#On the way to school and I have Saeyoung brain can you tell

[brighteststar707]

Random thought of the day: Big Star by Lorde has the potential to be a Saeyoung song

I just feel like that first line is a sentiment he feels often early on

RFA with a MC that has dyslexia

This is the last request I had saved! It’s by @gompereatsall​, who sent me this:

The other is where MC has dyslexia (and dropped out of high school, so she doesnt even have a high school education) and she struggles to keep it s secret from her S/O

I ended up having no ideas for Jaehee :( Since it was already long, she’s skipping this particular headcanon. I hope you liked it, sending hugs!

Yoosung

He was really, really excited when he learnt you were the same age as his. His excitement decreased a little when he realized you weren’t enrolled at SKY, though.

He asked for your major, but you decided to keep it a secret. Since he didn’t want to share his either, you joked you would tell him about yours when he told you about his.

It was all fun and games until he told you what his major was.

You tried to hide for months, even going to the extent to say you had online classes so that’s why you were almost always home.

Until that night came.

You had decided to spend the quarantine together and Yoosung was having trouble with the whole online classes idea. You had just woken up and were still half-asleep when he came to the bedroom to ask for your help, since his classes started in ten minutes and he couldn’t get the platform to work.

“MC, I really need your help, please, get up,” he asked, shaking your shoulder gently. You groaned and rubbed your eyes.

“Help you how?”

“I don’t know how to use this platform, and maybe it’s the one you’re using too. Please, they will count me as absent if I’m late!”

“Hmm, how would I know how that works?” you mumbled, turning around and trying to get to sleep again.

“Because you… take online classes,” Yoosung reasoned. He pouted, his eyes going around the bedroom. “Right? You told me all your classes were online”.

The realization you had just messed up made you sit up on the bed, startled.

Yoosung was looking at you confused and you realized there was no way to explain what you had just said. You just looked at him, feeling incredibly small in your pajamas, his confused expression hurting you. You bit your lip, and opened your mouth to talk, but Yoosung cut you off.

“Can we… talk about this later? I’ll call Seven for help”

You nodded as he shut the door behind him. You let yourself fall on the bed again. You knew how much he hated secrets and you couldn’t believe you had done well for so long before letting him find out like this.

A couple of hours later, you went to the kitchen and found him there, drinking a can of soda as he looked at his phone. You took a deep breath and asked him to sit down on the couch with you so you could explain.

Once you told him the real reason behind your lie, his anger seemed to go away for a bit. You explained you were so proud of him for going to school, and that you didn’t want to share your experience with the education system, since you felt it had failed you and your dyslexia diagnose. SKY was a tough uni to get into, and knowing he studied there, you didn’t want him to know you were actually stupid.

Yoosung immediately hugged you tightly against his chest.

“You’re not stupid! Never say that again,” he said, pressing a kiss on your forehead. “It’s not like only smart people get into good unis. The exam is design in a way only with good memory pass it, intelligence has nothing to do with it,” he assured you. “I’m not really smart either. But you’re definitely not stupid. You had something that got in the way of your learning! Your school should have helped instead of letting you drop out”.

The next days, Yoosung took his time in getting educated about everything and anything that had to do with your diagnose. He found out all the ways he could help and tried his best to make your life a little bit easier. He always asked you what else did you need and what else he could do to fill that need.

And, honestly? That level of love and support was everything you needed

Zen

You were watching a series with him after a long day of work. The protagonist and their love interest went to a classic American prom and had the mandatory slow dance scene.

“I guess having something like prom would have been fun. The guys at my school went on a trip” Zen commented. You stayed in silence for a moment, not knowing what to say next. You just hummed and nodded, your eyes fixed on the screen. The episode ended and as the credits rolled, he turned to you again. “How was your prom? Who did you go with?” he asked with a teasing smile.

“Oh-- it was nice,” you answered. “Hey, I’m making some coffee for myself, you want anything?” you offered, getting up from the couch and heading to the kitchen.

“Hey! Why don’t you wanna tell me who did you go with?”

“It’s not important!”

“Oh, that means you did go with someone!” Zen reasoned, following you. “Babe, it’s okay, it’s not like you are still dating or seeing that guy anymore,” he said, his expression falling shortly after. “You’re not, right?”

“Of course not!” you huffed.

“Right, sorry, my mind went somewhere really dangerous,” Zen apologized. “So, why won’t you tell me about your prom? C’mon, I wanna know”

You sighed and turned around, finally facing him.

“I didn’t have one,” you muttered. “I didn’t finish high school”

Zen furrowed his eyebrows. “Oh,” he said. “Why… why didn’t you tell me? You know I also dropped out.”

“Yeah, but I didn’t do it for… you know, your reasons. You had to make a choice to further your career and you were also going through issues. I was just stupid”

“You’re not stupid, what are you talking about?”

“I… I had a lot of trouble at school. I have dyslexia and it made school so damn difficult, I was about to fail the year so I… dropped out. My drawings were somewhat good so I became a freelancer but yeah, my stupid brain didn’t let me have a prom”

“Okay, you have to stop calling yourself stupid. You’re an amazing artist! C’mon, don’t be so hard on yourself,” he asked, pulling you to his chest and hugging you.

Two weeks after your conversation, you got home after delivering a project and found Zen’s apartment filled with balloons, a small disco ball on a table, soft music playing one of your favourite songs.

Zen came out of the window wearing a light blue shirt and black pants, a slightly loose tie around his neck. You smiled when you saw him and left your purse near the door. As soon as you were in reaching distance, he twirled you around and then set his hand on the small of you back, his other hand taking yours. He started slow-dancing with you, his soft eyes fixed on you.

“Where did all this come from?” you asked with a grin, swaying your body to the music.

“I guess this way we both get to have a prom dance like the ones we see on TV,” he shrugged. “I even prepared punch, it’s in the kitchen.”

“Is it spiked?”

“You know me too well, babe,” he laughed, pressing a kiss on your forehead.

Jumin

Jumin had noticed you didn’t tell him stories about your school. He would tell you all about his time with V, but you never shared stories of your own. He didn’t mind it at first but was curious.

For a moment, he thought you might feel uncomfortable since he went to a fancy private school and you didn’t, but when time passed and you easily accommodated to his lifestyle he realized that wasn’t the case.

Jumin is a very observant man, so he also noticed how you had trouble reading. He had never mentioned it, figuring you hadn’t put on your contacts lenses.

That night when he left work and came to you, something couldn’t leave his mind. And of course, you noticed the tiny tell-tales he wasn’t as relaxed as he usually was when you two were together. You both were sitting on the sofa in silence when you couldn’t hold it any longer.

“What’s going on, love?”

“You know I hate bringing up work when we’re together, but…” Jumin sighed. “Assistant Kang wrote the speech I’m supposed to give at the gala I told you about and I just can’t see why I don’t really like it. I can’t even tell her to do it again because I don’t know why is it about it that I dislike,” he paused and took out a piece of paper from his briefcase. “Would you take a look at it? Maybe you can help me pin what’s wrong about it”.

You nodded and took the piece of paper from Jumin’s hands. He watched you as you scrunched your eyebrows, but kept your eyes focused on the paper.

“Do you need me to hand you your contacts?” he offered.

“I have them on,” you muttered, trying to concentrate.

“Maybe those aren’t working for you anymore? I could have the best optician see you tomorrow morning”

“No, I just-- I have-- Give me a minute to try and read this,” you tried to explain. Jumin looked at you confused. “I have dyslexia, so I have a little trouble reading long texts. But give me more time and I can finish this”

“I didn’t know,” Jumin said. He stayed in silence for a moment. “Did that make school difficult?”

He noticed the way your hands tensed. “I… I didn’t finish high school. Couldn’t keep up”.

And that was the moment everything clicked for Jumin.

He gave you the time you needed to finish reading and then listened to your comments about it. Knowing it was a delicate subject, he didn’t make further comment on it, but rather tried to be more affectionate than ever that night.

In the following days, he asked you if you wanted to get your high school diploma. He offered the help of a therapist that could help you and a tutor if you needed one. If you didn’t want to get a diploma, he still offered the help, as he knew it could still be beneficial for you.

He would ask a lot of questions about it on how he could make life easier for you. Do you prefer audio messages rather than texts? Because he would ask Saeyoung to change the RFA chat if needed.

He just wanted to know he would try and give you anything that could make you feel as happy as he was with you.

Saeyoung

Working this under the theory that Saeyoung has ADHD.

Neurodivergent team!

SILENCE, NEUROTYPICAL is your favourite catchphrase tbh

You try to help each other as much as you can! You do your best to help with his cluttering and remind him when he should get some rest. You also played a big part in changing his eating habits.

He also makes sure to add a feature for voice messages. Jaehee hates it because she is always working or listening to Zen’s recordings and it’s not practical. But Saeyoung uses it all the time and has upped his prank game sending the most annoying audios to everyone. But you know the only reason why he added it was to make your life a little bit easier.

He offers to pay for a therapist if you want to exercise your reading skills.

One late night, as you both had just finished watching a movie and were cuddling on the couch, you confessed you hadn’t been able to finish high school due to the dyslexia. You told him you hadn’t told him before because you were ashamed of it, and would appreciate if he didn’t tell anyone either. You didn’t want them to know you didn’t have a diploma.

“You know I can hack your school system and get you a diploma, right?” he asked. You chuckled and shook your head.

“Thank you, baby. There’s not need, though”

“If you want to try again, it’s okay,” he said, kissing your cheek. “And if you don’t, that’s okay too. Just whatever you decided to do with it… remember you won’t have to do it alone this time”.

Saeyoung Week - Day 5: AU

College Party AU MC’s roommate convinces her to attend a house party hosted by campus charity organization - The RFA. Minor legend and mystery on campus 707 is of course also there. MC thinks he’s weird - and absolutely adorable. Cheesiness ensues. This is my first ever crack at an AU it was really fun to write, I hope you enjoy it!

---

“MC, Are you coming with me or not?!” Her roommate says in a whine as she puts the finishing touches on her lipstick in the mirror attached to their shared closet. 

MC looks up from the textbook she’s had her nose in for the past hour, Although she hasn’t absorbed much of it. Calculus was about as foreign to her as a different language - actually, even more so, she’s pretty sure she could learn another language faster than this. 

“I don’t know, Mei. I’m no fun at parties I usually just go sit in a corner and play games on my phone, or end up in some awkward conversation with some guy who can’t take a hint.” MC responds with a roll of her eyes. 

“Maybe this time will be different! You might meet someone you have something in common with, get into a good conversation, or maybe something even more interesting.” Her roommate says with a strange eye wiggle.

“Ok, first of all. Never do that again. Second of all. I’m not really looking for someone to “have conversations with” let alone anything “more interesting.” MC feels the bed dip as her roommate sits on the edge of it. 

“MC.” Mei says, serious now. “Don’t take this the wrong way but you can’t shut off all possibilities because the last person you dated didn’t understand your worth, ok?”

MC looks to the side. She’s right of course. It’s been more than enough time to have recovered. She was just sulking, constantly. Maybe she should get out for a while, She doubted she’d make much progress in understanding the symbols in her textbook in the next few hours anyway. She needed a tutor, and she wasn't going to find one tonight. “Ok. I’ll go.” MC surrenders.

“YES, This is gonna be so much fun! You wanna borrow something from my closet? I have an outfit I think would look adorable on you.” Mei says, dancing about the room excitedly.

“Sure?” MC surrenders. 

“Who’s party is this anyway?” MC asks a few minutes later as she toys with the rips on her pants Mei picked out for her.

“Some charity organization, costs like five bucks to get in but hey it's for charity. They aren't sponsored by the school though which means tonight is going to be lit.” He roommate says

“Who invited you?” MC inquires. 

Her roommate shrugs “I don't know. Some unknown number texted me the other day, a lot of others got invites too, the guy won’t give his name. You didn't get one?”

“Nah, guess Mr. Unknown doesn't like me too much” MC pouts exaggeratedly. 

“Oh shut up, that's just cuz you never give your number to anyone, ever.” Mei responds, flipping her hand. 

--

30 minutes later they stand in front of a house near campus. Loud music plays from the house and people mill about on the lawn playing beer pong and talking, well more like screaming with how loud the music is. MC’s pretty sure she can see someone’s legs sticking out of a bush probably passed out. 

As they approach the door a blond boy, not too much taller than them stumbles out pushes past MC’s roommate. Then he stops to stare at MC. His wide purple orbs become even wider as he studies her face. He places his hands on her shoulders and looks into her eyes. 

“Whoa,” He says, MC can smell beer on his breath. “You’re like. Really pretty.” 

Before she can respond the blond is being dragged away by a taller man with a platinum white ponytail and piercing red eyes. “Hey, hey come on man, you can’t just grab onto people like that. Sorry ladies, my friends a bit of a lightweight.” he apologizes whilst draping one of the smaller man’s arm’s around his shoulder so he can help him walk. “Come one, let's get you home.” 

“But Zeeeeeeen.” The boy whines in protest as he’s dragged away. 

MC shakes her head as she follows the flow of people into the house. 

As soon as she enters the house she’s struck by the site of a red-headed man standing on the kitchen island, holding a fluffy white cat up above him while a man in a suit reaches desperately for said cat. 

People are gathered around watching the spectacle with assument. 

“What is this, Lion King?” MC says under her breath

“Naaaaaaants ingonyamaaaaaa Bagithi Baba!’ The red-head belt’s out with almost perfectly accuracy.

“Oh ok, that is what he's doing. How drunk is that guy?”

“He’s not.” Her roommate answers. “He apparently doesn't even drink alcohol. Just a lot of Dr. Pepper. That’s 707 or ‘Seven’ for short, he’s always like that. He’s kind of a campus legend.”

“707?”  says questioningly “What in the world kinda name is that?”

Mei rolls her eyes. “Well, that’s not his real name, of course. He tells everyone it's his code name. I don't know, he's a Comp Sci major, probably thinks it's cool or something.”

“What a weirdo,” MC says studying the man and shutting up the small voice in her head telling her weird, but cute. "So what's his real name?" She asks before she can stop herself.

"Luciel?… Something? I think? I don't know, you want a drink?"

"I'm gonna need one with that guy around." MC says watching as he jumps down from the counter, cat still in his hands and darts out the back door in a fit of giggles followed by suit dude. 

---

She has no idea what's in these drinks her roommates been handing her but they taste good and as a result she's completely lost track of how many she's had. She's heard people say you never realize how drunk you are until you're in the bathroom, she's currently finding out how true that is. 

She stares in the mirror and notes how her own reflection rotates and then resets with each blink. 

"Ha. Funny" she says to the mirror. Yup ok definitely drunk. 

She manages to wash her hands and get out of the bathroom without incident. When she opens the door to the hallway she sees someone crouched over, dangling something from a string. It's the same crazy red-head from before. 

"Come on Elly! I'm sorry! You've gotta come out!" He says to someone. Something? 

It takes her drunk brain a moment to process that he's trying to get the cat, who must currently be under the console table he's crouched near, to come out. 

"She'll come out if you jus leab her alone." She slurs out. 

"But then how am I supposed to play with her?" Seven says, pouting. He turns around to look up at her. That's when the full force of his golden eyes strike her for the first time. Her jaw falls open and she stands there stupid for a moment. 

"Uh… you ok there?" He says, noting her unresponsiveness. 

"Me? Yea! Yea I'm fine. It's just your…" she stops herself.

Right then suit dude barrels down the hallway, quickly retrieving what must be his cat from under the furniture and mumbling something about “Elizabeth the 3rd” and “proper names”. 

"My?" Seven repeats slowly, seemingly more focused on her than the cat he was apologizing profusely to a second ago. 

"It just. You have like. Really pretty eyes." She mentally slaps herself. God, she sounds just like that blond kid now. 

“OH! Thanks, Pretty Lady!” He says, flashing her the brightest, most beautiful smile that ever existed. 

Her stomach leaps as she feels her cheeks getting hotter. Did he really just call her that? oh no. No no no This isn't good. She thinks. This is how it starts, and then before you know it’s morning and you’re regretting things. “I uh, gotta go” She mumbles, turning back toward the stairs that lead back down to the party. 

She doesn't make it far though and before she knows it the floor is in her face. How did that happen?

“Whoa, ok you are definitely not ok.” She hears a voice say behind her before study arms lean her gently up against the wall. He sits next to her somewhat supporting her weight along with the wall. 

“Here, sip on this.” He says handing her a bottle of water.

Where did he even get that? “What if you drugged it?” MC says accusingly.

“Smart girl, but no. Not really my thing.” He says before snapping the seal on the bottle, proving to her it’s brand new. She’s sure there are still other ways he could have drugged it but his kind eyes and her already inebriated state are making her care less. She takes it out of his hand and begins to gulp it down.

“Hey, hey, hey no,” He says taking it back from her. “Sip slowly, you'll make yourself sick.” He practically feeds her sips for the next several minutes. 

“Thanks.” She says, leaning into him a little more. “I thought you were crazy, but you’re really nice.”

He chuckles. “What if I’m both?” he asks.

“Mmm. You’re cute so it's ok.”

“You think I’m cute?” He asks, genuinely.

“Mmhmm.” She says nodding into his shoulder. 

“You’ll have to tell me that again when you’re not drunk so I believe you.”

“Mmkay, sounds good.” 

“Did you come here with someone?”

“My roommate, she likes parties. Made me come. I should be studying.” she groans. 

“And what exactly should you be studying?” 

“Calculus. I hate it. I don't get it. I need a tutor.” She whines

“I could tutor you, you know. If you actually remember me tomorrow.”

She stares dumbstruck for a moment. “Whoa. Are you smart?” 

“Sometimes!” he says with a chuckle. “Why don't we call your roommate? See if we can't get you home? I can drive you both if you’re ok with it” 

“Mkay” she says taking out her phone. She stares at her lock screen, touching numbers on the keypad, attempting to unlock it but it would seem she can’t remember her code in her current state.

“Ughhhh she groans out. I changed the lock code the other day and I don’t remember it. It was my ex’s birthday and I was tired of thinking about it. I shoulda just kept it.” She says, defeated. 

“Can I see?” He offers, holding out his hand.

She shrugs and hands it to him. 

“Did you connect to the house wifi when you got here?” He asks, taking his own phone out. 

“Yea, why?”

“This should be a lot easier then.” He says, rapidly tapping his screen, then hers, before handing her phone back, unlocked. “Ta-Da!” He exclaims. 

“Whoa! What the fuck are they teaching you in Comp Sci?”

“Ah-haha” He laughs nervously. “I may have, learned that on my own.”

“You’re dangerous!”

“And don't you forget it Bay-bee.” He says with a wink. 

Shit, he really is cute. She thinks as she pulls up her roommate's contact info.

The phone rings a few times before Mei picks up, Sounding almost as drunk as MC.

“I want to go home,” MC says into the receiver. “Seven says he can drive us.”

“You’re hanging out with 707?” he roommate responds stunned.

“Ya. He’s cool.” she answers, making Seven smile.

---

Soon the three of them are walking out to the line of cars on the street. Seven is helping MC as a nice woman with a cute cropped haircut and a pencil skirt helps her roommate. 

“I didn't realize ‘Charity Organization’ meant ‘helping drunk people into cars.’ The woman says.

“Sorry, Jaehee!” Seven apologizes.

“Do not be, you are doing the right thing Luciel.”

“Spent the day with Elly, the night with a cute girl, andI’m getting praise from Jaehee. I think I died. This isn't real life. I must be in heaven” Seven says dramatically.

“You are so strange.” Jaehee says as they approach a sporty-looking red car. 

MC’s eyes trail over the sleek exterior of the car. “What rich dude owns this thing?” She says.

Jaehee snorts.

“Ah.” Seven says. “That would be Yours Truly, my dear. This is one of my babies.”

MC is feeling a bit more sober now. “One? Of your babies? What?”

“Hehe, and you’re getting the coveted shotgun seat.” He pauses “Just don’t tell Yoosung ok?” He whispers, helping her into the seat and buckling her in.

“Who the fuck is Yoo-” She cut short by the realization that is he is very close to her right now. Oh, he smells good. Her brain really needed to shut up. 

He looks down at her red face. “Come on Cutie, let’s get you home.” He says with a smile before shutting the door gently. 

---

Seven stands in her doorway. MC’s roommate has already crashed in her bed but MC herself must be feeling at least a little better as she stands to say goodnight to him. 

“Would it be too soon for me to ask for your number?” He asks nervously “Ya know, So I can see how you feel in the morning?” He hurriedly adds.

MC smiles, amusedly “Couldn't you just hack the school's database for it?”

“I could. But I won’t. I wouldn't go against your wishes like that.” He says earnestly, eyes darting awkwardly to the side. 

MC smiles at him. He seems sweet. He really does. “I don't usually give my number out to people.” She says shuffling in the doorway. “But people aren't usually as nice to me as you were tonight.” 

He smiles one of those 100-watt smiles again. “Is that a yes?”

She giggles. “Yea, let me see your phone.” she says. 

She takes it and enters her info handing it back to him.

“MC huh? Cute.” He notes “I'll text you so you have my number too.”

The phone beeps a second later with a “Hey Hiya Hey Hey” displayed on the screen.

“What should I put you under? 707? Seven? Luciel?”

“Saeyoung.” He says quietly, his face becoming red as he avoids her eyes, checking the time “It’s late I gotta go I’m sorry! I'll text you in the morning!” he says as he backpedals down the hall waving at her. 

“Why do you have so many names!?” she shouts.

“It’s a secret!” he responds before opening the heavy metal door to the stairwell and disappearing. 

MC shuts the door and plops down on her bed, smiling wider than she has in a long time as she stares at his contact info. 

“I can’t believe you and The Legendary Seven Zero Seven are gonna date.” Mei grumbles out.

“Who said that?!” MC says with a scandalized tone. 

“Both of your faces did just now!” she teases before rolling over. 

MC giggles again, feeling giddy and for the first night in months she falls asleep thinking about someone new.

Jumin 

It was a cold winter day when the two of you decided to take a walk. 

You requested to have less bodyguards around the two of you since you wanted to enjoy the day with him. 

And he agreed with you. 

When you walked past a wonderful coffee shop, he decided to buy you something warm. 

,,So, my beautiful wife. What would you like to have?’’ he asked you with a lovely smile on his lips. 

,,Mhhh…I would like to have - Baek Seoung Jo?!’’ you exclaimed and looked at a handsome man. 

Jumin followed your gaze and noticed that the man had a lovely smile on his lips. 

,,MC? Is that you?’’ he asked you and hugged you. 

And you…hugged him back. 

Jumin got jealous, he clenched his fist together and looked at the two of you. 

,,Oh! Jumin! This is….Baek Seoung Jo…Baek Soung Jo, this is Jumin Han.’’ you told him. 

,,Her husband.’’ Jumin added annoyed as he bowed his head a bit. 

,,Nice to meet you! I’m her first love!’’ the man exclaimed and smirked without you noticing. 

Jumin Han’s jealousy grew after he heard that. 

First love…? But why were you so nice with him then…? 

,,Yeah! He rejected me in Highschool, haha!’’ you laughed over this memory which seemed painful. 

But Jumin was so angry and annoyed that he grabbed your hand. 

,,Excuse us. I didn’t notice that it’s already that late.’’ he glared at the man and left the shop with you. 

As soon as you were outside, he kissed you roughly and passionate. 

,,Jumin, what?’’ you tried to ask him. 

,,Drver Kim!’’ he called his Driver and pushed you into the car. 

,,Don’t try to make me jealous ever again…’’ he begged and kissed you once again…

Zen 

Zen knew, he got jealous over every thing. 

But when he met your first love on stage, he could’t stay calm. 

Flashbacks how you stood there, teary eyes in front of the man who made your heart once beat as quickly as now Zen did were haunting him… 

,,Mc, what happened? Did this man hurt you?’’ he asked you back then. 

The man responded in your place. 

,,I’m her very first love, right, babe?’’ the man asked you. 

Zen’s red eyes grew in surprise. 

He looked at you, you nodded and sobbed. 

,,We broke up after I had to move to the other end of the city because of a famous movie. And when I came back, I lost her.’’ the man kept explaining. 

,,I’m sorry…’’ he mumbled. 

You lightly smiled at him and touched his cheeks. 

,,I’m happy that you’re well.’’ you told him and went away, leaving your first love and your boyfriend alone. 

,,And so I have to act with my girlfriend’s ex boyfriend?’’ Zen asked the man. 

,,Seems so. Nice to meet you, I’m Eun Jo. And I won’t give up.’’ the black haired man said and went back. 

That’s why Zen couldn’t stay calm on stage. 

He once read that the first love will forever stay something particular. 

He had to give his all. 

,,Zen. Zenny!’’ you called him when he sat on a bench, waiting for the end of the long lasting break. 

,,Mc. Do you want to go back to him?’’ Zen asked you when he finally noticed you. 

,,No. He will have a special place in my heart. But, your place is bigger than his.’’ you explained.

,,My beast….’’ Zen mumbled after he went with you to his room. 

,,If you act this way every time you’re jealous…’’ you moaned after the two of you were finished. 

Yoosung 

Yoosung never came to think about the fact, that you could have been in love before you met him. 

He never was scared or even worried. 

So it was a great shock when you one day came to visit him at his workplace and greeted a random guy as if he was your long lost husband. 

,,Hello dear! After such a long time…!’’ the man talked to you as if he knew you since ever… 

,,Hello, Hyun Jong! I’m okay, how are you? Oh, let me show you my husband, Yoosung!’’ you smiled awkwardly at Yoosung. 

,,So, you could get married after we spit up, huh?’’ he laughed and you blushed. 

So, this must have been your ex boyfriend. 

,,How long were you together?’’ Yoosung asked out of the blue while he took a look at the pet he brought. 

,,Since Middle School until our first year in the University, right?’’ he asked you back and you gave him a nod. 

Yoosung looked at you, so long? 

Yoosung’s jealousy grew in the next few seconds so much… 

He got really angry. 

He glared a the so named Hyun Jong.

,,Mc! I need to speak with you!’’ Yoosung told you out of the blue and pulled you out of the room. 

,,Huh, Yoosung…?’’ you asked him. 

His grip was really strong right now. 

Yoosung looked you right in your eyes. 

He got reminded what Zen said before the two of you began a relationship. 

About you having an ex boyfriend. 

,,I love you. Don’t talk to other guys.’’ he said. 

,,Uh, should I just ignore everyone?’’ you asked him, a bit hurt that he didn’t trust you after five years of marriage. 

,,I trust you. But  don’t trust other men….’’ he mumbled and kissed your bottom lip. 

Jaehee 

Jaehee woke up in the morning with an oddly bad feeling. 

But she quickly forgot this feeling. 

Just before she was about to bake a cake, a splendid woman entered the coffee shop. 

Jaehee watched the woman with the long black hair. 

But shrieked, as soon as you said a woman’s name and got the woman’s attention. 

,,Oh HaNi!’’ 

,,Huh? Mc?!’’ the woman laughed and approached you. 

Jaehee got jealous. 

She hugged you a few seconds too long and her hands rested on wrong parts. 

And your eyes….your beautiful eyes began to shine. 

BUM 

,,OH!’’ Jaehee shrieked as she let go of the cake. 

Now, she was the one who had our attention. 

,,Oh, Jagi! Are you alright?’’ you asked her while you helped her. 

Jaehee looked at the woman. 

She counted 1+1 and knew, this must have been your previous girlfriend. 

Jaehee knew what she had to do now. 

,,Ugh, I was so scared for a few seconds. I’m sorry, I screwed up…’’ she mumbled and rested her head on your chest while she hugged you strongly. 

,,Oh dear! It was an accident, don’t be like that, Jaehee! It’s okay…’’ you smiled and stroked her head while the both women glared at each other… 

Saeyoung 

His 606 was only his. 

No way you could love someone other… 

But wow, he didn’t know that he could be that wrong. 

,,Mc? Is that you, Mc?’’ a man asked you when you were walking hand in hand with Saeyoung. 

Today you decided to go out grocery shopping with your fiancé and his twin brother. 

But you didn’t expect to meet your ex-fiancé…. 

,,Huh? Is that you, Jun-seo?’’ you asked the man in front of you. 

And Saeyoung noticed right away that a part in your brain went through all memories you had with this man who seemed to have the name Jun-seo.

,,Yeah!’’ he nodded and looked somehow sorry. 

But you too, looked down. 

Did she just blush? He thought as he looked at you, his lovely 606. 

,,Who are these two boys?’’ he asked you. 

Saeran gulped.  And Saeyoung could hear it. 

,,Oh…well…’’ you stuttered and looked at them. 

,,This is my fiancé’s twin brother Saeran.’’ you told him as you pointed at Saeran.

,,And this is….my fiancé.’’ you explained. 

Saeyoung was so jealous, that he hold you hand stronger. 

,,Hello. You are really lucky to have Mc. Congrats.’’ he smiled at him. 

,,I remember when long ago I was the one who was your fiancé….but since we were each other’s first love, I guess that on the ceremony day we got both scared.’’ 

,,Well…’’ you smiled at Jun-seo ,,to be honest, you were the only one who got afraid because I was waiting for you that day.’’ you explained. 

This was enough. 

Saeyoung knew what it meant to be confronted with the past. 

And since your voice began to tremble, he decided that the two of you should go now. 

,,Bye! It was pleasant to meet you! If you would have had time, I would have invited you to the ceremony!’’ Saeyoung told him while he went on. 

,,How can you now that he won’t have time?’’ you asked him. 

,,Uhu, just a guess.’’ 

,,Where does he live?’’ Saeyoung asked his brother in the middle of the night. 

,,Haha, with these drugs he will be imprisoned until the day after the wedding…’’ Saeyoung laughed.

Saeran 

,,Saeran! Let’s go to the park!’’ you called him. 

With a big smile he followed you. 

He didn’t regret this since the two of you met a handsome boy just three minutes after you arrived at the park.

,,If this isn’t the most beautiful girl, Mc!’’ he greeted you. 

,,Oh, here with relatives? I hope I’m still your first love…!’’ he laughed. 

Your face got red but not because you blushed but because you were angry. 

,,No. I’m here with my boyfriend. I forgot you right after you laughed at my confession.’’ you told him with a scary look. 

,,Well, I hoped that you couldn’t forget me…’’ he confessed. 

But in the next moment Saeran pushed him away. 

,,Mc, I think we should head home again.’’ he told you and grabbed your hand. 

When you were home again, he hugged you and pulled your head to his chest. 

,,Please, don’t leave me….and, don’t be sad….don’t remember him…’’ Saeran whispered. 

His fear was hidden in his voice and so you brushed his still white hair while you nod. 

,,Serves you right…’’ Saeran laughed meanly as he typed on the keyboard. 

He installed various virus on your first love’s laptop and phone and made sure to crush his career as lawyer as he cancelled evidences and put in wrong files. 

Nobody should even dare to make fun of you or hurt you…. 

Nobody could touch you, his everything and new savior.

Jihyun 

His new client was a really good one who wanted to buy everything Jihyun ever painted or showed in a picture. 

One day he asked you to go with him.

,,I have to meet this client…’’ Jihyun explained while you entered the car. 

You were really surprised when it turned out that the man who wanted to buy Jihyun’s was your first love you never confessed to. 

Jhyun noticed right away that you became quite shy towards the man. 

,,Oh! Mc, are you perhaps working with Mr Kim?’’ he asked you. 

,,Mhh…’’ you responded and looked away, your cheeks grew even redder and your hands got sweaty, 

Jihyun was a bit worried about you. 

,,Oh, you’re like in the past, still shy and really cute in my eyes…..I wish I would have confessed to you.’’ he told you while your smile fainted. 

,,You were in love with me…?’’ you asked him and blushed again while you asked him. 

,,Uh, yeah….but, everyone knew….I thought you knew too!’’ he responded. 

The two of you just forgot the blue haired man… 

,,Well, I didn’t know! But, you were my first love too….and haha, I didn’t confess to you too..’’ you chuckled. 

But then you noticed what you said and looked at your boyfriend. 

Fear was written all over your face. 

,,Well, if you want, we could-‚‘’ 

,,To be honest I just came here to tell you, that there’s someone else who would pay more than you. I’m sorry. 

So now, my love, should we leave to have dinner. We have a lot of things to do this evening.’’ Jihyun told you and went on to leave. 

Unfortunately he didn’t talk for the whole evening. 

,,Jihyun…’’ you whispered his name, afraid that he would leave you. 

,,I’m sorry.’’ he excused himself and got up. 

,,I know that I was harsh towards him but I was…..afraid.’’ he told you the truth and kissed you with all his love. 

,,It’s okay, my fault…!’’

MysticMessenger Misconception

Myth: Rika is evil.

It's more of her being misunderstood and going down the wrong path unknowingly. She suffered from multiple mental illnesses such as anxiety, depression and hallucinations. This causes her to lose touch with reality, also known as Psychosis. People who have Psychosis have inappropriate thoughts, feelings and behaviour and are disconnected from the reality around them without knowing the disconnection. This is just a theory, but there are many strong evidence suggesting this.

Due to her anxiety, the hallucinations started and she began to believe that she needed to save people from what she perceived as a bad world. Her anxiety was excessive, causing her brain to have too much stimulation, flooding the brain with "sensory imput".

In her case, the circuit's in her brain got jammed. Her brain couldn't make sense of the current environment, so it generates its own sensations, it starts hallucinating.

Rika started dating V after V noticed her looking at his exhibited picture in a museum, stating that she love the picture because she feels that "all my (her) fears disappear" and she feels the "consistent love and warmth" emitting from his piece.

While this may seem normal, it could help explain her experience from her past. Being adopted, only for her adoptive mother to regret doing so, would have given her a huge blow. It would have lowered her self-confidence greatly and have no parental figure to look up to. In the “R.F.A Top Secret” book located in the Character concept section, Rika was stated to be (see below)

If she absorbed what her adoptive mother said when she was young, what type of damage would she have faced? Not loved that much in her childhood, with her real mother committing suicide, there's very slight doubt that she slowly went beserk.

Parents are important, they play the biggest role in life and greatly affect mental, physical, financial and career development. When dealt with a tough situation (such as Rika being bullied in school), a child usually can confide into his/her trusted adult. However, Rika dealt with those problems alone. She couldn't balance her persistent emotional pain (distress due to factors such as prolonged anxiety, depression, guilt, anger, loneliness and fear) and thus started having delusions.

As she grew up, she knew that something was wrong with her.

If she haven't suffered from these severe mental illnesses, she would have continued being a caring and kind-natured person, wanting people to achieve happiness.

However, her mind became even more foggy with the death of her dog, Sally. Sally died after getting hit by a car. Sally was blind due to the cataracts in her eyes, and Rika refuse to pay for the surgery. Rika mourned for Sally and blamed herself for Sally's death.

Regretting about what happened, she tried to fix things. As she does so, she probably thought that she permenantly fixed her mistake of being unable to help people. Rika fell deeper and deeper into the delusion of her being a "savior", rescuing people from the pains and sins of the world, that she has great importance and power. This could have come from wanting to change her previous self in her childhood where she believed that she wasn't treasured (e.g., being bullied and Yoosung's aunt telling Rika she regretted adopting her).

Again, this is a theory that is only built on by facts that support it. I'm now going to use a theory by Freud, who's said by mordern psychologists to be a fraud. However, the theories used here are something to consider.

The Id, Ego & Superego (3 parts of the mind)

Babies are born with Id, a selfish desire that typically wants immediate gratification (e.g. wanting to be fed immediately by crying). When they're about 2 years old, they develop the Ego, which operates by the reality principle (to survive, you need to be realistic & plan for the future) & prevents people from following their desires created by Id. The Superego develops around 1-3 years after the Ego, it contains the conscience, valuing morals. The Superego merges between the Id & Ego, it makes the person feel good about doing something right and guilty for something they've done wrong.

How is this related to Rika?

There's a higher chance of a not fully developed Superego if the person doesn't have a good relationship with his/her parents. When applied to criminal behaviour, a not fully developed Superego could account for those who show no guilt or remorse for their crimes.

This could explain why Rika wasn't seen to regret injuring V after a fight they had when Rika broke up with him, even calling him a traitor and says she's glad he's blind as she'll be free to do whatever she wants. In the picture below (which I got from the internet), Rika was seen to be going crazy, hurting V, her own fiancee.

People are saying that even with the past she experience, she shouldn't have created the cult Mint Eye and brainwashed Saeran.

However, she created Mint Eye during her delusions, thinking it was the best choice, wanting to eliminate fear and pain in the world, for Mint Eye to reach a state of happiness in an everlasting party, even better than the RFA parties she hosts.

Remember, she had rejected counseling for her mental illness after taking 3 weeks of it, stating that

So how did she cope with this "darkness" inside her? I'm going to use another one of Freud's theories, the defence mechanism.

The defence mechanism provides ways to unconsciously protect ourselves from unpleasant memories or ideas. However, over-use causes problems.

Rika used a way called Displacement. To take her mind off her past, she diverts her pented up anger from her childhood into another activity. She was frustrated, she took her anger out on Saeran by brainwashing, drugging and tricking him to believe he was abandoned by Saeyoung when they were younger.

She overused this technic a lot, which eventually became what is viewed as bullying, causing Saeran to become very paranoid and angry towards Saeyoung for "abandoning" him, wanting to kill him for revenge.

I believe the reason why Rika tricked Saeran is because she originally wanted the RFA members to join Mint Eye. The anger Saeran had would cause him to better learn about hacking, so he could hack in and make members join Mint Eye (e.g. Yoosung in bad ending). In differing routes, Rika was more set on killing the RFA members and made Saeran set bombs in the apartment.

She regretted her actions (as seen in Secret Ending 1) when she somewhat break through her delusions and came back to partial reality and grieves for V, who died from a gun shot shot by Saeran.

After explaining everything, I'm not trying to justify her behaviour, there are many other people with mental illnesses such as Psychosis and they are nowhere near being like Rika. I'm trying to make people understand it and see why she wasn't trying to be evil.

[mysme-headcanons-galore]

Oh god!! My heart breaks after reading the fic about mc getting into an accident 😢 can you write the alternative ending for this? This fic really deserve a happy ending

Yoosung:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

He didn’t realize he was your emergency contact

He’s in shock for a few minutes and reality doesn’t sink in

And then after a few moments, one thought pops into his head

“I can’t lose another person…”

He rushes to get coat and keys and gets to the emergency room as fast as he can

He gets angrier than anyone’s ever seen him when he can’t get any information on you because they don’t know how you’re doing yet

He sits in the waiting room and calls Jumin because he’s the most logical person and Yoosung needs some reassurance that you’ll be okay

And when Jumin starts giving percentages, he hangs up and calls Zen, because maybe he doesn’t need logical right now, maybe he just needs hope

Zen gives him the hope he needs until a doctor steps out

“Are they okay? What’s going on?”

“They just got through a surgery. We’re going to monitor their progress and we’ll let you know when you can see them.”

“But they’re going to be okay?” Yoosung’s voice was desperate.

“They should be, yes.”

When they told him that you were awake and he could go in to see you, he ran to you, taking your hand and crying.

“I was so scared I was going to lose you and I lost Rika and I can’t lose another person I love.”

Zen hung by the door, a smile on his face at seeing you okay

Yoosung stayed by your side until you were allowed to leave the hospital and then he begged you to come to stay at his house for a while. He took off school until you could take care of yourself for a few hours.

He still stuck by your side when he was home, though

And he was always careful when you left the house. He was terrified of you getting into another accident.

Zen:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery”

Zen drops what he’s doing immediately to rush to the hospital

He gets extremely angry when they can’t tell him any news, but he understands

He paces back and forth in the waiting room, trying to keep control of himself

He learns that the beast can appear in anger, too

He doesn’t call anyone, but he does let everyone know in the messenger

They all want him to talk to them, but he leaves the chatroom and continues pacing

If he thinks about the situation too much, he’s going to get anxious and if he gets anxious, he’s going to start thinking about the worst

So when the doctor comes out, he rushes toward the doctor, begging for news

“Good news! They’ve had a successful surgery. I’ll let you know when you can come in and see them.”

“I want to see them now.”

“I know, sir, but it’s better for their recovery if they can spend some time alone.”

Zen sighed and went back to his pacing. It was more important that you have the space you need to recover.

When he got the okay to go back and see you, he walked into the room slowly, trying not to overwhelm you.

He sits next to you and takes your hand, and doesn’t leave unless you tell him you want to be alone

When you’re cleared to leave the hospital, he takes you to his house so he can help take care of you

Even once you’re all healed, he begs you to tell him wherever you’re going, terrified that you’ll get hurt again

Every time you leave his side in the future, you can see the fear in his eyes, how scared he is that you’ll be hurt again

Jaehee:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery”

She finishes helping customers and closes down the cafe, hurrying to head to the hospital

She waits in the waiting room, anxiety forming in her stomach and her past coming back to haunt her

She calls Zen to talk to because she needs to have an ear to listen

He helps her calm down and reminds her that just because something happened in the past doesn’t mean it’s going to happen again

He helps her stay calm for a while

That is, until the doctor comes in the room

She stays seated until the doctor walks over to her and says, “While they still need a while to recover, we’ve finished the surgery and we believe they’ll be okay.”

She pauses before the tears of relief fall down her face.

She waits for a while longer until you’ve woken up and she can come in and see you

She calmly walks to your room and sits next to you

She asks how you feel and always asks if you need anything

Her calming presence helps you through your recovery and when you’re cleared to leave the hospital, she asks you to go to the bakery with her every day

She does all the work, but she enjoys having you there and wants to make sure you’re taken care of

Even when you start to work again, she makes sure you aren’t overwhelmed and that you get as many breaks as you need

Over time, things in your lives slowly return to normal, the only difference being Jaehee told you how she appreciated you more often

Jumin:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

No.

No, you’re not leaving him, that isn’t allowed.

He finds Driver Kim, who can see the urgency in his face and gets him to the hospital as fast as he can

“We’re here, Mr. Han.” Even though Jumin is already halfway to the door

He heads in and asks every nurse and doctor about information

He even tries to bribe them in his desperation

The logical part of his brain basically turns off

He calls V because his best friend, who has lost the love of his life might be the best person to talk to about it

After V gets Jumin to calm down a bit, the doctor comes out

Jumin starts begging the doctor, before the doctor even says anything

“Please, I’ll take them to another hospital, I’ll pay more money, I’ll do whatever you want”

“Mr. Han, their surgery was successful

“What?”

“They’ll be okay. They just need to recover before you see them.”

Jumin kept himself from crying again as he went to sit down and told V what was happening

He kept talking to V until he was able to enter your room, when he hung up and walked with dignity to your room

He kept himself together until he saw you and burst into tears

“You’re okay…” He whispered

Seeing you in the hospital made him realize how vulnerable you were

He made you promise that you would let him give you a body guard from now on

He also wanted to give you a driver, but he made you take one or the other

Saeyoung:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

He seems to take everything in stride

Even though underneath that facade, he’s panicking

“Are you okay?” Vanderwood asks him

“I’m fine!”

Even though Saeran and Vanderwood both know he isn’t okay

They don’t let him go alone to the hospital, or even drive himself there

He walks in and Saeran gently guides him to the waiting room while Vanderwood asks the doctors for updates

Thank god he has these two or he’d be an absolute mess right now

Though, honestly, they’re both terrified of losing you as well

Saeran whispers to Saeyoung that it’ll be alright and Vanderwood agrees with him, paying attention to Saeyoung’s body language

They’re trying to convince themselves, too, though

Saeyoung tenses when the doctor comes out and Vanderwood stands to talk to him.

“I’ll do it.” Saeyoung wants to hear the verdict for himself

Though the others are close behind him

“They’re going to be okay.” The doctor told them. “They just need a little longer to recover.”

They sigh in relief and nod, thanking the doctor and sitting back down

Saeyoung is super anxious to see you and so was Saeran

Vanderwood helps them both calm down until they can see you

Saeyoung runs into your room as Saeran and Vanderwood walked

Vanderwood hung by the door while the other two sat on either side of you

Saeyoung didn’t eat or sleep, no matter how much you asked him to, until you were able to go home

He asked you to move into the bunker while you were in recovery and he and Vandy took turns taking care of you

He asks you to keep living with them even after you’re better and is secretly glad this at least gave him a reason to spend more time with you

V:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

He heads to the hospital after notifying Seven and Jumin

He asks Jumin to meet him there

He can’t find anything out about you and tries to stay calm

Jumin arrives and they sit in the waiting room patiently

They reminisce about their childhood as Jumin’s way of helping keep V’s mind off of everything

“Remember when you drove your toy car into the side of my house?”

“Yes.” Cue chuckling.

“You’re still a horrible driver.”

They continue talking until V pauses with a sigh. “Thank you for being here, Jumin.”

“Of course. That’s what friends do, V.”

As the words leave Jumin’s mouth, the doctor comes out.

The childhood friends head to the doctor together.

“MC has finished their surgery and will be ready for visitors in a few hours.”

V thanked the doctor and went to sit down until he was able to see you

Once he could, he walked to your room, followed by Jumin, who stood in the doorway and, seeing V’s relief, had a calm smile on his face

V stayed by your side day and night, sleeping in the hospital until you were released.

He asked you to stay at his place until you were fully recovered and by the end of your recovery, you knew you weren’t going to want to leave.

And you didn’t. There was never a conversation, you just slowly ended up moving more and more of your things into his place and eventually he advised you to stop paying for your place.

Saeran:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

Actually? He’s kind of scary

He’s angry and it shows

How dare the world put his MC in danger!

He swoops into the hospital like a bat out of hell and demands to know what’s going on

Luckily, Saeyoung is with him and tries to keep him some semblance of calm

Saeran lashes out at Saeyoung, which is fine with Saeyoung, as long as he isn’t lashing out at hospital staff

Finally, Saeyoung manages to talk some sense into Saeran.

“Would MC want to see you acting like this?”

“…No.”

“Alright, so why don’t we take a deep breath and calm down?”

“…Fine.”

The doctor came out and Saeyoung grabbed Saeran’s waist and made him slow down while he walked.

Saeran fought against Saeyoung, wanting to run to the doctor.

“MC’s surgery is finished. They’ll be okay, they just need some time to recover.

Saeyoung had to hold a tighter grasp on his brother when Saeran tried to go into the room you were in

He actually, literally had to pick Saeran up and carry him back to the chair, with Vanderwood’s help.

They actually draped him across both of their laps, holding him down until the doctor came in and said they could go see you

They finally let him go and he ran in to see you, sitting in the chair by your side and fussing over you, “How are you? Can I get you anything? Do you need me to do anything for you?”

“Saeran, give them some space.” Saeyoung said from a few feet away.

Saeran tells his brother matter-of-factly that you’d be staying with them for a while, before even asking you

When you were released from the hospital, they took you back to the bunker and you ended up not leaving, even after you were recovered. You kept your apartment, but you usually slept at the bunker.

Vanderwood:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

Tries to act like he doesn’t care

Because you’re the only one who he ever showed his true emotions to

He goes to the hospital, without telling Saeyoung

Sits quietly, patiently while the surgery is happening

His mind was going in so many different directions, but he had training from the agency and even the other people in the waiting room were curious about the man who stared straight ahead.

He couldn’t imagine losing you, after you had forced your way through his walls.

He still couldn’t believe he found a person who he couldn’t stay away from. And now he couldn’t lose you.

So when the doctor came out and told Vanderwood, “They’re okay, they just need to recover from the surgery a bit before you can go in.”

He nearly collapsed to the ground in relief, but he held himself together and sat back in the chair.

He didn’t like to let anyone see his emotions aside from you.

So he knew he had to try to keep his cool when the doctor came back out to tell him you were ready.

He headed into your room and unloaded on you. He closed the hospital door and sat next to you, taking your head and bawling.

“Are you okay?” You ask.

“I was so scared I would lose you...” He replied.

He took you back to his house and would take you with him to the bunker. He drove you to the store and wherever else you wanted to go. He didn’t let you leave his side for quite a few months.

Rika:

“MC has been in an accident and is going into surgery.”

She rushes down to the doctor part of Magenta, because that’s where she demands they do your surgery

You’re the only person who’s been able to connect with her on a serious level

You don’t need to hide behind being the sun or the elixir and she loves you for it

She stays in the room the entire time they do your surgery

“The surgery is over, Savior, but they won’t wake up for a bit longer. They should probably be left alone.”

“I won’t bother them.”

The doctors and nurses leave the room and she stays in until you wake up, when she asks if you need anything.

A doctor comes in to give you pain medicine and she watches closely.

Over the next few months, she watches you to make sure you don’t need any more medical attention.

Prompt: He was your strength, your power. He was your soulmate, the one you were fated to be with, and you stuck to him until you couldn’t anymore.

oneshot // fluff // angst // 5k words // unedited

a/n: a silly little thing i wrote while also trying to cram my other requirements. it’s pointless, but i decided to post it, anyway. inspired by namjoon’s letter, even if i forgot about the main idea. i just remembered, “be that ‘him’, who is also strong.”

freshman year

“Yah, yah, stop it, Yoosung,” you said, swatting the boy away when he tried to feed you mushrooms, something you despised with your very being. He dropped the mushroom, thankfully, on his bowl. Your other friend, Hwaein, looked at you two with a big grin.

You got distracted by her suspiciously large grin, and when you opened your mouth to say something, some slimy thing was placed in your mouth, on your tongue, right where you can taste it. Almost immediately, you spit it out, trying to mask the taste with some coke. Hwaein and Yoosung burst out laughing at your reaction, and you glared at them.

“Ah, you guys are so annoying...” you muttered, wiping your mouth with a napkin.

“What was that, (Y/N)ie? How did the mushroom taste?” Hwaein asked in a teasing tone. You rolled your eyes at them, and stood up. The girl stopped laughing and her mouth formed a pout. “Aww, don't be so down. We were just joking.”

“I'm going to the comfort room,” you announced, and when you were halfway through the diner because for some reason, the comfort rooms were at the back, you collided into someone. Your face immediately hurt, and you rubbed your face while stuttering out apologies of your own.

“I'm so, so sorry, oh no... ” you said, checking if he had any spills on his body or any food he dropped. When you checked that there were none, you had looked up into his eyes. They were a gentle dark brown, and you could see that he was checking if you were injured or anything. You felt a slight spark when he met your eyes as well. “Are you okay?”

“I'm supposed to ask if you're okay,” he said, a small twinkle of something in his eyes. The words sounded familiar, and, when your brain was trying to remember, your sleeve rode up, the same words plastered on your wrist. His eyes shifted to your arm, and you followed his gaze. And suddenly, you remembered.

How could you even forget your own soulmate's first words to you?

“Ah—I...” you felt heat creep up your neck, and in no time, your cheeks were red. He probably memorized the words that were plastered onto his own wrist, unlike you. “I'm (L/N) (Y/N).”

“I'm Yoon Jeonghan,” he told you, a small smile adorning his face and making your heart flutter. You smiled back at him, and somehow, you knew that memories with him would be priceless. He seemed to be thinking of something else, until he finally spoke again. “Would you... like to get coffee this Saturday? Are you free by then?”

“Yeah, I would like that,” you said. Once the two of you exchanged numbers, you went back to your seat after going to the comfort room. Jeonghan was nowhere to be seen, and you conluded that he left. Yoosung prodded at you.

“You're glowing. What, did something happen?” he asked. Of course you looked like you were glowing, you just met your soulmate. And it was so...

“Dreamy.”

“What?”

“Dreamy. That's what I'll use to describe his eyes,” you said, taking a seat and looking out the window. Your mind drifted back to his eyes, his face, and the way he smiled. The butterflies in your stomach were making a mess again, and this time, it was finally because of your soulmate.

“What's gotten into you?” Hwaein asked, reaching from across the table to place a hand on your forehead. She raised an eyebrow at you. Your temperature seemed fine, but your eyes had a faraway look in them. And you were just describing someone's... eyes. She gasped. “No way. You met your soulmate, didn't you? Oh my god, she's not responding... Yoosung, she met the one!”

You met with Jeonghan that weekend as promised, in the cafe that served the best cinnamon rolls and had the best ambiance for meet-ups. It was like a dream-come-true, and your soulmate looked dashing. Apparently, he was a trainee at PLEDIS, and he even invited you to watch a show called Seventeen TV. You giggled at his advertisment.

“Okay, I'll be sure to watch it, Jeonghan-ssi,” you said, deciding to humor him and go along with it, but even you knew that when you got home, you'd be opening your laptop and looking for a show like that. It was somehow so easy to forget he was your soulmate, and you treated him like a new friend.

“You'll like seeing me on screen,” he said, once again shamelessly promoting himself. Under that gentle and caring demeanor, there was really just a guy who wanted to be pampered, too, and it made you feel special now that he was showing this side to you so quickly. Maybe it was because you were his one and only soulmate. “Hey, this is awkward... but I gotta go. I'll see you next week, maybe?”

Your freshman year ended with you and Jeonghan in giggles, with him presenting some gifts during Valentine's and you presenting him chocolates that weren't too sweet, as he liked, on White Day. By the end of the spring semester, you two would walk around with hands linked together and small, shy “I love you”s that were accompanied with blushes and the two of you would promise to see each other, despite the clashing schedules.

sophomore year

“How was class today?” Jeonghan asked as soon as you got beside him, smiling at you with those gentle and caring eyes that you grew to adore. You found his hand and squeezed it.

“It was alright, thank you,” you said, giving him a smile that rivalled his. You played with his hand while walking to your apartment, and you were suddenly confused as to why he was here. “Wait, aren't you supposed to be training right now? Why are you here? How did you pick me up at school? And why are we walking to my apartment?”

He stopped walking and he tapped on your nose. “Too many questions, (Y/N)ie. I'm given off-days from time to time, too, you know,” he said. He started walking again without warning, and you had to catch up to him by running. You tugged on the sleeve of his jacket that was perfect for the crisp autumn weather.

“I know this is such a downer, but it's almost midterms for the fall semester, and... I wanted some help, you know? Could you... help me some time?” you asked. You knew it was such a boring activity, and you immediately regretted asking him. Jeonghan was your boyfriend, not your classmate! You could've asked Hwaein, or--

“Of course,” he said, tilting his head that made him look so cute and endearing, but you also knew that he was probably curious about your expression right now. You had a tendency to display your feelings and emotions, and he might've sensed your hesitation. “What's wrong with that?”

“It's just that it's so boring, and it's probably a burden, anyway,” you said automatically, and you almost wanted to curl up into a ball. You didn't mean for your thoughts to get out, especially those ones. “I, uh, meant...”

He gripped your hand tightly. “Don't say that,” he said, a sad tone in his voice but you didn't really notice it. You were still too busy mulling over your mistake and his words startled you. “You're not a burden to me, and I enjoy being with you. Even if it's just studying. You have to study for your midterms, anyway. You enjoy that 4.0 GPA, and if you still want to, you have to study.”

“Thank you,” you said in a hushed tone, still too embarrassed to say anything else. He heard it, and he just held your hand tighter. He never wanted you to feel that you were a burden to him, or even just think about it.

A week after you asked him about, they were thankfully given more free time. The why always lingered in Jeonghan's thoughts, but he knew better than to question it. After all, it was more time to see you. He texted you, telling you that he was free and ready to review with you. You replied with a “Hannie! Oh, thank you so much! Let's meet up in front of the apartment, okay? I love you!” and he mentally read it with your voice.

As much as he was shy about it, your confessions made his heart pound and his words get all tangled up together, but he loved everything about it. He loved everything about you, he decided. He bought some food from the convenience store, and patiently wait for you in front of the apartment, like what you told him to do.

You eventually showed up, panting and gasping for air. He stood up from the bench he was sitting on, and he coaxed you into sitting with him. “I...ah! Ran all the way,” you confessed, giving him a proud smile. “'I'm fit now! I didn't want to keep you waiting.”

“Aish, you're not fit, you're exhausted,” he said, waiting for you to breathe normally before handing you a drink from the bag of food he had bought. “Here, drink some. When you're ready, let's go and study, hmm?”

During that study session, you told him about the annual Halloween party at your friend's house, and invited him. You two figured you would go in a couple costume, and the two of you were still thinking of what to wear after studying for midterms. A brilliant idea popped up into your head as Jeonghan was cooking dinner for both of you.

When you arrived at Sunhee's party, your friends couldn't help but applaud your choice: you were a blanket, and Jeonghan was a pillow. A concept that both of you appreciated because your love of sleeping was overwhelming. Saeyoung, a mutual friend of Yoosung and yourself, approached the two of you.

“Well, if it's isn't (Y/N)!” he greeted, a bag of the chips he loved so much in his hands. He recently came back from schooling abroad, but now that he was here, you were genuinely excited to see him. “Oh, it's your soulmate, too! I've only heard about him in calls with Yoosung.”

“Ha! He's even better in real life,” you said, momentarily forgetting that your boyfriend was right there. You were about to give him more comments when Jeonghan cleared his throat.

“I never knew you thought of me that way, (Y/N),” he teased, and you turned red from embarrassment. “Thank you.”

“Ick, don't do this in front of me,” Saeyoung said, feigning a disgusted face. “Chanmyeonnie hasn't arrived yet, so excuse me if I'm bitter,” and waltzed away, leaving you and Jeonghan alone in the crowd.

The sophomore year drew to an end when you studied for the spring midterms again, of course with Jeonghan, and you maintained that 4.00 GPA that you worked hard for. While you were proud of yourself, you were proud of Jeonghan, too, for sticking with you and tolerating you and your existence. Some soulmate he was.

junior year

You and Jeonghan spent less time with each other now, since he had officially made his debut with a group called Seventeen, and in no time, you were a fan. You always loved Jeonghan's voice, and now that he was becoming an idol himself, you felt as if you two had come a long way. You snapped out of your thoughts when Jeonghan's voice brought you back to life.

“Jagi?” he called out, his sleepy voice bringing you of out your own sleepy trance. “It's getting late already. Why don't I meet with you tomorrow, hm? You should get some sleep. I love you.”

You barely processed the words he had just said, but you did hear the last three words. You were on the verge of falling asleep again before you mumbled out a thick “I love you,” that was barely recognizeable. Jeonghan smiled at you fondly before saying “I love you” back and hanging up. Just as the screen of his laptop turned off, Joshua came into the room, lookking confused as to why Jeonghan was still awake when the latter was usually asleep.

“Jeonghan?” Joshua called out, making Jeonghan's head turn to his direction. “Was that (Y/N) just now?”

Jeonghan's mood darkened, knowing how Joshua would react to him talking to you. The company always urged Jeonghan to break up with you, pressuring him because it was always either you or his career. It just so happened that even Joshua would also tell him to stop seeing you. It hurt his heart everytime, but he always wanted to push the idea away and focus on both his career and you.

“You know what PLEDIS always says, Jeonghan,” Joshua said, crossing his arms and giving the boy on the bed a disappointed look. “And I don't know how I'd react to them kicking you out of the group because... because of her.”

“You don't understand, Joshua,” Jeonghan said, slowly getting his frustration and anger to build up. Angry at the company, angry at Joshua, and angry at the circumstances. “(Y/N)'s my soulmate. Even now, we have to see each other every now and then or else we'll get soulsick. She's my everything, can't you see? I love her, and you know that.”

“But you also love your career. You can't keep on avoiding it, Jeonghan. One day, the head will personally come here and tell you everything I've reminded you about,” Joshua retorted, turning his back on Jeonghan and finally exiting the room again. Jeonghan huffed. Why did he even come in there, anyway?

He thought back to Joshua's words. No. He did not want to stop seeing you, especially when you were a year closer to graduating. He wanted to be there when you graduated. He wanted to be there when you reached a milestone in life, and he wanted to be there to support your life after school. He wanted to continue being with you, his soulmate.

You were his soulmate after all, and he was yours. But was there a way to stop being soulsick when the two of you were away for so long?

Jeonghan shook his head, not even wanting to know the answer to that question, and quickly willed himself to sleep. Joshua hasn't even gotten the chance to meet his soulmate anyway, who was he to judge how it would feel to have a soulmate?

“(Y/N)ie! How are things going?” Saeyoung exclaimed, his arms linked with Chanmyeon's. The girl greeted you silently with a nod of her head, but she still smiled at you. Chanmyeon was an odd girl, usually quiet but she had the strangest things to say. Nevertheless, you took a liking to her, since she got Saeyoung out of a bad mood and always made him happy. The two were clearly soulmates.

“I'm fine, and I could see that you and Chanmyeon are doing well, too,” you cooed. You were waiting for Hwaein and Yoosung—they always took too long, damn it, but they'd always show up late with ruffled clothes and unruly hair. Saeyoung and you rolled your eyes at them, but Chanmyeon just blushed. “Huh, look at these two lovebirds. C'mon, we're going to miss the Christmas marathon the cinema is holding.”

“Why? Where's Jeonghan, anyway?” Hwaein asked. You felt your heart drop at the mention of the name, and the answer was stuck in your throat. He bailed out, said he was too busy, you wanted to say, but you knew better than to antagonize him in that way.

“He had to take care of some things,” even you cringed at the words, but you were quick to cover it up. “Don't worry, he said he'll be home by Christmas eve. He wouldn't miss Christmas with me for anything, you know.”

“You can always tell us if he's ignoring you, (Y/N),” Yoosung said. “Hwaein gets real angry whenever I ditch her, so I feel like you're angry and hurt, too. Our presence isn't as good as a soulmate's, but hey, at least we're here to cheer you up.”

You smiled at his offer, but you waved your hand as if to dismiss the topic. “It's really alright. Now, let's go see those movies!”

Jeonghan did appear on Christmas eve, but he seemed to be more distracted than ever. You didn't nag him about it, even though you were concerned, because you didn't want to be that clingy girlfriend. Eventually, though, you had to ask him about it.

Junior year ended with a faraway look in your boyfriend's eyes, and a doubting look in yours. However, you're not supposed to doubt him, since you were soulmates after all. The two of you were fated to be together, and you weren't as unlucky as the people who had soulmates that had passed away or had fallen in love with the wrong people. You were thankful for that, and you hoped he was, too.

senior year

To say you were stressed was an understatement. You were beyond just frazzled, and you were so close to pulling all your hair out when your professor squeezed in just another presentation last-minute the day before your oral defense for the thesis. You were close to tears, and even if Hwaein and Yoosung tried their best to console you, all you wanted were Jeonghan's comforting words.

Speaking of Jeonghan...

He still hasn't replied to your text that you sent a couple of hours ago, which was slowly becoming normal for both of you. Surprisingly, you weren't starting to get soulsick, unlike that time you didn't see him for two days and suddenly you felt sick. It was like your connection to Jeonghan was being ripped apart, piece by piece, and the worst thing was it wasn't even on top of your priorities now.

After all, it didn't seem like you were on top of priorities either. Seventeen was growing in popularity, and it would only make sense he's busy promoting and trying to balance a lot of things in his life. Not that he couldn't, but you knew it was hard being an idol. Still, you wished he would sometimes spend time with you, even call for at least 3 minutes before leaving again. But now? He wouldn't even talk to you, and this had been going on for, you don't know, weeks?

Your phone buzzed just as you finished the presentation, and your eyes widened at the time: 1:05 am. And your jaw dropped when you saw that Jeonghan texted you back, even at an ungodly hour.

From: Hannie

Hey, I'm sorry I wasn't able to reply. Can we just talk tomorrow morning?

You tried your best not to cry, but you were tired, stressed, and ready to bitch to him when he just... rejects it? You felt hot tears well up, and you guessed that it was better if you didn't reply, anyway. You were too drained for this, for dealing with him.

You would just take what you can get from Hwaein and Yoosung.

The next day wasn't any better. Your presentation had gone well, and so did your oral defense, but Jeonghan's message still left you feeling empty. Hwaein was busy, too, especially with all the stress and requirements from her even worse professors. Yoosung was your best bet right now, but watching him play LoLoL was starting to get boring, as well.

You settled for watching dramas on your laptop, sick of your own drama and life. You watched as a couple's love bloomed, and when it withered, they tried their very best to revive it. Alas, the guy got tired, and left the girl for good. After the short 5 episodes, you were crying your eyes out for the girl, and it got you thinking, what if this happened to me and Jeonghan? Will he, too, leave me alone for good?

You wiped your tears, and cocooning yourself with your soft throw blanket, you stayed in bed like that for a while. The thought of Jeonghan leaving you made you feel numb, and it made you wonder if you could ever live without him.

He barely isn't here anymore, anyway.

“You still haven't broken up with her?”

Jeonghan didn't want this. He didn't want to feel forced to look at the head of PLEDIS, and he didn't want to be forced to choose between his soulmate and his dream. Sure, he wasn't able to see you at all because of his dream, but he knew that even in the middle of all this chaos, he still loved you.

“You know you are jeopardizing your position in Seventeen, yes?” the man asked again. Jeonghan nodded, too anxious to say anything. “Well, I don't want to be that person to make you choose, but what will it be, Jeonghan?”

Jeonghan wanted to screw his eyes shut and drown everything out. Everything boiled down to this moment; everything he worked for and hoped for and he would throw one away just to save the other. And he knew that even if he missed you dearly, he knew that you wouldn't feel proud of him if he chose you over his career. He imagined your sad smile, your eyes that would try and mask the disappointment, and his voice almost faltered when he spoke.

“I'll make sure to leave her as soon as tomorrow.”

You were nervous. Jeonghan had called later that night, after your little drama session, and asked you to meet with him in the park tomorrow morning. You almost didn't reply, but managed to get out a “yes” before he hung up. He hadn't called you or anything until now, and he hadn't especially asked you out on a long time.

Was this it? Was he finally making an effort to revive this withering relationship? You wondered as you walked to the park that morning, hands inside the pockets of your hoodie. From a distance, you could see his figure on a bench. His form was a shape you'd recognize anywhere, and it automatically brought a smile to your face.

You would still be smiling if you hadn't noticed the morose look in his eyes. And finally, you were able to name that distant look you've been seeing since last year. Your mood sank, matching the expression that his eyes had.

“Hannie? What's wrong?” you asked, resisting the urge to place a hand on his shoulder. “'You know you can tell me anything, right?”

“(Y/N),” he started, and you had inkling of what was he going to say. You wanted to avert your gaze, but as if you wanted to play a cruel joke on yourself, you wanted to see his expression when he said it. “I... I want to break up.”

There was it. The slow, but sure breaking of your heart when you heard those words. You wondered why you didn't look away at first, but it hurt to see when he wasn't even crying and you could feel the first few drops on your face already.

“Why?” you heard your voice crack, but you were somehow still steeling yourself for the answer. Jeonghan's eyes finally broke contact with yours, and you knew that it wasn't going to be such a nice answer.

“I fell out of love with you, (Y/N),” he said. “I don't know when, but... I did.”

You bit your tongue, trying to not answer back. You realized you wouldn't be able to get any words out other than an “okay”, anyway, especially with that lump that formed in your throat. You sniffed, bowing and leaving the park before you could cause a scene. It was so anticlimactic, so disappointing, and you wished your relationship didn't end like this with him.

When you had disappeared from Jeonghan's sight, though, he finally let out a small sob, and then the huge drops of tears came rolling down his cheeks. He didn't mean to hurt you, or to tell you that. He had meant to tell the truth, but for some reason, his words didn't match with the ones he wanted to say. He wanted to scream your name, call you back and hold you in his arms, and then reassure you that he would never fall out of love with you.

He knew that you were probably out there, beyond stressed and not knowing what to do anymore, and he felt even guiltier. He didn't deserve you. Why was he your soulmate? He ruined you a month before your graduation, too. A milestone he said he'd celebrate with you, and be proud of you when you finally finished. And the thought made him cry harder, not caring about the stares of strangers in the park.

He promised to love you forever, and even if you were convinced he didn't anymore, he knew that he would still continue to love you.

present

You sat in a booth of the quaint cafe that sold not only the best cinnamon rolls, but they also mastered the art of making banana cakes. Everytime you came here, you'd remember when you and Jeonghan first had a date. You smiled sadly at the memory, which was a long time ago and was only just a memory now. You couldn't relive it anymore even if you wanted to.

It was midnight, yet the cafe didn't close until the wee hours of the morning, open for the people who were nocturnal or the people who needed a quiet place to think. There were at most three or four customers inside, with you included. A young couple was sitting in the back, talking to each other, and another man was sitting in a booth, engrossed in a book that was in his hands.

The usual night shift waiter, Gayeon, brought you a plate of a cinnamon roll that you didn't remember paying for. “Don't worry, it's on me,” he said, winking at you and sliding the cake to you. “You stay here sometimes, and until such hours, too. I bet you needed this food.”

“Thank you,” you told him, and he walked away, leaving you alone once more. You stared at the food, ready to eat it. As soon as you cut a piece of it, though, the bell of the cafe tinkled, and you automatically looked up to see who it was.

You didn't even think twice about trying to seclude yourself from his view as much as possible, squeezing in deeper into the booth. You heard that voice order something, and there was a soft patter of feet that stopped at your booth.

“(Y/N)-ssi,” the voice greeted, and you felt obligated to look up and stare at those same gentle eyes that held the somber look two years ago. “Can I sit here?”

You stared at him, not trusting your voice to speak, and yet he sat across you. His gaze was powerful this time, though, and he was able to hold yours. And suddenly, you felt the anger rise within you. You were even shocked when he had the audacity to even greet you as if nothing ever happened between the two of you.

“How are you--”

“How dare you,” you spat out, and you desperately wished you would stop before you caused a scene, but you needed this. The proper closure that Jeonghan neglected to give you was going to be wrenched out of him. “How dare you come here and think you can do whatever the fuck you want?”

“I...” his soft voice trailed off, leaving you more frustrated and confused.

“You—you were supposed to be my soulmate,” you said, this time the one to have a strong gaze. “And you tell me you fell out of love? Tell me, what was it? What made you fall out of love with me?”

“You won't understand, (Y/N)-ssi,” Jeonghan said, flinching when you scoffed.

“Like hell I would, Yoon Jeonghan!” you said, your words dripping with venom. “You left me! I couldn't think straight for weeks, and when it was time for graduation, I was barely happy. This—this is all your fault! You don't leave someone with an explanation, Jeonghan, it'll make them think they've done something wrong their whole lives!”

“You haven't done anything wrong, (Y/N)!” he finally retorted. You immediately shut up, startled by the sudden outburst. You were still quietly fuming, but you thought it's be better if you listened to him now. “I was the one who was in the wrong. They forced me to choose between you and my career! I wanted to choose you, but I knew you'd be disappointed that I never got my dream because of you!

“Even for months after we broke up, I couldn't stop having nightmares about you. They'd start out sweet and innocent, but then they'd turn horrifying. The members... they keep on saying that I'd sometimes scream your name in my sleep, too. If you thought I wasn't suffering, then you're... wrong.” he said. He took in the tears that were rolling down your previously rosy cheeks, and he wonders if he's the reason why there weren't any colors left.

“I have never stopped loving you, (Y/N). No matter what the company makes me do, because in the end, I'll always be yours. Falling out of love with you was a lie, and I didn't even know why I said it,” Jeonghan confessed. “I love you so much it hurts. It felt incredibly numbing when I thought I'd lost you, my soulmate, forever.”

As you cried, you felt his arms wrap around you in a warm, comforting embrace. You cried harder in his arms, and he just held you tighter. It was as if the spark that you felt when you first met was there again. “Yoon J-Jeonghan, I hate you so much.”

He felt his heart drop again, and the unwelcomed heaviness settled in the pit of his stomach. “I'm really sorry, (Y/N). I promise I'll be better,” he said. He would take whatever you'd give, even if you didn't want him back. “... will you take me back, (Y/N)?”

You choked on a sob before punching his back lightly. “God, you're such an idiot. I... don't know if I have the energy to let you, Jeonghan,” you said. “You're still an idol, and one with growing popularity. PLEDIS won't agree to this.”

“I know, but this time, I want to make it work. An effort to make it work,” Jeonghan said. “PLEDIS saw how much it affected me, anyway. We are soulmates after all.”

You smiled at him, despite the runny nose and the tear streaks on your cheeks. “I'm willing to let you try again, Jeonghan.”

The night ended with you in his arms again, hanging out in your apartment after the cafe had to close down for the night. The two of you were emotionally and physically drained, and resorted to just lying down on your bed. You didn't care if the two of you weren't together again yet, you just wanted to feel safe in his arms again.

He was your both your strength and weakness, after all.

20 Seconds of Bravery Ch 23

Sorry updates are taking so long >.< I’ve been busy going to various graduation parties for family members

First       Previous       Next

      V's father was standing right in front of me and I had no idea what to say. He had asked me a question but I hadn't done anything but stare at him. "Um yes. Sorry I didn't realize you were coming." I took a deep breathe and tried to smile but his facial expression remained stern. "I can take you to him if you want." My voice sounded so small and I was kicking myself for it. V's father nodded and I turned back around to head back towards the room. I knocked on the door and heard V tell us to come in. When I walked into the room I could see the slight shock on Jumin's face, but he quickly recovered.

"How did your phone call go MC?" I let out a nervous laugh.

"I didn't make it. Instead I ran into your father." V's shoulders straightened up once I said that. He stood up and held his hand out to me. I took it in an instant and he leaned on me.

"Hello Father. Why are you here?" His father seemed to stiffen at his question.

"My secretary was informed that you were having surgery so naturally I was concerned." V let out of sigh but I didn't understand it.

"I'm assuming that you had something to do with this Jumin." I looked over at Jumin and he was almost smirking.

"I will neither confirm or deny that, but MC and I will step outside so you two can talk." Before I could say anything in protest Jumin was pulling me out of the room and out into the hallway. He stuck his head into the door to say one last thing but I could barely hear it. Once he closed the door he began to walk down the hall. I was beyond shocked as I chased after Jumin.

"This is going to sound very rude, but what the hell Jumin? Was that really V's dad? Why did you call them here?" I was so full of questions but I stopped when Jumin put his hand on my shoulder.

"They have a lot to talk about. V and his father are very distant and I think it's time they close that gap. Plus I know that my father would want to know if I had a life changing operation. Do you oppose to V seeing his father?"

"Of course not. Everyone should be with their family if they can. I just feel bad about surprising him with it. He's barely been awake for an hour. What if this overwhelms him." I looked back to the room and Jumin sighed.

"I'm sure V will be fine. He may not admit it but he misses his father and I also think his father would want to be part of his son's happiness. That means meeting you and knowing about V's life." I was blushing now as I recalled my encounter with V's father.

"Well I'm positive I already made a terrible first impression." We were now at a vending machine and Jumin was studying it. "Not to mention my appearance. I look like I just rolled out of bed." Jumin glanced at me as I leaned against one of the machines. Thinking more about it I didn't really know anything about V's father. All V had ever told me was that he owned various galleries and other art business. He seemed like a very serious man from what I saw of him. I had never met anyone's parents before. Hell I wasn't even used to the people in my life having parents, let alone such serious ones.

"I don't really see what your appearance has to do with it. You're in a hospital so you're not expected to be dressed in a professional manner." He began trying to put a fifty dollar bill into the vending machine only to have it spat back out.

"Says the man in a suit who is trying to put a fifty dollar bill into a vending machine." I rolled my eyes and handed him a one dollar bill instead. "Use this and then punch in the letter and number of the item you want. I can't believe you've never used a vending machine before." He followed my instructions and seemed almost amazed.

"It's not something I've come across before now. As for the way I'm dressed, it's not necessarily by choice. I was at the office all morning so I didn't really have time to change. Not to mention reporters are still following me ever since it leaked that you're staying at the penthouse." His face had become annoyed as he reached down for his snack. I didn't blame him for being annoyed. Those gossip articles had been such a pain by saying that I was dating Jumin. They all started when Jumin came to the shops grand opening ceremony and offered me a ride home. Even though V was there with me one of the reporters twisted it to look like I was dating Jumin. Ever since then he was constantly being bugged by reporters about it. That's part of the many reasons V's operation was at a hospital two towns away.

"Yeah but my point still stands. You say first impressions matter all the time." We had began walking back towards the room and Jumin was pouting.

"They matter in business. You know that's what I said. This is hardly business. Just don't worry about V's father. Once he actually meets you and talks to you I'm sure you'll charm him." As if on cue we saw V's father leaving the room and heading towards us. He stopped in front of us and shook hands with Jumin.

"It was good to see you Jumin. Tell your father I said hello."

"I will. Also I'm not sure if you were aware but this is MC, Jihyun's girlfriend. She's a very talented web designer and artist." Jumin gestured to me and V's father reached his hand out to me. Just pretend he's a potential client, I said to myself in my head. I shook his hand and smiled at him.

"It's very nice to finally meet you sir." His handshake was firm and he didn't return my smile. He gaze was so stern and I felt like he was judging me. Inside I was freaking out but I somehow managed to hold it together. When he let go of my hand he didn't bother to say anything else as he moved past us. Once he was out of sight I let out a breath. "Well that was interesting. I honestly couldn't tell if he liked me or not." I opened the door to V's room and saw a nurse in there holding some papers. She was obvious to us coming in as she sat on the bed next to V and handed him the papers. It may of just been my insecurities but her hands seemed to linger a bit too long when she did it. I listened to her as she read everything on the papers to V and even as she giggled at some of his comments. Then she put her hand on V's shoulder and kept it there. I cleared my throat and she jumped off the bed. V smiled in my direction

"I was wondering how long you were going to stand there Darling." I couldn't see his eyes but he was clearly amused which means he knew the nurse was flirting with him. I walked over to V and kissed the top of his head. The nurse and I locked eyes but she didn't seem to be intimidated by me. She then bent over and was very close to V's face.

"And lastly here's my personal number if you ever have any questions. You can call me anytime." She shot me one last look and strut out of the room, almost as if she thought she had won. I gently took the papers from V and sneered at the number.

"Well we definitely won't be needing that number." I said scratching it out with a pen. I heard V laugh and I glared at him.

"MC are you jealous?" I blushed at his accusation and held the papers close to my face.

"No! She was just obnoxiously flirting with my boyfriend instead of doing her job." I had never been jealous of anyone in my life and I wasn't about to admit it had just happened, at least not with Jumin there. "So are you all set to leave now?" I was desperate to change the subject.

"Yes as long as you're willing to help me leave." He held out his hands and I helped him up. "I'm supposed to wait for them to bring a wheelchair but we can avoid that if we hurry."

"Alright." Jumin opened the door for us and we headed out. When we finally got to the lobby I really needed to pee. "Jumin can you help V to the car? I need to use the restroom before we leave." Jumin nodded at me and guided V to the car. I walked over to the sign that showed where the restroom was but they were closed for cleaning. I let out a sigh and began to head back to an entrance when I felt someone tug on my arm. It was man about Saeyoung's height with ashy blonde hair. "Do I know you?" I asked trying to pull my arm back. The man just looked at me and and tightened his grip on my arm.

"No but I know very well who you are. We really need to talk so you should just come with me." This time I jerked my arm away and stepped back from him.

"Why the hell would I do that? I don't even know you and my ride is waiting on me." My heart was beginning to race and this guys serious stare didn't help. He stepped closer and whispered in my ear.

"Because if you don't come with me then your car is going to crash and they'll take you by force. Jake knows you're here and I'm supposed to take you to him." I immediately tensed at his words. "Don't worry I'm not going to follow through with my orders. Just call the CEO and tell him you met an old friend. Once you know they're safely home I'll let you go and tell Jake that you got away. You've been training with Jane right?"

"How do I know I can trust you?" My throat was so tight that the words barely came out. The guy let out a sigh and I could tell he was getting frustrated.

"Let's just say that I don't like Jake and I owe Jane a favor. Now make the call before the guy who came with me comes over to make you comply. I'll tell you more once we're in my car. Now make the call." He had grabbed my arm again and was squeezing it. My brain was screaming to kick him and run away but if there was even a chance of V getting hurt I wasn't going to risk it. I pulled out my phone and called Jumin.

"Hey Jumin. I ran into an old classmate from school so I'm going to catch up with him. Go ahead and take V back to the penthouse.

"Are you sure MC? Do you want me to send a car back fro you?" I could hear V's voice in the background asking questions. It broke my heart to lie to them but I had no choice.

"No they'll bring me back after it's done. Just let me know when you guys get back to the penthouse. Tell V I love him if you don't mind."

"I will. Please let me know if you need a car or anything else. Goodbye."

"Good bye." I hung up the phone and the guy began to drag me towards the parking garage. "Do I at least get to know the name of my kidnapper?" We stopped next to a black car and he faced me.

"It's Gavin. Now be quite and just do what I tell you to." He opened the trunk of the car and pulled out a roll of duct tape and a a blind fold. "Don't worry I'll let you out as soon as I can. Now turn around." I did as he said and he put the blind over my eyes. He took my hands and folded them behind my back and I felt him tape them together. My heart was going nuts and I was beginning to panic. He walked me around the car a bit and I heard the door open. "Lay down. Jake's going to call soon so act scared."

"Like that's hard to do." I said as he closed the car door. I heard it open again as he settled into the front seat.

"Oh I almost forgot about your mouth. It will look suspicous if I don't." I tried to sawllow the knot in my throat as he pressed the tape on to my mouth. It was quite for a moment before I heard the car door open again and heard a new voice.

"Damn that Ricky is a pain. He left with a damn nurse and took the keys with him. So did you get the girl?"

"She's in the back seat. I'm just waiting on the boss to call and check in. What am I supposed to do with you? Boss said only I should go to the safe house cause three will look suspicious." The frustration in Gavin's voice was obvious.

"I guess you'll have to ask him." He let out whistle and I felt someone move hair out of my face. I instantly moved away and the new voice laughed. "Damn she's hot. Think the boss will let us as some fun with her before he comes to get her?" He sounded almost excited and a whimper escaped me.

"I guess you'll have to ask him. For now just leave her alone. She belongs to the boss."

"I know but nothing turns me on more that a tied up girl. They just look so helpless." I didn't know who this other guy was but I could tell that he was as sick as Jake. I also knew that Jake had no problem sharing me with his 'friends' as long as he got his hands on me. While I was lost in my thoughts Gavin's phone began to rind and snapped me out of it.

"Hey boss. I got the girl but Ricky ditched Nathan. Should I still go to the safe house?"

"Let me see her." Jake's voice shot through me like cold steel. My breathing became erratic and I didn't feel like I was getting enough air. "Perfect. Take her to the safe house and I'll meet you there in three hours. You two may do with her as you please until I get there. Just don't over do it."

"Alight! You're the best boss. I promise not to break her before you get there." Nathan was laughing as the car began to move. I still didn't know if I could trust what Gavin said but it looked like now I had no choice. I just hoped he could get me out of there before Nathan got to me.

MC as Veronica in Heathers: Saeyoung

@sugaismyhigh/ @god7072therescue HEY GIRL! Here’s a little Christmas gift for you since I’ve made you wait long enough :)) Hope you like it!

Saeyoung

Okay so you wouldn’t let him research this again because you want him to be surprised

He doesn’t know how to feel about Zen acting with you

The thought of another guy touching you and professing his love to you, even if fake, isn’t exactly appealing to him

But Zen’s his friend and he knows you love him so he just chills and decides he’ll enjoy the show

Beautiful —lololol your character is funny and witty, just like him you

And that costume when you ‘transform’ into a Heather~

You can bet he’ll have a red coat and a plaid mini-skirt made just for him

I am the true Heather, bitches

Candy Store —is his new anthem. He will memorize those moves and make you see that he’s the true Heather~

Fight For Me —oh look, there’s Zen!!!

He’s laughing because the scene is HILARIOUS

And he loves the pauses and the slow motion stuff —it’s gold

He loves this song because Zen’s acting is so good and you’re so funny as you pine for him but it’s supposedly all happening in your head???

He will make sure you pine for him when you get home though ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

Freeze Your Brain —a song about Slurpees are you kidding me???

Applauds Zen for doing a good job on this one

Although was it just him or does Zen’s character sound a little…unhinged?

Big Fun — wow are normal teenagers always so horny???

He can’t take his eyes off of you though as you dance around and act like you’re drunk and high

God you’re so dorky and so good —this boy is so in-love with you

Dead Girl Walking —he’s as red as his hair

ZEN HOW DARE YOU BETRAY ME

fja;ldfjakdjfa;df ZEN YOU WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF 707

Oh God the way you roll your hips makes him adjust his pants though

He just wishes you weren’t doing that to Zen!

And Zen’s face is right in front of your boobs!!!!

He doesn’t know what’s worse, having you do that with Zen, someone he’s known for a while now, or some other guy that he doesn’t know and he can easily delete from the world

Decides it’s worse that you’re doing to Zen, because now his friend would know how you look like half-naked and how the hell does Zen not have a boner??? Saeyoung's hot girlfriend is having fake sex with him???

He sighs and lets it pass though; he knows you love doing theater and all the sex scenes are part of the play

As long as you’re okay with it and Zen keeps his hands to himself he’s fine with it too

W H O A you killed Heather Chandler??? YES IT’S HIS CHANCE TO BECOME THE HEAD HEATHER

Whoa wait, Zen’s character asks you to forge a suicide letter

Zen’s character is the villain???

Blue —he actually gets worked up on this song because WHAT. THE. HELL.

Just the thought of you and rape in the same sentence makes him want to pull out his rifle and shoot people

He’s praying your character doesn’t actually get raped because he will lose his shit

Blue balls? Lol if you touch MC I’ll put your balls in the freezer and show you how blue they can be

The whole school branded you as a slut and he can’t wait to see how Zen reacts

Zen tells you he loaded the guns with fake bullets??

Oh whoa you’re seducing the jocks and Saeyoung has a bad feeling of what’s coming next

Zen kills the jocks?

BEST MUSICAL EVER 10 OUT OF 10

Because that’s exactly what Saeyoung would have done to those fucked up boys

Those boys signed their death warrants when they tried to rape you and then they humiliated you in front of the whole school

Our Love is God —OH-KAY. Zen’s character is a psychotic messed up kid. And he has you in a sort of choke hold and he is scaring you

Saeyoung has to remind himself that Zen is his friend and is nothing like JD. That he’s not really hurting you

His muscles are still tense though, ready to jump into action the moment he feels that you’re not safe

Thank God there's an intermission after that, he manages to relax during the break

Dead Gay Son —elbows Jumin and says, “Hey Jumin, I bet your dad would still love you even if you came out of the closet~”

DEATH GLARES FROM JUMIN FOR THE REST OF THE MUSICAL

Seventeen —oh God, JD’s mother was murdered by his father

Saeyoung grows quiet and he watches as you sing about wanting a normal life

“If you could let me in, I could be good with you” —he remembers the time he pushed you away and he feels terrible all over again

He’s damaged goods, he knows that

But he’s so glad you chose him

Makes a mental note to research this song when he gets home

Lifeboat —he went to college earlier than the other kids and he didn’t hang out with a lot of people so he never thought some kids would actually feel pressured to kill themselves?

His thoughts go to his brother and he feels worse now

Shine A Light Reprise —you save the Heather McNamara though and Saeyoung can’t help but grin; because you saved him and Saeran from spiraling down an endless black hole too

Your best friend attempted to kill herself and oh my God things are looking bad

Then JD breaks into your house and Saeyoung is awed at how good Zen’s acting skills have gotten

Oh God the memes he’ll make from Zen’s expressions though

Meant to Be Yours —JD is crazy

Oh God, he built a bomb? But sings about his love for you? He’s loving it

This musical is so different —it’s darker than your usual roles and it’s messed up on so many levels that he wonders why you chose this part

The thought of you in danger always puts him on edge, even if it’s fake but it helps that Zen is the one playing JD; he knows Zen will never hurt you

And then he stops breathing when the spotlight hits you and you’re dangling from a noose

MC, no!

He knows it’s all an act but his tears still sting his eyes and he’s gripping his seat and he’s not breathing because he can’t take this

He works so hard to protect you because he never wants you to get hurt and seeing you in a noose —it breaks his heart

It can’t end this way

He’s able to relax when you open your eyes and chase after Zen but Saeyoung already makes a promise with himself that he will never push you away again or make you feel bad

That he’ll always give you his love and support

Just please God never let me see her like that ever again

He loves the rest of the show though and is glad when Zen decides to blow himself up rather than hurt you

And when he sees the ending and how you make things right with Martha, he understands why you chose that role

Because like JD sang, everyone was damaged, but you were not beyond repair; and you did the right thing in the end

Bonus: Remember Seventeen? He does everything in the song that your character sings about: You guys see bad movies, drink beer while watching TV, bake brownies and go bowling, go camping, play strip poker, eat chili fries, and go dancing

Because he wants to be with you

Not just tonight, but forever <3

Request: The RFA + Saeran reacting to MC being their soulmate ( w/ the soulmate AU where if you write on yourself it shows up on your soulmate as well) What would they have written back and fourth or doodled on themselves as well?? (thank you in advance I love your blog)

ahhh thank you so much for sending this request it was super funto write >:3 

so since it’s an AU, basically everyone knows about thisphenomenon and all is well and swell

YOOᔕᑌᑎG:

So it goes like this

Yoosung has an important secret meeting with his guild, and hewrites the time/date/location on the back of his hand

But when the time comes for the meeting to start, there’s anunknown character in their midst

Immediately, everyone thinks you’re an enemy spy, but you’rejust trying to tell them that all the information just showed up on your handthe other day and you decided to check it out

“That’s impossible,” Yoosung began angrily, his whole plan tokeep the meeting a secret had gone to waste. “The location can’t justmagically appear on –”

He stopped himself

Wait…wait a second

is this…what I think it is? Is it possible???

Yoosung starts to get really red inthe face, and he asks you exactly what day the message appeared on your hand

“I think about two days ago, at around seven pm?”

Yoosung’s having a mental breakdown

Okay, just a moment.  I need to test it, I need to make surethis is real, he thinks to himself. 

But he has to come up with something that you wouldn’t be ableto normally guess

So he writes a sentence on his hand, and asks you to tell him ifit appears on your hand too

Yes

O-okay…what does it say? Yoosung has troublebreathing

“I have a crush on…MC?”

Yoosung’s pretty sure something exploded nearby

whoops maybe that was just his brain

cannot compute

the sky is falling, people are screaming

actually wait no

that’s just Yoosung

screaming alone in his room

whAT iS HAppEnING W H A T???? 

Your character logs out, and an hour passes by, Yoosung havingmigrated under his covers

He reaches out his hand, so that the sunlight illuminated theconfession he had written

But there’s new writing, one that is not of his own

“Haha,” it read, “I have a crush on you too(//>w/)”

Let’s just say Yoosung becomes a mini-whirlwind as he zoomestowards Saeyoung’s house to find out wear you live

You bet baby sunshine is a blushing mess when he arrives at yourdoor, but the kiss he plants on your cheek is the most gentle of things

You can still feel the delicate shape of his lips lingering onyour face hours after he had left

ᘔEᑎ:

While practicing his lines, he wrote a few of them on his arm tohe could read them without having to carry around the script everywhere he went

The first time poetic verses started blooming across your skin,you just assumed that your soulmate was some sort of ridiculously romanticperson 500% true though

You never really wrote anything back because what was there tosay?

Except you had just finished reading Shakespeare for a class atschool, and you were feeling more than a little inspired

So there Zen is, reciting his lines alone in his room, when wordsthat he had not written appears on his other arm

“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?” they read

Zen freaks out and almost breaks his neck falling out of bed

He quickly sends a snapshot of his arms to the group chat

“They…they finally wrote back?”

The chat blows up right away, and it’s mostly filled withYoosung’s typos because shit theboy is excited

But the only person who doesn’t say anything is you

What are you supposed tosay?

How do you casually announce that you’re his soulmate???

Seven asks, “So, Romeo, wherefore art thou?” 

Zen sends his home address to the chat

You idiot how is that supposed to help your soul mate find you?they say

So then Zen writes it on his arm instead, adding an “O Juliet,Juliet, wherefore art thou?” beside it

When there’s no answer, Zen becomes a crying blob and everyoneon the chat is having a hard time getting him to stop sending dramatic lines

“Ah, Juliet, did you abandon me? Or have the Montagues taken youcaptive? My sweet love, where are you?”

“In front of your house,” you finally say in thechat. 

They’re all just like  ????????????????????????????

and then !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yoosung and Seven’s squealing puts high school girls to shame

Jaehee is sad but I’m just a fangirl nothing more I’m justworried about his career and Jumin is saying how he’ll present youguys with a cat show for your wedding pictures

Zen rushes to the door and faceplants into it he’s so nervous

But finally, he pulls it open and sees you, his Juliet, standingright in front of him

“You were always so close to me…” he says, reaching out towardsyou. “But from now on, I’ll keep you even closer.”

Zen pulls you into the biggest,  warmest hug

Such a tight hug, squeezing you with all his might…

very tight…

….it’s probably been five minutes since you’ve been standingin the doorway like this….

Was that a squirrel that just entered his house?

Hey uhm Zen I can’t really breathe

Anyway

He keep his word

and for the rest of the day, he holds you against him, neverletting you go, a hand around your waist, or your shoulders, cradling youagainst his chest while you listen to his heart beating fast… unless you have to use the washroom then he might considerletting you go but even then you have a hard time convincing him that personalspace is an actual thing

ᒍᗩEᕼEE: (sorry I wrote this one in the case that MC is a girl?)

So you know how in her route, two main things go down:

First, she doesn’t know she’s gay

second, she has a thing for coffee

you help her realize both of those things right

now  instead of showing her support in the chatroom, youshow support while writing small messages on yourself,  with Jaeheescribbling some back in her short breaks from work

actually no, she takes breaksfrom work just so that she can answer you

When Jaehee is stressed and lacks sleep so like every day? your words are right there onher arm, telling her that’s it’s okay, that you love her, and to take care ofherself because she is an important person to you and to several others

It helps her relax 

She sleeps more knowing that you’re looking out for her

When Jumin has a stick really far up his ass, you’re right therewith her, motivating her, everything will be okay, you’llget through this, I believe in you

Since Jaehee doesn’t know she’s kinda gay,she just assumes her soul mate is a dude

Then you guys meet for the first time at the RFA party, yougreet each other and hold out a hand to shake and-

you see the same message on her wrist that’s written onyours

“I hope I can see you soon.”

Jaehee looks at you in quiet shock

A..girl?

But then everything comes whooshing back to her, and she’s hitwith the realization that it just all makes sense

of course you’re her soulmate, how could she not have knownbefore?

In a burst of boldness, she cups your face in her hand andpresses her lips against yours

“It’s nice to meet you,” she breathes, a blush spreading acrossher face.

Saeyoung becomes your number one shipper that night and starts afanclub dedicated to you two

also writes fanfiction

when you open up the coffee shop, you guys scribble some ideasfor recipes on yourselves

after a hard day of work, you look down and smile at the thingthat Jaehee had written

Recipe for love: MC+Jaehee

ᒍᑌᗰIᑎ:

Jumin was never particularly fond of the the things that wouldappear on his skin

Meaningless dates, appointments, memos, the occasional flowerdrawing…

He never bothered to write anything himself, and so years passedin this manner, until you join the RFA

that is when he first decided to write something back

It’s after you had covered your thighs in swirls and clouds thathe takes up his diamond pen and places the nib on his forearm

“Hello,” he says, “Please refrain from creating such largedrawings, they are rather bothersome. Thank you.”

Nobody knows why you’re in such a foul mood that night in thechat

Jumin says he understands how you feel, since his soulmate hadbeen particularly unconventional with their drawings and now both of his legsare completely hidden behind patterns in dark ink

You do not reply for a long time

while Zen tells Jumin off for being an ‘anti-romanticassbucket‘, you’re glowering at your phone

Jumin Han

Jumin Han is my soul mate?

No it must be a coincidence…but to be safe..I’ll make sure…

“Hey Jumin,” you write in the chat.

“Yes?”

“Did you, by any chance, tell your soul mate  ‘ Pleaserefrain from creating such large drawings, they are rather bothersome. Thankyou’?”

“Yes, why?”

….

……….

“Ah,” he says, after a long pause. “I must apologize to you,MC.”  

Zen’s yelling

Jaehee’s yelling

Saeyoung’s laughing in the distance

Yoosung wants to cry because w h a t?

Meanwhile Jumin calls you and apologizes over and over again,assuring you that you can draw whatever you want and as much as you want, andhe wont complain at all

lol then why was it a problem like 5 minutes ago?

he learns to appreciate your meaningless memos and occasionaldoodle, and discovers that doing it himself is a truly therapeutic thing

he’s also discovered that he can use his own body to documentthe life of Elly

so now you get an update every 2 minutes about the status of hiscat

Elly is gazing out the window, she looks so beautiful…but ofcourse, not as beautiful as you

Elly is having lunch now…the way she seems crave her foodreminds me of how I feel when we’re apart

basically using Elly as a means to tell you cheesy pickup linesis his new hobby

ᔕᗩEYOᑌᑎG:

LMAOOOO

right so starting off Saeyoung never really doodled on himself

I mean do you see this boy he’s covered in clothes oh my how troublesome

however, a while ago, he could see the little marking that wouldappear on his hands when you doodled during a boring class

You have no idea how much those drawing helped him get his workdone

They were like tiny rays of sunlight for him, helping him seethe way out of his dark tunnel 

look at me being all poetic

He would never write back though, always afraid that you wouldstop drawing if you knew he saw everything you made

But after a while, the doodles become less and less frequent,until they disappear altogether

Then you join the RFA, though tbh you guys don’t find outabout being each other’s soulmate until much later

There’s a sleepover at Seven’s house, just you, him andYoosung. 

There’s also an RFA party the next day, and you guys are theonly ones crazy enough to pull an all nighter before the event

I mean for them it’s a common practice, sleepless nights

hey you could make a religion out of this

Anyways, it’s not until six am that you finally manage to fallasleep

Yoosung is passed out in the kitchen, his butt stuck to thefridge due to circumstances

Saeyoung wanders around, unable to sleep, when he sees yourpeaceful, unprotected face while you sleep on the couch

He grabs a sharpie and gets to work, careful not to wake you up

Saeyoung does some doodles of his own, and it takes him a fewhours to complete because it has to be perfect so arethey really doodles at this point?

Meanwhile Yoosung wakes up, unsticks his tush from the fridge,and leaves, because he has stuff to do for LOLOL before the party starts

You also wake up, groggy, glancing at the clock

it’s 4pm

the party starts in two hours

You bolt out the door, shouting a quick bye to Saeyoung beforeyou return to the apartment as fast as humanely possible

Saeyoung doesn’t answer you

He’s busy staring at himself in the mirror

“No way….” he murmurs, gently touching his face.

…

By the time you get back home, there’s only one hour to spare,due to the heavy traffic on the way back

You have just enough time to throw on some nice clothes andbrush your teeth before you have to leave again

So basically you have no idea how you look overall

Lo and behold, you arrive at the party, and Jaehee greets youwith a frown on her face

“MC…I don’t know if this is some sort of a joke…but that’shardly appropriate makeup for the occasion,” she says in a stern voice.

Huh?

The other RFA members arrive to greet you, but they all say thesame thing:

“MC, what did you do to your face?”

Then Saeyoung arrives

“Saeyoung, look at –”

They freeze

Seven has a perfectly drawn-in twirl mustache complete withmonocle and angled eyebrows on his face

Needless to say, you also have the same thing on yours

“Seven??!”

He takes a deep breath

Dabbing fiercely, he cries out 

“SOLIDARITY!”  

and then prances away

Basically you’re all bewildered, especially after Zen haulsSaeyoung back and has him explain just what the actual fuck isgoing on

Zen: “He found his soulmate by drawing an ungodly mustache onsomeone’s face? What has the world come to???”

and you two don’t even attend the party

Instead, Seven brings you to a park where you both lie on theground, counting the stars in the sky as Saeyoung offers you loving words andsweet caresses throughout the night

ᔕᗩEᖇᗩᑎ:

 Edgemaster Mc Edge gets a Mint Eye tattoo on his arm while he’sin the cult

You remember that fateful day where a strange drawing appearedon your skin, and didn’t come of no matter how many days had passed

So you automatically knew it was a tattoo and had to question yours/m’s tastes a ‘lil but it gradually grew on you

Ok but now listen

Days come and go, you join the RFA, and you never have anythingelse appear on your body

Side not: once you tried to initiate a conversation with your s/mbut all you would get as a reply was “Fuck off” or “You’re creepystop talking to me”

And then the day arrives when Saeran breaks into your apartment

You’re in the middle of putting on a hoodie, but you drop it outof shock when a grown ass man casually Tarzans into your house

Saeran has got his whole “I’ll take you to paradise andmake you happy and we’ll have sex all day” speechready and you just kinda whisper what the fuck

Why does this guy have the same tattoo as me???

So you’re staring at his arm, and he’s trailing off because whatshe’s not scared? 

Actually what is she looking at?

His gaze is drawn to his own tattoo, then he looks back at you

Is a quadruple take a thing?

He just slowly points a finger at you, covering his mouth his aloose fist while you mirror his movement

“You’re that creepy person!” he declares, eyes wide, while at thesame time you say “You’re that anti-social emo kid!” 

“That means…that you’re my soulmate???” youguys yell simultaneously. “No way!”

Y’all are breathing hard

neither of you know what the fuck is going on

Saeran tries to run away from his sudden bout of feelies but youlaunch an aerial attack and glomp him before he reaches the window

Basically it’s a very confusing evening that ends in late nightemotional syndrome and melting ice cream

The only time Saeran returns to Mint Eye is to make sure Rika istaken away and her cult dissolved

Saeyoung’s a mess, all tears and joy, because not only did heget his brother back, but said brother also managed to find his soul mate

Saeran promises to write you nicer answers

your favorite one is when he gets a little bit drunk, and hedoodles a little sun and some clouds on his forearm, where underneath he writesa simple

“Let’s watch the sky together, my soulmate.”

High School Band AU: Chapter 6

Hope you like this! ^^

“Hey, bro, come here! MC was about to tell me about her first kiss!”

“What… what?”

“What the hell?” Saeran asks, joining you and Saeyoung at the cafeteria table.

“He’s not… he’s not talking serious right now…” you say, trying to avoid both twin’s gaze.

“So you’ve kissed before?” Saeran asks, and it doesn’t look like he’s teasing.

“What? I… this doesn’t have anything to do what I was trying to tell your brother! I was trying to talk about something really weird that happened at Yoosung’s place that night after fisrt rehearsal.”

“Something weird?”

“Yeah, I… no, forget it.”

“What? Noooo, don’t be shy just because Saeran is here, he can make part of our little pact too…”

“What the hell are you talking about, Saeyoung?” you notice as Saeran widens his eyes and gets flustered, just like you did when he came up with this “pact” thing.

“Oh, haven’t you heard, bro? My relationship with MC has evolved enough for us to do a ‘No questions asked’ pact.”

“Relationship?” you ask

“Friendship, whatever. The only thing important here is that something happened at Yoosung’s place, MC needed someone to talk to and came to me, but… she doesn’t want me to ask much, though. So she agreed on a ‘no questions asked’ deal.”

“Of course you did, since you’re stupid enough to do whatever this fool wants!”

“Yeah, for the first time I guess you’re right, this was stupid. It’s just… I didn’t know who to talk to, and this thing has been bothering me a lot, so… desperation got the best of me.”

“Oh, why didn’t you talk to your precious Zenny about it?” Saeran scoffs, and you roll your eyes.

“Because… of something you told me about Rika, Zen and Jumin.”

“I don’t remember doing that.”

“What do you mean? That day in Yoosung’s house when you helped me getting out of that dress.” Saeyoung widens his eyes and looks at his brother.

“Oh my… so many revelations today, what is that about, by the way?”

“No-nothing! I just helped her unzipping that hideous dress you put her on, idiot!” you notice a pale shade of crimson across Saeran’s cheeks. “And you! You… realize you’re not making any sense right now, don’t you?” you groan in annoyance and glare at him.

“Okay, let me make myself clear so this slow brain of yours can follow. You told me Zen and Jumin fighting has something to do with Rika, which was why I thought it wasn’t a good idea talking about it with Zen.”

“Because…?” Saeyoung aks.

“Because… I met Rika at Yoosung’s house and… she was… kinda… weird.”

“Why?” both twins ask at the same time.

“I…” you look at Saeran, embarrassed. Talking with Saeyoung felt right because, despite him being odd, he seems like someone who would listen and try to give you an unbiased opinion, unlike his twin, who had picked on you from the moment you showed up.

“I told you before I’ll always be honest with you because unlike these softies, I won’t spare your stupid little feelings, didn’t I?” Wow, great way to make someone feel comfortable… “So spit it out! You know if the bitch did something to harm you, you have to let us know, right?”

“Oh my god… did she hurt you?” Saeyoung asks with widen eyes.

“No! No, she didn’t… she was… really nice… too nice, actually.”

Time for what? A flashback!

You excuse yourself to try calling your father. As much as Yoosung’s family is adorable and welcoming, just like him, you really need to go home. It’s getting late and you have class tomorrow! How come your dad forgot about this? It’s not like you would like him to be all over you 24/7 like he was a little after your mom left him, but… right now, he’s just a hypocrite calling you out for being irresponsible, when he is the real irresponsible one here! And… your phone not getting any signal is not really making things easy right now!

“I always tell Yoosung this house is kinda like a giant elevator. There’s always no signal here!” she shows up in the hallway and comes towards you. “Let’s get upstairs and I’ll show you the tricks to get some bars there.”

She grabs your hand and drags you upstairs, her blonde waves brushing against your face lightly. Hum… she feels really different from what you remember of that day in the record store… and why is he here? Wasn’t she on tour with Taylor Swift or… Carrie Underwood? Or… ugh… how were those rumors again?

“Here, it always works best here! Try now!” right she was! The signal bars increase in the screen phone.

“Thanks, Rika.”

“You’re welcome, honey!” so so different…

Oh! So your father answered your texts! Last one was a few minutes ago, telling he was coming to get you. Hum… maybe he wasn’t that irresponsible… but he is still pretty hypocrite.

“Who is that? Your bf?”

“Uhm, no. My father.”

“Why isn’t your bf coming to pick you up?”

“Because I don’t have one?”

“Oh… no boyfriend? Hum… that’s too bad…” she pouts and giggles. Okay… “So you must be enjoying a lot this attention from all these guys in the band. Of course, you could enjoy that even having a boyfriend, but… being single you can do it with no guilty, right?”

“I… wouldn’t know. And I don’t get attention, I mean… probably not in the way you’re talking about.” Another giggle.

“You’re really adorable! No wonder V kept talking how perfect you were to be a good understudy for me!” Oh yeah… V…are they still dating even with him in college? Wait, why are you even thinking about this? “He was so impressed with your knowledge on music, your voice, your charisma… and Yoosung looks really impressed too, doesn’t he?”

“You… should ask him that. I wouldn’t know.” you two hear the noise of a horn downstairs. “Oh, it’s my father! I should get going. Bye, Rika.” You try to go, but she blocks your way with one of her arms.

“What would you know, then?” she asks, smirking, then playing with a lock of your hair in her fingers. “I think you know much more than you look. I’m sure there’s a really clever mind behind this cuteness, oh… and this is trouble, isn’t it? Smart, cute and talented, how can those poor guys resist? How can anyone resist?” what… what is happening? Why is she so close?

“MC?” you jump when you hear Yoosung’s voice. “Rika? What are you two doing?”

“Oh, we were just talking about hair. MC said she was thinking about dying her hair to blonde just like mine. What do you think, Yoosungie?” what the hell?

“It would look really great, MC! Rika’s hair color is really beautiful! You would look even cuter!

“Yes, that’s exactly what I told her. Even cuter…” she smirks and takes her arm out of your way. You say a quick goodbye to Yoosung and his family before your father decides to stop horning and starts yelling.

“Wait! What about the kiss?”

“Ugh… I told you there was no kiss, Saeyoung!”

“Ah yeah, usually there isn’t a kiss after the classic tsundere move of blocking the girl’s way with the arm and doing some flirty threats… but let’s have the tsundere himself share his thoughts. What do you think, bro?”

“What are you even talking about, you weirdo? Don’t encourage this crazyhead here with your anime bullshit!”

“Crazyhead?” you glare at him, your voice is louder than you would like.

“Paranoid, narcissistic, you name it. You just have this big complex on thinking everything is about you. There are always guys fighting for you, a girl wanting to kiss you…”

“Which girl wants to kiss you, MC?” the three of you spot Jaehee and Yoosung coming with their trays. You immediately freeze when you see Yoosung.

“There is no girl! She’s just imagining things like she did before when she thought Jumin and Zen were fighting for her.” Saeran scoffs “Like someone was going to be stupid enough to fight for you… or kiss you.”

“You know there’s a big difference between being honest and being an asshole, right?” you say and get off the table, your voice finally reaching the right tone to deal with this jerk.

“That was really mean and unnecessary, Saeran.” Jaehee says coldly.

“Yeah, bro! Too much tsuntsun and too little deredere…” he says, crossing his arms and shaking his head.

“Shut up, Saeyoung.” Jaehee and Saeran say at the same time.

“I’m gonna see if she’s okay, guys.” Yoosung goes after you.

He finds you angrily flipping through your books in your locker room. You look quickly at him and goes back to the books.

“Hey…” he says almost in a whisper. “MC?”

“Yes, Yoosung?” you look at him, he looks almost scared and… worried.

“MC, I… think you should not take things too personal when it comes to Saeran. He… doesn’t think much before talking, but… I don’t think he meant what he said.”

“That’s because you’re too nice and tend to see the best in everybody, Yoosung. With Saeran or…” you were going to say Rika, but why? You’re not even sure if she was flirting or threatening you, like Saeyoung said. “Saeran is a jerk, okay?”

“Well, he’s one of my closest friends and I don’t think he’s as mean as he tries to come across next to you, but… I… I do disagree on him, if you want to know… I-I… think there’s nothing crazy about wanting to fight you… or-or… k-kiss you…” both of you blush with his sudden boldness. “I mean… I think you’re great! And you should think the same about yourself! So don’t mind Saeran too much, okay?” you laugh softly at the way he rubs the back of his head, embarrassed.

“Okay, I’ll try. But just because you’re asking and because you really killed with our little Vanessa Carlton duet. Why don’t you sing more often?”

“Oh, you know… it’s just… we have Zen to steal the spotlight, and I… feel comfortable in the background with the keyboards, the spotlight is for people like… Zen and you…” wow, you’re being compared to Zen now, it’s a really long way after being offended by Saeran in such a little time…

���Tsk, too bad. I think we work really great on a duet. Maybe we would be even better with a song from this decade, you know?” he laughs.

“Oh, we could sing Little Mix one day! That one with Jason Derulo, or… or… Oops with Charlie Puth!”

“Well, you would have to do the whistle part, since I don’t know how…” you look away.

“You don’t know how to whistle?” his bright eyes widen in amusement.

“I don’t!” you pout, and he laughs. “Hey, don’t laugh!”

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh at you! Just... just wet your lips and pucker them.”

“W-why?”

“To whistle! You just have to wet your lips and blow some air, with your tongue relaxed, like this.” The sound comes from his mouth effortlessly, which doesn’t happen to you, making you both chuckle “That’s… that’s so cute, MC.”

“There’s nothing cute about being such a dork!” you say dramatically.

“Well, Rika says I’m a cute dork… what do you think?” Oh yeah… Rika… what would it happen if you told him what happened between you two? Would he call you crazy too? Well, considering how much he seems to idolize her, probably… Yoosung is probably the last person you would like to upset with your… craziness?

“I… I wouldn’t know…” you shrug, and he smiles softly, almost like he was waiting for this answer.

“Alright. See you in rehearsal later, MC.” Oh no… did you upset him?

The bell rings and the hallway gets crowded with students running to get to class in time. Well, maybe Saeran is right, you’re crazy. But nobody can convince you that Rika isn’t a little crazy too, not even Yoosung.

[mysmessmistake]

i love your writings so much!! keep up the great work, hun

Thank you very much for saying that, I appreciate it a lot. These are shortbecause I’ve done a similar (ish) request here, but I hope you like them anyway. I don’t know how good this is… sorry.

Yoosung

oh my god a child

Yes!!!!! He’s not the baby in     the group anymore

He also treats MC like he’s 100     years older than them, with the wisdom of an ancient ruler

Seriously

“When I was your age we     had to use our brains! Not the internet!”

“Yoosung you are not a     century older than me”    

He’d be the most likely to take     MC seriously

Because a lot of people don’t     take him seriously because he’s the youngest once

He tried to handle MC’s mood     swings but…

He’s not a good babysitter 

Never let him babysit

He will give MC all the candy

And let MC do whatever the hell     they wanted while simultaneously having a break down

He’s also really impressed 

Because MC’s like 12 and  organised     a party in 11 days     

Jaehee

MOTHER JAEHEE ACTIVATE 

Worried about MC 

MC’s health

MC’s parents

MC’s education

Why did MC even come to this     apartment?

It’s kind of heart warming

Kind of annoying too...

She emphasizes the “did     you eat today?” Thing     

Speaking of parents, she’s     probably most likely to explain what happened to MC’s parents, since she’s     a responsible woman and not insane like everyone else

the best at handling     mood swings

She’s really worried about how     a kid could handle such big responsibility

Never the less she’s impressed     by the work they did    

Also has a hard time explaining     to guests that MC’s like 12 and organised most of the party 

Zen

A CHILD HE CAN BESTOW HIS     WISDOM UPON????     

EXCELLENT! 

He’s so ready to be the     cool-big-brother to MC     

Like MC needs a ride from     school? Zen’s there on his motorbike, making them look like the coolest     kid in school     

Takes them to movie/play     premiers he’s been invited to and introduces them as his little cousin 

Terrible at handling mood     swings because Zen handle his emotions by drinking, smoking or driving     dangerously fast

And thEY ARE TWELVE

However, He’s really concerned     and involved in MC’s home life 

He had a shitty childhood and     MC is very kind and smart, so god forbid something like that happened to     them

Impressed to the max when MC     pulls off the party with many guests 

Also protects them like a big     brother     

Jumin

skeptical 

MC’s a child

Kid

Twelve year old baby

They cannot possibly be part of     such an important and complicated organisation 

But the point is made that     Saeyoung is part of the RFA so…..    

He wonders why such a young     child saw a text saying ’come to this address’ and they actually went

Were they not taught about     stranger danger??

After he gets over his initial     shock he probably treats MC like how he treats Saeyoung

A child

Only they are a child

Saeyoung is not

Any sign of mood swing Jumin     will immediately leave, he’s not good with moody children

However, he is very very impressed     with MC when so many guests show up    

He honestly thought this entire     party would be a flop    

But it wasn’t

Considers recruiting them for     his business in the future     

Saeyoung

Keep Saeyoung away from this     child at all costs

Unless you want this child to     become a corrupted memer, keep. him. away. 

Saeyoung has found a new     gullible victim and it’s MC    

Really disappointed if they     don’t fall for his pranks    

However, will 100% recruit them     to help him prank Yoosung    

He also works twice as hard     when catching the hacker because they are literally a kid they can’t     defend themselves!!     

Tries to give them a lecture on     stranger danger

Emphasis on tries

Honestly he’d go along with     their mood swings

MC’s angry for no reason? Shit     so is he

Sad? He’s right there crying     with them

These pair are a mess

Saeyoung is impressed by their     skills     

But also worried

He wonders what made them     become so mature and adult so quickly    

He hopes it’s nothing like his     backstory

V

At the start of every sentence     he says ’I’m sorry’ whenever talking to MC 

I actually think this might be     the first time V is purely angry at Rika

Because they are a KID

A CHILD

!!!!!

He feels so horrible that MC     got mixed up in this    

He’s really good at handling     mood swings

He’ll talk it through with     them, or he’ll give them some space    

Either way he’s like the     kindest person to MC    

The kind uncle you see once a     year but is always so chill    

Happy that everything went well     with the party

But very sorry that they had so     much responsibility in the first place

Saeran

This is the only time he’s     raised a question to his saviours wishes 

But he saw the look she gave     him

And went on this his task

MC was gullible

But they were a kid after all

He saw how kind and helpful MC     was

They definitely deserved to go     to paradise…

After everything Saeran regrets     his decision gravely    

How could he endanger a kid     like that? How could you kidnap a child? Someone so innocent and     undeserving of being thrown into this mess?

It definitely didn’t do     anything for his recovery     

He avoids MC the best he can

But MC persists… 

They tell him they get mood     swings that sometimes end up hurting their friends

And that puberty is a real     bitch     

Saeran probably treats MC like     how anyone else would, like a kid    

Often quietly tells them not to     do dumb things when they are doing dumb things

Or telling them to calm down     and not be so dramatic during their mood swings

It doesn’t help

He’s not the best

He will protect MC though, to     make sure no monsterous person like him does what he did ever again

He’s like the edgy older     brother

[ethicallysourcedhumanmeat]

Sunday Morning

apparently I write yooran to warm up now?  apparently that’s a thing I do.

[masterpost]

The sound of an avalanche in the kitchen is what woke him.  Blankets still tucked tight around him despite the summer heat and no sign of Yoosung anywhere near him.  He sighs and wiggles his arms free of his blanket cocoon.  From the sounds of crashing and whispered cursing he knows at the very least Yoosung isn’t still playing LOLOL but the other side of the bed is cold and he has to wonder if his boyfriend has even been to sleep yet.

Saeran yawns and listens to the muffled sounds of a losing battle coming from the kitchen, his phone reads 4:37am, the sun hasn’t even begun to rise but Saeran doesn’t raise an eyebrow. Classes have been out for two weeks and Yoosung has been taking advantage of this time between school and his summer job to regain his title on the Shooting Star server. 

“Hey Dummy,” Saeran calls turning the lamp on, “it’s four in the morning what the hell are you doing out there.”  He’s laughing as he swings his legs out of bed.  It wouldn’t be the first time this week his boyfriend had gotten the time of day wrong in his gaming haze.

“Don’t— Stop!  Stay there, don’t come out here.  Don’t get up!” Yoosung yells from the kitchen, his voice frantic.

Saeran is already half way there but he does what he’s told, stopping in the middle of the room.  “Do you,” he clears his throat, “do you need a hand or something?”

“N-NO!”  Yoosung shouts, his voice cracking.

Saeran chuckles, the way he’s acting Saeran would almost think he caught him, but he knows his boyfriend and he knows his habits and he was defiantly not jerking off in their kitchen, especially not while, apparently, tossing things out of the cupboards.

“Are you sure?”

“I didn’t mean to wake you,” Yoosung’s voice has settled as he slips his head around the doorframe, “go back to sleep I’ll be there soon.”

His bangs are pinned on top of his head, the way he does when he’s studying and there’s something smudged across his forehead, Saeran takes a step forward with the urge to wipe it off, kiss his face, drag him to the bed and wrap himself around Yoosung until he relaxes and falls asleep, certainly nothing he’s doing in the kitchen can’t wait a few more hours.

“S-stop!”  Yoosung says throwing his hands out and rushing to stop him.

Saeran swipes his thumb across the smudge on Yoosung’s forehead.  “Is this chocolate?”

Yoosung lets out a squeak and pushes Saeran’s hand away.  “N-no, it’s not, it’s something else go to bed.”  He tries to make Saeran turn around, tries to push him towards the bed but Saeran doesn’t budge, he takes a few determined steps towards the kitchen, Yoosung sliding backwards on sock feet as he tries to stop him.

“N-no!” he yelps, defeated. “S-stop, you’ll ruin the surprise!”

That stops him.  The smirk on his face fades to confusion.  “What surprise?”

Yoosung lets out a hiss between his teeth.  “Please just go back to bed?”

He tries.  He nods his head, eyebrows still knotted together at what could possibly be happening, and turns around, he yawns again on his way back to their bed and curls up in his blanket.  He closes his eyes, tries to fall back asleep but it starts to nag at him.

Had he forgotten something?  He wracks his brain, Yoosung was a romantic, he remembered every little detail and he liked to celebrate all the ones he didn’t think were embarrassing but Saeran only remembered the big things, the day they met, they first time they kissed, their first real date, the day the decided to be exclusive, the day he moved in, none of those things happened in June.

But he knew Yoosung had a better, more thorough list.  The first time they’d held hands, the first time Saeran had smiled at him, the first time they’d spoken, their first argument and subsequently the first time either of them had apologized.  Yoosung kept track of everything without writing a single thing down and Saeran could barely keep their first kiss straight from the first time they’d held hands.

He rolls over and grabs his phone, his birthday was last week.  The RFA had thrown him and Saeyoung a party at Jaehee’s café after it had closed.  There was still cake and pastries in their fridge left over, and the cards were still pinned on Yoosung’s corkboard.  He was wearing the sweater and pajama pants Yoosung had given him right now.

“Are you sure I can’t help?” He calls out.

“No, go to sleep,” Yoosung yells.

Saeran groans, he’s wide awake now.  He can’t turn his brain off, can’t stop thinking about what he’s forgotten.  He opens the messenger app but the chatroom is empty.  His brother and Zen had just left.  He hovers his thumb over Saeyoung’s name and weighs his options before he selects it and sends him a text.  His brother and his boyfriend were best friends, if anyone knows what he’s forgetting it’s Saeyoung.

[Unknown]: Did I forget something? [707]: Is that a trick question? [Unknown]:  Yoosung says he has a surprise, I fucking forgot something again, I don’t want to be an asshole today. [707]: hmmm, sorry bro you’re always an asshole. [Unknown]: Fuck off [707]: It’s the Choi curse, nothing we can do about it [Unknown]: You can just say you don’t know [707]: But maybe I do know~ [Unknown]: WTF Saeyoung [707]: I’m not going to ruin his surprise, are you kidding?  I’m not stupid. Saeran couldn’t tell if his brother was messing with him or if he really knew something.  There’s a few thumps from the kitchen a muffled curse and then the glow of the flashlight on Yoosung’s phone.

“Oh,” Yoosung squeaks when Saeren turns the lamp on, “you’re still up.”

Saeran frowns and huffs as Yoosung crawls across him. “You smell like chocolate.”

“No I don’t,” Yoosung laughs.  “You’re supposed to be sleeping.”  He wraps his arms around Saeran and buries his face in his shoulder.

“Ugh,” Saeran groans.  “I give up.”

“What?”

“I give up, I forgot whatever you’re excited about.”

Yoosung’s face presses into his shoulder to suppress a snort.

“It’s not funny,” Saeran grumps, “this stuff is important to you and I can’t even remember to write it down so I don’t forget.”

Yousung laughs outright and presses a kiss to Saeran’s forehead.  “It’s nothing like that.”

“Then what is it,” he growls exasperated.

“Just go to sleep,” Yoosung coos. “You’ll see.”

He’s not sure when he falls asleep.  He remembers Yoosung laughing softly against him, and cursing just how fast his boyfriend could fall asleep.  Yoosung had been snoring before Saeran could even argue with him.

But now as his mind slowly rises to wakefulness he knows he smells chocolate, he can feel the sun from the window warm across his face and he stretches out in the beam like a cat before opening his eyes.  He reaches beside him meaning to shake Yoosung awake, demand his surprised or at the very least an explanation.

But Yoosung’s side of the bed is cold and empty and Saeran groans. “What the fuck are you doing?” he growls exasperated.

“Stay there,” Yoosung sings from the kitchen, “just two more minutes, I promise.”

Saeran makes a loud, disapproving noise but he stays where he is.  He folds his arms beneath his head and watches the ceiling, counts the glow-in-the-dark stars he’d helped Yoosung stick up there and listens to Yoosung humming in the kitchen.

He’s at 43 when he notices exactly what Yoosung is humming and turns his head.

Yoosung’s bangs are still pinned out of his face, the rest of his hair pulled into a nubby pony tail and he’s grinning like an idiot over a small cake and four huge scoops of bright green ice cream, humming Happy Birthday.

Saeran pushes himself to sitting and stares at Yoosung.  There’s frosting in his eyebrow, icing sugar in his hair and the first coherent thought that comes into his head is that the kitchen is probably a fucking disaster.  And he has to bite his tongue from saying it.  “What is this?”

“Happy Birthday!” Yoosung cheers, sitting down on the bed next to him.

“My birthday was last week,” he can’t stop frowning, he doesn’t mean to, he wants to smile but he’s so confused. 

“I uh, I know,” Yoosung stammers, blushing.  “I just thought, heh, I thought,” he looks away, “it’s stupid never mind.”  Yoosung shoves the plate with the cake and icecream at him.

Saeran looks down at it, mint ice cream and chocolate cake, Yoosung would have had to hide all this, or wait until he fell asleep to go buy it.  There are two forks and star funfetti.  “I’m sorry,” Saeran says softly pulling Yoosung against him. “Please tell me.”

“It’s stupid,” Yoosung repeats, shaking his head.  Saeran picks up one of the forks and Yoosung follows suit.  “Jaehee made Saeyoung’s favorite cake because she didn’t know yours, and you said before –uh before you’d never really got a birthday, and it didn’t seem fair.”

“What’s not fair about it?”  Saeran hadn’t really thought much about it, he’d never expected anyone to know anything about him he hadn’t told them, and he had never really thought about his birthday that much, it was just a day as far as he was concerned.

“Well you’ve never had your own birthday,” Yoosung’s voice his high, quiet and nervous, his leg shakes as he leans into Saeran, “and Saeyoung got, you know a few years to celebrate alone before we even knew about you, I don’t know it’s stupid I thought you deserved your own birthday.”

“That’s not stupid,” Saeran smiles finally.  “That’s really thoughtful. Thank you Yoosung.”  He turns and presses his lips to Yoosung’s quickly, cold and sweet from the icecream.

They sit quietly on the bed eating together for a few moments before Yoosung can’t take it anymore. “Do you like the cake?”

“It’s really good,” he nods.  “Did you get it from Jaehee’s?”

Yoosung pouts. “No, I made it myself, what do you think I was doing this morning?”

Saeran chuckles. “Honestly I thought you were having some kind of fit.  It sounded like a natural disaster in there.”

He blushes. “I’m sorry, I didn’t, uh oh no.” He stands up suddenly.  “You can’t, uh, you shouldn’t go in the kitchen.”

How would the rfa and Saeran react to MC being an irl princess of some foreign country? Like... honest to goodness royalty? Thanks!

A/N: I hope this was everything you wanted! I don’t really know much about royalty so I just kinda rolled with it.. If it’s not good I’m sorry! Anyway, if there are parts that don’t make sense i’M SO SORRY I HAVE A FEVER but i’m using this time to write requests because my bby followers deserve it. Sorry for being gone for so long! Thank you all for the support you give us, 404 and I are working hard on requests right now

*YOOSUNG

this poor boy had no idea, he doesn’t pay muchattention to pop culture like that

one day you invite him over to play games atyour house because you have a super huge tv and you knew he’d love that!

when he’s at the gates of your mansionhouse, he calls you because there’s no way this can be your house???

“MC, are you pranking me??? It was bad enoughlast time when you put toothpaste in my oreos!”

“Just come in, you dork”

when he hears the gate buzz, he finally realizes that you’re rich as hell

it all makes sense now??? You always take himout to super expensive restaurants and for Christmas you got him an amazinggaming computer???

he’s about to faint oh my god yOU’RE SO RICH

when he’s roaming around the hallways of yourmansion looking for your room (he refused the butler’s help, he could do ithimself), hE SEES A PICTURE OF YOU AND YOUR PARENTS AND YOU’RE ALL WEARINGCROWNS???

nah, no, there’s no way you’re royalty, you guysprobably did a photo shoot, there’s no way this is possible

wait isthat an entire row of pictures where your dad is meeting important people

is thatBarack Obama? Is that the pRIME MINSTER OF SOUTH KOREA???

he faints

when he wakes up, he finds himself in a huge bedand you’re sitting next to him playing a game

“You’re finally awake! I’ve told you that youneed to take care of yourself, did you even eat today?”

“MC ARE A YOU A QUEEN?”

“No, but I will be in the future”

Aaand he faints again

Once he finally gets used to the idea of youbeing a princess, it makes so much more sense to him!

You’ve always sounded really polite and elegantwhen you speak, and you handle the RFA fundraisers so easily, no matter whatcrisis comes???

He loves seeing you all dressed up, you’re socute and beautiful!!!

You’re his Princess Zelda

*ZEN

He thought your name sounded familiar when youintroduced yourself in the chat, but he didn’t really think about it

But when he finally gets to meet you, he’s in somuch denial???

It can’t be, a princess fell in love with him

If you thought his ego was big before, it’sthe size of the Titanic now

It’s even bigger when you tell him youwatched his movies before you talked to him on the app

It never really hits him until you go shoppingwith him one day and you buy him a Louis Vuitton suitcase aS IF IT’S NOTHING???

wAIT YOU’RE BUYING LIKE 5 BAGS TOO???

Like yeah he makes decent money from acting, butholy hell you’re rich

He honestly loves this so much though

You two are an amazingly dressed power couple!

You’ll take over the political world and he’lltake over the pop culture world

You end up giving him “prince” lessons

You teach him how to deal with the pressure ofthe public and how to speak politely but firmly

You make him walk with books on his head andrecord him even though that’s something you never had to do

You get him to quit smoking by telling him atrue prince would never do such a thing

He almost cries

HE LOVES DOING PHOTO SHOOTS WITH YOU, HE WILLUSE AN EXCUSE TO BE IN A MAGAZINE WITH YOU

“it’s your half birthday”

“it’s national best friend’s day”

“it’s tHE ANNIVERSARY OF THE DAY WE FIRST DID IT

zen pls no

He wears his future crown at home when no oneis around

He’s really happy that you’re a public figure sohe can flaunt you when you guys go out

*JAEHEE

She knew the second you introduced yourself inthe chatroom!

She’s honestly dazzled, a real life princess???What is this???

But she kept herself in check, she realized youprobably have a lot of people who hound you on a regular basis, she didn’twanna be one of them

But she honestly loves talking to about yourcountry’s political system

With your leadership skills and Jaehee’sorganizational skills, you both work together to implement programs forunderprivileged children

You two are a power couple omg, literallyunstoppable, you two even consider starting clean water projects in othercountries???

Unstoppable

Jaehee considers opening a coffeeshop chainin your country

She loves seeing you dress up!!! You’re soadorable and beautiful in all the elegant clothing

She totally doesn’t take pictures of you whenyou aren’t looking, there’s no way she has an album of 300 pictures of you

She’s really afraid of how the world will reactwhen they find out you two are actually together???

Dumbass tabloids think you two are “gal pals”

But you don’t care, even if you have to stepdown, you don’t care

“Listen Jaehee, I love you. You’re my bestfriend and I would not trade that for the world. If my country wants me to stepdown because I have a girlfriend, I will. I’ll find a life with you because Icannot imagine a life without you.”

tEARS SO MANY TEARS

Jaehee  highkey lowkey uses you to meet famouspeople (but she loves you, es okay)

You don’t really mind though, it makes her happy

So you take her to as many events as you can,you want to make her smile as much as you can

You love this precious little bean and you are going to give her the world

*JUMIN

Of course he knew who you were, he wasn’t anuneducated idiot

And while it was nice to know that you weren’twith him for the money

He was kinda disappointed???

You’re a princess, you have the entire world atyour feet

He wanted to spoil you, but you??? Have???Everything you want or need???

But with the help of Zen but with hisbrilliant mind, he was able to come up with stuff he knew you never got!

hE WILL MAKE SO MANY THINGS FOR U

He started making food for you

And yes it tastes terrible at first but it gotbetter after awhile!

At the beginning he was the type to just putthe entire egg with the shell in cake mix

hE’S SO CUTE IN AN APRON OMG

He takes knitting classes???

He knits you everything he possibly can, asweater, scarf, gloves, beanies

He totally doesn’t knit a baby blanket andbaby hat for your future kids

He supports your decision not become queenbecause you decided you wanted to do other than things than run a country

Like be his totally hot secretary

You eventually move into his place and he lowkeyfeels ashamed bc it’s so much smaller than what you’re used to

But you assure him that you prefer his placebecause smaller places feel so much more homey than mansions

You’re actually much busier than Jumin when itcomes to work so he’s always home before you and he spoils you so much

When you come home, you can always expect ashoulder/back massage

There’s always a warm meal that he makes because he’s not letting someone else dosomething for you that he can

When you have really bad days at work, he runs anice, hot bubble bath couple with candles and rose petals

He’s pretty much ur house spouse, who knew Jumincould take on such a domestic role???

But he’s still senpai in the sheets

*SAEYOUNG

Ofc he found out when he did a background searchon you

And he’s so fascinated by you???

You help run a country??? You do so many goodthings

He’ll never understand though

How didsomeone as great as you fall for someone as terrible as him

Everything you do is so great and he’s stuck ina field of work that could get him killed

But with your power, you’re able to get him outof his job

And he’s so, so thankful to you

He doesn’t really let himself be vulnerable infront of you but when you told him you could help him, he cried for hours

What did he do to get someone as amazing you???

He doesn’t know it but you totally gotsomeone to assassinate his dad

You actually help him get a job as an engineer

He hates using you for your connections but heknows he deserves the job, he’s not going to deny his talent and ability

He’s so thankful for you

And he becomes your right-hand man??? Anytimeyou need to make a difficult decision about your country, he’s there for you!!!

He gets a pet monkey so he can comparehimself to Aladdin

“Listen children,,, you don’t know how hard lifewas for me,,, I was a beggar,,, always stealing food to survive,,,”

“Saeyoung, stop lying to the children andactually teach them, I wanted you to get the kids interested in computers”

“I was nothing but a boy with a monkey and amagic carpet,,,”

You two come up with a plan to get kids moreinterested in computers and he’s in charge

He loves teaching all the children! They’re allsilly and goofy like him

He has no idea where he would be without you andhe’s so glad he met you

*SAERAN

This boy has no idea, like none at all

Rika chose you to retrieve the phone, and he wasjust supposed to follow you

And he knows like nothing about pop culture “It’suseless information that’ll take up space in my brain” so he didn’t knowwho you were

He finds out one day when he sees an articleabout you helping open up a school in a third world country???

Like he thought you were amazing before

You were the one who helped him through histherapy, through all the nightmares that plagued his nights, through all thebad thoughts that overwhelmed him

In his head, you’d always been his queen

But it turns out you’re actually a princess?!?!

And youhelp so much around the world

He could deal with you being a princess if itweren’t for the fact that you were a huge philanthropist

You educated women in India about reproductivehealth??? You helped teach disabled children in China??? yOU DONATED 25 MILLIONDOLLARS TO A HOSPITAL IN SEOUL???

He actually killed someone and you helped peoplelive longer and better

He actually avoids you for a few weeks after hefinds out

He’s just having a hard time coming to termswith it? You’re a goddess and he’s thedevil, why are you with him?

But you weren’t having any of it, you literallykicked his door down, you gave him his space and now you were going to talk

He ends up crying in your lap

But you manage to talk it out with him and youmake it very clear that you aren’t goinganywhere

“I love you, okay? You don’t have to understandwhy I do, but you need to know that I do. I don’t care if you think I deservebetter because I choose you, Saeran. Iwill always choose you.”

He eventually decides he wants to help peoplewith you

Yes, he made a huge mistake in the past, onethat he is so sorry for, and he will spend the rest of his life trying to makeup for that

He’s no V, he’ll never be an angel, but he’ssure as hell gonna make the world a less crappy place

He comes up with so many great ideas!

Music programs for underprivileged children!Reading classes for uneducated adults! Programs that help teenagers get workexperience!

He creates so many outreach programs and he’s sohappy that you gave him the chance to do that

Started from the bottom now we’re here

*V

This boy is as clueless as Saeran

Between photography and Rika and being adumbass, he doesn’t pay much attention to the world

·     He ends up finding out through Jumin??

“Oh by the way MC’s father is going to bevisiting my father, we’re going to talk about having MC model for one of ourproducts”

“wHAT”

He’s honestly so happy though

You’re such a fantastic person who else couldput up with him pining after Rika for so long and you deserve everything

You deserve all the praise and attention you get

He totally doesn’t fantasize about becoming aprince

And he so doesn’t go around singing Disneysongs

“anD AT LAST I SEE THE LIGHT”

“what was that honey?”

“Thinking about the top 10 things a blind personwill never say”

This boy is such a saint, you two implement aprogram to help disabled children

And not only does he help implement the program,but he actually participates in it???

Crying cause V deserves the world

He becomes your family’s official photographer!

This happens because he was lowkey salty whenyou hired someone else for an event

“Oh you need my help getting something from thehigh shelf??? Why don’t you ask that photographer?”

V pls shut up

But you do drag him to one of your photoshootsand after that he’s as addicted as Zen

You two make such a beautiful couple, how couldhe not be addicted???

He has pictures of you everywhere in hishouse

And he knows how much you love him, he canalways feel it, but he absolutely adoresthe expression on your face when you’re looking at him and seeing it from anoutside perspective makes him want to cry

He loves you so much, you’re his goddess

A Daughters Lesson - A Saeran Fanfic

Title - A Daughters Lesson Game - Mystic Messenger Characters - Saeran Choi, MC, their daughter I named Kyung Rating - PG Description - Just a little fanfic about Saeran’s daughter learning a valuable lesson about life.

Been wanting to do a Saeran fic for a few days now. Since I managed to finish my character profiles for Uni yesterday, thought I’d see if I could write it this afternoon after fabric shopping. And yey, I did it :D I was inspired by @myetie headcanon on the RFA and their childrens first day at school. I love her art and I’ve wanted to do some writing from her headcanons before but nothing sparked until now. I hope she sees this but I know she probably won’t. Anyway, enjoy!

“Kyung! Get your shoes on, please” MC shouted from downstairs.

Today was hers and Saeran’s daughters second day of school. Her very first day, yesterday, had gone just fine and little Kyung was so excited to go back again the next day. Over and over she had said she wanted to do art again, draw, paint, anything creative, she clearly enjoyed it. She had made several friends too, it definitely put Saeran’s mind at ease that she had managed to make friends so quickly and easily.

“Coming!” Kyung shouted from her room, grabbing her shoes and running as fast she could downstairs to greet her mum.

“Let’s have a look at you” MC checked her daughter’s hair, cheeks and clothes happily and proudly “perfect”

“Daddy says I’m always perfect” Kyung giggled.

“Of course, because I’m right that’s why” Saeran said, popping his head around the corner from his work room. Kyung giggled even harder before jump hugging her dad.

It certainly was a sight to see, Saeran hugging his little girl before school was becoming routine for them, but the sheer joy MC felt from witnessing such love always made it special. He had come so far since her and Saeyoung had found him and helped him, oh so far. He still had nightmares and had his struggles, but since Kyung had come into their lives, he was coping with those a lot better. The RFA was still running strong, each member very eagerly being an aunt or uncle to Kyung, even if it irritated MC when Jumin bought way too many gifts for her birthday. Either way, she was being brought up in such a love filled environment MC was proud of her daughter, and Saeran for giving her such a strong head start in life.

“Right, shoes please” Saeran said, putting her down.

“You’ll pick me up yeah?” Kyung asked, sitting on the floor to pull her shoes on.

“Of course, I did yesterday, I’ll pick you up every day, that was the deal” he smiled when his computer peeped.

It was an agreement that MC dropped Kyung off and Saeran picked her up. Since both worked from home most of the time, this arrangement was easily executed. Saeran was still hacking, but in a more safe environment, for the government along with Saeyoung. No more scary agencies, just safety. MC planned the RFA parties, along with running her own business. It was a perfect balance of work and time at home to spend with their daughter.

“Can we get ice cream?” Kyung asked, whilst pulling her back pack on.

Saeran knelt in front of her and offered his little finger.

“Pinkie Promise” he grinned. Kyung happily took his finger in hers and grinning up at him. Saeran’s heart always swelled with happiness whenever she smiled, he was sure it was the most beautiful thing he has ever seen, not including MC obviously, but his computer kept beeping, he had work to do. So he kissed her head and went back to his computer.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the time came to pick up Kyung, Saeran had finished his work for the day, he always got up earlier than usual to make a start so when it came to 4pm, he could focus on spending time with Kyung without worry. In a way, Kyung had seriously helped him with his mental health, she motivated him to do better and he owed her a lot for that, he’d spend the rest of his life doing that if he had to.

The school wasn’t too far, around a 20 minute walk, Saeran and MC had decided on getting a house as close to the school as possible, but also close to the shops, especially their favourite ice cream parlour. That was one thing she really looked forward to, every Tuesday was ice cream day for them both, it was used as a well done on getting through the first two days of the week. They kept Friday for family treat day which all three of them did something different, whether it was a cheeky take out or a games night. Most of the time, though, it ended up being both.

Saeran’s heart raced just a little faster as he approached the gates, ignoring the stares from parents around him. Even though he had definitely changed a lot since MC had saved him from Mint Eye, he still looked a little rough around the edges, and he still had the tattoo on his arm which he always covered around the school. The other parents always judged his appearance, even though he dulled down as much as he could, he even wore bright jumpers, he still looked a little intimidating. To him, he didn’t care, as long as his daughter wasn’t scared of him that’s all that mattered. Ignoring the judgemental stares around him, he just focused on looking out for his little girl.

The day before she had come out bounding, straight towards him and leapt into his arms. It was something he was greatly hoping would happen every day, but to his utter disappointment, Kyung didn’t do that. Instead, she was slumped over as she quietly walked over towards him. That wasn’t like her, she was always so bright and bubbly, especially around him and MC, something must have happened.

“Kyung?” he asked, kneeling in front of her again “You ok?”

“Yeah” was all she said, tugging on his arm “can we go now?”

“Of course” he said, taking her hand in his, but she pulled away “Kyung, take daddy’s hand” he said firmly. There was definitely something up, especially when he saw the looks and whispers that the other girls in her class were aiming at them. Ok, he wouldn’t say anything yet, but maybe the ice cream would cheer her up.

“So, what kind of ice cream do you want this time?” he asked as cheerfully as he could.

“Don’t want ice cream” she huffed.

That stung. She didn’t want ice cream anymore? She was breaking their promise?

“You don’t? Kyung, what’s happened?” he asked, stopping to talk to her.

“Nothing” she said, pulling him to keep walking.

Maybe it was better to ask when they were at home.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Naturally, MC was surprised when they came back.

“Wow, I wasn’t expecting you guys home so early! Was the ice cream place too busy?” she asked, all smiles and cheer.

Kyung dropped her bag and ran towards the stairs.

“Kyung, living room” Saeran said firmly, stopping her in her tracks. She turned and slumped into the living room to sit on the sofa.

“What’s happened?” MC asked in a whisper.

“I’m not sure, but we have to find out what” Saeran said, worried about her.

The two of them knelt in front of their daughter; they were both very forward with making sure they were on her level as much as possible, never looking down at her, something that Saeran had insisted on when they discussed on how to bring her up.

“Kyung, somethings clearly happened at school that’s upset you, can you tell us?” Saeran asked.

“Nothing’s happened” she said, fiddling with her dress.

“You’re not your usual self sweetie, if you can’t tell us we can’t help the problem” MC said.

“Daddy is the problem” she said, Saeran’s heart breaking in his chest. How was he the problem? What had he done? Saeran racked his brains, inside and out, but couldn’t think of a reason of her saying this. His own daughter had come to hate him, maybe? Saeran didn’t want to believe this, but his anxiety was beginning to get better of him. He clenched his fists.

“How is daddy the problem, sweetie?” MC asked calmly, but she knew how Saeran must have been feeling.

“I don’t want him picking me up anymore” she said.

“Why?” MC asked.

“I just don’t mummy, can you pick me up?” she asked.

“This is something we’ll need to talk about darling, you understand that you’re hurting daddy with these words? You need a reason for asking this”

Kyung glanced at Saeran before looking away. It was killing him. From his heart outward, he felt like his whole being was being destroyed.

“Do you understand, Kyung?” MC asked.

“Yes”

“We’ll need to think about your request, ok? But for now, daddy is going to keep picking you up, until you’re ready to tell us what’s really wrong, sound fair?” MC asked.

“Yes”

“Ok, now go get ready for your dinner” she said, and Kyung jumped from the sofa and ran upstairs.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Saeran needed some time alone that night, but it didn’t take long for MC to curl up next to him in bed and hold him tightly. She knew he was hurting badly and he needed the comfort, but they had to wait until Kyung was in bed. Their daughter still hadn’t given a reason for asking MC to pick her up instead of Saeran, but MC knew they had to be patient, Kyung would open up when she was ready. School was a huge step, and they thought she had gotten over the biggest hurdle already, clearly they were wrong.

“I think she’s being bullied” Saeran pipped up, quickly wiping his eyes. Yeah, he’d been crying.

“What makes you say that?” MC asked, stroking his cheek gently.

“When I picked her up, I saw some girls in her class whispering, pointing at us” he explained.

“Do you want me to talk to the teacher when I drop her off?”

“No, I think the problem is me, I think I have an idea why anyway, I’m sorry I let this get to me” Saeran said, kissing MC’s hand carefully.

“You have every right to get upset, will you tell me what the idea is?”

“I’m scary, maybe not to you, or to the RFA, or our daughter, but to others I’m incredibly intimidating, and that’s something I can’t help, so, I’m going to go to the school early to pick her up as a little surprise, I’ll see how she’s acting in break time, is that ok? If I can see who the bullies are then we can talk to the teacher” he asked.

“If you think that’s best then I’ll trust you” MC smiled and Saeran wrapped his arms tightly around her.

“Thank you”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Saeran waited until his daughters final break time of the day to go and investigate. If she wasn’t ready, he doubted she’d ever be ready, bullying was tough on anyone, but especially on someone who’s only ever had love and positive vibes around her. To suddenly be shunned can be a shock to the system, enough to cause her to become mute towards the situation. It was the last thing he wanted, his daughter to become so inward and unable to voice her emotions. He’d been like that for a long time, and wouldn’t wish it on his worst enemy, even Saeyoung.

He was outside the gate in no time and found a tree to hide behind when the bell rang for the kids’ final break. He didn’t exactly need to keep an eye out for her. She was the last out of the doors and quickly made her way to a bench well out of the way of the playground. Yeah, that wasn’t like her. She was always the first one at home to ask for her skipping rope during playtime outside. Keeping hidden, he watched from a distance as she sat by herself. She kept glancing towards her classmates, she even at one point got up and went over to ask to play. They all backed away, almost scared of her and said no. She went back to her bench and kept to herself. So, she wasn’t being bullied, the children were scared of her, of him too. It all made sense now. She had done so well on her first day because they hadn’t met him yet, then the next day everything changed. As soon as they saw who her dad was, they became scared. It was only natural, especially since he knew their parents would have fuelled that fear, and being so young, Kyung didn’t know how to cope with it. His heart hurt, even more so than before. He had to fix this with her, show that just because they’re scared doesn’t mean she should sacrifice her joy, she shouldn’t change who she is.

After talking with the teachers, he approached her in the school playground, ignoring the kids’ reactions to him. He heard gasps, little screams, but he kept walking towards her.

“Daddy?” she asked, quickly clocking the reactions. He could see the almost panic on her face, but also slight relief that she wasn’t alone now. He took his usual stance in front of her, kneeling as best he could.

“They’re scared of you and me, aren’t they?” he asked.

She went quiet, looking down at the floor, so, he took her chin in his hand ever so gently and lifted it up so he could see her face.

“Kyung, answer me” he said, a little firm, but still kind.

“They said you killed someone, people who look like you are mafia, or murdererers, they said you were a horrible person, I said you’re not! ‘Cause…’cause you’re my daddy, but they didn’t believe me, and now they won’t play with me” she sniffed, tears dripping down her cheek.

His heart broke all over again. He’d had a rough past, but she didn’t know about that, it was something MC and him had agreed not to share with her until she was older, if she asked. He knew people would judge his appearance, maybe even make a few whispers, but telling their children that he was those things…no, he wasn’t having that. He’d definitely be having words with the teacher, but right now Kyung was the most important person to heal.

“Sweetheart, do you love daddy?” he asked, she nodded as she sniffed, fighting tears. “Do you enjoy playing with a skip rope?” she nodded again, wiping her eyes with her sleeve. He smiled. “Do you like ice cream?” she nodded again, giggling slightly. “Then, sweetheart, that’s all that matters, because I love you more than anything in this world!”

“Even more than uncle Saeyoung?” she giggled.

“Even more than him” he chuckled, but becoming serious “You’re going to meet people who don’t like the way I look and will make up lies, you’re going to get people who don’t like you, or are scared of us, but, you have to be the bigger person here and still show them kindness and respect” he explained “if they won’t play with you, stuff them, you pick up a skip rope and you skip to best of your ability, because I bet you, when they see how good you are, they’re going to want to join in”

“And I let them?” she asked.

“Yes, because that’s you showing forgiveness and love” he smiled, letting her wipe her eyes again.

“Ok, daddy, I’m sorry I said those things” she said, almost crying again.

“Daddy forgives you, thank you for the apology” he said, pulling her into a hug “How about we go get that ice cream now?”

“I want chocolate!” she laughed, climbing onto his back. Relief washed over him, his heart finally at peace, she was ok.

“Really? Well, I want choc chip!” he grinning, carrying her past the kids who stared at them as they went.

“I promise, daddy, I promise I’ll show them how good I am at the skip rope tomorrow!” she said into his ear.

“I hope you tell me all about it when I pick you up” he said, heading towards the ice cream parlour.

“I will! I’ll tell you everything from now on!” she said, clinging to his neck.
