there's a reason jungwon always holds his study vlogs at the same cafe, and it's not just because of the good coffee.

the sound of the bell chimes as he walks through the door of the cafe, smells of coffee filling his nose.
"welcome!" a familiar voice calls from the counter. yang jungwon gives the friendly barista a nod before going straight to his usual booth seat next to the window.
he's taking a deep breath while setting down his backpack with his study materials and video equipment. the college freshman is placing his items in place, a common routine that comes naturally to him, when your welcoming voice calls out to him.
line break insurance stop failing me
"good afternoon, jungwon-ssi." he looks up and feels his ears becoming warmer. dressed in your uniform with the black short-sleeved button up, the brown ribbon adorning your collar, and the matching brown unisex apron skirt, you looked as stunning as usual to him. "your usual?" you ask with a tilt of your head.
"oh, yeah, uhm... the usual please," jungwon replies.
"coming right up!" you say with a bright smile before bowing and going back to the counter. as you walk back, the youtuber recalls the first time he had come into the cafe.
it was a cold winter morning. jungwon had an important midterm the next day, and jake hyung and heeseung hyung had invited him out to a cafe not so far from his dorm.
"hyung, i have a midterm tomorrow. i need to study," jungwon pouted through his scarf, his breath visibly seen as a puff breaking through the frigid air.
"and like i said, i'll help you study for it," jake chuckled.
"come on, jungwon, you need a break once in a while," heeseung pointed out as he started to open the door for the three of them.
"fine," the youngest replied with an eye roll. "but if i fail any of my midterms this week, it's on you two."
"yea, yea, it's on us, now let's get in. it's so cold!" jake complained. the door opened with a chime, and the three boys were welcomed by the fresh scent of coffee beans and pastries and the cafe's warm atmosphere.
and it's at that moment jungwon saw one of the cafe servers at the front counter. "welcome! please sit down wherever you want."
he didn't know what caught his eye first: your kind smile, your warm aura, the list could go on and on. the environmental science major didn't even realize he was still staring as he sat down with his friends until heeseung coughed and nudged him with a knowing smirk. "looks like taking a break wasn't so bad after all, huh?"
and ever since then, jungwon has been returning to this cafe whenever he could for the past four months or so, to the same spot and to see the same server.
a clinking of dishes being set down before him snaps him out of his reminiscing.
"here you go," you say to him with your best smile. "can i get you anything else?"
"oh no, no thank you," he replies.
your eyebrows visibly furrow a bit. "are you sure? you've usually started studying by now. is there something bothering you?"
jungwon swears he can hear his heartbeat going a mile a minute. "you've noticed?"
and if his heartbeat was going too fast for him, the moment your face beams with your perfect smile, it stops. "yea! you're one of my regulars, of course i do."
"really?"
"yup! so if there's anything i can do to help, let me know."
"then, will you join me on your break?" the sentence is out of his mouth and past his lips before he can even register that it is, and the moment he realizes what he said, jungwon rushes to take it back. "i am—"
"sure! i can do that," you reply. the look on his face must be so dumb, mouth agape and eyes wide like a fish out of water. you check your wristwatch and nod. "i'll be on my half in about 30 minutes, okay?"
he nods robotically, still in disbelief that his crush agreed to hang out with him. you just give him your wonderful smile before leaving to take care of other patrons and do your job.
again, the environmental science major is staring and has to shake his head to snap out of it and begin taking out his study materials. he notices that the mocha latte's frothy heart still sits unbothered as he whips out his camera and tripod. heart beating at the touching gesture, he reaches forward and takes a sip, filled with the warmth that never fails him.
after setting up his video equipment, jungwon studies diligently for the next 30 or so minutes, bopping his head every once and a while to the soft cafe jazz and taking the often sip of his beloved coffee. he's in the middle of reading a dreaded textbook when he hears a soft ahem above him.
it's you, hair untucked from the earlier hairstyle and apron skirt gone. you mouth to him if it's okay to sit down with the camera filming.
he makes a soft ah in realization and puts up his index finger, signaling to give him just a second. he's relieved to see you nod and wait patiently. picking up the camera and the tripod, he wants to wrap up quickly so that you can join him soon.
"bye everyone, hope your studying went well!" he signs off in a hushed whisper with a wave to the lens. jungwon turns off the camera and makes a motion to let you know he's done as he packs up his video equipment.
"it's so fun seeing you film here," you giggle quietly to yourself. "i watch your videos from time to time when i study here, so i think studying with you for real will be extra effective."
"y-you watch my videos?" jungwon was already shocked from all of this, so consider him frozen now. it's like all the beings above decided to look down upon him with lots of luck today, because he sure is being blessed with a little too much. in fact, the study vlogger almost feels like it's too good to be true, but he'll take his chances.
"i do, you're really entertaining and studious," you confess as you prepare your laptop for work.
"wow... thank you," he mumbles, hiding his embarrassed face behind the mug of coffee. as you start typing up whatever assignment you're working on, jungwon is back to reading his textbook. how productively and effectively he's studying though, well, it's a little hard when his crush is sitting right in front of him giving him heart palpitations.
in his mind, he decides that for every paragraph he reads, he'll let himself look at you and your pretty face. jungwon silently prays that you won't notice him using this actually very effective carrot-and-stick method way of studying, because he knows himself that it's rather creepy of him, but if he doesn't use what the beings above have given him in this way, it'll either be wasted or used too much.
"sorry, am i... distracting you?" you're speaking up, tucking a hair behind your ear.
jungwon stammers before he's able to come up with an excuse for being caught staring. "n-no! i just... i was just wondering what your major was! yeah... yeah! it's a little awkward knowing you know a bit about me, but i know close to nothing about you," he manages to cover up. the student mentally gives himself a pat on the back for that well-crafted responses and cheers.
"oh gosh, i'm sorry i made it awkward for you," you say, placing your hands to your cheeks to calm down the burning. jungwon had always thought you were pretty, but he's finding these new expressions from you so endearing. he can't help but want to see more. "so you mentioned my major, right?" he nods. "agricultural science."
in his head, he is screaming in the void. everyone decided that he's the favorite child today, huh? finding out that his crush has a similar major to his really is the whipped cream on his chocolate ice cream. "oh, our majors are pretty similar then."
"yeah," you nod cutely. "i hope we have a class together one of these days—we can be study buddies!"
okay, he takes it back. is this punishment? jungwon's no longer sure how much of this cuteness he can take before he explodes or something from it. "yea, me too. if you see me in a lecture hall, just sit down next to me." he hopes he played it off coolly with that statement.
"mhm, i'll take you up for that," you reply. "is there anything else you want to know?"
"hmm... favorite drink here?"
"ooh, that's tough," you mutter, pausing to think with a hand on your chin. "i guess it would have to be the cinnamon vanilla latte? it pairs well with our cinnamon rolls—you should try it sometime," you offer with a giggle.
the two of you continue like this, him asking the occasional question between some studying moments and you answering back while diligently typing up what he finds out is your essay for your psych ge.
the next thing you two know, your break is over. had it not been for your wristwatch's soft beeps, you probably wouldn't even have noticed with the comfortable setting you've created with jungwon.
"oh, look at that, my break's over," you comment, turning off the beeping and starting to pack your stuff.
maybe the beings above gave him this opportunity to test him, but now this opportunity is slowly slipping through the cracks of his fingers as you begin to get up from your seat, and the vlogger cannot let that happen. not after how long he's waited and not when this golden chance is right in front of him. "w-wait, y/n-ssi," he calls out.
you give a hum in response to show your acknowledgment.
"can i... take you out on a date sometime?" jungwon blurts out.
the blank look you give him makes him start to panic.
"erm..! i guess you're okay with studying, but it doesn't have to be, i mean—" he starts to ramble until he's cut off by your soft laughter.
"i would love to, jungwon."
"wait, really?"
'ugh, stupid!' he thinks to himself. 'don't ruin your jungone chance!' but luckily for him, the beings above are still shining their light on the college freshman known as yang jungwon.
"yea, i enjoyed your company, and i can't lie... i really like seeing you here," you sheepishly admit. your cheeks are red as you quickly grab one of his pens and a spare napkin on the table. "before my manager gets mad at me, here's my number. text me the details of our date, okay?"
with that, you're running back to your shift and running laps in his mind. as he saves your number in his phone, your name with a little heart next to it, he holds his fingers to his lips and feels himself unconsciously smile.
in the adrenaline rush, he decides to text his hyungs the news.

♞──────────────────────────♞
you finish off your last move with your arms wide open, your chest heaving up and down from lack of breath. smiling nevertheless, you know you absolutely love the feeling of getting your breath taken away after dancing because you know it meant you did your best. you walk towards the camera lens and peek at the comments through your open laptop.
"did you all enjoy that?" you ask breathlessly grinning. the flooding comments are filled with compliments from your cover of nct u's boss. however, one comment, in particular, caught your eye as others seemed to reply to it.
heeseung ✔ 2s ago
wow that was amazing do you wanna do a collab sometime? 😊
line break insurance you've failed me 5x already
your eyes widen as you let out a gasp. "is that the lee heeseung?" you accidentally say out loud. you wince at the realization of your mistake. the comments are both praising you for your success in getting noticed by the other top dancer on youtuber and relating to your remark.
heeseung ✔ 3s ago
haha yes it's me dm me if you want to hear more about it 🤍
"oh wow... this is really cool..." you state before blinking to get you out of your stupor. "well everyone, that's going to be all for y/n's motion of dance today! thank you so much for tuning in, love you!"
you wave goodbye for a few more moments and then shut off the broadcast, closing your laptop as soon as you do. you blink twice and suddenly let out a scream.
you stop with a gasp and cover your mouth with your hands because you cannot believe you forgot that your dance studio isn't the most soundproof of places. "sorry, other dance students..." you whisper to them but more for yourself.
taking a look around your escape, your passion, you can't believe you've made it to where you are, being praised as one of the top dancers on such a vast social media platform like youtube. if anything, you guess it runs in your family, after all, you are related to choi yeonjun, who is considered 4th gen's it boy.
though people were skeptical of you at first when you came on the youtube scene as a dancer after your older brother started taking more to modeling and acting, you quickly proved them wrong by showing them your talent and bloomed from then on. of course, you can't forget to mention the person who skyrocketed just around the same time as you.
and that was the aforementioned lee heeseung. you sigh as you finish packing up your clothes and things to head back to your dorm, glancing out the window to see the sun beginning to set. it seems today was a rare early finish for you.
"i could go for a coffee... i need to finish my classics essay anyway," you mumble to yourself, throwing your bag over your shoulder before hitting the showers and changing into a more casual set of clothes. the finishing touch is a baseball cap that sits snug on your head. tightening the strap on the back and grabbing your backpack and dance bag, you finally take your leave of your beloved dance studio and return the key on the way out. fresh air meets your face, allowing you to take a whiff of the cherry blossoms that have been blooming for a month or so as you make your way to the campus café.
ding ding, the coffee shop's calm doorbell welcomes you as your nose is hit by the sweet smells of freshly ground coffee beans. "welcome!" one of the servers calls at the counter, smiling at your figure that walks closer to order. "what can i get you?"
"hi, may i have..." you scan the menu quickly for a familiar drink. "a honey cinnamon iced latte please?"
"of course, name please?"
"choi y/n," you reply.
if they recognize you, they don't make any notion of it, simply scribbling your name on the plastic cup as you make your payment. you're grateful for the normal interaction and the peacefulness of the café, especially after a surprising stream. "i'll call you when your order's ready, choi y/n-ssi," they inform you with a warm grin.
"thank you," you smile back before going to find a seat. spotting a relatively private area close by with only a pair of boys sitting at the booth, you decide to take the booth two spaces away from them. one boy, you notice, sits taller than the other, but his face is covered by a baseball cap. the other looks like a freshman, his cheeks accentuated by a pair of deep dimples.
as you take your seat, you can't help but think the boy with dimples looks rather familiar but can't seem to place your finger on it. shrugging, you simply begin preparing to write your essay by taking out your laptop and notes from your classics ge. the moment you finish is when you hear your name being called.
"choi y/n-ssi, your honey cinnamon iced latte," the server's voice calls. on your way to receive your awaiting drink, you can finally hear the voices of the two boys sitting two booths down from you.
"did your crush just say choi y/n?" the one with the hat says.
'yes, that's me,' you think to yourself nonchalantly.
"weren't you just watching their stream, heeseung hyung?" another voice says as you pick up your latte and thank the server.
wait, heeseung? as in lee heeseung? it's when you turn around with your drink in hand that you notice the two males looking straight at you. now you're able to make out the features of the boy with the cap, and there's no mistaking it.
"lee heeseung?" you mutter out loud at the same time he speaks out yours.
well, maybe that wasn't what you were expecting today, but hey, life is full of surprises, even if they are one after the other for you. after that unexpected encounter, you and heeseung acquainted yourselves, he invited you to sit with them, and now you're sitting at their table, awkwardly sipping on your latte.
"right, so should i leave?" the other boy, who you found out is studytuber and vlogger yang jungwon (which is why he looked familiar to you), blurts out. you chuckle as heeseung shakes his shoulder lightly. "what? you two clearly have to talk about something, i need to study."
"yea, yea, lover boy. make sure you say bye to your crush on the way out," the male dancer teases, causing the younger one to turn bright red.
"don't call me that, hyung," he mutters before picking up his bag and leaving the booth. sure enough, you watch as jungwon passes by the counter and erupts into a nervous mess the moment the server beams at him.
"ah... so he likes them?" you think out loud.
"yup, it's been almost four months now. i'm the reason he even knows this cafe and that server exists," heeseung mentions, making you nod courteously. he turns his attention back to you with his hand placed under his chin. "but their relationship is besides the point. let's talk about us."
"d-did you have to put it that way?" the forwardness catches you off-guard, and you suddenly have a harder time swallowing a sip of your coffee.
"sorry," he says with a teasing smile. "i just think the collab i mentioned would be good for both of us, and it'll be really fun too."
"i agree, people who like you will come to me and vice versa," you nod. "but do you know what we would be dancing to?"
"so does that mean you're in?" he asks, smile starting to grow on his face. wordlessly, you roll your eyes and hold out your hand for him to shake. that's when his full smile comes out, causing your cheeks to heat up as you think about how much more handsome it makes him look. taking your hand, heeseung shakes it with his vigorously. "alright, dance partner, we have a deal."
after much deliberation and research, the two of you finally agree on troublemaker by the duo hyuna and hyunseung. heeseung suggested this song, stating that he always wanted to do the choreo with somebody and that it's destiny that both males have a name that starts with h and ends with seung. quite frankly, it's not like you could find much anyway, besides some cool music bank mc stages, it is cool that troublemaker was originally an opposite-gender duo in the korean entertainment industry.
the choreography however is an entirely different story. at many points, hyuna's body is touched by hyunseung and vice versa, but if they can do it and stay professional, then you believe you can too. besides, dancing will always be just dancing. heeseung also assures you that if you want, the two of you can just have your hands hovering, which makes you feel relieved to have an understanding partner.
hours pass by, and you and heeseung decide to meet at your usual dance studio daily after all your classes, which wasn't hard because he also frequented the same one.
"i still can't believe we attend the same university," you say aloud as the both of you pack up your laptops and supplies.
"i know right, you would think one of us would recognize the dance studio we go to 24/7, right?" he laughs. "although, i've seen you use a different one sometimes."
"do you really watch my covers and streams often?" you ask baffled. he and you wave the workers goodbye and make your way to the brisk evening air waiting outside as the staff sends you off.
"i do, is that so hard to believe?"
"a little," you reply sheepishly.
"well, let me walk you to your dorm and prove to you how much of a choi y/n stan i am," he boasts, and you let yourself laugh freely as you walk beside him to your destination.
it's strange, knowing a famous youtuber you watched also knew and followed you, but then again, you're not exactly nobody either. when heeseung drops you off, he admits that he actually lives a few floors above you and that you two can walk home together after each rehearsal. it's even stranger, knowing a famous youtuber literally has been on your campus, in the same dorm building as you, and this whole time, the two of you have both been clueless as to the other's existence as an ordinary college student.
speaking of which, he can't be a dance major, right? otherwise, you would've already seen him! these thoughts keep you tossing and turning to the point you don't register when you fell asleep. when you wake up, you feel as if you didn't get any sleep at all, but get up and ready nevertheless, going through another regular day as a dance major.
by the time your classes are over, you walk out of the studio yawning about to stop by your dorm to freshen up and maybe fit in a nap. you're holding a hand over your mouth mid-yawn when a voice starts talking to you.
"good thing i stopped by to get coffee." you open your eyes and close your mouth to see lee heeseung holding two cups of coffee. he's dressed in an oversized white shirt and grey sweatpants, a common dance practice outfit, so why is your heart skipping so many beats. "yo, choi y/n."
"heeseung," you say, still shocked. he hands you the coffee, which is actually the same flavor you got yesterday. "thanks."
"no problem," he replies coolly. "maybe we should take a break before we get to it?"
"i'll be fine, how about we can start watching the choreo?"
"they're always ready to dance," he nods with an impressed smile. "as expected of a dance major."
the two of you walk inside and book a studio for a few hours as you raise an eyebrow at him. "wait, what major are you?"
"music production."
"that makes so much sense!" you say relieved, stepping into the studio room for the umpteenth time. "i was racking my brains wondering what major you were."
"so the famous choi y/n is curious about me?" he smirks. you groan and facepalm in response. "i'm kidding, i'm kidding. let's watch the video on my tablet?"
nodding, the two of you watch carefully, eyes glued to the screen at your respective roles. you hold your breath at some touchy parts but also notice that both idols were able to shine in their solos.
"a few tweaks here and there, and it'll be perfect," heeseung comments once the video is over. "but let's go over some boundaries, yeah? let me know what you're comfortable with and what you're not."
"right," you agree, once again relieved to have such a safe and understanding partner like him. "well, i think i'm okay with you touching my arms, shoulders, and hips like hyunseung did to hyuna. i just need some time to get used to it."
"alright, that sounds good," he says nodding with a hand under his chin. "then for today, i'll just hover my hands over the places they need to be."
"what a gentleman," you tease.
he rolls his eyes playfully at you. "let's start marking."
and so that's what the two of you start on. with the video on the tablet, you go through the motions with the speed lowered, eventually picking up more moves until you're able to follow at the normal speed. as expected of the top two dancers on youtube, the two of you are quick on observing and learning the dance and get done with basic marking within 20 minutes or so.
after marking, you take a quick water break to watch the video again in full detail, officially beginning your first real practice. as promised, throughout the entirety of marking, heeseung has kept his hands to himself, but you've become comfortable enough to have him do a little more.
before you start practicing for real, you decide to speak with him. "hee," you call him as he puts down his water bottle.
"hm?" he confirms that you have his attention, looking up with his large doe-like eyes while wiping his mouth off from some excess water.
"uhm.." you fidget with your top a little before mustering up some courage. "you can do light touches now for the choreo."
"really? are you sure?" you nod at his question, causing him to come up to you and ruffle your hair lightly. you bat his hands away with a pout, smoothing out the mess he made as he laughs at you. "that's great, y/n," he says with a bright smile, unknowingly making your heart beat a little faster as you nod again. in your head, you rush to cover up the physical reaction with an excuse that it's just from the amount of exercise you've done.
the two of you stand in front of the mirror, ready to go. before the music starts, heeseung turns to you and says, "just let me know if i make you uncomfortable at all."
"i'll be fine," you reassure him with a small smile. that's when the song begins, and the sparks start to fly. every move flowed like water, yet every touch between the two of you was like electricity as if the two elements were working together instead of fighting. even though the touches are light, they still put chills up your spine, in a way that you can only describe with the phrase "meant to happen."
was fate moving its course to put this match together, or were you imagining it? you're not sure, but you grin while catching your breath once the first practice is over. falling to the floor softly, you sit with your hands splayed behind you and let out a relieved sigh. "ahh... dancing is so... great!"
heeseung chuckles at your reaction and offers a hand to get you up. "i'm glad you think that because we got a lot more practice ahead of us, partner."
"yup!" you say with a widening smile. the moment you took his hand, you felt an electric jolt that almost made you let go. getting up, you shake it off and barely catch the expression on your dance partner's face. "is something the matter?"
he blinks a bit before he's shaking his head with that charming smirk of his. "nope! let's practice!"
practice, practice, practice. that's how the next few hours go. and just like the day before, heeseung walks you to your dorm building, this time the conversation about how excited the two of you are for the recording.
that's basically how the next four or so days go, now that heeseung came into your life. your daily routine of wake up, eat, class, dance, repeat was shaken by him, because now he was a part of it. it's an indescribable feeling, hanging out with him. the best word, or phrase actually, is the same one you used while dancing with him: meant to be.
so when you finally get to the day of recording, you almost don't want it to end. at least, that's what you're telling your best friend and makeup artist, kim sunoo.
"friend, you're telling me that you and this guy have been following along to..." he tells you to look up as he curls your eyelashes. "a dance like that for four days and you've been getting shocks this whole time?"
"i mean, yeah?"
"y/n, i love you, but you're missing a little something, aren't you?"
"wha-!?"
"pucker up, sweetie, we're making your lips look kissable," sunoo commands. you do an eye-roll but do as he says. "if you don't ask him out or do something by the end of this, you can at least kiss your best shot at a boyfriend goodbye with luscious lips."
he finishes applying the color and asks you to rub your lips together and make that pop sound. "perfect," your best friend compliments. "go out there and get your mans."
"thank you, sunoo!" you say, gazing at your reflection in the mirror and loving the way he accentuated your features. "by the way, you're all talk. you should ask your celebrity crush out when they appear on your channel."
"i'll get there when i get there!" he whines and starts pushing you out of his dorm room. "just go get 'em, tiger."
with that, you make your way to the dance studio where heeseung is waiting for you, dressed in hyunseung's iconic suit with the leopard-patterned blazer. your heart quickens, seeing how much more handsome he looks dressed up, hair slicked back and some makeup done. he looks up upon hearing the door open and his mouth slightly hangs open as well.
the both of you are silent as you approach him, in your equally bedazzling outfit, sheer to mimic hyuna's stage dress. "you look amazing," the two of you say at the same time. stunned at the simultaneous sentence, you two immediately start guffawing at how this was unlike your usual interactions.
"that was so awkward!" you blurt out, unable to contain your laughter.
"yea, not like us at all," he admits while he wipes a stray tear from laughing too hard away. smiling at each other, you admire the way his eyes reflect your image and sparkle. "you ready to get this show on the road."
"ready as i'll ever be." the two of you get into your positions on the opposite ends of the room, and heeseung starts the camera and the music soon after. you take each step slowly to meet him in the middle as he takes your hand and brings it up to his lips to give it a kiss while smirking. you keep your face professional as the two of you take a few steps forward, the back of his fingers curled over the front of yours.
starting back-to-back, you walk forward a bit before the beat drops and heeseung's part begins. you're on autopilot as you dance your fingers from his chest to his shoulders, and then the chorus comes. hips swaying, you're able to feel his hands' light taps on your body as the two of you lose yourself to the music you've danced to hundreds of times this week.
then, it's your killing part as you lipsync hyuna's rap and take bold steps around heeseung's body, ending up behind him to bring your hands over his shoulders and make a scratching movement across his chest. you step towards his side, do your thing, and walk away as if playing hard to get.
you wait for his part during the bridge and make a side glance towards him before moving towards him and performing the hip-heavy part of the chorus together. your partner moves his face up along your arm, taking it in like you're a statue. you then act like you brush him away when heeseung gets close enough. after this second chorus, you're leaving him to do his big solo, watching carefully as he makes his every move precise and crisp yet flow well.
it's the last chorus now, and this time, you can't take your eyes off each other as you finally face one another. you stay drowning in his shades of brown without a single misstep until you have to walk away from him. you wait for him to come towards you, back slightly turned away as he jaunts forward, making his way to be captured by your hand behind his neck.
the last breath of the song is the one where you're supposed to turn your head away as his own chases yours, but this time, you brave forward and lean in close. the music fades away, but all you hear is his breathing, feeling it against your own.
you stay like this, ensnared in each other's arms, forgetting about everything except the person wrapped close to you as you feel his every breath against your lips and every inhale and exhale under your hand. he searches your eyes, looking for some kind of sign. "do you mind if i—"
that was all you needed before you're pressing your lips against his. it only takes seconds for him to kiss you back, moving his hands from their previous position on your hips to hold your face. becoming breathless from dancing was one thing, becoming breathless from kissing heeseung was another thing entirely, it was in a league of its own you note as you pull away and rest your forehead on his.
"we'll have to edit that out," you say after what seemed like ages of taking each other in while chuckling.
"i have a better idea than editing."
"oh, and what's that, handsome?"
"look at you getting all bold, troublemaker," heeseung replies with that smile of his. he shakes his head, moving away from you and taking your hand in his. "how about we go on our first official date as youtube's top dancer couple?"
"that does sound like a better idea," you agree, your own smile widening.
"then let's make it happen, sweetheart."

part of my youtuber enhypen series, the sixth upload! feel free to read by itself!
♞──────────────────────────♞
the instagram dm sits open on his phone, laying on the kitchen counter as the boy stares at it in complete shock. he reads it over and over again before it has finally registered in kim sunoo's head that the manager of his celebrity crush l/n y/n asked him to film a youtube video with them in it.
he lets out a high-pitched squeal that makes his roommate yang jungwon wince at the sound. "why are you trying to rupture my eardrums?" jungwon asks, rubbing his ears. "you forgot how thin our walls are too. our neighbors must hate us right now."
line break insurance though does this even work at this point :/
sunoo rolls his eyes at him. "you would be screaming too if your café worker crush said they liked you back." jungwon throws a pillow at the blonde from the couch, making sunoo scoff and give the younger a look of surprise. "yah!"
"sorry, your face was asking for it," the chocolate-haired boy replies. "so you're screaming because your crush texted you or something?"
"ignoring your first statement," sunoo says while throwing the pillow back. the other male catches it with ease that irks him a little. "close, my celebrity crush's manager just dm'ed me on instagram."
"your celebrity crush l/n y/n? the one they call variety shows' angel?" jungwon questions, getting up from his comfy spot to peer over the older's shoulder.
"the same one," sunoo answers with a lovesick sigh. in the midst of his roommate's daydreaming, jungwon scans the manager's message and snatches the phone from the counter, earning him an attempt to tackle him down from sunoo as his thumbs furiously tap the screen.
"sent!" jungwon exclaims, getting sunoo off his back and passing him his phone back.
"oh my god, what did you do?" sunoo gasps as he reads the message jungwon typed out for him.
"i agreed for you and asked what concept they wanted to do for a video. you're welcome," the environmental science major nonchalantly explains while packing up his backpack and heading out the door. "i'm out to get coffee with sunghoon hyung and jay hyung. want anything?"
"you are so lucky you wrote the right thing. otherwise i would've made you ask your crush for the most complicated coffee order ever," sunoo threatens lightly. "but no, i don't want anything. is sunghoon hyung having problems with his apartment neighbor again?"
"yeah, he is. it's kinda funny, plus you know i can't turn down free coffee from jay hyung."
"mhm, have a good time staring at your little café worker," sunoo teases, still staring at the unseen message. jungwon makes a backhanded comment that falls on deaf ears before finally leaving the dorm and locking it behind him. suddenly, three dots appear at the bottom of his phone screen, and the blonde blinks before panicking and swiping away from the conversation with a small yelp. his inbox makes the dm bold upon receiving another message from the manager.
all he sees is the first half of the sentence saying, "great! i'll let y/n know and—" aND WHAT? is what sunoo wants to scream, but he waits for a few minutes to seem more professional before opening up the full message that basically states that y/n will send him a text soon after he gives his phone number to discuss the details, but it's pretty much free range so long as it's within company guidelines.
the male quickly sends his number as his mind races ahead of his body, already thinking of so many ideas to do with the opportunity he's been given. he runs to his desk, practically slams a piece of paper onto it, and frantically starts making his writing hand catch up to his brain.
from a whole makeup look that suits their features to a skincare routine, sunoo's inspiration spark lasts for a whole five minutes before his phone vibrates. picking it up, his eyes widen from the unknown number with a message saying that it's them.
he smacks his cheeks a few times to make sure he's not dreaming as he reads over the notification once more.
623-2546 1m ago
hi is this sunoo? it's y/n! 🥰 my manager gave me your number so that we can talk about our collab~
after saving the number as an appropriate contact name and totally not "my angel y/n 😇" (because he's definitely a professional, right?), sunoo is quick to reply.
me 6:34pm
yes this is sunoo! hi y/n, i'm super excited to be working with you. did you have anything you really want to do? if not, i can share some of my ideas 💜
my angel y/n 😇 6:36pm
i was wondering if you wanted to do something on skincare? specifically a nighttime one since i'm having trouble making one on my own 😣
we can do some fun challenges too! you can leave it up to me to come up with those (ノ≧ڡ≦)
me 6:37pm
that sounds great! skincare was one of my ideas too ☺️ could you let me know your daytime routine so i can prepare some products for our video?
it really makes his heart flutter looking at the dots that appear, and he's simply over the moon that he's able to do something like this with someone as wonderful as l/n y/n. soon, they provide him with their morning skincare products and start setting up details for when they should meet down to what they should wear.
sunoo's gears are turning as fast as they were when he was told free range for video ideas. looking at his calendar, he sighs at the fact that the part-time youtuber, full-time student has a few midterms coming up and knows he would have to wait a little longer before he gets to meet l/n y/n in person. until that moment comes, for now, he informs them that they should wear matching pajama sets to go along with the nighttime theme and that he'll be free the weekend after this one.
when y/n agrees with some cute emojis, the blonde is already imagining how amazing their video together is going to be, texting them back and forth until jungwon finally gets back from the café.
"you're still on your phone, hyung?" the vlogger asks, peeking his head in sunoo's bedroom.
"yup, y/n and i are still working out some details, but just letting you know, they'll be here to record a video next, next saturday," sunoo informs him without looking up from his phone.
"i'll go sleepover at jay hyung's that day then so i don't have to see your simping," jungwon comments before going into his own room.
"you say that like i don't have to see yours every time we go to the café!" sunoo calls back, hearing a door close in reply. with a giddy sigh, he falls back onto his bed with his phone above his face, the screen reflecting their conversation full of thrilled anticipation. "whatever, let's just make this video the best," he says to himself with a love-struck smile.
the next few days have got to be the best days of sunoo's life, and that's because of l/n y/n. jungwon has a look of disgust on his face as his roommate practically prances into the dorm spreading flowers and sparkles everywhere. "you've been so happy these days it's not even contagious anymore, it's an overdose," says jungwon as sunoo grabs a snack from the cabinet. "shouldn't you know about this as a psych major?"
sunoo rolls his eyes at him. "you need to be treated for jealousy. it's a disease. sorry, you're not getting good morning and good luck texts from the love of your life!"
"you're not the one with a romantic date with the love of your life," jungwon boasts as the blonde drops his snack bag onto the counter in surprise.
"no way! you asked them out?"
"have a look-see," his brown-haired roommate gloats, showing off the lovey-dovey text messages between him and his crush.
"oh my gosh, no wonder you've been less of a pain lately," sunoo jokes, which earns him a playful shove from the other.
"you haven't even met your crush yet! let me see your messages," jungwon insists while peeking at his hyung's phone, which was indeed open to their conversation. "so close yet so far, hyung~"
"whatever, you'll see our chemistry when the video goes up!"
"that's if you don't get nervous, sunoo hyung." now jungwon had a point because as it stands, the day is now the fated saturday. sunoo has just gone through three brutal midterms, but nothing had prepared him for this. his roommate had left already, saying if he needed anything to call him, jay, or jay's s/o. that left him to clean up the dorm, which was easy, considering the two boys cleaned up after themselves, but what were y/n's standards? therefore, with that thought, the blonde is currently on a cleaning mission, making sure every spot of the dorm was dusted, wiped, and sprayed with an air freshener, scent picked by sunoo himself of course.
he was extra precautious of his bedroom where they were filming. putting up string lights, the boy was trying to make his room cuter than normal to impress his celebrity crush that he had been consistently talking to over text. looking at the apeach-themed alarm clock on his bedside table, he catches sight of the time and gasps. apparently, only thirty minutes and the love of his life l/n y/n would be appearing at his residence hall, and he wasn't even changed or had his face prepared. so sunoo is quick to get into the pajama set you two picked out, which is striped with pastel purple and one of y/n's favorite characters, koya. he's prepping his face along with the skincare routine items he has chosen for y/n, when his phone rings.
the contact picture is a silly selfie of y/n with a contact name he should probably change before they get here, but he makes sure to pick up with an excited hello.
"sunoo? i'm outside of your hall right now, i think? can you come get me please?" their sweet voice says over the phone.
"y-yeah, i'll be right there!" he confirms, cursing himself for the stutter before hanging up. "ah! ah! let me just place these nicely... okay, done!" he grabs his key card and rushes down the hall to the elevator, begging it to go faster in case his crush gets recognized and mauled by crazy fans. once he hears the ding of the elevator's arrival, he makes rapid strides to open the door. holding it open, he finds himself met with an angel itself.
dressed in one of his favorite characters (they thought it would be cute to swap), y/n's pajamas are striped pastel pink with different expressions of apeach with both an apeach face mask covering the lower part of their face and eye mask on top of their head. upon seeing sunoo, the person smiles through their mask and waves excitedly while running towards him. "sunoo! hi! it's nice to finally meet you in person."
"y/n! hey, hi, it's nice to meet you too," sunoo greets as the celebrity walks in unrecognized. it's probably the filled tote bag that catches people's attention more, or you know, the fact that they're dressed in pajamas at 5 in the afternoon. "let's go up to my dorm, yea?" y/n nods and follows sunoo into the elevator, humming a little song from one of the many variety shows they've appeared on. "oh, i recognize that song!" sunoo says to break the ice.
"really?" y/n replies with a surprised face as the elevator arrives to sunoo's floor.
"yeah, that's the one where you went on the kids' coaster and claimed you were president," sunoo answers while leaving the lift.
"ah! that episode was so embarrassing for me," y/n laughs, following suit as they walk down the hall. "i screamed louder than all the little kids..."
"at least you faced your fears and rode the main attraction," the blonde compliments as he opens the door for them. "come on in, my roommate is staying at our friend's place, so we're pretty much good for filming."
"thank you~" the celebrity says, exchanging their shoes for the spare slippers sunoo had lain out for them. "your place looks so comfy!"
"really? thank you," sunoo replies sheepishly while rubbing the back of his neck. he closes the door and goes over to his bedroom. "we'll be filming in my room. you can put your stuff down anywhere!"
nodding, y/n does as he says and makes themselves comfortable by taking off their face mask as sunoo sets up the camera equipment with ease. "it's so cool to be doing this with you. i've been a fan of you for a while now," they suddenly tell him. he almost lets go of the ring light stand if not for some lucky reflexes he didn't know that he had. "i annoyed my management a lot to collab with you."
"i'm so glad that you did, and i'm really thankful to have someone like you as one of my fans," sunoo genuinely answers, finishing up the setup. "let's continue to support each other even after this collab, okay?"
"pinky promise!" y/n replies happily and grabs sunoo's pinky with theirs, shaking it cutely as the boy smiles with delight. "alright, you have the floor now, sunoo-ah."
"right," he says with their full trust. they both turn towards the camera, and sunoo hits the button. "hi hello, everyone! as you can see today, i have a very special guest with me today."
he points to y/n, and they take it away. "hello hi! i'm l/n y/n!"
"that's right, i have variety shows' angel with me! i'll be talking in detail about a nighttime skincare routine specific to y/n, but feel free to take and choose what suits you," sunoo explains. then he goes off and does his job, taking care to inform both y/n and his audience of the products he chose for her, their ingredients, and their significance. from a cleansing gel to a retinol serum, he's got it down perfectly all the while impressing his crush (so he hopes) and earning a bunch of nods, praises, and a few questions here and there.
when he's done, sunoo passes it off to y/n who expertly starts their segment. "wow, that was super informative. thank you, sunoo. i can't wait to take these products home!" y/n thanks before getting back into it. "now, with me as a special guest, i couldn't come here empty handed so i've prepared a few challenges!"
grabbing their tote bag, y/n reaches for a koya eyemask that they hand to sunoo. "i heard you're really good at guessing snacks, so i'll be testing you right now!" he puts on the character mask and is of course met with darkness. the celebrity waves their hand in front of his face. "you can't see anything, right?"
"not a thing!"
"okay, first snack coming up then!~" y/n replies chuckling to themselves. they reach for a bag of chips from their tote and show off the lime and chili flavor to the camera before using chopsticks to grab a chip. "open up, ddeonu-ah."
ignoring the heat rushing to his face at the endearing name, the youtuber does as he's told and is met with a sour and spicy flavor. "mm.. this is? lime and... chili?"
"yup! wow, you really are good at this," y/n compliments. the game goes on with sunoo guessing a warheads flavor and even getting a surprise herbal drink right, so they move on to the next game. "alright, this one may be a little boring, but i wanted to try something, so bear with me, okay?" sunoo nods in response as he pulls up his eyemask, curious as to what the other person has planned for them. "staring contest! whoever laughs or blinks first loses!"
"h-huh? okay, okay," sunoo replies, trying to calm down his nerves as he turns to face y/n whose eyes are closed in preparation, and does the same.
"ready... and start!" y/n says as they open their eyes to stare into sunoo's. y/n's eyes flicker kkamppagineun geu sungan between his eyes as if looking for something while his own try to look anywhere but their eyes in attempt to cool down the consistent heat on his ears. "you know, your eyes are really pretty..." they blurt out, gaining sunoo's attention. he finally locks eyes with them to see his eyes reflecting in theirs. but then he blinks. "oh! you blinked! i win!"
"ah yea, congrats!" sunoo quickly covers up his confusion for the camera, clapping with the person next to him.
"that's all for the challenges i prepared for us. thank you for showing me a nighttime skincare routine, sunoo," y/n says.
"the pleasure's mine," he replies with a genuine smile. simultaneously, they both turn to the camera and greet the audience goodbye before sunoo is turning off the camera and clapping once more. "good job, that was really fun!"
"mhm, thank you, sunoo. i really enjoyed myself," y/n thanks, brushing a strand of hair back and standing up from the bed. they place the challenge snacks from earlier on his desk like they're a parting away present. "eat these, okay? i don't have much else to offer at the moment compared to a whole skincare routine. i'll see myself out."
"at least let me go with you on the elevator," sunoo rushes to follow along, grabbing his keycard in a hurry. y/n just gives him a smile fit for an angel (which they technically were) and says nothing as sunoo follows behind them to the elevator.
the elevator ride down is silent as if the both of them aren't acknowledging the fact that their time together is almost over. it's too quick. when sunoo had come down earlier to pick y/n up, it was too slow, but now, it was too fast. funny how when you're anticipating something good to happen, it's slow, but when you don't want time to stop, it somehow goes by faster. that's how sunoo feels when the elevator rings to signal their arrival and opens up, the two people wordlessly stepping out.
y/n turns around with a pout but grins through it nonetheless. "well, i guess this is it. don't forget our promise, okay?"
"y/n, wait!" sunoo isn't letting the opportunity slip from his fingers as somehow jungwon's annoying nagging echoes in his head. "let's have a movie night sometime? without filming anything, you know?"
"i'd like that a lot," y/n says. it happens quickly, but he swears he felt a pair of lips grace his cheek before y/n is skipping off to the chauffeur waiting for them outside. "see you next time, sunoo! call me soon!"
sunoo waves goodbye mindlessly at the black car driving off and places his hand on his cheek. butterflies erupt in his stomach as soon as he gets back in the elevator and the doors close. "yes!!" he yells with a hop, making the elevator shake and surprising him. he could care less though, because he's actually getting somewhere with the angel of variety shows, his celebrity crush, and all thanks to his job, a collab, and some nagging from an equally lovesick roommate and a certain obliviously lovesick dancer.
turns out that love is a little like skincare: with some of the right ingredients, patience, and persistence, you'll start to see the results you want soon enough.
bonus!
a/n: i'm emotionally attached to vlogger!jungwon, which is why he makes another appearance annie ways if you caught the chuu can do it reference i love her she's so wholesome 🥺 second-to-last upload for this one-shot series waaah </3 i hope you all will be here for sunghoon's coming in 2 weeks!

"hi everyone, we are jay!" jay starts you two off.
"and y/i!" you finish, clapping your hands as jay smiles at you fondly. "so as you probably guessed from the title, we're testing jay's love for honey."
"yea, if you guys are new to this channel, i eat it whenever i'm stressed," he explains.
"he does it straight too!" you exclaim. "when i first saw it, i was literally the eye, lip, eye emoji face."
let's try again line break insurance ;;w;; thank you to the anon who told me!
"if you don't know, riki is part of our friend group, his channel's called muramurariki where he does pranks and mukbangs where he heats stuff up. y/n finds it disgusting," jay explains again.
"yah! because it is! you put yogurt in the fridge to preserve it and it's a cool summer treat! this is an offense to yogurtland," y/n shouts. "and fruits are best cold!" your boyfriend playfully pushes you as you roll your eyes and settle down.
"anyways, y/n has some honey products prepared for me, and we're going to see if i will actually like them," jay segways.
"yup, so it's time to close your eyes, jay!" you say and reach for the angry bird blindfold given to you by one of your subscribers to put it over jay's eyes.
testing his sight, you wave a hand over it multiple times. "you can't see, right, seongie?"
"nope!" he affirms with a thumbs up. smiling, you hurry to grab your first product, pretty tame compared to the next two. scrambling back with the tub of ice cream, you show the camera with a hand behind the product so that it can focus on the label. it's buttermilk honey flavor ice cream. you're sure it's great, nothing can go wrong with ice cream for the most part.
carefully, you make a large scoop and place it into the bowl. the milky white ice cream almost looks like vanilla if it weren't for the few chunks and swirls of honey here and there. you grab a spoonful and have it ready for jay to taste.
"okay, jay, open your mouth," you order. he complies immediately, and you place the spoon in his mouth.
as soon as the ice cream hits his tongue, his reactions start. "oh! mmm..! this is really good! honey-flavored ice cream?" it causes you to erupt in giggles as you place another spoonful in his mouth.
"close!" you say and then proceed to correct him. "it's buttermilk honey ice cream."
"well, it has my seal of approval. could use more honey on top though," jay comments. you scoff slightly, shake your head, and roll your eyes at him. "hey, i can hear you rolling your eyes at me!"
"oops~" you tease, running away to grab your next product. as you come back and show the bag of honey-flavored cheese puffs to the future audience, it's hard to mask the sound of the plastic bag crinkling, so jay is naturally curious.
"a bag of chips? honey-flavored?" jay guesses.
"kinda! just wait and find out," you tell him. seeing his lonely pout makes you want to kiss it so you reach forward and follow your instincts, giving him a short and sweet one.
"hmm... very sweet," he plays along when you go back to reach for the actual snack.
"yea, yea, we'll edit that out later. open your mouth, babe."
again, he easily complies to your request, and you pop a single puff into his mouth.
"yooo... what?" you just know his eyebrows are raising in surprise under the blindfold. "this is strange, cheese and honey? honey cheese puffs?"
"ding ding!" you congratulate. "your review?"
"hmm... i liked the ice cream better, but this isn't too bad for a weird combo," he critiques. "i swear you've given me worse, baby."
you stifle your giggles, knowing fully well how bad the last product tastes. for new year's, your mom had sent you a jar of manuca honey. she had told you that it was good for your health and that you should try it, and like the good child you are, you obliged: only to find the most bitter honey ever with the texture of wet sand. the manuca honey was actually the whole reason you suggested the video to jay, and lo and behold, here you are filming it. you hid it from jay with much difficulty, and finally you're here.
"are you ready for the last one, seongie?" you ask him.
"give me your worst."
"well, you asked for it. hang tight." and with that, you went off to grab the awaited jar. showing it off to the camera, you wrote a note saying, "this is really bad!" to let your viewers know what was going to come. a spoonful of the gross honey is made and brought close to jay but not close enough for him to smell. "alright, bubs, last one! open up."
for the last time, jay opens his mouth to receive a bitter taste from the spoon you deliver him. his eyes widen upon contact, and he practically rips off his blindfold in shock at the grossness while you fall to the floor laughing. "yah! are you trying to kill me?!" he sticks out his tongue, face scrunching in disgust. "bleh, bleh!"
from the floor, your laughter is not ceasing, but you hand him a water bottle you prepared. he gives a quick thanks before chugging the whole thing and gasping for breath.
"oh my god, what was that?"
"m-manuca honey!" you explain, trying to contain your laughter. "my mom gave it to me, and i thought of doing this video to see your reaction."
"is this the vegemite of honey or something? ugh, disgusting!" jay complains. he reaches for the pint of ice cream and starts eating it straight from the container.
you wipe your tears of laughter while you stand up and join him on the couch. "hey, what if jake likes vegemite? you should apologize to all the people that like it."
jay bows and gives a quick sorry. "sorry, vegemite lovers!"
"okay, everyone! as you can see, jay doesn't like all honey products: there are clearly some exceptions," you say to the camera, jumping back to youtuber mode.
"can we throw that jar away?" jay asks immediately, which makes you burst into laughter again. "y/n babe, this isn't a joke."
"yea, i'm sure my mom wouldn't want you hating her for sending us that," you agree.
"thank you but no thank you, mrs. l/n!" jay shouts to the camera with a hand going straight down and then bowing.
"i think jay's ranking is clear, so let us know what you think about this video! i had lots of fun," you say. jay rolls his eyes at your comment as you wrap your arms around him.
"you had lots of fun!" he fights but laughs it off to do your outro together.
"until next time!" the two of you say to the camera. "this has been jay!"
"and y/i! thank you for watching!" waving goodbye to the viewers, you don't notice jay reaching for your cheeks to pinch them. you chuckle at his antics and playfully and lightly slap his hands away trying to pinch his in retaliation.
finally you get up to turn off the camera, and as soon as you turn it off, you spot jay continuing the honey ice cream from earlier, eyes closed in bliss of the sweetness.
"do you want some manuca honey on top, babe?" you tease.
he whines at your comment. "oh please no."
a/n: inspired by the manuca honey jar sitting in my pantry that my mom alone eats and jay's i-land moment he's so cute dbsjfnsifja i loosely based this on one of my favorite youtube couples, slice and rice :3c i just love their dynamic and their relationship <

you didn't think your favorite physics youtuber would be filming a lecture at your university.
genre: fluff
wc: 1.7k
warnings: physics (probably incorrect too 🤡), a bit of cursing
a/n: all my homies and i hate the line-break glitch 😡😡 but i still hope you all enjoy jake as a physics lecturer hehehe~ he's so polite here too no soccer chad energy 😳
part of my youtuber enhypen series, the third upload! feel free to read by itself~
♞──────────────────────────♞
"oh my gosh, he's so young and cute!"
"should i ask for his number?"
"but wait, what if he just talks about physics?"
these are the whispers you hear as you're about to walk into your physics lecture. pondering what kind of person would make university students want their number but still be into physics, your mind thinks of the physics youtuber you always watch in your spare time.
you shake your head and chuckle to yourself in disbelief. 'no, it can't be,' you think. oh, but apparently, it can be. because as you pull open the heavy door to your lecture hall named after some old guy who did something extraordinarily science-related for the school, you catch a glimpse of a familiar mop of brown hair.
line break - ignore this, it's so the glitch doesn't take this next paragraph away :')
however many times you blinked your eyes, you couldn't deny that it was him, jake sim, or as he was known on youtube, physjaeyun or even ta jake for fun, but you knew him as your favorite physics youtuber. late nights of physics often included him clearly explaining all the concepts and problems to you, helping you a great deal with your homework and even helping you ace some tests.
"sorry, can i sit there?" you don't realize you were blocking the aisle on your left until your fellow classmate politely asked you.
"oh, sorry!" you say to them, moving out of their way and rushing to the second front row. as you sit down, your eyes waver to the australian youtuber nearby and then to the camera that is several rows behind yours.
"is he... filming a video for his channel?" you mutter to yourself.
"i am." you whip your head back towards the front and clutch your hand to your chest in attempt to calm down the rapid beating. he chuckles at the sight of your expression as if you were a deer caught in the headlights. "i'm looking forward to teaching you today."
"i-i'm looking forward to learning more from you today," you manage to admit.
his smile is bright and warm like it was emitting rays of sunshine itself. "you watch my videos?"
you gulp the excited anxiousness caused by his smile away. "yeah, i do. they help me out a lot, i'm actually an electrical engineering major," you manage to say without stuttering.
"really?" he grins as he watches you nod. "you'll really like this lesson then."
your eyebrows furrow as you tilt your head to the side in confusion, but he just walks away with a mischievous boyish smirk. you shake your head to snap out of the daze and quickly take out your notetaking supplies.
'wait, did i just talk to him?' your mind suddenly realizes, and your jaw can't help but to go slack. 'oh shit, i did!?!!;$&/!?/$&'
your mind is racing full of thoughts and exclamations unable to form cohesive nor full sentences, so when sim jake's voice booms throughout the lecture hall, you almost drop your writing utensil as you scramble to catch it. luckily, you're able to hold it in your hand tightly, letting out a breath of relief as you tune into the youtuber's first live lecture. "... some of you may know me," a wink is directed towards you, which makes you look left and right to see if he was looking at anyone else and he wasn't. "some of you may not, but that's alright, because i'm still teaching your lesson today and it'll be uploaded on youtube in case you end up not being able to keep up."
he goes over to the first large whiteboard and writes the topic of today's lesson before reading it out loud. "circuits," he announces, "are essentially paths in which electricity can flow."
his voice booms throughout the lecture hall, aided by the microphone he wears on his collar, no doubt providing clear audio for the video as well. it is able to pick up the squeaking of the marker against the board as he draws straight lines representing what you decipher as a battery, wire, and a capacitor, all on the same line starting from the battery and ending at the battery.
'ah, circuits. that's why he said i would like this lesson,' you think as you copy the diagrams and write a few notes as to what the components are while jake continues lecturing with his smooth voice.
"any questions so far?" he asks, glancing around the lecture hall. "no? great."
after more notes on lectures on the different types of circuits, the young lecturer begins covering how to calculate resistance, current, and the like using an example. to you, these calculations are nothing new―rather, this is the basics of your whole major.
"well, if there are no further questions, let's have you all go through an example by yourselves. first one to come up to me with all the correct answers gets a prize from me at the end of class," jake announces. at the sound of an incentive, the whole class including you kick it into gear. immediately pulling out your scientific calculator, you're off to work analyzing the combination circuit of resistors jake had set up for your class as he paces back and forth in front with a notable smirk.
your writing utensil definitely feels the pressure as you hold it tightly, not letting it slip as you carefully write out each calculation, each resistance, and each current in neat lines next to the diagram. when you finish double-checking your work, you let out a deep breath of relief and look around to see everyone still working.
"can i see what you have?" a voice calls to you. it's like deja vu: your head turning to see the familiar face you admired many times during long nights of difficult physics problems and concepts just as you did at the start of lecture. with a blank and dazed look on your face, you can't help but to stare and blink as you hand over your completed exercise.
the youtuber looks it over silently, your heart beating a mile a minute, waiting in anticipation for his thoughts. then, a smile breaks out on his face. "congrats, you're the first one with the correct answers! record timing too, i might add."
"really?" you gasp aloud, causing him to chuckle.
"i'll see you after lecture, mx...?"
"y/n, y/n l/n."
"mx. y/n," he says with a grin before turning away to the front of the lecture hall to announce the end. "it appears we have our winner!"
some groans are heard, making jake chuckle into his mic. "if you couldn't get the answers, your professor will upload up to their website accordingly. i hope you all enjoyed today's lesson, and have a good day!"
as class has ended, there are those who had packed up quickly and already on their feet to get to their next class or just to get out, those that linger behind to wait for their friends or finish packing, and then there's you, packing up slowly only to sheepishly sit in your seat to wait for the rest of your classmates to leave.
once it's mostly clear, you move towards the youtuber who's waiting for you at the professor's usual desk. "i just wanna say..." you start, volume just barely above a whisper before plucking up your courage by speeding up, "thatyouremyfavoritephysicsyoutuberandthankyousosomuchfor—"
"whoa, whoa, slow down there, mx. y/n," he says, immediately standing up from the desk and putting his hands on your shoulders. "take a deep breath before telling me what you wanna say."
"uhm... i just... wanted to say that you're my favorite physics youtuber and..." you trail off, cheeks burning. the sight of him nodding with a grin encourages you to keep going. he whispers an "and?" to you. "and... i really appreciate your videos, so a reward really isn't necessary, your videos and you being here is enough."
"wow, i can't believe you're a longtime student of mine! i'm glad i came here then and got to meet you," he beams. "which means that i really have to give you a reward. how does coffee sound?"
blinking, your heart is lucky to have your mind working for you, because it manages to make you say yes. your eyes behold every detail of the show stopping smile he gives you while the two of you head quickly to a nearby cafe one of his friends recommended.
upon arrival, your nose is filled with the scent of coffee beans and crisp pastries. you let out a happy exhale, which jake finds endearing. he asks you for your order, to which you oblige, before telling you to find a seat. you nod and choose a bar seat that has a wonderful view of the ocean that your campus area has been blessed with.
you're busy wondering how lucky you are to have had physics at such a time that jake sim would teach a lecture for your class and to have been fast enough to finish a detailed problem, when jake returns with two cups of coffee.
he puts one cup in front of you but doesn't take a seat. noticing his frown, you tilt your head to the side to indicate your confusion.
"i apologize, mx. y/n, i would love to stay longer and chat with you, but it looks like my friend jungwon needs me for an emergency," jake melancholically explains.
you frown but shake your head. "it's no problem, mr. sim—"
"jake, please call me jake," he insists.
"j-jake," you stutter, testing the waters. he nods with the same golden retriever energy you're often fond of in videos. "you go ahead, thank you for the coffee."
"i hope to see you around soon or often, mx. y/n," jake says with a winks. he rushes out of the cafe while muttering to himself about how his friend better be in an actual emergency. you chuckle to yourself and pick up the coffee he had bought for you.
swirling the contents, you're about to bring the warm liquid to your lips when you notice writing on the paper sleeve. intrigued, you decide to slip it off and read it, the short letter giving you butterflies.
mx. y/n, i hope it's not too forward to want to call you just y/n and ask you out on a date. call me? xxx-xxx-xxxx jake sim

♞──────────────────────────♞
"y/n! i'm warning you, i'm going live!" riki shouts from the living room.
"alright! i'll stay here, let me know when you're done!" his s/o replies in the same volume.
"okay!"
this was a frequent occurrence: you come over to riki's place, the two of you hang out, he needs to film something for an hour or so, you give him space, he finishes, and the two of you cuddle after. while some of your friends question your boyfriend and your lifestyle with him, you really wouldn't have it any other way. 2 and a half years of dating riki, you've been through it all together, so there's no push for a something different or more.
"okay... let's wait for a while, yeah?" riki directs to his audience, watching the chat feed slowly increase in comments. when it seems like enough people have shown up, a smile breaks out on his face. "hey everyone, it's me again!
"you probably already read the title, but yea, imma do it." he points the camera down to the array of strawberry items that will soon be put in the microwave. "i don't know how people eat cold strawberries—they have no flavor to them!"
you scoff to yourself when he says that, shaking the digital trees on your island for fruits to sell.
"try one to see if you like it?" riki reads out loud. "eyyy, if i don't like it, i don't, but i'll prove it to you anyway if there's anyone new watching."
true to his word, the cold strawberry goes right into his mouth, and he makes a face, the camera picking it up. you don't need to watch the live to know that your boyfriend's nose is all scrunched up right now, making you giggle at the thought of it in the next room.
"now that you know," he continues, holding up a plate of strawberries. "i'll be microwaving these now."
the microwave opens and shuts before making its beeping noises as riki presses the numbers and heats them up for a couple of seconds. when they're ready, he's quick to get them out and show them to the camera before enjoying the taste of the warm strawberries.
"mm!" you roll your eyes at the sound of his satisfaction. his dog bisco has made its way into the room and plops next to your side, you gladly petting the curly fur at some points.
after a couple minutes, it seems riki has finished the warm strawberries, because he's moving onto the next item: tanghulu-style strawberries.
"you all said that you wanted me to eat this, and since it's already—" he takes this moment to tap the crystal sugary shell. "like this, i guess i'll just dive right in."
the sounds of delightful crunching can be heard, not unnoticed by bisco, whose head tilts at the eating sounds. you chuckle lightly, scratching its head and making the dog lay its head back down.
"ohh, i know why you all wanted me to eat this," riki acknowledges. "it's like asmr, okay, okay."
he lowers his voice and starts speaking like the asmr videos he's seen with you. "i think i'll microwave it just to taste," he whispers into the mic.
with that, the same microwave sounds of beeps and doors are repeated. "oh shoot, the sugar is making it stick to the plate," riki comments with a laugh, making you snort quietly. "i'll just..." he trails off, using a fork to free the sugary treat from the plate before plopping it into its mouth.
"oh! i like this better too! sorry, no crunching sounds for you," he laughs at the disappointed comments who wanted to hear the satisfying crunch of the tanghulu. "alright, next up... strawberry jam!"
instead of the usual glass jar it resides in, riki lifts up several small packages taken from food places as condiments. "i didn't wanna buy a whole jar—the tanghulu was expensive for no reason! plus, these are free, what can go wrong with free things?" a lot, apparently.
as by routine, he lifts up the wrap of the packaging and punches the back of it to immediately taste the jam. "hmm... it's alright, i guess."
riki lifts his head to read a comment. "huh? what's wrong with taking it straight like that? you know, jay hyung does worse, right?"
you giggle to yourself at the mention of one of his youtuber hyungs as you continue multitasking and listening.
"oh yeah, that reminds me. he did a video with his s/o, it was soo funny!" the youtuber laughs. "poor hyung, he said the manuca honey was so bad, he didn't want to eat honey for a week! go check out his channel after this and watch the video.~
"well, jay hyung needs to thank me for his free promo or whatever. it's time to microwave this noww," riki continues. it's going like normal: the microwave door opening and closing, the beeps of setting the time. but then it isn't. after a couple of seconds of heating, some loud pops are heard, and riki is shouting and laughing at the same time.
you and bisco shoot up and immediately rush to the scene. "riki! what is going on?!"
he turns around with a sheepish smile just as the microwave beeps to signal its end. pointing at the microwave, you notice the stains of strawberry jam on the door and groan out. you walk towards the kitchen and open one of the cabinets to take out the cleaning supplies, failing to notice that you had walked in front of the camera.
the comments go crazy with questions, and riki realizes he hadn't turned off his live, connecting the dots. he's quick to pull you into the frame with a beaming smile on his face. "well, this isn't the best way to go about it, but since you accidentally revealed yourself, i guess i'll say it: this is my s/o y/n, everyone!"
you blink owlishly, clutching the clorox wipes close to your chest with riki's arm around your shoulder. "huh?" you ask before the lightbulb in your head goes off. "ohhh! oh my gosh, hi?!"
you and riki had talked about the subject of your reveal before, but the how was always the reason you had never done it. with the accident, you guess this was the how now. you're laughing with riki at the whole situation as the comments flood with how cute the two of you are together. "riki! we need to clean the microwave before your parents come back," you playfully scold.
"oh right," he agrees before turning back to the camera. "well, two-in-one, everyone: strawberry mukbang goes wrong and my s/o revealed! see you next time!"
the two of you wave to the camera as the audience wishes you farewell and riki finally shuts off the live.
"you're a mess," you tease him, getting an eye roll in response.
"yeah, yeah, let's just clean up, okay?"
"how does this even happen? what physics is this?" you wonder aloud, opening the microwave to start cleaning.
"huh, maybe i have jake hyung's next idea for a video."
a/n: i wrote this in 20 minutes how 😀 i hope you all enjoyed this it's been a while since i wrote for riki hehe but i still judge him for warm strawberries LOL
