the first time we broke up l Lando Norris
a/n: im sad so I wrote something sad? imsorry lol. feedback is always appreciated, and if you like this please let me know bc this is a story I have a pt 2 in mind <3 also, we are soon to reach 1k? on my side blog? OMG <3
pairing: Lando Norris x female reader
warnings: a teeny tiny mention of sex if you squint real hard, swear words.
words: 2.7k
genre: fluff, angst, everything tbh.
summary: it was easy to remember how you and Lando fell in love, but it kept getting harder for you to remember why you love him.
Tumblr media
You didn’t fall for Lando Norris right after you saw him for the first time. 
He was a bit shy, easily flushed, but the glint in his grey eyes never failed to appear whenever he saw you. 
You didn’t meet him with the thousands of people following him, girls trying to get his attention, a garage with his name written in big letters. 
No, his racing career was a bit under wraps in your neighborhood. Yes, everyone knew the youngest Norris boy was into racing and had a promising future, but he still was the boy they’d seen grow up, nothing out of the ordinary. 
You joined Millfield right after he dropped out to focus on his career, but somehow your circles combined and were eventually introduced to each other just as teenagers. 
Lando didn’t exactly chase you, neither did he say anything to you; he was content with the way your gentle eyes met him, eyebrows raised while listening to one of his stories racing. Lando was sure he was sleek, covering his feelings.
Well, it’s not like he exactly knew about feelings. He was a teenager, getting accustomed to the weird twist in his stomach whenever he was told you were coming to a reunion, the inevitable way the corners of his mouth shifted when he noticed you, the glimmer in his eyes when you noticed him. 
You were oblivious as well. Maybe the feelings weren’t as clear as those of the curly haired boy with a passion for racing, but he made you happy as a friend. His presence gave you a tranquil sensation, you could listen to his stories, the drama between his mates on racing, the country he visited last week… you never realized when you began needing those stories, those eyes, those curls, to make your day, your week, your month. 
You remember vividly when he got to the coffee shop where you always met, this time just the two of you, completely unaware your mutual friends denied your invitations in order for either you or Lando to make the first move. 
Only one person in the group bet on Lando, everyone´s money was on you to make the move… if only you recognized the feelings. 
There was an unknown pep on his step when he saw you already sitting on the corner booth, and his smile only grew bigger when you told him you’d already ordered for him. 
His usual. 
You knew what Lando liked. You paid attention to him. 
That realization, that you knew him, you observed him enough to know how he liked his tea, how he always ordered a fresh orange juice because he needed something 
cold. It stirred something in him, Lando couldn’t quite put his finger on it, but something shifted; the twisting was more intense, his heart beating faster, his hands getting clammy, his throat blocked because his brain was ordering to let his feelings out in the open. 
But he didn’t do anything until you left the small café, and that’s where you got the answer for his happy and almost childish demeanor.
A black mini, with tinted windows and everything. 
He asked if you liked it, coyly resting his body on the passenger door, keys carelessly dangling on his index finger. You laughed, loudly, asking how was he going to drive if he didn’t even know the street signs.
He shrugged you off, reminding you he’s an almost professional racer. 
Still, you pretended to be terrified when he switched the ignition and the engine roared, driving you home. 
This time, as you watched him drive you through the gloomy English skies, the same twist in the stomach, the closing of your throat, hands itching to touch him.
And you did. 
Lando didn’t try to hide his enormous grin when your hand was placed on his knee, then finding a more stable place over his hand on the stick console. 
He stopped the car in front of your house, the iron gate half covering the large family home, green filled your surroundings. All these details never left you; the humid window, water droplets running through the iron gate, the grass was greener after the rain last night, his shaky hands running through his curls every five seconds, his eyes finding your own as your name left his lips, even if he didn’t exactly know what to say.
Time stopped when you kissed for the first time. 
It was cliché, but it was true. 
The first kiss with someone you liked; the start of something new and exciting, the beginning of your first love. 
And it continued just like that. 
Movie dates, Lando masking his fear when meeting your father when he was just arriving from work, his mum telling you to wait for him upstairs because he was running late. 
Falling in love with Lando was easy, too easy maybe. Lando Norris was easy to love, with his boyish grin, the mischievous glint in his eyes when he made you laugh, the tears escaping his beautiful eyes when something was too funny, the way he clutched his stomach because laughing physically hurt him.
He always went all in, never trying to pretend something he wasn’t, never masking his feelings. 
Lando shared the same feelings, but maybe he fell in love with you before he was aware of it. Perhaps it happened after you dedicated him a bright smile, the way your facial expressions changed when he told you a story, feeling lucky during a weekend trip to Brighton where you let him be the first one to really love you, to truly be vulnerable with. 
Those weekends watching movies and playing Call of Duty, falling asleep with your hand on his hair, waking up every once in a while with your leg over his middle, surprising you on a school day to pick you up on his black mini whenever a race calendar was changed. 
Then, he was offered his first seat in Formula One for McLaren. 
You jumped into his arms, screaming with joy as his parents joined you in the living room, his tear stained cheeks knowing it was official. 
You don’t know how it happened, you’d been together for two years already when he was announced as the new driver, and maybe you were too young and naïve to think the only thing that would change was the distance after he moved near the McLaren headquarters, his calendar messier and tighter. 
You didn’t bother him to ask what you should wear to the first appearance on the paddock. Maybe jeans and a blouse would be okay for Friday, a long floral dress on Saturday to match the warm aussie weather, but Sunday…
When you voiced the concerns to your girlfriends they immediately got to work, marking a date on the calendar to go shopping. Your mum did the same, even offering to take you and the girls to London for the weekend. Money wasn’t an issue, you just wanted to look worthy of being there, the girlfriend of a Formula 1 driver. 
You stayed up all night studying other girlfriends. You checked Isabel Hernáez who always looked angelical and casual, freely using the merch of her boyfriend’s team. Giada Gianni gave you more inspiration with one colored suits, ankle length dresses, white jeans. Cate mas more into black leather, ripped denim shorts and high heels. Maybe you’d take inspiration from a pregnant Kelly Piquet, with cute dresses with denim jackets and jumpsuits.
Getting to know people on the team was easy, everyone was friendly and took time getting to know your name, shaking hands, introducing you to other members, but you didn’t really see Lando. 
Of course you didn’t, he was busy preparing for the race. 
But you didn’t see him afterwards; he didn’t look for you after the press point. At least his parents were there as well and they didn’t know about his whereabouts. 
He arrived to shared hotel room, throwing his body on the bed. You could see him still trying to process his first weekend on F1, not being on the sidelines but a protagonist, a star. 
But you were already wearing your pajamas. 
He never saw your outfit. 
The season went by and you don’t really know the moment where you sighed after not getting a text, a facetime call, an emoji. 
It was blank. 
College was kicking your ass, all of your friends were dealing with the same, and you wanted to lean in your boyfriend, to tell him you were tired, stressed and sad because you missed him, but never really got the chance because most of the time it was his assistant who picked up the phone and said she was going to remind Lando to call you. 
You weren’t oblivious enough to ignore the lacing pity on the woman’s voice, because she did rely the message every time, but Lando forgot every time. 
Or maybe he didn’t care.
The first time it ended, you expected it. It hadn’t been one of those situations where the boy notices his girl is drifting away and by all means necessary tries to win her back or remind her why he was the right guy for her. 
He didn’t even notice your absence in the last races of the calendar. Why would he? He didn’t pay attention to you even when you were there cheering for him, so why would you bother to fly across different continents if you’d only see him on a fancy hotel room where he fell asleep and be gone the next morning. 
Your friends started looking the relationship with other eyes, mixed feelings, not being able to ignore the mood swings whenever your phone vibrated and it wasn’t him. 
They also knew you saw the different fan accounts with his name, posting pictures of different women leaning in his ear and a grin decorating his features. 
It was the same grin, the same twinkle. Maybe he was more confident now and didn’t want to settle, because in your eyes, if he stayed with you he was settling for the easy, the known, the familiar. But maybe he could do better than that, perhaps he deserved the new, the exciting, the adventure. 
You don’t know when you took the decision, maybe when he called to tell you he was home and to come over to plan the Christmas presents.
And it gave you hope; of course he was going to be overwhelmed during his first season, it was a new life doing what he loved, and people seemed to really like him as well. 
He greeted you with a smile and quick peck, lacing his fingers with yours and walking upstairs of his family home. You greeted his family on the way, his younger sister announcing she needed your help with a school project, but Lando told her it was his time with you.
And your smile grew bigger, hand tightening around his.
Nothing prepared you for what was to come, though.
He said it so nonchalantly, like it was nothing, just a small relocation. 
Lando kept walking about thisnew apartment McLaren was paying for him; he could even have a yacht almost parked in front of his new apartment.
It was the dream for any twenty-year-old.
But you knew you didn’t have a part in that, because it didn’t take an expert to know how it was going to end. 
This wasn’t the case where everything would be fine because both people were just so sure in the relationship, not because they loved each other, but because they trusted and complemented each other. 
And that wasn’t the case for you and Lando anymore. So when you told him the words I think we should take some time, he didn’t take it too well.
Lando was blindsided, he felt betrayed and hurt and angry just by the fact you thought of needing some time away from him. He wasn’t aware of everything you’d done to try to fit into his lifestyle; the cameras, luxury, lack of stability. 
He didn’t slow his voice or quiet his tone. No. He got up from his spot on the bed and asked how you could do such thing to him, why if he’s been nothing but a loving boyfriend, and he couldn’t believe how selfish you were being, leaving him because things got harder than expected.
It wasn’t easy to smile through the tears flooding your eyes, even if it was a painful smile, but it was liberating to let him know everything you’d done for him; moving, studying in planes and uncomfortable airports, humiliating yourself with his assistant because he simple didn’t care, the sympathetic DMs announcing he was seen with a girl last night, they didn’t do anything but seemed really close. You got one of those messages every other week when you didn’t join him. 
He scoffed, tried to ridicule you, trying to express his feelings the best way an immature twenty year old could do.
“I don’t want to take some time, I don’t care about that. If you want to break up then that’s what we do. That way I don’t have to wory about giving explanations of whatever I choose to do,” His eyes didn’t meet yours, but it wasn’t because he was sad or anything, it was because he was angry with the situation, with you, and with him, even if he didn’t realize that part yet. “When did you become so selfish, you couldn’t wait a couple of weeks or even days after I got home? You are aware of that, right? I’m home with my family for the first time in fucking forever, and you decide to break up, fuck you.” 
You knew you wouldn’t be able to hold it inside much longer; vision blurry from the tears, lungs trying their best to keep breathing with the thick knot on your throat. 
And that’s when you knew it was over, because you didn’t want to fight. You didn’t want to make your point to him, knowing he wouldn’t understand. 
That was the first time you and Lando broke up.

house md hilson fic rec - medium to long fics (10k+)
Other house rec lists: short fics | episode tags | postcanon | infidelity trope (all of these are mutually exclusive apart from the infidelity one) // Edit: I added the longer postcanon fics to this reclist as well because this one got the most traction!
These are all House/Wilson unless otherwise stated. Before we get into the fics, here are some of my fave authors that have written several house fics.
fourteencandles: im literally in love with them . 10/10 writing no notes. also long fics?? hello???
ictus: this author has the range! from emotional to fluff to funny. very smooth writing. all of their fics have different vibes which was fun to read. they’re all very good. 
Transformatron: fics that are transcendent and porny, all featuring a d/s undertone or theme (wilson as the dom)
Namaste (livejournal / ff.net): Some short fics, some much longer ones. Mostly gen focussing on H&W friendship, with some fics on canon pairings. Interesting character studies and discerning prose.
In order of length. *faves, ***underrated faves
*Brain Damage by fourteencandles (8k) (Ok I know this isn’t over 10k but I wanted all of their fics on one post and it’s close enough so.) This was brilliant. Like a real episode of House, with Wilson as the unfortunate patient-of-the-week, with bonus House/Wilson. Characterisation was bang on, and the plot was original and engaging and had a satisfying conclusion. Love to see House taking care of Wilson.
Down to the Water + Bound for Home by blackmare (~10k) Aftermath of season 4. House and Wilson go on a road trip. Quiet and sad and fragile, with excellent writing. This fic appears to have been fairly well known in lj days but I don't think a lot of newer people know about it.
*A Smaller World by fourteencandles (10k) The thing between them works, if Wilson doesn't push for more. God I’m so soft. I have so many feelings!!! In love with this established relationship hilson, still a little precarious, but with Wilson adapting, and House willing to put in effort.
*What's Past by fourteencandles (10k) The guy who used to have Wilson's job comes back for a visit, and it turns out they have more in common than Wilson ever knew.
*Touch Therapy by nomad (10k) It's not that House needs the human contact. It's just that when you're sharing an apartment, these things happen sometimes. Light hearted and funny, canon divergence from when Wilson’s staying on House's couch in s2. This is pretty much the homosexual waters have started flowing in House's direction post. Excellent dialogue.
***not another medical drama series (10k) by captainharkness Retelling of season 1 with House and Wilson as an established relationship. Great slice of life stories! Ongoing. The first is H/W POV, the second is Cameron, and the third is Chase. My favourite is definitely the second one (someone else’s story). I adore seeing H/W through the ducklings’ eyes. 
Synchronicity by copperbadge (10k) Dead patients, car wrecks, drug overdoses, journalists, Comatose Charlie, and orange chicken. Must be love.
systemic by ictus (10k) Ever since Wilson moved in, House has presented with some inexplicable symptoms. Fortunately, he has a team of talented doctors to aid him with his diagnosis. Season 2 fic! This one is funny and sweet and overall a great read.
Rush Down Darkness by Starlingthefool (10k) House MD/World War Z crossover. Told mainly through interview dialogue from house’s pov. Engaging story. House/Wilson definitely takes a backseat to the plot — there’s no grand getting together or anything. That's not to say it's not about them though, because there were still lots of good moments (good in the sense that my heart hurts). More succinctly, it has the vibes of an established relationship fic., although it isn't technically one.
Defensive Strategies by Milkshake Butterfly (~10k) (lj) In which Wilson is tired of being asked out by women when he's not ready to date again, and naturally House proposes a simple solution: pretend to be together. An enjoyable read.
******Commonplace and True by celestialskiff (11k) It would be a simple story--House and Wilson meet at a medical conference, have sex, and enjoy each other's company--but nothing is ever easy, or simple. Explores Wilson's relationship with House, with women, and with himself. House and Wilson throughout the years — with the version of canon where Wilson has cheated on every wife and girlfriend with House. When I tell you I am FROTHING!!! Pining while fucking?? The way it’s never the right time?? The greed of wanting to have your cake and eat it too? (That one’s specifically for Wilson, our beloved three-wives guy.) The vibes are immaculate. The prose is elegant verging on poetic. I’m eating this fic whole and it will be on my mind always. It is THE hilson fic for me. It is criminal that this fic has been up since 2012 and it only has 200 kudos. Go read it immediately & give the author some love.
***Declarations of Independence by Namaste (ff.net, also on livejournal) (11k) House and winter, throughout the years. I really enjoyed this. Excellent writing. Copy pasting a part of a comment by bedawyn which articulates why this fic is unique better than I can: “So far, I've seen a lot of focus in the fanfic (and the eps) on the pain and the Vicodin, but very little awareness of the practical aspects of limited mobility and the emotional impact of those even apart from the pain. So this was a very nice change.”
***Rule of Three by Transformatron (11k) (House/Wilson/Foreman) Foreman sees something he shouldn't have. And, maybe, wants something he shouldn't have, too. This was well written and super hot, with fun dialogue and descriptions that do justice to the excellent writing of the show itself. Foreman is faithfully characterised in a way that made me sympathetic. Also H/W outsider perspective as a third is such a treat to read. Lower me into my grave!!!!
*Warning Signs by out_there (12k) Excerpt: House looked to the left, staring down at the open box. Wilson knew that expression on his face: House was torn between denying it all and gleefully acknowledging his schemes. Normally, his ego won out and, like a comic super villain, he'd explain all. Wilson just needed to stay quiet and wait. This fic was fantastic. I am disgustingly fond. Superb characterisation. Light hearted and funny.
The Oncologist Trap by zulu (13k) (2007) House subtly seduces Wilson. Somehow.
The Line of Thought by tevinterimperium (13k) House and Wilson pretend to be together to play a prank on the ducklings, which is an extremely plausible scenario. From the perspective of the ducklings. Set sometime after 3x15: Half-Wit.
hail mary by ictus (13k) A post-canon fix it! In the weeks since finishing the show and reading this fic there are times I forgot that this wasn’t canon. It’s such a believable (and well-researched) alternate ending that feels like an actual episode.
Son of Mine by simoneallen (14k) Sherlock is House’s long-lost kid. Usually I’m not a fan of cross-over fics but I enjoyed this one. Established relationship on the johnlock side, getting together on the hilson side.
***hearts turn red by ictus (14k) In my head this is the counterpoint to Commonplace and True. When I found it after reading that one it really was a holy shit two fucking cakes?? moment. The delicious infidelity vibes are similar, but the vibes of the writing are pretty different -- whereas the above fic has a more quiet, subdued atmosphere, this one has more snappy prose and it’s more light-hearted with funny moments as well as emotional ones. It’s not just the infidelity theme that makes me crazy about both of them though; it’s how they play on the great tragedy of House and Wilson. In the author’s own words: In a way they do feel a little bit doomed to never quite be on the same page with each other until the very end of the series and by then it's too late. Of course, in these fics, they’re rescued earlier than the end, but the wretched vibes remain. Also, I’m obsessed with this line: By Wilson’s read, House is somehow simultaneously joking and sincere: Schrödinger’s sexual advance. That is the entire fucking show.
An Inconvenient Truth by annathaema (15k) Wilson helps out Cuddy and reveals something about himself in the process. House freaks out accordingly. Also features banana-colored babies, the men's room, and Skee-Ball.
*at the rind by ShanaStoryteller (19k) An AU where Wilson experiences all the near death moments House has in the show as a series of nightmares. Set between 1.19 and 2.05, but spoilers for the whole show. Protective Wilson!! We love to see it. I also like Wilson’s characterisation here - you can very much see how not-normal he is. We love unhealthy co-dependency.
***Esopus Creek by shaycat (24k) An eighty-year-old widower by the name of Eugene Skinner ventures out one September day in upstate New York for his usual morning activity - fly fishing. His leisurely hobby is interrupted by a bickering pair nearby in the river. That chance encounter with Greg House and James Wilson changes the course of his life. Told from the perspective of the last friend the boys make on their final road trip. This was the perfect post season 8, Wilson-still-dies fic. A sad fic but not a depressing one. It’s quiet and heartwarming, in a bittersweet way. Highly recommend. It has great use of outsider POV — I’m always a sucker for it but it worked particularly well in this case to have the angst but not be drowning in it. Also I just really liked the OC.
***Howler Tone by baffledbear (25k) The calls always happen late at night, and they're extremely sporadic, with weeks, sometimes months bridging between them. They talk on the phone otherwise, of course; about patients, or dinner plans, or carpooling. Typical stuff. But the calls that always end a certain way always start a certain way. Wilson is so repressed but so attracted to House. House is taking as much as he can get while still remaining in relative safety. Together they push a platonic relationship to the absolute limits of plausible deniability. Overall totally realistic within the canon of the show — the natural step up from the gay chicken already depicted. It’s just such a perfect scenario for them! That combined with silky smooth prose, faithful characterisation and accurate dialogue makes this fic is a definite hilson favourite and also a hilson-thesis fic.
*The Open Road by Pun (25k) A fandom classic. Road trip fic set in the earlier seasons. It's good; read it.
*He Won't Tell You That He Loves You by hellshandbasket (25k) [In which Nolan pulls at the Wilson thread, and House can't stop it all from unraveling. Repression is a hell of a drug.] Early s6. Another fandom classic that is worth its salt.
no need to worry (making up your mind) by scribespirare (25k) House makes the mistake of telling his mother he can't join her for Christmas because of his new boyfriend. Somehow, this becomes Wilson's problem. Cute and fun. I put off reading fake-dating fics because I was worried about them being OOC but this one definitely wasn’t!
***Sticks and Stones by Transformatron (25k) (WIP) House has an innovative new idea for managing his chronic pain. Wilson’s not sure he approves - but when has House ever asked for permission? This is such a great concept I am climbing the walls!!! D/s with House as the sub. The story is currently still at pre-relationship stage, with House experimenting with BDSM and Wilson being unhappy with the proceedings (for some unknown reason /s). Also the writing is nice and snappy with some great figurative language that manages to incorporate medical themes impressively well. 
Fresh Feeling by justkeeptrekkin (30k) House is tricked into going on a team-building trip with his colleagues. He does far more bonding with Wilson than anyone else. Funny and well written. The team interactions are very cute.
***Tracking Time by Namaste (37k) (ff.net) A look at House and Wilson's friendship over the years and how it has changed from their meeting through the end of the first season. I don’t usually read long genfics but this one was exceptional. I like Namaste’s take on House and Wilson’s characters. And they are a very good storyteller — one thing that you don’t tend to see as much of in fanfiction is the old adage of ‘show not tell’. The writing in this fic is careful and subtle, and lets you read between the lines, making it so that no part of the 37k words is a drag to read.
*The Body Found by fourteencandles (46k) Wilson's missing. When I tell you I cried... Premium angst & hurt/comfort. Excellent dialogue with some alternating POV (House mainly, but you also get the three ducklings & Cuddy).
You Already Know How This Will End by fourteencandles (46k) What if House had gone to rehab right after/around "Merry Little Christmas"? (3.10) This fic was interesting. It’s told in a series of short vignettes with a variety of different perspectives. It’s not really a hilson fic (or a fic for any ship). It just explores the characters. I did wish for more hilson but it’s a good read (I mean, it’s fourteencandles). The one hilson scene near the end where they hire a hooker in Atlantic City lives in my head rent free. Warning that the ending is rather abrupt and I didn’t find it satisfying, but I think it works for this kind of story, in a way. Messy people and their complicated relationships, with a lot of loose ends left untied, because that’s just what life is. 
***For Every Closed Door by starlingthefool (around 50k?) (lj) Overview of the chapters (14 with 4 interludes and an epilogue) is on the author’s lj (scroll down).  House MD/Dead Like Me crossover.  I love this fic a lot! It’s canon divergence from Season 3. House gets killed in a freak accident and becomes a reaper, remaining in the mortal world to harvest souls, able to interact with people but not be recognisable to those that know him. As the author says, this is an Afterlife!Fic and therefore a deathfic. They also said it’s not depressing — which is true, because it’s more plotty than an angstfest, and there are lots of light-hearted parts, but it is definitely heartbreaking at points. I literally cried all the way through the last chapter. Happy ending though!!! Don’t worry about the cross-over aspects. I haven’t seen Dead Like Me, and as far as I can tell, it just takes the premise of the show. I’m glad I found this fic whilst trawling 2000s livejournal because it’s really a hidden gem. Great plot, dialogue, compelling OCs — the whole package! I got so emotionally invested in the story. I think there were maybe a few parts that were a little unpolished but just keep reading. It’s really worth it. 
*A Modest Proposal and Involuntary Commitment series by ignaz (98k) The one where House and Wilson get married so Wilson can’t testify against House in the Tritter arc.  I have an unfortunate habit of downloading fics and then forgetting to bookmark & comment once I’m done, so I don’t have anything detailed to say about this one, but it’s a classic and a favourite of mine.
Twenty Years of Stealing My Food by hwshipper (100k) A backstory taking place over twenty years, from how House and Wilson met all the way to canon. A reimagining of their fucked up, magnetic relationship, with a straightforward writing style. They get together nearly as soon as they meet and maintain a steady open relationship whilst cheating on their various girlfriends and wives throughout the years.

Tumblr media
Taissa elbowed your side making you flinch. she smirked at you and kicked the ball that was under your feet before kicking it over to Van who stopped it and kicked it toward Lottie next. you rolled your eyes at her, a bit embarrassed that she had caught you in the act. you cleared your throat and motioned for Lottie to pass it to you next which she did with ease. Taissa chuckled at your attempt of distracting her from the situation but she planned on teasing you later on once you were in the locker room.
just a couple feet away was the source of your distraction, the brown eyed girl who you had been staring at since the beginning of practice. her hair was pulled back into a pony tail with just a couple strands framing her face. she was passing the ball to Jackie with a smile on her lips as she laughed about something she had said. you'd do anything to be the source of that smile. you were casual friends, just as you were with the rest of the girls on the team. Tai, Van and Lottie were the only three you were closest to. Lottie had been your best friend since you were kids and the couple were just better company than the rest. Jackie brought in a lot of drama that you weren't particularly interested in having to deal with and Shauna was only close to those who Jackie approved of. you didn't think you were one of those people.
"you should tell her" Taissa said, too impatient to wait until the locker to talk about it. you let out a sarcastic chuckle at the thought. telling Shauna was the last thing on your mind. she was straight and in the slim slim chance that she wasn't, she would probably be in love with Jackie. they were inseparable and you'd never seen her look at anyone in a way to indicate that she was interested in them.
"yeah right. she's straight or in love with Jackie. besides, she barely acknowledges my existence" you responded looking at the curly haired brunette. Lottie and Van took a couple of steps closer so that they could be in the conversation without Shauna hearing.
"i don't think she's straight" said Van with an amused chuckle. you looked at her with a deadpan expression, not at all buying her words or even that she believed them.
Lottie smiled as she glanced between you and Van, "there's only one way to find out" she shrugged optimistically. you rolled your eyes at all of them. this had been a regular conversation and it always ended the same. you weren't going to tell her. the rejection would break your heart and it would just fuck up the group dynamic.
"im not telling her. end of story" you said and like a miracle, seconds afterwards the whistle blew signaling that practice was over. the three teens laughed in amusement but followed quickly behind you as they changed the conversation to the halloween party that Jeff was throwing at his house.
with hope that the conversation wouldn't shift back to a certain dough eyed brunette, you zipped and button your jeans before reaching for your blue hoodie. much like you had expected the conversation did in fact not end where you left it on the field.
"look, if you tell her and she says no then whatever, at least you can move on" Taissa said from beside you. she was on the bench tying her shoes and Van was leaning against the lockers with her hand gripping one shoulder strap. you groaned in annoyance and threw your head back to really show just how over it you were.
"if i tell and she says no then i have to live with being the sad lesbian who fell for the straight girl" was your quick response. Taissa and Van glanced at each other, not all that sure what to say that could contradict that statement. truthfully you probably would end up being the hopeless girl in love with a straight girl and there was a high chance that it could get around the school. you had come out as bisexual during your freshman year but that was just to make things easier and before you had realized you only liked girls. it made things easier, the boys still thought they had a chance so they treated you like any other girl but being rejected by a straight girl? now that you wouldn't survive.
a sudden voice behind you spoke. "or she's just not straight" said Lottie making you flinch and your chest tighten. you closed your eyes as you held your hand against your chest where you could clearly feel your heart beating against it.
"fuck Lottie!" you exclaimed, "you scared the shit out of me!" that seemed to have been the most amusing thing ever as the three teens bursted out laughing at your reaction.
"i was behind you the whole time. you need to start paying attention to your surroundings" muttered the tall girl as she walked past you and sat beside Tai. great. now it was three against you. again.
a groan erupted from your throat, "all of you are so fucking annoying. seriously. Shauna doesn't like girls and she doesn't like me so can we please just drop this?" you said and closed your locked a lot harsher than you intended causing it to make a loud noise and the other three girls flinched lightly at the suddenness of it. you grabbed your backpack and threw it onto one shoulder before walking toward the exit in a hurry. not quick enough though, Tai, Van and Lottie were on your heel with fast steps. figures.
the door opened in front of you and you stepped out of the locker room completely. met with an empty gymnasium you continued to walk until Lotties voice stopped you. "okay okay," she said quickly and grabbed your arm so you would stop walking. you came to a halt and finally turned back around so you were met with the three girls once more. "we won't say anything anymore. we just don't want you to keep pining over her" she shrugged which earned nods from the other two.
"plus you guys would look good together" added Van, in hopes that you wouldn't stay too mad at them for meddling so much. with a small smile you rolled your eyes at her words. a small blush spread across your face and you were sure if they didn't feel so apologetic for being nosy they probably would've teased you about it by then.
your mouth opened in an attempt to assure them it wasn't a big deal but your words died in your throat as your eyes shifted behind them. the locker room door opened to reveal a pair of best friends. it seemed as if the oxygen had been knocked out of your throat as you let out a little gasp at the sight. the three girls looked at you confused before they followed your eyes sight which elicited a similar reaction. their eyes widened in shock.
the only thing you could do in that moment was to hope they hadn't heard anything. hoped that in some magical way they weren't paying attention to your loud voice when you admitted to having a crush on her. oh fuck. her not hearing was impossible, it was like someone held a microphone up to your lips for fucks sake. Jackie glanced at you with a look you couldn't quite read but that wasn't your answer, it was the fact that Shaunas eyes were actively avoiding you as she grabbed Jackie's wrist and practically ran out of the gymnasium.
you were so fucking fucked.
the house phone was held up to your ear as you were in your room with your legs propped on your headboard and your eyes were trained on the ceiling. "she heard." were the words that left your mouth for the fifth time during the phone call. a loud groan reached your ear from the other line.
"no she didn't." Taissa said again. after having seen Shauna you ended up freaking out the whole car ride home. Lottie was always the one to give you ride to and from school which meant she had to be the one to hear you go on and on about the fact that Shauna and Jackie would probably tell the whole school. or Jackie would tell Jeff and he would or Shauna would tell someone and they would and so on. words were spilling from your lips faster than you or Lottie could process but she still tried her best to listen and reassure you that it would all be okay. yeah right. like you were going to believe that it would all be okay.
you rolled your eyes at Taissas effort to console you. "of course she did. she could barely look at me! i can't do this. i'm skipping school tomorrow." you shook your head.
"no you aren't. your parents would kill you." she responded which was true. but you figured being grounded was better than having to face Shauna. at least then you'd have an excuse to not go to Jeff's party which she would most definitely be attending.
"i can live with that." you nodded even though she couldn't see. you could practically feel her roll her eyes through the line.
Taissa huffed, "seriously y/n. it's not a big deal. people have crushes all the time, it's not the end of the world"
"it is when you're a lesbian and you know that" you responded with a slight drop in your voice, almost as if someone else could hear.
the line was silent for a couple of seconds which you knew meant that what you had said was right and she had no way of arguing with you. "maybe," she agreed. "but it'll go away in a couple of days. something will probably happen at Jeff's party and that'll be the new gossip. just come to school tomorrow. Van, Lot and i will be there with you" she said a lot more thoughtfully this time.
you contemplated her words. you didn't doubt that they'd try their best to distract you from the whole ordeal but at the same time you weren't sure if you could deal with Shauna avoiding you. it's not like you were close anyway, she only talked to you if it was about soccer or once in a blue moon when you went to parties but it never got further than that. maybe it wouldn't be that different. maybe she'd make things normal for the sake of the team. god you hoped so.
like promised Taissa, Van and Lottie were with you during the whole practice. it was just a scrimmage so you didn't have to interact with Shauna much but during the small amount of times that you did she would try her best to look anywhere else but at you. every time it happened you couldn't help but feel a tightening sensation in your chest and a wave of embarrassment to wash over you.
the actual school part was fine, it seemed as if you were wrong about everyone finding out because it was just like any normal day. it had been another junior that got everyone's attention, not you. that was a relief.
once the whistle blew which indicated that practice was over you ran into the locker room to wash off as quickly as possible so you could go home. just five minutes later you were dressed in your light jeans and white hoodie. your three friends were standing near you talking amongst themselves while they were still getting dressed, not exactly in a rush like you were. you were on the bench tying your shoes as quickly as you possibly could, too distracted to notice anyone around you. if you had maybe you would've seen Jackie and Shauna whispering hastily but a couple inches away. the ones who did notice were the three musketeers that had been teasing you about her since you confessed to them.
the three of them glance at each other confused by what was going on. they wouldn't have cared if Jackie wasn't motioning in your direction with her head. it didn't click until they saw Shauna take a breath and begin to approach you with nervously. it was obvious by her posture her and the way she kept glancing at her fiddling hands before looking up at you, who was still getting your last shoe tied.
"y/n," Taissa said softly hitting your arm with the back of her hand. the action made you roll your eyes. you quickly finished tying before looking at her.
"what?" you asked annoyed. she looked at your with pursed lips as she motioned to the brunette with her head as slyly as possible. your eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Lottie and Van turned their body and began to take a couple steps toward the door so they could give you privacy. Taissa didn't seem to have gotten the hint causing her girlfriend to whisper her name twice before she finally went with them.
by then you had already met Shaunas nervous gaze. at first you thought she was going to confront you about what she had heard and maybe tell you that it wasn't going to happen and you needed to get over her but that thought quickly vanished once you saw Jackie smiling at the both of you on the other side of the locker room. your brows shot up as you realized what was happening, your nerves began to sky rocket and you could swear you felt your heart skip a beat.
the brunette stood directly in front of you, both of her arms at her side by you could see her hands gripping at the end of her flannel which she seemed to do a lot when she's nervous. you blinked, once, twice before you finally stood up from the bench and shot her a shy smile. "hi" you breathed out. if Shauna didn't look like she was struggling internally you would've been afraid that she had seen how nervous you looked.
"hey," Shauna responded and finally looked directly at you. when her brown eyes met yours, a dozen butterflies began to swarm in your stomach which made you feel queasy. "i . ." she trailed off, almost looking behind her but she stopped herself before she could. "yesterday i kind of overheard you talking." she said. the butterflies soon turned into dread at the thought of how wrong you were about how this conversation could've gone.
fuck, fuck. you wished you had one of your friends to hold onto but you didn't. you were standing on your own with the girl you were madly in love with in front of you. "im sorry about that" you rushed out, hoping with every fiber of your being that she wouldn't humiliate you. "i didn't mean to make you uncomfortable and i promise i'll back off if you want-"
Shaunas voice cut you off before you could continue to spurt out apologies. "no," she said quickly making you shut up instantly. no? what does that mean? she sighed which made her shoulders visibly relax, "i like you too." she confessed lowly.
she.. what..? at first you weren't sure if you had heard her correctly or if it was just your mind playing tricks on you but by the hopeful smile plastered on the brunettes lips you were positive it hadn't all been a dream. holy shit.
"you-you do?" you asked nervously.
Shauna smiled and nodded, "yeah." she confirmed a lot less timid than she had been before. nothing was said on your end, the only reaction that came from you was the sight of your eyes widening and your jaw dropping slightly. Shauna almost thought you were adorable. it didn't click that you weren't going to say anything until Jackie cleared her throat behind the brunette, snapping her out of it. "i was wondering if you wanted to go out sometime?" she finally asked.
she expected you to have a delayed reaction like you had been having since the conversation started but you didn't. instead your lips quirked into a smile and you nodded, "yeah. id love that" you confirmed.
that seemed to be enough to make her smile widen. "cool. i'll pick you up tonight?"
all you could do was nod. the brunette shot you one last smile before turning around and walking up to Jackie. the two of them left the bathroom quickly after leaving you standing there with your jaw slacked, completely frozen in place. the three girls still in the room ran toward you and began to squeal in delight knocking some sense into you.
"i told you she liked you back!" Lottie exclaimed happily but all you could do was smile.
the date was amazing. she had taken you to a small italian place. the lights were dim and they had the typical checkered table clothe along with a single candle in the middle of the table. it was a bit awkward at first, neither of you knew what to talk about so it of course resulted in soccer. after that the conversation seemed to have flown freely, it shifted to personal things and so on. you had almost lost hope that the date would so be so awkward that you'd have to just stay friends but that thought left your mind quickly after. the longer the date lasted the more you felt a fluttery feeling form in your stomach.
an hour and a half later the two of your had left the restaurant and Shauna began to drive you home. it was pretty silent compared to the restaurant. Shauna had put on music which was sounding softly in the background whilst you looked out the window. truthfully, you were itching to do something, hold her hand or maybe even kiss her but you were too scared to. you didn't want to mess things up. Shauna continued to drive in the direction of your home silently until you saw an ice cream shop and offered to buy some since she had been the one that paid for dinner. the brunette didn't seem opposed to the idea and so she pulled into the parking lot that was relatively empty because it was so late.
a scoop of strawberry was on your cone and chocolate was on hers as you both leaned against the hood of her car. it wasn't awkward, it was actually nice. you'd never really thought you could feel so comfortable not having to fill the silence on a first date but Shaunas whole demeanor was just so calm. you weren't sure why she was so different compared to anyone else or if it was all in your head and she was the one feeling awkward. regardless, you turned to face her direction as you began to talk.
"you know . . this is the first date i've ever be on" you confessed a bit shyly. your eyes were trained on your strawberry ice cream and you tucked a strand of hair behind your ear. if that didn't make it obvious, the light pink hue on your cheeks surely did. Shauna looked up from her ice cream with her eyebrows raised in surprise. she was sure she had seen you hanging out with guys before. maybe they had just been friends but it didn't seem that way. not to mention the fact that everyone loved you. regardless of your sexuality, guys and girls loved how nice you always were to everyone. the boys especially loved looking at your sweet smile or listening to your laugh even though they knew you were just laughing to make them feel better. being pretty was just the nail on the coffin.
she had her reasons to ask you out, that was a given, but you being the sweetheart that the whole school loved, well, it just made it all the better. hearing that this had been your first date was shocking, surely someone would've already wanted to take you out. she had even seen you with the captain of the basketball team but maybe that was just a fling.
"really?" was her quiet surprise.
hearing her talk made you finally get the courage to look at her. "yeah. is it that surprising?"
Shauna shook her head quickly, "i just thought you dated Mason" she explained. the last thing she wanted to do was offend you or make you feel bad about your dating status. it's not like she'd been on many dates either.
the truth was that you had hung out with the captain of the basketball team. he was cute, had curly black hair that was always perfect. he had a sharp jawline and a perfect smile, not to mention the body of an athlete and he was kind. but he was just like any other guy. his idea of a date was hanging out in his basement with his friends whilst they got drunk or high with you on his arm, almost as if you were a prize. it lasted three months before you couldn't take it anymore. you didn't even talk, when he picked you up to take you to school he would just blast music. during lunch he'd talk to his friends and the one time you went out, he took you to watch a horror movie and tried to put his hand down your pants but you punched him before he could. it was then that you realized he only wanted to be the first guy to ever sleep with you.
after him you began to crush on Shauna so no one else would pry your mind like she would. she'd be the only girl you could think of during the day or before bed. the only time you wouldn't think about her smile and those brown eyes was when you slept.
your lips curved, "we hung out but the only time he took me out, he tried to do stuff that i didn't which led to a punch in the face. so i don't really consider it one" you said with a shy laugh. it was hesitant and Shauna could tell you were embarrassed by what you had just confessed.
"oh" she said her big eyes widening before she began to laugh along with you. that made you feel better about the whole thing.
you shrugged, "yeah. i guess im the cliche kind of spontaneous roses or dancing in the rain or showing up at my doorstep with a boombox. i don't know. i'm kind of a hopeless romantic which is stupid." with a shake of your head, you looked back down at your ice cream. the same blush that had been prominent practically throughout the whole night was still there and it was making your body burn in slight embarrassment.
Shauna was quick to reassure you, "it's not."
her words made your eyes snaps toward her. "really?" you asked hopeful.
she nodded. "yeah. i mean everyone is in a sense. i've actually always wanted someone to make a mixtape for me." she confessed and you could tell she was a bit flustered by her pink cheeks and the way her eyes kept darting down toward her shoes.
a smile formed on your lips. "why a mixtape?"
Shauna smiled as well. "i don't know. i guess the idea of someone taking the time to choose a song and everything is just really romantic" the two of you looked at one another for the first time that night. you saw her and she saw you. it was then that you realized who she was, not just the idea of her. and if you were being honest, it only made you fall even more.
that night during the drive to your house, you learned more about her. her favorite color, her favorite song, the reason she started playing soccer and even how she and Jackie became best friends. when she finally pulled up to your house, you expected her to just drop you off and leave but she didn't. instead, when you turned to say goodbye, she leaned in to press her lips against yours. it was sweet and short. even then, it had been the most magical kiss you'd ever experienced.
music was blasting through the speakers throughout the crowded home. drunk teens were all over the place, some just talking, others making out or playing beer pong. there was smoke from some teens smoking weed and some places were sticky with alcohol that had been spilled because of how drunk they were. outside, where there was a full moon and bright stars crowded around, drunk teens were in the hot tub and others just standing around with a drink in hand. the yellowjackets - mostly all were downstairs where most were playing beer pong. Jackie and Jeff were going against Taissa and Shauna. you had already gone but you sucked massively so you asked Tai to take your place.
you were standing to the side in between Lottie and Van who were talking about the last match which you all had won the last second. you weren't paying much attention, having to listen to them and also the four teens playing was starting to make you dizzy. Shauna and Taissa were competitive which meant they were trying their hardest to win. throughout most of it you could hear Jeff egging them on and telling them they sucked. it was obvious they were all joking by the way Shauna and Taissa had quick joking responses. even Jackie was in on trying to get in their head so she and her boyfriend could win. the prize? you weren't sure, probably just bragging rights but that didn't matter to them.
it was Jeff's infamous halloween party, you had arrived with Lottie since Shauna had gotten ready with Jackie. when the two of you decided to make it official, you didn't realize you also had to include Jackie in almost everything. they were best friends, sure, but Lottie was yours and you didn't have to include her when you hung out or had to cancel plans because she felt like you were neglecting her. you couldn't help but wonder if Shauna did that to her when it came to her and Jeff's relationship. just the other day you had planned a cute picnic date since it was going to be the last time it would be hot out, it ended up being Shauna, you and Jackie. maybe they didn't feel it but to you, it was awkward as hell. you spent the better half of the date listening to Jackie and Shauna talk as if they were alone and you knew your girlfriend felt bad, especially when she would place her hand on your thigh when you looked like you were zoning out or the way she would ask what you thought about the topic. it was sweet of her to think of you but you would've preferred if she had just cancelled.
that specific day had been no different. Lottie and you had gotten ready at your house. Lottie had on a purple skirt and a white shirt whilst you had on a black dress with thin lace at the edges of it. it wasn't irregular for you to wear such short dresses but the way Shauna looked at you when she saw you was like no one else had. sure, guys would gawk over you or check you out shamelessly but it was different when it came to her. she looked at you as if she needed you and you loved it. your girlfriend had on a short dress and you were sure that had been Jackie's doing and not hers.
it had been three hours so you arrived there and it was now almost two in the morning. you were a bit tired but Shauna seemed to be having fun so you didn't want to ruin that for her. she was your ride home after all. Lottie had offered but you hadn't been alone with the brunette since your first date which was almost three weeks ago and you wanted some privacy.
one red cup was left on both sides and the tension was growing between the four teens. Van and Lottie's conversation had been long forgotten as soon as they realized how close the game was to ending. it was Jackie's turn, everyone was tense as they watched her get the perfect angle. a moment later the ball flew across the table and landed swiftly in the last cup. groans erupted between Taissa and Shauna while Jackie squealed. you saw her turn to Jeff and throw her arms over his shoulders followed by him picking her up and spinning her. not really caring for them, you turned toward your girlfriend and friend instead. Taissa booed at them but it didn't really matter to her so she turned toward Van and Lottie to explain how she did have amazing skills but she 'had too many drinks'. that instilled a chuckle of amusement from you.
your eyes trailed away from your friends and toward your girlfriend who was looking at her best friend silently. at first you thought she was just being petty for losing but the longer you looked, the more it made sense. it had nothing to do with the game, it was them. you'd realized that when you first started paying attention to the brunette, the way she'd always look at Jackie distantly when she was with Jeff or the way everyone would always direct their attention toward Jackie and only ever acknowledged her presence with a small greeting. it was always about Jackie and you wanted things to change. things would be different with you, you'd make sure of that.
a smile curved on your lips and you took a step toward your girlfriend. the action made her finally pay attention to you, a small smile forming on her own lips. once you were close enough, you interlaced your hands on the back of her neck and pulled her close to you. "hi," you whispered softly which made her smile grow. she still had her hands at her side, something that had been a habit of hers since your first date. she was always too shy to touch you in any way, probably too afraid that you'd somehow not like her touch and pull away. that never crossed your mind though. instead of waiting for her to decide for herself, you grabbed her hands and placed them around your waist before putting your own back on her shoulders.
"hi," was her low response. you leaned in to peck her lips once making her smile grow and a light pink color to form on her face. you always found it extremely cute that she'd always blush when you kissed her.
she gripped your hips a bit tighter in support which you didn't mind. "wanna go upstairs?" you asked lowly so that none of your friends could hear you and make a big deal out of it. they had been teasing you about any little thing ever since your first date and although you weren't thinking about doing anything other than making out, you knew they wouldn't believe that.
the brunette nodded softly. that was enough confirmation for you to grab her hand and turn to the rest of the teens. "we're gonna get refills," you and began to walk away, not giving them enough time to protest. they were going to play another round which you knew and you didn't want any of them pulling her back. it was about time you had some alone time with your girlfriend.
"yeah sure," Tai called out behind you, "use protection!" she further teased making you roll your eyes in annoyance. with the hand that wasn't interlocked with Shaunas, you held it up and gave her the finger which earned snickers from the rest of the teens.
it didn't take long to get upstairs. there were some drunk teens crowding around the stairs and others making out in your way which made you have to shove past way too many people. the first room you entered was the bathroom so you quickly closed it and went to the next closed door. you wished you hadn't when you saw two half naked teens making out in Jeff's parents bedroom. finally, the next bedroom was empty and from what Shauna had told you, it was a guest room.
Shauna sat on the bed while you locked the door behind you. there was a sense of both excitement and nerves rumbling in your chest. not to mention the zoo of butterflies fluttering in your stomach. she was just Shauna. the girl who was probably just as nervous as you. the girl who had been nothing but sweet with you since you asked her to be your girlfriend. the girl who would open your car door or carry your backpack when she knew you had a more intense practice compared to her. the girl who would leave sweet little notes in your locker when you first started do it to her.
with deep silent breaths, you walked up to the brunette who was sitting at the very edge of the bed. she did look nervous. you could tell by her fingertips that were tapping against her thighs and the way she was biting her lip. it was probably the alcohol running through your body but it was enough courage to straddle her lap. you were hesitant at first, keeping your arms to your side so that she could push you off if she wanted to. she didn't. she placed her hand on your waist like she had just minutes before which helped you place your own hands on her shoulders for support.
you couldn't contain a smile, even when you bit your bottom lip to mask it. of course she'd still see how she was the one to make you like this. "i really like you." the words came out in a low whisper. you were close enough to smell the beer still lingering on her breath. close enough that you could see her soft skin and every little detail on her face. so close all you had to do was lean in a little bit and your lips would be on hers.
"i really like you too," she admitted in a whisper. her eyes kept glancing down at your lips and you knew what she wanted. you knew she wanted it but she couldn't do it. she was afraid to do something wrong or to mess things up with you. so you did it for her.
the distance closed between the two of you as you pressed your lips against hers. she kissed back instantly, her hands gripping at your waist which you had learned was a nervous habit of hers. typically the action would make you smile at how cute she was but the alcohol in you was making your body grow hot in a way you knew well. the kiss was slow at first. you were trying your best to let her ease into it since it was the first time you kissed longer than just a couple of seconds. you eased your way into it, leading her throughout it until she finally eased into it.
then the kiss grew rougher. her hands gripped at your waist a lot harsher as your tongues glided against one another. it was fast and hot and it made you want to grind onto her but you didn't. you weren't ready for that. not yet at least.
instead you gripped the back of her neck in support and got lost in the kiss. neither of you pulled away until your chests were burning with the need of oxygen. it was you who pulled away, both of your chest heaving up and down. pink lips were swollen and both of your pupils were blown out. the temperature in the room had began to rise and although you wanted to take things further, you didn't.
Shauna couldn't help but overthink if you thought she was good. did you think she was a bad kisser so you pulled away? were you going to tell that her that you wanted to go downstairs? it caused a wave of panic to rush through her so she did what she had seen done in movies dozens of times before. she leaned in to press kisses against your jaw, they were light and almost made you giggle but you fought the urge to. it didn't take long for her kisses to reach her neck. she pressed a small light kiss against your skin which made you smile and a small shiver to run down your spine. a second later she pressed down a lot rougher, her mouth opening and her tongue gliding against your skin. you moaned softly at the feeling and tangled your hands through her dark locks. when she began to suck at the skin, you pulled her hair a bit rougher than intended. the action fueled her pride, as well as every little noise you were making. even though you were trying to muffle it why biting your lip, she could still clearly hear you.
she didn't stop until you pulled her back by her hair so she'd meet your gaze. it's not that you wanted to stop but you were afraid that if she didn't, you'd take things further and regret it the next morning. a look of worry flashed through her eyes when you stopped her but you didn't let her overthink as you leaned in to kiss her. the kiss was wet and slow, unlike the one just before. she accepted your tongue gracefully and you could hear the lude noise throughout the room along with heavy breathing. as the kiss progressed, you realized you were wearing a dress and you began to realize that there was a possibly that she could feel how turned on you were. that made you pull away.
her eyes were closed as you looked down at her which made you smile. when they began to flutter open you leaned down to peck her lips quickly before pulling away completely. your teeth were on display as you smiled down at her. you were sure your cheeks were pink because so were here. she looked more disheveled though, her lips were a dark shade and her hair was messy from you pulling on it.
when the both of you recovered from such an intense kiss you both stood up, ready to go downstairs. you helped her fix her hair before you fixed your own appearance in the mirror. it didn't come to your attention that there something on you that hadn't been there when you first entered until Shauna pointed it out.
"shit," she whispered, her eyes locked on your neck. "im sorry, i didn't mean to." she nervously explained. you raised a brow at her, not really caught up on what she was apologizing for. instead of asking, you turned to the mirror and looked where her eyes had previously been staring.
oh.
there was a purple mark on your neck. it wasn't huge but it wasn't exactly small. definitely big enough that anyone else could see. it didn't bother you though. you actually found it kind of hot. you turned toward the brunette with a smile, "it's okay. i don't mind" were your words as you places a comforting hand on her arm.
"are you sure?" she asked quickly, far too anxious to believe you.
you nodded. "yeah. i'm sure"
the wave of relief that washed over her made your smile grow.
lights were hanging all around. there was christmas music in every store, on the radio and on the television. decorations were up on most homes making their house with Santa Clauses or Reindeers. christmas movies were on every channel and stores were packed with shoppers. it was the happiest time of the year and that was true for the couple. the time of year in which most families got together or traveled to celebrate.
wrapping paper was spread around the living room, the chimney on with the christmas tree lit up. the smell of freshly baked cookies and hot chocolate lingered around the kitchen and living room while 'home alone' was playing on the tv. there were kids running around playing with their new presents while the moms were in the kitchen making dinner. the dads of course, were sitting around talking or watching the movie on the screen. you weren't doing any of those things. instead, you were upstairs with your girlfriend who had snuck in after you finished opening presents. the brunette was laying down with you on her chest while you watched a christmas cartoon.
she had been there for almost two hours and you still had another hour before dinner was ready. you had asked your parents if she could come over but they had said no, claiming it was christmas and everyone should be with their family, including you. if only you actually talked to any of your family though. all of your cousins were children and the only one who was around your age, went to Mexico with her boyfriends family. that meant you had to either stick with your dad or your mom. both things sounded boring.
considering it was almost time for her to leave, you figured it was time to give her, her present. when she first arrived you exchanged presents but you had another one that you knew she'd love even more. she had gifted you a necklace with her initial on it, something you had been hinting at wanting since she gave you that hickey during the halloween party. after that night, it was as if neither of you could get enough. every time the mark would fade she'd make new ones. it would always result in your friends teasing you but it was with it. but like expected, your parents saw them when you had gotten in your hot tub. you had completely forgotten about it and didn't apply makeup like you always would. after that they said they wanted to meet your girlfriend. that was a very awkward dinner. your mom had made a 'sly' comment about how hickeys are tacky which left Shauna embarrassed. you hated that. she didn't even try to leave one after that day which would always leave you craving something to show that you were hers. it was soon after that in which you mentioned the necklace.
when you sat up, her arm fell from your waist. she looked at you confused, not expecting you to get up so abruptly. you moved across the room quickly and rummaged your desk until you finally found it. you quickly grabbed it and held it in the air as you turned your body in one swift motion. Shauna looked at you with wide eyes as, a smile playing on her lips at your excited state.
"i have one more present for you" were your words as you got back on the bed on your knees. you shuffled toward the brunette as fast as possible and handed it to her once you were close enough.
the brunette frowned gently, "i thought we said one present each" she said, now upset that she had only gotten you one whilst you had gotten her two.
with a shake of your head you looked down at the wrapped object. "it didn't cost me anything. it's just a small thing that i figured you'd like" you shrugged.
she looked a little hesitant but once she saw how hopeful you looked, her frowned turned into a smile once more and she began to unwrap it. considering how small it was, it didn't take long for the red and white wrapping to be crumbled into a ball on the bed. she looked confused at first as she looked at the cassette until she saw the words written on it. 'when i think of you -y/n'
her big brown eyes looked shiny as she looked down at it with her lips slightly parted in shock. suddenly her body came whirling towards you as she wrapped her arms around your body. she leaned back for a quick moment to kiss you softly before she leaned into the hug once more. you giggled softly at her actions. "those are the songs i always listen to what i think of you. which is always by the way." you said. even though it sounded as if you were joking, you weren't.

Don't Let Me Go
Tumblr media
Pairing: Stewy Hosseini x f (Roy) Reader
Word count: 2.9K
Author's note: THANK YOU SO MUCH NONNIE! I ADORE AND LOVE YOU! Every time I think about this request or read it, I'm kicking my feet and twirling my hair. This is so sweet and just the highest praise ever! WOW. I appreciate you, it was so sweet and I really hope you enjoy this! Please let me know what you think and feel free to message me! I love grief-related shows/movies (I love to be in my feels) so this was quite the interesting one. I apologise for any sadness this fic causes. I have more requests that aren't sad dw! Always open to Stewy requests as well. This can be read as a stand-alone/sequel to Furtive Hands. This also HAS NOT BEEN PROOFREAD lol. I hope you enjoy :)
Chapter/content warning: established/secret relationship, GRIEF, GRIEF, funeral, some fluff but just funeral grief and supportive Stewy.
The last week had been miserable, there was no other way to describe it or to do it justice. It should be raining, that would make sense for the funeral of such a commanding and depressing man, there also should’ve been thunder and lightning. Now that would’ve done justice for the thunderous man that your father was but maybe there was no thunder in the sky because it all left with him. 
You’re sitting in the backseat of the car with Shiv right in front of you as you wait for your brothers, both of the Roy daughters are dressed head to toe in black and a fine picture of grief. You’d gladly taken the backseat, it was worth the small risk of motion sickness, it meant it would be easier to distance yourself from any potential, yet inevitable drama. 
Shiv had a glassy expression that was hard to read, you picked up that there was something there that wasn’t just grief. You sat up a bit and leaned over closer, so your arms were resting on the back of her seat. 
“Are you okay?” You asked softly. 
Shiv’s head quickly turned to look at you, grief was there, some unshed tears in her eyes and she looked like a deer in headlights. Her lip trembled for a second and then she sighed and her blue eyes pierced yours. 
“Full disclosure…?” 
“Go.” You immediately replied and Shiv’s body moved more into your direction. 
“I really uh, fucked things up… Ken found out and Mencken, well he’s a form of stabbing a knife in return.” She breathed out and her eyes quickly left yours as she looked down at her body. “And I’m fucking pregnant, I-I told Tom and well he thought it was a fucking tactic.” She humourlessly chuckles as her eyes move to focus on the ceiling of the car. 
“Holy shit, Shiv.” You moved closer off your seat to rest your head on the top of the back of the seat dividing you two and put your hands out to hold hers, squeezing them softly and doing your best to genuinely smile for her. “I’m sorry, that’s a fucking lot. But congratulations! Congratulations? Should I be saying congratulations? If not we can go and sort it out, I’ll go with you if you want. Anything you need.” 
Shiv nodded as she kept her hand in yours and used her free hand to rub at her face a little. “I thought about it but I’m going to keep it. It’s fine. Thank you though. I’m planning to tell mom and that today so yeah.” 
“Thanks for telling me.” You responded giving her hand another squeeze and she nodded. After a few seconds, she let go of your hand and turned back around in her seat and not long after that your brothers joined you both. 
*******************
It had been an awkward car ride, you’d sunk into your seat, looking out the window as Roman and Shiv argued. You didn’t say a word, Kendall had eventually intervened and called for a truce which was agreed upon. Kendall had discussed Rava leaving the city with the kids which you thought was justified and you struggled to not call Kendall out, having to bite your tongue and fully focus your gaze on the windows. Right now was not the right time for sibling arguments. You’re sure that Kendall saw your pointed expression before looking out the window again. 
This had been tougher than you’d imagined. Roman had immediately broken during the speech, everything that hadn’t come out of him did then. Kendall had taken over, with a speech that had been well received but genuinely made you uncomfortable. Ever since you’d all sat down you’d been close to Roman, one hand gently on his back and the other hand holding his, he had a tight grip on it but he was doing slightly better now. Well, he was visibly. 
Each sentence that comes out of your sibling’s mouths feels like a blow and the casket is haunting you. Not as much as Roman though you suppose, if he wasn’t firmly planted onto the pew and with a pale, iron grip on your hands you thought you’d maybe float away. Or maybe you’d just sink down with the pressure of all the eyes, tears and smirks. 
As Shiv speaks, you know she’s right, her words about being his daughter have never been easy and it’s starting to get hot. Too hot. Sure there are hundreds of people in the church but it’s too hot even with that, you’re starting to overheat and your thoughts are overcrowding your brain. 
You look at Roman, your hand on his back and your other one holding his hand. You bite your lip, trying to force tears not to come. Unsuccessfully though. 
“I’m sorry, yeah, um I’m sorry Rome.” You let go of his hand and quickly move to squeeze past Connor and Willa in the pew. 
All of their eyes follow you in concern, you start to fidget with the corner of your sleeve while trying to regulate your breathing as you walk off to the side of the Church. You don’t know where to go, it doesn’t feel like anywhere is an option but it feels like you just need to leave. Anywhere but here, home or any place that’s ever had that title. Your mind is racing with that train of thought and another million ones, none are easier than the last though. It’s becoming overwhelming,  impossible. Your heart is beating so fast you can hear it and you can feel it beating so quickly it’s trying to carve itself out of your chest. It’s all so claustrophobic.  
An arm grabs you and you turn around to see that it’s Connor. 
“Hey, hey. Are you okay?” 
“It’s just a lot, I don’t think I can be- I don’t really want to be in here right now.” You quietly say, trying not to choke on the inevitable sobs. 
“Hey, it’s okay.” 
Connor’s gaze is focused on you and it’s gentle. Which somehow feels more intense, it amplifies the feeling of being under a microscope. You tug at your sleeve again as you feel the tears starting to get worse, you try to bite your lip as tightly as possible to stop the incoming sobs from arriving, to distract from the emotional pain with something physical. 
It doesn’t work though. 
You start to step away from Connor as your crying can now be heard, Roman stays frozen in the pew still trying to find some of his abandoned composure. Kendall’s noticed that this isn’t a toilet break and that Connor’s intervention isn’t cutting it and starts to make his way over. 
Kendall quickly realises that he’s not the only one who’s noticed and who is making their way over. Kendall’s compassion for you is still somewhat intact but today, controlling the narrative and putting out fires is his priority. 
“Stew, go. People are going to talk.” Kendall sternly whispers with a disappointed look, doing his best to communicate his point without drawing anymore attention to the scene. 
“Let them talk, I don’t fucking care Ken.” Stewy spits out with widened eyes. 
“You don’t want this story to break today, trust me.” 
“If it broke today it would drown in the rest of the funeral, Roman and the fucking GoJo numbers. You know that. Everybody does, it’s why Shiv and Matsson leaked it today.” 
“Follow the money back to your fucking seat.” 
“The money isn’t my priority here. She’s my partner.” Stewy says, Kendall scoffs and they both quietly walk over towards you and Connor. But you’ve been too overwhelmed to have noticed any of that interaction or them joining you and Connor in your weird corner towards the back of the church. 
“I need to- it’s so hot in here. It’s really fucking crowded, I know that you want a good turn out at a funeral but this is- it’s so unnecessary you know?” You cry out rambling and Connor’s concern shows more. You hadn’t publicly broken over your father’s death yet and Connor hadn’t seen you cry since you were a child. 
“Yeah, sure. Sure. A lot of people”
“It’s just so hot in here. I need cold air. Maybe some wine? Do you think there’s uh w-wine around? It’s a church, there’s bound to be wine, it’s Catholic- Holy Communion and all… Fuck.” 
“I don’t think there’s wine here you can drink.” Connor’s voice breaks a little.  
“I can’t do this, I don’t want to be in here. Connor please? Just I don’t know- I don’t fucking know.” You sob out and the tears and sobs just don’t stop. Connor puts his arms around you and does his best to keep some composure for your sake. 
Kendall and Stewy have now come over, Connor’s arms are still around you but you feel a hand on your back. One that rubs a little circle and you recognise that little pattern, the pressure, the touch itself. 
“Stewy?” You whisper out between a little sob.
“Hey, sweetheart.” His voice is soft and gentle as he continues to rub your back like he has a dozen times over the last several days. 
“I just- uh. I just, it’s so hot and claustrophobic. I needed air.” You’ve now left Connor’s arms to press yourself into Stewy’s side, his arms quickly replacing Connor’s as they wrap around you. You’re too overwhelmed to even consider or worry that your tears and makeup might be rubbing on his blazer. 
“I know.” 
Kendall is standing in an attempt to shield the rest of the world from this interaction, Connor’s hand is on your shoulder now. Stewy looks at Connor, tilting his head slightly towards you. Stewy smiles at Connor and nods, silently communicating that it’s okay and Connor can go back, which he does after squeezing your shoulder softly. 
“Can we- can- I need to go outside. I need air.” You muffle into Stewy’s side. Kendall pointedly looks at Stewy. 
“I know baby, I know. But there’s a lot of people outside still and cameras still.” Stewy says, as he rubs at your back comfortingly. Stewy isn’t worried about people seeing you both out there but about people seeing you in this state and it being immortalised in the media. 
“Fuck.” You mutter and the sobs become louder, more painful and desperate. 
You knew today would be hard, nothing was easy with your father. But you didn’t expect today to be so awful and to feel so trapped, he was gone, you shouldn’t feel like this but you just felt vulnerable, like the defenseless kid you were trapped in your childhood. Under a microscope for hundreds to zoom in on your pain, today wasn’t suffering just for your father’s amusement. 
“Yeah. We can get some air at the cemetery and take the long way back to the reception? Stop off somewhere if you want?” He asks softly. 
“We all came together-” Kendall starts. 
“I know-” Stewy quietly interjects. 
“I think I’ll go with Stewy, Ken.” You say quietly, you peek out a little from Stewy, puffy faced and wet with tears. Kendall doesn’t look super impressed at that, you can tell but he just gives a small nod.
There’s something about Stewy, his mere presence is a salve on your soul. Being buried into his side, being able to try focusing on the scent of his cologne instead of everyone and everything else is helping you remember how to breathe again. Your lungs remember how it all works again with Stewy at your side. 
“Do you want to sit down again before it ends?” Stewy gently inquires now that he’s noticed that your breathing is a bit more normal and the sobbing is more contained.  
“Sit with me?” Stewy nods. Kendall scoffs quietly but audibly and takes one of your hands and walks back to the front row pew of Roys, Stewy’s hand is gently on your back as he follows. You sit at the furthest end from Kendall, sandwiched between Willa and Stewy. Willa offers you a small but gentle smile and you press into Stewy’s side as he holds your hand in his. 
“Snot siblings.” Roman says as he finally looks at you, leaning across to give you a tissue. “Courtesy of the old Gerr-bear.” He adds as he refuses to look at the woman behind him. 
“Oh, thank you.” You whisper quietly and he nods looking away, just across from him. 
You’re aware that there’s more attention on you now over your little breakdown and at the development of Stewy coming over and then being at the front Roy children pew, Willa’s there of course but not even Tom or Rava are. You can tell Stewy’s aware of this as well as you look at his handsome side profile, he notices you staring and smiles at you, his arm around you squeezes you softly and he brings the hand of yours that he’s been holding in his lap up for a soft, sweet kiss. 
“Just breathe.” He whispers quietly as your hand in his goes back into his lap. You take a deep breathe, even consumed in your grief and the horror of this day you are so grateful for him. 
Despite the context, there is something freeing and peaceful about that. Being able to hold your hand in front of hundreds of people, kiss it and sit next to you. Stewy feels it deeply in his soul and while you perhaps can’t appreciate that right now, you can feel it too. 
****************
You didn’t stay to receive condolences like Kendall did. You immediately left with Stewy, ignoring the pointed and curious looks from everyone as he had an arm around you as you both quickly walked, he held the door open for you and you both sat in the backseat. 
As soon as you both were in and that door closed, you couldn’t help it. You just started crying. It was so overwhelming. 
“Hey, hey baby.” Stewy whispered into your hair as he pulled you tightly into him, he pressed some soft kisses to the top of your head. “I’ve got you.” He said softly. He was so soft with you today. But Stewy was always soft with you. 
Stewy held you tightly for the rest of the drive and when the car got to the cemetery you tilted your head, so you were still pressed against his chest and looked up. 
“Everybody knows now.” He wasn’t sure if it was a question or a statement, it was a fact either way. 
“Yeah-” 
“Are you okay with that? I’m sorry-” You asked quietly, letting out a little hiccup. Tears still in your eyes. 
“I don’t fucking care who knows. I love you. You baby. The whole world can know and there’s a lot going on today, I think this will be the least of anybody’s concerns or key takeaways. I just care about you.” 
You lean up to give him a soft kiss on the lips, which he eagerly but gently returns. 
“I love you too.” 
“That always helps.” He says and you let out a dry chuckle at that, as you bite your lip looking out the tinted window. “Should we try one of those exercises?” 
“Exercises? I don’t think we can fuck in your car at the cemetery when everyone is here to dispose of my dad-” You say with another dry laugh but some more tears come to stain your cheeks. 
“No, no, no baby.” Stewy chuckles and flashes you a charming smile. “Those like grounding, breathing, you’re an amazing professional ones? Oh the colour one! Um, what’s something purple you can see?” 
You look at Stewy in awe of his sweetness despite the douchey exterior most have to deal with. Your eyes briefly skim around the car and the sea of people in black outside. 
“We’re at a funeral, everyone’s wearing black… Where’s the purple Stewy?” You ask in a tone as teasing as possible but a small sob comes out of you. 
“Well you know I have nothing against outfit repeating but I’d worn a purple blazer to the wake- that wasn’t even a week ago baby. There’s a line, and it would’ve crossed the line. With the turtleneck and trousers and a purple blazer it would’ve looked like I was wearing the same outfit. I can’t do that, not in a week, let alone for two death-related events. People would know.” Stewy rambles on. 
You can’t help but laugh at his ramble, only he would be acutely aware of that and have considered this all in great detail. You laugh into his blazer and nod. He wears a large smile on his face as he notices that this seems to have cheered you up somewhat. There’s still tears but that’s to be expected, he’s just glad that there’s somehow some smiles and laughs in there as well. 
You press yourself into him tightly, inhaling his comforting scent and presence. “Don’t let me go. Not out there, in here. Ever, please.” 
“I’d never dream of it, baby..” Stewy says softly as he presses a kiss into your head and then you both leave the car holding hands.

⤷ haarrysmoustache jeff was doing with yn what he does with harry, minimal social media + public spottings
⤷ harrysbtch buuut, harry said himself that he doesn't like social media and tries to avoid it as much as possible (he's now all over it with olivia but who am I to judge???)
⤷ ynsmymama oh, that might be it. yn said in one of her interviews that she didn't mind social media because she learnt how to deal with it (and that interview was in 2019, while still being managed by Jeff)

celebrityupdates Harry Styles (28) and Joseph Quinn (29) are YN YSN's (25) respectfully past and present boyfriend. From what we know the breakup was rather ugly but now? It doesn't seem like it. On the photos you can see Harry and Joe wearing the suits from Harry's newest Gucci line HA HA HA. Is that the promotion? Or it's just another stunt relationship in the industry? Or perhaps Harry Lambert (Styles' designer and friend, as well as YN's friend) found a way to promote the fashion line he's a part of? Read more in our newest article, link in our bio.

enews pinned! 'Harry in his latest interview let people know that one of his favourite books is Mans Search For Meaning by Victor E. Frankl. Book that YN was recommending to Joe Quinn.'
enews pinned! 'Joe Quinn played Eddie Munson in one of the Netflix hit shows, Stranger Things. In the last episode he was playing Master Of Puppets by Metallica. The said song was taught to him by Styles' friend and bandmate, Mitch Rowland. Our source said that it caused an argument between Harry, Mitch and YN. Harry apparently was furious that his friend was still in contact with his ex girlfriend and her new best friend (at that time YN and Joe weren't together yet).'
ynupdates the suits situation is messy. i can't imagine joseph being super excited about wearing his girlfriend ex's design. it's just weird...
⤷ harryupdates expecially that Joe was super happy about wearing Gucci, and the patch on Joe's sleeve doesn't have the HA HA HA logo. maybe it's just a similar design?
⤷thejoequinnupdates joe was wearing the suit before the clothes from HA HA HA collection were being sent to their ambassadors. imo it's an early lambert's design for HA HA HA. and because yn is his friend as well he did the suit for Joe. then Harry used it for the HA HA HA. promo at its best. HA HA HA is trending and the online store has no products available. Harry played it well.
⤷ ynupdates if that's true then i feel sorry for yn, really sorry. her ex is using her current boyfriend for promo which is sick and twisted. man just move on.
ynshands we thought harry moved on while still being in a relationship with yn but we were wrong. that bitch is still in love with her...
⤷ ynsmybestie can you blame him?
⤷ ynshands bestie, im so in love with her that it's unhealthy, something close to what harry's doing tbh 💀
hArrysbtch hes a simp 😭 woah

hiii! i have some new suits for you and joe to try before your new movie premiere. when are you two free??
yn🐐
when did you plan to tell me you're going to dress him in the same thing as joe?
hrr lmbrt
it's not exactly the same suit, yn. joe had the cotton one and harry had a cotton+silk one. the print is also different.
yn🐐
people on the internet don't know that, lamby. they are sure joe is somehow connected to your new clothing line. they're making a lot off buzz around it.
hrry lmbrt
yn, you know how it works...
yn🐐
was he the one to propose it or was it jeff?
hrr lmbrt
i don't know, babe. got the information from above.
yn🐐
don't bullshit me, harry. you said you want to stay friends despite all the things that happened between him and I. act like a friend then, please.
hrr lmbrt
jeff's idea but harry wasn't really opposed to it
but please don't do anything you'll regret.
yn🐐
i already lost one relationship because of him. I'm not going to lose another one. I won't let him destroy my happiness again. I truly care about joe, lamby
hrr lmbrt
maybe go a little easy on harry. he's not doing well.
yn🐐
it was nice catching up, lamby. if the suits aren't or won't be part of that collections then we're free on friday.

next time you plan to get under my skin use me or my name, stay away from people I love, Jeff. your way of promoting him is getting out of hand.
jeffrey
hello yn, nice hearing from you. I see you saw the suit Harry was wearing. such a nice piece of clothing, wasn't it?
yn ysn
this is the last time you're hearing from me jeff. next time it's going to be Ronnie and eventually my lawyers. your ways are too invasive for my liking. you used my name and my relationship for years, i think that's enough. stay away from Joseph, he has nothing to do with you or him.
jeffrey
I don't understand why are you so dramatic about it? it's just a suit. it's not like only we got benefit from it. your and your boy's things got promotion as well.
yn ysn
it's not just a suit. you control him well, we both know that. you can prevent him from doing what he's doing. it's unhealthy.
also, i don't need promotion like that, never did. you just think that ploting behind people's backs is the best solution. it's not.
goodbye, Jeff. like I said next time you're invading my or my partner's life you'll hear from our lawyers.
jeffrey
can't wait, yn.

well, im your boyfriend, that's probably enough.

it shouldn't be, we talked about it.
at least lamby said it was jeff's idea, just like i had thought.
enough of that, where are you coming home? i made pasta

sunshine - kwon soonyoung
“you’ll always be my sunshine in the rain”
pairing; kwon soonyoung x fem!reader
genre; fluff, drama, unrequited love
warnings; minimal mention of drinking, soonyoung and reader get rained on in the middle
wordcount; 1.6k
synopsis; the one who stayed by your side no matter how many times you got fired from different jobs, tells you no matter the outcome, you’ll always be his sunshine in the rain.
read below the cut !
you had just been fired from your third job within a span of 7 months. not that you really did anything, you were always a competent employee, just the fact your overly.. energetic (to say the least) friend group would always seem to forget they are in public when they visit you. and once your boss found out they were yours, you paid the price no matter how much you tried.
“im sorry. i know it’s not you whos personally at fault, but we’ve been getting to many noise complaints from both owners next door. so we have to let you go, im really sorry again.” your boss, minnie, had told you before firing you from the bakery.
i mean, it made some sense that there would be noise complaints as the people next door were a tutoring company and a book store, but why would you have to be the one to take the blame?
at the end of the day, they were still your best friends, so you tried to see past it. but you really needed the money with rent due soon, not to mention the bills on top of all that. ‘i really might need to cancel my netflix and hulu subscription..’
you do have a roommate, sana, who you of course are close with, but with her being in law school, she was barely home.
of course she paid her share as she was pretty financially stable not to mention she still slept there (sorta) often, yet you never could ask her for money. though you went to high school and finished college together, it still felt weird asking for money.
so you sucked it up and went job hunting online, texting some of your (other) friends if they knew any available positions in the retail industry.
after 3 hours, you gave up. it was about 5pm now, and you had been rejected by around 15 different stores.
you decided to take a break to eat, and made a quick sandwich.
you scrolled through your phone mindlessly, before you received a notification from the one and only tiger lover (you really cringed when he told you to make that his contact name), soonyoung.
hoshi; r u ok
hoshi; srry me and kyeom got u fired
hoshi; picking u up
hoshi; dress nice
hoshi; jk u always do
hoshi; be there in 25
you sighed at his sad attempt to cheer you up. of course, him and seokmin were your best friends (among other things) yet you seriously had no idea how to move forward career wise.
you thought of just not telling them where you worked but they always found out one way or another.
even so, despite the desperate need for money you appreciated all soonyoung did for you. if he wasnt able to support you financially, he definitely always would mentally/emotionally.
with a heavy groan, you drag yourself off the couch to get dressed as you realized the minimal time you had left before he’d arrive.
you put on a yellow dress with yellow frill short sleeves, as well as a random pair of white sneakers before grabbing your bag and phone just as soonyoung texted he was parked outside.
“is that the dress i bought for you a while back?” he questioned while he backed out the parking lot.
“yeah. just never really had the chance to wear it since i was always working.”
“im sorry about that, again. i know you aren’t exactly the most financially stable but just know you can always come to me if you need-”
“soonyoung- weve been over this, i cant just ask you for money. i could never impose on you like that.”
“its not imposing if im the one offering it to you. but really, i don’t mind. im more then comfortable money wise right now.”
“only cause you live in cheols basement.”
“its not a basement- its a bedroom below the main floor. and josh literally has his own room on the same level as me! you know what thats besides the point. but you get what i mean!”
“yeah- you’re a group of 5 grown men living in a small technically one story plus a loft house with a.. not-basement because none of you wanna pay bills on your own.” you chuckled, rolling your eyes as you let the wind blow in your face through the crack in the window.
“hey! you’re saying that like we all don’t pay our own fair share.”
“whatever. where are we going anyway.”
“somewhere.”
“no way. are you kidnapping me?” you dramatically gasped, putting a hand over your chest.
“stop talking or im dropping you off at the nearest insane asylum.”
after a good 15 minutes of driving, you realized soonyoung had taken you to the old park you used to always visit together, recalling all the fond memories while the rushed back to you when you first stepped out onto the grass.
you noticed soonyoung taking a smallish basket out the trunk before you connected the dots it your head — he had taken you onto a picnic.
“you coming? this basket isnt getting any lighter.”
soonyoung had brought all sorts of your favorite comfort foods, ranging from strawberry shortcake, to tteokbokki, and even spam musubi.
as you took a bite out of your slice of cake, you let out a little gasp as a bee danced around your fork, before eventually flying to crawl over your dress.
you immediately stood up to shake it off you, sighing in relief as you saw it fly away (thanks to soonyoung swatting it but youre an independent person)
“you’re that freaked out over a small bug?”
“it was a bee! i dont want it to sting me or get in my cake.”
“it only stings you if you attack it first.”
“you’re lucky i didn’t attack you. why are all the bees coming towards me and not you anyway?”
“guess the bees know who the real flower is.” he smiled, before digging back into his own food like it was nothing.
your heart melted at the little comment, but it was expected from soonyoung. you shouldn’t get all worked up from something so usual/normalized, you told yourself.
but if it was so normal, why was your heart beating so fast?
“that was a little sudden. what was that all about?”
“oh that? yeah i like you.” he shrugged like it was nothing, the words rolling off his tongue so naturally as if he was responding to the most obvious question in the world. like, what color is the sky, or, how the hell do you respond to your super cute best friend that you find attractive, saying he likes you but he just got you fired thrice??
you felt the air being knocked out your lungs, absolutely speechless.
“i only said it so naturally cause i know you don’t feel the same, you know,” soonyoung mumbled, seemingly reading your mind. “just kinda needed to get it off my chest.”
“soonyoung..”
“no i get it. i mean i can’t expect you to love me especially ive been such a bad friend. i knew you were struggling and yet i still got you fired. from three different jobs.”
“im really sorry.”
“no need, if anything i should be sorry.”
“you know i still really care about you, right.”
“course you do, its only natural, anyway”. he forced a smile, though he wasn’t quite sure what else he expected.
though, he supposed a small part of him was holding onto something, wishing maybe you could’ve been a little more.
coincidentally, you began to feel small raindrops against your finger tips. you looked up to see the once bright blue sky had turned gray and gloomy.
“that’s weird.. I don’t remember seeing any rain in the forecast..”
soonyoung immediately packed up everything as soon as he could the moment he felt the rainfall coming down harder and faster.
by the time he was done, you both were pretty drenched.
he dug through the neatly packed basket to grab his black denim jacket to wrap around your shoulders as he guided the two of you to the car through the rapidly shifting winds.
soonyoung was meant to drop you off, but you invited him in. despite all his personal protests, he still went in anyway.
you poured yourselves some red wine, sitting on the floor by the warm fireplace after the cold rain soaked you both.
“i dont know if it’s the wine talking but you are really attractive, even if i don’t see you the way you see me.” you slightly slurred.
“well. you know what they say, drunk words are sober thoughts.” he awkwardly chuckled.
“im sorry.” you drunkenly mumbled, your head tipping over to fall onto soonyoungs shoulder.
he quickly took your wine glass to put onto the coffee table behind you in order to avoid staining the fluffy white carpet.
“what for?”
“i still really care about you.”
“well. you’ll always be my sunshine in the rain, even if it’s only ever just as friends.” soonyoung whispered to you, pulling his jacket tighter over your shoulders while you let yourself be absorbed by your own dreamland.

chapter 7: tiktok advice
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jaemin opened the apartment door as y/n rushed in. She beelines straight to Jisung's room only to see him on the floor rocking back and forth against the wall. She couldn’t help but feel sad at the sight. “Jisung,” she said softly, she walked towards the frantic boy. She sits down next to him and puts her hand on his arm, rubbing circles with her thumb. “Can I try something Jisung?” she asks. He looks at her surprised but hesitantly nods as he tries to control his breathing (somewhat failing). She reaches down into her pocket to find her white wired headphones that were connected to her phone from the walk (more like run) here. She took her hand off and put the headphones on jisung. She played a playlist named steady. “Why did you do that?” Jaemin asked as he hovered over the boy and the girl from the door. “I saw a TikTok saying it helps with panic attacks so I wanted to see if it would work” she responded. Jaemin’s mouth couldn’t help but fall open, “so you put the fate of our son in the hands of TikTok” Jaemin said. Y/n rolled her eyes and she moved closer to Jisung. He eyes her but then gives her a small nod. His chest slows down and his movements become less frantic in the next few minutes. She goes back to her original position except this time she wraps her arms around his left, pressing it against her like a teddy bear. Once the frantic moments stopped, y/n laid her head on the boy’s shoulder. Jaemin decided to come close and sit beside them, rubbing circles reassuringly on Jisung’s knee. They stay in this position until he falls asleep.
side story: hw assignment #2 (jisungs pov)
It felt childish to do a homework assignment like this in college. Worksheets were being passed around the class like we were back in high school. The big black bold letters sat on top of the paper in a font that seemed fitting for kindergartners. “Who is your hero?”. I couldn’t help but internally sigh, of course an English elective has to do the most. I looked at the paper with a straight face; who the fuck do i write about? Iron man? I thought about it for a second but then pushed the idea away. There was no way I could write a 2000 word paper on my emotional connection with Iron Man. I overhear everyone around me talking. “Oh this is easy” “Who are you gonna do?” “My mom for sure” “Hmm probably my dad or brother not too sure”. I continue to stare at my paper; there’s no way I’m writing a paper on my deadbeat family members, maybe iron man really is the best option. I stare deeply at the paper, god someone, anyone, why can’t I think, why does everybody gotta put their family member, who the hell do I put, what the fuck. My thoughts become interrupted as I get a text on laptop screen. hello my offspring it read. I softly smiled, I guess I know who to write about now.

READ PART 2 HERE
Y/N L/N has always felt like she's living on the sidelines of the interesting life in Hawkins. She was the party's original babysitter and that's pretty much the only reason she found out about the Upside Down. Or that's what she likes to believe because it's easier to try to figure out why she feels so lonely all the time even when surrounded by so many people who are compassionate and loyal. I guess it all started with that little voice in her head telling her all kinds of bad things about herself and what others must have thought of her. As a kid, that voice was barely a whisper, mainly appeared when she felt anxious or guilty, but as she grew older, in her teenage years…that's when it all started to change. I wish I could say for the better though. Her anxiety just grew, and people just thought she was odd, which is way too dramatic, but high school, right? Judgment was in everyone's shadow.
Of course, she had always heard of Steve Harrington, hell, they were in the same grade but for Y/N, high school was just an enter, take classes, leave, sort of thing. While Steve lived for high school. He was their king after all.
In the year 1984 though, Y/N started to notice Steve more when he ended up helping a very dorky-looking Dustin Henderson while Y/N was babysitting, which they all forgot she was doing until they saw her casually hanging out in his house like she did every other day. From that day on, Y/N saw Steve Harrington in a different light. And she also noticed the change. She first noticed when Steve told Nancy, aka the girl who just a few days prior had broken his heart to go after Jonathan. Yeah, no one really saw that coming but no one really thought of it too much, except for Y/N of course, who after hearing the story from her lab partner about Tina's party made her catch up on the "drama" and to say she was intrigued would be an understatement.
By 1985, Y/N finally made what she felt was her first genuine friend that wasn't a 13-year-old or someone she technically worked for. Yeah, Robin Buckley. And when she found out she was working with Steve at the new mall…well, that made them more than acquaintances. Or that's what she thought. But the truth is Steve didn't see Y/N with that admiration and puppy eyes she did for him and most of the time it didn't bother her because it wasn't something new, but occasionally when that voice I was talking about would creep in, she couldn't help but feel…doomed. Again, dramatic, but that's 18-year-olds for you.
One day Y/N had enough. And by one day, I mean, the night she saw Sixteen Candles for what would be the first time of many. She decided she would not wait around or feel sorry for herself like Samantha, even though Molly Ringwald became her new role model. She would start gaining Steve's heart or…at least try.
Later that week Y/N went to visit Robin to get some info on Steve's dating life and what he thought of her…if he ever did that is.
Y/N entered the familiar video store looking for Robin. She knew she hated to talk about Steve's dating life because let's face it, she heard about it a lot. More than she would like to admit. So, Y/N brought Robin her favorite type of bagel in hopes to convince her. Robin already suspected she had a thing for Steve, but she didn't want to push it for so many reasons.
“Oh no…” said Robin when she saw that I'm going to ask you for something, and I brought something to convince you face. And she did not want to hear about it right now, it's been a long day having a solo shift and all.
“Robin! Good, you're here.” Y/N approached her with all of her bubbly excitement that didn't really match that shy energy she portrayed sometimes.
“Actually…I was just-” anyone aside from Y/N could tell that even though Robin loved her and would take a bullet for her, the love life of one Steve Harrington was something she didn't want to discuss. At least not before a well-deserved nap.
“You might want to sit down. I have huge news and a favor to ask you.”
“You like Steve, and you want my help convincing him to date you?” Robin deadpanned. If they were going to do this, at least she wanted to be straightforward about the issue at hand.
“Wow,” said Y/N surprised. Was she being obvious? Did she say something to make it obvious? Or did something? Yeah, hello inside voice.
“--It's kind of a giveaway. You said he's funny.” And there it was. Robin could not be any less thrilled about this, but this was her best friend after all.
Y/N decided to ignore that inside voice of hers by telling Robin all about this awakening she supposedly, suddenly had.
“It's crazy. I mean, I've always thought of him as a cute guy, might be good for a night of rough-and-tumble fun but it's not like we have anything in common.”
“So, ignore it, it's probably just gas.” could Robin convince her to not go there? That it would end up in just heartbreak? Because as much as she loved Y/N, she didn't really know if she was Steve's type. Steve's type being... Nancy Wheeler or, at least that was before Jonathan came back and Steve went through a second heartbreak.
“But then he helped with all the things that were happening at Hawkins and he grew into this…lovable cute guy, and it was like Dorothy landing in Oz, everything just popped into technicolor.” Y/N continued not being able to stop that growing smile of hers.
“Huh,” said Robin. She didn't really know what to say without unintentionally hurting her feelings.
Y/N's smile faded in a heartbeat; now her face held a sad look. “Do you think I don't know what that means?”
“I said, huh.” Robin was coming off as kind of a douche, but honesty was one of the things she loved most about the girl.
“Meaning, “huh, that Y/N, she is so pathetic. Someone's the least bit nice to her and she becomes totally obsessed with them, first that science tutor of hers and then the guy from New York when he lent her a subway ticket, now Steve.”
“Oh, you know, well isn't it’s kind of true?” Robin couldn't help but recall all those events being the first to hear about them. To say Y/N had attachment issues...well, we won't go there.
“So what? Yes. I have a psychological predilection to become romantically attached to men who are nice to me due to the fact that I was raised by a she-wolf of a mother who practiced emotional terrorism. Does that mean that if by some miracle love does come into my life, I should deny it? What kind of person would that make me mhm? What kind of life?”
Y/N was rambling and at this point, how could she explain her feelings when they have all ended up in some sort of humiliation? One would think she would give up but... she always had hope, people had to give her that.
“Okay, okay, Y/N, what do you want me to do?”
Like if Y/N knew her love life would get Robin to agree she went back to that excited tone she had on earlier. “Find out if he's ready to start dating.”
------------------------------------
Robin called Steve's house knowing that he had the day off and was probably sleeping or feeling sorry for himself. That seemed to be a recurring theme around Hawkins nowadays.
“Hello.”
“Hey,” said Steve recognizing Robin’s voice instantly.
“Uh so, glad your home. Finished the movie last night?” she had to make it seem like a natural conversation but starting with the small talk was probably not the most Robin thing to say.
“Which one?”
“Aha. Are you ready to date again?” Again, Robin couldn't help but want to get to the point so she could finish this argument for the day.
“What?” Steve was taken back. First, Robin got used to getting annoyed with Steve's endless dating life stories, now, she clearly was asking if he was ready to start dating again after... Nance the sequel.
“Simple question.” you could tell the urgency in Robin’s voice.
“I have no idea. Why?” said Steve confused.
“Okay. Cool.” that's when Robin hung up the family video phone and told Y/N about the short conversation she just had.
"He's not sure," said Robin, begging for this to be over.
"Interesting." Well, it wasn't a no per se so, Y/N's hope was definitely intact.
 -----------------------------------
Later that week Y/N tried to get closer to Steve, by showing up to his shifts and renting random movies he would recommend, hoping Steve would come and pick Dustin up when she was babysitting, she even went out of her comfort zone to try and met him at some of the most popular spots for teenagers. But nothing seemed to work, she was convinced Steve was not interested at all; these were all big coincidences and formalities. Not gonna lie, that crushed her spirit a little bit. Therefore, she was now laying on her bed feeling sorry for herself like one normally does of course.
That's when her sister came in shouting.
“Y/N did you take my lip gloss with the bee pheromones on it?”
“It's on the dresser…” Y/N's voice sounded sad and defeated which caught her sister's attention.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, peachy.” the sarcasm was great in these types of moments.
“Talk.”
Y/N sighed, even though she really didn't want to talk about it she could use some sisterly advice and from someone who won't try to judge her or look down on her.
“Okay, so, what do you do when you like a boy, and he barely knows you're alive and you already pretended to be his money advisor and I'm…out of options.” she cringed at her own words realizing how crazy she was sounding right now.
“Okay…Well, this may sound a little weird but try dressing up fabulous and going to a place where you'll run into him.” said her sister as a matter of factly, like this was some common knowledge that maybe Y/N never heard about.
“That's it?” Y/N sat up looking at her sister better to tell if she was being serious. And she was.
“That's it.”
“That really works?” Y/N couldn't believe it, that sounded way too simple and maybe just maybe she shouldn't have tried too hard.
“Almost every time” her sister decided to continue sharing some of the tips she had learned over the years. “And I mean, touching his arm when you guys are talkin, it's always good, dancing, and body contact and laugh at his jokes- I mean, even if they're not that funny.”
“Oh! I do that already! Okay, what else?” Y/N excitement was coming out again as if it was restoring itself and was ready to try again.
“You could…walk in front of him, I mean if he's a butt guy…”
Y/N looked serious for a moment thinking about what she just said. “I don't know if he's a butt guy…”
“Well, it can't hurt, I mean sis, you have a great butt.” she knew her sister could use all the confidence in the world right now and she was more than happy to provide it, in the end, Y/N has always been there for her, and she wanted nothing but the best for her.
“You're such a sweetie! Tell me more.”
 ---------------------------------
A few days later some girl from high school was throwing a party for Hawkins High class of '84. Meaning, that Y/N and Steve would be there. Probably Robin too now that he and Robin were pretty much glued to the hip.
So, of course, Y/N saw this as the perfect opportunity. She dressed up like her sister told her to, she decided on this pastel pink dress with some puffy sleeves, lace on top and a cute flower pattern, to be honest, it was a little too girly for her taste, she almost went back to change into her baggy jeans and an oversized colorful sweater but she knew that wouldn't catch Steve's attention so she chose her first option in the hopes to not embarrass herself in the process.
Arriving at the party Y/N found this new confidence in herself at least for the next few hours she thought.
“Hello Steve,” she said giving him her best put-together smile while shoving all her nerves inside.
“Y/N, hi…you look um…” Steve was stunned, no reason to lie here. To say he wasn't expecting her in that outfit would be...correct.
“I look nice?” Y/N said probably too quickly. To this moment we can't tell if it was intentional or not.
“Nice, yeah. That's the word I was looking for.” Steve mumbled that last part. Truth is, she looked gorgeous anyone could see that but he couldn't help but notice she didn't really look like herself but who was he to judge on her fashion choices? So, he let it go.
“Well, so do you. Would you like to dance?” Part two of Y/N's plan was getting close to Steve in hopes to talk more.
Steve's eyes widen, he didn't really do dancing anymore. “Actually, I'm not much of a dancer, probably shocking.”
“Maybe you'll learn” Y/N cringed at herself and how she was supposed to think before she talked. “Not that I'm a teacher or anything, of course. It's just you know…fun.” she had to stop her rambling somewhere...
Steve couldn't help but smile. “Yeah, okay.”
“Okay.” With that Y/N returned that smile in no time, hoping she didn't look too eager.
Steve and Y/N realized this was a fancy house party when they suddenly started to play Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper. Probably not their first choice, they were hoping for a little Toto or maybe even Billy Joel. So, after that awkward moment of shall we really slow dance? passed and Steve gestured for Y/N in a May I have this dance matter she giggled and put her arms around his neck while he was curling up by her waist.
“We did not hate you,” said Steve now talking to Y/N about the old days at Hawkins High when he was King Steve. Knowing about supernatural creatures and graduating in the same year was about everything they had in common so for a topic of discussion they decided to talk about the latter.
“Oh, you totally hated me, come on, you were probably the president of we hate Y/N club.” Everyone could tell Y/N was shy and an introverted soul, but she could take a punch either it meant literally or emotionally. But of course, this conversation was meant to be outgoing and fun, leaving all their cringy selves in the open.
“I was the secretary. I took the notes.”
“Steve! you made a real joke.” Y/N couldn't help but crack a smile so big that her cheeks started hurting.
Steve got a little shy and he mumbled a little bit. “Yeah… a pretty bad one but I made a real joke, thank you but don't tell anyone.”
After that, the song ended and before it became awkward again, Steve decided to do something about it before it was too late. He was actually having fun after all.
“You wanna drink?”
“That'd be nice.”
Steve walked to the kitchen to get himself and Y/N a drink when he noticed Robin walk in with a grin on her face. Of course, she saw that whole scene.
“Hey,” said Steve without really looking at her, too busy serving the right drinks. Something with a fruity flavor for Y/N he thought.
“Hey! saw ya dancing with Y/N.” And there it was.
That made Steve look in her direction for a moment. “Yeah. Is that look supposed to mean something?” he deadpanned, of course, he knew she was implying something.
“Crazier things have happened. Nothing I can't recall this instant.”
Steve didn't find this conversation amusing. For some reason, he started to realize he was getting defensive about the topic. It's not like it's the first time Robin had said something like that but about a different girl of course. “Okay. I don't think so.”
“Ask yourself why. She's smart, she's funny-” You could tell Robin had really thought about what Y/N had said to her and decided to support her friend.
“Buckley just forget about it okay? I'm not gonna date Y/N.”
And of course, with the great luck they usually had, Y/N had just walked to see if Steve needed help with the drinks. Robin noticed her first and gave her this apologetic look, of course, she didn't want her to feel bad and the same applied to Steve, so he cursed himself for saying it out loud.
Y/N had this deer caught in the headlights look like she was just humiliated which would make sense.
“Ahm I was just…excuse me,” she said before walking off and leaving the house. Trying to find her keys as fast as possible so she could just drive away and forget this ever happened.
“Y/N, Y/N whoa whoa whoa hold on, let me explain.” Steve got out himself trying to stop her.
“I think you were pretty clear Steve. And yes, I lied when you asked me that one time if I liked you but…what was I thinking I mean, you and me? It's just…I must be totally crazy-”
“You're not crazy, okay?” he said in a heartbeat. Probably didn't even realize it.
“Steve, I pretended to be your money advisor to seduce you.”
Huh. Yeah, he kinda did forget about that. “Well, that was crazy.”
“Don't worry because I'm sure next week I'll be totally obsessed with some guy who gives me change for parking,” she said sarcasm dripping down every word.
“Look, what I said has absolutely nothing to do with you okay? It's just that…”
“What? That…for the longest time all you could feel was your desire to get back Nancy Wheeler but now that's gone so you feel empty, can't feel anything, least of all anything for me?”
Steve opened and closed his mouth a few times after he found any words. Because believe it or not she did have that effect on him. To leave him speechless. Why? That he didn't know yet.
“How do you keep doing that?”
“Doing what?” said Y/N confused.
“That. You keep telling me what I'm thinking before I feel it.”
Oh. “Because I think about you. I want you to be happy and I think that if you gave it a chance you might feel something too.” she thought what the hell better lay everything down now that he knows, she wasn't expecting on telling him like this but like always she remained hopeful.
“Y/N…” Shit. Steve didn't want to hurt her feelings I mean; he knew what it felt like to be rejected after pouring your heart out to someone and he felt like crap to do it to someone else.
But before he could continue Y/N decided to answer for him.
“Are you gonna tell me that you really like me as a friend?” she narrowed her eyes and it felt like she could see right through his soul.
Damn. She's good. “Maybe…?”
Clearly, that's the worst thing he could have said when she just walked away with this annoyed pace if that even is a thing. Leaving Steve alone with his thoughts.
“How did she do that?”
 --------------------------------------
Later that night Y/N decided to visit Robin's house. Even though tonight was a total wreck she had one last thing to do. Which made her knock on Robin’s door hoping she would answer. And she did.
“Robin,” said Y/N in this sad tone.
“Y/N! What are you doing here?” she wasn't expecting her at 1 in the morning outside her house.
“Um…when I had really bad grades last year, my sister's boyfriend gave me this finances guide and I thought it might help Steve with his problems, I would have given it to him before, but I was trying to seduce him so…” she couldn't help and look at her shoes. Realizing she hasn't changed from her Cinderella outfit if you will.
“So, why can't you just give it to him?”
“Because. I'm too embarrassed. You were totally right. Here I am, trying to get into college and living like a refugee at my sister's, and Steve's nice to me so I fall for him? it's just totally pathetic. Just, please give that to him.”
Well shit, now Robin felt even more terrible.
“Wow, I never thought I would see you quitting.”
That made Y/N look up in surprise. “What? It's completely hopeless Robin, you heard him.”
“Yeah no, it's just, you rolling over like an old dog…not the Y/N I remember…”
“Are you seriously trying to Jedi mind trick me?” Y/N deadpanned.
“Y/N L/N, quitter. I guess I'll just have to get used to that.”
Sure, Y/N's ego was a little bruised, but Robin was kinda right, that was taking it too far. Hell, she has fought Demogorgons and she was scared to face Steve Harrington? No. No way.
“Fine.”
 ---------------------------------
Y/N soon realized Steve was staying at Robin's for the night due to not wanting to be in his big house alone for the night, so, why not crash with your best friend after a long day?
“Hi,” Y/N said as she walked into the living room where Steve was putting a duvet on the big couch so he could sleep there.
“Hey…” Steve looked up in surprise.
“Um…I brought you some books. I'm not trying to be your advisor I just thought it might help you.” truth be told, Y/N didn't know why she had to do this in the middle of the night, maybe she had a feeling, maybe she wasn't ready to give up.
“Thanks.” Steve said dryly.
“What am I doing?” Y/N turned around ready to leave the house feeling utterly pathetic for what felt like the tenth time that night.
“Woah hold on. Look, I gotta say something.” Steve had been thinking of what to say to her again since she left the party.
“Um…I think you've got this idea that you're this strange person that has to trick people into liking her and it's not true, you're um, you're amazing.”
Y/N was in awe, she definitely didn't expect that. She couldn't help to laugh either.
“Oh my god, you just did it to me.”
“Did what?”
“Said exactly what I was feeling. Well, except for the me being amazing part.”
Steve smiled at that. “Well, it's true and uh…honestly you know, I wish I did feel something.”
Y/N thought for a moment. This might be a huge mistake but since she was here putting herself on the line again. Why not? Her dignity was already in a questionable situation.
“Kiss me.”
Well, Steve wasn't expecting that. He looked at her trying to understand if he heard that right.
“Uh…what?”
“I think that there's something there and I think that if you kiss me, you'll feel it too.”
“Uh, I don't think that's how it works?”
“Come on, if you don't feel anything, I will never mention it again. That's the best deal you'll ever get, ask Robin. Just one kiss.”
Truth be told, Steve wasn't sure why he found this so difficult, it's not like he hasn't kissed girls just for the hell of it, but something did feel different. Deep down maybe he was scared that he would actually feel something. He didn't believe this was a thing, but you never know.
“One kiss…one kiss,” he said coming closer.
“Okay,” said Y/N leaning in.
Y/N wasn't an excellent kisser that she knew of, she had only kissed one guy before but there was something that told her that if he was the one, the kiss would be perfect either way.
So, Y/N kissed Steve. It was tender and soft, one kiss turned into two. Steve's body was frozen except for his lips. He wanted to cup her face and pull her even closer but was it because he hadn't been kissed like that in a long time? Or was he actually feeling something? That's when Y/N pulled away interrupting his thoughts. He was surprised which led to him making this shocked face.
“I'm sorry.”
Y/N felt like a ton of bricks just had hit her. What did she do? She couldn't help but look at her feet again and run away.
Steve didn't call after her, he just stood there, still frozen, processing everything that just happened since she walked in. His thoughts were racing mainly "What the fuck just happened" he decided to lie on the couch and whatever had just burst into him...he would figure out tomorrow.

hello! im looking for a similar vibe drama to fill the word of honour-shaped void in my heart ;; do you have any recs? thank u!
hi! i do have a couple recs, i am always thinking about word of honor.
a journey to love — wuxia cdrama; the main leads have similar background and kind of same dynamic, especially with the found family aspect. in the beginning the narrative reminded me of word of honor too. I loved this drama a lot but it is very sad.
laws of attraction — thai bl; charn, one of the protagonists is very similar to wen kexing. also tinncharn has some parallels with wenzhou. this drama is so silly and fun.
the blood of youth — wuxia cdrama; a lot of the woh minor cast is in this drama. i think if you liked the vibe of word of honor you'd like this one.
heroes — wuxia cdrama; i really enjoyed this drama, it is another drama that ends in tragedy too. su mengzhen & yang wuxie are another wenzhou coded pair to me.
i haven't seen them but there's legend of fei & guardian which are other priest (word of honor's novel writer) adaptations as well as a taiwanese bl unknown apparently coming out today. they might have a similar vibe bc they came from the same author.

Aim For The Heart | Chapter 32: Enough
Tumblr media
Pairing: hitman!jungkook x female reader
Genre: romance, drama, angst
WC: 9.4k
Warnings for this chapter: strong language, anxiety, loss, supporting character death, mentions of chronic illness but not specified what, mentions of past murder, unhealthy coping, some fluff, this is sad im sorry :(
summary; Jeon Jungkook is an infamous hitman, known for his inability to fail at whatever job is thrown his way. At least, up until now. Y/n, a kind-hearted and full of life teacher, is his newest target. Jeon isn’t sure who would put a hit on this seemingly innocent girl, but fortunately, that isn’t his problem. All he has to do is pull the trigger.
Previous > Next
"Jungkookie, look."
Mrs. Jeon points at the last empty space in the puzzle, the only place without a piece. 
"Oh no," The child sitting in her lap gasps quietly, "Oh no, mommy. Where is it?"
"Mm, I'm not sure," She whispers back, "Should we go on a mission to find it?"
Three-year-old Jungkook turns to smile at her, his bunny teeth on full display, "Yeah! Let's go on a secret mission."
She lifts him off her lap, then she gets onto the floor on her hands and knees. 
"What are you doing, mommy?" Jungkook asks, standing next to her. 
"I think maybe we need to be animals to find it," she says with a smile. 
Jungkook drops to the floor immediately, "Yes! I'm a lion mommy, raaawr!"
She laughs, "Uh oh, I better run."
He looks at her in confusion, "Why?"
"Because I'm a zebra! I don't want you to eat me."
Jungkook laughs and starts crawling towards her on all fours, "Raaawr, run zebra mommy, I'm going to eat you!"
Her laugh rings out across the living room as she crawls away from him, "No, no, no! Don't eat me!"
Jungkook chases her around the living room for a few minutes, laughing like crazy at her silly antics. 
Eventually he stops, "Ok, I won't eat you."
She turns and sits on the floor, looking at him, "Oh? Why not?"
"Mm, I'm not hungry!" He giggles. 
"I thought lions were always hungry," She muses. 
He shakes his head, "Not me, and I don't want to eat the mommy zebra."
"Ohhhh, I see," She stands up, "Well, you better run then."
"Why?" Jungkook looks at her with huge brown eyes. 
"Because now I'm a... tickle t-rex! Raaawr!"
Jungkook squeals with laughter as he leaps up and bolts for his bedroom, "Ahhhhh! Don't get me mommy!"
She chases him into his bedroom where he jumps on his bed and hides under the covers. 
His laughter is piercing but so beautiful to her as she tickles him until neither of them can breathe from their giggles. 
Once they've both calmed down, she pulls him into her chest and brings the covers over them. 
"Are we hiding, mommy?" Jungkook whispers under the dark stuffy blanket. 
"Yes," She whispers back. 
"What are we hiding from?"
"The aliens," She says in a silly voice, making him giggle again. 
She brushes the hair from his face and kisses his forehead, "I love you so much, my sweet Kookie."
__________________________
"W-What's going on?" You ask breathlessly as Jungkook is dragging you back through the forest to the boxcars. 
"My mom," His voice breaks as he pants, but he says nothing else. 
Your heart flies to your throat at his few words and you squeeze his hand tighter. 
It doesn't take very long until you're both crashing back into the clearing where Tae is just getting onto his motorcycle. 
He must have gone back to get it earlier. 
Taehyung nods at Jungkook as his motorcycle revs loudly, silently agreeing that he'll meet him there.
Then there's a billowing cloud of dust as Jungkook pulls you towards his own bike.
Without him needing to say a word, you hop on, holding his waist the second he sits down. 
The engine roars to life and a moment later, the trees are blurring by on all sides. 
-
"Why is she still here? Why isn't she at the hospital?" 
Tae shakes his head at Jungkook's panicked questions, "I don't know, Kook."
The three of you are running to the entrance of the place Jungkook took you before. You know it's some kind of assisted living for people that are chronically ill to the point they need constant medical assistance but don't need to stay at the hospital.
Jungkook can't get through the doors fast enough as he almost knocks over a woman carrying her child out after visiting a family member. 
"Sorry," Tae apologizes to her for Jungkook, who is just in a blind panic to get to his mother. 
"Jungkook," The woman at the front desk stands up when she sees him. 
You recognize her as the one that checked you guys in when you came to visit. 
"Jungkook, hold on," She comes around the desk as he tries to just walk to the room. 
He doesn't even acknowledge her until she grabs his arm, "Jungkook, wait."
It takes a moment for his brain to register what the older woman is saying, then he looks at her in confused betrayal before pulling his arm away and heading towards the room again. 
You and Tae look at each other before following him and the nurse. 
"Jungkook! She isn't in there!" 
That finally makes him stop, seconds before he went into the room his mother was in for years. 
He looks at the nameplate by the door to see a man's name, his mother's nowhere to be found. 
Jungkook turns in a panic, "W-Where is she? Why isn't she-"
"Listen to me, sweetheart," The kind nurse holds his shoulders to ground him, "She just moved rooms, we put her into a room where she can have more intensive care."
"Why?" His voice shakes. 
"I need you to take a deep breath and we can go back to her, okay? Everything will be explained."
You watch with an aching heart as Jungkook forces himself to take deep breaths until the nurse deems him calm enough to go back.
Tae and you follow behind silently as she tells Jungkook that he can see her for a moment, but then he will need to wait and let them finish taking care of her before going in for a longer visit.
The four of you turn down a hallway to see it lined with doors spaced further apart than the other ones you were just at. Benches and individual chairs are placed outside of each room. 
This hallway is cold...not warm and welcoming like the rooms close to the front. 
Your stomach turns when you stop outside of a room that's door is open as nurses go in and out, not frantically, but not like they are walking around casually either. 
The older nurse that brought you here turns to you and Tae and smiles kindly while gesturing to the seats outside of the room. 
Tae plops down on the bench, his hand immediately going to his mouth as he bites his nails, and his knee bouncing with anxiety. 
You sit next to him a moment later, feeling stiff and anxious yourself. 
Jungkook is the only one still standing as he walks over to the room and slowly goes inside. 
-
He sees her, lying in the white bed, one that surprisingly looks even more comfortable than her own bed in her old room. 
A floral scarf is wrapped around the top of her head. 
Her favorite scarf. 
"Mom?" He whispers, terrified that she won't answer him and terrified that she will. 
She doesn't. 
Her eyes are closed, a soft smile on her face. 
"She's sleeping," The nurse assures him, making his anxiety melt away. 
"Is she okay?" 
The nurse bites her lip as she looks at the beautiful woman lying in the bed, "She's not in any pain. She's comfortable..."
Those words make Jungkook's stomach plummet. 
No. 
No, no, no. 
He looks at the kind woman that has kept his mother alive and content all these years. 
"What do you mean?"
She shakes her head, "I-...I'm sorry, Jungkook..."
He looks back at his mother, the room blurring rapidly. 
"How long?"
"We were hoping for a few days. But I'm not so sure anymore. I'm glad Namjoon called you, we couldn't get a hold of you."
"Fuck," Jungkook's voice breaks, "I-...I thought I-...Why-"
"Hush now," His mother's nurse and dearest friend lays a hand on his arm, "You did everything you could, dear."
He shakes his head. 
"Yes, you did."
It's silent for a minute, then she sighs sadly, "I'm sorry Jungkook, but we do need to do a few things for her. Would you mind waiting out in the hall?"
He nods numbly, turning to leave. 
-
Jungkook came out of the room almost three hours ago. 
He sat on one of the chairs on the right side of the door, opposite where you and Tae still sit on the left side. 
"Are y-you sure we shouldn't t-t-talk to him?"
You whisper as quietly as you can to Tae, who shakes his head solemnly, "Not right now, ____. He checked out."
You both glance at the young man across the door from you, his gaze locked on a floor tile that's half purple and half white. He's been staring at it for hours, ever since he sat down. 
"When he checks out like this, it's best to let him be. He'll come out eventually, but if you startle him out of it, he'll go into a panic attack."
You swallow the tears threatening to come, "I wish th-there was something I could d-do to help him."
"Me too," Tae whispers. 
The nurse told Jungkook over two hours ago that he could go back in and see his mother, although she was still asleep. But he hasn't moved from that chair. 
You wonder what's making him scared to go in and be with her while he can. 
It kills you to have to do nothing but sit here and watch him suffer silently and alone. 
After another half hour has passed, you sneak a glance at Jungkook again. 
He's in the exact same position he started in, almost four hours ago. 
This can't be right, this can't be the only way for him to cope right now.
-
You get up to go to the bathroom. 
"Please t-tell me if anything ch-changes," You whisper to Tae. 
He nods, "I will."
You hurry to the bathroom and shut the door. 
The tears finally come, free to stream down your face without an audience as you crouch down and bury your face in your hands. 
You can't imagine the pain Jungkook is in right now. 
It's killing you to see him like this, and his pain is a million times worse than yours. 
It feels selfish to cry when it isn't even your mother that's dying. 
But you can't help it, seeing him in agony and knowing that that sweet lady is dying has your chest aching deeper than it ever has. 
After letting yourself cry it out for a bit, you force yourself to get off the bathroom floor and use the restroom, then wash your hands and leave. 
It feels almost like you're a robot, just going and going with automatic motions. 
When you sit back down, Tae tells you he'll be back and leaves. 
You can't stop yourself from looking back at Jungkook.
He blinks but does nothing else.
It hardly even looks like he's breathing. 
It can't keep going on like this...
"____?"
You turn to see Tae holding out a candy bar and a bottle of water.
"I got it from the vending machine in the lobby."
"Oh, th-thank you," You take it and stare at the package, reading it over and over again for the next few minutes. 
When you finally decide you can't stomach it, you slip it into the pocket of your overalls. 
But as you put it there, you feel something else in the pocket that makes you pause. You wrap your hand around whatever it is and pull it out. 
Oh...
It's four purple and blue bracelets...
You made them the day before you found out Jungkook's secret. The last time you saw him before he saved you from Kai at the school. 
You had planned on giving them to Jimin, Jungkook, and Tae. 
They were supposed to be friendship bracelets, kind of along the same line as the black and yellow ones you made for you and Jungkook. 
Those had a different meaning though...
You carefully clasp one of the bracelets onto your wrist, right next to the yellow and black one. Then you turn to Tae and hold out one of them. 
He looks at your hand to see a purple and blue bracelet sitting in your palm, made with the string you had bought when you got the stuff for Jungkook's surprise. 
So, that's what you were making with them.
Tae takes it, clasping it on his wrist and showing it to you proudly. 
You hold up yours. 
Tae gives you a small smile and a thumbs up, then goes back to eating his chips. 
You glance at Jungkook for the hundredth time, something telling you to talk to him. 
When you stand up to do so, Tae gently grabs your wrist and shakes his head. 
You lean down and whisper, "I know th-that maybe this is how J-Jungkook coped in the past. B-But I want to try."
He reluctantly lets go of you. 
-
Jungkook doesn't move a single centimeter when you approach him. 
It seems as though he doesn't even sense your presence even as you sit in the chair next to him. 
"Jungkook," You whisper. 
He blinks again but doesn't respond or acknowledge you in any way. 
Your stomach is tight with anxiety, afraid that you'll set him off into a panic attack. 
Maybe Tae is right, maybe you need to just leave him alone for now. 
But something is telling you not to, telling you to try something different. 
Maybe Jungkook coped like this because he had no other way, and of course Tae knows that if you startle him, it'll send him into a panic. Tae was young too, he didn't know what to do, he couldn't figure out another way to help him, and that's okay. They managed with what they could.
They were children that had gone through stuff no child should ever even be able to imagine.
But now, it can change. 
You've worked with some students that had trauma, you've seen and developed countless ways to cope with it. 
Hopefully your knowledge on the subject will pay off right now. 
"Jungkook, i-if you don't want to talk, give m-me a nod."
It takes a minute for him to answer, but he does, giving you the tiniest nod.
"Ok, y-you don't need to talk. If you w-want to be alone, can you g-give me another nod?"
A few moments pass but he doesn't nod. 
Ok, so he doesn't want to be alone, and he doesn't want to talk. 
"If y-you want me to not talk, you c-can give me a nod."
Another few moments pass, and you don't get a nod. 
So, he wants me to talk. 
At least you're getting somewhere, and that somewhere isn't a full-blown panic attack. 
"One m-more question, if y-you're okay with me touching you, give m-me one last nod."
A few moments pass and he doesn't move, so you assume he doesn't want to be touched. 
But then, you see him nod, his eyes welling up with tears. 
"Ok," you say gently. 
Carefully reaching a hand out, you place it on top of one of his. 
You're going to go slow, rushing things will only make it worse. 
Finally, Jungkook looks away from that tile he had been staring at for literal hours. His eyes shift just enough to look at your hand on his. 
He stares at it for a few minutes as you whisper to him about the hallway. 
All you're doing is describing different things, wondering aloud how they made that chair across from you, or who painted that art hanging on the wall and what they were thinking at the time. Wonder who made the frame?
Small things that seem insignificant and stupid in this situation, but what you're trying to do is talk and talk and carefully get him out of that numb zone. 
If you start talking about anything that will trigger an emotion, he might snap back in that zone or freak out. 
And that's the last thing you want to happen right now. 
"Mm, th-that crumb on the fl-floor is so tiny I almost c-couldn't see it. I b-bet an ant c-could carry that on h-his back easily," You muse while Jungkook just continues to stare at your touching hands. 
"I'm scared."
You almost jump at the sound of Jungkook's voice that you haven't heard in hours. 
Ah, it worked. 
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 
"I know," You whisper back, seeing his eyes fill with tears. 
You never knew how much you missed his eyes until they finally meet yours after what felt like an eternity. 
"I c-can't do it. I can't lose her, ____."
You nod, "I know, K-Kookie, I know."
"I'm scared," His voice breaks, "I thought I did enough..."
You move as close to him as you can while being in two different chairs, "I'm not g-going to tell you that y-you did enough. Because you don't n-need to hear it fr-from me."
He stares into your eyes as you continue, "You d-don't need to hear it from anyone b-but her."
You're right. 
He didn't know it until now. 
No one is going to convince him he did enough but her. 
"She w-wants to see you," You whisper, "She l-loves you."
Jungkook gulps, that word is so strange to him, even though he knows she loves him. 
She's always loved him. 
He just didn't want to admit it for a long time now, ever since he started the hits.
"Do y-you resent her for it?" You ask slowly. 
Jungkook thinks hard for a minute. 
He never ever wanted to even entertain the thought that he blamed her for getting him into this life. 
But now you're making him think it through and confront it for the first time. 
Does he?
It takes him a good minute to figure it out, but then he finally shakes his head, "No, I don't. I don't blame her, and I don't resent her. She had nothing to do with it. It was never her fault she got sick and that I made the decision to kill people to save her."
It seems almost like a weight is physically lifted from his shoulders; you can see it. 
He finally faced it, and he finally figured it out and accepted it. 
Now he needs to face her. 
Jungkook swallows thickly, "I should go see her, shouldn't I?"
"You c-can go see her," You change his wording, which makes it feel less daunting to him. 
He nods, but still doesn't move. 
You reach into your pocket and pull out one of the last two bracelets, putting it on his wrist next to the yellow and black one, just like yours, "T-Tae and I are here f-for you," You say gently, "No m-matter what."
Jungkook squeezes your hand, finally getting the courage he needed to go to her. 
"Thank you," He whispers.
_______________________
His eyes lock on her the second he comes through the door. 
She's still asleep. 
Jungkook walks soundlessly over to her bed and sits on the chair beside it, then he takes her cold hand in his. 
His thumb rubs absentmindedly over her delicate skin, wanting nothing more than to protect her forever. 
Looking down at their hands, his brain swarms with regret.
"Oh my, what did I do to deserve such a handsome boy coming to visit me?"
Jungkook looks up to see her smiling at him, her eyes squinted as she adjusts to the light. 
"Mom," His voice breaks. 
"I'm okay," She whispers, "I'm okay."
He feels a single tear slip down his cheek and he wipes it away, embarrassed.
"Ohh," She chides him sweetly, "It's okay to cry, you'll still be a man."
He chuckles tearfully. 
"I missed you," Her voice is weak, and it breaks his heart even more. 
"I missed you too, so much," He responds softly, bringing her hand to his mouth to kiss it gently. 
Her smile widens and brightens up the whole room, "My goodness, you are so handsome."
Tears are threatening to choke him as she reaches a hand up to touch his face, "I always wondered what my bunny boy would grow up to look like. I'm so happy I got to see that you look like me."
"Mom," He coughs tearfully, "Mom, I'm sorry-"
"No," She whispers with a weak smile, "My sweet boy, no. You worked so hard."
There is no stopping the tears now streaming down his face with no restraint. 
"If I just-"
"Listen to me," She speaks as softly as she always has. 
Not once had she ever raised her voice at him, only ever being as gentle as his father was rough. 
If only he appreciated it more. 
If only he showed her how much he cherished her. 
"You worked so hard and suffered so much. You did enough," Her voice breaks slightly with the tears now coming to her. 
She knows that's what he needs to hear.
Jungkook shakes his head, "I should've come to you more often, I shouldn't have left you alone for so long. I-"
"I know everything, Kookie."
His face falls when he sees her knowing look. 
"Namjoon told me," She whispers. 
Fuck. 
She wasn't supposed to know. 
She was never supposed to know. 
"What?" His voice shakes. 
"It's okay, I asked him to tell me where you got the money. I knew you wouldn't be able to cover my treatments with a regular job. I'm sorry, Jungkook-"
"No," He assures her gently, holding her hand for dear life as he moves closer and cups her pale cheek, "No, no, no. It's okay, I'm okay, I really am. It was my decision, I swear. It isn't your fault, mom, please- don't think like that."
She nods, but the tears still trickle down her face. 
Just then a nurse comes in and Jungkook realizes that the machines by his mother's bed started making some noise. 
He hadn't noticed.
His mother smiles at the nurse and nods, "It's okay, I'm okay." 
The nurse understands immediately, quieting the machines and leaving to fetch someone else. 
Jungkook looks at her in a panic, "What's going on?"
"Is anyone else here?" She asks sweetly, ignoring his question. 
He nods, "Tae and ____ are here, they're outside."
"Oh, tell them to come in, Kookie please? I want to see them."
Jungkook hurries to the door and frantically tells you two to get inside. 
You do, and you see her smiling the second you walk in. 
Goodness, she is so beautiful even when she's so sick. 
"Oh, Taehyung."
Tae doesn't even hold back his tears the moment he lays eyes on her. 
He practically runs to the right side of her bed and engulfs her gently in his arms, "I missed you," He mumbles into her shoulder. 
She laughs lightly, "I missed you too, you little rascal."
Jungkook is on her left side, holding her hand gently as Tae pulls away, tears falling endlessly. 
"Thank you, Tae," She whispers, "For everything."
He nods. 
"I love you," She nudges his shoulder, "People love you Tae, you need to let them."
You see Tae bite his lip harshly at her words. 
"Don't you dare even think about missing out on a family, I'll haunt you."
He nods tearfully, "Yes ma'am. I love you too."
She smiles at him, giving his hand a good squeeze. 
Then her gaze lands on you and she holds her arms out. 
You walk over timidly, not quite sure if you belong here right now. 
That worry evaporates when she pulls you into her arms, "Oh my sweet girl," She whispers, "I don't even know how to thank you."
You fight back tears, to no avail, "You d-don't need to thank me."
She nods, "I'm just so grateful that you are part of the family now. I couldn't ask for anyone better."
You wipe at your eyes, but the deluge is nonstop. 
You hug her again and whisper in her ear, only for her to hear. 
"You are the m-most amazing mother to ever exist, thank y-you for bringing him into this w-world. I pro-promise I will love him f-forever."
In that moment, you unknowingly released her from the only thing holding her back. 
Now, she can finally rest, knowing that her most beloved will be taken care of. 
When you pull away, you see nothing but pure joy reflecting in her eyes. 
She puts a hand on your cheek, "Thank you."
You nod and pat her hand gently before pulling away so she can talk to Jungkook. 
The older nurse from earlier walks in and sees the four of you and her eyes well up. 
"Oh, Mi-Young."
She walks over to the bed as Mrs. Jeon reaches out a hand to take her friend's, "I'm alright, Mira."
Mira nods, understanding even though she doesn't want to, "I know."
A moment later, Mira turns to the three of you and nods. 
She then bends down and kisses Mrs. Jeon's cheek, "I'll see you again," She whispers before moving away. 
You and Tae back up with the nurse as Jungkook takes her hand in both of his, "Please don't go," He whispers brokenly, "Please don't. I'm sorry..."
She smiles sadly, "Don't cry for me, love. I'm alright, really. I'm okay. I've done what I needed to do, it's my turn to go home now, I'm ready."
Jungkook chokes on his tears, "I don't want you to go."
"Oh, let me go," She rubs his cheek with her thumb, "Let me go, let me be free."
Jungkook's bottom lip quivers as tears continue to pour, "You're not supposed to go yet, you're supposed to stay with me. I can't do it alone."
"You're not alone," She reminds him, "You've got Taehyung, and ____. And I'll always be watching over you, I promise."
He shakes his head, he's not ready to let go. 
He didn't kill people just for her to die like this. 
He didn't work so hard just to lose her. 
She's supposed to be with him until she dies of old age, not this, not because of this. 
She's still so young. 
It wasn't supposed to happen like this. 
She was supposed to be at his wedding if ever he had one. 
She was supposed to be the grandmother of his children if ever he had them. 
She was supposed to come to his house for holidays if she didn't already live with him. 
They were supposed to be together for a long time. 
He needed to make up for the time he lost with her. 
He can't let go. 
"I wanted you to get older with me, you promised me," Jungkook whispers, his voice thick with grief. 
She was so young when she had him, she was supposed to be around for a long time. 
"I'm sorry, Koo..."
"I'll- I'll take you to all the ballet performances you wanted to see, I promise."
Tears cascade down her face at his desperate bargaining not to lose her. 
"I promise I- I won't leave you alone anymore-"
She shakes her head, "I wasn't alone, don't think like that."
Jungkook chokes on his sobs, "Please, please don't leave me. Please, please-"
"Hey," She coos softly, cupping his face. 
You can see her fading as Jungkook's panic rises. 
"You can stop now," She whispers for only him to hear. 
He knows exactly what she means. 
He was never going to stop killing as long as it kept her alive. 
No matter what he lost in the process. 
She's giving him permission to stop now. 
It hurt her so much to know what he had done to save her, but she never thought of him any differently.
She's letting go and telling him too as well. 
"No," He whimpers, "No, please. It's okay, I can do it, I don't mind-"
"I do," She cries softly, "I want you to stop. Please say you'll stop, Koo."
Jungkook nods, his tears never ceasing. 
"Ok," He chokes out. 
"Promise me."
“Promise me you’ll clean up your toys, Koo?” 
Jungkook nods and she smiles, “Once you’re done, we can get ice cream.”
“Yes, ice cream!” His lisp makes her smile wider as she crouches down to his level and holds out her hand. 
He links his pinky with hers, just like they always do. 
She leans down and kisses her fist as he kisses his, their pinkies still entwined, sealing the deal. 
"I promise," Jungkook whispers as he gently links his pinky with hers and brings his lips to his fist, sealing his last promise, "I promise, I'll stop. I'll let go."
She smiles once more, "I love you."
"I love you," He kisses her fingers that are still wrapped around his. 
A moment of silence passes as you see her look towards the ceiling, a smile on her face as if she's seeing something beyond beautiful, then her eyes flutter before closing.
Your face is drenched in tears and they aren't stopping anytime soon, a hand clasped over your mouth to keep your cries muted.  
Jungkook's hunched over body is shaking with silent sobs as he lowers his head to lay in her lap.
The nurse, Mira, appears to be wiping at her eyes before promptly leaving the room. 
It feels almost like the very sun has started to dim the moment Mi-Young passed away. 
The room feels cold and empty.
Tae is turned away, facing the corner. His face is stuffed into his hands as his shoulders shake with the tears he's trying so hard to make sure aren't heard. 
You don't even know what to do right now. 
All you can do is lean your back against the wall and keep your hands pressed to your mouth, salty tears dripping over your fingers. 
Everything they did was to save her. 
Now she's gone. 
The pain in your heart is so intense, you can't even begin to imagine what they are feeling right now. 
What Jungkook is feeling. 
A few minutes pass, no one saying a word or even moving a muscle. 
You see Jungkook very very gently rubbing his thumb on the back of his mother's hand, his head still in her lap. 
Suddenly, you feel someone touch your arm. 
Tae holds your elbow gently and nods toward the door. 
You leave with him, closing the door behind you two to let Jungkook be alone for as long as he needs. 
-
"I'm sorry, mom," Jungkook whispers, "I'm so sorry..."
He's no longer sobbing, but tears continue to fall silently, dripping over the bridge of his nose and into her lap. 
Jungkook curls in closer to her, resting his head against her abdomen like he used to when he was a small child, and something scared him or made him cry. The comfort of her soft lap and beautiful voice would always calm him quickly, no matter what happened.
He breathes out shakily, taking her hand and laying it on his cheek, closing his eyes and trying his best to conjure up a memory of her voice singing his special song. 
But he can't. 
Panic starts to set in when he realizes he can't remember. 
He can't remember. 
-
Almost an hour has passed since Mi-Young passed away. 
The nurse, Mira, comes back down the hall.
She sees you and Taehyung sitting outside of the room, both of your eyes rimmed with red as you stare straight ahead. 
Neither of you has dry cheeks, a few random tears spilling once in a while. 
But when Tae notices her standing there, he wipes his eyes and stands up. 
"Please don't make him leave," He whispers hoarsely. 
Mira swallows the lump in her throat, "Mi-Young asked me not to let him be with her too long after she passed. She said it would be harder for him the longer he got to spend with her."
Tae hesitates, then he nods slowly and steps away from the door. 
Mira walks into the room to see Jungkook sleeping beside his mother, curled into her side. 
He's so much larger than the small woman, but at this moment, he looks like a tiny child that snuck into his mother's bed in the middle of the night. 
Her heart breaks at the sight. 
She hates that she needs to wake him.
But Mi-Young asked this of her, it was her last request. 
And she must honor that.
-
When you see Jungkook walk out of the room, your heart cracks a little more. 
His eyes are red, and he looks a little disoriented. 
At first, you think he's going to walk past you and Tae, ignoring the two of you like he always does when he's upset. 
So, you're both taken by surprise when he walks right over to Tae.
The oldest holds his arm out and takes Jungkook into them. 
Jungkook doesn't hug him back, he doesn't have the strength to. He just lets Tae hold him, keeping his face stuffed into his best friend's chest as his arms hang limply. 
The look on Taehyung's face makes you wipe your eyes again. 
You've never seen either of them so broken. 
"She's free now, Jungkook," Tae whispers, "She's not in pain anymore."
Jungkook nods, keeping his face hidden.
"Do you remember how she used to talk about heaven, Jungkook?" Tae keeps the tears back as best as he can. 
Jungkook nods again. 
The elder squeezes him tighter, "She's the lucky one, Kook. She's in heaven now with the angels she used to tell us stories about. We're the ones that should be cried for," His broken laughter is brief, "We're stuck in this shithole. But she will never feel pain or sadness ever again. And she gets to watch us with my grandparents until we go with them."
It seems like Tae's words are the only thing that make Jungkook feel better, even if it's slight. 
You look at the two of them, pain squeezing your heart. 
They lost everything. 
Taehyung lost his grandparents a long time ago and Jungkook held on to his mother for so long only to lose her too. 
It was always them against this cruel world. 
You wipe your eyes again, holding your arms across your chest in a hug. 
"____."
You look up at Tae calling you. 
He's holding one of his arms out, telling you to join the hug. 
You shake your head a little. 
You don't belong in this moment. 
He just nods and waves you over again, so you walk over slowly. 
Tae grabs your sleeve and yanks you into the hug. 
You feel Jungkook wrap an arm around your waist and hold you tight as Tae's arm goes over your shoulders. 
"We're not the only ones who lost someone," Tae whispers into your ear, bringing tears to your eyes again. 
You feel both of them hug you tighter, keeping you warm and safe. You're not quite as big as them, but you hope they feel just as comforted by your hug. 
____________________
"Jungkook, I have something for you."
The three of you look up from where you're sitting on the sidewalk just outside of the building where Jungkook's mother stayed. The sun warming the sidewalk was actually helpful, as Tae said it would be. 
It's like a warm hug and a breath of fresh air at the same time. 
Mira is standing there with a white envelope in one hand and a tiny black box in the other. 
She crouches down in front of Jungkook, who still looks like a mess. 
"I knew your mother for almost twenty years, she was my best friend. She was so young; she was only a little younger than you when she first came to us...Mi-Young always told me stories about you and I remember being so excited when I first got to meet her most beloved boy."
Jungkook listens with rapt attention, not wanting to miss a single detail. 
"She loved you more than I have ever seen a human love another. Not a single day went by that she didn't tell me how much she loved you and wished you happiness beyond imagination. She lived a life full of happiness and love, don't let yourself believe anything else."
He swallows thickly, tears springing to his eyes once more. 
"She really was relieved to go, although she felt sorry," Mira clears her throat, "Your mother will be watching over all of us, never forget that."
Jungkook nods, wiping at his eyes for the millionth time. 
Mira grabs his hand and puts the envelope and box in it, then she wraps him in a brief hug, "I'll always be here for you, if ever you need me."
"Thank you," He whispers as she stands up and makes her way back inside. 
You and Tae sit quietly on either side of him as Jungkook stares at the envelope in his hand. 
"I'm scared to open it," Jungkook finally whispers after a while. 
"It's alright," Tae says, patting him on the shoulder, "You don't have to open it now."
The younger nods, "Ok," he says in a small voice.
Silence washes over you three again until Jungkook clears his throat, "Where are we going?"
"What do you mean?" Tae asks gently. 
"Where are we going to stay now?" Jungkook asks again, his face seemingly emotionless. 
"Oh...we could stay at a hotel?" Tae suggests. 
You and Tae agree that that would probably be safest, especially because Dae is still out there. 
Jungkook says nothing though. 
He didn't tell you two about Seokjin and Yoongi and how he promised them he would come back after he saved you. 
Was that really just yesterday?
It feels like forever ago.
"Jungkook?"
"Huh?" He starts at someone calling his name. 
"We were wondering if you were okay with a hotel," Tae says slowly. 
He nods, "A hotel sounds fine to me."
You and Tae give each other a concerned look.
Jungkook has a habit of snapping out of stuff quickly and then tumbling headfirst back down into it when people think he's okay.
Standing up and brushing off his pants, Jungkook stuffs the envelope and small box into his pocket, "Let's just get out of here."
After deciding where to go, you follow Jungkook to his motorcycle as Tae goes to his. 
"See you soon," Tae says before slipping his helmet on and starting the engine. 
You hold onto Jungkook as he starts up his own engine.
He's in a lot of pain, you can tell.
Years of pushing feelings down and corking them up like a bottle ready to explode is not going to take a short time to heal. 
He's dealt with pain by shutting it down for his entire life. 
His brain developed with those coping skills; it isn't going to fix things so quickly. 
That realization causes you more physical hurt than any bruises can. 
You're going to try your best to help him. 
He's just so broken.
___________________________
"Room for three?"
The worker at the front desk of the really nice hotel you came to gives you guys a funny look as he confirms what Tae asked for. 
Taehyung nods politely, "Yes, please."
"And how long will you be staying with us?" The worker asks slowly, looking over the three of you once more. 
You know you look like a mess. 
All of you are sweaty and tired with red eyes and tear-stained faces. 
You have no bags, nothing. 
It doesn't look like the three of you could afford a decent meal let alone a room in this place. 
Tae looks back at you and Jungkook, who both shrug. 
He turns back to the young man who continues to stare rudely.
"Um, can we please do it for three days?"
"Of course," The worker seems to finally act more normal the second he sees Tae pull out a card and hand it over. 
Tae gets his card back and two room keys, then he bows slightly, "Thank you."
You follow the boys to the elevator, glancing behind you to see the worker staring at you. 
"Don't worry about him, ____," Tae says as he gets into the elevator behind you and presses the button for the tenth floor, "He's just a jackass."
Jungkook leans back against the railing in the middle of the elevator, his face clearly depicting how exhausted he is. 
"Damn, this elevator music sucks," Tae groans, a shoulder leaning against the side wall by the buttons. 
You're standing in between them, hands clasped in front of you as you anxiously tap your toes.
"Finally," Tae sighs as the doors open after a while. 
But then you realize it's only the sixth floor and a family of four is standing there, waiting to get on. 
They crowd in, much to Taehyung's annoyance. 
The elevator wasn't very roomie with just the three of you, now it's even worse. 
Jungkook just stares at the floor numbly, not moving from his spot. 
The mother and father come in first, standing on the far-left side. 
The daughter who appears to be around ten comes in next. 
You smile at her, and she just sticks her tongue out. 
The last one to get on is the son, who looks to be in his late teens if not early twenties. 
He walks in and knocks your shoulder roughly, making you stumble. 
A hand on your waist keeps you from losing your balance and you turn to see Jungkook glaring at the young man. He pulls you into him as he moves to the far-right corner behind Tae. Your back is pressed into his chest, his arms wrapped around your abdomen protectively. 
When you glance down at his hands, you see him take one of yours and gently rub the back of it with his thumb as he rests his chin on your shoulder. 
Just before the elevator doors close, someone grabs it, and it opens to reveal an older businessman. 
He shoves his way in. 
"A whole ass party, lovely," Tae mumbles, "What floors?" He asks, voice tinged with irritation. 
"Twelve," The father of the family says. 
You remember the worker saying the pool was on that level.
"Eleven," The businessman snaps. 
Ah, and the conference rooms were on eleven.
Tae presses the buttons, and the doors start to close again, but not before another hand grabs them and opens them. 
"Oh, for the love of God," Tae grumbles when a couple comes into view, "There's no room!"
"Ah, there's plenty of room," The boyfriend says as he pulls his girlfriend on and they squeeze in, "Twelve, please."
"Already on the way," Tae says shortly, "Not like there are any other elevators right next to this one," He keeps muttering to himself as the doors start to close again. 
After the couple got on, it pushed people further into you, which is starting to make you feel squished. 
Jungkook feels your breath pick up as you get anxious with the businessman pressed almost right into you. 
You feel his arms hold you tighter for a moment as he maneuvers you, turning the two of you so that you're in the corner and he's closer to the old man. 
He just switched your places, but it makes your heart pound harder at the gesture. 
And now that Jungkook is facing you, his arms on either side of you, you feel a blush creep into your cheeks. 
He gives you a small, tired smile and tucks a strand of hair behind your ear. 
It doesn't seem like he's even affected by the people pressing against his back, his eyes just trained on you. 
"Praise be to God," Tae clasps his hands as the doors close and the elevator starts to move. 
It jiggles for a second, making your heart leap to your throat. 
You hate when elevators are sketchy. 
One of your worst fears is an elevator breaking while you're in it. 
Apparently, it's one of Taehyung's too, because you see him put a hand over his eyes, "If this elevator breaks and we die, I'm gonna kill all of you."
The young man in the family that pushed you snickers. 
Jungkook sees you stiffen at the jolt when the elevator picks up speed. 
"You're alright," He whispers, "If this elevator broke, you'd be with the perfect two people in that case." 
You laugh nervously, knowing that he's right. 
If you were to get trapped in an elevator, he and Tae would be the best to get stuck with. They'd find a way out quicker than any rescue team. 
That calms you down considerably. 
*bing*
The number 10 lights up on the top of the doorway and you hear Tae sigh in relief as the doors open. 
"That'll be us," Tae says as he shoves past the couple, "Pardon."
The others move a little, but Jungkook still needs to shoulder through them to get you out. 
The doors close again when the three of you are free at last. 
"Fucking damn," Tae shakes his head, "Never in my life."
He stares at the elevator for a second before shaking his head again and walking away. 
You and Jungkook follow closely behind, his hand holding yours securely. 
Tae turns to the right and walks to the end of the hall, all the way to the last door, "Couldn't have been a more perfect spot," he says in satisfaction as he unlocks it and pushes it open. 
The room is extremely nice, something you would never be able to afford for even a single night. 
The setting sun shines through the window in a golden hue, falling over the room. 
There's a huge TV mounted on the wall in front of two decent sized beds. A couch is lined along the wall under the huge window, a gorgeous view of Busan greeting you when you walk over to it after slipping your shoes off at the door. 
There's a mini fridge and plenty of drawers and desk space to put things. 
"Holy shit!" 
You look over to where Tae is coming out of the bathroom, "The bath is bigger than your apartment, JK."
Jungkook rolls his eyes and sits down on the couch with a heavy sigh. 
"Tae, h-how could you af-afford this?" You ask, eyes wide as you walk into the bathroom, which is as beautiful as Tae said. 
He smirks as he sits on the couch next to Jungkook, "Being a hitman has its perks, babe."
Then he pats Jungkook's thigh, "We'll be okay here, Kook."
The younger nods, "I know."
You and Tae know Jungkook will continue to mourn his mother when he's ready. That isn't when you think is best, but Jungkook isn't going to listen to either of you. 
The only comfort he has right now is knowing she's in a better place. 
"Well, I'm starved."
You can tell Tae is trying to lighten the mood, which is difficult after what's happened today. But when you see the look on Jungkook's face, you can tell he's grateful. 
You're not sure how they're able to bounce back so easily after stuff, it must be the way they grew up. 
Jungkook still seems off though, no matter how much he tries to pretend like he's not going to cry anymore. 
Taehyung orders room service as Jungkook lays on one of the beds, resting his eyes, at least that's what he says. 
While waiting for the food, you and Tae watch some TV, but neither of you are really paying attention, you're just lost in your own little worlds.  
Everything seems so wrong. 
Jungkook lost the person he loved the most in this world. It feels like this is the last place you should be. 
-
None of you eat very much of the food when it comes. 
The food looks wonderful and not a single one of you has had a decent meal in days, but you don't have an appetite. 
Jungkook picks at the food a bit before saying he's just going to go to bed. 
You and Tae eat a few bites before putting the rest of it in the mini fridge and heading to bed as well. 
Taehyung goes to the left bed and climbs in, tucking himself under the covers and going silent. 
You can tell by the slight shaking of his shoulders a few minutes later when you come out of the bathroom, that he's crying again. 
About to get on the couch to sleep, you're startled by a pair of arms wrapping around your waist. 
"You're not going to sleep with me?" Jungkook asks quietly. 
"I th-thought you were asleep," You whisper back, glancing over to see that Tae is out like a light. 
"I can't sleep," Jungkook mumbles into your shoulder, "Please lay with me."
You nod, turning in his arms to face him, "Ok."
He takes your hand and leads you over to the empty bed closer to the bathroom, the light of the moon lighting your way. 
You get out of your overalls, in nothing but your shirt and socks before climbing into the bed. 
Jungkook climbs in after you, laying his head on the pillow with a quiet sigh. 
"I don't want to talk about today," Jungkook whispers before you even say anything. 
You nod, "Ok."
"I just want to sleep," His voice cracks slightly, but he recovers quickly, "I'm tired."
You slide down into the covers more until your chin is at the top of them, nothing but your face sticking out. 
Jungkook reaches out a hand and smooths it down your hair, "Goodnight, ____."
"N-Night, Kook."
_____________
Almost two hours later, Jungkook is still awake. 
He watched you fall asleep, hoping it might help him to fall into his own dreamland, one where she is happy and healthy and there with him. 
But sleep won't even come to his rescue now. 
Jungkook sighs and runs a finger down the bridge of your nose, the soft touch of your skin bringing him a small comfort. 
He smiles softly at your sleeping face, "You're so beautiful," he whispers, knowing you'll never hear him.
Your little mouth is open slightly but you're breathing in and out through your nose. He isn't sure why it's so cute, but it is. 
To think he was so ready to kill you all those months ago...
How was he ever unable to see your beautiful soul?
He used to stay up at night trying to figure out how to get rid of the girl that acted like there wasn't a single worry in the world, now he can't imagine his life without you. 
"Sweet girl," he mumbles, tracing your lips with his thumb. 
Jungkook leans over as carefully as he can, placing his lips on yours so gently that you don't even stir. 
Then he pulls away and carefully climbs out of the bed. 
He walks over to the desk by the window and grabs the box and envelope from his mother, then he goes out into the hall after grabbing one of the key cards. 
A short walk down the hall leads him to a sitting area with big couches and side tables. 
He sits down on the red couch, looking around for a moment. 
It's really late and there isn't a single soul around. 
After another minute, Jungkook finally looks down at the white envelope before opening it carefully. 
It feels extremely fragile and he's as gentle with it as he can be as he pulls out the handwritten letter to see his mother’s distinct handwriting. 
Dear Jungkook, 
If you're reading this letter, that means I must not be with you anymore. I'm so sorry, my sweet boy. I wanted to be with you for a long time. 
I found out today that I am very sick. I haven't told you yet, but the doctors are not very hopeful. I pray that I will be able to see my sweetest boy grow up to be a strong and handsome man. 
I can't tell you enough how sorry I am that I have nothing to leave you but what is in the box. It is something that is very special to me. 
Once upon a time, Kookie, I met a very kind young man. He was tall and handsome and always knew how to make me laugh. We were only eighteen at the time and I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with him. 
It turns out that I was wrong, but I know now that I wouldn't change it for the world. 
I ended up with a different man, and I had the most beautiful baby boy. I wouldn't trade him for all the riches in this world. He is my dream come true and all I want in this life. It isn't fair that I might not have as much time with you as I had hoped. Sometimes life isn't fair, baby, but it will all be okay, I promise.
I love you more than words can ever tell. 
Every morning, your sweet face is the first thing I think of and the last thought in my mind until I fall asleep at night. 
Thank you Jungkookie, for coming to me. You are the most precious gift God has given me and I will continue to thank him for the rest of my life and more. I think that maybe my mother sent you to me from heaven when she passed away. 
You are my best buddy in this whole world and I pray every day that you will find someone like I did when I was younger. My first love gave me what I am now giving to you. Make sure you give it to someone that holds your heart the way he held mine. 
One day, you will find that person. I promise. 
Oh, and Kookie? Please tell Taehyung I said hello and that I love him and that I am so grateful he is in our lives. I hope the two of you will grow up to be best friends forever. I really believe you will. 
I think I hear you calling me. You must have woken up from your nap. I love you sweet boy, please forgive me for going first. I promise I will save your spot in heaven right next to mine!
Remember, only give this precious gift to the person you fall in love with. It has magical powers and you will be together forever if you give it to them! Don't laugh and just believe me, okay?
You'll be okay, Koo.
You were always enough for me and I will always love you,
Mommy
"Mommy?"
"I'm coming, love!" Mi-Young carefully folds the letter and tucks it into the white envelope next to her before licking the seal and closing it. Then she tucks it into a shoe box, setting the tiny black box on top of the note before closing the lid and hiding the shoe box under her bed. 
"Mommyy," Jungkook cries, coming into the room as he rubs his teary eyes. 
"Oh baby," Mi-Young picks up the five-year-old and cuddles him close, "Mommy is sorry she didn't come quickly."
Jungkook tucks his face into the juncture between her neck and shoulder, breathing shakily, "I was scared mommy," he hiccups, "I woked up and you were not there."
"Mommy is right here, baby," She coos, "I'll always be right here."
A teardrop lands on the paper as Jungkook reads it again, then again. 
He hadn’t known she had gotten sick that early on. 
His fingers grip the paper tightly as he rereads it for the fifth time. 
She was in love with someone else before she met his father.
He never knew that. 
Of course, she wouldn't have told him when he was a child. 
Jungkook swallows thickly, a few more tears falling onto the letter before he folds it back up and tucks it into his pocket.
He never realized how much she truly loved him, how selfless she really was. 
He stares at the black box sitting on the table in front of him. 
Part of him wants to know what it is, another part of him is terrified to know. 
Jungkook finally reaches over and grabs it, holding it tightly for a second before opening it. 
Inside, is a small ring. 
His mother always had small hands but seeing the ring that used to fit on her finger brings tears to his eyes that he wasn't expecting seeing how small it is compared to his own now. 
The ring is simple, but beautiful. 
It is a rose gold color with the tiniest, most delicate leaves wrapping around all of it and three very small diamonds in the middle. 
He proposed to her...
She was really going to marry him...
Jungkook wonders what happened to them as he stares at the ring. 
He knows his mother doesn't regret anything though, she wouldn't have had him if things hadn't changed. She said as much in her letter. 
Gently taking the ring out, Jungkook looks at it. He notices it's on a chain as he pulls it out more.
It's definitely something his mother loved dearly; it’s in pristine condition after probably close to thirty years since it was made.
He slips the chain around his neck, making sure it's hidden in his shirt before closing the box and putting it into his pocket.

Hello! Can I request a Seokjin drabble paired with prompt 1? TY!
1- "we're not just friends, and you fucking know it" x Seokjin
(thank you for requesting! Hope you enjoy it! -Nini)
Seokjin x reader
warnings- angst, swearing, drama, one sided love
wc-
ask for a prompt here
"you know, you don't need to lie to me, if you like her just tell me" you mumbled, pacing the sidewalk in front of your apartment as you closed your coat tighter against you body, shielding yourself from the cold.
Seokjin sat on the steps in front of you, a cigarette hanging from his mouth as his eyes watched you walk back and forth. "im not lying...and stop pacing you are making me nuts"
You scoffed, "oh you wanna talk about making someone nuts"
"are you implying that I make you crazy?" He teasingly raised a brow, smirking
"oh god shut uppp" you whined, stepping in front of him. "I know you like alyssa" you leaned forward
"Y/N, I told you I dont-"
"its cute, as your friend I support you, go get em tiger" you slapped his shoulder, making him yelp.
"ah, stop hitting me, aish..."
"come on, shes really pretty and you are handsome, why wont you just call her back?" you sat on the step next to him, taking his cigarette and putting it out, you hated when he smoked.
"why are you so insistent on this? are you getting paid?"
You giggled, "no, I just...want you to be happy. I haven't seen you genuinely happy in a while, and when you met her at the party You guys seemed to have a lot of chemistry" you picked at the skin by your nails, side glancing to him.
"listen she is a nice girl...but I have no interest in dating her, never have and don't plan to lead her on" he shrugged, pulling your hand away from your picking silently.
You sighed and rested your head against the palm of your hand
"if you are cold just go in" he said calmly, now no longer feeling the conversation
"but its nice fresh air, plus you would be alone" you moved to rest your head against his shoulder, making him freeze before moving you off.
"hey" you pouted,
he looked back at you before standing up and turning to into the apartment, making you watch in confusion before following him.
you met him standing in the kitchen, "whats wrong?" you asked
"nothing, im probably gonna go to bed, goodnight, y/n" he spoke, moving forward to look at you for a few seconds, you frowned and moved to press a small kiss to his cheek, "okay, goodn-"
"dont do that" he looked back at you, pulling away
"what?" you raised your eyebrows, stepping away. You always were touchy with each other, it was the type of friends you were, why was he rejecting you?
He looked down and turned to walk to his room, "I dont get you, y/n"
"Jin you are making so sense, did I say or do something to upset you?"
He sighed and stopped in his tracks, turning to walk back to you, "yes, you did"
"oh" you frowned, "im sorry,..."
He just looked at you from across the dark room, your sad eyes watching him in full confusion. He knows how odd his behavior seems right now, and he curses himself for quite literally sucking at expressing himself properly.
"what did I do?" you cross your arms and speak softly
"how can you stand there and act clueless?"
You remained silent, unsure of what was going on, afraid to upset him more.
"why? why are you-" he sighed and leaned against the back of the couch, facing the wall instead of you as he spoke. "why are you pretending you dont know?
"know what?"
"you tried to set me up with some girl I dont know, then you continue to do those little things you do" he sighed again
"what are you talking about?"
"the kisses, the hugs, the sharing of clothes, you are wearing my jacket right now!" he turned and gestured at the article of clothing.
You looked back at him and walked closer, stepping in front of him, "what is the point of this conversation? you are acting off" you gently cupped his face
"you are doing it right now" he mentioned, his hand pressing against yours, whispering, "tell me you dont see it? tell me you are completely unaware of what im talking about..."
"Seokjin, I jus-"
"god, y/n" he stood up and paced a bit, "you dont feel it?"
"feel what??" you were beginning to grow angry, his behavior becoming erratic
He grabbed your hands and held them. "this. us."
You looked into his eyes for a few seconds before understanding what he was trying to say, "jin..." you shook your head and tried to pull away. "You are my friend, I love you, Im always here for you, but this? us? its...its platonic" you tried to calmly whisper as you saw the tears forming in his eyes.
Youve known this man for 10 years and youve never seen him cry.
"dont say that" he shook his head, in denial.
"you cant-"
"no! no...we're not just friends....and you fucking know it"
You took a deep breath, "go to bed, jin, you need to sleep."
"dont brush me off like this, you know how long ive tried to keep it to myself? You know how long ive waited?"
"im sorry...." you clutch your forehead, "but you cant just dump this on someone and expect them to feel the same way"
"you are hurting me" he looked down and harshly wiped the tear that escaped his eye, he was embarrassed to cry in front of you. "you dont remember?"
"remember what?"
"when we were going to bed last night? and you told me that you loved me more than anyone else, you said you would always be that person for me?"
You nod
"did you mean any of that? im just a man, Y/N, I cant handle these stupid emotions and you trying to shut them down isnt going to do anything" he huffed
"of course I meant it, and they arent stupid, you are valid and allowed to feel that way-however, it seems maybe you took those things I said the wrong way?"
He scoffed and glared at you
"You are my favorite person, I mean that, but us together makes no sense, I cant be that person for you, im sorry"
"I will never love anyone ever unless its you" he spoke as you turned to walk to your bedroom.
"jin."
"im serious."
"jin theres people out there who love you, love you so much and are waiting for you to love them back, dont.....dont waste time on something that will never happen."
He remained silent, shaking his head in disapproval "I want you"
"im sorry" you whispered, "you need to sleep, you are upset and exhausted"
"you broke my heart"
"you will regret acting like this in the morning" you sighed, defeated and sad.
He frowned before getting up, you stopped him before he could speak, "go rest- I dont like the way you are acting right now, im sorry I cant make you happy, but dont blame me for being honest" you whisper before shutting the door, feeling your own tears begin to fall.
You couldnt love him....You waited for him for years yourself, and now that you feel confident in life and who you are, now he wants you?
You would never let yourself backtrack on your words like that, not after you spent months silently getting over him. Its not fair that you loved him, and its not fair that he began to notice too late.

Tumblr media
tears stung your eyes as you lay curled up in a ball on your bed, clutching a worn stuffed animal to your chest. the bear had been gifted to you by your mother when you were seven, and you'd never had the heart to give it away. 
it was times like these, when your heart felt that it would shatter into a million fragments, that you were grateful for the stuffed bear's presence. 
your body shook with sobs as images of wonwoo's gorgeous smile flashed across your mind. the memory of his gentle touches and kisses were burned into your skin like a brand. 
and if you closed your eyes, you could still see him standing in your small kitchen, raven hair mussed, sweatpants low on his hips, humming softly to himself as he made breakfast, see the utter fondness and adoration in his eyes whenever he looked at you, cleaving your heart in two, never to be fixed or made whole again. 
loving wonwoo was as easy as breathing, and you had bared yourself to him, heart and soul. he was gentle, kind, and loved with all his heart. wonwoo wasn't an overly affectionate person, but he showed his love in other ways: through quality time and acts of service. 
he would always sit next to you on the spacious living room couch, nose buried in a thick paperback, glasses sliding down his nose, while you watched your favorite drama, happily munching on snacks. 
wonwoo wouldn't say anything, and yet, those were the times with him that you had treasured the most. sometimes, the nights would end with you falling asleep on his shoulder, and the warmth and solidness of him was enough. 
it was enough to convince you that wonwoo would forever be a permanent presence in your life. hot tears scalded your cheeks, blurring your vision, and you let out a helpless whimper, clutching your teddy bear closer to your chest. the day he left still lingered in your mind, for it'd been the day that your entire world collapsed. wonwoo hadn't yelled, hadn't screamed at you, hadn't lashed out like you'd expected him to.
instead, he had given you a sad, teary-eyed smile, strong arms wrapping themselves around you, holding you flush against him, as if he were reluctant to let go. you had sobbed into his shirt, curling your fingers in the soft fabric, the woodsy scent of his cologne hitting your nose, comforting and familiar.
"i'm sorry, love, i wish it didn't have to be this way, and leaving you, leaving all the memories we made, is the hardest fucking thing i've ever had to do, and one day, i hope you will forgive me for hurting you. i will never be able to live with myself knowing that i did, and i won't blame you if you come to resent me one day. i would."
"thank you for loving me. thank you for loving all of me, the good, the bad, the ugly, and for loving me even with all the blood on my hands, despite all the danger i put you in. the danger that you are put in because you’re with someone like me.” and, after giving you one last kiss, dizzying and enough to make you weak in the knees, he left, taking your heart with him.
you knew wonwoo’s job wasn’t exactly ordinary, as he’d often come home at ungodly hours at night, bone-tired and with the occasional cut or bruise marring his perfect skin, and you hated those nights when you’d had to patch him up, for the sight of him in pain was too much to bear. 
wonwoo would sometimes be gone for days, even weeks at a time, unable to be contacted, and you would cry yourself to sleep every night, hoping and praying that he would come back to you, safe and sound.  
you’d always felt safe with wonwoo. despite the ruthlessness and mercilessness he showed when dealing with the men that were always chasing after him, it was a great contrast from the gentle touches and kisses you received. wonwoo had never hurt you, had always treated you like fine china, and that to you had been enough.  
it hadn’t mattered that scary looking men hunted him down every night, and wonwoo had had to close your eyes everytime he was about to defend himself and you, telling you to close your eyes. close your eyes love, i don’t want you to see this ugly, dark side of me, was what he always said. 
wonwoo was a mystery, and though you had managed to get past his seemingly iron clad defenses, there were still things he kept from you. he never talked about his job, nor why he disappeared for a few weeks and came back. 
when you had mustered up enough courage to ask him, wonwoo’s entire body grew tense, and you could see the fear dancing in his gorgeous light blue eyes. “do you not trust me?” you had asked, heart breaking at the thought that wonwoo didn’t trust you. devastation had flashed across his face. “of course i trust you, more than anyone in this world.” “then why? why won’t you tell me why you disappear without warning and then come back weeks or even months later? why? are you seeing someone else?” 
at that, wonwoo’s jaw flexed, just slightly. “no, of course not, it’s always been you for me, no one else. i can’t tell you why i’m away for weeks and months, it’ll put us in danger if i do. especially you. but promise me love, that you will trust me? i’m trying to find a way out, a way out of this cursed life i was led to live. will you wait for me?” “yes, i’d wait a hundred years for you.” 
the tears came faster now, streaming down your face like a waterfall, as you remembered how wonwoo had taken you into his arms afterwards, holding you close and whispering sweet nothings into your ear, rubbing comforting circles on your back. you hated the people that had forced wonwoo to take up a career he didn’t want, and for taking away the one man you had ever loved.  
”i won’t blame you if you come to resent me one day. i would.” you let out a choked sob, for you could never resent wonwoo for leaving you, even if it felt as if your heart had been ripped out of your chest. it’d been nearly two years since wonwoo had left, and that had been the last time you’d heard from him.  
you’d found out what wonwoo was so hell bent on keeping from you on a rainy day, of all days, and he had been gone for three weeks. the curiosity and urge to know what wonwoo was hiding was overwhelming, and you’d decided to look through the office he’d had installed some summers ago.  
after a few hours, your search had proven to be fruitless, and you’d been about to give up when you stumbled upon a worn cardboard box hidden in the closet. with shaking hands, you’d lifted the lid of the box and felt your heart drop into your stomach.
  inside was a dozen or so fake ids, passports, and a plethora of classified documents that you didn’t have the courage to go through. you’d sat on the floor in a daze afterwards, mind whirring with a million thoughts, and you weren’t sure if you wanted to laugh or cry at the absurdity of the situation. wonwoo, the selfless and beautiful man you had fallen in love with, was a fucking spy.  
said male had arrived home days later, and you had mustered up the courage to confront him about the box he’d hidden in the closet, hot tears streaming staining your cheeks. “am i part of your mission? did the agency want you to pretend to fall in love with me so you could get information? do you even really love me? or has our entire relationship been one complete lie?” 
you’d lamented, and the look of absolute horror and devastation that had flashed across wonwoo’s face was enough to feel a pang of guilt shoot through you.  
“no, never. while falling in love with you was something i never planned or expected, it’s the best thing that has ever happened to me, and i will never regret it, not even if my life is on the line."  you had crumpled to the ground, knees giving out as you collapsed to the floor. wonwoo had immediately rushed over to you, pulling you into his arms and holding you as you sobbed into his chest. 
after that, wonwoo began to be more honest with you about his job, telling you that the reason he was away for weeks or even months at a time was because of missions that his boss had demanded him go on. you were grateful that he trusted you not to tell anyone about his job, but you couldn’t help but feel paranoid. paranoid that something terrible was going to happen to you, or god forbid, wonwoo.
and because your intuition was too sharp, you had begun to notice cars tailing you and wonwoo, particularly after dinners and outings with his friends, hoshi, woozi, dokyeom, mingyu, scoups, vernon, joshua, jeonghan, minghao, jun, and seungkwan. then, one night, wonwoo had told you to close your eyes, albeit softly. 
“close your eyes, love,” he’d say, “and don’t open them until i say so.” you’d do as wonwoo would say, not daring to open your eyes until he deemed it safe. you faintly remembered the loud boom of a gun, and the loud screech of tires as wonwoo drove like a madman. there were nights where you were too scared to go out, for the fear of being followed or hunted down was overwhelming. 
wonwoo had one of his friends, jeonghan, who was an expert in cyber security, install a special security system in your home, and for mingyu and minghao to watch over you while he was away on missions. 
you were glad for the aforementioned males’ presence, as they were gentle and kind and always made sure you were okay. there were nights where you would wake up sobbing, due to terrible nightmares, and mingyu or minghao, who were sleeping in the guest rooms down the hall, would come rushing in and pull you into a comforting hug, rubbing soothing circles on your back. 
the relief that would course through you whenever wonwoo would come home, unscathed from a mission, was overwhelming. there were many nights spent where he would just hold you, and you would breathe in his comforting woodsy scent, basking in the warmth and familiarity of him. 
the day that he told you that his agency was relocating was the worst day of your life. you had begged him not to go, to stay and give up his dangerous career, but wonwoo had smiled sadly, taking you into his arms for the last time, pressing a soft kiss on your forehead. “i wish things were that simple, and i would give up my career for you in a heartbeat, but unfortunately, i can’t just up and leave, even if i wanted to.” 
it hurt, everything hurt, and the last words that wonwoo had ever said to you still lingered in your mind. “promise me, love, that if our paths never cross again, if i am not able to come back to you, that you will find the strength to be happy. i won’t be able to live with myself if you aren’t happy and being loved and cherished by someone, even if it’s not me.” 
hot tears scalded your cheeks as you sobbed, heart cracking and chest heaving with uneven breaths. i’m sorry, my love, but i don’t i will ever be able to move on. you were the greatest joy in my life, and now that you’ve left me, i have nothing left. i will never be able to love someone as deeply as i did you.
