Sunset Tears: SKZ

W/c: 2.4k

Hyunjin x Fem Reader

Summary: Confessing your feelings to someone is super duper, incredibly, terribly hard. Especially when that person is a blockhead and literally does not have a brain.

A/N: I’m not even going to lie to you, the Howl’s Moving Castle soundtrack heavily inspired me for this one. Especially the song: You’re in Love even though it's like a minute long. Also the songs, Here with Me by d4vd and Let You Break My Heart Again by Laufey. Yes, I know, it's so sappy haha. Enjoy!

*Use of some profanity, not excessive.

Masterlist!

“Yah! Hwang Hyunjin!”

The poor man nearly fell out of his seat as you yelled at the top of your lungs.

“How could you forget our date?” You entered the apartment and didn’t even bother to kick off your shoes like he preferred you to. Hyunjin looked up at you with bewildered eyes. Then, the realization hit him.

“Wait- I can explain-”

“You don’t have to explain anything to me, Hyunjin. You left me at the park entrance for an hour. I thought you were coming!” You were almost yelling. He quickly got up and tried to reach for you but was denied when you turned your back on him.

“Forget it. I’m going home. You’re lucky I even came here.”

“Wait, Y/N-”

“No Hyunjin. I just need to go.” You locked eyes with him and hoped that your depressing face would at least hurt his feelings a little. He stood in disbelief, almost unsure how to react to the whole thing. Quickly turning, you muttered, “I can’t believe you,” and slammed the door behind you, leaving Hyunjin speechless and frankly upset too.

Thinking back, all those moments you waited for him were pointless. The way you stood outside like an idiot for an hour today, showing up way too early to his concerts, giving him unnecessary things like paint and pictures. All of it was a waste. You had been trying so hard to show him you had feelings for him ever since he stated that he liked when people showed their feelings in actions. Well, too bad he was a literal blockhead.

You sighed and continued your walk out of his apartment complex. You weren’t sure if you were glad or angry that he didn’t follow you out. For a brief moment, you considered calling someone but the thing was- Hyunjin was your best friend.

All you wanted at that moment was to tell him how you felt. You felt hot, stinging tears threaten to fall from your eyes and a heavy lump in your throat. You felt embarrassment at even trying to go for a guy like him. He was perfect in every way.

Even though he always complained about being “bitchless” and “having no game,” he still attracted so many people. You laughed at the memory of Hyunjin sprawling on the grass at the park and uttering those words. He was handsome, creative, so empathetic to your struggles, he made an effort to know everything about you and even came to you when he struggled. Endless efforts seemed to be wasted for a girl like you. You felt average. What could you give to your best friend that he didn’t already have? Right now, it seemed like he had rocks for brains so maybe that, but otherwise- he had everything he could ever want. You wiped your tears away and sped up your pace, hoping that you could reach your apartment before nightfall.

Today was supposed to be your picnic at the park with him, but you had waited at the agreed meeting spot for over an hour before deciding to call it quits. He agreed to bring paints and paint with you at sunset, but he never showed. And it wasn’t his first time bailing out on you too. You were just about done with it all. This made you angrily stomp up the stairs.

The sun continued to dip under the skyline as you made it to your front door. Living on the top of a building, you could see the entire city skyline spread out before you. Hyunjin once mentioned he loved this view and really wanted to paint it sometime, to which you suggested the picnic and he had happily agreed.

You stopped to watch the sunset as you thought of all the times you made the effort to show him you really cared. Leaning on the rail, you watched the vibrant hues of pink and orange highlight the sky then turn into deeper shades of violet and blue. The rate of this transformation comforted you, reminding you that things change and life goes on. Feeling a little less shitty, you unlocked your front door and dropped all your stuff next to your bed. At least your bed would always be there for you.

You must have fallen asleep, you realized as you woke up. Your head felt heavy and your throat was swollen from crying. Loud bangs on your door reminded you why you even woke up in the first place. Ughhhhh. You thought of the fact that you had work tomorrow. Even though your boss might get mad, you resolved to just call off. More loud bangs.

“Hold on, I’m coming!” You managed to yell before shivering and pulling on your thickest hoodie. You almost tripped on the picnic basket on your way to the door.

You peeked out the door peephole. It was that asshole. Oh my god.

Without even opening the door, you yelled, “What are you doing here at..” You looked at the clock. “Hyunjin, it's 3 in the damn morning!” You continued to observe him through the peephole.

“I know, I’m so sorry Y/n. I came to apologize.” He seemed to be holding a convenience store bag in his hands as he shifted his weight nervously from one leg to another one. You took him all in. His hair was disheveled. He seemed out of breath. His hoodie was wrinkly. He was gripping his phone and a flashlight in one hand, and the bag in another. He just looked worried. You sighed and repressed that lump in your throat again. You spoke again. “Hwang, you better have a good reason to show up at my door at 3 in the morning.” You struggled to get out the last words, tears threatening to ruin your voice. Clearly, you were not handling this very well. Hyunjin thought carefully before speaking again.

“Y/n. I am so sorry. Can you open the door? I just want to talk about this.” He stared at the sky and took a deep breath. “I’m such an asshole, but can you please just give me like a minute?” You closed your eyes and banged your head on the door. Hyunjin jumped from the sound.

“Y/n? Are you okay?” He took a step closer to the door.

You swung the door open and hugged yourself, leaving him to continue what he was saying.

To your surprise and some would even call horror, Hyunjin set down the things he was carrying and got down on his knees. “Hyunjin- wait-” You reached out and he put a hand up to stop you. “No, I am doing this and you can’t stop me.” He dramatically said.

“Oh my god, you’re crazy.”

“I know.” He chuckled and settled onto the heels of his feet.

“Y/n, I am so very sorry I hurt you. I didn’t mean to leave you by yourself. I didn’t know how much that would hurt you and I never want you to feel like that again. I brought you your favorite green tea in hopes that you would accept my apology.” He looked up at you with puppy eyes. The tip of his nose was red from the cold.

“Hyunjin, this is ridiculous. Please get up.” You retorted.

“Not until you reply to my apology.” He firmly held his position.

You shivered. “At least come inside. It’s so cold out here,” You tried to entice him. Despite his firm position, Hyunjin immediately grabbed his items, got up and ran through the door. You just scoffed,closed the door behind you and turned on the bedroom lamp. Hyunjin stood awkwardly, not knowing whether to put the bag down or to hold it. You gestured to the table and he gently placed it down.

You both stared at each other, not knowing who should speak first. “Hyunjin-”

“Y/n-” He laughed and scratched his head. You just sat down on your messed up bed and blushed. You hated how he still got you worked up, even after messing with your feelings. You hated how inconsiderate he was, even though he had no idea what he did to you.

“You go first.” He flatly said. You were unsure of what to say.

“I don’t really know how to say this but what you did hurt my feelings Hyunjin,” you started softly. With a deep breath to keep the tears at bay, you continued. “You’re so confusing. You say you like actions and acts of dedication, but when I do it, it seems like you are blind.” A couple seconds of silence. “I always put so much effort into seeing you. You’re so important to me, I don’t know how else to say it.” You stared at your cat socks. Suddenly you were blushing and the floor was much more interesting than his face.

“Y/n?” Hyunjin whispered. You looked at him, searching for anything in his expression. All you got was confusion staring back at you.

“First of all, discounting the emotional implications- how could you leave me out there multiple times?” You struggled to find the words that screamed, how could you not care about me that much? How could you? You wiped a tear away. Hyunjin reached up to wipe it away for you but he refrained.

“I’m so sorry Y/n. I don’t know what came over me. You are so important to me. I’ll never do it again, I promise.” His answer didn’t satisfy you. How could he be so thickheaded? How could he blatantly ignore your feelings? You wanted to scream. Men.

“Can you say anything else than I’m sorry?” You whispered at him. He took a step towards you.

“Y/n, I-” He caught himself before continuing.

“You really must be stupid then.” You scoffed and covered your mouth with your palm in disbelief. Hyunjin dropped his gaze and stared at his face.

“Y/n, I thought you liked someone else. I didn’t show up because I was overthinking about how you could possibly still hang out with someone like me.” He raised his head and searched your eyes. You laughed and cried.

“Hyunjin, you’re so stupid.” Laughter took over your body. Hyunjin was very confused by this yet he continued.

“I thought you liked Felix! I was jealous,” He pouted. “I really was pitying myself Y/n. I thought I lost you!” He frantically tried explaining. You just groaned.

“Oh my god Hyunjin, you actually have rocks for brains! I like you! Dare I say, even I love you.” You stood up and faced him. There was a strange feeling in your stomach. Whether it was nervousness, fear or excitement, you couldn’t tell. “Hwang Hyunjin, why do you think I waited for a whole hour? I showed up to your concerts and held up ridiculous Hyunjin signs! I organized a paint and picnic sunset date for god sake!” You emphasized. He was at a loss for words. Your face felt hot from blushing and being angry at the same time. His ears got red as he connected the dots.

“Wait, so you don’t like Felix?” He questioned you. You sighed in annoyance.

“No, Hyunjin. I do not like Felix.” You chuckled and shook your head. A smile quickly formed on his face.

“So that means? -”

“Yes, Hyunjin. I like you. I always have. And probably always will.” You looked at him expectedly. He covered his face, probably from the embarrassment of this whole misunderstanding. You peeled his hands back.

“Can I hug you?” You softly asked. It was almost like begging. He gazed at you softly and nodded. The impact from the two of you crashing together nearly took your breath away.

“I’ve been waiting for this for so long,” you whispered.

“Me too.” He said, his voice muffled by your hair. He squeezed you and you felt his chest contract. Was he crying?

“Please tell me you like me back. I said it like twice,” you laughed into his chest and rubbed his back to comfort him.

“I am so incredibly sorry Y/n. I spent so long pitying myself, I didn’t realize that you were showing me this whole time.” He sniffled. “Of course I like you. I’ll always like you, even more than Felix could ever like you.” You laughed and sniffed back tears.

“You’re ridiculous. Oh my gosh.” He pulled away and smiled through his tears. You caressed his face and wiped a tear away. “Always for the theatrics now, aren’t we?” You smiled and he nodded.

“I can’t help it. The woman I love said she likes me back.”

“Hey, I said it first, so technically you said you liked me back.” You continued to gently hold his cheek. He leaned into your hand and kissed your palm.

“Hyunjin?”

“Yea?”

“I forgive you.”

“Thanks.” He laughed and sniffled again. “Can I kiss you?” he whispered, as if someone might hear.

“Yea you big baby. Kiss me” You quickly responded before leaning in.

The moment his lips met yours, you knew he always liked you. You knew he had been waiting for this all along. You felt the softness of his lips and the way he was so gentle with yours. You felt his emotion and desperate hope that you would return his feelings. You leaned in and wrapped your arms around his neck, almost knocking him over. He smiled and held you strongly, happy to oblige the deeper kiss. All the pent up frustration left you as you held your eyes closed and smiled into his kiss. He pulled away, breathless, and said, “I love you Y/n. You don’t have to say it back right now but I want you to know I really do.” He leaned his forehead against yours.

“I love you too. Just don’t ever leave me high and dry like that again.” You sternly said. With a devilish grin, he attacked your lips with his, ready to never let you go. You were content to oblige.
