Pt.1 masterlist
You wake up. Now your third day of being in the squid games.
As the speaker goes off telling everyone that its morning time you sit up, groaning softly as your neck is aching from using Dae-ho's arm as a pillow the whole night. Your group around you wakes up as well, everyone looking dazed as they still find it hard to process the situation they are in.
Everyone in the game lines up and gets their breakfast, a piece of bread and some milk.
"what kind of breakfast is this" you think to yourself, your hunger really getting to you.
Despite the disappointment of bread for breakfast, you go and sit where your group would usually sit, waiting for everyone in the group to join as well.
You sit there, mindlessly eating your bread until Dae-ho comes and sits next to you.
"Hi baby how are you feeling?' he asks, giving you a small smile.
You just pout. "hungry.."
He frowns before giving you his bread.
"Nooo its fine..." You try to protest, knowing its not gonna get you anywhere.
He smiles "We've been through this already, I'm fine" He reassures you.
You frown and take the bread. You feel so useless, just eating peoples food even though it was offered to you.
"ahh.. actually it's fine really.. you need to eat..." you say as you hand the food back to him, your thoughts getting the best of you.
He looks at you softly before trying to negotiate. "How about we split it? You know what you have right now is not enough for you at all.."
You give in, to hungry to say no, "ok.." You smile as he gives you half his bread, though your piece is much bigger than his.
By now the rest of the group has joined you guys and all of you are just talking about whatever comes to mind, The next game, escaping, the fight that might take place tonight, and stuff like that.
Suddenly, the room starts spinning, and a wave of nausea hits you. You feel your head spin, and before you can react, you quickly push yourself up and speed-walk to the bathroom, trying to keep your balance. Dae-ho calls your name, but you donât respond, too focused on getting to the bathroom. Once inside, you rush into a stall and throw up everything you just ate. Afterward, you sit on the cold bathroom floor, your back against the stall, too weak to move. The nausea lingers, and you just close your eyes, wishing for it to pass.
"it must just be morning sickness.." you thought to yourself.
Even though you've only experienced it a few times, the games seem to be making it lot worse, most likely due to the amount of stress you're under.
You must've been in there for awhile as the voice on the speaker sounds once again. "please follow the guards to your next game."
You quickly get up, flushing the toilet and running out of the bathroom back over to your group.
Dae-ho looks panicked before he spots you. "Are you ok???" he asks worriedly.
You nod, panting from running so fast. "I just felt a little sick that's all."
The group exchanges worried glances, their faces filled with concern, though there isn't much they can do.
You step into the colorful room with stairs and begin to climb, but each step feels heavier. You struggle a bit, the stairs feeling like a mountain to your exhausted and sick body, and they only get harder as you go. Halfway up, you lose your footing and stumble, nearly falling backward.
Luckily for you Dae-ho was right behind you and quickly put his hands on your waist, steadying you.
"are you ok??" he asks, worry in this voice. "Do you need me to carry you?"
"N-no I got it.. I'm alright.." You regain your balance and continue walking up the stairs.
Dae-ho stays close behind you on high alert just incase you stumble again.
As you guys get to the next game you take in your surroundings. The room has a red circle platform with horses in the middle. A multitude of colorful doors are placed on the walls of the room and the ceiling is almost like one of a carnival tent with white and red stripes on it.
"this game is called mingle." The speaker says.
"Ohh.. we used to play something like this when I was younger, but you would have to get in groups by hugging" Jung-bae says to the group.
You feel a bit more relieved as he says that. At least someone knows what they are doing.
The speaker goes off a again. "all players will stand on the platform and as it spins. When the music stops a random number will be called out. You will have to form groups of that number and go into one of the rooms before the timer is up or you will be eliminated."
After the announcement your group immediately starts talking about what to do.
Dae-ho turns to you. "No matter what just stay with me.. ok?"
You nod, not even wanting to think about the two of you getting separated in a place like this.
Your group manages to get somewhat of a plan before the game starts, the platform starting to spin as some children's song plays.
You tightly grip onto Dae-ho's hand, wanting to insure you guys won't be separated and as you do so the platform abruptly stops.
"ten" the speaker says as a 30 second timer shows up.
Your group of five desperately searches for another group of five but only finds one of four. Suddenly, number 120, a member of the group of four runs off and grabs a random girl.
"we have ten now! Go to room 44! The green door!" she calls out.
All ten of you quickly run into the room, the doors locking soon behind you. Your hand never leaving Dae-ho's.
The ten of you all breathe heavily as the sound of gun shots and people begging for their lives are heard outside of the room.
You lean back against the wall, exhausted and scared. Your hands are shaking like crazy and it catches Dae-ho's attention. His thumb gently caresses the back of your hand, trying to comfort you the best he can in the moment. Then, the random lady starts yelling.
âYouâre alive because of me!â She exclaims before turning to Gi-hun, giving him a creepy look. âIt seems thereâs a reason youâve survived longer than you were supposed to.â She says as she smirks.
The lady then turns to you and just stares at you creepily for a bit, Dae-ho keeping a close eye on her to make sure she doesnât try anything.
Then, to your luck, doors unlock and all of you walk out. You cringe as you step in a pile of blood on the floor, but at this point you're pretty used to it.
Everyone gets back on the platform and then, it starts to spin, the song ringing loudly in your ears. Your heart feels like it's gonna beat out of your chest but you try to focus on the game as best as you can.
The platform stops once again. "four" the speaker says.
You all look at each other. There are five of you. You need four.
Gi-hun speaks up, not afraid to sacrifice himself. "you four go-"
"No, go ahead guys." Young-il cuts him off, already walking away, not giving any room for protest.
Gi-hun just stands there before getting dragged away by Jung-bae.
"we have no choice come on!" Jung-bae exclaims to all of you.
You all quickly run into a greyish purplish room. But Gi-hun hesitate to close the door as he's looking for Young-il.
The timer starts to get it it's last seconds before Gi-hun finally closes the door.
More gunshots are heard outside but you don't care at this point, You're just grateful you're alive.
The door soon unlock and everyone repeats the same process.
The platform starts to spin and you stumble a bit. Dae-ho quickly stables you, still holding onto your hand.
you squeeze his hand tighter as the platform stops.
"three" The speaker says.
"you three go- me and Young-il will find one more person!" Gi-hun says urgently.
You, Dae-ho, and Jung-bae waste no time running into one of the empty rooms.
Suddenly a random guy runs into your guys' room and you being the only girl and the weakest, he grabs you and try's to drag you out.
Dae-ho and Jung-bae both react at the same time. Dae-ho gently pushes you behind him as Him and Jung-bae shove the guy out of the room.
You breathe heavily, trying to figure out what just happened before Dae-ho turns around and bends down to your level.
"are you ok?" He asks, eyeing you everywhere for any sort of injury.
You just nod breathlessly and lean against him, putting your head against his chest as the door locks. He gently puts his arms around you, kissing your head softly.
"thank you guys" you say to the two boys with as much gratefulness as possible.
"of course" Jung-bae nods as he breathes heavily.
The doors soon unlock and Dae-ho lets go of you, taking your hand again as the three of you walk out of the room and reunite with the rest of your group.
You all look at each other relieved everyone survived before getting on the platform for what felt like the tenth time.
The song began once again as the platform spun slowly.
"Six" the speaker called out as the spinning stopped.
Your group turns to the group of four that went with a few games ago. You can't exactly tell what they are saying as everyone is yelling. They agree on something and you feel Dae-ho start running somewhere with you and the group of four following behind. He opens a door but the room already has people in it. The people in the room slammed the door shut before the same player from a few games ago, 120, started yelling. "Over here! This room is empty! hurry!"
All five of you started running towards the door and you all got inside on time except number 095 had fallen. 120 tried to go and save her but was shoved back in by some guy and before she could do anything, the doors shut and locked.
You had no idea what was happening all you saw was the young girls eyes from the rectangle hole in the door.
"unnie..." She said, fear in her voice.
"young-mi!" Player 120 exclaimed as she ran to the door, trying her absolute hardest to open it, but there was nothing she could do, the young girl had been shot.
Player 120 immediately went over to player 333, the guy who had stopped her from saving Young-mi, and started yelling at him.
Player 333 snapped back. "If you would've saved her you would all be dead right now! I'm the reason all of you are alive! Am I wrong?!"
You hesitantly spoke up. "He's right..."
Dae-ho soon followed after you, also agreeing.
Player 120 just stayed quiet as the door unlocked and everyone sorrowfully walked out of the room.
You all got back on the platform and Jung-bae turned to Gi-hun.
"what do you think it will be this time?" Jung-bae asked.
"two" Young-il asnwered.
Everyone in the group looked at him with worry. "why?" Jung-bae questioned.
"There are 126 people left, and there are 50 rooms. The rest will be killed." Young-il answered as the platform abruptly stopped again.
"two" the speaker called out.
You had no time to think before Dae-ho grabbed your hand and started running with you to a room.
While you were running some guy without a teammate shoved you and you fell to the floor, your arm going right into your stomach.
Dae-ho reacted quickly, immediately grabbing the guy and punching him before shoving him to give himself some more time to grab you.
You feel yourself being quickly lifted up off the floor and being carried into a room.
Dae-ho sets you down on the floor, the door locking as he looks you over frantically. "baby?? are you ok???"
All you can do is whimper, you had hit your head pretty hard when you fell and your arm had also went right into your stomach.
"Can you talk to me??" He grabs your face softly and makes you look at him.
"my head hurts" you say quietly.
Dae-hos face lights up, happy you can atleast talk, but he still looks very concerned. "yeah? Did you hit it?" he asks with worry in his voice.
You nod as the doors unlock.
He looks at the door before look back at you "can you walk?'
You nod, knowing its probably a lie but you get up nonetheless, slightly stumbling.
Dae-ho puts an arm around your waist. "lean on me baby.." He orders sofly.
You do just that, depending on him to hold you up as the both of you walk out of the door and reunite with your group.
Gi-hun sees the state you're in and looks visibly worried. "are you ok y/n?"
You nod, too out of it to speak.
Gi-hun, not believing you looks at Dae-ho, hoping he'll provide an answer.
Dae-ho just gives him an unsure look and shrugs as they walk out of the game room.
Dae-ho carefully helps you navigate your way down the stairs. "are you sure you don't want me to carry you?"
You nod, not wanting to be a burden on him. "I'm alright Dae.."
He sighs and nods as the two of you make your way down the stairs into the main area.
Your group sat in their usual area while you got some rest. They discussed the vote that would be taking place soon and how they only need seven players to change from O to X to be able to go home.
As the voice form the speaker calls out that the vote is starting, Dae-ho goes over to the sleeping area and softly wakes you up.
You groan softly "Do I have to..."
Dae-ho looks at you softly "yes.. we are voting now.."
You whine and sit up, on the verge of tears as you just want to sleep and go home.
Dae-ho sees this and frowns. "I know baby I'm sorry.." He says as he helps you up.
*time skip to vote*
You all have finished voting and it was 49 X and O 50. There was one person left to vote. Young-il. But he looked very suspicious. You crossed your fingers as Dae-ho put his head in your shoulder, not being able to watch.
*beep*
The buzzer went off and Young-il had voted for X. It was a tie. Everyone from your group sighed in relief. The guard's announced that since it was a tie there would be another vote tomorrow.
A bit after the vote everyone lined up for dinner. Your group sat back in their spot and you just sat in bed and ate. Dae-ho decided to give you some space as your mood wasn't good and he didn't wanna bother you.
As you ate in your bed you could here people yelling and you see Dae-ho in the middle of it. Confused you stand up and try to go over to him but the old lady grabs your wrist, stopping you.
"Please don't get involved..." She says softly.
You sigh and just sit next to her. "what are they fighting over.."
"We were trying to get some of the people that voted for O to vote for X but they just got offended.." She explains.
You just sigh and realize you've eaten all your kimbap.
"Did you eat enough?" The old lady asks softly.
You smile at her. "ya.. this was probably one of the most filling meals since we've got here.."
You and her have a small conversation before Dae-ho comes back over, looking pretty pissed.
"what happened?" you ask him.
He looks at you, his expression softening. "It's nothing baby don't worry about it." he said, not wanting to stress you out anymore.
As your group sat there and talked you ended up falling asleep, using Dae-ho's shoulder as a pillow while he had his arm around your waist, his hand resting on your lap.
You woke up to the sound of the speaker saying players had been eliminated. Confused, you looked at the group. "what happened?"
Gi-hun looked at you and replied. "there must've been a fight."
And he was right. The people on O team soon started saying that X tried to fight them first and the people on the X team saying that O tried to fight them first.
You cuddle closer to Dae-ho, not liking the situation you're in currently. He rubs your side softly as he watches the commotion that is currently going on. While everything is happening, Gi-hun takes the opportunity to tell everyone there is gonna be a fight tonight as how they are all gonna hide until its over and stuff.
You, on the other hand are freaking out, scared for your life, and your baby's. You cuddle into Dae-ho more as he listens to Gi-hun talk and you silently cry. When Dae-ho pulls away to go to the sleeping area, he sees your face.
"hey baby whats wrong are you ok??" He asks worriedly.
"I'm scared..." you admit.
"hey.. look at me.." He makes you look at him. "You know I would never let anything happen to you.. I would protect you with my life..."
You continue crying softly. "But the baby- what if- earlier when I fell my arm hit my stomach really hard so I don't even know if it's ok.."
Dae-ho looks concerned and puts his hand on your bump gently. "Does it hurt at all?" He asks.
"N-not right now but it hurt a lot before-" you stutter.
"Hey.. breathe.. You and the baby will be ok..And I will do everything I possibly can too ensure that.. I promise.." He says softly, now holding your face again.
Your nerves calm down a lot.. You trust him with your life.. you always have so why would he lie now? he would'nt.
He smiles at you and wipes your tears before softly kissing you. You kiss back and it just feels like everything you were scared of before doesn't matter anymore.
Your kiss was suddenly interrupted by the sound of a voice over the speaker, announcing that it was time for bed, followed by the lights flicking off. The abruptness of it snapped you both back to reality, and for a moment, you just sat there, a little dazed. The atmosphere shifted as the intimate moment faded into something more serious. You exchanged a glance with Dae-ho, and without a word, you both made your way toward the sleeping area, the mood now quiet as the both of you sat with the rest of the group and waited for the fight to start like Gi-hun said.
As you all settled in, you felt Dae-ho's arm slip around you, pulling you close. Seeking comfort, you cuddled into him, letting the warmth and safety of his embrace ease your worries. You grew so comfortable, the tension fading, and for a moment, you forgot that danger could be just around the corner. With Dae-ho by your side, you felt secure enough to drift off to sleep, knowing he would protect you. And soon the world outside fading into the background.

Pt.2 masterlist
You had just finished the first round in the squid games ,red light green light, and you were terrified as you sat in your bed. Why were people being shot? How are you gonna get out? What is happening? A thousand thoughts raced through your mind at once until you felt a hand on your shoulder.
You turn around and your met with the face of a worried old woman. It was Geum-Ja, the sweet woman you met during the first game.
âAre you ok?â She asked.
You nod, not exactly in the mood for talking.
Her eyes flickered down to your stomach before looking at you again. She smiled âif you need anything please let me know..â
You nod again, trying to hint at her you wanna be alone before you hear a man yelling, saying something about a vote.
The guards reply a bit after saying that there would be a vote after each game, and a vote soon commences.
â389âŠplease cast your voteâŠ.. 388.. please cast your voteâ The voice of the guard said.
You were so deep in thought that you didnât even notice who was currently walking down the aisle to place there vote until the buzzer went off.
âAnother person voted to stayâŠâ you thought in your mind⊠Wait what??
You couldnât see that well from where you were standing but you caught a glimpse of his face.
It was Dae-ho.
âNo⊠thereâs no way⊠why would he vote to stay.. it canât be h-â Your thoughts were soon cut off by the guards voice again.
â222.. please cast your voteâ
Jeez how long were you thinking for⊠whatever it doesnât matter⊠you walk down the aisle shyly, feeling everyoneâs eyes on you as you press the red button with the X on it. You donât dare to look behind you, knowing whoâs face youâd immediately see.
The votes for O only kept going up and by the end of the vote, O had won.
You feel the anxiety really getting to you and retreat to your bed, trying to run away from your worries. When you get there you feel a hand grab your wrist.
âY/nâŠâ Dae-ho says, a slight bit of panic in his voice.
You donât want to turn around but you force yourself to, looking up at him.
âWhat are you doing here???â He asks in a not so soft tone .
âI could ask you the same thingâŠâ you reply with an attitude, still upset about him voting O.
âI came to settle our debt-â He tries to explain.
You cut him off. âAnd you didnât think of telling me??â
He sighs trying to reason with you. âListen.. y/n⊠they said not to tell anyone⊠I couldnât risk losing the opportunity at the time⊠And you canât get upset at me when youâre literally here as wellâŠâ
You rub your face in frustration. âIâm not upset at you for being here Iâm upset you didnât tell me and even more upset you chose to stay!â
âI didnât know you were here.. if I had known that I wouldâve voted X in a heart beat⊠We need the money babyâŠ.â He replyâs, his tone softening.
âThis money is not worth dying forâŠâ you say as you start to walk away.
âY/n stopâŠ.â He grabs your arm softly.
âWhatâŠ.â You reply.
âWe arenât done talkingâŠâ he says, pulling you back towards him.
You sigh. âWhat else is there to talk aboutâ
âWhy are you here..â He asks. He thinks he knows the answer but he just wants to hear it from you.
âFor the same reason you areâŠâ You half lie. Yes you are here to try and settle your debt but also to get a little extra money for the baby.
He sighs, not knowing what to say.
You just turn around and start walking away before he grabs you once again but this time pulling you into his arms.
Youâre surprised but you hug him back, not realizing how much you needed it.
While hugging you, Dae-ho couldnât help but realize that it felt different, the way your bodyâs pressed together wasnât quite as comfortable as your stomach was blocking him from getting to close.
He pulled away looking down at you.
âY/n..?â
You looked away, realizing he probably noticed.
Five months before you joined the squid game you found out you were pregnant. You hid it from Dae-ho, wearing sweaters when your bump started to get a little noticeable and just saying you were cold despite it being summer, he didnât think much of it. It was quite easy to hide because he was rarely home as he was looking for jobs.
You didnât want to hide this from him. But you did, in fear that something would happen with your relationship as you wanted to keep the baby. You didnât have a plan, you didnât know when you were gonna tell him, all you knew was that you were gonna hide it for as long as possible.
Dae-hoâs hand on your arm snapped you back into reality. You look up at his worried face and just start crying, the hormones getting to you.
âHeyâŠ. Whatâs going onâŠâ He asks softly.
âI- Iâm sorry-â You stutter.
âTalk to me babyâŠâ He puts a hand on your waist.
You back up, not wanting to be reminded that he knows now.
He keeps his distance but it kills him to see you like this.
âIâm- Iâm pregnant-âŠâ you say softly as you continue crying.
âW-â He struggles to find his words âFor how long??-âŠâ
âFive monthsâŠ.â You admit.
âWhy didnât you tell me baby??â He says, still in shock.
âIâm sorryâŠâ you continue crying into your hands.
He walks over to you and hugs you tightly.
You cry into his chest. âI thought- you would be mad..â
âMad? Why would I be mad at youâŠ.â He asks softly.
âI donât knowâŠ.â You say, starting to calm down a little.
He continues to hold you and comfort you, silently cursing at himself for voting O, now realizing how much harder this is gonna be.
Later that evening you and Dae-ho join a group of three other boys, Gi-hun, Young-il, and Jung-bae.
You sit with the boys, your arms resting around your stomach out of habit and Jung-bae canât help but notice.
âIâm gonna go take a quick nap..â You say to the group, your exhaustion getting the best of you.
You distinctively hear Gi-hun say something about dinner soon but just brush it off, too tired to even listen.
âIâll be fine..â you say as you walk to your nearby bed and collapse on it.
Once Jung-bae notices youâre gone he looks at Dae-ho. âIs she um.. yk..â He asks nosily.
Dae-ho just sighs and nods and the group looks a little shocked, Feeling a newfound protectiveness for you, their new group mate.
After the group gets over the initial shock of the situation they start making a plan on what to do for the next games and how they are gonna survive as a group.
The sound of a voice saying to line up for dinner interrupts their conversation and Dae-ho goes to wake you up. You groan, not wanting to get up and slowly get out of bed before following him into the line. (He lets you go first cause heâs a gentleman đ)
You guys get your food and go back to the spot where you were previously sitting. Right when you sat down a wave of nausea hit you and you just didnât want to eat at all.
Dae-ho notices this. âHey are you ok?â
You whimper slightly. âI canât eatâŠâ
The group looks at you concerned and Dae-ho speaks up again. âWhy whatâs wrong?â
âI donât know I just feel sickâŠâ You reply, leaning on him.
He rubs your arm softly before young-il speaks up. âYou should really try to eat⊠the next meal wonât be till tomorrow morning⊠thatâs probably not safe considering-â
Dae-ho cuts him off, not wanting to have you be reminded of it and get more stressed right now. âHeâs right⊠try to eat just a little hm?â
You pout at him. âfine..â
You take small bites of your food, itâs not terrible but itâs definitely not making your nausea any better. Nonetheless you push through, knowing that you need to eat for the baby.
Dae-ho looks at you happily, glad you decided to eat.
You try to eat as much as you can before you just set the food down and lean on Dae-ho again, his presence comforting you through your sickness.
You end up falling asleep on him as the group just talks and continues their plan.
Once again, the voice on the speaker starts talking saying itâs time for bed or something. You donât really know as youâre half asleep.
You feel Dae-ho softly guiding you off of where you were sitting and the next thing you know youâre in your bed, Dae-ho softly putting the covers over you before kissing your forehead.
âGoodnight N/N, I love you..â He says softly.
You smile sleepily at the nickname and reply. âGoodnight Dae.. I love you too..â
The rest is a blur until you finally fall asleep.
The next morning starts the same as the first. Everyone lines up to get breakfast.
You get your food, actually hungry this time and open the tin container, immediately eating everything while sitting in your bed. Dae-ho is with the group but if youâre being honest youâre not in the mood to socialize this morning so he decided to give you some space. That is until the old woman, Geum-ja, came up to you again.
âHow are you feeling?â She asked sweetly.
âBetterâŠâ You reply shortly.
She holds her tin of food in her hands as she looks down at your empty one before handing you hers.
âOh- no no itâs fine really-â you try to reason with her, not wanting to take food from her.
âOh donât be silly itâs ok⊠You need to eat more..â she smiles as she hands you her food.
You bow, very thankful because youâre really hungry. âThank you- you really didnât have too..â
âDonât mention itâ she gives you a smile before her son comes over telling her to not scare him like that.
You sit there awkwardly as they talk before the old woman waves goodbye to you and smiles. You wave back at her before eating the food she gave you.
Shortly after eating the speaker says that itâs time for the first game and to follow the guards. You remember what Gi-hun told your group last night, pick the triangle. Knowing what to do for this next game, you feel pretty confident but are still nervous.
You rejoin with your group as you guys walk towards the doors into the colorful room with stairs.
You all walk in silence before Dae-ho speaks up. âYou feeling better?â
You nod and reply. âYa⊠I was actually able to eat so I feel alot betterâ
Dae-ho smiles and keeps walking up the stairs.
Everyone gets to the door and when it opens, confusion fills the room.
âThis is the dalgona game.. right?â you ask Gi-hun, really confused.
He sighs and looks at you. âI donât know what this is..â
The familiar feeling of anxiety crept back up your body but you tried to keep it at shore as everyone walked into the room.
Everyone stayed by their group as the rules for the game came over the speaker. âThis game is the six-legged pentathlon. A group of five will be connected by their ankles in the order of who is gonna play the first mini game to who is gonna play the last. The Mini games consist of the following: Dakji, flying stone, gonggi, spinning tops, and Jegi. The group will complete the five mini games within the time limit and cross the finish line or they will be eliminated.â
After the announcement everyone immediately started scrambling, trying to find groups but the five of you just stayed with each other, discussing who was gonna do what.
Since your the only girl in the group everyone excepted you to know how to play gonggi but you surprisingly didnât. Luckily for you guys Dae-ho would play it with his sisters and he get really good at it. So that was settled. Now everyone else just had to figure out what they were gonna do.
âI can do DakjiâŠâ you said softly, not really knowing what else to do.
Everyone agreed on it and the rest of the line up was decided. You do Dakji, Jung-bae does flying stone, Dae-ho does gonggi, Young-il does spinning tops, and Gi-hun does Jegi.
Your groups discussion was soon interrupted by the first two groups going up, who soon later both lost.
As the games went on the waiting players became more immersed in watching the other players play and started cheering them on, acting as an audience.
A group finally won and everyone started cheering and jumping but you felt a hand on your shoulder. âDonât jump donât jumpâ Dae-ho said softly, not wanting you to use your energy or stress your body out.
You listened to him but kept cheering along with everyone else. For a second, you forgot this was a game where you could die and youâre not here to have fun. That was until gun shots from the other side of the room interrupted everyoneâs cheering and brought them back to the harsh reality.
After many games it was your teams turn. You were the second to last team to play therefore you had no audience which your group was sad about. You on the other hand had no room to be sad as you were internally freaking out.
Your group lined up and your ankles got chained together. Then. The game started.
Your group walks in sync to the first mini game, Dakji.
You grab square piece of paper and throw it as hard as possible at the one on the floor, and to your surprise, it flips over. The group cheered as the walked to the next mini game. Jung-bae grabbed the stone and threw it at the other one, hitting it perfectly. The group cheered again and continued walking to the next one. They all sat on the floor in-front of a small table as Dae-ho skillfully handled the gonggi. Everyone watches in amazement as they pass right away.
They get up and walk to the next mini game, spinning tops. Everything was going good until Young-il messed up. Over and over and over. At this point it just seemed like he was doing it on purpose cause how can you possibly throw it behind you?? (Bro was totally doing it on purpose đ)
After some focusing and stressing he finally got it. But you guys had no time to spare. Everyone quickly made their way over to the next mini game. Gi-hun quickly kicked the Jegi four times before kicking it way in-front of him.
Your heart stopped. âThis is itâ you thought to yourself before you were yanked forward towards the finish line. Young-il had helped Gi-hun kick it last second.
You guys passed the finish line, all relieved until you saw the other team in-front of you get shot. Despite winning, this made your heart heavy, remembering the situation youâre still in.
After getting your ankles unchained all of you walked back into the room, getting stares from everyone and heating groans from people that wished more people would die.
You stayed silent the rest of the evening until the vote. Your group had collectively decided to vote for X this time. You were sure you were gonna make it out. Until you werenât.
By the end of the vote, O won again. And even worse, Jung-bae voted for O. Your own team member!
After realizing you were gonna be stuck in this hell hole for another game you definitely didnât feel like eating, you got up and went into the bathroom, getting sick thinking about what you saw today and just because of your pregnancy in general.
*knock knock* âare you ok y/n?â The old woman says from outside the stall door.
âYa-â you wipe your mouth off with toilet paper before flushing the toilet and coming out.
âRemember if you need anything donât be afraid to ask meâŠâ She says reassuringly.
âThank you..â you give her a soft smile before going to wash your hands.
When you come out of the bathroom you go back over to your group and see Jung-bae sitting with them again. Dae-ho mustâve brought him back.
You sigh and sit with them.
Dae-ho looks at you concerned. âAre you ok did you eatâ
âI canât DaeâŠâ you reply tiredly and lean on him once again.
âCmon baby just a littleâŠâ he nudges you.
You force yourself to remember that you canât be skipping meals now due to your baby, Before sighing. âOkâŠâ
You eat some of the food, the nausea surprisingly going away.
âDrink some water too..â Dae-ho reminds you.
You nod and drink your water, immediately feeling alot better, still leaning on him.
Your eyes become heavy and you distinctively hear the group talking about something to do with a fight but you donât pay much attention and fall asleep on Dae-hoâs shoulder.
*time skip to night*
You wake up on a mattress on the floor, super confused, and look to your right and see Dae-ho sleeping under a bed on the mattress? đ
You look to your left and see young-il and Jung-bae also under the beds on a mattress.
Confused, you sit up and see Gi-hun awake, just sitting there. You get up and walk over to him.
âI need to use the bathroomâ you say quietly to him.
Gi-hun looks at you. âItâs too dangerous to go alone-â
âIâll go with herâ the old woman says from the bed above you.
You and the old woman go over to the bathroom, only to be refused entry by the guards. So the old woman being the baddie she is puts on a pretty convincing sob story before the guards finally let you guys in, another girl showing up behind you guys and asking if she should come too.
âDonât worry sheâs a womanâ the old woman says and the other girl follows you guys into the bathroom.
You quickly go into a stall and just cry. Youâre so scared and you just wanna go home. You wanna lay in your bed again. You donât even care if youâre in debt you just wanna go home.
Your thoughts are interrupted by the old woman opening the door.
âAre you ok? Is your baby coming? Is it your stomach?â The old woman questions you worriedly.
âIâm so scaredâ you say crying more before she hugs you tightly.
âItâs ok..â she comforts you.
Thatâs the last thing that things feel like right now. âOkâ.
You calm down after a bit and she leads you back over to your bed.
You step in between Gi-hun and Jung-bae, who is now up, to get to your bed.
You notice the Dae-ho is literally half way on your bed so you just decide to use his arm as a pillow. He gets a little startled but immediately falls asleep after. You hold onto his arm in your sleep, him being the only way to comfort you in this hell. After a bit of thinking you slowly drift off to sleep, feeling a little better that youâre not alone in this.
a/n: thank you for reading this took absolutely forever! I want to make a part two so let me know if you guys would be interested!!

Seungcheol: utterly confused
âIâm sorry, what?â he lets out a soft laugh as you note his tendency to pout and sulk as a âmanufacturing problem.â You nod with exaggeration, pointing at his lips. âThe pouting and sulking, even though theyâre cute, I might call it a minor glitch from this 1995 model.â And the aforementioned pout made its way to Cheolâs face. âA glitch? Yah, do you want to return me or something?â Gasping, you grasp at his hand. âAbsolutely not! This is limited edition. Besides, the pros far outweigh.â And heâs just shaking his head because how on earth did you come up with this concept? Stunt? Tomfoolery? But aside from the small bickers, I feel like Cheolâs confusion is easily outweighed by his amusement with you. âWould you call my snuggles a con then?â he asked, wrapping his arms around your shoulder. You shook your head. âNope,â you reply, poking his cheek. âThat and the date nights are the best part of the investment. Yâall, this one spoils me,â you address your phone. Seungcheol could only sigh, squeezing your frame. âI donât know whether I should be flattered or concerned by this whole thing, but Iâll take it.â âFlattered,â you say firmly, leaning into him. âDefinitely flattered.â âAnd maybe a little confused,â he mutters under his breath, smiling softly as he rests his chin on your head.
Jeonghan: complies (question mark) cause heâll do it to you too
Dude, heâd flip the script on you quick. Heâs already getting the gist of it when you grab his shoulders, saying, âI love the upgraded version because it has broad shoulders. Optimal for crashing into or crying on, itâs resilient, so both occasions are well accommodated for.â A small laugh escaped your lips, a knowing one escaping his. âBut for the cons: this one is constantly tired and constantly cheats on game nights, so Iâll have to speak to the manufacturerââ âExcuse me?â he smiles, hands crossed. âItâs not like you donât cheat at Uno too.â âWell, I wouldnât have if you didnât peek at my cards.â And then flip. âSee, everybody, this is why my model needs upgradingââ he began, and youâre left speechless. Itâs now his turn to stand behind you and grab both sides of your shoulders. âIt complains too much when she does the same exact thing,â Jeonghan mimics your tone, which earns him a slap on the side and an âExcuse me?!â
Joshua: endearingly confused
âI like this one because it plays guitar,â you began, studying the way his face moves. âIt also swore to love me for the rest of our lives, hence the upgrade to husband I got two years ago.â Shua chuckled a âSorry?â though you think he just found it endearing how you manage to brag about him in the weirdest way possible. He enjoys the subtle compliments nonetheless and complies when you tug at his arms to show âthis modelâs muscles.â He couldnât hide his laughter at that oneâyouâre his biggest ego boost. And I kid you not, this man will utter a small âThank youâ when you say, âMakes the most wonderful beaded bracelets, would make a great dad one day. 10 out of 10 would recommend,â which was definitely a hint, one he definitely caught and will absolutely think about for days to come.
Junhui: confused.Â
Just confused. Full stop. Like youâd be saying, âThe model I got can act, sing, dance, so itâs very versatile,â and Jun would, off the bat, be like, âHm?â because he thought you dragged him into a TikTok dance challenge but found himself amidst unusually structured compliments. Expect a lot of âWhat?â, âY/N?â, âWhat did you say?â, and âHuh?â said with something similar to childlike wonder as he fondly looks at you through the screen, watching you buzz around him, pointing out his every feature. He lost it when you said, âHas three imaginary cat friends named Open, Close, and Lock. Questionable but endearing.â And when youâre finished recording, I bet you heâd still be utterly lost. âWhat was that for, baobei?â A laugh bubbles out of him, and yet his eyebrows are still unmistakably scrunched. You canât help but giggle. âJust a trend, Junhui, donât think too much about it, hmm?â And heâd answer nervously with a âYeah, okay, I guess.â Poor baby is so confused, huhuhu.
He knew when you dragged him in front of your phone, this was yet another one of your antics. âJust stand there, okay? Itâs for... content,â you smiled, earning an âAlright, Y/N,â and he's just there as you busy yourself around him. Patient as ever. Pliant as ever. I feel like Wonwooâs used to your shenanigans over the years so much so that this was one of the less odd ones. But the whole time, there was this soft smile playing on his lips. He would only look at you and never through the screen because he knows that makes you nervous. Which proved to be right, as mid-explaining how âthis 1996 model was one of the best ones yet,â you made eye contact with said model and then just couldnât continue talking. (I mean, same here, honestly.) âGo on, darlingââ he starts, and you immediately shook your head, burying your face in his chest as you muffled, âD-donât look at me like that.â Will he listen? Nope. Wonwoo would definitely keep looking at you like that, heart eyes silently thrown through his black-rimmed glasses.
Jihoon: confuse
I feel like the compliments will leave his ears unmistakably red, like as you go through the list of humble brags you have regarding the love of your life, his ears would only go redder and redder. âRight, so this 1996 model I got in Busan. Actually, Iâve known the manufacturers well before I got it, so installation was easy,â you start, hands lingering on his as Jihoon pulls a face, squinting at you. âWait, manufacturers? My parents?â Nodding confidently, âExactly!â you grin, âThe build is impeccable. Mine comes with solid arms and abs. Attractive, I know.â You paused for dramatic effect, to which Hoon laughs at. âBut also a very attractive brain. It has a knack for songwriting, which I didnât know I got. Bonus, though, because sometimes it writes me songs.â Jihoon groans, dragging a hand over his face, but the red tint creeping up his ears is undeniable. âYouâre making this so weird. Please donât call my parents âmanufacturers.ââ âBut itâs the theme!â you giggle. âBesides, Iâm right, arenât I? I owe your parents a whole bunch for raising the love of my life,â you note, wrapping your arms around him. Jihoon sighs, clearly defeated but unable to hide the tiny, bashful smile that finally breaks through. âYouâre impossible.â
Minghao: confused but once he got the gist of it he complies
Minghao would definitely be confused the entire time. âWait, so youâre... what? Showing me off like Iâm some kind of limited-edition collectible?â You nod enthusiastically. âNothing weird, just wanna show you off for a bit.â And he pulls this âI donât get it, but whatever you say, beautifulâ face that you know oh so well. So when you describe how, âI got this model from Anshan, Liaoning, and I must say⊠quality? Top tier,â heâs chuckling like a little kid as you twirl him around for a â360 view.â âOne of the things I requested from the manufacturer was great fashion sense, and Iâm happy to report that I got the full upgrade.â And you can hear him mumble, ââŠItâs called personal style, but okay.â He mumbles, his lips twitching into a small smile as he adjusts the hem of his shirt, clearly playing along despite his lingering confusion. And you jokingly squeak, âLove the humility, comes standard with the base model.â Minghao rolls his eyes, but the corners of his mouth lift in amusement. âI still donât get why this is a thing, but if it makes you happyâŠâ âIt does,â you grin. He smiles in return, âWell, in that case, show them the ring. Diamond sold separately.â
This man loves seeing you happy, and if itâs a silly trend that you want him to do, itâs a silly trend, and a complying husband youâll get. âYou get the muscles and the emotional intelligence with this 1997 model, crazy right? They donât put them out like these anymore,â you inform your hypothetical audience as you cling onto him, one hand pressed softly against his chest, the other grabbing his arms. Seokmin blinks down at you, cheeks slightly pink but smiling like a lovesick puppy. Grinning at him through the screen, you continued with, âI did upgrade to husband recently; that comes with limitless cuddles, pizza movie nights, and a hardwareââ you show the ring on his finger, âa ring!â He grins, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and pulling you closer. âI might charge extra for those cuddles though, that okay?â You gasped, mock concern painted on your face. âI thought they were free, Min-ah.â He could only shake his head. âNope, payment in kisses, and itâs due... right now.â
Seungkwan: very confused and willing to fight
When you proposed the idea to him, heâs wide-eyed, questioning you. âWait, wait. What trend?â You roll your eyes knowingly. âHusband haul trend, Kwan. Oh, you didnât watch the TikTok I sent you, did you?â He squints at you. âYou send me 5 per day, Y/N!â Giggling as you pull his arm to stand in front of your phone, you exclaim, âOkay, okay! But this oneâs cute, I promise. Iâm just gonna brag about you.â And the look he gave you was suspicious, so close to saying no, but youâre pulling that face that makes ânoâ sound so difficult to say. âFine, but if you say one ridiculous thing about me, Iâm canceling my wife subscription.â âOh, so you did watch it!â You were ranting about how, âFound this model in a Jeju elementary school actually, so Iâve known it for quite some time now. One of the sweetest models out there if I do say so myself,â and a soft smile slowly made its way to his face, but cut toâ âHowever, this model snacks uncontrollablyââ âYa!â
Vernon: confused and yet complies
Anon, I couldnât agree with you more. So imagine dragging him in front of your phone and telling him, âJust stay still, alright? This is just for content.â And he took it too literally. Like, bro just stands. First because he was told to, but then you started with, âAlright, hereâs the husband haul yaâll have been asking me about,â and Vernon went, âWhat?â You could only giggle before continuing. His face? Flat. Posture? Straight. Only moving slightly when you inevitably grabbed his shoulders to turn him around. But you know that face he does when heâs just utterly confused? Yeah, he pulled that expression when you said, âCalled himself daddy in a track once. Might be weird for some, but it was hot to me. Moving onââ Nonnieâs face screams, dude? Wtf? You canât help but laugh as you watch him through your screen. When youâre done recording, you turn to hug him, but he beats you to it. âWhat was that for?â he giggled softly, unsure whether to laugh or ask for clarification. âJust having fun. Thanks for standing still.â You mimicked his giggle. And I feel like Vernon canât do anything but shake his head. âYouâre so weird.â
Chan: confused, complies(?), and fights back
Chan is the epitome of â???â His face is just constantly scrunched up, and I think heâs probably trying to put the pieces together as you shoot the video. âY/n, whatâsââ âSo, this model I got in 2015, I knew it since it was a baby basically andââ and heâs like, what⊠alright, guess Iâm an it now. This is what my relationship has simmered down to. And there was a point where you dragged him by the arm to turn around, âGreat height, strong arms,â you chuckled as you squeezed his arms, and I bet you felt him flex a little. âLifted me once as âweightsâ in the gym, so, points for creativity,â and Chan canât help but lean onto you a bit, laughing. âWhat is this, baby?â âShushâinfatuated with otters, like so much. I was concerned when it wanted to name our future child âOtter,â so thatâs one of the minuses I have about this model.â And that had him laughing, grabbing you by the waist. âYa! That was one time! And I was drunk!â And you canât help but laugh with him. âRIGHT! Loves whiskey more than meââ âWhat is this?! A product review!? Am I the product?!â He held you closer, continuing his fits of laughter.
