In both versions of them (canon and modern au), what would be Machete and Vasco's ideal date?

I think both of them prefer mostly quiet and chill experiences that don't involve a lot of loud and hectic crowds. They'd probably enjoy going to the movies, or theatre if they're feeling extra fancy. They like museums, galleries, antique markets and book fairs, and do a little bit of casual entry level hiking every now and then. Restaurants, bistros and cafes are a mixed bag, because on one hand eating out is such a classic low-stakes bonding activity, but Machete is a notoriously picky eater and doesn't like surprises when it comes to food.

Have fun in Disney land!

Also! Imagine the gang and ren at disney land. They’re just out there having fun but also freaking out everyone and get kicked out in like, 2 days

Thank you! I had a ton of fun!

This is a fun one to think about, lol.

Killer causes trouble, but somehow never gets caught at it. He's really good at vanishing into crowds, so he tends to trip kids who are being obnoxious or shove adults into one another. The bigger the commotion, the shorter the line for whatever he wants to get on. Dust has his hood up and some sound-dampening earplugs stuffed into his acoustic meatus because he and crowds don't play well together. With something to cut the noise level, he's a little more agreeable. He helps Killer make quick escapes from scene-causing sometimes, but mostly sits back and watches the chaos. Almost better than the attractions. Axe is the one having the most fun, arguably. Everything is so bright and colorful and full of life! None of the cast members look at him oddly, either, and his condition is respected. He chooses to wear a hat while here, so he doesn't frighten someone without provocation, although he does get a little bit of malicious glee in thumping on the outside of Doom Buggies in the Haunted Mansion to get extra scares in. Cross is a little overwhelmed with crowds but generally sticks with Axe, who has the most fun here. Cross enjoys thrill rides, but most enjoy some of the more tame rides. Catch him unironically enjoying Small World. He likes Pirates of the Caribbean too. Baggs... might or might not skip the trip entirely. He might go some days and just hold down the fort others. He's not a huge people person, and the thought of so many crowds isn't very appealing... but if he gets in to see the technical side of how everything works, he's pretty fascinated. Also in the psychological aspect of how the entire park makes use of its assets and theming in different areas to immerse guests. Nightmare won't go within twenty miles of the place. The "Happiest Place on Earth" and the guardian of negativity don't play well together. It's a shame, really; he'd probably enjoy some sense of wonderment here. He's still an old curmudgeon who doesn't mix well with too much tech, and a lot of the things that go on at the park, especially visual effects and illusions, would fascinate him. ...Which means that Ren is in charge, more or less. They have to keep everyone in line. They threaten to put everyone on leash backpacks if they don't behave. But... it's also fun for them because they haven't had the chance to go. It's an expensive trip, but with the resources (and favors to hackers) put in for them by Nightmare, money isn't an obstacle. Nor are the tickets, reservations, or hotel stays.

With Ren around, they don't get kicked out. Killer might be if he ever gets caught, but... That won't happen.

Other fun activities with these idiots here include:

Killer, Axe, and Dust spinning a teacup as fast as they possibly can (which... is pretty damn fast.)

Everyone posing for a pic on Splash Mountain

...And the other rides that take pictures too

Getting stupidly competitive at rides that incorporate scores. No one ever beats Dust at them, but Baggs gets pretty close when he figures out the mechanics of the Astro Blasters and how to aim and never miss.

Lapping Indiana Jones until they get all the routes. Killer enjoys being in the driver's seat, even though the wheel doesn't move.

Feeding Jungle Cruise skippers more puns and jokes for later use.

Also lapping the Incredicoaster until someone gets sick

Making it a contest to see who has to squish back to the hotel room to change after any of the major water rides (especially Splash Mountain and Grizzly River Run)

Getting stupidly competitive on Radiator Springs Racers, even though there's no way to ensure your car wins

Doing laps on Star Tours for aforementioned route reasons

Absolutely killing it on Smuggler's Run. Everyone gets really good at a designated task, although their party is so big they have to be split into two groups.

And lots and lots of other fun little things. no one will admit to it, but they also all like the dark rides in Fantasyland.

Everyone was skeptical of the trip at first, but they all wind up enjoying it so much that it becomes a sort of annual thing. They'd wind up going to the other parks, too.

Escapism Masterlist

The next thing you know, you feel someone shaking your shoulders violently as they attempt to wake you up.

"Go away," you grumble to whoever is determined to ruin your beauty rest.

"Y/N, what the hell are you doing out here?" a familiar voice asks softly as they stop shaking you.

Slowly, you begin to open your eyes. However, it's so damn bright you instantly regret your decision. "Kuroo?" you grumble upon seeing his unmistakably messy hair.

"Why are you sleeping in the middle of the hallway?" he asks you again, letting go of your shoulders this time.

"I'm not sleeping in the hallway," you insist, but as you begin to recall the events of the night, you begin to think he's right.

Suddenly, after remembering all the cocaine you snorted, you sit up straight and check your pockets for-

"Looking for this?" Kuroo asks you. Your stomach drops even before you look up at him and see the small plastic bag in his hand.

"Shit," you grumble.

"You're fucking dead, Y/N," he shakes his head. "Why the hell are you doing this shit again? When did you start doing this shit again?"

"Recently," you grumble as you scratch the top of your head. A small headache is beginning to form just behind your eyes.

"Does Bo know about this?" he then asks.

"No!" you reply quickly. "And you better not fucking tell him!"

"Oh ho ho, look at you trying to bargain with me. Poor Y/N," he shakes his head as he leans down and puts his hands on his knees. "But that's not how this works."

"What the fuck do you want from me now?" you grumble.

"I want you to stop doing this to yourself. Give it up or I'll tell him. I won't let you destroy yourself over some guy you're still crying about," he shakes his head.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," you reply feigning ignorance.

"Oh really?" he scoffs.

"Caden wasn't just some guy, you know," you roll your eyes at him. "I dated him for four months."

"You really think that's a long time? Jesus, Y/N, you barely knew the guy," he sighs as he stands up again.

"Will you chill the fuck out already?" you grumble as you stand up and snatch the plastic bag out of his hand. "I'm fine. This isn't even mine. It belongs to Pheebs but she went in the room with some guy and didn't want him to steal it. So if you don't mind, I'd like to return it to her after this delightful encounter with you."

"Whatever," he shakes his head. "You want to go to the diner with me?"

"Maybe if you help me find my way back up to my dorm first," you smile at him cheesily. "I may not be high but I did drink last night."

"Sure thing," he nods as he wraps his arm around your waist. "Maybe you should shower, too. You reek, Y/N."

"Why're you always such a jerk, Kuroo?" you grumble.

"Just telling it as," he chuckles.

"Whatever," you sigh, "let's just go."

After a quick shower and a change of clothes, you and Kuroo walk to the parking lot on campus. Kuroo leads you to his car and unlocks it, allowing you into his passenger seat.

Less than ten minutes later, you arrive at The Jukebox, Bokuto's grandfather's 50s-themed diner. When Kuroo parks, you walk toward the pink building lit with a neon yellow sign. THE JUKEBOX. The light kills your eyes. Good thing you brought your darkest sunglasses with him. Your headache is only getting worse and worse.

The inside is just what you'd expect. Black and white checkered flooring, red and white walls decorated with old pictures and records, and the two bright smiles of Bokuto and his grandfather.

"Hey Mr. B!" Kuroo waves when he sees the old man behind the counter. "Got any spots for us?" he then asks despite there only being about three other tables occupied. For a Saturday morning, they aren't very busy.

"For you two? Of course I do!" he beams. "Where's the rest of the group?"

"Hungover," you smile at him. "Kuroo just wanted to torment me which is why I'm here." You then grab your sunglasses from atop your head and place them over your eyes.

"So dramatic," Kuroo sighs as he pats your back. "Let's go find a place to sit, Y/N."

You groan as you plop yourself into a booth. "All I want to do is go back to sleep," you grumble as you lean your head against the wall.

"How do you know this isn't a dream, hm?" Kuroo teases you.

"Cause I know you wouldn't be in my dreams," you scoff.

"Maybe it's a nightmare then," he laughs.

"That seems more plausible," you agree with a roll of your eyes.

"I'm sorry that hanging out with me is so bad," he shakes his head.

"Well, you pretty much backed me into a corner. You're blackmailing me for that-" you suddenly stop yourself, remembering that you're in Bokuto's diner.

"For what?" he grins wickedly.

"Nothing," you shake your head. "What're you getting to eat?"

"Hm, probably a hamburger and fries," he nods as he looks down at his menu. "How about you?"

"Seriously? A hamburger? It's like seven in the morning."

"Actually, it's nine," he corrects you as he looks at the watch on his wrist.

"Whatever, I'm getting the hotcakes," you tell him as you eye the breakfast side of the menu as you should when it's this early in the morning.

"Aren't you the same girl who used to eat skittles for breakfast in high school?" he laughs. "Who are you to judge? Besides, hotcakes aren't that much better. They're loaded with sugar. Pretty sure that doesn't help a hangover, Y/N."

"I know you're just trying to help, Kuroo, but I'm a big girl. I can make my own decisions."

"Right..." he mumbles as he looks at something behind you.

"What is it?" you ask quietly as you turn around. Your heart then stops the moment you see him. Bokuto, with a huge grin on his face, is nearly skipping happily in your direction. "Kuroo, please please don't say anything to him. I'm begging you."

"Admit it was yours and that you've got a problem. Then I'll think about promising that."

Shit, you think to yourself. Either way, you're pretty much screwed. Kuroo won't stop watching you like a hawk until he knows you're sober. And if Bokuto knew, well, it'd be like telling him that someone shot his puppy.

New Beginnings

Hello again my fellow shippers! Today's day three of Ulquihime week and I'm not gonna lie, this theme was giving me a bit of trouble, since I had an idea for it but used it last year with another prompt. So instead I just made a sort of sequel to that particular entry. If you don't want to go back and read that one I'll just give you a mini summary here.

Basically this is a canon divergent AU in which Orihime dosen't marry Ichigo and runs away from the wedding when she finds out he's not truly in love with her. After her escape she reunited with Ulquiorra and he helped calm her down. That's where the first prompt ended. So here's what would happen after. Hope you all like!

@ulquihimeweek

Ulquihime Week- Day 3- Reunion/Caught

New Beginnings

"Ulquiorra, you've been glued to that phone for almost three hours now. Please stop before you go blind." Halibel chided him.

"Leave him be Hali, he's still waiting for pet-sama to reply," Nnoitra told her. The comment earned him a cushion to the face, courtesy of Zommari.

"All of you be quiet! I am not waiting for a reply. Orihime answered already."

"Would ya look at that, Ulquiorra's finally getting some!"

Once he silenced Nnoitra with cushions Ulquiorra went back to the chat. It had been almost a month since he last saw Orihime.

After she ran away from her wedding and they met by chance, he had allowed her to spend the night in his house. The next day one of her friends came to pick her up, and the redhead promised to keep in touch with him. He hadn't seen her personally since, but they messaged each other very often. Last week however, the messages had abruptly stoped, and he'd gotten worried.

Today those worries ended, as Orihime not only wrote to him but she asked to meet him in a cafe tomorrow.

"She says she's got a surprise. Should that be concerning?"

Halibel was standing nearby. She chuckled at the question. "Not really. I'm sure she's just happy to finally see you. From what you tell me, the girl needed comfort desperately."

"I'm still enraged at Kurosaki for what he did. A part of me wants to get revenge."

"That's not gonna be possible. Unless you want to get smashed against the wall again." His friend replied sarcastically.

"A small price to pay, but the woman told me not to get in 'trouble' for her sake. So I won't interfere unless she asks."

"Good. It's nice to know someone in this house isn't a reckless moron." The green-eyed blonde glared at Nnoitra, who rolled his eyes.

"I only tried to fight a cop one time!"

Ulquiorra decided to ignore the bickering and concentrate on hid phone. Being a human might've gotten easier, but not dealing with his old comrades.

***

"Now remember, be nice, let her speak but don't stay too quiet, and for the love of all that's good just ask her out properly."

Halibel and Szayel had been helping him get ready for the meeting. Ulquiorra was still nervous, but he hoped for the best.

"You two are going to ruin his chances of scoring. He looks like he came out of a band Tesla likes."

"Says the man who looks like the lovechild of a sewer goblin and Slenderman." Szayel didn't even turn to look at Nnoitra as he finished brushing Ulquiorra's hair'. "Done! Now the princess won't take her eyes off of you."

"Thank you Szayel, thank you Halibel."

"At your service!"

"I'll get going then, I want to be early for our meeting."

"Just make sure that if you bring the cutie home, you put a sock in the door."

Ulquiorra ignored Nnoitra's comment. Letting Szayel deal with him.

"I'm beginning to understand why I am the only one with a boyfriend here," Szayel commented. "You need an intervention, Jirga."

"Me? You're the one dating Starrk!"

As the bickering began Ulquiorra headed for the door and waved goodbye to Halibel.

The cafe was near his house, and from what he could see it was not too busy. Orihime's hadn't arrived yet. He picked a table and was ready to sit down, until he noticed someone skating right towards him.

"Watch out!"

He recognized Orihime's voice, and caught her before she could crash into him.

"Orihime?"

"Hi Ulquiorra! It's been a while. You look great!"

When she smiled Ulquiorra went speechless. He recovered quickly, and let her sit with him.

"I take it you work here?"

"Yes. My friend Riruka is the manager and I've been working here for a week now. That's why it took me a bit to reply, sorry if you were worried."

"Don't apologize. I'm glad you've found a job you like. The uniform suits you as well."

"Really? I didn't think black was my color."

"To be fair, you look good in any clothes."

Orihime blushed from the compliment. "Thank you. So, what have you been up to? Are the others still around?"

He sighed. "Regrettably so, Cyan and Tesla moved out a while ago, and if Starrk proposes to Szayel soon then it's likely they'll move out as well."

Orihime giggled. "I know they drive you mad sometimes but I'd love to live in house that lively."

"Tell me that after you spent a week with Nnoitra as a roommate. Speaking of which, are you still rooming with Arisawa-san?"

"Not exactly, Tatsuki-chan is traveling due to competitions, but she did leave me the apartment. Once I get a place of my own I'll move out, being on Karakura it's a little draining."

He knew what she referred to, it was clear in her voice. Ulquiorra found it hard to hide his rage, still, he managed to calm down.

"You know that if you cannot stand to stay in Karakura any longer, you're more than welcome to stay with me."

"I know, and I'm incredibly grateful for that. But when I finally settle in Naruki, I want it to be on my own. I can't keep depending on others forever. Besides, you dealt with enough of my crying, that night, already."

Yes, that fateful night when they met again. It was supposed to be her wedding that to the man she loved, and instead, all she could do was cry.

And yet, a part of him was happy things turned out the way they did. That he got to see her again, and even establish a friendship. 'But at what cost? This isn't what she wanted and you know it.'

"Ulquiorra? Are you ok?"

Orihime must've noticed his change in mood, so he hid it away yet again. "I'm fine."

"You're thinking about the day we met again, aren't you?"

"My apologies. You probably don't even want to think about that night but I can't seem to let it go.

It's selfish of me to be happy about this when you lost the man you loved."

Orihime put her hand over his. "Ulquiorra, you're not the only one who's happy things turned out this way.

I did love Ichigo, and I was fully ready to marry him, I gave up college and internships to stay in Karakura with him, but he burned that away in just a moment. I refuse to be the one grieving.

He's the one who lost out on a devoted loving wife. Let him carry the grief if he has any at all.

I'm immensely happy to have gotten out when I did. My life's not going to be wasted on a loveless marriage, and I'm happy that you're a part of my new life. So don't be angry on my behalf."

Ulquiorra smiled. "I've always known you were a strong woman, but this is far more than I expected. You've grown a lot Orihime. You should be proud."

"Thank you. It’s nice to know that someone thinks of me as such.” Orihime smiled. “Now, let’s go onto more cheerful matters. I got you a gift! Here!"

She handed him a small dark blue box, Ulquiorra opened it to find a replica of the bracelet he had given her when they were enemies, only this bracelet was made to fit him.

"Do you like it? It's not real silver but it matches the one I have. So we can both wear them at the same time."

In the past six years he'd been a human Ulquiorra never felt moved to cry, until now. "I shall treasure it forever. Thank you." He immediately put it on, the bracelet was a perfect fit. "Now, I'll be the one to spoil you for a while."

***

The evening only had so many hours, but he intended to make good use of them all. After having a nice dinner at the cafe, he took Orihime to the movies. It was about a SciFi story he had yet to read, but seeing how happy Orihime was while watching he knew he made the right choice. After that he let her pick the activity.

"We could go skating. Would you like that?"

"I have no problems with that, but aren't you tired of skating at work?"

"Not really, I love doing it. Besides it's different when you skate carrying food and when you do it with a partner."

"Alright then, let's go to the skate park."

Relief washed over him when the park was almost empty. Truth to be told Ulquiorra wasn't proficient at any sport, including skating.

While Orihime was busy putting on her skates, he went over to nearby post and got a bouquet of hibiscus flowers.

When he got back she was done with her skates and had tied her orange hair into pigtails. He thought she looked even cuter.

"Here. I thought it would be fair to get you a gift as well." Ulquiorra handed her the bouquet.

Orihime was almost gentle when holding the flowers. She took a deep breath, enjoying the secent. "They're gorgeous, thank you. How did you know this was my favorite flower?"

"They're the flower on your headpins."

"True. I like that you always notice things like that. It's one of your best traits."

That made him flustered. It didn't matter how much time they spent together he would never get used to Orihime's cute compliments.

Once the the two were ready they headed for the track and began skating. His balance wasn't the best but thankfully he didn't slip.

"Ulquiorra."

"Yes?"

"Thanks for tonight. It's been the most fun I've had in a while."

She gave him a kiss on the cheek, that almost made him fall. Orihime held on tightly to him.

"Caught ya!" she chuckled. "You don't skate much, do you?"

"Busted. I rarely do anything sporty. Although that's likely to change."

"Really?"

"Yes. If I am going to be spending time with you, I'll learn in no time."

"Are you asking me out?"

"I am. Would you accept this invitation?"

"Yes, absolutely."

Theme: Fluff | Boyfriend!AU

Starting the day with your puppy, who seems to love your kisses. 

Slowly opening your eyes, you woke up up to the gentle sunshine hitting your cheek, slightly groaning at the interruption from your dreamland. But the frown was wiped off as quick as it appeared when you heard the soft snoring of your puppy beside you.

You carefully turned to your other side to face your puppy and slightly giggled at the sight before you. You slowly caressed its cheek, earning an adorable whine from it, and led your hand to its hair, gently ruffling as your eyes flickered to its lips—

"Baby, where's my goodmorning kiss?"

Okay, he's not an actual pup.

You were startled by his hoarse and his definitely seductive voice but you didn't show it.

Or tried not to show it.

"Goodmorning, my baby boo." You greeted with a smile as his lips curled up, his eyes still closed as he felt your touches reach his scalp, gently scratching and massaging it.

"Kiss." Baekhyun demanded, making his order much more stronger as his voice was heavier and deeper than the usual. You chuckled as he eagerly pulled you closer, his arms wrapping tighter around your waist with one hand on your lower back while the other strayed its way to your behind. His lips slightly pouted expectantly, making you smile wider.

This sneaky fella.

"Alright, Baek." You run your fingers through his newly dyed black tousled hair and leaned your face closer to his. He smiled gratefully as he felt your breath near him when—

"Babe..." Baekhyun whined as he opened his eyes, your warmth escaping from his grasp with your laugh echoing the room. You opened the curtains wider, letting the sun lighten up the room more, before turning to your now fully awake puppy sitting up on the bed with his small lips pouting that you just wanna kiss them and never pull away.

"You know what to do before you can get a kiss, baby." You winked as you walked to the bathroom. You heard his shuffling on the bed before light footsteps followed you. Baekhyun's head popped beside the open door of your bathroom, his eyes pleading.

"Oh come on, Baek. Just grab your toothbrush and brush your teeth." You laughed at his childish act. He walked inside the bathroom an stayed behind you with a pout. It wasn't because the room was small for two people, it's just because this puppy is such a touchy and clingy baby.

Baekhyun reached out for his toothbrush, his arms caging your waist as they passed by you. You continued brushing your teeth as you watch your lover put toothpaste on his toothbrush. When he finished, you smiled as he moved closer and rested his chin on the crook of your neck, his hand lightly gripping on his toothbrush as he did as you commanded while his other was lazily slung on your waist.

"You're such a lazy corgi, Baek." You laughed as you watched him on the mirror in front of you two. Baekhyun puffed his cheeks adorably at your comment, making you squeal because of his cuteness.

"You're getting into Twitter these days again." Baekhyun said but not without splashing bubbles on your cheek, making you frown slightly.

"I'm an EXO-L, Baek. Twitter is like a necessity for me to live everyday."

"Sure, baby."

Baekhyun nodded with a smile curling up on his lips as he closed his eyes, continuing to brush his teeth. You gargled and finished brushing your teeth, washing your tooth brush and filling up your glass of water for Baekhyun's use.

"You need to hurry up if you don't want your bestfriend—" Just as you said that, rapid knocks were fired at your bedroom door. You groaned in annoyance as Baekhyun grinned. You moved out of his grasp to answer the door before the person outside manages to destroy it.

"Speaking of the devil and..." You mumbled as you opened the door with a frowm. His wide smile was plastered on his face and his eyes twinkling, slightly making you guilty for frowning at his presence. "...Chanyeol shall appear."

"Goodmorning, babe." He greeeted, placing a wet kiss on your cheek, making you roll your eyes.

"Yah, I heard that, you giant!" You heard Baekhyun yell from the bathroom.

"I'm here with the boys. Kyungsoo's cooking already with Lay while the others are just making theirselves home." Chanyeol said as he ignored his best friend's yell. You nodded with a smile.

"We'll be down for a few. You know how slow this corgi can be." You pointed your lips towards the open bathroom door, making Chanyeol laugh hysterically.

"I-I see that in every tweet, seriously! I can really see Baek as a corgi! So fat and lazy." Chanyeol panted as he tried stopping his laugh, making you laugh too. Goodness, his laugh was contagious.

"Yah, Park Chanyeol." Baekhyun frowned as he turned the lights off of the bathroom and closed the door before walking towards you and the said man. He snaked his arm around your waist from the side and glared at Chanyeol. "You can go now, we're already awake as you can see. Choo." Baekhyun waved his hand as if he's simply making a dog leave.

"Were you offended by the corgi thing or what?" His best friend teased as he ran away when Baekhyun made a move towards him. "Corgi BAEEK!" His laugh echoed on the hallway as Baekhyun closed the door with a frown.

"Aww, my baby is frowning, why?" You placed your hands on his cheeks, slightly squishing them as you stared at him. His eyes drifted to your own and you inwardly cooed as he looked like a lost child. "Do you not like being called a corgi that much? Okay then, I won't—"

"He was too close to you..."

His voice was barely a whisper but you still heard it. Your cheeks slightly flushed as you bit your lip, trying to hide your smile.

"What was it?" You decided to play innocent and deaf as you watch his ears turning red. He was getting embarrassed, omg.

"Nothing, let's just go. They're waiting." Baekhyun's lower lip slightly jutted out as he placed his hand around the door knob again.

"Baby, where's my goodmorning kiss?" You cooed as you pouted, making him halt his movements. He slowly turned around and looked back at you. "Stop being a jealous corgi and kiss me."

As you've commanded, he shall comply.

Baekhyun's arms wrapped around your waist securely as his hands wandered from your back to your ass, squeezing your cheeks as he passed by them. His lips moved perfectly with yours, tongue caressing your insides and wetting every corner of your lips. Your hands went up to his neck, massaging your way up to his hair, earning a pleased moan from the man. You smiled as he trapped your lower lip between his, slightly sucking it like a new born puppy. His kisses drifted down to your cheek to your jaw down to your neck and collarbones. His wet trail was sticky but you couldn't care less.

"I think we need to go before your best friend goes up again and interrupt us." You chuckled when your heard Baekhyun groan as he continued peppering your neck with kisses, his other hand going up to the outline of your breast. "Yah. We're not doing it today, you've got a lot of work to do."

Like a wake up call to his soul, Baekhyun pulled his head away from your neck with a whine and stared into your eyes instead, your noses brushing each other closely. You smiled as his eyes were back to their bright and happy lights. You made him happy and contented again.

"You're this corgi's property, okay?" Baekhyun whispered, his minty breath fanning your lips. You giggled as he admitted he was really a corgi. You nodded and slightly craned your neck to peck his nose.

"So, I'm like a bone to you then?" You commented as you grabbed his hand, closing your bedroom door with the other.

"Nope, you're like my mate."

"Aww, baby Baek is so sweet."

"I'm always sweet, baby."

"Really?!"

"Yah, stop acting like I've never done anything sweet to you!"

You laughed as Baekhyun kept on rambling about the sweet things he did for you in the past 3 years of your relationship.

He didn't even have to do anything to be sweet.

He was already enough sweetness that made you smile every day.

Starlit Nights

A scenario of going out to a theme park and you aren't a fan of height but you didn't tell him. This is a bit of a romance comedy and comfort type short story with my Bias Kim Byeongkwan. I hope you enjoy it and find good and supportive relationships. <3

Byeongkwan told you to wait by the entrance gate because he already bought the tickets for today. You hope he doesn't feel too bad because you actually arrived early and he doesn't like to make you wait. Smiling to yourself he was a thoughtful gentlemen through and through. While you waited your eyes drifted up to the sky even with the lights from the park entrance the stars were so bright and could be seen. A voice that always fills your chest with warmth butterflies calls out your name. There in front of you was someone who shined brighter than any star. Your face widen into a smile seeing his smiling face and eyes shimmer with life. "Hi Byeongi~" You held your arms out as he ran to you scooping you and spinning you. As you wrapped your arms around his neck and he held onto your waist. Laughing as you both kept spinning. "Okay Kwanie can you please put me down? We're going to be spinning enough later better save up our endurance." Byeongkwan looks up at you with his bottom lip stuck out in a pout. "Fine I guess I have to put you down... after one last spin." True to his word he spun you one last final time. When your feet final met the ground again he kept your waists together looking into your eyes. You reached up to cup his face in both your hand a pressed a soft kiss onto his lips. Which he returned and then kissed your forehead stepping away but not before he grabbed your hand. Reaching into his pocket with his free hand for the tickets. "Let's get it!" You rolled your eyes laughing. "Where did you learn that? You even have me saying it now." "Come on if we don't get in there we will miss out on park time." Walking side by side. He handed the tickets to the male park attendant. After a quick thank you it was time to carry out the strategy you both planned out over chat. The one thing you were nervous about was the one ride near the end of the night. Sure rollercoasters with death drops were fine and haunted houses. Heck, even bungee jumping was alright with you. However Byeongkwan was so excited to go on the massive Ferris wheel with you that you didn't have the heart to tell him that it terrified you. All the things you weren't afraid of didn't matter. You couldn't stand disappointing your lovely and thoughtful boyfriend. If he knew of course he'd take it off the list. There was a little tug on your hand that brought your thoughts back to the moment. First up was one of your picks since he insisted "Ladies first~". The excitement of the music and crowd got you as you practically dragged him behind you. All the while he eyes grew softer as he watched how happy and carefree you were here. Normally you were pretty playful but somedays you were really weighed down with things on your plate and he wanted nothing but to take it away but he knew there was a limit. So moments like this he could help you be bursting with happiness were everything. You had become his world. You were the person who held him tightly and dearly the first time you saw his resolute and cheerful exterior crumble. No judgement in your eyes. You he was still that cheerful bright person but you understood there was sadness and a lot of pressure that could make him sad and anxious. In that way you were similar. The next day after that you were waiting beside the bed with chin on the edge next to him as he woke up. "Hey beautiful boy. I love you. More than you know. I'm glad you felt safe enough to show me how you were feeling. Byeongi, you always try so hard to give to everyone else. It's okay to take a little more than you do." With that you leaned forward and kissed both his eye lids. Still swollen from where he had cried. "Now get on out here and eat. I made my secret French toast and a mountain of bacon and eggs." With that you walked out the door turning around to smile at him. In the corner of the room was the shirt you had worn last night he soaked with tears tossed into the laundry basket.

Those memoires made it feel like he owed you. Even if you always argued he did more for you. There you sat kicking your feet next to him having the time of your life. As you both comped away on a strawberry funnel cake. Small waves of heat weaving into the air as the night got cooler. Pieces of your hair sticking up here and there looking a mess. Byeongkwan reached out and smoothed what he could. You froze for a second looked up at him through your bangs. Pulling a piece of the funnel cake off he bopped it on your nose covering it powdered sugar. "Hey!" He couldn't stop laughing and his laugh was contagious that you couldn't stay annoyed at him and began laughing with him. While he was distracted you pulled off a piece too and bopped his mouth with it. Leaving his lips covered in powered sugar. While he was laughing and distracted you dove in kissed him. After pulling back you giggled at his startled expression. "There now we're even and how else could I get all the sugar off?" Looking at you he saw you'd gotten some sugar on the corner of your mouth and brushed it off for you with his thumb. Most guys weren't nearly this fun and could relax. You really were luck and blessed to have him. It was like God gave you exactly what you had hoped for and more when you found him. The night was growing deeper. The next ride was a haunted house. Both of you had a small hobby of watching Horror movies so this was going to be one of the highlights. It was a ride through one. The story of the ride was that during a great fire. Everyone else of the great estate escaped except for Mildred. The head of staff. Not noticing sweet Mildred hadn't made it out she burned along with the great mansion. Some years pass and on nights under the full moon the mansion appears. You have to avoid Mildred or she will catch you and make you be one of the staff for eternity. Her face is said to be so burned there is no skin left. It made Byeongkwan and yours skin crawl. The creepier the better. You made it through most the ride laughing and enjoying. Except for when it sounded like the floor was breaking the cart fell down onto a track underneath. Afterwards both your hair a mess. You laughed at each other for both screaming like babies. Reenacting how high pitched you were. Byeongkwan made fun of you for screaming "Did you hear yourself it was hysterical." "Big talk for someone who screeched like a banshee." It was well down to the last thing on the list. Byeongkwan pushed you along from behind bouncing on his feet. He was so excited eyes shinning. Ready to ride the Ferris wheel like many of the other couples in line. He had looked up this park on line and couples raved about how romantic and beautiful the view was. You did your best to not think about your fears and smile along with him. Hoping your boyfriend won't notice any change in your behavior. The thing is he's really good on picking up changes in moods. As you got closer the more nervous you felt. Eventually you decided the best thing to do was lean onto Byeongkwan and play it off as you wanting to cuddle. Which you did it was the only thing keeping you from running. It was unfortunately your turn now. "Let's go it's our turn come one Y/N~ I'm so excited." Forcing a smile you followed behind him into the open sided car. It wasn't so bad till the wheel started to move and the car swung slightly side to side. Your started to go rigid. Thankfully ByeongKwan was looking at the view. "Oh my gosh, you gotta look at the view it's amazing~ Y/N?"

It was then he realized that something was wrong. You were frozen stiff and your eyes were shaking. You were afraid. He'd rarely seen it but he knew. Why hadn't he picked up on it sooner. He began to feel terrible. Why didn't she say something, why didn't he notice. "Y/n you're scared aren't you?" He stopped to sigh and shake his head, "Why didn't you say so. It started in line didn't it? I took it as you being tired." Within in seconds your effort to not cry shook you. Tears in your eyes hating the fear you had because it was stupid. Slamming your eyes shut you started to speak in a wobbling voice. "I'm sorry I know it's stupid but this is the one thing here that scares me... and... and..." Byeongkwan slide closer to you and pulled your hands into his lap rubbing the back of them with his thumbs. "Hey, you shouldn't have to be ashamed you're scared. Even if you think it's stupid. Look at me." You pried your eyes open as the tears threatened to fall. "We're you trying to impress me or something? I don't think you weak or anything. So why? Talk to me please Y/n." He had his lip stuck out in a pout which he knew would normally always get you give up information. Your throat burned and as you opened you mouth tears started rolling down your cheeks. "Hey hey Y/n. Calm down and breathe first." Leading you through a few breaths. "Byeongi you were so excited to ride this together. It was the one thing you insisted on doing and I didn't want to... to... say no and make you disappointed." Now with you chin pointed down Byeongkwan had to lean down to peer into your eyes. He gently held your face tilting it up and brushing the tears away with his fingers. "Keep that up and your makeup is going to run." He said hoping to get a laugh out of you. All he got was a sad half laugh. As a few more stray tears rolled down. He looked sadly at you for a moment. His eyes were deep and dull as he felt his heart ache thinking how upset you must to be acting so unlike yourself. "Hey, please promise me this won't happen again. You'll tell me so you don't put yourself in distress for me. I only chose this because I was so happy about seeing you up here eyes all bright and smiling and we could be alone for a little here at the park. But that back fired huh? You wouldn't disappointed me by saying no. Okay." He looked you right in the eyes and you knew from how he whispered that last sentence he meant it. All you do was nod and he gave a small sad smile and kissed your cheek. You collapsed into his side shaking from how the ride swung slightly and the thought of how high it was. He kept shushing you and turned your face so it was hidden in his shirt as your arm snaked around his waist. Gripping hard onto him as you shook and his kissed the top of your head. As he hummed the tune of 5TAR. He felt a little helpless and the only thing he could think of was to put you on his lap and wrap his arm around you. Bad as this all was now he saw how much you trusted him. Never before had you shown this vulnerability and let your guard down. Your face now was tucked into his neck and your arms snaked around his neck. You were so focused on not looking that you hadn't noticed it was time to get off till Byeongkwan stood up and walked out of the car carrying you. Pulling your face away from his neck you spoke in a small voice. "I can walk Byeongi." "I know you can but you don't have to and plus you're still shaking like a kitten. It's alright close your eyes." There was no fighting him on it and you knew it. So you rested your face against his neck. This night had some great moments and some bad moments but in the end. Maybe it wasn't all so bad. You realized maybe you should tell him the truth more and be willing to trust him with your things you aren't so proud of. Maybe tonight isn't so bad. I don't think Y/N has ever shown this much of herself and spoken so openly about being upset to me. I trust her fully maybe now she'll know she can count on me too like that. With that he pressed a kiss to Y/N's head. The end.
