Hopeless Romantic

Pairing: Youngjae x Reader Genre: Fluff Moodboard: by @parkhabits :)

A/N: This fluff is part of the @7ornevernet Fluffy Valentines Project. Please keep an eye out for other great fluffs (and some sinful smuts) from other members involved in this project!

It was February 13th, another year had come and gone with Youngjae by your side. It seems like just yesterday that you two had started dating, but you have been dating since right before his debut. It has been 3 years since you came to live in Korea. You knew living here would be the only way you could see Youngjae more often so it didn’t feel like much of a sacrifice. You came here looking to teach and teaching is what you did. It was fun teaching kids English but it was more fun to teach your child-like boyfriend new words. It was cute how his face lit up every time you taught him an unfamiliar word to add to his vocabulary. Just thinking about it brought a smile to your face.

You sighed while staring out the window instead of watching your class take their test. You knew you should be more attentive but all you could think about was how tomorrow was Valentine’s Day. What a dreaded holiday. It’s not that you particularly hated the holiday, you just hated surprises. However, surprises were Youngjae’s favorite pastime. What was he going to cook up this year? He is so unpredictable. One part you did enjoy was that everything he did was with good intentions and, occasionally, poorly planned.

One year, he tried to surprise you by decorating your apartment with red rose petals and hundreds (maybe even thousands) of tiny candles. You walked in and your eyes started watering and all you could see through the smoke was a frantic Youngjae running around with a fire extinguisher trying to put out a fire. Turns out those hundreds of tiny candles were too close to your curtains and… You know the rest. You wanted to be angry (and you were a little angry) but you couldn’t help but laugh at his exasperated yells and nervous laughs. He looked like an idiot, but he was your idiot nonetheless. When you asked him why he decided to do this, he said “That’s how I saw people do it in the movies.” with a sheepish grin.

Another year he took you on a stroll through the park at night and you both stared at the stars. At the end of the path was a little table set for two with candles and rose petals everywhere. It was chilly outside but the candles kept you warm. It was a night you would never forget because it was the first night he told you he loved you.

You couldn’t tell if this year would be a disaster year or a successful year. You dreaded the thought. You loved the outcome of a surprise but the anticipation practically killed you. “Sasaeng-nim…. SASAENG-NIM~!” You snapped out of your daydreams at once to see a tiny baby-faced boy in front of you waving his arms frantically.

“Ah, I’m sorry. What’s wrong?” you asked, smiling.

“The class is done with the test. Can we go home now?” he whined, giving you those irresistible puppy dog eyes.

You looked up at the clock, “AH, YES OF COURSE. Please leave your tests on my desk.  Stay safe!” you said, rushing to get all of your stuff together so you could lock up the classroom. How could you let the time slip by? You should have dismissed them 20 minutes ago. You were hoping the parents were understanding. You followed the group of kids out to make sure they went home with their parents or older siblings.

After everyone found a parent or a sibling and started walking home, you dug out your keys and headed to your car. You unlocked the door and slid into the seat when red reflects catch your eye. “Starting early this year…” You thought to yourself. Sprinkled all over the interior of your car was red heart-shaped confetti. You sighed, “He better be cleaning this up as part of my gift tomorrow.” You could already feel the anxiety of the surprise.

You get home to see your apartment was (thankfully) untouched. You changed into some comfortable sweatpants and crashed on your couch. You thought about ordering pizza tonight so you got up to find some menus. You searched for a good 10 minutes but couldn’t find them. You wandered into the kitchen where all the takeout menus were spread out onto the counter carefully.

You didn’t remember doing that. A chill went up your spine. Did someone break into your apartment? You dismissed the thought immediately and let out a giggle. “Sure, someone broke into my apartment to mess up my takeout menus. What an idiot.” You said, laughing. You rolled your eyes and went to go look at the menus. Next to the menus was a card with a big red heart on it.

You quickly picked up the card to read it.

“Dear Y/N, I’m sorry to tell you this last minute but I was scheduled for recording a show for the next two days. I hope you can live without me this Valentine’s Day. Don’t be sad. I am still here in your heart.

Love, Youngjae-Oppa”

You started to get teary eyed and forced a laugh at the last part. He’s always trying to say he’s your Oppa. Youngjae wasn’t going to be here for Valentine’s Day. You started getting a little emotional and tried to talk yourself into brushing it off.

“I don’t even like surprises… Why am I sad? I can just chill this year. It’s no big deal...” You mumbled, choking on some of your words through the tears.

He had also left some money out on the table. The bottom of the card indicated he wanted you to buy yourself a good dinner, but you found that you weren’t even hungry. Instead, you took a shower and went to bed early. You tried calling him but his phone was off. He must be on an airplane because he never has his phone off.

Your phone lit up as you started to close your eyes, a text from Jackson. He apologized for what happened with Youngjae and knew it would be hard so he offered to go on a friend date tomorrow. You said no but he kept pleading and begging until you said yes. You knew this was more for his benefit than yours as he didn’t like to be alone if he didn’t have to be. You agreed and then turned on do not disturb and went to bed.

You woke up the next morning, eyes puffy. You did have to teach today but school ended early for Valentine’s Day so it wouldn’t be so bad. You put on some light makeup and tried to look halfway decent. You finished the look by applying a sheer lip color. Your heart ached a little because this is the color Youngjae said looks best on you. You grabbed your bag and walked out of the apartment. The air was cool and fresh but the calming effect the weather had quickly vanished at the sound of loud yelling. “Y/N!!! Down here!!!” you heard a familiar voice yell. You looked down to see Jackson in a cute pastel blue sweater and some distressed jeans. You ran down the steps to meet him.

“Jackson, we can’t hang out just yet. I have a class to teach today,” you said, in a firm tone to let him know you were being serious right now.

“I know,” he said shrugging. “I just wanted to drive you to school since I’m your makeshift date today.” He beamed at you, his dimples showing.

You let out a long sigh. “Okay, Jackson. Let’s go.” Jackson turns around and jogs to the car so he could open the door for you. You let out a small laugh because he’s so corny. You thanked him and slid into the car. The interior was warm with comfortable leather seats and music was playing softly in the background. A GOT7 song, no less. Jackson gets into the driver's side and buckled up.

“Y/N, is your seatbelt on? Safety is important. Youngjae would be pretty upset if you got hurt and he hits me enough as is.” Jackson said, looking slightly annoyed at that last comment. You couldn’t help but smile as you buckled up. Jackson was so adorable and he truly felt like a big brother to you. Today would be nice.

You finally get to school and the entire time you were daydreaming about Youngjae. You couldn’t get him out of your head. You didn’t know why you were thinking so much about this. It’s not like Youngjae didn’t want to spend Valentine's Day with you. It wasn’t his choice. Jackson opened the passenger side door which forced you back into reality. “I’ll be back in a few hours when school ends, have a good day Y/N!” Jackson frantically waves at you causing you to laugh before walking into school.

You were early so you were surprised when the door to your classroom was unlocked and the lights were all on. You walk in to see heart decorations hanging from the ceiling and plastered all over the walls. It was almost obnoxious. It had Youngjae written all over it. You look towards the desks to realize your entire class was already here… Dressed in heart costumes. Bubbling laughs force their way out of you as your class shouted: “YOUNGJAE LOVES YOU!!!” The kids came running to you to give you small hugs and candies. This was easily, the cutest thing you had ever seen in your entire life.

After you collected yourself, the school day went on as normal. Once class ended, all the kids ran out of the class and you followed to make sure they were all getting home safely. Some of the parents were outside with cameras, taking pictures of the little red hearts running around. After the kids found their parents, you looked around. No sign of Jackson. He must have been confused about the time. You pull out your phone to see a text from Jackson.

“Sorry, Y/N. Something came up and I can’t make it. Don’t worry, I’m sending you a replacement! XOXO Jackson.”

You felt bummed out but what did Jackson mean by a replacement? Sure enough, a sleek black car drives up. A driver gets out of the car and opens the backseat door for you, indicating for you to get in the car. You were hesitant but thanked the man and got in. You slide into the seat right next to BamBam.

“BamBam? What are you doing here?” you asked, eyeing him skeptically.

“Didn’t Jackson tell you? I’m your date today!” BamBam said while smiling at you. “I know you miss Youngjae but I’ll try to keep your mind off him for the day.” you felt a little doubtful about that but appreciated the attempt.

The next few hours passed quickly. BamBam took you on his kind of date. You both went shopping where BamBam bought you an outfit as a Valentine’s Day gift. You expected nothing less from the fashion king himself. He bought you a burgundy lace dress with a new pair of black velvet heels and a cropped leather jacket. You admit, he had good tastes. He should have pursued a career in fashion because he definitely had the eye for it.

Before you knew it, the evening had arrived. BamBam took you back home because he insisted you change for dinner. He waited in the living room as you changed into the outfit he bought in the bedroom. When you came out into the living room, BamBam’s jaw dropped. “You look incredible Y/N. I wish Youngjae could see you right now.” His eyes glittered when he said that last part which made you feel a little uneasy. You felt your phone vibrate and it was a text from Youngjae who said he loved you and he was sorry for missing today.

You sent an “I love you too” back to him and put the phone back in your purse. You and BamBam went to an elegant restaurant for dinner. You just reached your seats when BamBam’s phone rang. He walked away to answer it. There was a small stage your eyes were drawn to and the lights came out as a beautiful woman came out to serenade lovers tonight. After a few minutes, BamBam came back with a solemn expression.

“Y/N… I’m sorry to do this to you… But I must leave. Today has been a lot of fun. Can I call you a car home?” BamBam looked like he felt guilty but it couldn’t be helped. This was the price you paid for having a boyfriend and friends who were idols.

“It’s fine. I’m going to stay here to eat dinner and listen to the music. She’s really good. I’ll find my way home. Thank you, Bam. Thank you and Jackson for everything today.” You said, feeling tears welling up in your eyes. You were truly grateful and you didn’t want BamBam to feel guilty about leaving.

“It’s our pleasure. We really think of you as a best friend or a sister. Eat well, it’s on me tonight.” Bam said, winking at you before he turned around and left. You watched him leave but your attention was back onto the stage as applause filled the room. You applauded too. The woman had a voice of an angel. You watched her step off stage to take a break but was soon replaced by a man. The lights weren’t fully raised so his face was shadowed. He was wearing a silky black tuxedo with a rose in the lapel. He started singing softly, his voice sounded familiar. He was singing you and Youngjae’s song.

The singer swept you away. You were under his spell. Every note plucked at your heart. Every verse was sung like it was written just for you. The singer started walking off the stage and headed directly towards you. He was still singing as he floated towards you. Not a single step weakened a note. Now in front of you, he gets down on one knee to serenade you with the last verse. Finally, the light shone brightly on his face. It was him. It was Youngjae.

He held your hand softly in his own as he carried out the last note. Before the crowd could applaud, he reached into his pocket to find a small black box. Every eye in the place was on you two but you didn’t notice. It was just you and him. This moment was a quiet haven for you and Youngjae. You could barely take your eyes off him. In this light, he looked like an angel and his eyes were trained on you and you alone. There was no other place he would rather be than where he is right now.

“Y/N… We have been together for a long time. You have stuck with me despite nights alone. Sometimes days. All I want is to be able to be able to love you for as long as we live. Will you do me the honor of marrying me? Please be my wife.”

You didn’t know what to say. Yes, obviously. You tried to choke down the urge to cry but couldn’t form any words to say. All you could do was smile through your tears and nod "yes" to answer his question. The entire room broke out into wild applause he stood up and hugged you tightly, spinning you around. He placed the ring on your finger and kissed your hand softly.

“Y/N, you’ve made me the happiest man in the world today. I love you.” Youngjae said before pulling you into a long kiss.

This was truly a day that you would never ever forget.
