me??? posting art here??? its more likely than youd think-

[stroni-bomb]

So guys,,, I'm finding the thought of having to write a series for all the members a little daunting.... would you guys be against a massive time skip where most members find their mates? And then I'll write a series for the ones who haven't? To save confusion I'll write a one shot/backstory for all the members who do find their mates before I start any series. I'll write the stories which I've been most excited for and looking forward to,,, would you guys hate me for that?

CHAPTER TEN

It had been around three months since Jaemin and Jeno had come out to you all, a week later they had told the whole swimming club, the girls included, that they were in fact dating. It was cute how welcoming everyone was to it, in fact Yuta had made a bet with everyone that they were together and ended up rich at the end of the day.

You and Kyungmi were best friends still, you and Hyosonn had also become closer and even Hyunjae made conversation with you. Jaehwa still was off though she put up with you more and both Eunjung and Chunhei seemed to be tolerating you too.

You had become closer with the dream team plus you, Mark and Lucas were practically inseparable now. You'd spend most of your days either at their houses or your own, being wrapped up in a quilt and surrounded by snacks as you'd sit and watch films together. You were mainly all together, the ten of you, including Kyungmi, just snuggled up either on the bed or on the floor and talking about life or how your days had gone.

"Y/N, when are you coming to our college?" Lucas had asked you once, you and Mark were sitting side by side whilst Lucas had taken up his bed with his long body.

You tutted, "Lucas I've already told you that they haven't accepted me yet! They're looking for a reference and don't really want to contact my old school in Chicago so it's taking even longer."

Mark glanced at you and smiled at your pout, "just turn up with us. They'd never know, you'd fit right in."

"Maybe..." You had trailed off, remembering what both your parents had told you.

You heard the bed shift under Lucas' weight as he flopped his head down next to yours, "a penny for your thoughts?"

You and Mark both burst out laughing, Lucas' serious tone entertaining the both of you more than it should have. "Dude!" Mark laughed, reaching over you and pulling him off of the bed with a thump, "that was so cringe."

"Ow!" He yelled, rubbing his head which he bumped on the way down, "hey Y/N looked troubled I only wanted to know why!"

"Idiots," you mumbled happily, this trio was the only thing which made you feel like you were still a kid, "it's just my parents, they don't want me going to this college just because two of my friends go there."

"But this college is like-- the best in Seoul?" Mark quizzed and he wasn't wrong, it was a super good school and you'd have wanted to go there even if you didn't know these two.

"I know, they want me to make a presentation of why I want to go there and they said if I mentioned any of you two then it's an immediate no," you flung your head back onto the bed, the stress of college was hitting you and you hadn't even gone to a single class yet.

"It's fine Y/N," Mark had whispered from beside you, "we can always help you make it, who else is better than two college students themselves?"

And that was when you first noticed your feelings for Mark Lee, that was about a month ago and he had kept to his word. He let you borrow his laptop and came round to give you quotes or photos he had taken around school. Lucas tried to help too but a majority of the time he ended up falling asleep in your bed, leaving both you and Mark to do the presentation yourselves.

Now though you were getting ready to go out to town with Mark and Lucas once again, Johnny was getting slightly suspicious of why you hung out so much but you knew secretly he was just being jealous.

"Y/N!" You heard him shout mid doing your hair, you hummed loudly in response, "where does mum keep the cereal?"

"I don't know Johnny, leave me alone I need to get ready!" You yelled back, you had gotten dressed and done minimal makeup but your hair took time and you didn't want to ruin it.

He knocked on your door, something he does to see if he's able to come in. You sighed but let him in anyway, "why are you going out again?"

You rolled your eyes, here we go again, "Johnny it's called having friends, you might not understand that concept but when you have them- you go out together."

"Ouch," he huffed, sitting on the edge of your bed, "but I mean, you never hang out with me anymore sis."

"Johnny," you finished the final touches on your hair then turned to face him, "I love you okay? You're always going to be the number one man in my life."

He looked at you skeptical, "What about dad?"

"Fine, maybe dad's a little bit more above you...you're a very close second though!" He smiled, opening his arms wide for you.

"Just stop growing up, okay Y/N?" You giggled, slapping his chest lightly.

"I'll see what I can do Johnny."

The sound of your doorbell ringing made the both of you jump, you quickly jumped out of Johnny's arms and ran to the door.

"Very close second, sure Y/N," Johnny muttered under his breath as he trailed after you.

"Y/N!" Lucas screamed pulling you into a hug, "you ready to get your shop on? You haven't eaten today right? We want to go to all those small snack bars and try something from each one!"

"Back it up buddy," Johnny deadpanned, coming up behind you.

Lucas quickly let go and hid behind Mark, everyone knew that Mark and the dream team were the only ones Johnny could tolerate being around you, Lucas would've been too if he hadn't been caught flirting with you by Johnny.

"Hey hyung, we will meet you at the club later alright?" Mark said, doing his usual hand shake with your brother.

"That's fine Mark, see you guys," Johnny hugged you one more time, "have fun Y/N, not too much fun though."

"Yh yh, see you oppa."

You closed the door behind you, giving the two boys in front of you a bright smile, "so who's driving today?"

Lucas gave Mark a light shove from behind him signalling that Mark would be your driver for today. The three of you walked down the few flights of stairs, saying anything random that came to mind and laughing about it like it was the funniest thing in the world.

***

You had gone to multiple shops already, not one of you had bought anything yet but you didn't need to, you were having enough fun chasing Lucas around the different aisles with Mark worrying behind you about being kicked out.

"I'm hungry," Lucas said out of nowhere, eying up the rows of restaurants and fast food chains.

"When aren't you?" Mark smirked, earning a punch in the arm from the taller boy.

"I'm quite hungry too," you mumbled as your stomach rumbled quietly, "should we go to that noodle bar?"

The boys followed your finger and nodded. You three walked over to the place, Lucas opened the door and immediately burst out laughing, "Jisung! LeLe! Kyungmi!" He cried, walking in further so both you and Mark could come in.

"What are you guys doing here?" Jisung groaned, Kyungmi and Chenle were sitting together opposite him. Kyungmi waved, telling you to bring a chair next to her.

Mark too a seat next to Jisung, you sat inbetween Kyungmi and Jisung and Lucas inbetween Chenle and Mark.

"How come you didn't invite anyone else?" Mark questioned, slurping up some of his noodles.

"Same reason you three didn't," Chenle teased.

"You know if you were born in 99 then you'd be able to come on our excursions too," you joked, taking a sip from your drink.

"And if you were apart of maknae line then you'd be invited with us too eonnie," Kyungmi poked you causing you to laugh at her cuteness, "What have you guys done today anyway?"

"Nearly got kicked out of a store thanks to these two idiots," Mark sighed, rolling his eyes.

"Mark getting kicked out of somewhere? That's unheard of," Jisung laughed.

"I know right? But I'm full, when you're all finished you wanna head to the club?" Lucas asked with a raised eyebrow, "I wanna race Y/N again."

"You're on pretty boy," you smirked, you weren't going to lose this time. With an extra three months training on your belt you were sure you could beat him now.

***

"On your marks," Chenle started, you slid your goggles down and made sure your hat was on tight.

"Get set," you readied up, smirking one last time at Lucas then concentrating completely on the water around you.

"Go!"

You set off with a backwards stroke. You blocked out everyone's yells and ignored the splashing of water that came your way as Lucas powerfully attacked the water. You blocked him out completely, it was just you and the water.

Not wanting to lose this time you tried to be even more in tune and to have a rhythm to your strokes. You were practically glaring at the ceiling as you sped down your lane.

You quickly flipped, using your legs to boost off of the back wall and transfered into a front crawl. This was your strong suit.

You quickly edited your rhythm in your mind, remembering to take an ample amount of air when you looked up from the water. Instead of the ceiling being the target of your vicious glare it was now the floor of the pool, and occasionally Lucas if you looked up in his direction.

Before long you hit the finish, flinging your head back out of the water you took the time to catch your breath before tuning in on everyone shouting at you.

"I can't believe I lost..." You heard Lucas pant beside you, his hand running through his hair. Wait, had you won?

"Eonnie! You stormed ahead of Lucas, that was so cool!" Kyungmi yelled as she ran across to you, almost slipping into the pool herself but Chenle steadied her from behind.

"I- I won?" You were dazed, of course you had wanted to win but you never expected that you would.

"Yes dumb dumb, did you not notice?" Chenle laughed, offering his hand to you to lift you out the water, "Lucas was so far behind you!"

"Is anyone gonna help me out?" Lucas grumbled, watching as Jisung also came to grab your other hand.

"I gotchu bro," Mark chuckled, lifting his friend out of the water, "you still raced well, I think that's your fastest time yet."

"Thanks man," he was back to his normal self now, the compliment making him less grumpy, "guess it's one to one now Y/N."

You shrugged, "we should have a decider one time, don't get hurt if I beat you again though."

Kyungmi made a series of 'ooh' noises and Chenle joined her, both finding fun in teasing the older boy.

"I think this loss means you should buy us food hyung," Jisung offered, also taking the time to bully him.

Mark doubled over laughing at Jisung's cheekiness, "he's got you there," he cackled, slapping his friends arm.

Lucas ran his hand through his hair again, his attention focused on you, "fine but you're all limited, Y/N though, you can have whatever you want babe."

"Ewwww Lucas is trying to flirt," Kyungmi scowled in disgust, standing in front of you protectively.

You glanced warily at Mark who had suddenly stopped laughing, "he always does Kyungmi, never learns even after I do this."

Lucas looked at you confused, "do what?"

You slapped the top of his head making him fall back at the sudden pain, "do that!" You howled, the smile returned to Mark's face and the younger ones started crying out of laughter.

"Now...last one to the cafe has to split the bill!" Jisung yelled, dashing towards the doors with everyone else following close behind him.

It seemed like everytime you were going to eat together, it always ended like this. You weren't going to complain though, you enjoyed it.

[stroni-bomb]

So yall...

I'm gonna get this out here because anonymity and I can openly use this platform to rant.

My real dad (at any points after this will be referred to as sperm donor) has never been there for me, he left my mum, called her a slag, refused the fact that he was my biological father, and then left.

Now he's done that to one woman before my mother. And up until yesterday I was only aware that I had 2 older siblings and 5 younger ones, I was not familiar with their names or how old they are. I don't even know the name of my sperm donor.

So yesterday, my aunt rings my mum to say that her new next door neighbour has 5 sons, the two eldest have the same sperm donor as me (He left them, came back, then left again) and it turns out my two older brothers are just a 5 minute walk away.

I have two older brothers.

Yesterday, one of them messaged me (he's 17) and we've been talking throughout today. He's been telling me how he's always wanted a younger sister, especially after our sperm donor stopped him from seeing our youngest sisters (I just mention we are all only half related- not that it matters too much. We share the same dad, not mum) and all because he referred to our sperm donor as 'dad'.

I've never been grateful for my sperm donor. He's a shitty person and has abandoned 4 of his children (I have a younger brother age range 13-14 somewhere out there) and now lives with his 4 other children, but for how long. But for giving me two older brothers, I'm so thankful. I also found out I have a sister in law and a niece on the way!

I've never been so happy,,, so for once in my life I will say. Thank you, dad. But, to this day, my step father will always be the only man I ever refer to as dad.

You gently knocked on the door to the dorm room, you knew you could not only get yourself into trouble but also everyone here but you couldn’t help it, you needed your best friends. The tears carried on streaming down your face, you were stupid for coming here, what if they aren’t even in? What if they aren’t the ones who open the door? You were ready to turn on your heels and run the the bathroom to cry it out but the door opened.

“Oh Y/N.” Mark pulled you into a hug, immediately you burst into more drastic tears and dampened his shoulder. “It’s okay.” He whispered, rubbing circles into your back.

He shuffled you into the dorm and closed the door behind the two of you, he then took hold of your hand and took you to his room. Haechan was sitting on the bed, his smile shifted into an angry frown as he saw the waterfall of tears flooding out of your eyes.

“What did they do this time?” He grumbled, shooting up and hugging you tight. Mark patted your back, they both patiently waited for you to calm down a little so you could tell them the story.

“I broke up with them.” You finally whispered, Haechan moved out of the hug with a shocked look, you heard Mark mutter a small ‘finally’ from beside you as well.

“W-what?” Haechan still couldn’t grasp the situation, “Why are you crying so much, did they hurt you?”

You shook your head and sniffled, remembering how much they had shouted at you, screamed at you to get out of their face as they yelled insult after insult. “I loved them.” You eventually mumbled, you let out a cry wondering why you had ever let yourself get involved with someone so toxic.

“Y/N we know you did, it’s okay to be hurt, it shows you care.” Mark soothed, he ushered you to sit down on his bed and both him and Haechan sat either side of you.

“I’m happy you did it.” Haechan seemed to be talking to himself more than anything, you saw Mark give him a wary look. “Breaking up with them...it must’ve been hard, but you’ll be happy now, which is all I want for you.”

Mark nodded in agreement, “I hate to say it but he’s right. It’ll hurt now, but look to the future, they can’t ever hurt you again.”

“Maybe you’ll see that now they’re gone, the two people that have always loved you will always be right here beside you.” Haechan smiled, ruffling your hair.

“This is the most serious I’ve ever seen him.” 

“You’re right.” You said with a small smile creeping on your face. “Thank you for being here for me, I hope the guys won’t mind me being here.”

“We made you smile~” Haechan cooed, shaking you gently out of happiness.

“The guys won’t mind, they all love you anyway.” Mark reassured you. “But Y/N we are proud of you, for getting yourself out of that situation.”

“Yh we really are, and just like our song goes, we’ll be your home.” 

“Thank you guys.” You started crying again and they both made noises of disapproval, pulling you into a group hug. “These are happy tears I swear~”

“We know we just wanted to hug you.” They both laughed, squeezing you even tighter.

Right then and there. That’s when you realised you had the two bestest friends in the wolrd, the friends you were never going to lose. They were right, they are your home.

No Kiss Goodbye (Renjun)

• It's hard when you're a young vampire who doesn't like the taste of human blood, especially when your family is the most vicious clan in the supernatural world. •

Renjun sat at his desk in the getaway tower, this is where he always came when his family were feeding. He hated what they did, how they lured the innocent into their home, acting as though the castle was a 'tourist attraction'. He couldn't tell if that was worse than what they were doing, the fact that most of these people were foreign and are here on holiday. They're poor families back at home...

Renjun looked out the small barred window, he had tried to run away on many occasions before when it wasn't locked, his family eventually found out and starting putting bars on every window across the castle.

His clan was called bloodlust (Shì xiě in chinese), they were the most renowned clan in the vampire, and supernatural, regions. They were known for their killings in masses and how they killed for fun even when they were full, the castle was a blood shed, no vampire had ever dared to stand up to his clan. They protected themselves by showing how ruthless they were, not Renjun though, never Renjun.

Instead he sat here in his little tower, everyday, every hour, every second. Slowly he was wasting away, he could feel it, though his family never thought twice about it, never really forced him to eat. When he was younger he had to drink, but he was young and naive then, he was never allowed to watch the killings take place instead he was just given a sachet of blood and was told to drink from it. It had looked innocent, he never understood where it came from but when he turned 16 and was seen as old enough to even be a part of this act, he swore to never drink again.

So now he sits there, wasting away, he hasn't eaten for a month. His family have never checked up on him, never really realised he was gone. Until this fateful day that was.

There was hammering on his door, he always kept it locked, and shouts from outside. He didn't hear it at first, he was too dazed, but when they knocked the door down and his older brother lifted him up by the collar, he definitely heard and felt that.

"H-hi Huang." Renjun whispered daintily, trying to smile.

"Mother demands we bring you to her." He stated, refusing to look him in the eye.

Renjun faintly nodded, not having the energy to fight back or argue. When he was placed down to walk he collapsed to the floor, his legs way too weak to hold him up.

"I'm sorry b-brother." He muttered trying to pick himself up but falling back down.

"It's fine." Huang leant down to pick up Renjun. "I'll just carry you down." He said, moving towards the door.

Renjun looked up to see his sister, Sakheli, staring at him painfully. She blocked the way down the stairs so Huang gave her a gentle nudge.

"Sorry." She moved to the side. "Renjun you look terrible." She said by accident, but making it clear she meant it.

"Thanks Sakheli." He snapped, rolling his eyes. She looked as though she wanted to say something else but stopped herself, not wanting to worsen yours twos bond.

You see, Renjun and Sakheli used to be close, combined at the hip close. Even when they were younger they both hated the taste of blood, they promised eachother when renjun turns 16 they won't touch it at all. Sakheli promised, but as the time came, she refused. She told him he was being unrealistic, that he was going to get himself killed, so he did it without her.

Huang carried him into the dining room, there wasn't really any need for one, just his mother liked being at the head of the table.

"Ahh Renjun darling. Where have you been? You look so weak my sweet one." She held her hands out to give him a kiss though he pulled away. "Now don't be like that, after everything I'm about to do for you." She had an even smile on her face, her hands clasped together in front of her.

Huang placed him in a chair, before he could register anything steel clasps went around his ankles and wrists, keeping him trapped in the chair. Now Renjun was frantic.

"M-mother please no." He tried his best to be loud but he couldn't.

She placed a finger to Renjun's lips, "We are going to make you healthy again little one." She laughed then clapped, beckoning two more vampires foward, both holding a sachet of blood.

"You should thank us, we saved you some." She stroked his delicate features. "You've always been ungrateful for everything we've done for you, but I cannot have my youngest dying. If it were Huang I would have let him die." Renjun saw his brother wince in the corner. "But my little baby, of course not." She smiled, her eyes never leaving his.

"Now show me your little fangs." She cooed, taking a sachet of blood from on of the vampires. Renjun moved his head, his fangs coming out yearning for the blood, having a mind of their own. "So you do want it. I knew it!" She giggled.

"Hold his head still!" She snapped at Sakheli and Huang.

"Yes mother, right away mother." They both grabbed his head, however not watching what was about to happen.

The blood bag got closer and closer, eventually getting to his fangs.

"Push his head foward." Sakheli began to tear up and Huang forced his eyes shut.

"Y-yes mother." They both said in unison.

They pushed his head foward, his fangs burst the sealing, the taste of blood hit his tongue and tricked down his throat.

He began to cry as the blood carried on pouring down his throat, only getting faster and faster. Then he blacked out, forcing his eyes to close and his brain to not feel what is going on. What surprised him next however was the flash of light, the feeling of lightness, the taste of blood leaving his mouth completely. And this time it wasn't him doing it.

Renjun opened his eyes only to be met with an angel, he shuffled back uncertainty washing over him, yet he also felt a strong innocence radiating from the man in front of him.

"You're safe now." He said pained. "I'm Taeyong, and this is N City."

And for once in Renjun's life, he actually felt a sense of security.
