i cant stop myself but this is also a little cringe + long so under the cut. be beholden to my madness
ok but theyre literally . parallels. joker being a phantom thief, yu being a detective. both have bonds with their respective detective princes but in Very differing ways, despite largely starting out the same (weird detective kid that started investigating them and following them around). also joker moving to the city from the countryside to live with a stranger who wont trust him around his daughter, vs yu moving to the country from the city to live with an estranged relative who constantly leaves his daughter with him for honestly too long. but theyre also just about the only people that can Truly understand each other on the same level, both being wildcards and leaders. they both know the pain and sacrifices and constant worry that comes with leading a team, both know the feeling of being arbitrarily decided to have some grand fate/destiny, both have seen the way that the justice system can be incompetent at best and actively malicious at worst. yu being a bit older and finished with his journey already, now lending an ear to the younger wildcard during his Incredibly Traumatic Journey. yu would also probably be very alarmed to hear about the state of the velvet room and the "guidance" that joker's been receiving, let alone when november comes around and hes proclaimed dead and comes out beaten and drugged. yu takes on a supportive and caring role in most of his relationships and joker's constant antics and spontaneity gives him both an outlet for his care and also a change of pace with the chaos it brings. they keep each other on their toes, but have a solidarity their teammates cant really understand or relate to. they both know what its like to have to leave everything behind when the journey is over and its time to go back to a "home" where you dont really belong. its having someone to come back to at night knowing theyll be there for you at your worst, and knowing theyll understand anything at all, even if its having fought and killed gods. also joker is a catboy and yu loves cats send tweet alexa post alexa send to mom
would you guys still love me if i started ranting about a rarepair for two characters that have only ever interacted in a crossover spinoff game once

Also involving TADC. This isn't some no name. This is Gooseworx. She has a long line of animation before this that was popular. And I mean it that it has better wider appeal.
I tried to show my friends Hazbin back when the pilot released at a party, and I got stopped by someone saying "that creator is a pedophile, transphobic, racist, homophobic, disgusting person" and I got threatened to be kicked out of the party after trying to show someone the pilot. Now, dear readers, I had not heard the allegations at that point because I just wasn't on those parts of the internet, and I only knew VIvzie from her Die Young and speed paints. I knew of Zoophobia, but it did not interest me much so didn't read it. I will be honest I was orginally really sceptical, since that was alot of accusations being told to me aggressivly. I asked the guy where he saw this and said he had never heard of the creator until that week on twitter. I honestly was a bit suspicious since this was during the time of hunicast and everything seemed great. I almost got kicked out of a party over it too, which is not a good way to get someone to be sympathetic to your opinion if they had heard nothing up to that point. This was sometime after the pilot when the main big spike in controversy had started to settle and alot of callout posts got deleted by this point, so I just shrugged my shoulders and moved on. I couldn't find the evidence after all the big deleting and broken links, since it might be obvious to us, but it can be rough figuring it out for a newbee to the controversy. Especially back then when things were overwhelmingly more positive. I also wasn't going to condem someone for something I couldn't even find evidence for. I never spoke of Hazbin amongst anybody for years, and it was my biggest secret, since I knew folks were weird about it because of some twitter post I couldn't even find anymore. Maybe I should have read the writing on the wall, but I don't blame myself for being skeptical when I had such a hard time finding the evidence in the beginning, and the few I did find were some of the more softball accusations that leaned toward more a slap of the wrist like how she could he kind of a brat on twitter or something (alot of people are, so not gonna drop her over that. That's like alot of internet personalities). Obviously I found the stuff later and now things make more sense.
Not to mention some of the Hazbin content is edgy without a purpose at times, so it takes some disclaimers when showing a friend. The Hazbin pilot was not the worse, but you wanna show a friend the Helluva Boss Pilot. Good f***ing luck. You'll get alot of silent judgement. I will give credit that actual Helluva Boss after the pilot is more sharing friendly a bit. I think I could shiw a friend some early HB epidsodes especially the harvest moon festival without too much incident. Hazbin is pretty okay without the controversy with some bad moments like the Jeffery dahmer joke and shit, but you can kind of get by. However, Viv's controversy kept the show back from being shared more. It also sometimes push the envolope but rather than in storytelling it was edgy humor and you would have to ask yourself "Do I want my friends to associate this with me?"
My main point though. Throughout this entire time we watched the shit out of goosworx and would even hang out having "viewing parties" aka an excuse to hang out and eat. I never have been nervous about showing their stuff. I don't think you have to be no controvercial or plain for that either. Look at little runmo. My friends and I were obsessed with the idea of a capitalist metephor and some of the theories we made with deeper themes. But it was never crude in an embarassing way so it spreads through word of mouth better. That's why Vivzie has a fandom more than viewers now. You gotta already have bought in to watch it.
I'd say that at the end of the day, the adult show that you can show your friends, kids, and mother is going to have an easier time finding a bigger audience than the one that opens with the r-word...but Family Guy and South Park.
Vivzie's shows have several hurdles in place just by virtue of being an extremely crude animated show. And then, after all those, they've got to overcome Vivzie.

Warren with a platonic relationship with reader who tends to tease him (like bringing up embarrassing moments) in a annoying older sibling way without any real malice. (Bonus if Warren knows some embarrassing moments about the reader and teases them back.)
Thanks Anon for the request, hope you like it <3
Warren x Reader (Platonic)
WARNINGS: Nothing this time
Tumblr media
-You've known Warren since you were little
-Your parents were friends, so you basically grew up together, as if you were brothers
-You are older than he and these makes you remember a lot of embarrassing things he did when he was young
-You used this to your advantage to tease him
-Once you followed him when he was supposed to teach the trio and in the middle of his lesson you said, "Hey Warren, if you're an eagle why don't you show us how you fly?"
- "I haven't my wings yet, so I can't fly" he replied.
-That's what you wanted him to say, so you said, "That's not what you told me when you tried to fly by jumping off a low wall and falling face to the ground ."
-You caused a little laughter and saw Warren blush and shout at you, "I WAS 10 YEARS OLD, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT I NEED WINGS TO FLY!!!"
-You could tell Warren was a little hurt, so you treated him to a restaurant-style meal to make it up to him.
-Sometimes you like to remind him that he's not an eagle just to annoy him, and the conversations are like:
- "Hey Warren, you know you're not an eagle" you say.
- "Yes I am" he replies to you.
- "No, you're a Worm" you say again
- "Eagle" he replied.
- "Worm" you counter.
-And you continue like this until one of the two gets tired, generally it's you since because Warren is really determined to consider himself an eagle
-You have an embarassing picture of him when he was in elementary school and sometimes, when you remember that this picture existence, you send it to Warren without saying anything just to annoy him
-Once you left your phone unattended and he deleted it from the gallery, fortunately you managed to retrieve it and once you got home you spammed it to him in your chat 
-Doing a calculation you must have sent it to him about 100 times that night; Warren had to beg you to stop
-Plus when you two were little you were taller then Warren and now.....You're still taller than him, that's why you enjoy teasing him about it
- "Warren, where are you? I can't see you!" you say while Warren, visibly irritated, stands a few centimeters below you
-Sometimes you rest your elbow on his head just because you know he doesn't want you to.
-There is a reminder....Warren might get his revenge and sometimes he does.
-In fact, he also knows some embarrassing things about you.
-For example, one night you were teasing him a little, as usual....
- "Warren, do you remember that time you wet your pants twice in one day," you said.
- "At least I didn't do that during the school play," he replied.
-You pretended to feel offended about it only to make him feel bad, and you do it
-Warren apologized 10 minutes later almost in tears for touching your 'sensitive moment'
-You felt guilty and then you apologized too.
-Sometimes when you're teasing him and he's had enough he starts saying "Okay, Stop!" and then continues with phrases like "Real friends don't say/do these things," just because he knows it annoys you
-But other than that you love each other.
-You're best friends...You consider yourselves almost brothers
-You two has a set of nicknames for each other that can be either cute or mean
-You know everything about each other...And in sometimes this can seem a little 'creepy'
-When one of you is feeling sick or down, the other will do his best to make him feel better
-Once you got sick and Warren, in order to take care of you, got sick too.
-You are obliged to listen to his podcast, but if you don't want to, that's okay.....Don't worry about poor Warren's feelings
-Please listen that podcast
-You spend a lot of time together, which is why some people think you are a couple
-Both of you deny it by saying, "Ew no, he's like a brother to me" or something like that
-Even though you tease each other you two have a great relationship of friendship and brotherhood and neither of you imagine your life without the other

So, I got into the Fandom and I absolutely love it here.
As far as I'm aware the people here are also really nice and I enjoy this Fandom because it feels really healthy so let's try to keep it that way.
In this account I will write some Wally x Reader (Headcanons or a short/long fic with one chapter, if I notice it needs more than 3 chapters I will move it to AO3) and I accept requests but NSFW IS NOT ALLOWED as the creator of Welcome Home doesn't feel comfortable with that.
Before making this account I went to look what would make the creator uncomfortable and even asked Reddit to be even more sure that I got things right.
The creator does not mind OC x Character and didn't say anything against Character x Reader (platonic or romantic) this mean that at least for now I can write about it but of course if the creator later share Online that they feel uncomfortable with x Reader or anything else that maybe I wrote (obviously generally speaking since I doubt they would actually see my account and of course I wouldn't send them stuff that I wrote both because they asked people not to do that as to not influence their decisions for the story and also because I would genuinely feel embarassed) I won't have any issues with deleting them as soon as I see that the creator said that.
While the NSFW is something that is not allowed here there will still be some sensitive topics warnings and other warnings of creepy/psychological stuff etc. so be careful and be sure to check for any warning before reading the story.
I also checked that and I think the creator said that it was also fine to do this as long as people properly warned others about how it might happen to find triggering or disturbing stuff.
Still even if I will do some sensitive topics and horror/psychological stories most of the Headcanons/Fanfictions are still going to be about the sweet and fluff or hurt/comfort side of the relationship (platonic or romantic) since I actually enjoy write that more despite I love dark and creepy stuff, for example small gesture to show how much you care for someone even if for someone else it might seem dumb or nothing special (example, if my partner share something I like to eat with me I would be happy with that, if they kiss me on the cheek or hand even if old style I would be happy with that, small and simple things like this to make it short) are the absolute best in my opinion and it's the sweetest thing ever.
It will make more sense once I actually start writing.
Also a last warning, this kinda have to do with myself and psychological stuff so if you don't feel comfortable with the argument you don't have to read.
I have ADHD.
As many of you are probably aware some people with ADHD gets easily distracted and that is something that sadly happens to me a lot, so please keep that in mind and not to worry if it takes a long time for something to come out.
I'll try my best to not take too long with whatever I'm writing but I think it's better to put a warning because even for something really short it could take me at least a month and I don't want to make people hope for something and then wait for who knows how long without a warning so I'll say it right now.
Depending on what I have to write and if I feel motivated enough I might write it fast enough but if not it might take a long time, there's no guaranteed so I'll say it right now.
Also I want to make clear that this Tumblr is exclusively for Non-binary and Male readers (Trans or Cis) since there aren't a lot of those.
In the future I might write for more characters as well but some of them might end up being only platonic depending on how I feel about them.
For example I prefer a bit more Frank and Eddie as a couple so they might not be someone I will write romantically with the Reader but I'm still not sure, that was just a example for now.
In the future I might also make some kind of "Ask Wally" where I pretend to be the character but remember that it's obviously not Canon and if I will do it it's just for fun and it's just another way to share some Headcanons.
If anyone have any question feel free to ask, please remember to be respectful.
Requests are open.

Watched: Kamen Rider Faiz Paradise Regained
"What is the answer?" "The answer... is to keep asking that question." "Are you trying to play it off?" "I am"
A shallow, awkward, pointless, meaningless, weightless movie, which raises the question if they even still knew what Faiz was as they made it. (namely, Faiz itself fell off halfway through, but instead of trying to save face after that, it only sunk itself deeper)
None of the characters in this movie have a role, but let's start by talking about Kamen Rider Muse. At first her "don't look, that's so embarassing" gimmick made no sense to me, but after a while I figured it was meant to be an Eve imagery, the shame of being naked, and later she regains Paradise, no longer feeling shame of baring herself. Which makes absolutely no sense in multiple layers. First and foremost, she isn't naked, she isn't getting naked, she's going from dressed to armored. To make this symbolism? metaphor? work, what needed to be done was either the henshin actually ripping her clothes off, or the inverse, she feels shame of being untransformed. She arrives on the battlefield transformed, and at the end of battle de-transforms and runs away embarassed because she wants not to be seen as anything other than KR Muse. And once she regains her Paradise, she doesn't run away or shows her face without thinking anything of it. And why did she regain Paradise even? Offering Mari to Smartbrain made her obtain "God's forgiveness"? It might be pointless to even try to think about it, as I think most of this movie's beats were made on a whim, not with a purpose.
Paradise Lost, while still barebones, constructed a barely passable Adam in Takumi, but Paradise Regained had a void. He says so many empty lines that try to sound deep or philosophical that one would think he is pre-Loss Adam though, as there's not a drop of knowledge in him. Is Takumi being a husk of his former self, not the guardian of dreams or a fighter with any reason, meant to represent Adam's ignorance pre-loss? Which is a complete denial of his story in the show, and thus makes the fact this is a sequel pointless? And if you think about it, Orphenochs are a new humankind, yes, but there's so many of them and they reproduce by killing humans, why are we making Takumi an Adam and Muse/Mari his Eves? (Paradise Lost used the Adam/Eve images very well, its final scene being truly worth of the title) Muse has no backstory, no reason to her love for Takumi, she simply enters the story, says she loves him and dies. If that's the use for the character, it could simply be written so: She was created to be his partner, being conditioned to be obsessed with him. Then in reality she was just there to watch him not step out of line and deal with it accordingly if he ever showed signs of no longer wanting to be SB's dog, but when it happens, she's grown too affectionate to eliminate him and lets him go. Not anything ground breaking or amazing, but at least would make her story have a drop of sense, there'd be some writing to it, not just hollow loose statements disguised as a character.
Onto the other Eve, why is Mari suddenly Takumi's love interest? What was great about Faiz (to me) was that they never had anything going on. Takumi protected her, meddled a little with her love affairs, but was never part of it himself. Why do they have Orphnoch sex? Whose fetish was it to have two monster suits making out? SHOW YOURSELF Takumi isn't the guardian of dreams, is in love with Mari, doesn't have a single thought in his mind, did someone write this movie after watching one episode of Faiz or reading a series summary? Also I hate how they turn letting someone blow his food into a love language, feels even worse now that he's this old. 50yo man gets his gf to blow his food because he's too sensitive DELETE THIS MOVIE NOW ⚡️⚡️⚡️ I SAY IT WITH 100% 1000%
EXTRAS
oh kusaka is in this movie too but it's so stupid and forced that it's obvious they just wanted to sell a new Kaixa toy and have some "i clapped because i know that" when Kusaka smiles funny. He has no arc no role and no point in this movie, an insult to all Kusaka stands for (nothing but respect for my main villain that happens to be a kamen rider). Writing room must hate him, because neither movies or show bothered to treat him with respect when he carries the show. I don't think I need to say it, but the "twist" is braindead. No excuses.
The new characters are even more worthless and pointless than him, doing nothing for the story and being ugly suits. My favorite thing about Faiz was how every orphnoch was beautifully designed and looked great, that original designer probably wasn't available or might not be alive anymore, so they hired someone who does modern suits and we got those awfully ugly orphnochs.
RATING
0.5/10 because I liked listening to Justifaiz, but I think it should have played when he transformed using the original Faiz Gear, not a few minutes later when the final battle starts.

2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 35.777 sksks, it's not much but it's something! i'm still working on a few things (bucky stuff and matt stuff) so we might see an increase soon!
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos? okay so i'll do the ao3 version, but like on tumblr there's a different top 5?? so interesting!! these are all bucky fics, except for the last one - thats a spencer reid fic!
loving dawn as certainty of sunrise
kill with kindness
wasteland, baby!
black holes
liability
more under the cut bc i don't wanna clog the dash
5. Do you respond to comments, why or why not? yes!!! omg i love responding to comments! i honestly don't get many, but the ones i do get warm my heart so much!! its just so nice to see someone who read your stuff give a short comment why they liked it and idk its so nice to hear and everyone who has ever commented has my heart!!
6. What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
i think homesick at space camp? that is just angst from beginning to end lmao! but i wrote a fluffy part two to it, so i don't know if it counts, but yeah, that one!
7. Do you write crossovers? If so, what’s the craziest one you’ve ever written?
ooh, i actually haven't and i haven't even thought about that! maybe one day, but i feel like my writing skills aren't good enough yet to write more than one complex character in a fic with like... a good plot lmao.
8. Have you ever received hate on a fic?
not yet! my stuff also isn't good enough to receive hate so thats like a plus too lmao we love the duality
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
i tried to write smut once. it was a part two to the pool tables have turned. i had horny thots that night. i published it. then i went to bed. i woke up 8 hours later and it had decent exposure? i reread it. i cringed. and then i deleted it. yes, that was the saga of me writing smut, deleting it and thinking i should never do it again, haha! so atm i don't write explicit smut, but i do like some allusions to it, hehe.
10. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

13. What are your thoughts about writing dialogue in another language in a fic?
depends on the execution honestly! i like little words here and there, sometimes a full sentence if i can deduce whatever is said through context, but when there's full on another language with translations at the end of a fic, i'm less inclined to read it! (most of the time i can understand what is said though! bless me and my obsession with languages!)
13. What was the first fandom you wrote for?
okay. this is hard. i am a little embarassed. so i wrote for 1D first BUT i was never a fan? i was a little capitalist back in my wattpad days and i saw those stories got way more likes and reads than original work? so i was like, lemme use these men to my advantage. i also was too lazy to make a complex character of my own. so yes, 1D, then 5SOS.
14. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?
hmmm, difficult! black holes is one i adore, just because i put so much of myself in it. but then i also love my short matt fics, and i also really like this one from fatws... so i think those! they're also so different so egjzrgr

Lookalike
Request: Can you do another cone song? Maybe lookalike or maniac? [Can you do it like harry dates a lookalike of you?]
A/N: I know this is way later than I said, I honestly wrote four version of this and deleted them before settling on this one and it’s still not the best. I’m just posting it so I can move on to my other ideas. I hope you enjoy it anyway! Soz it ends kinda on a cliffhanger, I didn’t want to make it super long. It already feels really long.
———————————
It was a humid summer evening, not the kind of evening you wanted to step out in. But here I was, in line with my best friend Jules who’d somehow gotten word of this pop-up club that was recently getting more popular with social media. The location would be dropped in code somewhere online for a limited time and then the rest was just word of mouth. Jules worked as a makeup artist so she usually knew what the “in crowd” was doing. This time, she knew where the club was going to be.
Myself, I was just a recent masters-graduate with low job prospects and big time loans. Always tired, single, and at the moment, very, very sweaty. The humidity was really damaging the effort I’d put in for this night out.
“Do you think we’ll spot Ed Sheeran?” Jules asks, her one true desire. “Then I can finally tell him how much he means to me.”
“Don’t know if this is Ed’s scene,” I tease her. “He seems more like a laid-back pub sort of guy.”
“You’re so right,” she still peers around us. “You hoping to see any celebs here? This one’s the biggest so far I’ve heard.”
His face pops into my head but I slam my guard down. “I’ll be lucky just to find a cute guy.”
“Two of you?” The bouncer asks Jules as we make our way to the front-she looked twelve, and we finally head inside. We’d stepped into a storybook.
Vines and tiny lights covered the ceiling and floors, rays of green and pink lights flash around us and the ground was littered with flower petals.
“Oh my god the seats are trees,” Jules whispers in my ear. This was insane.
“They probably have themed drinks,” I grab Jules’ hand and pull her to where I see the bar. We loved a good themed drink.
“This is amazing,” Jules shouts. “I think I just saw Adele!”
On a second look, we decide it was Adele’s doppleganger but we’re soon preoccupied by drinks. I order a Cosmic Boom and take another look around the open space. It was getting pretty full, people dancing but a lot of people hanging about talking.
Jules and I take our drinks to the dancefloor and enjoy ourselves. This was new all over-enjoying myself. I’d spent the last five months working hard at school, job searching, and then a bit of travel. But I was so busy convincing myself that if I worked hard enough I’d forget about the awful year I’d had. Would forget about Harry and the way he left me.
Nobody would believe it, but Harry Styles was my boyfriend for a solid year. We’d met when I was visiting Jules on set of some talk show. He’d been there, after his interview, and mistakened me for backstage crew. He asked me to show him where his room was. He’d been so embarassed when I told him I didn’t work there, but I volunteered to help him find it anyway. I was just killing time ‘til Jules was done.
We had gotten lost and ended up in this storage space where it was clear stage props were stored. We’d found half a car-cut clear through the middle and ended up sitting inside and talking. It was weird, just an hour before that, Harry Styles was this iconic and unattainable person who lived in the fantasy part of my brain. Sitting in the semi-dark with him, in a half-car, and being only a foot away, he was just another person. A regular bloke who was gorgeous, talking to me about his recent mother’s day disaster while I laughed and told him about something similar that had happened when I was a child.
It was quite silly to think we were going to leave that room the same way we walked into it.
He’d leaned in once quiet had settled down around us, both of us just watching the other, afraid that speaking would ruin the moment. His finger had ghosted my face, hesitating, asking me without really asking me. I’d leaned in the rest of the way to tell him it was okay. That’s when I knew I was a goner.
He was gentle with me, but also entirely self assured, leading the way. I couldn’t keep track of his lips or his hands but every part of my body was alive and I lived entirely in the moment for him.
He’d called me later that night asking if I wanted to have dinner at his place. We knew we had something good going. So we kept at it.
Until five months ago.
“Y/N?” Jules says in my ear. I snap out of my memories and look to where she’s pointing. And then back to her ecstatic face. There, sitting near the DJ was actually Ed Sheeran.
“Jules,” I say, lost for words. We had to do this now. We had to approach him, now or never.
“I can’t,” she says close to me. “I’m going to vom right now.”
“Come on!” I grab her and try to move her stiff body one step at a time until we’re only a couple feet away. That’s when the group he’s talking to shifts and I see Harry. Harry with a girl on his arm. My Harry.
“What’s wrong?” Jules halts as my own body goes rigid. “Don’t tell me you’ve got nerves now...oh hey isn’t that Harry?”
“Yeah...” my mouth was dry and I couldn’t believe it. He was here, I really didn’t think I’d see him ever again.
“I need to talk to you,” Harry says as I pour my morning coffee. It was the first week of my final semester so I was actually in a good mood, optimistic before all the deadlines hit. I never saw it coming.
“What’s up?” i was so innocent, drinking my coffee with no idea what else was brewing.
He takes the coffee cup from my hands and puts it down, gathering my hands in his. I notice his hands are slightly clammy, that was the first red flag.
“What’s wrong?” I ask again, the anxiety spiking up.
“No-nothing. I was just thinking about how I have to on tour for the next year. You’ve still got school to finish and a great big career ahead of you. I feel like I’m just going to hold you back and I-“
“That’s silly,” I interrupt. “You’d never...”
“I might. I’ll have tour and you’ll have school-“
“Hold on. Are you just trying to say...is it you who’ll hold me back or me who’s going to hold you back?” I asked, confused. How would Harry ever hold me back? I offered to go on legs of his tour with him when I could. I could do my work on the road. Nobody was going to hold anybody back
Harry opens his mouth to explain but I don’t let him get a word in. How dare he try to twist the situation. He should just say what he felt!
“Is that really it? I’m just a regular girl-next-door who’s run out of her luck with the famous superstar? She could never understand your fame, you could never want her in the public’s eye? Is that it? You’re too good for me? You can’t even think about going public with our rel-“
“Trust me you don’t want tha-“
“Don’t tell me what I want!” The coffee had curdled in my stomach and I felt like dry-heaving but I hold it together. I was so in love with this man, to think about living without him was painful beyond comprehension. But all he saw me as was deadweight. The realisation is crushing. “Just leave Harry. Just bloody leave then, I don’t want to see you! After all we had together I’m just deadweight to you? I’m going to hold you back? And yoy can’t eve be a man and say what you really want!”
He’d ruffled his hair, given some explanation, tried to tell me he loved me but I was somewhere else. My life felt like it was falling apart, and I had a lab to teach in a few hours. He was so bloody selfish. I decided I hated him.
“-show him who cares. Go right up and pretend you don’t even know who he is...” I wasn’t sure how long Jules was talking but she was right. I didn’t care about him. This was my night out.
Jules walks ahead and uses her charm to wriggle her way into the small conversation, inserting me right beside her. She knew the business, taking her time to talk to Ed Sheeran so as not to overwhelm him. In the meantime, my eyes catch Harry’s, and it’s like a movie line. Time slows down, I hear the breath I take and see the surprise register on his face. But I let my eyes skim past his, he meant nothing to me. Instead, they land on his girlfriend and that’s where I fight to hide the surprise.
There’s these photos I see online sometimes, you take a picture and draw it in your own style. His new girlfriend was kind of like that. She looked just like me, except slightly off. More like how I looked last year. Since then, I’d grown out my hair and let its natural colour grow in. But I nudge Jules and use my hair as a curtain, trying to tell her to look. She speaks my language so she sees right away and her eyes widen. She mouths oh my god.
I watch from the corner of my eye while pretending to be engaged by Jules introducing what she does to Ed Sheeran. Harry says something to his girl and she laughs. Jesus, even her smile was reminiscent of mine. I try not to stare, using my drink as a distraction but some small part of me-most of me is upset-but a small part of me feels like I’d won. Harry had told me I wasn’t good enough for him, and then gone out to find someone who looked just like me. That gives me the confidence I need to finally look him in the eye. It’s like he was tracking my moves because he looks at me too. He smiles and I just raise my eyebrows.
“Y/N,” he says in that deep silky voice of his. It carries across despite the noise. My heart squeezes.
“Harry,” I say. I let my eyes slide to his girlfriend and she raises a hand.
“Hi, I’m Katy.”
“Hi,” I smile, she’d done nothing wrong except look like me I guess. She looks up at Harry, waiting for him to introduce us. Ugh.
“And this is Y/N, she’s my best friend but she always says she never understands my absolute obsession with your music.” Jules from the right of me catches my attention. She was introducing me to Ed Sheeran-and exposing me.
“Okay. Ouch.” I give her a look which makes her laugh and shake Ed’s hand. Oh my god. “I’m definitely a fan, just not as big as Jules.”
“She’s more of an indie rock girl,” Harry’s deep voice comes from behind me and I’m surprised to find him standing right behind me.
Jules raises her eyebrow at him, glances at me while Harry and Ed talk before interjecting and resuming her conversation.
“I’d say I’m more of a pop girl.” I turn to Harry. I look for his girlfriend but she’d disappeared.
“But that’s not your guilty pleasure,” Harry says and I avoid the tingle in my stomach as he says it. “And Kat’s gone off with her friend, they saw Adele they want to get a picture.” I don’t bother to say it wasn’t Adele. “How’s it going with you?”
He has to lean in close to be heard and I find myself drawing closer to his orbit. I had to be careful here. I remind myself that I hated him.
“Same old,” I say. “I’ve graduated, now looking for full time work. Travelled a bit too.”
“You finally see those tourist traps you wanted to?”
I forgot how intimately Harry knew me, I wanted to forget how much history we shared. But it’s so painfully obvious now that that would be impossible. Even holding onto my hate was proving slippery.
“The Great Pyramids were better than the Eiffel Tower,” I reference an old conversation we’d had. “So I was right.”
This makes Harry laugh and the club narrows down to just us as he steps to the side with me to a quieter area.
We stand in silence for a moment, just watching each other, memorizing the details about each that time had blurred. Like the laugh lines around his eyes, or the depth to his eyes. It feels like he’s cheating with me, with how fiery and focused his gaze is on me. The unspoken words in his eyes.
“Harry I-“ I raise my hand to tell him I should go, I didn’t want anything to happen we would regret. But he takes my hand and puts it to his warm chest. The words leave my mouth as I look at him again. Really look at him. From afar he looked like he was doing better than he ever was but up close I notice the tired bags and the lost look in his eyes. It was the same one I saw in my own after we’d broken up.
This was ridiculous, I tell myself. He left me, I shouldn’t feel bad for him. I’d won. But I want to ask him about Katy, when he looked in her eyes, did he think of mine? And when he looked at her smile, did I cross his mind? I already knew that he saw me instead ‘cause she looks a lot like I did back then. I wanted to ask him and tell him not to lie.
“How are you doing?” I finally break and ask even though I want to ask, is she just a lookalike?
He looks away, his hand letting go of mine. His fake smile is back on his face as he performs for me once again. “Not too bad. I’ve got a break from tour right now so just layin’ low.”
I look around and point to the club around us. “Laying low?”
“Yeah,” Harry laughs at being caught. “My girlf-Katy-she really wanted to come out to one of these with her girlfriends. She convinced me to come along.”
I didn’t know what to say to that so I just smile. My phone buzzed and I see a text from Jules. I look for her in the crowd and she’s staring at me with a raised eyebrow. I give her the everything is okay smile and she looks relieved.
“Jules is overprotective as usual,” Harry notices. What did he expect, I think, when he’s the selfish arse who broke my heart. The small flame of anger reignites as I watch Jules smile at me with caring eyes.
“She just wanted me to hook up with a cute guy tonight,” I say to Harry. “Spending it with my ex kind of kills the vibe.”
There, I’d addressed the elephant in the room. And just as I suspected, Harry gets uncomfortable.
“So I take it you’ve not got a boyfriend?”
“Nope,” I cross my arms. “Was busy travelling...” and feeling depressed at home I don’t add.
“Right,” Harry straightens up. “Well don’t let me keep you Y/N. Sorry to...”
I look up at him, his pause. His apology seems to be about something bigger than keeping me from the rest of the club. But I don’t mention it. I don’t push it. Yes, I wanted to stay here in this corner of the club with him but I don’t want to make it a big deal. I give him a squeeze on the arm to tell him it was alright. He paints a smile on and I walk away even though I want to just stay.
I walk to Jules, tell her I’d get another drink for us. At the bar, waiting for our drinks, I notice Harry with Katy again, they’re dancing with her friends, she laughs, he pulls her closer.
That was us not long ago, before that morning chat. God. I really did hope, in his head, he saw me instead. Cause...he’d been in mine every day since then. I admit it, some nights, no almost every night...I still though about him. I tried to hide it, I did an amazing job at hiding it, but I couldn’t erase him from my mind. The thought almost makes me laugh as I get my drinks...maybe I just needed to find a lookalike.

Bring It On Home..
Tumblr media
Summary: The battle against Thanos is over, and the Avengers are the winners. Those gone for the past five years have returned home, including Bucky. But what changes have taken place in the reader's life since she lost him, and can things go back to the way they were? Or do they have to find a new normal?
Pairings: Bucky Barnes x fem!enhanced! Reader
(Reader is able to see bits and pieces of the future, can understand all languages, and process information at an abnormal pace, as well as being a super soldier)
Warnings: mild angst, fluff, maybe a hint of smut (blink and you'll miss it) mentions of the events of Avengers: Endgame, strong language
*************************************************
She knew it would happen before it did. Her damnable knack for seeing shards of the future let her know that Tony Stark would get the stones, and what’s more, sacrifice his life for both friends and people he had never met, but there were so many screams on the battlefield that day, when her agonized cry escaped her as she rammed her knee into the groin and her knife into the jugular of one of Thanos’s goons (the same one who nearly killed her five years ago, actually) no one heard.
She’ll carry that secret to her grave. Goodness knows Pepper doesn’t need the worry of wondering if it somehow could’ve been avoided (it couldn’t have), if she somehow could have saved him (it wasn’t possible). She briefly thinks about telling Steve once the dust settles, but then she catches sight of a familiar flash of silver, and what’s more, the man in black attached to it.
She’s not sure if he’s seen her before she takes off, running the fastest she ever has, but there’s no way he could miss the sound of her footfalls once she’s nearly on top of him, and he manages to catch her when she nearly topples over from stopping so abruptly in front of him. He looks the same as last time she saw him, her Bucky, but she’s sure she looks much different. Her mind rapidly runs through everything she could say to him, everything she should let him know, but what comes out is five simple words:
“You came back to me.”
He doesn’t get the chance to reply before heart-wrenching sobs echo from the woman in the Iron Man suit, who nearly keels over next to her dead husband. She’s not sure who reaches Pepper first, her, Steve, or Rhodey, but as Rhodes pulls her up to lean against him and Steve shields them from prying eyes, she’s the one to remove the helmet from Pepper’s head and dab at the tears.
She doesn’t see him again except for briefly passing in coridors for several days after that. Steve’s patching up holes in what’s left of their forces, explaining that they’ve been gone for five years, and here’s how they were brought back. Rhodey’s putting out publicity fires. Pepper doesn’t have the huge circle of friends she enjoyed in the days before she and Tony ran off together to start a family, and although they don’t know each other well, she stays with the grieving widow and along with Happy and Peter, entertains Morgan.
Since she hates to leave Pepper for more than an hour at a time, remembering her own grief years earlier, Steve has taken to dropping off fresh clothes for her every day and taking what needs to be washed home with him. That’s who she’s expecting when there’s a knock on the door of the room she’s been staying in for the past week and a half.
That is, until the door opens and her heart skips a beat. It’s him.
He offers her a smile, but it’s nervous.
“Hey. Steve said he was gonna stop by and drop these off for you, but I was in the neighborhood, so I thought-” Stopping short, he holds out the brown paper bag she assumes has the sweater she asked for and the workout wear.
There’s so many things she wants to say to him. So many things he needs to know. That she missed him so much she thought cutting out her heart would be less painful. That not a day has gone by when she hasn’t woken up, expecting to see a good morning text from “Barnes” as he’s still listed in her phone. That she hasn’t deleted any of the voicemails he sent her. That she’s kept moving forward because she had to, but it felt like she was hollow, just a shell of herself.
Instead, she ignores all logic and reserve, and goes with her gut instinct; wrapping one arm around his neck, grabbing a handful of hair to bring him down to her level, and kissing him the way she used to, like no time has passed and no changes have occurred. It’s only when a “thunk” from the bag hitting the floor reaches her ears that she realizes what she’s done or has a moment of doubt. But then, he’s pulled her closer, and she’s not the only one going for broke.
She manages to break away long enough to gasp out,
“Sorry. Is this-”
“This is okay. Yeah. This is good.”
That’s all she needs to hear before dragging him into the room with her and kicking the door closed.
___________________________________________________________________________________
This is stupid. It’s the thought at the forefront of Bucky’s mind. They dated for three years, and he even worked up the courage to ask her if she’d marry him before Thanos attacked. There’s absolutely no reason to be nervous over a simple dinner date. It’s stupid. But he is nervous. Sure, for him, it’s been a grand total of two weeks since the battle where he turned to dust, but for her, it’s been a long five years. Who knows what’s happened in that time?
All of those concerns are put on pause as he catches sigh of her stepping through the diner doors. At the time, when he changed into one of Steve’s nicer button downs, blazers, and a pair of slacks (he’s pretty sure all of his clothes are still in Wakanda… or possibly thrown out by now, since it is five years later), he felt stupid, but now… yeah, he’s still underdressed. Of course, that would be true if she turned up wearing a potato sack, because it’s her, and to his mind (which he can’t guarantee is objective, but dammit, he can’t be far off) she’s the most beautiful creature to ever walk the face of this earth.
He’s barely stood up from the booth (no nicer places were available since literally everyone is trying to catch up with long-missing loved ones, and besides, he’s fairly certain they don’t take Wakandan currency in New York) before she catches sight of him, and that smile that could rival the sun peeks out again as she makes her way over. Does he hug her? Does he shake her hand? What’s the protocol when you’re meeting up with the woman who may or may not still be your fiancee for the first time in five years for her, and a few weeks for you? Who you’re sure as hell, absolutely, head over heels in love with, but who knows if she still feels the same way?
He doesn’t get to do either because she pecks his cheek, and before he can recover, slides into her side of the booth.
“You clean up just as nice as I remember.” He needs to say something in response. Words. He knows plenty of them. It’s just the using them that’s the problem.
“You too.” Did part of his brain disappear in the dusting and not come back properly? Is that why he’s completely tongue tied around her?
The situation definitely doesn’t improve when a waitress comes over to take their order and, as they fold up their menus and hand them over, he gets a good look at her left hand. Oh.
“Hey-” He doesn’t realize he’s been just staring until she reaches across the table and lightly grasps his arm. “-you alright there, Buck? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” Maybe he has. Maybe he’s hallucinating. Or maybe-
“You kept it on.” She looks confused for a moment, and then a flush rises to her cheeks.
“Of course I did.” Her eyes lower to study the table, and her hand drops away. “Of course.”
“For five years.” Why is he saying this? Can’t he just accept anything at face value?
“Yes, um-” She clears her throat nervously. “-it wasn’t on my finger the entire time. I had a scare around four months in where I thought I’d lost it, and after that, I wore it on a chain around my neck, but yes. I kept it on.”
He wants to tell her how amazing that is, how he’s floored that it meant that much to her, he meant that much to her. But again, she’s the one to speak before he can.
“You can have it back. That is, if you’d rather…” She stumbles over her words, then sighs. “If you’d rather it not mean what it used to mean anymore.” Wait- “I know it’s only been a little while for you, but it’s been five years for me. I’ve gotten older, and I’m rough around the edges in places I didn’t used to be. Plus, I’ve changed a lot, and you might not to be tied down to who I am now-
“Keep it.” Her mouth falls open at the interruption, but she quickly snaps it shut. “That is, if you still want it to mean what it used to mean.”
She frowns slightly.
“I do. You wouldn’t believe how much… it’s only… are you sure?” Of course he’s sure. “If you wanted to take some time to think about it, or if you didn’t want to try at all, I’d understand. No hard feelings.” She laughs sadly. “I mean, who knows? You may not even like me anymore.”
That’s what finally pushes him past embarassment, past any worry about making her uncomfortable. Damn being eloquent. He just needs to say it.
“I don’t need time. I’d already thought about it when I gave the ring to you in the first place.” This time, he’s the one reaching across the table, taking her hand in his. “Doll, I knew we were both gonna change eventually. That’s just what happens as time passes. And my mind’s still made up that I’m gonna love each person you change into. I just wish…” Should he say this? Now or never. “… I wish I’d been there so we could’ve changed together.” She doesn’t look convinced. Alright, time to make things a little ridiculous.
“Are you still the girl who uses the humane mouse traps, has terrible taste in music, and drinks tea because coffee gives her the jitters?”
“Yes and no.” That’s not the answer he was expecting, but at least she’s smiling now. “I still use the no-kill traps, my taste in music was never terrible, excuse you, but coffee doesn’t give me the jitters since the super serum.”
“The what?!”
“Oh, right. You missed that part.”
It’s a long explanation, during which he has to almost completely shut down so he won’t show how much it’s affecting him, hearing how close she came to death that day, but by the end he’s even more certain of his decision.
“Then it’s just as I thought. You may have changed here and there, but at the core, you’re the same girl I fell for in Romania. And I’m still sure I want to marry her.”
Before she can stop it, a tear runs down her cheek. As she wipes it away, she asks,
“Really?”
“Really.” He nods. “But hey, from the sound of it, you’re a bad-ass now. You sure you want to marry an old man?” It works, and she laughs.
“Well, every bad-ass needs a sidekick, and you’ve got the credentials.”
He’s not sure why he asks, because it doesn’t matter, he wouldn’t blame her if there was someone else, but he needs to know just to put it to rest in his own mind.
“What, there weren’t any other applicants?”
“Nope. I held the position open for you.” He’s never been more excited to start a job in his entire life.
___________________________________________________________________________________
“Did you know it was going to happen?” They’re in the back of one of Stark’s (or rather, Pepper’s) SUVs on the way home from Tony’s memorial service. The only major difference from the trip down is that Steve’s gone. He’s gone. Traveled back in time. She doesn’t know for certain, but she’s pretty sure he went back to live his life with Peggy. And now Bucky’s asking her if she had a vision, saw it coming.
“No.” That’s not entirely true. “I saw…” She sighs. “Something confusing, and I still don’t think it’s happened.”
He doesn’t say anything, but she knows he’s waiting for her to explain. Still, she takes a few moments to arrange her thoughts in a way that’ll make sense to someone on the outside. Finally, she thinks she has it figured out.
“I saw you sitting on Steve’s bed, and you were upset. I saw myself sit down next to you to try and comfort you. I didn’t know it would be because of this, but-” she starts to take his hand, but stops herself. What if he’s angry? “-I knew it would be sometime today, because of what we’re wearing.”
It’s quiet, deadly quiet, then-
“When?” It’s one word, but she knows what he means.
“Right after Bruce pushed the button.” Maybe she should’ve mentioned it, but she was hoping she was wrong, that Steve wasn’t going to die going back to return the stones to their proper timelines. Turns out she was indeed wrong. He’s not dead. In fact, he got a life.
“Okay.” She frowns. Surely that can’t be it.
“Okay?”
“Yeah.” He nods. “It’s not like we could’ve stopped him, and I can’t blame him, ‘cause if it were me, that’s what I’d do. But-” He sniffs hard, and that’s when she realizes she’s not the only one trying not to cry. “-I’m gonna miss the punk.”
This time, she gives into her instincts and entwines their fingers, metal against flesh.
“I know you will. I know.”
___________________________________________________________________________________
Even if they’ve lost their leaders, the world doesn’t stop spinning, and work doesn’t stop for the Avengers. Sooner or later, they have to regroup, take up the mantle of protecting Earth again. Bucky is surprised when not just Sam, but Rhodey as well asks him to be part of the team. Not just him, he mentally adds. No, they want her too.
“Is this gonna be an issue? You two working together?” She turns in his direction, an eyebrow raised in response to Rhodey’s question. He thinks he knows the answer.
“No. The plan already was to work together until one or the other of us drops.”
Sam cackles.
“Thought that thing on her finger looked familiar. Man, you couldn’t come up with a diamond? Not even a little one?” He catches her rolling her eyes, and fights back a laugh.
“How dangerous do you want her left hook to be, Sam?”
“Good point.”
It’s easily decided that he’ll be part of the main force, and she’ll be in the reserves. That means she’ll keep her job at an upstate community college, teaching English to adults, and he’ll… be doing a lot of paperwork.
What’s not so easily decided is when and how they’re going to make things official. His suggestion is they wait a year for the dust to settle and then do things the old fashioned way, white dress, church, and tux included. Hers is that they walk down to city hall and sign papers. In the end, it’s Pepper who makes the decision.
“Of course you’re having a real wedding. Don’t be silly. And you’ve already waited five years. Why would you want to wait one more?”
She makes polite protests on both their behalves that courthouse weddings are quick and easy, or if they waited a year, they could save up, sort more things out, but Pepper’s not having it, and in the end, they’ve set a date six months in the future, and the widowed Ms. Potts as elected herself the wedding planner. Bucky’s not at all sure about this (Pepper’s a multi-billionare after all, her tastes are probably a little on the extravagant side, and their idea of a “fancy” date has for the most part consisted of “not wearing sweats or pajamas and going somewhere that’s not the sofa in your appartment or mine” y’know, since they’re broke and have been in hiding), but then she pulls out the,
“Please. I need a project to concentrate on that doesn’t have anything to do with… you know. And, I’m paying.”
So of course, neither of them can say no. And really, if the options are wait a year or wait six months, he’ll take the shorter option any day.
He’s been staying in Steve’s apartment (knowing that he’s the one who killed Stark’s parents, he couldn’t bring himself to stay in Avengers H.Q.) since his best friend payed through the next month, but eventually, he has to figure out something else. He may be working for the good guys now, but the price on Brooklyn apartments has just gone through the roof since most people want their old places back, and it’s more than he makes.
He tries not to let on that he’s starting to get a little worried about things (is there anywhere even remotely nearby available at a price he can afford), but eventually it does come up that he’s apartment searching. She has an immediate, rational response:
“Then just move in with me.”
His poker face really must’ve gone to shit (at least around her), because she laughs and, catching a piece of popcorn on the edge of her tongue, asks,
“Come on, Buck. You’ve signed up for the rest of your life. Do you really think we’ll be sick of each other in five months?”
That’s not it, not by a long shot. It’s just that back in his day, moving in together without a trip to church and the exchange of both vows and rings was a way to guarantee whoever the unlucky girl was would be painted as a scarlet woman. It’s archaic, and logically he knows no one bats and eye now, but he still has to ask,
“You sure, Doll?”
She nods.
“Yeah, I have a couch that pulls out into a mattress. Or, if you promise to be a gentleman and keep your hands to yourself, you can have the empty side of my bed.” It’s a joke, and he knows it.
“Sorry. Can’t promise that.” His own smirk matches hers.
“Well, then, I guess I’ll just be charitable and offer it to you anyway.”

Freeze | optional bias | Song-fic
Title: Freeze Pairing: Optional x reader Tags: Angst, Fluff, Song-fic Author’s note: This one-shot song-fic is based on the song Freeze by Jordin Sparks. 
Tumblr media
Hold the pose, a perfect picture Just so I remember how you're looking tonight With one quick glance in the mirror, you check your appearance for one last time. In just a moment he would arrive to pick you up for the night you’ve been anticipating for weeks, and everything had to be perfect.
ding dong
The sound of the door bell starteled you slightly, sending your heart racing in excitement. Hurried footsteps moved from one room to the other, followed by the sound of the door opening. 
“Good afternoon, I am here to pick up Y/N,“ His voice, smooth as honey and warm like fire managed to reach your ears even through the closed doors. 
Hurried steps approached your door and a moment later, it swung open revealing the face of your roommate, beaming with a sense of excitement as if she was living vicariously through you. “Yah, how did you get a date with such a hot guy?!”
“I guess I was just born lucky,” You couldn’t help but smile, running your hands over your dress once more. It wasn’t just luck, it was just a crazy twist of fate. The two of you had been friends since childhood, your parents were close friends so naturally the two of you always spent time together. When he decided to pursue his dream of becoming an idol, you cheered him on as his closest friend. You never imagined that one day you could possibly become more.
 With a deep inhale, you finally dared to step out of your bedroom to meet your date. 
The moment you appear in his line of sight, a dumbfounded smile creeps on his face, eyes locked with yours. “Wow...” Under the intensity of his gaze, you can’t help but feel somewhat self-aware as your cheeks flush with a hue of shyness. “You look beautiful,” He continues, managing to snap out of his trance and taking a step towards you.
“Awww,“ The combined voices of your two roommates breaks the connection you shared between your gazes as you can’t help but glare back at them. 
“Shall we?“ You turn to meet his gaze with a kind hearted smile, but before the two of you can reach the door, footsteps follow you.
“Wait! Wait!“ As the two turn around to look at your roommates again, your vision is blinded by the flash of a camera. As it slowly fades away and clears your sight once more, she nods her head apologetically. “Sorry-- Let me take a picture of you two.“ “Why?“ You frown, feeling embarassed by the way your roommate is acting. Sure, you could appreciate their support but it was just a first date and there was no reason for them to act like overbearing and most importantly embarassing parents.
“Yah, just stand together and smile,“ She huffs back at you, her phone at the ready to take another picture. “You’ll thank me on your wedding day.“
“Park Minah!“ You hiss out of reflex, your cheeks burning brighter than a fever. But the soft sound of his chuckle reaches your ear and you turn to look at his somewhat amused face.
“Let’s just play along,” He smiled, gently wrapping his arm around your shoulders as he turned both of you towards the camera. 
click click click
“Ah, such a handsome couple,“ she pouts as she continues to take pictures. “No wonder he’s an idol with those looks.” 
“Ok, that’s enough, we’ll be late!“ You huff as you step back towards the door and hurriedly open it. “I’ll be home later, don’t wait up!“ You gently tug his arm to follow you in your escape from your roommates. 
“Your friends seem... interesting...“ 
Biting your lip, you can’t help but bow in apology. “I’m sorry, they can be too much sometimes. I’ll make sure she’ll deletes those pictures later.”
“Delete them?“ He sounded surprised, placing his hands on your shoulders to straighten you up again. “Why? I’d like to save them, actually.“
“But what if they leak out... What would your fans think?“
He pondered your question for a moment before answering with a genuine smile, “They’ll think how happy I looked on this first date of many, hopefully.“
It was so simple, slightly teasing, and yet managed to send your heart racing once again. You had known each other for a while but never realized how much you liked each other until recently when he picked up the courage to ask you out. And you didn’t hesitate to say yes.
“Let’s go?“ Instead of waiting for your answer, he offered you his arm and without any consideration, you accepted it.
Let it go, now the days gone  Standing in the dark, although we've turned on the lights
Your eyes had widened as you let his words sink in, an unexpected announcement that seemed to fall out of the sky on your anniverary celebration. “Y-you couldn’t tell me sooner?”
He shrugged innocently, “Our company didn’t tell us until this morning, it was a last minute decision...”
With your heart sinking, you pace back and forth in an attempt to collect your thoughts. “How long?”
“How long?“
“How long will you be away for?“
Again, he shrugged. “They’re still working on finishing the schedule, there might be more tour dates added... They want to take world tour literally.”
You stare at him for a moment, mouth slightly agape as you could feel a whirpool of words building up in your chest. But, you dare not speak. You have no right to be upset, not at him, not at the situation. It was a shock but you also realized that it was a huge accomplishment for him. A world tour. The first world tour. He worked so hard, how could you get upset at something so good. Glancing away, you bite down on your lip to hold down the urge to cry. 
“I’m so sorry, Y/N... This is our big break...“ He tries to reason with you, his voice somehow saddened. “If I knew beforehand we could have pre--“
“I get it... Oppa...“ You manage to speak, your voice barely louder than a whisper. The excitement with which he broke the news completely disappeared from his voice.
“And if I could take you with me--“
“Go...“
His brows rise up in surprise, “What?”
“Go.“
He takes a careful step towards you, his brows now knitted into a frown. “Y/N...”
“Just go already!“ You yell at him, your tears finally breaking through. “If you have to go, go! Leave me alone!“
Your tearfilled eyes meet his gaze, stalling for a moment as his expression shifts. A soft, disappointed sigh escaping his lips. “I thought you’d be supportive...” without waiting for your answer, he turns around and disappears from your view.
The moment you hear the door slam shut, your legs give out as you slump fown to the floor. Hugging your knees to your chest, you allow the tears to run. 
Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by It's leaving you and I to... Freeze a moment, its never been better Seated on your bed, you are surrounded by pictures. Memories of good times you spent together. The picture in your apartment, taken on the night of your first date. Pictures of your picnic by the Han River. Pictures of you on your birthday. Pictures of your eldest sister’s wedding day where you nervously had asked him to come as your date.
Freeze all over, we won't last forever
You said that you're sorry for pushing me  But then smiled when I opened my eyes
Behind closed eyes you could still imagine the day he disappeared out of your life.
None of your friends and family knew what had taken place the day the tour had been announced. They merely assumed that due to his busy schedule, the two of you didn’t get to spent time together. Oh how you wished that was the reason.
They were going to depart from the company together, heading for the airport. Due to the excitement, their family had been invited to wish them luck before leaving and thus here you were. Standing eye to eye, your heart breaking as it remembered the last words he said to you two weeks ago.
“Good luck,“ You breathed, extending your hand for a handshake.
His gaze dropped from your face to your hand before traveling back up to meet your gaze once more. Reaching out, he took hold of your hand and pulled you closer towards him, wrapping his arms around your smaller torso. 
“O-oppa...“ Again, tears were stinging your eyes.
“I promise I will call you and text you every day,“ He whispered against your hair, his voice low and husky as he tried to mask his feelings. “And buy you lots of souvenirs!“
“You know it will be very hard to keep that promise...“ You sighed softly, he was going to be so busy with rehearsals and the concerts while trying to balance eating and sleeping. How could he possibly fit you in?
“No,“ He said with determination. “I swear on my life, on my family’s life, on my career, on my perfect abs--“
I'm gonna freeze a moment, while we're together
Stepping back to look at him, you noticed his goofy smile that managed to melt your heart a thousand times. 
“Let’s take a picture together! In commemoration!“ One of his members called, gesturing their manager to get the camera ready while they ushered their friends and family together.  
click Keep the peace, bygones be gone Coming up the rain under the life that we've made It was too good to be true, the fact that your heart believed his promise while your head knew better than to be gullible. He wasn’t able to keep his promise and you weren’t sure whether to be angry about the fact that he broke his promise or that you were foolish enough to expect him to. 
It had been two weeks since his last call and days since his last message. You knew he was busy, you had known from the start. You had kept tabs on his schedules from the fansites, you knew exactly where he was and what he was doing. But he had promised. And you believed him.
Under here, we're not so soft Forgiving the feeling that we put on parade From the corner of your eye you noticed your phone lighting up. An incoming call. Was it him?
‘Don’t pick up, Y/N.’ You kept telling yourself to ignore the call. You knew it was petty but your heart was hurt and you didn’t want to hear his voice. Not right now. 
After a minute, the ringing stopped and you curiously look at the caller ID. As you had expected it was him. Part of you felt guilty for being so petty and contemplated calling him back. Before you could even make up your mind, his name flashed across the screen again.
Taking a deep breath, you finally decide to answer the call. “Hello?”
“Y/N?“ His voice sounded tired. 
“Ah, oppa...“ You mutter softly. “Hello.“
He chuckled softly. Oh, how you missed the sound of his laughter. “Ah, it’s so nice to finally hear your voice again!“ 
“Is it?“
There was a brief silence, although he seemed to excited to talk to you, the bitterness in the few words you spoke to him had not gone unnoticed.
“Are you angry?“
“I’m not.“ 
His sigh was deep and loud, “...I’m sorry, I should have called more but things got so crazy and I was so tired--“
“I understand.“
“Would it make you feel better if I said we’ll be back in two weeks?“
With pursed lips, you let his question sink in for a moment. Was their tour already over? Or did he just say that to keep her content for the moment.
“Why?“
“Why?“
“Why are you coming back in two weeks?“
You could tell it wasn’t the response he had hoped for. He probably expected you to cry and cheer, but instead he was questioned. 
“We’re invited for a music festival in Busan so instead of a week off in Europe, we’re flying back for a while...“
And your heart leapt again. Just a moment ago you were wallowing in your own pity, selfishly sulking that in between his packed schedule, he hadn’t made you a priority.
“Can we meet then?“
“Of course!“ His voice perked up before getting distracted by some background muttering. “Ah-- I have to go now but I will see you real soon, okay?“
“Alright, oppa!”
Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by It's leaving you and I to... The moment you laid eyes on him, your heart fluttered like the first time you realized you had feelings for him. A sense of longing rushed over you as you made your way over to him. “Oppa!”
“Y/N!“ He smiled in greeting, catching you in his embrace. His voice sounded tired and his face looked worn but it was a sight for sore eyes nonetheless.
“I missed you.” Instead of replying, he merely nodded in return. A pout curled your lips as you glanced up at him. “Aren’t you happy to see me?”
“Huh? Oh, of course I am,“ He shook his head, taking a deep breath. “Just tired, I suppose. Listen, I have to go meet up with the others but I’ll see you at the concert tonight, right?“
Without waiting for your reply, he gently pats your head before walking away. 
Freeze  A moment, its never been better  Freeze  All over, we won't last forever
The headlines would never lie, especially not when reported by such a reputable source. There had been rumors for weeks, but you always turned away and ignored what they were saying. But everything somehow made sense now.
You weren’t pretty, maybe he told you but he was just being kind. You couldn’t light a candle to her. You didn’t understand his life, not really. You were just a commoner, not an idol like her. 
How could the world have known before you did? 
You said that you're sorry for pushing me  But then smiled when I opened my eyes
“You are really too much,“ He yelled bitterly, throwing his hands up in frustration. You had marched into his dressing room with the backstage pass he had his manager give you earlier that day. The moment you saw him, you had started questioning him.
“Me?!“ You returned the favor with an equally bitter tone. “You’re the one fooling me, what did you expect?!“
"Fooling you? Fooling you how?” His gaze narrowed as he let your accusations sink in. 
You pulled out your phone and showed him the search results, scrolling down the headlines, some of which had been accompanied by pictures. “Then what do you call this?!” You threw at him.
All the headlines reported on the dating news. But the articles weren’t talking about you, the picture didn’t show you. They told the story about a hallyu star and a succesful idol turned actress who had been spotted on numerous dates over the course of weeks, not just in Korea but also overseas the most recent one pictured below some of the headlines. 
“Those are just rumors!“ He huffed though you noticed how hard it was for him to look you in the eyes, “We met up with mutual friends once, that’s all.“
“Then how come there are so many pictures of just the two of you?!“
“I don’t know, but it’s just a misunderstanding...“
 “Yeah, right!”
A frustrated sigh escaped his lips, the intensity seemed to startle him even. “I know I haven’t been keeping my promise but you know I’ve only thought of you all this time... I love you Y/N!”
Tears were burning in your eyes, hearing him say he loved you only making things worse. You knew him well enough to recognize when he was lying and it angered you even more that he dared to utter those words while doing so.
“How can you say that so casually when you can’t even tell me the truth?“
His eyes finally met yours at the sound of your voice breaking, hesitating for a moment before releasing another sigh. “When we were in Japan... We did meet up with some mutual friends, we were trainees at the same time so we reminisced...” 
“And?”
“And we had a nice time... We talked a lot and decided to meet up again while we were both around... We caught up in the moment so at one point we ki---“
Your hand flung up, he didn’t need to finish his sentence for you to know where it was going and the tingling feeling of your hand crossing his cheek only fueled your already aching heart. 
“... I wish the two of you the best...” You offered him a bitter, courteous smile before turning on your heel and marching off. 
I'm gonna Freeze A moment, while we're together Don't stop, gotta know what you got There's no second chances in life He stared at the female before him, his brows knitted in a frown as all color had escaped his face. “You must be kidding...”
The beautiful woman shook her head, her black locks swaying in the movement. “It was fun for a while but you’re too embarrassing... I have a reputation to protect and you are just too much.”
“What is that supposed to mean?!“
“Don’t take it personally, oppa. I really enjoyed our time together and we received much praise as a couple but... I need someone to raise me up, not drag me down.“
“S-so...“ His jaw clenched as he spoke bitterly. “You just used me for the publicity?“
She pursed her lips, “Don’t see it like that, we both benefitted from this. Now it’s time to move on, nothing personal.“ He stared blankly ahead as the woman gave him a quick peck on the cheek for the last time before exiting his apartment, leaving him all alone.
Don't break, gotta give what you take With you Freeze A moment, its never been better Ten missed calles and about twenty unread messages. Normally it would drive you crazy having so many notifications on your phone but you knew who the sender was and you had no interest in hearing his voice or reading his words. 
After your last encounter two months ago, you made sure to avoid any and all mention of your name. You turned off the radio whenever their songs were played and stopped watching whenever they guested on a tv show. 
You were so far lost in your own sorrow that you barely noticed the doorbell ring. There was a brief silence before your roommate’s voice called from the other side of your door. “Y/N-ah... There’s someone here to see you.”
You lifted your head from your knees as you had your legs pulled to your chest, “I’m sick. Leave me alone.”
Silence. Your roommates knew better than to press on the subject. They had seen you come home crying and tried to comfort you but you had shut them out. You needed to be alone. 
Relaxing your legs, you turned to lie down on your side with your back facing the door. A few moment later you could hear the door open and with a loud, frustrated sigh you sat up.
“I told you to leave me--“ You scolded but your voice was stuck in your throat as your eyes met his. His eyes were equally red and puffy as yours were and the very sight of him broke your heart a million times again.
“Y/N...“
“What are you doing here?“
“You didn’t answer any of my calls or texts, I got worried--“
You scoffed, swinging your legs over the side of the bed and pushing yourself to your feet. “Why would I? There is nothing left to say to you.”
“I-I know i hurt you... I treated you badly and I wasn’t honest with you...“ His voice broke, his apology and his confession pouring straight from his heart. He had come to realize he threw away something amazing - a bond that was more than just love, it was friendship and comraderie, for someone who caught him at a vulnerable moment and made use of it. “I’m so, so sorry. I never should have let you go... I promised we would always stick together and I broke it. I’m so sorry.“
Freeze  All over, we won't last forever
You remembered, when you were younger. When you were growing up side by side. Someone had told you a bed time story about a prince and a princess who had been bound by fate but lost each other when the princess was swept away by a dragon that no one in the land dared to challenge. No one except for the prince, he saved the princess and they promised to stay by each other’s side for forever.  
It was a story you had fallen in love with, something you often played out and each time he would promise you he would be by your side. Even when he became a trainee, he continued to vow this earnestly. Even when he debuted. And up until recently, he had kept his promise. And here he was again, vowing to keep the promise once more. 
But things were different now.
"We know very well that this is a promise neither of us can keep... Not like this...”
“But…”
You offered him a sad smile, tears rolling down your cheek as you met his pleading gaze. “The two of us, we live in different worlds and are chasing different dreams... And those dreams don’t work together... So, I will always be your fan and proudly support you instead.”
He reached forward and pulled you close against his chest, his arms wrapping around you tightly. He didn’t want to let you go but he understood what you were saying. Maybe one day, your dreams could overlap and become one. But for now, it was better to remember the moments of happiness in the past while walking towards a future. Separately. 
“One day... You will be my dream, Y/N.“ He whispered against your hair. “This, I promise.“
Freeze A moment, its never been better I Freeze All over, we won't last forever You looked at me with the truth in your eyes And you said it's ok, you can go I'm gonna Freeze This moment, while we're together Freeze A moment

Which of your fics?
I was tagged by @locke-writes Noah!!! My love, thank you!!! Honestly, idk what's so therapeutic about looking back at old writing, but this made me appreciate it so much more!!! This is such a fun, lovely tag game and I'm so grateful to have been a part of it!!! Xoxoxo💜💖💜💖💜💖💜
Did you think would get a bigger reaction/audience than it did?
Well. . . . recently I've been feeling like everything kind of flops, y'know? I'd hate to sound whiny, but I get so excited to post something, and then it doesn't do as nearly as well as I'd thought. Crash and Burn (Lila Pitts Oneshot), Live and Breathe (Michael Gray Oneshot), and Temporary (Bonnie Gold Oneshot) are three that come to mind/are pretty recent 💜
Got a better reaction than you were expecting?
Knee Socks (Five Hargreeves Drabble) for sure!!! I've never had a fic kind of blow up like that, and considering it was a drabble and my blog was a lot smaller, its still mind boggling. Nicknames (Erik Killmonger Drabble), Emotional Whore (Thomas Shelby Oneshot) and Wicked Pt. 1 (Thomas Shelby Oneshot) also did incredibly well, which is always a shock, especially when I feel so insecure and unsure about posting it/think about deleting it 💖
Your funniest?
I don't really consider any of them funny? A more lighthearted one I'm still fond of is House Party (Billy Hargrove Oneshot). Ngl, I love it for a lot of reasons, but especially the quotes/dialogue. I know its not the best in general, but it's one of my biggest weaknesses as a writer and I'm glad I could work on it in this 💕
Your darkest or angstiest?
I think I might have a thing for writing dark things :P the most recent would be Clawfoot (Arthur Shelby Oneshot) where I was in a really dark mentality and it was written over a period of months as a means of therapy. It was both dark and intimate, so I didn't include a tag list. Older/earlier ones might be Hypothermia (Thomas Shelby Oneshot), Unhinged (Geralt of Rivia Oneshot), Childs Play (Klaus Hargreeves Drabble), and Too Late (Nebula Drabble). I have a lot, and more lol, so there's no shortage of angst!!! 💌
Your absolute favorite?
Oh I have so many for so many different reasons!!! I like some small lines, or plots, little details!!! I have no order for these, and these are three off the top of my head, but Cloud Animals (Luther Hargreeves Drabble), Blood Sport (Bonnie Gold Oneshot), and Over Before You Knew It (John Shelby Oneshot) 🌼
Was easiest to write?
I think as time goes on writing longer things has been easier, which is crazy, because I used to never think I'd never make it past 500 words, and now I mainly write oneshots! I can't say for sure the easiest. Some I didn't have to work so long on, like The Empath (Diego Hargreeves Drabble) or Volatile (Diego Hargreeves Drabble). Both are Diego lol, but these come to mind first when I think of something where the story kind of wrote itself 🌈
Was hardest to write?
Ahhh idk why, but anything with Dick Grayson. Animosity (Dick Grayson Drabble) or Hereditary (Dick Grayson Drabble). I felt like I never wrote him well as a character, among so many others, so writing anything for him that I could also be proud of was always a challenge. Some I feel like I know through and through, and others I have the hardest time wtiting/connecting with 💔
Have you re-read the most?
I don't really reread a lot of them. Some of the oldest like Napkin Artist (Steve Rogers Drabble), Vormir (Gamora Drabble), or Clairvoyance (Marvel Drabble). I like to revisit, especially the ones with a lot of comments/feedback, but most I'm either too embarrassed of or post and never look at again 😳
Would you recommend to someone reading your work for the first time?
Hmmm. . . . I'm not entirely sure. I think I'd definitely promote some from all different fandoms and all different times, but especially the first one I ever wrote :) I'm probably being too sentimental, but without that first step, I never would have started any of this! 200+ fics later 💟
Napkin Artist (Steve Rogers Drabble)
Vormir (Gamora Drabble)
I'm On My Own (Tony Stark Drabble)
Clairvoyance (Marvel Drabble)
Crying Over Spilt Milk (Diego Hargreeves Drabble)
Knee Socks (Five Hargreeves Drabble)
House Party (Billy Hargrove Drabble)
Dirt Nap (Arthur Shelby Oneshot)
Unhinged (Geralt of Rivia Oneshot)
Honey, Baby, Sweetheart (Alfie Solomons Drabble)
Wake Up (Alfie Solomons Drabble)
Some are repeats! But I like them enough to mention again!!!
Tagging! @murswrites @multi-fandom-iimagines @theshelbyclan @peak-a-blinder @writerdream22 @writeroutoftime @writingwithacupoftea @smallheathgangsters @swanimagines @multifandomwriter56. @peakyswritings+ anyone else!!! This is so fun to look back on writing, seeing how I've grown and improved, even if it is a lil embarassing/cringey lol 🌷

haikyuu & cafes (1/?)
Tumblr media
bigass creds to @luvoikawa with this post that inspired me to write too much nonsense about nonsense
all my writing got deleted edition 🐸 also jesus christ sorry this is super long i just really like cafes and drinkys and coffys...
Tumblr media
karasuno
ukai
for a guy who gets up early every morning coffee is a must. canned coffee is his drink of choice for getting up and it’s one of his morning routines before starting work. he actually dislikes cafes because they have an atmosphere he isn’t too fond of and likes bars (enjoys shit beers = enjoys shit coffee) more- but he could go to a cafe when asked by his friends or if he’s going on a date, just don’t ask him about what type of coffee he’d like specifically because all he wants is it to be hot and black, no milk no sugar. when he was younger he actually disliked coffee, but with age he learned to 1. not be fussy about it 2. just tolerate it to pick him up. it’s not like he dislikes the tastes of it but i don’t see him as picking up oh many tannin inteiciasies cause he’s not developed a pallete, also gets the cheapest no fuss shit. prefers hot over cold even in the summer
for food, he doesn’t enjoy completely western menus. likes meat and doesn’t order any sweets like pastries and whatever the fuck, not only is it too expensive but also he’d just rather have the coffee unless he’s particularly hungry. like i said he isnt a cafe guy but life takes you to a lot of places so ☕️
takeda
actually can taste tanins like some sort of a legend. still though on a teachers salary you’re not going to have an espresso machine at home so he settles for his drip brew. actually doesn’t like espresso too much either if hes working at least. but since he is a teacher and a club supervisor he drinks 2 (two) of those shits a day, one in the morning from home one in the afternoon from the teachers lounge- needs it to deal with the energy at practice. takes just milk in his coffee and prefers it steamed, but has that shitty milk foamer thing that takes so much time to get results out of he just ends up drinking drip w cold milk; the workingmans choice.
with cafes and food he still enjoys drip brew (this time fancier) coffee with milk. could ask to taste test the plain bean coffee if he enjoyed his first cup so much. LOVES a pastry with his drink, if he goes there to do work will get a coffee and a pastry of any kind, i think he likes cream so expect him to get a cream puff esp if on a date cause then he gets to share it and be cute 🥴 loves a cafe hangout with friends or an s/o
kiyoko
pre time skip she did not need coffee at all. like her face at first says either only black coffee or shes so well adjusted she needs nothing and i’d say it’s the latter though i could debate. though she was an enjoyer of canned coffee milk later in life before having to consume coffee for life energy in her adulthood. nothing too fancy either though, small coffee machine that only she uses (tanakas a pussy!) for making coffee, pours milk and adds a teaspoon of sugar into it- doesn’t really like flavors cause to her they taste artificial. busy lady! so she can pick up some starbucks or sit down for a brief second and get coffee wherever she is, thinks it energizes her and also is an enjoyer of the novelty of steamed milk. it actually doesn’t buzz her ever even when she first starts drinking it so rather than having to drink more coffee as the tolerance builds up she just has a plateau of coffee give me caffeine boost
for cafes she just gets whatever looks good to her. also not the biggest fan of sweets rather than a good bread, enjoyer of plain croissants and good bread if she gets a sandwitch. who doesn’t love carbs
yachi
the sweet sugary drink enjoyer has arrived. didn’t even touch coffee until her 3rd year at college, tried a sip of black coffee from her friend in junior high and became instantly afraid of it- managed to skirt by college with a good schedule until the junior terror seeped into her veins and now her early classes she has to drink coffee for. but like she still gets good grades so it’s only the morning she’s required to partake in bean water for- doesn’t even do anything on weekends if she doesn’t have anywhere to be. at home she has 2 syrups 5 milks and overloads her drink so much she’s barely drinking any coffee at all, still the sugar and the hot stuff in the morning has an effect (placebo lol)
loves a starbucks for its accessibility, but gets refreshers and iced drinks more often than any of their caffeine. not only does she think it’s not worth it if she can make coffee at home, but she has a tiny cafe she goes to to cram that serves a mean lavender rose vanilla latte (fucking ew?) that shes in love with. but it costs a lot and she’s a rare visitor, gets sweets and small sandwitches if she goes. w friends she doesn’t know that well she’ll get a flavored coffee to seem mature&cute, but with old friends she’d rather drink a milk tea or a seasonal drink rather than bother w a latte (since she uses it to get energy if it’s 5pm and her day is nearly done whyd she need it then?) no 7-11 coffee or vending machine coffee (junior high trauma) rather sweets and candy if she’s buying from one
daichi
courtesy to @sugardaddykenma, i think daichi oinking his way to the top ended after he had a midlife crisis- so he stops drinking coffee the way he would at the pig pen. sorry ok enough puns but yeah i think he was drinking way too much coffee in both college and at his “job” so coffee now messes with his stomach so much he thinks he might have a heart attack if he drinks more than one cup a week. i don’t know if that directly makes sense but too much coffee can literally kill you and since now he doesn’t fear the revolution here’s another thing for his mind. no coffee, maybe like once if hes at a cafe with his friends but really really prefers plain tea more- especially as he gets older. likes green white and black teas rather than herbal cause caffeine, and doesn’t put sugar in either cause hes #real and genuinely enjoys the flavors more that way
doesn’t go to cafes except for reunions or hanging out with the boys, always more of a “what do they have to eat” rather a “what’s new and exiting to drink” boy. i actually think the only reason he does drink coffee occasionally is because sugawara teases him and also sometimes it’s easier to order something to not be embarassing and to live up to the expectation of a dilf on the prowl rather than well like. dilf drinking tiny mug of jasmine tea. surprisingly an atmosphere enjoyer, people talking all around him is comforting- though if he were to go there frequently he’d grown annoyed
sugawara
king of looking fuckable at a cafe. literally can’t drink coffee black and hates it but still uses it for that energy boost in the morning. has a cheap espresso machine (like 2nd hand and super busted) with a milk frother cause he can’t even drink coffee with just milk it’s so repulsuve to him, he’s gotta fancy it up with syrups & steamed liquids to get anything out of it. but like i said hes king of looking fuckable at a cafe and that’s cause he goes to them all the fucking time. to study to hang for dates like part of it is the ambience is unparalleled but also i mean 1. he likes looking hot 2. he can study 3. man idk hes just a little bitch that wants to look smarter than he actually is. literally in love with the concept of a meet cute so hes in there like “wow... i look so pretty and i’m reading such a big book won’t someone come talk to me”enjoys smiling at other hot patrons and the nines. i think he’d start banter only if you spilled a drink though or something happened hes not that confident to go up to someone full force, and well while he is there sometimes for the hell of it he does actually study there too cause it forces him to do something rather than fuck around on the computer at home. win win system
frequent cafe flyer and frequent cafe snack enjoyer. he’d much rather go for the small snacks like chips and nuts rather than big meal shit cause since his stuff is there he doesn’t wanna get anything on it, and would rather lounge back at home while eating anyways. frequent buys you a sweet on a date type of move, asks if you wanna give him a small bite but doesn’t actually enjoy most sweets that much. ICE LATTE ENJOYER but only when hes on the go or it’s summer, they make a mess when condensation happens.
asahi
hate to tell you folks, but you won’t find this guy in any cafes ever. if he needs to study in a public place he’d rather go to a library and if he can’t go there he’s just seriously gonna sit on the street if it’s the worst of it. can not only not handle cafes if it’s at full capacity, sugawara once shared his cafe strategies with him and now he overthinks whenever he steps foot into one. if he does enter a cafe it’s for a to go order of a cafe au lait (with soy milk, he got in the habit from ordering the wrong thing and never asking them to fix it) because espresso beverages give him anxiety, and add anxiety with a lot of people there it’s just no good and he becomes nervous. he does relax when his friends are there though, and a la p5 enjoys a quiet cafe at night the best. he like herbal teas without sugar (maybe some honey) and aromatic tea blends, but not refresher like beverages at starbucks
since he doesn’t sit down and eat at cafes hes not getting anything substantial, but has a pertulance for sweet stuff! nothing too big but if he gets something sweet with his coffee (and he does get coffee out a lot actually i feel i should clarify. it’s the devil wears prada influence and if you’re a fashion designer chance is you need to go somewhere fast so he needs the energy to power walk and actually ends up picking up coffee for his crew sometimes)
nishinoya
oh christ dude if he got coffee while in high school he’d go fucking insane. way too much current energy + caffeine is such a bad combination- but i think he’d never step into a cafe until his world traveling days. in which case i mean like first of all if you are traveling you’re going to have to keep a tight schedule unless you’re like rich as fuck and can afford to leisure around, and i think he does have some savings but at the same time if he’s himself he’s very likely running around- in summary, cafe visits very dépendant on the culture. cafe dates and cafe stops to get a pick up i think would be the most common stuff here, and coffee would be only used as a wake up i need more energy tool
with food i mean going to a great underground cafe is a right of passage if you’re traveling so i’m sure hes tried all sorts of shit and also hes a big eater, so i can see him getting whatever looks the craziest. big coffee ice cream enjoyer but like i said that’s just to wake up & i think there’s better places to get better juice (& international soda) than a hole in the wall coffee place. did someone say italian sodas or do i have to get my hearing checked
tanaka
man this guys a pussy. thinks starbucks is the fancy coffee place even though it’s a chain and can’t enjoy a non sweetened coffee- even sweetened coffees are a bust. honestly also is too concerned about caffeine being able to “hinder” him, it’s not going to kill you or make you crazy but probably saw someone go balls off the walls with it and is too pussy to try it himself because he thinks he’s so energetic already it’ll make him turn super saiyan. very big enjoyer of a juice, a smoothie, or a refresher again if we’re going from starbucks’ menu. actually yeah it the place offers smoothies he definitely gets that 100% no questions asked, cause it’s the one sweet he can permit himself because he actually thinks it’s healthy when the only reason it “is” is because it’s fruit. does not enjoy the vibes whatsoever and is kinda spooked by everyone drinking coffee in coffee drinking establishments. his wife is more of a man than him in that regard but he can take it
cafe foods aplenty though! likes to walk in and run to get smth and leave, cause it’s less effort than making something and more effort than going to a convenience store. actually has this thing where he picks wifey dearest up snacks he thinks she’ll like. before that he used to scoff at them but now seeing as shes a frequent patron and he is married to her he’s all like look at this treat i bought for you at (blank). it’s kinda sweet! plus he prolly gets a takeout drink for himself too so win win
ennoshita
physical therapy is a lot of work! sorry for the lack of substance for this guy but like a normal adult i think he is normal with his coffee consumption. aka- drinks it to get up, and when hes tired. i think he has a particular interest in trying new things though and will get whatever is interesting to him or something that is weird on the menu like a pumpkin chocolate latte or some shit like that that is unusual but still tasty. adventurous and also you can’t tell at all that hes had coffee, acts completely the same and people even tell him he should drink some coffee cause of the low energy. hes had two cups already and that’s enough!
kinoshita
i think this guy just doesn’t like coffee for whatever reason. he seems like the type of dude to just not drink it and instead go for something energizing in the form of tea or an energy drink but not bean juice, just a vibe! enjoys a cafe every once in a while but goes rarely, i mean hes just chilling! there is a place that hes gone to that he is now an irregular regular of that has a tea infusion of different berries and ingredients that’s meant to clear up your sinuses and calm you. they don’t sell it in packets and hes disappointed about that but the very reason it exists at all is because it’s made out of fresh chopped shit and spices, also it’s a gimmick. they serve them in tea pitchers and he stays there and reads until he finishes. it’s the little things!
kazuhito
writing got erased again but like literally just think of a guy. a guy that works at a company who has to go to work everyday so yeah he drinks coffee and the chances of it being instant are very high. actually doesn’t know that starbucks is a chain and just has the regular drip coffee machine at home, probably takes it with milk and sugar and whatever is there at the time. relaxed guy and relaxed preferences
kageyama
dude doesn’t even know what coffee is to be completely honest. well no that’s a lie he definitely tried some but it made him jittery and he can’t be jittery or else he’s not doing perfect tosses, so no can do. like i know the milk joke is old but i don’t think the habit stops at high school i genuinely think unless one of his teammates or someone with him is like no getting milk or they don’t just serve raw milk because who the fuck would he maybe gets a milk tea at most. honestly not a fan of sugary drinks such as juice or refreshers and whatnot nor iced drinks because well hes just a weirdo. if you take him to a sbucks or somewhere else either order him a london fog or water or a cup of milk if you want your cashier to have something funny to tell. he likes matcha lattes but since they’re high caf he only gets them on off days and like when does he have those? never. genuine weirdo
okay for food it’s anything goes but i think thr funnier thing to talk about would be the amount of time it takes him to read a menu. literally can’t decide on anything especially if a place is out of stock well hes gonna be out of comission for a few minutes as he reconsiders. asks what this has and what’s in this if it’s not listed so it’s really best to just pick smth for him, plain simple and he won’t have any complaints and just sit down w you.
hinata
actually got fond of espresso in brazil but still prefers juices and shit to actual caffeinated beverages. they don’t make them like they used to there 😔 but he does get lattes. LOVES coconut milk and nut milks cause they have an “oomph” (what?) but honestly anything goes kind of guy in where he can get coffee out of a machine at a convenience store starbucks a cafe anything anywhere no problem. thing is though he can only consume it in a short amount of time aka just the morning or else he’s unable to sleep at night, a thing that is most definitely a placebo but like he believes on it so insistently that he just doesn’t mess with it. is a fan of anything new and anything that catches his interest in coffee places, likes to pick stuff up rather than sit down cause he’s a fan of walking and talking and drinking
pastry guy :) or just anything breaded. again likes to pick whatever catches his interest cause he became more adventurous with food for sure, enjoys a sandwitch or some shit i mean you get the point i think. he’s just a funny little guy
tsukishima
honestly? cant fucking drink black coffee. i think it’d be so funny and well also fitting that if he does drink anything he does drink super sugary sweet stuff, like i mean we know he enjoys sweets anyways so why not push it further and say this motherfucker can’t handle tanins at all? and like by all i mean he has to have tea with milk and sugar no matter what it is (well not herbal tea 🍵 that’s an emoji of a green tea but herbal tea never should be enjoyed with milk) his go to is a hot matcha latte and a cold iced vanilla latte. cause both are sweet and make him look a little less pussy when ordering them. straight up will chug purely black coffee out of spite and suppress gags to seem cool, it’s okay tbough hes so far only worried about this happening in front of friends and it hasn’t yet. he has practiced at home though and he can so far not gag but still squint, which he’s thinking if he has to explain will explain by “well uh it tastes like shit so”
i don’t think he needs coffee to get up but instead does need something sweet. since cake doesn’t last a while i’d see him trying to buy some for himself discreetly like i know this dude isn’t a pussy but also imagine being so hard and then being made fun of for eating a cake alone by yourself in a cafe. doesn’t order sweets therefore unless hes in a private room or with a trusted friend. yamaguchi won’t tell on you bro in fact he’ll order the cake and let you have it. doesn’t like any savory thing on the menu for some reason, no matter the place he goes
yamaguchi
actually enjoys tanins but chugs cheap shitty coffee for energy no matter the time of day. he just got used to the lack of taste and definitely grabbed a caffeine addiction to add to his problems to worry about but it’s okay cause hey while he’d never say it he thinks it’s better to be able to taste them and enjoy a normal cup of good beans than to be like his unnamed friend. enjoyer of the whole menu, entirely dependent on the mood. focusing, straight espresso shots, reading, matcha or peppermint tea, vibing, lemonade or lemonade mixture idk you name it. very into cafe energy and feels good whenever he enters one, but doesn’t do it out of neccesity cause once he did actually have someone slightly hit on him at a cafe and he stopped going to it because he interacted with them very awkwardly. is sure the baristas heard and just can’t do it anymore. has pulled all nighters and 24-hr study sessions in internet cafes chugging coffees like a motherfucker. hasn’t yet poured a redbull into coffee yet but i mean it could be coming we never know (nah hes afraid of it)
not a fan of ordering stuff in cafes at all cause hes not there to eat. can be persuaded for a bite if friends are there but if not then hes avoidant of foods. you can’t blame him! it’s kind of awkward to order food at a coffee place anyways so he just steers clear

I had a dream last night where Commander Namjoon did watch the tape and he got a little 🥵 by it. I know it’ll never be canon to Void, and you’ve already got so much stuff you’re working on, but how do you think he would have reacted? Would you ever be interested in writing a lil drabble about it? Void 5 btw was fantastic!
Okay... so I have three different previous versions of this scene that all involved him watching the tape. But none of them felt right, so I removed them and started over until we got the version that’s in Void 5. But you can see what it might have looked like. They are all first or second drafts though, so they aren’t very detailed. And they don’t all make sense in context anymore because a lot of the chapter changed around them
Version 1
Namjoon walks over to his computer where the video is still open, lewdly starring at you. 
The idea that he was just watching it in here both embarasses and arouses you. 
“You sure about this?”
“Absolutely.”
The video starts playing. Video-you always seems sexier when on of your crew members is watching. 
“So you really aren’t fucking Yoongi?”
“No.”
“Poor bastard. How he could resist touching you…” Namjoon says, then looks over, wondering if he has taken it too far.
“Could you?” you ask, enjoying seeing your commander lose some of his carefully crafted control.
“I’m not sure.”
 “Though if we’re keeping no secrets, he did come on me after the video finished.”
“Fuck…” he adjusts his pants again, erection becoming obvious. 
He gets to the part of the video where you admit that you want to blow him and pauses.
“You want to suck my dick?”
You nod. 
“You’re not just saying that for the video?”
“No, I want to so badly, commander.”
“This is a bad idea,” he sighs. “I’m your commanding officer.”
Can’t let it go when you’re this close. 
“And you’re such  a good commander. You’re such a good leader. You take such good care of your crew. You would take of me wouldn’t you? Help me with this problem I’m having?”
“What problem is that?”
“That I haven’t touched a cock in two years.” You are walking over to him all seductively. 
“Fuck…”
“Can I see it?”
He nods. He is only so strong. 
You blow him. 
It is amazing to touch a dick again. You just want to lavish it with attention. 
He comes pretty quickly. You stand up proud of yourself. He pulls you down into his lap. 
He tries to kiss you, but you refuse.
“It’s just hormones commander. Just sexual release. Not emotional attachment. He nods. 
“Well, I can reciprocate right?” Sneaks hand up between your legs. “My god you’re so wet. That really turned you on.”
He gets you off with his fingers. It feels so amazing to have something inside you again. Two fingers plus thumb on clit and he kisses your neck and chest. 
It feels amazing. 
“I think I have a way to solve our morale problem.” You say. “Call a group meeting for tomorrow.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Version 2
Things have mostly gone back to normal, maybe there’s some lingering flirtation with Jimin and Yoongi, when the Commander asks to speak with you alone. Namjoon calls you to the bridge.
“I need to ask you something.” “What is the nature of your relationship with Engineer Min?”
You panic. What is your relationship? He’s seen you naked and you almost fucked him but didn’t? He helped you film some porn but now you’ve deleted it?
“He’s my crew member.” That was true. 
“And he has been entirely professional with you?” Well, no, he most certainly had not. But you were as much at fault with that as he was. Where was this coming from? Does he no something. 
“It’s hard to be perfectly professional all the time.”
Namjoon frowns and nods. “Is there anything you want to tell me?”
“Why are you asking me this?”
“Um, recently it has come to my attention that there might be a sexual relationship between you two.”
Who brought it to his attention? Can he just sense the pheromones radiating off you? Is the tension between you that noticeable? You doubted Yoongi would have said anything. 
“Why do you think there’s something between us?”
Breathes out.
“Something had been brought to my attention.” Oh no. It can’t be can it? How would he have gotten it?
Oh no. Oh no. 
“A video. Of you. And Yoongi.” Panic panic panic. “In a sexually compromising position.” Had he watched it? He must?  Shame is making the world collapse around you. Do they all know now? Do they know all your filthy secrets?
“Breathe breathe,” He approaches you to be comforting. “Look, I just need to know if its consensual.”
“Consensual?”
“That he’s not pressuring you or harrassing you into something you don’t want to be doing.”
You begin crying. You thought he was going to punish or chastise you, but he just wants to make sure you’re okay. 
You hate that you are crying in front of your commander. What a stupid girlish thing to be doing. 
“I’m so sorry” you sob. He gathers you into his arms.
“Why are you sorry?” He is so warm and solid.
“I behaved totally unprofessionally. I fucked up the whole mission.”
“You have not fucked up the whole mission.” 
“It gets so lonely here.” 
He wipes away your tears.  “I get it. I get lonely too.”
“You do?”
“I’m sure we all do.”
“No one else is running around making porn though.”
“Maybe we just don’t have an interested audience. Who’d want to see that?”
You would, but you don’t say that. 
“There’s actually nothing in the official rules that prohibits crew members from being sexually intimate.” 
“There isn’t?”
“I mean, we’re all consenting adults with no other humans for millions of miles. The ICSE isn’t stupid. The relationship just has be disclosed to your commanding officer.”
“So everyone can have sex but you?” He is surprised at this line of questioning. 
“Well, uh, I guess I would have to disclose it to my commander back on Earth. But, it seems unlikely that I will be be doing that.”
Does he not know how much you want him? “Did you watch the whole video?”
“What?” Wide-eyed. “I mean, I had to make sure you weren’t being coerced.”
“So you watched the whole thing?”
“It was corrupted. Tae only got bits and pieces.”
“So you don’t know.”
“Know what?”
“You don’t think it would mess up the group dynamics? Cause jealousy?”
“You’re a grown woman. It’s not my job to police who you have sex with. If you want to be in a relationship with Yoongi, that is none of my business. We’re all grown men. We can deal.”
“I don’t want to be in a relationship with Yoongi. I just want to fuck him.”
Namjoon is shocked. “Oh, well, okay. That’s fine too. We can restrain ourselves.”
“I want to fuck you too.”
“You do?”
“God yes.”
He kisses you. 
“Fuck, wait. I do actually have to report this if we’re going to do this.” 
“What do you have to tell them?”
“Just that we’ve entered into a consensual sexual relationship.” His hair is all mussed from where you ran your hands through it. “There’s some paperwork you’d have to sign.”
You think of Jimin and Yoongi. “Would we have to be exclusive?”
“No, not if you didn’t want to.”
“Would you want me to?”
“That’s not my call.”
“Would you have to tell them about any other crew members?” You cant have it reported back to Earth that you are skanking it up out here.
“You would still have to sign paperwork. But I could keep that paperwork internally.”
You smile and nod. “So, where’s the paperwork?”
“Umm, I have to request it.”
“Wait, so does that mean we can’t…”
“Yeah?” but he seems really unsure about that.
“Fuck.” 
He laughs.
“What if we didn’t take our clothes off?”
Dry humping, with a slow removal of clothes. Leads to fingering and oral sex.
“So now what?”
“Get me some paperwork.”
Version 3
“Hello officer,” he says. “Please come in.”
You come in, nervous. 
“Take a seat.” He commands. It’s the only chair. It feels like an interrogation as he leans against the wall of his office. You sit down.
“What is the nature of your relationship with Flight Engineer Min Yoongi?”
“Why do you ask?” You aren’t sure how to play this right now. 
“I just need you to answer the question, officer.” 
God, your commander was terrifying sometimes. His fingers were clasped in front of his face. Face impassive. 
“We are colleagues,” you answer.  It is the truth, just with some facts omitted. 
Namjoon raises a disbelieving eyebrow. “And what is your relationship with Mission Specialist Park?”
Oh god. He’s watched it. He not only knows that it exists but he’s seen it. He heard you admit to wanting to fuck the whole crew. 
“The same.” You bite your lip in shame. You will not cry. “We are colleagues.”
“Has any member of this crew threatened you?”
“No.” It’s an unexpected question.
“Has any member of this crew coerced you?”
“No.”
“Bribed you?”
“No.” 
“Asked you to do anything you didn’t want to do?”
“No.”
Namjoon sighs. “Okay, then. That’s a relief.” 
“A relief?”
“Yes, I needed to make sure everything was consentual.”
“That’s it?”
“Well, I could lecture you about how our scientific equipment shouldn’t be used for making porn if you like. But I think you already know that.”
“Yes, sir.” God, its so embarssing. 
“You’re sure nothing coercive happened? I will be speaking to Engineer Min later. If he’s harrassing you, you can tell me.”
You are worried about Yoongi. It was your fault he was in this mess in the first place. 
“”No, it was my idea actually. I asked Yoongi to help me.”
“Your idea?” Your commander laughs. “Well that’s unexpected.”
“I’m so sorry commander. I tried to delete it. I never meant for anyone to see it.”
“Why would you film it then? You weren’t intending it for Jimin? What exactly is the specialist’s role in all this?”
“Jimin didn’t know about it.” God, you have no explanation. 
Namjoon takes pity on you. 
“Look, it’s okay. If you want to be having sex with Yoongi or Jimin or whatever, that’s fine.”
“It is?”
“I mean, you need to immediately stop using government equipment to do so. But yeah. You’re all grown adults with sexual needs. It gets lonely up here. It makes sense that you would feel attraction. As long as everything’s consentual…
“But the ICSE?”
“-is not in charge of our personal lives.”
“You don’t think it would cause problems with the crew? Jealousy?”
“We are all grown men. We can deal with it. You and Yoongi get extra bathroom duty for two weeks for misuse of equipment. Jungkook get one week of extra air filter work for not reporting their discovery to me immediately. Taehyung and Jimin get a month of extra night shifts for fighting.
“Oh.” It seems so anticlimatic.
“Look, what I can’t have is secrets. I need to know everything happening on my ship. If you are in a relationship with any of the crew I need to know. Everyone needs to know. I can’t have crew members brawling over secret elicit videos. It has to be out in the open. That’s for your protection as well as everyone else’s.”
“Yes, sir.”
“So are you in a relationship with Yoongi?”
“No.”
“Do you want to be?”
“Um, no not really.”  Pause. “I just want to fuck him.”
Namjoon snorts. 
“Well,” he laughs. “That’s okay too. Again, as long as everyone’s up front about it.”
“Everyone?”
“The whole crew needs to have the same information.”
You laugh. “That will make for an interesting group meeting. Hello crew of the Minos, just wanted to let you know that I would like to have sex with all of you.”
“Wait what?” Namjoon is surprised. “All of us?”
Shit. Did he not know that?
“Didn’t you watch the video?”
“I did, I mean, only the beginning. I turned it off once I figured out what it was.”
“What about having no secrets?”
“Well, um, it was getting difficult to remain objective.” He grabs his crotch to adjust himself and your mouth beings watering. He had just handed a starving person a ticket to the buffet and he was looking like a whole meal. 
“I think you should watch the rest of the video. If you want to, commander.”
He swallows. “Now?”
“No secrets right?”

Hybrids!Yeojin and Hyejoo not getting along very well, Sooyoung and Haseul having to try to find a way to help them tolerate eachother.
this is my first time writing hybrids, i hope you enjoy :) this kind of takes place in an au where everuone lives in a big house and the younger members are in college (my idea of hybrids is a lil different if anyone wants to hear my hcs)
hyejoo is a wolf. a lone wolf one might say. sooyoung tells her that she made that nickname up for herself, and she might not be wrong but still, hyejoo doesn’t like many people. she tolerates pretty much everyone in their house because she has to, and sooyoung says that if she would stop being so cranky all the time then she would even find she likes most of them. maybe she could be right. however, there is one person in this house - a kitten named yeojin - that hyejoo really cannot stand. she’s younger than hyejoo, and she is just so loud. aren’t cats supposed to be quiet and solitary? hyejoo really wishes that yeojin was.
instead, yeojin likes to follow the wolf around, grabbing at her tail, yelling, knocking things over, and just being an all around nuisance. she insists to haseul (her primary guardian) that she just wants to play with her, and of course who could resist such an “innocent little kitty”. as soon as haseul turns her back, yeojin is whipping her head over to hyejoo, sweet smile gone and an evil grin in its place. ok maybe not evil but it’s definitely not completely innocent. haseul of course sees more than the hybrids think, she just keeps hoping that they can figure it out on their own. however it seems that hyejoo has finally decided to fight back, seeing as she is holding the kitten’s left slipper way above her head with a bored expression on her face all while yeojin screams and tries to climb the much taller hybrid’s body.
now here they were, haseul and sooyoung that is, sitting together trying to figure out a way to get their respective petty children hybrids to tolerate each other without driving anyone insane. the two have really gone through any possible options, but these two particular hybrids have very little in common. they (haseul) decide that no one can resist a little bit of baking, so they each call in their hybrids. they don’t know if they should be surprised when hyejoo walks in being closely followed by a certain kitten.
“unnies, yeojin won’t let me do my homework she keeps trying to grab it. she even put a hole in my paper, look!”
haseul looks over at yeojin to see if she has anything to say, but her mischievous little friend is just grinning at her like nothing happened, tail slowly flicking behind her. with a sigh, haseul turns to sooyoung nodding for her to take it away.
“alright you two,” she starts “we have a little group project to do right now. we are going to bake some cupcakes! yay!” sooyoung is using her excited voice but it’s pretty obvious she is dreading this as much as the two hybrids. before hyejoo can start protesting, sooyoung interrupts telling her she can finish her homework later. seeing as she usually makes hyejoo do it right away, the wolf decides she might as well do what she’s asking.
yeojin is excited, because she already loves to bake with haseul. as soon as sooyoung says what they will be doing, her ears flick around and a big smile - an actual smile not an evil grin - comes onto her face.
hyejoo pretty much just watches the whole time. the two older humans try to get her involved, but she is too worried about getting flour all over her beautiful black ears and tail. (maybe she is the real cat here)
yeojin is actuallybhelping though, getting out all the ingredients and cracking the eggs. when they are getting ready to mix everything together, sooyoung insists that she do it because she never gets to bake. as soon at she turns on the electric mixer, a cloud of the dry ingredients fly up into her face. yeojin stares in shock as one of her more stoic unnies tries to blow some of yhe flour off of her face. then, a giggle. not from yeojin but from hyejoo. sooyoung looked over at the wolf to scold her when she hears another laugh - this time from yeojin. the human freezes for a second, expecting hyejoo to snap or accuse yeojin of copying her, but the two just laugh at her. her eyes drift over towards haseul who has her own eyes wide open in shock as she watches the two hybrids grab each other’s arms as they laugh at sooyoung.
“i think we might have found something they have in common,” haseul whispers “they’re making fun of you.”
sooyoung shoots daggers at haseul
“do not even think of using this to make them friends, i am not going to keep humiliating myself just to make them laugh! we can find somethin-“ sooyoung stops speaking at the sound of a camera shutter. she is absolutely going to take hyejoo’s phone away. she is about to turn around and yell at her when haseul grabs her arm and hands her a paper towel.
“let them be, i think they are going to exchange numbers so she can send yeojin that picture!!”
“yes, and? why should that stop me from deleting it?” sooyoung grumbles as she wipes off the flour from her face. haseul just slaps her arm. as she watches the two sitting on the couch together, leaning their heads over hyejoo’s phone
“they are finally interacting in a normal way! at least for them i guess. if that comes with a little embarassment on your part then so be it” she finishes with a smile
sooyoung does have to admit, the two already seem to be getting along better. from the way they are both giggling on the couch, she is sure hyejoo is showing yeojin the plethora of embarrassing pictures she has of all the unnies. she just sighs and turns to make her way to the shower, catching a picture of hyunjin with an entire bread roll stuffed in her mouth on hyejoo’s phone.
at least it’s not just me

Riley had been pacing back and forth in front of Drake’s office for over ten minutes. She knew he wouldn’t like the idea, he would definitely hate it. She knew it and she didn’t even want to tell him anything. But the day had finally come and he would find out sooner or later. Taking one last deep breath, she knocked on the door and heard “come in,” from inside.
“Hey,” Drake smiled seeing her in the doorway. She closed the door and in a second he was right next to her, planting a kiss on her lips.
“Whoaa, getting bold I see. Not afraid someone will catch us?” she teased and he laughed.
“No, my office is completely safe from prying eyes.”
She wanted to say something back, tease him more but the realization of what she had to tell him ruined the mood. He noticed the change on her face and looked so tenderly into her eyes that she almost broke down right in front of him.
“Hey... is something wrong?” Drake asked concerned, gently rubbing her cheek with his thumb.
“I might have done something stupid. No... not stupid, but you will think it’s stupid...”
“I’m getting nervous, what did you do?”
“I...asked a private detective to come here and help us with this whole Cordonia situation. To help us uncover Justin’s scheme and prove you innocent.”
His jaw dropped. Without looking at her, he went back to his desk and sat on his chair, his back facing Riley.
“And umm... he’s coming today. Actually, I just got a message from Nadia that they’re almost here but they made a pit stop because Amy, Nadia’s cousin wanted some fries.”
He turned to her immediately, confusion and anger written on his face. “Nadia is coming? And her cousin? With the detective? What the--”
“Damien is a really good friend of Nadia and Amy. And we haven’t seen each other in so long so she wanted to come too,” she explained sheepishly.
Drake stood up and straightened himself. “So let me get this straight. You contacted a detective, without consulting me, told him my story, without my permission, and let him solve a case that is none of your damn business?”
“I--” she stuttered in surpirse. She knew Drake wouldn’t like it but she didn’t expect him to be so mad.
“I think you should go now, Brooks.”
“Drake...”
“Do I need to call security?”
“If it as effective as in Cordonia then I’m not really afraid,” she shrugged but quickly recomposed herself. “Drake, please, talk to him. They can help us!”
“Go. Away.”
“Drake... I’m sorry I did it without talking to you first but I knew you would’ve said no and I think that’s our chance to--”
“Our chance to what? To get killed? And kill your friends in the process? You know nothing, Riley. Nothing. You left everything and you never cared so stop pretending you do now!”
Feeling that the tears started welling up in her eyes, she quickly ran out of the office, staight to her room, where she waited for her friends to come.
~~~~
“SPENCER!!!” Nadia threw herself on Riley the second she opened the door. They almost fell on the floor but luckily, Riley managed to balance them.
“Sorry, sorry, I’m just so excited to see you!!” Nadia squealed with joy as she pulled her friend into yet another hug. Behind her,  Riley saw a man and a woman looking at each other and shrugging at the sight in front of them.
“Okay, so everyone, this is Spencer, errr, Riley, err, I mean, what do you want us to call you?”
“Whatever you prefer but Riley is fine,” Riley smiled nervously.
“Okay, so this is Ri, Ri, this is Amy, my cousin,” she gestured a tall woman with a beautiful purple ombre hair. Riley wanted to shake her hand but Amy pulled in a hug too.
“And this is Damien Elvis Nazario, the greatest PI known to the humanity, a gentle soul with some grumpiness inside, fantastic friend and--”
“Okay Nadia, that’s enough,” the man in brown jacket interrupted her, “I’m Damien, the detective.” He extended his hand to her and she shook it.
“It’s so nice to meet you all, take a seat,” she let them in and closed the door. While Amy and Damien took their seats, Nadia stayed behind.
“Where’s Drake? Aren’t we investigating his case?” she asked making sure no one could hear them. Riley sighed.
“We got into a fight when I told him you guys were coming. He thought it was too dangerous and it was a stupid idea.”
“What? Do you want me to talk to him?”
“No,” Riley chuckled, “I will later. We have a case to solve now.”
When they joined the rest, Damien took out his laptop and notebook.
“Okay, so from what I’ve gathered, Drake is assumed to have killed Liam, the King, right? And Drake would never do that, correct?”
“Of course he wouldn’t!” Riley raised her voice.
“I just needed to ask. I believe in facts, not in what people say. Drake left a day after Liam’s assasination because Liam���s bodyguard told him he is suspected, right? How are we sure it wasn’t a suicide?”
“Liam would never! He was a mess at that time but he loved that country! He would do everything to protect it!” Riley started having doubts. Maybe Drake was right after all...
“We can’t cross this possibily off yet. But back to Cordonia. After Drake left, Justin turned out to be Anton and a decree that in case of King’s death, he becomes a King, was found? Why did Anton changed his name then?”
“Apparently because he didn’t care about the crown and wanted to find a regular job. And after the decree was found he decided he’ll sacrifice his freedom and will become the King to all Cordonians.” Riley shrugged. “But I don’t believe that. I know he did all of this.”
“And who found Liam dead?” 
“I don’t know that. I think a guard that informed Bastien straight away.”
“And Liam’s funeral?”
“Was a private ceremony, however, the television was there when they put the coffin in the crypt. Justin told then he was after Drake for killing the King.”
“Hmm, okay. And everyone willingly believed that King’s best friend would do that?”
She shrugged, “I don’t know, probably not but Justin was my press secretary, he can manipulate everyone into thinking what he wants them to think.”
“So, Drake has fled. Liam was killed. Olivia is missing. How convinient. Where’s Hana and Maxwell though?”
“I think they’re hiding. Drake never called them cause it would be to dangerous so we don’t know for sure.”
“I tried to do some googling,” Amy interjected, “but Cordonia seems like a paradise and everyone loves the King. I once found a negative comment but it was deleted within a day.”
“Of course. Anton controls the Internet in Cordonia as well. Which is weird considering he claims he became a King fairly.” Damien noted something in the file.
“Cause he didn’t. And everyone knows that but they’re probably too afraid to say anything.”
“Give a me second to go through everything again and we’ll figure our next move,” Damien said while flipping through the pages of his notebook and comparing something on his laptop.
“I love it when you’re in your detective mode,” Amy teased him and Riley could see Damien’s blushed cheeks. Ah these two are so clearly in love... Makes me miss Drake even more. I wish he--
A sudden knock on the door startled her as she walked to the door and opened it.
“I thought about what you said,” Drake started slowly, “and I think we might give it a try. If we’re careful.”
In response, Riley quickly pulled in a hug and kissed him passionately. When they parted, Drake broke into a grin and Riley finally felt she could breathe again.
“I’m sorry I yelled at you, Riley. I was shocked but I’m glad you still care. Forgive me?”
“I already did, Drake,” she kissed him again and took his hand, leading him into the living room.
“Everyone, this is Drake, Drake this is Nadia, Amy and Damien.”
Drake shook everyone’s hand, dodging Nadia’s hug.
“Nice to meet you, Drake. I’ve heard a lot about you and I hope together we can solve that mystery,” Damien smiled lighly but Drake only rolled his eyes.
“I would say likewise but I’m not a liar.”
“Drake!” Riley nudged him, suddenly embarassed by his bluntness.
“It’s okay, I’m used to diffucult cliens thinking they know it all.”
“Damien!” This time Amy scolded Damien.
“Okaaay, let’s sit down and see what we’ve got. D? Did you figure out our next step?” Nadia asked, desperatly trying to lighten up the mood.
“I’ve gathered a lot of information thanks to Riley but we can’t do much by being here,” Damien sighed and Drake snorted.
“Well, that didn’t help. Don’t expect a tip.”
“Drake! Let him finish,” Riley turned to Damien. “So what do you suggest?”
“Well... I need to collect more evidence which means... we’re going to Cordonia.”

I Hate You, Kim Taehyung! (Taehyung x You ONESHOT)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: I hope this still turns out into what all of you wanted since its many similar requests jumbled into one. Hehe. And as for the last two anon, I dont know if this can be considered as badboy Tae but I hope it works and I think all my Tae's fics has a touch of angst in it but mostly all of it has a happy ending. So I hope you will still like this ♡♡
A/N : And also, I’m trying a new thing here. if anyone here like my stories and want to give some support, why not buy me a coffee? ☕💜
MASTERLIST
"I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, I hate you Kim Taehyung!" Y/N screamed out as loud as she can as she sat sprawled down on the floor with seven years of costumes strewn all over her. She can shout as loud as she can and no one would say anything, seeing how its almost 4 am and she is the only one left in the building. Of course, her late night over time is thanks to none other than the charming Kim Taehyung.
When she first got offered the job as the junior stylist for BTS, she thought luck has finally shined down on her. That her days of making one cup of instant noodle last for the whole day is long gone. Little did she know that by accepting this job, she is cashing in a one way ticket to hell. A hell that is ruled by a handsome devil known as Kim Taehyung.
Well, not that she thinks he's handsome, but he is obviously not bad looking. He didnt win the most handsome face in the world for two times in a row for nothing, right?
But what good is his face if all he ever do is pick on her? Its as if he has developed a personal dislike towards Y/N and Y/N alone. Y/N couldnt understand why everyone keeps on saying that the members are friendly and nice. Well, maybe the other six are, she wouldnt know since shes too scared, embarassed and shy to even look up to their attractive faces, but she can definitely say that Kim Taehyung is the opposite of nice and friendly.
Making sure that Y/N got into trouble every single day seems to be his life mission every since she was assigned as his personal stylist. And incredibly, he even do it in various creative ways too. Saying the material is itchy minutes before stage, when it was perfectly okay during dress rehearsal, which resulted to Y/N needing to whipped out a whole new outfit for him in no time at all, which of course, got her into trouble when the last minute clothes doesnt fit the concept or doesnt match the others, purposely broke a zipper and ripped a button, coming in late for fittings and so many other ways that Y/N cant even understand how he can even come up with it. If only he puts his creativity into making an album and not on ways to get her into trouble, Y/N is sure he will have about 10 solo albums by now.
Like today for instance, Taehyung said his pants for the Idol music shoot is ripped when he received it, resulting in him wearing black pants while the other members wear a matching head to toe suit. No matter how hard Y/N tries to defend herself, saying the pants are perfectly fine when she gave it to him, of course people would believe their darling Kim Taehyung rather than the inexperienced new junior stylist, which resulted in her being stuck in the wardrobe storage room, assigned to reorganized all seven years of BTS' stage costume, according to the month, year and members.  Thanks to the devil, Y/N missed her train to go back to her hometown, and she cant even afford to buy another one.  So here she is, alone in the wardrobe storage room, hanging up their costumes by dates, and all the while cursing Kim Taehyung.
/////
"Oh, how come you are ready early today Tae?" Hoseok looks up from his stylist who is fussing over his shirt to Taehyung who is already impeccably dress.
"I finally had a professional stylist helping me today," Taehyung huffed. "For once, I finally know what it feels like to be ready on time and not have a stylist that makes stupid petty mistakes,"
"No Y/N today?" Hoseok immediately gets what the younger man is babbling about. Its no secret between the seven of them that Taehyung has an issue with the new junior stylist. Taehyung might call it hate, but the other six boys sees something else blooming instead. They just hope Taehyung would see it soon too.
"Off to go back to her hometown or something. I dont really care," Taehyung answered, trying to be nonchalant, making Hoseok lets out a hearty laugh.
"Tae, you of all people know that she didnt make any mistakes. You were the one who purposely created those mistakes for her," Hoseok stated out. Taehyung gasps, pretending as if he is offended that his hyung would accused him of such a thing.
"I did no such thing!" He placed a hand on his chest. "And whose side are you on hyung? You are supposed to be on mine!" Taehyung glares as Hoseok's stylist finishes fussing over his outfit and walks away, not bothering to listen more of their quarrel.
"I'm on the side on love Tae," Hoseok mocks and laughs as he walks away towards the stage. "Loveeee,"
Taehyung huffed. Love? Him? Even worse, him and Y/N?! Not until hell freezes over. Even then, he is still sure it wouldnt happen. Okay, Taehyung is at least man enough to admit to himself, and definitely nobody else, that he did do it on purpose, making life hard for Y/N. But what he himself dont know is why.
Taehyung would like to think its because of hate. But he doesnt hate Y/N. He doesnt have a reason to. They barely exchanged a few words with each other. Annoying? Well maybe. But not in the term of her attitude or anything. It just bothers him how Y/N seems so unaffected working by his side. She didnt even spare him a glance or gave him a look that lingered too long. Hell, she didnt even talk to him unless its absolutely neccessary. It shouldnt bother him,really. He has millions other girls who would willingly be at his beck and call, but from the first moment he saw Y/N bowing excitedly to the managers on her first day, he has set his eyes on her. And it just annoys him to no end that she didnt seem fazed or interested in his presence at all. So annoyance slowly grew into something more and Taehyung is just sure that he hates her now.
At least he hope it is.
Taehyung, all clean and fresh from his shower packs up his bag from the practice room and trotted out of the building. Why is it their cheographer likes to schedule a dance practice after a music stage? Taehyung is exhausted, cranky and definitely hungry right now and all the other boys has went home first, not bothering to wait for him to shower. He picks up his bag and puts on his mask before making the short walk to his favorite restaurant near the company to get some take out and head back to the dorm. He asked his managers to let him be alone today. Sometimes a busy idol needs his personal time too and an evening walk to get some air sounds good to him right now.
He passed by a small street vendor selling tteokbokki along his way. The small shop has been there for years,even before any of them were trainees, and they have never been there again after they debuted and fame catch up with them. Taehyung miss going there but now he just doesnt have a reason to. He used to try to bring one of the girls he casually dated there, but she scrunched her nose and without feeling even a bit guilty or shame asks him "Shouldnt a successful idol like you bring me to 6 star restaurant or something?" Well, lets just say Taehyung did bring her to one of those pretentious restaurant that serves too expensive meals that evening. She was happy, and he was happy too when he spent the night tangling with her between her sheets later that night, and he was definitely happier when he told her it was over while he buttoned back up his shirt after hes done and make his way out of her house, never looking back.
He would usually just pass by, not because he is afraid the customers would recognized him. People who eat there usually dont even give him a glance. But something just caught his eyes today.
Is that Y/N?
What is she doing here? Shouldnt she be back in her hometown or something? Wait, not that he cares. Right? But just as if hes been pulled by a magnetic force, he walks into the small shop and take a seat at one of the back table, hidden. Taehyung reasons to himself that hes just hungry and its been a long time since he ate some street food anyway. Its just cravings. Coming here has nothing to do with Y/N. But why is he always looking at her table, well, he prefer to not think about that.
Nibbling on his rice cakes, his eyes never leaving hers. Watching as she ate and laughs at something shes doing on her phone. Is she texting someone? A boyfriend? A friend? Not that he cares, just a close observation. He watch her smile and talk to the shop owner and some of the old man who are regulars at the store. Shes sounds friendly, polite and it seems she knows how to talk to older people. Taehyung is certain that his eomma and appa would love her if he take her home.
Wait. Where did that thought came from? Taehyung shakes his head, deleting that horrible imagination. There is no way he is introducing her to anybody.
His body reacted automatically. Leaving a handful of won bills on the table and walked a few metres behind her as she said her goodbyes and leave the shop. His hatred for her must have turned him into a stalker, he told himself. He followed her closely and he found himself smiling as he watch her help an old man crossing a busy road. Its hard to find young girls who volunteerily do that nowadays. He saw her skipped along happily on her way to wherever it is shes going, giving a won bill to every beggar she sees. Its obvious she does this everyday as the old beggars seems to be familiar with her. Then she walks into a convenience store and take one cup noodle and a small packet of food,Taehyung cant be sure what. He hides himself between the shelves as she pays and saw how shes counting her shilings from her pocket, sighing.
He scrunched his nose. Doesnt the company pay her enough?
Still curious and becoming more fascinated by what Y/N could possibly be doing, he followed her again until she stops at a secluded part of a park and crouched down. What the hell is she doing now? Is she someone weird? What is she knows hes following her and shes some kind of a mass murderer thats just luring him in?  No way. He is too handsome to die. Y/N started to make a weird sound as in calling someone, or something, Taehyung cant be sure, breaking his horrible thoughts. a After a few minutes of making the strange sound, the bush rustles and a small dirty looking, buy certainly adorable dog came running out from the bush, tails wagging.
Y/N yelp happily when the dog jumped on her and patted its head lovingly.
"Taetae-ah, I'm here. I know I said I wont be here for a few days but I miss my train," she pouts at the dog, which oddly Taehyung found to be extremely cute. "That devil make me miss my train. Aish, I shouldnt have named u after that devil. You are too adorable. He is more of a dog than you ever will be,"
Taehyung chuckle to himself as he comes to a realization from what shes saying. Did she seriously named that stray dog after him? Furthermore, after his cute nickname? And the devil? Is that supposed to be him? She thinks of him as a devil? Is it weird he didnt feel angry at that? Worse, is it weird that he finds this whole thing cutely amusing?
"He purposely made me get punished again. Pd- nim was furious. He cut my allowance and made me come back at 6 am last night," she sighed and keep telling the dog her feelings while petting its head as the dog keeps eating the treat she gave him. "You are my only friend who will listen to me Taetae," Y/N sighed. "I dont have enough money to replace the ticket so I have to tell eomma I couldnt come back for her birthday and she sounded so upset. I hope she wont be mad at me for long. I'm sorry Taetae-ah, but this is all I could give you, I will work hard to earn more money so I can give you more delicious food," she smiles at the dog although it obviously couldnt understand her. "Lets just hope the devil wont make my allowance got cut anymore. Or worse,  get me fired," With that, she stands up and clean her bottom from dust and say goodbye to the dog, promising she will come again the next day.
Taehyung was both fascinated speechless. Fascinated by what he just sees. And speechless by what he just heard. Did he really caused all that?
/////
Things changed after that. Well, not so much since Taehyung still make Y/N's life a living hell. But he would usually excuse himself to get go back home without the boys and followed Y/N. She did the same routine everyday, apparently. Stops by the tteokbokki shop to say hello, which he notice she doesnt eat everyday at, which most probably caused by her lack of income, help the old man cross the road, give some food or change to the beggars, went to the convenience store to get a cup of noodles and dog food and feed Taetae the stray dog.
Its nothing interesting really, just the same thing every day but Taehyung keeps on following her. He actually had fun watching her. Because even after the hell he put her through at work, she will still smile happily and skipped her way down the road. She will then tell about her day to Taetae and as he hides hinself behid the big trees in the park, Taehyung cant help but feels like shes talking to him. Afterall, she did name the dog after him. That must have mean something.
"So thats the concept for this dance. I think you will do a great job in picking out their outfits," Jong Soo, the cheographer that just seems to hate Taehyung very much, always picking on him when Jin is obviously the one doing the wrong moves, tells Y/N. Well, more like flirting with her, with the sly smile and occassional arm touch, and the way he leans against the wall seductively, Taehyung feels like barfing.  It annoys him more that Y/N actually giggles as a respond.
Giggles!
As if what the man is saying is even funny!
"Yeah. Me and the other stylist unnie has some ideas. I just came here to see what exactly are the dance moves," she beams at him.
"You wont be working late tonight right?" Jong Soo gave her a flirtatious smile that makes Taehyung fumed.
"No. Dont worry," she giggles some more. "I'll be on time today,"
"Great. I'll pick you up at 8 alright?" Jong Soo winks and turns back to Hoseok and Jimin, discussing further on the cheography. Taehyung pull his ears, making sure he heard it right. Did Y/N just implied that those two are going out together tonight? Like on a date?! He smirks, an idea rapidly emerging in his head.
Sorry Jong Soo, but Y/N is going to be late tonight.
/////
"Do you know how expensive this is? This is Gucci! GUCCI! Does your simple minded mind even know what Gucci is?!" The senior stylist yelled out at Y/N, steaming with fury as she lifted up the suit jacket that has been quite obviously torn.
"B-but I didnt do it. It was perfectly fine when I put it on Taehyung," Y/N tried to defend herself using whatever courage she has left in front of her fuming supervisor, eyes already glassy with unshed tears. One more scream and Y/N is sure she will burst out crying. Her supervisor huffed.
"Its always wasnt you isnt it? Then whose fault it is? Taehyung?! Why would he ripped his own clothes? Explain to me then!"
"I-I..." Y/N blinked rapidly at the woman in front of her. How can she explained it to her? That Taehyung has an unexplained hatred towards her and he simply does it for his sick enjoyment in seeing her suffer? No one would ever believed it. Not when Kim Taehyung is giving them his big innocent puppy eyes look. Oh please, Y/N knew better. He can fool the others, but not her. She can see his devil horns and pitchfork anytime, that stupid monster from hell. "I really didnt do it..." Y/N mumble in a small voice.
"I dont know what to say Y/N. You have made the same mistakes countless times. Over and over again I gave you a chance. I thought the allowance cut and punishments are enough but apparently it doesnt. I have to report you to the PD. I'm sorry,"
"No please no unnie. I swear I didnt do it! And please. I'll make it right. I-I will come out with another outfit in time for the shoot. Please!" Y/N bowed and begged. If her supervisor report her to the PD, she will lose her job for sure.
"I'm sorry but this mistake is too severe Y/N. This is a sponsored Gucci suit for an advertisement endorsement that Taehyung has to shoot. Theres no such thing as coming out with a new outfit. We need to inform Gucci and apologized. The shoot will be delayed until they sent us a new suit. Do you even know how much trouble you are in?" She huffed. "Stay over at the company tonight and help the makeup artist's unnies to clean their makeup brushes and anything else they need help with, and I dont want to hear any complaints from you," She looks at Y/N before she could even say a word. She can say goodbye to her date with Jong Soo. "You should be lucky this is the only punishment for you and pray that the PD wont ask you to pay back for the ripped suit. I'm really sorry Y/N," her supervisor shot her a sympathetic glanced and walks out, leaving Y/N sniffling alone on the floor.
Y/N was not given anymore styling job for the next two days, only petty things like ironing the discarded clothes or organizing the boys' wardrobe after they are done using it. Y/N knows her days as a stylist at the company are numbered. She can feel it. And true enough, at the end of that second day, she was asked to pack her things and leave the company in 24 hours notice. Too tired to even argue anymore, Y/N nodded and packed her things, but not before stalking off in the practice's room direction where she is going to give Kim Taehyung a piece of her mind.
/////
Taehyung doesnt feel so good. He felt dizzy and extremely exhausted. He is not sure if its because of overworking or he is having a damn fever. He is alone in the practice room, trying to do a few more rounds of that one particular move that he just doesnt seem to get right. He needs to ace it before that bloody Jong Soo gets on his ass again. Trying to overcome his dizziness, Taehyung stand up and get into position, but before he can replay the music, Y/N stormed in.
He wanted to smile at the sight of her but quickly caught himself and puts on his cocky expression instead.
"What are you doing here? This is a practice room and last I check you are just a stylist and stylist dont belong here," he said smugly, not even looking at her direction. Y/N sent him a death glare that he can clearly felt on his back.
"Well, lucky for me that I'm no longer a stylist then,"
Taehyung felt his heart beats faster. What does she meant by that? Did she get fired? Did she quit? Whats going on? But instead of asking what his heart wanted to know, he pushed his curiosity aside and let his ego and pride takes over.
"Oh thank god. Thats good news!" He smirked, gesturing his hand in a grateful manner. "Just between us, you are not a very good stylist. You know, with the ripping and broken zipper and getting your artist late and what not,"
"All of that is not my fault and you know it!" Y/N screamed out. How can this man be so shameless and just pure evil? "I swear! One day people will know that its you who did it!"
"Really now? And who's going to tell all this people? You?" Taehyung lets out a loud sarcastic laugh. "You can try sweetheart but no one will ever believe you,"
"I just didnt think that you would be such an asshole!" Y/N yelled, tears already prickling her eyes.
"An asshole?" Taehyung scoffed and smirks at her. "What big words coming out from a pathethic little girl. I've been called way worse than that sweetheart," he looks at her with eyes full of disgust.
"And thats something to be proud of?" Its Y/N's turn to scoff. "To be called something worse? What kind of a man are you?!"
"A handsome, popular, most sought after one. Definitely better than someone like you," he smirks. "Got any problem with that?"
"What the hell is your problem? Do you even hear yourself right now?! I understand that maybe your conceited ego is blocking you to see the real world around you, but what is your problem with me?! What did I ever do to you to make you hate me so? Why do you feel the need to make my life suffer?" Y/N's chest is heaving up and down heavily from anger, angry tears are already rolling down her cheeks. Seeing her cry did something to Taehyung's heart, but right before he can even answer her, his severe dizziness took over and he fainted onto the groud.
Panic at the sight of the idol fainting in front of her, Y/N come to her senses and tries to get him back to conciousness but failed miserably. He is not dead right? And he is not dead because of her right? Y/N placed his fingers under her nose to checked if he is still breathing and felt relieved wjen his warm breath hits her fingers. She quickly helps him up and place his head on her lap and thats when she realized that his temperature is above the roof, indicating a high fever. After a few minutes of wiping his face with a wet cloth, Taehyung seem to stir but doesnt seem to be able to make out any coherent words. The building is already empty by now and Y/N doesnt know the number of any of the members or their managers. She doesnt even know where his dorm is located at and calling her supervisor is out of the question. They will just assume she did something to Taehyung, seeing how hard she tries to blame him the moment before she got fired. Y/N doesnt know what to do and she surely cant just leave him here to stay the night. So she did the only thing she can think of, take him back to her apartment.
/////
"Mhmm Y/N?" Taehyung stirred in his sleep after Y/N puts him in bed with a warm blanket over him. Y/N take a good look at his face. Is he dreaming? His eyes are closed but he called out her name didnt he?
"T-tae? Are you awake? Can you hear me? You have a high fever. But I'm going to help you alright,"
"Y/N mhhmm. Y/N, I'm sorry. I'm sorry Y/N," he keeps mumbling but Y/N cant be sure if she heard him correctly. "I am sorry for hurting you. Never meant to mhhm,"
"Shh Tae its okay. You need your rest alright," Y/N pulls the blanket up to his neck again and continue to put the wet cloth on his forehead, trying her best to ensure he fell asleep.
"L-love you,"
"W-what?" Y/N eyes widen. No way. Taehyung must really be out from his mind. He must think she is someone else. Yes, that must be it. Y/N tries to ignore it and continues to take care of him although her increasing heart beat never seem to be able to calm down. Especially when Taehyung repeated himself, loud and clear.
"I love you Y/N,"
/////
Y/N stayed up all night after Taehyung passed out, trying to nurse him back to health. She did everything she can to lower down his temperature and by the time the dawn breaks Y/N fell asleep in pure exhaustion at his bedside and Taehyung's fever has left him entirely.
Taehyung open his eyes slowly once the bright sunlight reached his eyes. As he blinks rapidly and trying to take in the room around him, he panics. Everything seems unfamiliar. Where is he? He quickly looks around and found Y/N curled in a ball on the floor beside the bed.
Y/N? What is she doing here? Why is she here? He cant remember anything that happened last night. The last thing he remembers is they were arguing in his practice room.
The sound of the bed rustling and Taehyung trying to get out of bed as fast as he can woke Y/N's exhausted form up from her uncomfortable sleep. With sleepy eyes she looks at Taehyung and flashed him a small, tired smile.
"Oh you are awake. How are you feeling?"
"Where am I?!" Taehyung glares at her. "Why are you here with me in this room!?"
Y/N was taken aback. His confession last night is still making her confused and anxious at the same time, and she had wanted to ask him about it today. She didnt think he would really love her, but maybe his confession means some kind of affection and they can atleast be friends now? But why is he back to the old Kim Taehyung? Could it be... that he doesnt remember?
"Y-you fainted last night. Due to a very high fever. So I-"
"Take me home to your house?"
"Y-yeah. I dont know what else to do," Y/N takes a step backwards, scared of his glaring eyes. Y/N knew she didnt do anything wrong. In fact, she should be furious that Taehyung is not down on his knees saying thanks right now but the man is so intimidating it scares her to the core.
"And you think I would believe that?" He scoffed. Y/N furrowed her brows. What is Taehyung saying? Wait.. he cant mean...
"You are not implying what I think you are implying, right Kim Taehyung?"
"If by that you mean I'm implying that you are taking advantage of me and my status by bringing me home to gain some kind of cheap publicity, then yes. Thats exactly what I'm implying!"
"I cant believe you!" Y/N yelled out, tears once again prickling her eyes. How can this conceited man even for one second think that about her? At that moment Taehyung's phone beeped at he scoffed as he scroll at the content of the message he just received.
"Yeah? You think I dont know how girls like you work?" He growls.
"Girls like me? What do you mean  y that?!"
"Your kind applied for a job at some entertainment company, then you will try to make one of us falls in love with you and when you dont succeed, you start to get creative and do this kind of shit. Right?"
"How do you even came up with all of this? What are you even talking about?!" Y/N is frustrated now. How can she get through that thick skull of his and make him see that she doesnt have any othe rintention than just helping him. Which seems to be a big mistake in from her part. She should have just left him in the practice room.
"You know exactly what I'm talking about!" Taehyung shoved his phone,  the message he just received shone in front of her face to be read. To her horror, its a snippet of an article that is clipped together with a photo of Y/N helping Taehyung up the stairs of her apartment. Apparently someone saw her last night, although she has tried to be extremely careful, and the rumors are already ciculating that she is his secret girlfriend.
"Congratulations, you got the publicity that you wanted! But trust me on this, I wont just stand idly by and let you get away with this. You will pay for this rumor," with that Taehyung walked out from the apartment, slamming the door shut, not once looking back.
Y/N finally found out what he meant by her paying for the rumor two days later when the company release an official statement. Taehyung finally commented that Y/N is definitely not his girlfriend and she is just some ex staff who got fired and took advantage of him by bringing him home in his unconcious state. Its a lie alright, but it doesnt sound so bad right? Well, maybe for someone normal. But when that kind of statement comes out from a world wide popular idol with a gazillion of girls protecting him, it became dangerous. Real dangerous. And Y/N  has no where and no one to protect her from the crazy fans chasing her for "attacking and taking advantage of their oppa".
After the first assault from his crazy fangirls that she encountered at the supermarket that leads to her to being pushed and scraped her knees to the point of heavy bleeding, Y/N decided to stay home as much as she can. But for how long can she stay that way? Especially with the craziness of his fangirls that doesnt seem to die down. Y/N have to go out and look for a new job. She needs to buy her groceries. She needs to live. So as an attempt to save herself, she make her way one more time to the company, trying to figure out what to say once she sees Taehyung and the PD. She will beg if she have to. She will do anything and promise to dissappear from the company and Taehyung's life, if they agree to help stop the torment of his fans on her life. But going to the company is a huge mistake on her part, because she forgot that there are always many fans that gathers in front of the building, hoping to atleast catch a glimpse of the boys and just one look at her, all of them rushes over, fuming and angry.
Y/N didnt have the chance to turn back and ran away. Hell, she didnt even have the chance to breathe before she was attacked..hair being pulled, body being beaten, scratched, scream at and clothes being ripped apart. Her face is swollen and sore, bleeding from places that she dont even know and she cant think straight anymore as her vision starts to blurred.
The last thing she remembered was being pushed to the middle of the road and something huge and black might have hit her and she felt pain. So much pain, before a voice that scarily sounds like Taehyung yelled out her name.
Maybe she truly has died and went to hell.
/////
"Arent these fans tired of waiting for us in front of the company?" Namjoon peeks his head through the tinted windows as their black van approaches the company. They are back after recording a music show and the boys are all exhausted and just cant wait to go back to the dorm and sleep. Their manager who is sitting besides him in the driver's seat chuckles.
"Well Joon, they are the one- what the hell is that?!" He stepped on the breaks out of the sudden, making all seven boys who are sleeping, with the exception of Namjoon, slammed forward in their seat.
"Ouch hyung! Whats happening?" Jungkook rubbed his head and yawns, looking around. "Are we back yet?"
"Shit hyung. D-did you hit a person? A fan?" Hoseok panics.
"Who the hell couldnt see a big van passing through and just crossed the road like that?!" Their manager panics too and starts opening the door to check. Jimin and Taehyung looks around from the window at the other fans who are gathered and smirking at the thing, or person, they still dont know for sure, thats lying on the streets in front of the van.
"Uh.. why do I get the feeling that whoever thats lying there is not an accident and is thrown in front of the van?" Jimin gulp nervously.
"What do you mean Chim? Did a sasseang do this?" Jin is curious, trying to peek his head. Namjoon who is still frozen at the front seat finally lean forward to see whats going on, hoping that its not a dead body thats hes going to see.
"Oh fuck,"
"What Joonie?" Yoongi asks curious.
"We did hit a person," Namjoon gulps. "Its that... that girl. I dont know her name. But its that stylist that Taehyung hate,"
"Y/N?!"
Without waiting and not caring if the fans will see and crowds him or not, Taehyung jumped out from the van.
"Y/N!"

"O-oww," Y/N tried to move her body but she cant. Everything hurts, and the blinding white light of the room is not helping at all. If this is heaven, its not as beautiful as people imagined it to be. And it smell like steriled tools and medicine.
"Dont move. It will hurt more,"
And the angel's voice sounds like Kim Taehyung. Maybe shes in hell and not heaven. Yes, thats definitely it.
"Where am I? Am I dead?" She asks. Taehyung chuckles at her cuteness.
"Fortunately you are not. You are in a hospital. Y/N.. you have been attacked by uh.. my.. uh fans..." Taehyung looks down in sadness and guilt. "D-do you remember any of it?"
"Y-yeah," she tries to nod but it hurts too much. "A little bit but what I can remember most is feeling pain. So much pain,"
"I'm sorry Y/N," Taehyung's voice is soft. Is he crying? The cocky, conceited Kim Taehyung is crying?
"W-why are you here Tae?"
Taehyung knows this is not an ideal situation but he cant help but feels happy when Y/N calls him Tae.
"I-uh, Y/N.. your leg is broken and one of your arms are broken too. You broke a rib, there are cuts all over your body and your face is destroyed which will take weeks to fully heal. I cant just leave you alone! We wanted to call your mother but we dont know her details. Can you give her number to me?" He explained to her softly. It kills him inside to see her like this. Broken. Emotionally and physically broken. All because of him.
"No! Uh.. please dont call her. I dont want her to worry," she begged.
"Alright Y/N. Then I wont call her. Which means you leave me no choice but to let me take care of you," Taehyumg grinned, making Y/N uncomfortable.
"M-must it be you? I can take care of myself. A-and can you transfer me to a normal hospital room? I cant afford this," she might not be able to move, but even from what she can see, this is a private VIP hospital room and she definitely cant afford that.
"First of all Y/N, its my fault that you are hurt. So I'm going to nurse you back to health, whether you like it or not. And second, dont worry about anything. I'll make sure you will received the best treatment and care there is. Alright? " he smiles warmly at her and Y/N has no more room to protest.
For the one whole time that Y/N is required to stay in the hospital, Taehyung never left her side.  He feeds her, helps her to go to the bathroom, talks to her, sing to her, read to her and makes her laugh. He did everything he could and Y/N sometimes couldnt  believe that this is the same Taehyung she knows from before. After two weeks, Y/N is finally allowed to go back home and of course, Taehyung asks his manager to send them to her house and he helps her settles in.
"I'm okay now Tae. Thanks for everything. You can go now," she bowed from her wheelchair and smile. Taehyung looks at her funny.
"Uh no?" He sits down on her couch and make himself comfortable. "Do you think I would leave you alone and helpless? I will be here everyday at early morning when you wake up and only leave when you are sound asleep. Until you are capable of doing things on your own, thats what I'm going to do. And no, you cant protest," he grins before Y/N could have said anything.
So that is what exactly Taehyumg did for the next two months. He came in early in the morning with breakfast in hand, using the spare key he shamelessly made for himself. Feeds her, helps her washed up, clean her house, did her laundry, buying her groceries, cook, which he is very bad at, reads to her and just talking to her, making her laugh all day. Y/N has started to get used to his presence now and learned that, when he wants to be, he is actually nice and fun to be around. Hes funny, entertaining, smart and sweet all rolled into one. If only it didnt take all this for him to show her his true colors.
As he spent more days with Y/N, Taehyung realized that the feelings he has for her is definitely not hate. He still doesmt know what it is, but definitely, definitely not hate. He loves spending time with her. All the little quirks he learns about her is making him more interested in her, and the best part of his day now, other than spending time with Y/N of course, is doing her chores of helping the same old man he saw before cross the road, drop one won bill each to the beggars and feeds Taetae, which Y/N accidentally told the name of the dog to him with a hard blush. It amazes him how even in her condition,she stills wants to help others. She still wants to buy the dog food and give the beggars whatever change she has although she herself has little to none. Taehyung has never known anyone like her, and every single day his heart blooms just from seeing her face or even hearing her name.
He realized now. Hoseok was right. He is in love. He is in love with Y/N. But he realized it too late because Y/N is finally capable of standing up and walking, although still toddling, and told him that he doesnt need to come by anymore.
Y/N doesnt need him anymore.
/////
"What are you doing here Taehyung?" Y/N looks at him weirdly as she opens the door to see Kim Taehyung standing nervously at the door, holding a bouquet of flowers tight in his grasp. "Did you forget that you dont need to come anymore?" She smiles. He has been coming over for more than two months now. Maybe he forgot that he doesnt need to come anymore. "You dont have to come anymore Tae. Thanks for everything Taehyung. I guess I'll see you when I see you okay?" She bowed and starts to close the door and Taehyung quickly pushed the door back open, surprising her.
"Do you need anything?" She looks at him, brows furrowed. Taehyung looks at her face. Her pretty, pretty face. How can he not notice it before? After taking a nervous gulp he opens his mouth.
"Y-you,"
"Excuse me?"
"Y-you. You Y/N. You asked me if I need anything and I know the answer to that now. I need you. You are the missing piece that I need in my life," he fiddled with the stem of the flowers he is holding.
"Huh?" Y/N looks at him with a confused face before it turns into a smile. "Ahh, you are making fun of me again. One last time?" She giggles. "Good one Taehyung. But you should have gone with something else. I would never believe you will like me but nice try though," she nods and push the door close again but Taehyung kept it open with his strength and pushed himself inside.
"I-I know its going to be hard to believe. I-I mean I wouldnt believe me either if I were you. But I'm serious Y/N. I'm dead serious. I-I want to try with you," he stuttered his words out.
"Try? Try what? What do you mean?"
"T-try to be your boyfriend,"
"B-boyfriend?" Y/N's eyes turns wide. "You should stop it Taehyung. I already know this is a joke Its not funny anymore," her face turns into despair and Taehyung panics when he sees her eyes are starting to get wet.
"I'm not kidding!" He placed down the flowers and held both of her hand in his, clasping it tight. "I knew now why I was so mean to you before. Why I make your life a living hell. No, not now. I have known it for quite some time but I'm just too stupid, cocky and conceited to admit to it," he peeks into her eyes. "Y/N, you have captured my eyes, and heart, the moment we first met way back and I was too over my head to accept the fact that you are unfazed by me. I got angry, and then I got jealous at how you can seem to live your life normally and happily without me. So, I start acting mean to you. I need to be on your mind, in your life. In any way that I can, even if its in a bad way. I did all that so that you will always remember me. In some ways it did work, you did think of me all the time, but in a bad, bad way,"
Y/N is speechless.
"I know its stupid. Idiotic. Childish at its best. But Y/N, after everything we have been through and after all the opportunities you gave me so I can get to know you, I am not afraid anymore. I realized I should have just come forward and said it. I should have try to win your heart by treating you the way you deserve, like a queen. I'm sorry Y/N,"
"I-I..."
"Its okay. You dont have to decide now. But please, please dont kick me out from your life. Let me be with you. Y/N... I love you," Taehyung finally have the courage to say how he really feels.
The air was filled with silence for a few moment, Taehyung nervously gulped as he waits for her reply. After a long excuriating wait, Y/N finally answers.
"N-no. This cant be true. You hated me! A-and I hated you!" Y/N took a step back from him and Taehyung smiles. From her answers he can already tell that he has managed to penetrate through her heart. He takes a step forward to her and gave her his signature smile.
"You dont hate me Y/N,"
"I-I do. I really hate you. You put me through hell! I hate you Kim Taehyung!"
"Do you really?" He cocked his head and grins. "It doesnt matter, because Y/N. I love you,"
"I-I,"
"I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you and I love you L/N Y/N,"he smiles. "And I will do whatever it takes to make it right again. To make you believe me,"
"Y-you are not lying Tae?"
"Y/N... I cant stop thinking about you. Your face is all I can see when I close my eyes. Your voice is all I can hear. Just being near you makes me happy. Heck, just hearing your name is enough to make my day. I will give up everything for you. I will take care of you. I will help you get back your job. I will make sure you no longer have to eat only cup noodles. I will buy you all the tickets you need to go back home and see your mother. I would even drive you there Y/N. I will even introduce you to my parents. And lets adopt Taetae for real. He can be friends with Yeontan. Would I do all these if I'm not really in love with you Y/N?"
"Tae..." Y/N sniffles, a smile finally grazing her lips.
"So..." Taehyung hold her hands and rub the back with his thumbs. "Do you still hate me now?"
"People might say I'm stupid... but I... I love you Taehyung," she grins, and Taehyung was taken by surprise. Is this for real? D-did she confessed? "I have love you since we first met but I knew there is no way you would go for me. So I pushed it aside,"
"No!" Taehyung panics. "Uh I mean please dont. Dont push your feelings away. Please. I'm here now. I'm here to give you all my love Y/N. I promise. I promise you will be the happiest woman in the world," he takes her hand that he is still holding and kissed it. "Thank you Y/N. And we can go as slow as you want. As long as I still get to be by your side,"
Y/N nods. Her smile too big to be concealed anymore.
"Yeah. Lets do that. Lets rebuild back our relationship," her eyes looks at him lovingly. "And you dont have to do anything Taehyung. Hearing you say you love me? I'm already the happiest woman in the world,"
"Then, I will make you happy every single day. I love you L/N Y/N. So so much," he leans in close and cups her chin. "M-may I? Kiss you?"
Y/N nodded shyly.
And nothing could ever describe the feeling she felt when Taehyung finally touched his lips with hers. She fell in love with the devil, and it feels like heaven.
