restlessmaknae's request event [guide]

Celebrating 6 years on Tumblr and a number of followers I thought I would never reach, I would like to repay you for your love and support in the form of a request event. Writing is a hobby of mine that allows me to escape, to push my boundaries, and to leave an impact on readers. Even if you crack a smile, laugh at the words or feel understood by them, I'm truly honoured that you've joined me on this journey. 💞

Now, onto the good stuff.

As voted by you, readers, in a previous poll of mine, you can request stories based on genres, settings, but you can also throw a prompt into the mix.

HOW DOES THAT WORK?

You send me an ask with a genre and/or setting and a certain idol in mind, but you can add a prompt from these lists as well (they might help with certain settings):

Prompt list #1: Enemies to lovers but one is injured

Prompt list #2: Prompts for ex-lovers

Prompt list #3: Sacred romantic moments

Prompt list #4: Hurt comfort starters

Prompt list #5: "I HATE YOU, BUT I JUST DID SOMETHING TO HELP YOU AND NOW I NEED TO EXPLAIN MYSELF" prompts

Here are some examples:

best friends to lovers with Jake (Enhypen)

prince!Intak (P1Harmony) in a fantasy kingdom

zombie apocalypse au with Serim (Cravity) + enemies to lovers

[prompt] with Hyunsuk (CIX)

[prompt] with Hyunsuk (CIX) + exes to lovers

[prompt] with Hyunsuk (CIX) + exes to lovers + murder mystery

RULES

Smaus, bulleted stories and reaction stories can't be requested

I don't write smut, and if I feel uncomfortable by your request, I have the right to reject it and not write it

Only member x reader/OC, no member x member stories can be requested (you can specify if you want a gender-neutral reader insert story, otherwise I write female!reader stories)

I decide on how long the story will be, but I plan on writing stories less than 5k for this event (so expect drabbles and one-shots)

There's no deadline by which I plan on posting your story, it depends on how much time I have beside my full-time job and how much inspiration I have for your requested story - so please, bear with me, I'll get around to it as soon as I can 🥰

One user can request up to 2 stories - for tagging reasons, I kindly ask you to let me know about the blog you want me to tag in case you would write the ask on anon (for instance, if your main blog isn't kpop-related, you can write on anon and tell me your kpop sideblog's URL/username)

I close the requests after receiving 12 requests or by 30th September - whichever comes first

I will combine all the requests into a masterlist as soon as they start coming in, so you know that I've received your message

are you ready? it's time for...

best stylings of 2022, first half!!

this covers my favourite stylings from january 1st to june 30th; which i am bolding and italicizing bc some people got on my ass last year about leaving things out when in fact they just did not read the title! so!! this is only half of the year!!

here's a rundown of the categories i'm using:

best overall - self explanatory: this covers cbs that were holistically well designed across the mv, music show stages, and any other promotional material that was released during the cb period

runners' up - this category is for ones that got it about half right; either they had a really good music video but the stages didn't match up, or they had really good stages but the mv was lacking. i also put mvs here that didn't get any other promotional materials

standout element - this is for one off stages or outfits that stuck out to me as being really excellent, but there wasn't the same consistency across the rest of the cb

ok, make sense? let's go!

best overall

i hate you - woodz

i'm not gonna mince words here, you all saw me go insane over this cb so there's no way it wasn't gonna be in first place. frankly i'm surprised i survived the promo period at all. i'm obsessed with the choice for them to shoot the mv in a modern art gallery (i THINK it might be the same one that cl shot her alpha performance video at last year) because i love when there's a meta acknowledgement of idols as artistic products and how they interact with different forms of art etc etc etc anyways here's all the links to stuff i went insane over you're welcome: mv behind, this jacket from its live, and honestly this one is about the backup dancers more than him but it's cute.

stages: mcountdown 220512, music core 220507, music bank 220506, the show 220510, show champion 220511

bsides: hijack the show 220510, show champion 220511

+

gingamingayo - billlie

they deserved to go viral for this, the mv is amazing, the styling is so consistent despite the fact that they did like a full month of promotions, and overall it's just a fun time. they set the precedent for all the ~quirky~ gg cbs that showed up after this. it has so much character and established the weird world that their story exists in, so even though it was very early on in the year, it claims one of my top spots.

stages: contour 220304, music bank 220318, inkigayo 220320, the show 220308

+

dice - onew

this was not a popular cb in my circles but too bad, i thought it was very fun and extremely well designed. great mv with a cute lil narrative and creative choices building on a very clear influence, plus some very fun costume pieces, some incredible stage design, and some gorgeous graphic design. 10/10.

stages: mcountdown 220414, inkigayo 220417, music core 220423

bsides: on the way music bank 220415, inkigayo 220417

+

bad news - tempest

an extremely strong debut that has definitely set a new tone for the incoming next generation of bgs for sure. everything about this styling is chaotic over the top mess reminiscent of early 2010s kpop mixed with a retro 90s feel that is always a joy to watch. we love to see a return to cheesy and bright boy group form and i have my fingers crossed that we're gonna start seeing it catch on beyond the flops in 2023.

stages: mcountdown 220303, music bank 220304, show champion 220309, the show 220308, music core 220305, music core 220312, inkigayo 220313, mcountdown 220317, music bank 220325, music core 2200326

bsides: just a little bit, bad at love

+

undercover - verivery

and i am including the japanese version in this, because it has the best outfit, which is kangmin's pink satin tracksuit that i may or may not think about every day. verivery doesn't usually catch my attention but i loved the prerelease single o from this album so it made me tune into the undercover cb when it dropped. this has been one of the few 'retro' stylings (there's been a myriad of 90s/00s revivals) that actually took some very recognizable silhouettes from the period and combined them with a contemporary flavour successfully and consistently. there's so much good texture and the sheer amount of satin they used is just (chef's kiss).

stages: the show 220503, music core 220514, mcountdown 220505, inkigayo 220501, music core 220521, music bank 220513, music bank 220506, the show 220517, show champion 220504, music core 220507, inkigayo 220508

o: mcountdown 220331, music bank 2200401

+

stupid cool - dawn

dawn once again proving that he and his team understand styling and fashion a lot better than most stylists working in the industy rn. he has such a strong sense of how to use silhouette and texture and i love how every new stage keeps you guess about what insane thing he's gonna wear next. this is also one of the few cbs where i actually think they should have just used the performance video for the final mv, bc its SO good. there's a few small things that i don't love which is why this doesn't rank higher, but there's still a lot that i do, so i kept from the runners' up category.

stages: mcountdown 220707, mcountdown 220630, music bank 220701, inkigayo 220703

+

devil - changmin

it was short but sweet, every look is a banger and i am going to include maniac and fever here as well, because it's also incredible. although all three of these songs have no aesthetic unity across them, this album very much was an exploration of genres that changmin is interested in and creating characters to embody each of those songs; we have the american gothic corrupt preacher with devil, the classic rock besieged horror heroine with maniac, and the capitalist victorian villain from an alw musical. i'd also recommend watching the jacket shooting behind to see more details from the looks in the concept photos, bc those are also excellent.

stages: music core 220115, inkigayo 220116

bsides: fever performance video - dgg

+

bring it on - oneus

bring it on had so much fun character and a great series of prologue films as well, and i feel like it didn't get the love it deserved. there are so many things happening in this mv and it's very busy visually, so for them to be able to keep it coherent despite the sheer number of sets is impressive. rbw has great creative teams and it's no surprise that a oneus mv ended up in my top ten.

stages: music bank 220520, inkigayo 220522, show champion 220525, mcountdown 220602

+

grey suit - suho

i might not have loved the title track as a song, but the mv is fucking gorgeous with some profoundly beautiful shots and like with changmin, the album as a whole is fantastic work and he produced a similar style goofy fun bside mv for hurdle that ended up being his go to concert song this year. both have really consistent design and colour palettes across the two of them, even though they're two totally different styles of song, which is a detail that i really admire. and the concept photos were gorgeous as well.

stages: music bank 220408, inkigayo 220410

bsides: hurdle mcountdown 220407

+

daydream - highlight

fantastic cb from them and excellent album in general, with some unusual silhouette choices. and they fully produced their album medley as well, which i don't think i've seen a group do to this same extent. it's beautiful, i highly recommend watching it. highlight has been quietly flying under the radar since their first post enlistment cb last year, and as the hag fan that i am i'm going to continue to remind everyone that they exist and are doing some of the best quality work in the industry atm.

stages: music core 220326, inkigayo 220327, music bank 220325,

bsides: night fog music bank 220325

+

runners' up

heart burn - sunmi

honestly this should rank higher bc it was such a good cb and everything about it was so well done, but there was just too much that came out this year and i had to bump some things down just because of quantity and the fact that tumblr limits how many links and videos you can put in a post. so please know this was in a top spot in my heart.

+

invu - taeyeon

i wrote a post about invu already so i won't expound on it more, but it got knocked down to runners' up just bc i didn't love all the looks, but i did love a lot of the dedication and thought and engagement they put into the cb as a whole.

+

dududu - tan

also already wrote an entire post about this styling, i love it i'm obsessed one of THE best debuts of all time etc etc etc you've heard me yell about them many times already. although i have to issue one addition: for some reason i didn't include inkigayo 220403 where they gave jiseong a gorgeous blue crushed velvet suit.

+

again - nu'est

this is only here because they never did any performances of it. the only group that's ever done anything good with hybe money and what did they get for it??? the nu'est disbandment is easily one of the most gutwrenching things to happen to me and it's double compounded by their disbandment song being called 'again'. what a fucking cruel joke. anyways this mv is fucking gorgeous even if it makes me feel like i'm eating broken glass.

+

epitaph - tvxq

yes this is a japanese release but they haven't done a korean cb in like four years at this point so i'm taking what i can get. incredible set design, great costuming, who doesn't loves some hot tall vampires?

+

feel my rhythm - red velvet

the mv is 100% the standout element here, it's so unbelievably detailed and full of art references. however i didn't love all of the costuming so the stages didn't really stand out for me. ok that's a lie, i really liked the styling for music core 220326.

+

love - monsta x

could i have told you what the concept of this cb was? no. was it chaotic and very fun to watch anyways? absolutely. i present to you: versace. kihyun's obliques. whatever this lace suit nonsense is. idk what a 'vibe' outfit is but they should have done a stage in them.

+

skinz - onlyoneof

i've talked about the mv for skinz before, but there have been a couple of stages that are just kinda batshit crazy, like whatever the hell is happening here, and this 220114 music bank with the cropped puffer jackets and kb's tshirt bodysuit. i'm not even convinced what kb is wearing here is even considered a shirt. honestly i could have ranked this cb as a whole higher because there were just so many weird suits and i did like the mv, but i did have to limit this list at some point.

+

cupid - dkz

we love a cb of just guys being dudes! i actually do like the mv but it doesn't tie as well into the stages as i would like, so it doesn't get the full honours. but i would like offer you a selection of: pink, jonghyeong's xxxxl shirt, kyungyoon looking like a caricature of a kid in the early 90s, and kyungyoon's sexy lil cropped green bomber jacket

+

11:59 - apr project

these are all former trncg members (a third gen bg that disbanded due to an abuse and mismanagement lawsuit) that are redebuting in a new group and honestly? good for them. this mv was made with about $30 but it's one of my favourites of the year specifically because of the context and the moment at 2:41, which is SUCH a strong image and not one i was expecting. this was one of my soppy emo ballads of choice this year. also wolf baby revival when.

+

standout elements

memem story films - purple kiss // memem is probably the weakest of purple kiss' title tracks in terms of both sound and design, which was bound to happen eventually. however the story films are PHENOMENAL and i absolutely recommend watching them (plus bonus recurring character cya!): #1, #2.

creature - e'last // once again, e'last with an excellent showing of dedication to the man crop top agenda and guys bein' slutty for no real reason. show champion 220511, music bank 220513, show champion 220504, the show 220503

beauty inside - nine.i // i love these denim suits with loopy flowers and shapes that match the flower petal motif in the choreography.

x-ray - ghost9 // these sparkly vampire outfits that never appeared in any of the other styling or design but fuck supremely.

tank - nmixx - costumes that accentuate the choreography? in my jype styling???

---

part two will hopefully be up in few days!

Warning; Teasing, heavy flirting, Minuplulation, Game playing, Using, Oral (Giving), Cum mixing, public sex, Sex partner swapping, hair pulling, degrading, edging & orgasm denial

Notes; 🥳 🎂 Happy Birthday Im Changkyun ❤️

Your mind numb, you drag him into the cubical of the toilets of the club. His hands find themselves back to your waist as there tight grip reminds you he’s not as drunk as you think. It’s been so long, yet you need this, you suppose deep down you even need him, but you won’t admit those emotions just yet.

Your ex Changkyun wasn’t who you imagined you would bump into on a night out with the girls. The relationship going sour a few years prior, yet leaving you still deprived of his skills to make you feel good.

The second your eyes roamed each other, behind the surprise you both wore was desire. Your favourite drink and his darkened luring eyes had your thighs tightening with cherished memories. Biting down on his lip as you deliberately leaned towards him, letting him capture more skin to view had you inwardly smirk. The in-line of his hardening cock rising in his Jeans had you smile devilishly his way. Small talk passing briefly between the strong flirting as your group of friends was soon gone from not just your view but thoughts.

You knew he was on the same page then you, both wanting to reminisce in a certain memory of your long doomed past relationship. Subtly avoiding your carnal desires yet beneath it, it had become a form of cat & mouse. Between the seducing eyes and actions the words a confusing bundle of denial yet daring.

You was both enjoying dancing with other partners making the other jealous, when his hands found there way to your waist pushing you to both give a fiery show.

Hips grinding between hands brushing at every sensitive part of each of your body’s. Smirking each time you notice the other react, you rest your lips just a inch away from his. His eyes widening telling you he was threatening to fold in the game, surrendering himself to you.

When he did you enjoyed teasing him further, by moving your lips back from his chasing ones. “Say the words,” you whisper into his ear smiling proudly when he shivers. Changkyun always shows the deep serious side, but you always seem to crack him. His eyes looking blown as he struggles to have the words to form.

You turn around letting your ass brush his bulge as you Dance to punish him. Hands heavily throwing to your hips, instead of pushing you away as he pulls you closer. Like he’s chasing his own torture, you hear his struggle as he pants in your ear. You will be a fool to admit that your just as close to breaking yourself. But the pettiness in you won’t let you give in, determined to have him fold first.

Hands falling behind you to rest around his neck you face your cheek across his, letting the warmth of his skin burn against yours. “You know you want me,” you chuckle as he releases a small growl. “Keep thinking that,” he snarls a little before gently pushing you away to walk off.

You wait a couple of seconds to risk a slight view towards his new location. Smiling like the vixen you are, you let your body continue the torture as he looks from the bar. Tossing back the shot your sure he took not just for courage but to attempt to calm himself, he smiles in an attempt to show you his restraint.

Knocking a further button from your crop shirt top to your cleavage, your eyes brush back to him once more. His eyes dart to the female by his side who’s showing him attention. Though jealousy brushing through you, your core reacts to his little show. He’s not your lover no more so all hard line jealousy is replaced with a more desire.

You want to push him to see how far he will go, so you wink at the sexy yet slightly shy Young man on the dance floor not far from you. Blushing furiously your way, you make your way closer like an animal ready to devour there food. You give minimum talk as you flutter your eye lashes his way, letting your hands caress his collar bone over the see through shirt he’s wearing.

Your eyes flash to Changkyun, who instead of looking jealous seems to like the new direction of the game. His hands playing with the hair of his poor victim in his sight. You can see she’s falling for his charms as she laughs his way with little doe eyed expressions. You feel a little guilty that she will get used and ditched in this game between you both. But it does nothing to pause your direction.

Hands pressing against your own victims ass, you startle him when you pull him towards you as your pelvis clash. “Your such a cute little thing,” you compliment as he reddens further. Feeling his member twitching against you has you bite your lip to ground yourself. Your so turned on you could easily fall if the words you want Changkyun to spit out fall from his instead. “What’s your name?” you ask brushing your hands behind his ears. “Yeonho,” he smiles showing you his snaggle teeth and you can’t help but feel sorry in that moment as guilt washes over you. You could see he was kind hearted and sweet and such a perfect person to enjoy breaking in one of your games, but not one through manipulation.

Turning to face your former lover, you find him in a clinch with his own victim. The way he was kissing her told you he was releasing himself from all his urges from you. Winking at you he walked her to the unisex bathrooms, ready to let her milk him to all the pent up emotions you had tortured him with.

Yeonho’s eyes take yours seconds later, seemingly almost transfixed with your expression. “He’s your ex right?” Yeonho whispered making you blink his way. “It’s ok, he’s not an ex I want,” you smile knowing the truth that you don’t want him back, just to torture and fuck. “So you want to fuck to get him jealous?” he says too unpure for the look of innocence in his features. “Clever, cute as well as beautiful then,” you complimented as he smiles to your compliment. “Then let’s fuck and give them a good show,” Yeonho smiles with his smooth angelic voice. “You offering yourself to be my toy?” you asked shocked. “I’m not here for a relationship, I’m here to get laid and your here wanting to get him jealous, so let’s use each other and ditch,” he said with lust filling his eyes as if he was changing his personality right infrount of you . “There was me thinking you was as innocent as a perfect puppy,” you smirked. “I’m no puppy,” he says with glowing desire, his hands finding yours as he places them on his hardening bulge. “So take me, I’m all yours,” he says almost pleadingly. Your body shivers from his words as you crash like you knew you would at his pleading.

Dragging him, you take him to the restroom. You can hear the sounds of Changkyun’s temporary lover and you can feel your panties dampen. Lips clashing around Yeonho’s, you drag him into the cubical next to there’s. Yeonho’s eyes darken with lust as he pushes you away. You smile at the wrong impression of his innocence as he flips you to place your hands against the thin timber between you and your ex. His hands rushing to your panties as he rips them, not caring that your now be exposed all night. Biting your lips, you feel pleased at the new turn of events, stifling a chuckle as anticipation hits.

Like he’s impatient he slams himself in to you as cry’s fill the air. Yeonho rests his head against your shoulder as he sets his pace. His panting in your ear is driving you crazy, but not as much as Changkyun’s grunts from beyond the surface you was propped up against. While Changkyun was grunting as he held his louder moans that you knew he was capable of, his girl was letting you know that she was being pounded against. The mixture of sounds and situation was highly enticing. Your walls clench around Yeonho, dragging a moan from his lips. Pushing yourself back into his thrusts, his thrusts become heavier to spill moans of your own.

“Kyun,” you hear from the female, hearing your own pet name for him filling your core with jealousy. “That’s it baby, you tell them who’s filling your pretty pussy right now,” you hear Changkyun whisper.

Your walls tightening around Yeonho has his hands reach to your hair as it pulls, stinging your scalp with each yank. Your moans fill the ear as your pushed towards the edge. “My name?” Yeonho growls as you obey. Anyone walking even close to the toilets would think it was some kind of brothel as all senses to hold your sounds are thrown out the window. “Come baby,” Yeonho coos as he attempts to chase his own high. You can hear mixtures of words fall from Changkyun’s lips. Not that you can understand his orders as blood is rushing to your ear as you chase your orgasm. Growling loudly in your ear Yeonho reaches his high, removing himself as you feel his seed splatter the back of your legs, painting you in a mess.

Laughing he steps back zipping himself up as you hear Changkyun’s girl fall off her high. Your eyes widen at the guy you once thought was innocent. Arms folded with pure wickedness he smirked. “What’s up, no one said who was doing the using,” he said throwing a wink over his shoulder as he left you feeling cum stained, pantie-less and extremely horny. Changkyun’s cry’s from his own high hits the air, having you close your eyes to hold your self up.

Sitting on the toilet seat, your fingers rush to your wet soaking folds as you rub eights into your nub. Chasing your high once more, you let your other hand grip to your breasts, imagining Changkyun holding them. The sounds of conversation beside you almost tuned out as you attack yourself furiously tethering over the edge.

Just as your about to cum the door that your foot was resting against pushes open. Your strength no longly behind as they drop to let him witness how desperate you look. Arms folded and smirking he looks at you like he’s enjoying your torture.

Fingers dropping you rush to him letting your lips fall to his as you get lost in his kiss. He’s happily obliging as you’ve given up the game of making him chase you. Your so turned on you don’t care, nor that he’s had another girl around his cock, you need him, you need to release.

You pull him into the cubicle as his hands tighten on your hips as you get lost to him. His hands fondling your naked ass as you hear him hum in your mouth. You can taste the whisky from his lips and it’s highly enticing. “Baby I need a little help, If you want me to help you,” he pouts smirking as he pushes your lips away from his.

Laughing as you tilt your head at him he unzips himself, pulling his softened cock free once more. You suddenly realise what he means. “What the fuck no fucking way, that’s disgusting, it’s been in another woman,” you said scrunching your face. “Oh then I can’t help you sorry,” he said stuffing himself back into his boxes.

You watch in horror as he zips himself up as he smirks. Somehow you’ve managed to walk right into the trap where your the one begging for some sort of scraps. “Ok wash yourself off and then,”, “no, you take it how it is or go find another toy boy to fill your needs,” he says winking as he turns to open the cubicle door.

“Fine,” you huff feeling disgusted with yourself. Pulling him in, your hands return to free him as you sink to your knees. Placing his cock into your mouth you start sucking him off as he reacts immediately. “Fuck this is so hot watching you suck off another woman’s juices from my cock,” he smirks as you bob up and down his shaft, that is hardening in your mouth. You feel ashamed to admit that another woman’s juices actually tastes not too bad. Your hands fondle his balls like you remember how he likes it as you set a more speedy pace. Hands entwining with your hair he meets your mouths rhythm, making you gag. Chuckling he yanks your hair pulling you from his cock as he looks down smirking. “You like sucking my cock clean from other women right,” he smirks as you stumble to stand up.

Crashing his lips he kisses you more fiercer then earlier as he enjoys the overwhelming power and control he has over your needy self. Sitting on the seat he pumps himself as he bites his lips looking at you. “Come ride me then,” he says raising one eyebrow higher then the other.

Hovering over his tip he throws you down on to his cock startling you. His member pressing precisely against your sweet spot has your wall clench around him. “Baby I’ve cum, I’ve done my hard work, you better get to work, I’m not helping,” he gloats as you set your tempo. Leaning himself backwards a little, he enjoys watching you bounce up and down his cock. “Hold your breasts like you was earlier,” he coos as you releases them. Holding your palm around you knead them as you ride him. Biting down on his lips once more he looks lost in the view as you chase your orgasm, which since Yeonho is not quite falling off the edge.

“Baby, your so pathetic right now you know that,” he growls with your chin between his thumb and index finger, when he leans towards you. Choking out a yes you increase your speed. “Looks like I need to help your pathetic ass out,” he snarls as his hands rush to your hips. Using his strength he manhandles you as he helps you to Bob up and down his cock, all while he lifts his pelvis up into you. Loud pitch screams fill the air, without a care for where you are as you slowly begin to lose your mind. His own moans tell you he’s chasing his own high as you both look into each other’s eyes a little lost in the moment. It’s like the times lost between you disappeared as you both fight for survival together. He growls really loudly as he spills his hot cum deep in you. The feel of him inside you pushes you to the edge of your high.

Like Yeonho before, he leaves you wanting and more desperate as he pulls you off him. “Changkyun,” you cry as he smirks standing up. “What’s up baby,” he mocks as he zips himself away. “Please,” you cry in absolute desperation. “This was a game was it not,” he smirks as you look in horror. “Please,” you whimper not caring how pathetic you look or sound. Opening the door of the cubicle Yeonho is perched on the sink with pure amusement. The way they look at each other has the penny drop, it’s clear they know each other. “What the fuck,” you cry looking at them both as Yeonho sinks to the floor to stand with Changkyun.

“What? did you think you would win at me being a feeble horny mess,” he smirked. Leaning towards you once more he smiles biting his lips. “Y/N you can’t beat me,” he whispers into your ear as he brushes a kiss to your cheek. Turning he leaves you behind him pleading, Yeonho following but not before winking at you as he follows his Hyung.

How the hell had Changkyun turned the tables that night, both him and the innocent cute young man both had left you horny as hell and unable to release yourself. Beneath the pain from the orgasm that you’ve been denied, your slightly proud at the vixen you somehow created in him.

TOMMYINNIT KPOP FASHION BY LE ME!!!

Hello, I am a kpop and fashion expert (this is an unproven fact) and I’m here to spin you a tale about what type of fashion Tommy would be forced to wear if he was a kpop idol. I’m going to talk about stage outfits bc casual outfits are self explanatory.

OK: I already mentioned it but Tommy can’t be too cool and crafted (think like BTS or EXO) but he also can’t be too wild or camp (like NCT) he needs to be right in the middle of boyish charm and loser.

A PERFECT EXAMPLE IMO is P1harmony Scared era + debut era

REASON: [1st pic] I think he would look good in a track suit like Theo (pink hair). [2nd pic] The baggy clothes and jackets would work with his frame well, like Jeongseob & Soul (dark red hair & black hair respectively). They’re the perfect amount of loser boy but well put together that would look good wirh Tommy IMO..

Other examples include: TEMPEST BAD NEWS, CRAVITY ADRENALINE, and VERIVERY TAG TAG TAG

Can you see I’m favoring red? He’s that idol who would only be seen in one color tbh. Thess outfits are cute and put together but they don’t ooze coolness which is good TO ME

I also think he could pull off the school boy concept a la Cravity, Astro, and Seventeen just bc he’s young and has charm. Plus he already does it in vlogs sooooo why can’t he have his own Adrenaline or Confession, or Mansae moment? Side note: he would be great in Adrenaline. I just really believe this with my heart <- crazy

Le examplez:

He would look cute HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH sidenote: I think purpled could pull off this concept perfectkg like actually perfectly you guys don’t understand how perfect I think it is for him you seriously don’t get it <- actually crazy

SIDE SIDE NOTE: You canr just put him in any song with this fashion though. The song has to sound a specific way otherwise it doesn’t work. BEST SONGS FOR TOMMY are songs rhat have a youthful sound and focus on a bubblegum/upbeat sound. MY LIST INCLUDES (GO LISTEN): Adrenaline by Cravity, Tag Tag Tag by Verivery, Angel or Devil by Txt, Shooting Star by newkidd, and It’s U by golden child. Possibly nct dream

SONGS THAT ARE COMPLETELY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT HE SHOULD EVER DO: Love Shot by EXO, Mhm by Kai, Anything by Taemin, Sunset by KNK, Mad Dog by NCT

SONGS THAT DONT FIT BUT WOULD BE HILARIOUS: 2 Baddies by nct127, Sticker by nct127, Next Level by aespa, Barbie by Yeeun

optional bias

The smell of food made you turn around to see b/n standing in the doorframe of your studio apartment. 

You were stuck on a project, you couldn’t put your head around. Staring blankly at your screen, waiting for the light bulb to shine. It never happened though, so you vented out your frustation to your best friend and lover. 

They, of course, suggested taking a break the moment they came over. You immediately agreed, knowing that just seeing them would calm you down.

Even though the lockdown has been slightly lifted, you made sure that everything is clean when they arrives. Obviously also leaving a hand sanitizer near the door even though you guys wash your hands properly.

The moment they arrived, you jumped out of your seat (knowing you wanted to get the project done but couldn’t) and took the bags of food from them.

As you prepared to take everything out the bag, they got ready with the drinks.

Sitting down in front of the tv, watching whatever just played, you enjoyed the company. 

‘Thank you for the food and coming over,’ you said with your mouth full.

‘Of course. Everything for my baby!’ they replied with the cutest smile ever.

And that’s how you spend the rest of your afternoon, forgetting all about your worries.

Verivery “Getting caught in the act” Legal members

 Verivery Masterlist                                       Group Masterlist

Ask:  Hii! Can I request a verivery reaction (minus Kamgmin) when either they catch you having sex with another member or they are the ones getting caught having sex with tou (reader)🤔

Dongheon: 

You were incredibly thankfull for 2 things: 1 being the fact that Dongheon had a room alone and 2 being that his hand was clasped over your mouth in an attempt to keep you quiet. His other gripping at your waist for leverage as he fucked you from behind. The position left your back arched and your eyes rolling back and you gripped the sheets. 

However him having a room alone didn’t necessarily keep the other members at bay. Especially not when Hoyoung had something he really needed to ask Dongheon, something about a section in a song that sounded off. He didn’t think twice about pushing into his room as he had done millions of times before.

Dongheon had just leaned over to whisper in your ear, hand still clasped over your mouth when Hoyoung walked in. Dongheon nearly instantly let you go, his body leaving yours as Hoyoung almost instantly left the second he saw the scene. Dongheon was embarrassed but still managed to block you from anyone seeing anything, no matter how red his face was. 

“Always knock!” Dongheon yelled through the door, knowing Hoyoung was in an ear shot. “Don’t do it while we’re in the dorms then!” Hoyoung retorted back as Dongheon sank into your arms, needing the comfort of your touch to make his embarrassment go away. 

“Of everyone it had to be Hoyoung, I’m never gonna live this down.” 

Hoyoung: 

Hoyoung had quite a good sense of self control, he could definitely push his needs to the side if the situation didn’t fit it. But things bubble up of course and the second that others were out of the dorm, waiting wasn’t on his to-do list. 

Now you were on top of him, lips connected between small fits of giggles and moans. Riding him gently as he smiled at you, hands gripping at your thighs and hips. “You look so pretty.” He mumbled softly, kissing your lips again as you giggled at his sweet words. The two of you didn’t hear the door to the dorm open, being entirely too immersed in eachother to even acknowledge someone else. 

But Yeonho just wanted to go to bed, schedule had been taxing on him and he was tired. He absolutely didn’t think twice about the giggles he could hear, thinking that you two were probably just watching a movie. So he simply pushed the door open and froze, not knowing whether to laugh or scream. So he opted for both. 

Hoyoung didn’t hesitate to pull you down on him in attempts to cover you up, yelling the entire time he did so. “Get out, get out!” You were laughing at the situation, feeling embarrassed yourself but even more so at how red his face had gotten. Yeonho, whilst laughing, left the room and shut the door. The situation left Hoyoung entirely paralized, laying back in bed with wide eyes. 

“I’m sorry, the sex was fun while it lasted but I can never do it again.” 

Minchan: 

Soft kisses were being peppered over your jaw and neck as you ran your fingers through the wavy tresses of hair. Minchan was being sweet, taking his time with you after having not seen you for a while. The few hours you had alone were truly being well spent as you were caged under him, hips rocking into yours at a gentle pace. 

Minchan had told the others to text him when they were on their way home, assuming they would listen to his request but he was horribly mistaken. His request had gone over their heads, most definitely over Gyehyeon’s as he burst into the bedroom, half taking his coat off as he did so. 

The sudden interruption sent a wave of panic through you both, Minchan pulling the sheets up to cover both of your compromising positions. However Gyehyeon was frozen, looking anywhere except for Minchan’s bed. “I’m so sorry.” He uttered, holding back laughter before finally finding the courage to turn around and shut the door loudly. 

Minchan was speechless and simply stroked your hair as a silent apology before laying down next to you and starting to laugh. You covered your mouth, stifling your own laughter at how awkward you suddenly felt and turning to hide your face into his shoulder. 

“I told them to text me before they got home. I was stupid to think they’d listen.” 

Gyehyeon: 

It was that intense look in his eye that convinced you to join him in his room in the first place. That and the promise that the others wouldn’t be home for a little while. It all led to one of his hands being tangled in your hair as his lips assaulted neck and he fucked up into you. 

You were absolutely immersed in how you were feeling, nails digging into his shoulders and whines leaving your mouth. He was feeling the same, listening and taking in every movement, sound, and expression. Being so focussed, you both didn’t hear Yongseung entering the room but you did hear the gasp and the furious apologies. 

This was enough to make you both pull apart, pulling the sheets up to cover yourself as Gyehyeon left the bed to push Yongseung out. Shutting the door and leaning against it, looking at you with the most pitiful expression. 

“So what do I have to do to make it up to you?” Gyehyeon asked and you covered your face with the sheet to hide your laughter and embarrassment. “You have to do a lot.” You told him, peaking at him from under the sheet. He moved back over to and pulled the sheet back enough to peck your lips. 

“Then I’ll do a lot to make it up to you.” 

Yeonho:

He was being cheeky but that wasn’t new, however it was natural that this led to other things. Like you being pressed into the mattress with your legs wrapped around his waist. Lips messy against eachother as he picked up the pace and he groaned against your lips. 

You both were so incredibly close, explaining the lack of awareness around your surroundings. You were so blissfully unaware that it took Dongheon letting out a shriek to even let you know that he had entered the room. He had heard some noises and thought something was wrong, truly thinking someone was hurt or so. This wasn’t what he wanted to see. 

Yeonho had never moved so fast, pulling away from you in a panic and covering himself up to look at his hyung in shame. Dongheon had long turned around mainly to make sure he didn’t see more of you than what you were comfortable with as you tried to cover up. 

“Okay, none of you are hurt.I thought you were, my job is done. I’m sorry.” He said and Yeonho let out a scoff. “Get out?Why didn’t you knock?” He stood up, pushing him out of the room fully and shutting the door as you sat in shock. “I can’t believe that just happened.” You uttered and he shook his head, watching you wrap yourself in blankets. 

“So I’m assuming the mood is gone?” 

Yongseung: 

It took exactly one raise of Yongseung’s brow to get you in bed with him, adrenaline coursing through his veins after a live performance and needing to get some of the energy out. The other’s had gone out to eat after, but he was hungry for something else. 

So now with your face pressed into your pillow, you were trying your best to muffle your own sounds. Even if the members weren’t there, the apartment building didn’t need to hear everything going down. His hand slid down your back and moved to grip your hair. 

You were just about to cum, feeling awfully close to it when Minchan entered the room without thought. You let out a shriek and moved away from Yongseung with an embarrassed laugh. Yongseung was frozen as Minchan stood frozen himself, before simply uttering “I’m so sorry.” and walking away.

Yongseung was still frozen, just comprehending everything that just happened as you sat staring at him. “Please tell me that didn’t happen and this is a nightmare.” He said and you shook your head. “I wish I could, I really wish I could.” You said, running your hands through your wild hair. Yongseung finally moved, wrapping his arms around you for comfort. 

“I can’t ever leave this room, ever again.”

Verivery as Fanfiction Tropes

I just randomly had the idea to do this, since I love Verivery and I feel like a lot of the members have very specific tropes that they fit into well. However, I’ll be honest and say I had a hard time with a few of them, as they could fit multiple different tropes. Anyways, I hope you enjoy and if you disagree, just remember its all for fun and only my opinion :)

Dongheon - Brothers Best Friend

“You know,” You said out the window at the man who had been throwing pebbles at your window for almost 10 minutes. 

It was late in the evening, everyone else in your house getting to sleep peacefully while you had to deal with the boy you’d had a crush on ever since your brother brought him to your house for the first time. You’ll never forget that day, as the memory of him smiling awkwardly at you and lingering around the kitchen when the boys would emerge from your brother’s room for a snack.

He only grew more bold since the; talking to you regularly to getting your social media to now coming to your house to meet with you in secret instead of seeing your brother.

“If my brother ever finds out about you coming to see me, he’ll be pissed.” you laughed playfully, leaning out on the window frame to get a better look at the man on the lawn. 

Dongheon smiled up at your window, glad to finally get your attention after what seemed to him to be an eternity. 

He couldn’t leave you alone. His best friend had warned him before, you were off limits. But from the first time he met you, he felt like he would have rather ditched your brother and spent time with you instead. But he settled for meeting you in the shroud of night and being secretive. It was the best of both worlds; keeping his friend and getting to see you too.

“That’s fine sweetheart,” He hummed, brushing his hair out of his face with a chuckle, “Nothing could keep me away from you, not even your brother.”

You felt your face heat up as you tried to contain the hearty laugh that was bubbling in your chest at Dongheon’s antics. He grinned in victory as he waved his hand for you to come down to meet him.

“If you’re that afraid of him finding out his best friend is sneaking around with his sister, why don’t I take you somewhere else? Somewhere where it’s less likely to wake your family up.” Dongheon suggested, jabbing his thumb behind him in the direction of his car. You rolled your eyes at him, leaning back inside the window.

“You will be the death of me, Lee Dongheon...” You sighed, shaking your head, stupid grin covering your face before you gave him one last look, “Let me grab a coat and I’ll be right down. Be quiet while you wait.”

Hoyoung - Soulmates

It seemed everyone else in the world had met their soulmate except Hoyoung. At this point, he was sure the world would stay this dull grey scale forever. Maybe he didn’t have a soulmate? Maybe love just wasn’t in the cards for him in this lifetime.

“Dude, I’m telling you, this cafe is really cool!” Minchan stressed once again, walking down the pavement with Hoyoung trudging behind, “It’s really worth the far walk, I swear.”

“I’m sure it is,” Hoyoung hummed flatly, shoulders slouching slightly and arms falling at his sides.

They made it to the front of the cafe, a bright sign lit up to display the name. Hoyoung only assumed they would be coloured but alas, he couldn’t tell. 

“Oh, sorry, let me hold that for you.” Minchan said politely, holding the door open for a person who was just trying to leave at the same time the two boys had arrived.

“Thank you!” You said with a bow, exiting the cafe and starting the trek home. As you passed the two boys, your hand accidentally brushed up against Hoyoung’s, creating a static shock in your fingers. You continued down the street, unaware of what was happening to the man you just touched by accident.

Hoyoung felt a sudden warm feeling bloom from the finger you touched that shot up his arm and sat deep in his chest. Looking back up at the sign, he could see the faintest hint of green start to paint the bright neon lights. He couldn’t believe his eyes; The colour spread to other things, like the redness of the brick wall of the cafe bleeding into his vision and the softness of the blue sky coming into focus. It was like he had actually seen the world for the very first time.

“You coming dude?” Minchan asked, snapping Hoyoung out of his daze. He whipped his head around to see you walking, head down looking at the grey cement under your feet, completely unaware.

“Hang on one minute...” He called to his friend, not taking his eyes off you before whispering, ”I think that’s my soulmate....”

“I’ll be right back!” He said frantically over his shoulder to his friend quickly before running to catch up with you and hopefully find out your name.

Minchan - Fake Dating

“Ughhh tell me again how I got roped into your antics again?” You groaned, crossing your arms over your chest. Minchan fixed his hair in the mirror one last time before turning to you and grinning.

“Because you love me.” He said in a teasing tone. You rolled your eyes, looking down at his outfit. The suit he had to wear for his cousin’s wedding fit him well, except the tie around his neck was loose and crooked.

“No, because you offered me something in return,” You huffed, walking over to him to help fix the tie around his neck, “Don’t forget, you owe me for this.” Minchan hummed, standing still as you undid the tie, smoothing it out a bit before beginning to tie it over again, much more neatly than how Minchan did it originally.

Suddenly, he snaked his hands around your waist, pulling you closer to him. You let out a surprised squeak, furrowing your eyebrows as you looked up at his face that was inches from yours. You hated to admit it, but being this close made your heart flutter intensely.

Before you could say anything, Minchan whispered under his breath just so you could hear, “My mom is watching us right now.”

Sure enough, you could see his not-so sneaky mother peek her head out from around the corner out of your peripheral. The reality of the situation crashed down at you and the flutter in your heart was replaced with a sudden sinking feeling in your stomach. You hated that you were somehow disappointed.

You glanced back at Minchan, who was still inches from your face and holding you tightly. You chuckled softly and shook your head.

“Let me finish your tie, dumbass.” you scoffed, focusing back on the tie in your hands as you tightened it around his neck, shifting it into place, “There you go. Much better.” Instead of letting you go, Minchan just pulled you even closer, a silly smirk on his face.

“let me kiss you right now, it’ll sell the act.” He suggested quietly, wiggling his eyebrows at you. You let out a nervous giggle, but nodded nonetheless. 

He placed a quick peck on your lips before releasing you, and you somehow wished it wasn’t just a quick kiss to convince his family he had a date, but something he actually wanted to do. In that moment, you realized that desire existed and it made you feel suddenly very anxious for the rest of the wedding.

Oh gosh, you were in trouble.

Gyehyeon - Enemies To Lovers

The bottle spun to a stop on the carpet, pointing directly at the guy you were praying it didn’t land on. You look up at his stupid face to see it twist into one of annoyance before looking at you.

“Can I spin again?” You asked Yeonho, who was already trying to get you to stand by pulling you by the arm. You glanced back at Gyehyeon, who stands on his own but does so with his arms crossed and still annoyed expression on his features. You looked back at Yeonho, who was trying to stifle a grin, “I’ll go in there with anyone but him.”

“Too bad, it’s the rules.” He said in a sing-song voice while dragging you towards the closet and pushing you inside. Gyehyeon just scoffs and walks in, hands stuffed in his pockets. 

The door clicks behind you both and you’re shrouded in darkness, not being able to see each other even though you are basically right against each other in the small space. You stood like that in silence for a moment before he groaned.

“Gosh, your breath smells.” He complained, causing you to frown, “Can’t you turn your head to the side? I can feel it on my neck.”

“Okay, you don’t have to be mean,” You spat back, turning your face into some of the coats hanging up in the closet, feeling anger bubble up in your chest from being insulted, “You act like your breath doesn’t smell like beer...”

“Hey, you’re just saying that because your mad. You’re always such a baby...” He grumbled. You laughed spitefully, turning back to face him as you let your annoyance out. You still couldn’t see him, but you could feel his body heat as you stood a few inches away.

“Don’t you ever just shut up? I feel like I always have to listen to your annoying voice.” You said, hands clenching into fists at your sides before sighing from irritation.

Gyehyeon suddenly rushed forward, slamming his hand against the wall near your face, caging you in between him and the wall. You gasped slightly, pressing your back against the wall as he leaned in close. You could feel his breath on your face.

“Want me to shut up?” He muttered in an acidic tone, his lips practically brushing against yours as he spoke, “Why don’t you make me?”

Yeonho - Best Friends To Lovers

“Yeonho, I can’t do this! I wanna get off right now.” You cried out, jiggling the lap bar of the roller coaster you are both on.

It was Yeonho’s birthday and you took him to an amusement park to celebrate. He’d be your best friend for years now, meeting in school and bonding over a shared interest. That quickly grew into doing almost everything together after realizing you were like the same person and enjoying each other’s company a lot.

All day, you’d been having fun; going on rides, playing games and eating plenty of classic amusement park food. However, you’d been avoiding going on the big roller coaster because it made you scared... But Yeonho wanted to go so badly, so you agreed reluctantly.

Now that you were climbing the incline on the roller coaster, hearing the clicking of the track and seeing the ground get farther and farther away, you really wished you hadn’t agreed.

“You can’t get off now, it’s too late, silly.” He chuckled while turning to face you with a grin. You looked at him with terror in your expression and and he seemed to realize how scared you actually were.

“I want off.” You repeated, holding tightly onto the shoulder secure, and scrunching your eyes closed. The ride was getting to the peak and (if you had your eyes open) you’d be able to see the whole park from here.

“(Y/N), look at me,” Yeonho called to you calmly. You opened your eyes and looked at him; he looked beautiful with the setting sun casting an orange glow over his face as he held his hand out for you to hold.

“Hold my hand if it gets scary,” He offered, smiling sweetly at you. You quickly took his hand and interlaced your fingers with his, squeezing his hand tightly, “you’ll be okay, I promise. I’m here.”

You made it to the very peak, stopping for a moment to allow the suspense to build. You took a few short breaths, trying to stop yourself from crying. It was safe to say you were freaking out.

“Hey (Y/N)... I like you. Wanna go out on a date?” Yeonho suddenly asked. You looked at him, confused to see him with a gentle smile and no hint of humor in his expression.

“Seriously?” You asked and he nodded subtly. You felt like your brain was going numb when suddenly the coaster clicked, sending you down the the drop. You were so focused on Yeonho’s confession you barely had time to scream, clutching his hand tightly. Little did you know, that was his plan all along.

“I like you too, I like you too, I like you too!” You chanted, eyes screwed shut while terror filled screams bubbled up from your chest, “Let’s go out... gosh I’m gonna die!”

Yongseung - Arranged Marriage/Royalty Au

The ballroom sparkled as the many party guests danced around and mingled. For what was supposed to be the joyous event of announcing your engagement, you couldn’t care less.

As a young royal, you always knew you’d be married off for the means of diplomacy and not for love. But you also would have at least preferred to meet the man you were supposed to marry before you get engaged.

The Prince you were supposed to marry apparently was from the far north, so the travel time too longer than expected for him to arrive. It could take hours or even the next morning for your future husband-to-be to get here... So you currently stood awkwardly and bored against the wall as you watched the other guests pinning around to the music.

“Beautiful night, isn’t it?” A voice said from beside you. You turn to see an attractive young prince standing next to you. He looked out at the people dancing before turning to you and giving you a half smile and jokingly continuing, “Congratulations on your engagement.”

“Thanks.” You chuckled, shaking your head before looking back into the crowd, “Be sure to tell my future husband that too, if he even arrives tonight...”

“How would you like to dance while you wait for him?” The handsome stranger asked, holding out his hand for you to take, He gave you a sympathetic look, “This ball is pretty boring if you just stand here.”

“I’d love too,” You began with a grin, before letting it fade and sighing, “But I have to save my first dance of the engagement ball for my fiance. It’s tradition.” The stranger hummed, seemingly thinking before smiling to himself and bowing politely.

“I understand, Your highness.” The prince said simply, “But forgive me, I haven’t properly introduced myself.”

He grabbed your hand before placing a soft kiss on the back of it. You raised your eyebrows at the stranger, before his eyes met yours.

“My name is Yongseung, the prince of the Northern Kingdom. I think that makes me the man you’re getting married to in a few months..?” He said politely, making you freeze in place, “I also think that means it’s alright if we go dance now, correct?”

“My apologies, Your highness!” You gasped, bowing furiously as he let out a little chuckle, “Please, let us dance!”

Yongseung pulled you out to the center of the ballroom where he held you firmly by the waist and hand. The music began to pick up and you were soon spinning around the room like the rest of the guests.

“How was the trip?” You asked, face still hot from embarrassment, as you began to mumble, “I can’t believe I didn’t realize who you were...”

“Long trip, but not too bad,” He sighed simply, smirking at you with a teasing tone, “And to be fair, the only reason I could recognize you was because I asked one of the guards where you were. This is our first meeting, after all.”

There was a silence that washed over the two of you, as you danced along to the music. Your hand felt clammy in his, and you refused to look at your fiance in the eyes, as it was still a bit too awkward for you.

“Congratulations on the engagement.” You whispered, causing Yongseung to let out a hearty laugh. You smiled at your successful attempt to lighten the mood, and for the first time since this arrangement was suggested, you thought maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

Kangmin - Boy Next Door/Unrequited Love

You clicked the doorbell of your neighbors house, fingers nervously tapping on the side of the Tupperware container in your hands. Much to your delight, it was Kangmin who opened the door, smile soft and bright like the summer sun.

You’d lived next door to his family ever since you were young. You’d been to their house for play-dates countess times, your family invited them to your house monthly for dinner; Kangmin’s mother even called you her second child.

“My mom made these this morning and thought you’d enjoy them!” You gestured to the container in your hands. They were filled with blueberry lemon muffins, which happened to be Kangmin’s favourite.

“Oh wow!” He exclaimed, taking the container and lifting it to his face to look through the clear plastic. He opened the door a bit wider, “Do you wanna come in and have one with me?”

“Sure.” You answered simply, feeling like your heart was going to beat out of your chest. You’d grown feelings for Kangmin years ago; it was impossible not to! He was sweet and cute and you already spent so much time together with you living next door. 

You followed Kangmin into the kitchen where he placed the container on the table and went to fetch you and him an glass of iced tea. You sat at the table, opening the container and fishing out two muffins for the both of you.

“What’s new?” You asked as he sat down across from you. Kangmin peeled the wrapper off the muffin and set it down on the table gingerly.

“Not much, how about you?” He asked, taking a bite of the muffin and humming in delight, “These are great!”

“I’ll be sure to tell my mom you said so!” You giggled at his cute expression, taking a sip of the iced tea he brought, “And nothing’s really new here either... same old, same old.” Kangmin suddenly shot up in his chair, eyes wide in realization.

“Oh, there actually is something new!” He exclaimed, before chuckling to himself, “How could I almost forget?” You smiled at him, urging him to continue when his phone dinged with a notification. He looked at it and grinned bashfully.

“Perfect timing,” He said before looking back at you. Kangmin’s cheeks were a faint rosy colour and he looked a bit shy, which threw you off. What was it?

“I’m going on a date!” He cheered excitingly. He showed you the notification before going on a tangent about the girl he’d met recently and how they instantly clicked.

And in that moment you felt your heart shatter into a million pieces.

obvious - kv.m.

pairing: Kevin x fem reader (ft. Verivery Minchan)

genre: best friends to lovers!au, angst, fluff.

word count: 13.2K.

summary: Kevin has loved you for so long, having to hear many times how much you’d like to find someone like him. He’s made it obvious, but since you don’t seem to hear the lightning, maybe he would have to say it in a love song.

Your feet made their way straight to the cafeteria. Arm wrapped with your best friend’s as the both of you watched the way how every step you took was in perfect sync, enjoying it and innocently finding it funny, like you did when you two were younger. Chatting about anything and everything, just giggling like the pair of idiots the rest of the campus probably thought you were.

Having your eyes glued to your matching feet, resulted in you bumping into someone. Your eyes immediately shot up a look with shock, placed your free hand to rub your now sore arm and absent-mindedly unlinking your arm from Kevin’s. Your friend kept silent, just staring at the intruder of your little moment, sensing the way your body immediately tensed, eyes wandering between you, and the person in question.

“I’m s-sorry!” You stammered, feeling your breath stuck in your throat the moment you saw the person that had collided with you.

Jet black, fluffy hair that dangled perfectly over his dark eyes. Small nose, plush lips with a very well defined cupid’s bow, and pearl white teeth that showed up as soon as he smiled apologetically, bowing to you.

“No, I’m sorry. I hope I didn’t hurt you, are you okay?” He asked, his deep voice sending butterflies to your stomach right away. You felt your heart throb at his concern, cheeks burning in embarrassment and all the words you could’ve said in either apology or response, suddenly vanishing from your mind as if you had lost the ability to speak. You managed to nod your head somehow, too caught up in his handsome features and your fear of having stupid words promptly falling from your mouth at the slightest try. “Good. I wasn’t looking properly. Again, I’m sorry. I’ll see you around.”

With a subtle smile on his lips and those words, he just walked away. Your head turning around, letting your eyes  shamelessly follow his silhouette until he got lost among the people.

Hong Minchan. A senior you had always had a crush on. Top student, handsome, well-spoken and humble. The person every guy wished to be, and every girl wanted to have a date with... Including you.

He was off limits, too out of your league and you were perfectly aware of it. Still, you just couldn’t help yourself from becoming some sort of statue whenever he was around. He probably knew at that point about it, considering how long your eyes remained on him and his sculpted body, making yourself feel like just another one of his stalkers, the ones that were just waiting for the littlest bit of his attention to make a move on him with some shameless flirting.

Your friend cleared his throat, pulling you out of your thoughts and snapping you back to reality. You turned your head to look at him, as he raised a brow. He rolled his eyes and moved his hand to place it under your chin, gently pushing your jaw upwards and closing your open mouth.

“Close your mouth, you’ll catch a fly.” He just said, starting to walk again, now with his hands tucked in his pockets.

“Oh my god. Was I too obvious?” You asked, rushing to follow him and finally matching his pace again, panicking at the simple idea of making a fool of yourself in front of someone like Minchan.

“Why do you ask?” He looked at you, pulling one of his hands out of his pocket and rubbing his chin with his fingers as if he was deep in thoughts, although it was more than obvious that he was just clearly ready to tease you. “Was it because of the way you couldn’t even blink, or maybe because your brain couldn’t either formulate sentences or at least keeping your mouth closed?”

You smacked his arm and he chuckled, then pouted, rubbing his arm and faking sadness.

“Kevin! Oh god, why did you let me embarrass myself like that?” You whined, tugging on his sleeve in desperation. He clicked his tongue, opening the door for you to walk into the cafeteria, with him following afterwards.

“Ah come on. It was cute. Just make sure to close your mouth next time though, you could’ve drooled and now, that wouldn’t have been cute.” He added, making his way to the table.

You groaned, folding your arms over your chest like a little girl throwing a tantrum, finding the rest of your friends already seated and eating lunch. You sat between Changmin and Chanhee, smiling to them as you greeted each other.

“Why are you grumpy today?” Younghoon, one of your older friends asked from across the table, lips curled up in amusement. Kevin took a sit next to him and shrugged, as if the question had been asked to him instead.

“She’s mad because she bumped into the guy she has a crush on and her brain stopped working.”

Chuckles resounding around you at your flustered state. You only buried your head between your hands, right after you had sent enough daggers towards Kevin with your eyes.

“Ah come on, I’m sure it wasn’t that bad.” Hyunjae spoke then, munching on a piece of bread.

“It was definitely not the way I wanted him to know I exist.” You stated, sighing as you slid your hands down from your face. Chanhee giggled and rubbed your back, sympathetic to your cringe, before he offered you some of his fries. You looked at him and smiled, throwing one into your mouth.

“Okay but now being serious.” Kevin continued. “You were just shocked. Whoever’s gonna like you, will like you even when your brain shuts down.” He stated, resting his chin in he palm of his hand.

“Yeah, now try to fix it, Moon.” You said back. He just grinned and outstretched his hand across the table, grabbing yours and giving it a light squeeze.

“You know I’m just messing with you, dear.” He assured, but you didn’t even react at the sudden pet name. “Don’t think too much about it, alright? You’re great the way you are. Again, I think your reaction was cute.”

You rolled your eyes at him, but smiled anyways. You couldn’t stay mad at Kevin, not when you knew him that well. He was the kind of person who was always joking around and teasing people, even sometimes, clowning himself. Although you were used to his pranks, it seemed like he found your reactions fun enough to be his victim in reiterated occasions. He knew how easily you got pissed and he found it amusing. Aside from that, he was always a true sweetheart, being there for you whenever you needed him to, even if you didn’t want anyone around, he would just refuse to leave you alone if he knew you were struggling with something. That’s what made him stand out from the rest, what made him unique, and what made him your favorite person in the whole world. After all, he had been by your side ever since you two were in kindergarten.

“That’s cheesy, but I must admit that he’s right.” Hyunjae agreed with a nod. You pulled your hand away from Kevin’s grip and rubbed your face, sighing again.

“Whatever... It’s not like I was expecting Hong Minchan to think I’m cute or be interested in me anyways. He’s way out of my league, or anyone’s league, indeed.” You shrugged.

Kevin frowned, but before he could speak, Younghoon stole the words away from him.

“Why would you say that?” He asked, cocking his head in confusion at your self-consciousness. “I don’t see anything wrong with you.”

You let out a humorless laugh.

“He is super handsome, super nice and super talented. I’m just plain, ill-mannered, untidy and scruffy.” You stated, as if you were describing personality traits.

Kevin scoffed, waving his hand to dismiss the words you had said.

“Why are you so hard on yourself?” He asked with a judging look on his face.  “Those are not the adjectives that describe you correctly. You’re just using negative ones for you and positive ones for him, and that’s not how it works.”

“Then, which ones should I use to describe myself?” You asked in return, challenging him.

Kevin didn’t think much, opening his mouth to just let the first things he thought about you slip from his mouth.

“You’re smart, caring, creative, bright.” He started, using his fingers to count one  by one. “You’re also compassionate, determined, easygoing, loyal, passionate, reliable... Oh and you have a really pretty smile, a hair that smells nice, big bright eyes and a cute laugh, and-” His words trailed off with ease, until he realized his friends were trying to stifle laughter at the way he got so carried away and stopped, clearing his throat and wanting the ground to swallow him right then and there. He felt his heart pounding, terrified that he had just exposed the love for you he had worked so hard to bottle up for years that easily. Still, Kevin being Kevin, just laughed it off as if nothing happened.

“Maybe you should date Kevin instead.” Hyunjae joked, chuckling in amusement at his friend’s way of praising you. Kevin tried to play it cool, but was silently panicking about the feeling of his cheeks burning, thinking that the sudden blush on his face would give him away.

You smiled, being the one to cock your brow at him this time.

“As if, Hyunjae. Kevin is my soulmate, we’re literally like siblings... He’s the only one who knows all my deepest secrets. But I get it. I’m your best friend and that’s what makes you see so many good things in me, Kev. Thank you, but we both know that I’m far from being all of that.”

Your words hit him deeply. The way you invalidated his compliments while also throwing him in the friendzone was something he could never stop from hurting him, no matter how much he tried. Still, he always had to pretend like your words didn’t cut like knives, always showing his best smile for you. Mantaining a facade of an implicit, perfect friendship on the surface while underneath, he was hoping that maybe someday you could take him seriously.

“If someone doesn’t like me at the end, you’ll be the one to carry with the consequences.” You added in a warn, pointing your finger at him. He laughed and gave you a nod.

“Don’t worry, even if no one liked you, I always will.”

Later that day, you and Kevin were spending some time in the music classroom. His eyes fixed on the piano keys in front of him as he made magic with his fingertips, the most beautiful melody always filling the room whenever Kevin decided to play an instrument.

You stared at him in awe, resting your chin in the palm of your hand on top of the piano. The hairs on your body standing up at the little performance he was making for you.

It was like walking on clouds. You loved how something so simple he did could take you to another world, where nothing mattered, where nothing hurt. It had always been that way, ever since he you two were children and he learned how to play. You were his number one fan, and he loved playing for you.

“How can you be so talented?” You mumbled, still mesmerized as his eyes flew in your direction, a smirk forming on his lips. “I wish I was as artistic as you are.” You pouted, making him chuckle.

Kevin stood up from his seat, and gestured for you to take his place. You tilted your head in confusion, brows furrowed.

“Come on, show me what you got.”

You held back a laugh, shaking your head.

“Are you crazy? I don’t play the piano.”

Kevin clicked his tongue, walking in your direction and placing his hands on your shoulders to spin you around and take you to the now empty seat.

“Just try.” He said, patting your head as he walked around the piano, now standing in the spot you previously were on.

You rolled your eyes, moving your hands to the keys and starting to play the only melody you knew, twinkle twinkle little star.

Kevin just stood there and watched your every move, finding the way you were so focused on the task incredibly adorable. He couldn’t help but smile, you looked so innocent, so beautiful like you always were. So effortlessly endearing, melting his heart with the smallest actions. He looked at you with adoration, his eyes probably sparkling as his heart hammered against his chest. If it wasn’t for how dense you were, his face would’ve given him away.

You scoffed, folding your arms over your chest in frustration and absent-mindedly pulling him out of his thoughts.

“That’s it. Your lame performance.”

Kevin chuckled.

“That was really lame, indeed.” He said, walking to you and gesturing for you to move aside. “But it was really cute.” He added, sitting right beside you.

You glared at him, pursing your lips in disapproval.

“I’m sorry for not being a musical genius like you, Mr. Moon.” You rolled your eyes.

“Here, I’ll teach you something.”

Kevin grabbed your hands and placed them back on the keys, with his atop of yours for guidance. He started playing softly, holding your hand and dragging your fingers along with his. His hand was warm and his touch as delicate as the inside of a rose. You let him take the lead, glancing up at his focused expression from time to time, not thinking about getting caught staring, until you did.

“You’re supposed to look at the keys, not me.” He said, seeing you stifle a laughter, flicking your forehead with his fingers.

You winced in pain, bringing your hands to the sore area seconds before the two of you bursted into laughter.

“You intimidated me.” You laughed. “It’s so weird seeing your ugly face from up close.”

His mouth went agape in shock, placing his hand on his chest as he pretended to be hurt.

“Ouch? That’s rude.” He stated, shaking his head. “Be thankful that you didn’t have to look at yourself from my perspective, though. You looked like a psychopath who was thinking a hundred ways of slitting my throat.”

You laughed even louder, pushing on his shoulder and throwing your head back in laughter, him joining you right away.

Once again, Kevin’s heart jumped desperately inside his chest. The simple sound of your laugh and the way you still looked like that little kid he grew up with sent a whole zoo to his stomach.

He adored everything about you, and he wanted to be the reason behind that happiness for as long as he lived.

And that’s why he always stared at you when you two were alone, drinking every single one of gestures in. Sometimes it lingered a bit too much, but again, you never seemed to notice.

Sadly, you were still oblivious to the signs. Everyone seemed to notice, everyone but you.

He stood up from his seat, outstretching his hand for you to take, his lips curling up in a soft smile.

“Let’s take you home, yeah? You better be thinking about the movie we’re going to watch tonight.”

You stared at his hand for a second before you smiled and grabbed it. He pulled you up from the seat and offered his arm for you to link yours, which of course, you did.

“I have a few ones in mind.” You said as you two made your way to the door.

“I hope it isn’t another one of Changmin’s recommendations...” He added, leaving the room with you.

Spring break had finally arrived, and you already had plans with your friends. Kevin had picked you up early in the morning for a pool day at the dorms with the rest of the boys, stopping at the grocery store to buy some snacks on the way.

“Should we buy sweets, spicy or salty stuff?” You asked as you wandered around the store with Kevin, eyeing every food item in the way.

Kevin shrugged.

“Whatever you want, they would even eat rocks, especially Haknyeon. Just pick things you like or something.” He said, waving his hand to dismiss your doubts. “I’ll go to the other end of the store for some alcohol and other sweet beverages, alright?”

You nodded at him with a quick glance, already focused on your task. He smiled and walked away from you, disappearing from your sight.

“Hmmm. I’ll go with the chips first.” You hummed, examining the items on the shelves. “Oh! Kkokkalcorn! Definitely buying this.” You smiled to yourself, grabbing two bags and placing them on the shopping cart. You looked at all the options and felt as excited as a child in a toy store. “ Tteokbokki Chips, and Honey Butter Chips too!” You exclaimed with the biggest grin, grabbing the bags and again, throwing them into the cart. You stared down at what you already got, cocking your mouth and sighing. “I guess that’s it for the chips.” You mumbled, walking around the cart and placing your hands on the handle, ready to push and start walking until your inner voice made you rethink your decision. “Hmm.. Maybe just one more...” You whispered, moving to grab one last bag. “Goguma Kkang” You added, placing it on the cart and smiling contently, moving to the next aisle.

You made your way across the aisle filled with a ton of options for sweets. Having a few in mind already, you went straight to them, not even thinking before you just picked some and threw them with the rest of the items. “Orion Choco Pie, Choco Biscuits.” Fully focused, you spotted the last item on your list, that unfortunately for you, was placed high on the shelf. “Ah, fucking Peperos!” You grunted, standing on your tiptoes as you tried your best to reach the little box in the exact moment another hand brushed with yours accidentally. You pulled your hand away and went back to stand on your feet as your head turned right.

“Sorry” You muttered, eyes flying open as soon as you saw the person in question. The tall masculine figure stood right there beside you, uncomfortably close as he seemed to be thinking about having the same snack as you.

A smile formed on his lips, a light chuckle leaving his mouth as he lowered his arm.

“Hey, it’s you again.” He smiled. “Sorry, I didn’t notice you were trying to reach the same thing.” He continued, outstretching his hand to grab one of the boxes. “Do you want the original, almond or the white cookie flavored ones?”

Words seemed to be stuck in the tip of your tongue along with your lack of breathing. Your eyes couldn’t help but fix on his handsome face, dressed so casually with a plain black tee, a red plaid shirt and a pair of black ripped jeans with sneakers. Still he managed to look like someone who had been sent straight from the heavens. His black locks were naturally wavy, still dangling over his eyes that remained on you. Yours wandered from his face to his hand lifted in the air, detailing every single bracelet or ring that adorned his wrist and fingers before you looked back at his face, now cocked to the side as he waited for your answer.

As soon as you noticed the confusion on his face and the way your eyes had been on him for too long, you blinked a few times and swallowed, your throat dry as you mentally slapped yourself for having your mouth agape in front of him.

Thankfully Kevin wasn’t around to see you making a fool of yourself all over again.

“Oh, u-um, one of each, p-please.” You finally spoke way lower than you intended, and in addition to that, stuttering. Great job.

Minchan nodded with a smile, grabbing the three boxes with a one of his large hands, then handing them over to you as he looked down due to the height difference.

Your shaky hands clasped around the cardboard boxes, but nervously dropping them on the floor.

Eyes glued to the mess you made, your cheeks flushed in pink as you automatically squatted down to pick the boxes up, not noticing that Minchan, again, seemed to be thinking the same thing, moving to pick them up as well at the same time, resulting on a collision of your heads together.

You reeled backwards to the floor, landing on your butt as if you couldn’t be more embarrassing. Grimacing in pain, you rubbed your forehead at the stinging pain. Minchan rubbed his as well, scrunching his face as a soft chuckle emanated from his lips.

He stood up, outstretching his hand for you to help you up. You hesitated, but took it anyways before he pulled you off the floor. Your cheeks burned, you wanted the ground to swallow you, but he seemed to always keep his cool.

“Are you okay?” He asked then, releasing the grip on your hand and still smiling before he leaned down to collect the boxes from the floor and place them himself inside your cart.

“I am, I’m so sorry.” You muttered, bowing to him. “Thank you for your help.”

“What is your name?” He suddenly asked, and you shot him a look of shock. Never in your wildest dreams you thought Hong Minchan would want to know your name.

Maybe he just wanted to know it so he could have a good laugh with his friends.

“I... I’m y/n.” You stuttered again, clenching your jaw for not being able to act normally around him. You were sure that he was thinking that you were a weirdo at that point.

“I’m Minchan.” He said, his voice deep but sweet as honey as he offered his hand for you again.

That made three times in a row that day when you were able to touch his hands.

His fingers clasped around yours, and you were hoping he didn’t notice the sweat in your palms as he gently shook it.

“I know.” Minchan tilted his head at your comment, releasing your hand. You almost slapped your forehead. Fuck. “I-I m-mean, I’ve heard about you at school.”

He then nodded, satisfied with your answer.

“Well y/n... It seems like we keep bumping into each other.” He said, tucking his hand in his pocket and pulling his phone out. “I better ask for your number, it’d be such a shame if this was fate and we didn’t know.”

Your heart raced, so fast that you feared he would be able to hear it. You couldn’t help but grin. It felt like a dream, one of the best looking guys at school was asking for your number even after you had embarrassed yourself like a clown in front of him.

Kevin carried the boxes filled with beverages and beer, looking for you at the aisle where he had left you. When he didn’t find you there, he instantly knew where to find you, so he went there, to the aisle of sweets.

And that’s when he saw you, smiling widely, cheeks tinted in red and sparkly eyes. With him, again.

His smile vanished from his face and his heart sank at the sight of you talking happily with Minchan and handing him his phone back. He cursed under his breath, letting out a frustrated sigh as the overwhelming need of dropping everything and just run away consumed him, but he knew he couldn’t. He had no reasons to, at least not in your eyes.

It was ridiculous. You weren’t at school and he still seemed to always appear in the worst moments. If Kevin ever took a step, Minchan had already taken two ahead. He hated how frustrating it was, how a knot formed in his throat. He didn’t ask to feel that way, why was life adding salt to the wound?

He kept approaching you, and thankfully Minchan left with a wave of his hand before he reached you and the cart. Not saying anything, he placed the drinks inside, grabbing the handle.

“Ready?” He asked you, not even daring to mention what had obviously happened.

You were grinning, and he knew you well enough to see how badly you wanted to squeal. You nodded excitedly, linking your arm with his. He felt like shit, but you looked so cute, he couldn’t help the corners of his mouth lifting up in a subtle smile.

“You won’t believe what just happened, Kev. The universe must be against me, but also in my favor.”

Kevin knew what it was all about, but he had no option, he had to keep bottling up his feelings and just let you ramble while he paid for the snacks.

“What happened? Tell me.” He said, pulling the items out of the cart and handing them to the cashier, eyes fixated on his task, bracing himself to hear you being overly excited for some other guy who wasn’t him.

“So... I was picking the sweet snacks, and the stupid peperos were too high for me...”

Kevin nodded, glancing at you every now and then to let you know he was being attentive. His stomach churned, your eyes glowed when you talked about Minchan, how he wished you looked like that while talking about him.

“And then our heads literally collided... I felt so fucking dumb but he was so sweet and just laughed.”

How’s that you were still oblivious? Why couldn’t you see in front of your nose? Kevin was always there for you, always treated you like a princess, but even when he turned his charms up for you, you didn’t even notice.

But this guy barely talked to you a couple of times and you wouldn’t stop talking about how perfect he was.

“It was like destiny or something like that, Kev. I swear. It’s like all the stars and planets finally aligned. The fact that he asked for my number when I was so fucking dumb in front of him makes it clear. I never thought it’d happen, but I think he might like me!” You continued excitedly, jumping on the balls of your feet.

Kevin grabbed the plastic bags and handed the lightest one to you. He didn’t speak at all, he just smiled sweetly at you.

You found it weird, he was never that quiet... But you were too excited to give it a second thought.

“I left for like five minutes and now you have your whole k-drama happening.” He half-joked as he walked to the taxi that was waiting for the both of you. You pouted, lifting your hand and punching him in the arm.

“If you say it that way... It sounds like I’m being a delulu.”

He opened the sliding door and placed the bags in the back, helping you jump and following behind you before he closed the door.

“You’re not. I’m happy for you.” He said, a sad smile on his face that you didn’t quite notice back then.

However, his quietness was worrying you a while later.

“Are you okay? You’re too quiet.” You said, placing a hand on his thigh. He almost shuddered at your sudden touch, eyes darting in your direction as a light smile formed on his lips, nodding.

“Yes, I’m okay. It’s just a headache.”

You pouted.

“Do you want some painkillers or something? Can I be of help?”

He quickly shook his head, faking a laugh.

“Don’t overreact, I’m okay.” He assured, patting your head in reassurance.

You had no option but take him at his word.

It seemed like Kevin went back to his normal self as soon as the two of you arrived at the dorms. You were greeted by all the boys who didn’t hesitate to snatch all the snacks from your hands as soon as you walked through the door.

It was evening already, and half of them were inside the pool playing some volleyball.

“y/n, why haven’t you gotten inside yet? You’ve been glued to the table eating the snacks since we arrived!” Eric yelled from the pool, interrupting your chattering with Chanhee and Younghoon in the process.

You rolled your eyes, munching on a chip before you stood up, shaking the crumples off your hands.

“Can’t a girl eat trash in piece?” You asked, placing your hands on your hips. Some of the boys chuckling at your reaction.

“Just get in! The water is nice!”

You sighed, stripping yourself from your clothes and leaving yourself in your bathing suit. The boys started to whistle teasingly and your brows furrowed, cheeks tinted in a deep shade of red.

“You perverts!” You whined, hugging yourself in a desperate try to cover up.

You knew your friends were just messing with you, they liked to make everyone as uncomfortable as possible, and you hated to get shy by just a dumb teasing.

However, there was someone who had his eyes glued to you and your half-exposed body. Someone who was losing track of time and space as the only thing he was able to hear was his heart racing and pulse hammering in his ears.

He had seen you that way before, a thousand times even... But every time he did, he found himself trapped in the same situation. Utterly and absolutely spellbound by your beauty. The way the wind blew your hair so softly, and the way your soft skin reflected ever so perfectly the rays of sun against it.

You had a beautiful body, but to him, it was much more than that.

You were perfect, and you had no idea about it yet.

Jacob splashed water at him, pulling him out of his trance. He turned around to look at him, lips parted in fake shock.

“Come back to earth” Jacob smiled.

Kevin frowned and bit his lip, attacking him back with water.

While he was busy water-fighting with his friend, someone decided to trick you.

“Would you give me a piece of chocolate?” Haknyeon asked innocently, puppy-eyed so you wouldn’t say no.

You sighed, returning to the table and grabbing the sweet before you swatted down to give it to him.

What you weren’t expecting, was that he would take it and also pull you into the water.

Laughter echoed all over the place, as you made it to the surface. Your long hair was stuck in your face as you tried to catch your breat. You barely pushed it away from your eyes to rub them, and then glare at the guilty boy who laughed in front of you.

“Ju Haknyeon, you’re fucking regretting this!” You shouted, swimming and chasing him all around the pool.

But you got tired quickly, he was in a better shape than you.

That made you groan, before someone placed their hands on your shoulders to spin you around, eyes meeting with yours.

“You’ve never been a good swimmer.” He said, stifling a laugh at your grumpy state. “Here.” He said as he carefully moved his hand and brushed your hair away from your face with his fingers, the gesture made your expression soften almost immediately. He was always the sweetest when it came to you.

You smiled.

“I know.” You responded, moving your hands to imitate his actions and push his hair back sweetly. “Here.” You repeated.

Kevin was taken aback by it, his expression filled with confusion before he finally managed to smile subtly. He stared into your eyes, adoring the way the droplets of water slid down your soft skin like dew on flowers.

Sometimes it was really hard for him to hold back and keep that facade. Especially when you were naturally mesmerizing. Your pink lips, the ones he always wondered how would feel in a kiss. Your rosy cheeks and round eyes. Your small nose, the smell of shampoo in your hair, the words you spoke and every single inch of you or everything about you made his world spin.

You were having a moment, an intimate one, at least for him. The whole world around him, the laughter and voices of his friends seemed to evaporate just by having you near, getting lost in your eyes and your beauty.

Until you splashed him with water, bringing him back to earth. He laughed and splashed you back playfully, before he reached out and wrapped his arms around your waist.

“How dare you defy me!” He groaned, lifting you up as you moved you kicked your legs frantically.

“What are you doing, let me go!” You laughed, moments before he threw you to the water on the other side of the pool.

That’s how all of you spent the day, forgetting about responsibilities, unrequited feelings and other people outside the group. You enjoyed it way too much, and when the sun finally settled, you were all exhausted and starving.

You had ordered pizza. The whole group sitting in a circle on the carpeted floor of the living room. You were helping Jacob with the drinks in the kitchen, telling him all about your encounter with Minchan.

“Don’t you think it’s like fate?” You asked, filling the plastic cups with ice cubes.

He chuckled, mixing drinks.

“It surely was an unexpected event.” He responded. “You still don’t know anything about him, though. Be careful, your illusions could disappear as soon as you get to know him.” He shrugged.

You cocked your mouth deep in thought. He had a point.

“That’s true, I guess? But what’s the point on being negative?”

Jacob shook his head, a gentle smile on his lips.

“It’s not negativity at all, I call it being cautious. You know what they say, crushes are meant to be just that, all the magic is long gone once you get what you wanted.” He explained, glancing at you. “You need someone you know well, someone you can be sure will love you, respect you, and do anything for you.”

You sighed, lips curling into a light smirk.

“Like Kevin?” You joked.

Jacob raised a brow, eyes flying in your direction before he chuckled and placed his pointer finger on the tip of your nose.

“Hey, why not?” He smiled, turning around to grab some straws from the counter.

You laughed.

“I would like someone just like him. I mean, someone who treats me like he does. I’d be lucky.”

Kevin accidentally heard your confession while he made his way to the kitchen, stopping behind the wall so he could listen more.

His heart swelled up, and he was starting to get his hopes up. You wanted someone just like him, you were finally appreciating what he did to you. A smile formed on his face as he bit his lip, trying not to make a sound and get caught spying your conversation.

“I hope Minchan does.” You added then, making his heart sink once again.

He felt his chest going heavy in a matter of seconds, and his smile disappeared as a sigh left his lips. He shook his head and went back to the living room, not daring to face you after feeling rejected, again.

“I can’t believe she hasn’t noticed.” Jacob admitted, sitting cross-legged next to Kevin in the balcony. The wind was chilly, but the moonlight gifted a warm feeling of peace.

Jacob had taken his friend outside to have a chat about the whole thing, taking advantage of the fact that no one understood what they said besides Eric, and that you were taking a shower upstairs, getting ready to sleep soon. The other members were in their respective rooms as well, except for Changmin and Sunwoo who were watching videos together.

Kevin sighed.

“She’s so dense. At this point I’m surprised as well. I thought I had been obvious.” He shrugged.

“Then what are you waiting to confess?”

Kevin shot him a look, processing his question.

“I don’t know...” He mumbled, pressing his knees against his chest.

Jacob tsked.

“It’s not that hard... Just tell her you love her already.”

“I don’t have the guts to say it... I’m not really good with words.” He confessed, scratching the back of his neck.

“She told me about this guy, what was his name again?”

“Ah... Minchan.” Kevin responded, rolling his eyes.

“Yeah, that one. Are you just gonna sit and watch him steal her away?”

“Bro... I don’t think I even have any chances. She has friend zoned me like a hundred times already. And she’s always drooling over him it’s annoying as heck.”

Jacob sighed, grazing his chin with his fingers.

“Aw come on, you’re not giving yourself enough credit. Things can change you know? Friends can easily become more, and It’s not like she has brother-zoned you. Now that would be bad.”

Kevin laughed nervously.

“Actually, it’s funny that you mention it...”

Jacob looked at his friend in disbelief, gently slapping his own forehead afterwards.

“Oh man...”

“See my struggle?” Kevin whined, running his hands through his hair in frustration, throwing his head back against the glass door.

The two of them kept silent for a moment, both probably lost in their own minds and considering different scenarios. The night breeze blew their soft locks, sending some sense of melancholy. Jacob was worried for the sake of his friend, and Kevin was starting to think about just giving up on his feelings.

“I still think you should do it.” Jacob insisted then, head craning towards Kevin, who just stared attentively with brows furrowed.

“You think so?”

“Yeah... There are two possible scenarios... She doesn’t reciprocate your feelings but you lift a weight off your shoulders, or she realizes she belongs with you instead.”

“You forgot another possible scenario, though...” Kevin stared.

“Which one?”

“I never say anything so she can be happy with someone else and I don’t risk ruining our friendship.”

Jacob shook his head.

“Listen... If you’re scared of losing the bond you two have, let me tell you, it’s gonna change no matter what.”

“How come?”

“No matter if she doesn’t reciprocate your feelings or if you keep them to yourself. It’s a lose-lose situation. If she doesn’t reciprocate, it’s going to be awkward between the both of you... If you keep them bottled up, seeing her with someone else and not having time to spend with you or give you all of her attention will result in the two of you drifting apart anyways. But if she gives you a chance, it’s gonna change for the better.”

Kevin ran his hands on his face.

“What am I supposed to do?”

Jacob gave him a sympathetic smile.

“You’ll never know until you try.”

“Where are you taking me?” You asked, tone filled with confusion as Kevin dragged you with him to somewhere you didn’t know, grabbing your hand.

“Nowhere in particular.” He said, looking ahead. “We’ll go wherever the wind takes us.”

You stopped in your tracks, forcing him to stop moving. He turned his head to look at you with knitted brows, with you arching one at him.

“I thought you had something planned, dumbass.”

Kevin rolled his eyes.

“Can’t I just have a nice day hanging out with my favorite person?”

You narrowed your eyes at him.

“I guess? But you seemed so insistent I thought you knew where you would take us.” You shrugged.

Kevin released the grip on your hand, wrapping his arm around your shoulders instead, starting to walk again.

“Because you’re lazy and if I hadn’t you’d be still sleeping.” He muttered. You smacked his chest. “Ouch, what was that for?”

“For making me leave my bed.”

Truth was that Kevin never needed a reason in particular for wanting to spend the day with you, but that day, precisely, he had asked you out to see if he could gather the courage to confess to you at the end of the day.

Unlikely, but he still wanted to try.

So he treated you lunch, took you to the arcade and then you found yourselves playing with puppies at a dog cafe. You were having a great moment with him, but that was so common for you that you never gave it a second thought. You always felt that comfortable with him, you always had fun whenever he was around. He was the one who could always understand, the one who shared the same lame interests. That’s why you never fought, that’s why you were inseparable. He was your soulmate, after all. Life had brought you together for a reason, and you would never question it.

But you were still too dense. Too oblivious. You never noticed the way he stared when you were alone, or why he was always where you were. You never even questioned why in those night calls he would find any excuse to just keep you on the phone. You would think he was bored, when in reality, he just couldn’t get enough of the sound of your voice.

You wandered around the city, sipping on your iced coffee before you found a store that seemed quite interesting. It was a fantasy store, and your nerdy side couldn’t help but be drawn there.

“Oh, look. I want to see more!” You said, grabbing Kevin’s wrist when he opened his mouth to complain, dragging him inside.

Your eyes flew open, mesmerized by everything that was placed inside. Medieval and fantasy items like jewelry, swords, books, paintings, clothing, games and a lot of things to decorate your room.

You felt in another world, and every little thing you saw made you excited as Kevin just followed behind you.

Your eyes then landed on the jewelry, a particular necklace capturing your attention.

It was a Gothic inspired necklace that combined a mystical crescent moon with a beautiful glowing heart.

You stared intensely, enamoured with the sight the moment when an old man appeared behind the counter.

“With its beautiful luminescent stone inside an intricate hollow heart dangling from the pendant, this necklace is unique, making it the perfect gift for a special person.” He spoke, almost making you flinch. Your eyes locked with his crinkled ones, as his moustached smile greeted you. “Even if you don’t believe in magic, it is magnifiscent.”

Kevin approached and stood right beside you, listening carefully at the old man’s words as he examined the object that had stolen your attention.

“It is so beautiful.” You mumbled with a smile, hiding it behind your fingers. It came in several colors. “Aw, and it’s a Moon.” You teased your friend, poking his cheek, that right away felt like burning in blush. Gladly, you didn’t notice.

“You can almost feel the magic power it possesses as long as you believe in it.” The man said, locking eyes with kevin and raising his brows.

“It’s true.” You giggled, and Kevin just looked at you. You were so cute and innocent sometimes.

“However, you must use it wisely, it may grant wishes, give you strength, warn you of dangers or be a talisman, depending on your character.“ He addressed.

You grinned.

“I wish I could buy it, but I can’t right now. Maybe another time when I get paid at my part time job.” You pouted, feeling your phone buzzing in your pocket. “Excuse me for a minute.” You said with your pointer finger, walking towards the exit to pick an incoming call from your mom.

The old man and Kevin stared at each other, the latter smiling awkwardly at the man as he kept fidgeting his fingers, switching from him to the door to watch if you were coming back, until he sighed.

He leaned forward to whisper in the man’s ear.

“How much is it?”

“I’m sorry for having to leave earlier than planned... My mom needs me to help her out with some stuff.” You apologized, standing in front of your door. The sun was finally setting, welcoming the moon and stars in its place. Kevin smiled, hands tucked in his pockets and his heart pounding wildly.

It was hard to keep his cool, especially when he could already feel the words he desperately needed to say stuck on the tip of his tongue.

His hands were sweaty, shaking behind the comfort of his jeans. Was he ready to finally confess?

“Don’t worry about it. Just tell her I said hi.” He spoke, surprised that he didn’t stutter at all despite of his mind going wild.

You nodded with a smile, outstretching your hand and gently ruffling his hair.

“Of course.” You responded. “Thanks for today, Kev. I had a blast, as always.”

Kevin grinned, his stomach fluttering by knowing you had enjoyed the day just wiith him.

“Did you really like it?” He asked then, sliding his hand out of his pocket and scratching the back of his neck nervously.

You smiled, but frowned in confusion at his uncommon behavior. It wasn’t like you never enjoyed hanging out with him anyways, he should expect the same words coming from your mouth whenever you two went out.

“Of course, silly.” You teased. “Why would you even doubt it? Weirdo.” You chuckled.

He chuckled as well, but nervously.

“Ah, don’t mind me.” He said, waving his hand and dismissing his own words. “I just wanted to say something...”

You cocked your head.

“What is it?”

The right words ran through his head, like he had been preparing the speech in his mind.

However, his mouth opened to say something, but nothing came out. The silent made the atmosphere awkward, nothing like the way it usually was between the both of you, and Kevin noticed how you were reacting to that. So he just let out the first words that slipped from his tongue.

“I-I...I hope we can hang out again but for more time!”

He tensed, internally panicking. He feared that you would know what he wanted but in the wrong way.

But of course, you didn’t notice. You just laughed and gently pushed his shoulder.

“Of course, Kev.” You smiled, pinching his cheek. “I’m going inside, please get home safely!”

You waved goodbye at him and he waved back before you entered.

Kevin sighed, running his fingers through his haiir.

He had missed his opportunity once again. Every time he asked you out, you never moved past friendly, and that day, was just another one to add to the endless list.

“Heck. I’m such a coward.” He mumbled to himself, kicking the little rocks that were dispersed on the way back home.

He would confess, he had to and he knew that.

That’s why as soon as he arrived home and got a shower, he decided to call you.

“You miss me already?” You joked when you picked up the call, hearing his throaty chuckle at the other side of the line.

“You wish.” He lied. “I just wanted to ask you something real quick.”

“Okay, what is it?”

He took a deep breath and exhaled.

“Are you free tomorrow?”

“Again?”

“Yeah. I need to talk to you about something.”

You frowned, pacing back and forth around your room.

“Is everything okay?”

You were starting to feel worried. He wasn’t acting like himself at all.

“Yeah... I just wanted to share something with you.”

“Okay, where do we meet?”

Kevin couldn’t help the smile that instantly formed on his lips, excitement and nervousness filling up his whole body.

“You know that bench at the park where we used to stargaze?”

You smiled at the memory.

“Yes.”

“Find me there at six, before the sun sets.”

“Do you feel like stargazing? Are you feeling nostalgic so suddenly or something?” You giggled.

“Ah, stop asking questions. It’s just a simple invitation from your best friend.” He responded. “But please go, it’s really important for me, alright?”

“You’re making me curious now. You’re acting all mysterious.”

Kevin laughed.

“It’s nothing bad, I promise.”

“Alright. I’ll meet you there.”

“Promise?”

“Promise.”

“Alright. Goodnight, dumbo.”

“Night, asshole.”

Kevin ended the call and plopped on his back against his bed, throwing his phone to the side and letting out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. His cheeks were flushing and his heart was beating wildly.

He had decided, he would confess to you... Or at least, he would try. That time, for real, and if it didn’t go well, he would definitely give up on his feelings.

On the other hand, you didn’t suspect anything in particular. You trusted Kevin enough to go wherever he asked you to without a second guessing. He was your best friend, so you knew that if he wanted to share something with you, you would probably love it.

You had been helping out your mom with the chores and organizing some things in your house the whole morning until lunch time arrived. You shared a great meal with your parents, standing up as soon as you finished and starting to wash the dishes.

“Dear, can you go the store to buy some things for me? I’ve made a list with what I need.” Your mother said, gently caressing your hair. “Don’t worry about this, I’ll take care of it.”

You turned your head to look at her, smiling and nodding.

“Yes mom, sure.” You said, grabbing a towel and drying your hands before you placed it back on the counter.

She tucked a hand in the pocket of her kitchen apron, handing you a little piece of paper and her credit card.

“Here.” She said. “Don’t buy more than necessar, huh?”

You rolled your eyes, nodding.

“I won’t, mom.”

She smiled and gently patted your cheek lovingly.

“Be careful.”

“I’ll be back soon!”  You responded, walking to the door and grabbing your coat from the floor coat rack, also putting on your shoes.

You had almost everything you needed, ready to go to the cashier and pay the moment you heard a very familiar voice, one that was enough to send sparks down your body.

“I guess you live nearby.” He said. Your heartbeats echoed in your ears and your cheeks burned, turning your head to look at him, a gentle smile on his pretty lips. “It’s good to see you again, y/n. This isn’t coincidence.”

You smiled widely, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear while messily holding the shopping basket. He always managed to look perfect, his hair looking silky and his clothes perfectly ironed. The smell of his cologne just added attractiveness to his already noticeable beauty.

“Minchan!” You greeted. “Glad to see you, too.”

He was quick to make conversation, and you stayed a little longer as you kept him company while he picked the things he needed, that way both of you paid at the same time.

He exited the store with you, telling you about his upcoming graduation and his plans for the future. Turns out he liked to sing, and he was even considering auditioning for some agency. You felt admiration, already knowing his many talents and now his disposition to be someone big in the future. He was very humble, speaking to you like he had known you all his life.

You told him a bit about you, the things you liked and how you were scared about the future, being that the reason why you had decided to live one day at a time, and the fact that he never judged you made you feel more comfortable around him. You even told him about Kevin, as they seemed to have a lot of things in common, another reason for you to get along.

“I would like to talk a bit more.” He confessed, making your stomach flip around. “Let me treat you a coffee.”

You smiled, wanting to say yes before he even finished the sentence. However, you were carrying plastic bags that made your fingers hurt, remembering that you had to go back home soon.

“I’d love to! But... I really have to take this home... I can’t go around with five plastic bags in my hands.” You chuckled.

Minchan smiled.

“I’ll tell you what.” He said, tucking his hand in his pocket and pulling out his car keys. “Let’s place your bags in my car while grab a coffee, right there across the street.” He continued, pointing his finger to a small coffee shop that you knew very well. “When we’re done, we’ll come back and pick your things up.”

You thought about his proposal for a second, being way too tempting for you to say no. It was a good plan, and how could you say no to your crush anyways?

You smiled shyly as he stared at you expectantly.

“Alright.” You said. “Let’s go.”

Minchan smiled, gesturing for you to walk ahead of him. He soon unlocked his car and you placed the bags in the trunk, leaving right after to grab that coffee across the street.

Truth was that you didn’t really care about the coffee, you just couldn’t believe someone like him wanted to spend more time with you and actually get to know you better. After all, you had exchanged numbers but never really texted each other. Hopefully, that would change after that day.

You found yourself having endless things to talk about with Minchan. He was really easygoing and open minded, so you never got bored even for a second. You two laughed, and it was like you had clicked really fast. Losing track of time as you both shared anecdotes from your respective lives.

A loud thunder made you flinch, pulling you out of the conversation you were having. Your eyes flew open to look behind Minchan, grey clouds invading the previously clear blue one. He motioned your actions and turned his head, his brows knitting together.

“Looks like a storm is coming.”

“Yeah. I think we should get going.” You agreed, looking at the watch on your wrist. You shot him a look of shock. “We’ve been here for three hours!” You laughed.

His eyes widened in shock as well, looking at the time on his own watch.

“Wow, we really did lose track of time.” He let out a throaty chuckle that made your skin stand on end. “It’s past six already.”

“We better hurry. It won’t be good if we’re still out when it’s dark and raining.” You smiled, pulling out the credit card to pay before he pushed it back to you, shaking his head.

“My treat, remember?”

You smiled, nodding shyly.

Minchan paid for the coffees and you quickly went back to his car to grab your stuff. Seeing that rain had started to fall down, Minchan offered to take you home in his car, and you accepted, not really wanting to get drenched.

“Thanks for this again, Minchan.” You said, giving him one last smile that he quickly returned.

“No, thank you for accepting my invitation.” He replied. “I’ll see you soon.”

You nodded, smiling. Opening the door from the passenger’s seat, you jumped out of the car and grabbed the plastic bags from the trunk. Minchan waved at you, and you did the same before you finally entered the house.

“Jesus Christ y/n. Where have you been? Why did you take so long?” Your mother said as soon as you walked into the kitchen, placing the bags on the dining table.

Your cheeks were still tinted in a crimson color, smiling at her.

“I bumped into a friend and he invited me to grab a coffee. I’m sorry if I made you worried, mom.”

She muttered something you didn’t quite pinpoint, too deep into your thoughts and excitement as you danced your way upstairs.

You kept giggling like an idiot. You still couldn’t believe you had had some kind of date with Minchan, and you just needed to tell someone about it.

So you grabbed your phone and dialed Kevin’s number.

But he didn’t pick up.

You just couldn’t wait anymore, so you shyly asked your dad to take you to the boys dorms, telling him that they had invited you to watch movies again.

And that’s how you arrived at the dorms even when the sky was falling.

You knocked on the door cheerfully, moments before you were greeted with Eric.

“Hello!”

He looked surprised to see you, but smiled anyways.

“Hey, y/n. Good to see you.” He said, moving aside to let you in.

“Today it’s a great day and no rain is going to change that, my dear Eric.” You chirped, taking off your shoes and walking to the living room where some of the guys were playing video games. “Hi guys.” You waved.

“Y/n? What are you doing here?” Haknyeon asked in confusion.

“I just really need to talk with Kevin. Where is he? Is he in his room?” You said, not waiting for an answer before you dragged your feet in that direction.

“Wait... Weren’t you supposed to be together today?” Jacob suddenly said, coming out of the kitchen.

“Right? That’s why I asked.” Haknyeon shrugged.

And that’s when it hit you.

Your eyes shot open.

“Oh my god!” You whined, hiding your face behind your hands. “Fuck I totally forgot it!”

“That’s not good.” Eric muttered from behind you.

You panicked.

“What time is it?”

“It’s past eight.” Eric said, and your stomach sunk.

“Fuck! I’m two hours late and it’s pouring rain!” You said desperately. “I even called him and he didn’t pick up.”

“Well he surely isn’t here.”

You felt tears burning in your eyes just by the thought of you breaking a promise... One you had made with Kevin, who never ever had broken one when it came to you.

“Sangyeon, please let me borrow your car!”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea, y/n.” He said with a frown.

“Please Sangyeon! We’re in the middle of a storm, it’s dark and Kevin is out there waiting for a stupid woman who just forgot about their promise.” You pleaded. “I need to find him and apologize. He must be hating me.”

Sangyeon kept silent for a second, noticing the worried expressions of his friends around him before he sighed.

“Alright. The key is in the counter.” He said and you immediately turned around, rushing to the door. “Please drive safely!”

You voiced a “Thank you”. They probably didn’t hear you, but that didn’t matter.

Until Jacob ran after you and gabbed your shoulder, stopping you.

“Hey, take this.” He said, handing you an umbrella.

You smiled sadly at him.

“Thank you, Jacob.”

He nodded, and you ran out of the building to the parking lot.

You climbed on the car after you successfully unlocked it, starting the engine and cursing at yourself as you made your way to the park.

Gladly, it was only a few blocks away, so it was about a couple of minutes before you had arrived.

You jumped out of the car, messily opening the umbrella and making your way to where the two of you were supposed to meet.

The place was empty as the rain kept falling wildly, thunders echoing all over the place and making your stomach churn.

You didn’t think you would actually find him, but you did.

“Kevin!”

There he was. Completely soaked, looking ahead as water droplets ran down his skin and hair.

He turned his head to look at you, but didn’t stand up. He didn’t even look happy to see you. The sight broke your heart.

“What are you doing?!” You raised your voice, walking towards him and grabbing his hand, trying to pull him to stand on his feet. “You’re soaked! Are you crazy? You’re going to get sick!”

Kevin’s lips curled up in a soft, bitter smile. A humorless breathy chuckle escaping from his lips.

“So you decided to come...” He muttered, almost in a whisper. Your brows knitted together.

“Kevin... I’m so sorry, I forgot.”

He looked at you once again, but now his expression was filled with hurt.

“You forgot, I see.” He mumbled.

“I know I’m a terrible friend and I’m really sorry!” You repeated. “I went out to buy some things my mom needed and I bumped into Minchan... He invited me to grab a coffee and we lost track of time, I’m sorry okay? I’ll make it up to you. But please let’s go home.”

That was it.

You had not only forgotten about your promise.

But it was also because of Minchan.

“Minchan.” He smiled, standing up.

You thought he was going to join you under the umbrella, but he turned on his heels to walk in the opposite direction.

“Kevin!” You called, running after him and grabbing his hand to stop him.

He was cold. Freezing at the touch, just like the way he looked at you when he turned his head.

“I’ll take the bus.” He said, pulling his hand away from you.

“No! Why would you? I borrowed Sangyeon’s car. Let’s go home, Kev. Let’s talk this out.”

Kevin finally tuned around, his face stone cold. He didn’t even care about being completely drenched in front of you, with the cold wind and the dim moonlight as a witness.

“I said I’m going to take a bus. I’m not going with you so please don’t insist.”

“I know you’re mad Kevin but please don’t act like a child! It’s pouring rain and it’s getting late. I don’t want you to get sick. I’ll take you home. Don’t be so stubborn and come with me so we can talk about the thing you wanted to share with me.” You insisted, outstretching your hand for him to take, but he didn’t move an inch.

“The problem is, y/n, that I have nothing to talk with you.” He spoke. “I decided to give it a try, but now that I see things clear, I know my place.”

You tilted your head.

“What?”

“All this time...” He started, stepping closer to you. “I’ve had this thing eating me alive. I’ve never been good with words, but I’ve always made it obvious. So obvious... You’re the one who still remains oblivious.”

“Kev... W-what are you talking about?” You stammered, feeling intimidated by his attitude.

But then he wrapped his arms around you, hugging you tightly. He placed his hand behind your head, gently caressing you. You froze on the spot, not even caring about the way he was soaking you as well.

“Everything was good for so long, but then something happened inside me.” He spoke against your ear. His voice was filled with emotions and sent shivers down your spine. “Now I’m reading into everything...” He continued, tightening the hug. “But there’s no sign you hear the lightning.”

You were confused. You didn’t know what he meant, but you didn’t seem to find the courage to question him or his words. You hugged him back, your fingers dipping on the fabric of his cold, damped shirt.

“I’m sorry I forgot...” You muttered against his shoulder. “I’m the worst friend...”

“I had planned something different for today.” He spoke again. “Since you never notice the way that we belong...” He sighed shakily. “I am the one who finally opened his eyes.” He added, pulling away from you.

His eyes were red and puffy. He was crying.

He looked so hurt, so vulnerable. He looked devastated, and all you wanted to do was hug him and tell him everything was going to be alright.

But deep down, you knew it wouldn’t. Actions always speak louder than words.

“Why are y-”

Kevin chuckled, the tip of his nose reddened as he stepped backwards.

“You’re so dense...” He said, finally turning away and walking away from you.

Kevin knew it back then. No matter how he felt or how he tried, the magic wasn’t there. Nothing would grant his wishes, and luck just wasn’t on his side. He had to learn it in the bad way.

So he left you standing there, confused. You tried to reach him and call him, but he didn’t turn around.

You were in shock, walking back to the car as you felt a stinging pain inside your chest. Your nose became itchy as you opened the door and climbed on the car, closing the umbrella and locking yourself inside the warm space.

You could feel tears threatening to fall, trying to figure out Kevin’s words.

You tucked your cold hands in the pocket of your coat, your gaze going down the moment your fingers came in contact with something placed inside.

As soon as you pulled it out, your breath got stuck in your throat, and before you noticed, you were sobbing against the stirring wheel.

“Oh my god.” You cried, shaky hand moving to cup your mouth. Your heart broke looking at the crescent moon that rested in your hand, the purple glowing heart that dangled on it gently illuminating the flesh of your hands.

He bought it.

He bought it for you.

Because you were told it was meant to be bought for someone special. And he wanted to give it to you.

But you were too busy with Minchan to think about his feelings.

Now that you had put two and two together, you knew what he meant.

“I’ve had this thing eating me alive. I’ve never been good with words, but I’ve always made it obvious. So obvious... You’re the one who still remains oblivious.”

“Everything was good for so long, but then something happened inside me.”

“But there’s no sign you hear the lightning.”

“I am the one who has finally opened his eyes.”

“You’re so dense.”

Tears burned your cheeks as you cried like a baby. What had you done.

He was going to confess to you, and you turned him down before he even tried.

You were an idiot. There was no way you could face him after that.

You had broken your friendship.

You didn’t know how how much time it had passed since that day. You had taken back the car to the dorms and Kevin wasn’t there yet. The boys almost drowned you in questions that you couldn’t answer, the fact that you couldn’t stop crying didn’t help to minimize their concern.

But you couldn’t face them. That’s why you had to call your dad to pick you up again.

It was hard to make them stop asking what was wrong, so you just opted to tell them that you had a fight with Kevin and you were upset.

But it had been almost a week. A week with no calls, with no texts messages. A week without his jokes and his company. A week of loneliness, of crying yourself to sleep, a week of guilt and figuring out your tangled feelings.

You had tried to reach him, but he just didn’t pick up the phone. Admittedly, you were far too ashamed of yourself for hurting him that you just couldn’t go and face him.

It was like the end of a sad movie, the kind of ending you didn’t really wanna see.

It was tragic to think that you’d have to let him go after he held your hand through all these years, because you didn’t know what to be without him around.

None of you thought it was gonna end that way, now there was no one there to save you. Kevin was the only thing you knew like the back of your hand.

Even if you couldn’t breathe without him, you’d have to.

“Are you okay? I’ve noticed you’re kinda down these days.” Minchan said, moving his hand to place it on top of yours across the table, concern in his expression.

You forced a smile with a nod, squeezing his hand in response.

You were thankful for him. After all that had happened, Minchan had been a very much needed distraction and company. He texted you recurrently, called you at nights or took you out. He was really sweet and attentive, and you really did feel comfortable around him, but something was missing.

Despite his sweet disposition and nature, his warm touch and reassurance, despite having the guy you had liked all along to yourself trying to cheer you up, and even sometimes succeeding, he still couldn’t fill the void in your chest.

“I’m okay, I just haven’t been sleeping much and I’m tired.” You lied. “Thank you for looking after me, Minchan.”

A smile formed on his lips. He truly was a beautiful human.

“Don’t mention it. It’s the least I could do for something as special as you.”

You felt your cheeks burn, but somehow, your heart didn’t jump like it usually did.

When he took you back home, you were ready to just get out of the passenger seat, but as soon as your body turned to open the door, he grabbed your hand. You looked back at him, confused, as he brushed a strand of hair behind your ear.

“Minchan?” You mumbled, his eyes sparkled.

“I like you.” He simply said, as his fingertips grazed the skin of your cheek.

You didn’t know what to say. The moment you had been dreaming about for so long was finally about to happen and you wanted to be excited, you really did.

But you didn’t feel anything at all.

Still, he leaned in and you didn’t move. His nose gently brushed against yours, his warm breath fanning against your lips as his lids were half closed.

You took a deep breath through your nose, bracing yourself to let the feelings sparkle.

His lips pressed gently against yours and you closed your eyes. His lips were as soft as you had imagined, and they moved subtly on yours. You hesitated as he cupped your face, tilting his head to kiss you a little deeper, but responded to the kiss.

It could’vw been wonderful, magical, but something you weren’t expecting took you by surprise, and that was Kevin’s face in the back of your mind.

You instantly knew it was wrong, kissing someone and thinking about someone else.

So you pulled away, looking down and grazing your lips with your fingers.

Minchan looked confused.

“I’m sorry...” Was the first thing you managed to say. Tears started pooling in your eyes when you looked at him, and his expression instantly turned into a sympathetic one. “I thought I liked you... I mean, I do... But...”

He smiled sadly.

“You don’t like me in the same way.” He addressed, sighing. “Don’t worry about it, I understand.”

“I-I’m really s-sorry.” You stammered in light sobs. “It’s just... I-I think I’m in love with s-someone else.”

Minchan sighed, wrapping his arms around you and pulling you into his chest. He gently caressed the back of your head, a bittersweet feeling invaded you at the memory of Kevin doing the same days before.

“It’s okay.” He cooed. “I’d be glad to be your friend... If you still want me as one.”

You pulled back and sniffled, smiling with a nod.

“Of course.”

And you weren’t lying.

You knew he was worth it, he was special.

But not in the way you thought he was.

You stormed out of your house the same night, running with all your might. You didn’t even care about any other way of transportation, you felt like drowning and you needed to do something about it.

You couldn’t wait anymore. The more you thought about it, the worse the pain in your heart was. You grasped on the necklace harshly, hoping that maybe what the man said was true. Maybe if you really believed in the magic, it could grant wishes.

So you did. You wished. To get him back, but for life.

His laugh, his voice, his pretty little mouth that never failed to say the right words. His silky hair you would always run your fingers through, his pale skin that felt warm to the touch. His dark, but sparkling eyes that found yours even in the darkest places, the arms that he always kept open for you to give you shelter, the beautiful face you were so familiar with, and his heart that always managed to put you first even when it kept getting broken because of you.

You had to lose him to find the truth. How silly of you.

You couldn’t stop crying despite the air leaving your lungs. Your feet burned and your legs were sore, but nothing could hurt more than your conscience.

You finally stopped in your tracks, leaning forward and resting your hands on your knees trying to catch your breath as you stood in front of the building. Your mind was blurry, dizzy with too many words and possible scenarios.

As soon as you regained your breath, you got inside and made your way to the dorms. You were scared, but too desperate to lift the weight of your shoulders to care.

Finding the right door, you lifted your hand and knocked a few times, teeth sinking in your lip as you tried to keep calm.

Your gaze glued to the floor, your hands shaking and your stomach churning before the door cracked open.

Your eyes traveled to the person that now stood in front of you, and there he was.

Your heart skipped a beat and you, once again, felt the urge to cry.

“Y/N?”

“Kevin.” You muttered, almost in a whisper. “We need to talk, please.”

He stared at you, feeling his own chest tightening before he sighed and moved aside to let you in.

You walked in, taking off your shoes and closing the door behind you.

You took a deep breath, not knowing where to start, which didn’t go unnoticed by him. The way your lip quivered, your hands shook and your eyes looked puffy and red mortified him. Thinking that maybe he had been too hard on you, and hating to see you in such a state, he decided to push his pride aside and speak, ready to once again comfort you for what he thought was a broken heart.

“y/n... I-”

But you stepped forward and interrupted him.

“I’m sorry.” You stated. “I am so fucking sorry.”

He closed his mouth with a scowl, listening to you and thinking that maybe, just maybe, this time it wouldn’t be about Minchan.

So you just continued.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t see the truth.” You continued. “I’m sorry I was so oblivious, I’m sorry for hurting you, for leaving you waiting under the rain, for all the pain i’ve put you through. I’m sorry because I had to get to this point to realize how stupid I am.”

Tears fell from your eyes, and his expression softened.

“It’s okay... You d-”

“I have!” You shouted, cutting him off. Your hands flew to tangle in your hair. “How could I do this to you? After all you’ve done for me?” You cried. “Kev I’m so fucking sorry because not only I was oblivious to your feelings, but also mine.”

He cocked his head, confused.

“What?”

“Kevin I can’t be without you. I feel empty, you’re my other half. I miss everything about you.” You admitted, finding it hard to keep eye contact.

“Hey... You don’t have to feel like you need to reciprocate my feelings. You can’t force that kind of things y/n. I can still be your friend... Maybe I just need a little time to heal, but I’ll be okay. We’ve been together through thick and thin, haven’t we?” He smiled sadly, and your sobs increased.

“No, Kevin!” You cried out, looking at him again and wiping the tears from your eyes with the back of your hand. “It’s not like that!” You assured. “I thought I liked Minchan, I thought that I’d have the perfect life with this cute boyfriend and the best of friends beside me... But how can that happen when I lost both of them?”

“What do you mean?” He asked, frowning. Placing his hands on your shoulders in concern. The sweetness in his voice despite everything made your heart sink down to your stomach. “I already told you... If you want to be with Minchan, do it. I won’t stop being your friend. I might have been distant, even absent these past few days, but... No matter what you do, I’ll always be here for you.”

He was really confused, and you couldn’t blame him for that. You were a mess.

“No Kevin, you don’t understand. I don’t want to be with Minchan.”

“What? Why not?”

“Because since you left I am not myself! I can’t sleep, I can’t eat. Even when he was right beside me I felt empty, Kev. I didn’t understand, after how much I dreamed about him I thought he would be enough, but Jacob was right. A crush sometimes isn’t meant to stop being an illusion, something platonic. And it only made sense the moment he kissed me and all I could think about was you. It had been you all the time and I couldn’t see it.”

His eyes flew open in shock. He felt his heart stopping and shivers running down his skin. His pulse hammered loudly in his ears.

“I know I don’t deserve this and It’s okay if It’s too late for me to say what I'm about to say, but I love you, Kevin. I never thought about it because I always thought you saw me as a sister... But now that I had this deep conversation with my inner self and true feelings I know that I am in love with you.” You cried. “I can’t keep this to myself anymore, I am hurting because I hurt you, and I understand if you reject me b-”

Kevin stepped forward and cupped your face, crashing his lips with yours in a kiss that interrupted your speech. Your body responded to him automatically, kissing him back feverishly. His lips mended with yours and this time your whole world turned upside down. Butterflies in your stomach, burning skin and a racing heart. You wrapped your arms around his neck and buried your fingers in his soft hair. He tilted his head, kissing you deeper as he pushed you until your back hit the door.

One of his hands moved down to the small of your back, pulling you in and pressing your body flush against his as his free one threaded in your hair at the nape of your neck.

His tongue swiped over your lower lip and you parted them to grant him access. The moment his wet tongue touched yours, the ground beneath you shook, making your legs wobbly.

He then pulled back just a little, forehead still pressed against yours as you regained your breath. He gave you a lazy smile, eyes going down to the moon hanging from your neck. He clasped his fingers around it, letting out a throaty chuckle before he locked eyes with you again.

“You thought about me, hm?  Lucky me. Now you have a good reason to think about my lips instead. I'll make sure to kiss you as many times as you need so they're the only ones you ever taste." He teased, caressing your jaw and pecking your lips. "Took you long enough, though, my baby.” He added, pressing his lips on yours in another kiss.

You caressed his jaw with your fingers while you kissed. Oh, how much you were missing out.

“Fuck, I love you.” You whispered in between kisses, and he hummed contently.

When you two finally pulled back with swollen lips, his tongue darted out to run over his, a sweet smile then forming on them as his fingers caressed your skin. Your eyes were still hooded, but you smiled, touching his pretty face with your fingers as you drank him in.

“I love you. And you don’t know how hard it’s been for me... I never thought I’d hear what you said. I never understood how’s that you seemed to fit so well with me but you couldn’t feel it. I was sure that I had no chance, but I needed to try. I needed to have you. I’ve loved you for so long.” He confessed, caressing the way down your arms until he reached your hands and intertwined his fingers with yours. His eyes filled with adoration. “Please come with me.” He said,  dragging you with him.

“Where are we going?”

He turned his head and smirked, lifting a brow.

“I might not need it now, but I told you I had something for you, right?”

Your eyes shot open a shocked look, cheeks burning in crimson red.

“Kevin... What are you thinking?”

He stopped in his tracks and cocked his head, before he realized what you were thinking.

“Okay, I wasn’t really thinking about that, but I mean... If you’re down...”

You laughed out loud, smacking his chest.

“Seriously!”

He laughed along.

“I wrote a song for you.”

“A song?”

He nodded, smiling.

“Since you never noticed that you belonged with me, I was ready to say it in a love song.”

“But I ruined it.” You pouted, walking into his room.

He turned around and cupped your face, placing a kiss on your forehead.

“You did.” He agreed, making you glare at him. “But don’t worry princess, life isn’t long enough for all the songs that I’m gonna write about you.”
