i think we all saw this coming as i haven’t posted in over a month, but i have decided take an unofficial indefinite hiatus. the reasons of this hiatus is due to mainly school and the stress from it, but an other underlying one is,,, because of my mental health. due to certain factors going on in my life currently, i thought being on a hiatus would be the best decision for me in order for me to get myself together again.
however, though this is a hiatus, i will be posting occasionally, hence the “unofficial” title. i will be posting my works for the collabs and finishing up requests, but i can’t guarantee anything outside of these. as of now, i do not have a return date in mind, but i’m hoping it will be sometime this summer. take care everyone <3

swinging idly on the worn wooden swing, the whistle of the passing wind chilled your blood, sending goosebumps to rise rapidly along your skin. it was becoming increasingly chillier as the minutes flew by, your boredom growing quickly as you waited patiently in the concealed garden. although the snow white lilies and the perfect view of the twinkling night sky were all breathtaking to admire to begin with, frequent visits to this clearing had accustomed you to the appealing sights that gracefully littered the wellkept area.

swinging idly on the worn wooden swing, the whistle of the passing wind chilled your blood, sending goosebumps to rise rapidly along your skin. it was becoming increasingly chillier as the minutes flew by, your boredom growing quickly as you waited patiently in the concealed garden. although the snow white lilies and the perfect view of the twinkling night sky were all breathtaking to admire to begin with, frequent visits to this clearing had accustomed you to the appealing sights that gracefully littered the wellkept area.
a cool breeze blew against your back, kissing your scalp gently and allowing for your legs to be carried up with each gust of the frigid air. the slight spring frost weaved through the air punctured through your shield of a tunic covering your midsection, sending waves of tingles down your chilly spine. you instinctively hunched your shoulders up in response, attempting to retain the heat that was tauntingly slipping away from your body. relaxing your tight grip on the rough, twisted rope that stemmed from the old rectangular grain, you leaned your head against your gloved hand, eyelids fluttering shut as you zoned out for the moment, the subtle cold and the lack of sleep having caught up to your drowsy state.
all of a sudden, the soft thump of footfalls resonated behind your back, but you were too lethargic to pay any heed to the alarming sound. instead, your body subconsciously froze in your seated position on the swing, the fear only igniting when a crunch of a twig abruptly cracked through the silence, immediately jerking you out of the sluggish haze clouding your senses. that was when you remembered that you sneakily slipped out from your shared quarters, and judging by the position of the luminescent moon, it was only a matter of time before one of the workers realized that you had disappeared.
surges of pure panic flooded through your veins, rushing to your frantically buzzing thoughts that were attempting to find a way to escape. afraid of a stray guard patrolling the area, you attempted to command every muscle in your body to just run, but it haughtily denied your request. the faint padding of the footsteps grew closer as the seconds went, causing your heartbeat to race furiously along with. it was petrifying to say the least, believing that you were about to get caught and sentenced to a worse form of punishment as a subject usually was for committing a violation of this caliber, especially at this time of the day.
finally, a muscle located on your right hand twitched in the slightest, giving way for the spell engulfing the rest of your body to disappear at once. as you were releasing your grasp on the shaggy ropes, a second crack of a twig was produced right behind your back. your veins filled with ice, sending waves of fear down your spine. it was as if you were a statue, with the exception of your rapidly beating chest and lightheaded mind swaying you in circles. ‘this is it,’ you thought, waiting for the guard to triumphantly call you out, or maybe even strike you if he dared.
‘choi san, it would be a really good time if you showed up right about now-’
a pair of clothed arms suddenly snaked around you, one capturing your waist and another covering your mouth, in a cautious manner, as if each movement was judged off your reaction. there was no point to this alertness though, as you did not produce a spontaneous reaction in the first place. you were too tensed up and afraid to even utter a single word, to retaliate back to this seemingly foreign human. your brain went into overdrive, drowning out any feeling as it calculated the best possible ways to force yourself out of this frightened situation. you were zoned out, anticipating for the absolute worst, not noticing how the stranger pressed themself against your back, bringing their mouth closer to your chilly ear until they suddenly whispered.
“boo”
“choi san i swear to fucking god-”
“hello to you too sweetheart~”
the cheeky melodious voice danced through your ears, penetrating any plan you had of fleeing in an instant. tilting your head upwards, you caught the sight of san’s sparkling orbs gazing down at you, weaved with contentment within the varying shades of umber glittering in the moonlight. he was absolutely mesmerizing, your breath caught in your throat at the alluring sight of him under the magnificent beams, threads of silver weaving diligently through his raven locks. it was promptly whisked away from your lungs the longer you got lost in the enchanting galaxies contained in the pupils of his eyes.
though, instead of breaking out in a sweet, fond smile as you would whenever you were surrounded by the presence of the prince, a deadpan settled upon your tired facial features, still not recovered over the frightening scare he had given you a minute prior.
“whaaat? why are you looking at me like that,” san whined, his lower lip jutting out in a sulky pout as his eyebrows knitted in confusion, “i didn’t scare you that bad.”
the bright chirping of crickets filled the sudden hush that manifested in the air between the both of you after his words.
“okay, i didn’t mean to scare you that badly.”
“doesn’t mean that i’ll forgive you for it.”
“hey!”
san maneuvered to the other side of the swing, becoming the sole view in your line of vision. lifting his right hand up, he placed his nimble fingers under your chin, angling your head to meet his eyes properly. silence hung in thick clouds between you two, him waiting for you to forgive him and you waiting for him to apologize. when it became clear to the prince that neither of you were going to budge, he stuck out his lip even further, cutely puffed out his cheeks, and tried to summon the softest expression he could in an attempt to rile you up.
and like how san predicted, you fell for it, just like every other time he pulled this trick from his sleeve.
“hey, don’t look at me like that! you know i can’t resist your puppy eyes.”
“then forgive me.”’ it was difficult for you to not give into the ever growing heat lovingly blooming from your chest due to his endearing antics, but you were stubborn this time around.
“hmm, i’ll think about it.”
“ynnnn,” complained san, the clingy whine turning into a series of grumbles as the prince huffed and tightly crossed his arms against his chest. spinning on his heel, he wheeled around until the solid block of ashen fabric casing the expanse of his broad back and the mop of ebony strands were the only objects in your vision. deeply sighing at his glum moping, you annoyedly (not really) rolled your eyes before the corners of your mouth curled upwards, a wide grin etching its way onto your lips. slipping off the swing, you leaned forward to slither your cool arms around san’s waist, hugging him snugly as you buried your face into his warm body.
“you’re an idiot, you know.” you could feel your boyfriend’s shoulders slightly shaking as he lightly giggled, him twirling around at once to return the adoring embrace.
“yes but i’m your idiot.” cupping your cheeks gently, he pecked your forehead gently before innocently booping your nose with his as he rested his own forehead on yours. choi san was the enchanting prince of the kingdom, the king’s pride and honor, while you were a mere commoner who eventually resulted in becoming the sole treasure that he valued with his life, even though the both of you knew it was never meant to be.
yet, as he tenderly captured your lips with ease, you knew that you wouldn’t have it any other way.

✧ summary: you and minghao paint under the comfort of the stars.
✧ word count: 1,168
✧ warnings: none
↳ an: this is for ficscafe scenario event ! this is also for @minghaofilm <33 i hope this makes up for all the angst :D
lightly pressing his fingertips to the cool glass, minghao peered down at the bustling city below, the full landscape composed of various shades of gray, with a myriad of bright colors dotting the expanse. shifting to where he was kneeling against the frigid glass, he inspected the numerous pale, sandy lights across the land, which provided the many buildings life in the depths of the approaching night, a welcoming beacon to all who seeked its comfort. in fact, he had his own illuminant perched on the ivory walls beside him, radiating a dim glow that subtly reflected off of the numerous paints littered behind him.
however, perhaps the true comfort laid in the sea of the friendly stars above, the faint twinkling of the gleaming canvas silently accompanying those who walk under. glancing upwards into the vast pool of ultramarine, minghao was greeted with a gentle warmth in his heart, the soft kisses of starlight dancing over his paint covered face with ease. his chestnut orbs lit up in childlike awe once more, charmed by the sight of the infinite celestial bodies. he had to admit, the kindness of the minuscule lights made the days favorable, never failing to lift his spirits on a gloomy day.
but, in his eyes, maybe the brightest star of them all was you, the little light of his life.
turning his head slightly to his left, minghao took a sly peek at your concentrated form, legs sitting crisscrossed as you meticulously painted on a canvas positioned on the small metal easel in front of you. the furrow of your eyebrows and the poke of your tongue past your slightly parted lips elicited a fond smile to appear on his face, sending buds of blissful affection to bloom across his chest. scattered around your feet were an array of silvery paint tubes and forgotten paintbrushes, with a heavily covered wooden palette claiming space by your thigh. a used cup of murky water was placed a half a foot away from your elbow, something minghao would continuously nag you about due to how easily you would knock over the plastic cup whenever the two of you painted together.
the most ethereal part of the sight though, as if you weren’t already, was how the luster of the stars grazed your skin tenderly, threads of intricately spun moonlight delicately weaving between each strand of your hair, setting you aglow with divinity and innocence. this rendered minghao speechless, gazing at you with an endearing wonder that one would only call as pure, raw love. he was aware of this though, but he never minded it, no matter how much his members playfully teased him about it. minghao could only feel his love for you exponentially grow as the days flew by, eventually blooming into an enchanting flower that would stay rooted in his heart till the end of time.
“oh yeah did i tell you that...'' you suddenly spoke into the peaceful silence, albeit faintly as to not wanting to shatter the cloud of serene sentiment hanging low in the air. silently observing, he watched as you chattered quietly, the words flowing from your lips transforming into a melodious song that breezed through his ears as his surroundings submerged under an invisible wave. it was as if minghao was lulled into a bewitching spell, one that was sung by you, the only witch he would be a fool for.
“were you even listening to me?”
minghao flinched as he was pulled from his pleasant reverie, brought back to the nip of reality as he removed his fingers from the pane of glass. you slightly tilted your head in a puzzled manner at the glass sheen draped over your boyfriend’s eyes, setting the damp paintbrush between your fingers onto the marble tiled floor.
“earth to hao, are you there... must i have to fling this cup of water at you-”
“i would preferably like to stay dry, thank you very much,” he remarked drily, amusement laced in his tone.
“and so he speaks,” you exaggeratedly gesture with your hands, corners of your mouth discreetly turning upwards, “what had you so deep in thought?”
“other than you, nothing much, besides the beautiful scenery outside,” minghao replied, a sly, yet timid smirk crawling onto his lips. stretching his arms wide behind his head, he returned to his standing position by the window, back facing you. he heard you splutter embarrassedly for a brief moment, the evident fluster resulting in a heat to wash up his neck, a rosy blush growing upon the apples of his cheeks.
“you- hao-“ a dull clang suddenly punctured the air, sending minghao into a surprised jump. he didn’t need to twist around to know how the sound was produced though, a long sigh exiting his mouth as he disappointedly casted his gaze downwards.
“oh shit.”
“the cup fell over, didn’t it.”
“…maybe, maybe not.” a moment of silence drifted through the room, save for the faint melody of classical music wandering idly. “so, did you finish your painting?”
“did you even finish yours?” minghao retorted teasingly, turning round to be met with the view of you staring dejectedly at the pigmented puddle of water laying sullenly on the floor. chuckling lowly, he shuffled to where his own painting patiently sat, the tall canvas balancing dangerously on the weak easel. catching sight of the portrait, an affectionate vine of warmth sprouted from his heart, curling around it with care. instead of squeezing harshly though, the welcomed vine bloomed intimate buds of love, ones that minghao imagined to be a pristine shade of white, signaling the pure love nestled within the bonds of the relationship. the silver of the petals would glitter in even the weakest rays of light, much like the abundant stars dabbed along the top half of the canvas, surrounding a figure of a human, one that closely resembled you.
“okay so maybe i didn’t finish but…” once more, your words blended out into the background as all his senses blurred together, except for his sharp sight, which was trained on the portrait of you in front of him, specifically on the reflection of the little lights held within your pupils. tearing his gaze from the easel, minghao glanced upwards, accidentally catching your eyes as you rambled happily.
in that split of a second, he was taken aback by the enchanting glow of your eyes, the starlight from the sky seeming to weave alluringly between the complexity of your orbs. the luminescence of the stars danced gracefully upon the shine of your pupils, luring him into a foggy haze until all he could comprehend was you.
glimpsing back down at the canvas, at the twinkle of white dabs, and then back up at the celestial beam radiating around you, minghao could only think that the only star that would ever be relevant in his life, the one that would easily rival the brightest and biggest star in the universe, would forever be you.

“we are really doing this aren’t we”
staring at the blazing tendrils rocketing sky high against the illuminated inky sky, your leather sheathed hand,which was grasping a jewel encrusted necklace, trembled in anticipation. lifting it up to eye level, you gazed at it with a twinge of longing, the internal fear within your downcasted orbs reflecting upon the largest diamond of the neckpiece.
“it’s too late to back out now. we’ve gone too far, too deep to regret our sins. you know this as well as i do yn.”
wooyoung blindly searched for your hand beside you as he idly observed the radiant bonfire burning a few feet away. his eyes were glazed over, the licks of white fire decorating the glowing pupils as he immersed in thought. in his other hand was a crown, one significantly larger and remarkably fancier than the intricate necklace shivering in your clutch. it appeared as a crown fit for a royal king.
the incessant chirping of crickets filled the passing silence between you two, the inner turmoil gnawing away at the crumbling walls surrounding your heart. you never thought this night would feel like this, not after the numerous dreams had confidently convinced you otherwise. maybe it was the nostalgia; maybe it was the emotional ties; maybe it was the cunning words that still shackled you tightly to the tainted soil of the wretched palace. whichever it may be, you weren’t going to stick around long enough to discover.
“you ready woo?”
“as much as a person could ever be”
when two separate sets of quivering fingers wove together into an unsteady interlocked hold, you and wooyoung pivoted slightly towards one another, holding eye contact for the very last time. peering into his eyes for any thread of regret, you surprisingly found placid contentment instead, the composed kind that was the least bothered by anyone and anything. as you were distracted by your musings, wooyoung’s hand that possessed the crown sneakily toyed with a concealed object tucked away into the long sleeve of his jacket.
you wished that you had paid more attention to that. then, maybe you would have been able to stop what came next.
“its you and me against the world alright? i’m never going to leave your side,” the male whispered in reassurance, taking notice of the tears of rising doubt lining the rims of your eyes.
“thank you woo,” you shakily mumbled, weakly squeezing his palm, “i love you.”
the male chose to stay silent after your words, the response piercing a stinging hole in your throbbing chest. untangling your fingers from his, you faced towards the intimidating flame, shuffling closer until the scorching heat was just bearable for your skin to handle. despite the warmth, your veins felt icy, the cold pricking viciously throughout your body. “shall i count down your majesty?”
you heard wooyoung exhale defeatedly, muttering solemnly under his breath before he made his way beside you. from your peripheral vision, you watched him flip the crown round, inspecting it bitterly, before answering your question.
“if you must”
“countdown from three?” you questioned hesitantly, directing your vision to wooyoung for confirmation.
“sounds alright to me.” he gave a tiny nod before handing his head loosely, chin grazing his collarbone as he fluttered his eyelids shut. “i’m ready when you are.”
clearing your throat as you too closed your eyes, you scrunched up the lightly weighted necklace in your grip, readying it to be thrown. “i shall now commence your majesty.”
right after you spoke, the air around you both turned exceedingly crisp, much too prickly for comfort. something wasn’t right, but you ignored it for the sake of your teetering rationality.
funny how ignorance can be euphoric bliss, but also a person’s dreaded demise.
“3”
frantic shuffling filled your ears, seeming to come from wooyoung himself. a low incomprehensible mutter brushed your eardrum, submerging under the intensifying silence encapsulating your conscience.
“2”
an annoyed groan sounded this time, audible enough to shatter the spaced headspace of yours. your stomach churned rapidly in anxiousness, indicating the wave of frigid panic crawling up your spine. every muscle in your body froze in fear, immobile as it awaited its doom. it seemed like your body knew more than your mind could work at the moment.
it truly was a pity.
“wooyoung what the hell are you doin-”
“1”
wooyoung’s voice rang out clearly right behind you as your eyes flew open, suddenly feeling searing strikes of unbearable pain abruptly emerging from your stomach. it blinded you momentarily as you crashed hard onto your knees, shock gripping your body. the forgotten necklace was left to fly from your weak palm, landing on a patch of burnt dirt, with the pendant lying vulnerably on the crumbly soil beneath.
“sometimes, certain measures need to be taken to ensure one’s position in life. unfortunately, this had to be one of them,” wooyoung whispered sullenly from behind, wiping aggressively at the corners of his eyes as he spoke. the bloody knife that was haphazardly tucked away in his sleeve glinted mockingly with the glow of the bonfire. “i’m so sorry it had to be this way yn.”
deafening silence poured out between the two souls, both at a sincere loss for words to console the other. it was rather saddening, the once fiery flame of the star crossed lovers was now reduced to pathetic ashes, ready to be blown away with even the slightest gust of air.
and there was no one else to blame than the notorious king, who was none other than the renowned jung wooyoung.
