whenever chan had a rough day, he would crave sleep more desperately than on his worst insomniac nights. today was one of those days. he couldn’t say that it was a bad day, but they were nearing the end of the tour, so his emotions and physical exhaustion were running high. he rushed through his nighttime routine, aching to fall asleep and see your face. he knew that, even if it were brief, being with you would keep him from completely falling apart.

“it’s about time you showed up!” you teased, grinning at chan when he walked into the living room you two designed.

“i’m really sorry, y/n,” chan sighed, falling onto the sofa, “these last few shows have messed with my sleep schedule more than i expected. i feel so bad that i haven’t been around as much.”

your heart broke when you saw his frown, “chan, i’m not mad. please don’t feel bad. i just miss hanging out with you, and this is the only place i can do it. i’m grateful for any time we get together during your busy schedule!”

“y/n…” chan’s frown turned into an adorable pout, “that makes me feel even more guilty. you can’t be so nice and understanding!”

you laughed when he put his head in his hands. you wrapped him into a hug, appreciating the giggles that escaped his lips at the close contact. 

“i miss you more,” chan mumbled against your clothing.

you shook your head, which, surprisingly, chan noticed, “don’t disagree with me! it’s true!”

chan smiled widely when he saw you laughing. he paused to enjoy the sound of your laughter. then, once your laughs quieted, he held both of your hands in his.

“i promise that i’ll rest a ton once i’m back from tour, okay? i’ll be on break for a while, so i’ll make sure i am at your beck and call every time you sleep. i’ll do everything i can to make it up to you, to make up for the lost time. i swear.”

the combination of his grasp and sincere gaze was almost overwhelming. chan always made promises with his full heart, and you knew that to be especially true right now. 

“i believe you,” you smiled, which prompted chan’s shoulders to relax, “thank you, chan. you don’t have to make it up to me. but you do need to get some more rest. i don’t want to have to scold you to take care of yourself the first time we meet!”

“you’re going to anyway, no matter what i do,” chan teased, laughing hysterically at your glare.  

you moved the conversation into lighter topics, soaking up his presence. though the visit was once again fleeting, you two enjoyed your time together. it was always healing to be with chan. whether you spent your dreams seeing the world or relaxing in a familiar space, you woke up feeling rested, all thanks to spending the night with your other half.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

after chan returned from tour, both of you happily settled into your normal routine. he kept his promise of resting more, much to your delight. rather than having to rush conversations, you could enjoy each other’s company throughout the night, only parting when your alarm went off in the morning. it was easy, natural. of course, there were days when the sunlight hit your eyes and left you feeling empty because that action alone separated you from your person. most days though, you beamed with gratitude because chan was recovering from his strenuous tour and returning to the happy-go-lucky man you knew him to be. 

last night’s dream was particularly wonderful. you and chan strolled around your favorite neighborhood while he told you all his favorite stories from tour. your heart always soared when you listened to the way he talked about seeing stays and joked about the antics he and the boys got up to while traveling. truly, the best part of it all was seeing him happy. the sparkle in his eyes and the upbeat tone of his voice were like a rush of sugar, the sweetest thing in the world. you confessed this to chan when a comfortable silence fell over you, and the last thing you heard before waking up was the sound of him giggling, highlighted by chan’s blushing skin.

perhaps it was chan’s sweetness that had you craving a treat as soon as you opened your eyes. stretching and soaking in the peacefulness of the late morning, you decided to go to your favorite bakery. it was the weekend, after all, and you wanted to do everything you could to maintain the happy mood chan put you in. after getting ready, you made your way to the bakery. the familiar route allowed your mind to wander, unsurprisingly to thoughts of your sweet soulmate.

the first dream you shared with chan was when you were six years old. you swung back and forth on the swingset in a quiet playground, covered nicely by the shade of a large tree. from beside you, a voice you had never heard before asked can i swing here too? you looked over, curious and unalarmed. when you saw the boy with curly brown hair smile shyly at you, you felt the tiniest of butterflies flutter in your stomach. you nodded, introducing yourself when he sat down on the swing next to you, i’m y/n. what’s your name? he grew more confident after hearing your voice, grinning charmingly as he said, i’m chan. it’s nice to meet you, y/n. you two watched the clouds float by, calling out the shapes you saw. in your childhood innocence and bravery, you suddenly asked, are you my soulmate? even as an adult, you could never forget the way chan’s ears turned bright red. how heartwarming it was for him to blush at the word “soulmate!” you didn’t need to hear him say yes, because the pink on his cheeks and the hopefulness in his eyes told you everything you needed to know. you wondered, heart pounding in your chest, if he’d look at you like that the first time he saw you in the real world.

the sound of the bakery door’s bell ringing snapped you out of your reverie. you inhaled the decadent smells of the shop, fresh baked warmth fit for a saturday. your lovestruck thoughts of chan could wait. you had business to attend to. 

you greeted the employees, browsing the items on display. you took your time, selected your treats, and paid at the register. the place wasn’t too full, so you figured you could take a seat at a table near the window to appreciate the cozy ambience for a bit. you scanned for the closest empty table, nearly falling over when you locked eyes with someone.

well, not just someone. chan.

your mouth opened, but you couldn’t produce anything more than a few stammering syllables. chan’s eyes were wide with shock, quickly twinkling with happiness. soon, he started laughing. the sound bubbled out of him as though he were a child set free in a candy store, delighted beyond belief. you started laughing too. before people started to stare, chan waved you over to his table, pulling out a seat just for you.

“fancy seeing you here,” chan giggled through the cheesy line.

you rolled your eyes, smile never leaving your face, “don’t get me wrong. it is absolutely the best surprise in the world to see you here right now. but how does drinking a large coffee count as resting?”

chan lifted the coffee cup between you two, “oh this? i only got this because i couldn’t find a nap buddy anywhere. it looks like my luck might have changed though.”

he winked, making you blush and giggle like a teenager. not wanting to let him have all the fun, you grinned and replied, “i guess my first official duty as your soulmate is getting you to take a nap, isn’t it?”

now it was chan’s turn to blush. your body flooded with fondness, seeing the way his ears turned bright red at the word soulmate as it had when he first heard you say it. chan accepted your order when they called out your name, excitedly commenting on how good your taste was. the pep in his step was visible, though anyone who saw you would say that your pace matched his exactly. you two practically skipped the whole way back to your place, conversation flowing as though seeing each other was your plan all along. 

“can we take a second to talk about how crazy this is? that we finally met? after all these years, we’ve been only a handful of miles away from each other, and we met today?”

chan’s expression was full of glee and disbelief, and you agreed with his sentiment fully, “they really aren’t lying when they say you won’t meet until the time is right,” you paused, reminding yourself that this moment was real, “i do think it’s ridiculous we’ve practically been neighbors this whole time though. no wonder it always felt strange when you were on tour.”

chan pouted, “don’t remind me…that’ll make me feel even worse about leaving…” then, a smile replaced his pout, “at least now we know that every time i come back from traveling, i’ll be coming home to you!”

you returned his smile, only looking away to unlock your door. you slipped off your shoes and made room for chan to come inside. while you’ve dreamt of chan your whole life, nothing was more surreal than seeing him in your home. he looked so much like he belonged there, as though he had been inhabiting the space for as long as you. yet you stood there, staring, unable to believe that your dream had finally come true.

“what are you staring at, mon rêve?” chan asked, smiling sweetly.

“it’s just…” you walked across the room, meeting him halfway, “i can’t believe you’re here.”

chan hummed in agreement. without another word, he intertwined your hands, looking at you intently. you led him to your favorite nap spot, adjusting it so everything was just right. instinctively, your bodies molded together, finding comfort in the shared embrace. mere seconds after thank you left chan’s lips, you both slipped into sleep, breaths falling into your natural harmony.

you weren’t sure how much time had passed when you opened your eyes. it was strange, almost unnerving, to wake up from a dream that did not include chan. before the panic or sadness could settle in, you looked over to the man in your arms. you stared in awe at his lips curling up ever so slightly, his hair in disarray, and his chest rising to the beat of the precious heart you belonged to. every little detail of chan was at your fingertips, and it was more beautiful than any dream you had ever had.

Autumn's sighs- little soft thoughts about our favourite boys

(n.) a relationship by fate or destiny; the binding force between two people

It was a very faint memory. So faint that one might think of it as a dream. But Seungmin knew it was a memory indeed. A grand palace, a huge pond in seclusion of the tall trees, and a girl- no a lady. A lady so beautiful Seungmin was tempted to believe she was a dream.

Seungmin had one word to describe his life, lifeless. Every day he woke up tired, had whatever was in the fridge and went to work. By the time he came home, he looked like a zombie. He was just trying to survive. The only thing he looked forward to was sleeping. He knew he would see her once he fell asleep. Eyes looking at him with pure love and a smile so dazzling it blinded him. But he could never recall the face of this lady after he woke up no matter how hard he thought about it. Seungmin could only wish to meet her in this life.

It was very odd how he just knew it was a memory of a previous life. Well, he was very confused when the dreams started three months ago, but something about it just felt right. For once he felt like he was in the right place, right where he belonged. He never thought of believing things about fate, soulmates and whatnot. But if his soulmate did exist, he knew it was the lady of his dreams.

It was mostly different dreams. Sometimes the lady was not there at all. But it was always the same setting. It was some time in ancient Korea. He often found himself by the pond, writing something that he couldn’t make out. Sometimes he was in a luxurious room, accompanied by a few maids, giggling as they watched him blush at something they said. Even though the visions were not clear, he felt every single emotion. A sense of admiration towards someone possibly his father whom Seungmin had seen in his dreams once or twice. The joy of friendship when he laughed along with the maids and pages. And immeasurable love when looking at that lady who smiled so sweetly at him. Seungmin wondered how anyone could hold such sweetness in their eyes. He would forever be grateful to ever have been on the receiving end. He always woke up feeling nostalgic and mournful as if he had lost everything he held dear.

❀ . * . *

“How has my Minnie been today?” a very loud voice of the Han Jisung came in ruining Seungmin’s attempt at focusing on his novel. He sighed, “If my father were to hear you talk in that manner, you’d sure be thrown out of here”. It was very daring of Han Jisung the page to talk to Seungmin so informally. His father had brought in Han when he was about fifteen. A good company for home-schooled Seungmin was what he said. And some company he was. After the initial shyness, Han got very comfortable with Seungmin. He learned all he had to do from the older pages. And when he had nothing but time on his hands, he accompanied Seungmin. And he would swear that not a minute went by when Han was not talking his ears off. But Han was the only one he knew of his age and so he found a friend in him. At least that was what Seungmin would say. But it was Han’s qualities that impressed him. Hard-working, kind, very friendly and a very good listener which was surprising to Seungmin since he only saw him talk. These qualities of his were revealed as the years went by and before he knew Han had built a comfortable place for himself in Seungmin’s heart. You would never catch him saying this but everyone in the palace knew how fond Seungmin was of him.

Ignoring Seungmin’s chastising, Han sprawled across from him with a mischievous look on his face, “So, you have been certainly busy milord”. Seungmin did not have to look up from his book to know that he was being mocked, “You know the last thing I am is busy these days my dear Hannie”.

“I beg to differ for I know that a certain lady friend has been keeping you busy”, he grinned as if he had finally managed to outwit Seungmin. Of course, it was about the ‘lady friend’, Seungmin was waiting for him to bring her up. He knew Han has been spying on him for a few days now. The ‘lady friend’ in question was the esteemed daughter of a noble from the inner circle of the King. Seungmin’s father being part of the council had introduced them to each other with eventual marriage in mind. It was obvious that the attraction was mutual so they kept meeting each other by this beautiful pond she knew of. Seungmin was sure that both of their fathers had gotten wind of this. It was only a matter of time before he had to ask for her hand in marriage.

❀ . * . *

“Guess who got tickets to Garage Junk’s concert?” a sing-song whisper brought back Seungmin from his daydreams. Jeongin, his colleague was leaning all the way over to his desk with a childlike smile on his face. How he managed to be so cheerful in the zombie corporation would forever be a mystery. “Oh I don’t know Yang let me guess, you?” Seungmin humoured. “Oh my god how’d you know are you a mind-reader?” a look from Seungmin shut him up. “You’re no fun. Anyways, so I’ve got two passes from this bet that I won and the passes allow two people each so I wanted to invite you-” “No”

Jeongin pouted, “What, why? I promise you’ll have fun”

“It’s not my thing Jeongin ask someone else”

“Why are you being so mean to the hubae, I’ll snitch on you about that coffee spill to Lee Know hyung if you don’t come with me”

“What coffee spill?” and there’s the devil himself, Lee Know, the team leader who has been making Seungmin’s life a living hell since he transferred here four months ago. He seemed to have a personal vendetta against him for some reason because all Seungmin has been doing for the past few weeks was staying overtime. And it was all Lee Know’s fault. But no one would believe it because apparently “Lee know is an angel in disguise he could never do that”, angel his ass. All those fuck ups and Seungmin had to be the one to clean up all the mess. Lee Know lost his oh-so-important work diary, “Seungmin can you please help me find it?”, his assistant fucked up some calls with clients, “Seungmin help”, Yang Jeongin the newbie needs to be shown around, “Seungmin show him the ropes around here”.

“Maybe he just trusts you more than anyone else”, Jeongin suggested one day after Seungmin’s weekly rambling sessions about Lee Know being an ass. Seungmin was quick to shut down that idea. He did ask Jeongin why he was so fond of him though, “He just reminds me of my hyung back home. And he is so inclusive, he even told me I can call him hyung, youngest privileges I guess”.

“It’s nothing sir, I was just telling Jeongin about how I really want to go to this concert with him”

“Ah, the one you were talking about Jeongin? And I think I’ve been telling you this since I came here Seungmin be casual with me, please. It already feels like a funeral in here the least we could do is be comfortable with each other”, Lee Know said while giving Seungmin’s back a pat.

It seemed like Seungmin had to go to this concert, now that he had lied about it. Maybe for once, he would have a good time.

❀ . * . *

“What are you writing about?” Seungmin looked up from the littering pages to find the owner of the honey voice. “About two lovers finding each other in every universe”, he said looking at her with awe as if he were seeing her for the first time.

“Why do you always look at me like that?”, she let out a shy giggle.

“Because you are art, and art needs to be awed at”.

It was always like this between them. Seungmin, the charmer who never lets an opportunity go to waste. Not that the lady needed to be charmed anymore but he couldn’t help it. She always looked so sweet when he made her blush.

It was after a lot of asking for permission and making arrangements was she allowed to visit him at his palace. They weren’t to be left alone before the marriage, of course, so Han Jisung was diligently sitting in a corner with a Cheshire grin. It was laughable how the elders were pretending to not know that the two lovers were sneaking out to be alone with each other. If the marriage was not arranged by them, then by now chaos would have ensued because of ‘illicit meetings’. Even though this meeting arrangement was almost a formal declaration of engagement, Seungmin did not bother to arrange his space. He was at a very crucial point in his novel, the lovers were on the brink of coming together in this universe which would conclude the end of the novel, and cleaning all the loose pages now meant losing track of everything, so he let it be. He was sure she would not mind a little bit of clutter. After all, she knew how much passion he was putting into this story.

❀ . * . *

The concert hall was five stops away from Seungmin’s place which made him debate about going even when he was putting his shoes on. At this point, the only thing that made him go was that he did not want to deal with an uncooperative Jeongin on Monday. Not to his surprise, Lee Know was waiting by the entrance with Jeongin and some other guy. Obviously, Jeongin had given the other pass to the team leader. He might as well get himself adopted by Lee Know. But Seungmin understood that Jeongin was very pure-hearted. He had a way of bringing people closer. He was young with a different and fresh outlook on society and never let anyone change his optimistic way of perceiving things. Even if it was annoying to Seungmin, he hoped that Jeongin would remain like this forever.

“Hyung you’re finally here, we have been waiting for you for so long”, Jeongin whined as he saw Seungmin approaching.

“What are you talking about I’m not late you guys are just early. Concert starts at 6 and it’s just 5:20 now”, Seungmin said as he checked his phone to look at the time.

“Okay okay, Seungmin meet Felix, my brother. Felix this is Seungmin from work”, Lee Know introduced the other guy who has been silently snickering at their exchange. Seungmin gave him a nod to which Felix smiled so brightly that Seungmin was blinded.

The concert hall was jam-packed and Seungmin felt suffocated. Was it really going to be worth it? And they were seated so far away that they could barely see the stage. He thought that the crowd was loud enough but he was clearly wrong. Nothing could have prepared him for the outburst of energy in the hall when the band members came on stage. They must be some good musicians for this hype, Seungmin thought. He looked to his side to see Jeongin looking at the stage with fascination. He wasn’t sure what Jeongin was staring at because they couldn’t even make out the faces of the performers properly from this far. Some cheap passes they were.

Not even halfway through the concert, Seungmin understood why there was so much hype. Garage Junk was phenomenal. Their music resonated with his soul. All of them were amazing performers. But by the end of the concert, everyone there knew that it was the guitarist’s day. He took it away with his solo and his energy. And Seungmin could say that after a very long time, he had fun. He was still having an adrenaline rush when Jeongin said that there would be a high-five event after. Seungmin surprised himself by accepting to stay. The ones staying for the event were made to walk in a line and pass by the band members who were standing behind a barricade with outstretched hands and big smiles. They too were still running on adrenaline, excited to interact with the fans. Seungmin thought it was silly, he was not even a fan yet. He only listened to their music for the first time today. But he had no way out anymore so he went along with Jeongin and Felix. Lee Know had left first thing saying he had no interest in this. He would be waiting for his brother outside the hall.

The event itself was not very time taking for an individual. They just ran along and high-fived all the members and they were done. So it did not take long before it was Seungmin’s turn. Well if anything he would at least be able to see the faces of the members clearly. He guessed it went in this order- vocalist, guitarist, bassist, pianist and then he stopped. Seungmin couldn’t move as he stared at the pianist. His hand was still touching hers. Her face mirrored Seungmin’s in surprise. And the world seemed to stop as they stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity. And then she said something, so softly that Seungmin wasn’t sure if he heard her right. “I found you”.

❀ . * . *

No one had predicted an attack at such a time when the state was finally at peace. But when did anyone ever expect misfortune. It was not people from outside the borders, but conspirators from within the state. They targeted the houses of the council members. It might be with inside help that they could enter past the guards. They did not have to get far inside to set everything on fire. And they did not stop with the houses of the council members, they set fire to the houses of the people who supported the king which was majority. Within minutes almost the whole capital was burning down.

Seungmin’s father was unfortunately a member of the council. Times like these were when he wished he was not involved in anything, times when his family was put in danger. Seungmin and his lover were deep in the inner chambers. Han had gone to fetch two glasses of water for them and he was yet to come back when the fire started. Seungmin was thankful that at least he was out of there, possibly out of danger. He was stupid enough to come to look for them but the guards would stop him he knew.

It was a terrible sight, as far as one could see everything was on fire. Seungmin was trying to navigate them out through the fire and fumes. But no matter which direction they went every way was blocked. Left. Right. Through the kitchen. Across the garden. All along grasping her hand tightly. Seungmin was frantically looking for a way, he would save her, he had to. He couldn’t think clearly, his lungs were burning from smoke. He looked back when he felt her stop. “What is it? Why did you stop?”, he looked at her concerningly. She had a resigned look on her face, “It’s pointless, my love”.

“What? What are you talking-” “You know I’m right Seungmin. We’ve been going around in circles. There’s no way out left”.

Seungmin knew, the thought had come to the back of his head when they had tried going around the baths for the second time. But he was so desperate that he couldn’t accept it. The only thing going through his mind was getting her to safety.

“Give up my love”, she stepped closer and cradled his face in her hands.

“N-no it cannot be. There has to be a way-”, she kissed him. Soft lips enveloped his in an embrace while the fire drew closer. Seungmin’s delirious brain calmed down at her touch. At least they were together, he thought. “At least we die together”, she gave a teary smile. He did not want to know if the tears were from emotions or from the smoke. Seungmin brought her in his arms in a tight hold for the last time in this life, “I will find you, my love, I will always come for you”. The heat was increasing into searing pain. But she was smiling nonetheless, “I will wait for you”.

❀ . * . *

“I found you”

The world started moving again. Securities came barging to rush Seungmin along. But he wasn’t looking anywhere, he was entranced by her. He did not notice any of the pushing or the firm instructions to move along. He only snapped out of it when she jumped over the barricade to stop him from being dragged away. “No, no stop please I know him, let him go”, Seungmin heard the panic in her voice. He caught a glance of Felix and Jeongin at the side, confusion latched on their faces.

It was all so hazy. Even though Seungmin saw everything that was happening around him, he could not seem to comprehend anything. It was almost like an out-of-body experience. He was just watching everything happen to his physical form. He could only register that he was being dragged away somewhere by the pianist, her hand strongly grasping his as if he would fade away if she didn’t. Away from all the shocked and confused stares she brought him to the changing room, still holding his hand tightly. They stood there looking at each other longingly. No words were exchanged for a minute, just relishing in each other’s presence.

“I’ve been waiting for you, I knew you would come for me”, she spoke up first.

Seungmin stepped closer raising a hand to stroke her face, hesitatingly. He was not sure if she was real, “You are the lady from my dreams” he let out a laugh in disbelief.

He had been looking for her discreetly, everywhere he went. From the moment he stepped out of his house, on the train, scanning everyone’s face on the sidewalk, the convenience store he went to, everywhere, always, he had been keeping a lookout for her. But for some reason, he was not looking for her at this concert, so ironic. Seungmin felt his phone vibrate, Jeongin was probably bombing it with messages. He had half a heart to let him know that he was fine. But his eyes were fixed on her, unable to do anything else.

“I remembered nothing but those words, that you will find me, I-” a sob escaped her, “I’m so happy that you found me. I don’t even remember your name. I’m sorry I- do you remember anything?”

“Yeah, little things. I’m Seungmin, but you used to call me my love”.

“Seungmin”, she tried out saying it, it felt familiar. “My love”, she said looking directly into his eyes with adoration. A rush of emotions hit them both at that, bringing out fresh tears. But both of them were smiling now. It had been exhausting, living without each other. Now they were finally home.

“You found me, my love”, she wrapped her arms around him.

Seungmin brought her head to his chest, smiling in her hair,

“I found you”.

Colors of You

Changbin x reader

Genre: fluff, strangers to lovers, soulmate au maybe..?

Synopsis: Changbin never knew his favorite color, he could never quite decide. But then he saw you, and your color was imprinted on his heart—forever.

Word Count: 1.3k

Warnings: mentions of smut, kissing, drinking, drunk people, bar setting, depression.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

“What’s your favorite color?” 

The question seemed so simple, so basic and unimportant; a standard conversation starter.

It was asked whenever people met, when friends weren’t sure what to talk about, when two people were on a date, when family dinner got a little too complicated.

“What’s your favorite color?” The words brought a sense of comfort, of peace. The words, much like a mother’s acceptance or a father’s praise, had been spoken to most people since they were young.

But then again, most people weren’t fond of the question. It was too plain, too easy. There was no complexity about it, not unless you thought long and hard.

But to him, the question held a deep importance. He could never place a color he preferred over another, but that didn’t stop him from trying.

Some days, he would decide it was blue; endless blue with cold, sharp edges and the strength of oceans.

Other days, he would decide it was red; dangerous red with deep, entrancing bends and the heat of fires.

Sometimes he would decide his favorite color was purple; vibrant purple with smooth, round creases and the beauty of sunrises.

Some days, he would even decide his chosen color was green; churning green with broad, safe arms.

Blue that fish lurked in, swimming through ocean coves and streams. Red that threatened forests with big, magnificent flames; flames that made some people go mad. Purple that coated the sky, might it be when the sun set or rose. Green that offered animals home and safety in it’s rolling hills and hidden caves.

But more then not, Changbin couldn’t choose.

His opinions on colors and their various shades seemed ever changing; never ending, even.

He would often walk through the streets of his town, or lift weights in the gym, or even go out to dinner, all to find his favorite color.

Changbin would look far and wide, searching for a shade of something that made his eyes widen and his heart happy.

But he couldn’t, and when he thought he did, the feeling wouldn’t be there the second time he gazed upon his chosen color.

The mission was pointless, it was. However, Changbin needed something to ground himself during busy days, and again during slow days that seemed to drag on forever.

He didn’t like the question—quite the contrary actually—he loathed it. He didn’t hate it because of the question itself, but rather the fact that he couldn’t offer an answer to the query.

It set his veins ablaze—red—and his heart into an endless winter—blue.

His emotions often went hand in hand with color. Just as he assumed everyone’s did, but he would never ask anyone that.

He felt calm and serene, he felt like purple at times like this.

He felt energetic and happy, he felt yellow at times like this.

He felt sick and tired, he felt gray at times like this.

He felt sad and on the verge of tears, he felt blue at times like this.

He felt hot with rage, he felt red at times like this.

To him, colors brought pain and happiness, you couldn’t have one without the other.

But still, he might just give it all up to find his favorite color. The very best color of them all.

23 years. 23 years he’d waited to find a favorite color. His favorite color.

But he couldn’t.

It all changed for him one day, in the blink of an eye.

He was feeling blue and red, a cold, fiery mix all at once. He also felt green; sick and uneasy.

Maybe it was work, or perhaps it was the fact that he was on bad terms with his girlfriend, ex girlfriend now.

She reminded him of red and green; mad, disgusted, and spiteful. Unbearable, that matched her too.

He was walking the streets, head hung low as he wandered aimlessly, his muscles tense and his hand tightly clutched around his phone.

Red, blue, red, blue, red, blue.

Mad, sad, mad, sad, mad, sad.

In a fit of rage, he decide to go to a bar, get drunk, and sleep with whoever he could find. No, his girlfriend—ex girlfriend—wouldn’t know, but he would feel better. Hopefully.

And so he did, he walked to a bar with his eyes narrow and his jaw clenched.

And so he did, he ordered drinks and he got drunk.

And so he did, well, he tried.

He went through the checklist in his head; go to a bar, get drunk, sleep with a girl.

Check, check… almost check.

He convinced himself it was the spinning of his head, or the ache in his chest, but when he saw you, his heart nearly exploded.

So suddenly, almost like he had never looked at all, he had found his favorite color.

Oh yes, you were his favorite color. He knew it form the first moment he set his eyes on you.

It wasn’t your skin, it wasn’t you clothes, nor your makeup, it was you. Just you.

Why was he being like this? People didn’t really have a color, they just didn’t. But you did, and he loved it.

The feeling was striking, so sudden and intense that he almost fell backwards.

You.

You, you, you, you, you.

You were his favorite color.

Suddenly, he was staring at the world in every shade of you.

He was walking through a park, hand in hand with you. He was at work, waiting until he could see you again. He was hugging you against his chest, laughing tears because you were being adorably dramatic.

He was thinking of you. He was touching you, breathing you, living you.

He was seeing you and he was addicted.

Suddenly the question, ‘what’s your favorite color?’, had so much more meaning.

It meant you. Beautiful, amazing you.

And suddenly, he didn’t hate the question anymore. No, no, he loved it.

He wanted that to be the first thing people asked him every day; ‘what’s your favorite color?’.

Maybe if they did, he could try to explain the exhilarating, endless color of you.

It was soft and welcoming, but also brash and intimidating. It was hopelessly romantic, but also aimlessly insecure. It was happy and full of laughter, but it was also miserable and dripping with tears.

It was you.

That night, as Changbin approached you. And as he kissed your neck, as he walked you to his apartment, as he carried you to his bed, as he lived in your color, he decided that he would take things slow.

He kissed you again, taking the time to kiss your lips for the first time. Oh, he was so nervous, but it was so good.

He kissed you again, and again, and again. But now, he was completely sober, and so were you.

He couldn’t go further with you, not yet. Not until he was sure this feeling in his chest, this glow of you, he couldn’t do anything until he knew it was real.

You didn’t argue, but you did cuddle against him. You did tease him, you did kiss him. But you didn’t argue.

You fell asleep in his arms; safe and content.

Changbin fell asleep wrapped around you; hopeful and unsure. Changbin fell asleep with your color wrapped around him. I’m him, with him, beside him, against him.

He prayed and begged for this feeling to be there when he woke up, for this color to be real and not just an imaginary piece of his desperate mind.

And when Changbin awoke the next day, when he gazed down at you—asleep in his arms—his heart soared.

You were still the color you had been the night before, glowing and vibrant.

When you awoke, when you realized Changbin was looking down at you so fondly, so tenderly, you almost melted.

“What’s your favorite color?”, you had asked him, something in your chest, in your mind, in your very soul, was telling you to ask that question. That silly, awkward question.

He didn’t even think for a moment. Before he could even try to comprehend how to respond, his mouth was moving and a voice was leaving his lips.

“You’re my favorite color.”

stray kids soulmate aus | k. seungmin <3

a/n: these days i am QUITE the seungmin simp & it shows :,-) i had a lot of fun writing a very classic kpop fic meet-cute with this one ! if you need me, i'll be watching seungmin compilations <333 pics not mine~

content: fluff, soulmate au | wc: 1.9k | warnings: none really! | pairing: soulmate!seungmin x gn!reader | requests: open

♡ chan | minho | changbin | hyunjin | jisung | felix | seungmin | jeongin ♡

on your 18th birthday, you receive a stack of sticky notes on which you can write to your soulmate. there is one note for every day leading up to when you meet.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

you settled into your desk chair, eager to see what anecdote seungmin has chosen for you today. it was always a thrill to get a peek into his daily life, and it was especially entertaining when he removed context from the situation to make you laugh. over the years, he developed a knack for telling stories just the way you liked them. 

we went shopping today, in that area that always smells like ice cream cone batter. i bought a cool phone case. you better compliment me on it when we meet. i know it’s only ten days away, but i encourage you to put a reminder on your calendar, so you don’t forget to appreciate my taste in accessories. 

-yours, seungmin 

you scoffed. he was always extra sassy when he was excited about something. you tapped your pen against your desk, devising the perfect reply to seungmin’s daily update.

i promise i’ll tell you the phone case is cool, if and only if it actually is. we must be on the same wavelength because i went shopping today too (it didn’t smell like ice cream cone batter where i was though). i picked out new clothes for the day we meet, so you better compliment me on it as soon as you see me. should we make a joint calendar event since you’re quite forgetful?

-yours, y/n

not even 30 seconds passed when you saw seungmin’s handwriting appear near the bottom of the sticky note. you smiled, feeling his playful energy infect you.

like a wise person said, i’ll tell you the outfit is cool, if and only if it actually is. i’d love to make a joint calendar event, but we can’t share contact information yet, remember? i’ll have to trust you won’t forget the phone case…i guess that’s more important than remembering a basic rule about soulmates, so i’ll have faith in you :-) 

-yours, seungmin

with another roll of your eyes, you wrote your last message to seungmin for the night.

you test my patience, kim seungmin. get some rest now. i know you’re working hard on your comeback, so i’ll be rooting for you! 

-yours, y/n

you smiled at the tiny heart seungmin drew in the bottom corner of the page before you peeled the sticky note off the stack. electricity ran through you every time you noticed how much it shrank. soon, very soon, you would be teased by seungmin in person. you hoped that you’d deliver the perfect eye roll in response to his snarky comments, as a way to show him you truly loved him.

staring at the note, seungmin laughed at his desk, right when felix walked by.

“what’d y/n say?”

“none of your business.”

despite the nature of the retort, seungmin’s tone was lighthearted. felix laughed and left seungmin alone to place the completed sticky note in his not-so-secret box, where he kept every word you’ve ever exchanged safe from the rest of the world.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

hi soulmate~ let’s see if our tastes match. tell me your ideal meet-cute.

-yours, seungmin

you felt a blush on your skin at seungmin’s cute tone. you imagined he was feeling particularly sweet as your meeting was only three days away. you took your time mentally ranking the best meet-cutes you’d witnessed in books, movies, tv, and real life.

hi seungmin~ there are a lot of good ones, but i have to stick with the classic: locking eyes across a crowded room. what’s yours?

-yours, y/n

you stared at the note, eager to see whether seungmin had a romantic side after all. you laughed in disbelief when you read his answer.

wow, no “hi soulmate~”? rude :-( my favorite trope is spilling coffee on someone. i’d enjoy that as long as i’m not the one getting spilled on. let’s hope your outfit isn’t too cool!

-yours, seungmin

you imagined seungmin was laughing at his own joke, which balanced out his vague threat to spill coffee on you.

you’re such a menace :-( i’m about to revoke “soulmate” from your nicknames, as a matter of principle. 

-yours, y/n

seungmin, despite himself, blushed at the thought of you having different nicknames picked out for him. his heart fluttered, feeling extra sweet because of you.

i’m YOUR menace. see you soon! i’ll be the handsome man holding two coffees <3

-yours, seungmin 

you sighed, knowing there was a real chance he’d carry two coffees around that whole day. if there was one thing about seungmin, he’d commit to the bit. 

i’ll run away from you, and i hope you spill one of the coffees on yourself while you chase me. at least we’ll be matching <3

-yours, y/n

from miles away, you and seungmin laughed at the same time. similarly, you both played out different meet-cute scenarios for the rest of the night. seungmin would never admit this to you, but he’d love to see the excited look on your face if your chosen meet-cute was what fate had in store.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

though you returned home later than usual, you were still surprised to see the sticky note halfway filled up by the time you sat at your desk. 

my schedules start before sunrise tomorrow, so i have to go to bed early, like a grandpa. chan says this is a good time to go to bed…what else would we expect though? anyways, i’m sorry i won’t get to write back tonight. tell me about your day! i’ll read it as soon as i wake up. i promise. :-)

sleep well, and i’ll see you tomorrow~

-yours, seungmin

your heart sank a little at the fact you wouldn’t be able to interact directly with seungmin the night before the long-awaited day. however, the butterflies in your stomach reminded you that there was plenty to be excited about.

hi soulmate~ i’m jealous you’re sleeping so early. i was out late because i had to get everything ready before attending the live show recording tomorrow (i still can’t believe i won that ticket lottery!). i’m worried i won’t be able to sleep well from the excitement. 

don’t forget about my outfit! just look for the best-dressed person and you’ll find me :-)

i’ll be sending you the strength to get through your schedules! i can’t wait to see you tomorrow~

-yours, y/n

you smiled to yourself, feeling in your heart that seungmin would start his day off happy, as you finally gave him the greeting he’d been waiting for.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ 

from the second he read your note, seungmin couldn’t wipe the smile from his face. everyone noticed the way he beamed, so it didn’t take long for them to put together that he’d be meeting you today. his members were painfully obvious about trying to catch a glimpse of you wherever they went. seungmin was in such a good mood that he didn’t even tease them that much. 

realizing that the live show recording was almost definitely where you’d meet, seungmin noticed that his palms were sweatier than normal. he shook them out, taking deep breaths to calm his heart rate. this may not have been the first stage for their new song, but it was the first stage you’d be at, so the stakes were high. 

despite the nerves from the night before, you were happily enjoying yourself at the show. of course, every performance was incredible, and the crowd was energetic. by the time there was only one act left, you felt your body start to grow tired. an adrenaline rush hit you full force, however, when you saw the name “stray kids” light up the stage.

jaw dropped, you were silent while the rest of the crowd screamed. your eyes raced to find seungmin. he was on the opposite end of the stage, giving you at least a chance at composing yourself before he saw your face. the music started, and you joined the crowd’s cheers. seungmin’s stage presence and vocals in person were breathtaking, and you felt a swell of pride knowing that your soulmate was so talented.

as though he could sense you were thinking of him, seungmin turned his head to the area where you stood. the second you locked eyes, seungmin grinned like an excited puppy. he waved to you, feeling giddy enough to make a heart with his hands. you matched his energy, smiling widely and bouncing from the magic of it all. there he was, just across the room, saying “hi” to you and only you.

per the instructions seungmin mouthed from the stage, you waited in your seat for a bit until a staff member brought you backstage. despite the recording being done, the halls were crowded with bustling employees and idols alike. all of the noise was drowned out by someone calling your name.

“hey y/n! i like your outfit!”

you turned around, seeing seungmin waving again. he beamed, and you rushed over to him. 

“you remembered!”

seungmin laughed at your excitement, “i did forget my coffee though. it looks like your meet-cute won in the end.”

his eyes twinkled as he looked at you. rather than feeling nervous, you two chattered endlessly. you giggled at the way seungmin blushed when you complimented his performance. in turn, seungmin giggled at the way you blushed when he called you pretty. being able to have a conversation that exceeded the character limit of a sticky note left both of you with the zoomies, much to the entertainment of seungmin’s eavesdropping members. 

“seungmin!” hyunjin yelled from a suspiciously nearby spot, “we have to leave soon!” hyunjin waved at you, “hi y/n!”

you waved back, and seungmin told you to ignore hyunjin, which made you laugh. as you exchanged contact information, you kept your promise and examined seungmin’s phone case.

“i like your phone case, seungmin! it matches your style perfectly,” you pointed at the object in his hand.

“thank you!” seungmin grinned for the umpteenth time that day, proudly holding the phone out for you to see, “this is the best part, if you ask me.”

you were surprised to see a sticky note in the back of his phone case. you leaned closer to examine it, and you felt a wave of fondness wash over you. in his hand, seungmin held one of your earliest sticky notes. on it, you had drawn a picture of what you thought seungmin looked like, purely based on how he wrote. you were way off, which you learned once you saw a picture of him online. it did accurately capture seungmin’s personality, though, so seungmin was quite proud of your artistry. 

“it’s a one-of-a-kind drawing, so i wanted to show it off.”

seungmin’s tone was teasing, but you could feel the compliment, “you’re so sweet, seungmin! maybe i should have a matching one?”

he nodded, “i better see the portrait i drew of you in your phone case next time i see you.”

you laughed, “understood! i feel chan staring at us, so you should get going. call me when you get home?”

“of course!” seungmin smiled, “promise me one more thing?”

“hmm,” you feigned deep thought, “it depends on what it is.”

“next time you come to watch us perform, sit by my side of the stage.”

“only if i can see lee know too.”

seungmin glared at you momentarily, breaking into a laugh because he was so endeared by the pout you gave in response. after you said your goodbyes, you watched seungmin bound down the hall to meet his members. before he went around the corner, he turned to wave to you again, mouthing goodbye, soulmate!

A/n: this is just a short, quick story. I hope it’s alright, I wrote it really quickly and didn’t really edit it. enjoy! :)

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

Hyunjin had felt the way you tensed under his touch on the dance floor. He had seen the way your eyes clouded over with a realization he had hoped you’d never get.

And when he turned, his worst fear had come to life in less then a second.

He held you tighter, silently pleading you to stay with him. You almost couldn’t, you never really could.

Your future was set in stone from the moment you were born; from the moment your soulmark appeared.

Hyunjin had grown up along side you, and you two were the same in every right. Except one; Hyunjin didn’t have a soulmark.

Something so simple, yet so necessary had been stolen from him. Like a part of his soul had been snatched up and locked away. It was so cruel.

He would dwell on earth for the rest of his life, never to meet the other half of him, the half his soul longed for so greatly.

You had a soulmark though. Yet, it never stopped you from kissing Hyunjin. It never stopped you from running your fingers through his hair, or sneaking into his apartment at night. It never stopped you from waking up beside him in a mess of tangled limbs and thrown clothes.

To be fair, you did love Hyunjin. You loved him more then you loved the sun, more then you loved the stars. You loved him more then anyone in the entire world.

Except your soulmate.

You had promised the boy, in quiet whispers and gentle moans, that you would be his forever; that you would never leave him for your soulmate.

And really, truly, you believed that for years. Many, many years.

But when you saw him, with his freckled face and sparkly eyes, you couldn’t help but gasp.

He was stunning; the most beautiful man you had ever seen. And almost like he felt pulled towards you, his eyes snapped towards yours in less then a moment.

Your eyes moved to his neck and right there, right under his sharp jaw, you saw it; your soulmark. It was on him, and you knew what that meant.

This beautiful, freckled boy? He was yours. And you were his.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

“Tell me something I don’t know.” Hyunjin’s voice broke through the silence surrounding you both, a thoughtful look on his face.

It had been a month since you had seen the freckled boy. You had nearly burst into tears when you realized who he was. It wasn’t even because he was your soulmate, it was because you knew then, you would never be able to love Hyunjin as much as you loved your soulmate, no matter how hard you tried.

You paused, gazing at him as he walked, hand in hand, beside you. Your eyes traveled across the empty street, through the snowfall. You hesitated, the words that longed to slip off your tongue could make your whole world crash and burn. But even so, you couldn’t stop yourself from speaking.

“I don’t love you anymore.”

You continued walking, but stopped when his hand tugged on yours. When you turned, you expected him to be surprised or upset, but instead, his face was adorned with a small, sad smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.

“Tell me something I don’t know,” he repeated, hand squeezing yours just a little bit tighter.

You felt a tiny frown fall over your features and tears pool at your eyes. You felt horrible and utterly broken, not that you had any right to feel this way. You choked back a sob when his hand dropped yours, arms opening wide for you to curl into. You gave him a weak smile and dove into his grasp. He held you tight as you cried into his chest, mumbling apologies.

He too, cried. But he was silent, only a few tears rolling down his cheeks. He had watched you slowly come to terms with the fact that you were falling out of love with him. He felt numb now, numb to the fact that he had you once, and he would never have you again.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Hyunjin awoke in a cold sweat, chest heaving up and down frantically.

He reached to his side, palm smoothing over the empty bed.

Coldness seeped into his fingertips, the loss of your warmth also brought a tender pin to his heart. He retracted his hand sourly, not bothering to look to the empty side of his bed; the same place you used to lay.

He laid on his side, facing away from the ghost of you.

Tears rolled down his cheeks. Crying was becoming a normal occurrence or the boy, even if he tried to push his emotions away.

He sobbed for what felt like hours, which surprised him. He shouldn’t have been able to cry anymore, not with the smiling of tears he was shedding each night.

Fuck soulmarks, he cursed, fuck you, and most importantly, fuck your soulmate.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

You hadn’t talked to Hyunjin since then. It had only been a week, but you already missed him.

You knew he would probably never speak to you again, and even if he did, it wouldn’t be the same.

So, you did what every distressed person would do; you searched for your soulmate.

You searched for a whole week until finally, finally you found him.

He was at the same club you had seen him at with Hyunjin, and when you saw him, you couldn’t help but scold yourself for not thinking he would be here sooner.

When you approached him, you felt weak and shaky. This man was your future, he was anything and everything you would ever need again.

You pushed Hyunjin’s name aside, tapping the slender boy’s shoulder.

He immediately replied, head slowly turning towards you, “I have a soulmate, sorr—“ he abruptly stopped when he saw you.

Your eyes locked for what felt like eternity, and there, you realized you would get lost in the galaxy of his eyes forever. The stars that shimmered in his gaze were bright and beautiful, many of them even spilled out, into his cheeks.

“Hi,” he whispered, a sheepish grin on his face. He had an accent, though you couldn’t place it with your mind so hazy.

“Hi,” you answered, chewing on your lip. “So, you have a soulmate?” Your voice was just a mumble, so meek; it was unlike you.

He chuckled lowly and the noise sent a shiver down your spine. “Yep. Her name is..?” He looked at you expectantly.

You inhaled. “Y/n, her name his Y/n.”

“Mhm, that’s the one.” His hands reached out for your chin, gently moving your head to the side so that he could see your soulmark. It matched his, but he already knew that.

When his fingers feathered over your jaw, it felt like waves of electricity rolling up your spine. Your eyes widened, hand gripping his wrist.

He didn’t pull away, though the same eye-widened look was plastered across his sharp features.

“I have a soulmate too, for your information,” you suddenly blurted.

He lifted a brow. “Oh yeah?”

You pursed your lips, nodding curtly. “Yep! He wouldn’t like you touching me.”

“I actually know your soulmate and I think he’d be thrilled that I’m touching you,” the freckled boy answered matter-of-factly.

You hummed, “yeah? What’s his name then?”

“Felix,” his voice dropped back down to a whisper.

“Felix… that sounds about right,” you shivered.

The thought of Hyunjin was gone from your mind, your thoughts only trapped on your gorgeous soulmate.

Felix, Felix, Felix.

He was perfect.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Another week passed and Hyunjin still hadn’t seen you. He just continued on with his life; work, sometimes eat, drink, sleep. The cycle repeated, until one night, he decided enough was enough.

Sure, you weren’t his anymore, but you were still his best friend and he wasn’t gonna give that up just because you found your soulmate.

He cringed at the memory, but nonetheless, he pulled out his phone and texted you.

You didn’t answer for what felt like forever, but when you finally did 2 hours later at 11:30, he was quick to reply.

The two of you seemed tense, even over text. Hyunjin suggested you meet up, to which you immediately agreed.

Even if you felt like a complete jerk and horrible person for dropping Hyunjin so fast because of your soulmate, you still longed to see him.

You both planned to meet the next afternoon at one of the cafés you used to visit on a regular basis together; both as friends and a couple.

The next afternoon, when Hyunjin arrived, you weren’t there yet. He was thankful to have arrived first, it gave him time to get comfortable and prepare.

When you did walk in, right on time, his breath was stolen from him.

You were in a simple, grey shirt with black leggings on. You were wearing a necklace and a few bracelets to match, one of which was one he had gotten for you on your 18th birthday.

He felt tears already pool at his eyes when he stood, arms opening for you. When you embraced him, a wave of familiarity coursed through him. 

His hand smoothed over your hair, your face buried against his neck.

“Hey Jinnie,” you whispered, clutching onto his baggy hoodie. You missed him. You missed everything about him, from the quirk of his lips to the smell of his clothes.

Hyunjin softened, blinking away the dampness from his eyes. “Hey beautiful,” he sighed into your hair, “you smell good.”

A scoff left your lips, face pulling away from him. “Thanks, so do you.”

“I missed you, I missed us. As friends, as anything, really,” Hyunjin whispered as you reached up, fingers wiping away his stray tears.

“I missed you, too,” you admitted softly, fingers damp with his tears, eyes damp with your own.

The two of you watched each other in silent understanding.

Everything was changing for you, but that didn’t matter right now. At least, not as much as it did before.

Hyunjin didn’t have a soulmark, but he had you and that’s all he needed. Maybe one day, he’d meet someone else without a soulmark, but for now, having his best friend in his arms would be perfectly alright.

“I do love you, Jinnie. You know that, right? You’ll always have a piece of me,” your voice was weak, and he knew you were telling the truth.

“I know. I love you, too. It’s not your fault, it’s not anyone’s fault,” Hyunjin whispered, pulling you back against his chest.

The two of you stayed like that for what felt like forever. Eventually though, you let go and began to catch up. You discussed where the two of you would go from there on, you talked about Felix, which made Hyunjin so, so happy for you, but also broke his heart a bit.

Looking at you now, all smiles and giggles talking about Felix, Hyunjin knew letting you go was the best thing he could do, for the both of you.

It would be hard, but one day, far in the future, Hyunjin would move on.

Soulmark or not, Hwang Hyunjin was determined to find love again. No matter what, he would have a happy ending too.

But for now, he just smiled softly at you as you spoke about your beloved, freckled soulmate.

You were happy, and one day, Hyunjin would be, too.
