Requested: Hello! Can I request a Key x reader friends with benefits scenario where they both fall for each other? Thanks!
Description: You and Key have been friends since you two debuted around the same time. While he was making a name for himself in SHINee, you were growing in popularity in the acting field. Over time you both went through your fair share of dating fails which brought the idea of sex with no strings attached. It worked out for a good amount of time but you start to think if there could be anyone else but Key.

I have been an actress for about ten years now. My hard work definitely precedes me. Being successful never hits you until the recognition from others gets you more and more noticed. Once I had my tenth anniversary fan meeting, the realization of how long I’ve been acting really got to me one way or another.
I started acting when I was sixteen and now being the ripe old age of twenty-six, the work never stops. Currently, I’m working on a drama as the lead. There’s flashbacks in the drama so I have to wear a school uniform which makes me feel like I’m too old to be wearing one.
During touch-ups, my phone rings. A smile slowly comes across my face when I read the name on the screen.
“How can I help you, Kibummie?”
He chuckles through the phone, “From the sound of your voice, it sounds like you’re having fun. Are you filming today?”
“Yeah, they got me in a school uniform. A good way to make me feel older than I actually am.”
“Yah, we’re the same age. Are you calling me old too?”
“I mean if the shoe fits.” We both laugh.
Kibum, or as the world knows him as Key, and I have been friends ever since we were trainees. We also debuted in the same year. Our personalities match which is how we’ve been able to keep in touch even after he became extremely popular with his group, SHINee.
“Alright, ajumma. Do you have time later to get some food?”
I look at the time to see that it’s already past noon, “We still have a few scenes to film until later on.”
“That’s perfect since we have some interviews to do until then. So we can have dinner?”
I nod, “Yeah, that sounds good. I’ll see you then.”
Normally times like this where we hang out by the end of the day leads to something else. That being something we’ve been doing for nearly a year.
Kibum and I have always been there for each other, especially during the ups and downs of dating. Either we’ve been cheated on, dumped, or the relationship just didn’t work. We always found ourselves comforting each other. Until one night, we had gotten a little too drunk and we ended up sleeping together. At first, we felt regretful about it and decided to act like nothing happened, which we did, and it felt nice to not have to worry about anything afterwards. That’s when we came up with the idea of having a friends with benefits type of relationship.
As of late, my feelings have been failing me.
I meet up with Kibum at our favorite bbq restaurant. I wait as he starts cooking the meat professionally like he always does.
“How’s filming going?” He asks.
“It’s going well. All we can hope for is good ratings afterall.”
He scoffs, “You’re saying that like it’s difficult. Nearly every drama you’ve been in has had high ratings, you know why?”
I smile waiting for him to give me a compliment, “Why?”
“You always scare the leading guy so he’s pressured enough to always picking up the slack.” I slouch, I should’ve known he wasn’t going to give me some sort of praise. “Don’t think it’s because of your acting skills.”
I fake laugh, “Of course not, that’s why I’ve won multiple acting awards which reminds me when are you gonna get one?”
He gives me a side glance, “I’m not the one dressed up as a high school student in my mid twenties.”
“Didn't you dress like a student once?”
He nods, “Yeah but I was handsome in that uniform. I can't say the same for you.”
After a few more savage banters between us, we finally quiet down by eating. There was also talk about work and his upcoming comeback with SHINee. I managed to keep the conversation away from his variety show filming with BoA. I like her but sometimes I feel like second best compared to her.
The meet from the grill is nearly gone so I reach over to grab a piece of meat from the far side. I end up burning my wrist against the edge of the grill. I pull it back to swallow the pain of the burn. I blow the hot spot even though I know it wouldn’t help.
“Are you okay?” Kibum asks watching me deal with the pain.
I nod “Yeah, I’m fine. That’s what I get for being greedy.”
“Here,” he grabs my hand to reveal the burn mark, “Tomatoes help reduce the heat.” He takes half of a tomato to rub around the tender spot.
As I watch him, I begin to feel butterflies in my stomach. It wasn’t the first time too. I found myself paying more attention to the little things that Kibum does that I never realized had any effect on me. In some ways, I’d hope that he would just scold me like he usually would and say ‘How can you be so greedy for the brisket to burn yourself, dummy.’
Instead, I was gawking at Kibum and seeing him in a whole different light. I saw him as not only my friend but someone that I wanted to have an intimate relationship with instead of a sexual one. If I wanted to keep the friendship I have with him, I’ll have to stop the benefits before my feelings eat away at me.
After we finished eating, Key and I go back to his apartment. We usually finish up the night with some beer and soju which usually leads to other things. We end up sitting on the couch drinking and talking about whatever comes to mind.
In my sudden hard thinking, I feel Kibum’s hand putting pressure on my shoulder, “What are you thinking about that’s got you extremely tensed in the shoulders?” He asks.
I shake my head, “Just work. It’s nothing.”
He begins to trail his lips across my shoulder blades until he leans in close enough that his chest is touching my arm. His breath starts to tickle my ear causing the familiar sensation between my legs to radiate like usual.
I honestly don’t want to have another night with him like this but the selfish side of me can’t help it.
Looking up at him, our lips meet. His body leans into mine, pushing me down onto the couch. I part my legs wide enough to let his waist come closer. I let out a moan when I feel his erection press into me, causing friction to my core.
Kibum pulls away but his lips continue to move from jaw down to my neck, “Don’t think about anything. Just keep your eyes on me.” He whispers.
Looking into his eyes, unable to say anything, I nod.
I’ve decided that this would be the last time we’d do this. It would hurt me too much to pretend like nothing was going on with me. Over time, it would get to the point where I wouldn’t be able to let go of Kibum and I wouldn’t be able to have him as a friend.
The following morning, Kibum and I had fallen asleep on the couch. I woke up to the sight of his sleeping face and his arms wrapped around me. It took a lot of willpower to get up out of his grasp. I wanted so desperately to stay like that for as long as possible, but it was only making things worse for me.
I started getting dressed when I hear Kibum move around on the couch. I take a breath to think about what I was going to say.
“It’s still early. You should stay for breakfast.” He says before getting up to put his boxers on.
I finish getting dressed when I just say what I have to before it gets even more complicated, “Let’s stop doing this.”
He chuckles, “What? Having breakfast together?”
I turn to look at him, “No, let’s stop having sex with each other.”
There’s an awkward silence until he finally says something, “Why all of a sudden?”
“I don’t know about you but I’m getting bored with all this. We’ve been doing this no strings attached thing for a year now. Maybe it’s time for us to get back into the real world of dating again.”
“Is what we have not working for you anymore?” He asks with a serious tone.
I shake my head, “I love you, Kibum but we already know that nothing more will come from us doing this for much longer. That was our arrangement, friends with benefits. I’d like to keep the friendship.”
Kibum sighs then shrugs his shoulders, “Fine, consider the benefits gone.”
It hurt to hear him say it so matter-of-fact. Deep down I wanted him to fight for me but instead, he did what I’d expect him to do. I can’t hate him for it since this was what was going to happen eventually. It’s time to get back to reality. A hard pill to swallow.
As the days went by, Kibum and I had gone back to our usual routine before the arrangement. We were talking like nothing had changed. I subconsciously began to avoid him in hopes that he wouldn’t bring up the topic or I’d give in if he wanted to do something more again. I felt terrible since I ended it so it wouldn’t affect our friendship but I was putting a dent in it myself.
I was able to keep my mind occupied with work. We were filming the intense scenes today so it helped me get some of my inner turmoil out and it also made for good content.
The director had called for us to take a break. I head towards the food truck that Kibum had sent me when I noticed that one figure standing near it that wasn’t his picture.
I put on a smile as I approached him, “Kibummie, what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be doing promotions today?”
“I finished them early. I thought I’d come and see how work was going.”
I nod, “It’s going pretty well. We just got done shooting the emotional scenes today.” He hands me a cup of coffee that was from the food truck, “Thanks for the truck. I’m not sure how many more photos of yourself you could’ve put on it though.”
He chuckles but his laugh seems different than usual, “I know that you don’t get tired of seeing my face so I figured it was necessary.”
The more I stare at him the more I begin to sense something is up. Taking the initiative I ask, “What’s wrong? You seem different than usual.”
He sighs, “I wanna know the real reason.”
I gasp wishing that he had actually gotten over it, “I already told you.
He scoffs, “I tried to accept your reasoning but I don’t feel like it’s true.”
I start to panic, wondering if I should tell him the truth or not. Instead, I continue to lie, “We can’t keep doing this for the rest of our lives. It’s better if you move on from the idea now. We tried it and it worked for the time that we needed to recover from our past relationship failures.”
“I don’t wanna just move on.”
I should’ve known doing this for as long as we did would cause this kind of drama. I really wanted to preserve the friendship that Kibum and I had but it seems like things won’t be going back to the way it was.
“Don’t you get it? Eventually we’ll need love and affection, the kind friends can’t give to each other.”
He stares at me for the longest time before taking a step towards me, “What if I told you that the only love and affection that I want is from you.”
My heart races as I comprehend his sudden confession, “What?”
Kibum takes my hand in his and squeezes it, “For some time I’ve been having these feelings. I couldn’t describe them but when you told me that you wanted to stop our deal, my heart broke. As time went by, I started to feel like I was missing something. I had missed feeling your touch. That’s when I realized that what I was feeling towards you wasn’t the type you’d have for a friend.”
“It’s became more than you could handle.” I say knowing exactly how he felt since it had been what I was going through recently. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
He smiles, “I was scared that it would ruin our relationship if you didn’t feel the same way.”
Every bit of emotion hits me. Kibum was feeling the same romantic confusion as I was. All this time I was scared of losing him but in fact we were only growing closer as our intimate time together went on.
“For how long?” I ask.
“Since the first time. I felt guilty for feeling that way since I figured you wouldn’t have wanted a relationship.”
“I thought you wouldn’t have wanted it. That’s why I ended it.”
Kibum laughs, “Maybe we are meant for each other since we’re both so dense.”
“So where do we go from here?” I ask wondering if this was really happening between us.
He smiles before interlocking his hand with mine, “What are you doing after work? Would you like to go on a date?”
SHINee Kibum x GF One shot: “Itchy Babe” Request by @key-smut
————————————
You are currently lying in your shared bed on top of the soft cool sheets wearing only your favorite loose fit pajama shirt with no bra and a comfortable pair of black pajama shorts.
You scroll through his Instagram profile and smile softly at how wonderful your boyfriend is and start to wonder when he will get home.
At that exact moment a very sleepy Kibum opens your shared bedroom door as he walks in and looks into your eyes with a sweet gaze and soft smile before he says, “I’m tired baby.”
You nod your head and softly reply with “I know Kibummie.” “Can we cuddle and can you please scratch my back it’s been itchy since I came out of my car.” He cutely pouts while trying to reach the itch but failing adorably. You giggle and nod your head then reach both arms to him indicating to cuddle.
Instead he lies next to you and pulls you into his embrace to cuddle.
He smiles gently when you reach both hands underneath his shirt to scratch everywhere on his back.
Kibum has always been known to take care of you or anyone he loves genuinely. So he decides since you love receiving a back scratch that this is the perfect way to begin the day.
You flutter both of your eyes due to his fingers dancing all across your back. “How does that feel sweetheart?” He looks up and smiles when he notices your happy reaction and kisses the top of your head before closing his eyes.
“Aw haha are you itchy babe?” He chuckles at the way you melt like putty at his relaxing touch. “No.” You softly retort back “but you sweet love are one itchy babe.” You tease sweetly “and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Kibum smiles contently at your words and the itchiness is slowly disappearing as he still scratches your back softer and slower as he mumbles, “ I love you honey.” You come to the realization that your itchy kitten of a sweet boyfriend fell asleep when his soft hands dancing across your back come to a stop.
You look up then snuggle closer and whisper before being lured back to sleep, “I love you too my beautiful itchy babe.”
SHINee Kibum(Key) x GF one shot:“Insta Itches” ~Pure Fluff~
——————————–
Kibum and you are currently
cuddling in your shared bed during his insta live. Suddenly your kitten like boyfriend flinches a bit when a major itch crawls all across his back.
His expression switches from a smile to an adorable rising panic expression on his face which you notice and then ask in front of the shawols/lil freaks watching, “aww babe are you itchy? You only make that face when you are REALLY itchy.” Kibum looks and sighs quietly to himself and says with a slight urge in his voice, “yes honey my back is REALLY REALLY REALLY itchy all over. Can you PLEASE scratch it baby please???”
you giggle quietly then you reach under his pajama shirt and scratch really good. You can tell it feels amazing due to the soft smile followed by a lil satisfied purr as your boyfriend flutters his eyes closed due to your touch.
Then as you continue to scratch he starts talking to his fans again. Each time you get a really hard to reach spot Kibum melts like putty then says “just so you know honey after this insta live and once my back will stop being so itchy-”
you smile and scratch another spot that makes him look like a little kitty “I will give you the best back scratch and cuddle ever.”
You chuckle softly and kiss the back of his neck as he ends the insta live. “Thank you for taking care of me babe.” He smiles and turns to face you indicating his itch is gone.
“Wanna cuddle while I return the favor?” He speaks softly with a smile. “I would love that Bummie.”
Kibum wraps his right arm around you gently pulling you closer to him as he pulls your pajama shirt up almost all the way and gives you a loving back scratch. You flutter your eyes closed and say, “this is how you felt honey?”
He simply nods and kisses you on the top of your head. The night continues with more cuddles until you both fall sound asleep together.

SHINee BF Oneshot:Key(Kibum) cuddling with you at home after a long day of individual schedules w/out his members. ~fluffy comfort TBH~ -------------------------------------- You come out of the bathroom in your favorite soft pajama shirt and comfortable shorts as you stop and let your eyes adjust to the dim bedroom only lit by the soft glow of the bedside lamps. You silently walk over to him sitting up in bed with a pillow placed behind his back while his glasses are set perfectly on the frame of his nose as he scrolls calmly through his Instagram feed. Without looking up at you, Kibum wraps his right arm around your waist underneath your top and lightly caresses the skin with his recently manicured nails. A few seconds later he gently faces his phone down to look up into your eyes and say with a warm small smile, "I've missed you today honey." "You took the words right out of my mouth." You reply and giggle slightly. Then he removes his wrapped arm set on your waist to take your left hand as you are gently pulled on the bed next to him lying on your stomach gazing into his eyes. Kibum pulls up your shirt just a little and begins tracing small circles into your skin. "How was your day babe?" You ask with your eyes closed due to his fingers dancing on the little part of your back. Kibum sighs and softly confesses, " as much as I love being an idol..it's really exhausting sometimes." You just nod your head in response and flutter your eyes open to lift up your right hand and softly caress his cheek letting him know that's it's okay to feel like this every now and then. "Babe, you are amazing. I'm super proud of you." You answer honestly, "and just saying even if you never became an idol I would still love you and be proud to call you mine." He smiles softly while leaning over to brush his lips against your own only to kiss you gently and whisper " I love you baby." In response you kiss him again and say " I love you too sweetheart." Kibum pulls you into a comfortable embrace and runs his hands up and down your clothed back. A technique he discovered one night when he lightly scratched your back in bed after a long day of work and you fell asleep almost immediately in his arms. You melt like putty when your boyfriend does this and Kibum definitely knows it. "Bummie?" "Yeah?" "I love you~" You mumble as you fall asleep in his embrace. He smiles sweetly and pulls the sheets over you both still resuming the soft scratching across your clothes back until he falls sound asleep snuggled up with you ready for the next day to come.

SHINee Kibum(Key) BF Scenario:
————————————–
“Honey?…are you 100% sure you want to help me design my stage outfit for SHINee World 6 concert?” your boyfriend asks while clearly taken aback by your sudden curiousity.
You nod your head and take your right hand in his left to intertwine your fingers together.
“Baby pleaseeee? I know it’s not easy to do and besides, you shouldn’t have to do it alone.” You plead with those big puppy dog eyes he can never resist.
He closes his almond feline like eyes as he uses his free hand and scratches his head to think about this before looking back at you to sigh softly and say “okay love you can help BUT… please don’t touch any of the supplies when I’m not in the room.”
You smile and reach up to give him a soft kiss on the cheek and whisper “Thank you I promise you won’t regret it!” Which makes him melt and smile at your adorableness.
*10 minutes later*
You are both cuddled up on your couch as you look for the 3rd time at your new bandage set on your index finger.
Everything was running smoothly until you accidentally pricked your index finger with a needle.
“Sorry babe.” you look up at him as you laugh awkwardly “I guess maybe I shouldn’t have tried to help.”
He smiles softly placing a gentle kiss on your lips, “it’s okay sweetheart, I had a feeling this would happen i’m just happy that you were willing to take a chance and try something different.”
Kibum brings you closer and begins to rub your back underneath your shirt as your eyes flutter to a close from the comforting touch.
SHINee Oneshot: Kibum x You “lazy cozy date” as platonic best friends NOT romantic ~Fluffy & cuddly~
————————————
Kibum’s arm is wrapped around your waist as you are both snuggled up together under a soft warm blanket on the couch in the living room in your apartment where you live together.
“Does this feel nice honey?” He asks as he runs his free hand through your hair.
You nod ‘yes’, close your eyes and lean your head onto his chest.
He chuckles to himself while turning on the TV to a F.R.I.E.N.D.S show marathon and places the remote on the left table.
“I’m happy we live together Bum.” “Because my favorite days are just being snuggly together like this. You know?”
You open your eyes slowly as Kibum smiles,kisses the top of your head and begins rubbing your back with the hand formerly on your waist.
A few minutes pass by as Comme Des plus Garçons occasionally run up to be pet by you both from your current comfortable position on the couch.
“Hey babe?” You ask him as you shift closer into his embrace.
“Yeah love?”
While expecting an answer from you he looks confused until he notices a special look on your face with a hopeful smile that he understands you.
Kibum immediately recognizes this look and softly begins scratching your back on top of the pajama shirt.
“Aisssh. What is it with you and you loving my back scratches?” He teases only because he loves you and you know that he actually loves when you give him that look.
“I can’t help it if my best friends back scratches feel incredible!” You retort and tease back to him.
He rolls his eyes and scoffs slightly but continues to scratch.
Comme Des is a VERY smart dog so, he sometimes becomes jealous when seeing Kibum giving his friends especially his best friend/roommate (you) a massage,back rub, or back scratch.
Comme Des whines at the lack of attention on his end until he is picked up and brought into your lap by yourself as you relax him and stroke his soft curly fur.
“HAHA” he laughs “aigoo is my puppy jealous of my human puppy??”
You hit his chest not too hard but just enough and receive his loud but loveable laugh and a “hey hey relax love I’m just kidding!”
You both look into each other’s eyes and laugh softly and resume the current cuddling.
“Hey Kibummie..I love you. You are hands down my ultimate best friend.”
He smiles wrapping both arms around your waist and kisses your cheek gently then presses his cheek into your cheek closing his eyes before asking,
“Still want me to continue the back scratch?”
“Yes please”
He chuckles and uses both hands to scratch your back as you are still in his warm embrace.
A few seconds pass before he says,“ I love you too honey and you’ve always been the most important person to me since the day we met.”
