exile
vernon x gn reader
part of my seventeen x taylor swift series!
wc: 493
warnings: angst
would recommend listening to exile by taylor swift and bon iver while reading!
masterlist
--
vernon stands in the corner of the room. his beer is room temperature and the music is loud. he sees seungkwan and seokmin by the tv, singing karaoke at the top of their lungs. he sees mingyu and wonwoo in the side room playing beer pong against their girlfriends. he sees seungcheol and jeonghan trying to drag a wasted soonyoung away from the drinks. and he sees you, standing across the room, jun’s arm around your waist, as you laugh at something vernon’s sure isn’t funny at all.
he takes a sip of his beer and grimaces, setting it down on the table closest to him. he looks up and his eyes are drawn to you. before he can realize his mistake, he’s already made eye contact. your eyes look sad, your smile fading as you see the pain in vernon’s face. he looks away quickly, missing the way your face starts to mirror the ache in his heart.
he searches for the nearest exit and finds it at the kitchen side door. stepping out into the crisp autumn air, he takes a shaky breath as he tries not to cry. he’s cried enough already; in his dorm room as chan tried to awkwardly comfort him, in the studio with jihoon as he tried to write their midterm project about anything other than you, in the coffeeshop while he studied with joshua and minghao and he heard someone ordering your favorite drink.
vernon makes his way to the porch swing in front of the house. swinging in silence, he’s too zoned out to hear you open the door and step outside. he stiffens when you sit down next to him, halting the swing. the two of you sit in silence until you break it. “you need to stop.” he shifts uncomfortably in his seat. “stop what?”
“you know what.” he’s silent for another moment before you speak up again. “you can’t keep pretending we have another chance. you’ve had plenty.” he sighs. “they don’t count as chances if you already have one foot out the door.” you sit up straight and turn to face vernon. “maybe because we were over as soon as we started!” you exclaimed, “we were always on thin ice.” 
vernon can feel himself getting frustrated. he hated that you were the only one capable of making him feel this way. “i can’t read your mind. you didn’t give me any warning before you left.” you sigh and rest your back against the swing. “i gave so many signs. you just didn’t see them.”
the two of you sit in silence once more, before you let out a deep breath and stand up. “jun isn’t just a rebound while i wait for you. it’s real. i need you to move on, for both our sakes.” you walk back into the house before vernon can respond, leaving him alone on the porch, wondering how it all went so terribly, terribly, wrong.

warnings: fluff, drinking
would recommend listening to gorgeous by taylor swift while reading!
the party game they play is based on a game i played once last year (back before covid)
masterlist
--
“you’re drooling.”
you’re shocked out of your daze by a giggling minghao. you wipe your mouth but your hand comes back dry. giving him a light shove, you roll your eyes.
“i wasn’t. shut up.” eyes shining with mirth, minghao glances over at the other side of the room. “you should talk to him.” you vigorously shake your head. “absolutely not.”
“if it’s because of that guy from last week, he’s a jerk and you should get over him.” you sigh and take a sip of the beer in your hand, cringing at the taste. “i know. i’m staying away from grad students for the time being.”
“…he’s just..way too beautiful for me. i wouldn’t be able to say anything to him.” minghao groans. “stop idolizing him. he’s a college student just like the rest of us.” you open your mouth to respond but you’re interrupted by a very inebriated soonyoung stumbling upon the two of you.
“guys!!” he slings his arms around both your shoulders and you stumble from his deadweight. “we’re playing a game in the other room. come join!” he doesn’t wait for a response and instead drags you and minghao out of the living room and into the game room. there’s already a good number of people in there, and your other friend seungkwan is attempting to organize them into a semblance of a circle.
you sit down next to vernon from your music class and minghao takes the seat on your other side. you’re discussing the ethics of sampling music with vernon when you see him walk in. he’s accompanied by a girl and you steel yourself for the inevitable jealousy filling your veins. you wonder if she’s his girlfriend, but if he’s single that might be even worse to think about.
he also takes a seat in the big circle, greeted by his friends and you force yourself to look away. standing in the middle of the circle, seungkwan claps his hands loudly to get everyone’s attention. “okay! the game is seven minutes in heaven, but instead of pulling names, you’ll pull a piece of paper with either a riddle or an answer. once you find the person with the matching piece of paper, you’ll go in the closet with them!”
a hat gets passed around and you pull a piece of paper with the words ‘the more of me there is, the less you see. what am i?’ you turn to ask minghao what his paper says but his only has the word ‘dictionary’ on it.
you make your way through the people in the room and with your luck, it’s no surprise that you can’t find the answer to your riddle. you do manage to direct a giggling mingyu towards minghao with a paper that reads ‘where does today come before yesterday?’
soon enough, the only people you haven’t asked are the people sitting by him. you know that if you had to stand in a dark closet with him you would sink and drown and die after merely making eye contact but you can’t help the small part of you that wants it to be him.
you’re standing on the side, watching most people find their partners and soon enough, it’s just you and 3 others left. the girl that was next to him has already found her partner, and you take satisfaction in the fact that he didn’t seem bothered by her leaving.
seeing the four people left just awkwardly standing around, seungkwan takes charge of matching the partners up. he takes your arm and pulls you towards the other three, gesturing for you to read your riddle out loud. avoiding eye contact, you read your paper quietly. “uh..the more of me there is, the less you see. what am i?” the other two people shake their heads, and your eyes widen when you hear his voice.
“darkness. that’s the answer.” you look up at him and theres a soft smile on his face directed towards you. “it’s a match!” seungkwan cheers, and grabs both of your hands. he drags you towards a side room and shoves you in the closet, your partner following behind. still in disbelief over your luck, you stay quiet in the corner.
“i’m jeonghan.” he breaks the silence. “i know,” you say quietly before realizing how that sounds. “i-i mean, i’ve heard your name around..and i think we have mutual friends and..” you let your words trail off in embarrassment. voice soft again, you tell him your name. with your eyes adjusted to the dim lighting, you make out a smile on his face when he responds. “i know.”
shy, you duck your head to avoid eye contact. the closet is quiet for a bit before he speaks again. “you know, i’m kinda glad our papers matched.” startled, you look back up at him. “really?”
“yeah,” he grins. “i’ve always wanted to talk to you. i think you’re gorgeous and really talented.” your eyes widen at his confession. “what?” he giggles before continuing. “i don’t know if you remember, but we were in the same photography class freshman year.”
you rack your brain to try and remember his face in that class. you were a lot quieter as a freshman and you didn’t speak to anyone in most of your classes, preferring to sit closer to the front and focus on your work. “i always thought your projects were beautiful,” jeonghan interrupts your thoughts.
shy from the praise, you respond with a soft ‘thank you.’ the room is silent again for moment before he reaches out and takes your hand in his. he seems to hesitate before he speaks. “..if you’re interested, i’d love to take you out for dinner sometime next week.”
mouth open in shock, it takes you a few seconds to respond. “yeah! i mean, yeah, sure.” his smile appears again and you want to be mad because of how gorgeous he looks even in the bad lighting, but you can’t, because the days of thinking he’s someone you can’t have are over.

before sunrise
wonwoo x gn reader
wc: 603
warnings: none, fluff
request: hii can i request a friends to lovers fluff w wonwoo, prompts 50 and 64 pls thank u :)
the title is for the movie they watch in this, before sunrise. i had to watch it for class this week and it's really good! would recommend it to anyone who likes romance movies.
masterlist
--
“green tea.”
you whipped your head towards the boy on your couch. “huh?”
not looking up from his phone, wonwoo continued. “you’ve been standing there and staring at the coffee and tea pods for the last 10 minutes.”
he turned and looked into the kitchen from his seat in the living room. “just have green tea, you already had coffee today and it’s late.”
you rolled your eyes and grabbed a green tea pod, popping it into the coffeemaker. “are you wanting popcorn?”
“yes please.” wonwoo set his phone down and picked up your tv remote, looking for the movie the two of you had already decided on for the night. you grabbed your mug of tea and a bowl of popcorn, heading out of the kitchen right as wonwoo started the movie.
it was your turn to pick, and you chose before sunrise. it was a romance movie, which may not have been the best idea considering the fact that you were harboring some romantic feelings for your best friend. regardless, you enjoyed your weekly movie nights with wonwoo and were content with being his friend for now.
despite wonwoo’s hesitance when reading the summary of the movie, he was just as engrossed in the story as you were. the two characters fell in love spending just one day together, and before you knew it, it was the end of the movie and time for them to part.
you scrunched your eyebrows when you heard a sniffle from the seat next to you. turning your head, you saw wonwoo move his face away from you, bringing a hand up to wipe his eyes.
“..wonwoo..are you crying?” he cleared his throat and turned back to you. “no. of course not,” he responded, voice cracking a bit at the end.
you looked back at the couple on screen as they said goodbye on the train, not knowing when they’d see each other again. you turned back at your best friend as your eyes began to tear up too.
wonwoo took one look at your misty eyes and felt his tears build up again. “if you start crying, i’m gonna cry too.” you giggled at that. “you’re already crying.” he rolled his eyes while holding back a smile, giving you a light shove before wrapping his arm around your shoulder.
when the movie finally ended, you sat up, wiping your eyes. wonwoo smiled fondly at you. “did you like the movie?” you grinned. “i did! i loved how the movie seemed so simple yet their relationship developed so much and it’s like you fall in love with the characters as they fall in love with each other and-“
you paused when you noticed wonwoo staring at you. you could tell he wasn’t exactly listening to a word you were saying, but his eyes were sparkling and you felt your heart jump.
“why are you looking at me like that?” wonwoo broke out of his daze at your question, still keeping his eyes on you. “i just want to kiss you right now,” he said, a hint of a smile on his face.
you widened your eyes, not expecting him to say that. “then do it.” you inwardly screamed at your boldness, but any embarrassment was forgotten when he placed a hand on your cheek and pressed his lips to yours.
separating after a few moments, the two of you stare at each other, butterflies in your stomachs. wonwoo breaks the silence, keeping his arm around you.
“i guess while you were falling in love with the characters, i was falling in love with you.”

forever and always
joshua x gn reader
part of my seventeen x taylor swift series!
wc: 297
warnings: angst
would recommend listening to forever and always by taylor swift while reading!
masterlist
--
“forever and always.”
that’s what he said to you almost every time you parted. now you wonder if he ever really meant it.
you met him on a tuesday. you caught his eye when you first walked into the lecture hall. he got your number under the guise of studying together and from then on, you were caught under his spell.
he was the perfect gentlemen, taking you out on dates and telling you he loved you after that one fateful night out.
now you sit by your phone, wondering if he’s ever gonna call. it’s raining outside and you feel numb. you wonder if it was something you said. if you scared him off. one moment it felt perfect, and the next moment he was gone.
seungkwan drags you out of your apartment, adamant that you need to get over it. it’s not his fault that he takes you to the coffee shop the two of you used to always go to.
he’s there, of course, and you recognize that smile he used to have around you, now reserved for the friend he’s with.
“order for joshua!”
he walks towards the counter to get his drink and when he looks up you meet eyes. it feels wrong. it’s as if he’s forgotten you. the boy looking at you is not the boy you thought you knew.
he breaks the eye contact and walks out of the door. seungkwan tugs on your hand to get your attention but you’re lost in your thoughts. it’s raining outside again and you flashback to the first night in his bedroom.
rain pouring down on the windows, the two of you cuddled up. he looked you in the eyes and said he loved you. forever and always. he didn’t mean it.

me or her (or you) part 2
bestfriend!chan x reader x junhui
wc: 463
warnings: angst, comfort, a little fluff
read part 1 here!
masterlist
--
chan knocks lightly on your door and softly calls for you. “it’s me.” he hears you shuffling to the door and then it’s open. you’re standing there, eyes puffy and red, and he has to physically stop himself from finding jun to beat him up.
he steps into your apartment and you don’t even bother closing the door, making your way back to the couch and under your blankets. chan shuts the door behind him and follows you, taking the seat beside you and grabbing the tv remote. the two of you have done this many times, after every breakup you’ve gone through, but this is the first time it’s been one of his closest friends.
he gets under your blanket and you lean your head on his shoulder as one tree hill plays on the tv. back in middle school, you used to make chan watch it with you and he’ll never admit it, but he actually liked it. now it’s your comfort show to watch together and chan knows to turn it on whenever you’re sad.
as you watch, chan wraps his arm around you and you cuddle closer to him. he looks down at you when he hears you sniffle, and he catches you wiping away tears. he turns the volume of the tv down and turns to you.
“hey.” you look up and the smile on his face is so soft that it makes you want to cry more. “do you wanna talk about it?” you nod and move to hug him, muffling your voice against his chest. “i don’t even like him that much, we weren’t together for long. i just...i’m tired of never being the first choice.”
chan wants so badly to tell you how much he loves you, but he knows this isn’t the right time. you’re vulnerable, and he wants to confess when you’re in the right state of mind.
he settles for hugging you back and kissing the top of your head. “i’m sorry. you deserve so much better.” you smile at him through your tears and turn back to the show, keeping your arms around him.
after a few episodes, you’re fast asleep and chan attempts to carry you to your bed without waking you up. he panics when you move around after he sets you down on your mattress but you stay asleep, curling up around a pillow.
he pulls the blanket over you and brushes the hair out of your face. smiling down at your peaceful form, he leaves one last kiss on your forehead before closing your bedroom door. he begins the trek back to his apartment, confident that after you’ve healed from this breakup and you’re over jun, he’s going to show you that you’re always his first choice.

me or her (or you)
junhui x reader x bestfriend!chan
wc: 485
warnings: angst, cursing (one word)
sort of inspired by a tiktok i saw
read part 2 here!!
masterlist
--
you storm out of jun’s room and into the living room, startling him when you speak. “jun.” he widens his eyes when he turns and sees your expression. “yeah babe?” you hold out his phone with the screen faced towards him. “what’s this?” his face pales when he sees the messages open on his screen. “w-what do you mean?”
you roll your eyes and sigh. “you told me you only spoke to your ex once when she told you she was back in town. why is she saying she had fun yesterday?” jun rushes to stand up and you take a step away from him. “we just got some coffee to catch up, it didn’t mean anything.” you scoffed. “i told you i didn’t feel comfortable with you talking to her. you could have at least told me about it.”
the guilty look on his face makes you even more upset. “we’re just friends i promise.” you set his phone down on the counter and cross your arms. “so you wouldn’t stop talking to her even if it makes me uncomfortable?” jun sighs and looks down, shaking his head. “don’t make me pick between you and her.” you feel your eyes fill with tears and your vision starts to blur. “why? because you’d choose her?” a couple tears escape as jun stands there speechless, giving you your answer.
chan and soonyoung, who were sitting on the couch beside jun, start to stand up and back out of the room. “uh..i think we should leave you guys alone for this,” soonyoung says, but you cut him off. “no it’s okay. i’m leaving. we’re done jun.” you brush off jun’s hand as he tries to reach for you, rushing out the door of the apartment and letting your tears fall freely.
chan turns to the boy who just broke your heart. “what the fuck? what do you think you’re doing?” he charges towards jun but soonyoung holds him back. “why would you say that to her?” soonyoung pulls chan out of the room and leaves jun alone with his thoughts.
when soonyoung manages to drag chan out of the apartment, chan pushes him off and fumes at him. “why did you stop me? you saw what he did to her.” soonyoung sighed. “i know, but getting angry at him won’t do anything. you should go comfort the person who actually needs you.” chan finally calms down when soonyoung mentions you. “you’re right.” he starts to leave when he’s stopped by soonyoung’s hand on his shoulder.
“just...be careful. i don’t want you getting hurt either.” chan nods. “i know. i’m just gonna be there as a friend.” soonyoung moves his hand away and chan runs out of the apartment complex, headed towards your place. he knows you don’t see him the way he wants you to but he can’t help but love you, even if it hurts him.

deja vu
jeonghan x reader x minghao
wc: 1.0k
warnings: fluff, a little angst, mystery au at the end (see if you can guess what it is!)
masterlist
--
you yawn as jeonghan lightly shakes you awake. “come on sleepyhead, i made breakfast,” he coos. you stretch your arms and sit up, looking your boyfriend in the eyes. “it’s 9 am hannie, why are we up this early?” he giggles as you slowly get out of bed. “don’t tell me you forgot. today’s wonwoo’s birthday. we have to meet the boys at 11 to get everything set up.” you sigh as you remember the date. “but that’s two hours from now. we could have slept in.” jeonghan leans in to squish your cheeks between his hands as you pout. “well i wanted to spend some extra time with my baby before we had to leave.” you take his hand as he leads you out of the bedroom. “fine,” you laugh, “i guess we can spend time together.”
you opened your eyes and yawned, trying not to wake up the boy behind you. you felt his arm around you tighten as he pulled your back closer to his chest. you startled when you heard his voice. “good morning.” you giggled as you turned around in his arms and pressed a kiss to his cheek. “good morning hao.” he smiled down at you. “what do you wanna do today?” you hummed as you thought for a moment. “how about...you let me make breakfast for you today?” he nodded and kissed your forehead. “whatever you say my love. as long as we’re spending time together.”
your eyes widen when you see the rollercoaster go upside down. jeonghan laughs at your expression and pulls you forward as the line in front of you moves. “we’ll be fine. you like going on rides don’t you?” you sigh as you move your gaze back to him. “well yeah, but not when they go upside down.” jeonghan pouts at you and you know he can get you to do anything with that face. “you’ll love it babe, i promise.”
you rushed towards the biggest ride in the park as soon as you passed the entrance, dragging minghao with you. “are you sure you wanna start with that one?” he asked, looking warily at how high up it is, “we should go on the carousel instead.” you giggled at him. “you just wanna ride the horses, we can do that after. come on, it’ll be fun!” you tugged on his hand and moved towards the line. “fine,” he smiled down at your eager expression, “anything for you.”
“are you serious?” jeonghan angrily pushes the door of your apartment open and you follow behind. “soonyoung was all over you and you didn’t even try to stop him.” you roll your eyes, remembering how the boy was way too drunk to know what he was doing. “i was trying to make sure he was okay hannie. you saw how much he drank.” jeonghan slumps on the couch, jealousy still stirring in his chest. “well i didn’t like seeing him so close to you.” you move to sit next to him, cupping his face and pulling him to face you. “you’re the only one for me han, i love you, not him.” he nods as you squish his cheeks, already softening for you. “i know. i’m sorry i overreacted.” you shake your head as you lean in to hug him. “it’s okay. i want you to talk to me about your feelings, even if they’re bad.” he smiles as he pulls you closer, already forgetting what he was even upset about.
“you’ve got to be kidding me.” minghao walked into the kitchen only to see jun draping his jacket over your shoulders. you refrained from giggling at his serious expression. “why are you wearing his jacket?” cowering as minghao walked closer, jun responded timidly. “she spilled her drink and i was just giving her my jacket to change into...” minghao removed the jacket from your shoulders and shoved it back to jun, leading you out of the kitchen and to the bathroom. “he was just being nice hao, what’s wrong?” he shut the bathroom door and took off his shirt, zipping up the jacket he had on over it. “here. wear this.” you took the shirt and changed out of your wet one. minghao sighed. “i just..don’t like seeing you wearing other guys’ clothes.” you wrapped your hands around his neck and he rested his on your waist. “that’s fine babe. but you were rude to jun.” he rolled his eyes. “yeah yeah, i’ll apologize later.” he leaned in to kiss you but you stopped him with your fingers on his lips, shaking your head. “no kisses till you say sorry.” minghao rolled his eyes and took your hand, pulling a giggling you out of the bathroom to find the older boy and apologize.
jeonghan takes your hand as you carefully step onto the ice. you squeak when you feel yourself slip and jeonghan holds onto you tighter. “hannie,” you whine, “i don’t wanna fall.” he laughs at you struggling to stand still as your skates slip. “don’t worry, i won’t let you fall.” he skates backwards slowly and pulls you along, waiting for you to get the hang of it. after a few rounds on the rink, you feel comfortable gliding along without any help. you watch as jeonghan skates ahead of you and does a spin, winking at you when he lands. even though it’s cold, your heart is warm.
minghao stumbled and you grabbed his free hand, his other hand gripping the side of the rink. “why did i let you convince me to ice skate?” you giggled as he tried to slide forwards. “because it’s a fun experience.” minghao groaned when he slipped again. “falling doesn’t sound very fun.” you skated forward a little faster, pulling him along with you. “i won’t let you fall, trust me.” he smiled at your eager expression and let go of the wall. as the two of you skated around the rink, he would trip every now and then, but he never let go of your hand.
somewhere in the clouds, two beings watch as jeonghan twirls you around on the ice. “it didn’t work. she still remembers,” one of them says. the other one sighs as he looks down at you. “it’s fine. we won’t mess up next time.”

22
chan x gn reader
part of my seventeen x taylor swift series!
wc: 1.2k
warnings: fluff, drinking, partying
would recommend listening to 22 by taylor swift while reading!
this has been a rough week and i hope everyone is doing okay. feel free to send an ask or request about anything, i’m here if anyone wants to talk!
masterlist
--
you push through the people gathered in the crowded living room, making your way towards the kitchen. the SVT frat had thrown one of their usual ragers, but the only reason you had stayed this long was because it was your best friend’s birthday. as he was the youngest in the frat, the older members loved chan like their own kid, so of course they would throw a huge party for him to celebrate. you were also here to take your mind off the midterm exams that were coming up in a few weeks.
finally reaching the kitchen, you spot chan, jun and soonyoung chatting by the fridge. you switch out your empty red cup for a seltzer can and walk over to join them. soonyoung perks up when he sees you. “hey! chan was just wondering where you were.” you laughed and took a sip of your drink. “i got caught up in the crowd on my way back from the bathroom.” jun looked between you and chan, noticing how chan’s attention was now diverted towards you, their previous conversation forgotten. “hey soonyoung, let’s go dance.” not waiting for his response, jun takes soonyoung’s arm and drags him out of the kitchen.
smiling at you, chan leans against the counter. “are you having fun?” you giggle, feeling the effects of the vodka you had earlier. “shouldn’t i be asking you that, birthday boy? how’s being 22?” chan sighs and looks down at his drink. “feels about the same as 21.” he looks back up at you and he can tell you’re overthinking something. “what is it?” you shake your head. “it’s nothing, just thinking about how fast time is going. i mean, you’re already 22 and i’m turning 21 this year and it feels like we’re growing up too fast and soon we’ll be in our 30s and-“ chan puts his hand on your arm and stops you from rambling.
“hey. it’s okay, we’ll be okay. no matter how old we get, it’ll be alright as long as we have each other.” you give him your best reassuring smile and nod. “you’re right. enough of that, let’s go have fun! it’s your birthday, what do you wanna do now?” chan thinks for a few moments before responding. “take a shot with me!” you agree, and he grabs the tequila bottle and two glasses, filling them up and giving himself a little more than you. you clink your glasses together before you both down the shots, wincing at the burn going down your throat. he takes your glass from you and sets both of them on the counter, taking your hand. “come on, let’s go join jun and soonyoung on the dance floor.” you let him lead you out of the kitchen, and you let the buzz from the alcohol take over your thoughts.
after a while on the dance floor, you and chan collapse onto the couch next to wonwoo and minghao, exhausted and exhilarated. feeling drunk, you take a moment to look at your best friend. he’s dressed casually in a sweater and jeans, glasses on his face and ring on his finger that’s identical to the ones his frat brothers have. you feel your chest get warmer as you take in his appearance, focusing on how handsome he really is. 
you quickly snap out of your daze and giggle, making him look down at you and scrunch his face. “what’s so funny?” you shake your head. “your glasses just look funny,” you reply, refraining from blurting out how cute they look on him. chan lets out a scoff and looks back out towards the dance floor, his eyes landing on someone. “you know what does look funny, your ex trying to challenge soonyoung to a dance off.” you laugh as you see mingyu doing his chaotic dance moves.
mingyu was one of chan’s frat brothers. the two of you had a lot in common, as you were both film majors, and you had gotten along really well. mingyu had asked you out at the beginning of sophomore year and you had said yes, wanting to take the opportunity to fall for someone other than chan. mingyu was nice, and very good looking, but he wasn’t chan. after a few weeks of going out, you and mingyu decided to end it when you told him about your feelings for your best friend. there were no hard feelings, and mingyu had even encouraged you to confess to chan. you couldn’t find the courage though, and just told chan that you and mingyu were better as friends.
as you watch the tallest boy’s antics, chan turns back to you. “you know, you never really told me why you guys broke up.” eyes widening at him bringing it up suddenly, you pause. “..we just weren’t meant to be.” you move your gaze away from chan and he takes the hint to change the topic. “do you wanna go get some ice cream now? we could sit on the hill and look at the stars like we used to in middle school.” you smile, remembering the two of you at age 12 and 13, trying to learn all of the constellations and their stories. you nod and chan takes your hand, pulling you up and leading the way out of the crowded frat house.
after getting ice cream bars from the convenience store, the two of you sit on top of the hill in the middle of the park, enjoying the view of the night sky. it’s already 5 am, and you know it’s gonna be one of those nights where you don’t get any sleep. still, it’s worth it to spend time with chan, especially on his birthday. the two of you sit in silence, your thoughts on the earlier conversation about mingyu.
“i lied to you.” chan jerks his head to face you when you break the silence. “what do you mean?” you sigh and keep your eyes on the sky. “when i said there wasn’t a reason i broke up with mingyu. i lied. there was a reason.” chan looks at you, concerned. “what was it?” you steel your nerves and look chan in the eyes.
“i broke up with him because he wasn’t you. because i’ve been in love with you for as long as i can remember. and even if you never feel the same, that won’t change.”
you quickly turn away, not wanting to see his reaction but he keeps looking at you, the stars reflected in his eyes. “hey.” he places his index finger under your chin and turns you to face him again. “how could you ever think that i don’t love you? you’re everything to me. i want you beside me for every birthday i have.”
he takes your hand and you look back at the stars, worried about the future. “but what if-“ he cuts you off. “everything will be alright, we’ll be alright, as long as you keep me next to you.” he wraps an arm around you and you lie down, letting him cuddle you as you both watch the stars move slowly across the sky and the sun eventually make its way above the horizon.

his hand on your waist, wonwoo guides you through the crowded ballroom. you hear whispers from the people around you, and you tense even though there’s no way they could know. when you make it out of the room and into the hallway, wonwoo looks around to make sure no one can hear before speaking. “are you ready?” you take a deep breath before nodding. he eyes the guards standing at the doors.
“i’ll be there at midnight. make sure no one sees you.” you nod again. “they won’t,” you respond softly. he looks down at you and there’s concern swimming in his eyes. “you’re absolutely sure you want to do this?” you give him a small smile. “i’m sure.” he glances at your surroundings again. “okay. be careful.” he heads back into the ballroom and you watch him, wondering if this is the last time you’ll see him in a suit. 
you peek outside of your door and see the night guard asleep at his post. you’ve packed a bag with only a few clothes, leaving behind all of your gowns and tiaras. you tiptoe out of your room and make your way to the stairs at the back of the palace. when you reach the garden, you see wonwoo standing by the fountain. he lets out a breath of relief when he sees you and takes your hand. “let’s go. i know a place we can stay for the night before we leave.” you let him lead you away from the palace grounds and towards a cart pulled by two horses. 
there’s a man at the reigns, and you pause before wonwoo explains who he is. “this is seungcheol, he lives on the outskirts of town and he’ll be able to hide us if they come looking.” you return the smile seungcheol gives you and wonwoo helps you into the cart. when both of you are seated, seungcheol gets the horses moving and you clutch wonwoo’s hand, exhilarated and ready to start your new life as you ride into the dark.
wonwoo had been your tutor back at the palace. as the youngest child of the king, you had no responsibilities for the kingdom except to be married off to a prince to secure an alliance. you had been trained your whole life to be a good spouse to a king, and your older brother vernon had barely been able to convince the king and queen to let you take lessons. they had found wonwoo working part-time at the school in town, and as the son of the town librarian, he was perfect in their eyes to teach you.
you had been interested in wonwoo from the moment you met, but you knew you couldn’t pursue it. your parents had been talking to you about your options for marriage, but you weren’t interested in prince mingyu from the kingdom to the south or prince jeonghan from the kingdom to the north, even if you didn’t have a choice. still, wonwoo managed to break his way into the walls around your heart, with his passion for literature and the way he would look at you while reading poems with themes of love. 
you had first kissed him three months after your lessons started. he was explaining the meaning of one of shakespeare’s sonnets, but you weren’t listening, eyes busy tracing the shadows of the tree across his face. the two of you sitting on the bench next to the fountain, you scooted closer to him and he stopped his lecture, looking up when he noticed how close you were. without a word, you kissed him. shocked, he had dropped his book, but he quickly responded to the kiss and cupped your face in his hands. you still remember how tenderly he held you, and the look in his eyes made you want to drop everything and run away with him.
you enjoyed the thrill of sneaking around with him for a few months, blissfully in love, until your parents called you into the throne room one night. “we’re having a ball in two weeks. there will be 5 princes there and by the next day, you will tell us who you’ve picked to marry.” shocked, you stared up at your father. “what?” he stood up from his throne and you knew there was no arguing. “you will pick one of them, or we will pick for you.” you looked down at your feet. “yes father.”
when you told wonwoo, he simply looked at you, gaze unreadable. “i love you. but you’re set to marry someone else. there’s nothing we can do about that.” you grabbed his hands and blurted out the first idea you had. “what if we ran away together?” he was taken aback at first, not wanting you to risk your life just to be with him. “i love you wonwoo, and i don’t want to marry some prince i’ve never met. for me it’s always you. i want to be with you,” you pleaded with him. he eventually agreed and you came up with the plan to leave after the ball when everyone was asleep.
at the ball, you had danced with the visiting princes like your parents wanted you to. they were nice, but they weren’t him. right before wonwoo had pulled you aside to speak to you, vernon had asked you for a dance. as you waltzed around the room, your brother spoke. “i know you’re leaving tonight.” startled, you tried to deny it. “it’s okay, i’m not gonna stop you. i just want you to be sure.” you looked into your brother’s worried eyes and stopped dancing to hug him. “i’m sure. but i’m really gonna miss you.” he squeezed you in his arms like he used to when you were kids. “i’m gonna miss you too kiddo. but i know wonwoo will take good care of you.”
when you make it to seungcheol’s tavern, he explains that the two of you can stay in the back room until the morning. “there are two horses on the other side of the fence that you can take. i also have enough food to last you the trip to wonwoo’s cousin’s place.” you thank seungcheol profusely and he simply waves you off, saying he owes wonwoo anyways.
right at dawn, you and wonwoo leave, waving seungcheol goodbye as you ride away on the horses. you head west towards the coast, your destination the beach house of wonwoo’s cousin soonyoung. it takes you a day and a half, the night spent curled up in a makeshift tent, huddling together for warmth. 
at soonyoung’s house, you let yourself relax, knowing there’s no way your parents will find you here. you sit on the balcony with a cup of tea, wonwoo reading in the chair next to you. you turn and watch your lover, smiling when he looks up at you. “what are you thinking about?” he asks, reaching out to take your hand. “do you think they’ll ever find us?” he lets out a chuckle. “we won’t be found. they’ll be chasing their tails trying to track us down.” you grin as he pulls you up and leads you down to the sand, where the two of you stand and watch the waves crash against the shore. “like you said, for me it’s always you. we’ll be okay.”

01.
the room is dark and the only sources of light are the glowsticks on everyone’s wrists. you stand off to the side, merely a spectator. feeling the heat of someone’s gaze, you turn and make eye contact with him. he looks away after a moment, and then he’s gone. time goes by fast and you’re stuck replaying the moment in your head.
02.
you’re sitting at the counter of joshua’s coffee shop, watching him make drinks while you fiddle with the straw of your iced coffee. the bells on the door jingle, but you don’t look up until you feel someone sit on the stool beside you. you meet eyes and it’s him. you tell him your name and he tells you to call him soonyoung. you point out the missing button on his winter coat and he cracks a joke to make you smile. it’s only the beginning, but it’s enough for you to know.
03.
he drives down the barely lit street and you sip on the caramel latte he bought for you. it’s midnight, and the moon shines down as you reach the hill and step out of the car. a blanket on the ground, he tells you to look up at the stars and you do, feeling your shoulders brush as he shows you the constellations. your eyes are on the stars and his eyes are on the stars’ reflection in the necklace he bought you for your birthday. 
04.
you wake up to the smell of burnt toast. he keeps his promise of breakfast in bed and you keep his shirt. you let yourself trust him and he lets himself open up to you. you kiss him goodbye on the sidewalk outside your apartment and he pauses to tell you that you’re his best friend.
05.
you fight. he fights for you. he wakes up in the middle of the night and tells you he can’t lose you and you tell him he won’t. he says you make him understand why people lose their minds. he says he’d lose his mind without you.
06.
you visit him at work and there’s a picture of you under the cherry blossoms sitting on his desk. he takes you out for dinner and you drag him to the park to watch the snow. he spins you around as you dance, snowflakes catching on his eyelashes and on your nose. you understand why people spend their whole lives trying to put it into words.
07.
you can’t put it into words. but you hear it in the silence when it’s just the two of you in bed and it feels like the world has stopped. you feel it on the way home when he doesn’t let go of your hand even as you leave the car and go inside. you can see it even when the room is dark and the only source of light is the moonlight sparkling in his eyes. you are in love.
