Some days, Jibeom finds himself unable to smile. 

It isn’t most days, thankfully - he’s got a family that cares for him, friends who find it in themselves to annoy him every day, a cat who likes to wind her way around his legs to the point of tripping him whenever he comes home. He can usually find a reason to smile, even if it’s very small. 

But life is annoying, and life is hard. There are days where the gray cloud hanging over him only seems to grow darker and heavier no matter what - his boss being upset at him for something he can’t control, rain pouring overhead on the one day he forgot to bring his umbrella. When that happens, it’s too hard to smile, and Jibeom doesn’t even want to try. 

On one of these dark days, he finds himself inside a little florist a street away from his office, one that he always passes by but has never really found a reason to actually explore. Today, though, the rain is pouring too hard for him to make it the next street to his bus stop, so he finds himself ducking into the flower shop as a short respite from the downpour. 

A little bell tinkles as he bursts into the shop, hair and clothes damp from his sprint through the streets. He’s so busy digging through his bag, trying to make sure his laptop didn’t get wet when the rain suddenly picked up, that at first he doesn’t notice you approaching him. 

“Hello!”

Jibeom jumps, eyes snapping up to take you in. You’re smiling brightly as though the rain outside doesn’t bother you at all, dressed in a green apron stained with bits of dirt and flowers. 

“Hello,” he replies cautiously, slinging his bag back over his back. At the last minute he remembers you’re a stranger, not someone he should easily show his annoyance to, so he tries to school his features into a more neutral expression than he’d been showing before. 

You don't seem to notice, the smile on your face still as sweet and bright as when he first saw you. “Welcome to my little garden,” you say warmly, gesturing to the expanse of flowers and greenery all around you. “Is there something you were looking for? Or was it just the downpour?”

Jibeom reddens against his will. “Just... just the downpour,” he mumbles. “Sorry about that, I can leave -”

“Oh no, it’s fine!.” You laugh a little. “You’re welcome to stay as long as you need until we close. The rain’s pouring really hard, wouldn’t want you to get sick or anything.”

Jibeom isn’t sure why, but for some reason, tears suddenly begin welling in his eyes. It takes all of his effort to hold them back. “Thanks,” he croaks out, trying to swallow the little lump growing in his throat. “I appreciate it.”

"No problem,” you reply, smiling softly. “If I may ask... you look pretty tired. Had a long day?”

Normally when strangers talk to him, Jibeom closes himself up, mostly just does the bare minimum to seem polite and tries to shut down the conversation as soon as he can. But looking at you now, Jibeom doesn’t feel the walls of his defenses beginning to rise. Instead, he feels them starting to fall. 

“Yeah,” he says quietly. “It’s... it’s been a lot.”

“I see.” You nod slightly, lips pressed together in sympathy. “Give me one moment.”

Jibeom watches you walk around the shop, plucking a few flowers of various colors from their places on shelves and in buckets on the floor. At one of the tables, you make quick work of them, snipping stems and trimming leaves until you’ve created a small, pretty bouquet. “Here,” you finally say, extending the flowers to him when you’ve finished. “These are for you.”

He blinks once, twice, looking between you and the flowers. “Sorry, I - what?”

“They’re on the house,” you clarify. “For you.”

Jibeom blinks again. “I - why?”

“The earth laughs in flowers,” you say, smiling as you press the small bouquet into his hands. “I thought that perhaps, if you see the way it laughs, it will help you smile a little too.”

Dumbly, Jibeom closes his fingers around the green stems. The soft, sweet scent of the flowers fills his nose - he recognizes a couple of roses and something that looks like a lily amidst more blooms whose name he doesn’t know. “Thank you,” he whispers, fighting the urge to cry.

“You’re welcome,” you reply, and Jibeom can almost feel the warmth of your voice wrapping around him like a blanket shielding him against the cold outside. “Oh - it looks like the rain stopped!”

Sure enough, it has stopped, only a thin drizzle painting the windows of your shop. Jibeom thanks you again, only slightly less choked this time, then heads out again to catch his bus.

Once he reaches home, Jibeom looks at the flowers still clutched between his fingers. Vaguely he thinks he should find a vase or something similar to put them in, but for now he just stares at them. Bright pink, a sprig of warm yellow, deep blue and pale purple stare back at him, interspersed with leafy greenery. Colorful, warm.

As Jibeom carefully arranges them in a tall glass of water, he realizes the weight of his day no longer feels as heavy as it once was. 

He returns to your shop the next day, the sky bright blue with a sun shining bright against the clouds. You’re helping a customer when he arrives, but when you’re finished you turn to him, eyes bright and smile as wide as he remembered. 

“Hi!” you exclaim, walking up to him. “How are you?”

Jibeom smiles. “Feeling better,” he replies honestly. “I wanted to thank you again for the flowers. They were beautiful.”

You duck your head in acknowledgement. “Thank you,” you say sweetly. “I’m glad you liked them.”

“I also -” He coughs a little, swallowing down the embarrassment threatening to crawl up his cheeks. “I don’t think I got your name last time.”

“Oh!” For a moment, you look as flustered as he feels. It’s quite endearing, Jibeom thinks as his smile grows wider. “I’m so sorry. My name is Y/N.” You cock your head. “If I may, what’s yours?”

“I’m Jibeom,” he replies. “It’s nice to meet you.”

A conversation arises from there, pleasant and warm and full of lovely, bright laughter. As you smile, as you laugh, Jibeom remembers your words from yesterday, and - 

It’s true, he thinks, watching the way sunlight streams onto your face, the way you seem to glow under the golden hour with the brightness of your smile. It’s true what you said, that the earth laughs in flowers. 

Because looking at you now, laughing in the sunlight, Jibeom can see the flowers ever-blooming in your smile.

he loves you, he loves you

hyunjae x you, fake badboy au, florist au, fluff 

[summary] so hyunjae’s really a bad boy after all (or he gets mistaken as a bad boy) [words] 2k [a/n] ok this is BIG sad, i’m all soft for hyunjae :( 

It all started when you forgot your wallet at home when you had already picked out a bunch of flowers for the new vase you bought yesterday to decorate your boring new apartment room. You let the person at the register know, explaining your situation before the person behind you said they would pay for yours. 

As shocked at you were, Hyunjae walked up beside you, setting his flowers down next to yours as he smiled at the cashier. Your eyes widened, wondering why a man in a leather jacket would be willing to do something like that. He was quite intimidating to you as you took a step to the side, avoiding his eyes. He noticed it but he just smiled wider at you. 

“You didn’t have to do that.” You stated, your hands stuck together as you tried to look at him. 

“I wanted to.” Hyunjae leaned in, whispering like a tease. It made you blush as the cashier finished wrapping the flowers up, handing it to him. He took it, thanking them before he handed the flowers to you. “Here you go.”

“What about yours?” You asked, suddenly so easy to talk to him now. You didn’t realize it as you slowly took them, seeing his full face now. It was well-defined though still a little intimidating but when he smiled, that changed the way he seemed. 

Hyunjae hid his hands inside the pockets of his pants as his shoulders curled up near his ears. “They’re in your hands.” 

“Why didn’t you get yours too?” You asked but you closed your eyes, holding a finger up at him because you were getting confused with his words. He was chuckling as he tried to hide it when he turned away then back at you. 

“I bought the flowers and gave them to you, as a gift.” 

Your cheeks burned up even more, confused at everything he was doing. Your hands came together, holding the flowers shyly as your fingers tapped on each other. “Why?” 

Hyunjae looked pretty shy too when his foot twisted onto the floor, showing a confident smile at you. “Because you appreciate flowers. I saw you taking your time with them, smelling and smiling at them. It’s like you were thanking them for growing so prettily.” 

You couldn’t help to cover your blushing lips behind the flowers in your hand. Hyunjae couldn’t see it so his hand was up in front of you, as if he panicked. 

“I didn’t mean to make it sound creepy but-” He saw your eyes closing but you were only giggling about the situation. He sighed, letting his hands down with his cheeks turning red as he whispered, “I just thought it was nice because people tend to ignore the process of it.” 

“Do you do the same too?” You asked out of curiosity. It seemed to him that he wanted to show you his world all of sudden. That was something he wanted to tell you, but instead, he asked you as question back. 

“Do you want to go on a date or something?” His words surprised you as your eyes widened again. He even surprised himself that he covered his lips with a hand. He noticed your confused look before he continued, “So we can talk about it?” 

It took a long second before you smiled widely, moving the flowers away so he could see you. 

You agreed on going on a date with him, surprisingly a picnic at the park before going to a night concert festival. Hyunjae called it a double date, not with two more people but having two dates in a day. 

Despite his ‘intimidating’ leather jacket though he had taken it off to the side during the picnic date, he was sharing snacks with you and attempting to throw them up into the air and try to catch them with his mouth. The breeze felt wonderful as you laughed at his dumb move. You shoved a snack into his mouth as your lips beamed. He paid you back by pecking your lips when you were having hiccups. He was sneaky but you loved it. 

You loved it so much that you told your friends about him, but some of them weren’t sure if he was the right one for you. One of them knew him from their university and how there were rumors about him being a bad boy because he had always broke people’s hearts. You didn’t understand it because of how he was with you. You wouldn’t be surprised if they were only saying that because of how he dressed. Though they denied to that idea, you didn’t want to believe them. They were probably just blinded by that smoking-motorcycle image, a stereotypical bad boy because you knew Hyunjae more than that. 

The next dates went well with your friends sometimes checking in from time to time, still being skeptical about him as only one or two of them met him already. It bothered you some times that by the time he’s officially your boyfriend, you knew you just had to tell him about it. 

Today, he surprised you once again about his interests. You never thought you would be going on a flower-making date with him when you got to the address he gave you, seeing him in an apron at the front, as if he was the teacher. There wasn't anyone else there as you slowly walked up to him, your lips curving. He must had arranged the time just for you. 

“This is surprising.” You stopped in front of him before he put an apron on you, turning you around by the shoulder. You could feel his knuckles at your spine, shivering as he tied the string together into a loop. 

“Welcome to my secret hideout.” Hyunjae joked then he turned you around again so he could see how sparkling your eyes were. His lips were beaming as you couldn’t stop looking at them. 

“So this is why you knew a lot about flowers.” You commented as he led you to a table with many different flowers were set over. You took the seat that he took you too as he sat down beside you. He leaned his head onto his curved arm on the table as he admired your fascinated eyes. You were amazed at how beautiful everything was in the room, especially the flowers in front of you but that didn’t beat the one looking back at you right now. “Are you a florist or something?” 

“I’m learning to be one.” He smiled and almost laughed at your gagging mouth. It was a surprise for you again as he continued. “That’s why I found you in the shop. I mean, flowers are supposed to catch my eyes but I guess you are one too.” 

You burst into a giggle, your cheeks turning red. It was too early to do that, you thought but you couldn’t help to feel so loved at every moment with Hyunjae these days. It was as if he knew your everything to make you fall so easily into his apple eyes and singful voice. It felt like it would be forever for you both as you held onto his hand, pulling it from his lap, and setting your hands over the table with a sweet smile, you asked, “Okay, then what will I be learning from you today, Mr. Future Florist?” 

He did it back as he leaned close to you, almost brushing his nose with yours. You owned his heart as he whispered to you like a flower would, “A flower crown.” 

In the middle of playing around and testing flower colors, you both finally decided what to put for the flower crown. Hyunjae had noticed a sad look on your face, as if something was bothering you. He softly smiled, setting the flowers in his hands down and began helping you. You were surprised at the touch, how he moved closer until your hips connected while his hands overlapped yours, guiding your fingers through the thin stems of the flowers to loop them over each other. Your eyes stayed widened as he wasn’t looking when he asked, “Is something wrong?” 

That question tickled you. Maybe it was how soft his voice sounded, like he was aware of the heavy feeling you had, but you could feel your eyes beginning to dry up, blinking them quickly before they could form tears of contentment. He turned to look at you, noticing the sparkles in them, his lips curving slowly in admiration. There was so much love in his eyes that you could feel a tear slipping from your eyelash. His head tilted, waiting to hear your voice that seemed to always comfort his heart. Your lips curved a little along with him, sighing as your eyes wandered to your interlocking fingers where his every fingertip made your heart bloom a flower petal at each brushing touch. It could never be nothing if you didn’t say it now. 

“It’s just my friends.” You tried to laugh, shaking your head then his hands slipped over yours, his fingers curling between yours. It didn’t feel tight at all but you knew he only meant that it was okay to tell him. His eyes were looking at them as his thumb rubbed your hand. “They keep telling me that you’re not a good person, that you had bad rumors so I shouldn’t be hanging around you because you’re just a bad boy… When I know you’re not.” 

Hyunjae had turned to you at your break, his smile was still lingering at his lips when he let go of your hands and brought one up to the side of your face. His fingers tickled it, curling your hair behind your ear as if he was going to whisper love to you. He sighed softly, never leaving your eyes, “What do you see in me?” 

You almost giggled, your smile turning into a grin. It felt like a hard question just turned into an easy question. “Everything that’s meant to be with me.” 

“Then that’s all that should matter.” Hyunjae wrinkled his nose close to you before he turned away to work back at his flowers to hide his fluttering heart at the sound of your words. You followed him too, slowly though. You were trying to understand what he meant as you touched your unfinished flower crown and not making it further. You listened to his voice as your rubbed the petals. “We don’t need their opinion on what’s best for us. That’s for us to decide.” 

You nodded. He was right, yet you felt the need for another assurance that it’s a matter of understanding rather than making the choice for others. He saw your unsure look as he smiled again, his hands covering one of your hands as he asked, “Are you still worried?” 

“A little.” You twisted your head, your features squishing together as you smiled. You adored how he could read you so easily, just like how you did with the flowers when he first approached you in that flower shop. 

“Then let’s get them back.” Hyunjae slipped a small ring made with one single flower and its long stem wrapped together that he made just now, through your index finger. He spread your hand, holding it over his opposite palm before he looked at you almost playfully. You could see the sneaky look on his face as your eyebrows heightened, your lips bursting a small laugh. 

“How are we going to do that?” You asked, loving how he warmed your hand by the rub of his thumb where he had been adoring how cute your hand looked with that flower ring. 

“You’ll see.” Then he kissed you on the cheek, his perky lips pressing hard as you closed your eyes shut tightly. You opened them when he moved away, a laugh accompanying your glaring eyes. 

Hyunjae helped you finish making your flower crown as you discussed all of the ways to get them back. With all of his suggestions, you thought, he really was a bad boy after all.

Artist Note: Happy belated Valentine’sDay! This is for @bangchan-fairy and @0x1lovebot fic’s exchange. This fic is for @jjoonggurt, first time writing for someone outside of The Boyz, I hope you enjoy it! 🌸

m.list tag list

One passing comment made you look at your best friend in a different light. You’d known Felix for years, and never once did you feel nervous around him— until today. If it wasn’t for the elderly woman that stopped inside your grandparent's flower shop earlier while you and Felix were working, maybe your heart rate wouldn’t quicken every time he flashed his friendly smile at you. It seemed like she had planted a small seed in your mind with her words, right before Valentine's Day, your first one where you’d be single after your breakup from months ago. This year you vowed not to spend it sulking, thinking about past partners, or fawning after someone new— but here you were staring at his side profile with hearts in your eyes. This wasn't the first time that someone had made the assumption that you and he were dating, and typically, you both would laugh it off and correct them, but the customer today said something that you’d never thought about before. Your mind drifted away to the conversation you had earlier in the day with the woman…

flashback

Felix had been spending most of the first few hours of your shift together trying to cheer you up and get your mind off of the really hard morning you had and how stressed you were over an upcoming exam. He was always nice to you and upbeat at work but today he was far more attentive. You admired his efforts and he did get a smile out of you a few times here and there but you were still in a mood.

He walked up behind you out of nowhere and started massaging your shoulders. “Are you still in a bad mood?”

You sighed, rapping your fingers against the counter. “Yeah,” you muttered as Felix continued his attempt to get you to relax.

“Stop stressing! Every time I look over at you, your face is all scrunched up like you’re in pain.” He rubbed your shoulders and you could feel some of the stress melt away.

“Then don’t look at me,” you sassed with a yawn that turned into a fit of laughter when you felt his hands dig into your sides as he began tickling you. You tried to free yourself from his grasp but you were laughing too hard.

You stopped messing around when you heard the sound of the front door being opened. An older woman walked into the shop, eyeing both of you with amusement while talking on her cellphone. Felix let you go, stepping away from you and excusing himself to the backroom to take a break. “Um… if you need me, I’ll be in the back.”

Giving him a quick nod, you turned your attention to the customer in the shop. “Hi, are you here to pick up an order ma’am? I believe I talked to you earlier over the phone about some tulips?”

She walked up to the counter and you could have sworn she looked like one of your grandparents' friends. “Yes, sweetheart. Here is the receipt.” She handed you the small slip of paper, and you grabbed the floral arrangement that she ordered.

“Did you want a vase?”

She shook her head. “Was that young man your boyfriend? My husband and I used to work at a summer camp together a long time ago, way before you were born I’m sure.” She chuckled to herself a bit, “You two are very cute together.” She smiled at you as you started to wrap her flowers loosely with paper.

You looked up at her and gave her a polite smile, “Nope, just really good friends.” You used twine to fasten the stems together and handed the flowers to her as you spoke, “We get that all the time.”

“Gee, I wonder why?” She winked at you as she took her bouquet. “These are beautiful, thank you so much. Have a wonderful day.”

“You’re welcome! Have a nice day”, you called out to her as she went out the front door just as Felix returned to stand in his usual spot beside you at the counter.

end flashback

At first, you didn't pay her sarcasm any mind, but as the day went on you started to think about the implications behind what she said. You'd known Felix for years and it came naturally for you to be as affectionate with him as you were. Constantly hugging each other, buying gifts for one another whenever you saw something that reminded you of him or vice versa. Sometimes he’d leave little notes in between the pages of your textbooks just to make sure you would remember to take breaks while you studied. To you, these were simple actions with no romantic feelings behind them, but perhaps people saw something more between you and Felix that you were both blind to? There was rarely a moment where you both were single at the same time so it never crossed your mind to try and get with him.

Now that you thought about it though, you often found yourself comparing your exes to Felix and wishing you’d meet someone as amazing as he was. Your eyes widened as you realized that you had just uncovered some secret crush that had been lying dormant within you for god knows how long. “Oh my gosh,” you said aloud.

“What?” Felix’s deep voice startled you out of your thoughts. He was going through the list of floral arrangements that had been ordered for Valentine’s Day beside you.

“Oh, uh- nothing. I just noticed something just now and um— yeah.” You were getting flustered and if Felix noticed he didn’t bring any attention to it. All he did was nod his head and smile at you before returning his focus to the clipboard in his hands. Even his smile was making you swoon, heat dashing across your cheeks. You turned your back to him, the elderly woman’s words still echoing around in your mind.

-

You sat at your desk, mind again drifting away from the thick textbook in front of you. Felix crossed your mind and a huge grin spread across your face. It was just a little crush, nothing more— that’s what you were telling yourself at least. Your chance never came to tell Felix about what the customer from the afternoon said and you thought about texting him just to bring it up but nerves kept stopping you. Bringing your phone out of your pocket you thought about what to say to start up a conversation.

“You talk to Felix all the time, chill out”, you thought to yourself. A sigh left your lips as you shook your head at how silly you were being. Settling for a simple “hey”, before putting your phone down to get back into studying. The screen of your phone lit up with a text message a few minutes later.

felix✿: hey y/n, are you still studying?

y/n: i’m taking a break. i can’t keep reading this stupid book

felix✿: ahh, i don’t want to distract you. i know you said that exam was pretty important

y/n: you’re not distracting me! i wanted to talk to you lol

felix✿: i can call you when i get out of practice?

y/n: yay! why are you having practice so late anyway?

felix✿: some of the guys had other plans today and didn’t get here until now. i’ll call you when I’m done okay”

You went back to the book in front of you, turning the page and letting the letters of the first paragraph blur together. Pushing through for another hour and a half, you read two chapters in entirety and decided to be done for the night.

Felix’s photo popped up on your phone screen as he called you just like he said he would. He greeted you cheerfully, “Hey, y/n!” You always admired the way Felix said your name with his accent, the sound of his voice making you blush.

“How was practice?” You put your phone on speaker and started doodling in a notebook.

You heard him groan over the phone, “Can you hear how tired I am through the phone? My legs feel like jello right now.”

You frowned at the little heart you had drawn on the page, “Why don’t you take off tomorrow? My grandma is always fretting over you and how much you overwork yourself between the shop and your dance group.”

“Eh, then I wouldn’t get a chance to see you.” He answered without hesitation.

A smile tugged the corner of your lips upward, “We can always hang out outside of work you know.”

“I know, I know.” Felix got quiet on the other side of the line and you wondered if you should say something about how you’ve been feeling. You opened your mouth to say something but he beat you to it. “Oh yeah,” he piped up again. “Something so funny happened the other day and I've been wanting to tell you about it.”

“I’m all ears.” You absentmindedly wrote his name in block letters beside the heart you had just finished filling in.

Felix went on to recount what happened during his dance practice a few days ago. Of course, Jisung and Changbin were involved. Your sides hurt from how hard you were laughing as he told you about the prank war that started between the two at their studio. Somewhere in between his story you closed your notebook and crawled into your bed to curl up underneath a blanket.

You stayed up talking to Felix until almost 1 in the morning, making each other laugh and talking about how your lives had been going over the past few months. He told you about some of his doubts as an aspiring dancer and you vented about all the pressure you were under in your program at uni. One tangent turning into another until you were too tired to make coherent sentences.

“Ugh, Felix. I have class tomorrow morning” you mumbled into the phone. You tried to stay up for a while longer but your eyelids were becoming too heavy for you to keep them open.

“Technically you have class later today”, he joked.

“I should go to sleep, huh?” You laughed a little, voice a tad groggy as the sleepiness took over. “G’night Felix.”

“Yeah. Good night y/n”, Felix he whispered into the phone before hanging up.

-

The next day at work was pretty boring for you as you barely got a chance to talk to Felix. Most of your time was spent alone up front dealing with customers while he spent a lot of his time in the back preparing arrangements to be sent out. Valentines Day was a little over a week away and it was getting busy.

It was getting slower as the day went into the late evening. Deciding to check on Felix, you went to the back room. He was sitting hunched over the table with what looked like a pile of broken stemmed flowers. “What are you doing?” You peered over his shoulder to watch his hands fiddle with something.

“I’m making a bracelet.”

“Out of the flowers that you didn’t use? Can you even do that?” You watched as he tried to loop one of the stems until it formed a circle.

“Y/n how long have I been working here with you?”

You rolled your eyes, “Fine, then I should be able to make one too.” You pulled up a stool to sit beside him.

“Mmm, this one's for you though.” His eyes never once left what he was doing.

Felix always had a way of making you feel special with even the smallest of gestures. “Why are you making me one?”

“I thought these flower scraps looked nice together and I’m bored”, he looked up at you with a lopsided grin.

You stared at him for a moment trying to count every freckle that you had previously taken for granted on his beautiful face. “You are too sweet to me.”

“I’m just being me.” He said it so easily like it was natural for him to always be so amazing to you and knowing that made you like him even more.

You pulled a stray peony off the table and started rolling the stem between your fingers. “Do you have dance practice tonight?”

“No, I thought you wanted to hang out?” Felix looked up at you with a look of confusion that matched yours.

“I-i don't remember making any plans…”, your voice drifted off.

He started laughing softly to himself, “When we talked yesterday? You were pretty sleepy though so maybe you don’t remember. Another day then?”

Placing the flower down, you tried to play it cool. “No, no! We can still hang out. I mean— I'm free and I don't need to study. You know, I should get back to work. You can give me my bracelet when we hang out later.” You rose from where you were sitting beside him and nearly skipped up to the front, happy to spend time with Felix later.

-

From that night on you hung out with Felix a lot more. You made a habit out of getting food together after work and even if you had to study you did it at his place. You hadn’t spent this much time together in a long time, you missed it honestly. Things seemed to be different between you two, a few times you would catch him staring at you and there was this charged energy behind each hug that you shared. It was as if the universe was trying its hardest to pull you together.

You caught yourself wrapped around each other in your bed a day ago after you’d both fallen asleep while watching a movie together and that was the last straw. You knew you needed to say something about this unspoken thing that was going on between you. You liked Felix and you were pretty sure he felt the same way about you. The timing was just off, today was Valentines’ Day and you didn’t want to make things awkward but you were dying to get what you were feeling off of your chest.

You were sitting down on his bed, flipping through your notebook and pretending to study. You’d been hyping yourself up all day to say something and you told yourself that it was now or never. “W-we should go on an actual date.” You voiced trying to keep your tone even, your heart beating so hard in your chest that you could feel the pounding in your head.

He looked over at you from where he was sitting on his bed. “We should,” Felix responded like it was no big deal and that wasn’t enough for you.

Pushing past the lump in your throat you continued to speak. “Do you feel like there is something between us Felix or am I just overthinking this? We’ve been friends for so long and we’re always like…” you couldn’t find the words and that made you frustrated. “Things always feel so easy with you and when you do certain things like kiss my forehead before you go on break, make me those little flower bracelets, or something it makes me feel like you might like me as much as I like you.”

Felix’s face softened and he went to sit closer to you. You felt his arms wrap around you and he brought you into the warmest hug, stroking your hair softly. “Hey, you haven’t been overthinking. I do like you, I care about you a lot. You’re one of my favorite people. I should have said something sooner but never wanted to make things awkward for us since we're friends.”

You let out a sigh, “I've been holding that in for like a week now.”

“Just a week?” He pulled away from you with a smile on his face.

You knew he was just trying to make you laugh since he could sense how nervous you were to say that but it did make you curious. You cleared your throat, “Did you um, know you felt this way before now?”

Felix nodded, placing a quick kiss on your forehead. “For a while.”

-

Felix hadn't let your hand go most of the afternoon as you explore the city together. It felt right to be out like this together, hand in hand. Normally you're a jittery mess before a date but you felt so comfortable around him. You talked and walked around aimlessly, dipping in and out of shops that piqued your interest. The huge grin that he had on his face never budged throughout the entire day and as the day went on it only seemed to grow wider.

Felix stopped to get a bunch of snacks for the movie that was playing at one of the botanical gardens nearby that you planned to go to later and as you walked back to your car you noticed the happy expression on his face. “What are you so smiley over?” you finally asked in between sips of the boba that you were drinking.

“I’m on a date with you.” He’d been showering you with comments like that all day, along with complimenting you on how great you looked today.

Getting into your car you drove to the garden where the movie was being played. You were so glad that you'd remembered to bring blankets and some pillows so that you could get as comfortable as possible since you’d be sitting outside on the ground.

It didn’t take you long to find the perfect spot away from everyone else trying to watch the movie. You sat on your elbows snacking on some candy as the movie was just about to start. The garden was lit up by cute backyard lights and you could tell that whoever coordinated this tried their best to make it as romantic as possible and it was. You were surrounded by beautiful flowers and you could hear the gurgle of water from one of the nearby fountains.

Once the lights turned off and the movie started you whispered to Felix, “It’s really nice out here.” He was underneath the blanket that you were sharing with him trying to pay attention to the beginning of the movie.

He leaned closer to you and whispered, “Yeah. All the flowers remind me of work, though.”

You chuckled, “Let’s not talk about work okay?” You fixed your eyes onto the projector screen and tried to get into the comedy on screen but after a while, you couldn’t focus anymore. Suddenly you were hyper-aware of where you were and with whom. Snuggled up with Felix under the stars with his hand on your thigh and you had your arm underneath his neck. Your faces were so close that it wouldn’t take much to fill in the gap and kiss him but you couldn’t do that with his eyes glued to the movie on the screen.

You poked him in the stomach gently until he turned to look in your direction. “What’s up?” His voice was a whisper as he tried not to disturb the other people trying to watch the movie.

“You’re really quiet. I want you to talk to me.” You tried to fight against the smirk that was tugging at the corners of your lips.

Felix shifted until he was facing you fully, “Okay, what else do you want?”

You felt brave as you mulled over how to answer him for a beat before saying, “Hm, for us to actually be official.” You sported a toothy grin as you said it, hoping that he would get the gist of what else you wanted.

“Okay, done. Anything else?” Felix waited for you to respond.

Everything so far seemed to flow naturally between you guys and you supposed this would be no different. You went for it and answered him by bringing your lips to his in a soft, sweet kiss. His lips were infused with every feeling that he had for you. Though it was a simple first kiss, the meaning behind it was what you craved. Kissing Felix was exactly how you expected it to be, it was light and his lips were smooth and they felt great against yours. He pressed his lips to yours one more time before embracing you into a loving hug. The movie playing was now background noise to the small world you’d just created with him in the garden. In his arms you felt safe and cared for, you weren’t afraid to fall for him and you knew he wouldn’t dare hurt you. Something so great had been right under your nose this entire time, strangers saw it when you didn’t but you were so happy that you finally saw what was in front of you all along.

Name: Ren Age: 21 Writing Blog URL(s): @ateez-ly​, @wxyvision​ & @cherry-woo​, and only the odd work on my main ( @soft-woo )

Nationality: British Languages: English, Spanish, Dutch (learning), limited Mandarin Star Sign: Aries MBTI: INFP-T Favorite color: Red Favorite food: Pasta or cheesecake Favorite movie: Coyote Ugly Favorite ice cream flavor: Strawberry Favorite animal: Red panda Go-to karaoke song: Back To Black by Amy Winehouse 

What fandom(s) do you write for? Ateez, Nct (ot21), The Boyz, and now Stray Kids

When did you post your first piece? My first writing blog work was posted February 1st 2019 (Quenched - Yeosang)

Do you write fluff/angst/crack/general/smut, combo, etc? Why? Generally fluff and angst, sometimes a combo, though I have tried writing some crack more recently. I'm just more familiar with fluff and angst and it's easier to pull off

Do you write OCs, X Readers, Ships...etc? I mostly write x reader stuff. I have written with OCs and ships but I prefer to read and write x reader stuff so I stuck with that

Why did you decide to write for Tumblr? My Ateez writing blog was my first writing blog, but I did write a couple of stuff before that. I think it's just a case of "I have this really cool idea and I want to share it with my friends"

What inspires you to write? Just about anything - conversations with friends, Tumblr posts, my weird dreams etc.

What genres/AUs do you enjoy writing the most? I've really enjoyed writing prince aus (like my Xiaojun prince au) as well as getting into writing fantasy and crack stuff. I still feel most confident with angst though

What do you hope your readers take away from your work? I simply hope they enjoy it. It would be great if I could make them smile or cry with my writing

What do you do when you hit a rough spot creatively? I just take a step back. I don't force myself to write if nothing's coming to me. Sometimes I talk through what I'm writing with a friend and it helps give me some ideas. But generally, I try not to force it

What is your favorite work and why? Your most successful? My favourite work, excluding my wips, is probably 'Dear First Love' because it's the longest thing I've ever written and I think the storyline is really cute. My most successful is 'Hugging Ateez'

Do you think there’s a difference between writing fanfiction vs. completely original prose? I mean yes? To some degree. In terms of the process I guess not, but original prose is less likely to include famous people (real or fictional) so it's different in that respect

What do you think makes a good story? A good story, to me, is one where the reader is invested in the story. If the reader doesn't care about the characters and what happens to them, then to me, it's not a good story

What is your writing process like? I get an idea, write down the basic idea, then build around that, laying out the plot and all its twists and turns and fleshing out my characters. Once I've got a good idea of what I'm doing, I'll start writing. When I'm organised, anyway. Otherwise I just see where my writing takes me!

Would you ever repurpose a fic into a completely original story? Absolutely! If there was a fic that I was really proud of and wanted to turn it into an original story, I'd go for it

What tropes do you love, and what tropes can’t you stand? I'm a sucker for pretty much any trope as long as it's legal and not toxic. I really love 'found family' and the classic 'friends to lovers' tropes. I'm not sure if these are tropes, but I'm not really into mpreg or body swapping. You do you, writers, but it's just not for me

How much would you say audience feedback/engagement means to you? A lot! Even one reblog or comment puts a smile on my face and makes me proud of what I've made

Coffee or tea? What are you ordering? Tea! I have regular tea with some milk and a couple of sugars

Dream job (whether you have a job or not)? At the moment, it's to be a florist, although I'd really love to be a successful author

If you could have one superpower, what would you choose?  The power to control plants so maybe mine won't die on me anymore

If you could visit a historical era, which would you choose? Either the Victorian or Georgian/regency era

If you were a trope in a teen high school movie, what would you have been? Probably the nerd/teacher's pet?

Do you believe in aliens/supernatural creatures?  Some of them yes (e.g ghosts), some of them no (e.g. vampires)

Do you think fanfic writers get unfairly judged? I do. Especially by those who don't read/write fanfiction. A lot of people think we're 'cringy' or that we make things gross. There's definitely some gross fanfics out there, but I don't think fanfic writers as a whole should be judged by one questionable fanfic someone read once

Do you think art can be a medium for change? Yes, all kinds of art can. There's a lot of literature and art now that picks apart problems in our society and challenges them. It's already lead to some change in the way people think about certain things

Do you ever feel there are times when you’re writing for others, rather than yourself? I used to back when I wrote requests on another site. I'd sit there and churn out request after request after request like a robot until I started to hate writing and had to take a break for a while. Now, I just write what inspires me. I'll take a few requests but no way am I ever going back to the way I wrote before

Do your offline friends/loved ones know you write for Tumblr? I imagine my university flatmates have probably seen me reblogging my writing at least once, so yes. As for my family, I don't think they know what Tumblr even is (thankfully!)

What is one thing you wish you could tell your followers? This is really simple but… I love you and thank you for supporting me!

Do you have any advice for aspiring writers who might be too scared to put themselves out there? I know it's super scary putting out writing for others to see, but really, some leaps are worth it. You'll never really know how something will go if you never try. Maybe you could start off with small steps, like sharing a piece of writing with a couple of friends if you don't feel confident jumping straight in

Are there any times when you regret joining Tumblr? Sometimes, if there's drama in a fandom or fanwars going on, but I generally try to stay away from it and just enjoy the lighthearted content

Do you have any mutuals who have been particularly formative/supportive in your Tumblr journey? Yes, in one way or another. Some of them have helped me with my writing ideas, whilst others have been a rock for me emotionally, and many have played both roles. To name a handful of people, @linothot, @silverstonemanor and @wangjyunhao amongst many others have really helped me 💛

Pick a quote to end your interview with:  Be who you want to be, not the person who others want you to be

flower wish

changmin/q x you, florist au, fluff 

[summary] it’s a beautiful encounter, changmin’d say, if those flowers were for him  [words] 2k  [a/n] wanna thank a friend for helping me a bit with this! enjoy ♡ 

You drove up to the address on the note in your hand, checking the numbers before you got out of the car. You opened the back passenger door, pulling a bouquet of tulips in bunches as big as your upper body. You checked through the petals, making sure the requested note was attached to it before you closed the door, making your way to the door. 

The sun had been shining all morning after all of those rain from the past few days as you passed the small garden that lined up with the sidewalk leading to the door where the petals and leaves of the flowers on the ground were wet. The wind blew, making them dance as you stood in front of the door. With a curve on your lips, you rang the bell. 

The door opened to Changmin, who was still in his lazy clothes. They looked rather clean though, and quite stylist, if you had a say. He didn’t look tired with those glasses on but he cheekily smiled, wondering what the bouquet was for. You handed it over, your smile growing wider. 

“Good morning. I have a delivery for Mr. Lee Hyunjae. Are you him?” You asked as he shook his head with a smile still on his face. “Is he present?” 

Changmin nodded before he turned his head back, calling his name before he looked back at you when Hyunjae yelled back that he’ll come down. He smiled at you, grinning as he suddenly moved closer. “I know who you are already.” 

“What?” You were confused as you squinted your eyes at him below your black cap. Despite looking like a disguise though you really looked like a delivery person, you didn’t understand what he was talking about. 

“I’ll let Hyunjae surprise himself.” He whispered back as your eyebrow heightened at his blistering laugh. He moved to the side, hearing Hyunjae run behind. Hyunjae took a few breaths before he smiled at you with Changmin covering his lips at the side, watching the scene fall into the perfect scenario he dreamed of. 

“Thank you. I really appreciate that you’d do a last minute delivery.” 

“Of course, Mr. Lee.” You handed him the bouquet as he took them. “I’ll be heading out now.” 

“Drive safely back! Thank you again!” Hyunjae waved a hand at you when you walked back to your car. You smiled again, taking a quick glance at Changmin before driving away. 

As shocked as Changmin should be, his eyes were widened at Hyunjae, who was closing the door before he noticed him. 

“Why are you still standing there?” Hyunjae asked as he walked away with the bouquet in his hands. He set it down on the kitchen table and turned to him, judging him a bit with his pursed lips. 

Changmin had followed him, hands up close to his face. He was dumbfounded though his lips still curved at how embarrassed he was just now. “I thought that was your lover in disguise, like a surprise event or something!” 

“Why would you think that?” 

“Because they’re also a florist?” 

Hyunjae sighed, a hand resting on his hip as his eyes softened at him. “Changmin, they wouldn’t be delivering flowers right now if they took the day off for our date today.” 

Hyunjae hopped away with an excited smile on his face, heading back to his room. Changmin hoped he wouldn’t face you again after that yet your expression bothered him a bit. It’s not like you would remember him too, right? 

“I must be stupid.” he cursed at himself, pulling his hair in frustration as he followed Hyunjae and went into his own room. 

Changmin woke up early one morning, dressed in a nice outfit before he headed out for some flowers. He heard about the flower shop beside the cafe he always went to. Funny to him, he had never step foot into it since living together with Hyunjae for the past few months. Luckily, he had a reason to do it now when he entered your flower shop, passing the cafe where he planned to visit before the night ends. He smiled at you at the counter, though he didn’t recognize you. You smiled back when you followed him into the aisle, tapping at his shoulder when he had unknowingly turned away to avoid getting any help. 

Maybe he was shy about getting flowers or entering this shop for the first time but he turned to you, his eyes seeming surprised as he smiled. 

“May I assist you? What is the occasion for?” You asked, hands hiding in the pockets of your apron. 

“I’m looking for flowers for my mother. She’s visiting today, for my birthday.” He giggled with his hands on his back and upper body tilted slightly in shyness. 

You sighed into a smile, a cheery look appearing on your face. “What is her favorite color? We can go with that.” 

“Well, she likes gold.” Changmin tapped his chin, looking at the flowers on the top shelf at your sides subconsciously. You blinked at him until he noticed, eyes widening at you when he gasped. A hand was placed at his lips when he whispered, “Oh my god, there’s no such thing as gold flowers.” 

“Follow me.” You grinned, slightly laughing before you turned around, shaking your head. Changmin followed you, plastering his palm at his face, looking down at his awkward feet. You went behind the counter as he stood in front of it, waiting for you to get a bouquet in shades of white and purple and a touch of blue. They were beautiful, Changmin thought when you brought it out. When you turned away again to grab another one, he couldn’t keep his eyes from you all of a sudden. 

You looked familiar to him as he hissed at himself, eyes slightly squinted until you turned around, setting another bouquet on the counter. That was when he realized, you were the same person from yesterday’s encounter who delivered the flowers for Hyunjae. It might had been your eyes or the shape of your lips. His hand was resting on the edge of the counter as his thumb rubbed onto it. No matter how embarrassing he was from that, he nodded his head slowly. “They look different from that day.” 

You were blinking again as he wondered if you heard him, seeing how your eyes met after how quiet it had gotten. He blinked too, a few times before he smiled widely with his face turning red. 

“Sorry, I was talking to myself.” He laugh was rough, as if he was trying to hide it but his smile was still there. 

“That’s okay, it happens.” You smiled back, holding in your laugh. You actually recognized him too, the moment he came in. It must have been that dimple popping at his cheek. You waved a hand at the flowers. “This bouquet is quite popular for mothers. Would you like to take it? If not, then we do have other colors too.” 

“They’re beautiful.” His eyes sparkled at them in fondness, a grin forming when he looked back at you. “I’ll take it, I think my mom will like them.” 

“Then I’ll ring them up for you.” You grinned too and did the purchase for him after taking his card. 

Changmin looked at the flowers, finally realizing that there were two bouquets there. He didn’t remember needing two as his eyebrows furrowed. “How come there’s two bouquet?” 

You leaned over the counter and whispered to him happily, “Today’s special: buy one get one free. I guess you’re just lucky today.” 

You leaned back to continue with the payment as he became awed at the way your lips beamed. He’d probably fall in love with you if you said it was for his birthday. When you were done, you handed him the two bouquets before he left the place, bidding you a goodbye as the doorbell rang. 

That evening, you took off your apron and set it away behind the counter after you had cleaned up the place a bit. As you gathered your things, holding a closed umbrella in your hand with the change of weather heading your way, Changmin came running in just before you closed the shop with one of the bouquets in his hand. You were shook at how the breeze blew at your face, making you blink. His eyes were sparkling, making your heart race in a short amount of time. 

There was a sly smirk peeking at his lips when he pointed a thumb back to the side, a sweet invitation slipping from them. “Do you want something to drink?” 

You took the offer, now sitting in front of him in the cafe next door after you closed the flower shop. One of the bouquets Changmin bought earlier was set on the table between you both, along with your drinks that you offered to pay since it was his birthday still. 

“So, did your mother like the flowers?” You asked, glancing at the bouquet in front of you. 

“She did, she loved it a lot. It was special to her because she could see how each flowers were hand-picked.” His dimple formed, making you blush a little. 

“That’s great… and kind of funny.” You confessed, a shy giggle coming from your pink lips as you looked down to hide your rosy cheeks.

“Why? What’s so funny?” He asked in confusion. 

“Why did you bring the flowers back? Don’t tell me you want to return it.” You grinned when you met his eyes. Though you couldn’t tell why, it seemed like he was thinking a lot about that answer. His eyes roamed through the table, his lips slightly opened at that question with his head tilting again. 

“It’s because I wanted to give them to you.” He confessed, looking at the flowers before catching your stare. As if your heart has stopped, your eyes widened at him. It wasn’t noticeable but he could tell how surprised you were by the look on your face. He grinned, looking down at his drink. “My mother asked if I had a lover or a crush because of the extra bouquet you offered and I thought it would be okay to give them to you, if that’s okay with you.” 

Even though he was avoiding your eyes, you did the same too with your hands rubbing at each other. 

“I guess you could take them as an apology about the other day when you delivered the flowers for my friend.” Changmin continued, trying to fill in the quiet air. He rubbed his hands at his thighs, his eyes glancing out the window as a small sigh blew from his lips before he took a sip of his drink. It was still hot when he hissed, dropping his cup back onto the table. Luckily, it didn’t spill so you quickly grabbed a napkin nearby and rested it at his chin where a stream of coffee dripped. That happened so fast that his hand was placed over yours, as if he was holding it. 

His hand was warm, just like the absorbed liquid on the napkin. Your heart was shaking when he held onto your hand tighter. You awkwardly smiled, avoiding his eyes this time when you assured him, “It’s fine and I’m also fine, I actually got those flowers for you because you mentioned that it was your birthday.” 

“Y-you did?” His eyes jotted up when you nodded with a sweet smile at your lips. 

“Oh shit, sorry.” You removed your hand from his face before his lips beamed too as you continued. “I mean, you’re welcome. I hope you celebrated it well.” 

“I did.” 

“Is it too rude to ask what you wished for?” You were always curious about the wishes people make for their birthdays, if they came true or not. Whether his did or not, you always had hopes that it would because it makes birthdays a little more special than just a cake. 

“No.” 

“What did you wish for then? Did it come true?” 

“It did.” Changmin smiled, his cheeks turning red when he leaned over the table, teasing a whisper that made your heart race again that night. “It was to meet you again.”
