you knocked on the window softly. your heart beat harder in your chest as you waited for the glass to be lifted by the boy on the other side, the boy you so intensely longed for.
jaehyun looked up at you as he pulled the blinds away, bringing his bright face into full view. you smiled small and he lifted the screen, crawling out of the window, standing in front of you.
"what are you doing?" he asked, voice quiet. "it's so late, you can't—"
"i was missing you. i always miss you."
jaehyun sighed, grabbing your hand. "we can't keep doing this. it's not...it's not right."
your parents hated jaehyun since the day they met. they found him too low for their standards of who you were supposed to be with—which to you, was complete bullshit. ever since, you had to keep your distance from jaehyun, only being able to see him in the late hours of the night.
you put your head on his shoulder. "i know i promised to stay away. but i can't keep my word—not when you're involved.
jaehyun put a hand on your head, carding his fingers through your hair. you leaned into his touch, savoring the moment, as you weren't sure if it'd be the last.
⠀⠀ ➳ “I’m never letting you go.” + “Kiss me.” + “Dance with me.”
⠀⠀ ➳ How to make up after a fight?
⠀⠀ ➳ a.n : I’m not familiar with nflying so pls forgive me for my lack of knowledge
⠀〔 9 : 13 pm 〕
Neither of you could even remember what the fight was about, it started with one thing and suddenly a ton of other sensitive subjects came to the surface. It was just the two of you shouting at each other about things that maybe didn’t even occur, but the fight came too far to stop.
“Let’s break up” You said loudly once he slung another insult at your head, about you never supporting the things he did in life like being in N.flying or drumming. The fight had lasted long enough, you had ended it with just three words.
It grew painfully quiet between you two, nothing was said for a few seconds, the tension replaced by sadness and maybe disbelief. Neither of you said something anymore, though it was Jaehyun who took the first step towards you, his hands extending to take yours.
Jaehyun was able to take your hands in his and hold them, it could be the last time for all that he knew. “Dance with me.” he requested, he started to lead you to dance to the silence that filled the room. The dance was slow, somewhat uncoordinated, others would have clearly seen how gloomy the movements appeared to be.
“I’m never letting you go” He whispered, the time of avoiding your eyes had been over, he directly looked into them. Instead of guilt, it was regret, the regret of ever making you think breaking up was the only option, regret as he completely buried your confidence with the words that he said. “I should apologize but I know it will never be enough, I’ll gain your trust again and help you to love me again”
You listened to every single word that left his lips, the apology which at the same time wasn’t one made you feel as if he was genuine about the promise he just made to you. “Kiss me” You whispered, in need to feel the love he promised to bring back from your side. He did as he was told, and you realized he didn’t need to learn you how to love him because you had never stopped loving him.
you bite your tongue as you try not to cry while jaehyun holds you close. you squeeze him tight, savoring the feeling of his arms around you.
"i'll miss you, dummy," you say quietly as he lets you out of his embrace. you quickly wipe the tears from your eyes, for you know if he were to see them, he'd make fun of you for crying and never let you live it down. you smile as you look up at him, and he tilts his head, looking at you admirably. you loved jaehyun, he was your best friend, and you were going off to college for the year, which was always a hard departure to make. he was your rock; you grew up together, you had become closer than ever.
"i have to tell you something before you go," jaehyun said softly, grabbing your hands. you guys held hands before, but never like the way he held yours in that moment. you wanted to cry again. "i really like you. more than a friend. and i'm sorry if that ruins things, but you deserve to know. it's not something i wanna keep to myself anymore."
your mouth opened slightly as if you were about to speak, but no words came out. you bit your lip, and jaehyun dropped your hands. "you don't have to say anything. just know that i love you, a lot."
you hugged him tight again. he slowly but surely hugged you back, and you kissed the area of his neck that you could reach. you felt his cheek swell against your head as he smiled to himself.
your shoulders are tense with pain, your back feels numb from carrying the weight of the day along with you for the past several hours. you sigh deeply as your body falls onto the bed, and you try your best to just close your eyes, quiet your mind, and relax.
seunghyub notices you immediately go to the bedroom, which is always code for you had a rough day. you don't turn around to meet his presence, which tells him even more what you had been feeling.
the past several weeks had been hard on you; work, school, relationships, and feelings of homesickness and overwhelming nostalgia had been weighing you down. your life hadn't been so hectic before, and on top of all the usual things, it seemed as though you were alone in the world, despite having someone as wonderful as seunghyub.
as he crawled up behind you to cuddle you, you thought to yourself, i don't deserve him. how can i feel so alone, yet have such wonderful people around me? especially him?
you grab his hand as he throws his arm over your body.
"i love you," he says. he knows not to ask you questions when you're feeling down like this. "you're strong, and i'm so proud of you for getting through today. the world needs you. i need you."
the words fell from his lips like raindrops, and you felt every pebble of water land on your skin like it was a knife to the chest. you had known seunghyub for years and years, ever since you were both teenagers, and now, you had matured into successful young adults. you had always loved seunghyub, in a platonic, friendly way.
but for him, it was all different.
“i know it’s weird, and we’ve known each other forever, but i can’t help it, and you deserve to know. i’m in love with you.”
you were standing outside your front door, and he was walking you up to your apartment after you enjoyed a nice dinner together after not seeing one another for several months. you had both become busy with your personal lives, you both started new, full-time jobs, and had lived rather far apart. was this innocent get together you just had really a date?
“seunghyub, i—“
“i’m sorry, i shouldn’t have said anything. i don’t want to ruin our friendship.”
you freeze for a moment as he begins to walk away. you watch him go back to his car, and he doesn’t back at you a single time. you feel your heart break inside your chest. you can’t let him leave like this, you don’t know if it will be the last time you see him. you care about seunghyub too much to let him go this easily. maybe, you really did love him as more than a friend, the way your heart began to race and the butterflies started flying around your stomach as his words repeated in your head.
“wait,” you shouted, and seunghyub turned around. his eyes looked sullen, like his heart had been torn in pieces. the look on his face broke you inside. you never wanted him to feel so sad. you ran up to him, you grabbed his face in your hands, cupping his cheeks, and kissed him tenderly. he didn’t kiss back at first, until you pulled away and put your hands on his shoulders. you breathe in his aura, and you feel at peace. seunghyub always made you feel that way—like nothing could hurt you. he always made you feel secure, whether it be physically or emotionally. you loved seunghyub. you always did, and you always would. but maybe in a new perspective after that night.
little scenarios where the nfies confess their love to you.
seunghyub ♡
“you need to know that i have grown to care for you. deeply. you’re all i can think about."
you skipped out onto the field like a princess in a movie, pretending seunghyub was your prince charming, even though you both had hidden your feelings for one another. you had no idea how he truly felt about you—all his signals were mixed, sometimes being touchy and flirty with you, other days, acting like your annoying best friend. either way, you wanted him so bad, it was killing you inside.
seunghyub layed out the blanket and picnic basket, then pulling out some of the snacks he packed for the both of you. you stole a grape as seunghyub watched you fondly. you looked up at him, throwing a grape towards his mouth, and he opened wide, trying to catch it—to no avail. you chuckled as he tried to get back at you. you pushed him away, though, avoiding his wrath.
“you suck,” he joked. you stuck your tongue out at him.
seunghyub smiles to you as he starts playing some music on his phone. the song that streams from the speakers in particular brings you butterflies. he knows this is your favorite song he’s written, especially since he told you he wrote it with you in mind. the way the instruments flowed with the vocals seemed to touch you in a way his previous works couldn’t.
he grabbed your hands as he approached you. you both swayed to the rhythm of the song, dancing through the small field of grass surrounding you, seunghyub making sure the flower you picked for him was snug behind his ear. he spinned you around, and you chuckled as he pulls you back in for a hug.
when you are done swaying and dancing together, you collapsed onto the bed of flowers that sprouted from the ground, looking at one another lovingly.
“you need to know that i have grown to care for you. deeply. you’re all i can think about,” seunghyub commented. and the speakers from his phone sang, how about that night, with the stars melting in the background; below are our promises, that night when it all comes true.
seunghyub looked at you with a more serious glare, and you know he’s pouring his heart out to you in that moment. you swallowed hard as you try to think of a response. he pursed his lips, turning to lay on his back again. you rolled over onto your stomach, stretching an arm across seunghyub’s body, pulling him closer. your faces were so close, you thought he was going to kiss you for a moment, but he stayed still. “you’re so beautiful.”

cha hun ♡
"don't make me say it. i can't say the words."
you jump with excitement as you leave the concert venue, the adrenaline from the loud music and flashing lights still igniting you. “god, that was amazing! the guitar solo in that last song was just phenomenal. you’re amazing.”
your new friend, cha hun, was in a band—and a good one, for that matter. you had always been a music nerd, and when he invited you to one of their shows, you were hesitant at first, only planning to stay for a few songs. but as soon as you heard the first song in their set, you were hooked. partially thanks to the great music they had written, the other part how enthralled you were by the way cha hun played his guitar. he got so lost in it, the way he concentrated on the instrument was amusing to you.
hun looked up at you as you reached the band’s van, where he started loading up the guitars and amps he brought with him. the other members were staying out for a night on the town, while cha hun and you planned to go home and watch a movie. he usually got tired after gigs, and tonight he invited you over for a drink afterward. you originally said no, but the performance he and his members gave lit a fire beneath you—you wanted to spend more time with him.
“thanks, i’m glad you came,” hun said as he closed the doors to the van. he looked at you, then at the ground. “that last song, actually, we…we didn’t have it on the setlist at first. it’s still new, but i wanted you to hear it.”
you smiled as you both began to walk down the street to the bus stop. hun put his hands in his pockets, fighting the urge to hold your hand. “i loved it. the lyrics, the rhythms, the chord progressions…it’s a perfect song.”
he smiled at you genuinely and you felt butterflies in your stomach. it was a weird feeling, especially to have so early in your friendship with hun. was there something more, deep down?
“what’s the song about?” you asked, curious as to why hun wanted you specifically to hear it.
hun chuckled and paused. he looked up at the sky, then back at you, then at the ground. you neared the bus stop, and he still hadn’t answered your question.
“come on. i’m curious,” you pressed, until hun let out a sigh. you knew deep down already that it was written about someone special, and you just hoped that person was you. the words replayed in your head; you make me high, baby, you make me high.
“you.”
you knew it. you smiled to yourself. “why?”
hun looked at you. “don’t make me say it. i can’t say the words.”
the bus pulled forward, and you looked at hun for a moment before looking down at his hands. you hesitated, but grabbed his hand, lacing your fingers between his. he smiled as he looked up at you. you both knew this was the beginning of something beautiful.

jaehyun ♡
"i am sorry you found out this way."
you were so excited for that night — you finally had the free time to spend with your closest friends, and getting able to let loose and just have a good time was what you really needed after the long work hours you had done.
you entered the bar and looked far and wide for your friends, until you saw one familiar face behind the bar. you slithered through the crowded space full of people either dancing to the music or chatting among themselves. you made it to your friends, standing behind two of them who had been doing most of the talking.
“is y/n coming? you should totally tell them how you feel, if you’re ready,” you overheard one friend say. you wanted to butt into the conversation, since it obviously concerned you, but your nerves took over and you paused in your spot behind them. your friend had been conversing with the new boy who just started hanging out with you all—jaehyun. he had a very different personality from the rest of you—he was outgoing, energetic, and super high-spirited all the time, it seemed.
“i’m definitely not saying shit. i’m too scared. they’re just so…i’m kind of in love with them,” jaehyun said. you opened your mouth to speak, but nothing came out, especially as the other turned around, facing you, eyes widening.
“oh—”
jaehyun then turned around too, his hand immediately going to his mouth, covering it as his eyes also widened.
“y/n, hi, god, i’m—”
you chuckled nervously. “it’s okay, jaehyun, i think it’s cute…” you felt immediately like you were going to throw up. you never considered jaehyun to be more than a friend, but you did love being around him. before you could process what he was doing, you were being dragged outside by jaehyun himself who had his hand around your wrist tight.
“i am sorry you found out this way. i wanted to ask you out personally, i’ve just been so nervous, you kind of scare me sometimes, not in a bad way—i’m just a wimp, and i—”
jaehyun stopped talking as you kissed his cheek softly. he gasped and let out a small noise of excitement, and you smiled, putting a hand on his shoulder.
“it’s okay. let’s go out next weekend, yeah?”
jaehyun giggled and clapped. “Okay.”

hweseung ♡
"there isn't anything that i wouldn't do for you."
hweseung took your hand as you walked through the pathway in the amusement park. you felt your hands getting clammy, but you didn’t want to let go. you felt so happy, so secure, having hweseung holding onto you, especially in front of all the people passing by. you felt proud being with him, even despite the fact that neither of you had confessed any real feelings to one another.
not that you necessarily needed to; you knew you liked hweseung, and you were pretty sure he liked you. he just had never said the fact, and neither did you. you figured it was unnecessary.
but hweseung didn’t; he needed you to know how he truly felt for you. the words came tumbling out that night, after he had won you a big plushie from a game, to which you excitedly jumped up and down and hugged him tight.
“thank you for busting your ass for this plushie,” you chuckled as you hugged the plushie, which was a rather-large elephant toy, made of a soft fleece material. hweseung giggled as you gushed.
“there isn’t anything i wouldn’t do for you.”
you wanted to start crying. no one had ever shown that they cared so much for you before. hweseung did it in all different ways—acts of kindness, reassuring words, gifts, little reminders. he was always making sure you knew how appreciated you were, and you were forever grateful. you just never knew how to tell him that.
“you can’t say that,” you groaned. “i’ll…i’ll cry.”
“i’m here to wipe any tears,” hweseung retorted. “but don’t cry, you’re too pretty to cry.”
you pouted, and he grabbed your cheeks, kissing your forehead softly. “i am so very in love with you.”

dongsung ♡
"after everything you've done, i still love you. with all i am."
it was your best friend’s birthday, and of course, you decided to throw him a surprise party. dongsung was always the type to go along with the crowd and not stand out, as he liked it, but you wanted to show him how special he was to you. so you worked on planning the best birthday party possible.
you invited all his friends, who were hiding in the bedroom next to the open area of your apartment. dongsung finally arrived, and he greeted you with the same bright smile he always wore when he saw you. he had an aura about himself that was always comforting to you. you gave him a warm hug before you walked inside. you then moved over to the door, telling dongsung, “let me grab your gift!”
then, out walked his friends, yelling “surprise!” and the look on his face was the most rewarding thing ever. you grinned as you went up behind him, giving him a tight hug. “happy birthday, sungie.”
the night progressed, until you were outside on a balcony by yourself, trying to get away from the loud noises and crowded space. dongsung found you, like he always did when you’re feeling overwhelmed, and tried to comfort you. he grabbed your hand and you smiled at him as he sat next to you. you looked out at the night sky, then back at dongsung, who stared at your hands.
“thank you for tonight. i’ve never been surprised before—it was so sweet of you,” dongsung said, breaking the silence.
“of course, sungie. you’re my best friend. i love you.”
dongsung sighed and smiled small. “you shouldn’t say that anymore.”
you furrowed your eyebrows, confused. “what do you mean? i really do—“
“because i’m actually in love with you.”
you paused, your heart sinking into your stomach. you looked over at dongsung, who was biting his lip and bouncing his leg anxiously.
he let go of your hand and stood up. “i shouldn’t have said that, i’m sorry, i’ll go—”
“wait. you…you like me?”
dongsung sighed, grabbing your hand again. “i thought you felt the same. i feel like you’ve been leading me on, and i’ve got caught up in it. don’t you think?”
you pursed your lips and looked down at your lap. you did give dongsung lots of attention—hugs, cheek kisses, causal i love yous, but never did you expect him to fall for you. you couldn’t lie to yourself and say you were upset. dongsung was one of the most handsome people you laid eyes on. his warm smile, bright eyes, loving personality—there wasn’t anything to not love about him.
“after everything you’ve done, i still love you. with all i am.”
seunghyub: seunghyub would be worried about you all the time if you were sick, just wanting to grant you some relief. he’d keep track of all your medications on his phone, also watching how much water you’re drinking to make sure you’re drinking enough. he’d also give you soft forehead kisses, just barely there, because he knows how sensitive you feel when you’re ill.
cha hun: hun is the perfect companion when sick. he asks you how you’re doing every now and then, but doesn’t do it an overbearing amount. he makes sure you’re comfortable and gives you the space you need while still showing he cares. he gives you his sweatshirt to wear to keep you warm and plays soft guitar music for you to help you sleep.
jaehyun: jaehyun can get a bit overbearing when you’re sick, but it all comes from a good place. he’s constantly asking how you’re feeling, making sure you’re drinking water, and lowering the volume on the tv so it’s not too loud on your ears. he asks you constantly what he can do to help, and no matter how many times you tell him you’re fine, he’s finding a way to cheer you up or give you some relief.
hweseung: hweseung would be the type to cuddle you to help you sleep when you’re ill. he’d big-spoon you, gently wrapping his arms around you, and would softly sing you to sleep. he had a roster of your favorite slower-tempo songs he had written that he loved to sing for you, and he made sure to do so when you’re feeling under the weather, just to cheer you up a little.
dongsung: dongsung, like cha hun, would give you space while still checking in on you to make sure you’re doing okay. he’d do some work or practice bass quietly in the same room as you as you rested, turning around every so often to make sure you’re okay. when you were asleep, he’d watch you, stroking your hair softly to help you stay cozy.
