Tags: a bit of sexy, a bit of comedy, a bit of drama...
Warnings: mentions of blood and injury, arresting.
Author's note: @lunaflowers It was supposed to be sexy but I accidentally came up with too much plot. And it's all because you said "take me away, officer".
Tumblr media
The item in front of you was nothing that could change the world, neither for better or for worse.
It was not a weapon, it held no political value, and neither the material it was made of was particularly rare. Yet, it was simply beautiful: an antique diadem with amethyst rhinestones attached to a frame made of pure silver. The design was nothing particularly unique, and yet, in your eyes it was the most beautiful thing.
Because it was not supposed to be touched, because it was still worth a few thousands, and because you were certainly not supposed to be breaking into the museum just to see this beauty from up close.
Over the years, you managed to get through securities of many buildings without worry. It was kind of a talent of yours, one you nourished with knowledge gathered on YouTube channels, books found in local libraries, and carefully analyzing the most famous theft cases you managed to get your hands on.
You meant no harm, really, although you knew that the people working here would spend days pondering over what happened. And their confusion, as well as the news announced in the media, would be all well worth it – because you never stole anything and only took pleasure in creating chaos.
And one more thing that brought you even more pleasure, was the presence of all those beautiful things that you would have no other opportunity to be this close to otherwise, although temporarily and just to see what they were like in real life.
You were literally a magpie for shiny things. A magpie that didn’t feel the need to steal them – just to enjoy them.
The diadem felt too light in your hands, although it looked well-made and not something that would fall apart easily. Yet, it was an antique, and you hoped you wouldn’t damage it on accident. You stepped in front of a nearby mirror – a part of some other exhibition, to be precise – and gently placed the piece on top of your head, straightening yourself proudly.
The only source of light was the white streetlights coming from the outside, but your eyes were already accustomed and you managed to convince your mind that it was not streetlights, but a beautiful moonshine, like in a story about magic, covens and astral creatures. Maybe the diadem’s colors didn’t match your complexion all that well, and the shining of the rhinestones only highlighted the imperfections of your skin and hair, but at this exact moment, for these precious minutes, you were on top of the world.
You stared at the mirror a bit too long before you realized that far behind you, leaning against a column, there was a silhouette you absolutely did not spot before.
You froze with your fingers still touching the diadem on your head.
You looked straight ahead, your eyes fixated on the person in the background of your reflection, its shape slowly becoming more and more evident, and you only pondered as to how could you not have spotted him before?
The man stood there with his arms crossed. He had a police uniform on, although you barely saw it in the sparse light. He looked composed, as if not even slightly bothered with the presence of a wanted criminal responsible for dozens of high-priority break-ins.
You turned around slowly and raised your hands, the diadem on your head tilting slightly, and you did your best to not make any frantic movements as to not let it fall off. You knew you had to be careful now – not only for this reason. You were not a good fighter, he could take you down so easily. You needed to play this part smart.
“Hello, officer” you laughed awkwardly. The man tilted his head to the side. Your eyes were accustomed enough to be able to see him well despite the distance, and you noted a small, curious smile appear in the corner of his lip.
You frowned. Minutes had already passed since you arrived, and you two were there still all alone, no back-up called, no noise of police sirens. The fact that you got caught was already unexpected, but this situation also didn’t seem like what you’d imagined your final defeat to be.
“So, um…” Should you start a discussion? Or a fight? Or just run? Or throw the diadem and run in the opposite direction? Dammit, but you couldn’t risk damaging it. No, you had to make sure the treasure was safe first. “What brings you here, actually?” you spoke as nonchalantly as you were able to, very slowly stepping toward the exhibition table. Unfortunately, it shortened the distance between you and him as well, and you felt yourself become small and defenseless against his strong, even though still silent, presence. You did your best to avoid any rapid movements as you took the diadem gently off your head and placed it neatly back on the exhibition. The man observed you without a word, allowing you to finish your deed, as though watching an animal in a cage – not wanting to interrupt its natural instincts and eager to find out what would it do in those peculiar circumstances.
“Curiosity, probably” he finally spoke and you shuddered at his deep voice vibrating through the air.
“Curiosity, huh… Well, what are you curious about then, kind sir?” you questioned, forcing your voice sound cocky to boost your confidence. It almost worked.
“Well, I’m very curious about the skilled thief who has been breaking into museums all over the country and not even once stole anything. I almost wonder how many break-ins did we not even notice happening.”
You laughed awkwardly. It sounded like a praise in your ears and you couldn’t help but get a bit shy at the thought. But you quickly reminded yourself of the circumstances.
“So, how did you exactly know where to look for me?” you asked, now the one being curious.
“You don’t steal anything, but you always touch… something. You have a pattern” he explained in a matter-of-fact voice. “For pretty things. For shiny things. I wasn’t sure, but now I can see, why.” He glanced at the diadem, lifting one eyebrow, as if making fun of your peculiar behavior he had the chance to see earlier. You pressed your lips tightly, feeling caught red-handed in more than one way. “Is that really just it? That you enjoy seeing yourself in these things?”
You shrugged.
“Yeah, kind of. It’s just… you know, kind of a freeing experience. Touching the things no one else can, seeing yourself how no one else could.” You stared at the diadem with sentiment. “And knowing that people’s gonna be confused shitless after finding out. I have a pretty boring life otherwise.” He stared at you, clearly disbelieving that your reasoning could be this silly and simple-minded. You felt a bit weird, sharing such deep thoughts with a policeman who could only bring harm upon you at the moment, but somehow, you didn’t feel like a criminal. More of like a child caught playing with their mom’s jewelry when nobody’s home.
But the officer only shook his head, taking his time to collect his thoughts. You felt like he’s judging you in his mind. What could he possibly ask next? If you haven’t thought about what if you get caught? Come on, he must have heard people talk about that thousands of times in his career of a police officer.
Besides, it’s not like it mattered at that point.
“Why don’t you steal them, then?” he asked.
“Because stealing is bad” you deadpanned. “Duh.”
The man was clearly starting to lose his mind at the conversation, and it gave you a bit of satisfaction knowing it was no longer him in charge of the talk. Even though you still had no doubt that he was in charge of the situation as a whole.
“So is burglary. But you’re a skilled burglar. Why won’t you use your skill for something safer? Something that would bring you material benefit?”
“What exactly are you implying, huh?” You tilted your head to the side, genuinely intrigued.
“That if you’re arrested, your only line of getting out of prison sentence may be to trade your freedom for your skill.”
You felt your face heat up. Maybe you were skilled burglar, but making a living out of it? Having someone watch you and make use of something you considered a hobby…? That was messing with your thoughts way too much, and your mind just refused to acknowledge such a possibility.
“Well, I would rather not get any sentence, so since I haven’t stolen anything, why won’t you just let me leave?”
He sighed, scratching the back of his head.
“You know I can’t do that.”
“Well” you shrugged. “Have fun with the exhibition then, and I’ll see my way out-”
You managed to make three towards the entry.
Just three steps, not a single one more, before something hit the back of your knees, knocking you down fast and effectively. You let out a small, confused whimper when you fell face first onto the clean, tiled museum floor.
The man crouched down, pressing his knee into your lower back, gently enough to not hurt you, but firmly enough so that you knew that fighting him was not an option. No hurry, no rough or frantic movements. You breathed heavily. Being overpowered so fast and so easily felt surreal.
“Don’t try anything.” Something in his voice felt soothing, as if – once again – you were an animal, but this time caught wandering a bit too deep into the human habitat. Were you to be taken into a warm house and domesticated by the animal rescue, or killed quickly and quietly by the heartless poacher?
He pulled your hands back, and the clinging of handcuffs woke you up from the daze. You recoiled, using all your strengths and pent up energy to try and throw him off yourself.
“Shh… easy there.” He presses you down a bit stronger. You whimpered helplessly.
“Let me…” You tried to stop him from immobilizing your hands, and finally kicked your legs up, managing to somehow knock the handcuffs out of his fingers. “...GO!” It was a mere moment, just one second-long chance to get out of his grasp, and you used it to your advantage, pushing him off yourself and simultaneously getting up on trembling legs. Your pulse was so loud it drowned out his voice – whatever he was saying – and you didn’t bother looking back as you strode towards the exit, quick steps turning into a sprint when you realized he can and will try and catch up to you.
You got in here through a window in the roof and that was the only way out you could rely on.
You ran up the stairs at the back of the exhibition room, and you already heard heavy steps right behind when in your frantic steps, your foot stepped at an unfortunate angle that made you lose your balance. From a chaotic climb up the stairs, suddenly you were tumbling down the high construction, on your way down bumping into the man and sending him falling down along with you.
With a heavy thud, your and policeman’s bodies collapsed onto the floor at the very bottom of the stairs. The entire museum suddenly fell silent.
It took a few very long moments of laying down motionlessly before you dared to move your muscles.
Everything hurt, especially your knees that you must have bruised up while falling. The world was still spinning when you forced yourself up.
That’s when you saw the policeman laying motionlessly a few steps from you, facing upwards and with a deep gash on his forehead that made you gasp at the sight.
“Oh no. Oh fuck, no, no…” You didn’t think twice, crawling to him, although your own head was still spinning and your legs hurt when moving. “Hey, hey, officer, wake up!”
You shook him by his shoulders and the man mumbled something incoherent. You screamed inside, realizing that you could not possibly leave him there. In the long hours that would pass before the museum opened in the morning, the damage his body suffered from could turn irreversible, and you just could not stand the thought of having him on your conscience.
Not wasting any more time, you pulled out the phone from his pants’ pocket. His hand moved slightly, reaching to wave you off, as if trying to prevent you from stealing it, because what other thought could he possibly have about you browsing through his pockets, right? But he was still too weak and confused to impose a threat and you just nudged his hand away, dialing the emergency number.
Your heart was beating fast and you felt nauseous. While giving the details and the address to the operator, you felt like your entire life was falling apart.
“Miss, what is your name?”
You knew there was no way to stop it now, that too much has happened to escape the consequences any longer. Your hands trembled when you answered the question, and once the ambulance is on the way echoed in your ear, you didn’t wait for the further instructions before hanging up on the operator and throwing the phone away from yourself.
You couldn’t think straight any longer. Was there a way for you to still make a run for it?
What if you just left? Went far away, somewhere people won’t know your name? You could just survive.
You were about to get up and run back up your escape route when you felt something grasp your wrist.
You looked down. The officer stared at you way more consciously now, and, although still laying down on the floor, his hold on your wrist was strong.
“Please, let me go…” you whimpered.
“You can’t run forever” he mumbled, voice barely audible. “Just let it happen. You’ll be okay. I promise.”
You wouldn’t listen. If only you had a choice, you would pry his hand off yourself and still run, because the levels of fear and panic in you were way higher than any reason or even consideration for what he meant.
But you heard a clinging of metal when with remains of strength, the man handcuffed your wrist to his own.
You sobbed, feeling tears roll down your cheeks.
With your mind slowly becoming numb, you only sat there in the sound of your own cries, waiting for the ambulance and the police to finally arrive
* * *
One month later.
Back in the days, you’d work at a small convenience store. The job didn’t pay well, and neither did it give you any satisfaction to do. The floor was always dirty beyond the capacity to be cleaned, and the windows were covered with dull advertisements in annoying, fake colors. The only thing that brought a smile to your face was when new alcohol would be delivered, because the few more expensive brands that your store sold had such pretty bottles, and you’d spend the lazy parts of your shift with your vision tunneled on the crystal-like surfaces. Back then, you didn’t think anything as pretty would be achievable for you to look at on a daily basis.
But the tall office building you stood in front of was covered in dark glass that reflected the setting sun in the most beautiful of ways, and as you looked through the windows of the ground floor, the restaurant inside had the prettiest little bulbs as a part of their decoration, and behind the bar counter, there were bottles of alcohol that appeared to be kept clean at all times, and so it was yet another thing that reflected the light. And the building’s windows were clean, too.
So that’s how it could have looked like, you thought to yourself.
It would be a lie to say that you could consider a better job, were you not to have that particular skill of yours. In fact, you were almost certain that you would never even get close to a place like this, if not all that happened. Was it worth all the stress and bruises, on both your body and your mind, that incurred in the process? You couldn’t agree, but neither could you disagree with such a statement.
“You like it?”
You jumped at the voice that sounded out right behind you, almost dropping the newly acquired laptop bag held tightly in your arms.
“Jongin? What are you doing here?”
You don’t think you’ve ever seen him wear a T-shirt before, it was always the uniform. But today the man looked different, and you wondered what brought him to this place. It was also the first time since the museum that you saw him without a band aid on his forehead, and although the scar was still there, you were glad to see it healing well.
“I wanted to see how’s it going. Are they treating you well?”
You snorted at that, although the tips of your ears got a bit red when you realized he came all this way just to see you.
“They’re nicer than I thought, to be honest. I always imagined corporate work would be… more stiff. But I’ve been here for a week, I don’t know if I like it yet. I’m still at work safety trainings, I don’t even know what exactly I’ll be doing” you shrugged, trying to sound unbothered. But for a fact, you were actually quite stressed out with all the things happening recently. “And they pay me better than I thought they will, you know, considering I have no choice but to work there…” you added a bit quieter, lowering your head. You still felt ashamed of the situation you found yourself in. Accepting the job offer was your only way to avoid prison. The judge took into consideration that the harm you’ve done was relatively marginal. 
And Jongin’s testimony about you staying with his injured self at the museum also took a great part in getting you as merciful of a sentence as it was only possible in the circumstances given. You still had to report regularly to the local police office (and, frankly, you didn’t mind, because it was the one Jongin himself worked at).
“But I think it will be fun. A bit. Or maybe not too boring” you pondered. “I’ll be joining some team that checks security measures for the insurance provider. It sounds so serious, you know? I mean, I was a convenience store cashier before. This is so fancy in comparison. But how will I even tell my family how I got this job? Hey mom, I broke into a museum but I didn’t steal anything so they hired me” you continued to blabber.
Jongin watched you with a warm smile.
You could tell he’s proud of himself. And even though you didn’t know if it was the best outcome for you, you felt like it was the best outcome for him. He not only caught the burglar he was after – apparently – for months, but he also managed to get them to change their ways.
You had to admit, his personal charm did play a role in making you more eager to cooperate.
“So, did you come here just to ask about my job, or…?”
The man pushed his hands into the pockets of his jacket.
“Actually, I wanted to ask if you’d like to eat a dinner together.”
You stared at him for a moment, dumbfounded.
“A dinner?”
Is this a…? No way.
“Yeah, there’s a nice place I wanted to show you.”
“Nicer than that private museum I visited three months ago?” you teased, at which the officer rolled his eyes, letting out a shaky laugh.
“It’s a fancy restaurant that we had an office party at once.” That didn’t sound too encouraging. “They have crystal chandeliers all over the ceiling.”
Your eyes widened in excitement and you almost felt yourself salivate.
“Let’s go there.”
The man laughed warmly.
“Now that I think about it, I’m not sure if I’m not overpaying. You’d be as happy with the lighting section at home depot” he announced, giving back on the teasing jokes you started.
“You won’t tell me there’s a single person on the earth that doesn’t like the lighting section at home depot.”
At that, he laughed even louder, and you weren’t really sure whether you should feel shy or offended. But your face was getting redder with every word he spoke, and your heart was beating just a bit faster at the sound of his laugh. After the circumstances the two of you met in, any interaction now felt surreal.
“What about you?” you decided to change the topic. “You had some days off because of… you know.” You vaguely pointed at his forehead. “Are you a hero now? Are you getting a raise?”
It was Jongin’s time to look awkward, and he scratched the back of his head, frowning.
“Not really, I actually got scolded for the lone investigation and camping at the museum without anyone’s approval. But since things turned out fine, I’m not really in trouble, so I guess it’s okay. It could have ended much worse.”
“If you didn’t catch me?”
“For example.” You weren’t really upset with him for doing his job, but it seemed that he was still a bit nervous mentioning it. “But, I mean, since I did catch you…” he smoothly changed the tone and pointed back at his car parked nearby. “Let’s go, I have the table booked.”
You raised your eyebrows, feeling challenged with his statement.
“Oh, really?” You huffed. “Well, this time I think I could run off pretty easily.”
Jongin pressed his lips together, as if hesitating. Then, with a mischievous smile, he leaned over, nodding downwards. You glanced down, confused, and he tilted up the edge of his jacket, displaying a pair of handcuffs secured by his belt.
You let out a small “oh”.
“Or would you rather I catch you again?”
And although this argument was enough to convince you not to dare him any further, you just had a feeling that the museum would not be the last place Jongin’s handcuffs would end up in use.
Woohoo, two fanfics in one weekend! Hope you guys enjoyed it!
FYI I'll be releasing EXO Writers Masterlist next week, so stay tunned!

FELLINGS — EXO K.J
CHAPTER TWO
Summary: You and Jongin live wanting what you two can't have. For example, he wants to win over your best friend and you want him.
Warnings: This fanfic will describe some hot romantic moments and use of inappropriate language. In the future there may be both smut and moderate use of violence. Readers are warned. This fanfic will feature some members of EXO as characters but they are not part of a Kpop group in this scenario.
CHAPTER ONE CHAPTER THREE
Tumblr media
"Engaged?" Luna asks, sounding more indignant than curious. This only confirms what you already suspected; she also has feelings for your foolish boss. Not that you can blame her. Kai is definitely something else.
"What Kai meant is that we're practically engaged. Nothing official yet, but we're about to move in together, and you know... marriage is just around the corner. But this isn't about us. It's about you guys. I just wanted to clear up this misunderstanding. Kai isn't in love with Luna. He's in love with me, but he's indeed a terrible drunk." You say, trying to smooth over the situation.
"So sorry for the confusion. I thought..." Sehun says, clearly embarrassed. Poor guy, he doesn't even know he's being deceived.
"That Kai and Luna had some unresolved romantic issue? That would be ridiculously stupid of them. But fortunately, this was just a misunderstanding." You reply, trying to send a hint to your boss and best friend. Whatever is going on between them, they should just forget about it.
"Darling, I think we should go greet some of the guests. But congratulations, Y/N and Kai. I'm sure your relationship has everything to succeed," Luna says, smiling, as she practically drags Sehun away. You finally feel the pressure of the moment.
"I don't know about you, but that's what I call teamwork. You were fantastic, all that invention..." Kai says, proud of himself, but you're not happy with any of this. So you give him a disapproving look and head out of the party.
"I must be a beautiful and pathetic idiot indeed. What a load of crap. Congratulations, Y/N, you always manage to be a clown." You mutter to yourself as you leave your best friend's engagement dinner.
"You don't need to put yourself down so much. You actually saved my skin back there; I thought Sehun was going to punch me. Not that I was scared..." Jongin says as he tries to keep up with your strides toward the parking lot, but you turn, almost bumping into each other face to face.
"Do you feel proud of being such an idiot, or are you just pretending?" Your question, as rude as it may sound, is sincerely something you're questioning. How can he act like what we did was okay?
"I don't think that's the right way to talk to your boss, Y/N. Even though we're friends, it doesn't give you the right to disrespect me." Kim Jongin says as he looks at you, and you huff in response. You then move away from him and continue heading nowhere in particular. You came to this damn engagement dinner with him, so leaving with him seems inevitable. But that doesn't stop you from looking for any taxi passing by nearby.
"I want to resign. Actually, I'm not just wanting it, I'm asking for it. You want to deceive Sehun and yourself by chasing after Luna? Go ahead, but I won't be a part of it. Enough. Years of anticipating your actions, being helpful, doing my best in the company your family built, just to become the woman who does the dirty work for you. What's the next step, huh? Marry you so you can have an affair with Luna right under Sehun's nose?" You turn to face Jongin, who seems a bit shocked by your words. Maybe until today he didn't know that you could set boundaries. But that's his problem.
"I understand that I may have crossed some boundaries. But I can't afford to lose..." Jongin seems to be trying to figure out how to say something, but you interrupt him.
"Losing your competent assistant, or your love for Luna? Maybe you don't understand things because you're used to having them in your hands all the time, but Kai, you've already lost Luna. She may kiss you in secret, or say she'll never forget you, but she's marrying someone else. And I think it's time for both of us to understand that we're not going to end up with the ones we love." You speak impulsively, only realizing seconds later that you revealed more than you intended. Damn it.
"What do you mean by that?" Kim Jongin questions as soon as you finish speaking, and you take a deep breath. This conversation just turned into a nightmare.
"I mean that while you wanted Luna, I wanted you. Which makes me a huge idiot, I know. But it's liberating to realize and let go of that. You should try it. And I'm really resigning if you're confused. So you better find another assistant, another all-time friend, and another fake almost-fiancée, because for me, I'M DONE." You say, somewhat heatedly, but hey, what better time than now to throw truths in the face of the man you're in love with. 
"You can't just say you love me and walk away. Y/N, can you please listen to me? Or at least stop running away from me?" Kai speaks, sounding tired of chasing after you. You then stop walking away from him. The truth is you didn't know where to go; you were just walking hurriedly towards nowhere. 
"What is it?" You almost shout in his direction. Looking at him, at that moment, seemed to be your greatest challenge. He looked so upset that you almost went towards him to try to console him. But that wouldn't make any sense.
"Stay with me. Don't leave me. I know we need to work out some issues in our relationship, but I don't want to have to replace you, because there's no one who can replace you. Not as an assistant, not as a friend, and certainly not as a fake almost-fiancée." Jongin says as he approaches you. His eyes locking onto yours, his words sounding sincere, almost winning you over.
"I'll give you the chance to take me home. But that doesn't mean I won't leave you. I just don't like to waste time, and waiting for a taxi seems foolish. But nothing has changed. You're without an assistant and friend. Got it, Kim Jongin?" You say as you walk towards his car now.

MINORS PLS DO NOT INTERACT. Ty so much!!!
A/n: Not sure if Y/n will have intimate scenes with everyone just yet. But I had to release this part because the sub!Jongin community is pretty dry and I need it for my mental health and clear skin.
Okay, I'm rambling.. also I'm obsessed with LET ME IN by Exo. It's been on repeat since Monday. I even play the slowed version. THE VOCALSSS.
If you enjoy my work please reblog it. I appreciate it!
SMUT BELOW THE CUT
"Where the fuck is Lee Taemin?!" You scream. You swallow hard, and your throat is raw. You walk around the lockers trying to find your main attraction for tonight. 
He knows how vital that headliner spot is. People come from far distances to see him perform.
The last thing you need is to deal with disgruntled customers tonight. 
You see Ten walk past you in a fishnet bodysuit covered in body glitter, and you grab his arm. "Hey! Where do you think you're going?"
Ten turns around with his other hand still gripping the sizeable clear trash bag of dollar bills. "Umm, I'm going to count my money in your office. What's up?" His hisses. 
"Where the fuck is your friend, Taemin?" You ask. 
"Umm.." Ten avoids eye contact and looks down at the floor. "I have no idea."
You step closer to him and are less than an inch away from him. "Look at me, Ten."
His eye contact connects with yours, and he stares at you. "Yes?"
"Where is Taemin?"
"In the parking lot with Jimin."
"Thank you, baby," you pull him closer and kiss him.
You let it linger for a bit, and then you pull away. You head out of the locker room's back door and search the parking lot for the infamous pink Lamborghini. 
You see it in the back of the parking lot and race over to the car with your heels clicking against the pavement. 
You find yourself at the passenger side window and knock on it. Taemin jumps, and grabs his chest. 
"Roll down the window, drama queen!" you yell. You want to yank him out of the car because he has been MIA for the last few hours.
Not to mention he's still in his regular clothes, and his set is coming up soon. 
"Heyyy! Y/n," Taemin greets you. 
The marijuana smoke hits your face before he can say anything else. Both of their eyes are bloodshot red, and you are irritated, to say the least. 
"Get out of the car. You're late for work!" 
Taemin fumbles with the door, and Jimin starts laughing. 
"You look nice. Y/n. Are you hiring by chance?" Jimin asks.
"Fuck, no," you spit. 
You grab Taemin's hand as he gets out of the car. 
"What's up, baby?" Taemin replies. 
 "Don't baby me! I put you on as a solo headliner for tonight and you're literally blowing it. You know I don't let you anyone go up there high or drunk."
"I know. I know. I'm not high though. I was just talking with Jimin about doing some music. He has a producer friend that can get our songs on the radio," Taemin explains. 
"Taemin, I can't let you go on stage like this. Go home."
"What?" Taemin glares at me with glossy eyes. 
"You heard me the first time. You can't come to work like this. It's the rules."
"No, c'mon this night is important."
"I can't give you special treatment just cause we're fucking. You gotta go home."
You sigh in disappointment. You wanted so much more for him. He'd worked so hard to get to that top spot. He was just as much of a crowd favorite as Kai.
Kai's departure was so unexpected. You were left scrambling to replace him.
But, that's when Taemin stepped up to the plate, and helped boost the club back to where it was when Kai was the headliner. 
"Y/n, please. C'mon."
"I said what I said."
You walk away from Taemin because you might say something you regret or can't take back if you say anything else.
You reach into your back pocket. Your hand is shaky as you stare down at your iPhone in your palm. You pull up your phone and dial your ex-husband's number. 
"Hello?"
"Jongin." 
You take a deep breath and almost hang up the phone.
But you're desperate and don't want to disappoint your customers. Especially since tonight is a packed house. 
"Yes?"
"I need a huge favor. Can you perform tonight as the headliner?"
"Y/n, you haven't talked to me in months and now you need me. Sounds like you're in a tough spot. Where's Taemin?"
"I had to send him home." You grab your keyring off your hip and open the back door. You close it behind you. 
"I'll be there in five. But, you owe me, Y/n."
"Yeah. Yeah. Thank you! Jongin."
You know you won't hear the last of it from everybody, but you are the owner of No Manners. You have to do what's best for business and put all personal feelings aside. 
You walk into your office and see Ten counting his money and clipping it together in stacks. 
"Thanks for telling me about Taemin."
"I told him to come in for work, but he doesn't listen."
"He knew how important tonight is for the club. I don't get why he would do that."
"Me either."
"But, Jongin is performing tonight."
“Jongin… Kim Jongin? Here at No Manners?”
"Yeah, he was my last choice. You already did your set tonight. I couldn't make you do a double."
"You know Taemin is going to be pissed about it."
"I don't care honestly."
"Tonight, is about to be interesting."
"Are you doing the VIP room tonight?"
"No, I'm done for tonight."
"Okay."
Ten glares at the door, and you turn around to see Jongin transformed into his alter-ego. 
Kai. 
Your jaw drops when you see him wearing that one outfit you hand-made for him that he refused to wear. His muscular tone body is even more toned than when you last saw him. 
The tan sheer materials cover his body perfectly, and the rhinestone highlights his manhood but still leaves much to the imagination. 
It looks even better than it did a year ago when you had him first put it on. 
"You look.. stunning, Jongin."
"It's Kai for tonight."
"Right," you snap back to earth and nod. "Did you give the DJ your music."
"Yeah, I'm doing a new routine."
"You still dance?"
"Not in clubs. But, I've been playing around with something. Trust me the crowd will enjoy it."
You look down at your watch. "Alright, well. Let me walk you out."
You head out of the office, and Jongin trails behind you. You are curious about what he's been up to since the divorce was finalized, but you're going to mind your business. 
"That outfit looks perfect on you."
"I know."
You and Jongin stand at the metallic string curtains, and you stare out into the crowd. Jun is wrapping up his set, and his music fades out. 
The DJ starts playing the melody of a beat you have never heard. "We got a special treat for you all tonight. Get your dollar bills out. Hell, bring out your 10s 20s and 100 dollar bills for this special guest, tonight. Everyone rise to your feet for the one and only, Kai."
After the DJ says his name, the crowd erupts into cheers, and Kai struts throughout the crowd. He goes up to a lady coming to the club since you first opened it up. 
Kai works his magic and dances on the customer, and she almost falls over. He catches her, and she screams. People start throwing cash at him. 
One of the younger strippers goes with a trash bag and starts picking up his money for him. 
Kai continues making his runs throughout the crowd and gives a couple lucky people, some special attention. He doesn't care the gender. He doesn't discriminate. 
You are quick to remember why he's always been a crowd favorite. 
Kai finally makes his way onto the stage. You watch him, and he whines his hips to the music, and you can almost get lost in his movement. 
You love the way he connects with the crowd. He always focuses on one person and sucks them into whatever he's doing.
Kai goes over to the pole and swings around it. He climbs to the top and slowly comes down.
 He rises up the pole again and swings around it. He drops down into a split, and he climbs up. The light turns off, and I head to the DJ booth, where the music still plays. 
A few moments pass, and then he's just wearing a rhinestone cover g strip. The crowd cheers even louder, and more people move closer to the stage, throwing money at him. Seeing all that money all over him, he works the pole even harder. 
Your jaw drops when you see your ex-husband in action. He's a natural for this lifestyle and the best to ever do it. 
After his set is over and he heads into his dressing room. The younger stripper walks towards his door with two large trash bags of money. 
You grab the money and knock on the door. "Come in!"
You open the door and place the oversized trash bags on the couch. You glance over to see Jongin cleaning the makeup off his face in front of the vanity. 
"Your set was amazing."
"I know. I’m sure you freaked out about the lights going out."
"Yeah, I thought something was wrong."
"You know I always know what I'm doing. You would have just talked me out of it."
"I know. I appreciate it. The club just isn't the same without you."
"I'm sure. You should let me come back."
"You know Ten and Taemin wouldn't like that."
"You're going to let them affect your business like that?"
"No, but things are calm backstage. You know you're a diva."
"You saw my fucking stage, right?" Jongin glares at you, and his gaze on you is stirring something up in you. 
"I did. You're a headliner. You've always been one. Especially since Choi Minho left. You brought something different."
"The crowd eats it up every single time."
"I know. You were amazing. You didn't miss a beat. How's life post stripper life?" You ask and sit down on the couch next to his vanity. 
"I'd be lying if I said it was easy. Too many people recognize me as a stripper. I honestly needed the money, tonight."
"If you needed help, why didn't you call me?"
Jongin laughs at your question. Why would he ask you for help? He shakes his head and wipes the glitter off his neck. 
"We haven't talked in almost five months. I wanted to put this life behind me. I didn't want to be some washed up stripper."
"You're not a washed-up stripper. You're a talented fucking dancer."
"I know but my resume is seven years an exotic dancer with you as my only reference."
"No one has called my phone. You know I would speak highly of you."
"Well, I haven't gotten any offers."
"Something will come. Listen don't worry about giving me any of the money. Keep it," You reply. 
You stand up, and Jongin stands up in front of you. He towers over you slightly by a few inches. You two are standing looking at each other. 
"I miss you."
The words uttered by Jongin feel personal and envelopes you in a way you can't describe. 
You stare into his eyes and brush his hair back from his face. His usual chocolate locks are an ashy gray hue. His beautiful face sparks something deep inside you.
This is still the Kim Jongin that knows all your deepest secrets. The man who held your hand through building this club. You were there for him when he got into dance school. So much history between the two of you. So much has happened. 
Your chest tightens, and you take a deep breath. The words are caught in his throat. 
"I miss you, too. But, we both know that the divorce was for the best."
"Because I wanted to leave this place and you didn't want to let me go. I wanted to grow past the gaze of desire. I want to be taken seriously."
"I hear you. I knew you leaving the club would affect me financially. I wasn't ready to make that move."
"Well, I will be here for the next month. So, tell your little princess Taemin that his spot is taken."
Jongin slides into his baggy jogging pants and grabs the trash bags.
You know that you need Jongin even though it will cause a rift between the other dancers. You know it's best for business. 
***
Jongin sits in his car and stares at the flashing LED light with the club's name, and he sits back in his seat. He wants to drive out of this parking lot and never return. 
But, the way they cheer his name and empty out their pockets for him is something that will have him returning back. 
Jongin arrives at home to his townhome, which is gate operated. He pulls into the front of his house. He grabs his money and heads into his home. He inserts his keys.
He tosses the bags of money at the door. He kicks off his shoes and heads upstairs to take a shower. 
Seeing you was more than emotional. He didn't know how he would respond to you. Nor did he see if he wanted to even talk to you. 
His phone lights up, and he sees a car at his gate. He lifts his phone to see a red Corvette with the top down. He hits the button to open the gate. 
What is it that you want this late? Did you come to say that you no longer need his services?
Jongin heads downstairs and opens the door. He watches you get out of the car and head up the stairs.
Your strapless jean jumpsuit dress hugs your body just right. Your red heels make you a bit taller, but still not taller than him. 
Jongin raises an eyebrow, and you lift your infamous Gucci bag packed with his favorite toys. 
"So, do you want to get fucked out here on your porch or do you want to invite me in?" You ask him. 
"Come in and fuck me."
***
You push Jongin against the couch, and he smirks at how you manhandled him.
You would be a fool to not want to fuck him after seeing him perform tonight. Everybody is probably going home to masturbate after the performance Jongin delivered tonight. 
"Jongin, my pretty boy." You lean forward and sit down on his lap cowgirl style. You whisper against his ear and nibble as you feel him rise underneath you. 
"I'm yours?" Jongin breathes out. 
"For tonight, yes." You reply. You run your red fingernails down the center of his chest. "Can I taste you? Ya know to reward you for doing such a great job tonight."
"Of course, mistress," Jongin moans. 
The aura of this man is so powerful, yet in your presence, this beauty is so submissive to you. No one would ever believe it if you told them. But, you wouldn't care. 
You move down his waist and get down onto the floor. Your knees dig into the soft light carpet supporting you. You reach up to help me get out of those sweaters. His dick springs to action because he isn't wearing any underwear.  
"Damn, you're always so hard for me," you whisper, tracing your fingers along his length.
"Fuck, I've missed you, daddy."
Jongin loves to call you different things whenever you two are intimate, but daddy is the one thing you love the most. He's the only guy to ever do it. 
"Mmm… I haven't heard that name in months." You grab his dick and swirl your tongue around the head. Your core tingles, and you work your mouth up and down on him. 
"Please.." Jongin emits a moan, and it makes your heart flutter.
This was your favorite way to see the real Jongin. With his legs spread for you and moaning and panting. You haven't even really got into it, and already you are bringing him close to his release. 
"Please? What? You like it? Or you want me to stop?" You taunt him. 
"No, please keep going. I'm not going to last," he whimpers. 
Of course, he's not. He always reacts to you so well. You love that about him. It doesn't take a lot for him to come. He's been like this since you two first fucked. 
"You know other people might not like how easily you cum, but I'm honored how fast I can make you come."
"I know.. I'm only like this with you."
You stop and sit up on your knees. You watch his eyes spring open, and he looks down at you. "Why'd you stop?"
"You need to work for that nut, sir." 
You lie back against the carpet with your legs open. Showing him you’re pretty pussy without any underwear.
You want to taste his nut on your tongue, but you want to make him work for it. You know he's always up for a challenge. 
"Eat me until I come, Nini."
Jongin doesn't hesitate, moves down on the floor, and holds onto your legs as his tongue probes your sensitive region. You can feel the heat building inside you as Jongin's skilled tongue works its magic. You moan and writhe under his touch. 
One thing about him is he knows how to please you and will do all he can to ensure you know it.
His tongue explores your slit, and he catches your juices dripping down because of how turned on you are from hearing him moan for you. 
You could get off just from hearing him moan. You have in the past, recorded the audio of two of you having sex and used it for your personal time when you were alone.
Jongin sticks a finger inside you, and your body reacts to him quickly. He pulls it out and sucks it on his finger. You love the sight of seeing feast on you. 
He pushes two fingers inside of you and does the same thing again. "I've missed your sweet taste. Nobody taste like you."
Jongin leans down and kisses your pussy. His soft lips against yours make your body jolt. He is getting lost in pleasing you. Everything he does feels so good.
You can feel the heat building up inside you as Jongin continues exploring your body with his fingers. You moan softly, lost in the pleasure he is giving you. His kisses are gentle and loving, making you feel cherished and desired.
Jongin kisses on your pearl while he fingers you. You ride his fingers until you squirt all over them. He sucks your juices off his fingers. Jongin moves down and replaces his tongue where his fingers were to slurp out the rest of your release. You grab the back of his head while he sucks the soul of your body. 
"Fuck, Jongin!" You cry out and continue to ride the wave of your orgasm. It feels too good, and now you're sensitive to the touch. You push him off of you. 
Jongin lies next to you and you get down to his dick. You are on the right side of him and sucking him faster than before.
No one has eaten your pussy like that since you were last with him, so you know he's earned the right to come. 
You stick your finger in your dripping pussy to wet your finger. You stick it into his ass. He's always liked it, especially when you give him head. 
"Shit.. you know I love when you do that, daddy, please," Jongin whines. 
Just like that, he comes so hard in your mouth, and you swallow it. You love the taste of him. You climb on top of him. 
"Tonight is just an one time, thing, okay? If you're going to be at the club for a month. I don't want us to mess around. Cool?"
"Yea, of course. We're just getting it out of system."
"Exactly."
You stand up, unzip your jean dress, and toss it on the couch. You grab your Gucci bag and head upstairs. You still have your heels on. 
You make your way to his bedroom. You grab your strap-on and put it on. You sit on the bed and wait for him to come upstairs. You pour lube on your strap-on and coat it perfectly. 
Jongin comes upstairs. He's completely nude. He gets on top of you and slides down onto your strap-on. You feel the weight of his body on top of you as he starts to move back and forth. 
You lean back against the bed and watch him bounce on it. You like watching him fuck himself on your strap. 
"You're so.. naughty. Jongin. You're fucking yourself on my strap. You missed me that bad?" You coax him. 
"Maybe," he giggles. 
You slap his ass and grab it while he continues to ride you. In some weird way, you still have feelings for him.
Something you probably won't admit to him, and you don't know how you'll be able to survive a month with him at the club. 
"Maybe? You're acting like a whore."
"Cause you make me this way."
You lift him up and hold on to him while keeping the strap inside. You lay him on the bed on his back. You hold his legs open while you stroke into him. 
"Now stroke yourself, whore," You instruct him, and he obeys you. 
You grind your hips and continue to pound his tight ass. You miss moments like this. You know he's needy for the next nut by how he's jacking his dick. 
Your hand covers his as you pump harder until him until he comes again. 
"I love you, Jongin," You lean forward and slip your tongue into his mouth. 
"I love you, too, Daddy."
The two of you fall asleep in his bed, and the following day you wake up. Jongin still is sleeping, and you sit on the edge of the bed. 
You look at your group chat with The Lee Twins. 
Ten: Where are you? Y/n
Taemin: Damn, you didn't come home last night. Are you really that mad at me? I'm really sorry, Y/n. 
You: It's okay. You're spot is being replaced for the month. I'll see you two soon. 
You know things are about to get crazy, but you know Jongin can take the club to new heights.

Top 5 ChoiBaek headcanons (those that are on your mind 24/7) 🦊🐯
From here
I know there was another question before this one, but I was too excited about this one alskdjfsdf
I have many, but here are the ones off the top of my head in no particular order. It's hard to choose a favorite
1. Choi Jongin and Baek Yoonho kiss a lot
Not on-the-lips kisses as much (though I do think they would do that too. Full makeout sessions and everything), but more chaste kisses
For Jongin, he mostly kisses Yoonho on the forehead/top of his head (at Yoonho's not-so-subtle request) when Yoonho is sitting down while Jongin is standing. Or Jongin is sitting on Yoonho's lap. That's also very nice :3c
For Yoonho. Pretty much everywhere. Jongin's forehead, top of his head, his eyes, his neck, down lower too, but I won't get into that. Yoonho likes to smother Jongin with kisses, much to Jongin's embarrassment
2. Choi Jongin has a white tiger plushie
I like to think that Yoonho got the white tiger plushie for Jongin after they got together. Not too big, about the size of a regular pillow. Huggable and easily carriable sized
And Jongin keeps it with him all the time when he's at home and Yoonho isn't. Hugs it all the time when he's sleeping when Yoonho's not around for him to hug
Jongin got some little clothes that look like Yoonho's clothes to put on the plushie sometimes too
3. Baek Yoonho gets flowers for Choi Jongin often
Not often enough for Jongin's office or their home to be crowded with them, but enough for both places to always have new flowers around when the old ones start to wilt
Typically flowers that range from the lightest pink to the darkest red. Usually roses, but also a variety of flowers sometimes. Flowers that remind Yoonho of Jongin. Not a huge bouquet, but a small one with about half of a dozen flowers
I like to think when he can, Yoonho waits outside for Jongin to finish his work (Jongin definitely finishes work later than Yoonho. A workaholic this man is). So Jongin walks out of his guild building to the sight of Yoonho smiling at him while holding the flowers
Jongin teases him about getting him flowers, but they both know Jongin greatly enjoys the flowers when Jongin always puts the flowers in vases and tries to keep them alive as long as possible
4. Baek Yoonho hugs Choi Jongin a lot
I imagine that Jongin isn't used to physical affection much, so he doesn't initiate them a lot. Yoonho is though, so he hugs and holds Jongin whenever he gets the chance to
Jongin gets very flustered at first but eventually gets used to it. I imagine that they're very physically affectionate further into their relationship, at least in private. I do like to imagine that they secretly hold hands in public when they can though
And when they're sleeping, Jongin's always the one snuggled and wrapped up in the blanket they share with one of Yoonho's arms around him, holding him tightly
5. Choi Jongin always admired Baek Yoonho from when the gates first appeared
I'm working off of game canon and going with how Yoonho awakened in the first year of the gates appearing and Jongin awakened six years after the gates appeared
Jongin likely follows the news closely and pays attention to those with whom it would be good for him to make connections. While I think Jongin started to look into Yoonho for more business reasons, I do think Jongin started to admire Yoonho for who he was (as his public appearances are not that different from how he actually is), especially when Yoonho ended up leaving the Fiend Guild to create his own guild
(Maybe Jongin talked to Yoonho even before Jongin awakened. Hmmm. I'll need to think about that more)
This is a bit more of a wild headcanon, but I have the thought that Jongin's morals are widely different from Yoonho's morals, and Jongin knows it (Yoonho probably does too). And I think that Jongin admires Yoonho's noble side while also being critical of his own morals and actions (probably has done and will continue to do certain things that are considered more morally grey)
(Also part of why I think Jongin took a while to confess his feelings to Yoonho. Jongin might not really think he’s morally compatible with Yoonho and thinks it would be better if Yoonho was with someone kinder and more loving
Yoonho just got "being annoyed" confused with "cute aggression." Simple mistake, especially with the kinds of comments Jongin would make)
I definitely have more, but I can't remember the others that well. These live in my mind rent-free though

↳ 𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒕𝒔 ༉‧₊ [ jongin plot pt. 4]
Tumblr media
cw: this is meant to start like the day after jongin tells channie! violence
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jongin has been summoned to the pack house, his brother's house... his former home. It's the night of the full moon and they've decided that they are going to talk about what had happened and see if the pack can get some proper closure for the loss of their former Alpha.
Nobody thought he was alive, it had been years and the story was that Jongin and his father were ambushed by hunters while training that night but... there were some who didn't believe it. They never found the body, nobody heard gunshots and why did it take Jongin so long to get back to the house.
Where was he?
"I'm coming with you!" Channie says, not taking no for an answer, and pulls the wolf out of his racing thoughts as his boyfriend takes his hand. "You didn't think you were going alone, right?"
Laughing softly, Jongin shakes his head before wrapping his arm around Channie and pulling him in for a brief hug. "No but I didn't want to burden you with this either. I know it'll be awkward around the pack and I didn't want you to feel uncomfortable."
"Are you going to feel uncomfortable?" The question throws his off, making him pause for a moment before he nods, "then why would I let you deal with this by yourself?"
Sometimes, Channie surprised him. While usually always so chatty and bubbly, usually more easy-going and energetic, Jongin sometimes forgets that Channie can be protective over those he loves and is also an Alpha himself. He forgets that Channie, while always his sweet and loving boyfriend, isn't only a puppy who loves his energy drinks and hyper-fixating on new hobbies before they end up in the hobby graveyard.
Channie is his grounding. The one who keeps him steady, at ease, calm.
"Of course, you'll be there puppy," Jongin presses a kiss on his lips before pulling away and grabbing his keys. "We just need to make a stop on the way."
Tumblr media
The wolves pull up to a familiar house, the car sitting in the driveway indicating that the couple is home - that's his hope anyway.
"Do you think she can help?" Channie wonders as Jongin gets out of the car.
Humming, Jongin waits for Channie to follow him before heading to the door. "There must be a reason why she didn't have everything disappear completely. If I can just get through this without having to tell Hui or the pack the truth then..." It might be cowardly, he should take accountability for what he did but Jongin can't. He can't look his brother in the eyes and tell him he killed their father because he wouldn't understand.
Jongin's always felt like he was a monster for what he did - this would simply confirm it.
"If not, then I'll just figure it out."
The door opens before they even manage to knock and are greeted by a not-too-happy Chris with Irene walking up behind him. "Jongin, Channie darling, come in." She leads them to the small office she has set up, talking as they walk because it's clear on Jongin's face that he's surprised she was waiting for him. "Jangmi called, she told me that your father has been found."
"Why did you let it him be found?" Jongin asks as soon as he sits down. It's clear that he's anxious all over again, having tried to hide it well but anyone who knows him can see it. It's written all over his face, the guilt, the anxiety of having his crime revealed and not knowing how to get out of it alive. "Why couldn't you have had his body completely disappeared, never to be seen again? You can do that, right? The great Devil who, for the right price, will give you what your heart desires. Why did he have to be found?"
Chris leans against the door frame, arms folded over his chest as he eyes Jongin, a warning growl sounding deep within his chest while Irene calmly shakes her head. He looks almost like he did that day he ran into the club, soaked, filthy and ready to give anything to make a deal with her.
Honestly, her heart ached for him. Abused by his father and turned into a monster, his words, she wanted to give him a chance at a better life.
"Closure."
The word both infuriates him and surprises him which is expected. "Are you fucking serious?" Chris is immediately between Jongin and Irene as soon as Jongin stands up, Channie panics slightly, looking between the two wolves and then over at Irene, who is sitting calmly as tension builds. "You allowed this to be brought back up so that I could get closure? I would have been just fine without this shit being thrown back in my face!"
"Check your fucking tone." Chris warns, deep growls rumbling loudly in the space of the small room.
"Nini..." Channie shakes a little in his seat, reaching for his hand to try and settle his boyfriend down. "Please..."
He's not in the mood to be calmed down. It's not that it's Channie's fault, it's not that it's even Irene's fault really, Jongin just... this whole situation is too much. He didn't want to have to deal with this ever again, he wanted it buried deep like his dad should have been but instead, he's desperately trying to figure out how to get through this unscathed. Jongin knows it's not smart, he knows he really shouldn't take it out on anyone but with Chris in his face and the tension - he's not thinking straight.
Tugging his hand out of Channie's, Jongin shoves Chris back, lips curling up in a snarl. "Back the fuck off me, man."
It happens so fast, faster than they could have predicted but... is it really unexpected? Chris and Jongin have been one wrong move away from getting into it for a while now, barely tolerating each other for the sake of Channie.
The two wolves are at each other's throats. Chris having lunged at Jongin, a punch thrown that just managed to land, and Jongin retaliates with his own offensive attacks. Their range is limited, the room not large enough to allow them to get a good hit in but they try; teeth gnashing, a few hits landing as they grapple with each other in an effort to get the upper hand.
In a brief moment that they part, Channie quickly tries to pull Jongin back only to get pushed aside. It's an accident, he wasn't thinking but it's too late when the wolf stumbles back and ends up falling over. "Ow-"
Hearing the small yelp and the clatter of Channie falling over the chairs, Jongin stops. "Channie-" A solid punch lands right on his jaw, knocking him back a few steps as Chris moves so he's separating the two, breathing heavily as his anger increases. "Get out of the way," Jongin warns, fist clenching before looking at Channie, the younger looking extremely worried. "Puppy, I'm sorry..." A strong shove has his back against the wall with Chris closing in and while he's itching for a fight - guilt sets in and Jongin feels like he deserves whatever Chris dishes out.
"My love," Irene says softly as Chris grabs Jongin by the collar, "that's enough, hm?"
It takes a moment, a long, agonising moment before Chris pushes away with a threatening growl. "Don't disrespect her again." Jongin nods once as Chris makes his way towards Irene, the woman still sitting in her chair while the large wolf takes his place beside like a loyal guard dog.
Channie rushes over to Jongin and it doesn't take long for the older's arms to be wrapped around him tightly, soft apologies being muttered over and over again as he begs for forgiveness. It was an accident, of course it was, but it never should have happened. He should have had better control over himself and because he didn't - Channie could have gotten seriously hurt. "I'm okay," his voice is muffled as Jongin squeezes him tightly, "I promise."
He should know better, be better, but instead he's still that same scared and reactive wolf who murdered his father.
"You need closure, Jongin." Irene says finally, reaching to hold Chris' hand so that his posture loosens up. "It's been years and you've never worked through what happened, it's controlled you - he's controlled you all this time and the guilt that has come with it... why do you think I never asked for your soul that day?" Jongin swallows as he remembers Irene asking him to work off his debt rather than sell his soul. "I didn't need to because you were so consumed with your guilt that I knew eventually, you'd make your way down." Irene shakes her head, "your father was an abusive, disgrace of the word who constantly belittled you and pushed you to a breaking point. You defended yourself against a monster and happened to come out on top. At the time, I didn't care about that, about your reasons or what would happen to you."
"Then what changed?"
Irene smiles softly, almost motherly, "then I realised that you didn't deserve to be there. Hell is to punish souls, torment those with their own guilt or whom have done monstrous things. You clearly punished yourself enough and you are not a monster so I decided that you should be allowed redemption, closure, a future without that moment hanging over your head."
Running his hand over his face, Jongin groans, feeling like a headache is coming on. "So you think that forcing me to deal with this will somehow make all of this better?"
"Not better but it will finally give you the chance to heal and let go without it hanging over you constantly." Her words, while they piss him off, make sense. Jongin could fight and argue and say he doesn't need this to move forward from what happened but if that was the case, wouldn't he have been able to do so?
He allowed what happed to control his life, kept him from believing in himself and kept him from feeling comfortable within his own pack. He's allowed it to hinder everything and he'd be lying if he said that it didn't feel good to have finally told Channie about it - like a weight off his shoulders.
Minutes of silence pass, hearts beat in different rhythms as everyone remains quiet, waiting for Jongin or Irene to break the silence. "So," Jongin says slowly, "what's going to happen when I go there and they learn the truth? They'll want me dead for killing their Alpha."
Tilting her head, Irene has a knowing look in her eyes as she shares something that Jongin should have known all this time - something he would have figured out if he wasn't so afraid of the consequences. Something that changes everything for him.
And his former pack.

Case Closed: Chapter One | Sehun
Tumblr media
Genre: slow-burn romance, angst, mystery/crime
Summary: As the only person willing to take on this wild goose chase of a 10-month ongoing missing persons case, you have your head in your hands trying to figure out why 20 girls and counting have suddenly disappeared. You can't give up now that another girl has just joined that number. Good thing that your persistent crime reporter friend Oh Sehun won't let you quit either.
Word Count: 6.4k
T/W: minor violence, kidnapping, crime, uhhh not edited i'm sorry
A/N: I'M SOOOOO SORRY!!!!!! I've been on hiatus for 3 years LOLOLOLOL then i found this in my vault since may 4th, 2020 and i felt so bad that i wrote literally 3.5k words to finish this first chapter so i can just get it out. i have the whole thing fleshed out.......... i'm so sorry 🙈 also i don't really use this blog anymore but i figured i will just to get out everything again HAHAHA i do not expect this to get any traction at all but if you enjoy it then 🥺❤️
It started like any other day, which was a real cliché to put it. You walk into the station with your usual heavy eyelids and even heavier shoulders. Sleep was something you’d given up when you first started working as a detective, but the word was definitely out of your dictionary when you picked up the case. Most of your colleagues wouldn’t pick up the case. Mainly because they knew you’d be the first one to take it. However, after ten months you still haven’t found any new leads. Six months of chasing after ghosts and you always returned emptyhanded.
This morning, you had something into your hands. Flung into them, rather. A coffee and a file, courtesy of Jongin. Normally there’d be a smile gracing his face and a joke soon to follow to lighten up your mood. Instead there was a frown as he motioned down at the file in your hands.
“That’s number 21.”
You’re grim and you know it’s very apparent. How could you not be with the numbers stacked this high? You mumble a thanks and allow Jongin to linger a bit. He wants to say something, and you know it, but you also know he’s conflicted about whether or not he should continue bothering you.
“Jongin, I’m not dropping the case.”
He purses his lips and takes a tactical sip of his own coffee. After a moment to find the right words he sighs. “I know. I wouldn’t dream of trying to rip you away from that.”
A dry chuckle leaves you and you shake your head almost dotingly at your junior. “Of course.” You point a pen towards the office everyone knew too well after getting chewed out at least thrice. “But that doesn’t mean she won’t. She’s been on my ass for a while.” You’ve joked with your peers about the Boa Constrictor keeping you in her hold until you concede, but you’d never been on the receiving end of it until now. Except you definitely weren’t about to let go of this case.
There’s a moment of silence while he tries to come up with something else to say and you busy yourself with the new file. You curse when you look at the girl’s photo and information. “She’s only 15.” Jongin hums and scans over the information with you. He takes her photo out from beneath the paperclip and holds it up to the board where there were faces of 20 other girls on them.
“She doesn’t look like any of the others.”
“Not at all. She’s got some similar features to some, but… there isn’t a type.”
“If they even are getting kidnapped.” You scoff at that before taking the photo and thumbtacking it to the board. “Not that I’m saying you’re on a wild goose chase or anything, but…” He takes another sip of his coffee. You know the mug is empty. “21 girls who don’t have any connection to each other besides living in the same city… It’s really difficult to determine if they’re all being kidnapped or just-”
“Runaways, I know.”
“Look, they’re all around the ages too. Teen angst, wanting to start fresh in another city, eloping with a secret lover.” He sighs wistfully and moves to take another sip until he remembers his empty cup. “21 girls. No relation. Some of them did sports, but it’s a range. Some of them are in the same school district, but they have different schedules. Two of them lived in the same neighborhood, but that’s in a whole block of apartments.”
Your eyes linger at the girl’s face a couple seconds longer. You’ve heard it too many times by all the others to know that Jongin is implying they could be all coincidences. People runaway all the time, it’s true. You’ve definitely closed those sorts of cases and convinced a couple of them to work it out and return home. You just wish you had some concrete proof that this was different.
Jongin turns away, about to leave and continue his own work after getting more coffee. “I’ll get out of your hair now, but I’m just worried about you. You’re losing a lot of sleep for someone who looks like they’re chasing their own tail. Take care of yourself.” He’s off before you can bark a word at him, and you roll your eyes to yourself.
You take a sip of the coffee he’d given to you moments prior, but it had gotten cold since then. It was still a bit of a kickstart to your day anyhow. You had the cases of 21 missing girls all over the city resting on your shoulders. It was a miracle you got any sleep at all. You tried your hand at anything. Possible gang relations or involvements or some group or organization, and yet you found no link. Like you said earlier, there didn’t seem to be a type that was targeted as the girls were mainly different appearance wise. You’d even thought to consider some underground sex ring, but the information you’ve collected about some of them didn’t fit the bill.
There were a couple girls who were taken in their own homes. They had been the ones living alone, except one who was taken while her three roommates were all home. They had chalked it up to her not feeling well and when they decided to check up on her, she was gone. It just didn’t sit right with you that they had done everything according to their routine and yet they supposedly just ran away. Most didn’t seem to have any motive at all to do so according to their friends and family. Even though you knew everybody’s got secrets and skeletons to hide you knew that was the truth. It was a gut feeling, but it wasn’t enough.
A buzzing noise came from your pocket and you whip your phone out to see what notification it was this time. A random message from one of your friends on social media popped up. You wanted to swipe it away, but you decided against it and opened it up. It was a friend from college who had found some old photo of the two of you at some party, dressed up with a lot of skin showing but even more teeth on display. Back then the lack of sleep you had was because of the constant studying and partying, or rather taking some free booze and dipping when you got bored. It was still fun to socialize and watch everyone stumble dumbly, though. You responded back quickly by telling her to forward it to you. Before you pocketed your phone, you retyped your passcode to unlock the phone again and went into your contacts. Thinking about college reminded you of somebody.
The moment you stepped out you heard a familiar “Hello?”
“Hi, Mrs. Kim. Just checking in like I always do.” You could almost hear the smile in the woman’s face. Tension immediately left your shoulders the moment you heard her coo your name softly. It was like it was never there at all.
“I haven’t heard from you in a while. I was just beginning to think you’d never call.” She laughs easily at her tease. She knew you would call. You always did. “I was just thinking about you actually. I heard there was another one…”
A sigh leaves your lips and you pinch the bridge of your nose before you answer. “Yeah, it’s been a rough couple of months hasn’t it?” She hums in response and you can hear her shuffling papers around, most likely sorting through the mail you know she never opens and gets to once a month at least. She pauses and you can hear her set the large pile down.
“Of course. Five months without my baby? She’s supposed to be starting school in a couple months. She was so excited when she got accepted. They have the best music program in the state, you know.” You knew all too well that her daughter was to be going to school at the best music school in the state. You listened to some of her recordings before after her mother had shown you. You like to think that it was just because of a mother’s pride, but you think it was to hear her daughter’s voice again as she talks through the piece and giggles at a small slip up in one of them.
It almost pained you that you couldn’t find her with what you had now. You were still as clueless as you were when she had gone missing five months ago.
“I’ll find her soon. I know I will. The next time you won’t get to see her is when you have to move her into the dorms. I promise you.” It was an unsure promise, to convince the both of you that you’d get it done. And soon. The shift from a lighthearted conversation had gotten grim fast. Those conversations had typically over the lunches you had with Mrs. Kim. She was the first case of this bunch and also the most optimistic of the friends and family. You felt that you had to keep her updated and in turn she continued to put her trust in you.
“I know. She’s counting on you; I just know it. She knows you’ll get it done somehow.” The words strike you in your core. That’s right, there’s a lot of people counting on you right now. One more family just got added to the list this morning. You try not to think about the handful of others that decided to have you stop looking after they’ve given up that their daughters would come back. It pained you to have them retract their hope enough to have you close their cases, but you wouldn’t stop even if they asked you. You didn’t want to have to leave them in the dark while their daughters were missing. Lord knows you were considering a murderer, but no bodies had turned up to your relief. You just hoped you didn’t have to continue praying for it not to happen.
The call ended quickly, and you spent the next couple of hours going over your information and collecting information from the family of the newest missing girl. She was hanging out with friends when she was all of a sudden separated from the group at the mall. It was a busy place, but camera footage and eyewitnesses last saw her roaming in a store before her trail goes cold. This was frustrating. Rumors had spread about the girl going missing already, but since she was a teen most people assumed that she just ran away. She was pretty social according to her friends, and they just chalked it up to her personality and hanging with the wrong crowd. You decided to ponder over it on your lunch break, calling up your regular lunch partner to meet you at some café a couple blocks away.
Sehun doesn’t have to wave you over for you to sit down at the table you know he’s already at. It’s almost a ritual, to eat at this café every other week and sitting at the same table, nonetheless. He smiles warmly at you and pushes a plate towards you. “I already ordered for you. And don’t worry, I paid for it as a thank you for last time.” You mumble your thanks with a mouthful of food, briefly remembering the time you covered for his ride home after one drink too many.
“You’re godsent, you know that?” His smile turns into a smirk at that and you roll your eyes when you see you’ve stoked his ego. “Before you say ‘I know’, take out that notepad.” His smirk drops and a look of concentration comes onto his face.
“You know, sometimes I like to think you keep eating lunch with me because you like me or that we’re friends or something. But I also tend to think you only keep me around for my work.” He’s teasing you again and you tap the top of his notepad.
“You’re very much aware how much I like having you around. And I’m very much aware about how much you love to collect the information. Sometimes I think you only come back to hang out with me is because I’m not as tightlipped as some of my peers and give you things you can actually report on.” Sehun chuckles at that and the crinkle around his eye is back with that childlike glimmer in the eyes. He looks a lot more at ease than his funky smirk and that impish gleam instead.
He uncaps his pen with his mouth, his other hand busy flipping to a brand-new page and holding a worn notepad with too many torn papers taken from it. He keeps the cap in his mouth and hums for you to signal he’s ready.
“She’s 15.” His eyebrows furrow and a lisped curse slips out of him as he jots it down. He shakes his head sadly at that. “Last seen at the mall with her friends. Eyewitnesses say that she was roaming one of the stores alone before she disappeared. Camera footage doesn’t pick her up leaving the mall, but it’s been picked clean.”
“Has her friends or family said anything about behavior? Being more secretive or distant lately?” Sehun’s habit of keeping the pen cap in his mouth makes his words very mumbled and hard to understand. However, being around him and working with him so often has gotten you used to his silly sounded sentences. You still reach over to pluck it from his lips and snicker that his playfully annoyed glare.
“You don’t think I’ve asked? No, parents and friends claim that nothing was up. They let me in her room and let me search to find any hidden notes. Even let me look through her diary and it was just about some kid drama at school. Seemed ordinary to me, nothing that made me have to investigate this drama. She’s not a part of it anyways, just commenting about how it’s the talk of the halls and dumb.”
Sehun taps the pen against his cheek while your fingers are fiddling with the cap. He’s obviously not to report your words verbatim as it’s not really relevant, but he does appreciate how you share your findings with him. He appreciates your trust in him that he doesn’t skew the details or add too much personal information about these people. He appreciates how you let your thoughts wander with him. You tend to loosely think around him, bouncing ideas off of him every so often or word vomiting to better understand things as you try to explain.
You’d finished with your food while Sehun continues writing and jotting down notes, most likely questions or other tidbits not too concerning for you. Whenever he asks a question he needs for the article you respond and then nudge his plate so that he eats. It goes on like this a couple moments longer until he’s out of food and questions. He finishes jotting down whatever else he wants to and sticks the tip of his pen out to you. You, used to this procedure, cap his pen and look back up into his satisfied eyes. You scoff at his smug look and avoid his gaze as he rests his chin in his hand. He continues to stare at you while you pick at any crumbs you find interesting.
“Got everything you need?”
“How about we get some dessert?” You almost object and tell him you should be back by now until he starts collecting his things and getting out of his seat. “And don’t worry. I’ll pay. You just have to pay me back next time.” You sink lower into your seat in defeat and groan, rubbing your hands over your face. He laughs a little and stands behind your seat, grabbing your shoulders and shaking you lightly. “Come on, Sugar. You’re gonna need some sugar to keep functioning the rest of the day.”
“You and your dumb nicknames are going to kill me before the stress from this case will.” He stops shaking you and gives you a fond squeeze of your shoulders.
“Let’s go before you die on me then.” You turn in your seat to watch him head towards the door before deciding to follow suit and grunting when you do get up. There’s a mini pep in his step and you’re guessing that’s because Sehun has another excuse to visit that favorite bakery of his that a friend of his works at. You couldn’t blame him. There were some doughnuts and cupcakes that were to die for.
As you passed by, you saw some missing persons posters hung up in some alley walls or taped to some lampposts. You’re guessing that’s how Mrs. Kim got news of the missing girl before you caught up with her. Sehun notices your gaze following the long trail of posters, most likely hung up by the gang of girls that were last with their friend. “Is that her?” The both of you come to a stop in front of a small cluster of the posters. He takes on down and holds it out in front of the both of you. You nod and Sehun folds the paper into fours and pockets it for later. “That saves me having to dig around to put that in the paper.”
He tries to keep the mood up as he hums a tune, swinging his arms around and looking around at the people walking the streets. It does little to help, but you do appreciate the thought as he glances at you every now and then to check in. He’s switched songs so many times since he opts for a different, better tune to keep him occupied. You’re trying to decipher his fifth song switch when you finally make it to the bakery.
“Kyungsoo!” Sehun sings into the shop as the door chimes noisily. Luckily, Kyungsoo isn’t tending to any customers at the moment. He pops his head out from behind the counter with a blank face and his lips drawn into a straight line. However he may look, there’s a happy sparkle in his eye at the sight of you two.
“What do you want now?” He asks sarcastically but readies himself anyways.
“I want something with chocolate.” Sehun says as he scans the overhead menu even though he knows exactly what he wants. “Please.” He doesn’t forget to add with a warm smile, which Kyungsoo returns in kind. They both turn to you expectantly and you sputter, not having anything in mind just yet.
“O-Oh! I’ll, uh… I’ll have…” You pause and bite your lips. Suddenly, you’re overwhelmed by all the choices even though you’ve been here before.
“How about some donut holes? And if you don’t like it, you can always have some of mine,” Sehun offers as he turns that warm smile to you.
“What, trying to stick with that cops eat donuts type of thing?” You joke but are grateful at the distraction from you bumbling about. Kyungsoo lets out an amused huff and prepares something for you both of you, making sure to toss in a couple extra pieces in the bag for you. You give him a silent thanks as you nod and take the bag from him as Sehun whips out his wallet in a practiced manner.
The first bite of the donut hole is full of cinnamon and a little honey. Kyungsoo’s been experimenting and you hum at the taste as you squeeze the half-bitten donut hole. As Sehun’s card is ringing up he turns to you with an eyebrow as he wordlessly asks how it tastes. Instead, you offer him the rest of your bite while you chew, and he instantly opens up his mouth to eat the rest. It’s almost like you’ve done this a million times in your life and a million more in your past lives together; you’ve known each other for that long, you think. The motion is easy and simple as he hums and turns back to collect his card and compliments Kyungsoo’s creation with his mouth full.
“It’s good. I like the new flavors, it’s better than just the boring sugar on it.” The words are muffled and both you and Kyungsoo give him a judgmental look as he wipes some of the cinnamon off the corner of his lips.
“… Thank you. I’ve been slowly trying to add more to the menu where I can,” Kyungsoo notes, and you look up again at the menu to see he’s added another couple options beside his regular few in his neat handwriting. He smiles at you again when you look back down. “Keep up the good work. Don’t push yourself, okay?”
You promise him and Sehun gently nudges you to turn and leave so he has a better exit path. It’s not like he couldn’t have gone around you, but it seems he opted to just turn and go. And with his broad shoulders, it seemed you were in his path. You nudge him back as you exit the bakery with your treats in hand.
“What are you doing tonight?” Sehun asks with his mouth full again, this time from a bite of his chocolatey pastry. Crumbs fly in the air and the snort as they do so, but your friend knows no shame and continues to look at you expectantly.
You roll your eyes with a smile. “Probably looking over the case again… and waaay more paperwork than I’m happy with.”
He hums at that as he continues to walk you back to the station. You feel like he’s about to ask you something else, but you’re cut off by your phone ringing and his own buzzing with a couple messages.
“Breaks over.” He comments with a sigh as he scrolls through the messages and tries to type back with the same hand that grips his phone.
“It is.”
The both of you look at each other and trade another bite of each other’s treats. You took a bite of his mainly since you wanted something sweet, and he had his own bite since you felt like you had to repay him for it. He gives you a wave as he, thankfully, doesn’t shout with his mouth full of donut as he heads off to his office building. While you head back, you manage to catch the phone call on its last couple of rings before it could go to voicemail.
“Hello?”
“It’s Boa. You have a couple more files on your desk regarding the girls,” she says with a tired sigh. You know the chief thinks this is wasting time and resources, but you also know she wants to give these girls justice. “Some more schedules of their routines, some stuff they had upcoming, and some chat histories. There’s also someone waiting at the station to talk to you, a friend of the most recent one.”
“I’m on my way.”
“Good,” she states and hangs up the call. You huff and make your way back to the station with a quickened pace. You wonder what this friend has to say since you’ve interviewed the family and teachers recently. Your mind is still reeling with possibilities when you make it back and find a familiar face at your desk.
“Yena, what can I do for you?” You ask kindly as you take a seat by the high school girl. She has a puffiness around her eyes that indicate she hasn’t been able to get a lot of sleep and has probably been crying a lot. You offer her some of your donut holes and she politely declines by holding a hand up before thinking of the right words to say.
Yena was the same age as her missing friend, 15 with a short bob and still wearing her school uniform. You’re wondering if she skipped school to come here, and she confirms your suspicions as she wrings her hands. “I just give you these. I found these in Chae’s locker, it’s some of her notebooks and some flyers. These events are all in the past, but one of them is her dream journal. We both keep one to achieve our dreams, except she doesn’t share hers because she thinks that the dream won’t come true then.”
You take the stack of papers and notebooks from her, eyeing the one she was referring to. It can’t be mistaken with the doodling, stickers, glitter, and large words that say ‘DREAM JOURNAL!’ right on the front.
“Thank you, Yena.” You say kindly, knowing that you’ll have even more to sort through and probably come out empty handed with, but every little bit helps. If you could be armed with even that much of a toothpick, you’d count it as a win.
“I just want my best friend to come back. That’s all I’ve been writing about in mine! I want her to come home.” Her eyes water and you push a box of tissues to her. She takes a shaky breath and dabs at her eyes gently and you realize that her eyes are redder than you thought. She dabs to prevent further irritating her eyes that have been covered in makeup to hide just how bad she’s been taking it.
“I promise, you won’t need a journal to make that come true, okay?” You say gently and comfort the poor girl. It’s another 15 minutes before she gets up and leaves, going back to school she promises.
You sigh as you look at the stack of notebooks she gave you. It was all her school notebooks besides her dream journal, which you knew wouldn’t be much of a look through unless you wanted to relieve your high school days and quiz yourself on whatever the kids were learning these days.
“You know, you shouldn’t be promising things like that.”
“Jongin, that girl was crying.”
“And you don’t think she won’t be if you can’t deliver that promise?”
You clench your hands into fists, narrowing your eyes on the word that seems to be mocking you right now. Because it might be true, you can only ‘DREAM!’ that this will all come to a happy end. Jongin sighs and pats your back.
“I’ll help you get through like 3 of those. Make sure it’s all just random notes so you know if they have anything that’s not about some ancient literature piece, okay?” He asks gently and you take a deep breath.
“Okay,” you say quietly and start sorting through the flyers first.
A lot of them are of school events, cram school, auditions for some of the modeling or singing agencies, and one was even a poster of an actor you recognized from a popular drama currently. You chuckled as you saw the sticky note still attached to it that indicated Chae’s wishes to marry a guy like him. A couple more hours pass in between you checking the notebooks, painstakingly flipping through and reading every page just to make sure, and having to deal with other logistical tasks around the office.
Like promised, Jongin eventually makes it through the notebooks and puts them all on your desk with a sad shake of his head. “Math, English, and Composition. All notes, most of it is textbook and following what they did in class. Anything else was practice problems or doodles. These are no good.”
You groan and hang your head. “I’ve just barely gotten through her other two notebooks. A music one from a piano unit and one she kept solely for cram school. The flyers are all past events or just random ones that I think were trash and she never got to throw away.” You look pointedly at the crumpled up flyer that was from her school’s ‘Fish Club’… whatever that’s about. “Had to get through all the other files from the girls too… nothing new. I saved that dream journal for last.”
“Why, so you can honor making sure her dreams come true?” Jongin asks with a smile, lifting your spirits some.
“Yeah…” You trail off absently. You aren’t sure if maybe you were truly keeping up Yena and Chae’s superstition about their dream journals or if you were hoping that the last thing you got to would prove you some substantial evidence. Maybe you should’ve gotten to that first if so. But then you would’ve needed to spend extra time on it. Ugh! Another sigh makes it way out of you and Jongin frowns now.
“Save that for tomorrow. How about you come out with some of us for some drinks tonight? Get that tension off you.” Jongin gives you an expectant look as he sits on your desk. You rub your face and look up at him through your fingers as you slouch in your chair. “And don’t even think about getting to that journal tonight. Your brain is fried, you need a break, you’re burning yourself out.”
You purse your lips at him and groan again, this time throwing your head back over the top of your desk chair and spinning in it a little.
“Fine. But only for a little bit.”
Famous last words. It was not just a little bit. Jongin kept you entertained and kept handing you drinks as you listened to your peers share drunken stories. Even Jongdae came in for a little bit to say hi to everyone and cry a little about his wife and kid, showing everyone pictures. You were sure that he was sober and just living the high of life.
A twinge of jealousy shot through you at him being able to enjoy his life so much right now. You downed your drink and stared at the empty cup grumpily. You felt just like the cup. Maybe you are a cup. Did your legs always feel like that?
“Woah, you doing okay?” Jongin asks as he gets into your space to take a look at you. He was pretty tipsy, but doing way better than you right now. Both in spirits and sobriety.
“Jongiiiiin, I’m like this cup.” He has to jump back a little as you shove your cup in his face. “You see how it’s wet on the outside?”
“From the ice?” He asks with a raised brow.
“I’m all sweaty!” You shout at him, suddenly feeling like the room is a lot hotter.
“No, you’re not.”
“Look! Feel!” You try to grab his hand to bring it up to your forehead and he grimaces. He shakes his head and you try a couple more times before he pins your hand to the table and reaches for his phone. “What are you doing?”
“Getting you home,” he says as he scrolls in his contacts. You try to look at the screen to see who he’s calling, but he brings the phone straight to his ear and turns a skeptical eye on you to make sure you don’t keep trying to bring his hand to probably stick you in the eyes.
You’re too distracted by pouting to care who he’s talking to. And your head hurts. The alcohol is hitting you fast. How much did you have again? Or was it because you drank the rest of your three-fourths of a cup in less than a minute? When was the last time you even drank like this? Since before you took on the first case ten months ago?
“He’s coming in 15,” Jongin says in your ear. You pop your head up from the table. You didn’t even know you had it down on the table in the first place.
“Who?” You ask sluggishly as you try to keep your eyes open. You don’t bother hearing a reply as you quickly make your way to the bathroom. It’s quieter in there, and colder too. You feel better already by giving yourself some space and time to think for yourself. Not really feeling like you need to get everything out just yet, you lean against the wall and take some deep breaths.
Eventually, there’s a knock on the door and a call for your name. It takes a couple more tries before you push yourself off the wall and wash your face.
“Oh, good. I thought I was going to have to pull your head out of a toilet bowl.”
You yell out in shock, water flinging everywhere when you look up to see Sehun in the mirror.
“What are you doing here?” Water drips off your chin and you remember that you were washing your face. You sigh and see if any got on your shirt – a lot did – and look for the paper towels to wipe.
“At the bar or in the bathroom?” He asks. You grunt in response, eyes blocked by the soggy paper you’re using to scrub the water from your eyes. “Jongin told me you had too much and needed to be brought home. And again, I was making sure you didn’t decide to punish yourself and give yourself a swirlie.”
“Why would I do that?” You grumble at him. Your head was a lot clearer thanks to the rest, you probably spent all of Jongin’s promised 15 minutes against that wall. Plus, the water cooling you off made you feel like you could at least walk to a car before passing out.
“He said you looked sad.”
“I’m not sad.”
He gives you a once over. Hair a mess, probably from the wall. Face still red, from scrubbing with that scratchy paper towel, embarrassment, or the alcohol, probably from all three. Clothes wet from you spilling two handfuls of water all over yourself. And the heavy burden of the finding of 21 girls coming crashing back down onto your shoulders.
“Yeah… you look pretty sad to me.”
“Thanks,” you bite a little harsher than you intend to. But, thanks to the one who made you build a tougher skin with a level of sass on his own, Sehun takes it all in stride and smiles. He merely grabs you by the shoulders and leads you out of the bar. Jongin nods and waves you off, keeping your coworkers distracted by the state you’re in so you don’t get teased when you come back the next morning.
Between the time Sehun came and got you and when he arrived, he had already transferred your stuff from your coworker’s car to his. You saw this when he helped you climb in and your bags of notebooks were sitting in the back seat. Sehun buckled you in and shut the door for you. The state of mind you were in currently clearly showed you could do at least that, but Sehun chose not to care and did it for you anyways while you watched him walk around the car to the driver’s seat.
“If you fall asleep, just know that I’m not carrying you inside.”
“So my knight in shining armor does have a flaw for tonight’s rescue.” You sarcastically bat your eyes at him and he chuckles, shaking his head and he starts towards your apartment.
“I meant to add that I’d probably be dragging you up those three flights of stairs. By your feet. Head hitting each step.” Before you can ask why in offense, he grins with a shrug. “You went through all that training, not me. All my muscles go to my ears for listening to you go on and on about cases.”
“I’m the reason why you have a job,” You grumble as you stare at the passing buildings. Sehun keeps that stupid smile on his face and laughs.
“Wouldn’t have it any other way.”
The ride to yours is a lot quicker than usual since at this hour it’s already late hardly any traffic. Again, Sehun is humming some songs and tapping his fingers against the steering wheel. At least this time there’s less of him switching it up since he’s forced to sing along for the whole 3 minutes. He’s still humming as he grabs all your stuff from the back seat and follows you up the stairs to your apartment. You silently curse the fact that the elevator is down for maintenance since you wish you didn’t have to climb that much while drunk. You feel even worse when you realize that Sehun took all of your bags and all of those notebooks, binders, and files are no joke. It’s a wonder that kids can carry all that on their backs plus whatever else you put into the bags.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Sehun asks as you pause on the steps, a little behind you and huffing a little.
“For someone who claimed he doesn’t have the strength training to carry me up the stairs, you sure are doing real fine while walking up two and a half flights of stairs and carrying all those books.” Sehun lets out another huff, shorter than usual that let you know he was working up quite a sweat.
“I work out.” He says plainly and grins at you again, which makes you roll your eyes at the statement and continue forth. He’s been over before, plenty of times. He’s come over to bring food on your sleepless nights when you just can’t sleep or spend so long trying to work on another case.
You finally make it to your apartment and eventually into your room. Sehun had set the bags down by your couch where you already had a bunch of files spread out on the coffee table. He tuts and grabs one of the papers and gives it a quick skim.
While you change into comfortable, cleaner clothes he hums and calls out from your small space. “You really need to learn about work-life balance.” He sets the paper back down and goes about preparing you some essentials for when you wake up in the morning definitely hungover.
“You know why I can’t,” you call back as you collapse onto the bed with a groan. Your body all of a sudden feels so heavy and it’s hard to keep your eyes open. You huff into your pillow as you try to block out the haunting words of all the names of the 21 girls that prevent you from sleeping at night. That prevent you from functioning unless you can figure out a way to bring them all home.
From your couch, Sehun makes himself comfy and sighs. He folds his hands over his stomach and quietly says to himself, “Yeah… I know.”

Done redecorating my 🏡 office. I decided not to hang any of the poster frames on the new repainted wall. So i just hung them on the bookshelf instead. For d big posters, i just put them on d floor.
Tumblr media
Hehe there's a lot of Jongin 😛. At least those posters can cover the messy bookshelf 😁.
Tumblr media
Posters & postcards r from Love Shot, DFTF, KAI (1st), Peaches, Empathy, Expectation & Smtown Winter smcu Express albums.

As for these 2 big-ass posters (61 x 91 cm), am not sure whether to use both or just one of them. If i just use one, i'll put d other one in d closet... Jongin in d closet 😬🤭.
Tumblr media
For this scroll poster, i just hung it on the cable concealer rather than directly on d wall.

Mr Jongin what is your position in the company that would require more than one office? Do you need to travel a lot?
Tumblr media
"༊࿐ ͎. 。˚ ° ⊹ ˚. My apologies. It's not that I have more than one office."
"༊࿐ ͎. 。˚ ° ⊹ ˚. I go out to clients and set up shop in their headquarters or operations for a short period of time. Technically like another office.. but not the same."
"༊࿐ ͎. 。˚ ° ⊹ ˚. For example.. I have a temporary office at a pharmaceutical company, an entertainment agency and a rather large bank at the moment."
"༊࿐ ͎. 。˚ ° ⊹ ˚. As do a few other coworkers of mine. Group effort and all that."

Puppy Love <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
characters: Park Chanyeol, Kim Jongin, reader
word count: ~2000
warnings: brief mention of abandoned pets but they are safe and sound in the fic itself no worries, it's all the fluffiest fluff ^~^
a/n: Happy Holidays @galaxybambamm - whichever you celebrate - 'tis me, your secret santa (Admin S, @starchild--27) ^-^ ❄️✨
I hope you are well and that you have a good time for the last couple of days of the year (and hopefully also with the little scenario i came up with :D)
this is my gift for this year's EXO-L Secret Santa event, which was wonderfully hosted by @exols-silver-christmas. Thank you so much for your dedication and hard work, once again I had a really good time participating and I hope we'll see each other again for round 4 next year ♡
Happy holidays to everyone who reads this, I hope December treats you kindly and that the new year starts all smoothly 💕✨
~
If someone asked you what your favorite thing during the Christmas holidays was, you never had to think long and hard about it. Sure, spending time with your loved-ones, not having your boss breathing down your neck everyday and the magic of the snowy scenery were all aspects you greatly appreciated but there was one thing you loved most: having time for volunteering at the local animal shelter.
When you were still in school, helping out with going on walks, grocery runs or simply enjoying playtime with the cute pets were your most-beloved hobbies, but after graduation, life just got too busy, so you could only visit maybe once or twice a month. Like that, the days around Christmas and before New Year's have been reserved for the shelter ever since. 
You could hear the yipping, whining and high-pitched barking of the puppies from outside already as you approached the main entrance of the old building that housed the shelter, and the mere sound made your heart skip two or three beats. You couldn’t wait for the tiny creatures to finally nag on the seam of your pants, eager to play around with you or to receive affectionate caresses.
With your lips stretching into a content smile you gave the entrance door a firm tug so you could slip from the chilling cold of winter into the welcoming warmth of the hallway. Quickly you shed your jacket with its last reminders of the snow outside, hanging it on the rack that was already carrying three more jackets. You wanted it to dry at least a little before you would put it on again. 
You let your eyes wander through the hall. Most of the doors were closed, like the ones which hid nursing and play rooms for puppies, kitties and occasionally bunnies, as well as a small medical station for emergencies and minor injuries that didn’t require a vet right away. Only the doors that led to the office and storage rooms had been left open, probably in a hurry. The last time you’d visited the shelter, everyone was going crazy over a cat that went missing on the day it was supposed to be adopted - turned out someone had forgotten to close the doors for a short moment, one long enough for the cat to follow its curiosity over the threshold of the playroom only to be found asleep on a pile of documents in the rather messy office.
The sound of voices and the shuffle of steps from behind one of the closed doors shifted your attention away from your memories and towards the door which led to the great playroom where both puppies and kitties were running free to explore once they were old enough to do so safely. You didn’t quite understand how it was possible for you to smile even wider but the familiar sounds of a frustrated, very human whine and an infectious laugh somehow managed to have exactly that effect on you.
With fast steps you approached the door, pushing it open carefully so none of the animals could weasel its way out while you were entering. The scene that presented itself in front of you was equally familiar to you as everything else in the shelter: there was Chanyeol, a little ball of white-brown fur curled up in his lap, as he desperately tried and tragically failed to hide dog treats from a certain energetic, black toy poodle. And there was Jongin, who sat next to his friend, laughing at his misery while running gentle fingers through the light fur of two more puppies that had curled up on the younger’s legs. 
“Hey there, guys!” you greeted them happily, “And hello to you little ones too.” You crouched down to pet the small army of kittens that had assembled at your feet. A lot of them were still quite young, too young for being adopted and too young for you to know them from previous visits. 
“Hey there yourself- Okay, okay. Here, Toben. Take the treats, it’s pointless to train you when you refuse to listen” Chanyeol pouted at the poodle and resignedly let the dog have its way, sort of forgetting to finish greeting you but you didn’t mind at all - the two of you had been friends for a couple of years now after all, always trying to visit the shelter together since you’d discovered your mutual love for animals. You were used to Chanyeol’s antics, the way he’s been trying to get into Toben’s good graces since his family had adopted the dog a few years ago from the very shelter both of you were volunteering in your free time. Soon enough, Jongin had joined your trio with endless adoration for puppies and a natural knack for dealing with dogs of any age or breed. Jongin, who interrupted fondling the baby dogs in his lap to wave at you with a happy smile before he turned to Chanyeol with the words “You know, maybe he would listen better if you didn’t always reward his lack of obedience.” 
But his friend didn’t seem to want to see reason, only huffing loudly through his nose, expressing his frustration as he handed Jongin the box with treats, challenging him to try to get the playful poodle to listen. Of course, Toben lost interest in Chanyeol the moment he had handed the treats over, now jumping and running around Jongin, who held up a treat out of the small dog’s reach and said with a stern tone “Sit!”
Toben stopped in his wild racing and sat down immediately, wagging his tail in eager anticipation. 
“I hate this dog,” Chanyeol said dryly with no bite or seriousness in his voice, and tended to the napping fluffball in his lap instead.
Giggling at the scene that had just played out, you made your way to the center of the room where your two friends were sitting and joined them on the ground, only to instantly be jumped by Toben who was hoping to get himself yet another treat if he behaved cutely (or rudely) enough. Instead, you pulled out a squeaky toy you had grabbed from a box in the hallway and carefully tossed it a little further away from your group - you didn’t want to hit one of the babies but also thought Toben could entertain himself for a little while so you had the chance to catch up with Chanyeol and Jongin and the little puppies in their laps, that you hadn’t seen around before.
“And who might these little guys be?” you cooed as you watched one of the puppies on Jongin’s leg wake up from its slumber, yawning and stretching out its little paws in the sweetest of ways. 
“They came here, I think, two or three weeks ago. Three new puppies and their mom. Junmyeon said, someone found them abandoned at a rest area near the highway and brought them over. But they are recovering very well so far” Jongin explained calmly as he re-adjusted the now awake puppy, wanting to prevent it from falling off his leg. 
Maybe you should be more used to such stories - you’ve been working with rescue cases for a long time now after all - but hearing about abandoned pets, especially puppies and especially during the colder seasons, always had your stomach dropping, your heart breaking a little every time. You had never understood how people could just drop off their pets out in the cold if they didn’t want or couldn’t afford taking care of them anymore, why they couldn’t just bring them to a shelter - that’s where the animals would end up anyway. But there was no use in getting all too angry over that, you thought to yourself as you watched the ball of light brown fur slide down Jongin’s leg after all and waddle towards you in healthy curiosity. You were here to help caring for the innocent creatures now, supporting a place that was dedicated to find them a new home - that thought never failed to bring you comfort.
“I know, it’s sad but look at the bright side,” Jongin nudged you in the side, lifting your gaze from the puppy sniffing at your shoelaces, “Chanyeol is totally in love with the little one in his lap already.”
“Yeah, there is no way I am not adopting her myself,” Chanyeol chimed in upon hearing his name. “Time for a dog that actually loves me.” And as if he had understood exactly what Chanyeol had said, Toben suddenly let out an upset bark and started running laps around his owner, who couldn’t help the dumb-founded expression on his face. Jongin and you exchanged meaningful looks at the irony of the situation. Sometimes it was very hard to believe that it was actually impossible for Toben’s behavior to be as calculated as it seemed. 
The poodle’s shrill barking had woken up the two other puppies though, so the three of you decided that it was time to take out the little one’s for an outdoor playing session. Junmyeon, who managed the shelter over the holidays and was probably bored out of his mind sorting documents in the office, had already prepared three tiny harnesses for them, complete with soft cotton applications that would provide some protection from the cold for the little rascals. You picked up the puppy that had played with your shoes before, another little girl as Chanyeol informed you, to get her ready for the outing. 
“This little princess here,” Chanyeol scratched the puppy in his arm behind her ears, “is Zzar. You know, short for Mozart.” She snuggled even closer to him. It was so adorable you almost let out a puppy-like whining sound yourself. She really seemed to be especially fond of Chanyeol, the total opposite of Toben, who never missed an opportunity to tease your friend.
“The one you are handling right now doesn’t have an official name yet, but I've named her Brahms in my head,” Chanyeol explained as he watched you fastening the straps of the little harness, before he handed you one of the leashes. 
“Of course you did,” you laughed. It would have been more surprising if he didn’t continue with naming pets after composers.
“The third one is Debussy” Chanyeol finished off his naming process, sending a cheeky grin towards Jongin.
“Don’t worry, I won’t ever call you that,” Jongin only half-whispered into his puppy’s ears, obviously with the intention of teasing Chanyeol who threw a fake punch in return - you couldn’t help chuckling at the typical habits and antics they displayed.
Something mischievous was flashing in Jongin’s eyes but before the situation could escalate into friendly but nonetheless petty bickering you loudly cleared your throat and gestured towards the scurrying puppies with a nod of your head.
“I think these babies can’t wait for their outdoor adventure time anymore,” you decided with feigned seriousness as all three puppies were leashed and more than ready to go, so the three of you grabbed your jackets and stepped into the cold air.
Everything felt so comfortably familiar as the three of you ventured outside, along the path that led to a small playground for dogs not far from the shelter. So it didn’t surprise you when Jongin dropped the box with the dog treats, the snacks scattering all over the ground. Or how Chanyeol told you with big eyes that he couldn’t tell you now what Christmas gifts he bought for his dogs because “it’s supposed to be a surprise - I can’t tell you right in front of them”. Or the way all three of you broke into a laughing fit when one of the puppies got a little too over-excited in its playfulness and stumbled over its tiny legs. 
That was how you knew, no matter how long you hadn’t seen each other, there were always things that would never ever change. ♡

ChoiBaek Nightmares Headcanons
Baek Yoon-Ho might not get nightmares, though he might have trouble falling asleep. I do think the fear of losing his humanity and the fear of losing someone he cares about can make him overthink about the "what if" scenarios when something triggers that fear of his, but I don't think it would manifest into nightmares
Choi Jongin canonically gets nightmares, though I'm not sure about the frequency. I think he might have them on days where he overworks himself, like that time in the anime when he fell asleep in his office
I like to think that sometimes when they sleep together and Jongin has a nightmare, he wakes Yoonho up. Except Yoonho doesn't confront him about it right away
I don't think Jongin likes being seen when he's in a vulnerable state by anyone, including Yoonho. I think that Jongin probably shuts himself away from others when he feels that way, and Yoonho confronting him in that state would only make things worse for them
Since Jongin usually has nightmares about the Jeju raid, I think after he and Yoonho have been in a relationship for a while, his nightmares start to become more about losing Yoonho during the raid. Jongin doesn't seem like the type to yell out of shock, so he would mostly just wake up with a start
After waking up, I imagine the first thing Jongin does is turn to Yoonho and immediately check his vitals, like Yoonho's breathing and heartbeat. Just to assure himself that Yoonho is alive and that he's not dead like he was in his nightmares
Jongin probably listens to Yoonho's heartbeat for a while before falling back asleep. And that's when Yoonho finally moves to wrap his arms around Jongin and holding him close. Maybe gently kissing the top of his head before going back to sleep
They're very soft for each other. Just when the other isn't looking
