annie’s note: dedicated to my precious @ayukas on her special day >< thank you for being my first closest mutual on this app.. the haechan to my mark, the sohee to my anton. i love you so so so so so much !! i’m so glad we crossed paths and that we have grown so much closer with one another.. i hope you have the best day beautiful and pls enjoy what ive mustered up for you (i’ve came out of hiatus for this one). also let’s just pretend his album came out on your birthday OKAY? OKAY. i had a vision.
FULLSUN 🧸 : hey.. don’t fall asleep just yet, it’s nearly midnight. we have something important to do.
hey.
yn??
you groan as you flip your phone upright onto its back once again, seeing haechan blowing it up with notifications. his album was coming out and he wanted to come over to celebrate that and your birthday. maybe it was a coincidence that he did this? who knows anymore. he’s a weird one but you still love him.
once you text back and agree that he can come over, a couple minutes later and there’s a knock on the door. “come in! i’m cooking so i can’t get the handle.” and here he is, walking in with the comfiest sweatpants and a baggy top on, his sliders and hair messed up. “did you even- whatever, i’m happy to finally see you. you’ve been so busy recently.” you pout.
he walks over, biting back a grin on his face. “i know~ but it’s all paid off, right? i can finally rest with you for a couple weeks. i’m on hiatus.” he murmured, looking at what you were making for the both of you.
“ohhh, your dish? malatang? it looks yummy sunshine~” haechan grinned as he wrapped his arms around your waist, chin on your shoulder. “once we’ve ate, i’ll show you your present.”
˖ ᡣ𐭩 ⊹ ࣪ ౨ৎ˚₊
it was finally midnight - which meant that your present was here that haechan kept reminding you about and.. of course, his album release. you know he’s worked super hard and you couldn’t be more proud of him. you cherished his moments, his career, himself.
haechan saw you getting into your own little world and smiled, tapping your cheek gently, “come on beautiful, you ready?” with a nod, he began playing the album. every song so wonderful, so different, his style. and when it got to a song called “roll with me” he decided to tell you what it meant to him.
“that is your present, the song ‘roll with me’ which i wanted to surprise you with.. so you can listen to it and love it just as much as i do, and did while creating and writing lyrics that reminded me of you. my sweet sunshine..” he explained softly, with his lovely honey tone of voice and his soft brown eyes staring from your eyes down to your lips every second.
you couldn’t help but bite back a smile, your bottom lip between your teeth, your eyes crinkling. “haech..” you whisper, arms wrapping quickly around his shoulders as you brought him in for a tight hug, moving your head to the side and kissing his nape with a small peck. “you’re too cute.”

floorboards creaking in my home
deathly silence when alone
oh, i wish that you were here right now
it had only been some hours since the early morning when you had left donghyuck's apartment, and yet when he pulls himself out of bed to brew a cup of coffee he finds the quiet thrum of traffic outside to be more unsettling than he expected. no sounds of that new anime you were keeping up with, no beeping of the kettle used to boil hot water for your tea, and no screaming at the game he had bought you just last week.
he had finally given you a key and allowed you full access to his home, but the fuzzy feelings of sharing a living space for the first time were currently being overshadowed by your class and work schedules having you out most of the day. especially when his own schedule just wouldn't align, further complicating the matter. donghyuck moves to sit down on the couch, leaning forward to place his mug on the table in front of him. it's one you painted for him on an earlier date, covered in a soft yellow and adorned with a cute little bear.
the wood of the floor groans under the weight of his left leg, the sound seeming louder than usual in the silence. he frowns. his place was by no means new, what with the student-on-a-budget deal, but it wasn't particularly worn down either. just another thing to add to the already long list of problems, donghyuck thinks. he'd definitely have to call it into the landlord later.
pulling his phone from his pocket, donghyuck opts to scroll through his instagram feed. some stories in, one from you pops up. it's a video of him from last night, taken from behind on the very couch he's currently parked in. in it he can hear his own laughter, yelling at you due to the difficulty setting of the game being purposely cranked up so as to thwart him. there was an attempt, the caption reads, to which donghyuck chuckles.
the coffee has long gone cold when he reaches for it again, the taste now unbearably bitter. donghyuck's expression furrows, and to some extent he can understand why you don't enjoy the pressed beans as much as he does. he sighs and his arm falls to his side. would anything not remind him of you right now?
despite how much his heart yearns, begs him to dial the string of numbers now ingrained into the cells of his very fingertips, donghyuck is well aware that you probably wouldn't appreciate being called up in the middle of a lecture. so he resigns himself to tidying up around the room, taking care of the menial housekeeping tasks so you would at least have a clean space to return to. less mess, less stress.
-
donghyuck curses himself when he wakes up from his post-cleaning nap to a few texts and a missed call from his beloved.
4:37pm:
yo
what do u want from this place for dinner
5:15pm:
hurry renjuns treating
5:19pm
u suck
he shoots a quick message back, adding in a selfie of him still tucked into his sheets for good measure. if there's one thing you can't resist, it's when he softens himself for you.
5:21pm
sorry my beloved i was napping
donghyuck sighs and tosses the phone aside, getting up to start setting the table for your meal tonight. as he lays out the utensils, he finally hears the sound he's been waiting for all day. the pinlocks in the front door click, signalling your presence. the plates clatter from the abruptness of the silverware being dropped unceremoniously on top, the person having held them just seconds prior forgetting all about them.
"i'm h—" you aren't even able to eke out the entire sentence before a large fuzzy bundle comes up and entirely envelopes you. the food nearly becomes the second victim of donghyuck's sudden assault. "careful of the bag!!" the bundle finally relents, head poking out of the blankets and looking at you with sparkling puppy dog eyes.
"i missed you." it's a simple statement, and based on how it lacks his usual shit-eating grin you can tell he must've had a relatively uneventful day. so much for being off, i guess. unsure of how to respond right away you set the plastic bag to the side, the spot you can just barely reach on account of his tight grip, and quietly squeeze him back. the scent of his, no, your detergent now, is gentle on your nose. he smells like indubitably like home.
"i missed you too. let's enjoy that-" you gesture at the sad little bag on the floor. "before it gets cold, yeah?" you can feel donghyuck nodding at your words by the way the fabric shifts against the side of your head, and he shuffles you both the few steps from your position so he can pick it up. seeing what's inside, he very visibly lights up.
"this is... lowkey perfect for what i had in mind. wait here!" donghyuck breaks free from your hold, taking the initiative to whisk the food away. the blanket that enveloped you two gets tossed to the floor in front of the couch. you hear the chaos of him wrestling the cardboard take out boxes open, ceramic plate clinking, then the unmistakable beeps of the microwave before his head pops out from the kitchenette. "okay, come on in!"
when you shuffle into the connected dining space, the first thing you notice is the lit candles that have been meticulously arranged on the table. they vary greatly in size, forming trios that frame a spaghetti filled dish in the center. two placemats and full cutlery sets sit side by side each other, testament to donghyuck's clinginess that had only gotten worse with your moving in. said donghyuck speeds over to a chair before you can even touch it, pulling it out for you to sit down.
"m'lady." he teases, bunny teeth poking out in a smile.
you laugh, slapping his shoulder. "thanks, milord." it's only after readjusting yourself in your seat that you notice a distinct lack of actual plates in front of you. there are only forks and knives, and a glasses for whatever drink you'll end up choosing. "hyuck," you call. "where are the plates?"
turning your head, donghyuck is nowhere to be seen until suddenly he's making his way toward you from the living room hallway, playfully eyeing you up. when he had the time to move between the kitchenette and there, you have no clue. the smart bulbs dim, turning a warm yellowey-orange courtesy of the remote you know he's hiding in his pocket. "oh my, it seems i’ve broken them all. that's the last one we have… looks like we'll just have to share from that bowl!"
sometimes, this man is just unbelievable. not wanting to ruin the little setup he has going on, however, you decide to play along and put a pout on your face. "damn... and i had so much fun picking them out when we went to ikea too. they were my favorite." knowing you, donghyuck is also well aware you're messing with him. but something about your faux sadness coupled with the way you look at him tugs at his heartstrings just the right way, and he can't help but cave.
he pouts back. "is it so wrong to want to share a big ass bowl of pasta with my love, lady and the tramp style? wouldn't it be romantic to share a kiss over a noodle?" at the mention of the iconic scene he sighs dramatically, leaning against the table right next to you and draping the back of his hand over his forehead. you take his other hand in your own and lightly rub it with your thumbs, pressing a gentle kiss to his knuckles and looking innocently up at him.
"okay, okay, there's your kiss. can we eat now? i know you probably haven't had anything besides coffee, and i'm hungry too." your show of affection seems to have the intended effect, as donghyuck immediately shuts up and seats himself at your side, pulling the "big ass bowl" to an appropriate distance in front of you both. "jeno recommended this place, so renjun used a company card to cover everyone's orders." you explain.
on a bad day, donghyuck might’ve raised an inquiry about your coworkers. but this is no bad day, far from it, and he knows better than to doubt the relationships you have with his friends.
after twirling some of the noodles onto the fork and putting a bite in your mouth, a hand flies up to your cheek. you emit a sigh, noises fully content from just how good the food is. at this point, the man next to you hasn't made any sort of effort to shovel the pasta down the hatch like he normally might have. he simply looks at you with an unreadable expression plastered across his face, elbow propped up on the table and head resting in his hand. "are you okay? here, have some."
you take up another forkful and offer it to donghyuck's lips, but he doesn't accept it right away. "thank you for being here. with me." the change in his teasing attitude from earlier is unsettling, but not uncomfortable.
"it's not like i have anywhere else to come home to, you know. i do live here too." you joke, but it isn't met with donghyuck's typical banter. turning to him, you awkwardly cough when you see him staring right into your very core. "hyuck, you're scaring—"
he cuts you off, blurting his next words out. "i mean it. thank you for everything." the hand that isn't keeping his chin up reaches up to gently brush the side of your face, holding it with a tenderness that makes you melt into his touch. his thumb rubs at your cheek. "for bringing me food all the time. for moving in with me. for making my life so much better. everything just feels right having you here." you return the loving smile he aims at you, like a weapon of mass destruction. he could so easily destroy you with it.
"there's no one else i'd rather share that kind of life of with."
bonus:
it seems like donghyuck's returned to his normal self following your heartfelt exchange, and the heavy atmosphere has all but lifted.
"say ahh!" your silly hyuck carefully feeds you some of the spaghetti, one of the noodles slipping off the fork. while you try to reel the rogue in, he uses his thumb to wipe away the excess sauce that finds its way onto the corners of your mouth. you're still unsuccessful in nabbing the whole thing when he takes a bite himself. though you don't immediately pick up on it, donghyuck ends up facing the same problem as you.
more silence pervades the room as you two go to work on the pasta, and after about half a minute you want to punch the man in front of you in the throat because there's no way in hell he didn't do this shit on purpose. a single strand of spaghetti currently connects your lips, just as donghyuck had insinuated minutes prior. he makes a muffled noise of disbelief, as if he's appalled you're blaming him, but he doesn't let go of the noodle.
rather, he quickly chews it up, closing the distance between you and him and giving you a small peck. his attention then shifts back to the food as if nothing had happened. you can feel yourself heating up out of embarrassment, cheeks glowing.
"HYUCK!"
as always, thank you for reading !! likes are nice, but comments and fellow brainrotting are always welcome :>
style: 3rd person, non-idol au. wc:668 cw:fluff, pet names (once)
you stared up at the ceiling (was it the ceiling?.who knows? it was pitch black) with your sanrio duvet snuggled around your body (again, how could you see that? it was too dark to see!). Your toes peeped out shyly from the sheets (but you couldn't see- okay, sorry, i'll stop) and normally, you would have bunched them right up underneath the covers, but you were too fidgety to sleep. All you could think about was what had happened earlier on…your first date with your boyfriend, haechan.
it.wasn’t often that things went well for you, but your day out with haechan had swept you off of your feet. he wouldn't let you pay for anything, (no matter how much you shyly protested) encouraged you when you ate, (which resulted in you eating three quarters of the beef hotpot bowl) and took so many pictures of you while insisting that you looked better than any model (you wondered how he had any storage space left on his phone.)
the best thing about it all was that haechan didn't have to do any of that. it was obvious that he was deeply in awe of you. he gazed at you when he thought you weren't looking, his eyes soft with warmth and love. when you talked. his face broke into a grin as he listened to every word. in crowded spaces, he made sure that you felt safe, interlocking your hands tightly within his, weaving out of the bustling people to a safe area where you felt comfortable and secure.
with haechan, you felt as if you had been hit by a magic spark that turned everything bright and colourful. the sky was bluer, the clouds were puffier. life had a happier ring to it.
now, it was night time, and haechan was at his home. everything was limp and lifeless again.
BZZZZZZ-!
the familiar ringtone of your phone reverberated around the room..you jumped up to grab it from your bedside table. your heart beat an extra time when you saw who the caller was…
“haechan🧸”
you pressed the accept button, but now the call was live, you didn't quite know what to say.
“hello?” haechan's voice came through, and you had to use every nerve in your body to not squeal and throw the phone across the room.
“hi,” you said at last, your toes scrunched up in coyness.
“oh. hey,” haechan replied. “i hope i didn't wake you up?”
“no, i was awake.” you fanned your face with your hand in a weak attempt to stop your ears and cheeks burning up. it was no use, of course.
“i’ve tried to sleep, but i can't stop thinking about today,” haechan sighed. “it just keeps replaying in my mind, and it's driving me crazy how well it went.”
“i was doing the exact same thing,” you tried to say, but it came out as a hoarse squeak. haechan laughed, sending an eruption of butterflies across your stomach. “don't be shy, mama. speak up.” you cleared your throat as best as you could. “i said that i was doing the exact same thing.”
“great minds think alike, huh?” haechan replied.
“yes.” your voice was a soft whisper.
“then how about we spend the night together?” haechan's voice was hopeful. “we don't have to do anything too…too fast, you know. we could just watch a film together or eat something. i mean, we both miss each other, so we're basically solving the problem.-”
you muted the mic and briefly screamed in your pillow. for some reason, the prospect of being together with haechan at night made everything seem so thrilling and daring.
“y/n? where are you?” haechan's voice rang around the room.
you got up at last. “i'm here! it's alright,” you said.
“well? do you agree?”
“yes,” you replied, clutching the phone so hard it could have shattered in your palm. “yes, i agree. come over to my house now.”
Can you write whiny boyfriend Haechan cause you won’t kiss and cuddle him cause your busy please?
⤷ annas note : thank you for requesting this!! sorry this is so small, i didn't know what else to add . i hope you still enjoy !
"baby.." you hear your boyfriend, haechan whining beside you as you're on your phone scrolling through the internet to help you with your course work. you hum in response and he just whined once again.
"why won't you kiss me? promise just one and i'll stop whining.." he murmured as you chuckle, you knew him all too well and that would the kiss would lead to other things. "i'm busy, love, wait until i've finished.. it won't take more than half an hour."
"half an hour is too long without you in my arms, your lips on mine.. come on.." haechan pleaded with you and you couldn't say no to the way he was gazing at you with his puppy eyes. you sigh, "fine but i'm going straight back to studying after i take a little break - okay?"
you saw the smile appearing on the boys face and he nodded, "okay!" he grinned and pulled you into his arms, smothering you in kisses everywhere.
