i just think it's so funny that when *i* lash out and start bitching *about* management to my coworkers because of a stressful day at work, i get pulled into the office to discuss my attitude, but when a manager lashes out and bitches *at me* because of a stressful work day, i get a halfassed "oh sorry, but-" and i'm expected to roll over and take it.
#ace rambles#negative//#boss prompted us to stop talking and keep it moving. okay sure whatever.#i lightheartedly asked what the rush was because we were almost done for the day#boss immediately snaps and starts yelling about how she's been busting her ass and hasn't gone to lunch yet#and she's ''not gonna watch four people stand and talk'' while she busts her ass#we were standing there for maybe thirty seconds. i didn't put you in that fucking situation girl#you're flying off the handle at the wrong guy#and i just know that if i had lashed out like that at her it would have at BEST been another ''conversation''#and more likely i would have been written up#i guess it's just another reminder that she's my boss. not my friend.#because if she were my FRIEND i would have been able to explain to her that that was incredibly hurtful#and that it really could have been just a minor issue at most#but i can't exactly look my boss in the eye and say ''hey you major overrracted and really hurt my feelings''#i've tried it with other managers and it doesn't end well#and look. i'm no stranger to getting frustrated and losing my cool.#it's a thing i'm actively trying to get better about but i'm big enough to admit that i have a long way to go.#the fact that she yelled at me isn't even what's bothering me#it's mostly the fact that i did not get a real apology and i really doubt i will.#and if i try and bring it up tomorrow or later then *i'm* going to look like the one who's overreacting and can't let it go#which tbh i probably maybe am?#i think i'm probably being stupid but i have a bad history with yelling and anger#which i don't need to get into you guys know the origin story already#whatever man#i want to cry but i'm in public still

You... (Dave York)
Dave York Masterlist
Series Masterlist
Prev
Warning: swearing
Summary: Pt2 of Isn't My Affair Anymore. When a case comes up at work, you realize that Dave had made major mistake with the last side-job. Inspired by - Ofra Haza's - You.
Tumblr media
You were on walking on eggshells since the meeting with Resnik, the fear of Dave coming to take your life at any given moment a constant in the back of your mind. Even so, you weren't about to go out without a fight. You were just as lethal as he, all you needed was to be one step ahead of him.
You had just taken a seat behind your office desk when the phone rang, "Y/L/N...", you answer it.
"One of our operatives killed himself after killing his wife yesterday", your boss informs you. "I need you to pull up his file and sit in on an online meeting with Susan, Dave and the French authorities."
"Operative category?", you ask to know what records level to access, trying your best not to show any reaction to the mentioning of Dave.
"Category Zero", he answers, causing your brows to raise.
"That deep under?"
"Yup", your boss responds, "you have an hour to get everything prepared."
Hanging up the call, you get started with the assignment and that's when you're utterly shocked by the location of the incident.
"Brussels...?! No, no...", you shake your head in denial when remembering what Resnik had said about an upcoming job there. "This can't be happening... What the fuck have you done, Dave?"
Tumblr media
Your eyes were tightly shut whilst taking in deep breaths and releasing it heavily in attempts to calm your nerves for the video call about to happen. You really weren't in the mood to interact with Dave at all but there really wasn't much of a choice for you, so you had to suck it up and do what needed to be done, your job. With that thought in mind, you exhaled one last nervous breath and muster the best professional look possible as the incoming call notification sound goes off.
"Hey, how's things going?", Susan image was the first to pop up on your computer screen.
"All's good", you flash her a bright smile, Susan always had a way of brightening even the darkest of moods. "How's thing your side and the family doing?"
"It's going good", Susan responds, "Bryan's got a new book out."
You were about to make a remark when the conversation was interrupted by the others joining the chat. Everyone respectively greets one another, and the meeting proceeds thereafter.
Tumblr media
"This was fucking torture...!", your thoughts silently screamed at you whilst the meeting was in full swing. To the others he might seem to be paying full attention to what the French official was saying, but you knew Dave intimately enough to know his focus was very much on you.
The man had a way of staring deep within your soul without even blinking an eye and that was exactly what he was doing at this moment. You do your best to make as little eye contact with him as possible; your head kept downcast as you took notes whilst the French official spoke.
Ooh Late in life You came to me And you put a sign On me Late in life What of you When you fell into A trap of lies You (ooh) You (ooh) You (ooh) Only you (ooh) You (ooh) You (ooh) All your love That I love All your love
Ah
*
"Do you have questions?", the French official asks once all the details have been relayed, snapping you out from the inner turmoil that was your thoughts and you to Susan for direction.
"He did work for us...", Susan remarks. "And when something occurs to one of ours, the agency is obligated to look into it. So yes, you will be hearing from us, thank you. Keep it locked down till we get there, please."
"I can't find a file on this guy", Dave comments once the French official logged off. "When did he become one of ours?"
"I don't know. Upstairs kept him off the radar for some reason", Susan responds, looking to you then. "Y/N, do you have any information on him-", she pauses to look up from the computer screen, and you could hear Byran's voice.
"Oh, you look great... but what about a tie? You need a tie, Darling...", Susan remarks and a faint smile crosses your face at their loving relationship, but it immediately sours when Dave opens his mouth.
"Do what she says, Byran..."
Susan smirks at the remark, you roll your eyes; which he clearly notices. Finishing her interaction with Bryan, Susan turns her attention back toward the screen. "Where were we?"
"There is a file on him. It was a category zero, so it was on need-to-know basis only", you reply. "I'm sending the information to both of you as we speak."
"Good... thank you", Susan smiles in response and Dave merely nods in appreciation.
"Hope it will assist in your investigation... but I'm sure you'll being heading to Brussels to personally go over the scene", you flash her a faint smile, making sure not to look in Dave's direction.
"Yeah... I'm going to have to go over there and cross the T's...", Susan confirms your guess. "You guys wanna come?"
"Oh damn... and leave this shitty office...?", Dave sarcastically responds. "You know, Brussels has the best chocolates..."
Susan smirks at his remark, "mmm... we'll go and find out."
You cringe internally at the thought of being in close proximity to Dave. "As tempting as it is... I have a ton of paperwork to go through. You go ahead and enjoy the enjoy the chocolates."
"Pity", Susan frowns dishearteningly. "I'll make sure to bring you back some chocolates."
Smiling at Susan's kind-heartedness, you nod in response, "deal."
Susan logs offline first, leaving Dave and you to stare at each other for a few seconds, and just as he opens his mouth to speak, you hastily off as well. "Not today... you were not going to give him any opportunely to kill you."
Like a man Who the game As a healing For his pain You your game Again and again Crazy, insane Deep in love You (ooh) You (ooh) You (ooh) Only you (ooh) You (ooh) You (ooh) All your love That I love All your love Yeah...

so um. got put into a MAJOR Fred kinshift with lore earlier, so! have some Frubbo Fun Facts From My Timeline!
- Tubbo and I's first date was going and sitting in a flower field and chatting about flower symbolism. he kissed me on the cheek before he left, and i might have. short-circuited a little (not literally, the workers weren't robots in my timeline).
- we weren't faceless, technically. we were forced to wear these blank masks that hid our faces most of the time. it was also a rule that we, under no circumstances, were to take those masks off in front of the Islanders. during the aforementioned date? Tubbo took it off, and i didn't even mind it :] it was a major trust thing, and i trusted him enough to take it off around him. q!Tubbo my beloved <3
- Tubbo was an avian, specifically part canary. he managed to keep his wings from being clipped like the other avians somehow, but he was always paranoid of it happening at some point (in other words, he was always wary around Cucurucho). so, on one of our dates, Tubbo takes me flying (he held onto me the whole time, he was Strong), and i'm just having a good time, right? flying was such a freeing feeling.
- well...the next day, there's no letter. and i'll admit, maybe i got a bit worried. something felt...wrong.
- now, My Boss, in my timeline at least, was ElQ (y'know. That Guy). so i decided to, very discreetly, be concerned. i said "Hey. A lot of the Islanders are worried because Tubbo went missing (i was actually the first person to notice, but shh). Did something happen?"
now, i expected to be told that I Was Being Paranoid and that he was fine.
nope! My Boss looks me dead in the fucking eyes and says, likely knowing exactly why i was worried, "Oh yeah, uh, he did something wrong and against the rules, so we're just making sure he can't do it again. :)"
you know. the Day after Tubbo took me flying. something he was Very Much Not Supposed To Do.
and i knew exactly what he was insinuating by saying that.
- so, long story short, i kinda panic, and decide to attempt a rescue mission (to quickly summarize: i had already found out about Ron at this point, and i had. Mixed Feelings On That, but knew he didn't want to come back to work, so i may or may not have rescued Tubbo while disguised as Ron, we're not getting into that rn don't worry i explained the plan to him before all this). and uh. Good News: his wing's didn't get clipped, uh Bad News: he's very traumatized and paranoid!
- Tubbo was. incredibly jumpy after that, and he only let a few certain people around him, me being one of them. he practically shut himself away from the world after that...Tubbo, my poor guy </3
but yeah. have some Fun Info on that!
- 💙🐏
sorry rgahgh i never know what to say in response to memories. that was a neat read though. neat is probably not the best word for that considering the bad stuff at the end but my brain is fried rn and I cant think of the word I want so neat yeah idk

troublemaker
― dancer youtubers!lee heeseung x gn!dance major!reader
sparks fly when the top two dancers on youtube collab!
genre: slow-burn fluff, s2l
wc: 3.9k (omg i'm sorry) + 2 twitter pics
warnings: probably some wrong dance terminology, slightly suggestive (the dance is just 😳), short timeskip, it's cheesy please bear with me
part of my youtuber enhypen series, the fifth upload! feel free to read on its own~ ♞──────────────────────────♞
you finish off your last move with your arms wide open, your chest heaving up and down from lack of breath. smiling nevertheless, you know you absolutely love the feeling of getting your breath taken away after dancing because you know it meant you did your best. you walk towards the camera lens and peek at the comments through your open laptop.
"did you all enjoy that?" you ask breathlessly grinning. the flooding comments are filled with compliments from your cover of nct u's boss. however, one comment, in particular, caught your eye as others seemed to reply to it.
heeseung ✔ 2s ago wow that was amazing do you wanna do a collab sometime? 😊
line break insurance you've failed me 5x already
your eyes widen as you let out a gasp. "is that the lee heeseung?" you accidentally say out loud. you wince at the realization of your mistake. the comments are both praising you for your success in getting noticed by the other top dancer on youtuber and relating to your remark.
heeseung ✔ 3s ago haha yes it's me dm me if you want to hear more about it 🤍
"oh wow... this is really cool..." you state before blinking to get you out of your stupor. "well everyone, that's going to be all for y/n's motion of dance today! thank you so much for tuning in, love you!"
you wave goodbye for a few more moments and then shut off the broadcast, closing your laptop as soon as you do. you blink twice and suddenly let out a scream.
you stop with a gasp and cover your mouth with your hands because you cannot believe you forgot that your dance studio isn't the most soundproof of places. "sorry, other dance students..." you whisper to them but more for yourself.
taking a look around your escape, your passion, you can't believe you've made it to where you are, being praised as one of the top dancers on such a vast social media platform like youtube. if anything, you guess it runs in your family, after all, you are related to choi yeonjun, who is considered 4th gen's it boy.
though people were skeptical of you at first when you came on the youtube scene as a dancer after your older brother started taking more to modeling and acting, you quickly proved them wrong by showing them your talent and bloomed from then on. of course, you can't forget to mention the person who skyrocketed just around the same time as you.
and that was the aforementioned lee heeseung. you sigh as you finish packing up your clothes and things to head back to your dorm, glancing out the window to see the sun beginning to set. it seems today was a rare early finish for you.
"i could go for a coffee... i need to finish my classics essay anyway," you mumble to yourself, throwing your bag over your shoulder before hitting the showers and changing into a more casual set of clothes. the finishing touch is a baseball cap that sits snug on your head. tightening the strap on the back and grabbing your backpack and dance bag, you finally take your leave of your beloved dance studio and return the key on the way out. fresh air meets your face, allowing you to take a whiff of the cherry blossoms that have been blooming for a month or so as you make your way to the campus café.
ding ding, the coffee shop's calm doorbell welcomes you as your nose is hit by the sweet smells of freshly ground coffee beans. "welcome!" one of the servers calls at the counter, smiling at your figure that walks closer to order. "what can i get you?"
"hi, may i have..." you scan the menu quickly for a familiar drink. "a honey cinnamon iced latte please?"
"of course, name please?"
"choi y/n," you reply.
if they recognize you, they don't make any notion of it, simply scribbling your name on the plastic cup as you make your payment. you're grateful for the normal interaction and the peacefulness of the café, especially after a surprising stream. "i'll call you when your order's ready, choi y/n-ssi," they inform you with a warm grin.
"thank you," you smile back before going to find a seat. spotting a relatively private area close by with only a pair of boys sitting at the booth, you decide to take the booth two spaces away from them. one boy, you notice, sits taller than the other, but his face is covered by a baseball cap. the other looks like a freshman, his cheeks accentuated by a pair of deep dimples.
as you take your seat, you can't help but think the boy with dimples looks rather familiar but can't seem to place your finger on it. shrugging, you simply begin preparing to write your essay by taking out your laptop and notes from your classics ge. the moment you finish is when you hear your name being called.
"choi y/n-ssi, your honey cinnamon iced latte," the server's voice calls. on your way to receive your awaiting drink, you can finally hear the voices of the two boys sitting two booths down from you.
"did your crush just say choi y/n?" the one with the hat says.
'yes, that's me,' you think to yourself nonchalantly.
"weren't you just watching their stream, heeseung hyung?" another voice says as you pick up your latte and thank the server.
wait, heeseung? as in lee heeseung? it's when you turn around with your drink in hand that you notice the two males looking straight at you. now you're able to make out the features of the boy with the cap, and there's no mistaking it.
"lee heeseung?" you mutter out loud at the same time he speaks out yours.
well, maybe that wasn't what you were expecting today, but hey, life is full of surprises, even if they are one after the other for you. after that unexpected encounter, you and heeseung acquainted yourselves, he invited you to sit with them, and now you're sitting at their table, awkwardly sipping on your latte.
"right, so should i leave?" the other boy, who you found out is studytuber and vlogger yang jungwon (which is why he looked familiar to you), blurts out. you chuckle as heeseung shakes his shoulder lightly. "what? you two clearly have to talk about something, i need to study."
"yea, yea, lover boy. make sure you say bye to your crush on the way out," the male dancer teases, causing the younger one to turn bright red.
"don't call me that, hyung," he mutters before picking up his bag and leaving the booth. sure enough, you watch as jungwon passes by the counter and erupts into a nervous mess the moment the server beams at him.
"ah... so he likes them?" you think out loud.
"yup, it's been almost four months now. i'm the reason he even knows this cafe and that server exists," heeseung mentions, making you nod courteously. he turns his attention back to you with his hand placed under his chin. "but their relationship is besides the point. let's talk about us."
"d-did you have to put it that way?" the forwardness catches you off-guard, and you suddenly have a harder time swallowing a sip of your coffee.
"sorry," he says with a teasing smile. "i just think the collab i mentioned would be good for both of us, and it'll be really fun too."
"i agree, people who like you will come to me and vice versa," you nod. "but do you know what we would be dancing to?"
"so does that mean you're in?" he asks, smile starting to grow on his face. wordlessly, you roll your eyes and hold out your hand for him to shake. that's when his full smile comes out, causing your cheeks to heat up as you think about how much more handsome it makes him look. taking your hand, heeseung shakes it with his vigorously. "alright, dance partner, we have a deal."
after much deliberation and research, the two of you finally agree on troublemaker by the duo hyuna and hyunseung. heeseung suggested this song, stating that he always wanted to do the choreo with somebody and that it's destiny that both males have a name that starts with h and ends with seung. quite frankly, it's not like you could find much anyway, besides some cool music bank mc stages, it is cool that troublemaker was originally an opposite-gender duo in the korean entertainment industry.
the choreography however is an entirely different story. at many points, hyuna's body is touched by hyunseung and vice versa, but if they can do it and stay professional, then you believe you can too. besides, dancing will always be just dancing. heeseung also assures you that if you want, the two of you can just have your hands hovering, which makes you feel relieved to have an understanding partner.
hours pass by, and you and heeseung decide to meet at your usual dance studio daily after all your classes, which wasn't hard because he also frequented the same one.
"i still can't believe we attend the same university," you say aloud as the both of you pack up your laptops and supplies.
"i know right, you would think one of us would recognize the dance studio we go to 24/7, right?" he laughs. "although, i've seen you use a different one sometimes."
"do you really watch my covers and streams often?" you ask baffled. he and you wave the workers goodbye and make your way to the brisk evening air waiting outside as the staff sends you off.
"i do, is that so hard to believe?"
"a little," you reply sheepishly.
"well, let me walk you to your dorm and prove to you how much of a choi y/n stan i am," he boasts, and you let yourself laugh freely as you walk beside him to your destination.
it's strange, knowing a famous youtuber you watched also knew and followed you, but then again, you're not exactly nobody either. when heeseung drops you off, he admits that he actually lives a few floors above you and that you two can walk home together after each rehearsal. it's even stranger, knowing a famous youtuber literally has been on your campus, in the same dorm building as you, and this whole time, the two of you have both been clueless as to the other's existence as an ordinary college student.
speaking of which, he can't be a dance major, right? otherwise, you would've already seen him! these thoughts keep you tossing and turning to the point you don't register when you fell asleep. when you wake up, you feel as if you didn't get any sleep at all, but get up and ready nevertheless, going through another regular day as a dance major.
by the time your classes are over, you walk out of the studio yawning about to stop by your dorm to freshen up and maybe fit in a nap. you're holding a hand over your mouth mid-yawn when a voice starts talking to you.
"good thing i stopped by to get coffee." you open your eyes and close your mouth to see lee heeseung holding two cups of coffee. he's dressed in an oversized white shirt and grey sweatpants, a common dance practice outfit, so why is your heart skipping so many beats. "yo, choi y/n."
"heeseung," you say, still shocked. he hands you the coffee, which is actually the same flavor you got yesterday. "thanks."
"no problem," he replies coolly. "maybe we should take a break before we get to it?"
"i'll be fine, how about we can start watching the choreo?"
"they're always ready to dance," he nods with an impressed smile. "as expected of a dance major."
the two of you walk inside and book a studio for a few hours as you raise an eyebrow at him. "wait, what major are you?"
"music production."
"that makes so much sense!" you say relieved, stepping into the studio room for the umpteenth time. "i was racking my brains wondering what major you were."
"so the famous choi y/n is curious about me?" he smirks. you groan and facepalm in response. "i'm kidding, i'm kidding. let's watch the video on my tablet?"
nodding, the two of you watch carefully, eyes glued to the screen at your respective roles. you hold your breath at some touchy parts but also notice that both idols were able to shine in their solos.
"a few tweaks here and there, and it'll be perfect," heeseung comments once the video is over. "but let's go over some boundaries, yeah? let me know what you're comfortable with and what you're not."
"right," you agree, once again relieved to have such a safe and understanding partner like him. "well, i think i'm okay with you touching my arms, shoulders, and hips like hyunseung did to hyuna. i just need some time to get used to it."
"alright, that sounds good," he says nodding with a hand under his chin. "then for today, i'll just hover my hands over the places they need to be."
"what a gentleman," you tease.
he rolls his eyes playfully at you. "let's start marking."
and so that's what the two of you start on. with the video on the tablet, you go through the motions with the speed lowered, eventually picking up more moves until you're able to follow at the normal speed. as expected of the top two dancers on youtube, the two of you are quick on observing and learning the dance and get done with basic marking within 20 minutes or so.
after marking, you take a quick water break to watch the video again in full detail, officially beginning your first real practice. as promised, throughout the entirety of marking, heeseung has kept his hands to himself, but you've become comfortable enough to have him do a little more.
before you start practicing for real, you decide to speak with him. "hee," you call him as he puts down his water bottle.
"hm?" he confirms that you have his attention, looking up with his large doe-like eyes while wiping his mouth off from some excess water.
"uhm.." you fidget with your top a little before mustering up some courage. "you can do light touches now for the choreo."
"really? are you sure?" you nod at his question, causing him to come up to you and ruffle your hair lightly. you bat his hands away with a pout, smoothing out the mess he made as he laughs at you. "that's great, y/n," he says with a bright smile, unknowingly making your heart beat a little faster as you nod again. in your head, you rush to cover up the physical reaction with an excuse that it's just from the amount of exercise you've done.
the two of you stand in front of the mirror, ready to go. before the music starts, heeseung turns to you and says, "just let me know if i make you uncomfortable at all."
"i'll be fine," you reassure him with a small smile. that's when the song begins, and the sparks start to fly. every move flowed like water, yet every touch between the two of you was like electricity as if the two elements were working together instead of fighting. even though the touches are light, they still put chills up your spine, in a way that you can only describe with the phrase "meant to happen."
was fate moving its course to put this match together, or were you imagining it? you're not sure, but you grin while catching your breath once the first practice is over. falling to the floor softly, you sit with your hands splayed behind you and let out a relieved sigh. "ahh... dancing is so... great!"
heeseung chuckles at your reaction and offers a hand to get you up. "i'm glad you think that because we got a lot more practice ahead of us, partner."
"yup!" you say with a widening smile. the moment you took his hand, you felt an electric jolt that almost made you let go. getting up, you shake it off and barely catch the expression on your dance partner's face. "is something the matter?"
he blinks a bit before he's shaking his head with that charming smirk of his. "nope! let's practice!"
practice, practice, practice. that's how the next few hours go. and just like the day before, heeseung walks you to your dorm building, this time the conversation about how excited the two of you are for the recording.
that's basically how the next four or so days go, now that heeseung came into your life. your daily routine of wake up, eat, class, dance, repeat was shaken by him, because now he was a part of it. it's an indescribable feeling, hanging out with him. the best word, or phrase actually, is the same one you used while dancing with him: meant to be.
so when you finally get to the day of recording, you almost don't want it to end. at least, that's what you're telling your best friend and makeup artist, kim sunoo.
"friend, you're telling me that you and this guy have been following along to..." he tells you to look up as he curls your eyelashes. "a dance like that for four days and you've been getting shocks this whole time?"
"i mean, yeah?"
"y/n, i love you, but you're missing a little something, aren't you?"
"wha-!?"
"pucker up, sweetie, we're making your lips look kissable," sunoo commands. you do an eye-roll but do as he says. "if you don't ask him out or do something by the end of this, you can at least kiss your best shot at a boyfriend goodbye with luscious lips."
he finishes applying the color and asks you to rub your lips together and make that pop sound. "perfect," your best friend compliments. "go out there and get your mans."
"thank you, sunoo!" you say, gazing at your reflection in the mirror and loving the way he accentuated your features. "by the way, you're all talk. you should ask your celebrity crush out when they appear on your channel."
"i'll get there when i get there!" he whines and starts pushing you out of his dorm room. "just go get 'em, tiger."
with that, you make your way to the dance studio where heeseung is waiting for you, dressed in hyunseung's iconic suit with the leopard-patterned blazer. your heart quickens, seeing how much more handsome he looks dressed up, hair slicked back and some makeup done. he looks up upon hearing the door open and his mouth slightly hangs open as well.
the both of you are silent as you approach him, in your equally bedazzling outfit, sheer to mimic hyuna's stage dress. "you look amazing," the two of you say at the same time. stunned at the simultaneous sentence, you two immediately start guffawing at how this was unlike your usual interactions.
"that was so awkward!" you blurt out, unable to contain your laughter.
"yea, not like us at all," he admits while he wipes a stray tear from laughing too hard away. smiling at each other, you admire the way his eyes reflect your image and sparkle. "you ready to get this show on the road."
"ready as i'll ever be." the two of you get into your positions on the opposite ends of the room, and heeseung starts the camera and the music soon after. you take each step slowly to meet him in the middle as he takes your hand and brings it up to his lips to give it a kiss while smirking. you keep your face professional as the two of you take a few steps forward, the back of his fingers curled over the front of yours.
starting back-to-back, you walk forward a bit before the beat drops and heeseung's part begins. you're on autopilot as you dance your fingers from his chest to his shoulders, and then the chorus comes. hips swaying, you're able to feel his hands' light taps on your body as the two of you lose yourself to the music you've danced to hundreds of times this week.
then, it's your killing part as you lipsync hyuna's rap and take bold steps around heeseung's body, ending up behind him to bring your hands over his shoulders and make a scratching movement across his chest. you step towards his side, do your thing, and walk away as if playing hard to get.
you wait for his part during the bridge and make a side glance towards him before moving towards him and performing the hip-heavy part of the chorus together. your partner moves his face up along your arm, taking it in like you're a statue. you then act like you brush him away when heeseung gets close enough. after this second chorus, you're leaving him to do his big solo, watching carefully as he makes his every move precise and crisp yet flow well.
it's the last chorus now, and this time, you can't take your eyes off each other as you finally face one another. you stay drowning in his shades of brown without a single misstep until you have to walk away from him. you wait for him to come towards you, back slightly turned away as he jaunts forward, making his way to be captured by your hand behind his neck.
the last breath of the song is the one where you're supposed to turn your head away as his own chases yours, but this time, you brave forward and lean in close. the music fades away, but all you hear is his breathing, feeling it against your own.
you stay like this, ensnared in each other's arms, forgetting about everything except the person wrapped close to you as you feel his every breath against your lips and every inhale and exhale under your hand. he searches your eyes, looking for some kind of sign. "do you mind if i—"
that was all you needed before you're pressing your lips against his. it only takes seconds for him to kiss you back, moving his hands from their previous position on your hips to hold your face. becoming breathless from dancing was one thing, becoming breathless from kissing heeseung was another thing entirely, it was in a league of its own you note as you pull away and rest your forehead on his.
"we'll have to edit that out," you say after what seemed like ages of taking each other in while chuckling.
"i have a better idea than editing."
"oh, and what's that, handsome?"

Conversation
That Night...
Narration: It all started about a week ago at the company party celebrating our boss' retirement from the company after nearly 30 years of tears, sweat, and hard work. It was also the night that I met...him. His name is Katou Youji, he works in the marketing department on the floor below me. He's the head of the department and would sometimes make frequent stops by my department when we had a meeting over all the departments. But lately, I've noticed that he's been coming around more often than usual. At first, I thought he was just making a few errands, but come to find out he was actually stopping by to see someone. It's not company policy to have intimate relations with other staff members but for someone as attractive and as social as him, it's hard not to get into a little bit of extracurricular fun. I just wished that it had stayed that way but that night at the party...
Setting: The company party is being held at a bar in the inner city, everyone is eating, chatting, with a few drinks in between. Iwaki arrives a little late and since there were no seats left by his co-workers he is forced to sit in the only open seat left by Katou.
Iwaki: *sighs, then makes his way over to the seat by Katou* Excuse me, do you mind if I take this seat?
Katou: *looks over* Oh, yeah go ahead.
Iwaki: *takes a seat*
Katou: Why are you so late?
Iwaki: Family emergency.
Katou: Sorry to hear that. Is everything okay?
Iwaki: Nothing tragic.
Katou: Good, I'm glad you made it. I might actually have fun at this party. *drinks some of his beer*
Iwaki: It can't be that hard to have fun with me attending.
Katou: Now I finally have a chance to talk with you.
Iwaki: Weren't you just talking to your co-workers before I came?
Katou: Yeah but I always talk to them.
Iwaki: *nods his head* Okay.
*server comes over*
Iwaki: Can I just get a water, please?
*server nods and walks away to get his drink*
Katou: Just water?
Iwaki: I like to keep a clear head.
Katou: It's not like we have work tomorrow.
Iwaki: Fine. Just one drink.
*the waiter comes back and brings Iwaki his water*
Katou: Could you also bring him a beer, please?
*the waiter nods and walks away*
Iwaki: I guess one drink couldn't hurt.
*Server comes back with his beer and sets it in front of him*
Katou: Now I'm not drinking alone anymore.
Iwaki: You wasn't alone when I came. You're surrounded by all your friends and co-workers you were probably already drinking with them before I came.
Katou: I wanted to be drinking with you but you were late.
Iwaki: *chuckles, rolls his eyes* Sure.
Katou: Don't believe me?
Iwaki: Does it matter? I'm here now.
Katou: You don't seem like you want to be here though.
Iwaki: I don't. I'm only here to support my boss, that's it.
Katou: Thought so, you don't seem like the type that likes parties.
Iwaki: I'm not one for any kind of social gathering.
Katou: I'm aware, you know you get called the ice king at work right?
Iwaki: I'm aware. I don't let idle things people say about me affect me or my work.
Katou: *smirks* That's why I like you.
Iwaki: *takes a sip of beer*
Katou: *drinks his beer*
Iwaki: *groans to the taste*
Katou: Don't like it?
Iwaki: I don't usually drink beer.
Katou: What do you drink?
Iwaki: Scotch, wine, bourbon, on occasion.
Katou: Not a fan of wine.
Iwaki: I can see that.
Katou: You can?
Katou: I know your type very well.
Katou: Oh?
Iwaki: *takes another sip, groans*
Katou: And what exactly is my type?
Iwaki: You're a social butterfly. You like to talk and make new friends. You're also outgoing, charming, charismatic.
Katou: And that implies I don't like wine?
Iwaki: You prefer a glass of beer over wine because it's the social thing to do.
Katou: Hmmm....
Iwaki: Am I wrong?
Katou: No...
Iwaki: *smirks*
Katou: Seems like you pay a lot of attention to me.
Iwaki: I don't. I just hear a lot about you. And you've been coming around the office frequently as of late.
Katou: Someone there has caught my eye.
Iwaki: I've heard.
Katou: Don't think they'd be interested in me though.
Iwaki: Maybe it's because they want to keep their job?
Katou: No I don't think that's it, there's no rule about people from different departments being together.
Iwaki: It's in the policy. No members of staff, regardless of position, or department, are not permitted to have intimate relations with other members of staff.
Katou: Really? Whoops.
Iwaki: Did you not read that part when you signed the contract?
Katou: Not really.
Iwaki: And yet you're somehow the head of the Marketing Department?
Katou: I'm good at my job.
Iwaki: Apparently. It must've been due to your charismatic charm that you got that position for a man your age.
Katou: It helps to be friendly and personable, you should try it.
Iwaki: I'm cooperative but I don't need to be friendly to be good at my job.
Katou: It doesn't hurt.
Iwaki: It's best to keep to yourself and mind your own business.
Katou: You just don't want to get close to people.
Iwaki: Not with the people I work with, no.
Katou: Why?
Iwaki: *annoyed* I just told you.
Katou: I'm guessing you don't want to be talking to be right now either.
Iwaki: Correct. Now, why don't you go back to socializing with your friends and leave me be.
Katou: Nah, I've always wanted to talk to you and now I have an opportunity.
Iwaki: *sighs* Whatever.
*sever comes by*
Iwaki: *to server* Can I get two scotches, please?
*server nods then leaves*
Katou: What happened to just one drink?
Iwaki: *ignores him*
*the server comes back with his drinks and leaves*
Iwaki: *downs the first drink*
Katou: *to himself* Well this makes things easier.
*30 minutes and 6 drinks later*
Iwaki: *drinking his 7th drink*
Katou: Hey...the party is almost over why don't I escort you home?
Iwaki: I don't need your help. *stands up but stumbles*
Katou: *catches him* You were saying?
Iwaki: *steps away* Don't touch me. *walks out of the building*
Katou: *follows him out* Iwaki wait.
Iwaki: *stops* What?
Katou: There's no way you can get home in the state you're in. Let me help you.
Iwaki: *rolls his eyes*
Katou: What's with the attitude, do you hate me that much?
Iwaki: You have no idea of how much I hate you. All I hear every day at work is *mockingly* "Why don't you be more social? You know Katou Youji is head of the marketing department because he's social why don't you be more like him?" or "Did you hear about Katou Youji? He became the youngest man in the company to be head of a major department in thirty years. Maybe you could've been head of your department ten years ago had you been more social like Youji." Well, I'm sorry that I don't kiss ass and suck up to the higher-ups to get a promotion.
Katou: *grabs Iwaki’s arm and drags him into the alley of the restaurant and kisses him*
Iwaki: *shocked, pushes Katou away* What the hell is–
Katou: *pulls him closer and kisses him again*
Iwaki: *violently shoves him against the other wall then rushes out of the alley; wipes his mouth*
