Tired~

Paring: Kim Hanbin x FemReader

summary~ after along tiering day you thought to visit your boy friend Hanbin at work but found him asleep in his studio. (OVERWORKED)

Genre~ Fluff ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ & Angst (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

song~ B.I - Flow Away (because his cough is a masterpiece)

시...작....

“여보세요? Hi baby, can I come to the studio? I'm bored..”

“ of course when you are here let me know..” He replied. “ Okay, Hanbinie, anything you want? Ice Cream? Or maybe coffee?” you asked and to that he preferred coffee because he was at work. You loved visiting your boyfriend's studio and giving him feedback on his music and most of the time you were the first one to listen to his new music. You know Hanbin works really hard on his music and maybe too hard and is very dedicated to his work, and you try your best to be there and support no matter what.

7:00pm your alarm struck and you got up from the nap you took and realized you were late for your visit to hanbin’s studio. You quickly pack your things which are literally your phone and wallet and head to the nearest café to get the coffee he told you he’d like. After you got the coffee you took a cab to the studio because hanbin took the car with him in the morning. As soon as you reached the building you ran to the elevator and headed to his second home, his studio.

“ Hanbinah sorry for the del…” you paused after you found your boyfriend passed out in the sofa because he was tired. You carefully placed the two coffees you bought on the table where his laptop was still on. And decided to wake your tired baby up, “baby.. Wake up, I brought you coffee” you said, tapping his shoulders. As always hanbin being married to sleep wasn't very easy to wake up. You planted sweet kisses all over his face until he opened his eyes wondering what was going on. “ oh! You're here? Why are you latee” he mumbled, which was barely understandable. “ I brought us coffee babyyyy wake up and then we can go home okay?”

He got up and pecked your lips. ”thank you princess” You gave him a quick smile and got up to hand him his coffee. “ If you were tired, why didn't you come back? “ you spoke while you walked back with the two cups. As he received his cup he said “well I still have more work so I don't even know if I'm coming with you”. You've always been respectful of his work and time but you cared more about his health and overworking habits. “Oops, I'm afraid I have to refuse your statement there” you said in a very firm way. “ You are coming home with me and we are going to have a nice meal and I'm going to make you sleep early tonight!, so you better finish your coffee fast and I'll take you home okay baby?”

“ But babe..” he was cut off by your kiss and spoke no more for now at least. “You can finish that tomorrow okay?” you said breaking the kiss. But without a reply he kissed once again. Deeper than before, he placed his hand on your jaw deepening the kiss as he caressed it. You gave into the kiss until you felt his hand inside your t-shirt and on your waist. He pulled out and gave you wet pecks on your jaw and down to your neck. You knew he was tired but what you realized is he was also needy. You grabbed his hand before he reached your bra clasp, as you took his hand out he stopped and gave you an innocent look as if he wasn't going to make out with you in the studio.

“Yaa wait not so fast” you said out of exhaustion. “ Let's go home okay?” hearing your statement he took no time to get up and get the keys to the car.

“I’ll go with you but I won’t sleep early or let you sleep.”

DATING A⇴Z HEADCANON ⇴ Kim Hanbin

A ⇴ AFFECTION

Hanbin loves attention, and he will definitely use affection to try and win your heart and make sure that he has your attention. He loves to cuddle you and keep you nice and close that his lips can attach to you as much as possible.

B ⇴ BEFORE DATING

Your first meeting was very much a cliché, you ended up heading to the shops without your purse, leaving you red faced at the checkouts. Luckily, the guy next to you offered to pay for your shopping, and after getting his details so that you could pay him back, the rest, as they say, was history between the two of you.

C ⇴ CONFESSION

Whilst Hanbin loved to remind you of how the two of you first met, he also used it to make his confession. As the two of you went shopping together to pick up a few bits, he managed to hide your purse from you yet again. As you glanced back at him, he handed you a note instead of his card. As you read through it, you realised exactly how Hanbin felt about you, glancing up to see him paying for your shopping once again.

D ⇴ DATES

Any date that you had with Hanbin was always romantic. He loved traditional love and being the perfect gentleman, he loved to whisk you off your feet with dinner dates or intimate nights in for the two of you. Public dates weren’t really for him, the most he’d do is take you to the theatre so that the two of you could still be close to each other whilst the lights were down. Hanbin always put in a lot of effort to any date with you, he loved to continue to take you by surprise and make sure that he kept the spark alive.

E ⇴ EXPERIENCE

Before you, Hanbin had never been in a serious relationship before. He always had an idea in his head of what the perfect love would be like, and the kind of woman that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with, but even you exceeded all of those expectations. You were the first, for a lot of things with Hanbin, and he was more than confident that he wanted you to be the last too. He was definitely smug about the fact he knew that his first love would also be his last, there was never anyone else that he wanted to be with.

F ⇴ FIGHTING

Any argument that the two of you had was full of emotion, Hanbin tended to be the one that would sit back and let you go off, and then be there to comfort you when you were finished and learn from your mistakes. He knew that dating someone like him could be hard sometimes, so he’d try hard to empathise more than anything else when he felt that an argument was brewing. He was strong enough to take anything that you had to say to him, but he always made sure to be careful with his words and never say anything hurtful to you. As angry as he got sometimes, there would never be any use in continuing the fight.

G ⇴ GETTING TO KNOW HIS FAMILY

His little sister was the first member of his family that you met when you helped him out babysitting. When she went home and told his family all about how cool you were, they knew they had no choice but to like you, seeing how happy both of them were around you, they knew you’d be a welcomed member of the family.

H ⇴ HOME

Spending time with you was one of Hanbin’s biggest priorities, he loved being around you as much as possible, so when he asked you to move into his place after just a couple of months, it didn’t come as much of a surprise. Slowly, items of yours had been moving into his place anyway, so it only felt right that everything did instead.

I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU”

Hanbin was the first of the two of you to say, ‘I love you,’ one night at the end of a date. As he walked you to your door, he felt his heart screaming out at him to finally say what he had bottled up for so long. It was safe to say that night, Hanbin didn’t end up leaving you at your door, but waking up beside you the following morning instead.

J ⇴ JEALOUSY

If Hanbin didn’t have your attention, then he was definitely prone to getting jealous from time to time. You’d usually be able to tell as he’d get quite quiet and stroppy until you finally paid attention to him. He hated that other people had your time and your energy, selfishly, he wanted to be the only one for you. Even though he knew that could never happen, he was still often very wary of other people around you and would definitely make it known to you whenever he felt a bad vibe coming from someone.

K ⇴ KIDS

Having his little sister, it was only natural for Hanbin to want children of his own one day. Seeing him with his sister certainly got a few thoughts stirring in you about what Hanbin would be like as a father. As much as he loved watching her grow up, he missed her being a baby and relying on him, so he was quite keen to have his own babies who would need him forever, whenever the time was right for the two of you.

L ⇴ LAUGHTER

Hanbin loved to laugh around you, he embraced your company at any moment of every day, it was the most important thing to him. To make him laugh, you loved to wind him up, you knew that he wasn’t a big fan of aegyo, so you’d often appear by his side, poking your cheeks or raising the pitch of your voice to bring a smile to his face. He’d often attack you with tickles to encourage you to stop, as cute as you were, he always felt his body cringe whenever you did aegyo around him to make him happy.

M ⇴ MISSING

Travelling alone certainly made the homesickness a lot less tolerable for him, he hated having to deal with it by himself, especially when he went through long periods without any communication with you. You knew it was a lot harder on him nowadays, but time was just not on your side for most of the time. He’d often send you gifts when he was on the road so that you knew he was thinking of you, he loved to make sure that you still felt special and that you knew you were on his mind. He was always a romantic, even when the two of you were far apart, he’d make sure to spoil you and fill you with a lot of love.

N ⇴ NICKNAMES

Hanbin loved to call you ‘flower,’ after he surprised you with a bouquet of flowers on your first ever date. Over time it just became a bit of a habit for him, neither of you really knew why it stuck, but you didn’t mind.

O ⇴ OBSESSION

He was obsessed with your eyes. He could tell a lot about you just from the look in your eyes, and he definitely loved to know when he had your eyes watching him.

P ⇴ PDA

The two of you being affectionate in public is incredibly rare, you’re much reserved with each other usually, keeping your affection for when it’s just the two of you. Hanbin will tend to just keep a hold of your hand or your back so that he can keep you close to him and be able to know that you’re right beside him.

Q ⇴ QUESTIONS

He loves to ask you for your opinion on the music that he’s working on. He knows he shouldn’t be showing you his projects, but he just can’t help but let you hear them and listen to what you think about them.

R ⇴ RANDOM FACTS

If there’s one negative about dating Hanbin, it’s how much of a deep sleeper he is. So, under your bed, you keep plenty of things that you can use to try and wake him up. You’ll often end up tipping cold water on his face or brushing underneath his nose with a feather. It never quite made sense to you how one person could sleep through so much in the mornings, but eventually you’d manage to get him to open his eyes.

S ⇴ SEX

It’s always incredibly romantic between the two of you, Hanbin likes to always make sure the occasion is special, and never rush anything. He’s incredibly affectionate with you, he doesn’t want to waste a second in making sure that you feel loved by him. His hands will do a lot of exploring around your body, but the one thing that’s most important to him is eye contact. He loves to be able to see your eyes and know exactly how you’re feeling.

T ⇴ TEXTS

He’ll often text you with last minute plans that he’s arranged for the two of you. He’s always coming up with something for the two of you to do together, making sure that no two days are the same for you both.

U ⇴ UNIVERSE

The most treasured thing about your relationship with Hanbin was that he was finally learning about love. It was a feeling he adored, and one he was thankful to have found with you and would always keep hold of.

V ⇴ VACATION

Your holidays were always filled with a lot of romance, he’d make sure to take you to the most beautiful places, paying close attention to places that you often mentioned. He would never tell you where the two of you were going either until you appeared at the airport and feel his arm pull you to a terminal.

W ⇴ WHINING

He is desperate for attention, if I haven’t already made that clear, and any second he doesn’t have yours will definitely be spent kicking up a stink.

X ⇴ XXXXX

Whenever he has a moment, his lips will attach to yours. Hanbin loves to kiss you, especially when he has you nice and close into his side. He’ll often leave trails of kisses around you, he can’t just kiss you once, it’s almost like an instinct for him to make sure that he marks up what is his with a pattern of pecked kisses against your skin. Any part of your body he has access to, he will make sure to kiss it and fill it with love.

Y ⇴ YOU

You were his best friend, the two of you were the first and love loves of each other.

Z ⇴ ZZZ

The two of you were very cuddly whenever you slept, Hanbin loved to have you close to him, and enjoyed the feeling of your presence right beside him. It was always a bad night’s sleep for him whenever you weren’t around.

smut; 40 and ikon bobby please :))

Heyy! Thanks for requesting 💙 Hope you enjoy it 💙

Word count: 400 words.

Warnings: suggestive.

You were sitting on Bobby’s lap as you both kissed each other roughly, hungry for each other. Day has been pretty tiring and stressful for both of you and, what better way of releasing stress than having a make out session with your boyfriend?

You moved your hips against his growing member, driving him crazy. Seeing how he tilts his head back in pleasure by your soft moans and moves turned you on even more. He was driving you crazy as well and you couldn’t help it anymore. You wanted to feel him closer.

As he felt you getting more and more horny he started kissing you roughly once again and after some kisses and bites on your lower lip, he moved down to your neck leaving a trail of butterfly kisses on his way to your neck. He wanted to make sure there wasn’t a spot on your skin that didn’t receive a kiss. He was breathing heavy trying his best to suppress his moans. Unfortunately for you his hard breath was hitting perfectly your sweet spot on your neck sending you chills down your spine and making you more horny if it was possible. “Please…” You said in a shaky voice. “Please what baby?” He answered against your skin making you feel his breath harder. “Just get in me already.” You said whining because of his teasing.

He completely ignored you and kept kissing your neck making you whine harder begging him to stop teasing you. “I want everyone to know you’re my girlfriend.” He whispered in your ear as he kept kissing you. “And I’m planning to mark your neck until it is obvious that we’re dating.” He said right before sucking on your neck. He sucked on your sweet spot for a long minute making you a moaning mess. After some minutes passed your neck started to turn into a purple mixed with red color because of the hickeys Bobby made a few minutes ago. “It looks so beautiful.” He said smirking and admiring the masterpiece he created on your neck right before smashing his lips with your breasts.

[12:32AM] Hanbin has been calling you for hours; no answer. He uses his spare key to see you in bed. Things are cluttered and the house doesn’t look clean. “Oh baby,” he realizes you haven’t been taking care of yourself. “Let’s go,” Hanbin grabs your hand and walks into the bathroom, starting a shower for you. “I’m here, my love.”

Request: Can I request prompts 44+49 with Hanbin?

44. “I love you.”

49. “Did you have a nightmare?”

——

You were wide awake in the bed on your phone. It was 4am and you had a nightmare. These occasionally happened due to your anxiety but you were use to it/them. You heard a shuffle in the bed and saw Hanbin waking up. “Why are you up?” He asks with a husk voice, as he blinked his eyes open. “Couldnt sleep.” You lied. He could always tell when something bad happened. Hanbin snuggled up close to you and nuzzled his head into your neck. “Did you have a nightmare? Is that why you’re up, missy?” He laughs and you nod.

You put your phone on the bed stand and turned over to him. His eyes were so beautiful. Every feature about him made you fall in love all over again. And again. And again. “Like what you see?” He winks and laughs. You rolled your eyes and laughed at his cocky comment and shook your head no. “I don’t...,” Hanbun pulled a sad puppy face and fake cried, “I love what I see,” you kissed him on the nose. “That was smooth.” He pulled you into his chest as deeply as he could and you relaxed into his figure. Practically molded into him. “I love you.” You said quietly. “I love you most.”

——

Even though Hanbin isn’t in iKON anymore; I will STILL forever write with him on the blog. Idccccc. HE DESERVES BETTER !!!

Perfect Morning - Hanbin (Kpop Advent Calendar - December 14th)

Hanbin carefully and slowly, not to wake you up, stood up from the bed and looked out of the window. His eyes were wandering around the city under him and a big lazy smile formed on his lips as he suddenly saw snowflakes starting to fall down from the sky. Like little slow snow fairies, they were slowly covering the rooftops of the buildings, street lights, the cars and everyone walking around at that early morning.

He looked at you and his gaze softened. Since he left your side you started holding tightly his blanket in your arms and smiling in your sleep. There weren’t enough words for him to describe what he felt when he was looking at you. Of course, it was love and affection but something more too. He felt at home in your arms, he felt completed when he was looking into your eyes, he felt secure when his hand was connected with yours, he felt important when you say that you could rely on him.

Hanbin soundlessly tiptoed from the bedroom you shared and went to the kitchen to make something delicious for you when you’ll wake up. Since then the snow started falling more heavily and the fluffy flakes were shaping the city of Seoul into a winter wonderland which Hanbin knew you would love to see.

He came back and sat down next to your sleeping vulnerable form. “Baby, it’s time to wake up.” he whispered gently as he placed the locks of your messy hair from your angel-like face. You just mumbled something in your sleep and brought his blanket even closer to yourself. “Wake up, sleeping beauty. Your prince has something for you.” he whispered again as he now pecked your lips so softly like when a snowflake falls on the land.

Suddenly your hands went around him, “Five more minutes. I’m just having an amazing dream.” you mumbled half awake. He giggled but laid one more kiss on top of your nose. “But it’s snowing, princess.” he said in a gentle voice. You protested one more time which caused Hanbin to roll his eyes playfully. Well, he had the last chance to wake you up and he knew you will wake up this time.

“I made your favourite hot chocolate and pancakes.” he said already smirking when you immediately sat up rubbing your tired eyes. “Where?” you said looking around with pout on your lips. “You are so cute! Good morning, princess.” he said. He took you to his embrace and you cuddled up to his chest. “Good morning,” you yawned, “where are my pancakes and chocolate?” you asked but not moving out of his arms enjoying his warmness. “Look out, angel.” he said and kissed the top of your head. You turned your head and saw the beautiful view, “It’s snowing!” you smiled widely and happily tightened your grip around your boyfriend’s waist.

“And here is your breakfast.” he showed you the plate and the mug full of hot chocolate. He gave you the mug slowly, “Carefully, it’s still hot.” he said. You nodded and took it carefully and sipped the sweet liquid. “It’s so gooooooood.” you smiled. “Just relax. Today I’m spoiling you and I don’t wanna hear a single no. Got it?” he asked and you just nodded. You can’t say no to him. “And now, open your lips. I’m gonna feed you.” he chuckled.

Your cheeks became red, “I’m not a baby.” you whined. “Hush! What did I just say? No complains!” he said firmly. You rolled your eyes at him but smiled in the end, “Yes, sir.” you chuckled. “That’s my good girl.” he said. Well, enjoy your perfect day to the fullest.

Lie (Hanbin)

length: 564 words

genre: angst

10. Have you ever lied to me? + 13. You know when your phone buzzes, it mean I’m trying to talk to you, right?

You rolled your eyes as your phone buzzed for probably the tenth time tonight. Tossing it to the side, you curled up in bed and tried to go to sleep. Your boyfriend Hanbin had been blowing up your phone, but you were in no mood to talk.

He always told you that you had nothing to worry about when dating him. He never looked at other girls, he never thought about other girls. And you believed him. Until he told you he was going to be at the studio all day, only for you to see fans posting pictures of him out with some girl you’d recognized from YG. Now, you found yourself questioning so many things in your relationship. Was this the first time he’d lied, or snuck out with another girl behind your back? Hanbin never struck you as the type, but maybe you really didn’t know him as well as your thought.

You woke up to the sound of knocking at your door, looking at your phone you not only noticed it was 2 am, but you also had several missed calls and texts from Hanbin. Not bothering to check them, you kicked back the covers and headed to check the door. Opening it to reveal a somewhat relieved Hanbin smiling at you.

“Hey babe, sorry if I woke you. You know when your phone buzzes, it means I’m trying to talk to you, right?” He stepped inside, wrapping you in a hug, but his smile faded as he sensed something was wrong. “Babe? Are, are you okay?” You sighed as you took a step back, looking to the floor, knowing if you looked at him you’d not be able to get a word out. “Have you ever lied to me?”

“What?” Hanbin laughed as he took your hands in his, to which you protested, shaking his hands away as your tone became more upset. “I said, have you ever lied to me. And I don’t mean something like saying you have to work late when you really just didn’t want to come over and watch a movie or something. mean something bigger than that, something that would make or break our relationship?”

Hanbin just crossed his arms, furrowing his brow as he looked at you. “Well it seems to me as if you already have an idea, you don’t really need me to answer that do you?” The two of you stood in silence for a moment, the tension between you two building the more you waited to say anything.

“I saw photos, of you out with her. When you told me you were gonna be working all day at the studio. If you were cheating, or whatever you might want to call it. Why couldn’t you just tell me? Instead you let this happen so I can look like an idiot?”

“Y/n, it, it’s not-” “It’s not what it looks like? Hanbin then what is it? I’m sorry but I just, I think we need some time apart for a little while. I honestly never saw you as this kind of guy Hanbin, and I’m starting to think that maybe I don’t really know you as well as I thought I did. So, please, for now. Just go.”

“But, y/n, please just let me explain.”

You shook your head, opening the door to reinforce your request.

“Please, just, go.”

Ikon Reaction To You Wanting To Break Up But They Don’t

asleephun said: hi sweet, can you please do a "when you want to break up but they doesn't because they still love you" reaction with ikon? thank you, i really enjoy ur reactions 💓

(a/n): Finally did this request. Sorry that it took ages! Hope you like it.

Jinhwan:

At the beginning, he had no clue what your intentions were but realizing it was because of the loss of connection between you two and that you guys can’t have a proper conversation, he would wanna try to change that. Tries to convince you otherwise.

Yunhyeong:

It hit him like a rock when you told him that you felt like you’re both growing in different directions. He knew you both had a hard time lately but most certainly didn’t wanted to throw your relationship away. He wants to have a discussion with you, so you stay with him.

Bobby:

After you sat down with him and cleared everything, he couldn’t stop a tear dripping down. It hurt him a lot when you said that he’s not putting any effort into the relationship no more. The whole conversation will probably turn into a fight. He’s not begging but still wanna try being with you.

Hanbin:

He was devastated. I mean, he knew something was up by the way you acted lately but never in a million years he would’ve thought something like this would happen between you two. But there’s nothing he can really do about it, he thought. Will grief about his loss but wants you to be happy.

Junhoe:

You told him that it feels like he’s putting his needs over your needs and that you can’t do it anymore. He then was in shock, not wanting to believe what just happened. He tries to explain his kind of view, even though it seems hopeless, that it’s not like that and that he never intended this.

Donghyuk:

It felt horrible to hear that the reason for the break up is your jobs. He couldn’t always be with you because of his and now you’ll be transferred to another country. Something you couldn’t decline. He tries to convince you to stay and that a long distance relationship can work.

Chanwoo:

He was shocked, when he heard that you no longer have reasons to stay. He tries to outvote you with every good memory you had while being together. But you question it and told him, you stayed because you were used to it. His mind went blank. Didn’t know what to feel anymore.

Polarity (Part 1)

Yunhyeong/Hanbin x Female Reader Soulmate AU

Rated: M for Language and Eventual Smut

Tags: Angst, Slow Burn, Smut, Soulmate AU

TW: MENTIONS OF DEATH/S**CIDE (this chapter only)

Author’s Note: HI EVERYONE it’s me the author with a bunch of ongoing works, back again with a new series! I’m sorry that the introduction is so long;;;;; I hope you like it though and as always your feedback is very loved and appreciated! <3

When people think of soulmates it’s always of the star-crossed lovers. Those great romance stories, of perfection and completion, and of happy endings. Of people who’s lives scarcely mattered before they were swept off of their feet in a fated, world-shaking romance. When the soulmate gene mutation started showing up in the next generation of children it was met with the same sensationalism.

Amazing. Incredible. A blessing from God himself.

Those sentiments were shared by everyone until the first deaths took the world by storm.

The headlines were as lifeless as the people they were reporting about. No witticisms graced them, only shock. What was seen as a blessing only the day prior was suddenly a calamity.

The story was that a young couple had recently been married. They were happy together, successful, and expecting their first child in only a few short months. The activation of the mutated gene changed everything.

The gene itself manifested as a small counter somewhere on the body that would stop when the alleged love of your life made eye contact with you. To make matters worse, the affected area would also tingle when they were nearby and burn painfully when the deed was done and the numbers came to a halt.

The couple were out to dinner when the wife suddenly gasped, clasping her hand to her stomach. Her husband stood, rushing to her side, concerned for the welfare of their unborn son. A nearby waiter hurried over with a glass of water that shattered before it reached them. The waiter and the woman were facing each other, eyes slightly glossed over, looking as if they’d seen the sun for the first time. They were both wincing; him holding his forearm gingerly, her cradling her stomach.

Having a fated love appear isn’t so great when you thought you’d already found the love of your life.

The waiter had begged to be apart of her life, even casually, but she’d refused under the possessive eye of her husband. The woman tried to stay faithful to her husband and eventually fell into a deep depression.

The story ends with the deaths of all those involved. The husband went mad with jealousy and murdered the waiter, which unbeknownst to him caused his wife an indescribable amount of pain and grief, driving her to take her own life. His soon followed by his own hand.

More stories like that one started cropping up and soon enough they were impossible to ignore.

After lengthy debates it was eventually decided that humans deserved their free will and their freedom. Top scientists and researchers immediately began looking for a way to alleviate the side effects of the soulmate gene, if not eradicate it entirely, and nearly two decades later they’d done it.

A small injection at birth, just one vaccine among many, was all it took.

The time counter marks were irreversible, but there was no more more tingling and no more burning. The compulsion was still there, as was the psychic link, but they were severely weakened.

They were beatable.

Humans were once again masters of their own romantic destiny.

Year 21xx

You hugged your bag to your chest tightly, your free hand clinging to an empty space on a nearby pole, trying your best to keep your balance on the crowded train. You could feel your hand slipping, your sleeve riding up your forearm while you struggled to maintain the grip your sweaty palm barely had on the cool metal.

You tried to lean forward, to get closer, but the wall of bodies amassed around the pole wouldn’t budge. You felt your cheeks heat up as your sleeve slowly crept further up. You dropped your arm, pulling your sleeve back down as quickly as you could. Unfortunately the train came screeching to a halt at about the same time, sending you hurling face first into the back of a disgruntled office worker.

You exited the train car, calling out a final apology to the person you’d nearly bulldozed, and started towards your destination with a heavy sigh. Your breath made little clouds in your face and you shivered at how cold it had gotten while you’d been in transit. You pulled back your sleeve, exposing your bare skin to the cool night air, and your mouth pulled into a tight frown.

Goosebumps covered the inky black numbers but there they were, clear as day under the night sky, still ticking against the thin skin of the inside of your left wrist. You sighed again, shaking your sleeve back into it’s place. You didn’t particularly want to meet your soulmate. Did anyone want to these days? You still couldn’t help glancing at the numbers from time to time regardless to check to see if they’d halted. You’d always felt that having them in such a prominent place was a pain. Most people tried to forget that they were cursed, you see, but you were reminded of it every time that you forgot to put on your watch.

You shook your head gently, strands of hair falling into your eyes in protest, and hunched your shoulders as you trudged through the lamp lit city streets.

You were hit by a wall of heat as the heavy door to your destination swung open.

“Welcome to Polari- oh, it’s just you.”

You stuck your tongue out at the bartender and started peeling off your extra layers of clothing and tossed them on the coat rack. Once sufficiently free of your excess winter attire you took an open stool at the bar. Bobby was already there waiting for you with a vodka soda at the ready. He slid it across the counter and rested his elbows where the glass had been moments ago, his large hands cradling his face as he observed you.

“Rough day? You’re not normally here on days off.” He commented as he watched you sip your cocktail through pursed lips.

“Oh, Bobby, I just couldn’t help myself. I can’t stay away from you.” You simpered, drawing a loud laugh from your companion.

“If only I was so lucky, huh?”

“I got stood up again.” You finally admitted with a roll of your eyes. You knew Bobby better than to think he would leave you alone without an answer.

“You have the worst luck with men. How is it possible for you to chase them away before they’ve even met you.” He laughed, dodging your playful swat with practiced dexterity.

“At this point I’m almost hoping I’ll meet my soulmate. At least I’ll know that someone out there will have to love me.” You pouted dramatically, emphasizing your sarcasm.

He frowned, shaking his head almost apologetically. He opened his mouth to speak, but before the words could leave him the door was being pulled open and a heartfelt greeting was leaving his lips instead.

“Welcome to Pola- Guys!”

A group of men that looked to be around your age were pouring into the entrance one by one. You eyed each of them in turn appraisingly and were pleasantly surprised by how attractive they all were.

Bobby had abandoned his station behind the bar and was running over to a rather disgruntled looking man with tousled black hair that framed his face well and was shaved on the sides. He had on large aviator frame glasses, ripped jeans, a bright yellow hoodie, and sneakers that looked like they cost more than your car. His eyes were almonds under thick, wide brows, and his face was well-sculpted and indisputably manly.

Bobby was all sunshine and smiles as he excitedly greeted his friend, but his companion looked as unmoved as ever. The former led the group to the bar top where they took seats near you. You trained your eyes on your glass, unwilling to be caught sizing up a man you’d already determined was quite good looking, when your name called you to attention.

“She’s a bartender here. This is Hanbin. He’s my closest childhood friend.”

The man called Hanbin turned slowly in his seat and examined you with a piercing stare.

“Nice to meet you.” You supplied, trying to keep your voice bright. To your humiliation the man simply quirked an eyebrow at you and turned back to Bobby. Your cheeks colored with embarrassment.

Bobby just shook his head and shot you an apologetic glance.

“As popular with women as always, I see.” He chuckled, sliding over a glass of clear liquid that you hadn’t seen him pour.

Hanbin merely shrugged his shoulders and sipped the drink in silence.

“He seems like a grumpy old man, but I promise he’s a really great guy once you get to know him.” Bobby supplied, trying as usual to spin things in a positive light.

Tonight you just weren’t having it. You’d been insulted enough by men in one day to last you a lifetime.

You downed the rest of your glass and slid it across the counter to Bobby.

“Who says I want to get to know him?”

You were pleased to see Hanbin’s eyebrows knit together with annoyance, but before he could counterattack you were both startled by the giggles that erupted behind you.

“She’s got a point.”

You spun around in your stool and were suddenly face to face with what appeared to be...an angel.

In stark contrast to the grumpy man seated to your left, the one at your back was all smiles. His eyes were bright and sparkly, his shapely lips stretched to show a warm, genuine smile that felt like it held the sun itself. He was dressed in a plain black turtleneck over black jeans and boots, pulling off an effortless elegance. His black hair was short and swept over his forehead with an undercut in the back. His face was boyish and yet handsome, and you found yourself smiling back at him without realizing it.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to suffer in his company. I’m Yunhyeong.”

You scoffed, taking the full glass that you saw Bobby handing to you in your peripherals.

“Who says I want to get to know you either?”

Yunhyeong looked scandalized.

You were surprised to hear laughter coming from your left. Hanbin’s head was tilted back, his prominent adam’s apple bobbing with every bark of laughter that escaped his pouty lips.

“Yah, don’t bully my friends.I need them to keep coming back here to keep me company when you leave me all by myself.” Bobby whined.

With that, the mood shifted and the room was now alight with warm laughter and banter, most of which was the men teasing Bobby about missing them. You turned away form the man called Yunhyeong and sat in silence, sipping the bitter drink that you always ordered more out of habit than enjoyment. You felt someone brush your thigh as they squeezed into the seat to your right.

“You can’t really mean that you don’t want to know me?” Yunhyeong was pouting, obviously still stricken by your rejection.

Your cheeks were permanently stained red from the warmth of the liquor. You could feel the effects swirling in your brain, emboldening you.

You’d come here to avoid men (except for Bobby), and yet here they were on all sides.

You sighed, running a hand through your hair, as you turned to face your persistent companion.

“Why would I want to?” You asked teasingly, tapping your fingers on the bar.

“Well, for one, I’m very good-looking.” He said seriously.

You laughed in earnest this time.

“And apparently I’m pretty funny too.” He finished, smiling sweetly.

“I’ll give you that; you are pretty funny. I guess the real question then is why does someone that’s so good-looking and funny want to get to know me?”

Yunhyeong smiled again with a devilish glint in his eyes, leaning as close as the distance between your stools would allow.

He was entirely too close now, suffocating all of your senses with his presence. You didn’t even see his hand reach for your face, one strong finger tilting your chin up to face him better. He inspected you closely and you swallowed roughly. It had been so long since you’d been this close to a man, let alone one this handsome, and to say it wasn’t having a physical effect would be a lie.

“You’re beautiful, so why wouldn’t I want to know you?” He murmured, his voice velvety.

You felt your face glow like the sun as you hastily pushed his hand away and turned away from him, finishing the rest of your drink while he laughed.

“How many girls has that worked on?” You asked, praying that your flush was starting to fade.

“At least one more today,” supplied a sarcastic voice from your left.

Hanbin was watching you out of the corner of his eyes with an expression you couldn’t read.

Yunhyeong was faster than you with his retort.

“Ah, Hanbin, are you jealous that I’m paying attention to someone else?” He teased, suddenly raising his voice to address the rest of the people in the room:

“Children! Everyone! Please come and love our cute Hanbinnie that is feeling lonely!”

Without a moment’s notice five men, including Bobby, descended upon Hanbin laughing raucously, hugging him, tugging on his hoodie and trying to tickle him. To your surprise he was no longer disgruntled, but rather was laughing with them and trying to tickle them back.

“What a weird guy.” You said, more to yourself than anyone else. You jumped a little when Yunhyeong answered you.

“Hanbin is definitely a weird guy. He isn’t bad, but he doesn’t always do well when he meets new people. He’s shy.” He said, smiling again.

You raised one eyebrow in disbelief. Shy was not the word you would have chosen. You opened your mouth to quip back but at that moment Hanbin had put Bobby in a headlock and the latter was flailing his arms dangerously close to your drink. You reached out to grab it before it fell victim to the mayhem, and in that moment time stood still. The numbers on your wrist had stopped moving.

Your breath caught in your throat. You brought your hand down under the shadow of the bar and pulled back your sleeve to confirm you hadn’t been seeing things, but sure enough they’d come to a dead halt. Panic washed over you. One of the men in this room was your soulmate...but who? When had it stopped?

“Hey, are you okay?” A concerned voice from your right brought you back to the present.

“Yeah, no, I’m...fine. Yeah.” You said, your voice sounding hollow even in your ears. Thankfully the rest of the men were preoccupied with harassing Hanbin so the only person that bore witness to your internalized panic was Yunhyeong.

“I think I should go.” You said, mostly to yourself again. Yunhyeong must have amazing hearing.

“Can I walk you home?” He asked, concern etched into his soft features.

“No, I live close, I’m okay. I’m okay.” You repeated it, as if confirming it for yourself and stood to leave without letting him press the matter.

“See you tomorrow, Bobby!” You called, your voice still colored with the same unnatural tone, as you collected your belongings and all but ran out of the bar.

Seven pairs of eyes watched you flee; One of them belonged to someone you were destined to fall in love with.
