placed it on the counter, Sofia leaned against the register with a mischievous grin.
"So, guess whoโs coming to New York next week?" Sofia asked, her voice laced with excitement.
Y/N glanced at her, wiping her hands on her apron. "Seventeen?"
"Bingo!" Sofia beamed. "And youโre coming with me."
Y/N hesitated. She shouldโve seen this coming. Of course, Sofia would want to see the groupโher brother includedโespecially since she had a crush on one of the backup dancers, Joon. Y/N knew about her little infatuation; Sofia wouldnโt shut up about him.
"I donโt knowโฆ" Y/N trailed off.
Sofia pouted, reaching for Y/Nโs arm. "Come on, you have to! Please? Itโs been forever since we went on a trip together. And you love New York!"
Y/N sighed. Saying no to Sofia had always been impossible. Despite everything, she still adored her. Even though she was Vernonโs little sister, their friendship had remained strong, even after the breakup.
"Fine," Y/N relented, shaking her head with a small smile.
Sofia squealed, clapping her hands together. "Yes! You wonโt regret it. And, uhโฆ Vernonโs gonna be there too."
Y/Nโs stomach twisted slightly, but she forced a neutral expression. "I figured."
Sofia hesitated before speaking again. "I justโ I feel bad, you know? I introduced you two, and now youโre both sad, and I feel responsible."
Y/N softened. "Itโs not your fault, Sof. We justโฆ didnโt work out."
Sofia nodded, but she still looked guilty. "I still think you guys were perfect together."
The city greeted them with its usual bustleโyellow taxis honking, the crisp scent of roasted nuts from street vendors, and the towering skyscrapers. Y/N took a deep breath, inhaling the familiar energy of the city she loved.
After checking into their separate hotel rooms, Sofia turned to Y/N. "Hey, Iโm gonna meet up with Vernon for a bit. Then later, weโll meet up with Joon and his friend, okay?"
Y/N blinked. "Youโre meeting Vernon alone?"
"Yeah, donโt worry. Iโll let you know how it goes."
Y/N just nodded, suddenly feeling more nervous than she expected.
Vernon walked beside Sofia, hands shoved in his pockets, as they strolled through a quiet part of the city. He had always been close with his sister, so he could tell she was up to something.
"Whyโd you really want to meet up, Sof?" he asked, eyeing her suspiciously.
She grinned. "What, I canโt just want to see my favorite brother?"
"Iโm your only brother."
"Exactly." She bumped his shoulder. "I wanted to tell you that Y/Nโs here too. And sheโs coming to the concert."
Vernon stopped walking. "She is?"
Sofia nodded. "Yeah. She came with me."
His heart did an involuntary flip. "Why didnโt she come with you now?"
Sofia raised a brow. "Seriously?"
Vernon exhaled, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah, that was dumb."
Sofia gave him a look before asking, "Do you still have feelings for her?"
Vernon stared at her. He knew the answer, but saying it out loud felt too real.
"It doesnโt matter, does it?" he muttered, avoiding her gaze.
The club was packed, music thrumming through the floor. Y/N laughed as she danced with Joonโs friend, feeling lighter than she had in months. Sofia was busy with Joon, their chemistry obvious. Drinks were flowing, and for once, Y/N allowed herself to just enjoy the moment.
Sofia posted stories throughout the night. One particular video captured Y/N twirling, laughing with the backup dancer. Harmless, really.
But when Vernon saw it, he saw red.
Vernon had spent the night pacing. He wasnโt the type to let jealousy consume him, but seeing Y/N like thatโso carefree, with someone elseโmade something inside him snap.
By morning, he couldnโt take it anymore.
He marched down to the hotel reception, asking for Y/Nโs room. When he found it, he knocked. Then knocked again. And again, until she finally groggily opened the door, hair messy from sleep.
"Vernon?" she asked, blinking in confusion.
He didnโt wait. He stepped inside, shutting the door behind him.
"What the hell was last night?" he demanded, voice sharp.
Y/N frowned. "Excuse me?"
"You were all over him!" His tone was nearly a growl. "Seriously, Y/N? One year together, and you move on just like that? With my backup dancer, of all people?"
Y/Nโs shock turned into anger. "Are you kidding me? Vernon, we broke up. You donโt get to tell me what I do anymore."
"I know, butโ!" He ran a hand through his hair, exhaling sharply. "Itโs hard, okay? Seeing you with someone else. It drives me insane."
She folded her arms. "Oh, and I suppose all those dating rumors about you donโt count?"
"Thatโs different!"
"How?"
He hesitated. "Because it was never real. None of it. But youโyou were dancing with him, laughing with him, letting him touch you!"
Her eyes widened. "Are you hearing yourself?"
His jaw clenched. "I canโt stand it, Y/N. I can't stand the idea of you with someone else. You were mine."
She softened, seeing the raw emotion in his eyes. "Then why didnโt you fight for us?"
His voice cracked. "Because I thought it was what you wanted."
She sighed. "Youโre an idiot."
And then, before she could stop herself, she stepped forward and hugged him. He exhaled shakily, his arms wrapping around her tightly.
"You smell like alcohol," he mumbled against her hair.
She laughed. "Yeah, we had a bit too much. I need a shower."
He smirked, watching as she grabbed some clothes and disappeared into the bathroom. He collapsed onto her bed, waiting.
When she returned, fresh and warm, she slid onto the bed beside him. He immediately pulled her into his chest.
"You were so jealous," she teased.
"Not the first time. Just the first time I showed it." He scoffed. "I don't like this side of me, that's why I never show it. To be honest I get jealous pretty easily. I don't even like it when I catch other men looking at you. But I try my best to hide it." he said looking down at her.
She grinned. "I liked it."
Vernon muttered, "I couldnโt sleep all night. That stupid videoโI couldnโt stop thinking about it."
Y/N sighed. "Well, Iโm tired too, because you woke me up. Letโs sleep a little longer."
He pulled her into his arms. "I love you. And Iโm never letting you go again. Youโre mine."
She smiled sleepy, burying her face against his chest. "I love you too."
He smirked. "Tomorrow, at the concertโtry to make me find you."
She grinned. "Blow me a kiss if you do."
He chuckled, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "Iโd find you anywhere."
"i hate you", you say, as soon as you hear a 'hello?' at the other side of the line.
"what?", he laughs awkwardly.
"yeah, i hate you."
joshua frowns. what do you mean you hate him? why do you hate him? what's even going on?
"i- what- wait, are you drunk?"
"a bit, yeah", you sigh. "it doesn't change the fact that i hate you. so, so much."
"wow, okay", he breathes in, taken aback. this is gonna be a good ride. "why do you hate me?"
"because i'm right here", you open your arms, even though he can't see it. "you have all of me for you, and you can't fucking see it. you just hate me, so i might as well hate you back."
joshua frowns once again, trying to find the right words.
"i... you're my best friend, what do you mean by that?"
"THAT'S IT! DID YOU HEAR IT?", you scream, and he gets his phone away from his ear. "you just said 'best friend'. ugh, i don't want that."
and right there, it clicks. oh my god, it clicks like it never clicked before. joshua gets what you mean, and by god, he hopes you mean what he thinks you mean.
"wait... what? what do you mean you don't want that?"
"i just... oh my god, this is so embarrassing, i'm so drunk", you sigh, head spinning around. "i just... i don't know, i might like you, okay? a lot, by the way. and i don't wanna be your friend anymore."
he laughs - and you're almost offended by that.
"so you wanna be more, is that what you're saying?"
"i don't know, you keep laughing at me."
and he almost laughs again, but he can imagine your pout and reddish, puffy cheeks and your messy hair. you must look cute.
"okay, why don't you hold onto that to tell me tomorrow when you're sober, um?"
"i don't want it too."
oh, joshua can so picture you stomping your feet right now.
"yeah, but it's better that way", he says with a smile. "maybe... maybe, if you're sober, i can tell you back that i like you too and i don't want you just as a friend neither. how does that sound?"
you think for a while. on his side of the line, there's only a fade noise of a random song playing at the club you are right now.
"hm, i don't like it. it sounds fake."
joshua laughs once again. "you're so drunk right now."
"yeah, i might be", you sigh. "i want you."
"i want you too", he nods. "but in the right way, okay?"
and you wanna say no, you wanna throw a tantrum and tell him to come get you, you wanna be as dramatic as you can be; but the reasonable side of you doesn't let you. so you just-
"yeah, okay", you roll your eyes. "can i see you tomorrow?"
"i'll be texting your friends to know you're safe and the moment you open your eyes tomorrow, i'll be by your door. does that sound good?"
"it does."
"okay then", he relaxes. "take care, okay? and don't forget..."
"what?"
"i love you too", he confesses for the first time, before hanging up on you.

โseokmin, get back here!โ
despite your call, your boyfriend continues to speed away from you, clutching his phone close to his chest.
โno! you said you were going to delete everything!โ he exclaims back, almost in horror of just the thought of his hard work being gone.
โi didnโt say that!โ you huff back, climbing over the couch to get to him faster.
seokmin has been showing you a cute video he got of a puppy the other day (with permission from the owner of course, even if it was awkward to ask) and right before he exited out of his gallery, you saw a familiar faceโyour face.
you squinted, asking him hesitantly why exactly he had over two hundred pictures of you and he froze up, giving you the perfect opportunity to open up the album ofโฆwell, just you.
most of them were ones youโd never seen before, and seokmin almost always showed you the pictures he took of you, even if they were candidโor so you had thought before seeing all of these.
there were some from the trip the two of you took to the beach during the summer, both of your birthdays, and evenโฆyesterday? he took photos of you yesterday?!
you click on the most recent ones, recognizing the back of your body as you walked in front of him on the way back to your place after stopping by the convenience store for ice cream, since seokmin wanted some.
you hadnโt even registered him taking these, and suddenly it made sense why he would be quiet sometimes when you were together, giving you a sweet smile if you asked before changing the topic to something elseโhe was always taking pictures and saving your time together so he could look back on it.
right now though, seokminโs pout once you corner him is the only thing on your mind as he looks at you pitifully.
โpleaseโฆiโm sorry for not telling you about these,โ he mutters, looking away once you make eye contact. โi just thought you looked really nice and wanted to remember it, thatโs all.โ
your heart melts a little as you respond, taking his free hand in yours softly. โiโm not mad at you. iโm justโฆsurprised at how sweet you can still be, despite knowing how you already are.โ
seokmin lights up but looks at you shyly. โitโs really not that big of a deal! iโm just glad you like them.โ
you giggle and he smiles back at you, kissing you gently on the cheek before sitting back down on the couch, taking your interlocked hand with him so you sit right next to him, like you always have.
โdo you wanna see my favourite ones?โ he asks, already scanning his phone screen for the ones in his mind, and you canโt help but let out a laugh.
โi would love to.โ
the grin you get back makes the rest of your day so much brighter than you thought it would have been, even with seokmin by your side.

CLUBS WERENโT USUALLY YOUR VIBE.
the bass, the crowd, the sticky floorsโall of it was fine in small doses, but not something you often sought out.
still, when seungcheol proposed a night out to have fun before the days got colder, and hansol turned to you with that soft, coaxing smile and said, โyouโre coming, right?โโyour resistance caved in a heartbeat.
thatโs how you ended up here, sandwiched in a booth with the boys at a lounge-style club with neon lights painting everything in shades of violet and gold. the music thumped through your chest, and the alcohol caused you to flush slightly red.
hansol had been sitting next to you the whole nightโhis thigh brushing yours, his arm lazily slung across the back of the booth behind you. you had spent the last hour laughing at chanโs dramatic reenactment of junhui trying to flirt in three languages, and every time you laughed, hansol smiled like you were the only one he could hear.
โiโm getting us another round,โ hansol said suddenly, sliding out of the booth. โsame for you?โ
you nodded, your fingers brushing his as you handed him your empty glass. โyeah, thanks, sol.โ
hansol smiled at you, then his signature lookโeyes soft like you were something to memorize. soon he disappeared into the crowd.
you waited.
minutes passed. you watched the booth shift around youโsoonyoung pulling jihoon and minghao to dance, seokmin whining about his lost jacket, and wonwoo trying to stop jeonghan from stealing his drink. everyone else already at the dance floor. it was a normal night out with your best friends.
but still no sign of hansol.
curious, you stood and scanned the bar. and thatโs when you saw him.
leaning against the counter, two drinks in hand, talking to a girl. she had long, sleek hair, one hand twirling around the straw in her glass, the other tucked flirtatiously under her chin. and hansolโฆ he was smiling.
that look. the one he always gave you. warm. intent. like he was listening with his whole soul.
but this time, it wasnโt for you.
you stomach twisted.
you forced yourself back into the booth and sat in silence, pretending to check your phone. the laughter around you felt like static, but little aches behind your ribs grew heavier with each second.
โyou good?โ jeonghan slid into the seat beside you with a fresh drink after failed attempts to take wonwooโs.
you offered a tight smile. โyeah, just a little tired.โ
jeonghan was smarter than that. you were having fun until hansol left, sitting quietly ever since. so, jeonghan followed your previous gaze.
to hansol.
to the girl.
and then right back to you.
a smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. โitโs hansol.โ
your heart jumped. โwhat?โ
he leaned in, whispering low. โyou look upset. like someone just walked off with the last piece of your favorite cake.โ
you scoffed. โitโs not like that. itโs really nothing.โ
jeonghan raised a brow, clearly not buying it. โmm. sure.โ you hated how your best friend could read you so well.
you stood abruptly, waving jeonghan off with your hands. โiโm heading home. iโll see everyone next time, okay?โ
jeonghan asked, voice gentler now, โwant me to tell him?โ
you shook your head. โno, he looks like heโs having a good time.โ
you slipped out the exit, letting the cool night air hit your cheeks. you didnโt know if it was the drinks or just your heart pulling you downward, but your chest ached.
thenโโy/n!โ
you turned around in the direction of the club.
hansol jogged toward you, the club lights casting a faint halo behind him. โwhy are you leaving already? you were fine when i left.โ
yoon jeonghan will so be hearing from you tomorrow.
you looked away. โitโs nothing. iโm just tired. you should head back inside, you seemed busy.โ
your best friend frowned. โy/n. come on. you think i wouldnโt notice if somethingโs off?โ
you didnโt answer.
hansol sighed, stepping closer. โokay, then iโm walking you home.โ
you blinked. โsol, you donโt have toโโ
โi want to,โ he said firmly.
you walked in silence for a while. the streets were quiet, the night air slightly cold. it should have been a peaceful walk home, but your thoughts churned.
you glanced at him. โsoโฆ who was the girl?โ
hansol looked over, confused. โwhat girl?โ
โthe one you were talking to at the bar.โ
he blinked, then laughed softly. โoh her? she was asking about mingyu.โ
โwhat?โ you stopped walking and he followed your actions.
hansol shrugged. โshe wanted to know if mingyu was single. apparently, they were meeting eyes the whole night and she saw us sitting in the same booth, so she assumed i knew him.โ
you stared at the pavement. โoh.โ
hansolโs voice was calmer. โwait, were you jealous?โ
your head snapped up and your heart stuttered.
you opened your mouthโbut no words came.
he smiled, almost to himself. โy/nโฆโ
โyes?โ you mumbled.
you turned, only to find him looking at you with that expression againโthe one you thought was only reserved for you.
โyouโre so blind,โ he said softly.
you swallowed. โwhat does that mean?โ
hansol took a step closer to you.
โiโve looked at you like this for years,โ he murmured. โeveryoneโs told meโthe guys tease me all the time. jeonghan says i look at you like youโre the answer to a question iโve been asking my whole life.โ
your breath hitched. โwhat?โ
โyou kept brushing it off, so i thought i just needed to wait. like if i stayed close, maybe one day youโd finally see me.โ
hansol added quietly. โso, do you see me now?โ
you couldnโt speak, shocked.
โgod, iโm in love with you, y/n,โ he said, voice trembling slightly. โi donโt know when it startedโmaybe when you dragged me through that rainstorm because you wanted ramen, or when you fell asleep on my shoulder during movie night, or maybe from the first time i met you. but i love you.โ
the world tilted slightly. chwe hansol has loved you this whole time.
you let out a shaky breath. โsol, iโm in love with you, too.โ
hansolโs eyes widenedโthen softened, impossibly more than before.
and just like that, the space between you disappeared. he leaned in slowly as if asking without words, and when your hand found his shirt and pulled him closer, that was answer enough.
his lips brushed against yoursโwarm, tender, unhurried. like the world wasnโt rushing like it never would again.
you pulled back just enough to whisper, โso, you really do look at me like youโre in love.โ
hansol smiled, forehead resting against yours.
โthatโs because i always have been.โ

seungcheol's eyes are still red, wet and puffy when he walks into your shared apartment. he sighs, puffing his cheeks and pouting just like a little kid.
his pout gets bigger when he hears you giggling.
"what?", seungcheol asks in a sharpy, cute tone, while he takes his shoes off and wear his slippers. "did you see it too?"
"i guess everyone saw it, babe."
seungcheol groans, using the sleeve of his black t-shirt to wipe his eyes. there's no sign of makeup on his face now, so his skin is all clear, with its natural flaws and marks.
"that son of a bitch", he curses, walking up to the couch and sitting beside you. "damn you, kwon soonyoung."
"yeah, okay", you pat his back. "let it all out."
seungcheol crosses his arms. usually he would be talking about caratland right now, running your ears out about how great it was, something funny seungkwan did backstage, or how thrilled he is to have wonwoo on his cooking show.
but right now? he's just sitting there, staring at the void with a frown on his beautiful face, not moving at all. and you know what that can lead to...
and honestly, it doesn't take much until seungcheol sniffs and you're no longer patting his back, but caressing now. he hates crying in front of people, but oh well - didn't he just do that in front of thousands and thousands of carats just now?
"it's okay", you tell him. "they're greateful for you, and i'm glad they expressed that today."
"i hate them", he playfully says, his voice sounding different because of the lump in his throat. "i'm gonna treat them all to dinner tomorrow for how much i hate them."
seungcheol breaks, his words chocking him up as he hiccups.

๐ค word count, 502 | for @kstrucknet, @maestro-net
"it's okay to cry seokmin. you didn't look stupid at all." smiling at your boyfriend's wet face, you cup your palm under his cheek, wiping the tears away with your thumb.
seokmin had just come backstage from finishing the second day of caratland, and you had expected him to cry at the endโyou were tearing up yourself, especially with the way all of the members were so soft with wonwoo, realizing that their time with him was coming to an end.
seokmin was one of the more uncontrollable criers of seventeen, and he proved it even now; tears were dripping down his sharp jawline as he quietly sobbed to himself, lips downturned into the meltiest frown you think you had ever seen.
"lovie, i'm sorry, i really am sorry, iโ" seokmin's apologizing for the third time in the past twenty minutes, and you shake your head, moving closer to your boyfriend as you cradle him towards your chest. he clings onto your shirt like he has nothing left, and your heart melts a little more, pressing a kiss to his scalp as you sigh.
"are you crying because you're going to miss wonwoo, baby boy?" you ask softly, and seokmin nods, head still on your chest as he sniffles.
"i honestly don't know why i'm crying anymore." seokmin lifts his head up from your chest, adjusting his hat as he sighs, looking down at his hands as he plays with his team ring.
"that's okay too. you know what i think?" you inquire quietly, and seokmin looks at you, big brown eyes glossy as he shakes his head.
"i think you're crying because you miss jeonghan, you're gonna miss wonwoo, and you just love carat so much, you can't help but give them everything." you take seokmin's hand in your own, tracing his knuckles as seokmin falters a bit, eyes watering again as he nods.
"am i right?" you question, and seokmin nods again, hand going to his eyes as he gently wipes away the tears, trying to be careful of his makeup. "mhm...i think you're right, lovie."
"what should i do? i don't know if i can go on without them." seokmin sighs, and you know who he's referring to; jeonghan and wonwoo. if you were being honest, you didn't know if you could go without them either. since they were seokmin's best friends, they were yours too.
"you can go on without them, seokmin. i know you canโeven though you don't want to, you're a strong person. you'll hold on for them, and they can trust you with their positions while they're gone. you'll be the man in the gap while they're absent." you pat seokmin's thigh, pressing a kiss to his tear-stained cheek as he nods.
"i will. i'll do it for carat." seokmin whispers softly, leaning his head on your shoulder as you squeeze his thigh reassuringly.
"that's my baby boy." you smile softly, pressing a kiss to seokmin's forehead as he sniffles once more, finally calming down.
the uncertainty hansol feels equal the thrill under his skin. he keeps hearing you talk but he doesn't actually listen- wait, maybe he should.
"so, yeah, i'm excited to see her", you nod. who's her? your friend who's moving out of the city and who you're gonna see tomorrow night?
"yeah, of course", he nods too. "make sure to have some fun with her, i bet you'll miss her."
your tiny 'i will' almost go unnoticed as the subway gets closer to you two. people start to walk to its door, patiently waiting for the train to stop and accommodate all of them.
it's the fourth that goes by, you shouldn't miss this one.
"i have to go..."
"um, yeah, okay", hansol says. "thank you so much for the night, i had a lot of fun."
"thank you, so did i."
you hug hansol, feeling how his body reacts to the way you're snaking your arms around his torso. he sighs, a tiny smile stamped on his lips.
but as you're about to let go, you can't help but think that... that's not what you actually want to do to him.
so you take your shot, pushing him off you a bit and hoping you won't mess your first date when you say-
"come here", you whisper, cupping his cheek and pulling him close again just so you can peck his lips.
hansol could explode in that very moment. his arms bring you even closer, the subway way long forgotten, and he also takes his shot when he deepens the kiss, sucking your bottom lip and pecking your lips again - and then your cheek, and then your jaw.
"i really have to go~", you giggle, and hansol groans.
"okay, sorry", he lets you go - after pecking your lips again -, and watches as your eyes shine at him. "can i text you later?"
you nod once again, maybe a little too eagerly, as you wave him goodbye and finally step into your train, door closing behind you.
oh, well. isn't hansol over the moon now?
have you considered giving me a tip? | ko-fi
