oh sion
cuddling with sion is nice because he holds you very compassionately and rubs small circles into your skin so you fall asleep easier
but there's just one downside
this man has an IRON GRIP you literally have no idea how he's so goddamn strong
like unHANd me right now you gremlin
refuses to let go of you even though you know damn well your boss will kill u if you're late
"sion, babe, i have to gO!"
"mm, no, it can wait. jus' needa hold you."
"it actually can't wait-"
he says it's because he loves physical touch and he loves being close to you because he can smell your perfume and it feels very domestic
which to that you're like awww that's cute baby but LET ME GO
gold-star cuddling position: sion on his back as you lay over him and rest your head on his chest
+ you can hear his heartbeat
+ he can place kisses to the crown of your head
— gives him the capacity to squeeze you until your soul exits your body
maeda riku
do not cuddle with him or else he will force you to scratch at his scalp while he purrs softly
well really it's YOUR fault because of one night when you two were watching disney+ in your apartment
riku had his head on your lap and you mindlessly reached your hand in his hair and scratched
ever since then, he has REFUSED to cuddle with you if he doesn't receive any
"honey what should we watch?"
"hm, i'm not sure."
"can u check our watch list real quick" you nod and take your hand off his head and he whines
ur like WHAT
"nooo keep doing it NOW"
"you're the one that told me to check???"
"NOW."
gold-star cuddling position: you sitting on the couch with his head resting on your lap (as you scratch his scalp of course)
+ gives him a good view of your face
+ you get to squish his face all you want
— you are legally required to have your hand glued to his scalp or else he will cry and sob
tokuno yushi
i feel like yushi doesn't ever ask to cuddle, it just happens in the moment
he's a silent lover but he loves loud
unfortunately he has ice cold hands so please stay away from him if you hate chilly things
and it's even worse that he just cuddles with you because you get no warning whatsoever
you're on the couch watching tv and he comes home and ur like oh hi sweetie you're home :)
he doesn't say anything but just joins you on the couch and rests his head on your shoulder
"how was your day, love?" he asks
"good! i didn't have work today, so i stayed home- AAAAAHH OH MY GOD BABE WHAT THE HELL-" you're suddenly hit with cold shocks when yushi snakes his hands up and into your shirt and holds your waist
"what" he's genuinely so confused as if he didn't just electrify you with his antarctican hands
gold-star cuddling position: yushi as big spoon and you as little spoon
+ lets him talk to you at a comfortable volume because he's right next to your ear
+ very intimate but easy-to-get-into position
— he can put his hands up your shirt and you can't escape so u have no choice but to suffer
kim jaehee
u genuinely love ur bf but you can't cuddle with him for CRAP because he falls asleep so easily
whenever you ask him about it he says it's just because he's super comfortable w you
which is sweet but hello can you at least TRY to fight your eyelids from closing??
"and then this character is like the popular guy that gets all the girls, he's really cocky and the other guys don't like him- baby, are you listening?"
"..."
"babe? you still with me??"
"hhhOONnnkk ssHHOoooo"
"jesus"
whenever you two watch movies together you have to sit upright on the couch like you're being interviewed
otherwise he WILL fall asleep
gold-star cuddling position: n/a
hirose ryo
i feel like ryo would be hesitant to ask you to cuddle in the first place
AND he'd probably be really stiff at first because he's just a little nervous
like you have to initiate the cuddling and wait for him to warm up then he's all good
"y/n."
"yes, ryo?"
".........."
"do you wanna cuddl-" "yes"
you laugh
once you two are cuddling, he's just kinda laying there and you're all like ??? hello??? didn't you want this???
"ryo, relax-" you giggle
"i am relaxed." he says
"right."
gold-star cuddling position: you two laying down facing each other, legs entangled
+ you get to look into each other's eyes fondly
+ u can have domestically deep conversations in the quiet of the night
— literally won't move unless you move his limbs for him
fujinaga sakuya
ykw don't even bother cuddling w him he cannot stop moving around
and even if you do somehow manage to get him to stay still he's still SOMEHOW moving
yk how you rest your head on someone's shoulder but they're laughing and their shoulder shakes so your head shakes too
that's exactly what happens with you and sakuya
"HAHAHA oh my god y/n look at this video-"
"sTOp moving!!"
even worse because sakuya actually likes cuddling with you too but he just can't seem to do it right /j
don't worry there are times where he locks in and takes it seriously
those times are rare but they do happen
*very rare
gold-star cuddling position: him laying on the couch, you on top resting your head on his shoulder
+ can show each other tiktoks within a close vicinity
+ comfy. very comfy
— your head is constantly moving because your pillow can't stop laughing at his fyp

₊˚ʚ sion
you watch as sion steals a quick glance in your direction, lips faintly twitching upwards before he bursts into a fit of giggles. he’s oozing with a certain happiness and you can’t figure out where it's coming from, especially since the two of you were currently being disciplined for arriving late to class.
“hi.” he abruptly greets to catch your attention, voice warm with amusement, and at this point, the grin on his face is so wide you’re wondering how his cheeks haven’t started to ache yet.
“just letting you know that i like you. god, i like you so much.”
“you tell me as we’re being punished? hands raised and all?” you give him an incredulous look, lifting your aching arms higher to prove your point further.
“um.” the boy breaks into another fit of giggles, ducking his head slightly, strands of hair falling over his eyes as he tries and miserably fails to compose himself. still, he’s smiling at you like he can’t help it, dimples deepening every time another laugh escapes his chest. “yeah, horrible timing, huh…” he pauses for a beat, then looks back at you with that same mischievous twinkle in his eyes. “but i couldn’t hold it in anymore.”
your lips part, exhaling a tiny laugh of disbelief that somehow makes you forget the tortuous feeling in your arms. “you’re so lucky i like you too.”
₊˚ʚ riku
you’ve both just stepped out of the library after cramming for an exam, and suspiciously, the campus feels quieter than usual. perhaps that’s why you’ve noticed the way riku’s been fiddling with his bag strap for the last five minutes now, tugging it up and down as if he wanted to keep his thoughts elsewhere, even if you could tell the tactic was obviously failing him.
“so… i’ve… um…” you hear him blurt out from your side, “i know this isn't exactly the best place for this but i just wanted to say i’ve liked you for a really long time.” he stammers out in a voice pitched higher than his usual, scratching the back of his neck as his ears glow from the faint blush on them. “not that i’m expecting you to give me an answer or anything. that’d be stupid—”
“oh thank god.” you cut in quickly, relief spilling out in the form of a deep exhale before you could stop yourself. “i thought i was the only one.”
and suddenly all the fiddling he’s been doing has frozen up in place.
“wait.” his breath catches for a few seconds, entire face turning into a deeper shade of crimson as his head snaps toward you. “no, no, repeat that. please, say that again, i need to hear you say that again.”
“i like you too.”
“one more time?”
“maeda riku.”
“…fine.”
₊˚ʚ yushi
you hear yushi’s steps accompanying yours as he walks you to your dorm. his hands are tucked casually in his pockets, shoulders relaxed, like this is just another ordinary walk home. it’s not usually this silent between the two of you, yet for some reason, tonight he seems content to let the quiet linger but then you hear a couple of words slip out his mouth and everything suddenly becomes deafeningly loud.
“pardon?” you blink, slowing your pace as though your ears might’ve tricked you.
he tilts his head, eyes gleaming with amusement. “what part of ‘i want you and only you’ did you not understand?” his lips curl into a smug little grin, like he’s been waiting for your delayed reaction all along when he’s usually the one who’s slow to these kind of things.
“i… i thought you were joking…” you mumble, heat creeping up your neck as you avert your gaze.
“huh,” yushi drawls, clearly entertained even though he doesn’t completely look like it. he leans a little closer, lowering his voice just enough to make your heart skip. “i should probably repeat it so it sticks then.”
your breath hitches, and of course he notices, causing that annoyingly satisfied look on his face to cement in place. the space between you suddenly reverts back to being quiet, and you’re surprised he isn’t pushing for a response, but he doesn’t need to—not when he sees the way the tips of your ears burn and how your eyes dart to anywhere but him.
₊˚ʚ jaehee
the two of you had spent the entire afternoon wandering the mall together—sharing snacks from the food court, and laughing at each other’s commentary on random displays. this was the kind of easy weekend routine you and Jaehee had built as best friends. but now, with shopping bags in hand and the evening crowd thinning, he suddenly seemed quieter, more restless.
jaehee lingers by your side as you walk toward the exit, fiddling with the hem of his sleeve. his usual carefree chatter is nowhere to be found, replaced by a nervous energy you can’t quite ignore.
“promise me you won’t hate me after what i'm about to say?” his voice slips out cautiously, almost drowned out by the hum of people passing by.
“hm? how could I ever hate you, dae?” the words come easily, because you mean them.
he exhales a shaky laugh, glancing away like the dirty floor tiles have suddenly become fascinating. “i can’t believe I’m actually saying this.” his hand comes up to rub his nape, face warming under the fluorescent mall lights.
finally, he looks at you, eyes brimming with unguarded honesty. “i like you,” he admits, voice low but sure. “a lot.”
the noise of the mall seemed to blur around you, the moment wrapping itself in its own kind of quiet. and though your heart was racing, you couldn’t stop the small smile tugging at your lips because somehow, it felt like the most natural thing in the world.
₊˚ʚ ryo
ryo slows his steps beside you, his hands shoved deep into his pockets. classes had just ended, and for a while, the afternoon was filled only with the sound of fellow students chatting away, but then he breaks the silence with a sudden murmur.
“i have a secret.”
your head turns instinctively, curiosity quickly sparking, but when your eyes meet his, he quickly looks away. a faint blush creeps across his cheeks, and he takes the moment to clear his throat. “...forget it. i’m not telling you.”
“best friends tell each other everything.” you narrow your gaze, unwilling to let it go.
just then, the corner of your mouth curls. before he can retreat any further, your finger jabs at his side. he flinches, the sound of laughter spilling from him in a way he clearly didn’t mean to show. you poke again, chasing after him until he’s stumbling backward, laughter breaking through his weak protests.
and then it bursts out of him, sharp and breathless, like he’s been holding it in for far too long. “ah, stop it! fine—i like you!!”
the words hang between you, raw and unpolished. his chest rises and falls quickly as you stop with your antics, eyes darting nervously toward you, but you only step closer, letting your hand brush his.
“...then I guess your secret’s safe with me cause it’s mutual.”
₊˚ʚ sakuya
the cafe was quiet, filled with the low hum of conversation and the clinking of cups, but at your table, the only sounds were the scratching of pens and the occasional shuffle of papers. sakuya sat across from you, brows furrowed, pretending to focus on his notes. you could see right through him though—the way his eyes lingered on you a little too long before darting back to his book and the faint flush creeping over his ears.
you sighed, unable to take his stubbornness any longer as you closed your textbook shut. “i like you.”
your words slipped out plainly, no buildup, no warning and you could basically see his reaction in real time. the way his pen froze mid-stroke and how he refused to even look up and meet your eyes.
“...hey, are you even listening?”
his head jerked up, eyes wide, color rushing into his cheeks. “w-what?! of course i was listening!” his voice cracked slightly before he caught himself, scowling as though that could cover his embarrassment. “idiot… why’d you have to say it first?”
you bit back a smile, resting your chin in your palm.
sakuya looked away, ears flaming as he muttered under his breath, “...i like you too. more than i should, probably. so don’t look so smug about it.”

₊˚ʚ sion
loops an arm around you before you even register it, tugging you against him while his chin rests on your head—doesn’t even bother asking first, just makes it clear you’re not dealing with it alone
once you tell him, your problem becomes his problem. he will 100% share your anger, roll his eyes, mutter under his breath, immediately scheming revenge plots with you (literally your number 1 supporter. it does not matter if the act is illegal or not what who said that…)
anyways, congrats! not only did you bag yourself a boyfriend but you now also have a hater buddy for life!!
“cause nah they’re actually insane for that. but don’t worry, i’ll knock them out for you if you want, cutie.”
his fingers would also absentmindedly find yours mid-rant or he starts shifting until your legs are tangled like it’s the most natural thing in the world
if you brush it off, he’ll pinch your cheek or lean all his weight against you, teasing until you push him off, but he just grins and clings tighter. even after you’ve calmed down, he doesn’t let go, fingers intertwined with yours and making sure you know he’s not going anywhere
₊˚ʚ riku
would probably start running towards you in a slight frenzy of panic as soon as he hears the faintest huff of frustration leave your pretty lips, eyes glazed with a sense of worry because who in their right mind would turn his baby like this??
he’ll ask if you’re okay with the softest voice he could muster, hands hovering for a second before he finally rests them to gently cup your cheeks—thumb brushing small circles over your skin as he studies your features
“you don’t have to always be okay, just let it all out baby.”
when you finally tell him what’s been weighing your mind down, he’d press a light peck on your lips before giving you a smile, eyes crinkling with warmth
“did that make you feel better? no? maybe you need another dose, hmm?”
he’d only continue to tease you further, peppering your face with quick kisses until you can’t help but laugh and he won’t let go just yet either—arms slipping around your waist to pull you flush against him, as if holding you tighter could squeeze out the last bits of your stress
₊˚ʚ yushi
he’d somehow notice that there was something bothering you before you could even take a step inside your shared apartment. it’s almost as if he had a radar for these kind of things and you’ve caught him waiting for you to get home by the door like a poor kitten more often times than not
once he sees your figure come into view, he’d step forward and wrap you in his arms without a word, tucking your head under his chin as if it would shield you from the world
“it’s okay, i’m right here with you.”
doesn’t rush you to say anything either, he just sways you both gently from side to side, humming a soft tune under his breath until the tightness in your chest begins to ease away
once you’re ready, he’ll guide you to sit down, brushing his hand over your hair and setting a glass of water in front of you, and if words don’t come, he’s perfectly fine with that too because all he wants to do is to make sure you’re taken care of
₊˚ʚ jaehee
he notices the heaviness in your steps before you even say a word, his gaze following you with quiet concern, but instead of pressing for answers, he pats the spot next to him on the couch, waiting until you sink down beside him
“long day, bub?”
when you don’t answer right away, he just drapes a blanket over your shoulders and slides one of your favorite snacks into the palms of your hands. the silence stretches for a moment before he leans in closer
“hm… if i eat half of this with you, will it make the sadness go away twice as fast?”
there’s a faint curve to his lips, not pushing too hard but just enough to lighten the air. he lets you take your time, sitting close but not crowding, his hand brushing yours every now and then in a quiet reassurance
“you don’t have to tell me anything yet, just… let me be here, okay?”
the calm lingers, but his little quips slip through every now and then—small, careful sparks meant to ease the weight without demanding you laugh
₊˚ʚ ryo
he'd notice your mood instantly and probably points it out with a little frown before plopping down down beside you
“hey, that sigh was way too dramatic…”
though, instead of asking you what happened straight away, he nudges your shoulder with his and waits for you to crack, giving you those puppy eyes until you finally look at him
when you tell him what’s wrong, he listens seriously (even if his lips twitch like he’s holding back a snarky comment about whatever angered you every now and then)
“okay. new plan. we’re gonna erase that frown starting… now!”
would start doing silly things on purpose, like mimicking your sigh dramatically or making funny faces just to get you to laugh, even going as far as dramatically reenacting your ‘bad day’ as if he was reading some shakespeare script
once you do laugh, he grins so wide like he’s just won the lottery, ruffling your hair with fondness in his eyes because he much prefers when you’re all smiley
“guess my embarrassment is your latest form of entertainment now, huh? you’re lucky i like you a lot.”
₊˚ʚ sakuya
the second he notices your sulky expression, he tilts his head with this half-smile, half-squint like he’s trying to figure out if you’re actually upset or just being dramatic
“what’s with the face? someone steal your lunch money or something?”
he’ll decide to drag you out with him before you can protest, claiming it’s to ‘clear your head’—except halfway through the walk, he casually steers you toward a bakery, glancing at the shelves with way too much interest sparkling in his eyes
“uhuh, yup, this is totally for you.”
eventually, you’ll just watch as he grabs a bag of bread and then, oh look, more pastries and baked goods enter his basket before you know it. when you narrow your eyes, he simply smirks
“what? don’t overthink it. you’re sad, i’m hungry. perfect excuse, right?”
but the thing is, he still buys your favorite cream-filled sandwich without asking, sliding it into your hands after he’s paid for everything with a little shrug. he watches as you bite into it, and when you finally smile, he gives you this cocky little grin
“seriously though, don’t let it eat you up too much. i’d much rather see you like this.”

Jaehee first encountered you on his first day of working at NCTU's urgent care clinic. He had grown sick of his old job at an outpatient clinic, both literally and figuratively. He's never caught so many colds from the same place. Plus, a new location would be a nice change. More experience, he supposed. Jaehee was speaking to one of the higher-ups, Jihyo, regarding his role when the doors to the clinic swung open, a disheveled girl panting heavily at the entrance. He looked to his mentor for a cue on what the hell to do, to which she patted him on the back and smiled, gesturing towards you. "Perfect! Your first patient. Her name's Y/N! She's one of my closest friends. Also my roommate. Sweet girl. Now go on, champ." With a shove to his shoulder, Jaehee finds himself shuffling towards your figure, a clipboard pressed against his chest. He gulps.
"Good afternoon, ma'am. My name is Jaehee. How may I help you?" He asks. Your eyes meet his, orbs sparkling under the white ceiling lights. A shy smile grows on your face. "Hello," you say with a chuckle, "I'm sorry for barging in. I have these horrendous hives all over my body, let me just show you-" You pull the sleeves to your hoodie up, revealing the red rashes covering your arms and fingers. Jaehee squints, humming as he examines your skin whilst listening to your explanation.
"I don't know what happened, they just showed up and now my skin feels like it's peeling off and I'm worried because I have a photoshoot on Tuesday but I look like a cow that had its black spots skinned off- Oh god, I'm getting itchy again-" He grabs your wrist just before your hand can reach to scratch.
"Hey, hey- It's okay, alright? Try to relax. Stress can cause flare-ups, and scratching doesn't make it any better. How about I take you to one of the rooms so we can figure out how to treat this?" He looks into your eyes comfortingly. You realize you've never seen this guy at the clinic before. Whoever he is, he's got the roundest puppy eyes and the sweetest smile. You nod, letting him lead you further inside. As you two pass by the front desk, you smile, waving. "Hi Hyo!"
"Hi baby girl, what are you in here for now?" She asks, a teasing tone to her voice. Jaehee turns around and freezes. This isn't your first time here? He breaks into a cold sweat. If he provides you with the wrong information, he could get a complaint from you. Your voice snaps him out of his mind. "Hives," you say with a sigh, "I look so fugly." You whine. Jihyo laughs, putting her hands into the pockets of her scrubs.
"Oh please, you look good regardless. Stop worrying. The stress makes it worse, y'know?"
"Thanks, pookie- Hey! That's what Jaehee said too!" You laugh, jutting your thumb out to point to him. He smiles slightly. Jihyo purses her lips and nods in approval, clearly impressed. "Is that so? Pretty good for a newbie." Your eyes light up.
"I knew it! I was thinking he looked unfamiliar."
"Don't keep him for long, I still need to train him."
"Yes, Dr. Jihyo."
Jaehee faces forward to continue leading you to the room. With his back turned, you and Jihyo mouth to each other as you trail behind him.
'He's hot!' You mouth, fanning your face for extra exaggeration.
Jihyo covers her mouth to suppress her giggles, mouthing back, 'Not my type,' making an X with her hands, 'He reminds me of my brother,' she gags. You silently laugh, sending her a flying kiss before heading deeper into the clinic.
As you and Jaehee discuss your condition a little more, he prescribes you with a medication as well as an EpiPen if the hives flare up again. With a thankful wave, you leave the clinic, but not his mind. Jihyo walks behind him, smiling to herself as she watches you leave. “Not too bad, right?” She says. He nods with a smile. “Yeah, she’s sweet,” he responds. The brunette laughs. “Won’t be the last you see of her.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“You’ll see.”
—
The second time Jaehee meets you is the following week. This time, your entrance is casual, almost like you belong in the clinic. He’s the only one at the front desk this time, typing away on the computer. You step up to the desk, tapping your finger on the counter.
“Hey, Ryo! Just need to get a prescription refilled, please.” Jaehee looks up, meeting your eyes once more. You slightly jolt back. You smack the middle of your forehead with your palm, cackling to yourself. “Oh my gosh! Sorry, Jaehee. I thought you were Ryo! It’s harder to distinguish him since he dyed his hair back. I’m not used to seeing him without ginger hair.”
“It’s okay- Wait, you remember my name?”
“Of course! How could I not?” You say, almost offended.
He grins sweetly, chuckling. “Well, Miss Y/N, what are you in for?”
“So basically, I have this scar on my knee that I got yesterday because I was walking with like four inch heels on and lost my balance, and I need the ointment for it." You pull your pants up and lift your leg to show Jaehee, and he winces at the scar. "I get it prescribed here and pick them up at the CVS next to that yakiniku place. Last name L/N, first name- Well, you already know,” you say with a smile. Jaehee’s feels heat creep up his neck. Why is he so nervous?
—
Jaehee decides to ask Ryo about you. Little did you know that they live together. He brings you up for the first time and certainly not the last during dinner. Him and Ryo ordered takeout, both guys chowing down on the food after a long day. With sauce still around his mouth, Jaehee coughs.
“Do you know Y/N?”
Ryo nods, stuffing his face with rice. “Mhm, she’s a regular.”
“Regular?!” He says, voice muffled.
The younger nods again. “Yeah, she- Pass me more of the kimchi, please- She gets hurt a lot, so she comes to the clinic often. She knows everyone there, it’s kinda funny.”
Jaehee shoves the bowl of kimchi towards Ryo, humming. “She’s just clumsy like that? She’s not doing it on purpose?” He shakes his head, laughing.
“Trust me, if you hang out with Y/N, you’ll realize that she literally has two left feet. I went out with her and Jihyo this one time to watch the new Superman movie and she missed a step on the stairs. That was the hardest I’ve ever laughed. Anyway, why are you asking? You like her or something?”
Jaehee chokes on his food. Ryo watches as he struggles to breathe. He pats his back hard until he stops coughing. Ryo is laughing so hard he can't catch his breath. “No, I don’t like her! I was just curious because I’m new there!”
“Sure.”
—
Over the course of the next few months, Jaehee finds himself growing even more intrigued yet endeared by you. He realizes you always look down when walking as to not trip, he notices that you can’t handle loud noises because it makes your ears ring like crazy, and he takes note of how many medical aspects you have to keep track of. One day, you invite Jaehee to a newly opened restaurant because Hyo was working the nightshift. You had reserved for two, so you couldn’t just go by yourself. He reluctantly agreed. Jaehee had the best time with you, laughing until his ribs hurt and eating the best house-made food. Ryo was right, he realizes, when you trip over your own feet, Jaehee grabbing you by the waist to stop you from falling. He felt his cheeks heat up like crazy.
Before you two know it, you’ve fallen into a routine of you visiting the clinic, Jaehee helping you with your medications, and you both hanging out every Saturday. From the nearby Taco Bell to the ice cream place 2 hours away, you find yourself enjoying his company more as the days pass. Jaehee finds himself finding more about you than he intends. He finds out you're a psychology major, he finds out that you hate sour foods but have an intense sweet tooth, and he finds out that you can't fall asleep unless you have a pillow between your legs. Jaehee thinks he's falling for you, but he doesn't want to ruin a good thing. You think you're falling for him, but you think he's seen too much of you to ever admire you the same way.
Things change one fated night when you and Jaehee are in his dorm attempting to make shaking beef. He's marinating the beef as you chop the vegetables, accidentally slicing too close to your finger and cutting it. You hiss softly, Jaehee immediately looking back, instincts kicking in.
"You cut yourself, didn't you?" He says from behind.
"No."
"I know you better than that. C'mere." Jaehee tugs on your sleeve and you turn around, holding your finger with your other hand. He chuckles, opening a drawer to find a first-aid kit inside. You roll your eyes, smiling nonetheless. He pats the counter with his hand, signaling you to get up.
"I'm not a kid, Jae. I can do it myself."
He laughs. "I know that. But I want to do it anyway. Just let me take care of you, please."
You scoff, hoisting yourself up on the counter. With Jaehee in between your legs, he carefully tends to your cut. His hands are careful as he wipes your finger with an alcohol wipe, smiling to himself when you hiss at the sting.
"You are so incredibly clumsy, it's insane."
A laugh leaves your lips, Jaehee looking up at you to catch your expression. "At least I have you to patch me up, right?"
"Always."
He continues tending to your wound, wrapping a Peppa Pig bandaid over the cut. With a proud smile, he announces, "All done!" He looks back up at you and your eyes meet. The two of you freeze, the realization that you're only inches away sinking in. Jaehee places his hand dangerously close to your thigh, just barely brushing against it. You exhale with a laugh.
"So..."
"So?"
"If you want to kiss me, just say that, Kim Jaehee." He laughs, dropping his head down. Then, without a word, he places his hands on your waist and leans in. You wrap your hands around his neck, pulling him closer. Right before your lips meet, he pulls away. You look at him, confused.
"Sorry, I just- I feel like it's better for me to explain my feelings first before I kiss you." You laugh at his ridiculous reason, allowing him to continue.
"I've liked you for a bit now. I think I realized it about two months ago. Maybe it's because you're so spatially unaware, or maybe it's because you make me feel all warm inside, but something about you makes me want to protect you. Whether it's having a mini first-aid kit in my bag each time we go out, or me grabbing your hand before we cross the street, or like right now, patching up even the smallest of cuts. I love you. Wait, was that too much? I'm not trying to force you or anything-"
You shut him up by pressing your lips to his, stopping his ramble. He chuckles muffledly, brushing the hair out of your face and cupping your cheek softly. When you pull away, he has stars in his eyes.

Jaehee never would've thought that he'd end up with you, a clumsy patient that just so happened to be his mentor's best friend and a classmate in his university. He never would've thought that your tactics of accidentally always getting hurt would urge him to want to keep you safe.
