Surprise LIVE!
NCT : 안녕 여러본~~ [180316]
| warnings | none
-> aria spends some time in the practice room, with an unexpected guest.
Tumblr media
A: hi hi everyone! how are you? 
aria is sitting with her back against a white wall, her legs out in front of her as she rests the camera against the mirrors. it looks like she is in a practice room, given the oversized hoodie she is wearing, along with the lack of makeup.
A: it’s not too late for anyone, right? i don’t want to keep anyone awake 😡 if it’s late for you go to bed! you can watch again in the morning
@/lenjoo10: unnie, did you sleep well? have you eaten? 
A: yes! i’m waiting for yuta to finish in the other room, because apparently i’m not allowed walk home after it gets dark
she gestures with her arm towards the door, making a playfully scowling face.
A: he’s taking forever, so i decided i’d come talk to you guys! you’ll keep me company while i wait, right? 
@/luylhaech: of course! make sure you eat when you get home 🤬
A: 😅 yes yes i will, geez. sometimes i think you all are worse than the boys 
the comments flood with objections, saying that they just want her to stay healthy and safe. 
A: oh god ok i’m sorry! i’m sorry i’m sorry, thank you for taking care of me everyone 🥰
she bowed her head slightly to the camera, holding up her hands in an attempt to stop the onslaught of comments.
A: aah ah no you’re all typing too fast! i can’t read them all, hold on a moment. 
@/jaemia183: riri do you have any movie recommendations?
A: for movies? i'm not sure. yesterday i made mark watch howl's moving castle with me again, if that's something.
A: he acted annoyed but i know he loves that movie as much as i do
A: that movie is one of those movies i watched when i was a kid ~ i remember downloading it onto my mother's laptop so i could watch it on planes and long trips
A: 😅 i'm pretty sure i wasn't meant to do that, but i've seen it so often i can probably quote it now
aria ran a hand through her hair, fiddling with the strands that fell over her shoulders
@/thetenthwish: where are the others? 
A: hm, the others? well i know yuta is in the opposite room right now, but he’s working so i can’t get him for you... and a lot of the other boys have already gone home because they have a- thing tomorrow.
aria’s eyes opened wide at her slip of the tongue before she frantically tried to cover it up. her arms waved about and the mic on the phone picked up her legs kicking slightly on the hardwood floor.
@/jaehuina: ARIAA WHAT DID YOU SPOIL WHATS HAPPENING TOMORROW 
@/peachbliss: everyone say goodbye to aria its been nice knowing u
@/doiejei: is that the sound of the sm dungeon door clanging shut?
A: shushhh you’re all going to get me in trouble 😳 can we keep this a secret? for me? 
the comments rush past with affirmatives, and aria relaxed slightly back against the wall.  
A: ah i might owe you my life. taeyongie oppa would kill me - if you're watching this, oppa! nczennie will keep my secret for me, they promised 🥺
aria’s phone buzzes against the wall where she had put it down after reading through some comments. a small ping sounded, indicating a message had been sent to her inbox
A: oh? that might be yuta, i should check that ~
aria leant down to pick up her phone, clicking into the home screen and swiping up the messaging app. her face morphed into surprise before she quickly schooled her expression into something less alarming.
A: ah, i’m sorry everyone, i think yuta is going to be later than he expected and he told me to apologize to you all 😕
@/yukki24: has left the livestream
@/nczeci: has left the livestream
A: but! someone new is going to come pick me up, so i can stay and chat for a bit longer hehe
@/buiconasi: WHO OMG HAVE WE MET THEM BEFORE
A: have you met him before? no i don’t think so, not on a vlive yet... only once or twice i’d say. are you excited? 
A: hm, shall we play a guessing game to figure out who it is?
@/junno2567: nooo just tell us :(
A: ahh but where’s the fun in that! ok ok, ill give you all a hint and see if that helps ~ he’s very tall 🥰
@/titibunsa: ARIA EVERYONE IS TALL TO U THAT DOESNT HELP
@/gothavan: johnny?? 
@/jaemintea2: is it winwin?
A: no, its not an 127 oppa... 
@/jeangimia: is it a new manager or someone? 
@/guraheza: omg please just tell usssss
aria opened her mouth as if to speak, but was silenced by a short knock on the door of the practice room. her head turned to the door off-screen, and she smiled at the person as they entered. 
A: here he is everyone!
lucas popped his head into the frame.
L: heyo~ 
@/haneimi: OMG HI
@/aquarisuh: LUCASSSS 
aria watched the messages on vlive fill up with greetings for lucas, smiling as she turned slightly to watch lucas’ eyes dart quickly over them all, as if he was trying to read each individual message before it got pushed up by more incoming.
A: ta-da ~ lucas was the one coming to get me! i don’t think anyone guessed him, so its still a surprise
L: no one guessed me? 😖
@/taeminniee: NO WE’RE SORRY 
@/realmch1: ARIA THOSE WERE TERRIBLE HINTS 
A: are you slandering my hint-giving skills 
L: i don’t think you’re very good at giving hints riri, if they couldn’t guess who i was at all 
@/onet2ne1: RIRI THATS SO CUTE IM CRYING 
L: is riri cute? ive always called you riri... is that cute? 
@/enthusnctisct: YES THATS ADORABLE HOW LONG HAVE U TWO KNOWN EACH OTHER 
A: hm,,, maybe. two years? 
L: yeah about that
A: i met him during training - he was sitting outside my practice room and not his own
L: no no i don’t think they need to hear this story, actually i think we need to go now the others are waiting
aria was laughing now, hands pushing away lucas’s arms that had come to wrap around her in an attempt to pull her off screen
A: and and he was waiting for a good, half hour before i arrived and told him that his practice was happening down the hall in the next room 
lucas groaned and put his head in his hands 
A: I could hear him getting scolded through the walls over my music 😂
L: stop it stop it that’s enoughhhhh 
aria poked playfully at lucas’ side, who curls up to protect himself. 
@/honijoo: aria stop being mean to him :( he looks upset
A: its okay nczennie, im not being mean ! he has so many stories to tell about me that i know he will 😡 so im trying to even the playing field before he embarrasses me enough that i cant show my face 😔
this time, lucas’ phone buzzed from his pocket. he pulled it out to check the new notification, before nodding slightly. 
L: riri, i think we have to go now 
A: already? how long has it been- oh GOD its been nearly an hour ok bye czennie! hopefully we don’t get in too much trouble byee byee!

THE AWARD NOMINATED FIC CONTINUES! Now nominated for the 2020 3rd Quarterly Inuyasha fandom awards for best dark! This is the second time I've been nominated for best dark, you guys trying to tell me something? LOL! Maybe I should post a comedy soon? I do love writing a dark plot for Inuyasha though...
Speaking of posting fics, I have a couple up to bat for next. I was wondering if you guys would be interested in having a say? I could post the choices on Tumblr? If that is something you'd want or if you don't tumble and want me to post them in my ANs, let me know!
Thank you all for your support. Another nomination... I mean I was blown away with the first one! This really is a great Fandom. I had honestly considered leaving fanfiction completely until I entered this one. Now I want to stay! My originals are going to suffer but oh well I guess. I'm almost done with one original and I'm super excited about it! I might take a small break from originals once it's done and out to publishers to work on some fanfiction. I also still don't have a keyboard, typing on my screen currently. If I thought I had gorilla fingers before... Top of my list to finish, Daddy Issues (SM) and STYH.
Anyway, enjoy all!

Chapter Eight
"Didn't...Inuyasha say something about a six-year-old?" Kagome asked, pulling a stool near and sitting to listen intently to Miroku.
"Inuyasha was six, living with his mother with no word from his father when he met Naraku. His father was never in his life and his mother didn't know a damn thing about demons. So when Naraku found Inuyasha and tried to pull him into his gang, Inuyasha cried as loud and as hard as he could about the bad man trying to steal him. Naraku fought back against the cops, of course, but this was around the time that anti-demon repulsion was coming into fashion. Naraku didn't know what hit him and it was all thanks to Inuyasha that the cops even knew what to use on the fucker."
"Okay.. so Naraku hates Inuyasha. With the looks around the yard, I would think that would be in his favor?"
Miroku huffed, "Yes and no. Naraku will crush anything that Inuyasha touches so no one touches him. And Naraku was one of the demons that helped in the purge."
"Hold on, is that what demon killer meant?"
"Yes. The purge of 06 was carried out by demons."
She felt sick, swallowing thickness beach down her throat. "Why would demons do that to each other?"
"Well, ones like Sesshomaru were promised their freedom. Which of course they didn't get. But Naraku… he did it for power. And the idiots that ran this place back then let him get away with consuming countless demons before cutting him off. He killed about a hundred demons and thirty humans that day."
"You were there?"
"No. I'm not that old! Geez, woman! No, my father was there. He was a guard once before his curse consumed him."
She brushed the back of his cursed hand. "It will consume you too?"
Miroku nodded and moved on quickly. A sore subject. "Inuyasha's reputation isn't helped by the fact that he put a lot of the demons in here."
Her head was starting to spin. "Inuyasha was part of the Anti-Demon Squad?"
"Ug. Always hated that name. So contrite."
"You were on it too?"
"Yes. We were partners. Hence why he tolerates me. But then the tables turned and we were the ones on the wanted boards. All because he has demon blood in his veins and my curse."
"I was thrown in here, too, for being different." They had a short moment of solidarity and moved on. "If you both hunted demons then why does no one hurt the people you touch?"
Without saying a word, he lifted his cursed hand and waved it. "I'm also not a half-demon. That's frowned upon by both sides apparently. Never bothered me. Who he's related to also doesn't help. Plus, I don't have Naraku gunning for me. Inuyasha never had a chance, getting thrown in here."
"Couldn't he have lobbied for a different prison? There are at least… three?"
Miroku shook his head, "the public wasn't told this, but after the purge, they knocked it down to one prison."
"But..but...that means…"
"All the caught demons are all right here in one convenient spot. Cuts down on funding"
"So if this place becomes overpopulated again…"
"Luckily new demons don't come in much anymore. With people like me and Inuyasha no longer on the force," Miroku gloated, "they don't catch that many anymore."
She huffed, "for such a good demon catcher, you'd think you'd avoid getting caught!"
"Yes, well, what do all humans end up getting caught up in no matter how hard they try?"
It took her no time at all to figure that one out. "You? And Inuyasha?"
"Inuyasha's girlfriend turned him in while I," he sighed heavily at the memory, "I was turned in by one hell of an enchantress."
Kagome had gotten caught saving the man she once loved. There was nothing she could say on the subject, she was just as pathetic as they were.
"Inuyasha is just trying to protect you the only way he can. If everyone thinks he hates you, they'll leave you alone. Although now I'm not so sure there's a point. Looks like Naraku has it out for you regardless. What did you do to get in his sights?"
Rolling her eyes and her stool away, she started straightening up to leave. "I took some blood. He didn't want me to but I didn't have a choice! The Warden was breathing down my neck. I don't regret it, doing it got me this infirmary and now I can do what I love, helping people."
"They're not people, Kagome. They're demons."
"Same difference!"
"No. Not really. If it weren't for the runes they wouldn't even need a Doctor."
"Well there are runes and I am needed."
"Runes or not, you're definitely needed here, Kagome."
She was still thinking it over, but now she was sure. A talk with the Warden was a necessity.
oOo
It didn't take as long as she expected for the Warden to find time for her, stopping by the infirmary. And he didn't give her a fight on her sleeping in there either like she thought he would. Either her argument, being ready even in the middle of the night to help and not needing much guarding like the demons in the prison, worked really well or Onigumo had other reasons. She didn't kid herself, the grin he wore the entire conversation told her it was the latter.
What he gained from her being here, she didn't know but she gained as well, getting away from Inuyasha.
Miroku's story that day had been nice, it was good to know someone in here had a heart. But it also showed her what having a heart did to people here. Inuyasha would forever suffer more than the other inmates. They could connect with others, maybe even fall in love and have some kind of life in here. Inuyasha could never have that.
So really, she was doing him a favor. Getting out of his hair would only make things easier for him. This way, he no longer had to force himself to care or not about her.
Inuyasha wasn't in the cell when she got her things, a few extra pairs of scrubs was all she had, and she was glad for that. The last thing she wanted to do was explain and see the relief spread across his face. Now a few weeks later and she almost never saw Inuyasha, proof positive that he was glad to be rid of her and she tried not to let it bother her.
It was a good thing, that didn't mean she was happy about it.
Now the keys to the infirmary were hers for good, locking everything away and pocketing the keys when the door opened. Koga was leaning heavily on one of his men, blood dripping to the floor. Pointing to the bed without a word, she got the needed items and pushed her stool to his side. His friend left, shutting the door behind him.
"What happened?"
Koga glanced at the wound like it was nothing, a long and angry line that continued to drip blood on the floor would be nothing but a scratch to a demon under normal circumstances. "Your friend attacked me."
"Excuse me?" Her disbelief was rolling off her tongue.
"Kagura. I think she was hoping for solitary. Wants to be back beside her man."
That actually made sense. Sesshomaru got a couple days a week out of solitary and those days were spent enjoying the cooler days outside or with Kagura. Usually both at the same time. It was really endearing, the cool-headed Sesshomaru falling at the feet of the hot-tempered Kagura. She should really have a conversation with Kagura, see if she could get her to come to the infirmary for a private meeting.
"Kagome," Koga grabbed one of her hands and stopped her work, "I'm glad we have a moment together like this. I wanted to give you another chance to think about my offer…"
She pulled roughly from his hold. "I told you, no. I don't need or want your protection…"
"Why? Because you have the Hanyou's?" She remained silent and Koga snickered, "He won't protect you. Not from everything. And he's nothing compared to Naraku, who has a hardon for you."
They both ignored the small jump in her chest at the mention of that name. "Naraku is locked away in solitary."
"For now. They let him out every now and then you know? Not as often as Sesshomaru, obviously. And there are other things to be protected from."
Kagome hadn't had many struggles since she'd been here, focusing on wrapping his wound instead of his words. Because they were false. "I'm fine."
"Of course you are! Because of me! The only reason you've had it so good is because I've kept you from the worst of it this whole time!" He shouted at the top of her head.
He was like a child, acting out when he didn't get the attention he wanted. So she didn't give him what he wanted, continuing to watch her hands. "I'd prefer it to being your woman. I know what happens to them."
Silence rang out for a few solitary moments. Then Koga took her hand again, stopping her work to her agitation. "It wouldn't be like that, Kagome. I… I like you. I want you to myself."
Throughout her life, Kagome had received a few confessions. Each time it was a shock. She never once thought of herself as someone 'wanted' or 'likable' like that. She was self-confident to a healthy level, but she never took the time to consider others romantically. Even Hojo, it took her some time to collect herself and give him an answer when he confessed. But, even though it was a surprise, she knew she felt nothing of the kind back to Koga.
"I… appreciate that. And your protection. But I can't give you anything more than friendship. I'm sorry."
Roaring, he got up at that, standing over the bed and her with a glare that had his eyes glowing. "You'll regret this, Doctor."
His continued immaturity was on full display as he stomped out. Kagome just found it annoying. She made it through her younger years unscathed only to get locked up and deal with bullies like this? It would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.
oOo
It started out small, the differences in 'life without Koga's protection'. Mostly just more kid's stuff.
The nods she used to get turned from grimaces to indifference thanks to Naraku, making the hazing that much easier to occur. Someone would walk by her at lunch and tug her hair. It hurt but it wasn't enough to scare her into Koga's arms. Next, it was shoving. In line for food, out in the yard, walking around in the halls. Then tripping.
All they were really doing was making her look and feel like a klutz.
Combine the three and it hurt pretty bad though, especially when they didn't let go of her hair until after she hit the floor hard. By now she knew who to look for too. And for some reason, it was Koga's women. That had her a little worried that things would only get worse and that he would eventually send his men after her. No way was she going to break though, she refused to be someone's bitch. She'd rather be beaten to a pulp.
Which was very likely to happen before Koga's pack went all out, his women clustering around her for another dose of 'life'. They had already gotten her in the cafeteria today but it looked like they were upping their treatment, coming up from behind as usual.
Hands on her back, she knew what was coming and stepped to the side. This didn't stop them from tripping her but it did keep them from getting a hold on her hair. Her long braided cord was still aching from when they tried to rip it from her head earlier. Her side step put her on a different path, one that had her colliding with another body once she lost her equilibrium. Or rather had it forced from her instead of lost.
It was the first time in weeks she hadn't face planted to the floor. Instead, her face was planted firmly in a chest that had hands wrapped around her biceps. "Oi watch where you're going!"
Slowly lifting her head, Kagome prayed she'd heard wrong but it was undeniable even before golden eyes glared down at her. She had successfully avoided Inuyasha since the day she moved into the infirmary. Three weeks of not seeing his molten orbs on her and now she was practically on top of him.
She wasn't a fool. He was avoiding her too. How else could it be possible, a large jail but not that large, that she didn't see so much as a wisp of his white locks disappearing around a corner? He wasn't avoiding her now, his hands still on her even as she got her bearings. His glare quickly passed from her to the women softly cackling behind her. Their laughter stopped but Kagome knew their hazing was far from finished.
The women moved on but Inuyasha still had his hands on her, slowly turning from holding to rubbing. "You alright?"
She shrugged off his question but not his touch, missing it more than she cared to admit. "I'm fine. Nothing I can't handle."
"Koga is trying to pressure you…"
"I know," she sighed, "he confessed to me a few weeks ago…" Inuyasha tensed but she ignored it, "I told him I just wanted to be friends…"
Now he laughed, the sound echoing off the walls and a few others that passed by. Inuyasha didn't seem to have any struggle being seen touching her all of a sudden. But there weren't many around to see this. "I wish I could have been there to see that!"
"You didn't need to be. Because he responded the same as he is now. Childish pranks and hazing. People are so immature here!"
"Demons," he corrected her again, "and most have been locked up in here since before puberty. They don't know how to act like adults." His hold dropped and he started to back away. "So how did kids in your schools act when they didn't get their way?"
She knew the answer and she didn't like it. "I get it. Any advice on making it stop?"
He was leaving her behind so she followed at a distance. "If Koga wants you to be his 'girl' then there's really only one way to make it stop. Unless you want to be his?"
Turning to look at her over his shoulder, Inuyasha teased her in a manner that had her wondering if he was actually curious. "Yeah, that's a big 'no'."
He chuckled, turning back around. If anyone were to watch them it would look like she was just walking behind him, not that they were having a conversation. "Then you gotta become someone else's bitch."
"Nope. No way. Forget it, I'll just take the hazing."
He stopped and spun to face her. "Even if that includes getting your bones turned to paste? Can't help others with only one arm."
"I'm a Doctor in a jail infirmary. Not a surgeon in the cancer ward. One arm will serve me well enough." His eyes went impossibly wide at that but she ignored it. "Can I pretend to be someones? Like you?"
Taking a step, he removed the distance between them. "I don't pretend."
Maybe he was trying to scare her? It was pointless, she didn't fear Inuyasha in the slightest. Of all the people here, he was the only one she trusted to the fullest. It was why her heart picked up its pace whenever he was close. The fact that he was drop-dead gorgeous didn't help though, his strong jaw flexing more the longer she held her ground and head up to him. Crossing her arms over her chest and hoping to muffle the sound, she took a slow and deep breath. Not to speak, but to breathe in his Earthy scent that she had missed.
"Okay."
He broke first, shaking his head. "No. Even faking a relationship with me would only bring you more trouble."
"Would it? Naraku already has it out for me. And everyone here may hate me but they won't touch me thanks to my Doctor status."
His mouth hung open for a moment, thoughts turning in his head. But then it slammed shut and he seethed. "Miroku."
"Yep."
"What else did that damn gossip tell you?"
She kept her mouth shut and shook her head. Anything else that Miroku had told her was more like hearsay, it didn't really tell her anything about the man before her. And she rather hear the details from Inuyasha when he was ready, not forced to explain.
"Doesn't matter. Things would only get worse if you associate with me. Which, you know or you wouldn't be living in the infirmary." His tone was accusing and she took great offense.
"I moved out so you'd have one less thing to worry about. Besides, I was tired of the angry puppy routine."
"Dog references. Nice." He said with a grimace.
"You're welcome!" She smirked.
She watched the corners of his mouth fight with him for a moment, wanting to smile but not before her so they ended up twitching. "You should talk to Miroku. I'm sure he'd looove to have you as his 'bitch'."
Kagome wasn't too sure about that but Inuyasha knew him better than she did. Giving him a nod, she expected the 'conversation' to end. Except Inuyasha reached up and gently pulled the small elastic out of her hair. She never asked how but Kagura had given her a few from her 'stash' of hair supplies. And now it was around Inuyasha's wrist like a bracelet.
While her hair still maintained its shape, it was only a matter of seconds before it completely unfurled. That wasn't fast enough for Inuyasha, carefully loosening her strands until they fell apart, a long cape down her back. He stared at her for a few more heart-pounding seconds, breathing in deeply like she had moments ago when he got close and her lungs weren't restricted from his actions.
"Just wear your hair up and out of reach. It won't be much longer till they cut it off like a trophy. Probably what Koga wants them to do the most."
Swallowing hard, she kept her eyes on his, watching as he looked all around her face, neck, and shoulders. As if drinking her in. "What would he do with something like that?"
Instead of answering her question like a normal person, he reached over and took a handful of her hair. Then pressed it to his nose as an example, closing his eyes as he breathed in her scent deeply. It confused her body because she really liked him smelling her, oddly, but that mixed with the image of Koga doing the same thing. Inuyasha was a dog and Koga a wolf. So although different, they would have many things in common like their addiction to smells. If Kagome went by Inuyasha, she must smell really good to those with sensitive noses.
Suddenly, he dropped her hair and stepped back. She had forgotten that the distance between them wasn't the norm, feeling the heat of his skin on hers he was so close.
Turning on his heels, Inuyasha shoved his hands into his pockets and quickly moved away from her. "Just make sure it's a fake relationship with Miroku."
He called to her, not turning to speak to her as he was too busy getting as far away as possible. Inuyasha was out of sight when she realized he didn't get her back her hair tie.

Ae-jeong [ affection ] chapter 1 : The first encounter
Tumblr media
Pairings: NCT Jaehyun X OC/You
Genre: Romance, thriller, romancethriller, best friend to lover, fluff
Haewon POV
The day of the incident, December 1st 2018
SM’s Office
I heaved a sigh of relief at successfully holding the elevator door before it closed, grimacing slightly because today I decided to go to the office with heels as high as 5cm. I exhaled annoyed and took off my heels, -the hell- with all of this I will be barefoot through the cold floor of the SM office in this winter.
   "Your feet are all scratched" I turned around and Jaehyun with his black hoodie was frozen while leaning his body against the wall.
   "Shit, Jaehyun, since when were you here?" I asked.
   "Since a while ago, didn't the doctor say you shouldn't be carrying heavy things for a while?" Jaehyun asked then took the box I had been carrying.
   "This is your v live property for today's live broadcast" I dodged, trying to avoid his sharp gaze.
   "Is there no male staff in the NCT team?" Jaehyun asked coldly. If he has that look, that means I have to be careful, otherwise, he can explode in this elevator.
   "There are tons of them, but you know how hectic it was. The other members just had to take off the accessories while running around, and then this box was left behind and by chance, I was still in the basement. So that's how it is," I explained at length. He remains silent, which make everything more awkward. Then silence broke out between the two of us, and if it's like this I don't know what to do. When I was little, every time Jaehyun sulked I would reluctantly have to share my weekly ice cream portion for him, and we will make it up again. But now, it would be very strange if suddenly ice cream pop up out of nowhere from my pants pocket right? Oh my god, why is going to the 5th floor take so long? Suddenly the elevator stopped on the 3rd floor and the door opened, a bearded man in a full cycling shirt looked at me while grinning like a fool. Yes, my brother. Cousin more precisely
   "My sister?" Said Siwon with a dramatic pretentious face while entering the elevator. Then Siwon with his body still sticky with sweat hugged me.
   "CHOI SIWON ARE YOU CRAZY ?! HOW MUCH HAVE I SAID DON'T HUG ME WHEN YOU ARE ALL SWEATY LIKE THIS?!" I shouted. More precisely, wrath. Fortunately, in this elevator, there are only three of us.
   "Let your brother hug you, it won't kill you ... Soon Oppa has a schedule to Hong Kong so we won't meet again until...maybe at Christmas... Jaehyun? What's up?" Siwon hugs me and just realize that Jaehyun was behind us enjoying our lovely siblinghood moment, which I hate because I don't like it if by chance some workers see it, and start to think that I am the luckiest person on earth by coming from a rich household, being cousins to Siwon and is Jaehyun's best friend. That all happened before I was even born in this world, there is nothing I can do about it.
   "How are you, Hyung? I have a V live schedule on the 6th floor" Jaehyun answered casually.
   "I don't usually see you two together, you said that in the office you want to be professional with each other? Be careful later on becoming the centre of attention" Siwon raised his eyebrows with a happy smile. Look how they are chatting casually while I already want to pass out because I can't breathe in Siwon's arms.
   "Compared to being afraid of being topic of the gossip, it's better to fix your drunk habits, stop rummaging through our family story," I grumbled.
   "Eyy, at that time Oppa made a mistake. Seeing the two of you growing up like this, makes Oppa so emotional "Siwon increasingly tightened his arms and pressed his cheek to mine.
It's annoying to remember that again. Exactly after one year working as Entertainment manager of NCT, I am so glad that everything went peacefully because Jaehyun and I agreed to hide our relationship. But all of that was destroyed because Siwon explained everything very detailed about our 'friendship' at the Halloween Party last year. After midnight, when everyone was half-drunk (except the manager because they had to take the artist home), Siwon went onstage and made a very long speech, talking about how proud he was to see me achieving my dream - yes everyone already knew that you both are cousins since your mother married Choi family's youngest son - and suddenly reveal all the useless things about me and Jaehyun that make all the employees went awed.
"I went back to the basement because my charger was left in the practice room. Then I saw her ran around carrying a box this big" Jaehyun pointed at the large box he was carrying. More precisely like rattling me to Siwon. I gave him a cynical look that was completely ignored by him.
   "Geez, Choi Haewon, you should not have carried this heavy stuff, last month you just had a Lasik surgery, what if the stitches come off? Then you... AWWW Haewon that’s hurt!" Siwon's chatter was interrupted as he grimaced in pain because I just bit his cheeks. It just so happened that the elevator opened on the 5th floor and I left those two annoying humans together.
When I arrived on the 5th floor, many employees were greeting me, a little surprised to see me barefoot while busy staring at the device in my hand. When I entered my cubicle, there were tons of unsign documents on the table. There is a placard with "Haewon Choi / Entertainment Manager of NCT" printed on it. I was just sitting down when Na-ri, the head of the artist planning department came in and brought several boxes with Louis Vuitton written on it.
   "Haewon, we have a problem" Na-ri stood still, shaking her cellphone. I looked at her confused then stood up, looked at the cellphone and read the short message from Louis Vuitton who wanted their items to be returned right now.
   "What? it's like 10 pm and drove to their office will take 2 hours. Oh my god, this is why I don't like it when a high-end brand asks us to do endorsements. After getting what they want, they will suddenly treat us as if we are going to steal it, "I said.
   "How annoying, you should know the bracelet that Taeyong used was immediately out of stock. Taeyong's bracelets were trending all over the internet, yet they treat us like this? it seems like we have to stop doing this just to get a discount for the NCT stage outfit, can't we ask to raise the budget? 10 million won per member doesn't seem to be enough, "said Na-ri.
   "Unfortunately I can't do that, the budget problem is the realm of finance and I don't want to argue with Mr Jang, our budget is at its highest now, we have to cut down a little bit because we have concert upcoming. And don't forget that we are the youngest team in this company, and I don't want to take the risk, that's kinda sensitive in Korean culture" I answered seriously. Mister Jang has been the head of finance at SM for almost 15 years, his hobby is to tell how hard the idol's of that time to have proper accommodation and now we are buying outfit that cost like one freaking car. Suddenly Na-ri's cellphone vibrates, and the owner of these box sends us a message again. I showed the message to Na-ri, with an annoyed face she posed as if to slam the box... which she couldn't possibly do because the price of one item in it could cost her entire salary.
   "Alright, I'll return this right away," Na-ri said while sighing, I patted her back and put the cellphone into her backpack. Na-ri looks very adorable today, I and the other employees almost died out of laughter because Na-ri casually entered the meeting room with a rabbit-shaped backpack, short pink skirt and a white blouse. Fortunately, SM does not have strict regulations on how to dress its employees, in the end, this company is in the field of Entertainment and this type of company is famous for its concession in binding regulations that exist in Korean companies in general.
   "Here, take my car. By the way, NCT's schedule will end in 2 hours, and they will immediately be taken to the dorm by the manager. So you should go straight home. " I give my car key to her.
   "Thank you. Oh, by the way, Seung-ho Oppa (NCT manager) is still sick, can you please find someone to take the members home to the dorm? Today is the last day of NCT Dream's concert, maybe you should start asking anyone besides the managers." Na-ri pleaded and I replied with a happy smile. Finally, my chance came too.
   "Of course I can," I replied with a smile, trying to hide my intentions from her.
   "You ... don't even think about it! Just find someone else who can take the ..." Na-ri's chatter was cut off when I pushed her out and hurriedly closed the door to my room.
Jaehyun POV
10.50 PM
SM's Parking lot
We all just finished Live broadcasting on V app and now we are heading to our van to go back to the dorm. Every end of the year is tiring. No, this year is very tiring because all of us, as in 18 members, is promoting under NCT 2018 project, a Lee Soo Man's project that was finally happened because Haewon- our entertainment manager- felt that this project is going to be a very brilliant marketing step. Well, guess she was not wrong. Almost every day some members do live broadcasts, almost every week we have a schedule to appear on events or TV shows, even last week we just signed an exclusive contract with a sports clothing brand. Everything went according to plan and as artists, we are very proud to make it happens.
I, Doyoung, Haechan and Johnny had just arrived at the parking lot when I saw a woman, a girl to be exact, leaning against our van. She wears jeans with a black coat that almost sank her entire body, barefoot with heels on both of her hands. What was she thinking of not wearing any footwear in this weather? I exhaled annoyed while approaching the girl. The other members, especially Haechan gives dramatic screams and the others have put on a super horror face because our nightmares have finally happened again.
   "Guess who will take you guys home today?" Haewon asked with her sweet smile while leaning in our van.
   "Don't joke, where's Na-ri Noona?" Asked Doyoung while looking around.
   "Na-ri is returning the sponsors' belongings and Seungho Oppa is still sick. Don't ask too many questions and get in quickly. The weather is very cold, you can't catch a cold on this super tight schedule," Haewon explained while with great difficulty trying to open our van's door.
We all decided to trust the girl and sat in the passenger seat with very tense faces. Doyoung, Haechan, Johnny and Taeyong looked very pale while watching her trying to adjust the height of the driver's chair.
   "Haewon, the button is on your door," Johnny said with a sigh.
   "Oh, thank you, Johnny," Haewon replied with a grin.
   "Johnny Hyung, how about you just drive?" Haechan asked Johnny.
   "Lee Haechan! It would be very dangerous if an idol drives alone, you understand right? Just wear your goddamn seat belt and go to sleep there!" Haewon grumbles.
   "Wouldn't it be more dangerous to let Noona drive?" Grunted Haechan and checked once again the seatbelt he was wearing.
   "Never mind, stop making Haewon nervous, I still want to live longer in this world" Said Taeyong who was met with Haewon's ferocious look.
During the trip to the dorm, I could not stop staring at the girl beside me. She looks very adorable when she's serious. Her petite body must try as hard as possible to drive this van, and I should be worried because I am inside it. For several times I saw her moving her legs, and that made me very uncomfortable because I'm not used to seeing Haewon with blisters on his body, if Grandpa Han sees this, he will be very angry.
In a short time, our car has entered the gate of our dormitory, and as usual, there are already Sasaeng huddled waiting for us there. I can tell because most of them wore white shirts with our names printed in it when they saw our car coming, they immediately surrounded us while pointing the camera at us.
   "They all are this many?" Haewon asked, gritting her teeth.
   "It's not as much as usual, considering the weather ... Some must be very smart not to freeze themself to death," Johnny replied.
   "They can't go up, can they? You all close the window's curtains now!" Haewon looked back with her horror face.
   "Ahjumma said that there are some Sasaeng who live in this apartment, they even wait at the dorm's front door every night" Doyoung answered as he lowered his bucket hat.
   "Aish, you guys just moved here, it looks like it won't be possible to move again, especially since SM has just paid in full for this dorm. I don't want to argue with Mr Jang from the financial division," Haewon chats at length.
I could see the girl in a hurry to take her handbag and start looking for something, then after a while, she growled in frustration because the object she was looking for was located somewhere of that bag she had never tidied. I stared at the girl exasperatedly, with my impatience, I wanted to scold her, but with a situation like this, it felt like I could save my scolding for later.
Author POV
NCT 127 Dorm
After almost 30 minutes of drama with the Sasaeng, they finally arrived at their dormitory. Haewon took a deep breath seeing the condition of the 10th floor's dormitory residents, feeling grateful that Na-ri and herself managed to win the budget to hire maid services for all NCT dorms. On this floor, there are Mark, Taeil, Yuta, and Jaehyun while the other members are on the 5th floor. In the living room, Yuta is tidying up things in his suitcase. When he saw Haewon coming, Yuta immediately closed his suitcase, after all, they seem to realize that no matter how close they are with Haewonm she is a woman after all and it would be very embarrassing if he let Haewon see something that should not be shown to others especially to a woman. Haewon smiled and immediately walked towards the kitchen, checking the performance of the maid service recommended by Na-ri herself.
   "here, it must be very tiring going here with all those Sasaengs.." Mark emerged from the kitchen, offered a glass of water to Haewon with half-sleepy eyes.
   "It's okay, Mark. Make sure to sleep early, tomorrow morning there will be shooting for your concert's VCR" Haewon smiled at Mark and took the drink.
   "I heard, better to prep my skin using some mask, right?" asked Mark while holding his cheek, Haewon laughed at Mark's behaviour. When they first met 1 year ago, Mark looked like a child and now he is taller than her.
   "You already look good Mark" Haewon replied while patting his back. Mark looked a little shy and went straight to his room. Mark always admires her, and it is common knowledge that he has a little crush on Haewon. Jaehyun was very, very uncomfortable if Mark had shown it very clearly when they were together.
   "Haewon, have you eaten? I want to heat Ahjumma's cooking, do you want some too?” Taeil also appeared from the kitchen while carrying piles of Tupperware from the fridge.
   "No Oppa, I have to go home now" Haewon smiled and slowly left the kitchen area and walked to the front door. Haewon intends to go straight home when suddenly Jaehyun pulled her hand and opened the door to his room.
   "Why?" Asked Haewon confused. Jaehyun said nothing and pushed Haewon until she sat on the edge of his bed. Haewon's eyes widened when Jaehyun suddenly squatted and she flinched to the cold sensation on her ankles.
   "Don't wear anything that you don't even know how to use. For example, heels?" Jaehyun smiled mockingly in the direction of Haewon while rubbing the medicine on her blistered ankle.
It's been a long time since she has a conversation with Jaehyun, and it feels very nice to see his best friend's room again. Jaehyun's room is very minimalist, the arrangement is simpler than his bedroom in the Jung's family house. Haewon looked at Jaehyun and felt a little guilty because he often ignored Jaehyun's invitation to hang out together. Haewon was at the end of her semester when Jaehyun was announced as a member of SMRookies after that every time Haewon visited Korea, they only met at the Christmas party held by their family. And now, even though they are working at the same company, plus the fact that Haewon leading NCT projects herself doesn't mean they can freely show everyone that their relationship is this close. First, Haewon is always busy in her office on the 5th floor, while Jaehyun always practices on the basement floor and NCT's schedule is always tight. Besides, Haewon often goes abroad to attend contract signing meetings with parties who want to work with NCT.
    "Sorry, I should pay more attention to Sasaeng. I didn't think they would be this brutal. It seems like I have to make an emergency meeting immediately" Haewon bowed her head looking all sad. She is gazing at Jaehyun's hand who painstakingly applied ointment all over her ankles. Jaehyun stared back at Haewon and shook his head.
   "Take your time, you know that Sasaeng is a difficult matter. Even SM is seen giving up on it ”Then Jaehyun took something from under his bed, thrusting sneakers on Haewon's lap.
   "Wow, apparently my shoes are here?" Haewon smiled and wore those shoes. Smiling slightly as she closed her eyes, feeling how comfortable it was to wear shoes compared to the heels.
   "You have to stop leaving all your belongings in my house, Eomma is very worried, she thinks that you are senile at this age" Jaehyun laughed a little at Haewon's reddened face. And he thought that was very adorable, well that girl would always look adorable to Jaehyun.
   "Isn't that our picture?" Haewon stood up and walked toward the wardrobe where Jaehyun kept all his things. Amongst all the stuff, the only thing that stunned her is a photo of Jaehyun and Haewon's family while on vacation in Disneyland.
    "It was our first vacation together" Jaehyun lay down on the bed. Still looking at Haewon who smiled looking at the photo.
    "Yeah and you were crying because apparently, Mickey Mouse is so big to you, oh my god you're so cute at that time" Haewon hugged the photo and looked at Jaehyun with a big smile on her face. Suddenly the memory becomes fresh again, the memory of their first encounter that leads him to the most beautiful fate of his life.
December 25, 2003
Jung’s family house
Little Jaehyun rolled his eyes in annoyance, this was the umpteenth time he was forced to be the role of a husband in the house played by his cousins. Jaehyun is an only child and all his cousins ​​are girls, he's already fed up with all this, suddenly throws all the cutlery in front of him and runs into the backyard. The little boy was still sulking while playing with snow piled up in the yard when he could feel someone approaching him, his father with a glass of hot chocolate sitting beside him.
   "Are you okay?" the man asked and Jaehyun shook his head. The man smiled, understanding that his child must feel very lonely being the only boy in this household.
   "I didn't ask you guys to give me a little sister, but at least give me a friend to play basketball," Jaehyun said while staring at the long-frozen basketball hoop. Jaehyun's father smiled and wiped the chocolate that was on the corner of his son's mouth.
   "Let's pray that Uncle David's next child will be a boy," said Jaehyun's father. And Jaehyun exhaled, more pessimistic that there would be more male offspring in this family besides him.
   "If Uncle David's next child is a girl then I will make him a boy," his son's innocent words made the man burst into laughter. The conversation between the father and son stopped when the gate was wide open, and several people got out of a black car. A man in a suit walked towards the two of them with a big smile, behind him, there was a woman who was holding the hand of a girl who kept her head down.
Jaehyun's father stood up to the man and hugged him tightly. Jaehyun frowned in confusion. This is the first time their family has a guest at a Christmas party. He saw his father returning with a little girl on his hands. The girl was wearing a white dress, long hair flowing and looking all embarrassed. Jaehyun felt awkward when the two people were in front of him.
   "Jaehyun, this is Letisha Alana Choi or Haewon, let's say hello," his father said. Jaehyun stood up and extended his hand trying to shake hand with her. A little upset because the girl is not yet returned his good intentions. Suddenly the woman who is the mother of the girl whispered something in her ear, the girl immediately looked up at Jaehyun with her bright brown eyes sparkling.
   "You like basketball?" asked the girl that he replied with a small nod. Then the girl smiled very brightly and take his hand. At that time for the first time in 6 years of his life, he saw a very beautiful smile.
And until this moment Jaehyun was still stunned to see the smile that Haewon always carved. He realizes that this is not right, because his family considers Haewon their daughter. But he could not stop this feeling no matter how hard he tried to.
"Why?" Haewon lifts her eyebrows looking at Jaehyun who kept staring at him.
"No, it's just...you are very beautiful today" Jaehyun smiled and Haewon with all her strength had to hold back not to blush. If not, Jaehyun will tease her until a time limit that she can not specify. But Jaehyun's praise gave a warm feeling to her, a sign of gratefulness that having Jaehyun in this world is the best thing that ever happened in her life.
Haewon POV
11.50 PM
Location Unknown
"Yes, I just come out from the dorm," I said to Na-ri who has been calling me for a while now.
"You've made sure Haechan and Johnny don't play games, right? If they are late tomorrow I will be furious because shooting starts early in the morning" Na-ri said from the phone.
"Yes, oh my god we are not their babysitter, let the boys lived, Na-ri!" I replied quickly. Before going down I took myself to the dorm on the 5th floor. Talking briefly with the manager about tomorrow's schedule, scolding Haechan for drinking coca-cola on this cold day, and almost having a heart attack because Johnny casually came out of the bathroom wearing only a towel.
"Alright, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. Thank you for the car, by the way. " I ended up lending my car to her because it will be uncomfortable to take a bus to Louis Vuitton's office, it's already very late and it could be a danger for her. I thought that she already ends the call but then she asked again, "with what are you going to go home now? Jaehyun?" Gosh, if he takes me home now, I can guarantee that by tomorrow our face will be all over the news.
"are you crazy? do you know how much Sasaeng are outside? I'm taking the bus" I said with a snort of annoyance. I just argued with Jaehyun because he insisted on taking me home. I have my reasons, I don't want a piece of cheap news about our relationship popped up while NCT is at its peak year.
"Do you know how to ride a bus?" I gaped in disbelief at the question.
"Really? Do you think I'm stupid?" I replied rhetorically.
"Well who knows, you're rich from birth ... eh no, before you were born you already inherited all of your family's wealth. Naturally, you never take a bus, right?" I shook my head at her babble. Of course, I know how to take the bus, back in school at SOPA Jaehyun and I always took the bus. That is the kind of topic I always try to avoid, when I arrived at the bus stop, I end the call with Na-ri and waiting for the bus to come.
There is not a single person around here considering that it's almost midnight and this place is kinda desolated because lots of idols live around here. Should I just take a taxi to go home? I waited, and wait for the bus or taxi to come but there are none of them passing by. Suddenly realize that on weekdays, bus stop working at 11 PM which was 50 minutes ago was the last bus of today. I tried to remain calm, as the coldness hit me and I tighten my coat.
At this time, all I can think of is to use my last card, the only person that is still awake and will pick me up immediately. I sigh a relieved sign and start calling the number.
"Uncle Jung? It's me Haewon... I'm sorry but can you pick me.." my words stopped as I feel something stab my shoulder, something very sharp, I can feel the hot breath flowing through my neck as the person come closer to my ear."There should not be a girl in NCT's staffing" the person said. The sharp edges leave my body and that person run immediately, I was about to chase after that person when I found myself all weak on the floor with blood flowing from my shoulder...

Suho: Are you done?
Chanyeol: *wiping tears out of his eyes* Yes, you may continue.

I’ve Got You (part 21)
Pairing: Jongdae x Reader
Genre: Fluff, Canon AU, Smut
Description: You work for SM as it’s public relations specialist, and Jongdae is one client that you have to deal with far too often. Sometimes though, he isn’t all that bad.
A/N: THIS IS THE END I HAD THE HARDEST FUCKING TIME WRAPPING THIS UP
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8, Part 9, Part 10, Part 11, Part 12, Part 13, Part 14, Part 15, Part 16, Part 17, Part 18, Part 19, Part 20, Part 21.
Tumblr media
“Admitting my mistake? Are you sure that’s a good idea?”
“If you come forward and admit to your mistake then you’ll have the trust of the public. It’s better to be honest with your public than to foster a false sense of honesty. They want transparency. We can work to rebuild your reputation so long as we don’t lose their trust. If you send out a memo within your company letting them know the deal, I’ll help you create a press release that you can send out for the journalists.”
Your client nods along to your words as if they’re his saving grace. “Okay. I’ll do that. I’ll be back tomorrow with an outline for an apology and an explanation. Thank you so much!” You smile and watch him leave the small conference room with an energy he didn’t have when walking in an hour ago. It makes you feel good.
When you started freelancing, you never thought you’d feel as relaxed as you currently do. Nearly a full year has passed since you sent that text to Nari telling her that you were mistaken and it wasn’t any of your idols at that theater. That you’d been the person in the photo, and that you’d lost your common sense at the time in panic. That it was your fault.
A year since you were called into one of the management offices and they told you that you were fired.
A year since you felt like your world was crashing in and that you’d made a huge mistake by partially revealing your part in what was almost a catastrophe.
A year since the rumors died down once it was revealed that it was just (former) staff at the theater and there was no reason to be up in arms.
A year since you decided to take a 3-month-long break and go traveling abroad for the first time as an escape from the suffocating feeling in your chest that wouldn’t go away. A dream you’d had when you’d first started college, but put aside once you’d found that job. 3 months where you turned your phone off and deactivated various forms of social media as a means to “cleanse” yourself.
Whatever that was supposed to mean. It was torture to be honest.
That year…geez, you’re going to write that one down in your personal history books. The hardest year of your life you think. Change is never easy, and avoiding a huge scandal is even harder. But somehow, you survived. You made it out with minimal damage and damn it feels good to be happy where you are. Working at your own pace, with clients of your own choice.
With a boyfriend you somehow managed to keep even after the world damn near exploded…and told him you’d be unreachable for a few months.
Oh right! You check your cell phone for the time, and panic. You’re going to miss the ending of his radio appearance if you don’t pull it up on your laptop now. He’d told you this was an important one, but you’d had this meeting scheduled before he told you about this; you couldn’t cancel – not when he’d probably tell you everything he said when he comes over to your new apartment later.
Disappointment and then a bit of fear are distinct in your chest when you go to the website where his appearance was being aired, only to see everyone wrapping up and taking pictures as music plays in the background.
You’re going to get an earful when he finds out you missed it.
Your phone rings as you’re rushing to pack up your stuff. As expected, it’s Jongdae. You don’t even get a hi or hello. “Did you watch?” he asks – seemingly out of breath.
“No…as soon as I got out of the meeting it was ending. Did I miss much-”
“No!” he nearly bursts your eardrum at the volume of his voice. Your mental alarms immediately go off. “Ha, I mean no nothing at all. Hey, do you want to come over?”
You pull the phone away from your head to look at it with narrowed eyes. “…your place?” you ask hesitantly. He grunts and you frown to yourself. “Uh…sure. Is something…going on?”
He clears he throat and you can hear the shuffling in the background as he moves around, nervously you assume. “No,” he laughs. “Why would you think that?”
“You’re acting weird Jongdae. That’s why.” You deadpan.
His scoff is unconvincing. “I’m not!” the whine tacked on is even less so. “But you’ll come? Kyungsoo is trying a new recipe and all of the guys want to uhm…meet you I guess?”
“They want to…they’ve all met me before…” you pause outside of your car at his words. Why would they want to meet you? You’ve met all of them almost a thousand times when you worked at SM as a PR manager. Hell, you talked to each of them nearly every day while working for them.
He hums in frustration, “Yeah but…that was…it’s different now. That was as the scary publicist-”
“PR Specialist-”
“Okay whatever, scary PR lady. The point is they want to meet you…as my girlfriend.” he mumbles the latter end of his statement, but your chest blooms with heat.
A happy kind of heat that spreads throughout all of your body at the fact that he’s decided that meeting the members like this is a different thing. Months after you returned from your abrupt trip abroad, albeit, but you aren’t all that concerned with the amount of time that has passed. You were both latched on to one another at any given moment at your return, and the idea of meeting the members and each other’s parents hadn’t really crossed your minds. Not until recently at least.
You’d met his parents at a dinner they had at their home. Jongdae had finally gotten a break and his parents had been bugging him for months to bring you around. His mom was all too happy to meet you, showering you in compliments and coddling you as if you were her own daughter, while his dad would take any chance to learn about the things you liked and what Jongdae had managed to do to trick you into being with him. You immediately felt at home among his family.
He’d met yours when they’d made arrangement to come to town and visit you. You’d thrown together a meal and cleaned up your new apartment and even set up the guest room so they would have somewhere to sleep. Saying you were extremely stressed would be one hell of an understatement. You knew they would be nice, but they’re good at being nice and then turning around and revealing that they dislike him to you in private. Thankfully, everything went well and he charmed the fucking pants off your parents. He flattered your mom, brought gifts, and every answer he gave to your dad’s questions had seemed perfectly crafted. You parents wouldn’t stop talking about him when he left, and always ask to speak to him when they call now.
You fell in love with him all over again.
“I’m sorry, can you repeat that?” you ask teasingly into the receiver. A smile spreads confidently on your face as you climb in your car and drive home to get changed, feeling giddy and light.
“You know what, what am I talking about? We don’t need to have dinner, I can just come over to yours and we can forget I even-”
“Jongdae?”
“…yes?”
“I’ll come over and have dinner with you and the guys. Calm down, yeah? It’s not like I’m meeting your parents for the first time.”
“You’re only this calm because my mom loved you when you finally met last week!”
A laugh bubbles from deep in your chest. “I know right? It sucks, your parents are going to ask about me for the rest of your life. Guess you’re stuck with me huh?”
“Shut up,” he mumbles childishly.
A red light approaches, and you shift in your seat as you mess around with your radio. “Why are you so worried anyway?”
“I just,” a sigh “I have a weird feeling about this. Everyone was acting strange on the radio show, and out of everyone Baekhyun said to invite you and I know they’re going to say weird shit so-”
“Hey?” you interrupt “Breathe.” You inhale as an example and smile to yourself when you hear him follow. “I’m not scared or worried. Did you forget I’ve still got more dirt on them than anyone else ever will? I can handle my own.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m positive. I’ll come to dinner and meet them as your girlfriend and everything will be fine okay?”
“Alright…I love you. Do you know that?
“I do, and I love you too. I’ve gotta go now. Call me with the details later on!”
Dinner happens just as you figured it would. You get thrown questions that are meant to seem normal, but you know are being used to gauge how compatible you are with Jongdae. To see how far your buttons can be pushed outside of the office, to tease you and see whether you would fit within their already established dynamic. Loud laughs and conversation that comes easy helps you relax.
You’d never admit to his face that the idea of meeting the guys outside of the context of work might have freaked you out just a bit. Kyungsoo and Chanyeol end up making dinner, and you devour the meal gratefully.
You help Sehun clean off the table, after insisting that a good guest should help clean after a meal. Minseok joins not long after, and Jongdae begrudgingly assists only after guilt refuses to let him to watch you clean while he sits.
“We should all go out for drinks,” Junmyeon offers. He pulls up a place on his phone that they often frequent. You’re told that it’s okay to join; they haven’t had any trouble with fans or paparazzi there.
Actually interested in the idea, you perk up and open your mouth to agree to a round (or three) of drinks. Jongdae, however, has opposing thoughts. “You guys go ahead, I’m going to take her home.”
Your mouth closes softly. “No, you should both come with us. We’re celebrating you, right?” You figured you weren’t being invited to this dinner just as a casual thing, but hearing Chanyeol bring up celebration, your interest is piqued. What were you all celebrating? You and Jongdae have been together for over a year. That’s nothing extremely remarkable. You feel a tingle under your skin at the thought of something have slipped by you so obviously, something having been unmentioned, someone keeping you in the dark.
Did I miss something? You wonder if he would answer you if you telepathically sent the question to him. A look, that’s what you try to give Jongdae, but he avoids it like a professional. His hand find yours even as his eyes do the opposite. He squeezes. “I have something I need to talk to her about,” he says with an uneasy grin. The tingles intensify as you glare skeptically at his profile.
What is he up to? And why does everyone else look so…knowing? Eyes widen and then melt into meaningful grins all across the room. You feel remarkably left out of whatever conversation they seem to be having above your head.
All 8 bodies move as they grab their phones and things, and begin moving toward the door. Kyungsoo pushes Chanyeol out as the taller tries to say an unnecessarily long goodbye to the both of you. Yixing is all smiles as he pulls Baekhyun away with a wave to you, the other trying to slyly hang back and potentially overhear what the two of you are about to discuss. The door closes and silence fills the room.
Your chest feels heavy knowing that you have no idea what is about to happen. He pulls you to his and Minseok’s shared room and forces you to sit on the bed as he violently rummages through his closet.
Uneasiness. Nervousness. A fear of the unknown. All of it leads you to distractedly talk to fill up the space. “You really don’t go out for drinks with them often. How can you be as noisy as you are, but dislike going out and drinking irresponsibly at any given chance? It doesn’t make any sense, you know? It’s just the like opposite of what people would expect-” talking most to yourself and for your own comfort at this point, you follow him with your eyes as he moves from the closet to the foot of his bed where you’re sitting and reaches beneath the bed and pulls something out.
He hides it behind his back before you can get a good glimpse of it, and you can almost feel the nervousness radiating from his body. Why are you both so nervous. From the way his lips are pursed and his posture is rigid. You finally take notice of the way he’s…kneeling.
You feel like you’ve been punched in the chest with how fast breath escapes you. “Jongdae…” your voice is terrified as you stare wide-eyed at the single knee on the ground. He blinks twice and looks down to his legs and splutters before standing up on both feet. His neck and ears redden as he awkwardly tries to backpedal.
“Shit- uh sorry- this- uh- I…fuck I mean-”
Relief comes all to soon as you realize you’ve just dodged a huge bullet. Not that you wouldn’t love to marry him. You would. Like…really would, but it’s too soon. Way too soon. Neither of you are ready for that yet. You hold a hand to your chest and you try to get your breathing back to normal. Jongdae sits on the bed beside you exhales heavily as he tries to do the same.
You look at one another and laugh softly at your reactions. You almost forget that he was hiding something from you until he brings it forward and holds in his lap. You look down at the small box and feel more confused than ever. If you hadn’t both just crushed the idea that he was about to propose, you would think the small box was that of an engagement ring.
He says your name tenderly, reaches out and grabs the hand that isn’t still clutching the spot above your heart and uncurls your fingers. He puts the box in your palm and closes his hands around yours before waiting for you to find his eyes once again.
“How crazy would it be if I told you I wanted to make our relationship public?”
And there goes the second heart attack of the day. You gape. “…public?”
He nods, closes his eyes as he gathers his courage, and looks at you with renewed confidence. “Yes. I know that it’s risky, and that you might not like the idea of it since you’re just now finding yourself again and everything. I don’t want to be the reason you no longer feel comfortable going out, but I still wanted to propose the idea.” The edges of his lips quirk up shyly. “I want everyone to know about us. About how serious we are.”
His hands move from the box to rest in his lap as he gives you a moment to think. You open the small box to find a ring that looks similar to the one he likes to wear. You bring it closer to your face and see your initials etched into the plain band.
A promise ring.
Your mouth drops as you look from the simple piece of jewelry to his expectant expression. You can see the nervousness slipping back onto his features.
You’ve both been through a lot. Too much you would argue. From constantly arguing and you threatening him with whatever stationary you could get your hands on, to holding each other beneath the covers as you imagine what your future together will hold.
Scandals. Kisses. Secret rendezvous. All of the good and bad things you have come to realize that he’s been there for it all. Whether he was the cause, or silently supporting you from the side, he hasn’t missed a moment in the time you’ve known each other. You don’t deserve him. You know that you don’t. You aren’t sure what it was about you that managed to blind him enough for him to pay you any attention.
But here you are. In his room. A ring in your palm, and a promise of the future tangibly in your grasp. You want to cry. To sob and run and maybe lock yourself up in your room long enough for you to come to your senses and realize this is far too perfect to be real.
He murmurs your name at the sight of your watery eyes and reaches out to touch your thigh. “I just…I have one question before I give my answer,” you mumble before swiping at your eyes and sitting the ring box in your lap. He leans forward. “Once upon a time, you said that you didn’t want me to worry about anything when I’m with you…do you still mean it? No matter what, you’re going to be there for me? That you’ve got me?”
He snorts and rolls his eyes playfully. “Of course. As if I’d even think about letting you go at this point. You’re stuck with me, and I’m…hoping that I get to be stuck with you…” his tone softens as he subtly urges you to give him an answer.
You smile and slip the ring onto your finger, holding it up to give both of you a clear look at it. “I think going public sounds like a great idea.”
“Really!?” he shouts, standing up off of the bed only to lean down and hug you in a vice grip as he laughs excitedly. You’re pushed into the mattress as he leans in to connect your lips in a messy happy kiss. You can’t get the smile off of your own face. “God, I love you,” he whispers almost to himself.
You brush back the hair on his forehead with the hand the ring resides on and watch as his eyes flutter closed at your touch. “And no matter what happens from now on…I want you to know that I’ve got you too. No fan, no company, no news article is going to run me away. You’re stuck with me forever,” his eyes open and shine. You can see your future in those eyes. “I love you too. So much.”

Luca 5/16: Always By Your Side
Tumblr media
The two weren’t just teacher and student. When visiting the probably worried Luca…
~*Scene: Hallway*~
Dante: Oh, Ojou-san. You have business with Luca?
❤≪Dante≫ Seems as usual
Place: Where did he go?
Person: I want to ask Luca for a favour if possible
Person: Should I come again?
Felicita: Yeah
Dante: Me too. But he doesn’t seem to be in the laboratory
Dante: Oh well. I guess I’ll ask Jolly. See you…
>Dante, are you in a hurry?
>Dante, I want to ask you something!
Dante: No, it’s not urgent. Why? Do you need something from me too?
Dante: I see…if you have something to discuss then let’s go to the Chief Executive’s office
Dante: You want to ask me? Sure
Dante: …Instead of standing around here, shall we go to the Chief Executive’s office?
❤≪Dante≫ Seems concerned ❤≪Dante≫ Seems concerned
Person: Something to discuss?
Person: She looks gloomy…
Person: Why so formal?
Person: She looks worried…
~*Scene: Chief Executive's Office*~
Dante: That Jolly…how could he tell you about that…
❤≪Dante≫ Seems irritated
Person: What was he thinking!
Person: That must have been hard for Luca too
Dante: This must be a shocking truth for you too, Ojou-san. But for Luca’s sake, I’d like for you to stay in touch with him as always
Dante: Oh, we were talking about Luca, right? Regarding Jolly, I feel the same as Luca
Dante: I’ve known Jolly a long time. So, I can understand his way of thinking. But, I usually can’t empathize with him
❤≪Dante≫ Seems as usual
Arcana: We work together but we aren’t friends
Person: The principle is different
Pain: Ojou-san is worried
Dante: Yes, for example when we talked to you about Mondo before
Dante: That’s an easily to understand example of when “the result you’re pursuing is the same, but you’re ideologies are different”
Dante: We both want to save Mondo, but our reasons are completely opposite
Dante: Jolly doesn’t deny the power of the Tarocco
Dante: I feel that the Tarocco is unnecessary
Dante: We each have our own reasons and courses of action. But despite our differences we both want the same result, to save Mondo. So we each take action
Dante: In addition, Jolly’s actions are resented by a lot of people…
❤≪Dante≫ Seems as usual
Person: He’s ill-natured in that he only understands means and ends
Person: He has no consideration for others
Person: He’s capable though…
Dante: Well, we have our own positions but, we are human after all
Dante: That’s true even though we’ve matured. Even though he was trying to find a solution, I don’t think Luca at 10 years old could understand the reasons for his actions very easily
Dante: There’s not much you can do about this, Ojou-san
Dante: To Luca, you are something like hope. Luca is probably very afraid of your attitude towards him changing
❤≪Dante≫ Seems as usual
Person: I’m not saying to undestand him one-sidedly though…
Person: Hope…huh
Person: I’d like her to support him as a friend
Dante: Seeing that behavior from them is somewhat normal, so you could think of it as a new aspect of Luca that you haven’t seen before
Dante: My business can wait until tomorrow. But Ojou-san, you should go see Luca again
~*Scene: Hallway*~
Debito: Huh? So you ended up telling her?
Pace: That was probably a shock for Ojou
Luca: Yes. You’re right… I did babble quite a bit afterwards too
Pace: Ah…you’re relationship with her gets colder everytime you talk to Jolly
Debito: What, are you really worried about that?
Luca: I am though…
Pace: Well, I guess, even though you always say “Ojou-sama, shall I prepare some tea? Aren’t you cold? Should I hold you to warm you up”, right?
Debito: You also said “It’s ten million years too early for a shady old man like you to approach Ojou-sama”, right?
Luca: I did not!
Felicita: …
Pace: Oh! Ojou!!
❤≪Luca≫ Seems to want to run away ❤≪Pace≫ Seems as usual ❤≪Debito≫ Seems to be plotting
Place: Why is she coming here!?
Person: Those two play around with my image too much…
Pain: I don’t want to show that I’m worrying
Pleasure: It’s rare for her to come get him!
Daily: Maybe we teased him too much?
Daily: Now’s the time to show how deep my pockets are
Person: Don’t you see it?
Debito: Pace, make Luca stay
(*reveal) Pace: ‘Kay!
Luca: Wait, you two! Pace!
Debito: I heard. You okay, Bambina? In order to heal the wounded hearts of you and Luca, shall we all go out for a meal tonight?
❤≪Debito≫ Seems concerned
Pleasure: Interesting
Person: It’s to cheer them up
Person: We have to be enthusiastic
Debito: Well, this is just an excuse since we’re worried too. Luca-chan was always the type to bottle up emotions in his heart
Felicita: Okay
Debito: Yes! Then it’s settled. 7pm at the usual place, okay
~*Scene: Bar*~
Luca: Sorry I’m late
Debito: You’re here…where’s Bambina?
Luca: Wasn’t she coming eariler?
Pace: Huh!? You don’t know?
Luca: She said that she would go ahead of me, so I thought she would be with you two…
Debito: Hey, I said to meet up here, right?
Pace: It is night…maybe we should get in touch with a patrol to look for her
Luca: I’ll go look for her
Debito: Calm down. Some of the subordinates from the Chalices should be at this restaurant
Luca: You’re right…oh, that guy over there is one of the Chalices
Luca: Excuse me, you’re one of the Chalices, right?
Chalices Guy 1: Huh!? Oh, you’re one of the Major Arcana…
Debito: Hey, which Serie is patrolling around here today?
Chalices Guy 2: Um, today should be…the Swords I think
Chalices Guy 1: They should be near the back alley at this time
(*step) Luca: …Sorry, I really should head there first!!
~*Scene: Back Alley*~
Giorgio: Ojou, isn’t it passed the time you promised?
Simone: I’m happy that you’d prioritize us, but I am worried
Antonio: We’re practically done patrolling this area. Giorgio, isn’t it alright if we end here today?
Giorgio: Sure. Today should be nine and ten’s turn. You two report back to the mansion
Swords Guy 9/10: Yes!
Giorgio: Everyone else can dissolve
Swords: Okay!!
Raphaelo: We’ll walk you to you’re destination, Ojou
Felicita: ! No
Raphaelo: Even though they’re not here, and at such a quiet deserted place?
Cat: Meow
Felicita: !?
Giorgio: Hahaha. Don’t worry about it, Ojou. We’re also going to drink near that bar so we might as well
Simone: What!? Sm…oke
(*collapse)
Antonio: Ojou…sama
(*collapse)
Giorgio: Don’t breathe it in, Ojou…
(*collapse)
Raphaelo: Ugh…
(*collapse)
(*collapse)
(*smirk) Torino: *snickering*…as expected of the Borgia Family’s traditional sleeping powder. That’s for making a fool of the great black marketeer, Torino
(*tug) Torino: Now I’ll just tie these five up
Torino: Geez…thanks for taking me in that time
(*tug) Torino: The isolation cell was actually comfortable
(*tug) Torino: It’s a good thing that I could get out, but the security around the harbor has been bad for business
(*tug) Torino: I’ll have you lot help me raise my profits for the next half month
Torino: Well, I guess this girl is the only one I can sell. I guess I should punch her too. Then I can relax
(*whack) Torino: Ow! I guess it’s impossible for a businessman to punch someone properly. I should just take the girl and run…
Torino: Eeek!! W-what!?
Torino: How can you be okay breathing in the sleeping powder!?
Luca: The sleeping effect of papavero (TN: poppy) extract in a powder…I’m immune to that, so it won’t work on me
Luca: First, I’ll blow away the aroma with the wind. Everyone should wake up in time
Luca: As part of his experiments I was made to drink a lot of things, for it to be useful now…is upsetting
(*whish)
(*slash) Torino: Uwah!
Luca: I held back that time since everyone else was there…but I can’t do that today
Luca: You even tied up Ojou-sama…!! I’ll at least let you choose. Knives or flames, which would you prefer?
Torino: W-whoa!! You stopped me by throwing knives and you still feel like doing more!?
Luca: Yes
(*whish)
(*slash) Torino: I…can’t move…
Luca: Ojou-sama, I’ll untie you now
Luca: Ojou-sama? It’s me, Luca, can you hear me?
❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama
Pain: Hold on!
Luca: …Thank goodness…
❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama
Pleasure: She’s awake…
Pain: I shouldn’t have left her side
Arcana: ???
Tumblr media
Luca: …Please don’t worry me so much…
Luca: Ojou-sama, please let me come with you on patrol after all
Luca: When I think about what would have happened if I wasn’t in time today…
Luca: Please…
Tumblr media
Luca: !?
Debito: Pace, stop making noise you idiot!
Pace: Wah, sorry!
Debito: Oh, don’t mind us. Just keep holding her and whispering lovingly
Pace: Huh, me too?
Debito: Well obviously while I tie this guy up and take him to the mansion, he should stay here and hold Bambina!
Pace: Yeah, I guess. Then I’ll take these four!
Luca: Yeah, but that’s also…
Debito: It’s fine, you just carry on
Debito: I’ll take care of the trash and Pace can carry the sleeping ones
Pace: Take your time~
Luca: “Take your time”….Ojou-sama can you stand? Ah, it looks like you haven’t gotten your strength back yet
❤≪Luca≫ Seems nervous
Pleasure: I’m glad she’s okay…!
Pleasure: Thanks, you two
Arcana: ???
Luca: Should I carry you?
>If you carry me people can see my underwear (TN: ……wtf???)
>This is fine
Luca: Sorry…you’re right
Luca: …Okay. Then just a little longer
>Your voice was a bit scary
(No Amore)
>I could hear your voice
(+20 Amore)
>Luca, are you spoiling me?
(+10 Amore)
Luca: Uh, r-really!?
Luca: Huh!? How much did you hear?
Luca: Since I said “as part of his experiments”…huh. So after I used the wind, you heard everything?
Luca: Ahaha…that’s kind of embarrassing
Luca: Spoil? I didn’t intend that
Luca: But, my actions might be extreme
❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama ❤≪Luca≫ Seems concerned ❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama
Person: Scary…
Person: It’s because I was desperate!
Arcana: ???
Person: I might not need to hide it
Person: She heard…
Arcana: ???
Person: Spoil…I guess I was told that
Pain: I’m causing trouble
Arcana: ???
Luca: It’s a little complicated. The reason I could save you today…is thanks to Jolly in the end
❤≪Luca≫ Seems concerned
Arcana: Everything is connected to how I am now…
Person: My outlook is narrow
Arcana: ???
Luca: Of course I’m paying the price for that, but I can’t help but feel thankful in times like this
>You hate Jolly?
(-20 Amore)
>You’re forgiving Jolly?
(-20 Amore)
Luca: I guess. I can at least say that I don’t like him
Luca: But, I do respect him in some ways
Luca: There isn’t anyone who can compete with his knowledge and intelligence
Luca: I don’t think I will ever forgive him
Luca: But, if the day comes when he becomes concerned with the people around him and reflects on his actions…
Luca: I might forgive him then
❤≪Luca≫ Seems as usual ❤≪Luca≫ Seems as usual
Pain: I don’t know…
Person: There was a time when I hated him
Arcana: ???
Pain: It’s unforgivable
Link: I want to forgive…
Arcana: ???
Luca: I didn’t really want you to see….me saying things like this
❤≪Luca≫ Seems concerned
Daily: I wanted to be an honest, moderate person
Person: I guess it’s fine now
Arcana: ???
>It’s fine
(No Amore)
>But you’re always kind
(+20 Amore)
>I’m happy seeing the different sides of you
(+10 Amore)
Luca: …Okay
Luca: I think being strict or silent can also be kindness sometimes
Luca: Although…the only one who can be kind all the time would be you, Ojou-sama
Luca: Th…that’s…
Luca: Thank you
❤≪Luca≫ Seems as usual ❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama ❤≪Luca≫ Ojou-sama
Link: That’s a relief…
Arcana: ???
Link: I’ve conveyed that to Ojou-sama
Arcana: ???
Link: Ojou-sama…!
Arcana: ???
Luca: I didn’t mean to change myself so much
❤≪Luca≫ Seems concerned
Person: I wanted to be mature emotionally
Person: In reality…I have a long way to go
Arcana: ???
Luca: No…I said that wrong. It would be a problem if I couldn’t change
Luca: When it comes to you, I can never me merciful to my opponents
Luca: I can’t ignore what Jolly said. I guess we really are parent and child in some ways
Luca: While talking to you, I’ve realized that
Luca: Well, we should get back soon…can you stand?

Idol couple (Jimin) || 01
Tumblr media
♢ Pairing: Jimin x Reader
♢ Word count: 1.4k
♢ Genre: Fluff, tiny bit of angst (lmao idk)
  ⌲ Description: You’re a senior idol from YG, and your boyfriend happens to be Jimin from BTS. How does that work out?
Being an idol was hard. Harder than she ever imagined in the first place. But that's what she loved about her job. The thrill of performing and voices screaming your name. Y/N loved it. The current event that she was attending was MAMA 2016. The biggest award show of the year. This was her 8th year since debut and it was obvious that she was one of the biggest sunbaes present. Her debut was almost legendary, one could say. As one of the youngest solo artists to the debut at that time. She was only 14. But being surrounded by all her loved ones helped a long way. Including her company, YG entertainment, for the past 10 years she spent with them.
She was the only YG artist attending this year. Mostly because it has been a tradition of hers since 2008, when she won best rookie award. Another because she was way too stubborn for anyone to order around, and especially by her president. He let her go without much restraint, and only sighed and shook his head at her. That might as well be the reason how lonely she felt without any of her fellow company groups and artists not being here. She was always used to sitting between Jiyong and Seungri, commenting the performances they were watching. Always dancing and singing along as well. This year however she was seated at a round table alone, and surrounded by her many hoobaes. No one had dared to sit down next to her yet, because of the 'cold' YG image she had.  "Yo what's up girl!" a voice in english suddenly greeted. She grinned at the sight of Amber. One of her closest friends in the industry.  They met back in 2009 when they were both promoting at the same time. Y/N for one of her new mini albums, and Amber for her groups debut. It was totally accidental when they rushed behind the stages in the small hallway and bumped into each other a bit harshly. Both began to apologize in rushed english, as it was their mother tongue. So they quickly began to meet up more when they understood both had something in common. From there the friendship only continued to bloom as they supported each other through thick and thin.  "Hey!" she greeted back happily and stood up to hug the older girl.  "You're scaring away all the hoobaes," Amber told her with a small smirk. Blinking confused, she tilted her head to the side slightly,"What?" "Sitting here all gloomy and looking mad." Mad? She wasn't mad at all.  "It's my face," she deadpanned.  Amber laughed. "Exactly. So smile a little and remove that resting bitch face of yours." "Geez, thanks," Y/N replied sarcastically and rolled her eyes.  "You're welcome," the SM artist winked. "Why are you even sitting alone? What about your boyfriend?" At the mention of her boyfriend, Y/N glanced a few chairs over and saw him sitting there with the rest of his group. A neutral expression on his face, not giving away what he was feeling or thinking. He always was a bit of bore at award shows to be honest.  "You know we can't do that," Y/N stated in a duh tone.  Amber shrugged. "I don't see why. You're both official and everyone knows it, yet you two act like complete strangers around each other." She sighed in return. "You know that's not it. It's just...I don't want to anger any of his fans. Especially not tonight." "You might be wrong. Won't find out unless you try," the rapper said innocently, before giving her a quick hug and leaving to sit with her members again.  Shaking her head at her friend, Y/N sat back down as the break came to an end and the show continued its course. It hadn't even been 20 minutes when a staff member came rushing up to her and asked if it was alright to switch seats, so another group could get some space. Agreeing quickly, she stood up and straightened out her dress that was tight on her body, and had a slit up her leg. It was made in a sheer material, was only beaded to cover her chest and lower region. Y/N was always known for her daring and sexy fashion sense, that people admired about her.  But what she didn't expect was the staff to take a chair and put it right next to BTS' Jimin, who also happens to be her boyfriend. With slightly widened eyes she leaned towards the staff member.  "Excuse me, you want me to sit next to Jimin-sshi?" The woman's eyes squinted a bit. "Is that alright for you? I can always try to find another space, but I'll have to ask around-" Realizing how she was being a bit childish about this, she didn't want to make anymore trouble. "No, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Thank you," Y/N smiled at her before glancing at the seat.  Taking a small breath, she casually made her way over, when his head turned around to slowly and saw her approaching. With slightly raised eyebrows at her appearance, he watched as she sat down on the seat next to him. The distance between them was respectful, and nothing too much.  Y/N tried not to pay him any attention and focused on the current performance. But she could feel his glance at her from time to time.  "What are you doing here?" His low voice suddenly muttered.  "I had to make some space for another group and they sat me here," she replied casually and crossed her legs.  "And you agreed?" Jimin asked surprised.  "What's that supposed to mean?" She frowned at him slightly.  He shrugged. "You were the who wanted to keep our distance in public, so it was unexpected." Despite his nonchalant behavior and answer, she could still detect the bitterness in his words as she recalled the small spat they had a few days prior about this topic. They hadn't spoken much since then, as both of them were busy with rehearsals for the show.  Gritting her teeth slightly, Y/N replied in a tight voice. "You know that's not what I meant."  Jimin simply cocked an eyebrow at her. "What did you mean then?" "You know your fans can be sensitive. I'm just trying to spare them the sight of their bias and some girl showing too much PDA." What he did next both surprised and made her nervous, when he suddenly turned around in his chair and faced her completely. No longer caring about being discreet.  "What are you doing?!" She hissed, as her eyes frantically looked at the crowd around them, and already noticed several cameras filming the seating area. So even if she wanted to go unnoticed it was impossible with all the idols sitting around them. Any fancam would see them in the background or interacting some kind of way.  "That some girl you're talking about, is my girlfriend. And I'm not afraid of showing her off," he told her determined. "Then why should you?" Staying silent at his words she looked at the floor, and found the courage in her to finally face him as well. "You know what will happen when they see this, right?" His lips tugged up the slightest. "I don't care. Let them hate. They're not my real fans if they oppose our relationship." Trying to make up her mind, she didn't notice when Jimin had somehow scooted his chair closer to her and taken one of her hands in his own and squeezing then assuringly. "Don't worry about the crowd. They love you already. You're a legend after all," he smirked a bit, as Y/N chuckled.  "You're unbelievable, Park Jimin." He surprised her yet again with a quick peck on the cheek, as her mouth fell open at his boldness. Hundreds of cameras must have gotten that. And there blew her attempt of being discreet.  "Mhm, that's why you love me."
"Unfortunately."
AN: This is part 1 guys! Look forward to part 2! and knowing myself i’ll probably post it later today or tomorrow the latest :D
