Just Fine Until It's Not

SF9 when their special other's love language is cooking

genre: fluff

pairing: SF9 x gn reader

requested

Bonus song rec: Moon Jong Up - Us

➹Youngbin:

Youngbin gets used to your love language so quickly! After you showed up two times with homemade snacks he is not surprised anymore. It is not a bad thing at all, he still smiles with the same enchantment and tender eyes. "What did you bring this time?" he playfully asks taking your tote bag from your shoulder in case it is heavy. He loves to hear you talking about recipes and appreciates that you share your favorite ones with him.

➹ Inseong:

Oh my, I think Inseong would be so proud of his talented girlfriend/boyfriend, always bragging about your skills to his friends and family. Don't be surprised if one of his members tells you how good that pie tasted. Inseong was so excited about you making him a whole and delicious pie that he shared it with his members while he could not stop talking about you. " of course she/he can do a lot of things other than cooking". Also, he is gonna propose to you quite fast lol

➹Jaeyoon:

Jaeyoon will pamper you 1000 times more every time you offer an appetizing dish. You can literally make him food a million times and he would still be amazed by your gesture. Ok, let's go to the spoiling part. He feeds you like a baby even if you say the dish is all for him. "Nooo. Open your mouth, love" He also makes the cutest faces as he tastes each portion, telling you it is even better than the last time you cooked.

➹ Dawon:

Dawon is the opposite of Inseong in the sense that he will never share the food you made him with his friends or anyone. The fact that you express your love by cooking is so precious to him. He texts you a few times during the week to say he still thinks about the cupcakes he ate on the holiday. He normally texts you quite a lot so he needs multiple subjects.

➹ Zuho:

Juho is so obvious, once you all finish the meal that you prepared with so much love, he goes for cuddles. There are no excuses, none of you are washing the dishes or anything. CUDDLES. It is a simple relationship, you make sure that he eats well and he composes special songs for you. The number of times you entered his studio with something healthy to your boyfriend is uncountable. "You always know when I need a break"

➹ Rowoon:

I feel like at some point Rowoon will convert your talent and passion for cooking into quality time. I mean, you all start to have cooking dates because he asks you to teach him. "No, I'm not asking you to stop cooking for me, I wanna spend more time with you, love." He loves watching you and kissing the top of your head when you are distracted.

➹ Yoo Taeyang:

Unlike Youngbin, Taeyang will be surprised every time you gift him with food. He likes to let you know about his schedule so you are aware of his most busy days. These ones are when you prepare his favorite dishes so he will be able to relax at the end of the day. "Oh, babe, you're perfect". He takes your hand from time to time while he eats.

➹ Hwiyoung:

I feel like Hwi is a pretty chill boyfriend, hence you all prefer peaceful dates, such as stargazing or having picnics. You always offer to cook something for the occasion and he helps you with ideas and chopping ingredients. At these moments you both look more like a married couple than anything.

➹ Chani:

His mood is always lifted by your food. It does not matter if he is really upset or if he is already in a good mood. "Look at you being an angel again" He likes to tease you for spoiling him too much. It is clear that he is so thankful. Chani treats any of your skills with naturality instead of calling all the attention to them. Yet he admires you a lot and he tells you it by praises when you are alone.

warning: just a tiny hint of sex

It's not that you are down to whatever, you're there to anything he comes up with. You are not only a girlfriend, you are a partner in crime. Both your bodies and your minds speak the same language which no one else can comprehend. True, you seduce him with the way your head tilts as you persuade him into staying for the night, also with the way you let him know it is a good time for love. He is there to anything you come up with.

Inseong's type of girl

휘영 ♡

4 + inseong

4. Sharing an umbrella in the rain.

college!au (( and vague friends to lovers!au ))

the sun is setting over the university campus in a thousand shades of pink that you can see from the window of the library

you can feel the end of spring in the scent of the air, can see the first flowers of the new year wither to make place for the next ones

however, what you couldn’t see from inside while packing up was the murky grey clouds gathering

there aren’t many people still around on a friday evening — at this time there might be a few lectures still dragging on or club practice

but the quad is deserted when you walk across, trying to tuck your most important things under the fabric of your hoodie as the rain starts coming down in fat droplets that seem like they are in slow motion

you don’t hear inseong’s heavy footsteps as he runs up to you because of the sound of the rain

the drumming of it simultaneously becomes louder and drowns out when his umbrella is lifted above your head

“hey” he breathes out a little breathlessly, looking at you with that goofy smile of his that makes his dark eyes sparkle 

it’s like looking into your own little night sky

when you greet him back and thank him, he shifts closer to you while walking and nags you a little bit for not calling him

“i didn’t know you were around and i wouldn’t want to bother you” you explain to him 

“you can call me anytime,” he says seriously

and you can’t look him in the eye because you know he means it and it makes your heart do this strange dip

“yeah, just. it wouldn’t bother me. call me,” he adds, trying to sound nonchalant as he clears his throat and looks away at the greens of the campus getting drenched with rain

When He Back Hugs You ~ SF9 Reaction

Inseong:

Your head shook as Inseong came up behind you and wrapped his arms around your waist to stop you from moving as you carried on getting some work done.

He was stubborn, having spent long enough watching you get things done. “Come and sit down for a little while,” he suggested when he heard you sigh at him.

“I’ve got things to do,” you tried your best to tell him, wriggling out of his grip, “I can be yours once I’m done here.”

“You’re stressing yourself out,” Inseong pointed out.

“I’m alright, it’s just a little bit busy.”

Inseong continued to hold you tightly, stopping you from walking anywhere, “why don’t you take a break and come and cuddle up to me for a while?”

“Because I know that you won’t let me go,” you joked, knowing him far too well, “that break will end up with me being done for the day.”

He nodded smugly, impressed by how easily you could read him, “I still don’t think that would be a bad idea, don’t you want to cuddle up to me?”

“Soon, I promise, once this is done.”

Youngbin:

Your eyes looked back straight away as a familiar pair of arms wrapped around you, letting go of a sigh as soon as Youngbin relaxed against your frame.

A yawn escaped him as he found himself getting comfortable behind you. “I’m tired,” he whispered, his voice groggy from the long day that he had had.

“Do you want to go to bed?” You asked him, pressing your hands to his arms that held around your tummy securely.

“Haven’t you got things to do?” He enquired back.

“They can wait until tomorrow to do.”

Youngbin couldn’t help the smile on his face, glad to finally be able to rest for a little while. “I just want to sleep and not open my eyes for a long time.”

“I’ve not seen you this sleepy for a long time,” you commented, stunned by how exhausted Youngbin was relaxing against you.

A hum came from him as he slowly walked behind you to the stairs, “they worked us so hard today at the studio, it was a bit of a nightmare.”

“At least at home you can dream.”

Jaeyoon:

As another sigh came from you as you walked around the room from the feeling of cramps in your stomach, Jaeyoon couldn’t help but feel sorry for you.

In no time at all he appeared behind you, hugging you from behind and massaging his hands over the bottom of your stomach. “Is that helping you?”

“So much,” you breathed in relief, finally able to feel the tension in your stomach ease just a tiny little bit for once.

“I’m sorry your cramps are bad,” Jaeyoon frowned.

“It’s alright, just one of those things.”

His grip around you tightened in order to hold onto more of you, “we can stay here for a while if you want? I’ll try and ease that pain for you Y/N.”

“I’d really appreciate that,” you smiled in reply to Jaeyoon, “you always seem to have the right answers when it comes to this.”

The smile on his face grew at your compliment, “I just like trying to find the best ways to help you, and back hugs and massages seem to work well.”

“They’re the best, they work every time.”

Dawon:

It didn’t take much for Sanghyuk to realise that you were cold as he watched you walk around the room, shuddering to yourself as you tried to warm up.

As soon as you were close enough to him, he hugged you from behind and started running his hands against you, “if you’re cold, you should have said something.”

“I thought I’d warm up,” you laughed back to him, “I thought you’d be a bit too busy to worry about me just being cold.”

“Are you crazy? I worry always,” he responded.

“Even sometimes when you don’t need to.”

A knowing smile appeared on Sanghyuk’s face as he met your eyes, “I know you like to pretend not to be bothered, but I know you love being protected.”

“By you? Who wouldn’t love being protected?” You teased, “everywhere we go, I know that I’m going to be well looked after.”

His hands continued to run against you, “and when you’re at home and cold too, I’ll look after you then and try my best to warm you back up.”

“You’re doing a good job of that too.”

Zuho:

Your eyes went wide as you caught Juho walking into the bedroom with several gift bags in his hand, placing them down on the bed before heading to you.

Your head shook in disbelief as he came up behind you and hugged you, squeezing you tightly. “Happy birthday,” he whispered, pressing a kiss against your cheek.

“Thank you,” you chuckled, resting your head back to sit against Juho’s shoulder, “are all of those for me by any chance?”

“Just a couple of gifts,” Juho joked in reply to you.

“A couple? There’s loads over there Juho.”

He proudly nodded back at you, “you’re worth it, and I wanted to treat you for your birthday,” he smiled, turning you both around so that you could take a look.

“I reckon I can figure out what a couple of these bits are,” you teased, knowing a few of the items that you had mentioned wanting.”

His eyes continued to glance across at you, “there’s a few surprises in there too, things you’ll hopefully like, I put a lot of thought into getting these.”

“If you bought them, they’ll be perfect.”

Rowoon:

You moved through into the kitchen as you started to make yourself some dinner, however as you did, footsteps could be heard coming from behind you.

You didn’t have time to look around before a pair of arms wrapped tightly around your sides. “I’m home,” a familiar voice whispered into your ear, followed by a chuckle.

“Seokwoo?” You gasped, recognising the hold anywhere, looking back slightly to make sure that it was really him there.

“I’ve missed you so much,” he quickly professed to you.

“You’re not due home for another week.”

His head nodded with a wide smile, “we managed to finish shooting a little bit early so I thought I’d come and surprise you, I’ve waited for you for ages upstairs.”

“Our meeting overrun,” you laughed in reply, “does this mean that you’re staying? You don’t have to go back to the set again, right?”

The corners of his smile continued to turn up, “I’m staying home for the foreseeable, and I don’t plan on letting you go whilst I’m at home for a while.”

“I’m not complaining, I’ve missed your hugs.”

Yoo Taeyang:

Excitement got the better of Taeyang as his arms suddenly wrapped around your waist and flung you up in the air as he came up to hug you from behind.

You had no idea what was going on, left only to figure things out by his smile. “I knew this would happen,” Taeyang told you once he found a moment to relax a little.

“What’s happened?” You asked, craning your neck back as best as you could so that you could turn your eyes to look at him.

“We got nominated for an award,” he proudly told you.

“No way, what did you get picked for?”

With one arm still around you, the other picked up his phone to be able to show you the email. “We got nominated for best performance,” he excitedly told you.

“That’s amazing,” you smiled back at Taeyang, resting your hand over his on your waist, “there’s no group more deserving than you guys are.”

A deep breath came from Taeyang as he struggled to compose himself, “we’ve waited so long to get a nomination like this, and now we’ve finally got it.”

“I told you, it was only a matter of time.”

Hwiyoung:

A sigh of relief came from Youngkyun as he finally saw you walk through the front door, immediately rising to his feet as you slipped your coat off and hung it up.

His arms wrapped around you from behind, resting his cheek against the top of your back. “You were staring to scare me Y/N, it’s getting pretty dark out early these days.”

“I didn’t realise how late it was,” you admitted, taking a couple of steps back into the house, “I just needed some time to think.”

“I don’t want us to be mad anymore,” he suddenly replied.

“I don’t want that for us both either.”

Youngkyun nuzzled himself closer into you, glad to finally have you home and know that you were safe. “I’m sorry for getting so mad at you earlier for no reason.”

“It wasn’t just your fault,” you assured him, “I’m sure that I said plenty of things that I shouldn’t have when the two of us were arguing earlier.”

Youngkyun’s head shook in reply to you, “I was the reason why the fight started, therefore it’s my fault that we’ve ended up here, I should have acted better.”

“Let’s just forget about it all now.”

Chani:

A gasp came from you as a sudden pair of arms wrapped around your frame, with Chanhee lifting you up and bringing you tightly into his chest with a wide smile.

Your eyes looked back, shooting a glare across at him to let him know how much he had surprised you. “Have I told you how sweet you look today?” He then suddenly asked you.

“What have you done?” Was your only response, knowing exactly what he was like, “you never hug me like this for no reason.”

“I’m just trying to be a better boyfriend,” Chanhee defended.

“You’ve got a look in your eyes too.”

A chuckle came from him as his head shook, squeezing you tighter, “I promise you that I am up to nothing, I just wanted to give you a hug, is that so bad?”

“No,” you trailed off, still slightly suspicious as you tried to read Chanhee’s mind, “maybe I could get used to this new side of you if this is what this is.”

Chanhee nodded in response, “there’s nothing more to this then a loving boyfriend wanting to connect more with their partner, what’s so wrong about that?”

“Nothing, it’s nice to be hugged by you.”

binseong as students!

it’s been super long since i wrote smth .. and i miss sepgu alot more since binseong enlisted :’) i hope they’re doing well, and i decided to write this to cheer fantasies up! enjoyy~ 🫶

youngbin

— .. class president ,, OR OR a student leader of some sort, atleast has a position in the student council/board !!

— everyone goes to youngbin for help and though it gets a little overwhelming sometimes, he tries to help them as much as he can

— he’s a good leader and all, but his acads isn’t the best DJSJDK (i think he said so himself that he doesn’t excel really well in school) but he compensates for that with hardwork ofc, and still does averagely well :) i feel like he’s stronger in languages/humanities

— juniors have crushes on him bc he always helps out during orientations, and he’s just really sweet and helpful ╰(*´︶`*)╯

— hates doing logistics. especially when events come up, the council has to work out costs and youngbin will immediately step out. he doesn’t trust himself with calculations he tried calculating some of the costs before and he was way off when someone came to check

inseong

— big brain. need i say more? people think he’s naturally smart and all but it took him alot of diligence and self-discipline to get to where he is. in return, he does his best to help students with acads whenever he’s free!

— set up a mini community within the school for students to come interact with other and help out with acads. smth like a huge study group, just that juniors and seniors are all mixed up.

— super friendly !! alot of people think he’s snobby because he’s 1st in acads but he’s really willing to help. inseong is really easy to talk to, many students like coming to him just to talk :)

— has taught classes before. sometimes the teachers in his class don’t show up, and the relief teacher either is running late/doesn’t teach the subject. inseong then just goes up and takes charge. it’s become a daily thing for his classmates to pray their teachers aren’t present. his lessons are easy to follow, short yet concise.

— besides his role as a really smart dude, he pranks the shit out of people.

The Night Before - Kim Inseong

Requested By: Anon

Warnings: Angst, fluff.

W/C: 891

It was the night before his enlistment, and you were sitting with him on his bed, he was across from you, holding your hands in his, just earlier the day they had shaven his head, yet, he still managed to look cute, but you didn’t feel in a too good mood, seeing as this was you saying goodbye for a while.

“You’ll come and visit me once you’re allowed to, right?” He asks, his tone soft, something you weren’t used to, he was always so happy and bubbly, but he could feel the heavens in the air. “I’ll send you a message when they’ll allow visits,” You sadly smile at him, and lean closer to him.

“Of course, but you should let your family come visit you first,” You say, he squeezes your hands and pulls on them, pulling you on top of him as he lays back, you softly giggle, he could hear the sadness in your giggle.

“Don’t be sad… I’ll be back before you can blink,” He says, he was trying his best to cheer you up. “You’ll see, these months will fly by in no time,” You smile and adjust yourself on top of him, crossing your arms over his chest ad resting your chin on his chest. “Please don’t be sad, you’re going to make me cry.”

“Don’t cry,” You softly say. “It’s a heartbreaking sight to see you cry,” He places his hand on your hip and slowly moves it to the middle of your back before sliding it along your spine.

“It’s heartbreaking to see you cry also,” He softly says. “You’ll end up making me run away with you,” You give him a small smile, his fingers reaching the back of your neck before sliding over the back of your head and stopping there. “I wish we could freeze time and go out, the world would be frozen, and no one would spot us as we run around the city, painting it different colours.”

“Inseeonngg,” You whine, moving your head into his chest, hiding it from him, he smiles and moves his other hand to your hip and slips his hand underneath the fabric of your shirt, letting the warmth from his hand reach your skin. “You’re going to make me break you out not even a week in.”

“Will you?” He asks, you lift your head to look at him, seeing him smiling at you, his eyes glistening with joy. “Will you come and break me out, so we can run away, and disappear into the sunset?” You chuckle and shake your head. “It’s okay… I’m sure you’ll be able to come and visit me once training is over, but you’ll see… the next couple of months will pass by so fast, you won’t even realize I wasn’t home,” You let out a soft sigh.

“Home… gosh, you’re home to me, Inseong,” You say, he gently squeezes your hip, and you feel his fingers twitch against your scalp. “I’m going to miss you so much.”

“I’m going to miss you too,” He says. “But when you miss me, come stay here, keep my bed warm, this should be our home,” You pause, almost freezing at his words, ‘our home’.

“Are you seriously asking me to move in with you the day before you leave?” You ask, he smiles at you. “Inseong,” You were about to slap his chest when he turned you both around and pinned you against the bed.

“I’m trusting you with my key, and if you like living here… move in with me when I’m back.” He says, his hands were now holding your hands and pressing them against the mattress as he used his hips to keep yours to the bed. “You have seventeen months to think about it,” His eyes stared down at you, a faint smile on his lips. “No rush.”

“Obviously there is no rush,” You say. “I could take over while you’re not here, you’re entrusting me with your key,” He smiles and leans down.

“I’m hoping you’ll take over, it’ll be the best welcome home present if I found your things here,” He says, he leans down more and presses his lips against yours, softly kissing you, your lips move slowly, and you take the moment with him, letting it burn into your mind, letting the feeling burn into your mind. “And then we can sleep side-by-side every single night,” He climbs off you, pulling you to lay on your side, so you could face him. “And fall asleep staring at each other, or laughing… sharing about our day.”

“You better hurry back then, the bed is going to get cold pretty quickly without you here,” You say, he smiles at your words.

“I’ll hurry back home to you, it’ll be like I wasn’t even gone,” He says. “And then we can move your things in here together, or we could find a bigger space.”

“The space is big enough, I promise you that,” You say. “We don’t need a bigger one, it’s big enough,” He hums and snuggles closer to you, his head moves to your chest, and he takes in a deep breath, it quiets down and slowly you both fall asleep, him snuggling against you and your arms around him, your legs tangling with each other as the night passes.

traveling around the world with Inseong includes:

you and your Polaroid camera against the world

he would gather information about the places you would visit beforehand

to the point that you wonder whether he's a tourist or a tour guide or even one of the locals lmao

you might both learn a few useful phrases in that foreign language that is spoken in that specific country <3

you'd better have strong legs and great stamina because you will be out roaming around all day

from morning to dusk

well you have your days when you stay in your hotel room because you were wilding the night before 😉

zoo, park, hill, library, bookstore

also you would go watch a theater play

a musical too

anything that can be food for your soul and

that will inspire the artistic side of Inseong

he might have bought a diary where he would write about your adventures during the day and his thoughts, etc.

in short, Inseong writer mode on

he will start a conversation with the locals

especially the grandmothers

needless to mention they all fall for him

I mean, who would not like him <3

they will look at you with those doe eyes 🥺

will write the date and the place

might include some notes

you know, that would be a special gift for the future generations ;))

it's something special for the two of you

it makes your bond stronger

you get to know each other better

he falls in love deeper and deeper in you

if that's even possible

but so do you

traveling with Inseong is a wholesome adventure

it might be a bit messy sometimes

but what's most important is that you eternally love and cherish each other

and that you're happy to go through that adventure called life together 💜

HUSBAND SF9 A⇴Z HEADCANON ⇴ Kim Inseong

A ⇴ AFFECTION

He simply loves to be around you, Inseong will be right by your side pretty much whenever the two of you are together, usually with his arm around your waist too to make sure that you can’t get away from him too quickly.

B ⇴ BOYS

The boys loved being around you pretty much straight from the off as you quickly joked around with them. You weren’t afraid to embarrass yourself with them, especially with Inseong by your side, which meant that they quickly warmed to you and happily embarrassed themselves in front of you at the same time.

C ⇴ COMFORT

Whenever you’re upset, Inseong will try his best to help you smile as quickly as possible. He’s the perfect person to be around when you want cheering up, although he’ll let you have your moment when you just need to cry, as soon as that’s done, he’ll be trying to tell a joke in order to see you smiling again.

D ⇴ DOMESTICATED

The two of you were a very domesticated couple, Inseong made sure to pull his weight around the house and take good care of you. If there was a drop that you were having trouble with, or sometimes didn’t even want to do, then Inseong would do it, more than happy to make life easier for you. He loved being able to do the jobs you didn’t want to do, mainly because it meant that he’d end up in your good books.

E ⇴ ENGAGEMENT

There was very little lowkey about your engagement, Inseong pulled out all of the stops to make sure that everything was perfect. Although the moment was just between the two of you, that didn’t stop him from making everything grand and special. The most important thing to him was that he impressed you, making sure that your engagement was a moment that you absolutely would never forget.

F ⇴ FAVOURITE THING

Inseong’s favourite thing about being with you was how much fun he had whenever he was around you. You just seemed to know the way to make him smile, constantly joking around with him and leaving him in fits of giggles. The two of you loved messing around, it was very rare for the two of you to be find without smiles on your face, which meant the two of you were an infectious couple for all of your friends too.

G ⇴ GOING OUT

If the two of you get invited out, it’s very rare for you to decline an invite to head out with the boys or your friends. Together, you’re often the life and soul of the party in your friendship group and so you find yourselves receiving invites to just about every social occasion that your friends organise to get together.

H ⇴ HONEYMOON

Adventuring was by far the most important thing for the two of you when it came to your honeymoon. Neither of you had it in you to just sit around a pool for a week, instead you wanted to go somewhere where there would be plenty of things to do to keep yourselves nice and occupied throughout.

I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU”

Telling you that he loves you is one of the few things that makes Inseong quite shy, he often gets nervous saying it to you. Being open with you isn’t always something that he’s good at, and so he often says it just in passing so that no big deal can be made about it, and so that you can’t tease him about how embarrassed he is too.

J ⇴ JEALOUSY

For Inseong to get jealous is quite a rare occasion, he’s pretty confident anyway, but he’s especially confident when it comes down to being with you. There were times when Inseong would get nervous about the people who were around you, but he never got jealous of them. He trusted you and knew that you were only ever polite in humouring other people, before always returning back to Inseong’s side too.

K ⇴ KIDS

There was nothing that you were more confident about than the fact that Inseong was going to be an incredible dad. His sense of humour and caring nature were two of the things that drew you to him, but more so when you began to settle down and think about the qualities that you’d want your children’s dad to have too.

L ⇴ LAZY DAYS

Most of the time when the two of you had lazy days you spent it with your families, as your days off were usually the only chance that you got to spend proper time with them. If you had family abroad, you’d make time to call them and have a proper catchup, but for your family in Korea, you’d drive down early in the morning and visit them and make sure to spend a proper day with them and spoil them rotten too.

M ⇴ MORNINGS

With the two of you both being quite big foodies, you usually find yourselves making sure that you eat breakfast together, laying out quite the spread if you’ve got time. After, you’ll make your lunches together, ensuring that the other takes enough to work so that they don’t get hungry whilst busy throughout the day.

N ⇴ NIGHTS

The two of you were glued to each other’s sides at night, you loved to just spend the time catching up with each other on how your days had been, not caring what either of you were doing, as long as you were together.

O ⇴ OBSESSION

Inseong was obsessed with your smile, he loved to see you cheery and feeling happy. The moment that he couldn’t see your smile, Inseong would be around you and trying to turn the corners of your mouth up again.

P ⇴ PRECIOUS MOMENTS

Seeing you with his family was by far one of the times that meant the most to Inseong. He never expected you to get on so well with his family and seeing how accepting they were of you too meant a huge deal to Inseong, their approval for a partner was something that he always wanted to receive.

Q ⇴ QUESTIONS

If it seemed like something was on your mind, Inseong wouldn’t be afraid to ask you what was going on. The last thing that he ever wanted to see you do was bottle things up and build a wall around yourself.

R ⇴ RANDOM FACTS

As a part of your wedding gift, Inseong’s parents bought the two of you several personalised items for around your house in order to make sure that you remembered your wedding. They spoilt you guys rotten, making sure that you had plenty of keepsakes to be able to make sure that your wedding stayed with you.

S ⇴ SILENCE

To get silence around Inseong was a pretty rare chance, he loved to chatter with you, sometimes about absolute nonsense too. If something came to mind, he couldn’t help but share it with you, often having to remind himself to be quiet when he knew that you were busy working across the room.

T ⇴ TIPS & TRICKS

Inseong’s biggest tip for making your marriage work was having fun. As long as the two of you were enjoying yourselves around one another then it seemed like everything else would just fall into place for you both.

U ⇴ UPSET

Getting you to smile was easily the most important thing to Inseong whenever he saw that you were upset, it was his biggest priority.

V ⇴ VISITS

The two of you definitely made more time for your families after you got married. Your relationship felt more serious, and so with that you decided to strengthen the relationships that you had with your families too.

W ⇴ WISH LIST

There was nothing more that Inseong really wished for, finding you was already the last piece of the puzzle that Inseong needed.

X ⇴ XXXX

He loved to tease you when he kissed you, it was often a game for Inseong to try and push you as far as he could until you grabbed him and pulled him back to you, refusing to let him leave you wanting more from him.

Y ⇴ YOU

You were his best friend, the two of you were an incredibly close team.

Z ⇴ ZZZ

Most nights the two of you fell asleep together, if one of you put your phone away, the other would, or if one of you seemed like you were falling silent because you were sleepy, the other would quieten down too.

SF9 touching themselves for you

Pairing: SF9 x gn reader

genre: smut

Bonus song rec: Swim Good, by Hui and Somin

AN: Honestly, I know there are a lot of typos in this piece. I'm sorry

Youngbin:

Youngbin started feeling himself through his pants as well as his t-shirt, lifting the fabric very slightly on purpose to flash his low stomach. "Are you sure you gonna stay away?" He asked but you knew how much fun he was having just from exchanging lustful looks with you, he loved the way you eyed him up that night. The chair you are comfortably set on is like your throne. "I'm more interested in seeing what you can do for me, love"

"As you prefer" he replied with humor, before holding the hem of his shirt between his teeth. Such a clever move had you on the verge of lifting your arm to touch his toned abdomen. You tightened your fist on the arm of the chair instead.

He chuckled to your surprise. His smart eyes were on your reluctant hands as he untied the string of his sweatpants so he could snake one hand inside it. Your boyfriend started to stimulate himself like that, clearly intent on drawing a reaction from you, which in fact happened. "Come on! It's not fair"

"No worries, princess/prince" he pacified you, then lowered his bottoms until they simply dropped down his legs. "You won't miss a thing" His erect member excitedly pointed in your direction.

Inseong:

You probably had the most relaxing shower of your life that night. You and your boyfriend had a special day together to celebrate one more milestone of your relationship. You slipped yourself inside a white bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom with a smile pasted on your face

Inseong was sitting on the bed with a bathrobe identical to yours as well as a smile. A type of grin you knew way too well to be fooled. You stopped dramatically, arms akimbo like in a silent interrogatory. He straightened his back and with fire in his eyes and a move of his hands, he revealed his bare body for you, earlier enveloped in the fluffy fabric. "This is gonna be a great night"

"yeah" you stepped forward but he stopped you. "You won't touch me until I say so" his fingers teased the sensitive skin of his low stomach and you swore that his still soft cock responded with a tiny twitch.

"Seong, what do you mean?" you heard your own voice sound weak, uncertain. Now the man was kneading his own balls. "Don't worry, you can sit close" he indicated the space by his side with a head move. You kept there almost drooling on the sheets as he moaned your name without allowing you to touch him.

Jaeyoon:

You and Jaeyoon were both sprawled on the bed. You just knew you would not be able to stand after you rode him as if there were no tomorrow. Anyways you never regretted your enthusiasm in bed, even when your body was completely drained.

"Y/N?" the man called, not sure whether you were awake since he had not heard your voice after you both orgasmed.

"Yes, love" you lifted your heavy arms and placed your hand on his stomach.

"Do you mind if I just... cum one more time before cleaning you?" You could not restrain a low chuckle at the sight of his fingers enveloping his shaft" You're such a horny dog, but I'd love to watch it." He moved lazily to snuggle onto you and give you a sloppy kiss. when he let go of you, his fist was already moving up and down his length. He made sure to showcase it pretty well for you. Your palm rested warmly on his abdomen, feeling the tension of his muscles grow. "Fuck, Jae, what are you doing to me?"

Dawon:

Once you all stepped inside home, you held his head and whispered in his ear "what did we accord earlier, again?"

In the restaurant, a few hours ago you came close to his ear and threatened to dom him hard if he kept teasing you in public. The fact that he did not stop made you plot against him while your friends talked about the food.

Now you started kissing him against the door. Your skilled hands worked on his belt as he did not mind it at all. In a few seconds, his cock was being pulled out drawing breathless moans from him. You broke the kiss and guided him to hold his own member "put a show for me, Dawonie. You'll fuck me good if it comes out good enough"

He fell on his knees looking up to you, the pants stuck on his hips. Your mouth hung open just from seeing him pump his hard dick. "Am I doing right, love?" He asked without stopping the steady moves. His eyes going wide for you. "Yes, baby. I'm loving it"

Zuho:

@jasminexox this idea was based on one of your asks.

You haven't told him you were coming but according to his friends, Ju had been overworking on his studio once more. They thought seeing you could be good for his mood. Then there was you entering his space without any warning. "Sugar, I brought you food!"

Juho's eyes met yours and a discharge of panic jumped from his gaze. He had his dick in hand and his shorts pooled on his feet. "Hello, babe. I'm really sorry". He did not try and hide what was obvious but his embarrassment did show.

"Well" you stutter "actually I am sorry" you act brave and fully entered the room to lean on his desk in front of him and put a timid smile on your lips.

"You know, it helps at relaxing" he explained looking down at his lap. "Do you wanna watch as I.. relax?" Your soft nod got him resuming his activity. You noticed a bit of precum escaping from his slit and lubricating his member, your lips suddenly felt so dry. His head fell backward and your name sounded like music in his deep moans.

Rowoon:

Special thanks to @yootaesowl for discussing this with me

Seokwoo did not sound embarrassed at all when he was needy and horny on the cellphone a few days ago. If you closed your eyes you could lucidly hear him narrating the way his cock was growing hard in his hold while he lied on his hotel bed.

Now that you were together he was unsure. You were sitting in between his legs, facing him with a pleading face. It took a bit to get him to free his dick from the boxers but it was half erect and starting to leak. "Doesn't it feel nice?" you ask with a filthy smile.

"Way too good, to be honest" he admits with a low tone. With one hand he nervously let his fingers fondle his own thigh, the other hand timidly played with his member. You leaned in to connect your lips, the way you propped on him was to take your chance to reassure him with soft touches on his right thigh. Your kiss stifled his soft moans.

You kept controlling the kiss while he controlled the pleasure he got from his hands. The way the friction could be heard got you almost devouring his lips. The hungriness with which your tongue touched his and he chased his high culminated in a spurt of seed on his stomach, and both of you facing each other in awe.

Yoo Taeyang:

Taeyang finished brushing his teeth before you, thus he announced he was showering first. "You may join me when you're done, by the way" he invited getting rid of his shirt. You earned a provoking wink once you turned to look at him.

In no time he is stepping inside the shower closure, which was completely transparent. You definitely loved the bathrooms in that hotel. they had that fancy style that made you all crave sex literally all the time.

"I'm not sure..." you made it sound as if you were talking to yourself, however, it was loud enough for Taeyang to hear through the water noise. "About??" he asked, back facing you. Your eyes could not leave the peach his butt was. "I guess I'm gonna stay here and watch you"

He took some time to respond. You thought he had not heard you but then he turn around and replied "What a perv!" You laughed loudly throwing your head back. When you looked at him again, your sight was taken over by the way he held his dick. He did not say anything but you knew that it was a silent "yes, I'm putting on a show for you". And so he did, pumping that pretty cock, spreading foam all over his chest. From what you know, his nipples probably felt really sensitive. The glass was getting blurred, so you slid the door open even if you were wetting the whole place.

Hwiyoung:

You could not hide your frustration, it is not going the way wanted at all. Since Hwiyoung kept saying no, you added a slightly sad look to your demeanor.

"Maybe I can try. I can't assure you it will be sexy though" he changed his mind, explaining as his hands mindlessly rubbed his thick thighs. You knew he was aroused even though doing something so private in front of you made him nervous.

"I just know you'll look hot as hell". The way he was manspreading drove you crazy alone. It was an aperitif for the whole meal.

Youngkuyun tugged his t-shirt off in one go, then got rid of his bottoms too before standing in front of you. Sitting on the edge of the mattress, It would be the perfect angle to take his dick in your mouth if you all did not have nastier plans. Instead, he stroked himself right there, gentle with his own organ, taking his time. Until he felt the urge to speed up as you licked your lips numerous times, sometimes locking eyes with him, sometimes unashamedly admiring his body. You held him by the hips, drawing delicious shivers from his skin. His erect member was being harshly pumped centimeters from your chest. You could picture the mess he would make.

Chani:

Your boyfriend still had that frustrated look. The way he furiously scrolled down the Twitter page worried you. "Chani, I'm so sorry". You said for what felt like the millionth time.

"I'm not mad at you, babe" he repeated, laying the cellphone on the couch and looking into your eyes. He was being sincere, yet he seemed angry at something and that was eating you up. "I'm mad at myself for not locking the room. I'm also embarrassed, to be honest"

You tilted your head and mocked him "love, you're acting as if I hadn't ever seen your dick before". It did not fail to get a little chuckle in response. "You shouldn't have stopped when I entered"

"I can resume it from where I stopped if you want me to" he was joking but you were not so you simply nodded with interest sparkling on your face.

At first, you beheld a surprised expression on his face but in a second you saw him shaking his head and calling you dirty as he unbuttoned his shorts again. You watched him take it off quickly, then lay back on the sofa, hips dragged to the edge of it. You never noticed how beautifully he held his member. He seemed so confident about what he was doing to you, staring at your eyes until you lift your gaze to his own, then he looked down. he stroked that cock as if he was professional.

The Night Before Enlistment ~ Kim Inseong

“Can you still not get yourself off to sleep?”

As Inseong’s head tilted down to look across at you, you could tell straight away that sleep had avoided him. His mind was busy, filled with apprehension and nerves, the fear of the unknown and what was coming his way beginning to creep in.

The feeling of a hand cupping the side of his face drew Inseong out of the daydream that he was in, nodding his head at last in response to you. He seemed exhausted, but his mind was active, stubbornly refusing to switch off for him.

“I can’t close my eyes without thinking about things,” Inseong whispered, shifting onto his side to be able to face you properly. “The thought of leaving so much behind tomorrow doesn’t quite feel real yet, it’s not sunk in yet.”

You smiled weakly, understanding exactly how Inseong was feeling, “we knew this day would come, it’s just come a lot sooner than either of us could have probably imagined it would.”

You’d been made aware of the need for Inseong to enlist for a while, closing yourself off from it. Neither of you really enjoyed talking about what would happen, you thought if you forgot about it, it would go away, but now it had finally crept back up on you.

“Even just laying here I’m struggling to believe that this could be my last night in my own bed for eighteen months or so,” Inseong continued, pulling the duvet further up around his frame.

“You’ll get some holiday from time to time,” you tried your best to encourage, trying to pick Inseong’s mood up as best as you could, “you can come back home then, right?”

“I can,” Inseong murmured, still filled with fright. Not only was he struggling to believe that he was leaving his bed, but picturing you being the only in the bed too didn’t sit right for Inseong, it was a place for the two of you, not just one of you.

As Inseong fell silent quickly, you could tell that he was silently beginning to worry again. “I’m sure that these months will fly by you know,” you smiled, pressing a little closer into Inseong’s cheek to draw his attention back across to you.

“I don’t think I can sleep tonight,” he then whispered in reply to you, “I don’t even know how I’m going to sleep whilst I’m in the military, I can’t even remember the last time that I fell asleep without you right by my side there with me.”

With time you knew that Inseong would settle, get comfortable, make friends, and find his feet too. It was going to take time for him to adapt, get used to new surroundings, new people, but you had every confidence that he could do it.

As he met your eyes, Inseong smiled weakly, “we’ve never spent more than a couple of weeks apart, and now we could be looking at a month or two at least.”

As much as you tried to keep the smile on your face, you were terrified too. Luckily for you, you had the rest of the group around you still, but they could never make up for having Inseong around you, no matter how hard they tried to be there.

“We’ll get there,” you whispered, unable to quite find it in you to say anything else as you tried your best to keep composed, “we’ve always got through everything, right?”

Inseong’s head nodded in agreement with you, “it’s the not knowing when I’ll next see you again that scares me, I feel fine about walking through the barracks tomorrow, I’m a people person after all, but my favourite person won’t be there.”

“I’m coming to see you off,” you reminded him, bringing your other hand up to Inseong’s face too, “and the boys all said that they’d come too.”

Knowing how terrified Inseong was, the boys all made sure that their schedules were clear to see Inseong off with you. Not only were they going for him, but they were also going for you too, making sure they could support you as you said your goodbyes.

“They’re under strict instructions to look after you,” Inseong promised you with a light chuckle, reminding himself of the serious lecture that he had given them all on his last visit to the studio. “Even if you want them at four in the morning, you call.”

“I’ll be alright,” you laughed, shaking your head at how organised Inseong was when it came to you, “the poor boys don’t need to be worrying about me with you not around.”

Inseong quickly shushed you as you spoke, not letting you dismiss the boys. “They’ve been given no choice, if I come home next year and find anything different, then I’m blaming them,” he joked, trying his best to keep his humour despite the overwhelming nerves that he felt about what was coming his way.

“I know you’re worried about me, but I can take of myself,” you assured him, “and I’ll make sure that I show you that as often as possible too.”

Inseong nodded at your vow, “I want you to text me every single day, even if I can’t reply so that I know you’re taking care of yourself and healthy.”

It was a promise that you had already made several times to Inseong in the build up to his enlistment. “Most of all I promise that I won’t sleep on your side of the bed, I know how much you love how your body moulds into the mattress as it is.”

He smiled appreciatively back across to you, “I’ve left a pile of my hoodies in the wardrobe so that you can snuggle up to them instead of rolling onto my side of the bed.”

“And I’ve ordered a new bottle of my perfume to ship to you once you’ve done your induction so that you can keep it with you too,” you reminded him, sniggering softly as the corners of Inseong’s mouth turned up into a smile.

“I bet the other members of the band judge me,” he laughed, “but they’ll just be jealous that their partners don’t send them anything.”

Slowly, you noticed Inseong’s mood picking up as you reminded him of the things that he had to look forward to, even if you were going to be far away.

“Just think of all the fun we can have once enlistment is over,” you suggested, “we won’t have to make plans anymore wondering whether we’ll get to do it before you enlist.”

“When I discharge, we’re clearing off our bucket lists,” Inseong laughed in reply.

“We’ll have the rest of our lives to do those things.”

“My discharge bucket list currently consists of laying in bed with you and never letting go,” Inseong informed you, feeling his heart soften as he tried to picture how that time would be, even if it was several months away. “I can’t wait for that time to come around.”

“I bet that it will be much sooner than you think.”

“I don’t want things to change whilst I’m gone,” he whispered, “I want to make sure that I come out to you, and the group, and all of our fans too.”

Your head nodded back to him, “your fans will wait and so will the boys. As for me, I’ll be straight to those gates on the day that you discharge.”

“I can’t wait for that day to come.”

Kim Inseong x gender ambiguous reader

genre: fluff, a sprinkle of angst, nerd!Inseong, office friends to lovers, slow burn

warnings: discussions of food and alcohol, inseong is a bit intoxicated

word count: 2,4k

You prepared yourself to wrap your coat more tightly around you when you left the bar, but after the weekend, the cold had thawed to an agreeable temperature that allowed you to walk with your coat open, as long as you were wearing a woolen sweater, scarf and hat to bar against the last dry chill. 

“We’re sharing a taxi home, Y/N, are you joining?” Lua asked as she, too, stepped out of the bar. She had been the one to invite you and Minyoung for drinks and bar snacks, which you discovered was partially because she wanted to brainstorm ideas for her and Lucy’s first couple trip together. Minyoung and you had only been helpful in the beginning. Your trip suggestions went from nearby spas and beach towns to a weekend away with the parents, the Bahamas, and jungle survival. 

At that point Lua had made the executive decision that none of you were drinking anymore and that it was just tea and bar snacks from now on to sober up, leading you to share more about how you were doing beyond the daily texts in your group chat. Lua confessed that her residency burdened her emotionally so much at times, that it made her reconsider her lifelong dream to become a pediatrician. You could empathize with her, working on issues that you but nobody else in your corporate workplace found worthwhile. Minyoung told you that the explosive story she had been working on for ages had suddenly been paused by her editor-in-chief without clear explanation. Although you couldn’t really help each other out, the hugs, curses and you can do its were comforting in itself. Now leaving the bar together, perhaps slightly later than you had intended on a Thursday night, you felt a warm trust in your friends and yourself.

“No thanks, I think I’ll walk home.” You wanted to savor the crisp feeling this night brought you some more.

Lua’s eyes shone with concern. “Okay… but text us as soon as you get home, okay? And really when you are at home, door closed and locked.”

“Okay I will, mom,” And you gave her a big hug, which Minyoung joined as well.

“She’ll be fine, it’s only a 20 minute walk back - if her employer found out she took a taxi home, I’m not sure if she’ll be allowed to stay on at Corporate Responsibility.” She winked and squeezed your shoulder a bit. “Text us, okay?” With that promise, you wished them good night. You walked through the animated street dimmed by the yellow streetlights, patrons also leaving or sometimes entering bars. You glanced at the store windows while walking past, knowing the route like the back of your hand. Waiting at a traffic light to cross the intersection of a busy street that would bring you into your residential neighborhood, you took out your phone to check your messages.

The most recent one was Lua’s, thanking you for the fun night and asking you to share your location, so you did and answered sassily she should focus on finding a location for her trip with Lucy. But then, above a message from your real mom asking you whether you wanted to come for dinner this weekend, were five notifications from Inseong. All were sent within the hour.

“Y/N!” with a cute sticker of a cat peeking around a door.

A video file, with the message: “Guess who’s also an ONCE?” Then your name again, dragged out cutesily. 

“Y/N, are you already asleep??”

Your stomach flipped, and felt your fingers tingling again. When you had seen Inseong with Yuna at lunch again after your surprise meeting last week, it had been as usual, an instant, natural familiarity between the three of you. Inseong made you laugh with his D&D adventures with his friends the night before (the dragon he had promised to the party had been a newborn, now the party’s pet) and you had facetiously scolded him to bring a sweater next time he’d step out in the cold to say goodbye. 

At the same time, you had found a bit of repose in his week-long work trip. During an intense cleaning session over the weekend, you had resolutely told yourself that you were reading into the situation too much. Inseong had always been shy and a bit awkward in social situations, with others too. So why were you so vehemently scrubbing your bathroom floor as if trying to also wash away your thoughts about him?

Receiving these texts, then, so informal, and not related to work, brought you back to needing to contain the state of turmoil in the pit of your stomach that the closer interactions between you had induced. You had never contacted each other outside of work before.

Still, you couldn’t resist and tapped to play the video. Your face stretched into a smile instantly. The video showed Inseong’s manager, the usually stern-looking but now positively giddy Manager Im, tambourine in one hand, mike in the other, singing and dancing to Twice’s TT under the karaoke room’s disco lights. Inseong’s bright laugh was heard the loudest over the rest of the co-workers cheering him on - you inadvertently grinned as well. As you heard him sing along in his clear voice with Manager Im, “Tell me that you be my ba~by,” you felt a blush crawl over your cheeks.

“Finally someone I can take to a Twice concert with me,” You texted back. You looked up, noticing that you had just missed the traffic light turning green. You felt like you had to send something back in exchange and in the end decided on a picture of the moon shining behind the high rise apartment buildings on the other side of the intersection. It wasn’t a fair trade, but it had to do. “I’m on my way home!” You added.

The light turned green. By the time you had crossed the street, entering your neighborhood, you had already received a reply from Inseong. “Are you walking home?”

And, almost immediately after, “Do you maybe want to call for a bit?”

You tried to ignore the fluttering spreading from your belly all the way to the tips of your fingers when you wrote back a casual, “Sure.” Maybe he just wanted to ask something about work.

When you right away received the call from Inseong, you took it without trying to think anymore: “Inseong, hey!” It was an attempt to sound cheerful, breezy and you hoped he couldn’t hear the slight unsteadiness when you said his name. 

“Hey Y/N - is it alright to call?” Inseong’s voice sounded lower and more laid-back than you were used to. 

“Yes, it’s fine! I’m just walking home from dinner with friends.”

“Oh, with your friends I’ve met before - Lucy, Lua, Minyoung? How are they doing?” “Just with Lua and Minyoung,” you said, the tingling you were feeling now enveloped by a warmth that lay the attentiveness of his words. “They’re doing alright. Lua wants to take Lucy on a weekend getaway, so she asked us for help. It’s their first holiday as a couple and Lua is such a perfectionist she wants to plan everything to a T.”

“I think if you are with someone you really like, it doesn’t really matter what you’re doing,” 

Inseong said, as though he was thinking out loud..

You smiled at his thoughtful response. “That’s what I said as soon as she asked us!” 

Talking about the rest of your evening, you neared your small apartment complex. You confessed some of the doubts around your career that you had shared earlier with your friends, pressing the elevator button up. Inseong didn’t really say much, but hummed in understanding and you found comfort in just knowing that he was listening in support and without judgment. 

“...So even though it wasn’t planned, working here, I am still learning a lot and I think I should also appreciate that I am working with really helpful team members who give me a lot of freedom to experiment. I guess that’s not always a given,” You mused, struggling to keep your phone to your face while taking off your coat and your shoes in your narrow hallway, having just closed the door behind you. “I guess I’ll just stay on for a little while more.” 

You paused, flopping down on your small couch, legs dangling down the arm rest. “Sorry, I’ve been talking a lot, right?”

“No - it’s just really nice hearing your voice.” He said it so casually, so different from what you were used to from him and so contrasting with how much these words made you feel. You did not really know how to respond. “S-so how is it going over there? It must be tiring.”

“It is a little bit, talking to so many people all the time and having to listen to presentations on digitalization law for most of the days - even for me,” he added playfully, and you let out a short giggle. “They’re really touching on every topic. Yesterday, for example, a representative of a large legal firm gave a presentation on how to go around privacy laws for data mining.”

You gasped in shock. “What? At a big conference like that? That is shameless and terrible!” 

You heard Inseong chuckle in a deep tone that languidly echoed in the rest of your body. “I thought you would say that.”

Resorting to your strategy of asking questions when you felt too tongue-tied to respond, you moved on: “And your team’s presentation?” Inseong started to speak a little faster now, voice still deep, words slightly slurred. “Manager Im was supposed to be presenting with Team Leader Lim, since she’s more knowledgeable on the digitalization side of things, but her son got sick suddenly, so she wasn’t able to come over. Instead, they asked me to do it with him kind of at the last minute. Yeah, I was intimidated too, in the beginning,” he probably responded to the sound of surprise you made, knowing that that must’ve been a big step for him. “But it went really well. It kind of felt like our presentation when we were trainees at Digitalization, remember? Although Manager Im wasn’t as cute as my presentation partner back then…” You touched your cheeks, feeling them heat up at this again unexpected flirtatious note by him, and were happy that you were alone in your dark apartment.. “...So to reward the team, Manager Im bought us dinner and drinks, and we went for karaoke to celebrate too,” Inseong finished nonchalantly. 

You regained your composure somewhat and wittily remarked, “Ah, I thought you had been drinking.”

This seemed to throw Inseong off a bit. For the first time in the conversation, some embarrassment rang through the low chuckle in response to your remark. A sound that was a confusing mix of cute and hot at the same time. “Yeah, I did,” he confessed. “I usually don’t drink in work situations but it helped me calm down a bit after work today and loosen up a bit. Even though it often gives me misplaced confidence to do things I usually wouldn’t…”

And say things you usually wouldn’t too? you wanted to ask him. Again realizing that you were laying on your couch in your unlit apartment in the middle of the night, phone pressed against your ear to hear every breath in your conversation with your coworker, work friend, no, work crush.

“...I often end up embarrassing myself. I didn’t send you the video where Manager Im and I sing Feel Special together.” Inseong chuckled again bashfully.

“I can’t believe you kept that from me,” You feigned offense, but you knew your voice sounded weaker than usual as well. “I just hope that you don’t have to survive another day tomorrow with a hangover now too.”

You could hear the smile in Inseong’s voice when he responded. “It’s only the closing of the conference tomorrow so I’ll be fine. We actually have some free time tomorrow before the flight, so I was thinking about what to do.” He was thinking out loud in a low, soft voice now, and you guessed the slight slurring of his speech could not only be attributed to his drinking, but his drowsiness as well. “There’s an art museum nearby, when I heard about it I was sure you would love it. Ah, it’s so nice to talk to you again, wouldn’t it be even better if you were here and we could visit it together?” 

As his words rang through your ears one by one, you were left breathless, as if there was no space for anything else but that suggestion and everything it would hold.

“That- that would be nice.” The voice you spoke with was so thin, so faint, that the silence that followed seemed to swallow your response whole.

“Y/N, are you still there?” Inseong said gently, drowsily, and you imagined him rubbing his eyes behind his glasses, crooked on his face, his bow-like lips pursed, and you felt a tender smile blossoming on your face, only growing in the sunlight of his sluggish yet genuine ramblings: “Do you have a busy day tomorrow? You must be so tired, you must’ve had such a long day and here I am, egotistically keeping you up just because I wanted to talk to you...” “Oh, it’s fine Inseong, I do have an early meeting but nothing important, just catching up with my team.”

“No, you should really go to sleep then - oh, it was so nice to hear your voice - you should really hang up and go to bed…” A yawn broke off the final part of his sentence. “I think you’re the one who should be going to sleep Inseong,” You teased him gently.

“Yeah, maybe, but I don’t want to hang up,” You could hear the sleepy pout in his response. 

“Then I will. It was nice to talk to you, Inseong. Good night, and good luck on the final day. Have a safe trip back home.” “Sleep well, Y/N, thanks so much…” A yawn followed again, but muffled. You pictured him, eyes close, cheek leaning against his phone on a crisp hotel pillow.

“You too.” You waited a very brief moment, but it didn’t seem like Inseong would hang up, so you did, leaving you by yourself to process this conversation and the feelings it had invoked. 

The rest of the night, it was as though you had to experience every emotion one by one again, whirling through your head seamlessly yet unexpectedly from one to the other, leaving no space for dreams, nightmares or emptiness, but only what the two of you said and everything it could have meant.

A/N: we’re nearing the end! thanks for sticking to this story! Also this chapter was inspired by a bubble concept inseong did last year lol

Reading a book together and he pauses to look at you for a moment before smiling as he admires you, admires how focused you are, he didn’t even realize he was smiling softly until you look up at him and ask him why he’s smiling, to which he answers; “at you… my beautiful,”

your cheeks blush and laugh at his words; you don't know what to say, you never do; sometimes you wonder whether he means it or not, whether what you have is real or a chimera.; but by the way he looks at you and by the subtle ways he takes care of you (he doesn't know if you notice but you do, you always do), you know it's real; you know you can trust him and be yourself.

he finds you cute, he always does even when you're grumpy and stubborn and refuse to talk to him; he attacks you with kisses, it's ticklish, your laughter fills in the room; you look at his eyes, everything fall silent and you feel as if time has stopped; your fingers tenderly caress his face, a satisfying sigh leaves his lips; maybe reading can wait for a little bit

THE STEALER - CHAPTER 3

THE STEALER - CHAPTER 3 It’s been months since that expulsion of several students had happened and it’s also since then the rumor had risen and almost everyone had given her the nickname "the Highestness” from Highest + Greatness - because of the influence she can have on the school boards.

Most of the students fear her and as much as possible avoid her or be careful with her which made her more of the school’s loner yet the students were really curious as what is her relationship with their school’s famous band, New Flying or N.Flying who keeps on approaching her and even goes in and out with her to school which made the students wonder their relations, especially the leader who titled to be the "Cold Prince".

"Hey! Have you heard of it?" the nasal voice guy asked in his usual playful tone,

"Heard what?" The honey voice asked as he took a bit from his food,

"Her, Jaeyeon" his eyes caught at her as she was in the line by the cashier as he also starts eating his food,

"About what exactly?" one of the younger lines asked curiously,

"What the students call her and the rumors circulating..." the student council president buts in,

"Rumor?" "What rumor?" the group leader asked,

Coming closer as he whispered "that she's dating N.Flying Leader" he whispered with one hand covering the side of his lips,

"N.Flying?" "Our School’s band?" "The leader?" The honey voice asked in surprise,

"Yup!" the nasal-voiced guy with a pulp lip replied in confidence.

"Ay! No way!!..." The honey-voiced guy replied in disbelief,

"Then explain that!" the nasal guys said as he hiddenly pinpoint with his eyes and heads the topic person two tables behind him,

Some of the brothers looked at the topic person as if it was nothing, some had their ways while some didn’t bother to look,

Meanwhile on the other table, “you do know people gossiping about us, right?” N.Flying Leader said in his low voice, she simply nodded, and replied with a simple, "Yeah, I do" in a very careless manner, continuously eating her meal.

"Listen, I like the fact we got to spend more time together and all but aren't you worried?" He asked in his concern and low voice.

“I don’t care to be honest…” she replied as she continued to eat,

“Don’t care? You do know you got hurt and bullied because of this right?” he asked back very concerned, while the rest of his members nodded in strong agreement, she didn’t reply and just looked at him as she continue eating, “just continue eating, Oppa!” she told him. After she ate, she went to the rooftop as she has spare time to spend idling.

But when she got there 9 handsome boys were already there hanging out and messing around, but she still proceeds, the boys noticed the moment she opened the door and continued their activities as if they don’t mind but one or two of the boys can’t stand and pretend not to care no more,

“Hi!” the tall 6ft honey-voiced guy said standing inches away from her, she looked behind her and saw both of the familiar faces, “hi!” She replied as the wind starts to blow, trying to recall their names, “Jaeyoon and Dawon, right?” she called them out. The boys were surprised and looked at each other’s faces. “You guys from my class, right?” she added.

“You remembered our names?” Dawon commented,

“Well, of course... we met previously, beside Jaeyoon sat beside me, and you sat across us by the front door…” she replied, “besides you and your brother, I presumed, are already popular so not remembering you and your brothers would I think to be more of a terrible sin as a student here and a person….” she said as she popped a small smile but it wants very visible as a gauze on her lips blocks it, she looked at the other boys looking at them pretending to mind their business,

Dawon just giggled while Jaeyoon offered extra strawberry milk to her, she looked at him, “it's extra, we come on an odd number" pointing out his brothers at the back with another plastic bottle of strawberry milk was on his hand, "do you want one?” he offered, Jaeyeon hesitantly as first but still took it and smiled at them for the first time which somehow made Jaeyoon’s heartthrob a beat and unintentionally stared at her, she noticed Jaeyoon’s staring and asked him in curiosity, “is there something wrong?” “Was there something on me?” she added, concerned, as she places her right hand on her face, trying to wipe whatever was on it,

“Ah, no!” he said, snapping out, “I was just thinking about the book report, if you don’t have a partner or group yet maybe you can join us” he made a quick excuse, standing beside her,

Jaeyeon just stared back at him in surprise, “I mean our teacher said it should come in three, and Dawon and I are missing a person…” he explained,

“True!” Dawon exclaimed as he placed his arm on his brother’s shoulder, “we would love you on board!” he added, showing his bright smile,

“Really? You guys wouldn’t mind me being in your group?” she asked with a sad tone on it,

“why? What’s wrong with you?” Dawon asked,

“um..” she hesitantly said, “a wounded loner,” she asked as she chuckled a bit,

Both Jaeyoon and Dawon looked at each other for a moment, Dawon approach her to her other side, “Hey! You! are not a loner! And those stupid asses are the one on fault!” Dawon called them off, pointing into thin air,

“Then I don't mind,” Jaeyeon replied happily.

“Then, let’s have a quick meeting at the family restaurant near our place, it's nice and quiet, fewer people are usually there after school days so we can talk better if that’s alright with you?” Dawon offered, she agreed, and the school bell rang as a sign that lunch was over.

After school, Dawon quickly went to her seat and asked her if she was ready to leave, she smiled at him while Jaeyoon was waiting for them in the doorway, and they left their homeroom together with students staring at her, wondering what is going and when did the members of SF9 and her got close, she can feel she’s getting both weird and intense stares from there fangirls but she ignore it all especially when 9 of the boys are walking with her.

“Please, ignore the stares” Youngbin whispered as most of the boys were walking in front, goofing around, Jaeyeon looked at him and smiled, “you noticed?” she asked, smiling. He nodded still walking beside her, “please, don’t get traumatized with this” he told her,

“What?” she asked,

“The intense and weird stares…” he replied,

“Ah, yeah, but I’m not doing anything wrong…” she replied smiling at him, “plus I don’t think this will be the last attention I will get” she added, Youngbin looked at her in wonder what she meant, she can feel the look youngbin is giving her and she smiled giving of the statement “you’ll find out eventually..” she told him, “by the way, where are going?” she asked, the other boys heard her and stopped in front of a fancy looking bar, “we are here!!!” Dawon exclaimed happily with both of his hands excitedly popped in the air showing the fancy bar named “Glorious Bar” Jaeyeon stopped and was surprised where they were, “a bar!?” she said questioned and exclaimed the place,

“Yup!!!” Dawon happily replied,

Some of the boys started going into the Glorious Bar, Jaeyeon looked around her and lowered her voice, “guys! What are you doing we’re still in high school to going in and we were supposed to do our group project!”

“But we are!” Jaeyoon responded calmly as he waited by the door holding the front door for her, Jaeyeon kept quiet for a while as she stared at her newfound friend,

She took her steps as she goes into the bar, “trust us! I know this place might be unusual but we can make our group project here peacefully no one in our age groups shows up, so no one will disturb us!” Jaeyoon said as he tried to convince her and as she walked in she was surprised at how elegant and fancy looking it is inside the bar, “we usually walked in the back but we can make an exemption today.” he added as he walked behind her, “wait, you guys said we can have a quick meeting on a family restaurant near your place?” she asked looking back at Jaeyoon, Jaeyoon smiled, “well we are here” he said with a clear amused face,

“Family restaurant?” Jaeyeon asked with an eyebrow up, “since when has a bar becomes a family restaurant?” she asked sarcastically,

“Well, that’s my fault I haven’t been clear...” Dawon buts in, “what I meant family-owned business!” he said with a satisfied smile on his face and pouting cutely, Dawon and Jaeyoon sat at a long table in the middle of the room while the others were not to be seen, she was looking around and she was indeed fascinated by the interior of the place,

“Family Business owned!?” she exclaimed, “This is one fancy bar...” she complimented in amazement.

“Yup… we've been in this business for generations..." he clarified.

"Really now!!" She exclaimed in amazement. "Anyways, do you guys, have any ideas on how we could start this project??" She asked, "any ideas or suggestions?" She added as she sat on the chair in front of Jaeyoon,

the boys starting to think for ideas as she amazingly scans the whole room when her eyes landed on a painting on the wall, "is that sorcerers?" she stood up, going to the painting in the center of the bar, both Jaeyoon and Dawon followed her with their eyes, "the Knight of the Rising Suns?" she said out loud which surprised the boys. out of now where, Youngbin grabbed her right shoulder, "how do you know?" he asked in pure curiosity and surprise, "you knew them?" he added, wondering what does this girl know about these 9 boys on the painting, she was surprised by Youngbin taking her off guard, looking back at him, she can't do say anything for a while but look at his surprise and curious expression, "well, yeah! I read the story somewhere before, though I can't remember the whole story..." she told them, "9 boys who were given to find a cure for their curses and the cause of their curses..." she added,

Dawon nodded in agreement, "well, she's not wrong..." he said in amusement

"Where did you read that story from?" Jaeyoon asked in curiosity.

"can't remember where but I knew I read it before in a library I guess..." she replied, unsure.

"Library?" Youngbin asked, "what library?" he questioned.

"Sorry, but I can't remember, it's been a long time and to be honest I can't even remember that day, except some of the stories...." she explained, Youngbin wanted to ask for more details but the tallest among all brother held his shoulder, "Hyung!" he called out, Youngbin let go and excused himself with their younger siblings while Dawon distracts her, "ok, I have an idea for this report..." he told her which was effective, "really what?!" she asked, excitedly.

"How about the Mago Oscuro?" he suggested.

"Mago Oscuro? the fiction character? Mago Oscuro: Story of the Greatest Warrior of the Dark Realms..." Jaeyoon clarify, Dawon nodded in agreement, "well, it's one of the bestselling books of our generation and I feel that Mago Oscuro isn't just a fictional character..." he explained,

"Oh really? then explain, how do you say so?" Jaeyeon asked,

"well, based on the book Mago Oscuro, he used to be an ordinary human that was cursed by witches to seal the darkness and save the humanity from the dark creatures lurking in the human world, with the magical book that he created with his magic and blood it was said that its power can create new magic, seal evil creatures or even create them and based on the book, he even created 6 magical creatures that can hide on the dark realm as spies. but like they said, with great magic comes great responsibility. as his powers grow many evil contenders from both realms, human and magical realms want his magical book and to prevent them from getting it, he destroyed his magical book with the 6 magical creatures he created with his magic to protect his magic and possible even the world and because of what he had done it was never seen or even heard off." Dawon told the story,

"You know what doesn't make sense of that story?" Jaeyeon asked,

"What?" Dawon asked,

"How did he destroy a magical book and him destroy his magical book does that mean he also destroyed his 6 magical creatures?" she questioned, the boys looked at her, wondering what she mean, "I mean, he has a reason why he destroyed it, but, at the beginning of the story the magical book wasn't really a magical book but just a normal book, where he writes his enemies strengths and weakness, the creatures he had an encounter like a journal but later as the story progress, it became a magical book and as far it goes, the magical book also became his source of power as his human form can't take it anymore, meaning destroying the book means he killed his own 6 magical creatures and himself, right? so, what if something from the dark realms returned to the human world who will save us? rather, protect us?" she questioned, "also, I don't think he destroyed it but instead he shattered it into pieces, which he gave to his 6 magical creatures to protect and when the right times came they would rise and gather to protect the human world..." she added. both boys were speechless for a moment and looked at her like she was right, she has a point "wow you seem gave a new meaning to the ending to the story...." Dawon complimented.

"I felt that the story isn't finished..." she replied,

"I feel the same..." he agreed,

"Well, it seems that we have a book report now..." Jaeyoon told both as they nodded in excitement.

"Why don't you both get the idea together as I get out laptop and printer for our report' Jaeyoon offered, both agreed and as they brainstormed,

Inside their study room, "Hyung, what was that?' i thought we are laying low?" the tallest brother questioned his older brother's action a while ago,

"I know, I'm sorry..." Youngbin apologies, " i start feeling weird when she called out our alias" he said, "a weird burning sensation within me..." he explained,

Jaeyoon entered in the middle of a small argument from the brothers, “me too. I felt the same presence from her previously…” Jaeyoon buts in, the brothers look at them in a weird manner as if they were just making nonsense excuse,

“there’s really something about her…” Jaeyoon told everyone as he proceeds in taking the materials, he needed along the book that they agreed to be the topic for there group project. Bring all the needed materials he saw both Dawon and Jaeyeon were having fun, it was a first for him seeing Jaeyeon smiling and laughing her heart out and the reason was Dawon, it somehow made him feel a small pinch within him.

“You both seems got close fast…” Jaeyoon halfhearted complimenting them as he places the materials on the table,

“Well, Jaeyeon isn’t half bad…” Dawon complimented her as he looks at her smiling,

“You’re not so bad yourself, Dawon” she complemented back writing some stuff on the paper. Jaeyoon just looked at both of them when she saw the book, they were talking about above the laptop that Jaeyoon just placed on the table. “Oh! Hey!” she said as she reaches out for the book,

“Well, I saw this while picking up the laptop and printer, might bring it along as we can read and add more on the report…” told her, Jaeyeon nodded and smiled. He quietly observes her as she starts to read, “you guys won’t mind if I borrow this for a while?” she asked, looking both Dawon then to Jaeyoon. Dawon nodded while Jaeyoon paused for a little while staring at her and notice something different about her eyes but kept quit and nodded, “yeah sure!” he replied looking at Dawon then back at her again. Dawon opened the laptop and begun typing away with the report while Jaeyeon quietly read the book, Jaeyoon stood up as he set up the printer and secretly taking peaks at her, silently observing her, remembering the weird burning sensation he felt with meeting her previously and what his older brother just shred a while ago.

“she’s no normal girl…” he thought to himself, “was her eyes color gray?” he added, he twists his head to the left. Dawon saw him getting glimpse of her and kept silent as he also observes his older brother getting weird about Jaeyeon. They ended the project successfully and she was offered to have a meal with them before the bar open up with Taeyang’s cooking and Jaeyoon offered to walk her to the bus stop.

“So, have you guys been running the bar?” she asked looking at him as they walk down the sidewalk.

“Well, yeah…” he replied with both hands on his pocket, “we have our own task...” he added,

“aren’t you guys a little to young to run a bar on your own?” she questioned,

“Um, maybe but, it’s a family business we need to keep it going…” he told her looking at her, “it’s our bread and butter...” he told her, looking at her eyes she saw a weird color again which he couldn’t stop himself to ask, “are you wearing contact lens?”

Jaeyeon stopped and looked at him, “contact lens?” she questioned,

“Sorry but your eyes, they have different color…” he told her stopping as well, concerned,

“You notice huh...” she replied bowing a bit as she smirk, “it look weird huh...” she commended, Jaeyoon was caught off-guard, maybe he should have commented on her eyes he thought as he’s starting to panic and thinking a topic to distract her, “they said it’s because of an accident when I was younger.” she added looking at him with a smile,

“Accident?” he asked, surprised.

“Yeah! I had an accident when I was 10, a car accident, me surviving is a miracle …” she response in a sad tone. Jaeyoon just looked at her in a concerned way as she continues with her story, “to be honest I can’t remember much what happened that night, but my guardians said it took a lot of life from my relatives…” she continues, taking glance at him as they continue walking, “my parents, relatives...” she explained.

“Why?” he asked, curiously.

“My guardians said probably because of stolen heirloom.” She answered with an unsure tone of voice, as they arrive at the bus stop. Silence was in the air he wasn’t sure if it was okey to ask but he asked anyway, “they got it?” Jaeyeon was taken off guard with his question, “what?” he said looking at Jaeyoon surprised.

“Your family’s stolen wealth?” he elaborates.

“Um, to be honest I really don’t know…” she replied raising both of her shoulders, showing she was unsure. “But my brot-” she paused, “...I mean guardians said, they really don’t care what heirloom it might be as long I survived and grew up healthy...” she corrected herself, looking at him showing a smile.

Jaeyoon atomically also placed a smile on him showing his dimples, her seeing Jaeyoon’s cute dimples took her defenses slightly down as the bus came, they bid their goodnights and along they ways.

But along the way Jaeyoon suddenly felt dizzy leading him to kneel with one knee down, grabbing his throbbing head as he closes his eyes, he saw human blood staining a concrete floor, human blood stench was air, cars tumbled around with windows smashed, hearing wheels stretching. Opening his eyes, cold sweats begun to drop down catching his breaths, gasping for air, he kneeled in his all fours, trying to calm himself which he successfully did, he took himself up and went home without telling his brothers what he just happened nor heard from Jaeyeon’s past, he himself wasn’t sure what really happened but one thing is for sure, “Jaeyeon isn’t an ordinary girl.” He whispered as he enters there entrance back door.

When You’re Scared To Date And Get In The Way Of His Career ~ SF9 Reaction

Inseong:

As your phone rang yet again, you knew that you couldn’t ignore Inseong forever, reluctantly picking up. Straight away as you did, you could hear him sigh in relief on the other end of the line that you’d finally answered.

It took a moment for Inseong to speak as he tried to keep his composure, “Y/N, what’s going on? I thought we agreed to meet for dinner tonight.”

“I just can’t do it,” you told him.

“Can’t do what? Come for dinner, I can always get takeout and bring it round to you instead,” Inseong suggested, understanding that you weren’t feeling up to it.

Your moment of silence spoke volumes to Inseong though. “I don’t think I can do us Inseong, the pressure, the attention, it’s just too much.”

“Where’s this come from Y/N? Can I bring food so that we can talk?”

“I don’t want to ruin the career that you’ve set up for yourself,” you calmly explained to him, “I bet there’s a camera somewhere watching you right now Inseong.”

“You’re not doing anything to my career aside from helping it,” he tried his best to tell you, “please Y/N, just talk to me over a meal.”

It didn’t take long for you to cave, hoping that a conversation could solve things, “as long as you pick up one of my favourites.”

“I will, and I promise I’ll be there in no time.”

Youngbin:

You panicked as you looked across the room and saw Youngbin, keeping your head down and trying to find your way out as quickly as possible. As you did, you bumped into a finger though, looking up to apologise.

As you did, words failed you as you realised that you’d bumped into Youngbin. “I had a feeling that I might just find you here, and I was right.”

“Why are you here?” You innocently asked.

“Are you kidding?” Youngbin laughed, keeping his eyes on you, “I’ve tried every other way to get in contact with you and had no luck, what else was I supposed to do?”

Your shoulders shrugged, trying to figure out how you could get away from Youngbin, “I’ve caused you enough trouble, just leave me alone.”

“What are you talking about? When have you ever caused me trouble?”

“Our relationship,” you murmured, keeping your eyes on your feet that you scuffed against the floor, “it was a mistake, a mistake that nearly ruined your career.”

“Says who?” Youngbin queried, quickly picking up though on exactly what you were getting at, “how many fan comments have you read?”

Once again, your shoulders shrugged, losing count some time ago, “they all guessed you were dating, and they weren’t happy either.”

“Come on, let’s get a coffee, I think we need to talk.”

Jaeyoon:

You stopped into your tracks as you walked towards the door to the main arena that would be hosting the awards ceremony for the evening, looking across to Jaeyoon with the panic clear in your expression.

He tried to pull you, but you weren’t budging. “What’s going on? Why’ve you stopped?” Jaeyoon asked, confused as to what was going on.

“I can’t do this,” you explained to him.

“Yes, you can,” Jaeyoon encouraged, offering you a wide smile, “I promise that no one will be looking at you or judging you, and they won’t be judging us either.”

Your head shook with a shaky breath, “you’re an idol, you shouldn’t be dating someone and especially bringing them here too.”

“I told you that there’s no reason to be scared in the car here.”

“I know,” you whimpered, puffing out your cheeks, “but now that I’m here, I feel like I’m just going to get in the way for you and the other boys too.”

“The boys adore you too,” Jaeyoon promised you, “just give tonight a try, and I promise that if you want to go, I’ll get you home safely.”

Your head nodded, still a little reluctant, “if too many people look our way, then I don’t think I’ll be able to do this Jae.”

“Give it a try, for me, I promise that it won’t be bad.”

Dawon:

You struggled to keep yourself together as Sanghyuk wiped underneath your eyes for you, drying your tears as best as he could. He got it, as he wrapped his arm around you, knowing how big of a change things were.

Your heart was pounding as he pulled you into him, “I’m glad we’ve had this conversation and cleared the air between us too.”

“I’m sorry for closing off,” you spoke.

“You don’t need to apologise,” Sanghyuk told you once again, “it can’t be easy for you coming into the world of an idol, but now I know, I can support you with it more.”

You sighed in reply, turning away from his eyes, “I should have just said rather than getting distant and letting you think I dislike you.”

“You didn’t know what to do, I’d have probably done the same.”

“How are you being so nice to me?” You gently laughed, feeling undeserving of how sympathetic Sanghyuk was to you, “I’ve been an idiot to you.”

“No,” he grinned, squeezing you even tighter, “I’m just being me, and if it’s nice, it’s more of a reason to stay with me, right?”

Immediately, your head nodded back at him, “you know that I never really wanted to break up with you, don’t you Sanghyuk?”

“I do, I know everything’s been a bit of a blur for you.”

Zuho:

His eyebrows furrowed together as you sat down at a table in catering far away from Juho and the rest of the boys, not wanting to draw any attention to yourself as everyone sat down during the break for lunch.

Juho wasn’t quite as willing though, soon making his way across to you. “How come you’re sitting here all by yourself and not with us?”

“I’m doing it for you,” you whispered.

“Why?” Juho questioned, noticing a look of fear in your eyes as you looked around the room, “you think everyone’s watching and talking about us, don’t you?”

Your head nodded, anxiously scanning around, “if I sit by myself, it saves anyone from judging you or starting to talk about you too.”

“What if I want people to talk about me? And about us too?”

“This is your workplace,” you reminded him, but Juho shrugged, “maybe it’s better if I keep my distance to save you from getting into trouble.”

“Sitting at lunch won’t get us in trouble,” he promised you, “but sitting apart at lunch is breaking my heart a little not having you there.”

You smiled weakly as Juho reached out for your hand underneath the table, “do you think if I sit with you everyone else will be alright with it?”

“Let them talk, I want us to do whatever we want to.”

Rowoon:

The distance between you both was worrying for Seokwoo, each time he tried to move closer towards you, you moved away. He wasn’t sure if it was the location, the timing, or just him that was the issue.

As the film finished, Seokwoo pulled you back down, refusing to let you leave. “What was all of that about?” He asked, staring across at you.

“Just ignore me,” you tried to dismiss.

“Just tell me what’s wrong,” Seokwoo requested, trying his best to meet your eyes, “you know that you can talk to me if something’s wrong.”

Your eyes flickered around to notice a group of girls still sat in the back row, “there’s people watching us Seokwoo right now.”

“And? Why should we let that stop us from doing anything?”

“I bet they’re fans of yours,” you cautiously whispered, “if they see the two of us together, they’ll tell everyone and then you’ll end up being talked about.”

“But they’d just be telling the truth,” Seokwoo tried to get you to see, “do you think that we should be embarrassed about our relationship?”

Your head shook, staring down to the floor, “I don’t want to cause any drama and risk doing something to hurt your career.”

“I can handle things, please don’t worry about me.”

Yoo Taeyang:

You didn’t know what to do as Taeyang approached your table at the coffee store, offering him a weak smile as he sat down opposite you, placing his coffee cup on the table whilst studying your expression closely.

You were silent, giving Taeyang the floor to speak first. “Can you just tell me why you suddenly decided to break up with me so suddenly?”

“I was thinking of you,” you replied.

“How?” Taeyang challenged, confused by your reply, “if you were thinking of me then we’d have stayed together because you know how happy you make me.”

You smiled nervously, taking a sip from your mug, “it’s not just about your feelings, but your career too Taeyang, you’re doing so well.”

“And I know that I can do even better with you with me.”

“Your fans won’t see it that way,” you defended, staring across at him, “and when I was at the company the other day, management weren’t exactly friendly.”

“They were rude to you?” Taeyang asked you in frustration, shaking his head, “if someone was rude to you, why didn’t you say so?”

Your shoulders shrugged in response, “because I thought it would be better for you if I left rather than causing any trouble with staff.”

“No way, they need putting right, not you Y/N.”

Hwiyoung:

You tried to shut the door, but Youngkyun placed his foot inside before you could, trying his best to ignore the pain that came with you ramming the door into his foot, knowing that the pain would be worth it.

Once you eventually caved, Youngkyun finally spoke up. “Why?” Was all he asked you, knowing that you knew what he meant straight away.

“It’s for the best,” you simply stated.

“Not for me,” he huffed, forcing his way into your home, “it’s like you just disappeared, but if I did something wrong Y/N then I won’t to know so I can fix it.”

Your head shook back at him, “I’m fixing things by leaving you alone, I don’t want to break your career with our relationship.”

“That’s what you think your doing? Have you lost your mind?”

“People are already talking,” you tried to tell Youngkyun, but before you could continue, he wrapped his arms tightly around you and pulled you closely into his chest.

“Don’t listen to them,” he whispered, squeezing them tightly, “I’m sorry that you felt like you were breaking me, but I promise that you’re not.”

Your head shook, but Younghyun kept a hold of you, “what if things between us end up getting in the way of your work with the group?”

“It won’t, we can balance things and they’ll be fine.”

Chani:

Your heart sunk as you walked out of your office to see Chanhee stood in the reception of the building, rising to his feet as soon as he saw you, making sure to give you no way out of walking past him.

You had no choice but to walk across to Chanhee, noticing his expression. “You’ve not been replying to my texts, I didn’t know what to do.”

“I need to go,” you tried to tell him.

“Y/N,” Chanhee replied, refusing to let you go, “what’s going on? You can’t avoid me like this without any explanation, I don’t deserve to be treated like this.”

Your head nodded, stopping in your tracks, “you don’t deserve a lot of what comes your way, which is why I’m doing this.”

“Doing what? I don’t understand where you’re at with us.”

“You don’t need the attention of a relationship,” you tried to tell him, but Chanhee’s head shook, grabbing your hand, “your fans won’t like me either Chanhee.”

“I don’t care about any of that,” he sighed, pulling you towards him, “you were scared to date me? Scared of what the reaction would be?”

Your head nodded once again, “can you blame me? Stepping foot into your world is crazy Chan, it’s a lot to take on just like that.”

“But we do it together, just don’t give up, please.”

Those Days ~ Kim Inseong

A smile formed on Inseong’s face as you led him out onto the balcony of the dorm, where a blanket waited for you both to sit. There was only a little bit of room, but you’d made it work, with lights strung around the barrier and a bottle of wine in the middle.

Your romantic heart never failed to surprise him, finding himself constantly flustered by the little things that you did that always kept him on his toes.

You took a hold of Inseong’s hand after closing the balcony door, inviting him to take a seat on one of the blankets, pulling out the other two that you had hidden from the wind to wrap around yourselves.

Once Inseong was sat down, you sat down too, shuffling into his side as he lifted his arm up to invite you in beside you to keep you as warm as possible. As your head landed on his shoulder, Inseong’s head landed on your own, pressing a kiss to the top of it.

“This is beautiful,” Inseong whispered down to you, looking out over the city, “I can’t believe you came up with something like this at such last minute too.”

“Our anniversary is coming up and with you not being here, I knew that I needed to do something,” you responded, tilting your head to look back up at him.

Your very first date was still something that the two of you remembered well, in a bid to recreate the picnic that Inseong took you on for that very first date, you had asked the boys for a bit of space on the balcony for the evening, something that they were more than happy to give you.

“It feels like yesterday,” Inseong suddenly whispered as he reminisced, “I remember just five minutes into the date knowing that you were the one for me.”

The two of you found yourselves sharing deep conversations from the start, learning quickly that you were on very similar wavelengths. It almost felt too good to be true, you were waiting for the bump in the road, but it never came.

As the two of you continued to reminisce, you felt Inseong’s hold around you tighten, knowing the pressures of the time were keeping up with him. Soon he’d leave you, the dorm, everything that he knew, something that deep down was terrifying him.

His biggest concern was worrying you too much, knowing that life would flip around for you too. You were always the one to take care of him, and soon you were going to find yourself lucky to even spend a day in your week with him.

“Things will be alright,” you tried your best to assure Inseong, pushing your own worries to the back of your mind to comfort him.

“Can we go back to day one all over again?”

“I wish,” you giggled lightly, “I’d love to go back to the day we first met, I bet neither of us ever thought that we’d find ourselves here.”

There were several moments when you began to doubt things, worried that on a date you’d said or done the wrong thing. All you ever wanted to do was impress Inseong and make him happy, something you still worked hard towards even after several years together.

The effort that you went to never went unnoticed by Inseong, you didn’t like to shout about the things that you did, but he would do it for you, and show off how thoughtful you were.

“Maybe when I’m away we can have picnic dates over the phone,” Inseong suggested, keeping his eyes staring down at you, “maybe some nights I might be able to sneak my dinner somewhere quiet to be able to talk to you.”

“You shouldn’t get yourself into trouble just for me.”

Inseong nodded, assuring you that he wouldn’t do anything stupid. “I’ll be careful, but I’ll also make sure that I make some time for you whenever I can as well.”

The change was something you knew that the two of you would adapt to, it had to be done, and you both had a determination inside of you to make sure that no matter how difficult things might be, you wouldn’t let them effect your relationship.

Inseong made sure that the boys all promised to stay with you too, not wanting for you to be by yourself for too long even if you’d try and argue that you were fine.

“Do you know what would be great? If they just let you come home every night,” you laughed, staring out over the city in an attempt to keep your composure.

As open as you were to talking about the future, as the near future came closer you were struggling to hold it together. You’d never spent much time apart from Inseong in your relationship since day one.

You were understanding that things would change, that the two of you wouldn’t have the freedom that you used to, but it still terrified you.

Inseong could tell as you fell silent that you were starting to worry too, nudging your side gently. “Don’t worry about this,” he whispered down to you.

A hum came from you as you took a moment to compose yourself, “the only thing that worries me right now is actually having to say goodbye.”

These ease of those early day of your relationship were slowly slipping away, as you grew up, and took on more responsibility, you felt the pressure begin to build between the two of you, amounting to what was to come.

“I’m scared too,” Inseong suddenly informed you, weakly smiling in your direction, “the thought of stepping into the unknown is a little daunting for me too, I know that I’ll make friends, but it won’t be the same as you and the boys.”

You were a little taken aback by Inseong’s confession, he had seemed much more composed and ready throughout the whole build up. “I always imagined that you just head in and know that you had a job that needed doing.”

“It’s a lot of new, even for me,” Inseong chuckled.

Your head quickly nodded in agreement with him, “at least we’ve got a few more days before change, a few more days just to relax.”

“Exactly,” Inseong mused, picking up the bottle of wine as you spoke, unscrewing the lid and picking up one of the two glasses that you had bought out with you, “let’s not worry about it for now.”

Although it played on the back of both of your minds, for one final night before things turned upside down you just wanted to remember the good times, and the earlier times too.

“You know once the next year or two is done, we’ll have the rest of our lives to do whatever,” Inseong reminded you, trying his best to comfort and cheer you up once again.

“I can’t wait for those days,” you murmured, trying your best not to fret, “even if they might be a little further away than either of us would like them to be.”

“They’re the days that you can look forward to,” Inseong chimed, “you’ve got plenty of time to plan the sorts of things that you want to do during those days, and I’ll make sure that I do the same when I’m away too.”

Slowly your smile began to turn up, “I wish we didn’t have to wait as long as we did for them.”

“They’ll be worth the wait, promise.”
