thinking about how san would be such a service top/dom for wooyoung and how that awakens his own desire to be submissive. thinking about the first time wooyoung asks him to choke him or hit him or pull his hair or degrade him, call him a slut, call him useless, and san is just like ?????? but i love you????? but he can see how much wooyoung wants it and he cant help how hot he finds it when wooyoung begs to be treated badly.
perhaps san's fucking wooyoung from behind and wooyoung begs to have his hair pulled, and what san does isn't hard enough so he just whines and begs some more "just fucking ruin me, sannie, please, i need it please please please" and so san yanks really fucking hard and the wail wooyoung lets out is just sinful and san can't believe wooyoung wants to be treated this way but he really can see how much he enjoys it. he watches every time wooyoung's eyes roll back or tears spill down his cheeks when san is roughing him up as asked.
"sannie, sannie, sannie please call me a slut"
"call you what?"
"i'm a slut call me a slut please"
wooyoung is already crying and his words are punctuated with little whines and moans.
"you're a slut," san says, without much feeling because really? this is how wooyoung wants him to dirty talk?
but wooyoung throws his head back and arches into san's grip and his little moans every time san fucks back in are kicked up a few notches and fuck, san thinks he's so fucking hot.
wooyoung whines again "yes yes please please san i'm gonna cum" and san tightens his grip on wooyoung's waist, nails digging into his soft skin, and he would do whatever wooyoung asked.
he leans down and growls by his ear "you're this close already? just by me calling you a few names? god wooyoung, you really are such a slut."
and when he watches wooyoung's eyes fly open as he moans and moans and cums all over his own stomach, san thinks he just found himself his own new kink too.

A/N: And we have reached to the end of 3 is just a number. Thank you for reading this series until the end. I hope you enjoy reading it. I will come back with a new series soon ^^
You look up from your suitcase, just to see Yunho leaning against the door as he watches you packing.
Flashing him a small smile, you then nod your head indicating yes. After receiving your answer, Yunho does not hesitate to enter the room and take a seat beside you, trying to help you with your stuff.
Watching him willingly lending a hand reminded you of all the moments you had with the bigger man. All the laughter, the countless dates, his kindness towards you.
He had always been there for you every time you need to rant on to. The guy never complaints about anything that you do. He is so kind towards you, and you know why.
However, you yourself know that you cannot pick him because you are thinking about someone else while being with him.
Those feelings make you feel bad for choosing someone else other than Yunho. But, deep down, you know that he deserves someone better than you. He will found that someone in the future.
“Do you know why San and Wooyoung dislike me so much in the first place?”
His question managed to turn your head to face him. You twist your lip for a while before shaking your head.
Right, you never knew why the boys refused Yunho in the first place. All you knew was that you got into an argument with Wooyoung and then San comforted you, as usual.
You never know the real reason, until today.
“I used to cheat on my ex-girlfriend and hook up with other girls behind her back, and they knew about it,” he stated.
A frown appears on your face. You know that people have their own dark secrets but you did not expect Yunho as a cheater.
He radiates gentleman and innocent aura. His gaze is soft and the way he speaks sounds like a melody.
Well, you cannot judge a book by its cover, y/n.
“How did they found out,” you asked.
The man proceeds on telling you about the night that you suddenly fell sick and cannot join the boys to hang out. That was the night Yunho was introduced to Wooyoung and San, the same night his dirty little secret got exposed. (Chapter two)
You on the other side decided to listen to him attentively and nod your head once in a while.
To be honest, ever since you and Yunho decided to go out together, this was the first time he told you about his past relationship.
Both of you would usually just talk about classes, hobbies, and the future. Most of the time, you are the one who did the talking while he sat down and listen to everything.
“That was why they don’t want me to be with you. They’re worried about you.”
You let out a soft sigh as soon as he finished his sentence. A part of you feels bad for lashing out on Wooyoung and blaming both of them for trying to control your life.
But in reality, they did that to protect you. They are truly your knights. The thought of it is enough to melt your heart and spread a smile on your face.
They had been the best boys you have ever met, and they will always be your best boys.
Yunho’s eyes switch to study your face. Happiness is apparent again on your face. The old Y/N that he knew had slowly came back.
Sadly, it was not because of him.

*Flashback*
The sun was slowly rising itself. She just got back home from her all night producing. The moment she entered the house, she could not contain her joy at the thought of cuddling with her boyfriend after an exhausting night at the studio.
However, she saw unfamiliar shoes. She did not remember buying that, and even if she did, she would have put it away in the cupboard. Besides, it looks smaller than her size.
An uneasy feeling slowly crept up into her heart. Suddenly, she felt something in her stomach that made her wanted to throw up.
Truth to be told, she had heard a few rumors about his boyfriend hooking up here and there while she was gone. Yet, she always preached to people that she trusted him enough and she knew that he is not a guy like that.
Today, maybe God is trying to prove that she was wrong all along.
As she walked to the living room, she accidentally stepped on a cardigan, which once again did not belong to her.
At this point, tears slowly forming in her eyes. Her hand gripped onto the doorknob of the room. With her eyes closed, she chanted into her mind that everything would be okay and it was all in her head.
But, the two figures on the bed proved her otherwise.
Yunho’s arm was currently hugging an unknown girl. She did not need to pull the blanket to know that both of them were naked under it. The clothes scattered on the floor were enough to tell her what happened while she was gone.
With heavy heart, she went out of the room and sat herself down on the couch, crying silently to herself.
A few minutes later, Yunho woke up from his sleep. He let out a sigh as he looked at the figure beside him.
He did it again. He knew he should not do it, but he did it anyway.
The man was about to wake the lady up, but a frown appeared on his face at the opened door. He was sure that he closed the door last night.
He remembered falling asleep right after he did the deed with the stranger.
As if on cue, his eyes widened. He grabbed the phone on the nightstand and read the time – 9:09 AM.
He fucked up.
Getting off the bed, he wore his underwear at the speed of light before exiting the room, revealing a woman sitting on the couch with her hands covering her face.
Swallowing his saliva, he took a few steps to the lady before she suddenly spoke up.
“How long has it been?”
Yunho did not answer. He stayed frozen at his spot. After a while, she who was supposed to be his lover looked up at him. Her eyes were red and swollen due to crying. Her cheeks were crimson red in color.
Her knuckles became white as she tried to restrain herself from lashing out to him.
All of a sudden, he could feel his heart shattered into pieces. His hands unconsciously trying to reach out to her and pulled her into a hug, whispering his apologies in her ears.
But, it was too late. Everything was too late.
The girl in front of him used to look so bubbly and full of joy. Her eyes would always sparkle every time she talked about music and producing. She was so innocent.
And he broke her.
“I thought they were joking when they said you always play around with others when I wasn’t with you. Guess I should’ve listened to them better.”
The woman stood up from the couch and walked towards their shared room to take all of her belongings. As she passed by him, she muttered a few words that sounded like a curse.
“You can continue with what you are doing, but don’t expect other people can’t do the same to you.”
Just like that, she was gone from his life, forever.
-
Now, as he looks at you, he thought to himself, I deserve this.
Wooyoung smells an aroma of fresh foods. He recognizes this scent. You always cook this food whenever he craves for your cooking. It is his ultimate favorite food.
The scent reminded of back then when he used to disturb you in the kitchen while you were cooking. He would always try to tickle you and your laughter filled the whole kitchen area.
Those were happy days. He misses you. Guess his feeling for you is so strong until you managed to appear in his dream too.
A few minutes later, the scent came back but a little bit stronger than before. He scrunches his nose in his sleep. Only your cooking can smell like this.
Wait, scent, your cooking.
He wakes up with his eyes widen. The smell entered the room once again. He rushed out of the room, totally ignoring San who might or might not wake up due to his action and run towards the kitchen.
That is when he saw a familiar figure, currently stirring the food in the pot. Just like that, his heart beat so loud it almost felt like it was about to jump out of his body.
You look to your side and a grin appears on your face when you saw the younger guy.
“Did I wake you up? Go wash up. The food is almost done,” you said to him.
Wooyoung ignores all the moral he had left inside him and engulf your body into a tight hug. His face buried at the crook of your neck as his arms wrap around your waist.
“You’re here. You’re really here,” he cried.
Your hand moves to caress his hair. None of you said nothing, but you can feel your neck starts to get wet. Wooyoung is crying. He really is crying.
Moving your head slightly, you place a soft kiss on his head. “I’m home,” you muttered against his hair before smiling to yourself.
San rubbed his eyes as he walked out of the room.
“What’s with the noise-“
His words got cut off by the sight of you and Wooyoung hugging each other in the kitchen. He was about to make his way there until he saw Yunho sitting on the couch, watching the scene too.
Before he greets the bigger man, he studies the look on his face. Although he is smiling, his eyes look sad. That was the very moment that San realized, the guy really do loves you.
With a soft sigh, San walks towards the lonely man and holds out his hand for a shake. Yunho was surprised at the sudden appearance but quickly regain his composure a few seconds after that.
He stands up from the couch and grabs San’s hand with his own. Both men smile at each other.
“Thank you for bringing her back,” San said.
Yunho let out a chuckle and shakes his head.
“I’m the one who should be thankful to both of you for giving me a chance to learn how to love,” he admitted.
San does not need to question the meaning behind that. He already knows. The two boys let go of each other’s hands and turn to face the two figures who are still in their own world.
The sound of Yunho clearing his throat loudly managed to pull you and Wooyoung away from the heart-warming scene you were having. Though, his arms are still around your body, refused to pull away.
Yunho’s gaze shifts from San and Wooyoung back and forth before landing on you. A small smile form on his face once again.
“Thank you for everything, y/n. I’m grateful to have you in my life.”
A soft-expression filled your face at his words.
“Thank you, Yunho. You know you can still find me if you need anything.”
The said man did not say anything but the smile stays on his face. Patting San’s shoulder, he walks towards the door.
Just before he exited the house, he turns around to remind the boys.
“If any of you didn’t treat her right, I’ll swoop her away forever.”
Wooyoung sends a scoff in his way.
“Keep dreaming, big boy.”
Yunho chuckles at the feedback. He spends a few more seconds looking at you before making his way out of the house, leaving you where you are supposed to be – and it is totally not by his side.
After the door closed, Wooyoung turn to face you again and grin widely, his eyes are almost gone because of it. He cannot contain his happiness, and so do you.
“You’re here. You’re really here,” he repeated.
A chuckle slipped out of your lip as you nod your head. Your hand then move to stroke Wooyoung’s cheek, eager to feel the softness of it once again.
Instinctively, Wooyoung leans to your hand. He miss the warmth – your warmth. Even if you and him tend to fight a lot, you are also his comfort place, other than San.
You are the only girl he wants to spend his life with and nobody can convince him otherwise.
Drunken into your eyes, Wooyoung suddenly looks at you with his serious face. His eyes shift down to your lip. It looks so seductive. It’s like calling him closer. He feels like he is being intoxicated.
Slowly, he leans closer to your face, eyes still lingering on your tier.
“Can I kiss that lip of yours,” he asked in a soft yet sensual tone.
It would be a lie if you said that you did not get affected by Wooyoung. The man in front of you had always told people that he is hot and sexy. But, you never really did experience it with your own eyes.
Your cheeks slowly turning red. It is too embarrassing for you to say it out loud but you want it. So, instead of verbally, you decided to grip onto his clothe, giving him permission to initiate the action.
Wooyoung swore he would have claim your lip and kiss it as if his life is depending on it. However, someone interrupted him, again, by clearing his throat loudly.
It took Wooyoung every cells inside him not to pick a fight with the person – San. Right, this is his house too. He did not believe that he really forgot the existence of his boyfriend in this house.
San who was standing at the kitchen entrance with his arms folded, raised his brows slightly.
“Hate to break it to you baby but she is mine too, remember?”
There it is. The playful mocking tone of San. It was rare for the older guy to act like this but when he do, you can see smoke coming out of Wooyoung’s nose.
You shake your head lightly before letting yourself out from Wooyoung and wrap your arms around the other guy’s neck. In return, he wraps his arms around you, his hands caressing your side gently.
“Welcome home, my princess,” he muttered against your head. You let out a soft hum as you bury your face against his neck, feeling more of his warmth.
San can sense a fit of jealousy coming from the younger guy. So, he holds out one of his arms for Wooyoung, asking him to join the hug.
Even though the man rolled his eyes, he still walks towards the two of you and secures his arms at your side, his hands on San’s shoulder. The three of you spend a few moments in a group hug.
Finally, you are together with the boys again. Finally, your longing towards both of them cure. Finally, you have them back in your arms.
You vow to yourself that you will not leave them behind anymore. True, being in a polyamory relationship is different. But, three is just a number.
You can never ask for something better than this – and the boys felt the same way.
“You know, being with me doesn’t mean I give you free access to use my room as your own,” you said as you look at the two boys.
One is currently flipping through your novel pages on your bed, while the older one is writing his assignment on your study table, using your laptop.
Wooyoung shifts the book in his hand to the side so he can directly look at you with a sheepish grin.
“I don’t care. Besides, your room smells super good. I’m addicted to it,” he said.
You roll your eyes and shake your head at the man. Walking towards San, you put your bag on the floor and take a peek from his shoulder.
“Still have a lot to write?”
San shakes his head at your question, indicating no. Your hands move to his arms and massage his muscle gently, hoping that it can make him less tense.
A soft hum slips out of his lip. “It feels nice,” he said.
You just smile at yourself hearing those words. It makes you feel proud whenever he compliments you, even if it is just a small thing.
As a reply, you bring your face closer to him and place a soft peck against his cheek.
“Finish it up quickly and then we can cuddle,” you whispered. Both of you laugh lightly at each other before he takes your arms and circle it around his neck and continue writing his assignment.
You and San were in peace for a few moments, until Wooyoung decided to interrupt the situation by purposely clearing his throat out loud.
Turning your head to the man, you can see him staring at the two of you with jealousy in his eyes. A scoff came out of your mouth at his childishness.
To satisfy the younger ones, you unwrap your arms from San and move towards your bed so you can cuddle with your other man.
His eyes instantly become soft as you play with his hair. In his mind, he keeps on repeating to himself, how lucky he is to have such a woman like you by his side forever.
Without saying anything, he lifts himself slightly to surprise you with a kiss on the lip. It was just a short one, but you can still feel the softness of his own against yours.
To say that you were stunned for a while is understandable, but you manage to regain your composure after a few seconds.
“Where did that come from, hm?”
Wooyoung said nothing. However, his mouth instantly forms a smile and his hand reaches up to push a strand of your hair to the back of your ear.
Closing the gap between both of you, he leans his forehead against yours, the smile still apparent on his face as he mutters, “I love you.”
You are not sure why, yet, a tear escapes from your eyes as he said those words to you. Although he was the annoying one – and still is – between him and San, you cannot deny that you love and care for him, just as much as you feel for San.
This time, a smile form on your face and your hand move to touch his cheek.
“I love you too, dumbass.”
You did not realize that San had already finished with his assignment until an arm suddenly circles itself around your waist.
You glance at the man behind you just to see him already looking at you with his usual soft and loving gaze.
“Am I interrupting something,” he asked in a teasing tone.
The same smile is still on your face as you shake your head at him. You straighten your body so that your back is directly on the bed with each man on your side.
San pushes himself from the bed a bit to kiss your lip and move his head to the crook of your neck. None of you speak a word, leaving the room in silence for a few moments.
“We are going to be together forever, right?”
The two boys look at each other before they get closer to you with wide smiles displayed on their faces.

A/N: This is a bad chapter hh I’m sorry ;; Also, idk if I’m able to survive ateez’s comeback because it’s just asjkdkbdjksjk i almost cried istg
It had been a week since the incident happened. Since then, you have been staying at Yunho’s house. He is nice enough to let you have the bed while he sleeps on the couch.
His kindness made you wonder why San and Wooyoung disapproved of him in the first place.
Ever since the first night you slept in his house, he was always available for you to rant. He also lets you cuddle with him any time you want to. Sometimes, he would place a gentle kiss on your forehead.
Just like that, you are slowly falling for him – that was what you wished to happen. But, not everything will turn out the way we want to, right?
Every time you hug Yunho while watching the television, it reminded of you and Wooyoung doing the same thing. When he gave you a peck on your forehead, you suddenly thought of San since it had always been his job to do so.
You know that you cannot deny that you miss your boys. Sure, Yunho can provide you all the warmth and affections you crave, but it’s different than the one you used to get.
You miss the smell of fresh foods on the table, cooked by San. You want to have your usual bantering with Wooyoung every day. You want to witness their childishness whenever they are being clingy with you.
You miss them so much and it hurts you so bad. However, you cannot do anything, simply because you are not ready to face them yet.
-
It is lunchtime, but you do not feel like eating. You were walking aimlessly around your faculty when you came across a big poster plastered against the wall – ‘PERFORMANCE ART DAY’.
Looking at the title, you are reminded of Wooyoung and San for the nth times of the day. All of this occurrence makes you forgot that they will be performing on stage soon.
You walk closer to see the date and time. Tomorrow.
Biting your lower lip, your mind starts to think about your boys. Did San get enough rest? Did Wooyoung eat properly?
It was your duty to always keep them in shape no matter how busy they are.
San tends to overwork himself without him realizing just because he wanted to deliver an amazing performance. Therefore, you had to remind him when to stop.
On Wooyoung’s side, he would practice his routine continuously, which resulted in him forgot to have his meal. Sometimes, you wonder how can a human went on a day without eating a single thing.
Just like that, it became your job to pass by his practice room to give him some food and make sure he finished everything right then and there.
It was a bad choice to look at the poster because your heart is now filled with worry. However, due to your ego, you refuse to check on them.
To get rid of the feelings, you walk away from the place and decides to focus on your class.
The show day is finally here. Faculty of Performance Arts are busy with people here and there. Aside from the performances, they are also enjoying all the foods available at the booths nearby the entrance.
Everyone is having the time of their life, except for you, who are currently munching potato chips, on the couch, while watching television.
Yunho was about to walk towards the door but his intention got halted by your presence. He let out a sigh and leans against the wall.
“Aren’t you going,” he asked.
You know what he meant. However, you choose to ignore him and go back to your own activity.
“You can’t be like this forever, y/n.”
Once again, you pretend as if you heard nothing coming out from Yunho’s mouth. The man pulls himself from the wall and stands on his feet, both hands are now in his pockets.
“I heard that those two aren’t like how they used to be before.”
The barrier that you created earlier instantly crumbled down as soon as the sentence left Yunho’s lips. Although it is not enough to make you face him, it managed to stop you from eating junk food.
“They said that they tend to practice until late at night. Sometimes, they even slept inside the practice room. They also barely eat anything and hardly be seen together nowadays.”
If you decide to put aside your pride for a while, you would have admitted that those lines pierce your heart. They sound so exhausted, unhealthy, and sad.
You swallow down your saliva, trying to regain your composure. “They are just busy with the performance-”
“You know well that’s not the reason,” Yunho cut you off. You take a brief glance at him and you can see the seriousness on his face. His bubbly expression is gone.
He let out another sigh the moment you go back to devour those potato chips in your hand.
“I know that you’re still confused, but they need you. You guys have never been separated for too long before. Y/n, you are their strengths. I’m sure they find happiness whenever they are around you – the same happiness that you gave me.”
Your eyes widen slightly at his words before facing him. Those last bits sound a lot like a confession, and it makes you dumbstruck.
The room was quiet for a few minutes. The only noise that you can hear is the conversation on the television.
With a small smile, he walks towards you to ruffle your hair gently. “As much as you hate to admit it, you miss them a lot, right?”
You bite your inner cheek, refuse to give away to your feelings. An amused smile plastered on Yunho’s face as he watches you fighting with your own inner self.
He let go of your hair and walk towards the door. Before he went out of the house, he delivered a few sentences that leave you speechless.
“One more time. Give them back their happiness one more time, and show me again your smile – the genuine smile.”
Somehow, you end up queueing up in front of the hall where the dance will be held. As expected, there will be a lot of people wanting to watch the show.
You were about to take out your wallet to buy a ticket. However, the woman in the booth is faster than you. She hands you a ticket with a smile, leaving you confused.
As far as you know, you did not mention the number of tickets you need. Well, you are alone. But, what if you are here with someone else and the person did not know that?
“It’s y/n, right? This is the ticket reserved for you,” she said.
Although you are still clueless, you take the ticket from her and mutter a soft ‘thank you’. You flip the ticket around and you saw a note that instantly makes you smile.
“It’s not much but we hope you will enjoy the show. We love you – WooSan”
You forgot how sweet both of the boys can be towards you. No wonder everyone love them a lot. They deserve all the love and happiness in the whole world.
Without further ado, you enter the hall and look around for your designated seat, just to find out that it is nearby the stage.
As you sit down, you can see that you are near the stage where you can clearly see the performance. Unconsciously, a soft smile forms on your face.
They even thought about the position, huh, you thought.
A couple of minutes have passed and the show finally starts. The light slowly dims itself and you can hear the music starts to play.
You watch as one by one enter the stage with their dance routine. The way they move their body matches the rhythm of the music perfectly. It is mesmerizing to watch.
Suddenly, your eyes fell on a familiar figure. One of the person you have been missing. Choi San. He is moving gracefully on the stage as if he is in his own world.
He was making a turn when his gaze fell on you, resulting in his eyes widen and almost fall down on the floor. But, being one of the best dancers, he manages to cover up his mistake.
You were panic for a while, yet you quickly regain your composure once he continues his dance routine.
The performance resumes until it reached the end. Everyone in the hall claps their hands loudly, delighted by the performance.
Not long after that, the next group was called up to take over. That is when you saw the one and only, Jung Wooyoung.
Seeing him reminds you of that time when you asked him the reason he is not in the same team as San’s.
“First, I know I can't keep my hands to myself if he's around. Also, our style is different. He prefers energetic, while I’m more to sensual.” Those were his responses to your question.
The only difference between San’s and Wooyoung’s stage is that he is already looking at your way. San must have informed him about your presence.
His gaze is a mixture of anger and longing, and it pierces your heart.
The music starts and they all start to move according to the beat. Your eyes stuck on Wooyoung as you watch his body flows perfectly to the music. He is a great dancer, just like San.
On stage, he is not the prankster annoying Wooyoung that you know. He is just, Wooyoung.
Without realizing, a tear escaped from your eye. You did not know that watching them grow up while doing what they love can make you feel proud and happy.
Memories of the three of you suddenly came into your mind. All those happy, sad, mad, and crazy moments. You remember everything – and you want to experience it once again with them.
When Wooyoung’s team ended their performance, you had to excuse yourself to the washroom. You turn the tap and wash your face with the water.
If only, if only you are willing to put your ego aside, you would have gone back to them. But, you are not ready to face them. For you, the thing that happened between the three of you is too much.
With an exhausted sigh, you get out of the washroom, just to found two young males leaning against the wall.
Your eyes immediately study their features. Due to the distance between you and the stage earlier, you can barely see the flaws on the boys’ faces.
But now, you can see how swollen their eyes have become. Even though they are wearing makeup, their eye bags are still visible to you. Their lips look dry too. It is obvious that they did not take care of themselves.
“Have you been well?” San’s question breaks the silence between you guys. Likewise, you did not respond verbally, so you just nods your head.
“How was the performance,” the younger male asked. You look at him and force a small smile on your face.
“It was nice. Good job.”
The surrounding become quiet once again until San decided to speak up.
“We miss-“
“Don’t.” You cut him off. You know what he was about to say, but that is the last thing you want to hear coming out from his mouth.
“Why? We can’t miss you now? Is that it?” As always, Wooyoung’s sudden outburst never fail to make you feel irritated.
“You can, if it’s just a friend. But, it’s not just a friend, is it? You can’t love someone else more than that when you both already have each other-“
This time, Wooyoung decided to interrupt you. “Where is the rule that says you can’t have a relationship with more than one person?”
You took your gaze away from Wooyoung as you bite your lower lip. San who has been watching your actions move closer to you.
Just by looking at you, he can sense that you are keeping something inside your heart and mind, and he needs to know about it.
“What exactly are you thinking, y/n?”
Your head hang low. The frown on your face clearly shown that you are still puzzled with everything that had happened.
You play with your fingers as you contemplates if you should or should not let your guard down – and the earlier won.
“I… I don’t want to be labelled as a stealer. Besides, this thing is… rare.”
Wooyoung softens listening to your reasoning. He did not know you would feel that way when San told you about their feelings towards you.
He thought that you are disgusted with the idea. He bite his inner cheek and clenches his fist. He is mad at himself for misunderstanding you.
In contrast, the older one chuckle to himself softly before standing in front of you and pat your head.
“But, don’t you think it’s special because this kind of relationship is rare?”
You puffs out your cheek a bit, but did not give any responds to him.
“Also, you aren’t a stealer. I told you, that we both love you and it’s solely on us. You did nothing wrong, my princess.”
It is understandable when a blush suddenly crept onto your face. No, it’s not peculiar for San use nicknames to call you. But, it is the first time he called you like that ever since that day.
Wooyoung squints his eyes a bit as he witness how shy you suddenly become. To say that he is jealous, well, yeah, he is, a bit.
Even though you tried not to be biased with any of the boys, he still envy San for having it easy. It feels like San knows what you feel and think – And that, annoys him slightly.
Without wasting any chance, he grabs your hand and put it against his face, his eyes lock with yours.
“Just come back home. We miss you. We rarely went back just because you weren’t there.”
You wanted to pull away but instinctively, you begin to caress Wooyoung’s face with your thumb. It is still soft, just like how you remembered.
You were lost in your thought until Wooyoung lean to your hand even more. Quickly, you take your hand away from his face, startling not only him but also San.

Summary: The bond between the three of you is almost unbreakable. Wherever you go, they will follow. Wherever they go, you will join. The moment both of the guys got into a relationship, everything just got better. The three of you are happy with the current moment. That is until one of them decided to follow their own heart – and may or may not break the friendship that you have been holding onto for more than five years.
You were woken up to the sound of utensils clashing together from the kitchen. You look to your side, just to see Wooyoung is still deep in his sleep.
Watching him like this brings a soft smile on your face. He looks so calm – the total opposite of him with his eyes open.
Gently, you scoop his head with your free hand and slowly lift it up to free your arm. Once you move your arm, you put down his head back on the pillow.
You proceed to get down from your bed, trying your best to not accidentally wake Wooyoung up. Before leaving the room, you grab the blanket and drape it on his body to keep him warm.
Once you close the door, you walk up to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. However, you see a figure standing with his back facing you and he is holding a spatula in one of his hands.
Smiling to yourself, you walk towards the kitchen and look over his shoulder.
“Why suddenly pancake,” you asked as you tilt your head slightly. San’s lip curls up into a smile but his eyes are still concentrating on the food.
“I’m hungry and I want something easy to cook.” You just nod your head at his answer. Deciding not to disturb him any longer, you move to grab a glass of water.
As you swallow down the liquid, your eyes scan San’s visual. His eye bags are starting to get visible and his hair is a little bit messy. He looks exhausted.
While you were studying him in silence, his hand suddenly stop moving.
“I want it too,” he said.
You blink for a few times at the spontaneous words. Confusion is clearly showing on your face. San turns his head, a determined look plastered on his face.
“I want that cuddle too.”
San’s words make you let out a soft chuckle. You shift towards the sink to wash your glass. “Last night it was Wooyoung, and this morning it’s you.”
The man does not look away but his eyes widen, imitating puppy eyes and a small pout form on his face. You hate it the most when San made this kind of face because he knows that you will give in.
Which is why a sigh escapes from your lip before you nod your head. San turns his head back on the pan, a happy wide smile plastered on his face, showing off his dimple.
The fact that he looks so delighted leads you to shake your head at him. You forgot just how childish both Wooyoung and San can be.
You can say that you will never get the chance to be biased on one of them. If Wooyoung gets to cuddle with you, San will also get to do the same. If San gets a lollipop from you, you have to give one to Wooyoung too.
Sometimes you feel like you are taking care of two babies instead of two grown-up men.
“It’s kinda cute that the two of you always ask for cuddles whenever both of you have something in your mind, or exhausted.”
Even though San does not respond to you, your words still struck him. Indeed, they always find you for comfort after having a tiring day or they are anxious about something.
Then, what is playing in Wooyoung’s mind, San thought.
Your hand on his shoulder manage to pull him out to reality. Without wasting time, you take the spatula from his hand and push him to the side.
“Go to shower and then we can eat. You stink,” you told him as you flip the pancake. San scoffs lightly at your remark before bending down slightly to whisper in your ear. “Look who’s talking.”
If only San does not dash away from you, you swear the spatula would have landed on his face.
-
30 minutes have passed since you and San freshen up and eat breakfast. Now, both of you are on San’s bed, his face burying in your neck and his arms wrap tightly around your waist.
With your free hand, you reach up to play with his hair. He let out a content sigh against your skin before opening his mouth.
“I miss this.”
You can sense that he is slowly falling asleep just by his tone. And somehow, his grip on you tighten after he muttered those words.
You move your hand to his back to pat him gently. Not long after that, you can hear a soft snore coming from him. He must be so tired from the practice.
“You are such a baby,” you mumble softly against his hair before leaving a soft peck there. Just like that, both of you drifted to dreamland.
-
Wooyoung thought that he would get to see your face first when he opened his eyes. But, to his dismay, he woke up to an empty bedside instead.
He gets out of the room. His nose automatically smells an aroma of freshly cooked food. He looks around the house, yet he cannot see you.
Where did she go, he asked in his mind. The man then walks towards his room to grab his phone and call you, but instead, he was presented with the sight of you and his boyfriend sleeping while hugging each other tightly.
It had been two weeks and the cycle still continues. Every time the boys come back home from class or practice, they will go to you simply to hug you or be near you.
At this point, you are starting to feel uneasy with the sudden urge of them to keep touching you.
Yes, you are familiar with hugging and cuddling. However, it is becoming too often. It is different than how they usually are.
You are still trying to figure it the reason they suddenly became so clingy with you. It has come to the point that you are lost in your thought even when Yunho is clearly sitting in front of you.
“Y/n.” His soft voice manages to wake you up. You look at him and raise your brows. “Did you say something?”
Yunho leans his back to his chair, a little smile playing on his face as he shakes his head.
“Are you still thinking about it?”
You blink your eyes momentarily before reaching to your cup of tea and take a sip from it. Although you give him no response, he can sense it already.
You had been venting out to Yunho these days since you do not who to talk to. Your dates with him had basically changed to rant sessions. You explained to him what the boys did, including the sudden changes in their behavior.
At first, Yunho thought that they were just being protective of you as their friend. After hearing your story, he is sure that it is more than that.
“I think they love you.”
You frown slightly at his words. “Of course they love me. Why would they become my bodyguards if they don’t?”
Yunho can only chuckle at your cluelessness. It is true when people said nobody is perfect in this world. You might be good academically. However, you can consider as dumb in love topic.
“What I meant was, they love you, more than a friend.”
-
“Spill.”
The roughness in San’s tone is visible to Wooyoung’s ear. The two boys are now sitting next to one another, with a gap in between them. None of them look at each other.
Wooyoung clenches his fist tightly before he starts his words with a sigh.
“I like y/n… more than a friend.”
San does not say anything but his jaw is clenching. He knew those sentences will come out from Wooyoung’s mouth eventually, but he cannot help being mad.
“I don’t know since when, but I’m sure about it now.”
Of course, if he was not sure about his feelings towards you, he would not ask you for a cuddle every night, or pull you into his chest every time the two of you are on the couch.
San knew that – and it hurts.
Before the older one gets to say a word, the younger cut him off with another sentence.
“But, my feelings for you are still the same. I still love you, San. But, I love her too.”
The man covers his face with his hands. Slowly, tears begin to flow down his cheeks. San can hear the soft sniffs coming from his boyfriend, and he already knows that he is crying.
Instantly, San closes the distance between both of them and pulls Wooyoung into a hug, letting him cry on his shoulder instead.
His hand continuously rubbing his back as he tries to calm the man down. “I’m the worst, right,” the younger muttered.
San gulps down his saliva before pulling away from the hug to look at his boyfriend in the eyes.
“You aren’t the worst. I understand your feelings… because I felt the same too.”
Wooyoung scrunches his eyebrows in confusion. Did he hear it wrong or San really did just admit that he loves you too?
The older guy flashes Wooyoung a small smile before holding both of his hands.
“I know that you’ve been chasing away all the boys from y/n before.”
The said guy widen his eyes. He thought that no one knows about the methods that he used to prevent you from dating anyone before. But, San proved him wrong.
“If you didn’t chase them away, I will be the one to do so,” he confessed.
For the next few minutes, none of them speak a word. It is rare to get them this quiet since they are loud all the time. But at this moment, the only sound that can be heard is the fan spinning at the center of the living room.
After a few moments more of silence, Wooyoung decided to talk.
“Should we tell her?”
San licks his lip, thinking of the answer he should give. If it is possible, he wishes that they can still conceal their feelings for you a little longer.
Yet, deep in his heart, even though you did not say anything to him, he knows that you are curious about their behavior towards you the past few days.
He knows that the amount of skinship that both of them wanted from you was increasing dramatically.
At the same time, he felt that he should tell you sooner before you get together with Yunho because God knows how it will hurt both of their hearts.
With a heavy sigh, San nods his head. “We should tell her.”
As you climb up to your house, you cannot help but think about Yunho’s words.
Love. They love you more than a friend. But, that did not make sense at all. They already have each other as partners. Why would they have that feeling for you now?
You tried to brush off the thought from your mind but it keeps coming back. The more you are trying to push it away, the louder it spoke into your mind.
You are too deep into your thought that you did not realize that you have been standing in front of your house for more than three minutes now. Luckily, a honk from a car down the street brought you back into reality.
Let’s not think about it and just act naturally, you thought to yourself before pulling out your key and unlock the door.
The moment you enter the house, you can sense a strange aura. It was not as lively as it was before. It is quiet. Too quiet for your own liking.
You thought the boys have not reached home yet, but the sight of both of them sitting on the couch proves you otherwise.
Suddenly, Yunho’s words came flowing back into your mind. That is when you realize that you can no longer act as if nothing happened.
However, you still manage to give them a small smile.
“Have you guys eat?”
Their eyes are now on you. The gaze that they gave makes you feel nervous and uncomfortable. This is way too tense for you – and you hate it.
You were about to walk to your room when a voice called out your name. You turn around to see San standing up from his position.
You knew that your hunch was right. There is something wrong right now.
San had always showcased his gentle expression whenever he is around you. If he is your brother, he will be the one that will continuously give you support and spoils you until you feel annoyed.
He would always pat your head and flashes you a soft smile. But, those kinds of expressions are not there.
His gaze is straight into your eyes that you felt like he’s shooting daggers into it. For the first time in your life, you feel intimidated by San.
Before you can save yourself, San opens up his mouth.
“What if we told you that both of us love you… more than a friend?”
There it is. He finally said it. The only sentence that you are scared of right at this moment. You wish to have ears that did not hear that question, but it’s impossible now.
You clench your fist at your side as you try to keep your composure.
“You can’t. You already have each other-“
Like always, you have not finished your sentence yet, but Wooyoung decided to interrupt as he stood up from the couch.
“Why? We love you, and at the same time, we love each other too. What’s wrong with it?”
You can no longer keep a straight face due to the younger’s sudden outburst. They can only see puzzled expression from your face.
This does not make sense. How can they love a person while still being madly in love with another? This is too confusing for you and it hurts your head the more you think about it.
Without saying anything, you walk towards your room and slam the door harshly, startling the two guys in the living room.
-
After giving you space for almost an hour, San finally decided to talk to you. Coincidentally, the moment he took a step, the door to your room open.
At first, a relief smile plastered on his face and Wooyoung’s face lit up at your figure. But, in less than five seconds, you manage to destroy those expressions with a suitcase in your hand.
They thought that you just needed some time to think about their sudden confession, but instead they realize that they just give you a chance to pack your things up.
“Where are you going,” Wooyoung asked. You bite your lower lip before answering his question, refusing to look at any of them. “I’m going to stay somewhere else starting tonight.”
“But y/n-,” San wanted to convince you, but the way you turn around and look at him leave him froze at his place.
“I’m sorry but I can’t do this.”
Those are your last words before you step out of the house, leaving both men behind from your life for the first time since you met them.

A/N: And here is the prologue of the story. I’m sorry I posted this late because I was busy with my schedules. But, I hope you will enjoy the series ^^
Wooyoung was woken up by the sunlight that enters his and San’s bedroom. He turns around to take his phone on the nightstand and looks at the time.
8:00 AM – it reads. His class will start at 10 AM, which means he still got a lot of time to spend on his bed. Smiling to his thought, he turns back around to face his man just to see that San is still sleeping soundly.
Wooyoung loves to stare at San’s face first thing in the morning since he looks like a baby while sleeping. Slowly, he traces his boyfriend’s face features with the tip of his finger. Wooyoung feels so lucky to get a man as handsome as San. Of course, San is more than just visual, but no one can deny that the man is so good-looking that he should be in jail for looking so illegally gorgeous.
Wooyoung lifts his head slightly from the pillow to place a soft peck on San’s cheek. San slowly opens his eyes at the feeling of a soft lip against his face. The moment he is fully awake, he is greeted by a smiling Wooyoung and there is barely any space between both of them.
San reaches up to caress Wooyoung hair while the other man snuggles closer to feel more of San’s warmth.
“Good morning, my baby woo,” San greeted before placing a kiss on his cutie’s forehead. Blush slowly creeping onto Wooyoung’s face the moment he received the forehead kiss. Even though San always do that to him every morning, it still didn’t fail to turn the man into a tomato.
“Good morning, my san,” the other guy greeted back. Both of them made no effort to move from the bed. They prefer to cuddle with each other – Wooyoung’s arm hugging San’s waist while San just caressing Wooyoung’s hair.
It was honestly a peaceful moment for the two. Wooyoung wishes that the time will stop. San wants to cherish this moment a lot. Everything went well for the men until you decided to barge in their room without knocking.
“We get it that you guys are a couple but hello, I’m bored,” you said, earning groans from the boys.
You walk into the room and stand beside the bed with your arms crossed against your chest. Wooyoung and San pull away slightly to look at your facial expression.
“Don’t you have a class at 9:00,” San asked. You hum slightly to yourself before nodding your head a few times. “Yeah, so what?”
Wooyoung’s jaw drops a bit at your reaction. “You have less than an hour before your class starts and yet you’re still here,” he stated, looking obviously annoyed with your presence in the room.
“There’s a reason why I have a driving license and you don’t, Woo,” you fired back and flash him a happy wide smile, trying to get on his nerve.
However, before Wooyoung even has the chance to get up from his position, San beat him to it by sitting up and looks at you. “Don’t fight early in the morning. You know I don’t like it.”
Your eyes wander somewhere else for a while before it settles on Wooyoung, just to see him sticking out his tongue at you. Just like that, he ticked you off.
“Yah, Jung Wooyoung!” You get on the bed and straddle the younger guy as your hands pull onto his hair. As a payback, Wooyoung did the same to you and now both of you are currently tugging on each other’s hair.
San who decided to just watch lets out a soft sigh before muttering, “Here we go again.”
The three of you went way back to high school. You barely had any friends when you were a teenager. In Wooyoung and San’s case, they had always been attached since primary school. Their bond was unbreakable. They were the ultimate pair.
It all happened when one day, your teacher decided to assign a three-member project to your class. Since you are not close with your classmates and WooSan needs another person inside their group, the teacher decided to team you three up.
At first, it was merely just discussion and works. However, their constant randomness and silliness made you open your heart little by little. You found yourself smiling and laughing every time you were around them. Sometimes, you thought to yourself that you wish you could still be their friends.
When the three of you submitted the work, you felt like it was an ending. However, both of the boys did not stop bothering you at any chance they got.
They would join you in the cafeteria during lunch hour, went to your desk for no reason at all while your teacher was not present and constantly begging you to hang out with them. That’s how you decided to adopt two puppies in human forms.
Although the three of you keep spending time together, you cannot help but notice the way the boys look at each other. People often told you that you are lucky to have two gorgeous specimens by your side all the time. However, they did not see what you see.
Of course, you did not mind if they do have feelings for each other. Yet, as time passed by, none of the boys made effort to confess to each other – and nothing frustrated you more than that.
There were times where San would get jealous every time boys wrap their arm around Wooyoung, and not to mention the way Wooyoung was shooting daggers whenever women were flirting with San.
If only they made themselves official, everything would be better. And that, ladies and gentlemen, are exactly what happened when you tried to make Wooyoung jealous.
That night, you purposely sit on San’s laps with your front facing him. San was so shocked that he froze on his spot. Wooyoung who walked into the room walked towards you and pulled you away. His face was bright red as he tried to keep himself calm.
After he had calmed down a bit, the three of you sat around at the table. Wooyoung sat beside San and you sat across the younger guy. During that talking session, you convinced them to reveal their true feelings towards one another.
“But, aren’t you attracted to San,” Wooyoung asked. You shook your head. “It was all a teasing. Besides, if I have to choose, I would choose you, dumbass.”
The night continued with WooSan finally confessed to each other and the three of you celebrated it with some foods and alcohol.
At that moment, you wished that nothing would come between you and the two boys and ruined the friendships that you already had.
“Don’t forget to bring your house keys once you go out,” you said as you take your bag and sling it onto your shoulder.
Both men who are eating their breakfast look at each other before turning their heads towards you. Confusion is apparent on their faces.
“Why? Didn’t your class always end earlier than ours?”
You face them with a proud smile plastered on your face. “I have a date tonight.”
The boys’ faces fell. San’s eyes widen and his jaw dropped. Wooyoung’s spoon that was on his hand earlier is now laying on the floor. It took them a few seconds before they screamed simultaneously.

A/N: aaaannnddd this is where the conflict started.
San bites his lower lip. His eyes wander somewhere else, refused to look at you. Wooyoung on the other hand walks towards you and holds your wrist, turning you around to face him.
“Trust us, y/n. You don’t want to have anything to do with him,” he said. You grit your teeth as you look directly into Wooyoung. They did not just not answering your questions, but they also have the guts to control your life.
In anger, you free your wrist from Wooyoung’s grip and move closer to him, trying to intimidate him. Although you are much shorter than WooSan, your furious face never fails to scare them away.
Your gaze is locked on Wooyoung. “I might be the only girl between us, but that doesn’t mean both of you can control me. I do what I want.”
Wooyoung bites his inner cheek. He is trying so hard to calm down, but you make it hard for him to do so. He thought he got everything under control but his mouth moves faster than his mind.
“Go on. Continue seeing him. Don’t come crying once he breaks your heart.”
Your eyebrows scrunch at his words, but you decided to say nothing. Somehow, you feel like needles just pierce through your heart. His words hurt you.
Your eyes spend some time looking at Wooyoung’s feature before purposely bumping into his shoulder and walk towards your room.
The moment you closed the door, Wooyoung let out a breath that he does not know he has been holding. He should not say that. He did not know the reason he said that. He was just trying to protect you from the bad guy, instead, he was the one who ended up being one.
When he saw the pain inside your eyes, he knew he went overboard. He took it too far this time.
True, the two of you had always been fighting every day – like Tom and Jerry. However, those fights had never been this bad before.
There were times where you would be found sulking because he accidentally teased you too much, but there was no such pain apparent in your eyes before. The argument you had with him was purely for fun.
It had been three months since the three of you enrolled in the same university. WooSan decided to hang out with their new friends at a club. Unfortunately, you fell sick that night.
At first, Wooyoung and San decided to stay at home and took care of you. However, you refused and asked them to proceed with their plan. Besides, they had promised their friends that they will come and join them having fun.
Both men know that they would lose against you no matter how much they tried to convince you. That was how they ended up in the club, sitting on a couch, loud music blasting into their ears with the sight of people dancing on the floor in front of them.
“Where is the princess?” WooSan turned their heads just to meet with Yeosang’s face. One of his eyebrows raises slightly while waiting for them both to answer.
“She caught a cold so we asked her to stay inside tonight,” San replied before lifting up his glass and sips down the liquid.
“What a pity. I thought we can get to know her,” Hongjoong spoke. Wooyoung just flashed him a small smile and nods his head slightly. “Next time, maybe.”
The small one earlier pointed at the guy beside him. “Oh yeah, this is Yunho. He’s from Engineering.”
At that word, Wooyoung and San looked at each other. By now, the tall guy should have known or at least saw you in Engineering faculty since you studied there too.
Furthermore, they have heard your name being called around the campus. In just a span of three months, some people from Music and Performance Arts had talked about you.
It was either because you are one of the beauties with brains of the Engineering Faculty, or you are known as the only woman between WooSan.
Both of the men turned to face Yunho and flashed him friendly smiles. “Nice to meet you.”
The night went on with the boys keep chugging down their drinks. Although the music was hype, none of them made moves to the dance floor.
They just sat on the couch and have chats with one another. By now, all boys are comfortable with each other. Their conversations filled with laughter here and there.
“I wish I can go back with a girl tonight,” Yunho said. Yeosang who was sitting across him just lift up his lip into a smirk.
“The fact that you’ve never been caught cheating amazed me, Yun,” he said, and now it was Yunho’s turn to smirk. Wooyoung frowned at the sentence while San looked at Yeosang and Yunho back and forth in confusion.
“Cheating?” Hongjoong laughed softly at WooSan’s expression. He wrapped his arm around Yunho’s shoulder and pat it thrice.
“This man right here got a girlfriend, but still fuck around.”
A knock can be heard from outside the door. Your eyes moved to look at the door without making any effort to open it.
After a few seconds, you can hear a soft sigh. “It’s me. Can I come in?”
You thought to yourself for a while before shifting from your bed and walk towards the door to let him enter your room.
As soon as you let the door open, you go back to your spot on the bed and just sit there without looking at him.
San walks into your room. A soft sigh escapes from his mouth as he looks at your face. You will always have this sullen pout after your fight with Wooyoung.
Without saying anything, he moves towards your bed and sits beside you. The room is in silence for a few minutes. No one mutters a single word ever since San stepped into the room.
All of a sudden, an arm wraps around your body and pulls you close until your head is leaning on his shoulder, caressing your side softly. His other hand rests on your thigh while his chin is on top of your head.
“Wooyoung cares for you, and so do I. You know that, right?”
You refuse to say anything. However, you move your face to San’s neck and nods your head weakly.
His arm moves up to caress your head. San’s hand that was on your thigh shift to your arm to pull you closer to him, resulting in both of you hugging each other.
“Just, be careful, okay?”
You let out a content sigh before wrapping your arms around his waist. You bury you face deeper into his neck, trying to get more of his warmth.
Since day one, San had always been the one who will always provide you comfort – especially after you had an argument with Wooyoung. His warmth is enough to melt anyone’s heart. When he hugged you for the first time, you automatically understand the reason why everyone around him loves him so much.
Both of you continue to be in each other’s arms, oblivious about a pair of eyes watching from outside of the room.
The next morning, Wooyoung and San decided to go to your faculty to meet up with your so-called lover boy. According to Yeosang, even though Yunho and you are in the same course, but you still had different classes.
Surprisingly, both of the men do not have to wait for a long time because they can already see Yunho walking in their direction, talking to the girls around him with papers on his hand.
WooSan moves forward until they are standing right in front of Yunho. He was quite shocked by the sudden intrusion but his eyes soften and a small smile playing on his lip as soon as he saw who was the intruder.
“We want to talk with you for a while,” San said.
Yunho does not have to think twice about the topic that both men are trying to talk about. Bidding his goodbye to the girls, he follows Wooyoung and San to the nearest bench and sit there.
“We don’t want to beat around the bush. So, tell me, what do you want with her,” San started. Although he sounded so calm and poise, the way he clasps his hands together on the table stated otherwise.
Yunho decides to play around a little, just to see their reactions. The corner of his lip curls up into a smirk as he put his arm on the table. “Protective much?”
“She’s our friend, dumbass.”
This time, Wooyoung decided to speak up. Unlike San, anger and annoyance are clear in his tone. Judging by the reactions of San and Wooyoung, Yunho can already see how protective both men are towards you.
San is more on a warm and calm guy. Although he is pissed off or annoyed, he will try his best to keep his composure. However, Yunho can see Wooyoung as the guy who will directly deliver a punch on anyone’s face without thinking twice. He is certainly your daily arguing partner.
The smirk that he had earlier vanished slowly. He swallows down his saliva and looks at the two in the eye. His hands are now on the table.
“I know I gave out a bad first impression towards both of you before. But, this time, I won’t do what I did during my freshman year.”
San can hear the sincerity in Yunho’s voice. Yet, he cannot just trust the tall guy easily. Who knows if he has any tricks hiding in his sleeves.
“How can we be sure that we can trust you?”
Yunho already expected that question to pop up. Of course, no matter how truthful he is to his words, the suspicions will always be there. He would not blame them for doing so. It was his fault, to begin with.
With confidence in his eyes, his gaze moves to San. “Give me a chance and I’ll show you that I can take care of her, just like what she deserves.”
It had been two weeks ever since the meeting of the three guys. It is also the same duration as you and Yunho had been going on a date anytime you both can. There was once where you proposed to make it a double date, and thank god they agreed.
That night, you were sure that all four of you had fun. In your mind, you saw that the boys had slowly accepting Yunho, and you will not ask for more.
But, like the sentence stated – in your mind.
You are too focused on the development between Yunho and the two boys until you are oblivious at how Wooyoung felt.
He had been watching you these past few days. He can see that you’re growing more comfortable with Yunho. Somehow, he felt a tug in his heart.
He is not sure about the reason but he knows that he is hurt. Seeing you being happy with other people besides him and San gives his heart pain.
Since he always shooed the boys away from you before, he had never imagined how you would look like being with other people aside from both of them. Now, the visual is clear to his eyes.
When Yunho promised to take care of you, he thought it will be fine to let you be. But, it’s the other way around. The more he looks at the two of you, the more his heart clench inside. The happier you are around Yunho, the sadder Wooyoung becomes.
He always convinces himself that he is just being protective. However, seeing his current situation, the man himself is not sure if it is true or not.
You were reading a book on your bed when someone knocked on your door. You lift up your head and mutter a small come in.
The door to your room opens, revealing Wooyoung with his messy hair. His face looks… different. He seems upset and the way he plays with his fingers makes you feel worried.
“Do you need anything, Woo?”
Slowly, he walks into your room. Although you can clearly see his face, his gaze is down on the floor. His steps coming into a halt once he stands at the side of your bed.
“Can I sleep with you tonight,” he asked.
It is not the first time Wooyoung asked this question to you. In fact, every time one of the boys feel sad or need some comfort, they will come to you for a cuddle until they fall asleep.
If San can be seen as a teddy bear that provides warm hugs to people, you can be considered as their mother that gives affection and comfort when needed.
Whenever Wooyoung asks for cuddles, it usually means that he had been over-thinking on a matter. That is why it is not surprising when you heard a hint of sadness coming from his tone.
Without wasting time, you mark the chapter you are on and put the book on the nightstand. You move slightly to give space for Wooyoung before patting your side softly.
“Come here.”
He does not need to be asked twice. The man lifts up the blanket and directly slip inside it. His arm then automatically wraps around your waist and pulls you closer, giving him access to hide his face at your neck.
Instinctively, you imitate his action but with one of your hands caressing his head and your face buried in his hair.
None of you say anything until you decided to break the silence with a question. “Where is San?”
Wooyoung’s arm tightens around you after you dropped the question. You can feel his face gets a little bit hotter than before. What is wrong with this guy, you thought.
“There is a show coming up at our faculty. He and his team decided to stay overnight at the studio.”
Right, you forgot that San is a performer for the Music and Performance Art’s Faculty show. Every semester, the faculty will have an event where everyone can attend and enjoy their performance. It is also one of the ways the students’ will be evaluated.
No wonder you rarely see San last couple of days. Aside from being a dance student, he is also the assistant of his batch’s choreographer. Anyone who becomes the assistant to the choreographer must have a hidden talent. And that is one of the reasons why you are so proud of San.
“Let’s sleep. It’s getting late,” the man in your embrace said.
You said nothing but your lip form a soft smile at how fragile Wooyoung can be. He is usually seen as the tough guy, the guy that will hit and fight anyone that blocks his ways. Little did they know, Wooyoung can also be a softie when he wants to.
Your hand continues to caress his head gently until both of you drifted to dreamland.
San reaches home the next morning at 7:00 am. Honestly, he was tired from the all-nighter that he and his group had to pull out.
Walking towards the kitchen, he grabs a glass of water and finishes it in one go. He was too thirsty and he is still breathing heavily.
After washing the glass, he moves to his bedroom, hoping to see Wooyoung. However, his bed is empty and his boyfriend’s figure is nowhere to be found.
His gaze moves towards the room across his. Wooyoung always sleeps alone even though he knows that San will come back late. But, a voice in his heart asked him to open the door to your room.
And that is exactly what he did – revealing you and Wooyoung still deep in sleep, hugging each other tightly on the bed.

A/N: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR ONE AND ONLY SAN!!!!! In honor of his birthday, here is the chapter one of this series. Enjoy!
“Date? With Who,” Wooyoung asked as you grabbed a piece of toast and put it in your mouth, biting on the edge of it.
“Where will you go?” This time San was the one asking you. But still, you made no efforts to answer any of them.
“Why didn’t you tell us earlier,” Wooyoung asked again. This time, you took out the bread from your mouth and looked at both of the men in annoyance.
“Chill, boys. I’m just going on a date. Not get married.”
“But, why out of all sudden,” San tried asking you once again.
“Because I want a boyfriend too. Satisfied?”
Although the lecturer is talking at the front, Wooyoung heard nothing. It was as if everything went silent around him. He found himself biting on his pen as he thought about the conversation that the three of you had earlier.
Somewhere deep inside him, he feels uneasy with your sudden decision. The moment you said that you want to have a relationship, his heart dropped. Wooyoung is not sure why he felt like that but it’s so heavy that it makes him feel uncomfortable.
At the same time, San who is sitting next to his boyfriend is thinking about your condition. She has never been on a date before. Is she going to be okay? He thought.
Sticking together with WooSan does not only meant that they will be there only as your friends. Both of the boys can also be considered as your knights. They will always make sure to take care of you properly. They always treat you like a princess – no, a queen. With them besides you, no one will be able to hurt you.
It’s probably just me being protective of y/n. The boys thought.
You sneezed. Yunho who is beside you turns his head and holds your shoulder.
“Are you okay,” he asked. You said nothing but nod your head at his question, indicating that you are fine. That was weird. You knew you did not have flu today. Probably the classroom is starting to get dusty. That was why you sneezed earlier.
“So, what do you want to do later?” The man asked you once again.
Jeong Yunho, one of the smartest guys in the Engineering Faculty. He always aces in every examination. From freshman until Junior, he can be considered as an unbeatable guy when it comes to academics.
His visual cannot be forgotten too. He has the face that portrays softness. His height is way taller than most of the guys in here. According to his fangirls, he is a walking teddy bear because his hug is so warm and he will not hesitate to give it out if someone needs it.
And he is the one who will be your date for tonight. Call it luck or what, but you were quite surprised when he came to you and asked you to go out with him a few days ago. He said that he had been watching you from afar since he was scared to make the first move. He thought that you would get mad and started to throw stuff at him.
Which is why he was quite surprised when you accepted his offer. Honestly, you did not know why you said yes to him so quickly. Yes, you find him attractive but you never really thought of having real feelings for him.
However, you have never been to date before. Heck, no one had asked you out for your entire life. Maybe that was why you agreed with him. You wanted to try something new. Something that you have never done before.
Who knows, maybe it will develop into something much more than this.
“I want to buy a new book. Then, maybe we can eat something after that,” you suggested at Yunho. The said man flashes you a smile and nods his head.
Wooyoung and San had just finished their classes. Both men are currently walking in the hallway. None of them speak a word until a few minutes had passed.
“Do you think she will be okay,” the younger guy asked San. San let out a soft sigh at the question. Even though he was always the confident one between the three of you, this time, he cannot be sure of anything.
“I’m not sure. But, I hope she will have fun.”
Wooyoung clings himself onto San’s arms. WooSan had always displayed their affections in public even before they got together. At first, people would look at them with weird eyes. But, as time passed by, no one cares what they want to do. They can even make out in the hallway, against one of the lockers and nobody will dare to interrupt them.
Now, it is Wooyoung’s turn to sigh as he lays his head on San’s shoulder. “I can’t stop worrying about her, San.”
The older one reaches for Wooyoung’s head and pats it gently.
“She’s a big girl. I’m sure she’ll be fine.”
It’s been a few hours since you have finished your class and now you are in the bookstore with Yunho, for almost an hour. You keep searching for the right book to buy. Yet, you have not found the one that suits your taste.
In all honesty, aside from buying a new book, you brought Yunho here as a test to see if he can tolerate with your choosy ass or not. That was why you thought that he would whine and ask you to leave the store. But, it is the other way around. He just followed your steps quietly, like a dog with its owner.
Deep down, you know that he is not a reader like you. However, he chose to stay silent and let you do your thing. As you move your fingers through each book on the shelf, Yunho calls out your name, making you turn your head.
“Out of all things you can do, why read,” he asked. You smile to yourself for a few moments before facing the larger man completely.
“Before meeting San and Wooyoung, I used to be by myself. I did a lot of things to keep myself busy. At first, I’m not sure what I like to do. But, after reading a book, I suddenly got interested in reading. So, I continue to do so from time to time.”
Yunho nods his head in amusement. He didn’t know someone would be into books like you did. “You’re close with San and Wooyoung, huh?”
You flash another smile towards him before turning around to search for books. At the same time, you answer his question.
“We’ve known each other since high school. They were the ones who approached me first. At first, I thought that they were just a troublemaker. But, look where we are now. Thanks to them, I’m slowly opening up to people now.”
Yunho’s eyes are filled with nothing but softness as he stares at you. He had been on a few dates before, but none of those girls are like you. In his eyes, you are unique. Beautifully unique.
“What about you? Why engineering?” Your questions succeed in retrieving Yunho back to earth. He looks at you – who are still searching for books – for a few moments before answering you.
“I used to watch my dad do all those engineering stuff. Since I like field works more than papers, I decided to pursue my studies in this course.”
You just nod your head, still focusing on the books. In Yunho’s head, he felt grateful for enrolling in engineering. Besides pursuing his interest, he gets to meet someone like you.
After a while, you finally found a book that suits your tea. Without further ado, you grab onto Yunho’s hand and drag him to the counter. The man was stunned for a while at the sudden skinship, but slowly he got used to it.
Both you and Yunho exit from the store, with you holding your paper bag. Yunho looks at his side and smiles at the sight of you. You look so jolly until he feels like he can see sparkles in your eyes. She is so cute, he thought.
“Anything you want to eat for dinner?”
You look up to him and pursue your lips, thinking about the foods you want to have. “I feel like eating sushi.”
Yunho just smiles at you and nods his head once. “I know just a place.”
With that, both of you walk towards a Japanese restaurant and spend the rest of the night, getting to know each other better.
Wooyoung is starting to get more and more anxious as time passed by. He did not stop pacing around the living room.
On the contrary, San is a lot calmer than Wooyoung. He decided to be in the kitchen and cook dinner for three. He knows that you will be eating outside, but that does not mean you will not come back feeling hungry all over again.
“You worry too much, Woo,” San said from the kitchen. Although San remarked Wooyoung’s action, he still does not stop from doing so.
“How can I not get worried? What if he tried to do anything with y/n?”
After a while, the younger guy finally got tired and decides to sit down on the couch. San put on the lid on the pot, waiting for the soup to boil. He then turns around and looks at Wooyoung from the open space in the kitchen.
“Relax, baby. She’ll be fine.”
San tried to reassure Wooyoung, but it does not work. In fact, he got even more worried. Clasping his hands together, he rocks his body forth and back.
“What if she falls for the wrong guy? A psycho? Or a stalker-”
Wooyoung did not get the chance to finish his words when suddenly San interrupted him.
“Are you jealous?”
All of a sudden, everything went silent. Only the bubbling of the dish can be heard in the entire house. Wooyoung is now totally frozen at his spot. His eyes widen a bit and his lip parted slightly. It took a few seconds before San finally break the silence with a chuckle.
“I was kidding, baby,” he said. He turns around to the stove and uncovers the pot to taste the soup.
Even if San said that as a joke, Wooyoung cannot help but to overthink about his words. Is he jealous? He cannot be jealous. He already has San as his boyfriend. Why would he felt jealous when he already got the love of his life?
A lot of questions popped up into the man’s mind, but then it got interrupted with a notification on his phone. Y/N just posted a picture.
Upon seeing the picture, he immediately calls you. After it was ringing three times, you finally answer your phone.
“Where are you,” he asked.
“I’m on my way home. Why?” – You
Without answering your question, he ends the call, leaving you in confusion inside your car.
15 minutes later, Wooyoung hears a jiggling sound. You are finally home. He stands up from his seat and walks to the front door.
You were not looking at the front when you enter the house. It results in you getting surprised by the sudden voice of a man.
“Where did you go,” Wooyoung asked. You put your hand against your chest and scrunch up your face.
“Have mercy on my heart. I just came back home.” You rolled your eyes at the man as you said that. You put your shoe at the corner of the room before walking pass the younger guy.
San who just finished cooking walks out of the room with two gloves in his hand, holding the pot earlier. After he sets down the soup on the table, he turns to look at you, flashing his handsome smile.
“How’s the date, y/n?”
You return his smile with a small one and walks towards the table, observing the foods prepared by San. “It was great actually. I didn’t know why I’ve never done that before.”
Because I always chased the boys away from you, Wooyoung’s thought had answered your questions.
True to his words, ever since you got close with WooSan, he saw that a lot of guys finally had the courage to come up to you and asked you out. However, you are his sweet precious girl. He didn’t want the boys to hurt you. In return, he threatened anyone who wanted to confess and went on a date with you.
And according to his mind, that was just him being a protective friend for you.
A ding came from Wooyoung’s phone again. Now, it shows that Yunho had posted a picture in his feed too. What a coincidence, huh? But, what he saw made his eyes bigger than before.
“You went out with Yunho?”
You got startled slightly at the sudden interruption of Wooyoung. But, you just nod your head, indicating yes.
Both San and Wooyoung look at each other. Nervous and worry clearly apparent on their eyes. They gulp down their saliva before the younger guy decided to talk.
“Stop whatever you are doing with him.”
Your eyebrows frown at the sudden sentence. “Why?”
San let out a sigh and lick his lips. “Y/n…”
You turn your head to the man with the same expression as before. San slowly walks towards you until he is standing right in front of you.
