henlo my beloved ursa!! i hope ur doing well 💕 if you still wanna do the first kiss prompt: baby blue and jangjun golcha? he is. admittedly in my thoughts too often nowadays 😳 (get him out of there)
[the antithesis of tranquility] Lee Jangjun is talking.
Lee Jangjun is always talking.
And it's no surprise to you, of course, not after all these years in which you've known him as the guy who never stops talking.
It's weird, though. Seungmin -- after Jangjun introduced you to his friends and then fucked off to do something stupid with Joochan while the rest of you watched -- helpfully informed you that, yes, Jangjun talks a lot...
...but only when you're around.
Sure, he's the life of the party in any social situation -- you can't remember the last time you had to put yourself out there without Jangjun by your side loudly proclaiming every good thing about you to anyone who'd bother to listen. (You hate when he does that, but you also take pride in his sincere compliments. He'd never say them straight to your face, so you've never told him to shut up, even though, in the moment, you often feel like burning yourself at the stake.) Any sort of situation in which he's around people he doesn't know, he'll know them soon enough. You're pretty sure everyone you've met since forcefully osmosis-ing yourself into their friend group has gone, "Oh, Lee Jangjun? I know that guy."
Except the thing is: Seungmin says Jangjun is actually a rather quiet dude.
You think it's bonkers, really, to want to live with nine other guys in the same house. Jangjun says the rent is killer (positive) when they all split it up, but you seriously can't believe the idea of two and a half bathrooms working between all of them. Not to mention the Watermelon Rind Incident of August 2022, in which only you sided with your newly proclaimed favourite of the house, Donghyun.
(Jangjun whined for three whole hours until you told him that, fine, he's tied for first place.)
Anyhow, despite living with a bunch of guys who are shockingly (and yet you're surprisingly unsurprised) capable of keeping up with Jangjun in terms of the volume you've borne witness to, Seungmin assures you that Jangjun tends to zip those lips of his whenever he's alone.
Seungmin actually said whenever he's not around you, but you don't think that makes much sense.
"You make him nervous," Seungmin teased one day, while you watched Jangjun laugh at Jaehyun, who was chasing Jibeom down the street for unknown reasons.
"Nervous about what?" you asked, but Seungmin just shrugged and smiled. He's annoying that way.
But now, while Jangjun rambles on and on in the space just outside of your front door, you think you get it.
He came running to your place on one of the grossest days of the year (it rained but it's also unbearably hot, which is so messed up, by the way) to make sure he caught you before you left for your blind date. He hasn't said a word (aside from hundreds of dumb, unrelated ones) about why he'd try to catch you before leaving, but that's not the problem.
You're not going on a date. You're headed out to watch your favourite guilty-pleasure feel-good movie at the old Selenite theatre, the one with only two showings rooms and unaffordable popcorn. Sure, you might call it a treat-yo-self date, but whatever this blind date shit he's spewing at you is so wrong you don't even know what to say as your brain shifts the puzzle into completion like an all-green rubiks cube.
Jangjun ran to your place through the hell-combination of rainstorm and heatwave because some shit-stirrer in his house (you suspect someone born in 1999...) told him you were bringing a date to your one-person party.
In other words;
Jangjun likes you.
"--and, I'm just saying, what about Saturday crossword competition day! We haven't done that in forever and you promised we could do it this weekend, I, uh-- I'm pretty sure!" He's grasping at straws, straight up gaslighting you into thinking you made plans for today when you know you were planning on kicking his ass at crosswords tomorrow, when the big bad Sunday edition comes out. "I haven't done the past week of crosswords just so we could do them together." You're pretty sure he doesn't do crosswords unless you're there, anyway. "And-- and Sungyoon made his famous cookies last night! You want them to just go to waste? All his hard work? You'd break his little ol' fragile ol' heart, shatter it into a million pieces. You want to ditch Sungyoon's cookies -- ditch our crossword coliseum? Oh! Oh! Jail for you! Jail for you for one thousand--!"
So you do the only thing you can think of to shut him up. You plant your lips on his, and smile at the sweet sweet sensation of utter silence.
(You suppose his lips pressing eagerly back onto yours is nice too. And his hands on your cheeks. And the fact that he's stupid crazy in love with you.)
((Later, when you drag Jangjun to the theatre you assure him you were planning on going to alone, you accidentally glance at his phone, where he's sent twenty or so frantic messages to Sungyoon. He needs him to make some cookies ASAP.))
warnings: jangjun being a little shit as usual /lh, a bit suggestive at the end
a/n: happy birthday jangjun <3 the ending sounds so skdhskshddk but i wrote this really quickly and i suck at endings so 🤡🤡
you slowly stretched as you opened your eyes, the sunlight shining through the window making you blink a few times. you slowly turned onto your side to face your boyfriend jangjun, who was still fast asleep next to you.
you smiled as you watched him sleep, admiring the way the soft light lit up his features. he had been very busy lately with all his schedules and this was the first time in a while that he had a day off, so you decided not to wake him up and let him catch up on some sleep.
while you were busy admiring his eyelashes, jangjun suddenly yawned widely and cracked his eyes open, catching you looking right at him. you immediately felt your cheeks heat up and hid your face in the pillow in embarrassment from getting caught staring.
"good morning sunshine. how long have you been staring?" jangjun chuckled as he flung an arm around your waist and pulled you closer to him, his thumb gently caressing your side. you pouted and looked back at him. "wasn't staring."
your boyfriend hummed in response. "if you say so y/n. i'll let this slide since it's my birthday and i'm in a good mood today," he said teasingly.
you rolled your eyes and smacked him lightly on the chest. typical of him to start teasing you from the moment he wakes up. "hmm since it's your birthday today i'll let you decide what to do now. do you wanna stay in bed more or should we get up and i'll make you breakfast?"
jangjun smirked after he heard your question, eyes glinting in mischief. before you could open your mouth to ask what he was up to, he had pushed you over onto your back and climbed on top of you. jangjun leaned down and pressed a long, passionate kiss on your lips, his hands slowly travelling down your body. you felt your face heating up for the second time as he broke away, leaning back to look you up and down appreciatively.
"breakfast sounds good but... would you like to be my breakfast instead?"
~ a/n . so i was watching that one jangstar episode with daeyeol and seeing jangjun on the rooftop screaming into the open air, gave me an idea... hence why this scenario exists. hope you enjoy and continue to love our jangstar with all the stars in the universe.
.
.
.
- now jangjun would absolutely LOVE spending time with you
- it is probably his favourite thing to do in the world
- when both of you guys are free he is attached to you at the hip
- when you meet at your date place he would hug you so so tight and like not let go
- you had to remind him that you had a date to be continuing but he’d be all whiny and ask for five more minutes in your arms
- dates for him are the perfect way to gain energy
- because of his busy schedule he isn’t able to see you as often as he wants too
- so maybe one or two dates a week if he isn’t extremely busy
- now let’s get onto jangjun’s personal favourite dates
- he would always ask for your input but these are his favourite ways to spend time with you
- ice cream dates !!
- jangjun seems like such a sweetie
- and what’s a better way to prove that than buying you something that’s as sweet as both of you
- the two of you are frequents to the ice cream place near his dorms
- i swear even if it’s -1 degrees outside he would be like “ight it’s ice cream time”
- he would drag you into the store by your hand and asked what flavour you wanted
- when you said something different to the usual he said “ooo spicing it up a bit now aren’t we jagi, would you be able to handle it ~” (teasing shit)
- his eyes would grow so large at the wide array of flavours, watching them being scooped into bowls diligently
- jangjun would order one bowl of the dessert instead of two, having your chosen flavours on one side and his on the other
- he just loves sharing things with you and it makes it easier if he wants to feed you some of his ice cream
- if your order was slightly incorrect he wouldn’t hesitate to call out the poor worker
- “excuse me sir, my jagi ordered two scoops of cookies n’ cream, why is there only one?” *you dying of embarrassment next to him* “jangjun honey, it’s alright-” “nu uh, my baby doesn’t deserve this absolutely disgraceful service. y’know what? we are going to a different store next time, this is unacceptable-” *then proceeds to go to the same place with you next week*
- would sit you down in a small booth in a corner and just talk to you about your day
- dates are basically like catch up time for him
- because of the nature of his work there aren’t very many times where he can just talk with you
- he loves to be filled in with all the things happening with your life
- jangjun is an amazing listener, he would bring up shit you said like 50 years ago that you barely remember yourself “ahh y/n how was your weekend off at jeju? what did you do?”
- would totally do that thing they do in dramas. when you have some ice cream on you lips he’d lean in and swipe it off with his thumb (lee jangjun the napkin was right there >:)
- he would get a bit embarrassed afterwards but it made you giggle so it’s one hundred percent worth it in his eyes
- insists to feed you, you’re his baby there’s no getting away from “say ahhh”
- loves to kiss you during these moments, his heart just swells with so much emotion seeing your cheeks full or seeing you suffer from a brainfreeze
- you would always taste the syrupy sweetness on his lips and the cold from the ice soon turned into warmth
- laser tag dates !!
- jangjun lives for your smile
- it actually completes him
- there are two quick ways to make you smile
- making you laugh and teasing you
- and during laser tag dates he always does an over abundance of both ~
- on this occasion he brought joochan and donghun along (he didn’t do it willingly, they begged him to earth and back and promised not to mess up the date) (if you count stealing a good chunk of your attention from jangjun a ruined date, then yeah they did :))
- so we now have a pouty jangjun who wants your attention very much because you’re talking to donghun more than him
- he get’s the perfect opportunity to get back at you when you’re put on opposite teams
- you and donghun vs. jangjun and joochan let’s go >:
- jangjun would always try and distract you by doing cute shit but it would never work
- even forgets about donghun he only has eyes for you, even when he’s trying to get you to lose
- “it would be amazing if my wonderful very beautiful y/n came over here for a second.” “lee jangjun do you think i’m daft” “daft for my love now come here-”
- when you try to shoot him and miss (you swear you hit his sensor though) he pokes his tongue out and runs off
- strong advocator against camping, he says it isn’t fair and a cheap strategy (it’s just that he’s never paying 100% of his attention to the game and gets caught out by donghun because he’s too busy looking at you)
- jangjun is so so so so so so in love with you but will never out rightly admit just how much he does, but it’s so evident in how he looks at you and in the little things (like not shooting you when he has the perfect opportunity to)
- i have a feeling he’d just randomly do the choreo to something like genie in the middle of the game and get pissy when someone catches him out
- turns out joochan wasn’t as good as a teammate as he thought when they lost to a cleverly planned ambush by you and donghun
- he swears his day can’t get any worse being betrayed by his partner and bandmates, but give him five minutes and a few pats on the head and he’s all yours again
- lovesick puppy ;-;
- board game dates !!
- sometimes the weather doesn’t always permit you to be able to go outside
- so on days of extreme weather he’d always show up to your door with heavy bags filled with unhealthy snacks, a blanket or two, alcohol (it’s no secret how much he likes to drink) and a few board games to try out
- after setting everything up he’d take a shot of soju to feel buzzed and doesn’t forget to feed you a bit before you start. he will not let his baby play with an empty stomach >:
- you guys always start with a classic: monopoly
- picks hat or dog; thinks the car is ugly
- cheats, like a lot.
- “jangjun you moved your piece ahead like fifty spaces bring it back- we both were on go a few minutes ago !!” “jagi what are you talking about? i was always there!!” *secretly moves his piece two spaces forward*
- goes to jail a lot but almost immediately gets a jail out free card (he isn’t cheating for this one, he just has luck you could only dream of)
- laughs so loudly when you land on his property and have to pay up, holds his hand out for the money and you wish you could beat him up; only with love though ~
- gets on his knees and begs you to give him four, hundred notes when he’s on the verge of bankruptcy
- you never agree and he always ends up loosing, accuses you of cheating and you can only laugh
- “you won AGAIN? y/n stop cheating, it isn’t fair-” “lovely to hear that from you lee jangjun...” “at least i cheat with pride and dignity!”
- will reluctantly move on to jenga
- even more tipsy this time, you’re the same (if you drink that is)
- makes up stupid dares you have to do if you lose
- it’s probably shit like running outside of your place into the street screaming or aegyo
- both for his personal enjoyment and good photos
- this is where you guys get serious
- no love just “YOU WERE THE ONE THAT TOUCHED IT LAST” “NO I WASN’T MY ARM WAS RIGHT HERE” “LIAR-”
- once you had a really long game and it looked like jangjun was going to win but you sneezed and made him lose focus
- as we have already established you are his baby, you can’t be sick wtf that’s a crime
- gives you the death stare as the tower topples
- *proceeds to do the most over the top aegyo you’ve ever seen before going back to giving you the death stare*
- just kiss him and he’d forget why he was even mad at you in the first place
- now he’s basically drunk at this point, slurring his words and refusing to let you out of his vice grip
- being smart you try to get him to bed but he refuses wanting to play one more game. what are you supposed to do, say no?
- that game ends up being charades !! jangjun is normally really good at this game, when he is sober that is...
- can not guess what you are doing for the life of him
- “giraffe, polar bear, gorilla-” *you were acting out excitement. the emotion.*
- giggles cutely when you guess correctly what he’s trying to
- his cheeks are all red form all the alcohol and i’m-
- both of you (only him if you’re not drunk) pass out on the couch just wrapped in blankets with your bodies smooshed together
- jangjun wakes up in the morning very happy despite his raging hangover
- video call dates !!
- jangun is an idol, the nature of his work means he can’t see you as often as he’d like
- even when he’s free your schedule sometimes doesn’t match up with his free days
- this problem won’t stop jangjun from trying to spend time with you, if he can’t smooch you in person he would give his laptop screen all the smooches in the world to make up for it :<
- video call dates are absolutely necessary to your relationship and they are your most common date
- jandjun would legit go insane without seeing your face for too long
- lost in the waves of constant dance practice, recordings and promotions you ground him
- you’re like his safe space, he can be as uncensored with you as he you wants (if jangjun is holding himself back in normal recordings just imagine how he’d be with you alone)
- so video call dates would happen very often definitely a minimum of three times a week
- y’all would do many things, maybe he would be studying japanese and you reading something required for work or school
- he could be working out and just called you to give him motivation
- but the most common type of video call dates are your mukbang ones
- jangjun loves to see you eat
- one of his favourite things is to share a meal with you
- so during dinner times, he thanks who ever cooked the food (ngl it’s probably takeout), took it to his room, told seungmin to go somewhere else for 30 minutes and turned on his laptop to call you
- smily when you answer and sees your face
- “y/n !! how was your day angel? i was missing you a lot today, have you eaten? no? go and get something then, i can hear your tummy rumbling from our dorm. we can have a little dinner date!!”
- help i am helplessly in love with this man and i don’t know what to do >:
- brings his food up to the camera “it looks good right~”
- WILL try and feed you through the screen and ends up spilling a bit on his keyboard
- will let you do the talking, will just eat happily nodding along adding input when needed
- jangjun fluffy cheeks full of food; my favourite concept ~
- will pout when he has to end the call because seungmin needs something in their room
- “i’ll talk you later y/n, always missing you~”
- rooftop dates !!
- jangjun’s final fav type of date
- he doesn’t want to do these too often, they need to feel extremely special
- when he knows you’ve been having a hard time recently or he hasn’t seen you in a while, jangjun would ask you to come to the rooftop of his dorm or company
- this where you would see him at his most romantic
- jangjun isn’t one for grand gestures and deep heartfelt declarations of love
- he shows his love in little ways most of the time but he just feels the obligation to do something bigger once in a while
- when you arrive at the rooftop, it’s decorated with fairy lights and pillows
- jangjun would sneak up behind you, placing his hands on your shoulders giving you a jumpscare
- “BOO !! hehe i scared you right ~ so... do you like it? i had youngtaek help me with it, i promised to buy him food afterwards. see, i owe someone food because of you-”
- would lead you to the pile of blankets plopping down first, patting the space next him
- won’t hesitate to burry himself into you his excuse being “i might not be able to do this again for a while” ;-;
- he would prefer rooftop dates in the day because cloud gazing is much more fun to him than stargazing
- jangjun would point out like really obscure and hard to see shapes in the clouds “oh my god jagi, look at this one !! it looks like burger ~” “hun are you hungry?” “maybe...”
- he’d also enjoy looking down at the street seeing people going about with life, it just made him feel more apart of something and not just a lonely island in the idol world
- if you really really liked the stars he’d change the plans to be in the evening instead (only because he has more chances to stare at you when you’re concentrated on trying to find patterns in the sky)
- would say shit like “the sky looks amazing, but not as amazing as you ;)” and you’d want to push him off
- honestly you’re the only person jangjun would ever stoop this low for in the realms of cheesiness
- moments like this would be the only times he’d ever tell you he loved you
- it’s not like he never feels it, because trust me he does every single moment he’s with you
- he would always say things like “you know you love me ~” often but it was always in playful jest (and when he mildly pisses you off oops-)
- those three words were only saved for perfect moments like this and you knew he meant them every time
- you guys would be looking up at the sky and he’d just grab your hand and rub your thumb saying how seriously lucky he is to know you and how he’d never imagine in a million years to be able to call you his, while cuddling closer to you. you’d just smile because lee jangjun- and he’d press his lips on the shell of your ear and say softly “i love you”
- (clock by infinite just came on DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BE OKAY RIGHT NOW)
- then he moved to your lips and i’m a goner-
- this is definitely the sappiest you’d ever see jangjun but this side of him was very very very cute n’ soft indeed
- would just lay with you forever and ever just enjoying your presence
- as long as your there jangjun would never look at anything that isn’t you
- lee jangjun just enjoys spending time with you so so much, it’s when he’s really at his happiest and most carefree
- make sure to take him to all your favourite places in return, he’d love to see all the things that make you happy :((
a/n . this killed me from the inside out, i love this boy so much- to whoever is reading this jangjun and golcha love you so much :(
Hi-- Sorry this took so long but here is a Golden Child smut! Also, I never actually heard a Golden Child song before this, and ohh my gosh Thankyou!! because their songs are so catchy!
WARNING: Sex, roughish?smut
---
It all started as just friends. Just friends. That's what you and Jangjun were friends. Until that one night, you two went out for soju and may have gotten a bit too drunk. Let's just that night with Jangjun was the best night you ever spent with him. The way his hands touched your bare skin and how his lips touched yours, it was magic. However, the next morning when you woke up in his bed you wondered if he remembered anything and if he did if he would regret it. So, carefully you slipped out of bed, quiet enough not to wake him, put your jeans and top on from the night before, and left. You didn't really want to face him right now, especially since he may of regret what was done.
Not even a few hours later you heard your phone ding, you glanced over and saw it was Jangjun.
You were nervous, waiting for his response. Staring at the screen as you see that he was typing.
A smile formed on your face, it was true you weren’t ready for a relationship just yet. But, friends with benefits sounded perfect. Especially with Jangjun, because even though you didn’t want to admit, you too always dreamed of that night before it even happened.
8 PM came faster than you expected as you waited for Jangjun to answer the door.
“Finally” He whispered as you pulled you in and shut the door behind you, pushing you against it and kissing your lips.
“Mmm, your inpatient, can’t even say hi, how was your day?” You teased.
He smirked, “Hi, how was your day?” He whispered in your ear as he peeled your shirt off you revealing a black lace bra underneath.
“Better now.” You let out a soft moan as his hands cup your breast, and then unlatched your bra,
Your bra fell on the ground and he picked you up, your legs wrapped around his waist as he brought you over to the bedroom and threw you gently on the bed.
“Fuck, I’ve been waiting so patiently for this all day.” He smirked as he slid off his shirt and threw it at you.
You giggled, staring at his perfect abs. Fuck, you didn’t remember how good he looked from last night, maybe because of the Soju, but damn, Jangjun was perfect.
He came towards you as soon as he pulled down his jeans, “As much as I love those black tight skinny jeans on you, I think I’d loved them more off you Y/N.”
“Will then take them off.” You teased
“Don’t have to ask me twice.” He smiled as he leaned down and unbutton your jeans, pulling them down and off to see black laced panties underneath, “Fuck, I was right. You look so good with them off too.”
Jangjun then began to kiss you from your stomach, all the way up to your lips, and as you two made out he slowly takes off your panties and threw them aside.
“Do you want to be inside of you as badly as I want me inside of you Y/N?” Jangjun whispered.
You just nodded as you stared into his eyes. He then smirked as he quickly took off his boxers and spread your legs a bit.
Jangjun looked you in the eyes as he entered slowly in you.
“Fuck, Y/N, you feel so good.” He whispered
You let out a soft moan, “Fuck, so do you.” You replied.
He kept going, faster, deeper, then back to slow to tease you a bit, his hands exploring your body as moans filled the room. You two kept going at it for hours until finally, he fell to your side as you two breathed heavily.
“That was so much better than last night.” Jangjun smiled over at you as he gave you a soft peck on the lips, “I can’t wait for many more nights with you Y/N.”
Lee Jangjun is anything but ordinary, and when you cross paths with him, he doesn’t leave the best first impression.

The doorbell rang joyfully above your head when you entered the flower shop - called Coup de foudre - your grandmother had told you about. She had said that it was her favourite and that she had always come here for flowers and plants because the range was wide, the prices were good and the service was excellent.
Knowing how happy she would be receiving a bouquet of flowers for herself while she was in the hospital, you made your way to the counter where a slender guy was casually leaning onto the wooden material. When he saw you, he pushed himself up and smiled at you brightly as if he had been in some kind of a toothpaste commercial.
You had to admit that he was a sight to behold with that charming smile of his, shining eyes, chestnut-brown hair, sharp jawline and broad shoulders. He wore a casual white tee underneath an ocean-blue denim jacket, yet his smile was the one that got you the most. It made you feel like the flowers were blooming and the sun was shining through the thick, dirty grey clouds.
“Good afternoon! I would like a bouquet of peruvian lilies and daisies!” You ordered as you stepped closer to the counter and reciprocated the guy’s smile. He looked puzzled for a moment but then he reached for a bouquet not too far from him and put it down in front of you.
“Oh, right. Here you go.”
“Are you sure these are the ones that I’ve asked for? My grandmother said that they are supposed to be yellow and white,” you mentioned as you remembered your grandmother’s favourite type. You might not have been an expert when it came to plants but you sure knew it because it was her favourite.
Hearing that, the guy’s smile wavered for only a fraction of a moment, it was there in the next moment in an even brighter and more charming version.
“Well, why don’t you take these home instead?” he suggested casually as he pointed at the bouquet. Then, he put his palms onto the counter and leaned forward, lowering his voice. “Pink fits your tinted cheeks,” he added cheekily and even winked at you to which you only narrowed your eyes.
Maybe he was right about your tinted cheeks but it was only because of the hot weather outside and the fact that you had just escaped a bus full of sweaty bodies and you were also sweating yourself due to the crazy heat. It was definitely not because of him and his charming smile.
“I’m not taking home something that I haven’t asked for,” you stated firmly and cleared your throat before you continued. “Are you new here?”
“No, I’ve been around here for sometime.” He shrugged his shoulders casually, pushing himself off the counter. You had a feeling that he was trying to play it cool, but you didn’t want to call him out before you let him know about the reason behind your suspicion.
“My grandma told me that I’ll be greeted by a pretty, young lady when I come here.”
“You’ve got a handsome, young man instead. Isn’t that amazing?” he counter-attacked with a wide grin and ruffled his hair, probably just to tease you. You had to admit that he was indeed a handsome guy and there was just something very intriguing about the way he talked, but he was getting on your nerves for the time being.
Letting out a sigh, you realized that you would probably not go anywhere with this guy, so you decided to step up your game.
“Where is that woman my grandma talked about?” you asked sternly, hoping that it was concrete enough for the guy to give you a genuine answer.
“Oh, you mean the owner?” He raised his eyebrows comically and his eyes doubled in size as if it had been that difficult for him to process that you were here for someone competent and not for flirting.
You nodded and it was finally enough of an answer for him to give up on handling everything by himself as he shouted into the back part of the shop:
“Lee Mijooooooooooo!”
There was a moment of silence that fell over the place before a strong female voice was heard.
“Yah, I’ve told you not to shout, Lee Jangjuuuuuun,” she mimicked the guy’s tone as she was walking from the back to the counter and when she caught sight of you, she dusted off her jeans and smoothed the wrinkles on her light peach blouse. “Oh, hey! What can I help you with?” she inquired kindly, in a way that was both polite and easily approachable. You knew already that this was the woman your grandmother had talked about.
“I would like a bouquet of peruvian lilies and daisies,” you repeated yourself with a bit of a nervousness because you couldn’t quite pinpoint their behaviour towards each other.
“Alright, just a minute, please,” the pretty girl told you with the widest smile possible and you were actually wondering if they were of the same blood because their smiles were kind of similar when the so-called Mijoo looked above her shoulder while preparing your bouquet and remarked:
“Also, don’t mind my dumbass cousin. I know he’s annoying.”
“Isn’t that too harsh, my dearest cousin?” The guy pouted sadly and there was such a childish vibe around him that you wondered how much of an age difference existed between the two of them. “I help keeping this shop going while you are on lunch break. As I’ve said, I’ve been around here for sometime,” he pointed out with an annoyingly wide grin to which her cousin merely rolled her eyes.
“Yeah, sure, you are just scaring off the customers,” she retorted with a snicker and turned back to the flowers, her hands working wonders on the types you had asked for. “What’s the occasion if you don’t mind me asking?” she spoke up after a few moments of silence while her cousin was still eyeing you and you were trying to busy yourself, looking at anything but the guy’s face. You were a bit afraid that your cheeks would become even more tinted if you actually kept looking at him.
“Oh, actually, my grandma is in the hospital, so I’ve wanted to bring her her favourite bouquet from her favourite flower shop,” you replied with a semi-happy smile because when you thought about your grandmother, you were always reminded about her wide smile and shining eyes, but now she was in the hospital because she hadn’t taken care of herself and had fallen down the stairs, and you were afraid that it wouldn’t be the first and last occasion she ends up in the hospital due to her carelessness.
“Aww how lovely!” Mijoo let out a bit of a sound in awe and your smile became wider, thankful that the girl was genuine about her reaction.
On the other hand, Jangjun couldn’t let this chance slip away because he was quick to chirp in, that grin not leaving his lips.
“Why don’t you take me instead? I’m sure I could brighten up the mood at the hospital for your grandma.” He winked at you, eyes full of mischief, and you were about to open your mouth, but Mijoo was faster than you.
“Yah, Lee Jangjun!” She exclaimed frustratedly, her voice full of authority. You may not had known them before, but you were sure that it was the girl who usually had the commander role out of the two of them.
The guy then played the innocent boy who hadn’t done anything wrong, throwing his hands into the air as if he had been saying that he didn’t get girls while Mijoo was finishing up your bouquet, putting it down in front of you and apologizing a few more times and telling you to not mind him while you were dealing with the payment. You reassured her that it was no problem on your part, after all, it wasn’t her fault and while the guy didn’t say anything beside her, you could see and even feel the playfulness behind his smirk.
You thought that you were done just like this, but after walking further away from the flower shop, someone fell into step with you and started walking by your side, his hands in his pockets, whistling as if he had never had a better day.
“You seem to have a lot of spare time on your hands,” you pointed out, furrowing your eyebrows in question.
“Or I’m just willing to keep the lovely elderly some fun company in my free time. We could say that I’m a hero without a cape,” he counter-attacked, wiggling his eyebrows.
It felt like no matter what you said, he could always say something that would leave you a bit speechless. He was sure one very talkative person, but with his personality, you were sure that your grandmother would enjoy herself. It was just difficult and a bit odd to admit such things to a total stranger.
“You sure have confidence,” you told him as you took a turn and he followed you like a dog, his confidence and enthusiasm not wavering.
“I’ll take that as a compliment.”
“Take it however you want.” You smiled an overly sweet smile at him, not giving him the chance to misunderstand your words.
You continued bickering all the way to the hospital but eventually when he got in, he had to realize that you weren’t against him visiting your grandmother. However, you told him that it would be only for this day and if he did anything inappropriate or said anything hurtful, you would push him out of the ward without a word. He saluted hearing that and so you two walked to your grandmother’s room.
Your grandmother’s eyes immediately lightened up when you entered the room. Yet, when her eyes slid from you to Jangjun, there was a bit of a knowing smile being painted on her lips. You couldn’t help but frown a bit upon seeing the obvious consequences of Jangjun being by your side, him even adding to the misunderstanding.
“Oh, I see that I have another visitor today!”
“That’s right, ma’am. My name is Lee Jangjun, and I’m here to entertain you,” the guy enlightened her with a theatrical bow and he was about to give a kiss on your grandmother’s hand but you yanked his hand away. He needed to know his place.
“Are you two perhaps-”
“No, grandma. We aren’t dating,” you cut her off immediately, shaking your head fervently. “Today was the first time we met,” you added with a forced smile, hoping that this part of the conversation would end soon. However, the embarrassment wasn’t over.
Your grandmother let out a wholehearted laughter that you couldn’t pinpoint until she decided to add her reasoning.
“I’ve wanted to ask if you two happen to attend the same university, but that’s also a helpful piece of information,” your grandmother elaborated almost cheekily and you had to admit that despite her age, she was quite the woman herself. She had always been the less strict and more fun-loving grandmother out of the two you thankfully had and could spend your childhood with, and of course, the boyfriend topic had always been brought up, and you had just seemed to give her another reason to keep this topic alive.
“I’m pretty sure we’re not, but maybe it’s destiny that we still met,” Jangjun remarked and flashed a bright smile at you as he looked from your grandmother to your face. You put on another overly sweet smile - but mostly because of your grandmother, not because of Jangjun - and let the boy think that you two meeting had anything to do with destiny or whatsoever. You didn’t believe in such things anyway.
However, no matter how much you tried to deny, Jangjun actually made your grandmother really happy. She laughed and giggled so much, and it had been a long time ago since you had seen her acting so beamingly. Maybe it was because Jangjun was really like an entertainer and his choice of major - broadcasting masters after a similar BA - also proved that and him wanting to become an MC was not so surprising either. He really knew how to liven up the mood, how to change topics and how to add to basically anything anyone had said. He was hilarious, his life full of unbelievable and funny stories, and after a while, you found yourself loosening up beside him instead of being ever so cautious.
You weren’t even taken aback when your grandmother invited Jangjun to come back next time as well, and this was how the random guy from your grandmother’s favourite flower shop became the personal hypeman and storyteller to your grandma who couldn’t help dropping complimentary comments regarding you to make Jangjun as impressed as possible. You had a difficult time dealing with these two because you definitely didn’t like when someone played a matchmaker, and Jangjun just had to top everything with his own eccentric personality and charming smile - the one that you fell in love with, and the one that he just couldn’t not use on you, especially after he had gotten to know that it was your weakness and a way to your heart.
Though there was no use of denying your feelings because Jangjun was a genuine, caring, kind-hearted, supportive and extremely loving guy who would never want anything more than making you as happy as possible, and while being his girlfriend seemed like a total chaos sometimes, you would have never had it another way.
jangjun from golcha fluff no. 25 and maybe a lifeguard au?👉👈
Prompt: “You look really cute in that.”
lifeguard!jangjun x fem!reader
Lee Jangjun was on the lookout. His gaze, sharp like a hawk looking for prey, was watching over the people playing in the water. If it was him on guard duty, there could not be anyone drowning in this part of the beach. There would also be no one to cause a ruckus like that two teenage boys trying to harass a group of girls. Jangjun lifted his megaphone to his lips and shouted, “Stop embarrassing yourselves and go home. Nobody wants to flirt with your ugly asses.”
The two boys looked up at him standing high and mighty on his stand and glared at him. It was visible that they had more to say in refute but they were intimidated by the authority of the lifeguard and the physic of Jangjun and left, grumbling among themselves. Jangjun sighed before switching his expression to business mode again and waved at the girls with a smile.
Good. If things go like this, his uncle would let him take over the mid-summer shift as well, increasing his pay. It would take no time before he would get enough money to buy the sound equipment that he found the other day. Once he got his hands on it, his road to becoming a superstar producer would be nothing but a stroll down the beach. He just had to work hard for a little bit longer.
Suddenly, a scream ripped him out of his dreamland and his gaze skimmed over the surface of the water to find the source. Nobody was drowning, he could let out a sigh of relief. As he examined the situation for a few moments, he realized that a playful gust of wind stole the summer hat of a girl who screamed in surprise.
Jangjun didn’t need to ponder upon what to do, he rushed into the water right away, swimming until he reached the hat floating in the sea. He was a great swimmer, spending all his free time at his uncle’s side as a lifeguard or playing around in the water ever since he was a toddler definitely paid off. It took him no time and little effort to retrieve the lost hat and present it back to the damsel in distress.
“Here you go,” he said proudly, putting the summer hat on top of the girl’s head. Jangjun considered this act both very chivalrous and a sure-to-succeed tactic in making anyone’s heart jump. However, what he didn’t consider was that in the next moment, it was his heart that would make not only a jump but a big leap.
A pair of bright eyes peered at him shyly from under the wide rims of the sun hat and your soft voice melted his ears as you smiled at him, “Thank you so much.”
Jangjun gulped before quickly adjusting himself and laughing away his momentary embarrassment, “No problem, no problem. It’s what I do. It would have been a shame if you lost your hat, you look really cute in that.”
His improvised rambling wasn’t met with disinterest as you kept watching him with your full attention, rewarding him with a melodic laugh every once in a while. Jangjun found himself slowly drowning in your gaze, unable to stop. He took only one glance up at the sky, praying in silence, “May nobody have an accident today because I, for sure, will not able to save anyone now.”
"Okay, tell me their name again?" Jangjun says to Daeyeol.
He's laying on the couch, head very close to the floor and legs draped, slightly bent and mildly uncomfortable, over the back. It really isn't comfortable and Jangjun is pretty sure too much blood in your head is bad but he mostly does it just to irritate Sungyoon.
Daeyeol just shakes his head and sighs. He walks over and sets the paper on the table in front of Jangjun. It looks very detailed and thorough and so ridiculously, incredibly boring. Daeyeol doesn’t even look back to see if Jangjun has bothered to move.
He just mutters, almost as if to himself, “make a fool of yourself. See if I care.”
Jangjun does admit that Daeyeol, unfortunately, has a point. Not knowing his fellow MC’s name would not be a wonderful display for himself or Golden Child.
He notices a foreign name listed first and tries his very best to pronounce it. He isn’t sure how close he gets but looking further down he notices a Korean name. He sighs in relief.
He reads over the rest of the paper. Apparently you were going to be debuted as a solo artist but got added to the group late. Interesting that they chose you to be the MC but with your nickname as 'cutie joke master' maybe it was a good choice.
Jangjun comes in a little early hoping to be there before you and have a chance to make a good impression. Imagine his surprise when you're already sitting in the dressing room. He walks in front of you intending to introduce himself when you suddenly bolt up out of the chair and bow.
“With you - no - to be - urgh - happy to be MCing with you!” You spit the words out so fast Jangjun barely understands you.
He does notice, obviously, you still having problems with the sentence structure and your accent. He can only hope that the viewers find it as endearing as he does.
“Nice to meet you too. I don’t know what they fed you before coming here but you’ll need to slow down a little bit if you want anyone to understand you,” he smiles a bit to show you he’s joking and you laugh a little in return.
“I don’t need to eat any - anything when I can be nervous in - instead!” You deliver the line with such a wide grin that Jangjun smiles back without even meaning to or noticing.
The first night goes smoothly. Your confidence and smiles notably increase when you speak smoothly from the cue cards. Jangjun even finds himself captivated by you when you jump ahead a little when he knows full well if it had been one of his own members he would’ve been annoyed.
The weeks pass like that. Jangjun starts to look forward to the show but mostly to the time you get together before the show. Don’t get him wrong, he appreciates looking at you all styled on stage but you’re… softer, more vulnerable backstage. On stage, your confidence has sort of made you a force of nature. Sometimes he passes you taking selfies for instagram and pops in the back, with or without you knowing.
What really catches him out is when you go live while heading out. He’ll usually pop in eventually but before that, he likes to watch how confident you’ve become. From stuttering out a single sentence to freely talking to countless unseen viewers.
Everything he sees starts to eat him up inside though. Sure he thought you were attractive from the picture, even more so in person, but after talking to you so much he could hardly help falling for you.
There’s a fair amount of ways this could go wrong and many, many more reasons he shouldn’t do it no matter if you return his feelings or not. Not many things could stop him at this point especially not with several of his members, Jibeom and Joochan mostly, constantly bothering him about it.
When you walk out of the dressing room that night you’re surprised to see Jangjun still standing there in the hallway. Normally he’s long gone before you even think of getting out of that room.
“Jangjun?” You ask when he doesn’t move for a few seconds.
“Oh! Just who I was looking for!” He smiles at you.
“You were looking for me? Why?”
He giggles nervously, “about that... I was wondering if I could maybe, possibly get your number? To you know…” he lowers his head and shakes it at himself, “never mind. That was stupid, I should go.”
“Jangjun!” you protest.
He turns back to look at you, eyes wide.
“There’s a sharpie back in the dressing room.”
He looks at you, eyebrows furrowed, “why do you need a sharpie?”
You laugh brightly at him, “how else am I going to write my number on your arm, silly?”
His face lights up and he practically runs back down the hallway.
[12:00 am] sometimes you wished you weren't roommates with your friend, because you get to hear them call your crush!jangjun until ungodly hours, laughing and giggling. blasting music didn't even help thanks to your loud friend, maybe it was for the better you let him go.
