[fox-xx]

say no to this - kaeya x m!reader

==========

tw/contains: ooc cheater kaeya, cheating, oneshot based on a song (title of song is in the name), yelling, modern day genshin au in a way?, mild mention of sexual actions, use of explicit language (cussing.)

==========

lowercase is intended.

kaeya didn't know what he did at the time, and he completely hated himself for it. you were gone a trip with your friends jean and lisa, and he was lonely, so he talked up a drunk lady at the tavern while you were gone...

==========

word-count: 2235

==========

kaeya tried to gather his thoughts, his heart pounding in his chest. what was he doing? what would you do if you found out?

what would he do with his life, if you, his light, left over a mistake he shouldn't have done?

the door opening to your shared apartment didn't help, he wanted to run. to be given even two more minutes just to think.

"kae, i'm home!" you said, stepping into the empty house.

the way it was, it was unsettling. the feeling rose from the pit of your stomach, a feeling of dread.

kaeya on the other hand was freaking out. how? oh, barbatos, how was he supposed to forgive himself after what he had done? but he couldn't stop...you stepped into your shared bedroom. in fact, anything you two had was shared. the apartment, the rent to the owner, the furniture, the food, your hearts.

but your heart had broken, when you walked into the bedroom to be met with kaeya's bare back, on top of what you could only guess was a woman under him.

"kaeya...?" you said, not understanding the sight in front of you.

oh barbatos, why didn't he say no to this?

you stared at him, disbelief was the first thing that came to mind. why was he on top of someone else? in fact, why was there someone else in your bed?

"kaeya, why'd you stop?" the woman asked, not noticing you were frozen in place at the door.

tears pricked in your eyes as you realized they were connected, the way only him and you should've been. what was going on?

"[name]," he started, breaking that bond between the two.

you instinctively stepped back, once, twice. you couldn't respond to what he was doing at all when you had this scene in front of you.

the first thing that came to mind was to get away. to run, to flee away to catch your thoughts. however, what slipped from your mouth wasn't what you wanted to say.

"you're disgusting."

sure, it was what anyone would say, especially in a situation like this. but not you. you didn't want to say something like that, something to hurt your love.

but was he really your love? after what you've seen?

out of the corner of your eye, you saw the woman creep out of bed and start to change back into the clothes that were on the floor. you only watched as kaeya tried to gather some words to say, to attempt to help the situation.

"[name]... let me explain."

"'explain'?" you repeated with a scoff. "how do you expect to 'explain' this?"

kaeya had to be honest; he had no idea. his shoulders drooped as he didn't have a reply, as you continued talking. you didn't know what was coming out of your mouth, but in the back of your mind, you wanted it to sting him. to sting him so bad. but why? you wanted to resolve it as much as he did.

"how do you explain to me that you were on top of a woman, touching her in ways that you sure as hell shouldn't be doing...?" you asked, in a harsh tone. "i'm sure i already understand most of what you were getting at."

technically, yes. but kaeya couldn't admit that. it would hurt his pride.

his pride? it was getting the best of him right now. he only knew he wanted you to believe different from what you saw. even though that was all there was to it.

he just slept with a girl from work a few times because he was lonely. kaeya admitted it to himself, it's as bad as you make it sound. you were only gone for a little, and yet he took advantage of that.

you were always worried he didn't love you, as he would openly tell you about his relationships at work. it was nice to know, though, that he had many who were fond of him where he spend most of his days.

"you don't." was the first thing he replied with. he felt exposed, physically and ideally. "you don't understand what i'm doing."

"you're sleeping with someone." you stated, staring dead into his eyes (or eye?). "because what, are you tired of me? you missed me? this isn't how i expected to be greeted when i came home."

"did you expect a warm welcome?" kaeya shot back, rubbing his temple. "i hope you realize you came home late. what is it, 9:00? [name], if you're gone for that long i'd like at least for you to say you're coming home."

"so you can get away with these types of things? to be able to sleep with whoever you want from your workplace? how do i even know you aren't sleeping with your best friend?" you said, taking a confident step forward.

the pounding in his chest moved to his head, he didn't like seeing you pissed. especially at him. but kaeya couldn't shield himself from what you were saying. because most of it was true.

"did you miss the feeling of a cunt around you?" you said, stabbing him and yourself where it hurt. you were most insecure about that, and his sweet nothings he would say would always make you feel better.

maybe they were truly just nothings?

"excuse me?" kaeya said, his face scrunching up in anger, confusion. "what are you getting at by saying that?"

"i'm saying you're nothing but a lying bastard." you spat, tears threatening to spill from your eyes. you glared at him with hatred and hurt, hoping, praying that it was obvious to get it through his dense head.

"so i'm the bastard?" kaeya said, a tired laugh coming out of his mouth. "you're the one who left me alone this long. did you think i would love you for this long?"

they truly were nothings.

"me trying to keep us stable, to be able to pay off bills and everything because your crummy job won't help, is the reason you cheat on me?" you replied, before looking at the woman directly. you couldn't help but give her a sharp glare as well.

"honestly, i don't understand you." kaeya said, "it was for fun. for no feelings whatsoever, no strings attached. why are you reacting like this?"

"because you promised you'd never do this again!" you shouted at him, at his face.

"then it's your fault for not keeping your end of the deal!" kaeya said, threatening to do much more than hit you with his words.

"how am i responsible for your choices?!" you retorted, crying freely. you let the tears flow, crocodile tears or not.

"get out."

"what?" you said, but you had heard him clearly.

"i said get out, [name]." kaeya repeated.

you stepped back again, shaking your head a bit. "i can't believe i settled for someone like you."

"i probably should've settled for a woman like you've said to so many times."

you had already stepped out of the house, barely able to escape the smell of booze and wine.

==========

it had been three days since you and kaeya fought. you had taken 'shelter' at diluc's place instead of your own. you felt indebted to him for allowing you to stay, even though he was your best friend who supported you two's relationship.

you were currently pouring yourself a cup of your favorite energizer for the start of the day. taking a drink from it, you looked over at the couch to see the sleeping redhead. since he didn't have a guest room, he lent you his room while he slept on the couch. too tired from crying to even fight back you reluctantly agreed.

you decided to cook something, ignoring all the texts on your phone from kaeya. you dared to read a few, but never bothered to reply to him. always leaving it on read.

anything ranging from 'im sorry' and 'let me explain', is putting lightly what you had received from him.

you couldn't stop thinking about it, replaying what happened in your mind over and over.

you turned on the stove to start cooking breakfast, yawning from drowsiness. maybe you should hear him out...

no. why would you if you fully accepted that you two wouldn't be able to be what you originally were?

you heard a groan from either the creaky couch or diluc, keeping back a laugh from the birds' nest of hair he had.

"good morning." you said, a small chuckle escaping your mouth.

"don't even." diluc replied, pouring himself some coffee. "what are you cooking?"

"something." you said, focusing on trying not to let the eggs stay on the pan too long.

after a short while of silence, or rather after diluc finished his coffee, he looked at you. "when are you going to talk with him again?"

you froze for a moment. you had been trying to figure out how to even strike up a conversation with him in the first place.

and how you were too tired from coming home to understand he may have been drunk.

"probably never." you replied bitterly, "i don't want to talk to him."

"you can't ignore him forever." diluc said, tying up his hair. "let me finish the breakfast."

"oh, no no! it's fine..." you try to say, but are gently moved aside by him, grabbing the pan and spatula.

"i'm the one taking care of you, it's nothing." he said.

you sighed and couldn't deny him, mumbling a small 'thank you' before finishing your own start up for the day.

"diluc, thank you. really." you said, "for just being my best friend. you've been there for me for as long as i can remember."

"don't get all sappy with me all of a sudden." diluc replied, giving you a deadpan look. "it makes me think you're going to say something unexpected."

you laughed softly, "you're right. it's like a cliché sudden-confession from your best friend."

diluc tensed as you heard the doorbell ring, and you excused yourself to go get it.

you look through the window next to the door to see the all-too-familiar blue hair.

"...he's here..." you said quietly to yourself, immediately backing away from the door. you go back to diluc.

"diluc, it's..."

"here, just keep the stove on for now." he replied, not even needing you to explain before he went to the door.

diluc opened the door a bit, peeking out to confirm it was, indeed, kaeya at his doorstep.

there was a light drizzle outside, and you saw a sorrow expression on your questionable lover's face.

"kaeya? what are you doing here?" diluc asked, slightly opening the door more. only enough so he couldn't see you from outside.

"is [name] here...?" kaeya asked. he seemed out of breath for whatever reason.

"[name]? no, he isn't." diluc lied, which you let out a quiet sigh of relief. "why? did something happen?"

"yeah..." kaeya said, "i thought, because you two are close, he'd be here."

diluc nodded in understanding, "well, i haven't seen him in a bit. mind explaining what's going on?"

"uhm, is it possible i could come in?" kaeya asked, rubbing the nape of his neck. "it would be too much to explain if we stood here..."

you hurried and turned off the stove, hiding your cup, knowing diluc would let him in. you then slunk behind the counter. but what diluc said surprised you.

"you can just give me a short explanation." diluc replied, "i'm a busy man and i need time to finish my breakfast."

"right, right..." kaeya said, laughing quietly to attempt to lighten the intensity between the two. "but, we had a fight. to put plainly, i don't think he wants to talk to me, but i need to talk to him about it."

diluc sighed, he had heard the whole story from you, but he hoped to get some information on why he would do this to you.

"i see, and was it a petty fight or no?"

"it was all my fault." kaeya confessed, "i fucked up really badly and i want to apologize. i would understand if he didn't want to talk to me anymore after, or even break up."

"it was that bad?" diluc asked, and kaeya responded with a nod. "i see. i wish you luck for finding him, i'll tell you if i see him. [name] is more likely to seek help from zhongli if he ever needed advice or comfort rather than me."

it was true, zhongli was much better at the comfort thing than diluc was, but you appreciated he took you in no question as he was closest to you and kaeya's place.

"thank you... i'll see you." kaeya said, nodding slightly before walking off.

diluc closed the door as soon as kaeya turned away, and looked at you with a stern gaze.

"you're quite troublesome, aren't you?" diluc said, as you only smiled a bit.

"thank you for playing along..." you replied, sighing softly.

you saw a smile twitch onto his face, which you could feel yourself smile even wider.

behind that smile, you were wondering how to even make amends with kaeya. yet as you and diluc shared breakfast, you didn't bother wondering.

maybe it just wasn't meant to be. you should've said no after knowing what you'd get into.

when reader is sick hc's

finally posting writing here so true

n e ways okay so i’m brainrotting about the genshin charas taking care of their s/o’s when they’re sick 🥺 and now i'm feeling sick, sigh

okay here u go, have some hc's that are kinda sorta long and by that i mean 2.5k- i haven't proofread this bc it's 4am and im going to BED but if i write for any other chara's i'll post a second part <3 mwah

tags: gn!reader, diluc x reader, kaeya x reader, jean x reader, lisa x reader, albedo x reader, dainsleif x reader, tartaglia x reader, ohm ambros x reader, sulien ambros x reader, soft bean hours

diluc

is not working or traveling when his partner is sick

absolutely makes them soup and hot tea and drinks

he’s trying to make them food but he’s not the best cook so he’s asking adelinde for help

absolutely asks jean, barbara, and ohm for help while his partner is sleeping but he’s so awkward LMAO

was absolutely frantic the first day he found out his partner was sick tho, he made them come over to the winery so they could sleep there and he can take care of them <3

absolutely lied about what room was his so they slept in his bed

“hmm this guest room is so furnished diluc are all your rooms like this” and no, no they are not, this room is his, bestie

diluc slept on a sofa in his bedroom and did work on the table that was supposed to be for flowers. kinda stressed over abyss order locations but was more worried ab his partner being okay so he was distracted

he just put the flowers on his nightstand for his partner to see when they woke up <3

gives his partner forehead kisses because they won’t let him kiss them on the lips and he gives them the gentlest cheek kisses while they sleep

also gives his partner his clothes to wear <3

cuddles them and reads to them when they’re awake and TEMPLE KISSES OH MY GOD

kaeya comes over because he’s worried his brother and his brother’s s/o haven’t been seen in a little while

n e way, diluc gets sick after his partner gets better and they nursed each other back to health

kaeya

like diluc, he took off work so he could take care of his s/o i,mediately after he found out they were sick

wouldn’t force them to stay at his place tho, he’d probably let them recover in their own place

but he might make them go to the kof hq or the cathedral just so they can be taken care of by a proper healer

he absolutely soothes their fevers and stuff w cryo and also the man can heal himself w his elem skill ofc he can fix someone if he tries hard enough <3

he gives kisses no matter how much his partner says not to but he’ll also give them butterfly kisses so it’s soft moments too~ sigh, ur too cute alberich

asks ohm and barbara and albedo and lisa for potions and such to help his partner feel better but he’s really lowkey so he doesn’t seem SUPER worried

he just hates seeing his partner not feeling so well </3

refreshes his partner’s vase of flowers at their bedside every day

brings home work so he can watch over his partner. he can’t cook super well either so he asks for help and brings stuff home from good hunter too

jean was okay to let kaeya off of work and diluc would never admit it (man practically swore everyone to secrecy smh) but he helped take up some of kaeya’s duties in his stead

and kae, the alcoholic, didn’t even drink while his partner was sick bc he was lowkey worried they would need his help w smth and he didn’t want to be drunk just in case <3

many cuddles despite protests of getting him sick <3

jean

absolutely uses her healer skills to make her partner feel better

panicked when they were still sick and thought it was her fault </3 she asked barbara and ohm for help and they just told jean to relax a bit bc her partner was sick and it wasn’t going to be a quick fix

wanted to take off work but didn’t, so she just brought her work with her

kaeya and ohm very kindly took up her other duties where she had to leave so she could be w her partner

her partner is staying in the kof hq where they get access to ohm and barbara comes to visit <3 but also so that jean can sleep comfortably enough close by bc you cannot tell me this woman does not sometimes sleep in her office or the library and barely makes it to the kof dormitories sometimes

she’s so worried the entire time, she’s probably got a few gray hairs and a new frown line smh

she has clothes that aren’t her work clothes???? it’s so foreign seeing her in stuff like pajamas. you didn’t even know jean owned pajamas

jean sets them up in her bed at home (yeah she has a place outside of the kof hq??? it’s surprising) but it’s a big bed so they can rest and she’ll have the lamp on her side on while she sits up and does work

absolutely dotes on them. she’s good at making foods that make them feel better, she’s just a good healer that way <3

albedo, klee, venti, kaeya, lisa, and ohm all come over to check on jean and co and make sure everyone is doing okay <3 lots of food brought

if jean was asked to sing to her partner normally, she probably wouldn’t bc she’d probably get embarrassed but i think she probably sounds v good and venti would give her his lyre to try out a musical instrument too. but also she’d read to her partner and they’d probably fall asleep together uwu

lisa

works part time hours at the library so she can go visit her s/o

probably asks them to stay at the kof hq for easier access to medical assistance and plus she’s almost always there

“cutie” but worried and very 🥺 (pleading emoji)

makes soup and potions and reads to her partner until they fall asleep

also super playful omg she’s still got a smile on and is full of affection while she walks her fingers up her partner’s arm to their face so she can cup their cheek

she’ll make her partner laugh and smile and blush even when they’re sick, but she makes them laugh until they cough sometimes and immediately feels so bad

jean, barbara, kaeya, albedo and ohm all come to visit with different foods and soups and medicines and such

klee comes knocking and gives lisa some good fisherman’s toast and asks lisa’s s/o if they want to hug dodoco b/c that always makes klee feel better

purple roses galore, lisa has them in her partner’s room and they’ve got a potion to make the. uh. sniffer? to make the sniffer feel better. don’t ask me how, idk but she would find a way to make them physically feel better with flowers

reads to her partner ofc, and she tells them stories ab her own life and time at sumeru sans the crazies

worried looks when her s/o is sleeping but also the softest smiles when they wake up pls-

albedo

cutest lil frown on his face when he finds out his partner is sick

immediately they are taken home and he’s testing to confirm what’s wrong w them and what he can do to speed up their recovery

he’s more distracted than usual at work but he’s coming over to your place all the time w what paperwork he can do

also sketches his partner while they don’t know. he’s got lots of beautiful candids of his partner sleeping, looking out the window, falling asleep, reading, even drinking water. he’s made the most mundane things look captivating

kaeya and ohm come to check on albedo when he doesn’t show up for work after a few days and it’s bc he’s taking care of his s/o with food and soup and alchemical potions and shit. and when kae and ohm come in, they find his partner opening the door wrapped in a blanket while albedo is asleep cuddling the pillow they left bc he stayed up the night before making soup and reading to them

klee has camped out on his partner’s couch, she helps w the cooking too~ she absolutely lets them hug dodoco and gives them a treasure to feel better too LOL

many kisses from klee and albedo, and they also go out to get treats for albedo’s partner too

domestic albedo cooking in his partner’s kitchen and for once it isn’t some alchemical potion that he might blow up the stove with

tartaglia

takes off work entirely but BOY OH BOY is he stir crazy smh

brings his partner to his apartment to rest <3

he’s so worried ab his s/o that he makes all the sick ppl food the first day, orders from wanmin restaurant when his partner wants smth different, and also gets toys and such to entertain them otherwise

also reads to his partner but, again, he gets stir crazy after a while

absolutely does workouts and katas in the living room and phew shirtless tartaglia working out? gets the heart rate up for sure ahem

rushes to his partner tho omg- need soup? water? a trip to the bathroom? another blanket? he goes to them the MOMENT he hears them moving around. absolutely dotes on them <3

his family knows ab his partner and he’s probably written letters ab them being sick~ his family sent snezhnayan herbs and flowers and medicines and such

zhongli comes around because he wants sugar daddy!tartaglia with tea and medicine from bubu pharmacy. hu tao is in tow with well wishes and a “hope i don’t find you at work!” which is. a little worrying because aren’t you just a little sick-

many kisses from tartaglia because he is Needy and he’ll absolutely get sick from cuddling his partner while they sleep

also he’ll probably just like. envelop his partner while they sleep. they’re all cuddled into him and he’s actually so warm it’s nice bc they’re cold w a fever and he’s living for comforting them

he’s so worried tho, he’s got the frowny face and he’s so adorable but he just doesn’t want his partner to feel sick

dainsleif

the man camps in ruins, he’s going to his partner’s house smh

he doesn’t go into the church either LOL so expect him in his partner’s home making dinner and doing their grocery shopping thanks

he would get ohm and barbara to come over tho <3 “fix them please” but also “how can i fix them”

is so dead set on making sure his partner takes their medicine at the right times, he’s so soft for them and them alone

cooks soup and old recipes he barely remembers from khaenri’ah. he doesn’t really get sick, so he doesn’t remember these ones too clearly. deffo brings back old memories he’d long forgotten

reads to his partner and tells them old stories of how the world used to be, his travels, gives them the gossip on a certain khaenri’ahn but doesn’t give away the name

ohm comes over with medicine and lollipops bc dain is so unlikely to go to the cathedral to get barbara smh

but also dain, so self-sufficient, is unlikely to want to ask for help, so ohm just goes to help anyway

dain with the old khaenri’ahn lullabies and tucking his partner into his arms and singing quietly while he holds them and rocks them to sleep

dain is immortal, he’s giving his partner kisses bc “i’m immortal, ofc i won’t get sick”

he got sick

but his s/o nursed him back to health and then there were smooches the end

ohm ambros

the doctor with his ill lover oh my god

he’s frowny, he’s taking care of his partner at his home in springvale and his home clinic is open to everyone else. but everyone knows his partner is the first priority LOL

kaeya and albedo come over to see if ohm is okay or if his house needs to be checked up on. they’re wondering if he went on a last-minute expedition to sumeru and didnt tell them

diluc comes over too, he’s just checking up on his best friend but he’s also stealing a cherry lollipop smh. he heard from kae that ohm’s partner is sick tho, so he brings some soup and good food over from adelinde. he also brings some of his own specialty food tho, the once upon a time in mondstadt <3

sulien sending letters to his big brother to see if his brother’s s/o is okay

ohm is also just super protective of his partner, there are not many people who come into his life who he loves and lets in in the first place. he’s absolutely trying to heal them with his own vitality, so their recovery is much shorter than initially expected

barbara also comes over w jean to check up on ohm and co, complete w a goody basket of soup, a teddy bear, flowers, and books

ohm reading to his partner <3 he’s got such a soothing voice even if his accent is wack LMAO. he’s reading stories and even his paperwork because just his presence is comforting

he puts his hands on his partner’s forehead to soothe the fever goodbye

ohm will not sing for his s/o simply bc he doesn’t think he sounds v good. and he probably doesn’t but it would be so cute to hear him try and please ohm? 🥺

n e way i want smooches idc if i’m sick KISS ME OHM AMBROS

sulien ambros

when he finds out his partner is sick, the man blinks like twice and then suggests so calmly that they go to his apartment in liyue

man does not sleep normally, he’s just going to nurse his partner back to health and read during their recovery. fruit tart can cover his duties for him <3

sulien cooks for his partner tho, he’s making soup and stuff and getting medicine from bubu’s pharmacy. he’s also picking up books on the way home but some of them are to be read to his partner so it’s okay-

like tartaglia, sulien works out while his partner rests and goes to them if he hears them moving around. he’s reading to his partner and not so frowny, but the slightest furrow of this man’s brow is already such a big expression of his concern <3

sends letters to ohm asking for advice ab how to help his partner feel better. ohm just sends a letter back with “i’m coming” and shows up within the day LMAO

reads to his partner, and the monotony of his voice is soothing and lulls them to sleep. he just looks at them affectionately (well affectionate for him) and presses a kiss to their forehead before finishing the story on his own and in his head

tartagalicious comes over and brings food, flowers and a teddy bear with some of sandrone’s paperwork but he sends a smile to sulien’s partner with some well wishes

scara comes over too just to visit and check to see where sandrone is, but scara is a grumpy bean so he just says “feel better” all brooding and like it’s a command to one of the fatui subordinates LOL

sulien like ohm uses his cold hands to soothe his partner’s fever and also gives them forehead kisses <3

GOT7 Reaction: You tell them you’re bisexual

For a special little anon. Sorry it took a bit to make, hope you enjoy it <3 ~ Admin Lei

(Gifs are not mine)

I hope you like it darling!- Admin Kae

Mark

Mark would be adorable about it. He’d be an absolute sweetheart. *cough Markson cough*

“Mark I’ve been wanting to tell you something.”

“What is it?

“I’m bisexual…”

“Wait really? Me too!”

“What?”

“What? You thought Markson was a joke?”

Jackson walks into the room at that very moment and, with a quick survey, sighs exaggeratedly.

“I knew this day would come. You finally told her” He spoke solemnly.

You looked between the two of them, watching Jackson’s sultry stares and Mark’s reciprocating lip bites, before grabbing Mark’s wrist and pulling him toward the back of the house.

“Where are you taking my husband?!” Jackson called after you.

“The bed, the floor, the wall and wherever else in between”.

Jaebum

This boy would be absolutely chill about it. While also showing you just how much he was glad you chose him.

“So you like girls as well?”

You nodded nervously, fiddling with the hem of your hoodie as you watched his reaction carefully. He gave you a once over before smiling sweetly.

“Okay”.

His cool exterior never faltered and you watched him carefully with a raised eyebrow.

“So you’re absolutely fine with this?”.

He walked up to you, turning you around by your waist and pulling you into his frame.

“It doesn’t change the fact that you’re mine, right?” he asked huskily in your ear.

“It doesn’t” You breathed as his fingers trailed down the plane of your stomach.

“Good girl”

Jinyoung

Jinyoung would have figured it out way before you even told him. You’d actually be the one who is more surprised when he tells you he knows.

“I know” .

“You what now?” You asked, slightly bewildered. 

How did he know?

“Was it Bambam? It was Bambam wasn’t it? I’m going to fucking k-”.

 He cut off your ramblings with a short adorable laugh, slinging an arm around your shoulder and bringing your closer into his side.

 “I just knew princess. No one said anything” He says smiling.

You leaned into him with a contented and relieved sigh, your head against his chest.

 “So...you’re not mad?”.

 Jinyoung shook his head, before placing his hands on either side of your cheeks and kissing the tip of your nose. 

“Why would I be? I mean, we all know it isn’t a girl in here making you scream like that”.

Jackson

 He would actually get worried when you would tell him that you need to talk to him.

“What? Did I do something wrong? You’re not leaving are you?” He bombarded you with questions.

You grabbed his face, stilling him as well as catching his attention.

“No baby, god no. I just...I wanted to tell you that I...uh, I like girls...as well” your voice was low and timid.

He grabbed you, pulling you close to him eliciting a squeak from you.

“Thank God, I thought you were leaving me”.

Before you could answer, he leaned down slightly, throwing you over his shoulder and walking toward the bedroom. Through your giggles, you asked what he was doing.

“Showing you why you shouldn’t leave”.

“I said I wasn’t”

“I know what you said. But I have more competition now. So”

He paused, throwing you on the bed and quickly crawling between your legs and leaning down toward your ear, his voice a low rasp.

“I gotta up my game”.

Youngjae 

 Youngjae would be probably be in the studio when you decided to tell him. He’d be in front of the monitor, going over his vocals and making sure his voice was as strong as possible for his aghases when you decided to tell him.

“Really?” He asked, raising an eyebrow.

You nodded, biting your lip while you waited for his reaction. He sensed your nervousness, pulling away from the screen to move over to you and wrap his arms around your waist, placing his head on top of yours. He moved a finger under your chin, tilting your head up and leaning down to give you a sweet, sensual kiss.

“You’re not mad?” You asked in surprise.

He pulled you back over to where he was working, placing you on his lap and wrapping his arms around you tightly. He pressed a kiss to your cheek causing you to giggle.

“As long as I’m the one you’re next to when you wake up in the morning, it doesn’t bother me”.

Bambam

He would be all extra about it, teasing you at any and every turn but making sure that you knew you had his support at all times.

“So what about her?”

 You looked over toward the girl he was pointing at, giving her a once over before shrugging and turning forward to face him once more. 

“Not my type” You said offhandedly. 

“So what is your type?” He asked.

 You pretended to think before locking eyes with him, leaning over the table and  kissing him sensually. 

“Tall, loud and handsome” You whispered against his lips before going in for another kiss. 

He let out a low hm before pulling back and scanning your face. His eyes drifted off to the side, a mischievous glint in them when you had his full attention once more.

“What about her?” he whispered in your ear, his lips brushing the shell of it. 

 You turned to see one of the most gorgeous females you’ve ever encountered. Your breath hitched and he chuckled at your reaction. 

“So I take it that’s a yes?”. 

You nodded, not being able to take your eyes off of the gorgeous stranger. “That’s Lisa. She’s actually a friend of mine” Bam explained, causing your head to snap in his direction. 

“Introduce us” you rushed out excitedly.

 He pouted adorably. 

“I’m not introducing you to Lisa. You’ll leave me if I do” He whined adorably. 

“I’m not leaving you” You assured, placing a hand on his cheek.

“But, it doesn’t mean I can't window shop” You winked at him before standing and walking over toward Lisa.

Yugyeom

 Yugyeom would be more of a toned down version of Jackson I feel, whining about him having more competition.

“You what?” he whined, pouting adorably.

“I-is that bad?” you asked, putting your head down and allowing your hair to hide your expression.

Was he not okay with this? What if he didn’t accept you?

“No, no it’s just...I don’t need anymore damn competition” he huffed, pulling you to sit on his lap and nuzzling your neck.

You chuckled at his antics, brushing his hair back and kissing his forehead.

“You’re beautiful already jagi. I really don’t want to have to worry about two genders” He whined into your neck, accentuating his words with a heated kiss to the base of your neck.

“You have nothing to worry about baby. I’m all yours.”

So, I decided to make this blog post a bit more pictorial than literary since I have so many fabulous photos I want to share with you all from this remarkable day. I like to think of it as my photo diary through Paris… anyway….

WHAT I WORE:

Shoes–Nine West , Coat–Forever 21, Purse–Jules Kae, Dress – Eloquii, Tights–HUE

After window shopping around town we headed to the Louvre. We entered through the Jardin des Tuileries which even on the cloudiest of days was one of the most beautiful parks I’ve ever seen. The Jardin des Tuileries is a garden/park that surrounds the Louvre which was once the Palais Royal. Walking along the path that lead to the Louvre I loved seeing the street artists selling their work and this one man who I called “The Pigeon Man” herding his flock of pigeons as if he were choreographing a dance; The Pigeon Dance instead of the Chicken Dance! Haha. It was pretty cool to witness. Walking towards the arc that lead into the grounds of the Louvre my heart beat began getting faster and faster. I have wanted to come here my entire life, and seeing it in all of its glory felt unbelievably surreal. I simultaneously felts as if I was there before and if I had never been. (strange feeling) I kept having to ground myself to actually realize I was there. When we got to the campus we did what bloggers (cough cough, tourists) do naturally…took pictures and lots of them!

I AM THE BIGGEST KID AT HEART IN THE WORLD SO, I HAD TO BE THE ULTIMATE TOURIST…and talk photographs like these…

I’ve never been one to partake in ultra touristy activities when traveling. I prefer to do things as the locals do. But sometimes you just been to go all out and be the tourist your heart desires. I chose to act in the fashion at the Louvre. I’ve wanted to come here for as long as I could remember, mostly to see the art and witnessing Michelangelo’s portrait of a subtly smiling Mona Lisa. However, I couldn’t leave without taking photos by the pyramids and pond. Another Louvre photo moment that I needed to fulfill like a kid at Disney World taking a photo with Mickey Mouse, was standing on one of the platforms and pretending to touch the pyramid. (giggles) And, guess what?  I DID IT LIKE A PRO! (more giggles) I will be honest, being in a dress and trying to step up on the 4 foot pillar was not an easy task, getting down was even worse. But, it was probably really funny to watch. My favorite moment was when I pretended to act like a Degas ballerina because degas is my favorite artist. When at the Louvre….right? I will say however, to our surprise the Louvre was closed the day we went and I did not get to see the Mona Lisa or any other of the artwork I have been so excited to see. Oh Well, I’ll just have to go next time…

Seine, Musée d’Orsay, and Le pont des Arts (You know, the Lock Bridge!)

As we kept touring I really wanted to take a walk along the Seine!  I kept picturing myself as Leslie Caron in my all time favorite movie “An American in Paris” or as one of the characters in the Woody Allen movie, “Midnight in Paris“. It was really pretty to see the contrast of the fall clouds and bright colors of the trees reflecting off the river.  To my left was the Musée d’Orsay, another museum I really wanted to go to but did not have the time to on this trip. As we kept walking I asked my beau where the lock bride was and if we were near by. It just so happened that we were only a 7-10 minute walk from it so on we went in search of Le Pont des Arts (also known us Americans as the lock bridge) I knew they had taken most, if not all the locks off of the bridge a few months before my visit because of the weight of the locks destroying the infrastructure of the bridge (which is kind of scary) but I was happy to see that people still keep the tradition a live by locking their love to the bridge. It’s a pretty romantic gesture, if I do say so myself or maybe it is for a non-parisiene. I must add that Le Pont de Arts did have a very beautiful view of Paris. I needed a moment to rest so I just needed on the wall basking in the beauty of the Seine and thinking to myself, “Dara, you are actually here!”, as I did many, many, many times on this trip and thinking how much fun I was purely having so far with the company I was with. After, we walked back to the Jardin des Tuileries to head towards Champs Elysee and tumbled upon a part of the park that I kept asking about, but did not know how to explain at all, since I’ve only seen it in photographs! It was the nicest surprise and I was in pure awe! We stopped and sat on a bench for a little while to enjoy the parks surroundings and plan the rest of the evening. While sitting on the bench we were across from a group of teenage boys were all complaining about girls. Girls they were dating, girls they had crushes on, or girls that were giving them hard times about everything under the sun. It was really funny to see that the same teenage shenanigans happen all over the world. It put a smile on my face and I thought it precious. I wanted to interject with a joke but then realized they would have had zero idea what I was saying. I can understand a lot of french but I can’t speak very well….I’m learning, I’m learning!

Place De La Concorde (You know, where Ann Hathaway tossed her phone into the fountain at the end of The Devil Wears Prada! Yes, I went there, No I didn’t toss my phone!)

Okay my lovely readers, If you have gotten this far I am super impressed with you and you deserve a crescent! (giggles) So, there’s something that I’ve always wanted to do. The only person that really knew about this is my mom. I was a soon to be freshman at FIT when the movie The Devil Wears Prada came out and it was the best “Welcome to New York” movie that could have been made. Timing on this could not have been more perfect. So, you know at the end of the movie Andie and Miranda go to Paris for Paris Fashion Week and then Andie quits her job by throwing her ever so annoyingly ringing cell phone into the fountain? Well, I have always wanted to reenact this scene. I have no idea why, but I always found it super dramatic and funny at the same time! hmm? Anyway, as we walking through Les Jardin des Tuileries up to Les Place De La Concorde I started smiling so hard my face almost cracked. YOU GUYS!!! I CAN NO THROW MY CELL PHONE INTO THE FOUNTAIN!!!!! Okay, well not really! I thought about faking it for a picture but then realized with my luck, I would have accidentally dropped it and then in that moment I would kissed goodbye my entire day…trip…year…life? (giggles) But taking photos by the fountain was just as good for me. There are many of them in the Place De La Concorde that are larger than life and utterly beautiful. I couldn’t get enough and did not want to leave this area! It was so beautiful and I can’t wait to go back again! Maybe this time I’ll take an old cell phone and reenact the scene…I just don’t want to get arrested in doing so! (hahahaha)

Avenue Montaigne – CHANEL, CELINE, GUCCI…OH MY!

As we walked and walked and walked some more we landed at Avenue Montaigne – the most glorious street any fashion enthusiast would have couture cardiac arrest at. It was like being on Madison Ave and Rodeo Drive but with more polish and panache! There is nothing more I can really say about this street other that it is absolutely beautiful. I had fun exploring the different designer shops and being treated to personal tours by a sales person of what the hottest selling items were and what the hottest items from the last collections were. It was rather special and I enjoyed every minute of it. Even thought I have been to these stores in the states, something about going into a Chanel in Paris amplified its ambiance to me! It felt more authentic. If only I could have gone on a shopping spree, but hey…a girls gotta eat right? Or maybe I should have cashed in all my money for that Chanel I had been eyeing….oh well! (hahaha)

TOUR EIFEL – SEE IT SPARKLE AND SHINE LIKE CHAMPAGNE

Avenue Montaigne was beautiful but it was almost 6pm and the shops were closing. So on we went towards more fun. We walked around a lot and as it got darker I started to see a very bright beam circling the sky. I knew at that moment it was the Eiffel Tower. My beau told me that’s where we were walking to and I was so surprised. He wanted me to see it for my very first time at night. At this point we were about a 15-20 minute walk from there and my feet and legs were on fire from walking around for almost six hours non stop. So, we decided to hop in a taxi because there was no way I’d be able to enjoy myself the rest of the night if I kept walking. While in the taxi we passed the Moulin Rouge and the Arc de Triumph. While at a traffic light I was asking the cab driver not to move since I needed to take a picture of it. BY beau was laughing at me because I completely forgot that the taxi driver probably didn’t speak English and I was just chatting away saying “PLEASE DO NOT MOVE THE CAR!!! I NEED TO GET THIS PHOTO!! OKAY…..ONE MORE….OKAY…We’re good you can go now!!” But I think he got the point since I was so loud! But hey, I need to get my shot, which I did. Thank you taxi driver for stopping and probably thinking I am a crazy American! For the rest of the car ride, I was not allowed to look out the window and had to sit facing inward so I would not see the Eiffel Tower by car. It was a very sweet gesture and I am so glad my beau did this. So for the rest of the car ride I was basically sitting side-saddle, but it didn’t stop there. As we got out of the taxi I had to walk the entire way with my eyes closed. That was pretty terrifying since the streets were packed and knowing me, I’d trip, fall and break my ankle. (laughs) But my beau held my hand, lead the way allowing me to arrive at the Eiffel Tower in one piece. As we got to the pavilion after walking up a few steps blindly, he told me to close my eyes and stand here. He had me stand there for what felt like 10 minutes but I know it was only about 30 seconds. He then said, “OPEN YOUR EYES!!” and so I did. The Eiffel tower was sparkling in full effect and it was the most magical moment thus far in Paris! We stopped to take some pictures and walked closer and closer to the Eiffel Tower till we were standing underneath it. On the way I found a carousel that I just had to stop and look at. I love carousels. At this time it was around 8PM and the line to go to the top was too long so we decided to go on a river cruise instead. Although freezing, was so much fun and a nice way to enjoy the city of lights by water. Towards the middle of the tour we got glasses of champagne. Yes, it was really nice however I am really glad my beau was the first to state how horrible it tasted. I didn’t want to be rude. But we both laughed then tossed it into the Seine! Yuck! I never knew Champagne could taste so terrible. You live and learn, I guess. (haha) On the boat there was a concession stand that sold food that had a sign for Manhattan Hot Dogs this made me giggle. Taking in all of the sights and being educated about the monuments being shown was a real treat and I am so happy we did this.

DINNER FOR TWO –

Afterwards we headed to dinner, that was super comforting and delicious! I don’t remember the name of the restaurant but it felt just like home. It had a very young professional, after work scene that was really refreshing and the food was really good, too! We sat there for a long time talking about the day and so much more. After one of the groups of friends decided to close the place down with a dance party that was very fun to watch. We could have joined if our feet weren’t hurting us so much! It was now about 1am and our tired feet needed to get to sleep because we were heading to DISNEY LAND in the morning…..
