Admin note: TYSM LOVELY and ofc you can lol. Btw, I’m delirious with exhaustion buuuuuuut hope you enjoy!
ok but just imagine -Seokmin’s a third year Ravenclaw
his closest friends are the other third years in his friend group
and yes he’s actually really smart
but kind of scatter-brained
like ask him which wizard coined the term "muggle” and he can list it off the top of his head in less than a second
but since there’s so much he’s always thinking about
a lot of it is really weird and potentially crazy mind-blowing stuff
it kind of looks like he’s daydreaming
“Seokmin! What do you want for lunch?”
“The animal form of a patronus charm reflects the-”
“I asked what you wanted for lunch, not for you to recite the textbook, are you ok?”
“Oh yea steak and kidney pie and pumpkin juice of course.”
always randomly shouting out facts or other random thoughts he has even if it’s completely unrelated to the conversation
“If basilisks stare at their own eyes in a mirror, do they get petrified?”
“If the paintings can move and talk and interact, do they need to eat and use the bathroom too?”
“Seokmin, that’s an interesting question, but I was just asking what the homework was for charms again?”
he’s so nice to everyone though
literally has never been caught passing someone on the moving stairs without a hi and a smile
and everyone has to admit he’s good-looking
he can be found in random corners of the castle talking to ghosts or paintings
he kind of just pops out of nowhere, it’s like he knows every single inch of the castle and can appear wherever he wants
your friend left her paper for transfiguration in the library and it’s getting late
you go up to the Ravenclaw dormitory
when you realize you have to solve a riddle
“What gets wetter the more it dries?”
“How the heck would I know?”
and you legit jump five feet in the air as Seokmin appears out of nowhere
“Thank you.” you tell him
he gives you a bright smile
“I’m bringing a paper for my friend.”
“Ah you’re a good friend.”
“How did you know the answer?”
“You just have to think things over, it might take a lot of time but after a while you realize you’re more capable than if you had just given up.” He shrugs
“Don’t wake up the paintings when you leave, they like it being silent when sleeping.”
“Ok…?” You say as he smiles one last time and disappears just as quickly as he had appeared
turns out he has potions with you
“Didn’t he seem kind of weird to you?” your Ravenclaw friend asks after you tell her about your encounter after returning her paper
“He seemed really nice though.”
“He’s nice and all, but a bit weird.”
you don’t say anything because you thought he was really cute and nice for having helped a random Gryffindor get into the dorms
and so you catch yourself staring at him a bit when in potions
and notice the way he scoots the ingredients closer to Mingyu when Mingyu had to reach all the way across the table for them
or the way he reads the directions in the textbook
how he gets a confused look and tilts the book a bit sideways
before giving an “aha” and telling Mingyu what to do next
and he looks up and catches you staring for just slightly too long
causing you to look down and blush trying to focus -even though you can hear his laugh across the room
and can see the smile still on his face as you pass him to leave the potions classroom
you end up in the room of requirement the next week
to finding some nosebleed nougat that you hid for a friend in case they wanted a reason to skip defense against the dark arts
and you notice Seokmin when you leave the room
“Hey, are you going to use the room?”
“Yes I have a book to find.”
“I’ll leave you to it then-”
you watch as he gently takes your arm and leads you back into the room before handing you a book out of a pile
“Riddling puzzles for every witch and wizard?” you read the title
“Yep, it’s in case you need to give papers back to a friend again.”
and he gives you another brilliant smile that makes your heart race a little faster
“Just doing my job of spreading knowledge.” He says holding out a hand for a high five while laughing
“Well pixies don’t bite for no reason.”
“Sorry I was thinking aloud, see you around y/n.” He turns waving goodbye
and when you're next trying to figure out a recipe for potions
Seokmin slides into the seat next to you
“You’re supposed to crush the roots before chopping them.”
he watches as you try it and succeed
“Woah that’s cool!” you tell him
your friend who's sitting across the table gives you a look
the look that says, "why is there some random boy here sitting next to you, and why have you not given me every detail about this situation?"
you blush and shake your head at her, eyes wide
Seokmin doesn't look up from holding the textbook a bit sideways
"y/n you can stir now." he gets up about to leave
you see something on his face, indecision is it?
"On second thought you might need me so I'll just stay here." he said quickly sitting back down next to you
he gives you a light chuckle and you feel your cheeks burn as you respond
"Sure, I'd probably mess it up without your help."
Mingyu is just staring at you and Seokmin from across the classroom
the both of you blushing while smiling and talking
he's going to have to tell the others about what happened
it gets even more suspicious
whenever the two of you see each other in the hallways, you both stop to blush and say hi and make small talk
even if you're blocking other people from walking to their next class
when you and Seokmin go to the library on the weekend
supposedly thinking it was just the two of you working on your potions paper
of course Mingyu is there spying
having brought some friends
which is probably how you ended up being surrounded by Seungcheol, Hansol, Jun, and Mingyu in the common room that evening
"Do you like our Seokmin?"
you'd like to say you kept your cool
but what chill did you have
not even letting you finish, the blush on your cheeks giving it away
"WE SAW YOU SMILING AT HIM IN THE LIBRARY IS THIS FOR REAL?!?!"
"We see him being cheerful all the time, but with you he smiles softer and his eyes practically sparkle." Hansol laughs
"You people spied on us?"
"wasn't a date and the library is open to all seeking knowledge"
"Yes knowledge on IF you like Seokmin" -giving up you sigh
the four of them start making weird sounds as they give you huge smiles
"Ok so let's say we know Seokmin likes you too."
you sit there not breathing
could they just be messing with you?
but they wouldn't, would they?
"He doesn't really ever shut up about you." Mingyu says rolling his eyes
"'y/n said that my potions paper was really good.... y/n's owl's name is Cara...' you know before it was hard keeping a straight convo with him because he'd bring up random facts or questions unrelated to the convo, but now he brings up you." Seungcheol snickers
"Tell you what, go for a walk to the lake tomorrow."
so the next day you walk down the path to the lake
and you see Seokmin there being dragged by his friends who had cornered you yesterday
and you see them say something to him pointing at you
you can see Seokmin turning pink all the way from where you're standing
then they pat Seokmin on the back and leave giving you winks as they walk away
"Hey Seokmin." you say already feeling warm in your cheeks, "Funny seeing you here." you laugh nervously
"S-s-so y/n, hi, I'm not sure w-w-what they said to you but, I'll try to cut to the chase."
your heart is beating so fast now it's ready to burst
he looked so cute being flustered and trying to talk to you
"So I should have known better than to tell them, but I did and now this happened and I'm sorry if you don't feel the same way but I like you a lot because you're smarter than you think and you're nice and pretty and my patronus is a horse and can you believe our school motto is 'never tickle a sleeping dragon'?-"
"Woah wait Seokmin-" you say blushing furiously now, "I didn't think you'd like me too...." you trail off
"Wait you like me too?!?!?" His smile lighting up the entire world
"Yea but I didn't think you'd like me even though your friends said you did because you're so smart and nice and amazing and I really liked talking to you and stuff..." you continue flustered
"They said that?" He laughs, "My friends always so nosy."
you both just laugh and look at each other
"So do you want to hang out on the weekend?" He says looking down at his feet and playing with a loose string on his robes
"I'd like that." You say smiling
he looks up practically jumping around excited
"Right now, but there's a quidditch game?"
"Oh right, want to sit next to me then?"
your heart flutters as he takes your hand and looks at you with puppy eyes
there's an uproar when you two walk into the stands holding hands
"See we told you we're good wingmen, finally got the weird couple together."
Seokmin just being a flustered mess and telling them to stop -and he pulls you to a spot away from them
"So now that we're dating-" he starts
"Dating?" You giggle, "You didn't even officially ask me yet." you say playfully pouting
"oh right," he pulls out a chocolate frog and a single rose seemingly from nowhere and surprising you, "Will you be my my girlfriend then?"
you have to collect your thoughts and calm down a bit before answering
"Yes of course." and then he embraces you in a hug
best feeling in the world
you rest your head on his chest
and when you look up, his smile is radiant
"I like the sound of that 'my girlfriend'" he says chuckling too
"But I could also use 'beautiful' and 'sweetheart' right?" He says looking at you
"Doesn't matter," you giggle, "but to me you're sunshine."
"I can see why, you're smile brightens everything." You laugh
and as the game proceeds you lay your head on his shoulder
hands held as the two of you talk about strategy
his bright personality making you feel happy and warm
the actual sunshine not even coming close to shining as brightly as Seokmin did with you
