jay looks offended, deeply offended, and if they handed out oscars for the most disturbed-looking husband on a random thursday afternoon, he wouldâve walked up to that stage with a speech memorized. no hesitation.
he lowers the hammer in his hand, lets it drop onto the half-assembled desk with a dull clunk, and wipes his forehead with the back of his arm, smearing a bit of sawdust across his temple.
âi literally married you,â he says, breathless, as he steps near you, sitting on the edge of the bed.
âyeah but people marry people,â you sigh, putting on a faux sad expression, âbut do you really love meââ
âdarling, iâm literally building you a wooden vanity closet,â he cuts you quick in your sentence, his eyes wide, âand it has been three hours now. i wouldnât do that for anyone else.â
you press your lips together to keep from laughing. âyou look good doing it though.â
his jaw ticks, he knows not to lose his patience, especially when you are all cute and testing it. he still thinks your question is ridiculous, of course he loves you. he loves you way more than the effort heâs putting in the vanity, and itâs not even one percent of what heâd do for you.
âmy back hurts.â he sighs yet again
âbecause you love me?â âbecause iâm married to you,â he deadpans, rolls his eyes and strawls closer to you.
you pout. itâs exaggerated, a little playful. âso you donât love me?â
jay huffs, then drops to his knees in front of you with a thud, on the bed. his hands settle on your thighs, sawdust and all, and his fingers press into your skin gently, grounding.
he looks up. his eyes are warm, but serious. intense, even.
âyou drive me insane,â he murmurs. âyou leave the shower light on. you forget where your charger is every day. you sing off-key when you think iâm not listening.â
you breathe stops, and before you can muster up a sentence, he says again.
âand i love you like iâm sick with it.â
you feel like your stops, with blood rushing up to your cheeks you really donât know if you can handle this anymore. his thumb brushes over your knee.
âand if you say dumb shit like that again,â he says, voice low, âi might have to marry you again, just to prove a point.â
you open your mouth, ready to sass him back, but he leans in before you can.
his hand finds your waist, warm and rough from hours of sanding wood. his other hand cups your jaw, thumb brushing the corner of your mouth like heâs mapping it out. like he missed it all day. like he needed this more than food or rest or sanity.
and then he kisses you. not a soft peck. not a tired brush of lips. itâs full. warm. deliberate.
his mouth slides against yours like heâs finally off the clock, like this is his reward â the only thing that makes the bruised knees and splinters and forgotten lunch worth it.
your fingers twist into his shirt instinctively. his thumb brushes down the side of your neck as his lips move against yours with something a little hungry, a little breathless, but still so stupidly in love.
you pull away for air, lips tingling, chest rising in soft, quick breaths. your fingers are still fisted in his shirt, and he looks up at you like you just knocked the wind out of him â which, to be fair, you did.
jayâs lips are red, a little kiss-swollen, and heâs breathing just as hard.
you blink, lips tingling. âso, i guess, you really do love me?â
âi love you when you talk too much,â he continues against your lips, grinning, âand when you ask dumb questions, like if i still love you.â
you let out a tiny gasp, equal parts amused and overwhelmed, and he pulls you even closer, your forehead pressed to his. your hands rest on his shoulders, thumbs brushing the slope of his neck.
âhey,â you whine softly, but he leans forward again and steals another kiss before you can complain further â short, warm, like a punctuation mark.
âi spend three hours building a closet,â he continues, kisses the corner of your mouth, âyou sit here looking like a whole heart attackââ another kiss, this time near your chin, ââand then you askââ kiss ââmeââ kiss ââif iââ kiss âlove you?â another kiss.
you laugh into his shoulder, hands slipping up into his hair, heart stopping âi just wanted to hear it.â
his lips curl, lazy and crooked. âyouâre so annoying,â he mutters
your breath catches as he rests his forehead against yours, noses brushing, full of love. âgod,â he mutters, eyes still closed, âyou drive me insane,â he chuckles again like a reminder.
âyou like it,â you whisper, a chuckle falling on your lips.
he smiles, just a little. then, without letting go of you, he sinks to the floor.
kneels. infront of you.
his arms wrap around your waist, cheek pressing softly to your thigh. he exhales against the fabric of your shorts, like being close to you settles everything.
you run your fingers through his hair, slow. comforting. he hums under his breath, content and quiet, letting his body relax against your leg.
âthis okay?â he sighs, his lips tickling your skin as he grins on it.
you nod, resting your hand on his cheek. âyeah,â you smile. âmore than okay.â
his lashes flutter as he closes his eyes again.
and there you sit, a half-finished vanity in the corner, a husband with sawdust on his arms and love in every touch, and a kiss still tingling on your lips like a promise that never gets old.
your heartbeat is still racing a little. his breaths are slower now. calm. heavy.
âi love you,â he says eventually, voice muffled and slept against your thigh.
you smile. bend forward and kiss the top of his head, âi know. i love you more.â

every single night, without fail, after the grueling practice schedules, the long showers, and approximately seventeen near-death experiences caused by seonghyeon and keonho being left unsupervised together, the six of you would inevitably gather in the living room. it had become an actual routine; an unspoken rule youâd followed starting at 11:30 pm every night: âgirl talk time,â youâd collectively named it, despite the glaring biological fact that only one girl was present in the group. the first time someone pointed that out, james had simply shrugged his shoulders and said, âgirl talk is a state of mind.â nobody had questioned it since.
â
tonight, the room was a canvas of comfortable chaos, everyone scattered around the floor. martin was making hot chocolate. juhoon was folded inside a blanket burrito. keonho was upside down on the sofa for reasons nobody understood. james was sitting beside you, one arm around your waist. you were painting the nails of his other hand a shade that matched yours. seonghyeon was dramatically sighing, which usually meant he had gossip.
âwhat happened?â martin made the mistake of asking.
immediately he sat up. âoh my god.â
the room collectively perked up like hungry wolves.
âwhat?â
âwhat happened.â
âtell us.â
âi walked into studio 7b today,â he started slowly.
âdamn.â
the reactions came immediately.
âno way.â
âagain?â
ânot 7b, damnnn.â
seonghyeon pointed dramatically into the air. âi saw two of our sunbaes holding hands.â
the room exploded.
âwho?â
âwho?â
âdrop the names.â
âiâm not naming names.â
âbooooo.â
âboring.â
âyou suck, eom.â
â...fine! one of them was niki hyung.â
âi knew it!â
âletâs get it, hyung!â
james grabbed a cushion to settle in, shifting you so that you were in a more comfortable position against him. âcontinue.â
the next hour consisted entirely of teaâcompany tea, friend group tea, just about anything.
âi saw one of the new trainees get rejected and she immediately called and told three different people saying she was âtoo busy to date anyway.ââ
the room screamed.
âno!â
âdude, thatâs hella embarrassing.â
âthatâs insane, damn.â
then martin contributedââi heard one of the dance instructors accidentally called one of the idols by their exâs name.â
the room nearly collapsed under the weight of the collective uproar. keonho literally rolled off the sofa onto the hardwood floor. you couldnât breathe from laughing.
âno.â
âno way!â
âoh my god, actually?!â
meanwhile james was crying, or laughing, or both, into your shoulder, his whole body shaking with amusement.
â
other days, inevitably, the conversation shifted like it always did. from gossip, to life, to feelings, to whatever happened to be bothering someone. tonight the focus was you, because you were curled up under a blanket looking miserable. james noticed first. his hand immediately found yours under the fabric.
âyou okay?â
you groaned. âno.â
âwhat happened?â
âmy period.â
instant sympathy radiated from all five boys around you. every single one of them immediately looked concerned, shifting the collective atmosphere instantly. even after knowing about it for so long, they still reacted like youâd been diagnosed with something terminal.
âbad?â juhoon asked slowly.
âso bad.â
âhow bad?â seonghyeon chimed in.
âimagine somebody put barbed wire around your organs.â
the room collectively winced and âooofâd.
âand twisted it constantly. again and again.â
âoh.â
âand then ripped it out all at once.â
âwhat the fuck.â
âand repeat it for a week.â
âthatâs actually horrible, what the fuck?â
âevery month.â
james looked genuinely upset, pulling you a little closer. âbaby.â
âiâm fine,â you muttered.
âyou donât sound fine.â martin nudged your leg with his.
âokay, whatever. iâm not. this world sucks. cramps suck. schedules suck. everything except you guys just sucks.â
the thing wasâthe boys had spent years learning. not because they had to. because they wanted to. at first theyâd been clueless. absolutely hopeless.Â
now? martin already got up to make your favourite tea. juhoon was looking for heating pads. james was trying his best to gently massage your lower back. keonho was googling foods that helped cramps. seonghyeon looked personally offended at your uterus.
âthis is ridiculous,â he said suddenly.
you laughed. âwhat is?â
âthe female body. why does everything hurt you guys?â
âthatâs your conclusion and question?â
âyes.â
âyou train twelve hours a day and this is what you find unfair?â you laughed.
âabsolutely!â
twenty minutes later, you were laying across the sofa with your head in jamesâ lap, and heating pad on your stomach. the boys surrounded you, just listening to you talk.
âwait,â juhoon interrupted slowly. âso it just hurts for no reason?â
âbasically.â
â52 weeks every year?â
âyep.â
the room became silent.
âthat's awful.â
âthank you.â
âwomen are stronger than soldiers. iâd pick military service over even a fraction of what youâre going through any day.â
the rest of them nodded seriously.
âyouâre all ridiculous,â you burst out laughing.
â
another night, it would be completely different, because somebody else would need help. like the time keonho developed a crush, and unfortunately made the mistake of admitting it in front of all of you. the room immediately transformed into an interrogation room.
âwho is she?â
âwhatâs her name?â
âwhen do james and yn meet her parents?â
âwhen did this happen?â
keonho looked terrified while you looked absolutely delighted.
âoh weâre doing this?â you grinned, cracking your knuckles.
âweâre doing this.â james high-fived you.
three hours later, the boys were still asking questions, treating your answers like divine knowledgeâdrifting from keonhoâs crush to girls, in general.
âwhat does it mean if she sends heart emojis?â
âit depends.â
âon what?â
âeverything.â
âyn.â
âbro, iâm serious.â
âno wonder weâre confused.â
then, keonho asked the question of the century, âwhatâs the difference between the red heart and any other coloured heart?â
you nearly choked as the room froze.
âwhy do you all want to know the emoji differences?â
âbecause weâre trying to survive. the world is cruel to hopeless boys like us.â
âwell, the red heart means she doesnât really care enough to go through the trouble of finding a different coloured heart, or she just likes the original emoji.â
âthat doesnât help in the slightest.â
âok, so you want me to stop?ââ
âno! go on.â
âwhatâs the black heart for?â seonghyeon asked curiously.
âshe probably hates you, dude,â keonho said helpfully.
âor maybe sheâs just a little emo?â martin offered.
â
the best part was that nobody made fun of anyone, not when it mattered, because somehow those late-night conversations had become the safest place in the dormâwhere james asked questions heâd never ask anyone else; where juhoon talked about feeling overwhelmed; where martin admitted he worried too much; where seonghyeon confessed he hated disappointing people; where keonho admitted he got insecure sometimes, and where you could complain about cramps, bad days, weird friendships, awkward situations, and literally anything without being judged. the conversations always started with gossip, and ended with something softer⊠something important.
â
the first sign that something was wrong on another night was the fact that the dorm was suspiciously quiet for nine pm. you stood in the kitchen doorway, staring at the five boys sitting around the living roomâno video games. no screaming. no martin and seonghyeon arguing over absolutely nothing, just five pairs of eyes looking at you.
ââŠwhy are you all looking at me like that?â
martin immediately sat up straighter. âyn.â
âno.â
âi havenât even asked yet.â
âno.â
âplease?â
âno.â
keonho gasped dramatically. âshe knows.â
âshe always knows,â juhoon sighed.
you narrowed your eyes. âwhat do you guys want?â
the boys exchanged looks. then james finally blurted out, âthey need help. more girl talk.â
you blinked twice. â...what?â
âgirl talk,â seonghyeon repeated seriously.
âwhy? itâs still 9 pm. we have two more hours left.â
âwellâŠâ
âwhy are you asking me right now?â
âbecause youâre a girl.â
you stared. the boys stared back. you stared harder.
âthatâs the stupidest thing iâve ever heard.â
ten minutes later you were trappedâliterally trapped. theyâd dragged every cushion and beanbag into the living room and formed what looked like a hostage negotiation circle. you sat in the middle, the boys surrounding you like a group of kindergarten students.
âokay,â you sighed. âwhat exactly do you need?â
four hands shot up. james sat calmly beside you, his hand gravitating to your waist.
âoh my god.â
âme first,â keonho yelled.
âno.â
âme,â seonghyeon interrupted.
âno.â
âme!â juhoon tried, letting go of his fake nonchalance.
âno.â
martin raised his hand politely. you pointed at him. âyes.â
âsometimes girls say theyâre fine.â
âyes.â
âbut theyâre not fine.â
âyes.â
âhow do you know?â
the others immediately nodded, hanging onto your every word.Â
âa very important question,â one of them added.
âgroundbreaking research,â another said.
you rubbed your temples. âokay. usually you can tell from the tone.â
âso if she says sheâs fine?â
âmhm.â
âshe isnât fine?â
âexactly.â
â...but she said she was.â
âyes.â
âso sheâs not?â
âcorrect.â
all four boys looked absolutely horrified. âthat makes no sense.â
âit makes perfect sense.â
âit literally doesnât.â
âmartin,â you said, turning to look at him. âimagine james says heâs over losing a game of league.â
james immediately scoffed. âbaby, iâm always over it.â
âyou cried over mario kart two days ago, by the way,â juhoon pointed out helpfully.
âthat was different.â
martinâs eyes widened as the realization hit the room.
âoh.â
âohh.â
âohhhhh.â
twenty minutes later, the questions somehow got worse.
âwhatâs the difference between cute and handsome?â
âdepends.â
âon what?â
âeverything.â
âthatâs not an answer.â
âit is.â
âit absolutely isnât.â
juhoon leaned forward. âokay, okay. if a girl says your outfit is cute.â
âgood. but also, which blind girl called your skinny jeans cute?â
âshut up. what if she says youâre handsome?â
âalso good, obviously.â
âif she says youâre funny?â
âgood. even better.â
âif she says youâre annoying?â the entire group looked at seonghyeon.Â
you immediately burst out laughing. âwhy are you all looking at him?â
âbecause it happens a lot,â martin answered.
âvery frequently.â
âalmost daily.â
seonghyeon looked deeply offended. âi have fans, okay?â
âyou annoy them affectionately,â james clarified.
an hour later, the conversation had completely derailed into late-night⊠somethings.
âwould you rather date someone funny or handsome?â one of them asked.
âfunny,â you replied without hesitation
the boys froze.
âwhat?â
âfunny.â
ânot handsome?â
âi didnât say not handsome.â
âthen why funny?â
âbecause if someoneâs funny, i can look at them forever.â
the room became suspiciously silent. you looked up from your spot. they were all sitting straighter.
âstop.â
âno one said anything.â
âyouâre all thinking something.â
âno.â
âyes.â
âno.â
âyes.â
âno.â
james literally pulled out his notes app, his fingers tapping on the screen. âfunny.â
âjames, oh my god.â you hid your face in your hands.
âok, but james is unfunny and ugly. what gives, yn?â
âshut up.â
then somehow the conversation shifted to crushes. you made a mistakeâa terrible, catastrophic mistake. because the moment you casually mentioned that most girls usually remember tiny details about people they like, they all exploded again.
âwhat tiny details?â
âeverything.â
âbe specific.â
âlike favourite drinks, favourite colours, things they mention onceââ
they all looked terrified, staring at you like you were a different species. âonce?â
âyes.â
âone time?â
âyes.â
âyn.â
âhmm?â
âwomen are scary.â
âthank you.â
by midnight the boys had learned absolutely nothing, or maybe too much. you couldnât tell.Â
they were all sprawled around the living room floor, half asleep. you were resting against the sofa. juhoon was under a blanket. james was lying face-down on the carpet. martin and keonho were arguing quietly in the corner. seonghyeon was sitting beside you. the atmosphere was warm, comfortable, home.
then juhoon suddenly spoke into the quiet room. âcan i ask one last question?â
âsure.â
âdo girls actually like flowers?â
âof course.â
the boys nodded thoughtfully.
âokay.â
ânoted.â
âgood information.â
âuseful.â
then keonho looked over, his expression serious. âwhat do girls like most?â
you thought for a second, looking at their tired faces, then smiled. âhonestly?â
âyeah.â
âbeing listened to.â
the room went completely quiet.
âthatâs it?â
âpretty much.â
âno secret formula?â
âno.â
âno cheat code?â
âno.â
âno complicated mission?â
ânot really, no.â
the boys exchanged looks. then seonghyeon groaned dramatically from his spot. âthatâs so much harder.â
you laughed so hard you nearly fell off the sofa, and within seconds the others were laughing too. the sound filled the corners of the messy dormâloud, chaotic, and comfortable, exactly like every night with your five extremely stupid, extremely lovable boys.
â
one night, long after everyone shouldâve been asleep, you found yourself looking around the room. five sleepy boys. half under blankets, half asleep, still listening to each other, still talking.Â
james was tracing circles against your hand absentmindedly, martin was yawning, juhoon was asleep sitting up, and keonho was using seonghyeon as a pillow. nobody wanted to go to bed and break the spell of the evening.
âthis is probably my favourite part of being in cortis.â you smiled.
the room grew quiet. james looked down at you.
âthe fame?â
âno.â
âthe money?â
âno.â
âthen what?â
you looked around the living room, at your family, at your idiots, and smiled. âjust⊠you guys.â
james kissed the top of your head while the others grinned half-asleep like theyâd just won an award. and honestly? maybe they had.Â
because not everyone got five best friends who wanted to understand every little part of your worldâeven the parts theyâd never experience themselves. and somehow, every night, squeezed together in a messy dorm living room, they made sure you never had to carry any of it alone.Â

friday has quietly bled into saturday; a warm summer's evening having shifted into the cool, early hours of the next morning. despite this, you can hear the frat party still raging on in the distance. the low pulse of bass reverberates through the pavement, and the smell of cigarette smoke curls up towards the sky, carried across the streets by a gentle breeze that weaves it's way through the trees, unable to reach the stars.
you, however, are wholly unaware of everything but chan.
seated in his cramped backseat, your thoughts are entirely consumed by the feeling of his cock buried deep in the slick on your cunt. your skirt is bunched at your waist, your top pulled down to expose your breasts, knees digging into the seat. everything is hot and sticky, with steam fogging the windows and sweat layering your feverish skin and, normally, this would be enough to drive you insane. but right now, you're too far gone, only able to focus on feeling of pleasure overwhelming all your senses.
"c-chanâ" you can barely say his name. your words catch in your throat, pitched and wobbly as his hips piston upwards, thick cock plunging into your sopping pussy with a loud plap plap plap that resonates in the heated space. your body jolts with the force of each thrust.
you dig your nails into the leather seat of his car, right beside his head. "b-baby, slow downâ"
"fuck, i can't, sweetheart," he huffs hotly against the shell of your ear, practically breathless as he keeps his brutal pace. his hands grip the supple flesh of your ass, giving you a bruising squeeze. "you feel too good."
you whine, dropping your forehead to his shoulder. "you're so deep. iâhnghhâi can't, chan... s'too much..."
"nuh-uh," he clicks his tongue as if chiding you. "none of that. you know how to take this cock, i know you do."
you do know. but when chan gets like this, drunk on sex and high on pleasure, it makes your head spin and your thoughts blur until all you can feel is him â on you and inside you and it has your nerves so fried that you're not sure if you want to push him away or pull him closer. clearly, you have yet to push him away, despite the harshness of his thrusts.
"fuuuck," he groans, voice rough, accent thick. "you're drenched, jus' dripping down my cock like fuckin' water. can feel it on my balls."
you press your face against his neck, embarrassment burning hot across your chest and up along your neck.
"s'your fault." you mumble. "lookin' like that tonight."
his hand comes down on your ass, hard and fast, and you cry out against his flushed skin as he soothes over the blossoming ache. he can be mean, but never too mean. "my fault? this pussy was practically beggin' f'me before i even touched you."
in your defense, he had looked unfairly good. he'd picked you up that evening wearing a loose hoodie and grey sweats, a type of casual and effortless outfit that shouldn't have looked as good as it did. you'd nearly fainted when he peeled it off later that evening, when the thrum of packed bodies had generated too much heat for him to handle. and then there he was, white tank spread taut over his broad shoulders, his muscles visibly defined beneath the fabric which tapered down to fit his slim waist. every movement caused the hem to lift, revealing a sliver of smooth skin above his waistband that you stared at appreciatively. not to mention, the almost noticeable outline of his soft cock pressing against his sweats, hanging freely and heavily.
you'd struggled to keep your composure the entire time, mind blank as your eyes constantly moved from his groin to his shoulders to his biceps and back again. each time you repeated the seemingly never-ending, but not unwelcome, cycle, your underwear grew evermore slick with arousal. chan as observant as he is, hadn't missed a thing. his sharp eyes caught onto your subtle attempts to relieve the ache between your thighs, and he was thoroughly amused by your flustered response to simply his very being.
now he's got you here, after a torturously long, tension-filled night of knowing grins and suggestive touches, he's finally caved and taken you for everything you have.
"m'close," he pants, breath warm. "m'gonna cum in this pussy. gonnaâa-ah shitâm'gonna fill you up a-and fuck it into you, nice and deep.
you don't get time to fully digest his filthy words. chan slides further down the seat, planting his feet and wrapping his arms firmly around your middle to lock you in place. any response you had dies on your tongue, and you swear you see stars burst across your vision.
this new angle has the fat tip of his cock repeatedly hitting your sweet spot with ruthless precision. his balls smack heavily against your puffy clit, causing cosmic sparks to shoot down your spine.
you gasp, hands flying to grip his blonde hair, your shaky thighs pressing against him on either side. your pussy clenches around his glistening length. "o-oh, fuck!"
"there she is." chan grunts, pleased with himself, and nuzzles his nose along the underside of your jaw. he kisses his way down your neck, over the bruises beginning to blossom along your slick skin, until his lips are at your breasts. you mewl when he takes a nipple into his mouth, suckling on the already sensitive nub.
your fingers tug painfully on his blonde hair, pulling a deep chested groan from him. the action no doubt hurts, but you'll apologize later, when he's not busy fucking you like he hates you.
"don't stop," you plead, tears leaking from the corner of your eyes in a hot trail. you can feel that familiar band of tension in your abdomen, tightening with alarming speed.
chan releases your nipple with a satisfied, wet pop. he smooths a rough palm up along your spine until he grips the back of your neck and turns your face to meet his.
"come on," he murmurs encouragingly, hips losing it's steady pace. "come on baby, let me feel you, all of you. wanna feel you cumming around this dick, let go for me."
you tremble in his embrace, hands slipping from his damp hair, but you manage to find a grip on his shoulders, nails digging crescent moons into his muscles as you cry out, that taut band snapping under his guidance. you clench, hard, and he hisses against your parted lips. his hips stutter, thrusts weak and sloppy, until he uses the last of his strength to bury himself balls deep, strong thighs flush against yours. he cums in seconds, cock throbbing as a deliciously familiar warmth splatters across your inner walls.
you go practically limp in his arms, slumping forward onto his warm, bare chest, no longer gripping onto his shoulders (or his cock) like your life depends on it.
the sounds of the frat party occupy the silence between you and chan; all wordless songs and muffled cheers. you focus on taking deep breaths to clear your mind and calm your rapidly beating heart. chan's hands rub firmly along your back; from your shoulders, down the sloping curves of your body and back up, a rhythmic motion that helps ground you to reality.
you hum weakly, taking a moment to relocate your voice. "thatâthat was..."
"yeah, i know," chan soothes his hands back down and over your ass, now tender and surely bruised from his earlier antics. "fuck, i seriously love you."
you manage a breathless laugh, though it sounds more like a wheeze. "that's the post-nut clarity talking, babe."
you can feel his grin against your hairline. "whatever, i still love you."
you snort, amused, and adjust your position, laying your cheek against his chest where you can faintly hear his heart beating beneath his ribcage, fast but steady.
you let it settle before you speak. "i can't believe you weren't wearing underwear."
"no one else noticed but you," his chest rumbles with laughter.
you ignore his comment, too mortified at how easily he can read you. "you did that on purpose."
"maybe," he hums cheekily. "but surely the outcome was worth?"
"maybe," you echo.
chan pinches your side lovingly and you squirm, unable to stop yourself from smiling.
"brat," he mutters, though his lips find your forehead for a tender kiss.
you let yourself sink further into his warmth, allowing time to stretch on. eventually, you feel your eyes drooping, a wave of exhaustion washing over your body and pulling at your bones. you grow heavy in chan's arms.
"baby..." he murmurs, he shifts his weight, and you feel him twitching inside you. your brows briefly pinch together at the feeling, then you settle back in, oblivious to his restlessness.
chan tightens his arms around you, and you don't think much of it, until he rolls his hips experimentally and you feel him graze against your sensitive spot with an embarrassingly audible squelch.
"chan..." you whimper, eyes snapping open and body instinctively jolting as your pleasure spikes into slightly painful, though no less enjoyable, territory.
"what?" you can hear his smirk. "i told you i was gonna fuck this cum into you."
"i-i didn't think youânghâthat you were serious..." you bring your arms around his neck, sliding your fingers into the curls at the base of his skull, and lift your face to meet his. his plump lips are tugged up into a devious grin.
"i was more than serious, baby." he smoothes his hands under your thighs, helping you lift and drop your hips to meet his thrusts halfway. your breath hitches in your throat, fatigue fading into pleasure.
"come on, sweetheart, time for you to put in a little work, hm?"

⏠CHAN
he finds you in the kitchen wearing his hoodie, sleeves enveloping your hands. the sight almost startles him, forcing him to put down his phone and study you. he doesnât say anything at first, only watches as you stir your tea, your spoon is half-hidden in the soft fabric of his hoodie. when you finally look up, his face is pure awe. âyouâre so adorable,â he murmurs, as though afraid to disturb the moment. his voice carries quiet wonder, as if this small thing has filled some unnamed corner of his heart. he steps closer and smooths the fabric over your shoulder, his touch featherlight. âit looks better on you,â he says, smiling shyly. you laugh and he tucks his chin against the top of your head, breathing in your warmth. he holds you so tightly. possessively. lovingly. later, when you fall asleep still wearing it, he presses his hand over your heart through the fabric and whispers, âkeep it as long as you want. it feels like youâre keeping me.â
⏠MINHO
youâre padding around his apartment in one of his shirts, your hair still damp from the shower, humming to yourself. he leans against the doorway, watching with a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. âyou know,â he says, âyouâre getting awfully comfortable in my clothes.â you turn, raising a brow. âis that a problem?â he chuckles. âno. iâm just wondering when youâre moving in.â you blink up at him, half-smiling. âoh, is that an invitation?â he nods, stepping closer. âitâs more of an observation. because at this rate, half my wardrobe will already be in your closet.â you laugh, and he slips his arms around you from behind, resting his chin on your shoulder. âiâm serious,â he whispers. âi like seeing you here. like this, like you belong.â you turn in his arms, hand resting against his chest. âyou mean wearing your shirts and stealing your space?â he grins. âexactly that.â he presses a kiss to your hair and adds cheekily, âmy space would feel so empty without you, little thief.â
⏠CHANGBIN
the first time he sees you in his shirt, he goes still. his world narrows to the sight of you standing by the window, sunlight catching in your hair, fabric draping loosely over your shoulders. his lips part as if to speak, but no words come. he just looks. you tease him, waving a hand in front of his face. âyou okay?â he blinks out of his daze then smiles faintly. âyou lookâŠâ he stops, shaking his head. âno. there isnât a word for it.â he steps closer, reaching his hand out to touch you. his fingers brush the collar of the shirt, tracing where the fabric meets your skin. âitâs strange,â he says softly. âi wore this yesterday, and it was just a shirt. but on youâŠâ you laugh, and he smiles at the sound. later, when you leave it folded by his bedside, he sits there for a long time staring at itâthinking of how it looked on you, of how something ordinary became extraordinary just because it touched you.
⏠HYUNJINïżŒ
heâs sitting on the couch reading when he hears you call his name. when he looks up, his book slips from his hand. youâre standing there in his shirt, sleeves rolled, collar slightly crooked. he stands without thinking, smoothing his hair, as if he needs to be composed for this moment. âyou borrowed that?â he asks, and his tone is calm, but his eyes are bright with something softer. you nod, unsure if he likes it. he crosses the room slowly, stopping just short of you. âyouâre too precious in it,â he says quietly, fingers brushing your wrist. he hesitates, then smiles faintly. âyou know, i spend so much time trying to keep everything perfect. but youââ he gestures to you in the shirt, loose and unbuttoned at the cuffs, hair slightly messyââyou make everything perfect.â you laugh, flustered, and he looks down with a fond smile. âkeep it,â he murmurs. âiâll just have to buy more.â later, when you fall asleep still wearing it, he hugs you tightly to him, adoring your frame rising and falling in sweet, quiet perfection.ïżŒ
⏠JISUNG
he notices immediately. youâre curled up in his hoodie, the one you swore you didnât take. he crosses his arms and pretends to be stern, though that familiar shit-eating grin already tugs at his mouth. âso thatâs where it went,â he says. you look up, feigning innocence. âwhat?â he points at you dramatically. âmy favorite hoodie. stolen in cold blood.â you giggle, but before you can speak, he strides forward, scoops you up, and spins you around. âyouâre lucky you look this cute in it,â he says between huffs. your laughter fills the room, and when he sets you down on the couch, his forehead rests against yours. the teasing melts into something softer. âitâs kind of unfair,â he murmurs. âyou make my clothes look better than i ever could.â you roll your eyes, but he keeps grinning. âfine, fine,â he says, âyou win. but if youâre gonna steal my hoodie, iâm stealing you for the rest of the day.â he wraps his arms around you, tugging you closer. you sigh at him, âi never confirmed or denied, jiâ you lean your forehead against his, pouting innocently, âbut does this mean i get to keep it?â instead of responding, jisungâs hands start wandering over your shoulder, down to your waist. staring at you tenderly. when you think heâs about to kiss you, the soft traveling of his hands turns firm, sharp. the next thing you know youâre a ball of laughter and small, broken yelps as he violently tickles your sides. ribs shaking in your fit even after he stops, you sharply hit his side. the laugh still housed in your chest as you calm down. now, heâs so lucky he looks this cute, or heâd be in for some real trouble.
⏠FELIX
he comes home earlier than you expected and freezes at the doorway. youâre sitting cross-legged on the couch, scrolling through your phone, one of his old t-shirts hanging loosely over you. his breath catches. itâs such a small thing, but it hits him like sunlight after rain. âthatâs mine,â he says, laughing softly. you nod, teasing. âyeah. you left it in my drawer, remember?â he rubs the back of his neck and grins, flustered. âi didnât think iâd ever see it on you.â he looks away, the sight feels too intimate to take in all at once. heâs smiling, but his hands twitch a little, uncertain what to do. you walk over and tug at the shirtâs hem. looking up at him, âyou donât like it?â, you ask teasingly. he meets your eyes, and whispers. âno. i love it. i just⊠donât know what to do with how much i love it.â he laughs at himself, embarrassed, and you laugh too. he hides his red cheeks behind a hand but you can see just how flustered youâve made him. stepping up to him, you gently move his hand away from his face, placing a swift kiss right where it had been, then placing his hand back. he turns to you grinning, âhow are you so cute? iâm going to have a heart attack.â
⏠SEUNGMIN
you wear his hoodie one quiet morning, thinking nothing of it. he sees you and freezes. thereâs something in his eyes that wasnât there before. he steps closer, brushing a hand against your sleeve as if to prove youâre real. âhey, thatâs not yours,â he says, and his voice is small. the obvious statement making you want to giggle at him. you smile. âit was cold.â he swallows hard. âyou should keep it. please, i mean.â he laughs under his breath, but it sounds like a confession. âitâs stupid, but i need to see you wearing that all the time. youâre adorable. perfect, even.â you try to bite back the smile forming on your lips, âyouâre right itâs stupidâ. he scoffs and walks over to you, eyes never tearing from you clad in his clothes. even though you think heâs being cheesy, you take his hand, gently, and tell him youâll wear it until it falls apart. that makes him smile so sweetly and gently. later, when he hugs you, he tugs at the fabric again, whispering, âdonât give it back yet. not ever, maybe.â he doesnât mean the hoodie. he means thisâthe nearness, the safety, the warmth you both carry now that youâre together. you lean against him, âi wasnât planning on it, stupid.â the sound of the two of you laughing fills the air.
⏠JEONGIN
youâre wearing his old hoodie, the oversized one with the fading logo he refuses to throw out. he walks in, squints at you dramatically, and points like a detective mid-case. âaha. the culprit!â you grin, âi have no idea what youâre talking about.â he gasps theatrically. âa liar and a thief.â he throws a small throw pillow at you, shouting, âput your hands in the air! weâve caught you red-handed.â you dodge and giggle at his antics, that sweet sound is all it takes for his fake outrage to melt. he crosses the room and pulls you into a hug, his laughter muffled against your hair. âyouâre ridiculous,â you tell him, and he hums in agreement. âyeah, but iâm ridiculous for you.â he rocks you gently, pressing his chin to your head. âyou know,â he murmurs, âif you wanted more of my clothes, you could just ask.â you tilt your head up, smiling. âoh, could i?â he nods, grinning. âin fact, take them all. i want to see you in every hoodie i own. scientific purposes.â âwhat kind of scientific experiment are you running?â you run your hands through his hair. you both laugh, but when he looks down at you again, his smile softens. âwell, so far... that one suits you most. maybe because it smells like me. or maybe because it looks like home.â

GROWING UP, YOU NEVER FELT LEFT OUT OR ALONE.
Why?
because you had the closest, sweetest best friend by your side, stuck to your hip. Jungwon and you were practically inseparable.
you never had a problem finding a partner for a project or a game, to hold your bag when your shoulders hurt, to wipe your tears when your mom scolded you.
no matter how much you teased him and how much he pouted at you, he couldnât leave your side.
but it was like just over one summer, with him already growing 3 inches over you, his voice suddenly turning deeper, how he had grown into his features and learnt how to dress, it was like you didnât know how to act in front of your own best friend.
in the library on an ordinary lunch break, he towered over you from behind, a hand hovering on your hip as he chuckled and looked down at you.
Jungwon wasnât stupid, he could tell the pink hue on your cheeks wasnât just from the summer heat.
âShorty~â he cooed, grabbing the book from the shelf that you were struggling to get.
god.. these days, he was getting too cocky for his own good.
on the days where you were too spent from school, heâd walk you home with his hand around your back, bringing your arm to wrap around his shoulder.
even if he had been so tired from dance practise, he couldnât just leave you be.
âah.. youâre so heavy..â he groaned, setting your sleepy figure down on the bed.
your eyes, half open, found his figure hovering over yours as he laid you down. jungwon carefully pulled your covers over your figure, before he pulled back to leave your room.
until he felt a gentle grip, tugging on his wrist back. âStay..â
he froze, standing above your bed for about 10 seconds. but before you knew it, you felt a dip by your mattress, as he sat in front of the laying figure.
jungwon looked away from you, and shyly muttered something that sounded like âI wasnât going anywhere.â
or other times at lunch when youâd be a little messy. he knew your habit of eating and not noticing dressing or some sauce was left on your lip.
âTsk.. youâre so clumsy.â He said, as he wipes off the sauce from your lip. this time, youâre the one who freezes in your spot.
and jungwon seems to realise the weight of his actions too, hand gently resting on your jaw as he wipes the sauce off your lip. his eyes widen, you turn red, and you both look away and pretend nothing happened.
you couldnât look at him straight anymore, pretending like you werenât affected by looking down and clearing your throat.
He talked to you about his dreams, you talked to him about your lack of. you came to every dance showcase, brought snacks after practise.
âA stage that big.. could you imagine? just to watch one person dance..â Jungwon muttered, sprawled out on your bed as you try to tune your new hand-me-down guitar your aunt gave you.
you looked up at him and chuckled, âDonât forget about me when youâre on that stage.â
Jungwon scoffs, getting up as he watches your fingers press absentmindedly on the chords youâve learnt this week.
âDonât be stupid. first off, I could never get that famous. And second,â Jungwon trails off, hesitating to admit something. âSecond.. how could I ever forget you?â
your gaze softens for a moment, tearing your eyes from the guitar to look up at him. itâs the first time in 16 years where the tension isnât just snarky remarks and teasing, but it actually feels like something.
Jungwon purses his lips, dimples on full view as he looks away shyly. âIâll look for you first in the audience. I promise.â
âDo I get free backstage passes?â You add, looking up at him with a grin that makes his stomach do this weird flip thatâs been occurring too many times these days.
he rolls his eyes, but a soft smile rests on his face. âCmon, youâre like.. vvvip.â
Sounds about right.
âOk good. I like being vvvip.â
you know you fell for him that day. when he just stayed over, singing along to random songs you learnt. and you didnât miss the way his gaze lingered at you, the way he seemed eager to listen to the new songs you learnt.
he couldnât go a day without talking to you.
Jungwon would wait under your house to walk to school together, fingers just barely touching. he got upset when you didnât show up after his dance practices to pick him up, but got all giddy whenever you said youâd treat him to his favourite rice cakes as compensation.
he used to smile at you at the little hint of an inside joke, poke or gently nudge your leg under tables just to tease you.
There were even times where you let yourself be vulnerable to him. he was like.. your person?
âI donât think I have a dream.â you blurted out tiredly, gazing over the city lights.
âThatâs a blessing in disguise. People who have dreams are constantly worried about not achieving them.â Jungwon murmurs back after a pause, still looking at the clear night sky above him, lying down behind you.
âEasy for you to say. Youâre the most driven person I know.â You scoff out, fingers fiddling with the ears of his stuffed animal on your lap, and turning your head back to look at him.
a chuckle escaped his lips, just thinking about his dream. jungwon was in love with dancing, and although a risky choice, that passion made you question whether you should be feeling the same thing. like you should have a dream you were that passionate about.
his eyes sparkled for gods sakes, and you didnât know how he even managed to do that. how Jungwonâs eyes looked so doe-like and sparkly, brighter than all the city lights in front of you.
you sigh again and rest your back against the concrete, laying next to him. His eyes travel to your face, tilting his head to the side as his eyes soften, and his teasing smile fades away.
Maybe you werenât joking this time.. but it was hard to focus on how sad you were when you looked so pretty being it.
Is it a surprise he thinks youâre beautiful? Maybe it was, because never in his life would he expect to fall for you, you were only his best friend. Lines shouldnât be crossed.
but you canât really control it, can you?
no matter how hard he tried to fight it, jungwon couldnât stop the way his heart beat just a little faster when he saw you this close. He wonders if itâs even your beauty he stares at, or if itâs also the closeness.
The knowledge that nobody else has seen you like this, and nobody has seen him like this. The feeling of being in your own world.
âJungwon..?â You finally whispered, tilting your head to your side.
âMm..â You didnât expect to catch him staring at you again. Usually, heâd look away before you caught on, or clear his throat and blink away. This time he didnât.
He looks at you as if he doesnât want to look at anything else. Not just your eyes, his gaze travels to your shoulders, your hands on his stuffed animal, your hair that drapes over his pillow, that he knows is going to smell like your shampoo now.
â..some dreams arenât that clear. youâre just hearing people talk about their dream jobs.. or how rich they want to be.â he whispers.
you tear your eyes away from his, because his gaze feels too strong to hold.
âIsnât that all there is to life? Work is life..â you chuckle dryly, looking back up at the sky.
Jungwon looks down for a second, and a silence envelopes the atmosphere. âYouâre the last person I thought would say that.â
âI guess Iâve just become a bit negative.. I just feel like Iâm lagging behind everyone.â you sigh again. but Jungwon doesnât focus on how different you seem, his hand just finds yours.
your breath hitched, not even realising your anxious movements he stopped. his delicate fingers just gently on yours, like heâs trying to stop you from fidgeting. âYouâre not lagging behind..â
âIâm envious of you.. I think I have too many dreams, and if I donât meet them, Iâd.. I think Iâd crash out.â He laughs, lighthearted in his expression for the first time since the conversation.
Your eyes find his, but for the first time, he isnât initiating eye contact, he doesnât even look at you. Still, you see the faint blush on his cheeks, and his touch, with his gaze, lingers on your hand.
âBut.. some dreams arenât just materialistic. I.. I think..â heâs stalling, because he knows heâs not just comforting you. heâs confessing something he doesnât even know. âwell in my case.. my best dream is the one right in front of me.â
your breath hitches again at his words. you want to believe what youâre thinking, but you wonder if thatâd even be possible.
You being his dream? Really? still, your hand reciprocates his touch, thumb just gently grazing the back of his hand.
you look down at your shared contact, and Jungwon finally looks up at you. he looks at you only when you look away, when you donât notice. he notices your lashes low as you gaze at his hand, how your voice is soft as you hum back, your breath steadier.
his response is probably not the most practical, reasonable answer you wanted, but it puts you at ease for just a moment. and it makes the mood suddenly more intimate, although you both donât do anything else.
you realised two things that day.
one, that your crush on Jungwon was getting more dangerous, the more you thought about the possibilities that he might like you too.
and two, that you found a dream. a real goal. it had something to do with Jungwonâs dream.
but sometimes, you find yourself not understanding him at all. and you didnât want to believe it was true, but it became so when you both started senior year.
âWhereâre we eating?â you hummed, hands in your pockets as you walked up to his desk.
Jungwon raised an eyebrow and looked back at you. âuh.. I brought lunch from home.â he said, sounding a little avoidant.
but you shrugged. âSo? Just come with me to get my food.â you said nonchalantly, since he always came off campus with you to get lunch.
but this time, you thought you caught a grimacing expression on his face.
âI canât.. Iâm having lunch with the guys. Iâll just see you in class, alright? Bye..â he dismissed, sighing softly and walking away.
your eyebrows raised at his sudden mood, blinking in surprise.
Oh?
Maybe he just had a bad mood today..
or maybe you had done something?
you guessed it wasnât the first option when you saw him laughing cheerfully with the new female transfer student.
âJungwon!â You called out, after one night where you waited for him after dance practise.
He didnât ask you to, he never had to. And you knew it wouldâve been awkward considering he had been high-key ignoring you for the past few days. With his dance bag in hand, he rolls his eyes and shakes his head.
âOh.â He sighs when he notices. And you swear you hear him utter âyou again..â under his breath.â
âWhat? Donât you wanna go.. get ice cream or something?â you say, acting like everything is ok.
but the knit in his eyebrows, the way he has to close his eyes and take a breath before speaking up, like heâs frustrated, sends you another message.
âY/n. Stop this.. stop. Stop waiting on me.â Jungwon says, making you pause again. âWe donât have to be around each other all the time. I have my own life, ok? that doesnât include you.â He stutters, but doesnât stop.
âAnd itâs.. itâs embarrassing to have you fuss over me. Itâs not like weâre dating..â
your blood ran cold. he was making it seem like you were the pushy one, like he didnât embolden you to act on your feelings. it was as if he knew you like him, and was using your sensitivity to his advantage.
âBut.. we donât act like that.â You tried to argue, voice cracking slightly as tears pooled your eyes. you hated fighting with him, the one person you trusted most in the world. and you hated being the sensitive one, not the one to respond to him when he was being vulnerable.
âWe do.. And itâs getting old. And frankly annoying.â
Jungwon runs a hand through his hair, sighing like.. almost like youâre a minor nuisance he needs to get over. You looked down, fighting back the tears that threatened to run down your cheeks.
Jungwon sighs, glancing down at your teary eyes. Something in his heart twists, but he pushes it aside. âSorry, ok? Donât cry.. just.. accept the fact that I donât want to be as close to you as we were anymore, alright?â
And when he didnât stop and drop his bag, or wrap his arms around you, whispering soft apologies, and instead started walking away? you realised that maybe he really didnât feel the same.
ii heather - paper hearts - every breath you take
CHAEWON GIGGLED AND NUDGED YOUR ARM, showing her phone to you.
"You and jungwon?! You two were childhood friends?" She spoke, making your eyes widen at the kiddy photo on her phone.
"How'd you find out!?" you scoffed, trying to grab at her phone.
but she ignored your question, pointing and chuckling at the photo she caught from your momâs Facebook.
"Why is he wearing a Cinderella dress? Awhh! did you dress him up~?" Chaewon raised her eyebrow and cooed again.
You rolled your eyes and went back to picking at your cold school lunch. "No.." you muttered.
Chaewon wasnât as oblivious as Jungwon. she noticed your dismissive attitude.
she immediately cleared her throat and turned her phone off, as she started talking about something else. âSo, you gonna come with me to Jaehyunâs party?â
But as she tried to distract you, she noticed how you looked up and your eyes almost sparkled.
Chaewon furrowed her eyebrows and looked in your direction, until she realised why you were staring.
The same guy she was talking about, Yang Jungwon..
you looked up and your gaze followed his movements as he walked to his table with his friends, laughing and talking.
You remember how you'd be the one making him laugh.
the one sitting next to him during lunch, the cause of his pretty smile â not his douchebag friends.
you'd be the one he looked at and listened to intently, with sparkly eyes when talking â not the girl under his arm who kept giggling and blushing.
he chuckled and leaned close to her, whispering something in her ear.
you didnât care, obviously. why would you care? why would you care about what he said? why it made Sullyoon giggle and turn even more red. why she nudged his chest playfully. why jungwon grinned and giggled back.
why he bit his lip, his eyes gazed at her pretty, gorgeous smile.
the way he looked at you when he used to tease you.
Chaewon saw how you let out a little sigh and your eyes dropped. god, they were gross. your gaze turned bitter, picking at your food harshly.
she softly grabbed your shoulder and made you look away from him. "Hey.. Sunwoo and I are going to Jaehyunâs birthday next week, you should come too!" Chaewon said in a chipper tone.
You looked back at her and blinked, distracting yourself from him.
"Sure, I guess.." you chuckled dryly and looked down, continuing to pick at your food.
and It seemed that jungwon sensed the two laser beams from your eyes staring into the side of his head. as he looked up, tearing his gaze away from sullyoon and to you instead..
He gulped and scowled at you, why were you everywhere he went, even when he tried to keep running away?
you think youâre being cursed when youâre assigned cleaning-classroom duty with Jungwon of all people today.
how you had to stand and watch as he kissed Sullyoonâs cheek goodbye, reassuring her that heâd see her after school.
he doesnât miss the scoff you let you as you put your bag down. he doesnât look away from your form as you sigh through your nose, chin up in a walk past him that looks arrogant.
âWhatâs your problem?â Jungwon wants to say. âJealous much? Thought I couldnât find better?â
as you stand behind the teachers table, grabbing a pair of plastic gloves. Jungwon swears to stay silent, not wanting to open up Pandoraâs box with you again.
âYah.. Y/n!â Sunwoo says, outside the door of the classroom, sweat clinging to his forehead and panting, his school bag slung lazily over his shoulder.
âSunwoo? What are you doing here?â you mutter, putting down the cleaning supplies in your hands as he walks up to you.
Jungwon canât help but watch from the side, gaze lingering for a second too long.
âHere. You left these in my bag earlier.â Sunwoo takes a pack of some medicine, to which Jungwon knows is for your allergies.
because he used to take care of you, remind you to take medication.
you gasped, grabbing the pack immediately. âOh my god, I love you. I thought I lost theseâI was just going to waste some money and buy new ones..â
Sunwoo scoffs, flicking your forehead, to which you scowl and rub the spot to soothe the pain. âIdiot.. Iâll be waiting at the cafe alright? We can eat before we go.â He says, head slightly tilted.
Jungwon wonders how comfortable you two couldâve been, to the point where Sunwoo is allowed to fuss over you.
âYour treat?â you coo sweetly, and the tone just makes him feel sick, a bit heavy in his chest.
but Sunwoo chuckles and rolls his eyes. âWhen is it ever not..â
When Sunwoo leaves, Jungwon finally lets out the huffing exhale that heâs been holding, and it catches your attention.
you raise an eyebrow, âWhatâs your problem?â you saw the words he wanted to say bitterly earlier.
Jungwon raises his eyebrows, standing in front of you with the teachers desk between you two. âNothing.â He says, almost emotionless.
âDoesnât sound like nothing.â His jaw tightens, you catch that. but Jungwon doesnât reply, he doesnât want to risk saying something stupid.
the silence is loud, as you collect the random pieces of your trash your classmates dropped.
âHowâs yoojung?â You spoke up about his sister, reminding him of how close you were to his family. And he cringed at the domestic knowledge.
âFine.â he replies dryly.
The air grows awkward, as you two move around the classroom silently, picking up trash, sweeping the floor, cleaning the black boards. â..Guess we better hurry up then. Your date is waiting outside, isnât he?â Jungwon says finally, as you both almost finish up cleaning.
You knit your brows, glancing down at the floor in confusion. âYou mean Sunwoo?â
âOh, is that his name?â Jungwon rolls his eyes, with a sarcastically sweet tone. and you canât help but scoff, because Sunwoo and Jungwon have been in the same this whole year. Jungwon was doing the ultimate douchebag move, pretending he didnât know.
âAre you serious? Thatâs your problem?â
âI have no problem.â he huffs.
âYour problem is me having a friend whoâs a guy that isnât you?â You say in an accusatory tone, almost like a statement rather than a question.
Jungwon feels his blood boil. with jealousy? with the rising tension of this argument? he doesnât know. âMy only problem is with you.â he scoffs, but shows a flash of regret immediately when he notices your confused and wilted expression.
your grip loosens on your bag strap, as your eyes soften a little. but they immediately harden again, eyebrows knitted in frustration.
but instead of questioning him, you grab your bag again, and head out the door. you donât want to unpack this baggage anymore.
Jungwonâs expression stiffens, holding his bag strap in the middle of the classroom like an idiot. Of course youâre running again. Youâre always leaving, and heâs somehow always there to see you leaving him.
This time, youâre not alone. Outside, itâs Sunwooâs car that youâre getting into. And Jungwonâs eyes canât seem to look away, even when his girlfriend enters the classroom all chipper.
iii. so far away - we canât be friends - the one that got away
JAEHYUNS HOUSE WAS A MESS, as the fresh air from outside was immediately drowned out by the suffocating atmosphere, students dancing, singing out nostalgic songs, a few bottles popped.
âOuf- câmere..â sunwoo says, taking off his jacket while grabbing onto your hand. both of your eyes narrow as you escape the strangling party air, while Chaewon blends in like itâs her second home.
with a sigh, you both sit down at the kitchen counter, next to a few other people you donât know. you know enough to recognise theyâre not apart of your school, probably college students.
knowing Myung Jaehyun and his crazy social circle, he probably knew these bad-influencing kids doing drugs in the corner or taking more beer cans than they needed out of the fridge.
Two of the said college girls, whom you recognise from another party years ago, approach you both, passing you two shot glasses like itâs nothing.
You scoffed at the speed of the first alcoholic offer, while Sunwoo grabs the cup fast as he can.
suddenly, ningningâs eyes brighten up at the door. âOh, sullyoon!â ningning exclaims, waving her hand to call her over.
The name she calls out sends a chill down your spine. because you know who she came with. and sure enough, there she is, with Jungwonâs arm around her.
funnily enough, sheâs wearing the same jacket you got for him for his 15th birthday. (where you begged for your mom to pay for, because you knew how much he wanted it)
Sunwoo noticed immediately. His wide eyes turned low, as he followed your gaze to the couple arriving to the house.
Jungwon was smiling and laughing with his friends. Holding her hand like it belonged there. was this really the same guy that made your chest feel like it was too heavy to stand up right now? to make you feel so hollow inside?
you hate how your eyes burn, but canât pull away from the sight of his arm around her, how he introduces her to all his friends, and how they all compliment her.
because she was so fucking perfect, wasnât she? so perfect that jungwon risked your friendship over her.
in this life, she was the one that got him. or rather, he was the one that chose her. and she didnât even have to try. because jungwon wanted to kiss her, to dote on her and dance with her, show her off to all his friends.
and he still got shy, all red and giggly whenever someone teased him about his new girlfriend, like the old Jungwon.
but in another life? maybe you could be his girl. Heâd actually choose you. maybe jungwon wouldnât be ashamed of you.
he wouldnât have to be the one that got away.
the bitter taste of the shot of whatever burns your throat, as you gulp it down without even thinking. something to numb that hollow pain.
Everyone sings along to So Far Away over the speakers, and it makes your ears cringe the way everyone is trying to sing along to jungkookâs voice. but it all faded away when your eyes trail to Jungwonâs pretty smile again. the way his eyes crinkled. how endearing he looked.
the blend of sharp raps and the male humming adlibs in the background make you feel lost, like Jungwon is this being thatâs just unreachable.
Everything feels overstimulating. you canât even focus, and sunwoo hates that you canât even hum along to the music. from you yapping about how you want suga to rap right by your ear, to not being able to enjoy the song.
âCome on, lightweight.â He sighs, trying to squeeze in some humour to your already weakening mind.
Itâs nearing midnight, the partyâs dwindled down from hours before when you first came.
Somehow, you find yourself sitting between Sunwoo and Chaewon in a circle of people from your school, including the infuriating couple in front of you.
they didnât really do much to be annoying, not too much with the pda or clinginess. but it was almost like they were trying to piss you off.
like there was no way he was whispering something in her ear, even nibbling a little, making her giggle and push him away, while he pulled back, not to just piss you off, right?
you think youâre delusional, but the way he glances at you as he smirks and pulls away.. thatâs got to be intentional.
look what Iâm doing without you, itâs like heâs saying. even though you donât know why you did wrong.
An innocent game of truth or drink, Jaehyun suggested.
After a few drinks, a few spilled secrets, (and a few glares to the boy in front of you) youâre leaning against Sunwooâs shoulder. a little tipsy, a little droopy. and a lot emotional.
it got annoying to see Jungwonâs hands interlacing Sullyoonâs. the way everyone immediately accepted her and laughs at her jokes, or called her cute, to which Jungwon proudly smiled.
his friends never liked you much. it seems that it wasnât only him that who found a replacement for you.
You didnât focus a lot much on what was happening in the room. Chaewon kissed a random girl as part of a dare, another guy took his first ever shot, a girl was on her phone, not socialising and probably wanting to leave.
âAlright, hereâs a deep one. When was the last time you hurt, or got hurt by someone you really cared about?â Someone asks, a truth or drink question directed at jungwon.
he stiffens a little
and you think youâre going crazy when you see him glancing at you.
âLast time I got hurt? Hm..â he pretends to think. âI guess when my ex-best friend and I started to drift apart..â he says with a casual expression, like itâs a thing of the past.
and you notice how everyone looks impressed at how âbravely healedâ he was, and all it does is make you want to throw up.
âI had to cut them off. They got a bit too.. hm- obsessive and clingy?â
ok, now you really wanted to throw up.
he lets out a little scoff, a faint smirk on his lips. and you swear he looks at you again. âBut I guess I realised I never cared about that person anyway. I never will.â
the room goes silent for a moment, before some people coo in admiration.
âThatâs right.. people like that donât deserve attention anyway.â Jaehyun speaks up, backing up Jungwon.
Meanwhile, Sunwoo pauses in discomfort.. Jake and sunghoon look around, laughing and clearing their throats nervously.
Chaewon joins in on the majority reaction of admiration, but furrows her eyebrows when she tries to put two and two together.
âYouâre so cool, jungwon~â another guy says, patting his back, as he goes on a side rant about his obsessive ex girlfriend, while Jungwon smirks with a little chuckle.
but you couldnât even look at him without hearing the venom laced in his tone again.
never cared about you. never would.
18 years of friendship, it never mattered to him.
you canât help but wonder what you did to make him so bitter? to despise you the way he did.
to the point where Sullyoon was in your position, grazing his thigh and smiling at him, both out of comfort and like she was proud of him.
to the point where he was saying he never cared about you.
âSorry.. whereâs the bathroom?â you whispered, awkwardly excusing yourself from the group and clutching your stomach, acting like you had a stomach issue.
Jungwonâs eyes follow your figure. for a second, a hint of guilt flashes through his eyes. maybe he took it too far.
but that canât erase the pain he felt from you all those months before. This was your fault, not his. he shouldnât be feeling care for you the way he did anymore.
jungwon doesnât allow his heart to feel heavy, or the sweat to cling onto his forehead. he doesnât even allow himself to think of how he used to smile with you, or ruffle your hair and wipe your tears.
when you reach an empty space, you shakily try to breathe in, fanning yourself to calm down.
Chaewon comes following you, without a word as she leaves the group.
âHey.. whatâs wrong?â you can hear her slurred voice, obviously intoxicated, but the sincerity is clear.
you look back at her, putting on a smile, as you quickly cover your teary eyes. but you couldnât hide the involuntary sniffle.
âOh, nothing. I just.. little stomachache.â
Chaewon furrows her brows, hearing your voice crack. âY/n?â She gasps when she sees your red eyes, immediately wiping away the tears that fall.
she doesnât say anything. she just wraps her arms around your shoulders, brushing your hair gently. you donât say anything either.
It feels too awkward to admit why you feel this way. youâve only told Sunwoo over a drunken night anyway.
âYouâve got to tell me why youâre crying tomorrow. Iâm too drunk to remember anything right now.â Chaewon says, making you laugh at the sudden admission.
pulling back, you nod. âMhm.. Iâll tell you all about it.â
âI didnât know.. you went through that..â Sullyoon says back in the group, an innocent smile on her face as she rubs the back of his hand with her thumb.
it snaps Jungwon out of his trance, as he chuckles, acting all high and mighty.
Of course she doesnât know. She didnât know his past, she didnât know his future. Sullyoon was only there for the present. maybe he should give her the benefit of the doubt, the only had been dating for a month.
you knew him since diapers, and what he dreamed of doing till he grew too old to walk. you were there for his and he thought youâd be there for his future. maybe the main character for it.
but you didnât know the present, what kind of person he was now.
and Jungwon liked that. he didnât want you knowing him anymore.
he didnât want Sullyoon knowing what you did either. he didnât want her to know about his past with you, she didnât have to know about his regrets. but the thought of her knowing about his future, his dreams of dancing, the thought loomed over his head.
Jungwon tried to ignore the holes Sunwoo is glaring into his head right now, as he smirked hesitantly and nodded, his grip loosening on Sullyoonâs hand.
iv. sweet - apocalypse - better for you
THE NEXT DAY PASSES LIKE A BLUR. Jaehyunâs sister offered you a ride home, after you managed to escape from that stupid game secretly from the back exit.
Sunwoo had been sending you text after text, not asking if you were ok. He already knew the answer to that one.
âIâll stop by tomorrow morning with your favourite snacks, ok? Chaewon will come too. Donât feel bad over what that jerk said, you donât need him to care about you anyway.â
you wake up to a stream of reassuring messages, talking shit about Jungwon, while talking about you like youâre the only girl in the world.
but you couldnât stop watching the videos, all the selfies and photos you took with jungwon, reminiscing over how sweet he was with you.
the photo of the flowers he got you when you cried over getting stood up on your first date.
the video of him with a dog filter on, just a short clip of him and his friend, an update he sent you randomly with the text, âIâm at karaoke right now~â
(you didnât even ask what he was doing, but he for some reason, liked to pull on your heart strings an send you random updates throughout the day)
your old text messages, videos he recorded of you doing silly things with his cackling laughter in the background.
Although your head is throbbing, your heart feels ache worse than you ever have. youâre conscious enough to know what youâre doing, just breaking yourself down more.
when they arrive at your house, Chaewon beelines for your bed, sunglasses perched on her nose to cover how hungover she is. She makes a quick apology, saying she really cares for you, but needs to lay down.
âSo.. tell me what happened. Because why does Sunwoo know and I donât??â Chaewon pouts, reaching up to cup your cheek and slapping it affectionately. You roll your eyes, but her antics make you laugh as you push her hand away, the mattress dipping below you when you sit down next to her.
Chaewon reacts at every single little detail as you explain. From the cute stories you had with Jungwon as kids, to how your relationship was about to blossom into a childhood friend's romance story, only for him to stab you in the heart and suddenly give you the cold shoulder.
âNo fucking way.. I couldâve sworn he had feelings for you.â Chaewon murmured, her head on your lap now. âThatâs why the whole school was shocked when he started getting close to Sullyoon.â
and your stomach stirs again.
all you can do is gulp down, taking a breath before you say something stupid.
âThat fucker doesnât deserve you anyway.â Sunwoo says bitterly, smacking his lips like a nagging parent. âNever trusted him.â
âBut why would he do that? Itâs kind of stupid, isnât it? Heâs got to have a reason.â Chaewon speaks up again.
but you donât want to look back anymore. you want to say, âthatâs what Iâm saying!â but you feel like the energy has been zapped out of you. âI donât know..â
while Sunwoo, he doesnât want to indulge into the past. Heâs dealt with you going through all the stages of grief except acceptance.
âStop pouting.. Do you know how many times I struggle not to laugh when you cry?â Sunwoo says, before getting interrupted with a pillow hurled to his face.
At least that day you didnât cry like you thought you would. Chaewon and Sunwoo were entertaining, and you were glad for that, because it distracted you from your âthe one that got awayâ heart break.
you didnât even go on your secret account to stalk Jungwonâs profile. (because of course, he blocked you.)
they sang songs with you, the new ones you learnt on your guitar, like the way Jungwon used to do, except your heart wasnât fluttering with every glance or touch.
You laughed more than you thought you would, singing nostalgic songs, with Sunwoo and Chaewon fighting over whose elaborate performance was more dramatic and worthy to go on X Factor.
You all sang along to Try Again too many times to count, as you strummed dramatically, driven by laughter and emotion. Chaewon and Sunwoo didnât really match d.ear or jaehyunâs level of vocals, but the smile was engraved on your face at this point from smiling.
you were laughing, actually laughing, watching Sunwoo and Chaewon sing their hearts out, it made everything different. the tears forming in your eyes werenât from missing Jungwon, but from laughter, real happiness.
They come to your house like a ritual now. You tried to ignore Jungwon the best you could at school, avoiding him or Sullyoon, or even Jake or Sunghoon like the plague. you donât need to see Jungwon and Sullyoon all over each other, because apparently their honeymoon phase was still going strong.
âOh? Whatâs this little thing~?â Chaewon coos, taking out a piece of paper with some writing. You barely pay attention to her, tuning your guitar.
That is until.. she starts reading it out.
âAll of the city lights, never shine as bright as your eyes~â your eyes widen immediately, as you drop your guitar back to your mattress and reach for the sheet of lyrics. âYah- Stop!â
Sunwoo looks up at you two, pulling up his phone to record the moment with a little chuckle.
Chae giggles, running around your little room, jumping up on your bed to continue reading the lyrics. âDonât wanna leave you anymore! Iâm tired of loving from afar- and.. never being where you are?â she trails off.. realising what youâre talking about.
âStop looking at him like that.â Chaewon chuckles, nudging your side as you wait for Jungwon, whoâs at the lunch line, bangs brushed just above his eyes, a bit tousled and messy.
his blazer makes his shoulders look a bit broader and more intimidating, but his smile making him look too adorable not to stare.
Oh yeah, and Jakeâs next to him.
âLike what..â
âLike you want to run over there and kiss the living shit out of him.â
you roll your eyes. Although youâre still struggling to hide your growing feelings, youâre getting better at pretending when youâve gotten caught. âYour brain works really weirdly..â
âOk romeo.. loving from afar? You know that never works right..â Chaewon sounds amused, sheâs smirking.
âYeah, and thatâs not what this is.â
âHey! I got you your juice~â Jungwon coos, sitting next to you like he belongs there.
âOh! Thank you..â you trail off, eyes and voice immediately softening by default.
Chaewon scoffs, meanwhile Jake munched on his own meal like it was nobodyâs business, not a juice box or even a âhelloâ for her in sight.
maybe you were right, she thinks. youâre not loving from afar. You both were doing it right in front of each other, loving each other so obviously, but too blind to notice.
Sunwoo stops recording, pausing in confusion, meanwhile she continues reading. But you quickly snatch the piece of paper from her. âWhat?â Sunwoo whines.
A scoff escapes Chaewonâs lips, âY/n!â
âItâs nothing! Itâs just some.. random lyrics I wrote down.â you crumple up the paper, but she reaches her arms out, trying to grab it. âWow, Iâm being left out again? Fake friââ Sunwoo deadpans.
âShe wrote a song about Jungwon!â
âNo I didnât!â your argument gets you a bit distracted, and Chaewon manages to grab the lyric scrap.
âOkâ âso many things Iâd rather hear than fight, so for now itâs goodbyeâ? âYou know the truth better than anyone else, You claim you donât care, when I need you the mostâ? Is that not supposed to be about Jungwon!?â
you roll your eyes, burying your head in your hands when you hear your lyrics out loud for real. Sunwoo throws his phone down to the bed as he sits next to Chaewon, reading the lyrics.
âI thought we were healing you! Forgetting about that jerk!â Chaewon says. âDamn, these are pretty good..â Sunwoo seems to ignore her words, to which she smacks his arm in retaliation.
you sigh and roll your eyes, falling back to the bed. âI wrote the latest lyric like 2 weeks ago after the party. It's old news. Itâs basically trash..â
âOh yeah? Then why is it not in the trash? Why is it sitting out here? Waiting to be sung?â Chaewon coos.
Yeah, why wasnât it in the trash? It should have been. You shouldnât have been singing along to it last night, writing and erasing more lyrics. âY/n, i am throwing thisââ Chae sighs, shaking her head, as she stands up.
But Sunwoo is quick to grab it. âWait, hold on.. Y/n this is actually goodâhow come youâve never shown us your songwriting?â Sunwoo looks down at you, the corners of his lips rising a little.
âIt was.. itâs just a little project, itâs not something special.â you stutter, a bit surprised and embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Chaewon scoffs at Sunwooâs compliments. âYeah, and I donât want to hear an emotional song about a back-stabbing bastard.â
you canât hide a smirk at her words, but Sunwoo ignores it, pulling your arms to sit you up. âCome on! Play it for us!â
âNo, throw it away for us!â Chaewon immediately interrupted, making Sunwoo roll his eyes again. âY/n, forget about Jungwon. This is great stuff, really. And youâve got a great voice!â
great stuff was a stretch. maybe it was just Sunwoo sensing your overwhelming emotion in the lyrics. Chaewon sighs, grabbing her jacket and keys. âOh god.. I have to go to my tutor but Y/n? Forget that song! Trust me, throwing those lyrics will be worth it.â
you think sheâs right, you want her to be right. because you really want to put these lyrics from months ago past you.
when she finally leaves, Sunwoo pats the space on the bed in front of him, while he sits on your desk chair. âCome on, just play once?â
you donât even know what you want. you gaze at the sheet again, a crumpled piece of paper with few words scribbled with pencil, over erased markings of lyrics you thought didnât sound right. (or expressed your story right)
You had sung this song almost every other night. Why? because it was set in one of those âin another lifeâ scenarios.
The song â without a title yet â talked about a couple, a real couple, who had separated, speaking from the point of view of the partner who still yearned for their lover. but in this song, it seemed like you were singing to someone who wanted you back, like you were the one that left and were coming back.
It didnât feel genuine to sing this to a real audience. It was more like a private thing you had in your own world. âItâs not even finished yet..â you murmured, pouting just a little as you stare at your fidgeting fingers. You remembered how Jungwon would place his hand over them, calming you down.
âThen just a verse. Or the chorus? any part thatâs done. Câmon, Iâll even make a beat.â His teeth caged his bottom lip, patting his lap like a drum while beatboxing (and failing to do so).
you chuckle at his attempt to get you to sing, but your hands find your guitar despite your hesitance, already putting on the capo on the fretboard.
Sunwoo smiled teasingly at first, but his voice softens when you sing the bridge.
As much as he hates Jungwon, heâs glad that that jerk has done something good in sparking your creativity.
you mean it when you sing about how Jungwonâs eyes were brighter than all the city lights. About how youâd trade everything for a minute more to spend with him, to hear him talk to you like you were the only ones in the world again.
how you donât want to get into any car that drives you away from him, and how he doesnât want you going away either.
that was the part that was fake, how he wanted you with him.
how could he want you with him when he claimed to never even care about you?
âYou actually sound good this time, Y/n, why do you sound like ass at karaoke?â Sunwoo huffs, making you roll your eyes, but youâre too bashful to get mad right now.
the vulnerability of sharing one of your random songs was scary, it was like you were scared of being taken seriously.
âThanks..â you mutter under your breath, but in a dismissive tone. âY/n, Iâm serious! You know about the annual showcase right?â
The annual showcase, of course you knew. Jungwon was always the star. Your school would sign up all the students with talents, group performances from the junior dance team, performances from the orchestra and choir, magic acts and a few others.
But since the first year jungwon joined 3 years ago, he was the one act everyone looked forward to.
Everyone wanted to see what new piece heâd perform, they brought tissues to wipe their tears at the end of each dance. and you? you were in the crowd, holding up your camera like a proud parent. (while his real parents, sat right next to you, barely understanding what story he was trying to portray with âflailing around the stageâ as theyâd call it)
You stayed in the practice room almost every day preparing for the show, watching as he choreographed something new, and then performed the same piece over and over again till he got it right. But you never got tired, the way his body moved was like art.
even after the performance, when students came up to him with flowers or gifts or compliments, his eyes would find yours. After his perfect showcases, heâd run into your arms, sweaty and panting, but you didnât care enough to push him back.
So yeah, you knew a thing or two about the annual showcase.
âYou could totally apply!â Sunwooâs tone is all chipper and bright, but your expression couldnât be farther from his. âAre you crazy? With this.. excuse of a song? Iâm not even a trained singer! Or a performer! I canât even go on stage for award ceremonies, what makes you think I can perform in front of the whole school and their moms?!â
Sunwoo puts a hand on your shoulder, stopping you from rambling. âY/n, relax. Nobodyâs forcing you to join.â
You blink rapidly, looking down at your gibberish lyrics again. As if these random words would be any good to perform in front of an entire audience. As if youâd be any good.
âThe council is looking for more talents, because all the seniors last year are gone. Why donât you just.. start practising? Finish the lyrics, and.. if you feel up for it, I could maybe put your name on the list..?â Sunwoo smiled, and you already feel the embarrassment hit you in the face.
Sure, you liked watching the seniors perform back then, but yourself singing? In front of the whole student body, who probably knew you as the girl who wasnât cool enough for Jungwon to hang out with anymore?
Especially when Jungwon was definitely going to perform too? He'd probably laugh and make fun of you to his friends if he saw your name on the list of talents. And heâd know the song was about him, who else had you feeling like that? The whole school would probably know.
there was no way youâd risk public humiliation for a stupid song about a stupid boy who broke your heart.
but then again.. wouldnât performing it be like some kind of closure? you look down, awkwardly taking off the capo.
âIâll think about it.â you muttered.
you couldnât outright refuse. not just yet. because the thought of you performing (and maybe Jungwon seeing you on stage) excited you a little.
v. monster - somewhere only we know - bills
AFTER THE PARTY, Jungwon barely saw you at school.
Before? He saw you everywhere. You were in the same classes, youâd sit at lunch tables near his, even on the street in the neighbourhood. It was like you were clinging on, trying to see him even though the air was uncomfortable and tension-filled. While he pretended not to notice, making you feel like a complete stranger.
âSheâs staring at you again..â Jay whispered with a little teasing chuckle, as they worked on a group project in the classroom, while you were sitting two rows behind. Jungwon would sigh, keeping his head faced away.
Heâd complain about it before. It got annoying, the way you looked at him like he was still a part of your life.
It wasnât like you completely disappeared, you were still in his classes, still at the school hallways, still around the neighbourhood. But you seemed.. different?
He never caught you staring anymore, he never caught your gaze from the corner of his eye anymore. Sometimes heâd catch you leaving the music room, guitar on your back as you left your conversation and waved goodbye to the music teacher or student council members. You werenât even in the council, what would make you want to talk to them?
âJungwon~!â the feminine voice flutters from the doorway, as Jungwon and the boys turn their heads to find Sullyoon coming up to them.
He clears his throat immediately, putting on a tight smile. She holds onto his hand as she sits on the chair next to him like she belongs, while his arm effortlessly drapes across her shoulders.
They engage in conversation like itâs easy, and Sullyoon fails to notice how red Jungwon is, and how he seems to stutter over his words a bit more.
Right behind her when she walked in, you entered the room, bee-lining to Sunwooâs desk, whoâs leaning against it standing, with Chaewon occupying his seat.
âDonât look back.â Sunwoo whispers, leaning a little too close with his teeth clenched, as he spared a glance to the staring boy behind you.
just like any other, you donât follow his orders and let your head follow the direction of his eyes. For some reason, you catch Jungwonâs gaze, who looks away quickly, as if he never landed his eyes on you. His thumb gently fidgets with his bottom lip, as if heâs trying to appear relaxed, but the tension is obvious.
âAre you incapable of listening to me?â Sunwoo murmurs, pinching your side.
Jungwon actually sees you for the first time in the activity rooms after school. Not just you ignoring him or passing by in the halls.
He had booked Studio A to practise his performance for the showcase, but so far? No creative luck.
you were always the one to pick out the music, he claimed you had a natural ear for the right songs he could dance to. So without that tool, he was one task short of finishing his piece.
The school showcase was in two months, he had time, at least thatâs what he told himself.
But it was hard when this time, heâd be doing this all by himself. Jake and Sunghoon cared, but they didnât use all their time and energy to entirely focus on encouraging Jungwonâs performance.
Sullyoon was there for him, but she had her own thing. Some art project for her final or something, he couldnât really remember.
Back then? Youâd stay in his practise room, in awe of his dancing while simultaneously reminding him of little things to make him look better.
This time, he didnât have a second eye to watch over him. To point out what to correct when he didnât notice, to tell him he was doing great when he kept beating himself up. Especially the latter half.
Jungwon knew he was hard on himself sometimes, but he was such a perfectionist that he didnât care for it. He needed something, some kind of guilty pleasure or reminder that he was already doing good.
but after an hour of trying out moves he could use in the show, he stands in front of the mirror, hands on the barre as he looks at himself â sweaty, panting, lost.
He looks like heâs put in so much effort, physically, heâs done. but what heâd achieved so far in this session were a few empty dance moves with no real connection. He didnât even have a song, for gods sakes.
What if he trips up on stage? Not the accidental, injury-type falls, but the ones where he forgets his piece or doesnât do good enough to connect to the audience like heâs done last year, or the years prior to that.
What if he doesnât meet up to the schoolâs expectation? This showcase made him practically highschool royalty, everyone and their mothers came to watch. Of course, for the other studentsâ performances as well, but the reactions he received? Basically overshadowed everyone else.
This was his last year. He even heard thereâd be agents in the audience this time. Even ones from SM, and YGX not just the local dance studios.
Preparing for the showcase this time didnât feel as effortless and fun anymore. No one to make him feel better when he forgot a move, or to make him laugh and distract him from the pressure.
screw it â why was he even missing you? he made a point in cutting you off, you werenât good for him anymore.
not after what you did.
he walks out into the cold hallways of the school building, sweat still gleaming from his forehead and shirt clinging onto his frame. But his steps come to a halt when he remembers he left his bag in the music room.
He expects the lights to be off, as he casually strolls through the halls, lips puckered as he hums along to a random beat. When he gets there, what he doesnât expect is you to be walking across the music room to her guitar, humming a melody.
Jungwonâs eyes narrow, as he finds himself frozen, watching your movements from the slit of the door.
You walk to the stool again where your guitar sits, taking off your AirPod and pausing the song on your phone. The melody stays in your head, as you mindlessly sing along, letting the lyrics linger to your lips.
Jungwonâs ears perk. Somehow, he hears your quiet, casual singing, and the lyrics, the melody, it all sounds perfect â perfect for the showcase.
That was pretty ironic.. the one year he cuts you off, youâre still the one who knows his music better than anyone else.
as heâs about to walk in, he suddenly gets interrupted by the rhythmic strumming of your guitar, and soft hums again that follow. Each time you sing, youâre stopping to review, and write a new lyric. Heâs never even heard this song before, were you actually serious about this whole songwriting thing?
Jungwon didn't want to remember it, but seeing you like this reminds him of the times heâd stay at your house, while you sang random songs you learnt on the guitar for fun.
maybe heâs in some kind of trance, not realising how much heâs leaning against the door. because a second later, in the middle of you practising one verse, sounds of metal clanging and wood falling fill the quiet room.
âShit-â Jungwonâs eyes widen, as he hurriedly enters the studio to pick it up, not bothering to apologise. you quickly make your way towards him, picking up the fallen cymbals and guitar stands.
You donât look at him again, and it annoys him. Not how you ignore him, but how heâs looking at you, as if heâs trying to get you to notice him. Seeing you this close, he gets a view of all the details he had slowly forgotten about since the last time before he cut you off. The way your eyebrows slightly crease, lips pursed awkwardly, as your eyes and focus stayed glued onto picking up the equipment.
(Thereâs a reason you donât look up at him, you physically canât. because you donât know what stupid thing youâll do or say if you do turn your head up)
â..What are you doing here?â you ask, still looking down at the instruments, luckily, no damage.
Jungwon clears his throat, looking away before his voice turns high-pitched. âMy gym bag. Uh.. I left it here.â you hate how awkward he sounds.
Your eyes follow his figure as he walks past you, but you turn back around to face your back towards him, pretending to fix the instruments he knocked over.
âUm.. what was that song you were singing..? earlier when.. before whatever you played on the guitar.â He asks awkwardly, like itâs taking all the pride in him, gulping it down, to ask this.
Whatever. The song meant for him on the guitar was just whatever.
âEarlier? Were you watching me?â
Jungwon feels his blood boil again, as he takes in a deep, shaky breath, before rolling his eyes. âForget it.â He says, walking quickly past. This wasnât worth getting his pride crushed.
âYahârelax.â You scoff, nudging his shoulder, as Jungwon almost pushed past you to go through the door. The sudden contact makes him move back, avoiding your physicality.
and his move makes you put your hand down awkwardly, blinking and looking away. âIts.. âMonsterâ by Shawn Mendes and Justin Bieber.â you read from your phone, showing the screen back to jungwon.
he doesnât lean in to see the screen, even if he canât really see it that clearly. It's like he doesnât even want to step in your vicinity.
âOh. Thanks.â
you almost want to scoff at his dryness, but you offer a tight-lipped smile, looking away awkwardly.
he walks past, not even sparing you a glance, his chin held up high with an arrogance to his expression you want to slap off.
you close your eyes again, taking a deep inhale to stop yourself from cursing him out as the door shuts. When you go back to your seat, you only see your lyric sheet and pencil there. Which is weird because, you couldâve sworn you had the poster to the showcase right there.
Jungwon stares at the poster in his hands as he steps outside, a sharp glare in his eyes before crumpling it in his fist.
He knows he shouldnât have stolen from you, but he couldnât care less.
Because he still recalls the sight he caught when he was grabbing his PE clothes earlier, on a pin board in the back of the music room,

your name, right there, staring at him like a challenge. the showcase that was practically all about him, that was his turf, his stage.
and he had to share it with you. He couldn't have that happen, not when he was trying to erase you from his life. and this would be his last straw, he swears on that.

MASTERLIST | STRAY KIDS MASTERLIST
The clock on the far side of the room ticks slowly, counting the seconds, minutes, and hours that are going by. The leaky faucet in the bathroom down the hallway drips in unison. Chanâs foot taps, perfectly in sync before dipping out of rhythm every now and then, when he gets distracted.
And he is just that â quite distracted.
Normally, he had no problem keeping rhythm. In fact, he was quite good at it. If he were really paying attention, he wouldâve noticed this cacophony of sounds and likely pulled out his old laptop to record a sample or type something out quickly. Inspiration, he often said, was found any and everywhere, if you simply took the time to stop and listen.
He wasnât about to listen to his own advice right now, though.
Your giggles â usually a source of his own happiness (and inspiration) â were at the moment getting on his nerves. Not because it was you, and not because he thought your laugh was annoying, no â he loved your laugh, loved you. But the fact that Jeongin was the one making you giggle and blush like that⊠well, that simply wasnât acceptable.
He glares over at you, where youâre curled up in the corner of the couch and glued to your phone, squealing and giggling as you watch and re-watch Jeonginâs parts in the new music video.
He looks sooo good in this video, Channie!
I canât believe how much heâs grown into his features, he looks so different nowâŠ
Ah, his biceps! Has he been coming to the gym with you more often?
âNo, he hasnât.â Chanâs voice is sour, bitter and jealous. His cheeks flush slightly with embarrassment â here he was, a grown man of nearly 30, throwing a hissy fit over his dongsaeng. Jeongin, of all people! Of all the other members! It made it that much more humiliating, that he was jealous of Jeongin. His baby brother.
If you notice the sullenness in your boyfriendâs voice, you donât show it, which adds to Chanâs annoyance. Why werenât you watching his parts? His clips? What was so fascinating about Jeongin in this video?
âMaybe heâs been going with Bin, then⊠because heâs gotta be working out pretty damn hard for thoseâŠâ you marvel, rewinding the video again to catch another glimpse of Jeonginâs biceps flexing as he raises his arms.
That was it. Chanâs scowl darkens, and he moves over next to you to grab your phone from your hands â the video still playing â before scooting back over to his end of the couch, a smug smile on his face now as he hears your protests.
âChan, whaâŠâ you grumble, your gaze finally settling on your attention starved boyfriend. His face lights up as you regard him â never mind that your expression is confused and annoyed â and he shuts off your phone, beaming.
âYouâre not paying attention to me,â he pouts, and his cuteness almost makes you forget about his thievery.
âGive it back,â you pout back, playfully reaching for your phone.
âUh-uh⊠Jeongin time is over. Itâs Channieâs time now.â He grins wider, holding the phone even further out of your reach. You groan in exasperation.
âBabe, come onâŠâ
âI said, itâs time to pay attention to Daddy now.â
A chill runs down your spine at the dominant turn in Chanâs voice. You swallow hard, your mouth suddenly feeling very dry, and your heart starting to pound faster. When you meet his gaze, his eyes are dark with lust and control. He makes sure that youâre watching his every movement, as he stands up and places your phone on the nearby table, screen side down. You can hear it buzzing, and he clicks his tongue as he watches you twitch with hesitation.
âWhyâre you so focused on other things, baby girl? Iâm right here⊠I need you too,â he croons, slowly walking towards you. You feel exposed, bare, despite the fact that youâre still completely clothed.
Once heâs standing before you, he nudges between your legs so that heâs able to get right in front of you, smirking as he watches your expression change to a flustered one. Your eyes lock with the sight before you â his crotch, his erection straining at the confines of his jeans. A strong, firm hand at the back of your head gently guides you closer, until your plush lips press against his hardness. You let out a small whimper as you feel his cock throbbing, pulsing against your hot mouth.
âSeems like you might need me just as much as I need you,â he murmurs, a teasing edge to his voice as he lets out a shaky exhale, feeling every quiver of your desperate, eager mouth. âIs that right, baby?â
âMm⊠mhmâŠâ you moan, your voice muffled. He lets out a low groan, the vibrations of your voice making him shudder with arousal.
âGood girl. âS what I like to hear.â His grip on your hair tightens, and he pulls you back, away from his crotch. It makes you whine again, but he shushes you as his free hand fumbles with his belt, with his button and zipper before roughly shoving his jeans and his boxers down at the same time. His jaw clenches with impatience and the strain of holding back as his cock twitches and bobs right before your eyes â itâs a bit cruel how he holds you back, makes you watch as a bead of precum forms at his slit. Your tongue darts out to wet your lips, salivating as he watches you with amusement and satisfaction.
Finally, finally, he loosens his grip on your hair once more, grunting as you take that as permission to touch him. You move forward eagerly, your hands grabbing at his muscular thighs to pull him even closer, needing him to overwhelm every one of your senses. You press messy kisses to his hip, his upper thigh, making him groan and leak more precum, the sticky fluid dribbling down his aching shaft. Youâre careful to not tease too much, knowing his patience is thin already tonight. And anyway, you want to please him. He needs it, and youâre completely willing to give it â to show him just how much you want him, more than anyone else. Forget everyone else.
He lets out an uneven, shaky breath as your lips finally close around his tip, your tongue swirling around his slit and tasting his bitter essence. You put on a bit of a show, moaning at the taste as you flutter your lashes and look up at him, further spurred on by the sight youâre met with â him, his head thrown back already, groaning as he lets you worship him.
You take more of him in your mouth, eager to please him more now, your grip tightening on his creamy thighs as you hollow your cheeks and tighten your lips around his throbbing length. His tip prods the back of your throat, and you hold back a gag as you swallow around it, eliciting a strained grunt from the man above you.
He takes things into his own hands now, mind blurred with lust. He curses under his breath, using both hands to grab your head and thrust fully into your mouth, chuckling breathily at the sound of your surprised, garbled moan. Your nose presses against his crotch, nosing at the short, fine hairs there. You take the opportunity to use your tongue to swipe at his balls, making him grit his teeth and shiver at the sensation.
âFuck⊠taking me so good, arenât you?â he practically purrs, looking down at you with adoration. âMy good girlâŠâ
Eagerly, you let out a whimper, the vibrations of your throat around his cock making him mutter a quiet âfuckâ under his breath.
Once heâs sure that youâre adjusted, sure that youâre ready, he draws his hips back, sucking in a deep breath as he looks down at his spit slicked length. His hips snap forward, thrusting his cock into the back of your throat roughly, and he moans loudly as you let out a choked splutter. He thrusts hard and fast, chuckling darkly at the sight of your spit dripping down his chin, dribbling down his balls and making a messy puddle of fluids on the floor between the two of you.
âMn, fuck⊠ây like that? Like the feeling of my cock down your throat?â he grunts, biting his lower lip hard as he feels your tongue swipe along the underside of his length, teasing despite his rough treatment.
Your nails dig into his skin, as if to wordlessly say, yes.
The hungry, lustful look in your eyes paired with the hot, wet cavern of your mouth proves too much for Chan to handle, at least for too long. Youâre far from done when he pulls you off of his cock, and you let out a hoarse whine of protest. His chest is heaving, the exposed skin of his lower stomach shiny with perspiration.
âBedroom,â he growls, dark eyes trained on your shivering form as you stand up immediately, obeying his words like a well trained dog. He kicks off his jeans and boxers, leaving a trail of clothes behind him as he follows you to the bedroom, stalking you like a predator closing in on its prey.
You feel like youâre being hunted too â stumbling on shaky legs (even though you hadnât even been fucked yet), short of breath. You cast a look over your shoulder every few steps, slowing your pace as you watch Chanâs shadowy form trailing after you. He too pauses, to take off his shirt. Your breath hitches as you watch him pull the sweat soaked garment over his head, his muscles flexing deliciously in the limited light.
âI didnât tell you to stop, baby.â You shiver, your panties dampening and your heart rate increasing as his voice echoes down the dim hallway. You quicken your pace, skittering down the hall and entering the bedroom. You perch delicately, nervously, on the edge of the bed â watching the doorway, waiting for Chan.
He enters momentarily, but every second feels like an eternity until he appears in your line of vision again.
Completely nude now, he looks like a Greek god standing there. Thereâs a slightly cocky, arrogant look on his face as he watches your hungry expression, and he shifts to wrap his thick fingers around his even thicker cock. Stroking slowly, teasingly, he lets out a low groan, squeezing his tip before letting go, smirking at the way you squeeze your thighs together and suck in a quick, eager breath.
âStrip. And lay back for me,â he orders, watching from the doorway. Refusing to come closer, unless you listen to what he says. Holding the reward of his cock just out of your reach.
What else can you do?
Itâs not like you wanted to disobey anyway.
You fumble with your clothes, the fabric suddenly becoming extremely confusing as you try to rip everything off as fast as possible. Chan hides a smile behind a stoic demeanor as he watches you struggle to get your shirt over your head.
You eventually figure it out, your cheeks flushed with sheepishness as you settle in the middle of the bed, propping yourself up slightly with your elbows. Just enough that you can still see Chan.
Heâs looking over your nude frame appreciatively, a low grumble of a growl in his throat as he finally begins to approach. He crawls onto the foot of the bed, slowly making his way up to you, back muscles rippling with every slight movement. He doesnât stop until heâs hovering over you, his cock pressing against your inner thigh, hot and throbbing right next to where you need him most. Youâre sure he can feel it too, from the way his length slips against your slick skin, dampened with your juices.
He leans down, pressing his face into the curve of your neck, inhaling your scent deeply. Memorizing everything about you, as if he didnât already have it committed to memory.
He adjusts, angling his hips slightly differently, making you gasp as he presses against your sopping slit instead of your inner thigh. It was like he could read your mind â or, he was just thinking the same thing.
Your hands find refuge on his back, nails taking up and down his milky, rippling skin. His hands settle on your hips, squeezing the plush flesh there, anchoring himself before he pulls back slightly, nudging your legs onto his shoulders, that same cocky grin spread across his handsome features as he looks down at your flustered expression. He leans over to press a surprisingly tender kiss to your quivering leg, before he looks down and lets out a shaky breath, tapping his tip against your clit.
âReady?â he murmurs softly, his other hand reaching up to find yours â both of your hands were lost, clutching at the sheets desperately after you removed them from his back. You squeeze his hand gently, the feeling comforting.
You nod, biting your lower lip in anticipation. And so he presses forward, a guttural groan escaping his lips at the same time a whimpery mewl escapes yours.
Thereâs a slight bit of resistance as he presses the blunt tip of his cock against your tight slit, reminding both of you that it had been too long since the last time this happened. You wince slightly at the burn, the stretch, as his tip wedges its way inside, pressing deeper and deeper. It begins to satisfy that gnawing hunger from within, making you let out a sob of relief as he bottoms out inside you, despite the slight pain that remains.
Chan lets out a snarl, upper lip curling as he presses your legs up against your chest, nearly folding you in half as he starts to fuck you hard and fast â mirroring the rough pace heâd set when fucking your face just minutes before.
âFuck, fuck⊠fuck yes,â he groans, letting out a pleased hum as he hears your mewls increase in volume. He bottoms out, grinning widely as you squirm when he swirls his hips in circles, grinding his tip against your cervix. It feels so deep, so intense â itâs no wonder you canât help but sputter and babble for more, even though heâs giving you more than you can handle.
âBaby girl likes it when Daddyâs rough with her, hm?â he coos, snapping his hips against yours, the emanating squelches making you moan with embarrassment and arousal. âCome on⊠say it. Tell me how much you love it, how good you fuckinâ feel right nowâŠâ
He reaches down, thumbing at your sensitive, ignored clit, making you gasp at the sudden dual pleasure. âF-feels so good!â you manage to stutter out, finding it extremely difficult to properly form words at the moment.
He pulls out suddenly, and your skin screams for his touch to return. Your legs fall back limply, aching from the position that they had been pressed in all this time. His expression is one of pure lust, endless longing, as he looks at the sweaty sheen of your skin, the way the dim light highlights your curves and dips.
âFlip over for me, baby.â His voice is commanding, that dominant edge not leaving despite the growing exhaustion in his aching muscles.
You do so, your legs shaking as you get on all fours. Chanâs touch is back on you instantly, sending fire through your veins, bringing you back to life. You find your voice, whimpering his name â Daddy â desperately, loudly, as he shoves your face into the sheets and presses his hips against yours.
He drags his tip over your clit, over your aching and swollen hole, stopping just before he reaches your ass. He sucks in a quivering breath, in a trance as he stares at the glorious sight before him. Never before has anyone been able to evoke such animalistic instinct from him before, such primal urge. He stares at your vulnerability, drooling at the implications and potential possibilities. âPretty⊠my baby girl has such pretty holes, all for me to useâŠâ
âDaddy, please!â you plead, your cries muffled, tears and snot and saliva soaking the sheets beneath your face.
He growls in response, slapping his cock against your swollen pussy. You sob, your feet kicking against the mattress weakly, listlessly, uselessly.
He plunges his cock back into you without any warning, without even another word. Your sob turns to a deep moan, your walls clamping down around his thick girth, sucking him in deeper.
It takes everything in him to not fill you up right there, right at that moment.
Drawing back slowly, his balls tight and full, he has to hold back even more, biting his tongue. Thereâs a circle of cream around the base of his cock, your combined fluids making a painfully erotic sight. He needs more, needs to feel you cum on his cock.
He changes his position, faster than you can protest. One hand cements itself on your hip, the grip bruising. The other reaches around, pressing hard against your puffy clit and rubbing in tight circles. He has to muffle a moan by leaning down and biting your shoulder as he feels your pussy clench around him again. His hips start thrusting again, frantic and needy. His teeth release your flesh, soothing the sting with his soft lips, pressing sloppy kisses everywhere you need him.
âD-DaddyâŠâ you moan, the new position bringing you to your orgasm much faster than before. You can feel him so fucking deep, feel the roughness of his calloused fingers directly on your clit. Itâs too much, and you both know it. You can practically see the smug grin on his face as you close your eyes, focusing on the feeling of his tip dragging against your g-spot with each knowing draw of his hips.
âGo on, cream on my cock, baby. Know you wanna,â he growls, pinching your clit between his h thumb and forefinger, moaning in harmony with the scream it brings from your lungs. âG-gonna breed this pussy so fuckinâ fullâŠâ
You think you black out for a second, but you canât be sure. All you know is that one moment youâre crying Chanâs name, and the next his front is pressed against your back as he whispers your name back, heat blooming inside you as he spurts ropes of thick cum deep into your womb.
He presses kisses to your sweaty shoulder, hands coming to gently smooth over your waist, soft praises falling from his lips â so sweet in comparison to the dirty filth heâd been spewing just before.
He pulls out with a sharp inhale, watching the pearly rivulets of your combined release flowing from your sweet pussy. He nearly leans back in, but you flip back over to pull him into a searing kiss instead. He kisses back, heart skipping a beat as he gently pulls you into an embrace.
âSatisfied now?â you murmur, voice hoarse but still teasing.
That was something (one of the many things) he adored about you â your insatiable, never ending spark. He rolls his eyes, resting his head on your chest.
âMm⊠maybe for now,â he concedes, indeed content for now, as long as your phone (and the replays of Jeonginâs parts) stay away from his girl.
