until my lips turn blue — jeon wonwoo

a/n: thank you to @etherealyoungk for inspiring the confidence and motivation i needed for this! and thank u to @pusoatbuwan for being the best thank u bestie :) i hope you all like it !!

word count: 6.8k

content: fem!reader, mafia au, non idol au, mafia boss!reader, hacker!wonwoo, seungcheol is a bit of a dick i’m so sorry this is not representative of him irl, bestie mingyu, random monsta x kihyun cameo bc i needed a random idol lol, angst, mentions of food, murder, weapons, and drugs to varying degrees.

summary: to thank you for your gracious efforts in tracking down an attacker, seventeen offers to repay your favor. you ask for a date with the cute one with glasses.

“so,” you say, gazing at the fresh scar on seungcheol’s cheek. it hasn’t had a chance or any time to fade yet and you can tell by the fire in the eyes of his men that this was recent, “what happened?”

it’s hard to remember how you exactly got wrapped up in this mess. seungcheol ‘invited’ you over to discuss a certain issue, something vague like ‘internal matters’, but it felt off from the get-go. something was wrong.

and, clearly, you can tell something is wrong now.

he heaves out a sigh, letting his head fall into his hands before pushing his hair out of his face, “i don’t even know,” he says, “all i know is that my underboss in currently in the hospital, lying to every single medical personnel about why he has stab wounds on his thigh.”

your eyes wander around the room and they find a picture of seungcheol with another person, smiling like they were friends. you’d learn later that was him. yoon jeonghan. the underboss.

there’s 11 other people in this room besides you and seungcheol, which adds up in relation to your current knowledge of seventeen’s higher-ups. contrary to the name, there's 13 of them that are considered the most important to the seventeen organization, including their boss.

Seungcheol eyes burn into you, but you hold your ground, “well, that is unfortunate. i do send him my best regards, and i hope he recovers well and quickly, but i suppose…” you look around at all of the others, as if to calculate in your head the best move, “i don’t know what it is you want from me.”

“if i may be blunt,” he says as a proposition, but it’s more like a question. you nod, “i don’t know either,” he admits, “i don’t know what i expect you to be able to do, much less be willing to do. what i do know though, is that you have a reputation of being able to track people down like a hawk.”

you don’t acknowledge the compliment. he shifts, almost uncomfortably.

“all i am currently requesting is your assistance in finding the one who attacked us. should you help us, we will compensate you in whatever means you see fit,” he says almost desperately, you can’t see it in his face but you feel it, “i want revenge. i need your help to get it.”

“you’ll make sure i get something out of it?”

he sighs, “i’ll see to it that you get whatever you want out of this.”

“what do you know?” when you ask, one of the 11 other men steps up, handing a folder to you.

he doesn’t bother introducing himself, but you know of him. he’s incredibly well known for being able to gather information. he probably knows the street you grew up on and the color of your socks right now off the top of his head. his name is joshua, you remember. you’ve heard someone call his name before.

“these are stills from the security footages of the compound. this here—” he points to a spot on the first paper in the folder, “— is our guy. right here, he gets into a car. i ran the license plate, and it’s registered this individual here.” he points again, this time to a mugshot in the next page. there’s a list of charged and convicted crimes next to the picture, “but i don’t think they’re the same person. they have different builds.”

you agree, soon focusing on the name of the individual the car belonged to, “i know this man.”

seungcheol perks up at the good news, “you do? from where?”

“he’s the director of financial operations at a company an associate of mine owns. he’s very powerful, but he’s also had accusations of corruption and funding violence for years,” you say, “he responds to me directly, actually. it shouldn’t be too hard to get the info out of him.”

“well then,” seunghcheol says, “my men will assist you in any way required for the operation. feel free to ask for their assistance,” and with that, he leaves the conference room.

“is there anything required of any of us for you to investigate, miss?” one of them says after a moment. he’s tall, has too pretty a face for this kind of business. he kinda looks like a puppy.

“no, i should be able to go from here,” you make eye contact with another one. he’s wearing glasses, the thin frames complimenting his face well. he doesn’t acknowledge you more than just the brief eye contact, looking away as soon as it happens, “i’ll call the director now.”

“go right ahead,” joshua says, and you pull your phone out and call him, putting it on speaker.

the phone rings several times. there’s an unplaced tension in the room, and you’re not sure who exactly here is bubbling with anger, but you reconcile it with the fact that these are not just associates. they’re friends. and their buddy is in the hospital.

right before the last ring ends before it’ll stop trying, he picks up.

“hello?” he says.

“director lee, hello, thank you for taking my call,” you say, feeling eyes on you from all over the room.

he responds, “ah yes, hello boss. it’s my pleasure. what can i do for you?”

“well, i was hoping you could inform me on something,” you say, relaxing more into the chair, “you see, i’ve been looking for an individual who was found driving your car last night in unknown territory. did you know about this?”

he pauses. you can tell it’s to come up with a lie on the spot, “no, in fact. i had just assumed my car was stolen. i was almost about to alert the police, but i’m sure you understand why i did not.”

“i understand, director. i need you to cooperate with me,” you say.

“yes, boss. what can I do for you?” he asks.

you take in a deep breath, saying, “for reasons i am unable to disclose, i believe this individual is after us. also, the most recent sighting of your car after it was found so far away is in our territory, at the diner down the street from headquarters,” you fake a pause to hopefully show some hesitancy. you were far too good at playing scared, “i am… nervous, director. this individual stole your car, could have obtained the weapons we keep near the peer, there’s no telling what they’re up to or who sent them.”

the all watch you make a dramatic voice as you play up any potential worries. that’s the only way he’ll talk.

“i understand, miss. may i speak openly?” his question makes them all look up, and you almost have to mute yourself to silence your victory.

“yes, director. tell me,” you say with a hidden smirk on your face.

he pauses, and you worry for a second that he’s going to chicken out, but he doesn’t, “i sent the individual. my car was never stolen.”

bingo.

you ask, “who is it?”

“i’ll send over the information after this call,” he says. there’s a smile on joshua’s face as you look up, both silently understanding the victory you just won, “i wanted to send a message to seventeen, but he must have been attacked because he sent me a voice recording shortly after coming into contact with one of the higher-ups. something about accidentally hurting one of them before he got a chance to say something.”

you ask, trying to prompt more out of him, “what were you trying to say to them?” you only ask because you know they’d want you to.

“i do not have the best relationship with their leader. the reason is unrelated to our purposes in our group. i apologize for stressing you, boss.”

you respond with a simple, “i see, thank you, director.”

“of course, miss, should i send you the information right away?” he asks.

“yes, as soon as possible. have a good day, director,” you say and hang up. you look up at them as your phone pings. you show the notification to joshua.

“that’s him,” he says, pulling out a still from his folder, matching them up side-by-side, “this is our guy.”

“i can find him, leave that to me,” you say, “as a favor to seventeen, i’ll take care of him. you will all owe me, though. both for that phone call and for getting my hands dirty.”

“don’t get cocky,” another one says. he’s short, but he’s got this energy that screams ‘fuck with me, i dare you’, “let me know when you get it done.” he hands you a piece of paper with a string of numbers on it. lee jihoon.

you smile, almost like a smirk, “okay.”

and out the room you go.

he’s dead by the morning. you tell jihoon, and get no response, he simply hangs up as soon as he gets the news.

—

the letter is addressed from all of seventeen, but based on the formality of word choice, none of them had a hand in writing it. it was probably written by some subordinate, but it gets a simple message across.

seventeen’s acknowledgement that you were owed a favor. the, in writing, paper that guaranteed you something in return. it felt like solid gold.

you spend some time thinking about what it is exactly that you would like from them. there’s not many limits. if you wanted someone dead, they’d have it done by sunset. if you want illegal weapons for your own plans, they would provide them easily. anything you want, they could do.

that was what was so nice about your relationship with seventeen: you may not get along as people, but you get along as business partners. there is no worry that you will be attacked in their headquarters, and vice versa.

but did you need illegal weapons? not really. your casino heist plans were being made smoothly, and there were not many materials you could have requested to make it any easier. you had access to everything you would need, and then some.

did you need anyone dead? not particularly right now. there’s nothing you need help with right now, aside from maybe needing help with throwing a surprise birthday party for your niece. that, though, was doable on its own.

and then, the idea dawns on you.

—

the letter you return back is, on the contrary, written by you. seungcheol knows it’s you, because he’s seen your handwriting. you state your pleasure with working with them. you thank them for their assistance, especially joshua’s, in finding the first piece of evidence.

the moment you are done with formalities, you don’t hesitate to describe, in extreme, excruciating detail, the favor you would like back from them.

‘a date with the cute one that wears glasses’

you ask for a date. you couldn’t remember his name at the time of writing, so you describe him as the ‘one with the glasses’. you describe exactly what you want: a fancy restaurant dinner, him dressed in a suit with styled hair away from his eyes and maybe some jewelry, definitely wearing his precious specs. you’d pay, he’d walk you to your car, and the second the door shut and you were being driven away, seventeen will have paid their favor back.

your letter even reads:

‘there are no ulterior motives. should the favor be paid back successfully, SEVENTEEN will not be bothered over this matter again. should the favor not be paid back in this way, an alternative favor will not be provided unless sufficient reason is given.”

seungcheol almost laughs when he sees the letter, as he’s the first to read it. he wonders if you’re even being serious. it’s probably the most ridiculous request he’s ever gotten, but he can’t come up with a single reason as to why you’d play a prank like this, so he comes to the conclusion that you’re most likely serious.

a copy of the letter is sent over to wonwoo, the one with the glasses, and he reads it probably fifty times. maybe fifty-one.

nothing has ever made him so embarrassed, that’s the issue. not a single mistake he’s ever made or being chastised for not being good enough at his job has had the same effect. he feels the way mingyu’s eyes bore into him, knowing that wonwoo told him all about how he thought you were pretty, and that if you weren’t 1) a boss and 2) literally terrifying to speak to, he’d be down bad.

he feels awkward and clumsy for sticking out, for being the one pushed into the spotlight. he doesn’t particularly want to be the center of attention, but here he is, in his boss’s office, surrounded by his closest associates. he feels weirdly small as he sinks into the chair.

“i know this is… unconventional, wonwoo,” seungcheol says to him, leaning against his desk, “but you need to do this. it’s only dinner and we can’t owe her for much longer.”

“i know,” he says.

seungcheol continues, “there isn’t much of a choice, as well, you know that right?”

wonwoo recognizes the fading scar on seungcheol’s cheek as seungcheol talks to him. he remembers the moment it happened.

this was more than just giving you what you wanted so you were even as groups, but about genuinely thanking you for such a deed. he remembers watching jeonghan get stabbed in the thigh to protect chan. he remembers all the blood, that horrified look on chan’s face. that guy must have known he was a dead man the second he hurt jeonghan, that could have been why he ran. seungcheol is protective of all of them, but especially him.

“i know, i’ll do it,” he says, “i’ll do whatever is required of me. you know that, boss.”

“i know you will, it’s just that…” seungcheol looks uneasy, shifting his eyes away, “i don’t want this to become a bigger thing. don’t develop feelings, don’t do anything to make her develop feelings. just don’t make this messy. and don’t make it my problem.”

“i won’t,” wonwoo is, even in the best case scenario, slightly overestimating himself. he knows that, yet he still lies (not exactly but that’s what it feels like) through his teeth, “this won't become a problem.”

“it better not, now go,” seungcheol orders, trying to make it sound harsh. it doesn’t, though, not to wonwoo. it sounds more like ‘don’t fuck this up for yourself’.

—

wonwoo reads your letter for the fifty-second time. this time, he’s closely checking your instructions on how you wanted him to dress. it’s a little bit weird, but he supposes you’re going somewhere fancy, and maybe he has to match.

he sighs dramatically, he doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing.

why is he dressing up in a suit he never wears to come meet you, a literal mob boss that thought he was cute, at some restaurant he doesn’t even know exists, to have dinner with you and play along to make you happy but not enough for either of you to get too attached?

what does he even think he’s doing?

he has literally killed people before, but that was so much simpler than this. slicing someone’s throat is so much less complicated than picking out a tie to wear to your date. everything down to asking him to wear a little bit of gold jewelry— gold, not silver— was complicated. he doesn’t understand this at all.

he’s somewhat horrified that this will go wrong, but if he thinks about it as only ‘a pretty girl asked him on a date’ and forgets all the context, he can breathe slower.

He leaves the compound with mingyu to act as a body guard, and then to sit at the bar area during your date to be there in case something happened. mingyu had told him he had no plans of interrupting anything in case the date goes a little too well, but he did want to be there in case something worse happened and wonwoo wasn’t able to fight on his own.

mingyu enters before him, actually. wonwoo waits by the entrance, just as your letter requests, and he almost wonders for a second if this was all just an elaborate ploy of yours, something just to waste time as you’re comfortably doing whatever mob boss stuff you normally do.

that is until you’re in front of him, in the most stunning sapphire dress he’s ever seen in his life, and he sees why you requested a navy suit on him. you both match perfectly, and he can help but blush like a freaking anime girl when you walk in together. you’re so breathtaking, the kind that could kill.

you had made reservations apparently, and all he could do is watch and follow along cluelessly as you’re taken to the table, and you both sit down.

you take in a breath, and then really look into his eyes. you don’t say anything for a moment, so he tries to start.

“hey,” he says, a little bit breathless, “you look gorgeous, by the way.”

“oh, you don’t have to flatter me, dear. that’s not required of you,” you laugh, and god, it is so beautiful. he could faint right now.

he forgot, honestly, that he didn’t have to impress you. he berated himself for a second when he realizes that he complimented you of his own volition, because he wanted to. that was bad.

“it’s okay, you don’t have to act so nervous. i don’t have any intentions to hurt you,” you say, reaching out for his hand. his hand tremors really had to come at the worst times. your hand is so warm (and he’s such a cold person, he could get used to warm hands holding his cold ones), “is this where you start wondering why i asked you to come on date with me?”

“i’ve been wondering since i read the letter,” he responds. he’s fidgeting, nervous. you have such an intense stare that’s hard to match.

“i’m sure you have,” you say, “if i’m being honest, it didn’t feel like there was much i wanted to ask for. everything is alright— knock on wood— for the moment with me. and i,” you pause, and it catches his attention even more, “i wanted something like this. something normal.”

“i take it… mafia life isn’t really for you, huh?” he half-asks.

“i suppose it’s not too bad of a fit, actually. i think the heists and gambling and money-laundering isn’t too bad. that kind of stuff has been my whole life, so it’s kinda fun to me,” you say, “but it prevents you from living simply. there is no family, there’s no relationships, no house on the hill. i feel like i’m missing out on that aspect of life.”

“yeah, you’re right. i suppose it is sad,” he says. he’s not sure what else to say.

you just continue, “and i just… i wanted to experience something different tonight. maybe i shouldn’t have involved you in my attempt to feel that, or at least didn’t force you to be here.”

“i’m not forced to be here,” he says, even if it’s honestly not very true, “i think i want to be here, too. i’ll experience it with you.”

you smile, and this time it’s softer than he’s ever seen. he can’t seem to remember why your presence was so intimidating before, because in this moment, you are nothing but warm and inviting, “okay, then. it’s settled. let’s have a beautiful night.”

it was cheesy, sure, but it made his heart flutter all the same.

he sees mingyu out of the corner of his eye. he’s sitting at the bar, making small talk with the bartender. wonwoo and mingyu make eye contact, and it’s almost like a series of questions: ‘how is it going? are you alright? do you need me to step in?��

and wonwoo gives a small smile back at him, as if to say ‘i think i’m okay’.

he looks back at you, as you give your order to the server. he doesn’t see someone evil or done anything that is commonplace for his and your kind of life. he just sees you: someone aching for something different. something soft and sweet and normal.

dinner with him flies by, filled with pretty conversations about each other’s lives. you both skirt around conversations about your groups, instead choosing to focus on yourselves. he learn about your hobbies and passions, you learn about his friends and what he likes to do in his free time.

you tell him about the time you were robbing a bank when you were younger. maybe 17. you tell him about the restaurant that’s a front for high-up associates that you used to go to when you were younger. you tell him about how your dad’s assasination put you in the boss spot when you were 19 and stupid and too young for that kind of power. it went to your head and has barely worn off since.

he tells you about how mingyu and him have saved each other’s asses maybe 500 times each. he tells you about how he likes computer games, that if he was given a second shot at life, he’d be a pro-gamer for sure. he tells you about his cat, ranting about how cute it is (and he looks adorable doing it).

wonwoo realizes what’s happening while it’s happening; he’s not dumb or oblivious. he realizes that with every smile, every laugh, every time you get passionate about what you’re talking about and make these dramatic hand movements, and every time you unconsciously make that cute thinking face, he’s falling for you more and more.

and yet he doesn’t have it in himself to pull back; instead, he chooses to lean in. he smiles when you smile, laughs when you laughs, plays along when you tell him overly dramatic stories. he’s so mesmerized that he doesn’t notice the passage of time, how late it’s getting.

what he does notice is you reaching to grab the bill that was dropped off by the server. he snatches it before you can, and quickly puts the money in, catching the server’s attention and asking them to take it now.

you make a upset face at him, but it doesn’t hurt him in the slightest, “my treat.” he says simply.

“i was supposed to pay! you didn’t have to do that!” you argue, and he looks at you with a kind of vulnerability that is so raw, it’s almost infuriating.

“i wanted to. for you.”

you stand, so he stands too. you turn to walk away, but he grasps your wrist at the last second. he thinks you’re about to storm off, mad or something. why were you mad at him? he was trying to do something nice for you!

it’s until you groan and turn back around, getting so so close to him that the rest of the word fades out of view. for a moment it’s just like that. there’s no one else in the world except for you and him.

you’re looking into his eyes, reaching your hand up to lightly cup his cheek, letting your finger drag against his jaw, “can i?” you ask. you don’t even need to say it.

“yeah,” he breathes, shakily, “do whatever you want.”

you kiss him while his stomach does somersaults. his hands find your waist, letting you lead, and, funnily enough, only once he starts to relax, you’re pulling away.

“we should get out of here,” you say, and his heart rate picks up, which you seem to notice (his own heart betrayed him), “we don’t have to do anything, but it’s so loud and energetic in here. i want some peace and quiet.”

he couldn’t agree more. you both walk outside, and he shoots mingyu one last ‘i’m okay’ look, seeing the smirk on his friend’s face may annoy him, but he’s too happy to care.

once you reach your car, you pull him close. his hands rest on the same spot as before, gently on your waist. you ask him, “can i kiss you again?”

“yes,” he whispers back. something about asking the second time feels sweeter, “kiss me a little harder this time, please.”

you smile at his request, gently pressing your lips to his before you grasp the back of his neck to use as leverage when your kiss becomes more intense, giving him what he wants. he’ll always get what he wants now, you suppose. anything he asks for, you’ll give him.

you don’t pull away as fast this time, instead letting him savor the moment.

but you eventually do, pulling back to look at him. he’s so pretty in the moonlight.

“i don’t want this to end,” he says. you smile almost sadly at him.

“i’m sorry, baby, i wish it didn’t have to end so soon, but our agreement was only dinner,” you say, “and you need to go back. our night together has been fun, but this is it. we were only given tonight.”

“i don’t want to go back yet, i don’t want to leave you,” he whispers painfully. god, it was so easy to get comfortable in his arms.

you see that sadness in his eyes, the kind that kills any chance of ever getting over him, “i know, i know, i’m sorry. i didn’t think we would get so close so fast,” you can feel the shaking of his hands even as they rest steady on your hips, “when i asked for a date, i thought it would be a night that would end with no hard feelings about never seeing each other again.”

“well, look where that got us,” he makes himself chuckle, though it’s not out of actual humor.

there’s a pause where neither of you dare to make the next move. there’s a sinking feeling that one of these next kisses will be the last.

“i’ll tell you what: i’ll kiss you until my lips turn blue, so you can never forget what it feels like. not even if you tried,” you say, moving your hands to his shoulders to steady yourself.

“okay,” he responds, “don’t let me forget. don’t ever let me.”

“you know i won’t,” you say, and your kisses are so passionate that for a second, he forgets that he’s jeon wonwoo, seventeen’s best hacker and technology expert, and only knows that he’s yours.

and for you, he’s so sweet, so kind and giving and reciprocative, kissing you back with just as much energy, it’s just as easy to get lost in him.

you stay there for as long as the night will allow, kissing him with feverish intensity, before you really have to send him on his way.

his eyes have that tragic look to them, like he’s sad in such a complicated way. it was never supposed to end like this, with him walking away from you as you get into your car, but the more he thinks about it, he’s wrong.

it was supposed to end like this. with him and you separated.

when he returns, he knows he probably shouldn’t, that he should lie and say it went well (but not too well) and this will not cause future problems, but he tells seungcheol afterwards that he 100% fucked this up for himself. he’s really, really into you.

his boss isn’t surprised.

—

it’s been two months— not exactly, maybe a month and three weeks or so, but close enough— since that night. not a word from seventeen, nor from wonwoo. it’s hard to not wonder what happened between him and his boss as soon as he returned, if he saw those feelings written out all over his associate’s face, or if it was the lipstick stain on his lips that gave it away.

in your world, nothing had changed (except for maybe everything about your soul). nothing about your mob boss life had been altered. seventeen never spoke a word about the favor, not to you or anyone else. even though word travels fast and very easily, it never got back to you that anyone besides you and seventeen knew about it.

maybe it’s a good thing that you haven’t seen or heard from him, that you probably never will again, but him having that much control over you is dangerous because you’re sure that seungcheol knows. he knows wonwoo likes you, he knows you like wonwoo, and everything in between. he has so much power that it’s incomprehensible what he could manipulate you into doing. he probably knows that. he revels in it.

so you made the point to not reach out, knowing there’d be a trade off next time. you assume that’s why it’s radio silence on his end too.

it only hurts a little bit.

—

the news hits you as you’re sitting in your office, drinking your coffee as an associate is detailing all possible back up plans for the casino heist planned for next week.

“hold on one minute,” you say to them, and they immediately shut up, letting you take a call that had come in as they were talking, “yes, kihyun? why are you calling? i thought i told you not to call my personal phone.”

he seems anxious on the other end, which is not pleasant to hear, “i tried, boss, but you weren’t answering. and i know i wasn’t supposed to, but i assumed you would want to hear the news as soon as possible.”

“what news?”

“jeon wonwoo of seventeen went missing three days ago. not even his own associates know where he is or if he’s even alive,” he says, and his words, especially the last few, hit particularly hard.

he’s not dead, right? he can’t be dead.

“i… see. thank you, kihyun,” you say.

“i’m here if you need anything, boss,” he says, but you don’t respond, only hanging up the phone and closing your eyes.

you remember there’s still someone else in the room, so you shoo them out, “we’ll go over these plans tomorrow,” you say, as if to tell them to go away. they catch on.

and you’re suddenly all alone in your office, with nothing but the thought of wonwoo being dead to occupy your thoughts. seventeen had enemies, of course they did, but why wonwoo of all of them? why was he the target? it was just impossible to rationalize why someone would choose him to be the one to take out. what would even be the motive?

it doesn’t seem real, the idea that he could be dead, even though it’s technically possible.

the idea dawns on you that maybe it was someone in his own group, maybe even the whole fucking mafia collectively decided to take him out.

and maybe it was because of you. the idea makes your stomach sick.

it’s impossible to know for sure, and you can’t spend your day getting lost in maybe or possibly. you assume the worst, that he’s probably dead, and give yourself a moment to grieve.

and then it’s back to work.

—

it’s late, so late it’s almost early again, at your residence. the sound of rain is constant and almost soothing as you drink your tea, giving a sense of peace and calm to your night. looking over documents from the casino, everything seems to be in order. last minute preparations for tomorrow are going smoothly, and all that needs to happen now is sleep before the big day.

there’s a ring at your doorbell. so, there goes a peaceful couple hours of sleep.

no one should know that this place exists or that you live here. this place was secret for your own safety and the fact that someone is here, ringing your doorbell at three in the morning is a terrible sign.

you grab the gun you keep under your coffee table as you approach the door. there’s no way to check who it was without letting them know you were there, you just had to open it.

“i’m so sorry i’m here right now!” you hear, barely able to make out the baritone voice over the heavy rain, “i’m sorry i didn’t say anything after that night, i was ordered to not contact you on my own! i’m sorry i’m here, bothering you at your house, but it was the only place i could go!”

when you open the door, the rain covers his frames, concealing his eyes, but it’s him.

not a single thought of ‘how the fuck did you get my address?’ or ‘why did you disappear?’ is more important than him at that moment. you open the screen door and yank him inside, tossing the gun somewhere onto the floor of your kitchen. you rush to grab him a towel, because he’s shivering and freezing and that’s scaring both of you.

you’re borderline yelling at him as you scold him for showing up, especially at this hour, “what were you even thinking? you could have gotten hypothermia! you could exposed this place to people who want me dead! you could have gotten us both killed!”

and yet all he could do is look at you with those beautiful, lovestruck eyes, “i’m so sorry,” he says with a smile.

you hug him, wet clothes and teary eyes and all, crouching down on the floor to meet where he is, curled up in a ball, covering himself up with that towel. he looks so small like this.

“i’m sorry,” he whispers again.

“don’t be, i’m glad you’re alive,” you whisper back, tightening your grip on him as if he’d whither away and disappear if you didn’t.

“i missed you, every single day i thought about you,” he mumbles into your shoulder.

“i did too,” you say, “what happened? why did you disappear? when did this become the only place you could go?”

“i-um,” he starts, hesitant and quietly, “i got into a fight with seungcheol. i told him i didn’t want to live like this anymore, and he said he’d… cut off my head if i ever left.”

“but you still left?”

“i had to, i was so unhappy that it was killing me,” he says with more confidence, still holding onto you like you’re his lifeline, “and, god, i’m so into you that it hurt so bad to never talk to you again. how the hell was i supposed to move on?”

“so what happened after you left? where did you go?”

“mingyu told me i could crash on the couch at his place out of town while i tried to find you, but seungcheol beat that information out of him,” he pulls away just a bit to look at you while he speaks, still holding on for what feels like dear life, “i found this place about a week ago, but it wasn’t until i was literally running for my life that i felt there was nowhere else i could go.”

his stomach rumbles, so you ignore his words for the present and ask, “oh my god, when’s the last time you ate? no, don’t even answer me, i’m making you ramen.”

“it’s okay, you don’t have to-”

“don’t say another word, unless it’s to tell me you’re dying. you’re going to go take a nice, warm shower, and then eat some ramen before we even think about what to do about you going forward,” you cut him off, but your scolding tone is so filled with love and care that he doesn’t mind.

he showers, finally feeling the relief of warm water. he always hated being cold in any capacity, much less freezing to death.

he changes into the clothes you give him: an oversized crewneck and some sweatpants. when he walks back into the kitchen, where you are, he pulls the sleeves as far as they’ll go, giving himself cute little sweater paws.

he’s so adorable, so easy to fall for.

you place a bowl of ramen in front of a seat at the kitchen counter, “eat up, baby.”

baby. he could get used to being called something like that. easy. he sits at the counter, eating like a madman once he realizes how hungry he truly is.

you watch him tenderly, all the adrenaline having faded out and now he’s just here. what are you even gonna do with him? you can’t just kick him out, he’ll get found immediately. so long as no one else finds out about this place, you’re both safe.

he can’t return to seventeen, though. maybe that thought has sunken in for him too, because when he looks up at you and smiles when he sees you looking at him, he’s not smiling like how he did last time you saw him. his smile is smaller and more forced.

all his friends he left behind, all his past he left behind, and that comfortable life he left behind, all to be here, with you.

“what now?” you ask, and the depth of the question is not absent in his mind. he knows what you mean.

he frowns, playing with his chopsticks, “i… i don’t know. i can’t go back, but i’m unsure how to move forward.”

“do you want to give up this life completely? just start fresh?”

“i don’t think so. it’s all i know, all i feel competent at, and if i’m being honest, i don’t mind it. i just need something more,” he says with a chuckle, “i don’t think i could live a life of white picket fences and nuclear families.”

“then,” you say, sitting at the spot next to him at the counter, “consider joining me. i can’t give you a top position, but you can continue your work as a hacker under my group. as much as i want to give you choice, i'm gonna be honest with you: that’s your only good option.”

“i know,” he says.

it hurts a little bit, and he knows what you’re gonna say before you say it, “and i'm sorry i have to say it out loud, but… this will provide you protection against seventeen.”

which is the most miserable thing to think about: his own friends coming to kill him. he’s a traitor now, though. he knows he’s dead to seungcheol. it hurts him somewhere deep in his chest every time he thinks about it.

“okay,” he says, somewhat dully, “i guess i don’t have much of a choice.”

“it’s not that you don’t have a choice in the matter, but you only have one good one,” you say, matter-of-factly, “you won’t be safe anywhere else-”

“i’m sorry,” he says suddenly, and it’s heartbreaking how he just can’t stop saying it, “i’m just so sorry. i put you and mingyu in danger just so i could have a chance to escape. he even let me stay on his couch and then got hurt because of my selfishness.”

“it’s not fair to you to judge yourself so harshly like that. mingyu did that because he wanted to, for you. you couldn’t stop whatever hell came after,” you say, comfortingly, “it’s better to be selfish than unhappy. if mingyu knew you were safe with me, he’d see his efforts as worthwhile.”

“and what about you?” he asks.

“what about me?”

“i put you in danger,” he says.

“wonwoo, i’m a mob boss. and a woman one at that. i’m always in danger,” you say, “it’s nothing new.”

“but-”

“stop talking,” you order, and he complies. you sigh, “it’s not worth it to think about all the things you did wrong. where you are now is where you are; there’s no changing that.”

“i’m sorry,” he laughs breathlessly, “can you just kiss me if you need to shut me up?”

you look into his eyes once again, seeing nothing but beauty and honesty in them. your hand reaches to tilt his chin up as you lean in for a kiss, and all the passion of that night comes back in full force, except with so much more vulnerability and tenderness.

but he pulls away this time.

why is he about to cry?

he answers the question for you, “i’m sorry, i uhm- i’m sorry,” he whispers, his apologies stabbing you incessantly, “nothings wrong. i’m just… so happy. i’m so happy we ended up like this. nothing compares to you.”

i’m so happy we got the happy ending (somewhat).

tomorrow (well, more like later today. in a few hours) he’ll be jeon wonwoo, the best hacker in the area, known for being able to hack into power grids and major international banks. maybe he’ll be there with you, keeping track of the operation, taking down security cameras or disrupting communications.

but for tonight, he’s simply wonwoo. he holds you like he doesn’t want anything else from this life.

nothing compares to this.

Summary: Yoongi finds himself looking for his happiness and freedom in another woman, leaving you behind with a broken heart and fading memories. But the moment he realizes that he was happier with you, might just be a moment too late. Alternatively, Yoongi cheats on you but struggles to let you go when he sees that you're happier without him.

Note: Italicized passages and segments either represent situations taking place in the past or alternatively, at the same time in a different place.

I just wanna be happier; Melt me, I'm cold I've reached out my hand countless times The echo is colorless Oh, this ground feels so heavier I am singing by myself I just wanna be happier Am I being too greedy?

Warm hands.

Something that you had never felt against your skin for the longest time, comforted you.

Not in a way you thought you wanted, but in a way you needed.

The heat of his touch against the bare skin of your back shielded you, guided you further against his own body.

Healing you.

Speaking to you with wordless movements and telling you that it’s okay.

You’re alright now.

Smooth skin that wiped away your tears and pulled your face into a safe haven that you had finally found for yourself. A place that you never wanted to leave.

A place that promised never to leave.

His skin was warm against yours, radiating love and comfort when he held your hands within his, telling you that you were no longer lost.

He had found you.

And he doesn’t want to lose you.

Thoughtful arms that protected your trembling frame and scaring away every fear that had been feasting on you. Warming you up with love. Telling you that it’s okay, you don’t need to fear the cold anymore.

He would heal you.

He would comfort you.

He would make you happy, again.

“I can’t— I can’t brea-”

“Shh…” his voice comforted you, gentle and soft, not wanting to let it overlap your own words but still wanting to be present.

“You can.”

“I- I need him; I need him back!”

The man never winced at the scream that came from you, pulling you by your shoulders further against his chest. Consistent pats to your back, smoothening out your damp hair, and using the sleeve of his sweatshirt to wipe at your clammy skin, he stayed with you. Right there on the bathroom floor.

“Can you get me my Yoongi? I need him to hold me, I need him to tell me that this was all a dream! Please!”

So he held you instead. His touch told you that this wasn’t a dream, but rather the bittersweet relief of being woken up from a nightmare. The end of a conflict that made you want to suffer a little more just to see how it ends but knowing that you didn’t need to always have control that way. Warm lips to your forehead, he tugged you further into the warmth of his embrace.

“You’re not alone anymore.”

“Yoongi…” your jaw clenched with each sob, too broken and too weak to take this pain anymore. Fingers clutching the material of his sweatshirt, pulling it closer to your mouth that continued to spill out hopeless murmurs of the name that you had once engraved onto the tablet of your heart. A name that was being burnt away like a cover over a tattoo that you didn’t want anymore.

“I’m here.”

Eyes that were brimming with sorrow glanced at the bottle of pills that lay against the tiled flooring.

He had reached you in time. He had saved you in time.

He would never let go of that hope that your body clung to in him.

He was the flicker of hope that your soul never let burn out.

He would never let that burn out.

And so he held your face like one man once had, letting his own body comfort you and for once, just distract you from the blinding pain that never stopped drying up the life out of you.

Lips that moved tenderly against your own trembling ones, arms that picked you up and carried you back to the sacred space of your bed, thumbs that never ceased to wipe away the tears that dripped down your temples, he comforted you.

Skin to skin and your hands held in his, he let you pull him closer. He let you weep and he let you fall back against the sheets because this time, he was there to catch you.

He worshipped hidden spots of skin and showered every inch of you with love that he knew you deserved. He tugged you higher up against his own bare chest and let you feel him with everything that had once held you back.

He loved you, that night.

He loved you, the day after that.

He loved you, the week after that.

He gave you love.

Even if he never expected you to give that back, he loved you like there was nothing else he was brought into this world to do.

And just like that, he healed you.

I just wanna be happier

It took three good months for Suga of BTS to heal from a relapsed shoulder injury that was caused during a performance. A performance he had never been to and a casualty that never took place. But this little lie had done Yoongi good, giving him time and a much-needed break away from the world of music and the hyped life that he was called to live.

It didn’t even take Yoongi a day to settle back into the humble house in his hometown, Daegu. His mother cared for him. Too much to hold his sins against him. So she welcomed her son back home with open arms and a meal that brought tears to Yoongi’s eyes. He ate until he couldn’t anymore and he cried until he had no more tears left to shed.

His mother had nursed him back to good health, even if he had to just sit and heal for three months straight. She kept repeating the same thing to him each time she oiled his hair and fed him chicken broth every morning.

“Give your body the time it needs to heal.”

And Yoongi had been sick. For the longest time.

His health began to deteriorate drastically after the woman that walked out of his life had given him a taste of his own poison. He was never one to be a hypochondriac, but the weird aches in this head and the bright spots in the vision of his right eye began to concern him. His grip grew weak up until the point where even holding a pen to write had become a task.

He would pass out frequently too, making an excuse that he hadn’t eaten, but it wasn’t much of a lie, either. Yoongi had begun to live on foods that were unhealthy and that left him malnourished and leaning on alcohol as support that only proved to be a slow poison. It was as if his body had begun to give up on him, and that’s when he knew he had had enough.

His mother was someone who could give him back the life he had abused.

She never spoke a word about anything that could poke at his sensitive past. She was kind and understanding and had nothing but love to offer to her son who sought help in her. She began to take walks along the beach every morning with her hands wrapped around his arm, telling him to walk barefoot and feel every bit of the touch of nature that he could at that moment.

She made it a point to fix Yoongi’s sleep schedules, scolding him and sitting by his side until he had completed a full 8-hour sleep. Regularly, she fed him nourishing meals and fruits and herbs that she used to brew her teas with, slapping away his hand that would reach for the little bottle of coffee in her kitchen.

It was torture, but that healed Yoongi.

It gave him back the strength that he had lost and somehow he bonded even more with his dog that would never leave his side.

One thing she made Yoongi understand was that even though he had made a horrible mistake in the past, he too had the right to be happy.

She showed him that blaming himself and believing that he didn’t deserve to be happy had been the very reason that opened the doors of wrath upon his head.

And the most evident of them all, the words that kept Yoongi up at night even with his eyes closed because his mother was watching over him like a hawk, the words that helped drive him further towards a healthier lifestyle as fast as he could, essentially gave him back his hope.

“You need to be strong to win her back.”

And so, Yoongi smiled a little, breathing in the fresh air and listening to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks for the last time, shoulders broader and stomach sticking out a little but feeling fitter than ever, Yoongi bid farewell to his hometown.

A car had been sent for him, and he had been grateful for that too. His mother had taught him how to value the little things in life. And this was a moral he was going to put into practice even when he returned to his apartment back in Seoul.

Walking up to the car that he could see in the distance, a figure that stood beside it had made him stop in his tracks. Covered in black from head to toe, Yoongi felt his throat constrict, fingers curling tighter around the handle of his bag.

There was just no way, he thought, gulping when the figure began to walk towards him.

Eyes that filled with tears met with another pair that mirrored his expression, tongue darting out to swipe against his lower lip. The sky was darkening, clouds covering the expanse of the heavens and adding to the beauty of the cold breeze that made Yoongi sniffle. But nothing could compare to the full-lipped smile that he had not seen for even longer than he could remember.

“Hyung-nim.”

The bag dropped from Yoongi’s hands when a pair of arms circled around his shoulders, pain-filled cries making Yoongi’s heart clench, enveloping the younger into a warm embrace.

“Jimin-ah.”

“Can I tell you how much I hate you?” Jimin blubbered into Yoongi’s shoulder, fingers grasping at his coat desperately.

“Don’t hate me,” Yoongi uttered in a broken whisper.

“I hate you so much.”

His face scrunched up, unable to hold it in anymore. Hot tears rolled down the pale skin of his cheeks, his chest and shoulders shuddering with each sob that he could no longer control.

“I know you do.”

“Why—” Jimin sniffled, pulling away and wiping at his bright pink nose. “Why did you fall sick? Didn’t we all tell you that that wasn’t an option? Do you really not care for us?”

“Jimin-ah…”

“I told you at the beginning of the year that I would punch you if you fell sick, and that’s exactly what you did. Should I punch you?” Jimin held up a weak fist.

“Is this how you treat your hyung?” Yoongi teased him with a little laugh.

“Is this how you treat your younger brother?” Jimin retorted, frowning deeply at the man he had missed terribly.

Yoongi looked down at his shoes with a nod of regret.

“I’m sorry, Jimin-ah.”

“This is the longest time I’ve gone without seeing you in the past 10 years. Did you really have to take three months off? Why did you never call us? Why did you never call me?”

“I know you hated me, Jimin-ah.”

“I was angry, hyung. I was angry. But you fell sick and you visited so many doctors and not once did you care to tell us that it was so serious? Why did we have to find out from your mum after you came back here?”

Yoongi sighed.

“I didn’t think I deserved to ask you guys to help me.”

“Hyung,” Jimin frowned. “We’re family, too.”

“I let you all down, though.”

“We kind of let you down too. Especially me. I’m sorry I couldn’t be there for you when you needed us the most, hyung.”

Yoongi smiled gently. “Don’t be. I’m fine now.”

Yoongi embraced his dongsaeng once again, this time wrapping his arms around Jimin’s shoulders. Soft, consistent pats comforted Jimin, fingers to his coat and chin over his shoulder. Sniffling in sync, both the brothers eventually pulled away with an awkward laugh. Jimin volunteered to carry Yoongi’s bag.

“I didn’t think you’d come to pick me up.”

“It’s only obvious that I missed you the most,” Jimin pouted, looking straight ahead after shoving one of his hands inside the pocket of his black coat. Yoongi laughed fondly at his words.

“I missed you too, Jimin-ah. I really did.”

“You’ve put on a lot of weight,” Jimin observed, squeezing Yoongi’s arm.

“Yeah, I’ve eaten enough for a year.”

“I’ve been asked to ensure you keep eating that way.”

Yoongi turned to look at him. “By whom?”

“A fairy godmother,” Jimin smirked.

“Hmm… I like your hair,” Yoongi suddenly complimented him.

“It’s much longer now, isn’t it?”

“Mhm.”

The streets of Seoul caused a burst of adrenaline to rush through Yoongi’s body, hands fidgeting in his lap and eyes trailing over the passing buildings and cars that he had not seen for the past three months. He had missed out on so much, and one of the things he was most excited about was to finally meet the rest of his band members again. He had missed them so much that in the secrecy of his little room back in Daegu, Yoongi had managed to write three songs about them.

“We heard about…uh…” Jimin trailed off, lips rolling into a straight line. “The baby.”

Yoongi kept a straight face, nodding and looking out the window. “Okay.”

“I’m sorry about that.”

“There was not much I could do about it, I’d rather not bring that up right now.”

Jimin acknowledged his reply, but a little thought nudged at him from the inside.

“Hyung, can I ask you something?”

Yoongi nodded.

“Do you miss (Y/n)?”

Eyes widening in surprise, his heart suddenly began to race at the mention of your name, blinking rapidly and noticing how the buildings that he was focusing on had now become a grey blur.

“Why do you ask?”

“We miss her a lot,” Jimin admitted quietly. “We tried to contact her.”

Yoongi looked towards Jimin. “Did she answer?”

“She replied to Namjoon hyung’s message. But that was it. Nothing more. It’s been over four months now.”

“You tried to contact her when I was here?” Yoongi briefly pointed out towards the streets of Seoul.

“Yeah, it was around the time when everyone noticed you were falling ill, and your mother asked us to call her.”

“My mother?” Yoongi’s eyes widened. “She never told me that.”

“She didn’t want you to know. She believed that only (Y/n) could fix you. I’m pretty sure she still believes that.”

Yoongi gulped.

“What did Namjoon ask in the message?”

“He asked her if she was doing alright and if we all could meet, without you – of course. But she said that she was no longer in Korea.”

“Did she say when she would be back?”

Jimin nodded. “She said in a few months.”

“It’s been a few months.”

“Exactly.”

A tense silence took over the car, faint honks and the frequent ticks of the indicators accompanying them, both men falling deep into the well of their own thoughts. Jimin couldn’t help but wonder if Yoongi could ever be the same hyung that he once knew just a year ago. Even though in his eyes, Yoongi had been a person who preferred to stay silent and enjoyed being in his own little bubble most of the time, there was a difference in the man who was sitting beside Jimin in the car that evening.

The old Yoongi and the new Yoongi walked in parallel lines, along the same path with the same destiny, but they could never think of crossing even once. A barrier that had injured his ability to be the same person that he was, a pain that always pulled him back.

And even though Yoongi felt much better than he did a few months ago, there was a grey cloud that sat tight over his head, following him like an evident shadow and threatening to burst at any moment. There was a time back in Daegu when this little cloud had almost become his comfort. A pleasant scent to his nose and a hand of assurance over his shoulder, telling him that this guilt would never leave his side. It would walk with him until the day he takes his last breath and would even hint at a possibility to be a loving company in his next life if he ever has one.

The guilt would love being with him and cherishing him and reminding him of all the beautiful things he has done in life, drawing him a beautiful portrait of the night he left you weeping on the floor so that he could hang it up on the walls of his heart. The guilt that had fallen asleep for a while but now vowed to be alert and show up in times he least needed it, because of course, it had become his best friend now.

That…was evident. It was so obvious that it made Jimin’s chest burn with worry, a little sapling of hope that had begun to grow within his soul, a hope that his hyung would finally grow a pair and smack himself in the head just to realize that he needed you, a hope that shied away at the intensity of the scorching heat of the sun that threatened to burn it away, a hope that began to sway wildly at the force of the winds that came with the rain that threatened to wash it away.

A hope that he wanted to hold onto.

So with a warm hand against Yoongi’s shoulder, Jimin spoke with an unknown confidence.

“Can you win (Y/n) back?”

Cause baby, you look happier, you do I knew one day you'd fall for someone new

The end of a tiring day.

Yoongi had faced it worse than the others after the leisurely break time that he had spent his precious three months on.

Yoongi was a man who worked.

Day in and day out until his body could no longer stay upright. A man who admired others who worked and had never in a million years imagined that a gap of three months could be so difficult to cope with.

The boys had been a massive support, Yoongi noted in his diary. A little brown book that his mother asked him to fill in things that made him feel grateful. The boys had welcomed him back with open arms just like his mother had and also made sure to feed him good food and take him out whenever possible.

Jungkook made sure Yoongi tagged along when the muscular pigs made their little trips down to the gym every other evening. Jin dragged Yoongi to some water body he found on the way to the other side of town, for fishing. Not that they caught any, but it’s the thought that counts. Taehyung and Jimin made a mess in the kitchen while Hoseok and Yoongi sat comfortably on the couch with a recipe for some north-eastern dish that he couldn’t even pronounce the name of, yelling instructions across the hall and wincing at Hoseok’s banshee-like screams of laughter when Taehyung brought back a pan of burnt fish that he completely forgot about.

They had their ways of showing Yoongi that they were there for him, with him, and that brought the fondest smile to Yoongi’s face as his pen scribbled across the paper. Yoongi loved such days, the setting sun hidden behind a cloud cover of rain-filled cotton candy, shining courageously through its descent until a beautiful pink and orange hue enveloped the surrounding with a tinge of romance and light-hearted happiness.

He had made this a habit – something that he had been doing a lot recently – sitting in solitude with a book and pen, one leg crossed over the other, and a little hat that covered just enough of his face to maintain a discreet disguise.

Yoongi wrote.

He wrote about all things happy and all things sad and sometimes used fancy poetry to describe such sunsets, a trait that he picked up from a book Namjoon had recommended. He would write about the little grandma who looked like a stout teapot that walked her dog along the footpath beside the river, he would sometimes attempt to sketch out the faces of a happy-looking couple that he had seen walking hand in hand, and sometimes he wrote about the river itself.

River Han.

Namhangang, the word that literally translates to South Han River, was something that interested Yoongi quite a bit.

Nam-Han, the word that was formed by two coincidental yet incredibly opposing names, Namhan and Bukhan, meaning South Korea and North Korea respectively. The native Korean suffix –han, in this context meant ‘great’, ‘large’, and ‘wide’, but it also meant ‘One’ in the Korean Number System. Of much importance to Korean History, River Han is popularly recognized for its strategic significance as the main canal connecting the peninsula’s central western region to the Yellow Sea and its fertile alluvial banks.

Not that he ever remembered these facts from a geography class back in his school days, no. He was too busy sleeping to even pay attention to anything as such back then. He had looked these up on the internet, wanting to be as well versed with everything that had to do with his country as possible. So while noting them down, Yoongi began to draw lines of similarity to the water body that he would sit in front of every other evening.

A name formed by two opposing characters. South and North Korea.

That’s pretty much how it had been with you and him. Coincidental, yet it made perfect sense. The world could write a book on how different you both were, as simple individuals. You were a particularly social person, whereas he struggled to maintain eye contact with people he worked with. You were quite loud and carefree, whereas Yoongi preferred to stay reserved and within his own little bubble. You loved being active, roaming around, and planning various date ideas and vacations, whereas Yoongi simply loved to either watch a movie in a theatre or stay at home in the comfort of his bed. You both would occasionally argue and fight like cats and dogs, but that added to the beautiful essence of your relationship.

Great, Large, and Wide.

Three words that described the love you had for him. There was nothing quite like it, it was home. You were home. You cared for him like any mother would, you took care of his schedules and never failed to make him see how important he was, not just to you, but to everyone else around him. You fed him and smiled with him and made his burdens lighter. You loved him like he had never been loved before and there was nothing that could compare to the amount of love that you had for him. He wanted – no – he hoped, that just like the river that flowed down at its own leisurely pace but never once stopping, your love for him would still remain. That your love for him had somehow not run dry but was still patiently waiting for his return. Selfish, yes. But he couldn’t help but want that.

One.

A word that has little numerical significance but has much more than a valuable meaning. Cutting to the chase, you were the one for him. You were the one he once loved and you were the one who he kicked. And still, you were the one he was writing about. You were the one who put him first and you were the one who deserved to be put first. You were the one he now wanted back and it made his lips tremble because it was just too hard to deal with the guilt of losing the one person who was perfect for him.

And yet, you were the one who made his heart rate quicken significantly, because all of a sudden Yoongi forgot how to breath and how to function and not fall to the floor in panic and just break down then and there.

You were the one he was looking at and nothing at that point in time made sense to him anymore.

You, the person he should have always put first, were within sight of his spot on the little bench that he was sitting on.

You were there.

And you weren’t alone.

Yoongi almost collapsed at the sight of you, his parched mouth drinking up the sight of you completely. You looked…different.

A good different.

With shorter hair that reached just below your shoulders, a little hairpin held up the sides of your fringe to the top of your head. He couldn’t make out what it was, maybe a sunflower clip, or something yellow. You looked radiant, eyes light and bright, crinkling at the corners when a gorgeous smile took over your face.

Breath-taking, he thought, literally, because he still hadn’t noticed that he was no longer actively breathing. You had a pretty dress on, white, the color that made you look like an angel, with cute frills around the front and the arms.

Arms that were linked with a man that looked all too familiar.

From a distance, Yoongi’s deprived ears picked up on the sound of your laugh, a sound that made him feel lightheaded, a sound that reminded him of rushing waters and open flower fields and everything that was good and kind. It tugged at his heart, painfully, noticing the way the man beside you had spoken something before he was blessed with the wonderful sound of your laughter.

Another man had made you laugh, Yoongi noted.

A man that he should have been, but failed to be.

A man that took his place and gave you the happiness that you deserved.

A man that put you first.

“I found it!”

Yoongi’s eyes widened, turning around abruptly and rushing to take the hard disk out of Minhyuk’s hand. A series of relieved sighs filled the room, Jungkook and Woozi rushing to physically look at the item all of them had been in search of for the past ten minutes.

“Thank god.”

“You should be careful,” Minhyuk nodded when Yoongi took the hard disk from him. “You almost lost something really important.”

Jin agreed from the corner. “Yoongi has so many songs on that.”

“You really need to keep track of your things.”

“I will.” Yoongi ran his hands over the black device, heart still racing at the thought of losing all of his hard work in one stretch.

“I’m glad we found it. It would’ve been terrible if someone else picked it up.”

“Yeah,” Kihyun nodded. “It’s one of us, so that’s a relief.”

“Where did you find it?” Yoongi asked.

“It was fallen behind the cushions on the couch. Must’ve slipped in there when you didn’t realize it.”

“Ah.”

“In that case, you should give Minhyuk a song as a ‘thank you’ gift for finding it for you,” Kihyun suggested with a smirk. Everyone laughed at that, immediately bursting into shouts and arguments as to who deserves to get a song from Yoongi first.

In the meanwhile, Minhyuk felt the need to scold Yoongi some more.

“You would have never noticed it if it wasn’t for the need to look for it. You only knew how much it meant to you once you lost it.”

Yoongi blinked up in confusion. “Yeah, thank you.”

“You shouldn’t thank me. It’s a good thing I found it before someone else did. Who knows, they could’ve taken advantage of it.”

“Yeah…” he trailed off, feeling slightly intimidated under the intense look on Minhyuk’s face.

“Don’t be so careless next time, Yoongi-ssi. Not everyone will be willing to return something they’ve found, especially if it’s valuable.”

“Okay, I get you. Don’t make me feel worse.”

“I’m telling you so that you feel worse.”

Yoongi raised his eyebrows when the man turned to walk away, feeling deeply offended by the tone that he was just spoken to with. Looking back down at the hard disk in his hand, he zipped open his bag and slipped it into the deepest section with a promise to never mishandle something that was of great meaning to him.

“What is wrong with that dude?” Yoongi grumbled to himself, walking away with a shake of his head. “He looked like he could eat me up in a second.”

And so he did.

Because all at once, every single word that Minhyuk spoke that day made sense to him.

This time, he had really lost something valuable to him, to someone who was much more capable of cherishing it. And there was nothing much he could do about it. Every word that Minhyuk told him that day fit perfectly to the situation.

“You only knew how much it meant to you once you lost it.”

“It’s a good thing I found it before someone else did. Who knows, they could’ve taken advantage of it.”

“Not everyone will be willing to return something they’ve found, especially if it’s valuable.”

“I’m telling you so that you feel worse.”

Minhyuk, of all people, found you.

And by the looks of it, you needed it much more than Yoongi thought you did.

You looked like something you had experienced with Yoongi in your life, but somehow, it was even more than before.

Yoongi had once made you happy.

But Minhyuk made you happier.

You both passed by with joyous laughs and fingers intertwined, arms swinging happily as the two of you walked further and further away from the place Yoongi was sitting at.

Looking down at the notebook on his lap, Yoongi laughed pathetically at the smudge of ink which appeared when a tear that he didn’t even know had fallen, covering the first word of the last sentence that he had written. Maybe that was his fate.

Maybe it was his punishment that he had longed for.

Maybe it was the bitter taste of the medicine that life had finally pushed into his mouth.

Because now there was no way he could take part in the oath he had noted down on the paper. He could never fill in that space.

He could never get back what he had lost.

And maybe, just maybe, this was for the best.

Because even though it broke him to the point that Yoongi bent forward right there on the bench and cried like he never had before, maybe this was for the best. His love for you that had returned powerfully suddenly felt weak and powerless under the sad truth that just walked past him.

Maybe he had failed.

Maybe he deserved this.

Maybe he needed this.

Because there was no way the heavens weren’t clear enough with the sign that was now evident on the paper of his notebook.

“Make (Y/n) happier.”

Masterlist...

Hey Guys, it's Riyu...

So, I have made one complete masterlist for all the groups I be writing for. At first it may seem messy but in future, if required I will create separate links for all groups :)

In the description, I have the link of 'welcome to my blog' which talks about me and the fanfics I write. The genres and the alternative universes I write for. My ask box is always open for you to send me the requests or if you want to talk to me (◍•ᴗ•◍)

Please forgive me with cheesy titles and members tag lines but I hope that you like it! These titles aren't just my interpretation but I have taken some words used in their interviews and interactions :)

ALSO, ITS PURELY FICTIONAL. THE IDOL'S NAMES ARE JUST A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE MALE CHARACTER AND A SHORT IMAGINATIVE TRY ON HOW WOULD THEY HAVE INTERACTED WITH THEIR PARTNERS... It's NOT based on real life... It applies to both whether it's FANFICS or CHATBOTS/RPs

The Random Happy Pill

Pairing: Minhyuk x reader

Genre: angst, fluff

Word count: 1244

𝙰 𝙷𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚢 𝙿𝚒𝚕𝚕

Besides being my game room partner, Minhyuk was pretty random in my life. We had a lot of friends in common, and he just popped up randomly all the time. I’m eating with my suite mates at the cafeteria, here he comes. I’m training with Hyunwoo, he pops up. I am walking to class, he starts to walk by my side from nowhere talking loudly. The only time me hanging out with him is actually planned is when we go to the game room.

I am sitting at my desk trying to focus on my work but my awful roommate is playing video games on her desk, not really trying to be quiet. I sigh one too many times and end up turning around to look at her.

“Can you please lower it down a bit, I’m trying to concentrate.”

“I’m in my room, you can just go to the library.”

“It’s late, I’m not gonna walk all the way to the library by myself.” I catch myself trying to tell her why she has to lower her volume down and shake my head lightly. ”Wait, I don’t really have to explain myself either. This is also my room, if I want it to be quiet for a bit until I’m done with my work, I should be able to get a little bit of silence. Just put headphones on or something.”

“Oh my god! Why are you always so bossy ! Literally you never let me breathe !” She finally looks at me, and I raise my eyebrows.

“Excuse me?”

“You literally judge everything I do.”

“I judge everything you do? You steal my shit ! You take my clothes behind my back ! You never respect me when I ask the simplest thing like ‘please be more quiet when I fucking STUDY?’. And I’m the one not letting you breathe? If I let you breathe, you would take all of my stuff and rip all of my clothes up. What the FUCK ??” I raise my voice for the first time at her and she looks taken aback.

“Oh my god I take your stuff once and it’s stea—“

“NO! Ok no ! If I tell you do not use one of my products because it is either expensive or sentimental. You DO NOT USE IT! I don’t fucking care if it’s just a little or whatever. If I tell you no, and you still fucking do it? Sorry it’s STEALING!” I stand up getting worked up, and she does too.

Soon enough we get everything out of our chest regarding what we hate about one another and our suitemate coming in is what calms us down. The hallway representative is called to mediate, the fight getting out of control, and now.. I am staring at my main door from the hallway.

“What.. the… fuck?”

“Oh, Y/N!” I turn my head slowly and see a smily Minhyuk. “What’s up? Why are you looking at your door so dramatically.”

“I was just kicked out of my own fucking dorm..”

“Uh? You’re not living here anymore?”

“No, I—I do but, the hallway representative just told me to leave for now, so my.. roommate can have time.. for herself?” I say completely dumbfounded by the situation. “I was literally studying for an exam I have for my class tonight, and I’m the one that’s been told to leave?” His facial expression gets serious and he gets closer.

“Do you want to come over to study? It’s pretty quiet right now. Kihyun is out, Changkyun and Jooheon are out too. I think Hoseok is in class, so there’s only me Hyungwon and Hyunwoo.”

“Su—sure.. Weren’t you going somewhere?”

“I was gonna join Jooheon, Changkyun and their lady friends to get food.”

“Oh.. you know what.. I’ll just come with you actually.” He looks at me for a moment then shrugs.

“Ok let’s go!” Once we get there, I recognize the girls from some of my classes. Jooheon’s ‘lady friend’ is actually an old friend from high school too.

“Ugh, what a bitch. Are you gonna move out?”

“I really want to..”

“Then come live with us! We have a room open, plus it’s a single. It’s only me and this girl, she’s adorable and super soft. I mean like she got a forehead kiss the other day from Hyungwon and she talked about it all day.” She laughs about it with Jooheon and I smile. These girls knew all the guys like me, there was no reason for me to say no. It already felt like a little family.

“That would make the room change process easier~ Are you really ok with that?”

“If she says it’s ok go for it Y/N !” Minhyuk smiles at me. Weirdly enough, only good things happened when I spent time with Minhyuk.

“Thanks! That would be amazing~”

“Ayy, all my favorite girls in the same apartment.”

“What about me?” The girl next to Changkyun says a bit offended.

“Your apartment is also fucking amazing.” He smiles and everyone starts talking about random stuff. Once it’s almost time for my class to start, I leave them after exchanging phone numbers, and Minhyuk offers to walk me there. We walk in a comfortable silence, his hands in his pockets, he’s gazing at the sky with a small smile on his lips.

“You look happy.” I tell him my smile getting bigger.

“I am! I saw you sad and that broke my heart, but look at you now. You’re getting a new room, and a single! With great girls! You used to complain a lot about your roommate and it made me sad to see you so stressed out about all of this.”

“Wow, thanks Minhyuk.”

“Of course~” Now I don’t know if it’s because I had my periods, or if I was tired, or even because I had screamed my lungs out right before, but I start to feel tears trickling down my warm cheeks. He notices real fast and turns to me stopping me in my tracks. “Y/N? What’s wrong?”

“I don’t know. I don’t think they’re sad tears.. I’m just— I don’t know. I’m so tired.. I really don’t want to go back to my room tonight..” He looks at me for a minute, then takes me in his arms.

“You don’t have to. Tonight, just sleep over at my place ok?”

“I can’t do that.” I try to dry my tears but he hugs me tighter almost making any sorts of pain go away.

“Please I insist. I’ll come pick you up after class, we’ll go get ice cream, m&ms, cookies, gummies, and we’ll pig out in my bed while watching dumb movies. Tomorrow is Friday, we don’t have class so we can even sleep in and everything.”

“Really?” This offer was too tempting to pass.

“We can even order pizza.”

“Oh my god pizza, I’m in.” I say almost in a desperate tone after hearing pizza. Yeah, maybe it was because of my periods.

“We’ll even do face masks and all that shit.” I start laughing uncontrollably still in his arms. Minhyuk was something else, he was really weird and random. I really really love having him around. Like.. a really random happy pill. He backs away for a second, one of his hands cupping my face and slowly drying the tears away. “I really like your laugh Y/N~”

Jooheon and the neighbors know my name

Jooheon| Neighbors Know My Name

Genre: Smut (plain and simple) Warnings: NSFW!! 18+, Cursing. Word Count: 1.4k Story Inspiration: Neighbors Know My Name by Trey Songz A/N: This story is PURELY fiction. Any reference to the persons in this fic are loosely based and DO NOT represent the real people behind the personas. This story also wont be from the POV you’re use to, I decided to change it up a little so please bear with me as I decided to use an OC of mine within this fic, please respect that.

She giggled softly as he pulled her hand softly, leading her down the hallway. His soft glare wasn’t seen but she knew he was glaring as he looked over his shoulder. As he gently tugged her into the room, and listened for the click of the door shutting.

“Jooheon….are we really sneaking around right now?” she whispered as she tugged at his hand. “I don’t like it”

“I know you don’t...neither do I” he mumbled as he pulled her to him, his hands finding her hips “But I’d rather us not get caught by your brother right now”

Nodding, she cupped his face, bringing her lips to his. Instantly returning her kiss, his lips pressing hungrily against hers. The sweet taste of honey on her lips, he felt like it had been forever since he felt her plush lips on his and it probably had been. His hands trailed down her hips as he gently cupped her ass.

“Jooheon…”

“Mmmm?” his hummed reply half hearted as he gently squeezed her behind before walking her backwards towards the bed.

As her knees collided with the edge of the bed, she pulled away slightly. His forehead pressed against her as she stared up at him. His lust filled eyes locking with hers, her nervous stare causing him to pull back.

“I’m sorry..I shouldn’t have rushed that” he mumbles as he stares down at her.

“No...it’s not that at all” she sighed as she hooked her fingers into his belt loop “What if they hear us?”

A small smirk played against his lips as he shook his head and replied “Who? My members? Your brother? Or the neighbors?”

“Jooheon! Be serious!” she hoarsely whispered yells.

“I am, c'mon Allie admit it...you get loud” he chuckles softly as he softly tugs her shirt upwards.

Her complaints and worries died out as he pushed her shirt up softly, his touch seering against her skin. She watched him as he threw her shirt to the side, his fingertips returning to skim over her chest and tugging at her bra.

Reaching back, she obeyed his unspoken command as she unclipped her bra and tossed it to the side. His gaze was fixated on her as she unbuttoned her pants. Her gaze locking with his as she teasingly slid them off. As he reached for her, she backed away shaking her head.

“Allie” he softly growled out as she climbed onto the bed, perched on her knees.

“Shirt” she softly commanded as she watched him.

His eyebrows raised slightly as she stared at him, her gaze challenging yet he obeyed and swiftly pulled his shirt off. Her gaze flickered to his pants, an unspoken command to take them off. His soft scoff followed as he stripped his pants, leaving him in his boxers. She smiled as she beckoned him over to the bed.

“You got a lot of nerve to command me around” he muttered as he captured her lips once more.

Her reply was muffled between his lips as he cupped her breasts. His thumb grazing against her nipples, the friction causing a moan to slip from her lips. His smirk was felt against her lips as he gently tugged, soliciting a gasp from her. She moaned softly as his lips travelled away from her lips down her neck to his breasts.

“Shhh baby” he said softly as he gently kissed the tops of her breasts “You don't want anyone to hear you...right?”

She sighed as his finger tips grazed against her sides before his grip fell on her hips. Her lips pressing against his neck as he laid her back. Gently nipping at his neck as his fingers skimmed against the lining of her panties. His smirk fell against her lips as he slipped a hand in her underwear.

“Try not to moan…” he said against her lips as he caressed her heat “If you do...I’ll make sure the neighbors know my name”

“Jooheon..” she groaned against his mouth, her hot breath against his lips as he teased her slick core. “Please”

“I love when you beg for it princess” he groaned as he teased her once more, his fingers slick with her desire.

She fought against a moan as his fingers worked against her core, his lips traveling back to her chest. Biting her lips has his tongue darted over her nipple, encircling it before taking it between his lips. Whimpering as he suckled one before moving to the other, his gaze casting to watch the faces she made as he played with her.

He slowly pulled his hand out from her underwear, smirking as she whimpered at the loss of contact. Bringing his fingers to his mouth he stared down at her before taking them into his mouth. She sucked in a breath as she watched him suck away her essence from his fingers. Licking his lips as he finished, her taste fresh in his mouth as he leaned down. Without hesitation, she kissed him. Her tongue swirling against his, taking in her taste as he tugged away at her underwear.

She gasped as she felt the fabric give away, his erection pressed against her heat as he pulled away from the kiss. Her bottom lip entrapped between her teeth as she gave a small nod, his hooded eyes full of lust as he settled between her legs. Her unspoken consent given with that small nod, he slowly plunged his member in. Her head instantly turnin to the side, moaning into the plush pillow next to her.

He groaned slightly as he reached up and grabbed the headboard, his brows furrowing as his hips rocked against hers. Her core tightening each time he thrust, her moans muffled into her hand as she covered her own mouth.

“Fuck…” she groaned out as he picked up his pace slightly, hitting her hard and deep “Jooheon”

His head growing clouded with the hushed moans of his name, his worries of keeping her quiet soon forgotten. All he wanted now was to hear his name spill from her pale pink etched lips. His thrusts go harder as he groans against her neck.

“Shit...fuck…Allie” strings of hushed curse words and her name leave his lips as her nails dig into his back ever so slightly.

Her moans slowly turned from hushed private moans to moans that filled the room. Mixing with his hushed groans and curse words that tumbled from their mouths. The moans of his name turned into a mixture of Honey and Jooheon. Both uncaring of the bangs against the wall as their hips rocked with each other.

The positions altering as a loud bang came from the walls before settling, her lips upturned in a smirk as she sat on top of him, perched on his erection. His half lidded eyes filled with the sight of her as he gave a small thrust up, watching her mouth form an ‘oh’ shape while her brows furrow. His hips rising and falling against her pace and she bounced against him. Her moans filled the room once more. His grip tight on her ass as he sat up slightly, watching as pleasure filled her cries for him.

“FOR FUCK SAKE” a loud voice boomed as they banged against the door this time.

She gasped slightly as they both reached their climax as the bangs continued. Her face buried in his neck as they panted for air, bodies sticky with sweat as they clung to each other. Placing little butterfly kisses against her neck as he laid her back against the soft bed once more. Gently slipping out of her and grabbing his pants as the bangs happened once more.

“Jooheon…” she softly whined as he got up and slipped on his pants.

“Shhhh princess, I’ll be right back I promise” he cooed as he pecked her lips before turning to the door “Jesus hold on!”

Peeking his head out as he opened the door, he was face to face with his group members. Smiling sheepishly as he came to the realization of why they were standing at his door at this time of night.

“I swear to god Jooheon...” his voice hard and angry as he stared down his member.

“...I’m sorry” he defended as he glanced back at Allie, her hair slightly wild as she leaned up, hearing her brother's voice.

“Dressed and out here in 5 minutes” Kihyun huffed as he turned and walked towards the dimly lit living room area.

“Should have kept her quiet...Honey” Changkyun teased as he smirked and turned back towards his room.

Mine - Wonho scenario

Of course you can!!!

Is there a way I could escape?

Is there a way I could detach my heart from that strong feeling?

Is there a way I can find peace?

You wanted to hide, run and never see this place again. You hated this place, the place you were supposed to be happy with, since you’ve been able to make a living for your brother. But sadly, you’ll be forced to never see him again. How is he supposed to live, to eat, to sleep, without you? He was still too young to live alone. The grandmother, who sold apples from her own trees, was kind enough to look after him, till your return. The memory of your promise to your little brother echoed through your mind.

“I’ll be back before the sun sets and I’ll bring something delicious.” - that was the promise. These words were like thorns in your heart. The tears, ran down your soft cheeks, cheeks that were tinted a cherry red. Your silent sobs are unheard by the guards, but echoed through the darkness. You wanted to leave, but you were locked in a golden cage for eternity.

Small rays of light shined on your face, as they broke through the small gaps of the window above you. A new day began, a new day of pain and emptyness. You sat up and abandoned the thin matress on the floor. You felt cold and hugged your arms around your fragile body. The room was unfamiliar and unknown to you. Step by step, your eyes wandered around the room, searching for any sign of comfort. Curious, your body found it’s way to the door, seeking for freedom. Your hand reached the door knop, turning and twisting it. Nothing worked. Knocking? Too naiv, they wouldn’t let you go that easy, if you asked. You dropped your hand to the side, ready to go back onto the matress. But as the door opened, you stepped backwards. You were shook, you couldn’t understand what was going to happen next. The door revealed a man, with light hair, covering his forhead. “Follow me.” The man truned around, giving you no single glance back. You hesitated first. Should you really follow him? But you had no choice, as the man grew unpatiend and glared down on you. Without a single second thought, you ran up after the man. You walked down a long hallway, red carpet covering the floor as drawings hung from the wall beside you. Opposite, were windows - all perfectly aligned, revealing a small garden in the middle of the building. The man in front of you guided you to a locker room. “Change, you can’t walk around like a peasant. As a servant you have to mirror the masters prestige and not harm it.” The man handed you a black dress, an white apron and shoes. Your fingertips brushed against the fabric. It was soft, such a rich black fabric was something you’ve never seen. Not even the richer in your village had those fabrics. “I’ll be waiting outside for you.” The man closed the door, so you were able to change, as you were ready, you stepped out of the room. The dress was wide, but fitted your bust perfectly. The length of the skirt wasn’t too long, enough to work in. “Tie your hair away. It will get in your way.” you tried to tie your hair together, but struggled as a stinging pain went through your fingertips. Your hands left your hair to observ the source of pain. There were various cuts, questionly marking your hands, you couldn’t recall where they’ve been from. “Here, you should tie them like that.” The man grew annoyed as you took too long to do your hair. His face showed a sign of distaste. Your eyes didn’t leave the marks on your hand, still questioning the source. “You’ve been running around the forrest and fell multiple times, as we tried to catch you. Don’t worry, they’ll heal. Here take those, these will cover them up until you’re fully healed. Our master wants a clean look and doesn’t like to look at a mess.” he handed you a pair of white handkerchiefs.

“Thank you.” was the only phrase you could say in that moment. Your mind was numb, qestioning nothing anymore.

“You don’t have to thank me. My name is Kihyun, I’ll be incorporating you. First off the rules. Rule number one and most important - don’t talk to the master if not said other wise. Don’t look at him, always keep a distance between you two. Rule number two - everything has to be within the given time. All things are scheduled till the last second. Don’t take too long and be fast without mistakes. Rule number three - Look clean, as I said before, you represent our masters prestige. Those are the main rules, I’ll tell you more later. Now we don’t have time. The Master will wake up soon and breackfast has to be prepared. Follow me.” Kihyun went ahead, not leaving time for you to comprehent what he said. You mindlessly followed him to the kitchen. The next hall seemed different from the one you’ve been before. Your feet became heavy, as you came closer to the door of the kitchen, the smell grew stronger and secondas became faster. Kihyun threw the heavy door open, for you to enter. The people in the room turned their attention towards you two, they bowed down as soon as their eyes landed on the man next to you.

“Good morning Mr Kihyun.” said all in inusion. Kihyun nodded his head as his eyes roamed around the room until they landed on a certain person.

“Changkyun” a boy who seemed your age or older got surprised by the sudden mention of his voice. You could see how he catched all the items he had previously in his hand and laid them on the iron table. He wiped his dirty hands aganst his white apron and set the fabric on his head as it slipped over his head. Changkyun made his way towards you two and walked past obstacles.

“Yes Mr Kihyun.” As the man fully stood before us, he bowed his upper body and Kihyun continued

“This is Y/N, she’ll help you with the ingredients. Don’t give her too many tasks, we can’t make her mess up. The Master wouldn’t like it.” Changkyun looked you up and down with an unreadable expression.

“Yes Mr Kihyun.”

“Good I’ll leave you then, I’ll be picking you up after the Breakfast is finished and the Master has left to his studies.” Kihyun walked out of the kitchen without giving you a second glance.

“Yes Mr Kihyun.” Changkyun bowed to the retreating form of Kihyun and turned his attention to you. “My name is Changkyun, I’m preparing the side disches for the Master. Follow me.” Changkyun walked ahead, while again, walking around obstacles. You both reached Changykuns working spot, the table was full of different kinds of ingredients. A range from any kind of fruits to vegetables and different kind of meats. All for small side dishes. “These ingredients are from our garden at the back of the mansion. I collect them every morning so they could be fresh. They’re not only for breakfast, but also for lunch, dinner and anytime the Master wishes something simple in between. Today, the Master will have guests over, that’s why we have so much over here.” Changkyun explained everything through. The boy hasn’t gave you another glance since the first time you saw eachother. You didn’t know what to answer and just nodded along. Changkyun instructed you to take out the seeds in every cherry. He helped you doing so, as it was extremely much as they have to be done for most of the dishes today.

Time went by and you had no other task for that time. The breakfast got served on the table and you were supposed to wait in the kitchen. The people in the kitchen weren’t allowed to work while the Master was eating, so they waited for him to arrive. You couldn’t hear anything except for your own and Changkyuns breathing. Nervousness creeped up in your body as it was painfully silent, until you heard the sound of a door opening.

“Master, the table is served. Please take a seat.” you heard an unfamiliar voice from the other side of the door. The dining room.

“Thank you Hyungwon.” The voice of the master drowned your body in coldness. A shiver ran down your spine as your body started to get more nervous any minute. The chair crunched against the floor and echoed throughout the halls. Minutes passed and the sound of forks and spoons touching eachother was so loud, it felt like it was right next to your ear. “Hm. The cherry sorbet smells pretty different.” Your body stiffened at the dish mentioned and Changkyun seemed unfazed. “It has a certain scent to it. I can’t remember smelling it that way. Hyungwon, do we have a new addition in our house?” Your body froze and your eyes widened the double size. Your limbs grew suddenly cold, you felt like passing out but still tried to keep your ground.

“I apologize my Master, but I don’t recall recruiting someone new.”

“Hm. Call Kihyun over, I think he knows more.”

“Yes Master?” You could hear Kihyuns voice, it was softer then before.

“Did you brought someone knew into my house?”

“Yes Master. I found a maiden outside the doors of your mansion. She asked for help and I took her inside.”

“Without my permission?” The Masters voice sounded curious as his voice rose in a teasing manner.

“I apolpgize for my selflessness, but she seemed like someone who fits into your prestige.” Kihyun kept his head low, not looking at the Master.

“If you say so. I’d like to see her face, so I can confirm your decision. Call her in.”

“Yes Master.” Kihyun listened and walked over to the door of the kitchen and opened it without any noise. As Kihyun entered the room, his eyes were roaming through the air, searching for your face. He walked towards you fast and grabbed your hand. Your feet turned to iron, not able to move. “The Master has been calling for you, follow me.”

“I don’t think I can.” Kihyun stopped pulling your hand and turned to you.

“You have to go in there, he wants to see you. Just follow me.” Like a spell, you were following Kihyun into the dining room. Your eyes seached for Changkyuns face, asking for help. But his expression showed you, he couldn’t help you, he felt sorry. Kihyuns grip on your hand got stronger, the closer you got. Your head stayed low as you remembered the rules.

“Well, well.” You stood still infront of the big dining table, staring down the floor. Kihyun took a step forward intoducing you.

“She’s a maiden.” You felt cold, your body tingled from the frozen state you are in. The mans eyes stared you down, you felt naked at the stares of the two men.

“So that sweet smell, comes from you. Did you took out the seeds of every cherry you prepared.” you were able to nod slightly, waiting for the next thing to happen. “That means I can anticipate that sweet smell of yours in every dish prepared with cherrys.” His voice was deep, but soft and calming. He could sing a lullaby and could kill everyone listening to him. “My little maiden, please look up, I wanna see that beautiful face of yours.” Kihyuns body tensed up at his masters words, just like yours. Your body started to shake as you slowly lifted your head, looking away from the man in front of you. “Sweetheart look at me, I wanna see those eyes of yours.” you hesitated, should you really look at him? But he told you so. So you did it, with shaking pupils, your eyes wandered to the source of the voice. Your eyes widened at the sight of the man, who was named as your Master. His silk like skin looked as white as the deepest winter, His lips as red as the cherry sorbet, his eyes shaped like almonds. The beauty he radiated amazed you and left you awestruck. He didn’t seem human, he was like a creature from another dimension. Something like him wouldn’t be alowed in the world of yours. He must be a sin, a sin you easily commit. His smile stretched his cheeks as he fully saw your facial features. “I can’t believe how Kihyun had found such beauty outside my mansion and did not report her to me.”

“I apologize Master, it was late after you went to rest. As this woman appeared at your doorsteps. I couldn’t bring myself to disturb you and your sleep.” Kihyun kept the same position, he seemed tense and you felt bad for him.

“Sure enough, I’m glad I met you today. You really did sweetned my morning. I have to leave for my studies now. I request some tea, make sure it’ll be delivered by our new addition.” The Master left the dining room leaving me and Kihyun alone. Kihyun exhaled as much air as he could and stood straight up again.

“Come, I’ll show you how to serve our Master.” Kihyun turned to you, his eyes softened. Your body relaxed after he gave you a soft smile. He knew how nervous you’ve became and now he started to worry about you. The moment the Master called out for you he knew he had to be nice to you. You nodded and followed Kihyun back into the kitchen. Changkyun ran up to you asking what happened. You explained it to him quickly, as Kihyun dragged you to another corner of the kitchen to help you practice. “You have to hold it down there, but make sure you don‘t burn yourself. The tea is extremely hot.”

“Why did he requested me to do this?” you were curious as to why the master wanted you.

“I don’t know, normally his personal maid is the only one allowed to serve him tea, beside me. Don’t worry, I’ll be with you in the room and helping you.” Kihyun nodded his head as he explained to you how it worked. Eventually you were able to serve it. Kihyun and you pushed the trail up the stairs, to the Masters study. Kihyun knocked on the wooden door twice.

“Come in.” Kihyun opened the door, you entered it while pushing the tray to the middle of the room. Kihyun motioned you to push it nect to the Masters seat. The Master read a book and didn’t move an inch. Silently, you’ve been preparing the tea, Kihyun helped you. “Kihyun.” you both were startled by the sudden voice in front of you and both of you stopped your movements.

“Yes Master?”

“I think our little maiden, can do that on her own. I want you to leave us alone.” Kihyun was hesitant and scared, he don’t wanted to leave you alone with your Master.

“But - “

“Wasn’t I clear enough Kihyun?” Kihyun couldn’t do anything else then nod to the Masters command. He left the room, after giving you a soft glance, telling you everything will be fine.

As the sound of the closing door echoed through the room. The Master laid the book in his hand down onto the table next to him. Your head hung low, avoiding the Masters gaze. Your eyes fixed on the floor, the Masters feet began to move as he stood up from his seat. The sound of his steps became louder as he came closer to your side.

“You smell so sweet my little maiden. I hope the tea has your smell in it.” The Master came closer and closer as his broad chest touched your shoulderblades. You could feel his strong muscels on yours. his body was cold but firm. You felt no heartbeat coming from his chest. His breath tickled the back of your neck, his lips hovering against your ear. His nose loosing itself in your hair. He breathed in your scent as your body froze, your heart beated faster, your mind bocame dizzy. “My little maiden, how’s your name?” His smooth voice sended a tingling sensation down your back, air cought up in your chest, your throat grew tight.

“It’s Y/N.” the sentence came out low and quiet, but the man behind you could hear it perfectly.

“And how did my little Y/N end up in my territory?”

“I don’t know, the only thign I can remember was Mr Kihyun taking me to get dressed.”

“Hm. So Kihyun helped you get dressed. I see. Has he seen your exposed soft skin of yours.” You shook your head to a no. Your Masters voice became deeper and annoyed as he spat out the sentence. “Did he touched you?” You shook your head again. “But why do I smell him on your hair and on your hand? i also smell a little from my little chef Changkyunie on you.” Your Master took your hand and lifted it upwards.

“Mr Kihyun helped me with my hair, he took my hand to follow him to your dining room as you called for me. I helped Changkyun with the Cherrys as you might remember. Master.” Your felt small as you stuttered every word through your lips.

“Please don’t call me Master. I don’t like that name out of your seewt little lips. My Name is Wonho, my little Y/N.”

“I apologize Master Wonho.” you bowed your head down as Wonho stood straight, but he kept his body close to yours.

“Do you know my little maiden, who I actually am?” You shook your head to his answer. “Too sad, beacause I feel like I want to sink my teeth down onto your soft skin and taste that sweet blood of yours.” Your eyes widened by his words, fear made your blood run cold. Was this your death? His fingertips glided down your neck, leaving the spot with a cold feeling. “But I won’t do it, I’m a gentleman and someone like me just doesn’t bite into someones neck without permission.” Wonho retreated fully from behind you and circled your body, standing fully in front of you, observing you. “Look at me.” you did as you were told, with shaking eyes, you managed to fully look at the man in front of you. His face was expressionless, his skin mild and his statue build like a god. “There you go. From now on, I want you around me, only me. Because you’re mine and only mine.”

The MONSTA X Time-Travel Theory (Originally the MONSTA X Universe Theory)

Hello everyone, and welcome to my new and improved MONSTA X Theory. You read the title right, this was originally called the MONSTA X Universe Theory, but unfortunately it can no longer have that name. I’ll explain why shortly. I posted this theory in February of last year, and since then, a lot of things have changed. My theory really only addressed until before Take 1, so it’s been 4 comebacks and one world tour since then, can you believe it? So yes, quite a few things have changed, and we’ll go over them.

What has changed?

Originally, the theory proposed that everything started in the Tresspass-The Clan timeline, that it was the original timeline and that everything went down from there. However, since Follow: Find You, this is no longer possible, as the Find You MV shows us the origin of Hyungwon’s abilties. Thus, the Tresspass-The Clan theory is now a stand alone. Technically I already wrote a theory on The Clan, although I didn’t address its connection to Tresspass, maybe I’ll do that in a separate “add-on” sort of post. Because of this, it can no longer be called a “Universe Theory”, as MONSTA X is not integrating all of their stories into one very convoluted timeline, but instead they have two separate stories (if later on they connect everything, I’m throwing the towel). That’s the main change, but this change provokes a bit of a butterfly effect, so let’s see how much the theory has changed.

The Story

Phase 1: The First Timeline - The Origin (We Are Here World Tour VCR, Take 1 & Take 2)

I know this is a weird place to start the theory, almost near the end, but it actually makes a lot of sense. These three videos serve a very similar purpose to what Beautiful did for The Clan, they explain the origin of their friendship. Now, things aren’t as dramatic as they’re shown in these three videos (at least I hope so, ‘cause things are gonna get very weird from a plot point of view if they are). The main point of narration is the We Are Here World Tour VCR, from now on abbreviated as WAR because it’s easy to remember like that, and because it fits the theme of the video (watch it here).

WAR introduces us to seven fine young men who have each committed a sin (two of which aren’t even actual sins, but I understand why they would change those two). Hyungwon and Pride, I.M and Envy, Kihyun and Loneliness, Jooheon and Greed, Wonho and Sloth, Shownu and Wrath, and Minhyuk and Agony. These sins are not actual crimes from a futuristic dystopia (although that would be a cool concept), these are just the personal struggles they are dealing with, the personal backgrounds that consume them.

Hyungwon is a rich kid that believes himself better than everyone. I.M is the local witch (?) who hates the rich kid. Kihyun is probably the only child that was forced by his parents to be perfect. Jooheon and Shownu are a very misguided pair of trouble-makers who’re friends with Wonho, who practices Taekwondo but can’t reach the standard he wants. Minhyuk lost someone important to him.

In the Special Film and the Previous Film called ‘ARE YOU THERE?’ they explain these personal struggles, how their situations make them fall into those sins, and how they’re looking for someone to save them. This salvation comes in the form of each other. In WAR they further explain their own sins and how being with each other saved them from drowning in them. Alligator represents the sins and them drowning in the swamp of their own despair. Shoot Out is them breaking away from their past and destroying these sins.

Phase 2: The First Timeline - The Trigger (Find You MV)

Originally I proposed that Hyungwon got his powers by entering that weird heart at the end of All In and Fighter. I’ve now been proved wrong. After they each overcome their past and become friends, Hyungwon’s family has an accident in which both of his parents die and he comes out badly wounded. After he recovers, he’s now living by himself and taking different medications to deal with the aftermath of the accident. The boys decide they cannot leave their friend like that and temporarily stay at his house.

While they’re sleeping, Hyungwon wakes up and visits his father’s study. He finds the damaged watch which sends him to an entirely different timeline. This is showcased by him suspended in the water, with images of Dramarama and Destroyer flashing by. There is a scientific theory that proposes that spacetime is actually a superfluid; I won’t go deep on this because I don’t fully understand it, but showing Hyungwon trapped in water is a good analogy to him being trapped in a different spacetime. This is also briefly shown in The Connect World Tour VCR, (from now on addressed as CWT), but we’ll talk about this one in more detail later.

Wonho wakes up first and notices Hyungwon isn’t there, so he wakes up the others and they try to retrace his steps. Unfortunately, Hyungwon is not part of that timeline anymore, he’s gone for good. This leads us into our second timeline.

Phase 3: The Second Timeline (The Code & The Connect World Tour VCR)

After Hyungwon jumps into spacetime, he becomes lost. Personally, I think there is a possibility that there were other timelines he visited first until he eventually learned to craft the watches himself, as we see in CWT (watch it here). Maybe he just watched this timeline fail a lot of times before he learned and decided to intervene. Either way, Hyungwon actively tries to reunite all of them by giving them the watches. He succeeds for a moment, but in this timeline there exists an agency that controls Time Travel, who frustrate his plans every single time.

It is important to know that in this timeline, the boys don’t all know each other and some of them don’t even exist in the same era. They don’t remember Hyungwon either. Personally I think not remembering Hyungwon might be because he removed his existence entirely by disappearing from his original timeline. There cannot be two of him, as that would cause problems, so instead he just completely seizes existing in all possible universes as he moves through them.

The rest of the boys still exist within the normal spacetime frame though, but they’re lost and ignorant to their true origin. They have forgotten each other and can’t remember yet. However, no matter how hard they try, this timeline is completely doomed because the agency is actively trying to frustrate Hyungwon’s efforts, even if they don’t have something against him specifically. So Hyungwon jumps into the water again, he must continue searching.

Phase 4: The Third Timeline (The Connect: Music Film D & The Connect World Tour VCR)

Destroyer is yet another timeline distinct to Dramarama. We know this because we see different pairings, completely different settings and completely different timelines. The Music Film D is divided in three stages: Part 1 The Code (a very obvious reference, this is already letting us know they’re connected), Part 2 Finding the road, and Part 3 Connected (clear reference to the current album).

D shows us the boys as geniuses, Minhyuk and Shownu are artists, Kihyun and Wonho are science (physics?) prodigies, and Jooheon and IM dominate technology. CWT gives us a bit more insight and shows us something very important: they have begun to remember each other and they have memories from their previous timeline. They want to find the person they were paired with in their first timeline, but more than that, they also have memories of Hyungwon’s intervention, even if they don’t remember him properly (because let’s remember Hyungwon removed himself entirely).

They know they have to find someone, and so they set out to do it. Through their own methods they all come to the revelation on how to find Hyungwon. Kihyun and Wonho do the math, Jooheon and Changkyun use technology, and I guess Minhyuk and Shownu have a vision which they paint? Not sure on that one to be honest, but they find the train station.

This could either be a real place in which every timeline and universe converge or just a metaphor for them figuring out how to do the same thing Hyungwon does, either explanation works.

Hyungwon is trapped in this train, which is another analogy, but this time for the (liminal) space between dimensions. He’s tired himself out trying to reunite the others, and this time they must come for him, and they do. They find each other, they remember, and they reunite once again. This time nothing can pull them apart.

Phase 5: Interlude (The Connect: Jealousy & The Connect World Tour VCR)

Jealousy doesn’t feed the plot itself but helps connect (pun not intended) and put everything else into place. Through different imagery, Jealousy illustrates how the different timelines push them together and then pull them apart, creating different pairings, but that despite this they still share things in common (the paper with numbers, the recorder, the glass of water). Another thing this video does is allude to Jooheon’s death in Dramarama through the use of os symbolism. In one scene, a paper with his symbol is being burned, while in yet another, the chair he’s seen sitting on throughout the video is being burned as well and then falls down to the abyss.

On the other hand, CWT creates a clear and obvious connection between Dramarama and D, revealing to us that they do have memories from other timelines. Another cool thing is that we get to see Hyungwon on the rooftop where they filmed Hero, released back in 2015. It also provides a clearer scene of Hyungwon crafting the watches himself and of him at the top of the Hero building. We can also see the last scene from Jealousy mirrored in the last few seconds of the VCR, which is something worth pointing out.

But, as the VCR says “when everything goes back to the beginning, someday, we will be connected again”. Where did things begin? That’s right, in Find You, so the next step is Follow.

Phase 6: The Third Timeline - Back to the Beginning (Follow)

If Monbebe has a war anthem, it is most definitely Follow, which is an amazing song. Unfortunately, Starship has decided to stop providing explicit story development on their MVs since Jealousy, so Follow doesn’t do much for the story itself. However, I have three important reasons to believe this is where the circle ends: all of the references to time, the quote from CWT,and the very last scene of the MV. Let’s go in order.

The most obvious reference is them standing on clocks painted on the floor, but that’s not the only one. We get to appreciate a few watches here and there, reminiscent of Hyungwon’s in D and Dramarama, and also see the movement of their shadows as a passage of time. The most important reference though, is the cover of the album. The title, “Follow” is solid and then becomes “liquid” as it moves down. This makes sense when you consider the other two points.

First of all, “when everything goes back to the beginning, someday, we will be connected again”. The beginning of the whole mess is Find You, part of the Follow album, there is no doubt about it, so why is Follow the end? Well, because of the last scene in the MV. I know it’s Shownu standing at the top of the stairs in front of the circle, and while it would be better if it was Hyungwon for the sake of this theory, we’ll just completely ignore that. That circle they’re walking towards is the train. ‘Follow’ in the cover becomes fluid because once they cross that circle or enter that train, they too remove themselves from existence like Hyungwon.

That’s not the only thing though. In D, Wonho solves the formula for time travel as X=4155102M, he does it again in Alligator and I believe it’s also briefly shown in WAR. Kihyun also travels back to 2015 in Dramarama to save Jooheon, and Hyungwon is standing on Hero’s rooftop, which was released back in 2015. Their debut date is their beginning, and they keep referencing it over and over because they’re trying to go back to the beginning in order to solve everything.

They went from Find You to Dramarama, to Destroyer and now they’re back at the beginning with Follow; they are connected again. They have different faces and personalities because they’re not the same people from the original timeline, but they managed to find each other and transcend spacetime to be together. So now, what happens next?

Phase 7: Moving Forward (FANTASIA X)

Here is where things get a little complicated, both in the story and in real life. With Wonho’s departure from the group (go support his solo debut), we now have an even number, which wouldn’t seem like a big deal if it wasn’t for the FANTASIA X Trailers. In each trailer we see that each one of the members now possesses a device which allows them to control time in one way or another.

Hyungwon and Shownu have keys, which when used to open anything will allow them to do spacetime travel (I would say only time but, well, I have no way to confirm this right now). Jooheon and I.M have this lighter-watches that when turned on, they allow them to stop time. Kihyun and Minhyuk have another very different set of keys that look like those in old toys or music boxes, which allow them to ‘rewind’ time when used.

Now, them getting powers is expected, since they also removed themselves from the “normal” existence and joined Hyungwon. I assume it is because of the even number that they gave Shownu the same powers as Hyungwon, but it makes it a little weird because Hyungwon has been special all this time. It also doesn’t make much sense that now Hyungwon is using a very different instrument. I want to believe that Wonho is supposed to be in Hyungwon’s place in the teaser, but it’s impossible to tell now.

Even ignoring all of that though, FANTASIA X overall just doesn’t make much sense with the theory. Sure, it’s still time related, which is like the biggest giveaway, but the boys still look lost and like they’re looking for something despite the fact that they already found each other. Maybe the Teasers could be their personal research into spacetime travel and their attempts to find Hyungwon, but I highly doubt so. I think it’ll make more sense after the next comeback or tour, since so far everything seems to come in threes (Dramarama, Destroyer and CWT, Shoot Out and Alligator and WAR, Follow:Find You, FANTASIA X and?).

Conclusions

Despite the fact that we can no longer call it a Universe Theory because it hasn’t been there since the start, I still think it is a story about them, about their struggles and how they’ve grown up. They’re each other’s friends and family, the value of X is their debut date because that is when they came into existence, they are each other’s dreams because they wanted to become artists and they did so by coming together into one group.

A lot of things have happened, but their friendship hasn’t changed. They got each other out of the swamp and helped each other overcome their difficulties in the hardest times. It is uncertain as to where the story will lead us next, in a way, I think this might be the start of a brand new story for MONSTA X. A direct consequence of the story they have carried out since The Code? Maybe, but probably very different and not exactly in the same storyline. It’s hard to know, but I’m excited about what they have in store for us nonetheless.

I hope you liked this theory, and be assured that I’ll add onto it as more things come out and new mysteries are to be solved. If you have any questions you can hit me up on my asks, Twitter (@soft_bluenicorn) or my CuriousCat (@soft_bluenicorn)! I’ll be glad to answer them ^^

Monsta X As: Sons Of 7 Princes Of Hell [their curse]

- Although they are sons of the most powerful demons in the hell, they have pure souls given by their human mothers. But their fathers all left in theirs sons the sin they are representing which is making their lives complicated. These young men learned about their demonic powers and gifts. As they grew up they learned how to tame down their sins but sometimes it was much more powerful than them.

- Will there ever be someone who will show them the other side of their demonic self? Maybe it will be you... maybe thanks to you they'll deserve their place in heaven despite their origin...

Shownu:

Son of Beelzebub, prince of Gluttony

Hyunwoo always loved to eat since he was young child but as he was growing his hunger was becoming bigger and bigger

He was always saying that it was because he was very active so he needed lot of food

But he secretly knew why his hunger was endless and he always cursing his father, the one he never met

Along with gluttony came greed as well, most of the time he was unable to share anything and mainly food

That's why he liked to be alone, he could have more for himself and the he wasn't so ashamed if there wasn't any people around

Hyunwoo wanted to share deep down but he couldn't bring himself to do it

His sin made him turn into lonely human being with only one happiness in the world, food

But one day he started to change. It was the day he met you

You were the new cook in his favourite restaurant

You were the most perfect woman he ever saw and something inside told him that he must get you

He asked you out and it worked. You said yes and he found happiness in your answer and in your company

He was strictly saying no to dinner or lunch dates because he was "on diet"

The truth was that he didn't wanted his sin to take over him while you are watching. He thought you would be disgusted and left him like everyone else

But one day you finally convinced him because u were really hungry. He was sitting next to you behind the table nervous and sweating because he knew he wouldn't able to stop himself

But when the food arrived and you asked "Can I try from yours?" you asked sweetly

Old sinful Hyunwoo would react in mean way but suddenly something clicked and he surprised himself by nodding

When he feed you a spoon and saw your smile after saying thank you he felt his endless hunger going away

Hyunwoo found new happiness that is stronger than the sin his father gave him

And it was you

Seeing you smile made him finally feel happiness from other things than just food

You were his guardian angel... He must said that angel that could cook like a God

Wonho:

Son of Satan, prince of Wrath

Hoseok was the most pure and peaceful baby boy you could imagine

But as he was growing the anger in him was growing as well

He knew that it's his father's fault that he was getting angry over simple things and wanted to fight everyone who disagree with him

As he felt his wrath was getting out of control he started working out, boxing, martial arts... just anything where he could release his sin

But even this didn't help with everything

He was still fighting people on street when be just simply didn't like their face

Most of the time he almost killed the people

Hoseok wasn't satisfied until his knuckles wasn't red and the other human wasn't bleeding and coughing out blood

Hurting people and being angry was so addicting to him

He just couldn't stop himself even is he wanted to

Anger replaced almost all his emotions he used to have

That changed on night when he was walking home and heard scream

He found you trying to get out of the grip of the man who were obviously drunk and wanted to take advantage of you

His anger raised and he threw him off of you

He always regretted when be was beating up someone at least a little but not in that moment

When he almost killed the guy you screamed and touched his biceps to stop him

To his surprise he did stop

When he looked at you with tears in your eyes and wounded lip all his anger disappeared and was replaced with fear

Fear of you being hurt

He took you to his arms and ran with you to the hospital

He was waiting there for whole night and when they let you go home you thanked him and invited him out as a thank you

Hoseok agreed and since then everytime he was with you he never felt angry

His thoughts wasn't hateful anymore because he was thinking about you

And when your face appeared in his mind only thing be could think was how fragile, beautiful angel you are and that he want to treat you gently how you deserve

You were his angel... angel that always woke tenderness and gentleness in him

Minhyuk:

Son of Mammon, prince of Greed

Minhyuk's sin started showing up already in his early childhood

He never wanted to share toys with other kids and was getting angry when someone touched something that was his

As he was growing up it was getting worse

His attitude made him lonely, no one wanted to hang out with him

But he didn't care, he was happy all alone just with his precious property

Yes, he was very successful in his work and he for sure didn't struggle because of money

But people hated him and wished just the worst for him

At one of nights when he was enjoying himself in club he saw you with your friends

Minhyuk immediately wanted to have you, he wanted you to be only his

He was very charming and you agreed to go out with him but you really quickly realised his greedines

He was so jealous, no one could talk to you when you were with him because he wanted you just for himself

As you were walking throught park a homeless woman came to you and asked for a food

Minhyuk was ready to yell at her but he froze when you gave her your corndog and even a bottle of water you took from your bag

"Why did you do That?" he was stunnned

You smiled and kissed his cheek "It was right. You should try it sometimes too." you smiled at him

Since then Minhyuk was thinking about it a lot

You looked happy that you helped her and he wanted to make you happy

Minhyuk asked you why you are with him since he is like that and you just said that you love him

You saying that broke something in his greed heart

He started with little things like allowing you wearing his clothes

And with your help he even started donating money to charities

And to his surprise it felt amazing

He loved helping other people and your praise was the best prize for it

You were his guardian angel that showed him how amazing it is to interact with the world and how amazing it feel to help

Kihyun:

Son of Lucifer, prince of Pride

Kihyun always thought he is special

He grew into prideful man

He knew he was good looking and he could have anyone but he didn't want to simply because no one would be enough for such a perfect man as him

He was always praising himself and his ego was growing

His sin made him shameless around people and because he was so sure he is better than everyone he ended up alone as well

It wasn't such a problem for him since he loved himslef so much

Why be shouldn't? He was extremely handsome, intelligent, talented and just perfect right?

For the first time he felt shame was the day he met you as his new co-worker

You were perfect match for him and he was so sure he can get you easily

That's why Kihyun was so shocked when you said no to his cocky question

He was speechless and he was ashamed like never before, he felt so small. So imperfect. So unimportant

For the first time in his life

Since you were his new co-worker you were seeing him every day and everyone saw how Yoo Kihyun became quiet when you walked to the room

He didn't want to even look into your eyes from embarrassment

When others told you this you were shocked but pleased a little as well

But when Kihyun didn't even look at you, you wanted to change it

"I'm sorry for being so mean." you told him in the morning

Kihyun didn't what to say but he stuttered a small "you don't need to be"

In the end you told him that you would love to go out with him but he can't be as cocky as he was when you first met

Kihyun suddenly felt like the happiest person on earth and in humble tone he said yes

He couldn't believe how shy he was around you and how much he was admiring you and everything you were doing

You were his angel that kept him humble and the one he always admired no matter what

Hyungwon:

Son of Belphegor, prince of Sloth

Hyungwon was never active which made all people around him worried

He was too lazy to study so his student life wasn't good

He was too lazy to go out with friends which was leading to losing them

Lastly he was lazy to even eat that's why he was so skinny, not healthily skinny like he used to be but almost deadly skinny and pale

His relationship was never good with people because he was too lazy to help them, meet them or even talk to them

The only thing that was keeping him alive was his cat

The only living being that he always take care about

His cat was his best buddy

She didn't talk but cuddled with him all the time and was helping him to fall asleep

So when his cat ran away he was crashed

That's why when he heard her meowing by the door he ran the fastest in his life

When he opened the door he saw the most perfect woman holding his cat lovingly in her arms while petting her

He was so thankful

Your hands touched when you gave him his cat back and Hyungwon never felt so much energy going throught his body

Smiling, he asked if he can't ask you for dinner as a thank you for his cat. You said yes

Since that day Hyungwon was almost shining

He became a whole sunshine

He was with you every day and when you said yes to his love confession his laziness disappeared

He was so full of energy when he was thinking about you

Everytime you touched him it was like you were recharging him with life

He was never happier, thanks to you he started enjoying life to the fullest

He sometimes heard the voice of the sin of his father but with you by his side he always successfully ignored it

Jooheon:

Son of Leviathan, prince of Envy

The monster with green eyes was inseparable part of Jooheon's life

Since he was small he was envious

He was jealous of everyone and everything

That resulted in hatred towards people

He knew he shouldn't be but his father's sin was stronger than him

He was always asking himself "Why they have this? Why not me?" Or "they don't deserve it but I do! Why i can't do that or have That?"

He felt like whole world is against him

He felt like people don't deserve what they have

His mean gaze always scared people

And if he found some friends they quickly ran away after realising his true colour

He couldn't have relationship because he was always jealous

Because his girl should have be just his. She shouldn't have talk with her mom, right?

He saw you for the first time at bus stop at early spring

You had your new green beanie and Jooheon being his usual self he was envious even about your beauty

You were looking at him and when you smiled he felt even bigger rage

How dare you to be so beautiful?

But he froze when you took off your beanie and put it gently on his head

"You look much better than me. I look funny in them." you smiled brightly at him

His heart in a second warmed up and the frown from his face disappeared

And he did something he never thought he would do

He took the beanie and gave it back to you with smile "you looked really cute with it. Please, wear it." He said

"Here you must be cold." He said and gave you his hot packs

As you took it, said thank you and smiled at him, Jooheon couldn't stop the warm feeling

You went to nice coffee and after that jooheon didn't know how to live without you

You were angel that took him away from his curse

Changkyun:

Son of Asmodeus, prince of Lust

When he was small he was the most innocent human you could imagine

But when his teenage years began Changkyun started to be uncontrollable

He couldn't live one day without sex

Sex was his drug and he could last for many rounds

It was the reason why girls left him

Yes, they liked the perfect sex he was giving but he was obsessed

He wanted to have it all day everyday and be hurt many girls in process

And he became bored of them easily as well

Thanks to his demon origine he never caught some sickness from all the girls he was with

But when he met you... His life changed

You were so pure, so innocent but at the same time you weren't stupid

He was charming and he knew how to ask you out

But when it came to your date, he didn't even think about sex

You were gorgoues but for some reason the only thing he could think about was him holding your hand, dancing with you, cuddling with you or just kissing your forehead

You fell for his charms of course and started dating

Changkyun changed and your first time was after months, almost after year and he made it perfect

Gentle, slow and full of love and not lust

You showed him that life is much more than physical pleasure

[ARTICLE] MONSTA X’s Hyungwon Reveals What He Talks About With Each Member, Life Goals, And More

MONSTA X’s Hyungwon participated in a photo shoot and interview with GQ Korea to open up about his image, the type of person he wants to be, and more.

In the interview that followed the photo shoot, Hyungwon talked about working hard during MONSTA X’s recent world tour. He thought about how he should act when he appeared on U.S. television shows, and added that he monitored fans’ videos and worked on music in his hotel room.

When asked about MONSTA X’s masculine image, Hyungwon remarked, “That ‘beast-idol’ image is pretty big for the group. But I think it’s because there’s someone like me [who is not as bulky] that the team can give off a more diverse feeling. I don’t gain weight easily, so it’s really hard to bulk up. I thought that I should should stay closer to something that’s uniquely me, so I wear things that suit a slender body type.”

Hyungwon then talked about his personality, revealing that although he used to be more introverted, he tried to come out of his shell so he wouldn’t be a burden to those working with him.

In response to a question about his childhood, Hyungwon said, “When I was little, I wanted to become a lawyer. I thought that it was really cool to represent someone else and make a case. When I was in middle school, I wanted to be an actor, but my parents were against it. They couldn’t win against my stubbornness though.” He also added that because he grew up in Gwangju, his Jeolla dialect was originally very noticeable. Hyungwon explained, “My dialect was so strong that my agency would tell me not to speak. It comes out a little now too when I get irritated.”

The interviewer later asked Hyungwon about his role in MONSTA X, and the singer responded, “I want to be someone who anyone can feel comfortable around, like a neighborhood friend.” He continued to add that he wanted to say whatever was on his mind to his fellow MONSTA X members, since they were one of the few people who understood his job and other parts of his life.

He revealed that the person he would often confide in about his worries or true feelings was Shownu. Hyungwon commented, “I think our personalities are similar. We’re both easygoing people, but we’re also not completely outgoing, so I can relate to him. When I talk about fun and exciting things, or about games, it’s with Minhyuk. Conversations about realistic things are with Kihyun, music-related conversations are with Wonho, Joohoney and I.M are—I guess I just talk a lot with everyone. [Laughs].”

Hyungwon then commented that one of his life goals was becoming a man of heart. He explained, “Those people where you think, ‘The more I look at him, he’s really great.’ I want to live like that, but I’m not sure if it’s working out well. [Laughs].” When the interviewer pointed out that people with a lot of affection and attachment towards others were usually lonely, Hyungwon answered, “I get lonely easily. When I’m on stage, I don’t feel tired at all. I don’t have any thoughts of home, and I’m full of happiness. But when I get back to my hotel room and pull apart my chopsticks in the silence to eat lunch, it’s a vague feeling. So I just drink beer. [Laughs]. I drink a can or two and go to sleep.”

Lastly, when asked about what he wanted to do by himself, Hyungwon answered that as a DJ, he wanted to create an EDM track to use at one of MONSTA X’s concerts. He also added that he wanted to go on a trip to Jeju Island by himself, saying, “I want to see the sea. A few days is too short, so I want to live there for a month.”

Do you have a flower you associate with each of the MX boys? - Rm-froggy-Jimin

this is the best question you could have asked me thank you thank you thank you

i’ll keep this as concise as possible! i have many many many flowers i associate with the monstas... but i’ll just give you one for each, since the rest of them are going towards a little special something :)) hyunwoo: dahlia! this one is actually one of my personal favorites. it represents strength and kindness and grace under pressure, balance and purity, and deep devotion. sometimes it can be used to convey movement... perfect, i think <3

hoseok: lotus! the flower of rebirth. this little one has a little duality to it: it represents beauty, but also hidden strength. love and compassion for all things, self-awareness... you see where i’m coming from, yeah?

minhyuk: daisy. true love and cheer for our good minhyuk! it also represents sincerity and new beginnings, and love for children, which i think is fitting... there’s an association with reciprocity, too, which i like for him very much

kihyun: gladiolus, the warrior flower. it’s associated with strength and integrity, very much like beloved ki, and it’s also a flower of protection. on the other side, it’s one of passion... “you’ve pierced my heart” is literal meaning and i will die on this hill

hyungwon: larkspur (delphinium)! blue larkspur specifically <3 this is a flower of dignity and grace, love and affection, and laughter... and i just really love hyungwon’s laugh

jooheon: a chrysanthemum for heony! it represents happiness and joy, and is a symbol of the sun. friendship, affection, support, loyalty and lasting love.... a luminous flower for a brilliant man (love comes back)

changkyun: peony! this is a sweet little flower; it represents prosperity, happiness, and honor. love, compassion, and romance... nothing but good things for kyun (also bashfulness, but shhhh)

#long post #mail #buzz buzz #IN WHICH I TALK ABOUT FLOWERS #I'VE BEEN ENABLED!!!!#monsta x #mx #just to keep for myself sometimes i revisit these #okay im really sleepy goodnight #beepost #this counts right #i dont know ksjgkjsg zzzz #night night #tulip

Meet-cute

A/N: So...this idea here came from chatting with @thespadesinyourhearts one day and she just had to say someone should one-shot the idea...and well here we are. Zili, this one is for you and all the Pretty People ❤

Disclaimer: A couple of things before we continue on to the actual fic. I CANNOT stress enough...this story you’re about to read is PURELY fictional. Any similarity to any real life events is ENTIRELY coincidental (and I might also be slightly psychic, if that was the case...😁😁😁). Also, I am a MBB that is OT7...that should say enough. Lastly, I may have overdone it with the cheese...so have your tortilla chips ready cause you’re in for some major cheesiness.

Pairing: Shownu x reader...and other characters

------------

You couldn’t believe it. You won two backstage passes to meet Monsta X on their concert stop in your city. One for you and one for your KPOP partner in crime, your daughter. You were trying to contain your excitement because mom-mode had to be on as it always was when you were with her. She was all smiles and jumping out of her skin with excitement. As much as you wanted this moment for yourself, you wanted more to enjoy the happiness it brought your daughter.

You were guided to the door of the dressing room. When it opened you were greeted by seven handsome smiling faces. You smiled and waved while your daughter grabbed on to your hand and squeezed it in excitement. She let out a little squeal before saying “hi”.

Naturally, they were instantly drawn to her. You had to admit your daughter had that charm to her.

“Hi, sweetie,” Changkyun knelt down to meet your daughter, “Do you know who we are?”

“Monsta X,” your little girl answered shyly, “I know because my mommy is a Monbebe. I like you, too, but mommy likes you more.”

And so it begins…

“You’re Changkyun,” she said, “um...uncle?” You raised her right as she was trying to think of a proper term of respect to use.

“You’re cute!” Changkyun exclaimed, “You can definitely call me uncle.”

“And you’re Kihyun,” she continued and approached the next member, “I like your smile.” Kihyun then gave her a big smile and pinched her cheek before she was off to the next members.

“And you’re Hyungwon and Minhyuk,” she said, “wait...Minhyuk and Hyungwon. You look like twins to me and mommy says I always get you two mixed up.”

“Oh my god, you’re so cute!” Minhyuk exclaimed and Hyungwon patted her on the head and she was off to greet the next member.

“You’re Honey,” she said, “I know you cause of your smile, too.”

“Oh really?” Jooheon said and smiled his dimpled smile for her. She took her finger and hesitated. Jooheon then gave a simple nod to continue her movement and she poked one of his deep dimples and giggled. Jooheon laughed at the sound.

She approached Wonho who knelt down to meet her. “You’re Hoho-bunny,” she said and showed off her bunny wonho keychain you had gotten her.

“Oh!” Wonho said surprised, “That is me! Does he not have any friends?”

“He does,” she answered, “Mommy has Nunu-bear.”

“Oooohhhhh!” they all said in unison. You were ready to crawl under a rock. Shownu had then looked over at you and saw how your mondongie represented him and that you did in fact have Nunu-bear hooked on to your purse. He also noticed that you were very pretty and how much your daughter looked like you.

“Ok,” you said as the blush creeped up to your cheeks and turned to the representative, “We were supposed to take a picture, right? We can do that now because I’m sure the guys have a busy schedule today.”

“Wait,” Kihyun stopped you, “She has one more.”

Oh, God help me, you prayed internally.

“I know you,” she said as she walked up to him, “You’re the one mommy loves more than daddy.” You facepalmed. Then she went over to his ear to tell him a secret. “But it’s OK,” she whispered loudly, “Daddy loves someone else now.”

“I’m sorry,” Shownu said to her sympathetically.

“You don’t have to be,” your daughter replied matter-of-factly, “You helped mommy get through it with a smile on her face.” And then she gave Shownu a kiss on the cheek. “Thank you for making mommy happy.” Shownu was thoroughly charmed and smiled his signature eye smile and gave your daughter a big bear hug. “She’s especially happy when she goes through social media and sees all those pictures of you with - “ you daughter started to expose your deepest secrets.

“Picture!” you exclaimed and interrupted her, “Picture, please?! Now!” Everybody laughed at your expense, which was fine, so long as your daughter never finished that sentence.

You all gathered around for the picture. You struggled carrying your daughter so she can easily be seen in the picture. It reminded you she was getting big so quickly.

"Can I?" Shownu asked and offered to take your daughter's weight off of you. Before you could answer, she was already reaching out to him.

You blushed at your daughter's eagerness. "Thank you."

The boys all gathered around you three and took a few shots with different poses and with your daughter being passed between different members. The only position that remained constant was with you next to Shownu.

"One more," Changkyun suggested, "with just them three."

"Oh, no," you began to protest, "That's not - " Before you could finish, Wonho was already passing your daughter back to Shownu. You gave in. You looked up at your smiling daughter and reached out to hold her hand. You then felt Shownu's hand being placed on your shoulder. You had to remind yourself to breathe and smile normally for the picture.

"Aw," Minhyuk said, "it's like a family picture." You felt yourself turn into a tomato and laughed nervously and hurriedly took your daughter from Shownu and placed her on the ground.

“Thank you, all, for everything,” you said to the room, “You’ve been nothing but so kind and patient with this little one. We don’t want to keep you for too long. I’m sure you have other schedules to keep. Y/D/N, do you want to give them a hug goodbye?”

Your daughter nodded and ran to the group of them for hugs.

“She’s very charming and sweet,” Shownu said to you as he followed you to the door.

“Thank you for saying so,” you replied, “She’s my everything.”

Shownu scratched the back of his head as he decided to do something out of the ordinary. “I know this may be out of place,” he started to say, “but we do have a day or two of free time left in town. If I could arrange it, do you think we can all hang out with her again? And you, too, of course. If you don’t mind or have any plans.”

You couldn’t believe your ears. “Of course,” you agreed, “I’m sure she’d like that a lot. Your people have my information.”

“Great,” he said and smiled at you, “I’ll be in touch then.”

“Shownu!” your daughter then exclaimed and ran up to him. He caught her in his arms and she gave him a big hug.

“We’ll be on our way now,” you said and took your daughter from Shownu’s embrace. “Have a great concert! We’ll be in the crowd cheering for you!”

You and your daughter did a final wave of the room as you bid farewell and ended a very, VERY memorable meet and greet.

* * *

“And that, my son, is why you should be thankful for your big sister,” Shownu told the little boy sitting on his lap, “Without her, daddy probably would have never had the courage to talk to your mom or ask her out and life would be so much different.”

“What are you two talking about?” you interrupted as you and your daughter brought snacks to the living room table.

“Daddy was telling me how you two met,” the little boy told you as he reached for a snack.

“I like that story,” your daughter commented, “I’m the hero in that story. Can you tell it again, dad?” She took a seat on the other side of Shownu and cuddled into his side as Shownu prepared for an encore story time.

Monsta X as Love Death Robots episodes..~

If you haven’t watched this Netflix anthology series I high recommend you check it out (only if you’re over 18)!

Kihyun: Ice Age

..~ I feel as though Kihyun is constantly evolving so I felt this episode represents him the best.

Jooheon: Sonnie’s Edge

..~ This episode is not what it seems. Like when Jooheon used to be seen as hard and scary but he’s actually really adorable and sweet.

Hyungwon: Good Hunting

..~ This episode is about a beautiful creature. Nuff said.

Shownu: Zima Blue

..~ Zima is a mysterious man that presents his art to the world and everyone watches in awe. Like we watch Sownu’s dance moves in awe.

Minhyuk: Fish Night

..~ This episode is full of bright colors and wonder. Would make you smile as wide as Minhyuk. Until the end...

Wonho: Shapeshifters

..~ We all know Wonho has two sides to him, super sexy super buff super hot then there’s super sweet super cute and super caring. Kinda like a shapeshifter.

I.M: The Witness

..~ This episode is a mind fuck. So is I.M

[ENG TRANS] Monsta X @Star1 Magazine November 2019 Issue Interview - FOLLOW, MONSTA X!

Monsta X met their overseas fans in 20 cities all over the world and wrapped up their third world tour successfully. The group finished the tour after five months and start to do their Korean promotion in full-scale. Monsta X is settling down as global idol through their big international fandom and their collaboration with famous international artists, such as wi..i.am, French Montana, and Steve Aoki. The expectation towards their constant growth and leap is increasing, as a group who broaden their stage to worldwide from Korea. Monsta X, who will start Korean promotion this winter after eight months, will show their improvement through their new mini album “FOLLOW : FIND YOU”.

How does it feel doing a photoshoot together with all members?

Minhyuk: We think it’s more fun and joyful because it’s been a long time since we shot a beauty pictorial together like this, beside jacket album photoshoot.

As beauty models, it looks like you prepared a lot so that the picture for the beauty pictorial comes out well.

Minhyuk: Because we are beauty models, we did many experiments so that our beauty pictorial will come out well. Basically, we pay attention to our skincare routine and looking at the other pictorials as reference for the sake of looking good visually. If we go to the studio for the photoshoot after learning for a bit, we’re able to show the pose more naturally in the studio.

You guys are active as beauty models, is there any Monsta X’s only secret method to take care of your skin at the change of season?

Minhyuk: The very first thing that happens in change of seasons is everyone’s skins become rough and dry. So we pay attention to the basics a lot. Especially, we apply moisturizer cream very carefully. Sometimes before sleep or when we wake up in the morning, we put on peel-off mask while moisturizing our skin. We spray mist occasionally while working to keep our skin moisturized.

I.M: I’m the type of person who drinks a lot of water. It’s a fact that if you drink enough water, your skin would feel less dry. Also, even on days when we don’t have any schedule and our face is free from makeup, I always apply sunscreen. Even though the recent weather is cool, the sunlight is still hot so we need sunscreen.

You’re going to have a comeback soon. You might feel nervous since it’s your Korean comeback after a long time, are you fully prepared for it?

Hyungwon: We anticipate it a lot since we will release a new album after 8 months. So we prepared a lot to show people our good side. It’d be nice if you are looking forward to our comeback. Wonho, Jooheon, and I.M’s self-composed songs are included in this album. Wonho’s self-composed song, “MIRROR”, is the song that he and Shownu performed on the recent world tour stage as a unit. I think fans would anticipate this song so much since this time we prepare it as the song that’s being sung by seven people. Shownu participated in writing the lyrics so it adds more meaning to the song. Also, people will be able to enjoy the album more if they focus to learn the genre of “SEE YOU AGAIN”, Jooheon’s self-composed song, who previously showed various genre of music, and the charms from I.M’s self-composed song, “U R”, after the release of “MOHAE” that he composed in last year album.

Shownu: Especially the title song “FOLLOW”, you can feel other different charms from Monsta X’s music up until now. The existing powerful vibe of Monsta X meets with a special sound and becomes a song with such a unique color. Besides, it’s certain that if you watch the stage together, you might enjoy Monsta X-like-style with your heart content. We finished our world tour and prepared the album so I felt the development of all the members.

You guys just wrapped up your world tour and prepared the album and it seems like we can feel the members’ development.

I.M: I think it’s true that various experiences allow for broad growth. While doing multiple overseas activities including world tour, I get to feel and learn many things. As we meet Monbebes from many countries, I get the feeling that there are so many people who love us. As much as my gratefulness for them, they make me determined to work hard to show them the good side of me in the future. Of course there are many people whom we haven’t met yet, we have to work hard so we can visit more countries, that goal becomes the stepping stone for our growth. Those reasons helped me a lot to think positively when we make a new album. Working together with international artists for our album influenced me a lot as well. The artists who receive so much love from all over the world like Steve Aoki, French Montana, and will.i.am, pouring great amounts of efforts and passions towards their own music. While watching them closely beside them, I think I know the direction Monsta X will take to move forward in the future. Even though I gained the lesson of musical skills, it went beyond that and made my thoughts about music get stronger.

You’re receiving so much love from overseas. What is the secret of your global popularity?

Jooheon: Actually since there are so many seniors who receive so much love from all over the world, it’s a big exaggeration to talk about the secret of our global popularity. But I think the reason why global audiences show their interest in us is maybe because Monsta X’s music concept or visual. Monsta X is the group with the explosive energy on stage, that’s our attractive point. Our music colour is strong and the performance is powerful so when the fans see us, they’d think, ‘it’s so cool, the stage is full of fun’. Also in visual aspect, because we have solid and sexy vibe, that might be the reason why people love Monsta X.

What is Monsta X’s only method to overcome fatigue, since you guys frequently do world tours?

Wonho: When we are overseas, if the condition is okay, we go to good local restaurants and eat delicious food. It is one of our methods to relieve fatigue. Even though we can’t visit multiple places due to limited time, at least we go to one famous local restaurant and eat popular food. When we do that, it feels like we came for a trip and we feel happy. Also for me and Shownu’s case, we overcome our fatigue by going to the gym and working out. But the most joyful method to heal the fatigue for us is communicating with Monbebe through live broadcast. Even when we’re overseas, we meet our fans by turning on the live broadcast at least 3-4 times a week. When talking with fans, even though I felt a bit tired or exhausted, those feelings disappeared, it’s so fun.

Are there any charms from each member that you want to take away from?

Kihyun→Wonho: When people think about Wonho hyung, mostly start to think about his muscular and sturdy body and also his work out hobby. But I hope people know that there are so many talents in him. You might already know if you listen to b-side tracks in Monsta X’s albums, there are many easy listening self-composed songs that Wonho hyung produced. The charm I want to take away from him is his skill of producing songs that are full of emotions.

Wonho→ Kihyun: Kihyun has outstanding vocal and musical skill, but even without those skills, there are so many things that he is good at. For example, since his body balance is so great, when he does sport, he always wins. So even if he doesn’t sing and does things toward sports or physical education, he’ll be great.

Minhyuk→I.M: In front of the hyungs, I.M has energetic and cute appeals, yet on normal days, like when he works on his music or in daily life, he shows sensitive and genuine charms. I think I.M makes people feel at ease since he shows a calm and honest vibe. So I really like his naively honest side that everyone wants to be with.

I.M→Minhyuk: I like Minhyuk hyung’s ability to judge and understand something in a flash. When some problems occur, he grasps the situation quickly and he makes good decisions since he understands the situation. We trust and follow those decisions as well. Also, he makes people around him feel delighted because of his cheerful and very bright personality.

Shownu→Hyungwon: Hyungwon is very honest and has deep thoughts. So when we tell him about our worries, he listens well since he focuses on our story, and he gives suitable and wise answers for our worries. We lean on him a lot whenever we worry about something. He’s a friend who has unexpected charms since he is very bold and generous.

Hyungwon→Jooheon: Jooheon has a personality that makes people around him happy. Because he is always smiling brightly and full of explosive great energy, he draws in a lively atmosphere whenever he goes. Also since he has good social skills, he approaches everyone in a friendly way and embraces those people well.

Jooheon→Shownu: Usually Shownu hyung is a trustworthy and honest person, but he’s also a witty and fun hyung. He has various charms, of course. Because he has warm nature, I think he makes people feel comfortable around him. That’s why it’s so nice being next to him.

As a group of seven people with various personalities and charms, is there any hidden hobby you want to recommend to one another?

Kihyun→ Wonho: Hobby I want to recommend to Wonho hyung is rock climbing! His physical strength is already good by nature and since he likes physical strength, I think it'll be good for him. Also I want to go to a ski resort together with all members. It’ll be so fun if all of us gather together and ski.

Wonho→ Kihyun: I want to recommend surfing to Kihyun. Because both of us like active sports, I think it will be so great to go to the beach together, surf and eat delicious food.

Minhyuk→ I.M: I.M is good at speaking by nature and his English is great, too, so he has many cases of becoming our representative when we do overseas activity. Based on that, I think speech academy would be fun for him and it matches him well.

I.M→ Minhyuk: I want to recommend swimming to Minhyuk hyung. First, it’s counted as sport, and it’s a hobby that you can do constantly without minding the weather so even when we do our overseas schedule, he can keep doing it, that’s why I recommend swimming.

Shownu→ Hyungwon: I want to recommend jazz dance to Hyungwon. It might look awkward at first, but since he’s tall and has a good proportion, I think he’d look cool if he did jazz dance.

Hyungwon→ Jooheon: Because in daily life I like playing games and enjoying it so much, I think about how I do it together with Jooheon. It will be a nice hobby if we play it while relieving our stress and eating good food.

Jooheon→ Shownu: I want to go to an exhibition with Shownu hyung. Recently there are so many exhibitions, I think it’ll be fun if I silently go there with Shownu hyung, view various artworks and share related stories about them together!

The hardest point in a busy schedule like yours is to synchronize different opinions from the members. How do you guys solve the disagreement or to reach an agreement over a conflict?

Kihyun: At first, of course there are many conflicting opinions since we’re close in age and we always together in most of the schedules. At that time, we told and held conversation with each other openly, we shared about our struggles. I think because the members are not the type of person who scare of telling their honest feeling, it was easy to chat with them. Actually, from my opinion, in reality the only way to solve it is to meet and have conversations with the related person face-to-face. Come to think of it, now we harmonize our opinions naturally even when our opinions clash, based on the times we spent together. We knew about each other very well, so when one member has an opinion, we can sense roughly what the other members think of it. Now we’re very comfortable with each other.

One of Monsta X’s distinct charms is ‘masculine beauty’. You guys have sturdy body from working out so we can’t take out the masculine charm out of Monsta X, but what makes Monsta X more masculine?

Jooheon: Actually, Monsta X is closer to ‘intense wild beauty’ than masculine beauty’. I think the sexy and charismatic side of Monsta X stands out in our music and visual, also highlighting that appeal. On the stage of our recent songs like ‘Shoot Out’ and ‘Alligator’, the members perform while paying attention to everything such as the gaze or choreography details. Those parts create an intense and wild vibe.

Shownu: We have many charms aside those mentioned. People might know by watching our special stage or concert that we can perform a groovy and dreamy vibe or sweet and soft image. So I hope people will remember Monsta X as the group who can absorb various concepts.

We want to hear your plan for future activity or for the rest of the year

Wonho: I hope we can promote the soon-to-be-released “FOLLOW : FIND YOU” album successfully. Also after this, we will cooperate for the “Jingle Ball Tour” in the US in December for two consecutive years. So I wish we work hard together with the fans with great stage and nobody gets hurt in “Jingle Ball” concert until year-end stages.

What is your goal for future activity?

All: We hope we can wrapped up this year well and pay back our fans who wait long with great promotion because it’s been a long time since we comeback with new album in Korea. In 2020, we want to show our cool, more various, and unexpected side of us, including overseas activity. Last year, when we talked about our goals for 2019, none of the members were able to imagine all the great things we achieved this year. We only talked about doing our best and working hard. But since many things came true, we’re praying those aspirations that are beyond our expectation and mind will come true in 2020 as well.

What is the thing you want to say to local and international Monbebes who always support you?

All: We think all of Monsta X’s happiness is made by Monbebe. We hope we can be together with Monbebe for a long time while leaning on Monbebe, sometimes as friends, family, or loved one like now, no matter where you are and what kind of person you are. We always feel thankful and love you always.
