RIIZE IS SEVEN!! ALWAYS

At a recent event both sungchan and anton held up a 7, these boys seriously want seunghan back & i have a strong feeling we might get him back. We are doing well on the boycott & i dont want anyone to get tired or feel like its not worth it because it is worth it‼️ you’re doing a massive favour to seunghan & future sm idols. & you’re getting our voices heard, Keep at it :)

(For context they were asked to make a confident pose & anton & sungchan hinted at 7 )

——————-

On another topic shotaro said “there will be good news soon so please look forward to it” either we are getting our beloved seunghan back soon or its a comeback announcement, which if it is a comeback SM is trying so hard to avoid the seunghan topic & its disgusting how they are working these boys at such a sensitive time‼️

BOYCOTT SM , BOYCOTT RIIZE‼️‼️

── .✦ (01) entertainment district arc! kiri fujisaki, a demon slayer who has joined the fruitful group of tanjiro, zenitsu, inosuke, and nezuko struggles to keep her childhood best friend yuta alive.

⭑.ᐟ oc x kny | angst | mentions of blood

yuta is depicted as jjk's yuta blep :P

authors note : i wanted to write an au ff butttt i kinda got lazy to write the whole story so i just wanted to write some parts. lmk if u want a kiri backstory! all characters are aged up two years.

the white-haired girl pushed herself back onto the ground once more, wiping her blood-stained mouth with her white haori. her fingers gripped the end of her chipped nichirin sword which was white with an opalescent hue.

in front of her stood a burgundy haired boy, his shoes sunk into the ground as he defended himself with his own sword against the scythe of the upper moon demon in front of him.

"now kiri!" shouted the boy.

"seventh form, glowing eyes," her grey orbs turned orange, eyes boring into the upper moon demon who had frozen in his spot from her ability.

letting out a painful scream, with all his strength, tanjiro swung his blade into the demon's neck, ignoring the pain that was shooting through his body like every inch of his body was burning.

kiri tried her best to keep her eyes on the upper moon demon as she needed not to blink while using this ability on the enemy but she couldn't help but faltered her gaze to the boy, noticing that the scar on his forehead grew and his eyes rolled to the back of his head.

simultaneously, the heads of the demon siblings rolled onto the ground with a thud, rolling until they met one another. the group had successfully decapitated the upper moon demons.

tanjiro fell onto his feet, his hands on his jaw as he tried to catch the blood that dripped from his jaw from the poison. his chest rose up and down at an uneven manner, alarmed kiri was about to run up to him until she heard zenitsu's voice,

"k-kiri! help!"

she turned her head, eyes met with the view of zenitsu with his arms around inosuke and yuta. her eyes widened at the sight of her two friends, more so yuta. her heart dropped at the sight of him.

with all the strength she had left she picked up her speed and ran towards zenitsu's direction, her arm wrapped around yuta's shoulder as zenitsu passed him to her and brought inosuke to tanjiro.

only now processing the tremendous pain her body held, kiri's feet trembled, falling to the ground, her arm still wrapped around yuta who lay on her lap. she felt like every part of her body was screaming, aching, like a hundred knives were piercing into her skin and her head was bursting in pain.

yuta's dark hair was disheveled, sticking to the sides of his neck and cheeks from the sweat and blood and he looked paler than ever, making the dark rings under his eyes even more prominent.

"your stomach...." kiri breathed heavily, moving yuta's hands from his stomach which revealed a deep cut from daki's sash.

"it's okay," yuta swallowed the lump of blood in his throat, wiping his mouth with his uniform which was now stained a dark red. it was obvious that the poison had been quickly making its way to yuta's body, gnawing at every part of his insides.

yuta couldn't attempt to speak as he started a fit of cough, the bitter metallic taste of blood on his tongue made it uncomfortable for him.

"shh, it's okay. it's okay. you don't have to say anything just stay with me alright? i'm sure help is on the way," whispered kiri, her shaking fingers gently rubbing onto his hair in an attempt to calm him. grabbing a kunai from her thigh belt, she sliced a long fabric from her haori, and lifted yuta's body ever so slightly to tie it around his waist, covering his wound in an attempt to slow down the bleeding.

she turned her head, looking in the direction where tanjiro and the rest were. thankfully with the help of nezuko, tanjiro, tengen, and inosuke seemed to be able to speak again and showed no signs of life-threatening wounds or any effects of the poison left.

"tanjiro! h-help!" kiri called out to the boy, her voice a desperation of plea. the group immediately turned their attention to kiri and the boy who was bleeding out, rushing over to them.

"yuta...!" tanjiro drew in a breath as his burgundy eyes rounded upon seeing yuta's deep wound in his stomach.

nezuko let out a murmur, crawling to the teenage boy, her delicate and long fingers grazed upon his body as a burst of flames appeared, surprising kiri.

"don't worry, it's a blood demon art. it seems like nezuko can remove the poison from the bodies with her technique," tanjiro explained as inosuke grunted in agreement. however, it seemed like nothing had changed.

yuta's breath grew shorter as he continued a coughing fit. kiri's jaw quivered, and a bubbling sensation in her stomach grew.

"nezuko, please save him. please!" kiri begged, her hands remained on yuta's face as she wiped the blood from his cold lips with her haori.

nezuko attempted once again, everyone's eyes were glued onto her, hoping that a miracle would happen.

"why isn't it working?" asked zenitsu with an alarmed tone.

"it's too late," yuta managed to cough out, shaking his head, his brows furrowing together as he winced.

"no, it's not. don't say that," tanjiro disagreed, kneeling down beside the boy, his rough hands held onto yuta's arm in an attempt to comfort him.

"come on yuta, keep your eyes open. you'll be okay, trust me. you'll be okay," kiri whimpered, a lump forming in her throat as she struggled to speak, she couldn't tell if it was the poison she was trying to suppress or the tears.

"we've come so far yuta. remember when we were still kids in the orphanage? how you would tickle me until i screamed like crazy. how gyomei-san would carry us on his shoulders and spin us around until we felt like throwing up. how you would always cry when i got sick. how you would stick food up your nose to make me laugh," a deep emotion stirred within kiri's chest as a solemn tear fell down her cheek, "remember when you had that nightmare are you pleaded for me and gyomei-san to sleep with you. or that time when we fell asleep at the garden with our wooden swords, so tired from sparring? remember when we promised each other that we would be hashira's alongside gyomei-san?"

at this point it was difficult for kiri to have a clear vision of the boy as her eyes were welling up with tears, threathening to spill.

"of course i remember. how could i not?" yuta's voice came across as a whisper, his lips turning upwards forming a small and gentle smile, "kiri, please look at me. i want to see you one last time,"

kiri's grey eyes gazed upon yuta's dark blue ones, a mixture of pain and fondness welled up in his eyes, trickling down his cheeks. his frail hands reached to cup kiri's cheek as she leaned against his touch.

"you always look at me with those kind eyes. all those months and years we've trained to become demon slayers and look at us. we're demon slayers now," kiri tried to enunciate her words as best as she could, her jaw trembling from the grief and pain she was trying to keep from spilling out.

"i wish i could've spent longer in this lifetime to love you. thank you kiri," yuta spoke with all of his strength left, his voice sincere until the end.

kiri leaned her forehead against yuta's, "i love you yuta, please don't leave me,"

his hands fell against his side, and his eyelids closed.

kiri's chest grew heated and she felt like a rope was tied against her neck, her head throbbing from the pain.

"please don't leave me. yuta... wake up. please," her throat felt swollen as she tried to stutter the words out from her shaken lips.

her tears spilled over and cascaded down her cheeks like a dam that broke. each tear carrying the weight of a hundred emotions that refused to be contained from her resolve. she mumbled incoherent things as she choked through her tears.

a gut-wrenching sob tore through her chest and her breath became staggered, lifting her head from yuta's, she covered her face with her blood-stained hands as she continued sobbing.

tanjiro, zenitsu, insouke and nezuko could only watch tearfully, feeling the grief that kiri felt right into their own hearts as her heart-breaking sobs reverberated to the night.

the next night, akira didn't show up.

and she didn't show up for the rest of the week.

yet, anton constantly checked the time on the clock, perking his head up whenever someone the bell rang and he remained staying at the store past midnight in hopes that she would show up again.

he was confused, concerned, and worried as to why she suddenly just disappeared. he recalled what she mentioned a few days ago about how her parents found out she was sneaking out and thought that maybe they found out that she was sneaking out past midnight. he was utterly worried that she was in trouble.

anton dreaded coming to work over the past few days, just because the person he looked forward to seeing wasn't there. what worth was it to get ready for work, to tidy himself up in the morning only for her not to be there?

his close friend, sohee noticed that he wasn't acting like his usual self and took it upon himself to try and comfort his friend.

"what's wrong anton?" sohee asked, dragging a chair to sit beside his friend.

anton let out a sigh and rested his head in between his crossed arms, "nothing's wrong sohee,"

sohee rolled his eyes, "come on now anton i know you. something's clearly wrong. i can tell that you've been feeling out of it."

"what would you do if someone you liked suddenly just disappeared?" blurted anton, taking sohee by surprise.

"suddenly disappeared?" repeated sohee, "well i would be confused and hurt. and worried of course. i'd try to find out what happened. search every part of town for her if i could,"

anton brought his head up from his arms, "search every part of town for her? why haven't i thought of that?"

anton immediately stood up on his feet at sohee's response and hurriedly took off his work apron, grabbing his messenger bag and slinging it over his head.

"woah there where do you think you're going?" sohee followed suit, placing an arm on his hip as he watched anton fold his work apron.

"i'm going to town to search for her," sohee's jaw fell open, astounded that anton actually took his words to heart, "wow she must be really something,"

anton nodded sheepishly, "please tell the owner that something important came up,"

sohee gave him a thumbs up, "good luck anton!"

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

anton let out a sigh, realizing that this was already the second time that he passed by the same bench again. he had walked around the town, discreetly checking the neighborhood, parks, stores, and restaurants in hopes that he would bump into akira.

"where could she be?" anton asked himself, his eyes observing the area around him.

as he walked past the fountain which was located in the center of the town, his ears perked up at a conversation shared between a group of teenage girls.

"did you hear? they're holding a ball this friday in honor of the princess!" squealed one of them with short hair.

"i read that she was to be engaged to prince wonbin. isn't he the dreamiest? i heard that they were childhood friends as well. it's such a love story. i wish i was a princess," cooed the other with long blonde hair.

"oh i'd love to be princess akira. she's living the dream,"

anton froze in his spot.

"princess...akira?"

he repeated it over and over again. princess akira. princess akira. princess akira. princess akira. princess. akira. suddenly he felt like his knees were growing weak and that he was seconds away from falling onto the ground. he was hit with a realization that made him physically dizzy.

everything made sense now.

she always wore a hood, to hide herself from the public in case someone recognized her. she had a specific curfew because she was sneaking out. her parents didn't want her to go out. she wore a different dress nearly every single day, and her hair was always neatly tied. she always had a pristine, royal aura that was indescribable.

everything made sense.

the reason why she stopped appearing was most likely that her parents found out that she was sneaking out again or that there was something else going on that anton didn't know about.

anton rushed over to the group of teenage girls, "she's to be engaged to prince wonbin?"

the girls looked at each other, startled by his sudden appearance.

"have you read the paper? apparently, she's to be married to prince wonbin. their parents have been friends for ages and they were planning on expanding their kingdom," explained the blonde girl while her friends furiously nodded in agreement.

"here look," the short-haired girl shoved the newspaper into anton's hand.

right there on the front cover of the page was a photo of her and the said prince. she had a delicate smile on her face which mirrored the one the prince had as well, their arms linked. he had a gorgeous face and it was evident that god really took their time making his face. as much as anton wanted to deny it, they looked perfect for each other. anton felt his heart sink into the pit of his stomach. a wave of uneasiness clouded over him and his mind was in disarray. there was a gnawing anguish that terrorized him, misery written all over his face. he felt the tears well up in his eyes and he forcefully tore his gaze away from the paper.

anton handed the paper into the girl's hand and walked away before he started to pick up the pace and started sprinting, eyes blurring with tears. he needed to go home.

anton fell onto his bed, an arm over his eyes as he tried to swallow the information. he couldn't believe it. he didn't want to believe it. the photo of them together was haunting his mind, making his insides clench together.

she was to be married to a prince. and anton was far from a prince. he didn't live in a castle, he didn't have a kingdom, he was just a normal teenager working at a bar, serving customers and selling instruments. he didn't stand a chance against wonbin who was a prince. he was just a nobody. a normal person. and akira was a princess. someone who was at a much higher status than him. he didn't even deserve to be in her presence.

the whole time that they hung out together he could only ask himself, why did she hide the fact that she was a princess? why couldn't she ever tell him? was all the secret smiles, the fluttering heart moments they shared for nothing?

anton's body wracked with the force of his sobs, his chest was hurting from trying to breathe. he was heartbroken. he was hurt.

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

it was the night of the ball and anton was curled up in his bed, listening to the sounds of the wind blowing, the loud music that was playing in the bar a few miles away from him, and the sound of his quiet sniffles.

"anton? are you in here?" sohee asked from the opposite side of the door, "come on anton you can't stay in your room forever. i've run out of excuses to give to the owner!"

"go away sohee," mumbled anton, just loud enough for sohee to hear.

"i'm not going to go away until you tell me what happened,"

anton removed the blanket from his legs and trudged his way to open the door to his room. sohee nearly tumbled down to the ground as he was leaning against the door.

"well you look like you've been going through it," sohee cleared his throat, noticing how disheveled his hair looked and his tear-stained cheeks.

"it's over sohee. can you believe it? im in love with the princess," anton whispered sitting on his bed there was an evident tone of sadness in his voice.

sohee's gaze on him softened as he took a seat beside him, "so she was the girl huh? who would've thought that a princess would've been visiting our store,"

"she's to be throned to someone else. a prince," anton whimpered, "how am i supposed to compete with a prince? he's probably proposing to her right now,"

"maybe she's not in love with him. just because he's a prince doesn't mean that she's infatuated with him. for all i know maybe she's in love with you too. haven't you thought about that?" started sohee, patting anton's back, "it doesn't matter if she's a princess, you love her for who she is right? and if you never let her know how you feel, you'll live with that regret."

anton wiped his nose with the sleeves of his shirt, "i think that might've been the wisest thing you've ever said to me,"

sohee threw his head back laughing, his eyes forming crescents, "i feel flattered. thank you. now come on, you have to tell her how you feel before it's too late."

"but how? how the hell am i supposed to get into the castle?"

sohee grinned deviously, "oh anton, leave that to me,"

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

anton fell onto the luscious fresh grass with a thump. he got back up on his feet, dusting off the grass off his pants and wiping his hands on his shirt.

sohee knew of a secret passageway to the castle garden that he accidentally came across a few months ago. and luckily for the two of them, there were no guards in their paths or people. however, anton did have to crawl through a passageway that nearly crushed his body as well as climb over a wall.

anton cautiously walked around the garden. there were rows and rows of flowers such as roses, lavenders, and daisies as well as wall bushes that made the garden feel like a maze. anton found himself at a secluded part of the garden where there was a small fountain in a shape of a heart, as well as a figure sat on the edge of it, head in their hands.

anton took a sharp inhale of air, his heart hammering against his chest.

"akira...?"

the said princess stood up in a rush, eyes widening as she watched anton walk closer to her. for the first time, her brown hair wasn't tied and instead, it was let down in waves with a dainty tiara sitting on top of her head. she wore an off-shoulder pale rose-colored dress with layers of ruffles going down to her ankles. a crystal necklace wrapped around her neck, glimmering under the moonlight. her eyes were teary, indicating that she had been crying previously but despite that, she looked more beautiful than ever. there were no words in the dictionary that could describe how beautiful she was.

anton felt underdressed considering that he was only wearing formal pants as well as a fitted blouse. in this moment he felt like he wasn't suited to be in the presence of a princess.

"anton? what are you doing here? h-how did you get in here?" she asked frantically, taking in the sight of the person in front of her.

anton didn't answer her question but instead sat at the edge of the fountain, "why did you just disappear without saying anything?"

the two were embraced in silence as akira sat beside him, fiddling with her fingers.

"ever since that night, a lot of things happened. i- i wanted to tell you about who i was. i really did but i couldn't find the right time to do so. i was afraid that you'd see me differently or treat me differently. i would've hated for you to change the way you acted just because i'm a princess. i didn't want you to see me as royalty," akira started, her voice quiet and honest, "the store was my only getaway from this place. this castle. i've been cooped up here nearly every day of my life and it felt so suffocating. that was until i sneaked out one day and stumbled upon you and the store. it was like a breath of fresh air to finally be somewhere where i was treated like a normal person. where i could be myself and not have to worry about my duties, my parents, and everything else. i really did want to tell you anton,"

she took a deep breath before she continued, "but my parents found out that i wasn't in my room during the afternoons and i was watched over by the maids. so i could only sneak out during the night when everyone was asleep. that night that i was supposed to see you, they found the tunnel i used to sneak out. it was barred and there were people taking guard so i had no way to see you. it was frustrating and i didn't know what to do. and on top of that, i had to prepare for the ball today. i really did want to see you anton. i'm glad i got to see you again,"

anton felt his heart slightly at ease that she didn't get into deep trouble by sneaking out. but there was something else that bothered him.

"what about prince wonbin? i heard that you were to be throned to him," he stammered, biting his lip.

"prince wonbin? oh no i only see him as my friend and nothing more. though it is true that i was supposed to be married to him, we both agreed that it wasn't something we wanted. i don't see him as a lover," anton felt the heavy-hearted feeling leave his chest and he could finally breathe again. he felt so relieved.

at this point, anton wasn't really sure what she was talking about anymore. something about how wonbin and her were childhood friends and their parents being friends. but his focus was on her facial expression, how she was furrowing her brows and grimacing at the thought of dating him, how her plump lips were moving, the sparkle in her eyes, and how the moonlight made her look so angelic. he felt bad for not paying close attention to what she was saying.

when akari was done rambling, she noticed the soft tender look in anton's eyes, as well as the smile that was displayed on his face. he looked adorable. she swore that she had never felt butterflies in her stomach until now.

anton slowly closed the distance between them so that their shoulders touched. his pinky reaching out for hers.

"can i kiss you?" breathed anton, his voice quiet and shy. but he couldn't help himself. to be with her was all he wanted right now. his heart was pounding so loud he could only hear his heart ringing in his ears.

anton caressed her face, as she leaned into him, closing the distance between the two as their lips collided with each other. once they separated, anton's face flushed, looking away. he felt like his heart could burst at any minute.

building the courage to look back at her again, his heart raced even faster as she laughed at him, her cheeks as rosy as the roses in the garden.

hearing the sound of the ensemble finally playing, akira stood up, offering her hand to the boy, "would you like a dance with me?"

anton rolled his eyes jokingly, grinning as he accepted her hand.

"just so you know, i've never danced before," confessed anton, placing a hand around her waist and the other on her shoulder while both of her hands rested on his broad shoulders.

"well i'm glad to be your first then," smiled akira as they swayed to the music, basking under the moonlight.

"you're everything i've ever dreamed of, princess," gushed anton.

"don't call me that," snorted akira. she leaned her head against his chest, hearing the fast pacing of his heartbeat.

"is it okay? for a person like me to be in love with you. i mean. i'm just a normal person," spoke anton, a hint of sadness in his voice, "i work at a bar and you...you're a princess,"

"i'm just a person like everyone else. and i want you to see me as me," akari stopped swaying to the music and lifted her head to face anton. she brushed away a long strand of hair that covered his face, "and besides, i love you as you are my prince,"

anton felt like he could've died happy right there and then. if it was even possible, he was blushing even harder.

"and i love you as you are,"

tilting his head down, anton closed the space between them again, his soft lips meeting hers as he brought her closer by the waist.

under the moonlight, they professed their love for each other and shared a happy ending.

☆ fluff, royal au

(suggested listening: laufey, what falling in love feels like)

the tall brunette hummed quietly as his long fingers grazed against the guitars on display. chatters and sounds of clinking glasses filled the store.

anton worked as a server, as well as an occasional performer at the town's bar and instrument shop. wanting to support his family and his younger brother, he gladly accepted the job offer when the owner found out that he had a knack for playing the cello.

noticing that one of the guitars was dusty, he pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, held the neck of the guitar, and slid the handkerchief across the frets, removing the dust.

as he did so, he felt the weight of someone bump into his back, causing him to stumble on his feet.

"oh my god im so sorry!" a girl stood before him, her hands gripping the beige fabric of her dress. she wore a beige-colored dress with long sleeves as well as a brown hood that sat on her shoulders. she had brown hair that was tied into one long braid. her round eyes met anton's and for a second, he felt like the air was knocked out of his lungs. he had never seen such a beautiful person. he couldn't even call her beautiful for it felt like the word was undeserving for her.

anton blinked, bringing himself back to reality, "oh no it's alright,"

his voice was quiet and soft like velvet. anton quickly averted his gaze from the girl, stuffing his handkerchief from his pocket.

"do you work here?" she asked the boy.

anton nodded his head and for some reason, he couldn't find the courage to meet her eyes. was he even deserving to look at someone as beautiful as her?

"i've always wanted to visit here. there's such an array of instruments. if i could, i'd love to play all of them," she beamed as she looked around the store.

"you can always try out the instruments if you'd like," spoke anton, watching as she walked around the store, curiosity lingering in her eyes.

she turned to face the boy with excited round eyes, "really? i'd love that," she walked towards anton, "by the way, what's your name?"

"anton lee. and yours?" anton sheepishly answered, flattered that she asked for his name.

"akari," replied the girl.

'akari. what a fitting name for such a girl whose presence was radiating with such elegance, light, and beauty,' anton thought himself.

akari's eyes flickered to the clock that was displayed on the wall. her mouth opened slightly before she hurriedly wore the hood back onto her head.

"i have to leave now but i'll come back tomorrow. it was nice meeting you, anton." she smiled at him before she walked out of the store. the way she said his name made his heart flutter. he'd love to hear her say his name again and he was already looking forward to the next day.

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

anton was sitting on a chair, resting his chin on the palm of his hand as he stared at the small stage. occasionally, his eyes would flicker to the clock. his feet tapped against the ground feeling slightly impatient and nervous. the sound of the bell from the door rang, diverting his attention to whoever entered the store.

to his pleasure, it was the person that had been on his mind the whole night. akari entered the store with the same hoodie that she wore the previous day. but today, her hair was tied into bun and she wore a brown dress that was the same color as her eyes.

"anton!" she greeted him, her lips curling into a smile.

"hi akira," anton greeted back, standing from his seat and dusting off the invisible dirt from his pants.

"god i couldn't sleep at all last night. i kept thinking about what instrument to play. but after a long thought, i think i'd like to try out the guitar today," akira's hands moved animatedly as she spoke, there was a glistening look of excitement in her eyes.

"do you have any experience of playing an instrument?" curiously asked anton.

akira nodded to his question, "i know how to play the piano. well i was forced to," her voice turned quiet towards the end of the sentence and anton being the attentive person he was, was quick to note it.

"i-i'd love to hear you play," anton bashfully said, making akira grin.

"i'll play for you one day. now let's get a guitar!"

the two sat across each other. on akira's lap was a light brown colored guitar and on anton's lap was a dark brown colored one.

"so...how do you play a chord on this?" asked akira as she strummed the first few strings of the guitar.

"it's fairly easy to play and memorize the chords on a guitar. this chord for instance is a g chord," anton demonstrated by strumming the chord and akira tried to copy his finger placements.

"and this one is a d chord,"

"this is an f chord, it's a bit trickier to play," anton watched as akira's pointer finger stretched out across the fret, the rest of her slim fingers struggling to stay put on the frets.

"here, if you use this finger instead it's easier," anton leaned closer, changing the placements of her fingers. he noticed the difference in the size of their hands, how her fingers were smaller, and how her nails were neatly trimmed.

"i think i got it," exclaimed akira as she strummed the said chord.

"i have a chart for all the guitar chords if you're interested," anton brought up. akira nodded eagerly.

a few short minutes later anton came back with a sheet of paper in his hand. he sat back down in his seat and handed akira the sheet of chords. akira looked at the sheet in her hands.

"did you draw the chord charts yourself?" questioned akira, noticing the smudges of pencil here and there.

"yeah i did," sheepishly answered anton, fiddling with the strings of the guitar.

"that's amazing. your handwriting is super neat. this is going to be so helpful," akira looked up from the sheet, her eyes meeting anton's brown doe eyes, "thank you,"

anton felt the heat rising to his cheeks and he quickly averted her gaze, stammering "it's nothing really,"

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

over the next few days, anton spent his afternoon with akira, teaching her how to play the guitar. he enjoyed the time he spent with her, whether it was silently watching her practice, listening to her hum ever so often, or even listening to one of her rambles.

"oh come on anton! you work at an instrument store how do you not know how to play the saxophone?" queried akira, the saxophone in her hands.

"i don't know how to play all the instruments. i wish i did though," anton waved his hands, defending himself.

"just try it at least," akira shoved the saxophone in his hands. he couldn't say no to the desperate look in her eyes.

"fine," he murmured.

anton took a deep breath before he blew into the reed, pressing the keys in hope that something sounded right. anton created the most disharmonic noises possibly known to mankind. it was as if someone jumbled up three songs and hoped for the best.

akira found it amusing, bursting out into laughter. her laugh was just like the rest of her- genuine and sweet. her eyes were crinkled, her teeth showing just slightly. her laughter could brighten up the whole room. and she was laughing all because of him. anton was proud of himself that he was able to evoke such a joyous emotion from her just by playing the wrong keys on the saxophone. he felt slightly embarrassed at the fact that he played so terribly that she found it hilarious but nevertheless, anton found himself smiling, ignoring the flutter of his heart and how the tips of his ears were reddening.

"actually, never mind. never play the saxophone again," akira said in between laughter as she held her stomach.

"come on now, i don't think i was that bad," joked anton, putting the saxophone back in its place.

"well, if you never practice and learn, you'll definitely become a world class saxophonist," teased akira, her cheeks flushed pink from all the laughter.

"yeah yeah i'd like to see you try to play the saxophone," anton rolled his eyes earning a head shake from the girl.

"no thank you,"

akira glanced at the clock on the wall and let out a gasp. she hurriedly packed her belongings into the small pouch she always brought with her.

"oh god i'm gonna be late. i have to go anton," she worried, wearing her hood.

"i'll see you tomorrow?" anton asked, tilting his head slightly with his hands in his pocket.

akira smiled and nodded her head, bidding goodbye to the boy.

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

the next day, akira didn't come.

she wasn't there the day after that as well.

anton ran his fingers through his hair as he checked the clock on the wall for what seemed like the hundredth time of the day. many thoughts ran through his head throughout the day.

what if she got into trouble? what if she found another store to go to? what if she got bored of him? what if she moved to a different city? did i do something wrong?

akira was a mysterious girl. anton always wondered why she had such a specific curfew and why she always had a hood on her. not once had he seen her without one. there was something odd about her that he couldn't place his finger on.

aside from the many questions anton had about akira, he also wondered why he felt distraught that she didn't visit him.

his eyes glazed over the bar, watching as people clink their glasses together and chatter amongst themselves.

"why do you keep staring at the time?" anton's head snapped to the person beside him, startled.

"it's nothing sohee...." he sighed, adjusting the black tie around his collar.

his older friend sohee raised a brow at him, crossing his arms he asked, "are you looking for someone? perhaps the girl whose been visiting you these past few days?"

a bashful look overtook anton's face and he cleared his throat, "w-what are you talking about?"

sohee rolled his eyes and placed his hand on the taller boy's shoulder, "oh anton you know exactly what girl i've been talking about. some of the other workers have mentioned her. how is she like? is she pretty? is she nice?"

"she's the most amazing person ever. she has this aura that's just so... alluring. i don't know how to describe her. i can't find the right words to," anton breathed, her smiling face appearing in his mind.

"sounds like my friend is in love," sohee cooed with a teasing grin.

"in love? what? no no she's just my friend," denied anton shaking his head.

"i don't know who would describe their friend as 'the most amazing person ever'," retorted sohee, "you literally have heart eyes right now,"

anton bit his lip, trying to deny the fact that he was falling in love with a girl he'd just met over a week ago.

"i have to meet her! if she comes again you better introduce me to her," sohee chirped before he scurried elsewhere to serve a customer.

"anton, you're up in five."

anton let out a sigh and made his way to the side of the stage where his cello was waiting for him. once the previous performer had finished performing their song, anton made his way to the stage. the sleeves of the work blouse he wore was rolled up to his elbows, his firm veins on display.

the crowd cheered for anton as he introduced himself. he didn't perform every night, only once every few days or maybe once a week. he was a bit shy and he hated being in the limelight for too long but performing for the bar was good money so he couldn't really complain.

anton took in a deep breath before he started playing the new piece he learned. he pressed against the strings of the cello, using his bow to express all the notes. he played the cello beautifully like it was an extension of himself. as he closed his eyes, immersing himself in the music he wished that akira was here.

the crowd applauded loudly for anton once he was finished. whoops, claps, and cheers were heard around the room as he fluttered his eyes open. to his surprise, his eyes were met with a familiar pair.

it was fairly dark but he could see the faint silhouette of a hooded girl at the back of the crowd. her brown eyes were glued onto him and he couldn't tell if it was the lights but her eyes were sparkling, almost teary-eyed. anton's heart raced, and he had to blink twice to make sure that he wasn't seeing things.

anton rushed to take a bow and pack his cello back into his case. he squirmed through the crowd, muttering small thanks to the people who complimented his performance. all he could think about was akira.

and there she was, standing in the corner of the bar wearing a silky long white nightgown. like the first time he saw her, her hair was tied into a long braid that laid over her shoulder.

"akira," he breathed, the grip on his strap tightened. he noticed the look in her eyes, how it was a contortion of gloom and something else.

"you play the cello so beautifully. i never knew that you could play," admired akira.

the corners of anton's lips curved into a small smile, "thank you akira. and you never really asked,"

akira giggled quietly before the two of them were engulfed in silence. in the background was the next performer playing the violin.

"why didn't you come the other day?" anton broke the silence. akira looked away with a troubled gaze which only made anton worry more.

"my parents found out that i've been sneaking out. and since then, it was harder for me to find a way and time to sneak out. i'm really sorry for not coming," explained akira as she fiddled with the strings of her hood.

"hey, it's alright. but you shouldn't be sneaking out. i'd hate for you to get into more trouble," anton remarked as he leaned against the wall beside akira, glancing at her worriedly.

akira bit her lip, "it's hard not to when this is the only freedom i have. visiting you...this place is the only place where i can feel like i can truly be myself. where i don't have to worry so much about my future, who i am, who i want to be, and what to do. it's like my little getaway,"

"you don't have to worry about anything when you're here. you're always welcome here," comforted anton, bumping his shoulder with hers. akira looked distressed and anton could see it. he noticed the foreign expression displayed on her face and the furrowed brows and forwn did not go unnoticed by him. akira finally smiled, having to tilt her head slightly to look up at him which made his stomach swirl.

"if you'd like you can come here anytime you're able to," suggested anton ignoring the subtle flutter of his heart.

akira's eyes rounded, batting her long lashes like an excited dog she asked, "really? is that possible?"

"well i'm sure the owner wouldn't mind if i let you in the shop during closing hours," anton rubbed the nape of his neck praying that the owner would be fine with the idea.

"would after midnight be fine? i won't be able to go out during broad daylight," asked akira.

"it should be fine. i'll ask the owner for you,"

"thank you so much anton!" beamed akira, feeling giddy. anton smiled to himself, delighted that she looked happy.

⭑･ﾟﾟ･:༅｡.｡༅:ﾟ::✼✿　　✿✼:ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

"the store looks so much different now that it's midnight," hummed akira as she walked around the store. the only light was from the streetlights outside the bar as well as the moonlight that seeped through the windows. what once was a bar filled with loud conversations shared amongst strangers and loud music was gone.

akira made her way to the piano, sitting on the leathered piano bench.

"is it alright if i play the piano?" asked akira.

"of course you can. i'd be delighted to hear you play," answered anton, sitting in the empty space beside her. the piano bench was just big enough for the two of them to sit. they were close enough that their shoulders brushed against each other.

akira's fingers grazed against the keyboards, feeling the familiar hard and cold keys under her fingers. she gracefully pressed the keys, stepping onto the pedals with her flats. a euphonious sound filled the room.

there was something about the way her face was illuminated by the moonlight, the way her eyes closed at certain parts of the song, the way her brown hair framed her face, and the way she turned to look at him with stars in her eyes that he'd count that made him realize,

fuck, he was in love.

roses began to creep beneath anton's cheeks when akira shyly adverted his eyes. they were so close that anton could smell the light scent of the perfume she wore. she smelled clean, like lilacs and vanilla. the fluttering in his chest grew louder, ringing in his ears. he was afraid that akira could hear his racing heartbeat.

akira tucked the strands of her hair behind her ears as she grinned at anton. 'has he always been this handsome?' she thought to herself. she had never realized how gorgeous he was now that they were close. his dark hair fell over his rounded eyes that were looking at her like she was the moon. he had a nose gifted by the gods, heck his whole face was carefully hand-sculpted by angels. his pink lips were curved into a small smile. a crimson adorned her face as she realized that she was staring at him for a bit too long. she diverted her attention to the keyboard in front of her, an unfamiliar feeling taking over her.

"you're amazing," gushed anton, "i-i mean your piano! when you play the piano...it's gorgeous," stuttered anton, earning a chuckle from the girl.

"thank you. we should play together, as a duet one day," suggested akira, tapping her fingers against the keys.

"i'd love to play with you," admitted anton, loving the suggestion.

silence fell over the two teenagers before akira turned to face the boy.

"hey anton...there's something i need to tell you,"

"what is it?" asked anton, suddenly feeling nervous.

"i..." akira paused for a moment, a faltering gaze in her eyes before she looked away from anton, "actually it's nothing. nevermind,"

"you can tell me anything," anton placed his larger hands over akira's, surprising himself with the bold action.

akira forced a smile, "maybe it's not the right time yet. but i'll tell you, soon."

the next night, akira didn't show.

feeling conflicted, lonesome and unwanted, cat noir finds comfort in his classmate yuki on a rooftop of a stranger’s house. 

inspired by suki waterhouse’s good looking (im so obsessed with this song KNSDKFNK)

✩ fluff, slight angst (very slight)

✩ minor season 4 miraculous spoilers

✩ fem!oc x cat noir 

yuki hummed along to the tune of her favourite song with her hands inside the pocket of her oversized grey hoodie as she took careless steps on the tiles of a strangers rooftop.

yuki loved strolling. whether it was on a sidewalk, the beach or even on a strangers rooftop. it was her favourite getaway activity. whenever she wanted to clear her head, or when she was bored or even to have some peace from her family, she was strolling by herself.

yuki stopped in her tracks once she heard a voice. she carefully hid behind a chimney, squinting her eyes to take a better look at the person. 

it was a silhouette of black. if she hadn’t stopped momentarily in her stroll she might not have noticed him as he blended in with the night sky. with prominent cat ears sticking out of his blonde locks, yuki knew very well who he was.

‘cat noir...?’ she mumbled to herself.

“i don’t get it...what is it that i don’t have? im charming, responsible (at times) and funny! what other traits do i need to make her like me?” he sighed, out stretching his arms and letting himself lay on the brick tile.

his eyes fluttered shut, “ill never be good enough,”

“mind if i sit here?” 

the voice of another person startled the superhero, making him immediately rise up from his position and bumping foreheads with the other figure.

“oh gosh i’m so sorry!” apologised the blonde, acknowledging the other figure who was rubbing her forehead.

it was his classmate, yuki kugisaki who was a fairly new transfer student from japan. her parents were part of gabriel agreste’s small circle of close relations. he wouldn’t say that they were close friends but just good acquaintances. 

“yuki?” 

“you know my name?” the long haired female raised her brow at the superhero.

“uh i- of course i do! i’m paris’s superhero so of course i know everyone’s name,” cat noir blurted, waving his hands frantically. 

“that’s....cool?” yuki wasn’t completely assured that it was true but she shrugged it off.

“so what are you doing here?” yuki asked, pulling the grey hood off her head.

“i should be asking you that. how did you get on a rooftop?” cat noir crossed his arms.

“well obviously i used my hi tech converse shoes that allows me to jump meters from the ground and fly from roof top to roof top,”

cat noir’s eyes flickered to her black shoes, “really?”

“of course not!” yuki rolled her eyes in a joking manner, “i just climbed,”

“well you’re a really great climber,” praised cat noir, “not as good as me though,”

“yeah yeah whatever so anyways are you going to answer my question?” she asked again.

cat noir let out a deep sigh and switched his gaze to the sky, “i just needed some alone time. i’ve been feeling so conflicted these days,” 

“was i ruining your alone time?oh god im so sorry i should leave-” 

“it’s okay you can stay,” cat noir cut off her sentence, “i’ve been having a bit too much alone time these days anyways...” he pressed his lips together.

“well um you can talk to me about it if you want but i won’t force you or anything because if you want to keep things private thats fine too since you’re a superhero and all! but sometimes it’s good to let things out instead of bottling them up. trust me, i know. if you need an ear i’m always here. well not to give you my ear but to listen. i’m a great listener,” yuki blabbered, her hands flying everywhere as she talked.

a small smile made it’s way onto cat noir’s face, “thank you yuki,”

the male bit his lip, debating whether or not he should open up to her. as long as he didn’t mention anything that surrounded his secret identity it would be fine.

“nowadays i feel like ladybug doesn’t need me anymore. it used to be just me and her. but now its me, her and a bunch of new other superheroes. well... i guess i’m partly to blame as to why we need new superheroes. i’ve been busy with my personal life that i’m not always there to help ladybug when theres an akumatization,” he paused, “i wish i could be with her all the time. but i know that i can’t. with all these new superheroes i feel like i’m just another one of her sidekicks and...another one of her admirers.”

cat noir brought his knees against his chest, his eyes glistening with tears that he’s kept in for so long that threatened to fall, “im in love with her. im in love with someone whose in love with someone else. i know that she’ll never love me and it’s the most painful thing ever,” his voice trembled with such pain and heartbreak.

yuki moved closer to the male, bringing her own knees to her chest. 

“ladybug needs you and you need ladybug. i know i’m not really anyone to say this but her chemistry with you is much more different than with the other new superheroes. i can tell how much you cherish your relationship with her and i’m pretty sure that she cherishes it as much as you do.” yuki turned to face the male, “if i was a superhero, i’d be delighted to have you as my partner,”

“and as for your romance situation...love is...difficult. it always is a difficult thing. i’ve seen my mom break into pieces because of love. its powerful, scary and beautiful. you can’t force love. maybe one day ladybug will see you more as a partner. but in the meantime try your best to make her see all the best parts of you and all the parts she’s missing,” yuki’s mouth curved up into a smile, “remember that you’re not just a sidekick. you’re cat noir! a super cool, super good looking superhero whose funny (at times) and that you’re a person too,”

cat noir was absolutely speechless at her genuine and kind words. how was it possible that she was able to say such nice things that could make him feel so much better? he had never felt more calm and comforted by a person ever before until he talked to her. 

the corners of his eyes crinkled, “yuki...thank you. your words mean a lot to me,”

“it’s no problem really. superheroes need some comforting too,” grinned yuki, patting his shoulder. he had never had the chance to take in the appearance of the female up close. her eyes were dark, almost like a deep abyss you could get lost in. he could see his own reflection in her bright eyes, along with the twinkles of the city lights. her dark jet black hair moved ever so slightly when the wind breezed. she was enchanting.

realising that he had been staring for too long, cat noir cleared his throat and looked away, with reddening cheeks.

the two remained silent as they stared at the sky. the night sky was aglow with bright lights from the street lamps. the pale crescent moon shone so brightly and mystical that it was nearly impossible to look away from it.

the sound of yuki’s alarm broke the silence between the two. the female fished her phone from the pocket of her hoodie, eyes rounding at the time. she had to leave before her family got suspicious about her whereabouts. she hastily jumped from the roof, letting out a yelp as she felt one of the tiles underneath her shoe slide, making her lose balance. 

“maybe your super hi tech converse shoes needs some repairs,” grinned the cat. his arm was around her waist and the other was on her shoulder. now that he was standing in front of her, she never noticed his height nor how he oddly smelled like camembert. 

a flush crept up yuki’s face as she laughed at his joke, “yeah i should take it for repairs then,” 

realising that cat noir was still holding onto her she cleared her throat, “well um i have to go back home soon incase my family becomes suspicious of me. i’ll see you soon?”

cat noir smiled softly, “yeah, see you soon.”

he watched as she bidded goodbye to him and skilfully run across the rooftops. during the time he spent with her, not once did ladybug come across his mind.

‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾　　☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙  

riki nisihimura. that is the name of ENHYPEN'S youngest member (preferably called niki). being the only full foreigner on the team, there were a lot of things he had to sacrifice in order to be where he was today. he had to sacrifice his childhood in exchange for his trainee years. he had to move away from his dear and beloved family.

the boy was at the ripe age of fifteen, holding the title of maknae in his group. there existed instances where he felt alone. he had trouble from time to time understanding the korean language. well... he wasn't to blame. he wasn't native to the country so he couldn't be 100% fluent in the language. he was extremely grateful to his members for helping him learn the language, teaching him to understand it better. he was even more grateful to his fellow member's jay and yuki for speaking to him in japanese, making him a bit more comfortable.

there were times when niki thought about the life he had back in japan. he often thought about how his life would've been if he had never come to korea and debuted in ENHYPEN. he would be with his family, continuing school, and probably retained healthy hair. but he was happy with his choice. he finally got to pursue his dreams.

or was he happy?

niki was often conflicted with his own emotions. sometimes his homesickness would get the best of him. the poor fifteen-year-old boy was stranded away from his family and so he would put up a facade, pretending that moving to korea was the best decision he ever made. niki missed his family so bad. he didn't know when the next time he would see them be. well, if he was ever able to again.

a single tear rolled down his cheek. the more he wiped them away, the more they kept coming down. he sniffled as he curled himself under the blanket, thankful that he was the only one in the room at the moment. he hated for the members to see him in his vulnerable state.

niki thought about his family and how much he wanted to be with them so bad.

in the midst of his cry, he heard a faint voice, "niki? niki?"

niki remained under his blanket, biting his lip to refrain any sobs from escaping. he quietly waited under his blanket, hoping that they wouldn't approach him.

"niki, i know you're under the blanket,"

niki slowly peeled the blanket away from his face, quickly wiping away his tears in a harsh manner before he got up, his head facing downwards.

"hey, what's wrong?" he felt a hand gently placed on his shoulder, urging him to look up. the female in front of him stared at him with concern and worry, gaze gentle.

niki felt the walls of his throat constrict. almost as if he was struggling to swallow down all the painful emotions he was feeling. niki sighed heavily, letting his head drop once more. yuki wrapped her arms around his back, pulling him into her embrace.

niki found himself crying on her shoulder. his sobs weren't loud but fairly quiet. but his sobs carried heavy emotions in them. he had been keeping his emotions in for so long.

"i'm right here. it's okay," she whispered in their native language. her graceful fingers caressed his head slowly. niki found comfort in her hug, reminding him of the time he was comforted by his own mother.

once his sobs had quietened down, yuki pulled away from him, placing a hand on his shoulder, "would you like to tell me what's on your mind?"

niki hesitated for a moment but he nodded his head. before he could speak, he was cut off,

"but first, lay here," yuki comfortably laid down on his single bed and patted the space next to her.

"w-where?" he questioned, tilting his head in slight confusion.

"next to me you idiot," stuttered yuki in embarrassment, looking away to hide her tinted cheeks.

warmth spread on niki's cheeks as he finally understood yuki's words . he was reluctant at first but gave in. he squeezed himself on the single bed, squirming beside yuki. there was barely space in between their heads as their hairs mangled together. with just the slightest movement, niki could feel yuki's hand.

"okay, you can tell me what's on your mind now," yuki cleared her throat.

"i....i feel homesick," sniffled niki. yuki remained quiet, allowing niki to continue

"sometimes i wonder what it would've been like if i stayed in japan instead of moving here. but if i did, i wouldn't have been able to debut in ENHYPEN and meet you all. i haven't seen my family in a year and i miss them a lot. i wish i could see them right now," niki took a pause in his words, allowing himself to calm down for a bit before continuing, "i don't know when will be the next time i could see them...sometimes i ask myself if i am doing the right thing?"

"i understand you niki. i miss my family too. especially my cat. it's alright to feel homesick. we all feel homesick a little sometimes. i know that you will be able to see your family soon. they miss you as much as you miss them," her head turned to face niki who was staring above,  "i think that you're doing the right thing. you always wanted to become a kpop idol right? well now, you're pursuing your dreams. there's so much in store for you in the future. you're so talented and so young. i know your parents are happy with the decision you made. you have to continue making them proud,"

yuki's words had made him calm down. all his negative thoughts seemed to have flown out the window by just the little words she had said. they meant a lot to him. niki couldn't remember when was the last time he was properly comforted.

niki's hands rested on top of yuki's palm, giving it a small squeeze(which was quite a bold move for a fifteen-year-old if i do say so myself).

he turned his head, "thank you yuki,"

their noses were barely inches away. at the close proximity, the two immediately turned their heads to the other side, suddenly feeling shy. this had made niki's heart race (how unfortunate for the boy since he had just calmed down).

"oh um, it's no problem," yuki cleared her throat for the second time of the day, her eyes wandering around the room. she didn't want to recall how beautiful his brown eyes were up close. the glossiness from when he was crying made them even prettier. there was a sort of depth in his eyes that made her intrigued. she shook her thoughts away.

the two remained silent, too busy in their own thoughts.

there was such warmth that radiated from yuki. it was exactly what niki needed at this moment. being with her made him feel calm. he felt like he truly could be himself around her. though at times she was hard to read, that was what made her interesting. those were the last thoughts he had in his head before he drifted off into sleep was how grateful he was for her.

at the stillness of the room, yuki whispered "niki?"

she turned her head, a small smile making its way onto her lips as she saw the younger male. his lids were closed and he was breathing slow but evenly. his lips were slightly parted, quiet snores coming out from his mouth.

yuki was about to get up from the bunk bed before she felt his hand grip hers. she was startled at the sudden contact.

"stay," she looked back at the japanese boy who was still resting on the bed peacefully, eyelids still closed. yuki groaned before she fell back onto the bed.

"maybe a five-minute nap won't be so bad," she yawned, eyelids slowly dropping.

niki woke up about an hour later, letting out a yawn. there was an uncomfortably heavy feeling on his shoulder and arm. not wanting to move his head, niki glanced at yuki's sleeping figure beside him. her head was snuggled beside his neck. he could feel her breathing against his neck. he stared at her sleeping face, taking every detail of her facial feature. his breath hitched at the sight of her exposed collarbone due to the very oversized cardigan she was wearing. he let out a small shout, accidentally pushing yuki off his single bed.

yuki yelped at the sudden contact between her and the wooden floor which instantly woken her up. she groggily got up on her two feet, furrowing her brows at the younger male.

"i can't believe you just pushed me off the bed!" she exclaimed, adjusting her oversized top.

"s-sorry i didn't mean to do that," niki frantically apologized, hoping that yuki didn't take note of how red his ears were.

the sound of their dorm room opening along with chatters of loud males made them divert their attention.

"niki you idiot. if you ever need to talk to someone im here," she murmured (it sounded more like a threat to him). and with that the young female stormed out of their room, rubbing her sore arm.

"what's up with yuki?" queried jay who had just entered the room, removing his jacket while doing so.

"im not sure,"

jay raised his brows, watching the boy bite back a smile as he hid his face in the pillow.

"kids these days..."

"don't you guys think yuki is a great model?" the camera panned to sunoo who was watching yuki pose for their photoshoot like a proud mother.

"she is. she's really good at using her facial expressions," sunghoon added, giving a thumbs up to the camera.

the camera then turned to yuki who was currently having her solo photoshoot for the album. indeed like sunghoon mentioned, she was really good at using her facial expressions. the way she gazed at the camera and played around with her hair was so...enthralling.

(the camera then cuts to sunghoon and sunoo just staring at yuki. for like three minutes straight).

yuki stood in between niki and jake, all of them getting ready with their poses until the sound of the fog machine turned on, startling the trio.

"don't mind the fog, just keep your attention to the camera," said the director, making the members focus back on the camera.

yuki however, couldn't stop coughing from the fog, along with jake, her eyes too were getting dry.

"oh-my-god im so sorry," she spoke in between coughs, covering her hand with her mouth.

niki glanced at her worriedly, "are you okay? do you need water?"

"yeah im fine. i just hope he didn't take any photos of me mid cough,"

the seven members of enhypen were in the dance studio, gathered around the table in the middle of the room. on the said table were a cake and party decorations.

"sunoo, i can feel your hair against my neck, move!" whined the female. she was decorating the vanilla cake using a chocolate pen the bakery had given them. according to everyone in the room, she had the neatest handwriting.

"eek sorry!" he sheepishly apologized taking a step back and fixing his party hat.

once done decorating the cake with little hearts and smiley faces and a birthday message, yuki took a step back, satisfied. she placed her hands on her hips, watching as niki and jay placed candles on the decorated cake.

"i hope heeseung doesn't drop the cake like last time," chortled sunghoon who was goofing around with jake, doodling on heeseung's birthday hat.

"i'll still eat it anyways," grinned yuki, reminiscing when they planned a birthday surprise on heeseung's birthday. to their dismay, the cake toppled over the cake box (which was a somewhat weird occurrence in the industry). nevertheless, that didn't stop the members, specifically yuki, from eating the cake. although she did get a stomach ache the next day.

"heeseung's coming, quick everyone in positions!" whispered jungwon, switching off the lights.

the seven members shared a few giggles, standing in their dark with party hats on their heads. the sounds of heeseung's footsteps grew louder and once he stepped into the room,

"happy birthday to you,

happy birthday to you~

happy birthday to heeseung,

happy birthday to you~"

the members guided heeseung to the middle of the table, niki helping heeseung with wearing his party hat. a smile was plastered onto the eldest face. he definitely knew that this surprise was coming (but being the person he was he acted like he couldn't hear them arguing about the party hats from the bathroom).

the eight figures were sat around the campfire, just finished eating their dessert which was roasted marshmallows. the warm fire from the wood was just what they needed to warm themselves from the cold temperature of the night.

yuki was sat in between niki and sunghoon, her black puffer being two sizes way too big for her. but she didn't mind it, she was freezing cold.

"remember the letters you wrote earlier? we'll be reading them out loud now," stated the director as the staff handed them the letters they had written in their spare time.

the youngest member, niki, read his letter out loud first.  yuki was astonished as to how much he grew in such a short time. his korean improved well too. she watched him with endearment as he read his letter.

"good job niki," she smiled to him, giving a thumbs up in which he returned.

after all the members had recited their letters, finally, it was yuki's turn. everyone had their focus on yuki, making her slightly nervous.

"don't...look at me like that please," she stuttered, tearing her gaze away from her members and directing it to the letter she wrote. the female cleared her throat.

"to, the members of enhypen. i know that we all came across a rocky start in the beginning but i think that if that never happened, we wouldn't be the way we are today. i am very grateful that i am able to debut and befriend you all. i have learned so much from everyone so i'd firstly like to say thank you. during the times where i feel alone, i remember that you guys always have my back. to jay and jake, thank you for putting up with my corny english jokes. heeseung, please stop hogging all the ramen from our pantry. sunghoon, thank you for always being patient with me. sunoo, i hope we can continue having our weekly facials together. to our youngest niki, i can't wait to watch you grow. and to jungwon, thank you for everything you've done for our group," yuki paused from her speech, chuckling a bit that they were listening to yuki so intently, "i hope that we can continue to grow as a group. there are many things out there for us. it may be too early to say i love you but um i appreciate you all,"

"yuki, you're going to make me cry," jake joked, resting back into his chair and clutching his chest.

"i think jungwon's actually crying now," pointed out heeseung, the members turning to face their leader.

jungwon sniffled, fanning the air, "it's the smoke i swear!"

"we will protect our princess no matter what," jay smoothly said, sending a wink to the younger female who snorted in response.

"wait yuki so you don't love us?" gasped sunoo dramatically, a pout forming on his lips.

"w-what no? i didn't say i didn't," the female stuttered, waving her hands in the air in denial.

"so you do love us?" sunghoon raised his brow.

the female's cheeks grew pink, "u-um no? but yes? i don't know how to say it...i...um" yuki turned her head away, huffing, "you guys are annoying."

"yuki loves us!"

♫ ykwim? ; yot club

jay was usually the first member out of the males to wake up in the morning. the tired boy exited his room, scratching his nape as he yawned. he blinked twice, allowing the sunlight to flood his vision as he winced at the brightness. he walked over to the kitchen, furrowing his brows. the pans were exactly as it was last night. nothing had been brought out. there was no smell of meat, or bread being toasted. breakfast wasn't served.

panicked, jay hurriedly rushed over to her dorm room. his knuckles met contact with the door, knocking it a few times.

"yuki? are you still asleep?" he asked, leaning his ear against the door to hear anything. but to no avail, did he hear anything. more panicked, he knocked on the door a few times again. the sound of jay knocking onto yuki's dorm room made his members wake up from their slumber.

"hyung, what are you doing?" questioned niki, trudging in his sleep. jay furrowed his brows in deep confusion and worry.

all the seven males were gathered in the living room, nearby yuki's room where jay was standing. slightly confused as to why he was knocking on her door.

"is yuki not awake yet?" asked jake, eyes glancing at the dining table and realizing that there wasn't any food.

"i don't think she's here."

the seven boys exchanged glances with one another.

"move aside," at the eldest words, jay took a step back, allowing heeseung to twist the doorknob. once he opened the door to yuki's room, they were greeted with a room with a bed, wardrobe, and vanity. however, what concerned them was that there was nothing else. it was as if yuki had never been living there for the past month. the seven males flooded the room, sunoo instantly noticing the piece of paper that rested on the bed.

taking the course as the leader, jungwon picked up the letter, reading it out loud,

'hi everyone, it's me yuki.

well...who else would it be? after moments of long thinking and hesitation, i decided that this would be the best course of action to do. thank you so much for this past month. i have learned a lot from practices and participating in what idols usually do. it was a fun experience. over the months we knew each other, i made a lot of mistakes. i hope you all can forgive me for the times i have halted the practice sessions because of my carelessness and lack of talent. i did try my very best to the end. i know our group dynamic is awkward and i blame myself for it. perhaps i should've rejected si hyuk's offer in the first place. you all are a bunch of talented people. i really mean it. watching you all on i-LAND made me realize how large of a gap there was between us. the seven of you deserve to debut. and i think that it would've been best if you seven debuted without me.  it was meant to be that way.

i'll handle my resignation by myself and send my apologies to the staff for dropping out of the group.

it was a pleasure to meet you all.

~ sadako yuki wishes you all the best'

there was a moment of silence. a moment of realization.

yuki was officially dropping out of enhypen.

jungwon grasped the letter in his trembling hand. he knew that it was all his fault. his fault that yuki felt so secluded from the group. his fault that yuki felt this way. his fault that their group had an argument last night.

he shouldn't have said those harsh words to her.

before any of them could exchange words, the doorbell to their dorm rang twice. hopeful that it was somehow yuki, they all sprinted out of the room with heeseung taking the lead to open the door.

however, once he opened the door, it was not yuki who he was greeted with.

but his senior.

"beomgyu? what are you doing h-"

"where the hell is yuki?" he asked with panic. he was breathless. presumably from running around the hybe building and searching for enhypen's dorm.

heeseung furrowed his brows, "how do you know yuki?"

they allowed beomgyu to enter the dorm room as he tried to steady his breathing.

"we were close friends during our trainee years remember?" beomgyu's eyes flickered to the seven males in front of him, "yuki slept in our dorms last night but when we woke up, she was gone. yeonjun tried calling her phone but she hasn't picked up. im assuming that her phone died,"

"she's not in our dorm either. she left this letter saying that she's resigning," jungwon handed beomgyu the letter yuki had written while the senior ran his hands through his hair in frustration.

"she didn't tell me anything about resigning." cursed beomgyu, skimming through the letter as fast as he could.

"we can't just let her leave," everyone turned their heads to the youngest in the room.

"it was partially our mistake that yuki decided on leaving. we should take the responsibility to find her and bring her back," jungwon bit his lip, feeling probably the guiltiest in the room.

"damn right you will," beomgyu switched his phone on, realizing he had a few missed calls from his managers and fellow groupmates, "god this is the worst timing ever. i have to prepare for an interview for today,"

"you all better bring yuki back," he sternly said before dashing out their dorm.

"i've never seen beomgyu like this," spoke heeseung, recalling how worry was basically plastered all over his face.

"doesn't matter. our main priority now is that we have to find yuki,"

jake shivered at the coldness, pulling his jacket closer to his body. he looked around his surroundings, realizing that it was getting late.

"do you see her yet?" he asked jay. the american shook his head in response as he checked the time on his apple watch.

"isn't that yuki?" niki pointed out to the park not too far from them.

the blonde-haired female was sitting on a swing with her sanrio luggage bag beside her. in front of her was a white cat which reminded her of her own little cat in the apartment she shared with her family. oh, how she missed her cat so bad.

"yuki," at her name, the female's head perked up. the cat she was previously playing with had run away. she was too engrossed with the cat in her own world that she didn't hear the sound of footsteps walking towards her.

she blinked back in surprise at the figures in front of her, "oh um...hi," she awkwardly greeted them, playing with the ends of her sweater.

"did you resign already?" sunghoon asked, noticing her shivering figure. she must've been outside for a while, he thought.

the female bit her lip, "not yet. i just needed some time for myself,"

jungwon felt slightly relieved that she hadn't resigned yet. which meant that she was still a part of ENHYPEN for the time being. he kneeled down in front of her, hands on his lap.

"yuki, we're sorry. all this time we've been unconsciously making you feel like an outcast. we all should've tried harder in befriending you. we didn't mean to make you feel so lonely," his gaze returned to yuki, eyes turning glossy, "i'm really sorry. for all the things i've said to you. for hurting your feelings. i haven't done my job properly as a leader. i should've ensured that you felt comfortable with us and acknowledged your troubles too,"

"we're really sorry yuki. we should've done something a while ago," heeseung apologized.

"we need you in enhypen. we want you in enhypen. and we want you to debut with us," continued jake, gazing at yuki tenderly.

"we'll all try our best to make you feel more comfortable with us," nodded sunoo.

"please come back to us noona," niki pleaded, a slight pink displaying on his cheeks.

before any of the seven males could add anything further, a melodic sound came out of yuki's mouth. laughter. her laugh wasn't too loud nor too quiet but just loud enough so that only they could hear her. her laughter and look of happiness were contagious, urging the males to smile too. after all, this was the first time they had heard her laugh.

"i'm sorry, it's just that you all look so silly kneeling down in front of me," she giggled, a hand covering her mouth (a habit she did when she laughs).

"a passerby might've thought we were offering prayers to you," joked jay, standing up from the ground and dusting the dirt from his joggers.

yuki fiddled with her fingers as she stood up from the swing, "i'll try my best to be a member of enhypen,"

the seven exchanged grins, glad knowing that they had brought her back.

"you're already a part of enhypen," sunghoon grinned, ear to ear to the girl.

yuki let out a gasp at the sudden contact, stumbling on her feet. sunoo had wrapped his arms around the girl's shoulder, attacking her with a hug.

"totally not fair that you got to hug her first,"

the six males took it upon themselves to tackle sunoo and the girl into a group hug, nearly bringing them all tumbling down in the park. it was their first group hug and it felt warm. slightly sweaty but warm.

"thanks for coming back, yuki."
