author's note: i would like to give a big thank you to my amazing beautiful gorjus rhinnie @himewonu for giving me this idea and helping me w this fic !! and also my babays noonoo @moonkyeom/ @dokries and rania @wheeboo for also helping me write so much of this and listening to me tweak out 💔 also lowk feel like i lost the plot of jeonghan's pathalogical lying-ness so pls forgive me if u noticed that too... also please have mercy on me this is my first fully written fic and not my usual hcs.. so im still trying to figure out the little things in writing 😞🙏🏽
author's note (cont.): all the matcha flavors are from blank street AND no hate to ube im ngl i haven't even tried it, the hate is just for the plot AND starbucks drinks mentioned BUT I DO NOT SUPPORT STARBUCKS AT ALL!!! (free palestine! 🍉) this is just for the plot 🙏🏽 AND this has been sitting my drafts and being written since july so um if this sounds like its out of season... ignore it😬
also!!! part of this, specifically the flashback, was inspired by @jayflrt's a stoner's guide to starbucks
"Here you go, Jeonghan, your iced americano and croissant! Would you like extra napkins with that?"
"Oh yeah, sure." I don't even need these, what the hell am I saying?
With a slightly puzzled look on your face, you hand him the napkins anyway. "Here are your napkins, sir. Enjoy your meal!"
He watches you in awe and also slight confusion as to why he just got a whole stack of napkins without reason.
You've had this power for as long as you could remember. You were around the age of 10 when you truly realized that you could hear the thoughts of your friends, teachers, and even your own parents.
Has life been hard dealing with this? A lot of times, yeah. You've gotten into quite a few dilemmas due to your power, like how you found out about your birthday gifts that were a supposed 'surprise' as a child, or how you found out your ex-boyfriend was trying to hit on other girls on Instagram.
Sometimes, the curiosity was too hard to resist, and it was only natural for you to just take a tiny peek into the heads of your friends or first dates, just so you could get an idea of what’s going on.
The same applies to customers; Since you're a barista, you've come across many people asking you about new drinks or recommendations on their order, so you usually read into their heads to find what they like for the right recommendations.
It definitely entertained you with some customers… namely, Yoon Jeonghan, who always seemed confused at his own lying.
ˋ°•*⁀➷.*♡
"Good morning, Jeonghan! Would you like to try something from our new line of matcha-flavored drinks?" you say, with your signature customer service smile on your face.
"Could you recommend something?" Fuck, I was supposed to get the usual! What am I doing? I don't even LIKE matcha...
You try your best to hide the confusion on your face and proceed to recommend to him your favorite, "I love the strawberry shortcake matcha! It's perfect for people new to matcha, or those who aren't big fans of it."
How the hell did she know I didn't like matcha...
"Y-yeah sure, I'll try the strawberry shortcake! Could I get a strawberry donut with that? Thanks." Jeonghan stutters out, a little embarrassed that he just agreed to drink something so performative.
You smile, "Of course! Anything else?"
"Nope, that's all."
What the hell does Cheol mean by "I have a crush on yn???" Jeonghan thinks with furrowed brows, staring deep into his text messages.
FLASHBACK TO LAST WEEK:
Jeonghan is staring. At you.
He's staring with such an intense gaze as you swiftly move around your coworker with your classic "focused work mode" face: brows furrowed and tongue slightly stuck out as you try making customers' drinks as fast as you can.
He finds your little habits cute, and as much as he's tried to deny it, he's starting to find you cute, too. He's noticed how your smile seems to be brighter when you look at him, your sweet voice while calling customers' names, and your big, sparkly eyes under the dim cafe lighting.
Huh. He's never realized how pretty you were until now.
He's snapped out of his trance, utterly confused at what he's been doing this whole time.
"Yo, y'know you've been staring at yn for the past 5 minutes, right?" Joshua starts.
"Are you sure you aren't starting to think she's really cute? Or that you actually have some attraction towards her?" Seungcheol adds.
Jeonghan is quick to shut those ideas down, "What? No! I was, uhh, just staring at the signboard. I guess I just zoned out."
"Hm, I didn't know there was a signboard hovering over Yn's head this whole time." Seungcheol quips.
"Shut up!" Jeonghan shoots back.
OPERATION JEONGYN: DAY 1
"G'morning Jeonghan! What would you like to order today? I'm assuming the usual?" You chirp, flashing Jeonghan a bright smile.
"U-uh, actually.. No! I was wondering if I could order a small taro milk tea? I'm trying something new every day to... uhh... expand my palate! Heh..."
Oh, I am SO beating Joshua's ass when I get home... I don’t even fucking like taro! It’s okay! At least I can try and get close to Yn...
You now look like you're gonna jump out of your own skin after hearing that.
"Are you okay, Ynnie?" he asks, looking at you, confused.
Suddenly flustered, you stutter out, "H-Huh? Oh no, I'm fine! Just got one of those cold jitters! And by the way--- Taro is my favorite flavor of milk tea! I'm sure you'll love it!"
Now, you're frantically trying to make the best taro milk tea you've ever made in your entire life---because your crush most definitely cannot go the rest of his life not trying or liking taro milk tea.
And maybe, so you can get him to like you back.
Somehow, under some sort of miracle, Yoon Jeonghan liked the drink.
What the hell did she put in this???? I remember taro tasting like absolute booty... Was it even taro? I think booty something--ooby? Oops. I'll ask Cheol later, I guess...
ˋ°•*⁀➷.*♡
OPERATION JEONGYN: DAY 2
"Good morning Ynnie! I was hoping to try something new again today. Do you have any recommendations?" Jeonghan asks with a small smile.
I just gotta do this for like two more weeks... I got this! I NEED MY BLACK COFFEE. It's okay! I'll get Yn, and she'll fall in love with me, and we'll live happily ever after! Just two. more. weeks.
You smile brighter than you planned to.
"Of course, Jeonghan! Since you're trying new things, I'll give you the unicorn frappe—with caffeine—so you'll still get your energy! It's a mix of cotton candy and birthday cake flavoring, so I hope you'll like the sweetness."
Your enthusiasm and willingness to help him leaves him mesmerized—as if he isn't already—and just admiring how cute you look in your uniform with your hair pinned back, your bangs and strands of hair falling beneath your visor. To him, you look like the epitome of beauty.
His eye slightly twitches at the sound of unicorn, though.
Are you kidding me? A UNICORN frappe. If I get clowned for this, I'm going to riot against those two. The things I do for love....
ˋ°•*⁀➷.*♡
OPERATION JEONGYN: DAY 16
You've been growing closer and bolder with Jeonghan these past few days... And today is the day.
You're going to write your phone number. On his cup.
The extra chit-chat you've engaged in with him simply isn't enough. You feel the need to talk to him even more, get to know him better, and make him absolutely swoon for you—as if he isn't already.
"Jeonghan! Here's your caramel ribbon crunch frappe! I hope you enjoy it!" you giggle.
Confused as to why you're extra giddy today, he still gladly accepts the drink. A little black heart peeks out from the side of his cup, so he turns it around and finds "Hi! I would love to talk to you more outside the cafe! Hmu? - XXX-XXX-XXXX" written.
His face goes beet red.
HOLY SHIT. She just gave me her number. Yoon Jeonghan, you need to act chill and nonchalant. And text her. Like right now.
He flashes you a nervous smile and a thumbs up as he speed walks out of the cafe.
FRIDAY, 6:00 P.M.
Jeonghan looks up from his phone, glancing around to see whether you're here or not. The clock ticks 7:00 p.m.
"Hey Jeonghan! I'm here!"
He turns around, and his breath hitches. You're dressed in a cute, casual look— some jeans and your favorite top, paired with your shoulder bag —but he thinks you're absolutely stunning.
You cock your head slightly to the side. "Is something wrong, Hannie?"
"Oh-uh, no! Not at all... You just look... really pretty..." he blurts out.
Oh my gosh, bro, you're not supposed to confess yet! Why can't you wait until the Ferris wheel...
Now you look like you've seen a ghost, your palms start to feel clammy, and your smile stiffens.
Oh my god. OH MY GOD? The man of my dreams is going to confess. to me. TODAY?
Without thinking any further, you bolt in the opposite direction. Jeonghan is utterly confused at this, because he thought he had a chance... but ultimately, he's worried why you would suddenly run off like that.
"YN? Where are you going?!" he shouts.
You're frantically running to the bathroom, texting the girls about what to do. At the same time, Jeonghan texts the boys, fearing the possibilities of what might be going on in your head.
You're back at your meeting place, and you spot Jeonghan —who looks distraught as hell— constantly glancing up and down from his phone until he spots you. He jumps up from the bench and immediately runs toward you.
"Are you okay? What happened? Are you feeling unwell? Or- Or were you trying to escape me? Did I do something wrong?"
"OH! NO! I just really badly, uhhh, had to use the bathroom! Y'know how girls are..."
"Oh, is today not a good time to hang out then? Or are you not feeling well? We could always- "
"No! I'll be fine, Jeonghan. Let's go to the boardwalk!"
As you both walk along the boardwalk, Jeonghan's pinky subtly intertwines with yours. Your heart jumps a little at the small gesture, and you're unaware that your cheeks have become rosier than your blush.
Trying to distract yourself, you look towards the sea and pier, the glittering lights of the Ferris wheel and various rides in front of you, people's joyful screams and cheers drowning out your thoughts until...
"Hey, let's go check out that seafood restaurant over there!" Jeonghan smiles at you with a cute, boyish grin.
His words snap you out of your trance, and you shyly agree, continuing to walk alongside him with interlocked pinkies.
Jeonghan starts thinking about how he's going to handle this confession. How is he going to convince you to date him? Do you even like him back? You probably don't, and he's probably just another eager regular at the cafe. But he is willing to take a chance with you, even though he's been lying his way to attract you.
ˋ°•*⁀➷.*♡
“Oh my god, these pastries look so cute! Should we get some?”
“Look at those balloons with the lights!”
“Let’s get some gelato!”
You’ve been pulling Jeonghan all over the boardwalk, stall-to-stall, vendor-to-vendor, exploring so many snacks and knick-knacks until your face lights up at the sight of the Ferris wheel.
“Jeonghan, let's go on the Ferris wheel!” Jeonghan stumbles as you start pulling him in that direction, and that’s when he decides he’ll confess to you on the ride. Little does he know, though…
ˋ°•*⁀➷.*♡
Once you’re settled in the Ferris wheel cart, you realize how little space there actually is between you and Jeonghan. You turn to look at him, and your cheeks heat up at the fact that his face is barely a foot away from yours. He looks deep into your eyes as you quickly look away, trying to figure out what you’re going to say. As you look back at him…
“I have something to tell you.”
“Can I tell you something?”
You both blurt out at the same time.
“Y-you go first, Jeonghan!” You tell him.
“Oh no, ladies first! You can start.”
“Okay… I want to confess. I like you. A lot. And I have for a while… I’ve been seeing you at the cafe for so long and around uni and thought you were really handsome and sweet, but I never got the courage to make any moves besides small talk until the day I gave you my phone number…”
Jeonghan’s eyes widen, and his smile falters.
“It’s okay if you don’t like me back! I just wanted to tell you how I felt!”
“NO- Not at all, actually. I’m just shocked because I was going to tell you the same thing just now. I’ve also really liked you for a while, with how cute you looked working as a barista and how sweet you always are to me when I’m at the cafe every day.”
Your words get caught in your throat. You knew he liked you back, but he actually liked you back, and now you’re wondering whether you should tell him that you knew. He takes your hand and gazes softly at your face, eyes flickering between your eyes and lips.
“...May I?”
You give him a tiny nod as he leans and softly presses his lips against yours in a chaste kiss.
After you pull away, you mumble something to Jeonghan.
“Huh? What’d you say?”
“I want to tell you a secret… And confess something else… But you have to promise me you won’t tell anyone about this!” You say shyly.
He holds up a pinky, waiting for you to interlock yours with his.
“I promise! Now what is it?”
“I know how to read minds. I’ve had this power since I was young, and today I kind of, sort of read yours by accident at the beginning of our date and found out that you liked me back.”
Jeonghan’s eyes pop out of their sockets, and his jaw drops to the floor.
He starts rambling. “WHAT?!? Wait- Is that why you ran away?? And does this mean you’ve been able to read my mind this whole time??? Do you even read your customers’ minds?”
You nod sheepishly as the boy next to you starts spiraling.
“Oh my god… WAIT- Does this also mean you’ve read my mind all those times I ordered ridiculous drinks at the cafe? I swear I was going to show you the real me… I just wanted to impress you first…”
“Yeah.. Don’t worry about it! I still appreciate the lengths you went for me! How did you even know I liked all those drinks?”
“Ehh… I just got a vibe from you, y’know!” He giggles, and he grabs your hand as the ride comes to a halt, and leads you out of the cart. And for the first time since this little crush started, you don't need to read his mind to know that this is real.

ot13 hcs; if they played the roblox game dress to impress !!
warnings: some of this might be a bit ooc, other than that it's just minghao being a fashion ICON - and some members yelling
! NOT PROOFREAD !
a/n - omg amelia's writing again 😱 and this time with a series !? 😱 i hope u guys like it teehee AND I FINALLY FINISHED WRITING THIS BC I GOT MOTIVATION started in january and posted in september smh
on the podium every. single. round.
minghao, jeonghan, joshua, seungkwan
u just KNOW minghao has the best outfits. most definitely #1 on the podium every single round, and the evil twins and kwan 100% would be trying to either beat minghao or at least get on the podium with him, and since they have some of the best fashion sense in svt, they'd def end up winning
decent outfits, but are so unlucky that they never land on the podium 😔
seungcheol, jun, mingyu, wonwoo
these guys get flustered at the time limit and get into a rush to make and outfit. eventually pulls through and gets a pretty good outfit done, but get beat by minghao every single round. poor mingyu even gets less stars from some just so they keep this man from winning, and if it werent for the members, he would most likely be up on the podium during rounds (save mingyu)
doesn't understand theme, or struggles to make outfits
hoshi, dokyeom, dino
these guys find it hard to be on theme or even come up with something for it, save them, they're so confused and stick to simple outfits with whatever clothes they can. "the theme is rococo", 'WHAT IS ROCOCO?' and they spend time by trying to search up whatever that is, then realise there's such little items and they need vip for big dresses and fancy items, still get a decent amount of points for doing their best
extra: hoshi puts on the tiger print in every single outfit of his
could do better, but doesn't try
woozi, vernon
they don't get competetive until you truly convince them they should get competetive, so they play with the members to have some fun and see who did best, but if they really do start getting competetive, i think the others would start worrying about their scores and outfits, these two DO have good fashion sense and time management
SPECIAL: copies minghao's outfit to try and win
jeonghan
he's svt's #1 opp, of course he's gonna cheat in every single game! even fashion famous, meaning, when he's feeling devious, he cheats off of the others' outfits, but not just any of the members, minghao's outfit specifically-- as part of hannie's plan to try and beat them all in every game 😧

!! not proofread btw !!
CHOI SEUNGCHEOL (S.COUPS)
hes so excited to bake a cake w his baby 🥺
but this man gets so pouty so easily
he'd prob drop an egg and get pouty or accidentally spill flour on the counter
but he'd try his best to be helpful yk
trying to follow the recipe as best he can
and if u even SIGH out of slight annoyance while trying to mix the batter
he WILL be taking the beater from u and doing it for u
would also do his best to give u a massage afterwards
he says he'll take them out of the oven for u bc he doesnt want u to feel the heat from it so he does it (while wearing mitts ofc)
and then he gets pouty bc its too hot
even tho he wanted to do it 💀
definitely pouty if the cake was deformed
would def help u clean up the mess
CUDDLES AFTER 🥺
JEON WONWOO
i am a firm believer of unhinged wonwoo with his s/o
like yes he'd follow the recipe
but what if he's in a silly goofy mood
would probably say he's an expert baker because he played cooking mama every day for two weeks 💀
prob says "f**k the recipe, i'll bake like cooking mama"
but still follows the recipe bc of you
maybe heart shaped cookies (like that one picture)*
gives u a kiss after bc the cookies were so good
KIM MINGYU
this man is a klutz but also an amazing chef??
most definitely the best baker in hhu
but not without almost breaking your stand mixer
or getting batter all over the counter and some splattering on the walls 😔
cracked an egg but when he went to put the yolk in another bowl for the recipe, it exploded
dw though, your desserts turned out fine
he was pouty abt the stand mixer almost breaking (BUT ITS FINE)
but thats nothing cuddles cant solve, isn't it?
CHWE HANSOL (VERNON)
its vernon.
there is a very low chance that the dessert will end up edible
why?
because he will most definitely forget to read the recipe measurements and it might end up so sweet that it'll give you a cavity within the first bite
or it could end up as him putting too much salt instead of sugar
reason being, the poor boy couldnt tell the difference bc he missed the jars labels 😭
it may not end up edible
but its the thought that counts, right?
at least he helped his beautiful s/o 🤩
A/N - FINALY DID THE HHU VER!! omg posting this in the daytime instead of the dead of night? im so proud of myself 🤭 a huge thank u to @kwantaro mahi <3 for helping me come with a few of the hcs, so ty mahi !!

YOON JEONGHAN
y'all know how hannie is a huge bit of a menace?
well it would get VERY messy, bc this man would def try and get some frosting on your nose or some flour on your cheeks and prob have a play fight with ingredients💀
but would be very helpful, and would remind you when you're about to put the wrong ingredients
like "oh no, babe you're not supposed to put the butter with the flour yet!"
he might build a lego set w/ you while the desserts bake in the oven
the entire time you two are giggling while baking
will shower you with kisses if and when the cupcakes (or whatever ygs baked) turn out good 🤭
HONG JISOO (JOSHUA)
he would be so excited when u asked him if he wanted to bake w/ u
he would be so careful with following the recipe, and he would def make amazing desserts <3
but, he is evil twin #2, so he's also a bit of a menace, but the most he'd do is put frosting or batter on your face 😭
if your arms hurt from using the beater/whisk, he'd gladly take over for you and give u massage later 🥺
y'all would DEFINITELY have the prettiest desserts, you two would use pretty frosting and sprinkles, or make cute frosting art on cookies
cuddles while things are the oven !! 🤭
prob one of the best bakers in the vcu
LEE JIHOON (WOOZI)
at first you wanted to surprise him, but you had the better idea that it'd be fun to spend time w/ him and get him away from the studio for a bit
you guys would try an easy recipe, just so none of you end up burning down the kitchen-
he would be reluctant, but he'd do it for you 🥺
offered to be your taste tester in the end
gives u a kiss if it turned out good (would still give you one bc he saw how hard you worked)
would be so happy inside though, that you wanted to spend time w/ him baking
LEE SEOKMIN (DOKYEOM/DK)
would be SO HAPPY to bake w/ u
but i feel like out of excitement he might accidentally pour in salt instead of sugar 😓
but its fine, its the process that was fun
cuddles while things are the oven !! #2
the desserts might not taste good, but at least you had fun and they look pretty !!
also showers you with kisses after because you guys worked so hard on them 🤭
BOO SEUNGKWAN
he would also follow the recipe exactly as it is, but if you almost mess up he will def side-eye you (dw he still loves u 🥰)
would try to make the dessert as beautiful as him /hj
2nd best baker in vcu
would probably also be one of the people to put flour on your face as a prank, but he'd find it so cute
KARAOKE WHILE THINGS ARE BAKING
it would be so cute, and funny because the oven would probably go off while he's in the middle of a high note or something and you two would just burst out into laughter
dessert would taste as good as it looks tho 😁
A/N - my first writing piece !! omg this took me a while but its done! maybe ooc in some parts? but anyways enjoy! and ty to aichi/mahi, @kwantaro bc w/o her i prob would not have made my writing blog and written these hcs! so ty <3

WEN JUNHUI
CAT COOKIES.
this man is a cat enthusiast, and a cat himself
so why WOULDN'T you guys bake cat cookies?
since u guys didn't have cookie cutters you guys cut the kitty shapes with a knife
they turn out a bit wonky though
as long as it tastes good, its fine 😁👍🏼
builds legos w/ you #2 (first mention in vcu ver.)
the amount of giggle fits you two would have while decorating them- omg
and while you're icing them, the tube of frosting pops and then u guys have a little goofy faced deformed kitty
jun would prob name it jerry before u guys ate it 💀
KWON SOONYOUNG (HOSHI)
if jun got kitty cookies hoshi would most definitely make tiger cupcakes with you
would even look up a tutorial on yt on how to make tiger print on the inside of the cupcake
which also turn out a bit weird, but hoshi still likes it
there would most likely be a mistake while its baking, because hoshi accidentally put 50 minutes instead of 20 minutes on the oven timer 😭😭
you guys are in the middle of watching madagascar while cuddling on the couch until you smell smoke coming from the oven, and then you both have that "oh shit" look on your faces
the cupcakes burnt to a crisp. and your house almost did too 🤧
but you guys are okay, it took a while for all the smoke to clear out tho
hoshi may or may not have stayed away from baking for a while after that though 😓
XU MINGHAO (THE8)
would probably try baking something more difficult like macarons
definitely the best baker in pfu
follows recipes exactly as is as well, and also corrects you before you accidentally put too much salt because you read the measurements wrong (def not speaking from experience of failed macarons 👀)
the softest, most delicious macarons made by him
imagine after they've settled and are ready to eat you guys have this cute little tea party-esq setup and the macarons to eat while drinking tea
he would be SO happy if u liked them, and would try to make them by himself to surprise you next time 💗
LEE CHAN (DINO)
would also be a decent baker
you guys tried baking a cake together for your anniversary and it turned out AMAZING
he most definitely made the decorations look beautiful
cuddles while its in the oven #3 (others mentioned in vcu ver)
movie night while you two devour that cake (i am a firm believer that chan is a highschool musical enthusiast, and would do a marathon w/ you)
forgets to tilt the bowl when using the beater/whisk, so flour and eggs get all over the kitchen 😭
everything ends up fine though
kisses at the end because you two spent so much time baking
A/N - PFU VER DONE !! i hope y'all enjoy this, and i decided to write it so soon because the idea of jun and cat cookies made me want to post this immediately
(please leave a like or any kind of note if you have read this list !!)
i write mostly headcanons and the occasional drabble/oneshot, and tend to separate them by the units.
everything is mostly fluff and all sfw, and sometimes i will write comfort headcanons
currently only writing for svt (if that wasn't clear)
i dont write any long works at the moment because i am not very confident in writing stories like those
i will NOT write any sort of smut, nsfw, triggering topics (things that are trauma related or anything abt the boys hurting the reader abt their illnesses and things like that.)
my requests are currently CLOSED.
which means i also have the right to delete a request that i believe i cannot write or am uncomfortable with writing.
