Hi I Wanna ask if I could request a Gen 0 x reader?
Hey! Apologies for the long wait! Here's some not very fluffy at all scenarios with Gappy and Jinyoung!
Gen 0 x Reader: Jinyoung, Gapryong
G/N leaning F!Reader
Jinyoung Park
Tumblr media
You don't remember a mad scientist.
You remember a calm, measured man. Dry smiles and witty retorts. An intellect you can't keep up with, theories and concepts you can never follow but an unending patience where you're concerned.
A sadistic streak that was kept in the bedroom. That drew as much pleasure from you as it did for him. And when all was said and done, aftercare filled with tender touches and being held in his arms.
And then that same sadistic streak leaking out the night Gapryong died, poisoning everything it touches with malice and cruelty.
You feared him, sometimes. The intellect you revered and loved now intimidated and alarmed you.
Other times, you caught a glimpse of the man you fell in love with.
In the end, it was your patience that ran out first. You never turned back to see his face crazed and contorted. You let his shouts and obscenities wash over you.
Gapryong died, and the Pre-Generation along with him. That night, the Jinyoung you knew started dying too.
.

Gapryong Kim x Reader
Tumblr media
He was a taken man, a married man, and he should have known better.
You should have known better.
Yet when he directed his attention towards you, his grin towards you, it was like a shot of espresso. Waking you up, wondering how you even lived before he came into your life. How did you go so long without his words and his looks and his touch.
You fell under his spell. You fell from the first moment he said hello, clasping his gloved hand as he turned his gaze towards you.
He filled your days and nights with adventures and exploits. He lay by your side, sat with his arm around you, held you like you were meant to be together.
And you should have regretted it. Should have more pride in yourself, more self respect every time he returned back to his wife. Everytime he washed your perfume from his skin, made plans with others (and there were so many others) instead of with you.
But for Gapryong, you couldn't say no. You run to him with open arms, clear all your days for him, make a space for him in your life even when he told you clearly he can't give you what you want.
You're a shadow of who you once were. You've ruined yourself.
And you would gladly continue to ruin yourself for him over and over again.

โ€œAre you afraid of me?โ€
Are you afraid of them? - lookism men
Tumblr media
โ€œYou wish.โ€
Honestly, they wished you were afraid of them sometimes. Then maybe you could see how they werenโ€™t good for you. But then again, they were relieved you weren't afraid. It meant you trusted them, and that trust meant everything to them.
"Ouch, sorry to disappoint. I'll try to be more terrifying next time.โ€
๐’๐„๐Ž๐๐†๐‰๐ˆ ๐˜๐”๐Š - ๐Š๐„๐๐“๐€ ๐Œ๐€๐†๐€๐Œ๐ˆ - ๐“๐€๐„๐’๐Ž๐Ž ๐Œ๐€ย 
Tumblr media
โ€œSometimes.โ€
And could they even blame you for that? They scared themselves at times too. Their actions or words occasionally made them question their own intentions or motivations. They understand.
silence, an intense look
ย ๐Ž๐‹๐‹๐˜ ๐–๐€๐๐† - ๐‘๐˜๐”๐‡๐„๐ˆ ๐Š๐”๐‘๐Ž๐ƒ๐€ - ๐‰๐Ž๐‡๐€๐ ๐’๐„๐Ž๐๐† - ๐—๐ˆ๐€๐Ž๐‹๐Ž๐๐†ย ย 
Tumblr media
โ€œWhy would I?โ€
The pure confusion on your face makes their heart flutter with joy. The thought that you can't fathom any reason to be afraid of them softens their features into a warm smile.
warm smile "You know me better than that."ย

โ€œShould I be afraid?โ€
Good question... Should you be afraid of them? It's not an easy question to answer. They know they can be intimidating at times, even if they don't intend to be.
considers for a long moment "Sometimes I'm not sure myself."

Tumblr media
โ€œNah. Youโ€™re a big softie.โ€
You're absolutely right. They don't even know why they asked such a question. Despite their attempts to come across as tough or intimidating at times, deep down they're quite gentle and kind-hearted.

threats
summary ; no-one dead au, Gapryong love his kids, him and Baekho thinks their youngster have crush on Jinyongโ€™s daughter, while he being delulu and calls their sons wolves (Jinyong secretly cheering for Jake)
tw ; none, pure fluff and actually happy Kim family
pairing(?) ; kid!jake kim x kid!reader(?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The celebration at Gapryong Kim's mansion was in full swing,the occasion was significant - his birthday - the air thick with laughter, clinking glasses, and the warm glow of camaraderie. The adults, slightly tipsy and buoyed by nostalgia, sat around the large dining table and in clusters throughout the spacious living room.
Jake, with his boundless energy and cheerful demeanor, was busy running around the garden, making jokes and laughing. Jerry, more reserved and stoic, watched his friends with a calm smile, while you, being a bit moody yet generally happy, played nearby. Gitae, Gapryonโ€™s oldest son, sat on the steps, brooding and occasionally rolling his eyes at the younger kids' antics. He was in that difficult transitional age where he felt misunderstood and often annoyed by everyone around him.
Inside the mansion, Gapryon and his right-hand men, Jinyong Park, Baekho Kwon, and other members of Gapryong's fist enjoyed the party. Gapryong, a fierce yet caring leader, laughed heartily with his friends, while Jinyong kept an eye on whole buster - trying to mesmorise warm moments with his dearest friends.
Suddenly, the door to the grand room burst open, and you ran in, tears streaming down your face. The room fell silent as you launched yourself into your fatherโ€™s arms, sobbing.
"Daddy! Daddy!" - you cried, clutching Jinyongโ€™s shirt tightly. - "Jake is threatening my life!"
The adults in the room exchanged confused glances. Jake, the sunny and optimistic boy, threatening someone? It seemed impossible. Moments later, Jake stumbled into the room, his face flushed and red as a tomato. His heart raced with a mix of embarrassment and panic, as he feared what you might say. - "I'm not threatening her life!" he exclaimed, clearly flustered. The room erupted in confusion at the sight of the two young children so passionately arguing. Jinyong petted your hair gently, trying to soothe you.
"What happened, sweetheart?" - he asked softly. You wiped your tears and took a deep breath, ready to present your case. - "Daddy, Jake said he wants to MARRY ME! Can you imagine?!"
Laughter filled the room as Jake, embarrassed and blushing even harder, protested, - "No, I don't!"
"Yes, you do!" - you insisted, sticking your tongue out and pointing at him with your finger. But Jake kept arguing and room filled with child's screams of "Yes" and "No"
"I'm gonna marry only my daddy!"
Gapryong, who loved you as his own child, chuckled and decided to tease you a bit. - "But doesnโ€™t your dad already marry your mother, huh?"
You froze, shock and confusion crossing your face as you turned to look at your father, your eyes welling up with fresh tears. Gripping his shirt tightly, you asked, - "Daddy?... Is that true?" - Jinyong, trying to contain his laughter, nodded. - "You know, baby, your mother still needs a husband, right?"
"Traitor! Daddy is a traitor!" you declared dramatically, eliciting more laughter from the adults. Jake watched you, feeling a pang of resentment and a deeper, unspoken feeling. He had a childish crush on you, and though he didn't fully understand it, he knew he liked you a lot. The idea of marrying you seemed natural to him, even if he was too young to grasp its full meaning. Determined and full of childish resolve, you slid off your fatherโ€™s lap and marched over to Gapryong. "Then... then..." - you stammered, trying to form your next plan. Gapryong, enjoying the moment, leaned down to your level. - "Then what, little one?" - he asked with a warm smile.
"Then I'll marry... Uncle Gapryong!" - you announced, much to the amusement of everyone present. Gapryong laughed heartily and scooped you up in his arms. - "Well, I'm married as well! And Iโ€™m afraid Iโ€™m too old for you, sweetheart."
As everyone in the room tried to hold back their laughter, you pouted, realizing your grand declaration might not work out as planned. But the genuine affection and warmth from your family made the moment one to remember. Jake, still blushing, sighed with relief and muttered to his father, - "See? I wasn't threatening her life..."
The room erupted in laughter again, the adults and children alike sharing in the joy and absurdity of the moment, making it a birthday celebration to remember. Just as the laughter began to die down, Gapryong, still smiling, said, - "How about Jake anyway, huh?"
You shook your head vigorously. - "NO!! Uncle Gapryong, don't you understand that Jake spends all his time with Jerry! And they're always hugging!" - You crossed your arms defiantly, misinterpreting their fights as affectionate embraces - "I don't want my husband to hug someone else!" - More laughter filled the room, but you remained serious, big tears still streaming down your cheeks. You jumped off Gapryong's lap, desperately looking for a solution. Your eyes landed on Gitae, who was brooding in the corner of the room. With sudden determination, you ran to him and clung to his neck.
"Then I'm gonna marry brother Gitae!" - you announced with a bright, triumphant smile. It seems that a clear vein of discontent appeared on your fatherโ€™s forehead and with an innocent smile the glass in his bare hand burst with a crash.
Gitae, caught off guard and visibly annoyed, was about to complain, but you turned to him with the most serious face, as if you were already an adult. - "One wrong word and I will say that I saw how you smoked this morning." - Gitae swallowed hard. It wasn't that he was scared of his mother's reprimands about smoking, but he simply nodded, not wanting to cause more drama. - "Whatever, kid," - he muttered.
Jinyong, not a big fan of Gitae, still with his eyes closed and that innocent smile said, - "I will apply for divorce next morning, hun. Come back to daddy."

The adults had announced their departure a thousand times, each attempt to leave thwarted by another round of drinks, another shared memory, or another joke that sent the room into peals of laughter. Gapryong, at the center of it all, held court with his booming laugh and sharp wit, Jinyong Park matched his pace drink for drink. The room was alive with stories of old scars and forgotten battles, of triumphs and losses, each tale punctuated by hearty toasts and the occasional rowdy song.
In the midst of the adults' revelry, the children, worn out from their own antics, began to succumb to sleep. Jake had run out of steam, Jerry yawned widely before finally giving in, and you, found your eyelids growing heavier by the minute.
As the night deepened, the adults continued to assure one another that they really should be heading home, only to be drawn back into another round of drinks or another hilarious story.
Unbeknownst to the adults, the three of you sneaked out of main room to try to distract yourselves from the impending sleep and fatigue, and decided to play hide and seek. As the hours ticked by, the party showed no signs of waning. But eventually, the night began to wind down, and the adults started to gather their belongings, preparing to leave.
"Alright, everyone, I think it's really time to go now," - Gapryong announced, albeit somewhat reluctantly. His words were met with nods and murmurs of agreement, though none made a move to actually stand up. Jinyong glanced around, suddenly realizing that the children were nowhere in sight. - "Where are the kids?" - he asked, a note of concern creeping into his voice. The adults exchanged worried glances and began to search the mansion, calling out names and checking every room. The once noisy and cheerful group was now a flurry of anxious activity, peering behind furniture, checking under tables, and opening every door they came across.
"Jake? Jerry? Where are you?" - Gapryong called out, his deep voice echoing through the halls.
It was Baekho Kwon who finally stumbled upon the scene. Opening the closet door, he found the three of you nestled among the fallen clothes, fast asleep. He couldn't help but chuckle at the sight before calling out to the others.
"I found them! They're in here!"
The adults rushed over, relief washing over their faces as they took in the adorable sight. You, still peacefully asleep on Jake's hand, throwing your head back and drooling on his arm, while he drooling on your shoulder and his arm protectively around you, Jerry's head rested gently on your lap, his calm, steady breathing a testament to the deep sleep only children could achieve. Gapryong smiled warmly at the sight. - "Well, would you look at that," - he said softly, his voice full of affection. - "Looks like they had their own little adventure."
Jinyong knelt down, carefully scooping you into his arms, not wanting to disturb your sleep. - "Come on, sweetheart," - he whispered, - "let's get you home."
Gapryong and Baekho followed suit, gently lifting Jake and Jerry, who barely stirred, their exhaustion too great to be roused by the movement.

Just imagine him fucking you with his long and thick cock and when you're about to reach your orgasm, he pulls out and teases the fuck out of you. He totally loves it when you whine and protest when he doesn't make you cum before leaning into your lips.
"Just a little more baby, you're going to be a good girl/boy if you wanna get what you want right?"

Tumblr media
yamazaki shingen does not get jealous. or at least, that's what he tells himself. jealousy, like any other emotion, is considered a weakness, and a weakness is something his countless foes will immediately grab on to once they catch sight of it, his father always told him.
he had learned to shut off his emotions a long time ago, ever since his embarrassing defeat against the famed gapryong kim from south korea. however he allows himself to have one simple weakness, despite his father and brother's disagreements, and that was you.
his darling, most treasured wife out of the ten women chosen just for him. you beauty shone through the others, and your quick-witted mind and equally sharp tongue was a stark contrast to the other women that only wished to survive in this cold, unfamiliar place.
shingen adored you. he favoured you, and that much was shown when he allowed you to keep your pinky, much to the displeasure of his brother. he gave you a strong and healthy boy with odd eyes, whom you proudly named gun, and treasured with your life.
shingen cherished you, anybody could tell. but do you love him too? this was a six-year question he never got the courage to ask.
which is why he is unsure of what to feel when he secretly follows you and your five year old son out of the compound and to a nearby public playground, and he sees a young boy bashfully coming up to you and showing a bouquet of wildflowers he had collected.
an odd feeling bubbles in his gut as he watches you smile warmly at the boy, patting his head with a gloved hand, gently taking the bouquet, complimenting it as you admired the flowers. nonsense. even shingen could make a better bouquet than that little brat could (he's lying) to give to you.
"what are you doing here?" shingen pauses in his train of thoughts, looking down, only to see his five year old son standing beside him with a blank look on his face, hands in his pockets. he wasn't even looking at the clan leader, merely staring unblinkingly at you in the distance.
the yamazaki head merely grunts, turning back around to watch you interact with the young boy. the little brat was getting bolder and bolder, daring to grab your hands in his grubby little paws and dancing around with you.
the father and son stood by the side, unnervingly identical blank dark eyes glued onto you, watching you interact with the child, and any passerby walking past them would have had to blink and rub their eyes, wondering if they were seeing doubles.
shingen spares a glance down at gun, and feels somewhat amused by how entranced his son was with you. truly, he thinks to himself as he returns his gaze to you. he is truly too much like his father.
he feels that same, odd feeling fluttering in his stomach as he watches the little beast motion for you to lean down, and braves a small peck against your cheek. the kid's face explodes in a fine assortment of red colours as the other children laugh and cheer, clearly entertained by this boy's foolishness. shingen watches as you merely smile at him and ruffle his hair, not saying a word.
to anybody watching, shingen and gun looked the same as before, but if they looked closer โ€“ really looked closer, they would see the exact same crease in between their eyebrows as their gazes became sharper, trained onto the boy.
shingen feels disheartened. why was it so simple for a young child you barely knew to kiss you on the cheek? he had been watching you, waiting for the perfect moment to give you a lil smooch, but each time you seemed to read his intentions and kept your distance.
shingen was frustrated. what was he doing wrong?
"MARRY ME!" the impudent little boy suddenly shouts, with flushed cheeks and a makeshift ring, made out of a little daisy he'd found.
immediately, both shingen and gun's head snaps towards him, death threats running through their minds. oh hell no.
meanwhile, you gave the poor, oblivious boy an awkward smile, extremely floored by the situation. poor kid, did he even know what he was getting himself into? by the looks of his expectant expression and hopeful eyes, clearly not. you clear your throat and open your mouth, ready to spout some bullshit, but someone else beats you to it.
"there you are, dear." you jump slightly in surprise as a deep voice murmurs in your ear, thick, strong arms snaking around your waist as your husband magically appears by your side, resting his chin on your collarbone, letting his hot breath fan your skin.
the little boy stares at shingen with a mix of indignation and fear. "w-who are you?!" he stutters out, and you had to admire his courage.
"i'm her husband." was shingen's immediate reply, and your eyes widen slightly to here the subtle pride in his voice.
the boy frowns. "no you're not! i'm gonna marry her, not you!" you sweatdrop slightly as the two males exchange heated looks โ€“ well, at least the boy's was heated, shingen looked purely amused, though you swore there was a tinge of annoyance that flashed through his eyes, though you could never telk what was running through that man's mind.
but unfortunately for the boy, he forgot that there was another formidable enemy headed right for them.
"kaa-san, is this shrimp bothering you?" your son smoothly steps in, gaze calm yet predatory as he looks down upon the inferior boy before him.
the little boy's eyes widen in fear as he recognizes gun, as do the children watching them with bated breath. "it's the playground demon!" a girl shrieks, and all the children flee in different directions, screaming their heads off, even your ever-so-valiant pursuer.
you chuckle a little, and sinply offer a loving pat on gun's head, who looks up at you with the same blank look, though your smile widens as you notice a fervent and soft tinge in his eyes as he gazes up at you.
shingen watches the exchange, feeling strangely out of place. he stiffens a little as you turn towards him, a gentle, yet unreading smile on your face.
out of courtesy, shingen wordlessly offers his arm, to which you accept, your other hand holding on to gun's tinier palm as the three of you begin your walk home.
"i noticed you'd followed my son and i here, lord yamazaki." shingen shows no reaction as your clear voice cuts through the awkwardness. he remains quiet for a few seconds, before turning to look down at you straight in the eyes.
"yes," he replies bluntly, and watches as you blink up at him, taken aback, clearly expecting him to dodge the question. your walls quickly rise as they had fallen, and your smile is quickly plastered back on.
"oh my, whatever for?" you chuckle as you continue your journey, and your voice turns teasing. "were you jealous, then? watching that little boy ask for my hand in marriage?"
"yes."
"ah, i expected-" you pause, and turn to stare at him disbelievingly. "...pardon?"
you weren't sure what you were expecting, but it definitely was not for the man beside you to avert his dark eyes, almost in embarrassment, suddenly looking like a kicked puppy. "are you... upset i interrupted?"
"how could i ever be?" and it's shingen's turn to be taken aback at how soft and genuine you sounded, it almost made him flinch in shock. "you are... my husband." you say quietly, ears tinged red.
a few more seconds of awkward silence pass, before the little gremlin decided to interrupt. "kaa-san, can you carry me?" gun asks blankly, stopping to raise his arms in your direction.
you smile, immediately taking your hand out of shingen's grasp, and the yamazaki clan leader is left with an unexplicable void in his heart as he watches you lift your child in your arms, smiling fondly at him as you continued walking.
suddenly, you stop and whirl around, smiling at shingen. and he realizes, with a start, that this was the first genuine smile he has ever received from you. and he loved it.
"it seems i have been neglecting my marital duties as a wife to my lovely husband," you hum, almost teasingly, a suggestive glint in your eyes. "i shall be visiting your bedchambers tonight, lord yamazaki."
warmth spreads through shingen's chest, and he allows the slightest of smiles to creep onto his face.
"i would love that too... my wife." and he takes a step, then another, and another, until he was directly in front of you. you beam up at him, and your little family walks home together.
yamazaki shingen loves you, and he's willing to wait however long needs be and make a fool of himself as many times as he has to for you to smile like that at him once more.
Tumblr media
extra:
"kaa-san, i was jealous that little imbecile asked to marry you just now. can you visit my bedchambers too?" gun suddenly questions, and you let out a small laugh at his funny request.
"silly boy, i do that every night." you hum in amusement, gently tapping his nose as you spoke.
"kaa-san, i meant you should visit my bedchambers and not my father's."
"..." you sweatdrop as the father and son exchange blank looks that conveyed malicious threats and murderous intent.

Gitae Kim x Reader Word Count: 1002 Masterlist ------------------------
You had just returned from meeting Bongae Choi with Jake. After stopping for a quick meal, the two of you were walking down Big Dealโ€™s street.ย 
You had known Jake since childhood, having grown up with him alongside Jerry. You had mutual respect for each other, and even if you werenโ€™t much of a fighter, he knew you could handle yourself if need be.
Jake cleaned his teeth with a toothpick while you walked beside him, your phone out, trying to call Sinu Han, who wasnโ€™t answering. It was starting to irritate you that he wasnโ€™t answering, I mean he didnโ€™t have much to do, so why wasnโ€™t he answering you?
Ahead of you and Jake, you finally see Sinu, along with a very tall and muscular man. Dare you say, handsome? (You do dare). They seemed to be fighting, but that was the last thing on your mind. You first had to complain to Sinu about him not answering your phone calls.
โ€œSinu, why arenโ€™t you answering your phone? Seriously Jake, we donโ€™t have to bring him with us do we?โ€ You exclaim, redirecting the last question towards the man beside you, who seems to ignore you.
โ€œWe were gonna get rice sou-, hey whatโ€™s with the vibes here?โ€ Jake says, dropping the toothpick to the ground as the stranger comes up and hugs him before saying โ€œFound youโ€ in a deep gruff voice.
The stranger was way better looking up close. Yep, you do dare say handsome. The scene however confuses you. Did Jake know this guy? Why were they hugging? It didnโ€™t make much sense because you knew all of Jakeโ€™s friends and this wasnโ€™t one of them.
โ€œFinally, the last oneโ€ A deep voice breaks through your train of thought. This stranger is now hugging Jake to his side, holding onto one of the gloves Jakeโ€™s father, Gapryong Kim, left him.ย 
โ€œHuh, last one? You mean fatherโ€™s gloveโ€ Jake questions the strange man. You pipe up, giving your two cents on what was happening.
โ€œThey are nice gloves Jake, you have to admit thatโ€ This leads the stranger to finally take note of you. He makes prolonged eye contact with you as he brings a smoking pipe and lighter to his lips, where a smirk forms. Waitโ€ฆyou know that lighter, itโ€™s Jakeโ€™s mothers!
โ€œShe said she would give it to me if I didnโ€™t kill her son. Your mom requested to not shed blood amongst relatives.โ€. Relatives? It all clicked, they didnโ€™t look identical but there were some similarities. The hair, the nose, that jawline, this was Jakeโ€™s half-brother, Gitae Kim!
โ€œIโ€™m gonna ask you a question. If I donโ€™t like your answer Iโ€™ll kill youโ€ Gitae states, thickening the tension that was already in the air. He wouldnโ€™t actually kill Jake, would he?
โ€œWhat do you think of Gapryong Kim?โ€. After hearing the question, Jake grabs Gitaeโ€™s shirt collar and looks up at him. Jake is already a big guy, but Gitae is ridiculously huge. He could crush you with one hand if he wanted to. I can only hope that Gitae hates Gapryong Kim just as much as Jake. I donโ€™t doubt his strength, but I doubt he could fight Gitae, the man was quite literally built differently.
You werenโ€™t listening but soon see Gitae pickup Jake like he is a baby. Holy Shit! That is the only thought that crosses your mind at what you are witnessing. That and how good-looking Gitae is, but that isnโ€™t important right now (or is it?). You heard the man say something in what you guessed to be Spanish before saying something that sent a chill down your spine.
โ€œThe only one among his children. I didnโ€™t like any of the other guys.โ€ It was starting to make sense. He had the lighter and pipe, and that shirt and hat looked familiar to you as well. Was he killing his fatherโ€™s children and collecting the parts of his father that were left to them!ย 
As soon as he put Jake down on the ground, his attention turned back to you. You held your breath as he walked over and towered over you. You had kinda hoped he forgot about you, but also, the aura this man held interested you. You wanted to know more about him.
He held his hand out towards you before asking in probably the kindest tone he could muster, that still somehow sounded emotionless โ€œLet me use your phone.โ€. Your body moved on its own, placing the phone youโ€™ve been holding in your hand all this time into his.
You saw him typing in something before a phone rang out. He pulled it from out of his pocket and declined the call. Then he returns the call from his phone to your phone. After pocketing his phone, he began doing something else. When he turned the phone back around, it was on a new contact saved as โ€˜Gitae Kimโ€™.
โ€œI added myself to your contacts, so make sure you answer when I message or call.โ€. In a state of shock, all you could do was nod at this information. โ€œWhatโ€™s your name?โ€ Gitaeโ€™s deep gruff voice says. Is it possible to fall in love with a man like this after what you just witnessed? Anything is possible I guess.
โ€œ(y/n) (l/n)โ€. A smirk places itself on Gitaeโ€™s face as he reaches down to take the hat off his waistband. You hear Sinu, who has moved next to you whisper โ€˜I thought he hated romance?โ€™ before turning to look at you baffled.ย 
โ€œI hope to see you later,โ€ Gitae says before turning around and placing the hat on his head. โ€œI havenโ€™t had this much fun in ages, little brother.โ€. With that, he walked away, leaving you, Jake and Sinu in shock. As the three of you stood there, looking at Gitae walking into the distance, you couldnโ€™t help but speak what was on your mind.
โ€œJake, your brother is kinda hotโ€
โ€œ(Y/N)!!!!โ€
------------------------
I have to admit it is kinda hard to write an x reader for a character who hates romance. I did my best, even if the romance is barely there.
There are probably a million spelling errors but I just wanted to get this out there. Idk why but this man is the one I've decided to stan. Probably because I like Jake so much too lol.

Masterlist
Tumblr media
"Hellooo...! Earth to (Name)."
The snapping finger finally released yourself from your daydream.
"Huh?" You turned to Jake. "Oh, sup J." You brushed your hair back.
"You alright? How far are you?" He leaned on the desk to your side. You shake you head, ignoring his question. "Sorry, what were we talking about?"
"Right." He nodded, decided not to pry on you further. He gestured the boxes and files, "You were helping me getting rid of these junks?"
Giving him a weird look as you put two and two together since it's obvious that he could've just given this task to anyone.
"If you wanna hang you could've just said so, you know." You deadpanned.
He shrugged innocently, "Guilty but I wanna be careful. See if there's some stuff I might wanna keep."
You grimaced, pulling a grin. "Might."
"Might." He cringed. "Because see this." He pulled out old photos to you. Most of them were Gapryong Kim, no doubt. Few were him with other folks.
You took them from his hand, looking closely for yourself, "What are you hoping to find? I thought you hated the guy."
"Can't a guy look around without feeling bitter? I ain't a sissy."
His casual reply made you rolled your eyes. But you get him. And good for him for getting over the grudge. Or not. It's no rocket science that he's just hiding it for the sake of his image. Especially to you. To anyone, really.
"Huh."
"What?" You turned at him.
"Didn't know he and (F/Name) knew each other. Not surprised but, damn."
Your brows lit up but luckily he didn't notice. You leaned closer towards him to take a good look at what he meant. And well what'd you know? His old man and your old man standing together.
"You...know him?" Jake nodded, "Not much. But I heard enough. I always wanna learn (F/Name) fighting style. That fist. I just couldn't get it right." He formed his own fist, demonstrating his failed attempt.
Your gaze trailed at his body posture curiosity. You take notes to what he lack. Almost as if you're be able to scan him right here and then.
"Like this." You instead automatically showed him how it's done without feeling like you're showing off. You aren't. You're just show what you know. So forming a fist of your own, you leaned your upper body forward slightly and push the air, mimicking a subtle punch.
"This?" He followed you, again still getting it wrong. You shook your head, scratching your neck, "It's a bit complicated. I don't know how to explain."
Jake grinned and relaxed his body once more. "Don't be like that. Teach me. You know didn't you? I've never seen you kick ass up close before, it's not fair."
You only chuckled and continue with the junks. But does he stop talking about (F/Name) after that? No. And it confuses you. What did he see in your father that you don't? To you, he was just a guy with knowledge to pass down before he grow old. But an old fashioned influencer? You legit thought the guy was a nobody. He was an isolated man. Respect or feared by many. Never in your life thinking he'd get out there. Let alone having friends. Friends are too generous. Colleagues are more like it.
"Does he...have any kid?" You didn't know why you asked that, but you were mindful enough be vague about it. You were quite curious now that you know your pop was, or still is a big shot. Might as well use the privilege by hearing it from Jake.
He nodded, tossing the papers into the burning barrel. "One. A son. Never seen him. People said he's good too. His first kill was when he was nine."
Your face hardened. First kill. Nine years old. You really didn't wanna hear about that. Seems like words do come around here. And a son. People refer you as 'the son'. It makes you wonder if that's what your father rather see you as or you just look like one. Besides, you hardly get by proper friends back then. Son or daughter, same difference. They were all afraid of him. The thought still makes you slightly somber. Your movement slowed.
Jake notices but continue, "Got something you wanna share? I won't bite. I'll get it if you have a bitter pasts with him. Consider how knowledgeable you are." He tossed the last one in his hands then sit down on a portable chair. "But I'm curious about what you've learnt. Hell, I'm not gonna lie, I'm very curious. So...why not be a doll and share it? With your favourite boy Jakey?"
Your solemnity faded, replaced with a snicker, "'Jakey'? You really know how to persuade me. You persuade better than girls do."
"Yes, well, it's part of the big deal." He lays out his one-liner like winning an award. You laughed, tossing the papers towards him but missed completely as they flew to the opposite direction. "Oh my God. You're not gonna stop using that, are you?"
He laughed with you, leaning back only to lose his balance and landed his back on the ground. You both shared another round of laughter.
"Okay but seriously. I can't know?" He kept himself laying on the ground for a bit, eyes stayed on you.
"I never said that. I'll be honoured to teach you." You sighed, stretching your arms. "Besides, I hate to keep you in the dark. We're friends-"
"Boyfriend and girlfriend." He quickly corrects you.
"Right, sorry. And I'm too guilty for not telling you that (F/Name) is actually my dad."
He nodded, "Yeah, I totally get that. I'd be to- wait." He paused, "...What??" now standing up to look at you properly. He comes forward and grasps your shoulder firmly with intense eyes. "Please. Teach me."
Save to say he took it pretty well. And as promised during your spare time you spar with him by teaching him what your father had taught you. Seeing him so concentrate surely piqued your interest. You have so much to focus on. From fixing his postures and techniques to his constant shirtless, sweaty, covered-in-tattooed self.
"That's it for today." You exhaled, wiping your sweat with a cloth.
"You go ahead, I'll meet you inside later." He insisted. But you didn't leave yet. "You could use the break too. I hate to...hit the shower alone." You muttered, hoping he didn't hear that part. But he did, now staring at you like a deer caught in a headlight. Now you feel embarrassed. You're no better than him. Flustered as he is.
"Nevermind, um, forget I said that." You turn your head sheepishly. He was quick to catch up with you. "No, no. I'll come too."
"No, it's fine-"
"I'm coming, no take backs. You, me, shower. Yes? Yes. Okay." He fastened his pace, pulling you by his arm effortlessly. He's totally gonna be the death of you.

Hello !! Do I ask for a Jinyoung Park x husband reader ? please fluff and one shot
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
NOSTOS . โบ JINYOUNG PARK
nostos: defined by homecoming, as after a long journey Gone are the days of an empty stomach and the taste of blood on your tongue. Tonight, your biggest worry consists only of explaining the ball of fur (wedged damply under your raincoat) to your oh-so-beloved husband. anon this is my first married fic ever so I hope this is decent enough fr pairings: jinyoung park + husband reader warnings: none! (literally my only one with zero warnings) wc: 1.1k
LOOKISM MASTERLIST
MASTERLIST ใƒปใ‚œใƒปNAVIGATION
Forgive me. Two words repeated themselves like pious mantras while you trudged up the stairs. The rubber of your soles colliding rhythmically against the linoleum of each step sounded comforting, unlike the frivolous allegro of your heartbeat. Residue rainwater left miserly puddles in your wake, and you felt guilty for the soft-spoken janitor whoโ€™d tend to the mud tracked into the flooring.ย 
Forgive me. For what? There were a million mellifluous syllables to describe the long wrongdoings of your life, but to list them all would blur them into flowery wine rather than the sour plums that they were. Lying to good people? Purging the murky cesspits of Gapryongโ€™s Fist? Muddying up the downtown apartment complex your penthouse had been reduced to?ย 
Gone was the gilt that came with the blood. Your biggest sin this week was making a babe cry with your brief glance, and perhaps the parcel wedged beneath your warm body and raincoat.ย 
With one hand, you fumbled a rusty key into your lockโ€”third floor, no lurkers, no telltale signs of intrudersโ€”and with the other, you clutched the bundle to your chest with the fervour of a starved man. Itโ€™s openโ€”!
โ€œOh.โ€ There he is.ย 
โ€œโ€˜Ohโ€™ is right. You are late,โ€ he seethed, eyes roaming from the very crown of your soaked head to the tips of your muddy boots. โ€œAnd youโ€™re getting mud everywhere.โ€
โ€œForgive me.โ€ You sounded perfectly contrite, and somewhat abashedโ€”and the sincerity in your tone caused Jinyoung Park to somewhat deflate. Youโ€” heโ€” he could never stay mad at the face of his downcast husband after all, even if he knew full well the trembling furrow in your brows had been practised and machinated until Gapryong damn Kim himself twitched in irritation at your performances.ย 
Well. You werenโ€™t the Infiltrator behind the Fist for no reason.ย 
โ€œIf youโ€™re sorry, take a hot bath before you catch a cold. Iโ€™ll heat up the jjigae so you donโ€™t get sick,โ€ he grumbled, but anyone and everyone who knew him could see the soft-worn affection behind his grousing. He wasnโ€™t your husband for no reason.ย 
There was no move from you. You remained holding your coat to your chest, ring glinting on your finger as you shifted. The back of his neck prickled.ย 
โ€œErr, might be a bit of a problem, doc,โ€ you said. Sheepishly. Like you always did before that mouth of yours caused your target to become tetchy as they threw something at you.ย 
His hand instinctively reached for your pink fluffy slipper on the shoe rack to whack your arm with.ย 
โ€œYou got injured? What did you do?โ€ But rather than land on his target, he grasped your arm. There mightโ€™ve been a meow. Did it come from you? Maybe. He could never be too sure with you.ย 
With a loud, obnoxiously obvious gulp, you slid the material of your windbreaker aside. It rustled as though it was making excuses for you, since you wouldnโ€™t argue your case. In fact, you would probably cheerfully agree with whatever he flung at you.ย 
โ€œAโ€ฆ cat. A cat,โ€ he stared dumbly. A soggy feline juvenile stared dumbly back.ย 
Huh?
โ€œAโ€ฆ cat?โ€ he repeated, still processing the mental shock. Its matted, damp grey fur and huge splotch on your shirt suggested youโ€™d carried this wretched creature for many miles. And, knowing you, you probably had. Despair wrought his face pallid.ย 
โ€œSurโ€ฆ prise?โ€ you echoed in a mimicry of his cadence, and he buried his forehead in his clammy palm. No, he prepared himself to say, already expecting the imminent question. No, his mouth formed. No. โ€œAnd itโ€™s a kitten, not a cat. Be nice.โ€
โ€œCan we keep him?โ€ you asked as though this wasnโ€™t the cheap apartment youโ€™d purchased in this district. No, he wanted to reproach, since you did somewhat acquiesce to his request on your whims. You stared, just as dumbly as him and that catโ€”an unfortunate trio if he ever saw one. โ€œWe can call him Jake.โ€
โ€œWe are not calling him the name of my nephew,โ€ he shot back instantly, then immediately cursed at both himself and you for your masterful deceitfulness. Damn you. Damn his silly, obnoxious, beautiful husband drenched and pitiful from the rain, pleading with those eyes of his and causing him to unintentionally fold. You played him like a damn fiddle.ย 
And judging by the bright beam you wore, it seemed you knew that a bit too well.ย 
โ€œWell, Iโ€™ll be off cleaning our dear nephew,โ€ you zipped past him, still clutching that little furball with all the tenderness of a new father. He was so lost in the happy glow of your smile that it took him quite a few seconds to recall exactly just what you had said.ย 
โ€œWe are not naming it Jake!โ€ he gritted out.ย 
โ€œYou can finally be the favourite uncle!โ€ you sang, partially drowned out by the flow of hot water.ย 
Staggering, he propped his elbow up against the thin door leading to the bathroomโ€”sharp glare poised right at it.ย 
When will I learn to refuse him?
ย . โบ ใ€€
โ€œWho are you and what the hell did you do to my husband?โ€ Shellshocked, you gaped at the scene before you; Jinyoung Park, the man you had sworn to cherish forevermore, had been replaced by someone whoโ€™d actually tolerated the kittenโ€™s presence. Nay, the man had the very furballโ€”that he glared atโ€”sequestered away on his very lap while he looked over research files from his lab. And he was stroking behind its ears and under its chin nonetheless!ย 
What a conundrum.ย 
โ€œBeing the favourite uncle,โ€ he replied with a half-smirk that couldnโ€™t be hidden from your prying eyes. For once in your long lifeโ€”riddled with more lies and deceits than you could countโ€”you were stumped.ย 
You cooed to the kitten, attempted bribing it with treats, and even brandished the foxtail youโ€™d found on your way back home. All for naughtโ€”the feline remained firmly wedged on his lap, and you couldnโ€™t believe your eyes.ย 
โ€œWell, your prophecy did work out. Weโ€™re both favourite uncles now,โ€ he bragged, and a tear mightโ€™ve slipped from your eye as you watched the heartwarming scene.ย 
โ€œSave a space for me on the couch after I shower,โ€ you demanded, though it was not with any malice nor aggressionโ€”just a raw affection for this little bubble.ย 
โ€œIโ€™ll see.โ€ However hard he denied it, he was still that wily man youโ€™d fallen for; in the hazy evening lamplight, though, he was much softer round the edges.ย ย 
And perhaps you were too.ย 
For despite your lack of piety, you sincerely prayed this would be the domain of the future.

Hello! :D
I see that ur requests are open, if they're not, then uh, ignore thsi (ใ€€๏ผ›โˆ€๏ผ›)
anyway
may i request gun and samuel (if u write for him ^^) with a gn s/o who's rlly cheerful but has seperation anxiety?
ty and have a nice day/night! :D
Thank you for your request!
[ Park Jong Gun, Samuel Seo x Gn! Reader ] - Gn! s/o who's cheerful but has separation anxiety.
Tumblr media
Park Jong Gun:
This man didn't notice anything at first, you were so cheerful and there wasn't anything that alerts him or can make alarm bells ring inside of his head, well, save for the supposed clinging. But Gun sucks it up to be your love language of some sort, he loves it when you cling to him.
He loves it when you depend on him, your arm intertwining with his while your head lays on his shoulder. Heaven.
But somewhat after he does notice some of your clinging tendencies worsen, for example, like, being in distress when he's about to leave for work, excessive worry about him dying or getting injured, and worried about unexpected events that may cause Gun to be gone for weeks or even worse months. He thought of it as you being too overly worried for him and he likes it, no one has ever cared for him this personally before.
Of course, with love comes with dislike. Gun's a man whose very purpose is to be an enigma, a mystery that is supposed to be solved by other people. He has a lot of secrets and his line of work is dangerous. He is worried about you coming with him when he's at work. Also, all of his colleagues are weirdos and he doesn't want their germs infecting you.
The man is blunt and would ask you to back off, he's tired from work and he wants some space for himself too. Of course, he feels guilty for saying that to you but there's little to bear with, when you explain to him that you have separation anxiety, his guilt will double.
"Don't be sorry [y/n], text me, or even call me if you ever feel distressed. I don't guarantee that I can pick up or answer you immediately and if I am free I would text you back or answer your call. I assure you, I will always come back home to you. You will never be left alone ever again with me by your side, got that?"
He became much more lenient than before, he will also buy you a lot of things that remind you of him.
Samuel Seo:
He knows that you have separation anxiety and kind of uses it against you sometimes (sorry for all the Samuel Seo fans out there.) With how this man has been hell-bent on making Gapryong Kim notice him and be proud of his accomplishments when he was a middle schooler, he would have some issues too.
Especially when he found out that his father wasn't the one he had been expecting, and when Samuel strangled the life out of the man, and as Samuel watched the light in those orbs get sucked out of those eyes that looked characteristically similar to his, he gets jealous.
And now he's stuck with a never-ending inferiority complex that can never be healed, of course, when he started to date you, his inferiority complex has slightly gotten better, especially with how cheerful you are, your cheerfulness makes his day a whole lot better.
He's lowkey boasting about his relationship with you with Jake, "see that, you might be Gapryong Kim's son, but have you ever experienced an s/o's touch before? No. You're just a virgin." Okay, I don't exactly see him saying that but it kind of does look like that when he gloats to Jake.
And when he finds out that you get anxious or distressed when he's separated from you? His love meter for you went to the roofs, he hasn't experienced anything when it comes to love and he was neglected ever since his childhood days, and now someone can't sleep when he's not beside them? Gets anxious when he's not there? He loves it.
Assures you that he will never leave your side, when Samuel falls in love he falls in hard, he's entirely dedicated to this relationship, he will answer all of your calls and text, a meeting about a new business opportunity? Wait a damn second, [y/n]'s calling.
Eugene's tired of his bullshit but he's good with what he does that's why he just pays no mind to it.
"How are the third and fourth affiliates doing? Samuel Seo." Eugene's voice echoes throughout the meeting room, the other occupants now staring at the man whose suit looks like it's about to pop near his chest area, as Samuel was about to open his mouth to report his duties, a low ding was heard inside of his pockets, the notification sound familiar to his ears with how it is his designated ringtone if you ever called or text him, or in this case, a text.
Samuel slams down a folder that holds hundreds of paperwork that involves the third and fourth affiliates and explains the summary with quick speed to Eugene causing everyone to almost have nosebleeds with how fast he is talking, though everyone can still perfectly and clearly understand him, his reports were always sincere and with perfect clarity after all.
After the full-on fucking rap from Samuel, he sits himself down calmly before taking out his phone with a smile on his face, Eli just looks at him weirdly while Warren is full-on gawking and Nomen is just there needing a fucking translation on what the shitstorm Samuel just said.
"Oh hey, [y/n], what's up? Something wrong? No, I'm not busy. I just finished doing my report, yeah, I'm about to come home. Do you want me to buy food? Okay, what do you need? I'll buy all of it."ย

Being Goo Kim's Secret Friend: Gitae Kim
2.2k. G/N. Gitae Kim x reader. Reader is morally grey. Gets spicy (Prequel-ish: An Introduction) Other Masterlists
Tumblr media
โ€œSo, let me get this straight."
"Mm." Goo hums, meaning go ahead.
"You're paying me to babysit?"
"Man-sit," he interjects.
"Whatever." You flap your hand, "but I am looking after this person, correct?"
"Yes my little sweetpea." Goo rests his head on your shoulder, so close you could count his eyelashes and see the way his pupils dilate. "It's my secret friend's first time back in Seoul after being away. It'll be good for you to show him around."
"...I'm charging my usual rate."
"Sure-"
"And you're covering our expenses."
He rolls his eyes, "Ugh, fine."
.
.
Gitae Kim, from what you have managed to find out, is patricidal and a powerful man with unsavoury dealings.
"Play nice," was Goo's parting advice when you came to him with your concerns.
"Play nice?!" You say, voice shrill. Goo grins.
"Fuck you, my rate just tripled."
The grin drops and is replaced by a scowl.
.
.
"I thought we could try this place. It serves the best yukhoe." You gaze over to Gitae sitting in the passenger seat as you navigate the roads, checking if there's any response.ย 
Nothing.
"Raw beef tartare." You explain, "I've heard you can be bloodthirsty."
His eyes flicker to you and you give him your most charming smile.
.
.
Head resting in your palm and elbow on the table, you observe him.
You find his table manners leaves a lot to be desired and watching him has put you off your own meal.
He eats like a beast but if the ferocity that he attacks his food is anything to go by, you're right on the money with guessing his taste.
"Let's get you another drink," you murmur, signalling for the staff. "Goo will kill me if you choke to death and I'm not practised with the heimlich."
.
.
"That was good, right?" You ask, striding alongside and trying to match Gitae step for step as he ignores you.
"I think you enjoyed it. Or you look like you did. I'm not really a fan of raw anything to be honest but gotta be a good host." You direct a smile his way and he hasn't even glanced over at you. You shrug it off and continue to ramble. "I'm still pretty hungry. There's a really good bubble tea place round here and they have a limited edition drink I want to get-"
"No," Gitae cuts in rudely.
"It won't take five minutes."
"No." He repeats, indicating there's no room for argument.
"Aww, cmon," you pout and he once again continues to ignore you. You consider going anyway, with or without Gitae.ย 
Goo, face scrunched up in anger and shrieking obscenities, pops into your mind's eye when you imagine telling him that you might have lost his secret friend because you wanted a bubble tea.
"Fine," you grumble and throw Gitae a dirty look.
.
.
Gapryong's eldest is a man of few words and it only adds to his intimidating and menacing aura.
You've seen his list of achievements and he is not someone you want as an enemy. But when someone is this difficult, your default is to try and see what response you can get out of them.
"You know they have vapes now," you signal at the pipe hanging from his belt as you continue to walk next to him.
"Do you smoke?" you ask, and expectedly, he doesn't respond,
"No? I guess it's cool you're committing to it for aesthetic reasons." Then dammit, you wonder what has gotten into you. Maybe it's hanging out with Goo too much because you can't help but add, "Even if it makes you a bit... y'know."
He slows, looking over at you at the same time that you pull a face. Indicating clearly you meant 'cringe' even if you didn't say it aloud.
"You do you though," you say, giving him a thumbs up.
He looks at you for a beat longer, head tilted and eyes narrowed, before continuing on his way with you scurrying to catch up.
.
.
By the end of the first week, Gitae has responded to exactly three things that you've said.
The second week, he's still mostly silent but he actually looks at you sometimes when you talk.
The third week, he calls you by your name when he demands your attention and you're surprised that he even knows who you are.
And the fourth - you manage to make him laugh.
Ok, maybe laugh is a bit generous, but he exhales harder than usual and you're sure he's at least amused.
.
.
GItae thinks you're strange.
You run your mouth like you don't know who you're talking to, though you anticipate his needs and preferences like you've been studying him for most of your life.
You're this side of irritating, but not irritating enough that he wants to kill you.ย 
And, the few times he tunes in to your comments, he admits that he finds you quite entertaining.
No-one has spoken to him like you do in a long time. There's a refreshing honesty to your words, and he's also confident that you're not going to stab him in the back at any second to wrest control of his cartel territory, which is also a welcome change from his usual company
It means that he can relax around you, or relax as much as someone like him can..
All in all, progress. Gitae finds himself trusting you like you're his second-in-command.
.
.
"What do you do for fun?" You ask. Gitae doesn't respond.
Right, you think, back to ignoring me.
You roll your eyes and start to ramble about this and that. You tell him that you're chronically online, giving a wry smile, and say it's a general side effect of your job but at least it's interesting to know the ins and outs of a few things.
Really though, maybe you should consider taking up some exercise to get fit or even as a form of self defence with your line of work and the people you come into contact with (you give Gitae a side eye at this) but it's kinda hard to find the time and-
"I can teach you," comes Gitae's low voice.
"What?"
"I can teach you," he repeats and your mouth drops open in shock.
.
.
Ok, as far as bad ideas go, this is a terrible one.
First, Gitae is huge. There is no chance you could even win in a spar or anything against him. You doubt even bullets would be able to penetrate that muscle.
Second, there is a lot of close contact and even more touching.
You aim a punch with all your might at him, any part of him. He deflects without effort, capturing your fist in his palm and he pulls you to his body. Chest against your back, wrapping his arms around you and pinning your own to your side as you try to wriggle out of his grasp.
He leans down to murmur into your ear. "You're very weak." You can feel his voice rumbling through his chest. "But you're very fun."
Your eyes snap to his at his words.
He's grinning, for the first time you've been with him. Eyes crazed and pupils blown, breath hot on your skin.
"Thanks!" You dip your head just before throwing it back sharply, connecting to Gitae's nose with a loud crack.
.
.
Gitae's nose isn't broken though it is bruised.
You apologise profusely and he tells you you have nothing to apologise for.
"It's a great hit."
You halt in your apologies, peering up at him through your lashes with a smug smirk, "I know."
.
.
Your response plays on his mind.
The lift of your lips, the sharpness of your smile, the confidence in your eyes, that half-lidded gaze.
"I know."
.
.
Gitae sees you in a new light.
He has enough of an understanding of Goo Kim to know that he's selective with his secret friends, and you have talked enough that Gitae also understands you play the role of brain rather than brawn.
Though he did not expect such viciousness to hide under your veneer, or you to be capable of such an underhanded move.
He's impressed.
.
.
"Why do all these shows make Mexico so blue?" You ask, watching a scene unfold on your phone. "Is it actually?"
You hold out the device to Gitae, some drama show playing and Mexico is indeed blue tinged.
"No."
"Hmm. It'll be cool to see for myself." You murmur, pulling your phone back.
Gitae pauses. The idea of you in his territory is very appealing. He can demonstrate to you exactly the kind of man he is, the power he wields. He can relish the impressed (or horrified) look on your face.
"I can show you," he says and you beam at the offer.
"Deal!"
.
.
โ€œHow many people have you killed with this?โ€ you flex your hands, signalling โ€˜gimmeโ€™ and Gitae passes over his axe.
โ€œToo many to count.โ€
โ€œCool,โ€ you say nonchalantly,ย  testing your grip. Gitae gives you a strange look.
โ€œI gather intel, remember. Thatโ€™s my thing,โ€ you say, swinging the axe experimentally a few times and appreciating the heft behind it.
The meaning is clear: I know all your secrets and Gitae, to his surprise, feels some respite at this fact.
.
.
"Fuck," you squirm to no avail, trapped underneath Gitae as he looks down at you lazily, inches from your face.
Your wrists are pinned above your head, held in place by his grip as his other hand rests, light but threatening, on your throat.
You have had a few other training sessions since the first one, and the way they had gone was all pure luck. You had managed to gain the upperhand by complete fluke.
This time you feel completely stuck. Movement completely restricted. Gitae straddles your hips and youโ€™re left unable to escape. You have no way to get close and cause any damage.
"Looks like you lose," he says.
You buck your hips, trying to throw him off but the weight and strength difference is too vast. He barely moves even with all your effort and youโ€™re left more dishevelled than before. Shirt riding up and hair in your eyes and mouth.
โ€œFuck,โ€ you groan again, elongating the word and pouting.
You peer up at Gitae and find his eyes flicking between your jutted out bottom lip and your sliver of skin on show.
An idea pops into your head. It may be your worst one yet.
Throwing caution to the wind, you tilt your head up in one swift movement and kiss Gitae full on the mouth. You make contact harder than anticipated, almost clashing your teeth painfully together but adjusting the angle just in time.ย 
His body stills when he realises what youโ€™re doing.
โ€œWhy-โ€ he asks, pulling away, and you take advantage of the distance to nip at his bottom lip and reel him back in.
Gitaeโ€™s thoughts are cut off.ย 
You bite down roughly, feel your sharp canines punctuating skin.
Blood bursts onto your tongue and he lets out a guttural groan, eyes boring into yours and darkened with lust.
His other hand releases your wrist, caressing over your body, slipping down until it reaches your bare exposed skin. He slides his palm under your top, long, thick fingers splaying over your ribs.
With your hands now free, you continue kissing him, mingling spit and saliva and bursts of metallic tang.
You squirm and this time, Gitae gives in to what you want; rearranging his position without breaking contact. Tongue delving into your mouth. Tasting you as you wrap your legs around his hips.
Taking advantage of the situation, you hug your arms around his neck and use your body as leverage to flip him over. Straddling him as his hardness grinds into you and his hands circle your waist to press your body close.
You can feel exactly how turned on he is, how much he wants you. And god, youโ€™re just as fucking horny. You want him just as badly, except now youโ€™ve managed to climb on top, the whole point of this came rushing back. You absolutely hate yourself for stopping this but-
Itโ€™s the principle.
โ€œYou know,โ€ you murmur into his mouth, then pushing up off his chest to sit up, โ€œI think Iโ€™ve won. Againโ€
Gitae frowns at the sudden loss of contact, โ€œWhat?โ€
โ€œIโ€™ve won. Pretend this is a knife,โ€ you smirk, holding your hand against his throat, in an almost-mirror image of your previous position. โ€œI would have killed you.โ€
Gitaeโ€™s eyes widened in surprise, โ€œYou did thisโ€ฆ to win?โ€ย 
โ€œYep!โ€
โ€œI didnโ€™t expect you to play so dirty.โ€ He says, grinning maniacally as the pieces click into place and he finds himself completely captivated.
โ€œI play as dirty as I need to,โ€ you tell him, tongue swiping out to lick the remnants of his blood from your lips before dipping your head down to kiss him and continue where you left off.

Jake Kim x Reader: Right Person
G/N. 5.2k. Childhood friends to lovers, sorta canon compliant.
Tumblr media
The first time you meet Jake, you are the right person at the right place.
Almost.
Both precocious pre-teens and families already intertwined.
Your father does something with his father, but that always seems to be the case, everyone knows Gapryong. Works with him in one way or another. He has all sorts of connections.
The peculiar thing though, at least to Jake's pre-pubescent mind, was that he met you.
Few of his father's underlings or 'business partners' have a child that tag along. Fewer still that are seen as an equal.
Apart from being told to call him Oppa, you don't have any other formalities to follow. You stick your tongue out at him, tease him, laugh at his jokes. He in turn shares his candy and sticks of gum and saves all his best punchlines for you.
Minseong, or Auntie as you call her, always smiles at you; calling you precious and talking about how you and Jake would be a great match to join the families.
That could have been a possibility. If fate had been kinder his childhood crush could have blossomed into puppy love and everyone would have been thrilled at the development.
But before anything was allowed to flourish, fate had other plans.
Gapryong is murdered, and your and Jake's life take a different course.
You attend the wake, offering your condolences and saying all the right things in these unfortunate occasions.
Holding Auntie's hand in yours and telling her you're sorry. In the quiet of his bedroom, you wrap your arms around Jake's shaking body, rubbing circles into his back, kissing his forehead, even as he tries to hold it together.
.
.
For a brief moment of time after, you and Jake are like glue. Joined at the hips, never seen without the other.
Staying by his side as he gets his irezumi tattoos, oohing and aahing as he unveils the healed ink to you. Pouting as he shoots up like bamboo, puberty taking hold; growing tall and gangly and a full head or three taller than you. Walking each other home from middle school, him waiting for you outside your school gates. Dropping the bombshell that he has to stay behind for another year; besotted as you lecture him about his awful grades.
Eventually, time moves on.
Your family find better connections and ventures - respectable, creditable, without any of the Kim family's gangster past, and quietly and without fanfare remove themselves from the late Gapryong's inner circle.
They distance themselves, and though you ignore their request to do the same - Big Deal's boss, Sinu Han finds Jake Kim and so does Samuel Seo and the distance naturally grows.
Jake stays in the periphery of your life.
The occasional text, and rarer run-ins.
But he always keeps an ear out for you. Looks for you in every reflection. Hopes for you round every corner.
Right person at the right place but at the wrong time.
.
.
He does purposely seek you out once.
When he is on the cusp of joining Big Deal and needs someone sane to talk to.
To decipher his thoughts and feelings with the one person who knows him best.
It's you, it's always been you but-
After, he fully realised how different you both are. The trajectories you are on. You, untainted by all this gang shit, and him about to dive head first into it.
He can't marr you with this.
Wrong place, wrong time.
.
.
You sought him out once too, in the form of a letter as he serves his time in juvie.
Jake marvels at your handwriting, chicken scratch somehow turned graceful and elegant with time.
Yet-
Awkward silences punctuate the end of each sentence, and disappointment is found between the lines. Your tone is almost pleading, and there's a desperate yearning for yesteryear.
Jake chooses instead to focus on the crumbs of your life you offer. Thinks at least you're happy and safe and ignorant to the sort of life he leads now.
He keeps your letter under his pillow. Reads it over and over until he can recite it off by heart. Drafts a different reply in his mind every night though he can never bring himself to respond.
.
.
"Jake?"
The next time you see him again, he barely recognises you. Whether that was due to seasons apart or his focus on other priorities, he isn't sure.
He turns his head when you call his name, Johan Seong following suit.
"You look different," you comment and he does. Jake finally fills out his tall frame, lean muscle showing through his suit and a scar now adorns his lips.
He tilts his head, trying to place you until you frown. A familiar look of impatience, rolling your eyes-
"Y/N?" Your name feeling rusty on his tongue and his eyes widen at your appearance. How well the years have treated you, how kind puberty has been and how amazingly you clean up.
"Too important now to remember me?" You say, folding your arms but smiling.
"Me? I'm a nobody," Jake grins, relaxing in your presence as Johan mutters his agreement somewhere in the background. "What are you doing around here?"
In the end, he rejects your entrance to Club Vivi.
"Aw Jake, cmon for old time's sake!"
"You're underaged!" He says, but what he wants to tell you is this place is bad news. The further you stay away from anything to do with the Four Crews, from himself, the better.
"Shit!"
You manage to refrain from stomping your feet like a bratty child, distracted by the way that Jake smiles at you. Even with the pulsating music spilling out onto the street, the heaving queues of people, it feels just like it used to.
A wave of nostalgia hits you.
You reach out, yanking him down by his tie until he is eye level with you.
"Whatever." You thought you might be more upset with the rejection but you can't bring yourself to care right now. Not when Jake Kim is right there. "Text me, ok? I don't hear from you anymore. I miss you."
Jake's throat is suddenly dry.
How many years has it been since he's been eye to eye with you. He remembers his mother's fondness of you, your tinkling laugh in his ear. You by his side, the kisses on his cheek and soothing strokes on his back.
"I miss you t-"
Then Johan Seong clears his throat, uncomfortable at being caught up in this scene and wanting to be literally anywhere else, and Jake's eyes dart towards him.
God Dog.
One of the four gangs.
A mess of underhanded dealings involving Gun Park and Goo Kim. God Dog and Big Deal and Hostel and Workers.
The current situation draws sharply into focus, and Jake is reminded of his main goal - Sinu Han.
The spell is broken and Jake's mask as Big Deal Boss slams firmly back on.
"Sure thing," Jake straightens up again and you have no choice but to release your grip.
He doesn't plan to. Doesn't want to drag you into his mess. Swallows down any regret and feelings and offers you a wink instead.
Still the wrong place, wrong time.
.
.
Despite Jake's best intentions you are reunited.
You join Big Deal.
...Or more accurately, you find employment on Big Deal Street.
"Y/N?" Jake calls out to you and today your role is reversed.
It takes you a while to recognise your Jake dressed in his suit, a new scar across his nose and flanked by intimidating looking men. Body language serious, powerful and domineering.
Goddamn.
"...Jake?!"
"Everything ok, Boss?" Someone asks and your eyebrows quirk at 'Boss'.
"Fine, Jerry," Jake dismisses any concerns from the hulking man to his right and turns his smile on for you once more, "Just nice to see an old friend."
He lips says friend but his heart wonders if he has the privilege of calling you that anymore.
Are you barely even acquaintances? Someone you might bump into and give a polite nod to. Was he that teenager that you used to hang with once upon a time who you occasionally reminisce about? Do you ever think about him and wonder how he is doing? Do you think about the moments that you had together and the lives you could have had?
Turns out it doesn't matter anyway.
Jake catches the softness in your eyes and he sees that friend is enough.
It could be enough.
.
.
Now working part time at the restaurant Jake likes to frequent, you bump into each other time and time again. You become a regular fixture in his life once more.
Serving him extra large portions with a grin, offering up pickle juice with every stew.
"You still add this to all your jjigae, right?" You pull a face, it was never to your taste even if Jake acts like it's the most delicious thing in the world.
Jake blinks in surprise. "You remembered?"
You wipe your hands on your apron, then rest them on your hip. "Duh."
The other faces you gradually put a name to.
Jerry, Brad, Jason, Lineman, and later Lua.
You join them occasionally for the odd drink, perched at the end of the bench next to Jake and soaking up the warm atmosphere, or more likely the boys getting a telling off from Lua even as she throws you a small sly grin every so often.
Sinu and Yeonhui join the group now and then.
The latter takes a liking to you and the former gives you unsubtle glances, elbowing Jake and murmuring things in his ears that causes him to blush and bat Sinu away.
He's talking about you, that much is obvious but you wonder what it is exactly that turns Jake that cute shade of pink.
"What are you saying about me?" You whisper into Jake's ear one time and he jerks sharply at your proximity. Banging his knee against the table so hard that it topples some drinks.
"Shit!"
"Jake!" Yeonhui tuts, "Be careful."
Sinu, arm around her, just grins like a maniac.
.
.
You: Sooooo...
You: What is Sinu always whispering about?
Jake: Don't worry about it ๐Ÿ˜˜
You: ๐Ÿ˜’
Jake: Sorry we didn't get to talk much today.
Jake: Hope you're ok
You: Don't worry about me!

You: I've still got your jacket!
Jake: No worries I'll get it tomorrow
You: Thanks for letting me borrow it
You: and walking me home
Jake: M'lady
You: ๐Ÿ˜’
Jake: Good morning ๐Ÿ˜
You: Too early ๐Ÿ˜ช
Jake: It is. But i'm looking forward to seeing you later
You: Still can't believe you sprayed jjigae out your nose
Jake: You caught me off guard!
You: It was just an innocent comment
You: Who knew where your filthy mind went
Jake: ๐Ÿ˜’
Jake: You made Brad blush!
Jake: brad!!
You: ๐Ÿคญ
You: Can you ask Jerry to stop calling me ma'am?
Jake: Will do
Jake: Sorry ma'am

You: Do you always train like that?
Jake: Yeah why?
You: Oh ๐Ÿซฃ
You: Why does everyone in your crew keep bowing to me
Jake: Who knows why they do what they do

You: It's all from a place of love
Jake: Sure ๐Ÿ™„
Jake: You working tonight?
You: Yeah and you better keep me company ๐Ÿ˜š
Jake: Always
.
.
During your closing shifts, when Jake is around, your boss and owner, is frequently nowhere to be seen.
You wonder if Sinu is responsible for this but you can never bring yourself to mind when Jake stays behind, offering to help.
Removing his jacket and rolling up his sleeves as he wipes down surfaces with you, loads the dishwasher, clean the floors.
"Isn't this beneath the Big Deal leader?" You ask tonight, mopping as he clears and re-organizes the counter.
Jake shrugs, "I don't mind."
(Truth be told, Jason and Brad had given him a questionable look through the shop window once, when they were patrolling the streets at night and found their beloved boss performing menial duties.
Then they saw you grinning next to him and the way Jake looked at you.
And they got it. They, and no other Big Deal member, had questioned it since.)
You resume focus to your task at hand, wringing out the filthy water and scrubbing with earnest.
Damn, this patch of floor is dirty.
Despite pouring all your strength into this section, the mysterious grey splodge, which has likely accumulated from years of slipshod mopping, still has not shifted.
Noticing the sheen of sweat along your brow, Jake plucks a napkin from the holder and offers it to you. "Here."
"I'm fine."
"Your sweaty face says otherwise."
"Nah, I'm good."
You narrow your eyes at the stain, so absorbed in your task you don't notice his approach.
Contemplate getting on your hands and knees to examine it when Jake's hand edges forward, gripping your chin gently, and disrupts your train of thought.
"Come here." He huffs with amusement, angling your face to his.
Your eyes widen comically large and he chuckles. He brings the napkin up to your brow, dabbing attentively. Your temples and down the side of your face, the tip of your nose, before cupping your cheek.
"There."
There indeed.
You lean into his palm and sigh. A sigh built up from the depth of your being, that started from years ago, and your eyes flutter close when you feel Jake's thumb run along your bottom lip.
It's more intimate than you have ever been before but doesn't feel anywhere close to enough.
"Y/N-" he murmurs. Your name feels rusty no more.
Jake leans closer. LIke a moth to a flame, and your flame burns undying and gold.
Knuckles rap on the window, shattering the moment. You both turn and see Jerry with a solemn look on his face.
"One moment," Jake says, eyes apologetic and he exits.
The moment stretches as you watch Jake talking to Jerry outside. Both their expressions growing more fierce, exchanged more heated, by the second.
Jake sighs, and his sigh is nothing like yours only minutes ago. His eyes catch yours. He thinks he might regret this forever, wondering about the lingering what-if, but he thinks about your safety and the safety of Big Deal, and he leaves. Striding off into the night.
Jerry comes in, contrite and bows. Tells you sorry but Jake has somewhere else to be.
Leaves you even more bewildered and confused, wondering what has happened.
.
.
Workers storm the street only a few days later.
The Hunt for Big Deal peaks when Eugene, not able to get his way, calls in his favour.
Holding back the police, intrusive thoughts of his failure as a leader enter Jake's mind. The state of the street, the crew. Members of Big Deal lie bruised and bloodied around him.
The one silver lining, at least, is that you're nowhere near.
You're not tangled up in this.
.
.
Maybe it could have been the right place.
But the time cannot be more wrong.
.
.
You and Jake had left your friendship hanging at an odd place that night.
Then he never called, never texted.
(Neither did your boss, but you didn't care about that.)
You glumly scroll through your text chain with him. All the flirtatious words that you had assumed were building up to something.
You sent him one message asking if he was ok, an olive branch and permission to forget everything if it made him uncomfortable and he didn't respond.
The silence said everything you needed to hear.
You are left to wallow and mope in your gloom.
.
.
Jake is awake. Broken and bruised but alive.
Left to deal with the aftermath, the pieces of his crew, with the ever loyal Lineman by his side.
Forces himself to push on when all he wants is to curl up in a ball somewhere. Put on a brave face because what else can he do? Recollect his thoughts, rethink his strategy.
Lineman and Lightning Choi are very little comfort to Jake during these hours. Even as both their loud personalities fill in the silence, camaraderie building between them by the day, Jake feels fragile. Stretched thin and strained.
Regardless, he plasters on his plastic smile. The one he used to wear when he was looking for Sinu and trying to hold on to his sanity.
Funny how life comes full circle.
In his heart and head, he knows that all his focus should be on getting stronger, on saving his crew.
But your latest text, left on read and left hanging, haunts him.
.
.
The Wanted posters capture your attention and snap you out of your mood.
'What the...?''
Pictures of your friends pinned up in the convenience store. Bounties in stark black font show beneath their faces.
You abandon your goods, your treats and pick-me-ups mid purchase and make your way to Big Deal Street as quickly as you can.
Navigating public transport and running until you're panting and out of breath and sweat blurs your vision.
Everywhere is shuttered and closed.
.
.
Everything Jake does, tastes, drinks is tinged with bitterness.
Nevertheless, a routine forms and with each passing day he feels more like himself.
Determination returns.
He trains alongside Lineman even though Lightning Choi insists that he can't teach Jake anything.
Feels his strength returning and muscle growing. Busies himself with preparation in all forms.
โ€œHere,โ€ Jake sets down fresh cooked ramyeon in front of Lineman who looks up at him in surprise. โ€œEat up. You need it with all your training,โ€
Lineman wells up with gratitude, โ€œBoss!โ€
It's a simple meal.
Packaged noodles Lineman has had thousands of times before but it's the best thing he has ever tasted.
.
.
In return, Lineman does something for Jake.
He's not sure it's the right thing to do at first, but anyone with eyes can see Jake moping around like a lovesick puppy.
He extends the reaches of his network.
Calls in long owed favours, reconnects to people in his old Monster Crew, people he trusts that won't spill his whereabouts. Asks everyone to keep an eye out, keep their ear to the ground.
Gold is struck when Lineman manages to locate Jerry.
Encouraged by agreement from Lua, who has stayed in contact with the No.2, that this is what the boss needs-
Lineman sets forth his plan.
.
.
โ€œBoss?โ€ Lineman knocks on Jake's bedroom door, a makeshift backroom full of cobwebs with a rickety sleeping cot.
Where Jake currently lies, face illuminated by his phone.
Lineman refrains from rolling his eyes. Probably going through his texts again.
The guy thought he was being subtle, but it's obvious as hell whenever he's looking at past messages with you. It's the only time a genuine smile graces his face before it inevitably turns forlorn.
โ€œHmm?โ€ Jake clicks the screen off and sits up as Lineman pokes his head around.
โ€œYou got a sec?โ€
โ€œSure thing.โ€
โ€œOk.โ€ Linemans head disappears again.
There's some minor commotion behind the door. Hushed voices squabbling and-
The door cracks open again and you step through.
.
.
When you got the call from Lineman, you leapt at the chance of seeing Jake again. To see that he's ok with your own eyes.
Give him a piece of your mind for icing you out, probably under some misguided sense of chivalry.
For not explaining a single thing to you and keeping you in the dark even as this huge shit storm rained down on him.
Worse of all, the audacity for leaving you on read.
Unfortunately, at seeing Jake-
The bruises, now mottled green and yellow, the cuts and scratches littering his skin, body bandaged and tender, the way his eyes have lost their light.
-Everything you planned to say and wanted to say goes out the window.
And you burst into tears.
Lineman, taking that as his cue, clicks the door shut.
.
.
Jake is stuck somewhere between elated and miserable.
You're here? You're really here?
But fuck. You're here.
Caught in this chaos.
When he thought he had managed to at least protect you if no one else, you show up when he's at his most powerless.
Then your lip quivers, and your nose lets out a telltale sniffle and-
Shit.
None of that matters.
Jake tries for a smile of his own but feels his own lips turning down.
โ€œWhat you crying for, dummy?โ€ Tone aiming for jovial, his own voice betrays him and cracks at the last syllable.
A small voice in your head is outraged. Who exactly is he calling a dummy, has he even seen the state of himself.
But you don't move, stay standing by the door, staring as the tears come thick and fast.
Until-
Jake opens his arm, an invitation, and you throw yourself at him.
He winces feeling your weight collide into his body and disturbing his injuries. Luckily your arms coming to hug him around the neck quickly dulls the pain.
He embraces you, one arm holding you close and other hand stroking your hair while telling you it's fine, he's fine, everything's ok.
God. He didn't even realise how much he missed you until you're here. Even the scent of your hair, the feel of your clothes.
Nevermind being able to touch you and hold you.
โ€œDon't you dare ditch me again,โ€ you growl into his shoulder.
Jake opens his mouth, about to argue-
Then you squeeze him tight, lips brushing along his skin and all fight leaves him.
โ€œOk.โ€
.
.
The initial reunion is sweet. Glued at the hip once more, one never seen without the other.
You forgive Jake with little drama and he is extra attentive. If he's not next to you then he seeks out your eyes in every moment, every scenario.
Quietly checking you're ok, you're happy. That this situation isn't more than you can handle.
When your eyes meet his, your face lights up and you give him a smile that melts his heart and all his defences.
โ€œI will go with you anywhere,โ€ you tell him one night, sitting on some dusty stairs.
โ€œI know,โ€ he grins.
Realistically, it's a problem. The other problem is that he always wants you with him too.
.
.
However.
The patience from others is short lived.
Lineman is pleased to have his leader back. See the bounce in Jake's step, the grin on his lips that reaches his eyes.
And who is Lightning Choi to get in the way of young love?
Watching you two laughing together, talking in hushed tones, sharing inside jokes warms his heart
Except.
You and Jake are a thorn in his side.
The incessant giggling is annoying. The constant whispering is distracting.
โ€œGet a room!โ€ He shouts over one day, at the end of his rope when Lineman mishears an instruction and ends up face planting.
That did the trick. Both of you avert your gaze and blush furiously.
Hmph. Young idiots in love.
.
.
โ€œYou're leaving for Gangnam tomorrow?โ€ You ask, lying beside Jake and resting your head on his shoulder.
โ€œThe First Affiliates,โ€ he confirms, clipped and tense.
With D-Day drawing closer, Jake has grown more on edge. Doubt creeping in if he's strong enough to infiltrate and reach Jinyoung Park. Even with the temporary alliance with Daniel Park, he's not sure if it's enough.
After all, the last team up with Charles Choi should have proved sufficient.
With 1A, Jake has given you information on a need to know basis. Kept the details light lest the worry extends to you. Despite his best efforts, you're concerned.
Although, for other selfish reasons.
You prop yourself up on your elbow and face him.
โ€œYou said you're not going to ditch me again.โ€
โ€œHuh?โ€
โ€œYou said!โ€ You jab at his chest with your free hand. โ€œYou said you wouldn't ditch me again. No matter what happens.โ€
Jake pulls a face, and it's one you recognise as regretting his words. Weighing up if being together is worth the potential danger you're put in and trying to worm his way out.
You cut off his spiralling thoughts with another jab and scowl at him. โ€œPromise, asshole.โ€
His eyebrows shoot up in affront, โ€œWho you calling asshole?โ€
With one swift movement, he flips you over. You lie flat on his back as he smirks down at you.
โ€œDon't distract me, asshole.๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ
โ€œIt's not my fault you're getting distracted,โ€ and the cocky little shit has the audacity to wink at you.
Ugh. You're serious and he's treating this like a joke. This position is also causing your thoughts to run away with itself.
โ€œJake,โ€ your gaze dips down to his lips and you angle your face up to his.
He peers down, half-lidded and playful.
โ€œYes?โ€ He inches closer.
โ€œStop it.โ€
"Stop what?โ€ And closer.
โ€œPromise me,โ€ you murmur, lips gently brushing against his. Tips of your noses grazing, his hair falling out of place and breath, minty and sweet on your skin.
โ€œI promise.โ€
Jake pulls back, enough to look into your eyes. Searches and searches, warm brown eyes boring into yours for what feels like an eternity.
Then finally-
Finds what he's looking for.
And he kisses you, hard. Pours everything, his heart, his hopes, fears and doubts, into the one kiss.
.
.
Jake finds Jinyoung but loses Samuel.
Finds out more than he expected about Samuelโ€™s background. Pieces together his background with their falling out, his complexes. At least Jake is able to understand him a little more.
Jerry is safe, if not further wounded from his fight with the Fifth Affiliates - no, with Hostel.
But he's safe. So are Brad and Jason and Lua.
Overall, he considers it a success even if it's middling at best.
.
.
Jake has promised you.
Yet-
He wonders if some promises are better to break.
He thinks it would break you too. A little. In a way that you can recover from, he lies to himself.
He opens his mouth, wanting to ask Lua a favour, a huge goddamn favour. Maybe she can be the one that tells you.
Jake would be indebted to her forever. Probably get eaten alive by the guilt, but surely it's the kind thing to do.
Lua glares at him before he even gets a word out. It's the most angry she has ever looked.
Jerry is the one who responds. โ€œDon't you dare, Jake.โ€
.
.
The thing is, there might never be the right place and right time. At least not in Jake's foreseeable future when there's danger lurking around every corner.
He had initially assumed you and him weren't meant to be, life destined to run on different paths. Had given up at first, when you were both just kids, then given a sliver of hope when you met again.
Except isn't that worse than having no hope at all. To get a taste, a glimpse of what he could have?
He has tried to be so good, so selfless.
A good son and a good friend and a good leader. Tried to give everything his all and come up short and weak.
But for you, it never really mattered. You didn't want him to be anything but himself. Didn't care that he was Gapryong Kim's son or Big Deal No. 1.
With you - it's painfully uncomplicated. Even as all other areas of his life crumble.
You're still the right person. Even if nothing else had been right or felt right, you did.
You do.
And in the end, isn't that all that really matters?
.
.
Jake lets his selfishness take over.
Watches you from the doorway, pacing back and forth and is surprised you haven't worn a path into the floorboards.
Reasons with himself that he deserves this, deserves you. Thinks that he would go insane if he doesn't allow himself this.
This one thing, the most precious thing.
Something he held back and repressed for years. Putting everything but himself and his happiness first.
He's weak. He's simple. He wants to, needs to give in and he wants to be happy.
โ€œI'm back,โ€ he calls over, and your face snap to his in shock.
You ignore his new scars and fresh bandages. It doesn't matter because he's here. He's come back to you.
Jake opens his arms, an invitation, and you take one step, two, three-
And throw yourself at him. Clinging on. Feeling his skin, his body against yours.
โ€œI was worried.โ€ You say, voice muffled into his t-shirt.
โ€œI can tell,โ€ Jake is grinning. Whenever he thinks he may never smile again, you always tease it out of him.
โ€œDon't make fun of me,โ€ you say, lifting your head and frowning up at him
โ€œSorry.โ€ And he is. For a lot.
Jake gently grips your chin once more, angling your face towards his.
He wonders how he managed to resist for so long, impressed at his own control because how could he ever say no when you look at him like this.
(He knows he looks at you like this too. Seen pitying glances from Lua and heard sniggers from Sinu.)
Jake surges forward.
Captures your lips with his, feels your body turning stiff with surprise and then-
Feels you sag with relief, with happiness, with pleasure. Melting and leaning forward, seeking out more.
His free arm winds around your waist and pulls you close. Pressing the lengths of your body together and promising never to let go again.
.
.
During Jake's worst days, he didn't think he would have the privilege of growing old.
No family of his own. And though you were just friends, instead of a faceless partner, he would still imagine it was you by his side and the kids were the perfect mix of you and him.
Dark thoughts would turn to lamenting letting you slip through his fingers. Thinking about what could have been.
On his best days, he dreamt of growing old with you.
In time, Jake will come to know that fate will be kinder to him, his dreams will become a reality.
From the start you've always been the right person, at the right time, at the right place.
