Part Five:
It turned out you were right. Thirteen boys couldn’t lie to you. Just one. You went to each and every boy in Alpha Mu. Random questions about random nights, and you realized that there was no reason for them to lie to you about this. They knew Jeonghan better than anyone other than you assumed his own family.
If Jeonghan was sleeping with other people and was willing to tell you about it than the others would know that. What they wouldn’t know was that Jeonghan would lie to you about sleeping with other people because that would be crazy.
You didn’t get it.
Why did he think that you would care about him sleeping with other people? You two weren’t exclusive. He had made that abundantly clear, and you had made it abundantly clear that you didn’t mind your arrangement.
You stared at your black television screen; your legs crossed on your couch. Your lips were pursed in thought but no matter how long you sat there it didn’t make any sense. Who the fuck would lie about that?
Thirty minutes into your silent pondering the front door opened. You didn’t look over, but you didn’t have to. Moments after the door closed you felt someone join you on the couch.
You and Jeongyeon were silent for a while.
“I...” Jeongyeon finally broke the silence. “I talked to Jimin.”
Your eyes widened and you looked over at her.
“Yeah?”
“Yeah,” Jeongyeon replied. For a scary moment she was silent, just staring at the television like you had before. Then the smallest hint of a smile crossed her lips. “We’re going on a date. A proper date!”
Jeongyeon squealed, covering her face with her hand.
“I literally can’t believe it!” She exclaimed. “I mean... After all these years, I never thought...”
She trailed off shaking her head.
“You know, it was killing me not to tell you about how I was beginning to feel about Jimin. When I realized that I was looking forward to waking up next to him-”
“I could tell you wanted a relationship,” you agreed softly. “But with Jimin? I’d never imagined it.”
“He’s so nice y/n. It started off slowly, at first it was disgruntled kicking me out, both of us completely disgusted by what we had just done but as it kept happening... I looked forward to it. He started being nicer, gentler... I was happy to wake up next to him.”
You were happy for Jeongyeon- You really were, but as she was talking you were beginning to realize something. Your eyebrows furrowed uncertainly, and Jeongyeon seemed to notice. She frowned.
“What’s wrong?” She asked. Your eyes trailed down to your lap.
“I’m just... Confused.”
Jeongyeon reached forward, her hands taking yours.
“What about?” She prodded.
“Jeonghan.... Lied to me about sleeping with other girls.”
Pity crossed Jeongyeon’s eyes, and she squeezed your hands.
“Hey, look he isn’t worth shit if he’s going to cheat on you.”
“That’s the thing!” You emphasized. “We agreed that he could sleep with other people, remember? That never changed between us. I don’t care if he sleeps with other people. We’re fuck buddies! That’s what fuck buddies do when they aren’t exclusive.”
“Then why did he feel the need to lie to you?” Jeongyeon asked, her confusion matching your own.
“You don’t even understand yet- He didn’t lie telling me he wasn’t sleeping with other girls. He lied telling me he was sleeping with other girls.”
Jeongyeon pulled her hands away from yours, her mouth slightly ajar and her eyebrows scrunched together.
“What?” She blurted out.
“See, Yeongtae and I were talking, and he pointed out that Jeonghan is really possessive of me. Which I had noticed, and you know...”
“Hot,” Jeongyeon agreed. “That’s part of why I fell for Jimin. Another guy was flirting with me at a party and... Well...”
You nodded.
“Right, so he pointed out that he’s possessive but I kinda just thought it was a bit. Foreplay.” You paused. “And hatred for Yeongtae, of course.”
“Of course,” Jeongyeon agreed.
“But the longer I think about it. We don’t really act like fuck buddies.”
“How do you mean?” Jeongyeon asked.
“Like... I stay and eat breakfast with him, and the other Alpha Mu boys and he always makes sure I stay the night. Gives me better aftercare than anyone I’ve ever been with before. I helped him build a lego set the other day. That’s just. Friend behavior.”
“Friends with benefits behavior,” Jeongyeon pipped up. “But non-exclusive friends with benefits.”
“Right. Except that now I come to find out we are exclusive.”
You shook your head.
“Soonyoung told me that Jeonghan hasn’t slept with anyone since the second time that we fucked.”
“You don’t think... That he has feelings for you, do you?”
“I didn’t!” You insisted. “But now...?”
“The man who doesn’t sleep with anyone twice,” Jeongyeon said, her voice airy. “I mean if he actually is into you. What are you going to do about it?”
“I don’t know!” You replied. “I mean... He’s Yoon Jeonghan.”
“Yeah...” Jeongyeon agreed, a small cocky smile crossing her lips. “But he’s Yoon Jeonghan. Everyone is practically begging to date him. And if he’s willing to settle down for you? You’d be dumb not too.”
“You think?” You asked, your eyes looking away from her.
“Yeah,” she agreed. “And he’s really nice to you. He clearly cares for you in a way. Even if it isn’t actually those feelings yet.”
“This is stupid,” you said, immediately waving away the thought. “Now, I can’t explain Jeonghan’s behavior but there’s no way that he actually likes me.” You needed a conversation change. “Let’s focus on what we do know. You and Jimin!”
The smile grew back on Jeongyeon’s face.
“I hope that you can skip your morning class tomorrow because I could talk about this all night!” She exclaimed excitedly.
A smile cracked across your face.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
-
“No y/n today?”
Jeonghan glanced up from his phone while he walked into the kitchen, finding only Seungcheol standing there, leaning against the counter.
“Hm? No.”
“Weird. She hasn’t been over in a few days. Have you been seeing her?”
“She’s busy,” Jeonghan replied. “Studying with Yeongtae.”
A small crack echoed through the small room. Both Jeonghan and Seungcheol looked at the now broken wooden chopstick in Jeonghan’s hand. He cleared his throat, setting the pieces on the table.
“Besides, we don’t need to hang out all the time. That’s not really what our relationship is.”
“Right,” Seungcheol said. He let silence fall between the two for a little bit and then: “You know, y/n called me the other night.”
Jeonghan perked up at the information, but it wasn’t in excitement.
“What? Why?”
“She asked me about what girls you were sleeping with.”
Jeonghan looked away from Seungcheol, cursing under his breath and burying his face in his hands.
“Fuck, why would she-” He groaned loudly. “And let me guess-”
“Why does she think that you are fucking other people? Aren’t you exclusive?”
“Technically, it’s one-sided. She’s made it very clear that she had agreed to not sleep with other people, but I was free to.”
Seungcheol’s confusion didn’t have to be outwardly expressed. Jeonghan could feel it.
“Who would-” He shook his head. “I’ve got to stop questioning the things that y/n lets you do to her. Just... So why would she care if you were sleeping with other people if she agreed to those terms?”
“Maybe because...” Jeonghan cleared his throat uncertainly, risking a look at his friend. “Perhaps I told her I was sleeping with other people.”
Seungcheol gave Jeonghan a blank stare.
“But you’re not.”
Jeonghan nodded.
“But I’m not.”
Seungcheol stared at Jeonghan silently, and then, after a few moments turned away from him, placing both of his hands on the kitchen counter and sighing heavily.
He began to mutter under his breath, but it wasn’t quiet enough for Jeonghan not to make out the: “How am I the one that is single in this house? I’m the only one with fucking-”
Seungcheol turned back around, forcing a smile on his lips.
“Why would you lie to y/n and tell her that you are sleeping with other people?”
Jeonghan’s eyebrows furrowed.
“Why does it matter?” Jeonghan demanded. “I’m allowed to lie to her if I want to. It’s a harmless lie.”
“It’s still a lie.”
Jeonghan exhaled loudly out of his nose.
“What does it matter?”
“Jeonghan, where do you see this thing with y/n going?”
“That’s a stupid question,” Jeonghan said.
Seungcheol walked over to the table, pulling out the chair next to Jeonghan and sitting in it. He fixed Jeonghan under a stern gaze.
“Do you like y/n?”
Jeonghan scoffed at first, his eyes turning away from Seungcheol.
“Do I like y/n? Jesus Seungcheol, do you know me at all?” He looked back at Seungcheol. “I’m Yoon Jeonghan.”
“Yeah,” Seungcheol agreed. “Yoon Jeonghan who fucks everything that walks and unabashedly kicks them out every morning. Yoon Jeonghan who does not fuck anyone twice- Hell you barely interact with the people you’ve fucked before.”
Before Jeonghan could say anything Seungcheol continued:
“And then you sleep with y/n. You sleep with... What? Two girls after her and then it’s back to her. You’re so bipolar about this! The first night you slept with her you were definitely open to fucking her again, and then you got all aloof and then you slept with her a second time and all of a sudden you are saying we should get used to her-”
“That’s-”
“I’m not finished,” Seungcheol interrupted. “Don’t even get me started on your borderline obsession with Yeongtae. You think I don’t notice you asking about him to anyone who will listen? Your phone is open to his instragram page right now!”
“He’s a weird guy!” Jeonghan protested.
“You are jealous,” Seungcheol said. “You are jealous, and you miss her when she doesn’t come to parties, and you even let her mess with legos with you. You practically beg her to stay every morning.”
“What are you trying to say?” Jeonghan asked angrily, not afraid to express that this conversation was not one he wanted to be a part of. Seungcheol, however, was not fazed by his murderous tone.
“Just admit it!” Seungcheol replied. “I don’t have to tell you your feelings. You know what I’m trying to say.”
“I have nothing to admit.” The two of them were screaming at one another now. The top of their lungs, neither of them backing down.
“If y/n were to call you right now and tell you she was dating Yeongtae and wanted to cut things off, what would you do?”
“Nothing! We aren’t dating. She’s allowed to do what she wants. If she wants to date Yeongtae she can.”
“Liar.”
“I’m not lying!”
“You love y/n,” Seungcheol accused. “You love her and that’s why you hate when she hangs out with Yeongtae because while you two connect on a sexual level you are worried that you two won’t connect on a personal level, and Yeongtae and her do and you think that she’s going to leave you for him.”
“Shut up.”
“And if you keep this up? She will leave you,” Seungcheol said. “Are you really going to just let her slip away?”
“She’s not going to slip away!” Jeonghan hissed, slamming his hands down on the table. “You want the truth? Yes, I fucking love her. And I am jealous of her and Yeongtae. Why doesn’t she spend that time with me? I practically have to force her to have breakfast with us every day! She always has something else to do. I’m fucking Yoon Jeonghan why doesn’t she want me?”
Silence fell between the two, both of their chests heaving. They both stared at each other. Seungcheol looking pleased but also distressed for Jeonghan. As the two stood there, someone cleared their throat. Both boys turned to see that Seokmin was walking into the kitchen.
“What was that?” Seokmin asked. “Oh, yeah, my favorite way to wake up in the morning is to you two screaming about Jeonghan’s obvious feelings for y/n.”
Jeonghan rolled his eyes, and briskly scooted back his chair back, the sound screeching throughout the house.
“Fuck off.”
Jeonghan stormed out of the kitchen, brushing past Minghao as he walked.
“Good morning to you too,” he said softly.
Jeonghan completely ignored him.
“I’m going to get some air.”
And just like that, he stormed out of the house.
-
You were startled away from your homework by a sudden knock at your door. Your eyebrows furrowed and you glanced at your phone. It was early. Jeongyeon was at class. You weren’t expecting Yeongtae today.
You cracked open your door, and standing in the hall, red in the face and breathless was Jeonghan. Your eyes widened.
“Jeonghan-”
“Did you even check before opening the door? Anyone could have been out here.”
“I-”
Jeonghan raised his hand in front of your face.
“I’m not going to lie to you right now: I am fucking furious,” Jeonghan said. “I know it’s early, and we haven’t seen each other in a few days but this is your first chance to back out. What is our safe word?”
You were surprised but... Always down to be fucked by Jeonghan. You were quick to say your safe word, taking a step back into the room and pushing the door slightly open for Jeonghan. His jaw clenched at the clear invitation.
“If I come into that apartment-”
“Do whatever you want to,” you replied. You pushed aside the uncertainty in the pit of your stomach, completely ignoring the part of you that was desperate to know why Jeonghan had lied to you about sleeping with other girls. “I’m yours.”
Jeonghan was in the room with the door closed behind him in a blink of an eye. He locked the door and began to rip his shirt off of his body. You were momentarily distracted... God, Jeonghan was like a walking fucking Adonis but you were snapped back to reality by Jeonghan saying: “Don’t just fucking stand there. Get your clothes off.”
You quickly locked the door behind you and began to strip yourself of your clothes but you weren’t fast enough. Jeonghan pushed you roughly against the wall and dragged your shirt off of you. As soon as it was tossed aside his lips were pressed to yours.
Jeonghan’s hands were quick to unfasten your bra, and you let it fall off of your shoulders and onto the ground between you two. Jeonghan pulled away from you, narrowing his eyes at you.
“You remembered what I told you? That day in the bathroom?” He asked. You didn’t need him to elaborate.
“You said you’d remind me of how depraved I was,” you replied breathlessly. Jeonghan’s lips flickered into a smile.
“That’s one thing about you,” he murmured. “You are a good listener.”
He stepped away from you and as he walked back his eyes trailed over your body. You swallowed hard.
“Crawl,” Jeonghan said. It snapped your attention back to Jeonghan, your eyelids fluttering.
“What?”
“I said to crawl,” Jeonghan repeated. Your mouth fell open and you quickly dropped down to your hands and knees. Your face blazed in embarrassment as you began to crawl towards Jeonghan but it just made Jeonghan laugh, his head tilting to the side in what seemed to be adoration. “So good for me.”
When you got to his feet, he kneeled down in front of you, placing a single finger to your forehead.
“Have you been good recently?” He asked you. It felt like a trick question, and you had no clue what the answer was.
“… Yes?”
He slapped you, making you gasp in surprise. He stood up and began to walk backwards again.
“Crawl.”
You did as you were told, and as you followed him, he started to talk again.
“You haven’t been good recently. You know why?”
You shook your head quickly. He scoffed.
“Because I had to fuck you twice in two separate bathrooms,” Jeonghan replied, his voice sharp. “You haven’t been over, you haven’t invited me over and I had to settle for fucking you in bathrooms.”
He turned around.
“Where’s your room?” He asked. You cleared your throat.
“It’s uh, the last door on the right.”
Without another word Jeonghan walked down the hallway, disappearing into your room. You stayed there for a second, on your hands and knees, wondering what he wanted you to do. You decided to just keep crawling.
That ended up being the right decision. When you got to your room Jeonghan was sitting on your bed, his legs spread and his head rested on his arm. He looked annoyed.
“Taking your fucking time, aren’t you?” He mumbled.
“Sorry,” you murmured. You crawled all the way up to him, settling yourself between his legs. Once you had sat back on your feet Jeonghan’s hand was on your chin.
“Open your mouth,” he said. You opened it and he suddenly stuck two of his fingers in your mouth. Surprised by the action you gagged, your head dropping forward. Jeonghan chided you softly.
“If you can’t even handle my fingers, how could you possibly handle my cock?” he asked you, his voice high and mocking. Your eyes widened at the tone, his words going straight to your core.
“I can handle-“ You were interrupted by a slap, and this time Jeonghan grabbed your chin with it. He looked at you with hooded eyes.
“I didn’t say you could talk now did I?” He asked. You shook your head obediently. His lips curled up into a smile. “There’s my good girl.”
He turned his eyes away from yours as he went to rummage through his things. You frowned, unsure of what he was doing, but you were glad he looked away because your face was burning red at the compliment.
It was ridiculous how much a tiny bit of praise could really send you over the top when it came from Jeonghan.
“I want to propose something,” Jeonghan said. Your eyes darted to where he had just grabbed something. He flashed a camera at you.
“How do you feel about being a star?”
Realization flooded your body as you realized what he was asking. Your mind raced to come up with an answer. This wouldn’t be the most public thing that you would be letting Jeonghan do, but it would be the most permanent thing you let him do.
You had never before let a fling take a video of you or a picture of you in any intimate way. At least, not since you were able to make rational decisions and remembered that you really had to trust someone before sending them those kinds of pictures of yourself.
Your hesitance wasn’t missed in Jeonghan. He nodded and started to put his phone away.
“That’s okay you don’t need to-” You reached out suddenly, grabbing his wrist. His eyes widened slightly at the sudden touch. You quickly searched his eyes, your mind running fast to figure out what you wanted to say.
“No, I just had to think about it for a second,” you replied. “I trust you. Go ahead.”
You let go of his wrist.
“Why do you want it anyway?” You asked, your tone lightly. He searched your eyes for a second, and then tilted his head, raising the phone camera to his face.
“I want you to see what you look like when you’re groveling at my feet,” Jeonghan replied, his voice low. “You’ll see what a good little slut you are.”
As Jeonghan spoke one of his hands left his phone and he buried his fingers in your hair.
“What do you do when you want me to stop?” Your eyes had drifted to Jeonghan’s dick, your mouth, embarrassingly enough drooling at the sight of it. It had been such a long time since he had decided to use your mouth. “Y/n.”
He tugged your head up sharply, and your eyes darted up. You quickly thought back on his words while you had been distracted and raised your hand to his thigh, tapping it twice. You gave him an apologetic expression, but his expression didn’t change.
“You’ve been bad about listening to me recently,” he commented lightly. “You’re so used to reward, and so spoiled that you think you can act up.”
You wanted to argue with him but as soon as your eyes fluttered back down he was tugging your head up more.
“Keep your eyes on the camera,” he said sternly. “Now tell the camera: Have you been spoiled recently?”
Your eyes peered into the camera lens, your face surely dark from a combination of anticipation, lust, and slight embarrassment.
“I’ve been spoiled,” you agreed. Jeonghan hummed.
“You started taking my dick for granted, didn’t you?” You nodded your agreement, fighting the urge to look at Jeonghan. “You’re going to have to earn your orgasm today.”
You couldn’t help it, your eyes shot to Jeonghan in surprise, and as soon as they did you felt yourself get hit in the face. This time it wasn’t by his hands. Your eyes widened further when you realized that his hand had left your hair and was now wrapped around the base of his cock.
Heat rushed through your body when you realized that he had hit you with his cock.
Your eyes darted back to the camera.
“I’m sorry,” you said, you glanced back at Jeonghan. “I’m so sorry, I’ll be good.” And then your eyes returned to the camera.
A hum left Jeonghan’s mouth, but he didn’t dwell too much on the fact that you were having trouble listening. Deep in the back of your mind you thought that Jeonghan couldn’t blame you for being so distracted. You wanted to be good but how could you be good when it had been so long since Jeonghan had touched you like this?
As these thoughts ran through your mind, Jeonghan’s hand returned back to your hair.
“Mouth open,” he commanded. Your mouth dropped open and Jeonghan quickly pushed your head down on his cock. You choked a little at the sudden intrusion, feeling your gag reflex go off even as you tried to push away the feeling. Jeonghan scoffed.
“You can’t even take my dick the way you usually can,” he chided. “You are usually so good at not choking, is it too big for you love?”
Your face burned as you focused hard on breathing through your nose. You made sure to keep your eyes on the camera, feeling ease fall over you when you stopped feeling the need to gag after each and every thrust.
The longer Jeonghan forced your head up and down the length of his cock, the more his taunting tone turned airy. He stopped talking in favor of moans tumbling from his mouth, but his relentlessness did not end. He began to essentially fuck your face faster and faster the longer that he went.
“Your mouth is so wet and hot,” Jeonghan said gruffly. Your eyes flitted towards him only to find that his eyes were shut in pleasure. “It’s almost as good as your pussy.”
He moaned at the mere mention of your pussy.
“I’m not interested in foreplay today; I need to fucking destroy you. You better get yourself ready.”
Your eyes shot back to the camera, realizing that you probably did not have much time to get yourself ready. Your hand lowered to your pussy, which was, of course, dripping wet. You pushed two of your fingers right into yourself with ease, wasting no time in matching Jeonghan’s pace.
It was getting a lot harder to keep your focus on the camera as Jeonghan started to move your head up and down faster on his cock. You could feel his cock twitch inside of your mouth, and by the way that his fingers were tightening their grip in your hair you knew that Jeonghan was getting close to having his first orgasm of the night. You pushed a third finger into yourself quickly, ignoring the burn as you began to also suck on his cock more, hoping to bring him closer, faster, like you thought he wanted.
“I’m going to cum in your perfect little mouth, and I want you to capture all of the cum. I better not see a single drop spilled.”
You moaned around Jeonghan’s cock, excitement buzzing through your body as Jeonghan got closer to his orgasm. You only had to wait a few more pumps before Jeonghan’s cum started to fill your mouth. He pulled his cock out enough so that it was really just his tip in your mouth as he began to come.
“Don’t swallow it either.”
His hand left your hair, and then suddenly he pulled himself out of your mouth. You opened your mouth to protest but then a little bit of cum dripped from your mouth and you slammed it shut. Jeonghan didn’t seem to be bothered. He instead gave his cock a few pumps as he painted your face with the rest of his cum, and once he had finally stopped you got slapped hard.
“Didn’t I tell you not to get any cum on your face?” He snapped. Your eyes shot to his in apology but that apparently wasn’t the right move either. “And you’re not even looking at the camera.”
Your eyes shot back to the camera just in time for Jeonghan’s fingers to bury in your hair again and he forced your head back.
“Say thank you for the cum with it still in your mouth,” he commanded. You were quick to comply.
“Thank you for the cum,” you said.
“Louder.”
“Thank you for the cum,” you repeated, much louder this time. Jeonghan hummed, looking at you from behind the camera screen. After a few seconds of just staring at you he set the phone aside and pulled you up by the strands of your hair. He pushed you onto the bed, your ass sticking out over the edge and grabbed you by the hips to pull you up against his pelvis, pushing his cock into you without warning.
You cried out in surprise and more cum dripped out of your mouth, so you slammed your hand over it, feeling your already wet fingers smear his cum over your cheeks.
Jeonghan snickered.
“Trying so hard to be good now aren’t you?” He asked. “You scared you’re going to lose your orgasm?”
Jeonghan pushed deep into you, hard again without warning, jostling your whole body and making you fall awkwardly on your face. You quickly tried to steady yourself but then he pushed into you hard again and you found yourself back in the same position.
Jeonghan seemed to be annoyed by how you were jostling because he made a sound that resembled  that of a growl and pushed your head down into the comforter.
“Stop moving.”
Now that you were steady under Jeonghan he began to really lose control. You hadn’t thought it was possible for Jeonghan to fuck you any harder than he had in the past but you had been ridiculously wrong. With each thrust you were fighting screaming, the only thing keeping you any semblance of quiet being the fact that he hadn’t told you yet that you could swallow the cum you were still holding in your mouth.
Jeonghan was bouncing your entire body with his thrust, your bed creaking with each movement. After a while of literally pounding you his hand left your head, and he grabbed you by your forearms. You were lifted off of the bed, your back arched as Jeonghan fucked himself even deeper inside of you.
“I want to hear you,” he snapped gruffly. You didn’t have to be told more than once. You opened your mouth, both loud moans and cum coming out of it as you did so. You ignored as the cum and spit soaked your chin, dripping down your body and onto the bed.
Jeonghan didn’t pay much mind to it at all either. In fact, his hands quickly switched their position so that he was holding you up by your throat.
His hands were cutting off your air circulation just enough that it was making pleasure swirl even more aggressively in your head.
Without any warning at all, you suddenly felt Jeonghan begin to come deep inside of you, his hips stuttering a little as he began to unload himself in you.
“Fuck, thank you Jeonghan. Thank you,” you cried out, earning yourself a slap.
“Shut up,” Jeonghan mumbled, but you could hear the smile in his voice as he said it.
You felt your own orgasm starting to come up but you desperately fought against it, recognizing that Jeonghan had not told you that you could cum yet.
Jeonghan didn’t stop fucking you even after he had finished coming inside of you. Instead, he briefly pulled out of you to flip you onto your back, and pushed right back into you. His cock somehow already hard again as he began to drill into you from there.
“Do you want to cum?” He asked you. You pressed your lips together and nodded eagerly. He hummed, his thumb running over your cum and spit-soaked chin. “Do you think you’ve earned it?”
Your body was burning, and him talking to you like this wasn’t making it any easier to hold off your orgasm, but regardless you had to be honest.
“No,” you admitted. “But I’ve been better than others haven’t I? I always take your cock just the way you want it, and I’m so good at taking your cum.”
Jeonghan nodded, his eyes flickering down to your lips.
“You like being my little cum dumpster? You like it when I fuck my cum deep inside of you?”
“Yes Jeonghan, fuck yes. I need it, I need your cum so badly,” you agreed, your tone getting lighter, more desperate. “I need you so badly Jeonghan, all the time. I want you to use me more.”
“Yeah? You like this way too much for the average person,” he chided. His fingers pinched at the corners of your mouth, forcing your jaw open. He spit in your mouth and then let go. You swallowed it without a second thought.
“Thank you,” you blurted out. Jeonghan’s head fell to the side.
“For what?” He asked, but as he did he lowered his hands to your waist, forcing himself into you faster.
“For everything,” you cried out. “For fucking me, for coming in me, for coming on me. For all of it. For your spit. Thank you.”
 Jeonghan’s hips stuttered against you.
“Fuck, y/n,” he said, sounding absolutely wrecked. Suddenly he wrapped one of his arms around you, lifting you off the bed a bit so that he could bury his face in your neck while he fucked you. You felt him bite down on your neck, sucking a hickey into it just as his other hand pressed down on your clit.
“You can come you little slut. Come on my cock like a good girl.”
You didn’t have to be told more. You felt tears of relief began to roll down your cheeks as you finally let yourself come, your thighs shaking as Jeonghan came right after you. His thrusts not stopping until you felt so full that you thought you might explode.
Jeonghan held you in that position for a little while, his cock buried deep inside you as he busied himself marking up your neck again, but after a few minutes he flipped you both over, sliding his cock out of you.
Your chest heaved against Jeonghan’s and you buried your face in his chest in pure exhaustion. You heard him sigh, his fingers making their way into your hair. He combed through it gently.
“Sorry,” he mumbled, his voice so quiet you almost couldn’t hear him. You looked up at him, confusion riddled over your clearly messy and red face. A flicker of a smile crossed Jeonghan’s lips at his handiwork, but it was replaced quickly by a solemn look that matched his apology.
“For what?” You asked. “You heard me thank you for everything earlier.”
You laughed softly and pressed your head back against his hand.
“You know I like it just as much as you do.”
“It’s not that,” Jeonghan replied. He looked troubled, and serious. “I’m sorry for taking my anger out on you... I shouldn’t do that. I won’t make a habit of it.”
“I don’t personally mind,” you commented with a shrug. “Take your anger out on me all you want if it makes you feel better.”
Jeonghan was still staring at you.
“Did it make you feel better?”
Jeonghan sighed, finally his eyes flickering away from you.
“I think it made it worse.”
You wanted to scream at Jeonghan. Mostly for being confusing. You were thinking of how to bring up the fact you knew he was lying about sleeping with other girls but every communication technique that you could use just fell flat in your mind. Start, stop, continue... NVC?
I feel confused because you told me you were sleeping with other people when you weren’t and I would like to talk to you about why you felt like you had to do that.
Not only were you not sure if that was formed right, but it would also be stupid to bring up in any normal context.
… Stupid Micah Salaberrios...
So instead of using your engrained knowledge of healthy proper communication you fell back on the easier option.
“You’ve never been in my place before. Do you like it?”
Jeonghan hummed and pulled away from you, sitting up. You whined as you fell into your comforter which made Jeonghan laugh. His fingers tightened in your hair again and he dragged you up with him.
“Dick...” You mumbled. Jeonghan snorted and you propped yourself up in your bed.
“You certainly have a lot of posters of men on your walls,” he observed, gesturing to the kpop posters you had scattered across your room. It just amused you.
“Jealous?”
“Hardly. I doubt you would be groveling on your knees for them, begging to be hit and used like a pretty little fuck toy.”
Your face reddened a bit.
“You would be surprised. I don’t know if I would be able to choose if my choices lied between you and Taeyoung.”
Jeonghan clearly didn’t like where the conversation was going as he gave you a stern look.
“You really want me to put you in your place all over again? Remind you what your only real use is?” He demanded.
You swallowed, surprised (and disappointed) by his lack of physical touch to match the threat. You kind of did want him to put you in your place all over again.
“No,” you mumbled. It was small. You clearly wanted more but Jeonghan played dumb. He patted your head.
“Where’s your shower?”
There he was again. That gentle Jeonghan that came after being railed and treated like you were nothing at all.
“Down the hall. On the left.”
Jeonghan stood up, stretch as soon as he was out of your bed and then scooped down to pick you up. You yelped in surprise but were in zero shape to fight back.
“I don’t always have to shower right after we fuck,” you whined, wrapping your arms around his neck. You couldn’t help an intrusive thought from escaping as well: “Why do you care so much about after care anyways?”
Jeonghan scoffed, and it vibrated through his body.
“What kind of emotional damage would I be leaving on you if I called you worthless and hit you and then just… left?”
You shrugged.
“What does it matter?” You asked. “I’m just a fuck toy.”
Jeonghan paused at the statement, his face scrunching in concentration for a moment. He looked like he really wanted to address your words but for some reason couldn’t figure out a way to. You didn’t understand why those choice words were bothering him. Even if he wasn’t sleeping with other people, they were objectively true.
“You’re not just a fuck toy,” Jeonghan finally said. “You are my fuck toy, but that’s not all you are.”
You opened your mouth to negate Jeonghan’s statement but before you could he was talking again.
“I’m going to start your shower.”
If his purpose was to derail the conversation by causing you additional frustration he had done the perfect job. You groaned, successfully rolling out of Jeonghan’s arms and back on your bed. You buried your face in your bed sheets. He didn’t seem put off by your show.
“I’ll shower first but you have to shower too,” he stated. “I don’t know why you are such a brat about showers. You’re so obedient for me otherwise.”
You waited for him to say more but when he didn’t you sat up and found that he wasn’t there anymore. You sighed. How unproductive.
Your mind turned to Jeonghan in the shower, and you realized that you didn’t actually have anything for him to wear. You knew that your clothes wouldn’t fit him so you raced to come up with anything else and then remembered that you had some clothes that one of your old flings had left once before.
You got out of bed and walked over to your closet, getting on top of a chair so that you could grab them from the top corner.
You gave them a test sniff, and found that they just smelled like your laundry detergent.
Along with those, you walked over to the hallway closet grabbing a fresh towel.
True to his word Jeonghan was still in the shower when you pushed into the bathroom.
“I brought you a towel,” you mumbled. “And some clothes.”
Jeonghan peeked around the shower curtain, frowning.
“I don’t think I’ll fit into your clothes love,” he stated. Your heart fluttered at his words. Love.
“They’re men’s clothes,” you replied. “I think they’ll fit you. You’re about the same height as…” Suddenly your thoughts turned to the other day at the library. Your lips pressed together. “Uh-”
At first Jeonghan just looked confused, but that confusion faded into understanding when he realized what you had been about to say. His head tilted and his expression became harder.
“About the same height as who?” He pressed. You kept your lips pressed together, unwilling to say a word. You just shook your head. He pushed aside the shower curtain and took the clothes from your hands tossing them on the floor.
Before you had come in here you had put a shirt on so that you weren’t walking around completely naked, but Jeonghan wrapped his arm around you, dipping under the shirt and coming down hard on your ass. You yelped and he pulled you close to him, the water from the shower coming off of him and onto your shirt.
“Whose clothes are on the floor of your bathroom y/n?” Jeonghan asked you. Your lips pressed together and again just shook your head. He slapped your ass again: “It’s not like you to be bad. You must be really scared.”
There was a hint of amusement in his voice. You cleared your throat.
“They’re just a friends-” Jeonghan hit your ass again. “Okay, it was a flings’. But it’s been months since I’ve even talked to him.”
Jeonghan’s eyebrow rose slightly.
“Then why are you so nervous?” He mumbled. Your eyes flickered to his.
“You have a bit of a jealous streak.”
Jeonghan laughed and looked like he wanted to negate what you said but before he could you flicked your head in the direction of the discarded clothes. He pressed his lips together.
“Okay… Maybe you have a point,” he relinquished. He looked back at you and shrugged. “Thanks for the clothes. Your turn.”
-
When you got out of the shower, you found Jeonghan in your kitchen in the clothes you had left for him. He looked annoyed and you didn’t have to look at him long to figure out why. He looked at you.
“Why do you even still have these?” He asked you. He pulled at the collar of his shirt in aggravation.
“I thought maybe Yujun would want them back.”
Jeonghan scoffed and rolled his eyes.
“Does it still smell like him?” He asked. “Don’t men’s clothes smell like them for a really long time?”
“Jeonghan don’t be stupid-”
“You can keep the clothes I wore over here,” he interrupted you. He gestured to what he was currently wearing. “I’m burning this.”
You rolled your eyes, but honestly, you thought it was a little cute. Even if this just made you even more confused on what Jeonghan saw you as. You wandered over to the kitchen island, taking a seat at one of the chairs. You rested your head on your hand.
“What are you doing in my kitchen anyways?” You asked. Jeonghan hummed.
“I thought it was about time you tried my cooking.”
Your eyebrows rose in surprise.
“What?” You asked. Jeonghan walked over to your pantry, pulling out a box of pasta. He looked at the box.
“I love pasta,” he mumbled, but it seemed like it was mostly to himself. He set the box on the counter and then looked in your fridge. He paused for a second as he looked at the contents. He then reached in and grabbed out a few things. Spinach, heavy cream, milk, cheese. You were surprised you had so many fresh ingredients.
He closed the fridge door behind him. You frowned slightly.
“Have you ever made pasta before?” You asked, your mind flickering to the fact that Jeonghan had evaded answering if he was a good cook or not. You thought that if someone were good as cooking they would brag about it. Like Mingyu did everytime you were over.
“I’ve seen Mingyu make pasta before,” Jeonghan replied, focused on getting out the things he needed for the dish. “How hard can it be?”
You had never seen anyone mess up anything as bad as Jeonghan messed up cooking pasta. You watched as he didn’t stir the pasta as it boiled, he burned the milk by turning the heat up too high, and on top of all that he set one of your kitchen towels on fire.
To be completely fair, you were pretty sure that the Alpha Mu house had electric stoves, not gas ones but regardless, it wasn’t what you had expected at all when he first started measuring out the ingredients to make the pasta sauce.
“When you said that I would find out if you were good at cooking or not-”
Jeonghan shut you up by lightly putting his hand in your face and pushing you to the side. You stumbled a little and shot him a glare.
“Hey! You about burned my apartment down!” You protested. Jeonghan had taken a seat at your kitchen island while you started to clean up after him. He had the audacity to be sitting there with a sad look on his face. As if something you had done was the reason that he couldn’t eat.
“I just wanted pasta,” he replied, his head rested on his arms that were on the counter.
“If you were that bad at cooking why didn’t you just ask me to make you something?” You demanded. Jeonghan still held that pathetic look on his face, as if he was a child being scolded.
“Do you know how to make pasta?” He asked you. You huffed loudly out of your mouth.
“You’re so weird Jeonghan,” you mumbled. “Of course, I know how to make pasta. All you have to do is boil some water and heat some milk and heavy whipping cream.”
You put the lid on your pot as you dumped the water out of the overcooked pasta.
“It’s not really aftercare if you do the cooking,” Jeonghan continued, that whine still in his voice. You rolled your eyes.
“That’s not true. Maybe it’s aftercare from me to you,” you replied. “You make me shower. I’ll cook you food.”
Jeonghan was silent for so long that it worried you. You dumped the pasta out into your trash can and then looked up at him. He was watching you closely, the pout that had been on his face was gone now. When he realized that you were looking at him, he let his eyes flutter closed.
“Okay, cook for me then,” he said. There was something weird in his voice, your eyebrows furrowed as you tried to figure out what it was. You stood there for only a few seconds before you gave up.
How could you expect yourself to understand the tone of his voice when you didn’t even understand why he had lied to you about sleeping with other girls?
You turned your attention back to the stove, cleaning the pots as you needed them. The silence between you and Jeonghan was weird, so you found yourself glancing back at him a lot to see if he was asleep or not. Each time you looked back at him you found his eyes were fluttering shut.
It was like he was a child. He was quite literally pretending to be asleep when in reality he was watching you cook.
You couldn’t help but feel a little irritated.
“What have you been doing the last few days anyways?” You mumbled as you mixed some cheese into the sauce you were making. “Or I guess the question is who have you been doing?”
It was a trap really. Was it fair for you to trap a boy in a lie who didn’t even know you knew he was lying?
“I thought you didn’t get jealous unless it was Chaedom?” Jeonghan asked. You rolled your eyes and looked back at him. Again, his eyes fluttered shut as if he hadn’t been watching you at all.
“I’m not jealous,” you replied, but the bite in your voice said otherwise. “I’m just wondering that’s all.”
“I don’t need to tell you about that kind of stuff,” Jeonghan responded. “Why do you even care?”
You couldn’t answer that.
“I don’t,” you replied. “It’s just interesting to be fucking around with someone who is so openly fucking other people.”
You heard Jeonghan moving, but you kept your focus on the stove. You sort of expected him to have left the room but then all of a sudden his arms wrapped around your chest and Jeonghan buried his face into the back of your neck. You made a small noise in protest to the sudden affection.
“I’m tired,” Jeonghan complained. “You’re taking too long to cook.”
You wanted to be annoyed but having Jeonghan at such a close proximity made your heart flutter. Against your better judgement you let your head loll back against his a little.
“Cooking takes time,” you mumbled back. Jeonghan made a soft noise of complaint, but he didn’t say more.
God, you really didn’t get Jeonghan sometimes and it was almost as if the more you got to know him the more confusing he got. The way that he was holding you it was almost as if...
God, you didn’t want to think those things. You couldn’t stand to be any more delusional than you already were being.
Why was Jeonghan lying to you? It had to be a manipulation tactic. Maybe he was just bored. Maybe he had tired of fucking other people but he wanted to keep you at a distance.
Or maybe he just thrived on your confusion. Maybe he just wanted to see how far you would let him go with things. Maybe he wanted to hurt you, and this was the way he was going about it.
“Your thoughts are loud.”
Your eyes widened at Jeonghan’s words.
“Huh? What thoughts?” You asked. Jeonghan shifted his body.
“You’re overthinking us again, aren’t you?” He replied.
“I’m not-” You huffed out in aggravation. “What is there to overthink?”
Jeonghan turned so that his face was in yours.
“It’s natural to want to be close to someone in a relationship like ours,” Jeonghan said.
You stared at Jeonghan, a little lost for words with how close he was to you.
“A relationship like ours...?”
“We’re practically in a dom/sub relationship,” Jeonghan defined. “Just without a contract.”
Luckily the addition at the end seemed to remind yourself that this was Jeonghan you were talking to. He probably categorized dreams that he had about being in a real relationship with someone as a nightmare. You were being delusional getting stuck on things like him being clingy after sex and referring to you two as having a relationship.
He was right after all. You two did have a relationship. It just wasn’t a romantic one.
“What? Like in 50 Shades of Grey?” You asked, rolling your eyes. You batted Jeonghan away from you and took the pot off the stove to drain the noodles.
“I’m just saying, it’s not weird that I would want to hold you while you’re cooking. Or that you would want me close when we’re sleeping,” Jeonghan continued. You tried to come off as indifferent towards the conversation, honestly feeling a bit annoyed that he had been so easily able to tell that your mind was racing. “It’s better if I give you reassurance afterwards, whether it be physical or just emotional.”
Still ignoring Jeonghan you poured the pasta into your finished sauce, tossing the noodles around in it.
“And what about you?” You pondered, turning to look at Jeonghan. He was now leaning against your counter, just looking at you. “Don’t you need reassurance?”
“I am always getting reassurance from you,” Jeonghan replied bluntly. “Your confirmation that you know our safe word, the way that you let me tell you to do things even outside of the bedroom, even when you’re being a brat about after care-”
You looked away from him with an annoyed grunt as you went to get some bowls out of the pantry. You opened up a cabinet and got on your tip toes a little bit so that you could grab the bowls. Jeonghan stopped you, putting a hand over yours. You felt like you had to look at him.
“Your trust is reassurance to me. You have every chance to tell me no. You have every chance to tell me something is too much. You don’t have to put up with anything I do if you don’t want to,” Jeonghan said. He grabbed down two bowls, holding them out for you. “That’s my reassurance. It’s in your words and actions. You need the same reassurance from me.”
You pressed your lips together and took the bowls from Jeonghan. You looked away from him and started to scoop the pasta into the bowls. You cleared your throat, trying to shake the heavy feeling off of your shoulders.
“Why are you talking to me as if I’m not a Psych major?” You asked. “I understand the importance of reassurance.”
You turned around and pointed for Jeonghan to sit down. He did as he was told and you set the bowl of pasta in front of him, giving him a fork and a glass of water before sitting down next to him.
“Then why are you acting like it’s weird when I take steps to make sure you are reassured?” Jeonghan asked. Your eyes fluttered down to your food.
“We’re just fuck buddies Jeonghan,” you replied as if it was obvious. You risked a glance at him and immediately regretted it. Even though he had said early he was hungry, even though he had complained about being tired the only thing he was focused on was you. “I’ve had boyfriends who were less affectionate than you are.”
Jeonghan’s jaw tightened a little at your words.
“What do you mean by that?” He asked. You couldn’t keep looking at him, so you looked back at your food, poking at it as you waited for it to cool down.
“It’s just all this aftercare… I’m just not used to it.”
“How could you not be used to aftercare?” Jeonghan practically repeated the same question as before.
“My other partners never gave me aftercare,” you replied. “They would just… Fall asleep, or kick me out, or leave themselves. We didn’t do legos, or breakfast. They definitely didn’t start showers for me.”
Jeonghan was quiet, and honestly? His silence made you feel like your confession was worse than it was.
“It’s not like I need the reassurance. It’s kind of like you said. I find reassurance in other ways.”
“No,” Jeonghan said, his voice sharp. “I find reassurance directly in what you say and do. What you’re describing is the same as if I never even told you how good you are for me.”
You rolled your eyes.
“Jeonghan you assure me that I’m good even in the middle of sex.”
“Yeah, I do,” he agreed. “But did they?”
Your lips pressed together firmly.
“I thought you didn’t like me talking about other men,” you finally said. Jeonghan pressed his hands on either sides of your chair and turned you so that you were facing him. He then raised a hand to your face, forcing you to make eye contact with him.
“Y/n, you can’t be so nonchalant about these things,” he said, his voice hushed. “You’re smart, you know better than I do the effect that this kind of relationship could have on you if I didn’t force aftercare down your throat. I know it’s uncomfortable and it’s weird since we aren’t dating and you aren’t used to this but you do need it. You know you need it. I need you to admit that you need it.”
You didn’t want to admit that you needed aftercare. You didn’t want to admit that you needed Jeonghan’s reassurance. This was only more confusing knowing what you knew about Jeonghan. How could he be lying to you about sleeping with other people and in the same breath tell you that he knew how important it was to reassure you that you were good?
Again, his actions just didn’t make sense. If this was a manipulation technique it was a fucking weird one.
But then again, Jeonghan didn’t look like he was manipulating you. Getting to know him you couldn’t really see him as some sort of monster who was just trying to hurt you. Why would someone who was just aiming to see you cry put so much effort into making sure you understood that you were cared for?
It was moments like these where the delusions were so easy to believe. He knew you so well, and he clearly cared so much about you. You could tell in the way that he wasn’t just looking at you. His eyes were darting all over your face like he was reading every single part of you to completely understand you. Maybe Jeonghan not sleeping with other people was actually for you.
Maybe he cared about you so much that he just couldn’t imagine actually sleeping with other people.
But then again, these thoughts were all just that- Delusions.
“I…” You really hated that Jeonghan was right. “I do need it.”
A smile flickered across Jeonghan’s face.
“And there’s my reassurance,” he said softly. His fingers loosened their grip on you, and he raised a hand to your head. He patted you. “Now eat.”
You opened your mouth to say more, but it seemed like Jeonghan was done with the topic. He turned to the pasta and took a scoop of it. As soon as he put it in his mouth, he let out a pleasant hum.
“This is really good,” he commented. That seemed to kick you back into the moment. You turned yourself back towards your food and began to eat as well.
“Of course, it’s good,” you mumbled. “I made it.”
“I should come over more.”
The comment was probably meant to be off handed, but it only took you more by surprise.
“But you should cook before we have sex so that we can just go to sleep right after.”
He glanced at you.
“You don’t seem like your mind is being all that quiet today.”
Of course, your mind wasn’t being quiet. God, you wanted to scream at him. He was lying to you. Lying to you about something stupid. Lying to you about something that no one in their right minds would ever lie about.
And no matter how hard you thought about it, no matter how much you searched for a logical reason you couldn’t find one. It didn’t make sense that Jeonghan would lie to you and say he was sleeping with other people in any way at all.
You tried not to let it show too much how bothered you were, and instead just let his comment sit in the air. You noticed he finished eating a while before you did, but he waited as if he wasn’t done until you had finished yourself. Then- Despite your many protests- He got up and started to clean the dishes.
“Go to sleep y/n,” he said. “You need to rest.”
You did feel tired. Physically, and emotionally. But regardless, you were annoyed at Jeonghan.
“I never do dishes at your place,” you complained. He laughed airily.
“And you also never pull me by the hair and tell me I’m only good at being fucked,” Jeonghan replied. “Our roles aren’t so easily reversed.”
You defiantly stayed where you were, watching Jeonghan clean the dishes.
“And what are you going to do then?” You asked him. He glanced back at you. “Are you going to go home?”
“What do you want me to do?” Jeonghan asked. Your heart skipped a beat but before your mind could complicate the feeling you remembered what Jeonghan had said. It was natural to want a kind of intimacy with Jeonghan within the relationship you two had. You needed reassurance.
You didn’t respond. You just silently screamed at him.
Stay.
Jeonghan hummed, and his eyes flitted back to the dishes.
“I’ll come join you in a minute then.”
You blinked.
“I didn’t say that I wanted you to stay,” you said. Another laugh from Jeonghan.
“Okay, then I’ll leave.”
“No-” Your response came a little faster than you thought a fuck buddies should. “No, I do want you to stay.”
Jeonghan hummed and didn’t respond so after a few moments you sighed.
Why were you trying to pick fights with him right now? You were tired. You should just let things be for the time being. You quietly left the room, putting on some pajamas and climbing into your bed. You laid there for a few minutes, but it felt weird to be in your bed instead of Jeonghan’s after just being railed.
You wondered if your mind was racing so much because you were used to your relationship with Jeonghan being in a finite place.
You worried for a little while that Jeonghan wasn’t actually going to join you, but just as those thoughts appeared in your head, Jeonghan walked into your room. He closed the door shut behind himself and then climbed under the sheets.
Your bed was a queen size, versus his king, so it was a bit smaller than you were used to sharing with him. You tried to lay there and pretend like you were asleep.
A few minutes passed. Had it always been so cold in your room?
“Jeonghan?” You managed to say. Jeonghan hummed a response. “Can you hold me?”
Jeonghan shifted beside you and suddenly his arms were around you. He pulled you up against his chest, putting his face in his favorite spot- On your neck.
“See that? My reassurance,” Jeonghan mumbled. “You’ve been good today.”
You put aside all worries about Jeonghan’s intentions towards you. You did really like the assurance.
-
“So, how has it gone in paradise?” Yeongtae asked. You groaned, loudly, unafraid to express to Yeongtae that he was treading in territory you didn’t want him in.
“I don’t want to talk about it,” you grumbled. He laughed.
“I’m rooting for you two!” He insisted. “And, admittedly, I’m curious to see how things will play out. Last episode was kind of a cliffhanger.”
“My sex life isn’t a tv show,” you replied. Then after a few minutes. “Besides, I’m also in the dark right now.”
Yeongtae’s eyes widened.
“You haven’t asked him yet?” He blurted.
“No,” you mumbled. “But that’s not a big deal, I mean what’s it even matter that he’s lying to me about sleeping with other people? He’s not. That’s a good thing.”
You tried to come off as nonchalant, but your mind was racing. You wondered what Yeongtae was going to say in response. You weren’t sure if you wanted him to reassure you that it wasn’t as big of a deal as you were making it out to be in your head or if you wanted him to reassure you that you weren’t crazy for obsessing over it so much the last few days.
“He’s still lying,” Yeongtae mumbled back. “What’s the harm in confronting him over it? I’m sure he has answers.”
You frowned, still a little put off by the whole situation. You didn’t want to have to bring it up to Jeonghan yourself. You didn’t really want him to know you knew.
It crossed your mind briefly that maybe one of the boys had told Jeonghan that you had asked them but quickly dismissed it. You were pretty sure that they all liked you a lot, and building off of that you were pretty sure that if Jeonghan did know, he would have brought it up by now.
… Maybe.
“You are way too stressed out over this situation,” Yeongtae said with a sigh and a shake of his head. “You should come to a party with me tonight.”
You scoffed at the invitation.
“Right.”
“No, I’m serious!” Yeongtae insisted. “You never have fun and let loose! We’ll bring Jeongyeon and Jimin and Jun and you can drink for once.”
“There is nothing healthy about going to a party to drink away your problems,” you replied. “It would just be further-”
“Blah, blah, blah,” Yeongtae interrupted. He took a step in front of you, forcing you to stop walking. “Come on! Forget your psych degree. Who cares if it’s unhealthy? It’s just one night. You’ll just stop thinking about him for one night. Nothing wrong with that.”
You had never hung out with Jimin and Jeongyeon voluntarily. That being said, your whole group was weird. To be going to a party that wasn’t an Alpha Mu party, to hang out with Jun, Jimin, Jeongyeon, and Yeongtae?
Well, you had never imagined that there would be a day.
As soon as you got to the party, Yeongtae had peeled away, only to come back a few minutes later with a bunch of drinks in red solo cups in hand. He passed the cups out to everyone, smiling brightly.
“Is everyone ready to have an amazing night?” He asked excitedly.
One of the reasons that you had actually agreed to come out tonight was because of Yeongtae. Namely, because it had occurred to you recently that Yeongtae hadn’t been lying to you when you first met. You were pretty sure that you actually were his only friend in school.
He never talked about meeting with other people, and if he did answer a phone call or anything it was from a friend that was out of town. You felt a bit bad for him, considering all you two spent your time doing was studying.
You looked down at the cup full of amber liquid, squinting at it unsurely. You cleared your throat.
God, it had been such a long time since you had actually gone drinking. You didn’t tend to find solace in getting drunk as normally you were practically babysitting your friends.
“Y/n, don’t worry so much about it.”
You looked up to find that Jun was watching you closely. He gave you a smile.
“I’ll watch out for you,” he assured you. “So don’t worry, nothing bad will happen.”
You gave him a small smile and nodded.
“Okay, thanks.”
You knew you didn’t have to drink if you didn’t want to. Not really.
You tipped the drink into your mouth.
You supposed that you wanted to.
The thing about getting drunk for you was mostly just that you were constantly dizzy. You weren’t necessarily clumsier than usually but the whole world constantly felt like it was spinning. You kept your grip tight on Yeongtae’s forearm as he started to talk to a girl. You laughed as you watched the two interact, glad to see that Yeongtae was actually enjoying someone’s company.
“How long have you and your girlfriend been dating?” The girl asked, her eyes shooting to you. It was a look that you had only seen in this eyes of other girls who wanted to be with Jeonghan. You laughed.
“What? We’re not dating,” you said. You let go of Yeongtae’s forearm and craned your neck, pointing to where you thought some of your fading hickeys might be. “I belong to someone else.”
“Yoon Jeonghan,” Yeongtae filled in. The girl seemed a bit surprised at the mention of Jeonghan but regardless a smile flickered across her face.
“So you won’t mind if I take Yeongtae away?”
Your mouth dropped open in excitement and surprise.
“Oh, be my guest!” Your eyes flitted towards Yeongtae. “I won’t be answering any phone calls though.”
Yeongtae laughed as the girl latched herself onto Yeongtae.
“And here I was hoping to finally get my revenge.”
The girl dragged Yeongtae away through the crowd and you found yourself alone. You wondered where to go next but you vaguely remembered Jimin and Jeongyeon sneaking off to a closet a little while earlier. They were no help.
You thought maybe you would try and go find Jun.
You took a few steps but before you could get far you bumped into someone. You went to apologize but stopped dead in your tracks. Your eyebrows furrowed slightly.
“Yunjun?”
The tall boy looked to be just as surprised as you were. You thought for a moment that maybe you had the wrong guy, but Yunjun was definitely standing there. Your eyes flickered to his hair. It was long and blonde. You’d never seen it like that before.
“Y/n,” Yunjun replied. His eyes flickered up and down your body, making you feel a bit self-conscious. You weren’t dressed in a lot as per Jeongyeon’s request. You two were wearing matching skirts and crop tops. “You look really good.”
Your lips flickered into a smile.
“Uh, thanks.”
You couldn’t help the way that your mind turned when you were with him. Just being near him reminded you of your time with him. Of all your flings he had probably been the worst one that you were with in terms of reassurance and aftercare. And going on that he had been one of your most intense flings.
Whereas Jeonghan was rough with you in actions and words he still slipped in praise here and there. Yunjun had never done that. It was why you had stopped seeing him. He made you feel small.
“What have you been up to recently?” Yunjun asked. He seemed to think over a few things. “Don’t you still have some of my clothes?”
Your mind flickered back to Jeonghan.
“Uh, something happened to them. I don’t have them anymore.”
Yunjun seemed confused by that statement, but he didn’t dig.
“You know, it’s been a really long time since I had my hands on you,” Yunjun said softly. He stepped closer to you, his hand coming up to your face. He brushed a strand of hair to the side. “It would be fine to have a blast from the past.”
You laughed nervously. Yunjun was someone that you didn’t really feel comfortable around. You went to respond but before you could his eyes flickered to your neck. He frowned and tilted your head up.
“How did…?” “Oh, uh-” You batted Yunjun’s hand away from you. His frown deepened at that. “I actually am seeing someone right now.”
Yunjun’s eyes narrowed at you. You could tell he didn’t like that you had diminished his display of dominance over you.
You were a bit too drunk to handle this situation. If you were sober, you knew that you wouldn’t be so nervous around him. You also knew that you would be able to leave this conversation without a stray thought.
“Who?” Yunjun asked. Now it was your turn to frown.
“It doesn’t matter,” you responded.
“Sure, it does. I just need to know if I should really worry about using someone else’s toy.”
You pressed your lips together. You hated being objectified when it was like this. This wasn’t a turn on. This was a situation you wanted out of.
“You should worry about it because I’m not a toy you’re going to get to use today,” you replied. “Or tomorrow or-”
Yunjun interrupted you with a laugh.
“It’s not like you to get drunk y/n,” he said. “The alcohol is making you forget how much fun we used to have.”
He tilted his head a bit, his eyes still on the hickey’s on your neck.
“You never let me leave hickeys on you.”
“He’s more possessive than you,” you replied pointedly. “I’m done with this conversation. Even if I wasn’t with someone, I’m not interested in sleeping with you again.”
You turned away from Yunjun, your thoughts returning to getting back to Jun but just as you turned around Yunjun’s tight gripe was on your wrist.
“That’s not your safe word,” he warned. Your eyebrows furrowed as you searched your mind to try and remember what your safe word with Yunjun had been, but in your drunk haze all you could remember was your safe word with Jeonghan. You opened your mouth to reassert that you weren’t going to sleep with Yunjun and that you didn’t remember your safe word (not that it should matter) but before you could someone came to a stop in front of you.
Your eyes furrowed and you raised your gaze to meet the persons eyes.
Everything was blurry but you could still make out that it was Jeonghan standing in front of you.
His face was a dark red and after glance at his hands you saw that his fists were clenched. You looked back up at his eyes.
“Jeonghan.”
His eyes flickered away from yours and he looked over your head.
“Let go of her.”
Jeonghan’s voice was deeper than you had ever heard it before. Yunjun let go of you so suddenly that you couldn’t help but fall forward, your head bumping into Jeonghan’s chest.
He wrapped his arms around your body, and pulled you close to him, one hand going protectively over your head. You could feel that he was talking, his body was vibrating with each word, but you couldn’t figure out what he was saying.
You tried to move to look up at him or access the situation but Jeonghan’s grip on you was too tight. He was quite literally shielding you from the conversation. Part of you wanted to fight against it. You wanted to know what he was saying.
But another part of you was tired and felt undeniably felt safer wrapped in Jeonghan’s arms. For the first time in hours, it felt quiet.
Then, Jeonghan started to move. He kept you close to him, still trying to shield you as he started to lead you through the crowd. He stopped somewhere and this time you were able to look up. He was talking to Jun. He covered your ears again quickly.
Then he started to lead you out of the party again.
Once the two of you were out in the cool air, he loosened his grip on you, letting you pull away from his body. He didn’t completely let go of you. His hand slid down, his fingers intertwining with yours.
He was quiet, not saying anything. You could feel that he was upset. But you could also feel that it wasn’t at you.
“Do you know how hard it was to watch that?” Jeonghan asked after a few minutes. When he started speaking, he also started to walk again, dragging you along with him. “I didn’t want to intervene, I know you can handle yourself.”
You didn’t respond to him, so he continued.
“When he touched you? You so clearly didn’t want it and he ignored all of your signs.”
Another brief span of silence.
“Who was that?”
“Just an old fling,” you replied, your voice quiet. You were still so dizzy. “Yunjun.”
Jeonghan’s grip tightened on your hand.
“He’s lucky he’s not dead,” he replied. “He might not see the end of the week.”
“Don’t joke about that Jeonghan,” you said. His eyes fluttered back to you, and the look in his eyes made you realize that his next statement was true.
“I’m not joking.”
You looked to the street.
“I’m sorry,” you mumbled.
Jeonghan stopped in his tracks, making you bump right into him. When you looked up, Jeonghan was looking at you with a terrifyingly serious expression on his face.
“Why?” He asked. You just stared at him. “Why are you sorry? Because you decided to have fun for once? Because you got drunk safely around friends? Because you let an old fling touch you even though you told him no?”
His words were hushed in a way that made it very clear to you he was fighting screaming.
“Don’t apologize for that,” he said. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
“But you’re upset,” you replied softly. “I’m sorry for making you upset.”
“I’m overly possessive. This isn’t news,” he said. “Of course, I’m upset. Someone else was touching you.”
His eyes briefly flickered away from you, but his gaze was back fast.
“But that’s not your fault. I’m not upset at you,” he said. “And even if you had wanted the touches. Even if you had asked for that attention I still wouldn’t be upset at you. You can do whatever you want.”
You wanted to argue with him further on this. If he wasn’t mad at you then who was he mad at?
It was useless though.
“Do you want me to take you to your place?”
God, he was so frustrating.
“I don’t suppose you’re going to fuck me.”
You didn’t mean to be so blunt, but also you didn’t care. You kind of wanted the validation that came from having sex with Jeonghan. Even if he was confusing. Even if he was lying. You knew that he was serious when he called you good. You knew that he was being truthful when he said that he couldn’t get enough of you.
You liked that at a party with a hundred people you knew that if you were there Jeonghan would end up going home with you.
You wondered if he got jealous over other people he had slept with flirting with people. It didn’t make sense that he would only be jealous over you.
“You’re drunk,” was all Jeonghan said.
“You’d fuck me if I was sober,” you replied. Jeonghan ignored you, but you knew he was right.
“Can I…” You didn’t want to ask. This was stepping over some sort of boundary, right? You couldn’t stay the night at Jeonghan’s if you two weren’t going to have sex. You two were entering a weird territory.
But you were craving validation. Yunjun had left you so unsettled.
“Can I stay at yours?” Your voice was really quiet. “I know that we aren’t really in that sort of-”
“Of course, you can,” Jeonghan replied. “I’d never say no to something like that.”
You two walked for a few more paces in silence but suddenly nausea swept over you. You tugged at Jeonghan’s hand, trying to get him to let you go. Once he did, you felt yourself fall to the ground. You groaned and buried your face in your hands.
You didn’t walk another step.
“Let’s sleep here,” you murmured. “The ground is comfortable.”
You rolled over even further, your back hitting the concrete. You heard Jeonghan sigh, and he knelt down in front of you.
“You can’t sleep here,” he said. “We’re almost back.”
You groaned in protest, keeping your face buried. Jeonghan let you sit there for a few seconds.
“Do you want me to carry you?”
You peeked up at him.
“Carry me?”
He nodded and turned around, crouched with his back towards you. He glanced at you over his shoulder.
“Come on. Get on my back.”
You pressed your lips together. Wasn’t this a little intimate?
But then again, if it were a friend like Yeongtae or Jun you would get on their back without hesitation.
You did as Jeonghan wanted you to. Once you were secure on his back Jeonghan stood up and began to walk. You two were quiet, you were afraid to lay your head too close to Jeonghan but you were also still ridiculously tired. You let your head rest on his shoulders, your eyes fluttering shut.
“Jeonghan?”
He hummed.
“Yeah?”
“Thank you.”
-
When you woke up you were in Jeonghan’s room. Your head hurt a little bit as you turned over to face Jeonghan’s side of the bed, but he wasn’t there. You pressed your lips together. Was this how he felt when he woke up and you weren’t next to him?
You glanced over and noticed a glass of water on the bedside table with a note. You reached over and began to drink the water as you read Jeonghan’s writing.
Call me when you wake up. Mingyu’s making you breakfast.
You weren’t in the same clothes as you had been the night before so Jeonghan must have changed you.
You tried to think back on the night, but you couldn’t remember anything after you fell asleep. Maybe you and Jeonghan had fucked last night? Further evidence that you meant very little to Jeonghan.
You sighed and pulled out your phone to call Jeonghan. You knew Jeonghan wouldn’t fuck you when you were drunk. As much of a player as he was, there were lines you knew he wouldn’t cross.
The phone only rang once.
“Good morning, sleeping beauty.”
You rolled your eyes.
“Morning,” you mumbled.
“Sorry I wasn’t there to greet you. I had an exam to go to,” he said. “Are you drinking your water?”
You hummed your confirmation to his question.
“Are you feeling, okay?” There was an air of worry in his voice.
“Yeah, I’m fine,” you replied. “I just don’t drink a lot is all.”
Jeonghan was quiet for a little while.
“It’s hard to figure out if you’re telling the truth or not over the phone,” he murmured. “Tonight Alpha Mu is throwing a party. If you’re feeling better, you should come.”
You thought over it.
“Maybe,” you replied. “Hey, why were you at the party last night?”
“Hm? Jun told me about it.”
Your eyebrows rose.
“What? Why?”
“He wanted to make sure you were watched well while you were drinking since you were nervous about it,” Jeonghan replied. “And he knew that I would kill him if something happened to you.”
“I can take of myself,” you murmured into the phone.
“I know,” Jeonghan agreed, and nothing in his words made you think that he was just saying it to make you feel better. “But isn’t it nice to have someone watching out for you?”
It was.
“I should get back to my place,” you said. “Maybe I’ll see you later.”
Suddenly a thought occurred to you.
“Hey if I don’t come to the party tonight, are you going to sleep with someone else?”
“Why’re you so interested in who I sleep with recently?” Jeonghan asked. “I thought you didn’t care.”
“I don’t,” you replied. “Just… Wondering. Do you use condoms with them?”
“I always use condoms,” Jeonghan replied as if it was obvious.
“But never with me,” you replied. He scoffed.
“Aren’t you the same person who was begging me for a creampie the first time with me?” He asked. You opened your mouth to argue with him, but then your mind flashed the memory of your first time with him.
“Goodbye, Jeonghan.”
Jeonghan laughed.
“Goodbye, y/n.”
You walked downstairs after getting changed, giving a drowsy smile to the boys in the kitchen. It was only Mingyu, Seungcheol, and Jun. You took a seat next to Jun, immediately getting a plate of eggs placed in front of you. You smiled at Mingyu.
“Thanks, I feel bad, you’re always feeding me.”
He waved away your concerns.
“It’s nice to feed someone other than the boys,” he assured.
“Are you feeling okay?” Jun asked you. He leaned close to you, peering into your eyes. “Jeonghan and I were watching you talk to that guy last night-”
“Yunjun,” you agreed with a nod. Seungcheol suddenly shifted on the other end of the table.
“Yunjun?” He asked. “How do you know Yunjun?”
You glanced across the table at him, your eyebrows furrowing.
“I had a fling with him,” you replied. Seungcheol’s face showed that he was troubled by your response. “How do you know Yunjun?”
“Mutual friends,” he replied. “Did he do anything to you?”
You could feel the gaze of all three boys on you.
“It’s just Yunjun,” you said with a laugh. “He’s harmless.”
“Jeonghan was pissed when he brought you in last night,” Mingyu explained. “We wouldn’t be concerned if it weren’t for just how angry he was.”
Your eyebrows rose in surprise.
“Angry?”
“He came downstairs after putting you up and sat for an hour building lego sets not saying a word. He didn’t really get anything done. That’s how you could tell he was mad. Then he went back upstairs to be with you,” Seungcheol explained.
“Nothing really happened,” you disregarded. “Jeonghan just gets jealous.”
The boys were silent for a few seconds. They clearly disagreed with something you had said. You weren’t sure what.
“Are you coming to the party tonight?” Jun finally asked. You shrugged.
“Maybe. I don’t know yet,” you said honestly. “My head hurts from the party.”
Seungcheol wordlessly got up and rummaged through a drawer for a moment before setting a bottle of ibproufen in front of you. You laughed dryly, shaking your head.
“You are a strange group of guys,” you said honestly. “You baby me just as much as Jeonghan does.”
The boys ignored your statement, and brought up something else. Luckily, giving you the chance to eat your eggs in peace.
Despite the weird air the boys gave off initially, being around them made you sure of one thing. Maybe another party was just what you needed. After all, last night your stress had momentarily been gone. What was the worst that could happen?
-
When you got to the Alpha Mu party your first thought was that you shouldn’t have come. Your head still hurt a little bit from drinking the night before. But, you wanted to see Jeonghan so you had wanted to come to the party either way.
You were sure that you could convince him to spend some time in his room if you found him soon anyways. You walked through the party but didn’t make it far before someone stopped you.
“Hey it’s y/n, right?”
Your eyebrows furrowed as you made out the boy standing in front of you. He was only slightly taller than you, his black hair in a bowl cut with wide eyes.
“Yeah…” You replied uncertainly. “Who are you?”
“Oh, right, you wouldn’t know me,” he replied with a hearty laugh. He held out his hand. “Hyeon.”
You dipped your head a little in greeting.
“Nice to meet you.”
It wasn’t though. He was giving off a strange air.
“I heard you had a run in with Yunjun last night,” Hyeon said. “I’m his friend. We met a little while after you stopped seeing him.”
Your eyebrows furrowed.
“Oh.” “And I heard that you like it rough in bed yeah? You like to be owned?”
The way he was speaking was making you a bit angry. The difference between today and last night being now that you weren’t drunk you had clarity over the situation. Hyeon was being a sexist asshole and it was making you angry.
However, before you could respond Jeonghan came up behind you, placing his hand on your shoulder. His grip was tight as he came to a stop beside you. You glanced over at him, noticing a really hard expression on his face.
“Oh, Jeonghan. I heard that you’re the man in the know,” Hyeon said, an even bigger smile crossing his lips. “Is it true that y/n is a pathetic slut in bed?”
Your eyes widened slightly.
“How did you hear about that?” You asked, but you supposed it was from Yunjun if they really were friends.
“Was I talking to you?” Hyeon asked roughly, his eyebrows furrowing. You blinked at the aggressive tone.
“Hey-” Jeonghan started, but before he could get more out you interrupted him by placing your hand on his chest and stepping closer to Hyeon.
“I’m sorry, what did you just say to me?” You asked, your voice getting deeper and your words getting curter.  Hyeon leaned closer, his eyes narrowing.
“I said I wasn’t talking to you,” Hyeon repeated. “Don’t you know better than to talk without permission?”
Hyeon shot you a cocky expression on his face.
“I guess you forgot Yunjun’s training,” he said. His gaze darted over your shoulder. “And Jeonghan hasn’t done well reminding you of your place.”
Your fist collided with Hyeon’s face before you could think about it further. Hyeon stumbled back, in surprise, you figured, not pain, and readjusted his jaw.
“What the-”
“Don’t talk about me like that. Not in front of me, not when I’m not around, not ever,” you snapped. “Just because I like it when Jeonghan treats me like that doesn’t mean I want to be treated like that by everyone. Especially not an ugly piece of shit like you.”
Hyeon squared his shoulders,
“Sorry Jeonghan I’m going to have to beat some sense into your little side piece-” Hyeon started to approach you again, raising his fist as he approached. You immediately regretted speaking. Your eyes widened and you raised your hands in front of your face, but impact never came.
“Hyeon, you seemed to not have heard what y/n just said.”
You looked up at Jeonghan to find that he had Hyeon’s fist in his hand and he was completely blocking Hyeon’s access to you with his body. You straightened back up, glancing around Jeonghan cautiously. Unlike earlier with you Hyeon actually looked a little scared looking up at Jeonghan who quite literally towered over him.
“J-Jeonghan, I was just joking-”
“Apologize,” Jeonghan said.
“Wh-what?”
“Apologize right now.”
Jeonghan let go of Hyeon’s fist, making him stumble a bit. He took one more glance at Jeonghan’s face and then immediately looked at you.
“I’m sorry, okay? I didn’t mean it.”
Jeonghan grabbed Hyeon’s arm and tilted it behind Hyeon’s back in a way that made him cry out.
“Not good enough,” Jeonghan said sharply.
You thought that this Jeonghan should seem familiar to you. After all, it should on paper be the same Jeonghan that you saw in the bedroom. Rough and stern and not going to leave without getting what he wanted.
But he was different somehow with Hyeon. For once, you were a little scared about what he was going to do.
“I’m sorry, I really am.”
Jeonghan scoffed and knocked Hyeon down to his knees. Once Hyeon was down there, Jeonghan pulled his head up by the roots of his hair.
“Why don’t you beg y/n for forgiveness?”
Hyeon pressed his lips together, clearly hesitating to do so but despite his hesitation: “Please forgive me.”
Jeonghan looked over at you, an amused expression spreading over his face.
“Ever wondered what you like when you’re with me?”
You rolled your eyes, a little flustered by the display in front of you.
“You seem like you’re enjoying this,” you mumbled.
“Not really,” Jeonghan replied. “I’d much rather it be you. It’s not enjoyable in the slightest to put Hyeon in his place.”
He tightened his grip in Hyeon’s hair.
“Well, do you forgive him?” He asked. You sighed and shrugged.
“I guess. I kinda feel bad seeing him like this. He can’t help that he’s a man.”
Jeonghan hummed and released Hyeon’s hair, throwing him forward so that he had to catch himself with his hands. He gasped as if he hadn’t been able to breathe before and looked up at you, this time a look of fear in his eyes.
“You two are crazy.”
And then Hyeon stumbled to his feet and rushed away, disappearing into the crowd of people that you couldn’t believe weren’t paying attention to the two of you.
You glanced at Jeonghan, but he wasn’t looking at you, instead he was squinting in the direction that Hyeon had rushed off in. Your eyes narrowed slightly as you looked at him.
“Why did you react like that?” You asked. Jeonghan hummed in question, merely tilting his head towards you in acknowledgment.
“React like what?”
“Like... That,” you emphasized. “Like... You cared about the fact that he was being a dick to me.”
“Why wouldn’t I care?”
“Because I’m just a fuck toy,” you blurted. This made Jeonghan look at you, his eyebrows raising.
“What?”
“I’m just a fuck toy,” you repeated. Jeonghan frowned deeply.
“You’ve got to stop saying that outside of the bedroom,” he mumbled. “You’re not just a fuck toy. Why would you refer to yourself like that to me?”
Frustration bubbled in your chest. You knew that Micah Salaberrios would be laughing at you right now. If you had used his nonviolent communication techniques earlier your feelings wouldn’t be boiling up like this.
Despite the dumb advice in Micah’s book you knew that there was one piece of advice you shouldn’t overlook. Don’t bring up the conversation right now when your feelings are just going to prevent you from talking rationally. Whatever you do don’t bring up-
“Why did you lie to me and tell me that you were fucking other people?”
Jeonghan’s confusion evaporated from his face almost instantly. His mouth closed and his fingers closed around your wrist.
“Maybe we should talk about this somewhere less public,” he mumbled.
“Why? You don’t want everyone to know? You lied to me about fucking other people.”
You grabbed a random girl.
“Want to fuck Yoon Jeonghan?” You asked. “Well, you can’t! Because he is only sleeping with me and yet is telling me that he is sleeping with someone else regardless.”
Jeonghan sharply tugged your wrist, and the girl gave you a weird look, but walked away with a slight reciprocated bow towards Jeonghan.
“Look we can talk about this,” Jeonghan insisted. “Just… Can’t you just come upstairs?”
You didn’t know why but you were mad. Too mad at Jeonghan to want to be rational. You hit his chest to which he sighed, wrapped his arms around your waist and tugged you up over his shoulder.
You yelped, causing a couple of people to glance over at the two of you. Embarrassment filled your body, more so even then when people referenced your sexual relationship with Jeonghan.
You hit Jeonghan on the back.
“Put me down Jeonghan!” You insisted.
“Just let me take you upstairs,” Jeonghan argued back.
It wasn’t that you didn’t feel safe. You always felt safe with Jeonghan. No matter how rough he was being, you knew at the end of the day he wouldn’t do anything you didn’t want him to do. A closed door conversation was exactly the thing that you two needed.
But fuck that.
“I think Jennie’s texting me,” you blurted at the top of your lungs. Jeonghan’s entire body froze and he had you steady on the ground so fast that you felt the world spin a little. Your eyes tried to focus on him, but for some reason you were crying.
“I’m sorry,” Jeonghan said softly and from what you could see of him (blurry Jeonghan was still stupidly attractive and serious) he did look like a reflection of his words.
“Don’t call me, Jeonghan.”
And with that you turned on your heel and left the party.

I did NOT know that they had that kind of person on team with the Poison episode 😬😬 yikes.
I feel like there are a LOT of things that I could go on about it over (ya know...about the blatant blasphemy everywhere in it). The sympathetic lucifer story, the twisted Eden backstory, the angel's being Like That (I mean I guess you can look at it like "Some Christians act this way towards people because they think being Christian makes them better than others" but there is a better way to address that than the way this show is)....I fear that the day will come that they use a God/Jesus character and paint Him in a poor light while uplifitng Lucifer. I'm not sure if I would be more angry about that or sad/worried on behalf of the creators of the show.
I can see what feels like wasted potential in the more original aspects of the show. I feel like it could have been so much better if she had taken the original ideas/characters and the idea of redemption/forgivness and then placed them all in a fictional separate world that didn't include, as you said, the obvious blasphemy. I enjoy the music, the animation/art style (granted the pilot's animation was preferable).
....I feel like they were just trying to make St. Peter look like a stereotypical youth pastor. And one of the songs says "It'll take time to cover my vast multitude of sins" and I can't help but be like "that isn't hOW thAt WORKs"
I appriciate your response. It's good to see a lot of my thoughts were shared. I have difficulties pulling myself out of things when I get pulled in, so I've had some time to really think about the things that COULD have been good and the things that take away from it as a whole, what I'd have done differently, etc.
I've just taken to praying for the people who have worked on it and hoping they have the decency to not put "God" or "Jesus" on screen in the next season and make them awful. (Though I guess I did KNOW that they couldn't proceed with the show without taking a lot of things out the the Bible and twisting it around).
(I won't bother ya anymore with it btw. Some of it did just genuinely baffle me & I appriciate you taking the time to respond too me <3)
I'm sooo getting tired of media making satan 'misunderstood' lol. it got old fast, and there are some people who actually try to say the show is accurate 😭 I saw someone claim that it's true that satan wanted best for humans and that was why he was kicked from heaven. they clearly never read the Bible seeing that satan wanted to dethrone God.
yeah I could see they're trying to criticize Christians who basically do whatever they want (being hateful and evil in a different way) but still think they're going to heaven. but like you said, it coulda been done better than the show did lol
ikr, it had so much potential. and I do admit a few of the songs get stuck in my head from time to time, especially when a clip of the show appears on my tiktok FYP lol.
they probably took some doctrines from catholicism for that line XD don't they believe people will still go through some trails to pay for their sins even if they're saved? uhhh purgatory? lol
no problem! and oh gosh, yeah same, I hope they never add God/Jesus in it 😬 thankfully from the intro, it made it look like multiple angelic beings were technically the 'gods' who created earth. I'm sure they'd get a 'helluva' lot of backlash if they actually put Jesus in it.
also I don't mind if you wanna share more thoughts on the show or anything else. even if I take a while to answer asks, my ask box is always open 😊👍

The pain of being bullied into an additional figure skating lesson and the annoying weekend trip into Manhattan vs the fun of actually figure skating once I get there and enjoying working on all my new skills. This is what they mean by balance.
