EXO D.O.: Dish of love
Characters: U x Ksoo   Genre: Chef Ksoo, cooking competition, fluff Description:  You met ksoo at a cooking competition, falling hard and fast for him. But will the both of you end up tgt?  
“Kyungsoo, the leek and onion also needs to go in right?”
You sat across the kitchen counter looking at Kyungsoo — pan in one hand, ready to start the stove… with his (definitely) semi prepared ingredients.
Turning his head, his little confused frown morphed into a silent exclamation when he saw his unchopped onion and leek.
‘Oh right! I forgot’ and you facepalmed yourself on his behalf.
He got right down to it, chopping the onions as skilful as can be. Someone needs to tell you how to stop getting butterflies over that forearm and skilful hands.
Needless to say, being neighbours doesn’t help your feelings tame themselves either. Not sure if it’s a blessing in disguise or just Cupid fooling around with you.
You and kyungsoo met at an overseas mini cooking contest (which is having the semi finals this week) and happened to be partners for a couple of preliminaries. Although kyungsoo was abit shy at first, you guys hit off incredibly well the moment pans and knives fell into both of your hands.
And as the magic of the universe does it, you ended up being neighbours with him after your previous rental ran into some problems.
He’s quiet, endearingly slow-witted, adorably determined and surprisingly full of hidden manly charms. Just mere 8 weeks together was enough for you to fall hard and fast for him.
The semi final of the cooking contest was this week and you, Kyungsoo, Jinki and Mabel were the only ones left in the game. To sharpen your skills ahead of the semi, kyungsoo and you have volunteered to be lab rats for each other. Friendly rivalry~
‘Ok ok, its done, its done. Try it’
You picked a well flavoured looking chicken piece off the plate and savoured it thoughtfully.
‘Kyungsoo if you’re cooking for a friend this taste fantastic. But for a cooking show… its nothing special’ you commented
‘Ahh.. you’re right. I actually came up with this recipe on my own, so i thought…’ he trailed off with a small little pout that did not manage to escape your sight
‘Actually why don’t you try a creamy version…’ and here goes another night of R&D for the both of you.
————————-
‘And you have 15 minutes left!’
The judges shouted above the clanking of pots and slamming of oven doors.
You’re almost done with your dish, except for the pasta which will be cooked in your special sauce.
You quickly grabbed the strained pasta you left aside, but in a split second they were all spilled over on the ground.
‘Omg, I’m so sorry!’ Mabel exclaimed.
‘Why did you have to run!’ you were frustrated and in absolute panic
‘Now what ..’ you started, but kyungsoo who was using the cooking space behind you both interrupted
‘Y/N just get over it, it’s already spilled. There’s no time for you to be upset’
You glared at kyungsoo, easy for you to say.. But he was right anyway, you clenched you teeth and swallowed your rage. What the heck could you do to replace your pasta? You glanced around a magical drop of inspiration and  noticed mabel herself also prepared pasta. Surely she wouldn’t mind giving you some at this critical juncture?  
Mabel caught your eyes and it was as if she heard your thoughts. She reached for her pasta bowl and smiled at you. 
Except that she went on to protectively dumped all her sauce over it. 
WOW.
Someone needs to tell you more about how to pull the hair out of an evil wench. 
In the end kyungsoo offered you his sushi rice which completely didnt go well with the prawns and paste you prepared. And with much anger and disappointment you lost your chance to finals to mabel. Who o-so totally deserves it. 
The moment the judges called for a wrap for today. You took off your apron, and threw it on your table right in the face of mabel. The audacity of her to act like she didn’t see it and ran up to kyungsoo straight and ask to have a taste of his dish. 
You left the kitchen straight to cool off and Jinki followed you out and offered jokes and comfort so you would at least feel better before going for the semi-finals party. 
---------
At the dinner, mabel and kyungsoo sat together, being the stars of the night. You really have nothing against that, only that mabel wasn’t acting quite right ?
You never noticed before, but it does seem pretty obvious now that mabel likes kyungsoo. All the occasional touching and that voice that goes up a few pitches just for him. Wrapping meat for him in lettuce when he didn’t even ask for it. 
It was almost absolutely unbearable to be sitting opposite them. Watching that little thief who just took your podium spot about to steal your guy. Can’t she tell that kyungsoo obviously hates the touching?  But oh gawd, maybe kyungsoo does enjoy the feeding.  
You dunked down 2 shots and tried to ignore those two. 
But the night only got worse. In her tipsy state, mabel very smoothly took the chance to lean herself on kyungsoo. You sucked in a deep breath of annoyance, perhaps sensing you were about to reach your tolerance limit for the day, jinki whispered in your ear to take a breather together outside. 
Without hesitation, you drank a whole mouthful from the bottle before getting up. The amount you drank tonight was enough to make you lose your balance just a little as you stood up. 
‘Ya ya, y/n. Don’t drink so much if you can’t ’ kyungsoo took the soju bottles in front of you away from across the table and his knee-jerk reaction almost shook the leaning-tower-of-Mabel off her seat.  Jinki caught you and you watch kyungsoo catch mabel, to stop her from falling.
You ignored him and thought to yourself ya stay with mabel the whole night then, traitor. And you went out to sit by the bench outside the restaurant with jinki.
‘Honestly, y/n if you like him so much why don’t you just tell him? I think he likes you too.’
Shocked you looked at jinki ‘i was that obvious about liking him??’ 
‘No girl, but the two of you have that couple chemistry. You know what i mean? Everyone has been wondering if the both of you are together. Perhaps that’s why mabel decided to make her move since the both of you aren’t really progressing.’
You sighed and jinki laughed at you, putting his arms over your shoulders.
‘Comeon, its not that tough! just do it tonight y/n, if he says he doesnt like you just blame it on the alcohol and pretend you never said it.’ 
Ok, he has a point. ‘But i dont know how the start , omg.’ 
‘Simple does it. ‘i-like-you’, give it a try. you can look at me and practice now’
Giggling, you looked at jinki, and put on a straight face ‘ i...like you’, but somehow the situation just felt funny and the both of you started laughing. 
‘ah, i dont think i can do it. Anyway i’m gna go home, im tired and not really in the mood to be watching a kdrama inside. Help me tell the rest alright, and thanks for being the best confidant jinki.’
--------
ksoo’s pov
‘ah thank you, you don’t have to wrap it for me’ he gulped down the vegetable wrap and tried to put some space between him and mabel. Mabel’s proximity was making him feel extremely uncomfortable. 
is y/n still affected by what happened in the afternoon? she doesn’t seem to be in a great mood. 
He wanted to give the meat he was grilling to you, but jinki beat him to do it. Was there something on between the both of you ? 
He saw jinki following you out after the competition today. Surely to comfort you. 
Only now did he realize he had been stuck with mabel ever since the competition ended. What a friend he was to not give word of concern at all. 
He can’t help but noticed that you were drinking alot today, frowning, wanting to tell you to slow down but he just kept hesitating about doing it. what a loser kyungsoo.  
While he was trying to adjust mabel’s leaning body on him, he caught, from the corner of his eye, jinki whispering in your ear. He can’t help but turn his head to stare at the both of you. 
The next moment you were both up and you lost your balance. Worried for you he took the bottles away from your area ‘ Ya ya, y/n. Don’t drink so much if you can’t’ 
You gave him such a hateful look it caught him off guard and his eyes travelled to jinki’s hands that were steadying you, on your arm and waist. 
he was sure 10 minutes had passed and the both of you were still not back. strangely anxious, he kept looking over at the restaurant door and wondered where the both of you had gone. he couldn’t wait a minute longer and headed out after ignoring her whining asking him to stay. 
‘i.. like you’ he heard your voice, and just right in front of him the both of you were seated, back facing him. 
he felt his heart drop and immediately turned back into the restaurant. Did he just lose his chance with you? did you really like jinki? was it all in his mind? he thought you liked him too. 
all the thought ran through his head at a speed of 200km/h. he had originally wanted to confess to you after the competition, so there wouldnt be distractions or burdens when the both of you face each other as rivals. 
he slowly sat back down on the table, and poured a shot for himself.
---------
It was past 12am and the door bell rang, who could it be at this hour?
You opened the door to find kyungsoo standing in front of you.
‘Are you okay? You left early without telling me, just wanted to check in on you’
Though you have sobered up a little you are still in no mood for a decent conversion.
‘Yeh I’m fine’ you relied and stared blankly at him
‘Uhm..’ you knew he was searching for something to say as he reached to scratch the back of his head.
‘Okay then rest well, come over I’ll cook you hangover soup tomorrow’
You shared an awkward moment with him by looking at him and simply giving a nod as a reply, and just as he started walking away
‘Do Kyungsoo’
You opened the door and called out, and he turned on his heels taking a step toward you
You felt a rush of adrenaline as you impulsively wanted to do what you’re about to do next. The power of alcohol pumped through your blood like a charge of courage. And without thinking, you pulled right at his jacket’s zipper, closed your eyes and pressed your lips to his.
It lasted a second or two before you pulled away. Your heart beating fast and you bit on your upper lip. What’s going to happen next ?
Stunned. Kyungsoo fumbled backwards just ever so slightly as you let him go. Eyes wide, staring at you, at the air, whatever. And you figured it’s now or never.
‘I like you’
But his expression remained the same and you couldn’t make out what was he thinking. The both of you stood there for maybe 20seconds maybe a minute but it felt like forever right there and then.
Your heart dropped ever so slightly as the adrenaline faded at the moment of uncertainty
‘Whatever Kyungsoo’ you reached to close the door
‘Wait’ his hands are now holding onto the door, opposing your motion he pulled it back open
‘Me ? Not jinki?’ He asked
‘What?’ You blurted out absolutely confused but answered
‘Yes you’
With all seriousness still on his face, Kyungsoo took a step right into your apartment and closed the door behind him.
‘Thank God, y/n’
And before you knew it, with the brightest smile, his hands was on your face pulling you in for a deeper kiss.

EXO D.O.: You & Me. (P10)
For once you were not your talkative self beside him. You were more confused than dreamy about the whole situation. The darkness around the forest made it barely possible for you to see much. But all you wanted to was to look right at the ground hoping for some revelation of answers of any sorts.
‘Why are you so quiet?’ Kyungsoo broke the silence
You literally jumped because you were so out of it. 
‘Uhm.. I thought you would pick Minji sunbae? Why did you choose to do this with me?’
You wanted feel over the moon and have this mini celebration in your mind over the possibility that Kyungsoo actually chose you. Does he like you?
But deep down there’s just this tiny annoying bugging tell you kyungsoo simply has no other intention than just choosing a friend he is comfortable with.
You looked up after a long time and saw the markers put up that the walk is nearing the end.
kyungsoo himself kept quiet and the sound of shoes crushing and crunching the pebbles on the forest track filled that silence perfectly.
After all the chasing around, am I becoming tired now? is that why I’m not really hoping for a possibility of the answer I want anymore?
‘OMO, AH!’ Your careless and uncoordinated self just had to trip over nothing at this moment
‘Ya, be careful, what did you even trip over? That scared me’ kyungsoo quickly grabbed your arm
‘Gumawo’ you threw in a polite laugh and straightened yourself
But Kyungsoo …
Slipped his hands down, to between your fingers.
You swear you stopped breathing for a moment.
And his gripped tightened just so slightly. You swear you heard him let out a suppressed deep breath before saying
‘Y/N, shall we go out?’

Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Char: u x soo

‘Honestly that game was planned for girls to have an advantage so you don’t end up doing this, but i guess you’re just bad at games’ the class rep, joohyuk laughed at you
You continued whining and sulking while tugging the logistics bag. All these misfortune…
As if the fact that minji sunbae was your group leader wasn’t enough. And also the fact that kyungsoo literally gave the lunch you made for him to Minji sunbae. And how they just stuck to each other like glue the whole day. All the scenes played over and over again in your head.
‘Y/N ah, ive been really curious for quite some time now, can i ask? It might sound abit intrusive since we aren’t that close’ 
‘Oh, you have a question for me? Sure! That’s surprising.’ 
‘Is there something between you and woohyun? Or is it between Kyungsoo and you?’
‘What do you mean?? We are all just friends!’ Perplexed by his question
‘I clearly saw you and woohyun holding hands just now! Like near the lake!’
‘Oh please!! That’s just because there were a lot of potholes, he was just helping me so I dont fall in’
‘Oh, really…Then what about you and kyungsoo? He always has his eyes on you you know. At first I thought you were into him too, but nowadays you and woohyun seem pretty tight’
Always has… his eyes on me?
You felt your heart skip a beat. But for once you told yourself not to get your hopes up. Not knowing how to take that information, you kept silent for a while.
Breaking the silence joohyuk suddenly added
‘You know how earlier when we were supposed pair up, I saw him looking at you even before Minji Sunbae asked him to partner. But you agreed to woohyun so fast haha.
And also it wasn’t by chance you got coke alright, kyungsoo actually went to another group that had coke to swap out the Fanta grape for you. I was with him to collect the drinks, they made him dance for it, and he still did it.
It’s hard to believe he doesn’t have a thing for you’
You stopped in your tracks as you heard those unbelievable words ring through your ears.
‘I... I really doubt it.’
After some hesitation, you told joohyuk
‘I keep telling him i like him and keep doing so many things for him but he is just so neutral about everything. i cant even tell what he’s actually feeling on the inside.’ 
Chuckling, joohyuk patted you on your shoulders, 
“Anyway, play along with me later, ill propose we play a game before the confidence walk tonight.’
‘Huh, what, why?’ He winked at you and doubled up his pace, and you chased after him to spill the beans. -------------------
‘Okay, everyone pair up for the confidence walk and tell me your pairs so i can keep track’ Minji sunbae instructed the group and the chatters started again as everyone sat around the bon fire. 
‘Sunbae, why dont we play a game to decide our partners instead? For the whole day most of us have just stuck to our own friends.’ Sungjong asked with a tinge of aegyo and that was enough for everyone to agree, including Minji Sunbae.
‘Let’s do this! We’ll see who can hit the lowest note among us with Do-Re-Mi you’re out if you go out of tune or can’t hit the note. The winners take turns choosing partners!’
WHAT ?!
when you bugged Joohyuk to tell you what he’s about to do tonight, he said he would make sure you and kyungsoo partner tonight!
HOWS THIS GOING TO HELP ME WIN THE GAME?!
There wasn’t even time for you to ask him what’s going on, and the game already started. And as fast as it started, as fast you went out of the game.
Joohyuk that liar, I’m not gna get to pair w kyungsoo…
Giving up hopes on pairing w him now, you watched as the game went on and kyungsoo was actually doing pretty well !
And it wasn’t long before just joohyuk and kyungsoo were left. And, kyungsoo actually won!!
‘Kyungsoo you’re truly a singer’ joohyuk clasp at his throat, fake coughing while giving his praise. And of course Minji Sunbae had to give her smile of approval which you scrunched your face at.
‘Anyway, since Kyungsoo won, you get to choose your partner first’ Minji noona started joyfully and you saw her nudging Kyungsoo a couple times, hinting to be chosen
You saw them exchanging eye contact with each other. Simply can’t bear to watch this, you just decided to look away and play w the fallen twigs instead. Then out of the blue, 
‘I.. I choose Y/N’
————— Is there anyone interested in a D.O. perspective? If there are any reblogs ill write a part from his! Otherwise ill save the effort :D

EXO SUHO: Stealing his Surprise
Characters: reader x junmyeon & exo
Genre:fluff!
Description: junmyeon gets an off day and plans to surprise you on your birthday. But sehun let it slip by accident…
Word Count: 1k
————-
Fiddling with the remote, pressing the replay and next button, you sat on the sofa at Jongin’s place, watching Junmyeon’s fan cam, you just missed him so much.
‘Oh my gawd, noona how many times more are you going to replay that fan cam? I mean first it was EXO ladder you kept watching, now it’s fancams?’
You turned around to Sehun who was sitting at the dining table and gave him the stink eye.
You turn up the volume even louder
‘Oh right btw, are you free next Tuesday?’ Jongin casually asked while keep his eyes glued on his phone.
With that you let out a sigh
‘No, I’m not free’
I’ll be busy sulking at home since myeon is stuck in military camp. It’s my second birthday that we aren’t spending together, sigh
Hearing your inner whiny self in action.
But to your surprise your reply drew an exaggerated reaction from both Sehun and Jongin.
‘Wait what, why aren’t you free?’ Sehun asked at the same time as jongin looked up from his phone and froze in seeming shock
Hella confused at their reactions you frowned at the ‘whats the issue, why must I be free?’
‘Isn’t it your birthday?’ Jongin asked
‘Uh ya, maybe that’s why I’m not free…?
Okay but why would the both of you rmb my birthday, the last I rmb you guys still don’t get the exact birthdays right for all the members’
‘I mean Junmyeon Hyung kept bugging us about it and he even…’ Sehun started but across the living room came a flying cushion straight at his face
‘Junmyeon? What what!?’ It was almost like you could feel your ears shooting up when you heard junmyeon’s name
You caught the 2 boys exchanging looks,
‘Er he told us to celebrate for you cause he thought you were gna be alone’ jongin tried but you can hear that uncertainty in his voice
‘Oh dont even try, if I told you I’m not free shouldn’t you guys be glad I alr made birthday plans.
Comeon spill the beans, both of you reacted as if a major plan got destroyed.’ You raised your brows and knew you got the upper hand by now.
‘Okay fine, Hyung actually managed to take an off in your birthday and wanted us to help him surprised you.’ Pinching his forehead and avoiding eye contact, sehun came clean
Pleasantly surprised as you were, a cheeky idea came to you
Time to steal his surprise
——————————
Hushing both Sehun and jongin, you dropped the bomb on Junmyeon on the day of your birthday
Text:
I’m going out to celebrate my birthday today. There’s a close friend who happen to be in the vicinity! Fighting, woori junmyeonie!
On junmyeon’s side
Panic shot through his entire nervous system upon receiving your text. He dropped the decorations he was putting up in his room and immediately dialled for sehun, but no one picked up. Trying for jongin, the call didn’t even go through.
Groaning, he thought to himself
Those boys will be the death of me, what am I supposed to do now with the cake and food I bought already ?
Trying his best to make it sound casual and still trying his best to make his surprise work, he replied you
Oh really? Enjoy yourself, but what about Sehun and Jongin? I thought they asked you out at first?
But there was no reply from you even after half an hour has passed. He sat, leaning against the corner wall of his bed, staring at his phone praying it would light up.
His inner monologue rambled on and on
This just sucks.. I miss her so much and even planned all this… maybe I should have been honest rather than trying to plan this surprise.. might not even get to see her before I go back in tomorrow.. I should just drop off her cake ton..
He was so deep in his thoughts that a sudden knock on his room door sounded aggressively loud. Jolted, he replied, annoyed, ‘wae’
The knocking continued, which levelled up his frustration. Dragging himself towards the door, he pulled open with more force than needed and was greeted with a force sending him backwards.
You threw yourself around him.
‘Junmyeon!!!!’ You shouted as you clung onto his neck.
As usual, a little slow on the uptake bout what’s happening, he didn’t even react to return the hug.
Pulling away, you laughed at his blank expression as he stuttered
‘Why.. what are you… what’s going on?’
‘Surprise! Where’s my cake? And what’s with the ‘H A P P’ on the wall and those balloons’
‘Uh.. cake.. it’s in the fridge’ he scratched his head and answered
Pulling him into the kitchen, he finally returned to his senses
‘Ya, Y/N what’s going on? Arent u supposed to be w your friends? How did you get into my apartment?’
You pecked a sudden light kiss on his lips to shut him up w his questions, which seemed to do the work. And pulled out the cake from the fridge.
‘Wait wait, it’s your birthday, let me set up the cake for you, you better tell me all about it later’
Taking over, he set up the cake and candles and sang you the birthday song.
‘Okay, make a wish!’
‘There’s no wish junmyeonie, you already fulfilled it!’
‘What y/n, stop shocking me today. I dont even know how to feel right now, I planned all these things to surprised you cause it’s your birthday but u ended up surprising me instead. Oh my, I dont even know if I should be feeling sad or happy about this…’ and on and on he goes
‘But myeon, having fun surprising you is actually my birthday wish’
Looking at you and processing what you said, he held his smile in with his lips pursed together.
Hugging you tight, he whispered tenderly into your ears
‘What do I do with you?’

Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
//fast forward to second year of high school//
‘yaaa, woohyun ah, why can’t you take the back seat instead? It’s not like you attend class as often as us....’ you pulled at woohyun’s sleeves, trying to annoy him out of his place beside you
he motioned you to come closer to him with his fingers and whispered in your ear ‘too bad, not going to play cupid for you’ 
and gave you such a devilish smile you wondered if satan took him in as his disciple 
It’s a new academic year and fortunately, kyungsoo was no longer an aisle away from you. But was unfortunately not beside you either. Oh wells, at least he would be sitting behind you. 
Your new homeroom teacher entered and kyungsoo doubled up from behind him as he returned from the toilet. 
Forcing a deliberate cough before starting his welcome speech, your homeroom teacher looked a little annoyed 
‘welcome back year 2s, it’s the first day of school and i normally have monday blues. so i’m warning you not to trigger me on mondays’
and he scanned his eyes across the room 
‘i’m Teacher Kim and i’ll be teaching you history. Before i go, there’s an announcement i need to make that possibly will brighten your monday. 
The school’s anniversary is next week and we are all going for 2 Day 1 Night field trip.
That’s all. ’
Cheers erupted as soon as teacher kim had his foot out of the class.
Oh yes ! You simply couldn’t wait!!
———
//day of trip//
Today, the special day. So special you actually specifically told Kyungsoo yesterday that you wont be going school with him this morning!
Of course he didn’t ask why... But everyone was asked to prepare their own lunch since the journey to the campsite will be rather long. So you decided to preparing an additional kimbap and potato pancake for kyungsoo.
Over the holidays, you discovered you actually had a magical flair in culinary bestowed upon you. It’s not fantastic but you just picked up cooking tasty dishes much faster than you did for any other thing in life.
Humming away, you cheerfully packed yours and kyungsoo’s lunch into your bag. And rushed to school to make it just before the assembly time at 9am.
———-
Amidst the excited chatters, Teacher Kim called for everyone’s attention
‘Everyone listen up, for this field trip, we will split the class into 2 groups for activities. Every group will have a year 3 senior attached.
I’ll let you guys know which group you are in when you board the bus’
‘It’s gna be fun if the 3 of us get to be tgt, I hope we won’t be separated’ woohyun remarked casually
When you heard that announcement, you can’t help but feel that the heavens must be making a fool out of you
How is it that everytime your ideal plans with kyungsoo always gets thwart..
You smiled back stiffly at woohyun, anxiously praying and pleading, ‘jaebal’ as it got to the 3 of your turn to board.
‘Y/N group 2, woohyun group 2, kyungsoo….’
And you couldn’t hear what kyungsoo’s group was because woohyun kept pushing you to move in.
‘Ya woohyun, stop it’ irritated at his pushing, you tried looked back, wanting to ask kyungsoo what group he’s in.
‘Ok, then stop blocking the way and move in or take a seat. Over here there’s 2 empty spaces, we can sit tgt’ and he quickly settled, tapping on the chair beside for you to sit beside him.
As soon as woohyun, this human barricade between you and Kyungsoo is removed, you eagerly asked kyungsoo
‘Which group ? 2?’ Eyes widening in anticipation and hope
‘Uh yes’
‘Nice! Now we can all have fun tgt’ woohyun added from the side where he sat
‘Kyungsoo you can sit here’ pointing to the seat infront of him
You looked around quickly hoping to find another pair of empty seats, but all by this time only had a single seat left. You had no choice but to do as woohyun suggested
Just as you were wondering who’s in the front seat, a sweet, feminine, ((threateningly)) unfamiliar voice called kyungsoo’s name
‘Kyungsoo ah! What a coincidence! I’m the senior leading for this class, group 2!’
You popped your head over from your seat
‘Ah minji noona, what a surprise!’

EXO D.O.: You & Me. (P7)
just a short chapter for a two-person u x ksoo time! no plot progression in this:( hope it goes faster soon
Series page
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
“Ban ban chicken set! Enjoy your meal”
Before the waitress could even lay the glorious plate of chicken on the table, its mouth-watering aroma invaded your nostrils mercilessly. Though, that was very much welcomed.
Perhaps kyungsoo felt slightly obligated to give a celebratory speech before digging in, he awkwardly went
‘Uh, thanks for coming, today. Let’s eat’
Famished, you reached out for the drumstick without second thoughts.
But with immediate regrets.
You dropped the chicken as if they were burning coals and gripped tightly onto the cold beverage cup.
‘Ah!Ouch!’
Startled at your exclamation, kyungsoo stared at you for a good few seconds before cracking into a low chuckle.
‘This isn’t chicken delivery you know, the chicken is bound to be hot’ kyungsoo said as he gave the chicken stuck on his fork already, to you.
Returning a sheepish grin to him, you wisely utilised the fork this time round.
‘mmmmm. The chicken here is so juicy!’ you licked your lips after gobbled down your third piece.
Sipping the drink, the taste that greeted your tongue was not what you expected. Holding the drink out with a frown on your face, you asked
‘kyungsoo, what did you order? It doesn’t taste like cola’
‘I ordered 2 cola though, open the cap and check it?’ looking confused as you were
Pulling open the lid, you scrunched your face in disgust
‘ew kyungsoo, it’s fanta grape, I hate this’
‘ah, the waitress must have got it wrong. take mine instead'
Your heart skipped a beat.
did kyungsoo just... offer to swap his with mine..?
Looking at your finished chicken, it suddenly occurred to you
and he actually helped to take a piece of chicken for me just now...
it's not that kyungsoo wasn't kind but he was rarely this courteous to his friends. kyungsoo sure has ways to send you massively overthinking 
You must blanked out for quite awhile, because kyungsoo stuttered a little as he added
'uh, erm, if you're worried about the uh straw we can just switch them out' pushing his cup over to you
Not even trying to contain how happy you were, you quickly exchanged the drinks and sipped through his straw.
indirect kiss!
'thank you' in seventh heaven, you can't help but smile foolishly to yourself for the rest of the meal
---
Leaving the restaurant after using the washroom, you saw kyungsoo outside, speaking with a woman who seem to be in her 20s, holding a small piece of white paper in her hands.
who's that?
Hastening your pace to reach them quickly, you saw kyungsoo slide the paper into his jeans pocket, and bowed politely to the woman as she took her leave.
'who's that?' you probed
'uh, one of the event organisers, let’s go home' 
you raised your brows thinking, kyungsoo seems to be hiding something: aka that white paper that was given to him. 
'what did she..' 
interrupting you unintentionally or not, kyungsoo caught you off guard by asking
‘shall i hold the boards for you?’ 
you had an internal conflict for a moment, externally processing itself
‘oh no it’s fine, i can hold them! it’s would be troublesome for you to hold them too. 
Actually, no, wait -- help me please~~ i’m having a hard time with this broken shopper bag’ and you acted as if you would drop the boards anytime 
Though knowing you were just exaggerating, he laughed at your cheekiness and took both boards from you.
‘Y/N ah’ he called out and stopped walking, the two of you facing each other as he held your gaze
‘it was a really small competition, but gumawo, jinja, for doing all these boards.’ breaking the eye contact quickly once he said his words, he walked ahead quickly without you 
And you decided to do the craziest thing 
‘KYUNGSOO AH!! JOH-A-HAE!!! (i like you)’ 
You shouted at the top of your lungs, and kyungsoo turned back looking as like he was about to hit you with the boards 
Though not today, but one day, you will be his girlfriend, and you ran towards him with that thought
----------
Barely a day to go?! 🙈 hope ksoo does Vlive ((though it’s kinda a fat hope thing, sigh))

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P6)
Series page
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
——
Standing in front of your mirror, you pulled at your floral skirt. This was at least the 10th set of clothes you’ve tried but you still felt awkward and unsatisfied with it.
Today was D-day, the day of kyungsoo’s competition and you wanted to look your best because you have already imagined the winning scenario many times. You giggled, heart fluttering.
You looked up at your wall clock, you were going to run late if this keeps up. You looked into your wardrobe one more time and decided it would be overalls for today.
Changing again, you didn’t even have time to put proper make up. Lipstick and brows was all you could manage. In a rush you patted some blusher on which by mistake turned you into a red lobster.
You panicked but there was simply no time to salvage it and out of the house you went.
When you arrived, the competition had already started. A make shift stage was set up by the streets with tentage and chairs. You spotted woohyun who had arrived before you and quickly took your seat beside him.
From your shopper bag you pulled out a black board
‘Ya y/n what the hell is this? And is it that hot that your cheeks are so red?’
You touched your face self consciously, but okay that’s not what’s important now
‘Woohyun ah, we need to show our support for kyungsoo! I spent all night doing it, see it writes do kyungsoo youre the best ’
Passing him the first board, you pulled another one from your bag again
‘This is yours ~ kyungsoo saranghae. I even brought whistles we can use to cheer when he wins later!’
Shooting you a revolting face woohyun lowered his voice and spoke through his teeth
‘There’s no one holding anything up!I’m not doing this with you, please keep your whistles for your own personal concert with Kyungsoo’
Punching woohyun for being such a traitor that cares more about his pride than his friend, you decided to hold both boards up yourself.
To prepare for this competition, Kyungsoo went to the jam studio almost daily. It wasn’t like the band has practice everyday, it was kyungsoo who just wanted to practice as much as he can.
One would think you would at least have heard him once through the past few months, but you weren’t even close to hearing him sing a clear syllable.
When he went on his own, you always asked for him to let you in to hear him sing, but he just wouldn’t. He would push you out of the room and lock it. Sometimes on your way to school you would poke at him and ask him to sing too, but he downright did not want to sing for you and told you you could hear it during the competition.
The only times you heard was when you secretly waited outside the jam band club room that has walls so thick you could only hear his suppressed and muffled voice. You only knew one thing for sure, it was an English song he was preparing, because you didn’t understand a single thing.
Up next was kyungsoo’s turn, the emcee gave an enthusiastic introduction of Kyungsoo
‘...without further ado, let us welcome Do Kyungsoo Ssi who will be bringing Just The Way You Are by Bruno Mars!’
You raised your boards and cheered at the top of your lungs, while the rest of the audience clapped as Kyungsoo entered the stage.
‘Ya y/n I can’t even see Kyungsoo like this!’ Equally excited to see the performance, woohyun irritatedly took the board blocking his view for himself instead.
You were bubbling with excitement and were a stomach of nerves as you waited to hear Kyungsoo sing for the first time, the song he probably spent days and nights practicing the past few months.
The backtrack played through the speakers and kyungsoo’s voice followed shortly.
A captivating 3 minutes came and passed like that, how you wish you could record that beautiful voice of his and hit it on replay anytime.
At the end of the song, you stood up clapping and shouting your cheers for kyungsoo.
‘Ya ya, sit down! Everyone’s looking at you’ Woohyun covered his face and pulled you back down to your seat.
‘Didn’t he sing really well!! Woori kyungsoo is bound to win this!’
After another half an hour of suffering under the wrath of the weather,listening to other contestants that can’t hold a candle to Kyungsoo, the moment of judgment was finally here.
The list of winners came to the hands of the emcee. And as if it was a dream the emcee announced ‘and our winner is do kyungsoo!’
You screamed and clapped wildly until the emcee finished off with his closing speech for the competition.
As soon as kyungsoo got off the stage, you ran towards kyungsoo ready to embrace him in a hug, ready to hear him thank you for the support board you made and last of all to take a sweet picture together.
'KYUNGSOO! CHUKAHAE!!' Opening your arms you yelled
Seeing you approach him, kyungsoo laughed but dodged your hug
'Ya, gomawo. But don't hug me' He wore a smile as bright as the sun, but pushed your hands away.
'kyungsoo ah, chukahae. you sang so well, you could totally be a singer already. i'll be bragging wherever i go about you, just incase you really become famous and deny knowing me' woohyun joked and gave kyungsoo a punch on his shoulder
'thanks for coming today! have you guys eaten? want to grab a meal together?' you could tell kyungsoo was on cloud nine about his win
'sure! fried chicken?' you eagerly agreed
'ah, i actually got to go for my training now, can't join the both of you.' woohyun sighed
'i'll get going first, see you guys back in school' and he bade goodbye to you guys
On the way to the restaurant you went on and on about how nice he sounded until he suddenly stopped you to ask
'y/n ah, whats the thing you were holding earlier when i was singing? i wore my specs today but i really couldn't tell what you were holding'
'HUH? WHAT? IT'S A BOARD I MADE TO SUPPORT YOU!' Bewildered that he didn't see it even with his specs, you quickly pulled out the boards you made.
Then kyungsoo burst into laughter and gave you a flick on your head
'you held it upside down, no wonder i couldn't tell'
You stopped in your tracks and almost dropped the boards; feeling embarrassed and annoyed altogether at yourself that your efforts had gone to waste.
>>>>>>>
🥲the solo’s cmg end of this month!! Really can’t wait to hear all he has to share with us.
🥲have written ahead for this series but struggling to continue(?) hope there wouldn’t be anyone who would be disappointed if I stop😅

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P5)
Series page
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
——
This was the third day since the incident, and you still haven’t had a proper conversation with Kyungsoo. Which was quite a feat considering your inner desire to talk to him was naturally overwhelming.
Your resolve to continue this was fading though. You had thought to yourself multiple times that Kyungsoo is somewhat clueless about the root of this cold war and it’s kinda unfair to him? But the fact that he made you wait for 20min.. he should know to apologise for that at least ..
Yet, honest to your heart, you were denying any opportunities for him to do so. So.... this situation was just really annoying.
But today woohyun was going to leave for his competition before lunch break, meaning it’s just you and Kyungsoo together.
You would give him a chance today.
It was physical education period when woohyun had to go. And as a very supportive tablemate, from your pocket you took out a snickers chocolate bar
‘Woohyunie hwaiting! If you win this would be your prize from me, if you lose this will be your comfort food instead’ you patted him on the shoulder
‘Thanks y/n-ie! Don’t die at PE, can’t save you today’ swinging his duffel across his body, he parted ways with you as you head for the arena.
Man, it better not be mixed gender activity today… Apart from woohyun, not a single soul would partner with you because your hands and feet have absolutely no coordination.
Only Woohyun didn’t mind pairing together
Almost missing your table mate already.
‘Kids, it’s dodgeball today. Hurry pair up, a girl and a guy. You know the rules, only when the girl gets hit it’s an out’ your teacher shouted across the arena and rolled the balls into the court
Everyone hustled to get a pair, you asked around anxiously but the guys either avoided you like a plague or they already grabbed a partner.
A hopeful tap on your shoulder suddenly got turning around elatedly only to come face to face with Kyungsoo
Surprised, panic, awkward, you drop your gaze quickly
‘Y/N.. do you want to pair up?’
You looked around and realised almost everyone had a pair already. You bit your lips and simply just nodded at Kyungsoo.
Standing side by side with him made your heart beat erratically. You could even feel your palms sweating already.
The moment your teacher blew the whistle, you hid behind kyungsoo, and tried your best to avoid getting hit. But your reaction was so slow Kyungsoo had to cover you multiple times to aid you running away.
‘Y/N hold my shirt and just follow me, it’s easier for you to not get hit.’
In the natural human instinct of not wanting to get hit, you grabbed onto his shirt tightly and followed his movements.
The playing area was crowded and balls were flying around from everywhere. The girls were shouting as the boys attacked aggressively.
And right this instance, you were about to be a victim of this dodgeball attack.
Crashing into the weightlifter in your class, trying to avoid that ball, you were sent flying out of the playing area instead.
Kyungsoo rushed to your side and you could frantic apologies and some other voices asking if you were ok. But you were in a state of confusion after hitting your head
‘Sir I’ll bring her to the sick bay’ Kyungsoo put you on his back and brought you to the medic. Still feeling giddy, you leaned against him, feeling his uneven breathing as he increased his pace.
Opening the door to the sickbay , the school nurse was nowhere to be seen. Kyungsoo quickly checked the roster pasted on the wall.
‘Aish, the school nurse took an urgent leave today. Y/N are you feeling alright?’ He put you down to sit on the bed.
‘Yeh..’ you answered weakly, ‘it’s probably just shock from the impact of hitting the bench.’
After sitting and resting silently for some time, you felt slightly recovered
‘I’m fine now, you can go off first.’ Not wanting him to miss out on the fun during PE
‘It’s okay, I’ll stay here with you’ the both of you locked eyes. And for a while there was some tension in the air. But the way he looked at you.. you felt heat in your cheeks
Gosh, y/n! Stop being so embarrassing!
Pulling your legs closer to your chest, you hid your face
‘Mi an hae... about that day I didn’t return to the vending machine. I’ve been wanting to apologise but you kept avoiding me ’ Kyungsoo broke the silence with his apology
Seeing that you have no intentions of acknowledging his apology as you continue holding that position of yours, he went on hesitantly
‘Is there, is there.. something else you’re upset about?
I really cant figure out why you’re having a Cold War with me apart from that’
Looking up, you rolled your eyes before turning to face him
‘why didn’t you come back down that day?’
You saw Kyungsoo visibly hold his breath for a moment as you finished your question.
Exhaling, he explained
‘Y/N I’m really sorry I forgot about you that day. I met a noona I came to know from a singing competition last time, I didn’t know she was in this school. So we chatted and ..’
You cut him off not letting him finish
‘And you leave your friend behind for a pretty noona?’ Feeling absolutely triggered you took the pillow from the bed and threw it at Kyungsoo.
‘YA!can you hear me out!’ He caught the pillow and raised his voice slightly
You stayed silent and let him go on
He paused for awhile, somewhat hesitant to continue
‘Y/N I have a singing competition coming up soon actually ..’ He paused again and looked at you, this time he really got your attention.
You knew kyungsoo had the heart of a performer since young, hearing this you couldn’t even hold back yourself from asking
‘When is it! Can I go too?I’ll support you’ instantly forgetting about the argument that was going on
A little shocked at your sudden change in attitude, Kyungsoo took a while to respond
‘Erm I’ll tell you more about that later. But anyway, minji noona was telling me about the Jam Band club in this school and told me to join them to practice. So I asked her to showed me where the club room was, then I remembered about you only then.. I’m really sorry anyway’
‘Oh, then show me the jam band room!’ Nothing interests you more than what Kyungsoo does, nothing matters more now
‘You’re fine now ?’ A small smile showed on kyungsoo’s confused face
You thought about it for a while
‘Yeh, except that you told minji nim first about your singing competition’ you said seriously
At which Kyungsoo threw the pillow back at you
‘Let’s go, I’ll show you the band room’

EXO Baekhyun: Speedpost!
Tumblr media
(while i've been having fun with all these drawings in my past few posts, i must admit i almost puked when i looked at this one as i was uploading today. for the sake of our eyes will nicely put a stop to this soon :,D)
Char: baek x u Genre: military baek, fluff!, needy (?) reader Description: you thought you could do just fine with baek in the military, but it seems like you actually need him a little more than you think Word Count: 1.3k Track for feels: Avril Lavigne, Wish you were here
You honestly thought you were the kind of strong and independent girlfriend. The kind that would do absolutely fine when your boyfriend enlists.
But truth be told, you barely scrape past this week, and it has only been a week since baek enlisted. Doubts, doubts. Could you even hold it together for another 2 more weeks? You remember just the day before baekhyun's enlistment, he deliberately teased you with fake sobbings,
'babe, will you cry if i'm not around? you might miss me so much it's too much for you to bear right? if you..'
you simply scoffed and cut him off
'ya, byun baekhyun, i'm afraid i would have to disappoint you. i am very much a busy and independent woman. i will do just fine with you enlisting. plus we will probably get to call once in a while, i can live with that'
you smugly folded your arms, sending an attack to his ego
In hindsight, the attack went out like a boomerang and came right back at you. You can already imagine baekhyun playfully gloating
'Strong independent woman, jagiya?'
Perhaps it might all be better if a wreck package hadn't self-invited itself to your life this week.
First of all, your boss decided it was a good idea to throw your proposal back in your face. Next, your very considerate across-the-globe client planned a conference call close to sleeping time in korea. As if it all couldn’t be worse, you overheard a juicy conversation your colleagues were having about you in the washroom.
All these just made you want to run right to baekhyun. To lie on his lap, throw punches at him and hear him flame your life perpetrators with the most nonsensical phrases.
During the day, all you looked forward to was your phonecalls with baek. But who knew even a phonecall date would be as hard to fulfil as climbing mount Everest.
Apart from the first day, every other day the past week was met full of hiccups. Either you were caught up with conference calls and work, or baek was cutting too close to lights out for a long call.
You call it baek crumbs, yes you were surviving on baek crumbs.
There was still sometime left before your phonecall date tonight. You yanked open your refrigerator in search of your alternative destress mechanism -- chocolates. You sighed at your depleting chocolate stash, physically indicating how badly you needed baek.
Back on the sofa, you swallowed down Freddo and you plugged in your earphones like an emo teen, randomly choosing a song radio to play.
As if Siri heard your inner thoughts, the radio chose to play Avril Lavinge's Wish You Were Here. Before you know it, you were a crying mess.
It's not even like you guys were breaking up, but the lyrics were literally stabbing into your heart But right now i wish you were here.... Damn, what i'd do to have you here ...
You were pathetically brawling away when baekhyun's call came in. Suppressing your heavy sobbing, you picked up the phone after a couple of rings at this untimely moment.
'Jagiya, i've 15minutes today! How have you been? You wouldn't believe what happen today! Jagi? Are you there?' His animated voice died down and he held a pause.
'Are you crying? y/n why are you crying? what happened?' you hear a hint of panic in his voice
Baekhyun was fast at catching on things, your quietness, shakey breathes and suppressed hitches were more than enough to indicate a red flag to him.
You had intended for tonight's call to be a fun and not your emotional health hotline help. Taking a deep breath, you tried to put up a front, and with your most stable voice, replied him
'ya, what crying? so what happened with you today?'
'ya, stop bullshitting me. you're crying, what's up with you?' turning all serious, he wasn't going to let you dodge this
you bit down hard on your lip, you couldn't get a syllable out of your throat, afraid the moment you did so you would break down completely.
'damn it, i would totally break the law just to bring a camera phone in so you cannot hide your face from me. tell me please?' he sounded urgent and frustrated, but gentle in asking you to tell him
'baekhyun ah, i can't do this anymore. i thought i could, but why is it so difficult' your voice cracked and you burst into hot tears
'i haa-d such a bad week and i just want..want.. to tell you about it every night. but our time together is always so short that by the time it got to my turn to tell you about my day.........the call ends. and.. and.. i don't know..... what to do about all these on my own..with--without you' you were wailing and possibly incomprehensible by now
'ya..y/n-ie, mi an hae. jeongmal mi an. i just realised i hadn't even heard about how your day went this entire week. i always got so carried away telling you about me, i wasn’t considerate enough.'
Almost running out of tears, you regain your composure quickly
‘Jagi, I’m not blaming you. Please don’t take it that way, it’s just.. I really wish you were around.’
The call suddenly went silent on the other sides, then you heard some low shouts in the background
‘Baekhyunie?’ You guess it was probably an early roll call again
A few moments later, baekhyun was back on the call.
‘Jagi, I’m sorry, I’ll probably have to go soon, the sergeant’s checking my barracks next.
Anyway, I actually had something I wanted to give you the night before I enlisted, but you insisted you were an independent and busy woman....’
His sentence was left broken with a sudden series of clattering like his phone had dropped. You heard louder shouts this time round, then a hurried whisper from Baekhyun
‘Jagi, check the right drawer under your table alright. I got to go now, mi an.’
‘Ah, okay.. saranghae’ and the call was dropped.
You know it was beyond Baekhyun’s control when he had to end the call. But it still didn’t stop you from feeling down at the abrupt goodbye.
Forcing a smile on your face for the sake of your own, you went to your table as baekhyun had told you.
Right drawer under the table?
Pulling open the drawer to find a floral patterned metallic box.
Was baek referring to this?
Popping open the metal box you gasp at the contents scattered within. With a hand over your mouth, you could feel your eyes welling up with tears again.
Chocolates. Lots of chocolates. Fanciful chocolates. Notes... byun baekhyun actually wrote notes for you?
He never once made you cards no matter how hard you ‘jaebal’ for him to. He would just say
‘Too difficult’
‘Too bothersome’
‘Suck at handicraft’
You pulled out the longest note in the entire box and couldn’t help but chuckle when you saw his scrawls
Annyeong Jagi! I bet you would choose this to read first cause it’s the longest. Did I guess it right?ㅋㅋ i wrote a letter to my beloved EXO-Ls, and I thought, how could I not leave you with one? Y/N, you see the chocolates in this box? I went to the candy store that day and picked them individually for you. Because I’m not around, I thought you might need them more. If you have a hard time when I’m away, take a chocolate and a note, enjoy them and think about me. Thank you for waiting, nae sarang, very soon I’ll be with you again. ^^
On the table, your phone vibrated and your screen lit up.
A msg from baekhyun:
Found my speedpost? Saranghae, wool ji ma(dont cry). Let’s call again tmr, goodnight!
You were smiling and crying like a fool by now. With a vision blurred by your tears, you typed a reply
Ya byun Baekhyun. Gumawo.... saranghae
Surely, you must have saved a nation your past life for you to meet byun baekhyun.
———
I was watching EXO arcade and this super random thought came to mind, do yall think their new album concept actually came from EXO arcade?
Like maybe they had been planning a season 2 all along and a new album. But they couldn’t think of a concept, so tada! Arcade, games! For their album concept~ Is there any talk like this circulating, hahah, hope I’m not late to the party then.

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P4)
Tumblr media
Series Page
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
Word Count:1.2k
You slept through your alarm that rang at 6am. Your brain cells were overworked yesterday night, as you thought about what you saw.
Just as the brightness of the sun cast through your room window, your mum came banging on your door to wake you up.
Without Kyungsoo to go school with... Your motivation to get up was almost zero. You unwillingly got out of bed and trudged your way to the bathroom.
By this time, you normally would already be waiting by kyungsoo’s gate. But not today .. You didn’t know if you wanted to see him or not.
Who’s that girl? He left me alone for 20 minutes... he didn’t even think about me who’s waiting there right?
Feeling down, you didn’t even eat your breakfast. Taking the sandwich on the table you left home.
On your way down, you suddenly thought
would Kyungsoo be waiting for me downstairs? What should I say if I saw him? Should I just walk pass him?
Exiting your apartment, you searched around for kyungsoo. But like another stab to your heart, he didn’t wait for you.
In even more of a mood now, you headed to school alone.
-
‘Y/N~~ why so late today? Where’s kyungie? Don’t you guys always come to school together?’
Coincidentally meeting woohyun at the school gate, he chirpily asked
‘Ah.. i overslept..’ you could barely even make a smile in your reply
He stopped walking and pulled you to a halt, taking a close up look at your face.
‘Ya, did you really oversleep or have you been ditched by him? Do you want me to give him a kick’ he asked half seriously and jokingly.
Feeling annoyed, you pushed him away, ‘it’s a long story.. don’t ask’
‘Damn , I knew there’s more than it meets the eye. Cheer up, you’ve got me to spice up your day’ he put his arms over you and walked into class together.
Passing by Kyungsoo to get to your seat, you could feel his eyes following you. Without greeting him or acknowledging him, you sat down and started pulling out your notebooks.
From the side of your eye, you could see him switching between looking at his notes and at you.
Did he have something to say? I’m not going to talk to you first, kyungsoo.
‘Y/N..’ just as he finally called out to you, your class monitor called for the class’s attention to greet the teacher.
Making no effort to follow up on what he wanted to say, you pretended to pay attention to whatever the teacher was saying.
Kyungsoo himself held tightly onto the ‘no talking during class’ rule, so he didn’t continue the conversation he wanted to make either.
When break time finally came, you can’t help but still felt awkward with Kyungsoo. You didn’t really want to hang out with him with now, with yesterday’s incident still a fresh wound.
‘Woots! Cafeteria let’s go let’s go!’ Woohyun got up excitedly
But you remained in your seat and looked up at him
‘You guys go ahead, I still have my breakfast with me. I’ll stay in class’
Woohyun looked behind you, where you Kyungsoo was, seeming to understand you were trying to avoid him
‘Y/N are you ...’ Kyungsoo started but was cut off by woohyun
‘Okay then, we will go ahead without you’
Once again, Kyungsoo held back his words. But from the corner of your eye, you saw kyungsoo’s shuffling his feet. Was he unsure whether to go or not?
‘Tell me if you need anything’ woohyun leaned across to your table to tell you. You ruffled his hair and smiled, showing that you appreciate him.
Whatever it was, he ended up leaving you in the classroom to eat your already cold sandwich, without a word.
-
When you came back from the toilet, Kyungsoo and woohyun were already back from the cafeteria.
‘Got sipping yoghurt for you and melon pan, just incase you faint from being hungry’ woohyun pointed at the snacks on your desk just as you sat down.
‘Omo, woori woohyunie is really the best!’
‘Of course, but give me something in return’ he shot you a flirty look
His suggestive looks made you go off tangent on your thinking right away.
‘Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?!’ You exclaimed in shock. The entire class’s attention was now on the both of you
Woohyun quickly covered your mouth and pulled you out of the class, you make a grab for your yoghurt as he dragged you.
‘Ya! Are you crazy ?! Why would I ask you to be my girlfriend?’ the both of you were now at the corridor
‘how would I know.. ? You looked like it alright ! Plus I mean you’re always so nice to me...’ you innocently said
Flicking your forehead he clarified
‘I just wanted to know what happened between the both of you. Kyungsoo either doesn't want to say it or seems to have no clue what’s going on.’
‘Oh that... yesterday while we were studying, we went to buy some drinks from the vending machine. Then..’
You couldn’t bear to say the words out
‘Then what? You confessed your love or something?’
Woohyun eagerly probe
‘We forgot our wallets, so he was supposed to go back up to take it.
But he left me there waiting for 20minutes while he spoke to some pretty noona’
Your heart was heavy just thinking about that. But Woohyun burst out laughing instead
‘I thought it was something really serious you know, y/n, like something that could tear our friendship . But this ...’ and he continued laughing
‘Ya... I’m just sad about this cause I felt abandoned okay... can’t you understand’
Stifling his laughter, he tried his best to comfort you
‘Alright, I know. Like you aren’t important enough for him to remember you are waiting there.
Don’t think too much about it y/n, you know Kyungsoo doesn’t casually hit anyone up or entertain people. It’s probably something significant ok?’
Though his words didn’t really get to you, you were still thankful, till he added
‘But... y/n ah Kyungsoo is still a high school boy. I think pretty noonas are still part of our interests compared to......’
He deliberately scanned his eyes up then down at you.
You got what he was trying to get at and threw a punch at him which evolved into a childish fight.
As if the timing couldn’t be better, Kyungsoo came out of the classroom door and caught sight of the both of you tangled in a ‘fight’.
His eyes widened just slightly, and he visibly swallowed.
‘The class monitor’s looking for the both of you to hand in your work before the next period’
His voice suddenly changed to the voice he use when he felt awkward with new people. Without making eye contact with either of you, he hurriedly turned on his heels.
Internally face palming yourself a thousand times, you whined
‘Woohyun ah, it’s so awkward now! What excuse should I give to not go home with him today?’ You were in a dilemma. You caused this awkwardness but it feels like you were more scared than him at this persisting situation
‘No worries y/n, he’s got something after school today. I’ll get you snacks you missed out on yesterday ok? Let’s go back to class now’
Entering the class, you caught kyungsoo’s eyes turn away from the back door that instance.
Somehow..
You had this feeling that he had been looking at it for a long time.
Or maybe you were hoping he was

EXO XIUMIN: A ride to sunset
Tumblr media
Characters: minseok x u & chanyeol/kai Genre: fluff, a lil jealous?, jeju retreat! Description: a sweet cycling date with xiumin! and... the boys? Word Count:1.8k A/N: Did you guys see his bubble message!! Here we go!>>>> ------
You didn't want to get up.
Rolling around the bed and making all sorts of whiny noises, you just wanted to stay tucked under the blanket. But minseok has ruthlessly pulled the hotel room curtains open after walking out of the shower.
'jagiya, get up and look at this view, it's so beautiful!no wonder people take retreats at jeju do' he looked out of the glass window and was smiling with childlike excitement
Groaning, you complained
'oppa... the drive was so long yesterday.. i wanna sleep in more, stop bothering me' you half opened your eyes, looking at him look back at you; with an expression that tells you you're about to be denied from your request.
'it's almost lunchtime y/n. too bad, you're getting up to eat with me because it's the only time we can have together today. you can sleep all you want later when i cycle with yeol and jongin.'
He let down the curtains again and stepped towards the bed. Gently he sat down beside you and gave a kiss to your forehead.
'Get up jagi'
Minseok pulled the blankets off you and tried pulling at your hands to get you up. But you acted like a deadweight, refusing to exert a single strength to wake up.
'ya, don't make me do it y/n, you will regret it' minseok warned
But before your barely conscious mind could even react to his words, his hands had already attacked your body with tickles. You laughed so hard and screamed in surrender, almost having tears in your eyes.
'ok!!oppa!!i'll...get...up!' in between breathy laughs you shouted
Sitting up, you leaned your head on his shoulder.
'a while more, just 1 min, ill get up, i promise'
Leaning onto your head too, minseok gladly relented.
------
Kimbap, omelette, tteokbokki, beef bone soup. You looked at your tray, thinking if there's anything else you should be getting from the buffet.
'Orange juice for you?' minseok asked as you guys passed by the beverage corner
Nodding , minseok filled a glass for you and got coffee for himself. Finding a table nearby the window, the both of you sat down and begun a feast by the view.
All was well until chanyeol's voice came from afar
'hyung, sorry to interrupt your lovey dovey time'
chanyeol said with a chuckle, and minseok quickly dropped his hands from your cheek
'wae!' feigning some annoyance in his voice, minseok looked at chanyeol and jongin who's now by your table, giving mocking suggestive looks to minseok
'about cycling later, chanyeol hyung and i decided we should start out an hour earlier. Since i'm not too seasoned at cycling with my old injuries and i doubt y/n is too, so we might take a little longer.' jongin explained
a little confused, you looked at minseok and sent him a telepathic message: since when am i cycling? thinking internally, ok technically this was a cycling trip for the 3 guys and minseok got you to join in last-minute because you were free this week. Probably that’s why they assumed you’re joining the cycle
seeming to catch on the expressions you're sending each other, chanyeol asked
'y/n you're not cycling with us? why not! i have an extra bike just for you!'
jongin chirped in 'come join us! it's not fun to be by yourself at jeju do, plus we are planning to see the sunset later. don't you want to see it with hyung?'
their enthusiasm got minseok to raise his brows at you expectantly. you received his telepathic message, urging you to join them.
oh well.
'ah.. i'm going to be really slow, if that's ok with you guys then.. sure!' you smiled brightly and reached for minseok's hand under the table.
——-
20minutes into the cycle and you already feel exhaustion kicking in. Chanyeol was very much ahead, while jongin was still within a reachable distance. In order to take care of you, minseok decided to ride in pace with you.
feeling bad that minseok probably can't enjoy his ride to the fullest because of your speed you prompted him to go ahead without you
'y/n ah don't worry, i am having a good time riding side by side with you and looking at the beautiful sceneries together. Plus i know there probably won't be another opportunity you might ride with me again.' minseok assured you, and you can tell he really means his words
minseok always knew what to say to make you feel better, always making sure you would never feel like you're his burden because he just felt so perfect to you. You smacked him an air kiss, appreciative of what he said.
but shortly after, chanyeol slowed his speed and shouted over
'minseok hyung, you got to lead from here on, you were the one that planned the route. i can't really understand the map from here'
'chanyeol ah, but y/n is...'
cutting him off, you assured him
'don't worry about me, i'll be fine, maybe just abit slow. i can just follow jongin
minseok deliberated silently, not too willing to let you cycle alone.
'hyung go ahead, im not that much faster than y/n anyway. i'll take care of her. if we get lost it's going to be troublesome, just take the lead before the sun sets'
ultimately, it wasnt really a choice up to him because there was still a destination to get to, so he could only leave you in jongin's hands.
'ya, you better make sure she's alright, otherwise you pay your own meal later.'
after the call was made, minseok speed ahead infront of chanyeol and looked back once more at you.
-----
thankfully it was jongin who rode beside you. jongin had a really strange sense of humour, like honestly who thinks annabelle is a cute doll and watches horror movies to sleep? but you were always amused by what amuses him. the ride was tiring, but jongin's exclamations at the things he saw every 10minutes was relatively good enough to get you through.
you reached the destination all smiles together with jongin. minseok and chanyeol had already arrived sometime before and were sitting by the bench waiting.
quickly getting up the moment you arrived, minseok came over to check on you, holding both your shoulders
'how was it? are you ok? are you having fun too?' he was such a worry wart sometimes, overly caring boyfriend, a little like a mum.
'yes oppa, just thirsty.' you touched his arm to reassure him
'y/n im going to the standee , want to come along?' jongin asked in the middle of your conversation with minseok
'of course! you owe me ice cream since you didn't get the riddle right!
oppa, i'm going with jongin!' you broke free from minseok's reach and skipped over to jongin, heading for the standee enthusiastically.
holding the irresistible samanco (fish-shaped ice cream) in your hands, you eagerly attempted to tear the wrapper open as you and jongin returned to the rest point.
'watch out!!'
You heard a voice and looked up only to see a teenage boy on a bike coming right at you, and he was well losing control
shocked out of your skin, you dropped your samanco and shut your eyes, till a strong arm pulled you aside.
you heard a crash, and you slowly opened your eyes and found yourself against someone's chest. you breathed heavily from shock. not able to move just yet.
'are you alright?' you heard jongin's voice in your ears
he attempted to put distance between the both of you, but your legs went weak and you almost fell to the ground. thankfully he caught you before you buckled.
'what's going on?' this time it was minseok asking. coming over, he quickly took you from jongin's arms and carried you over to the resting bench.
‘She almost got into an accident, anyway I think she’s just in shock. No injuries.’ Jongin quickly explained
Not wanting minseok to worry, you reassured him after calming down a little ‘oppa im fine. Really, I’m not injured’
Coming over from the side jongin held out your samanco to you , trying to loosen you up.
‘Y/N, samanco’s waiting~’ he said in a singsong voice which got you laughing weakly
You reached out your hand towards the samanco, but minseok was faster than you, hastily taking the ice cream from jongin with a little more force than necessary.
Out of the blue, minseok instructed for jongin and chanyeol to park the bikes first. But something was off with minseok, behind that instructional tone you could tell he was a little more serious than usual.
You tested waters and offered him a bite of your ice cream, and surely , something was up.
‘It’s okay y/n, you can have it’ he said it almost too cooly
‘Jagi, what’s uppp, you’re acting strangee’ you slide closer to him and nudged him playfully
‘Aniya, what you mean what’s up?’ He folded his arms and looked ahead at the skyline after giving you a short glance
‘Jagiya, stop lying. Only if you tell me will I know what you’re thinking. Say it say it’ you lean in close to his face , but minseok still didn’t want to look at you in the eye entirely
Only after a while did he tilt his head to look at you
‘I’m just not used to seeing you and jongin being so close. Plus I really wanted to spend time with you here, turns out you’re having more fun with him’
His words surprised you a little, but the moment he finished his sentence, his back to his normal self, monologing infront of you
‘Ok, but I know it’s nothing bad that you guys are close and I should totally not be feeling this way. So I’m having this internal struggle of slapping myself with another side being ...’ he rumbled a little and did not complete his sentence
Understanding what he was trying to get at, you finished you samanco and wrapped your arms around his waist.
Then violently shake him until he started laughing again. Going on your aegyo mode
‘Oppa, don’t feel bad about u know, feeling that tad bit of jealousy even if it’s over your members. It’s better than denying it and sweeping it under the carpet, who knows it might be a huge problem in the future?’
Looking ahead at the horizon, the sky was turning into shades of orange and pink.
‘Look jagi, the sky looks just like a piece of art.’ You pointed
‘I hear some say if you kiss under the sunset, your love will last forever. Though it’s not yet sunset, I’ll just give you a kiss first’ you declared
And you cheekily gave him a peck on his lips
Grinning from ear to ear now, minseok held you close
‘Ya, Saranghae y/n. let’s just kiss till the sun sets then’
And he pulled your head right in
————
First ever xiu scenario! Absolutely did not expect to be writing it this long. And as I said I’m not tooo great at writing for xiumin, but hope you like it! EXO’s comeback is just round the corner and I’m trying to write one for every member! But will see how it goes~

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P3)
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
Find the previous parts in my master list! (It’s pinned on my tumblr)
————
In a blink of an eye, more than a month had passed since the beginning of high school. And you and Kyungsoo seemed to have developed a habit of walking to school together.
Alright, not really, maybe it was just your habit. After the first day, you weren’t sure if kyungsoo was going to wait for you, so you decided to leave home 20minutes earlier everyday to wait for Kyungsoo by his apartment.
You really enjoyed his morning company, and maybe he did too? You realised by the second week that he came out the same time everyday. So, nowadays you would just arrive 10 minutes earlier to wait for him.
Being in the same clique as kyungsoo was like a dream come true. You got to hang out together during your breaks and chat more than you both ever did in the past years. You can’t help but get more hopelessly drawn to him.
On the other hand, Woohyun being handsome and athletic made him real popular among the class girls. He often got gifts, which he would share with you, if they could be shared—like food. He wasn’t like a playboy or jerk but rather girls really wouldn’t leave him alone, because he’s just really nice, not to add he was really fun too.
Okay, but the unfortunate among the fortunate gathering of the 3 of you is that everyone sucks at studying; though it was only you and woohyun who often got into trouble with the teachers.
Chatting in class, playing games, sleeping, doodling, eating in class... you name it, the list probably has it. Basically you both made the best and worst tablemates at the same time.
Sad to say, it was coming up to mid terms soon, means it’s the time for hardcore studying. So these days, the 3 of you have been staying back after school to study together.
Or it was more like fun in disguise of studying.
‘Woohyun ah’ you nudged and spoke in a suppressed volume
‘kai bai bo, see who goes out to get our snacks after school today.’ It was now self study period and you were trying your best to get things going, but it wasn’t working
‘Y/n ah, I’m sorry, but it seems like there’s no snacks for you today. I have training after school’ woohyun stuck out his tongue playfully.
‘HUH?! NOOOO, WHY DIDNT U SAY EARLIER’ you exclaimed just a little louder than your normal voice, but was amplified because of the silence in class.
From beside, Kyungsoo shot a look over.
‘Kyungsoo ah, it’s just me and you todayyy. Pleasee follow me out of school to get snacks?’
Frowning, he just flatly rejected you
‘No, I don’t want to. It’s 20 minutes there and back it’s not like I really need those snacks anyway’ and turned back to continue working on his tutorial.
Whining, your motivation for after school study crashed a little and you grudgingly stabbing through the tutorial book with your pen.
——
After the final school before rang, it wasn’t long before the classroom was empty with only you and kyungsoo left. You had shifted your belongings to beside kyungsoo.
Your attention span was running really low after revising through the math content covered today. Getting restless, you started taking peeks at Kyungsoo who seemed equally lost though focused at whatever he was studying. You later giggled when you caught him talking to himself cutely.
But kyungsoo must have known you were watching him for quite awhile because he suddenly turned to you , asking seriously
‘Are you even going to study?’
‘But I can’t even focus anymoree, there’s no snacks to motivate me either. Let’s take a break together?’ You suggested hopefully
You tugged on his uniform sleeves and attempted aegyo at him
‘Ah, fine. Don’t pull my sleeves’ he moved himself away from you with his classic annoyed expression.
Leaving your tables, got down to the vending machine on the first floor.
‘Orange soda for me! Kyungsoo what are you getting?’
‘Uh, coke?’
Just as you were about to reach the vending machine only did you realise your hands were empty.
‘AH! MY WALLET!
Kyungsoo I didn’t bring my wallet, do you have enough?’
‘Aish, y/n ’ Sounding extremely defeated by you, he reached into his pockets. But reached deeper into it by the second.
‘HAHA YA KYUNGSOO , you didn’t bring either right?’
‘Shucks... I forgot I took it out during physical education’
‘This is it, kai bai bu, loser climbs four storeys up to get the wallet’ you smugly suggested
‘fine, since there’s a 50% chance I might win this’ he was all up for it
‘Kai bai bu!’ You both threw out your bets
‘HA KYUNGSOO! You’ve always been unlucky since you’re a kid! Pali! Help us get it, I’ll be waiting~~’
Sucking it up, Kyungsoo headed up the stairs while you sat down by the stairway to wait for him.
But 15 minutes had passed yet he wasn’t coming down. Your cheery mood was starting to fade,
Kyungsoo... did you play me out ?
It couldn’t be though... you didn’t believe kyungsoo would just leave you here alone and he was never a sore loser
You slowly start making your way up. But when you were reaching the third floor, you thought you heard kyungsoo’s voice.
Looking down the corridor, you were right. Kyungsoo was there.
But not alone. He was chatting with a female senior.
Your heart sank, did he just forget about you for a pretty senior?
You looked at them as they started to walk away together, you called out Kyungsoo’s name softly, and felt an ache in your heart.
Watching as they disappeared around the corridor, you could only make your way back up to the classroom.
Looking under your tables, both your wallets were still there. You dropped down to your seat wallowing in self pity. You just felt left behind and forgotten .. the more you think about it, how he put you there just to talk with a pretty senior made you feel more down than ever.
10 minutes in, he still hasn’t came back to class. To take the wallets, to go back to you.
You were in no mood to stay any longer. Packing up, you left the classroom with eyes swollen with tears threatening to fall.

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P2)
Genre/Desc: Loosely adapted from A Love So Beautiful
Chr: u x ksoo
——
By the time the third period started, it felt like scales were hanging off your eyes. The very last thing you heard was something about crystalline structures and the next moment you woke up, break time was about to end in 10minutes.
Jolting awake, you jumped out of your seat and made a rush to the canteen to pick something up before the bell rings.
The corridor was crowded as people started to stroll back to their classrooms.
'Excuse me, excuse me...'
You tried to slip through the crowd as fast as possible, and
BAM
Your hands were dripping wet with some sort chocolate drink.
'I'M SO SORRY' You bowed madly to apologise
'Excuse me, look here' the guy started rather gently, you heaved a sigh of relief thinking he sounded like a nice guy
You tilted your head up slowly, and when you guys made eye contact....
'YA, an apology is NOT going to work. Pay up, 50000 won for me to get this cleaned. Clumsy freshmen like you should just go back to middle school!' He gave your shoulder a push
'Wh...what?! Just wash it at home... Why do you need so much money to wash it?' You cowardly asked
People were starting to gather to look at what was happening, but not a single soul looked like they were going to help you.
'Bloody freshmen, pay up!'
Though you were trembling under your skin, you still spluttered out
'NO!You... you... you should go back to middle school for makingafussoutofthis!’
You must have hit his trigger spot, you could see his veins pulsating on his neck as his face turned visibly red.
He pushed you to the wall causing you to wince. From the side of your eye, you saw kyungsoo coming out of the classroom hurriedly
kyungsoo ah!please help me!
You shut your eyes and pleaded so hard hoping he would get the telepathic message as you see the guy stepping closer to you.
Right there and then a flying bag came from the side hitting him right on his head.
You let out the breath you had been holding.
‘Wow, fancy hitting on a freshman literally.'
And felt a fleeting moment of disappointment as you saw your saviour walk over. it wasn’t Kyungsoo
'It's better you stay out of this' the senior warned
'Hmm, i don't think it's better if i stay out. I think it's better if YOU stayed out.' He angled his head, asking the bully to look at the contents that spilled out of his bag.
A taekwondo black belt.
You could see the bully's eyes waver unsure of what to do. As if the timing couldnt have been better, the bell rang.
The crowd broke up and the bully scrambled away.
'Hey are you alright?' the guy asked
'Yes i am! Thank you so much, you're so cool!' Your savior was tall and handsome, his body was a killer for a high school kid. If not for kyungsoo, you would definitely have fallen for him already.
You picked up his things for him quickly and ran back to class. Surprisingly, kyungsoo was still standing by the door
'Gwenchana?' He asked
'Uh, gwenchana!' You smiled brightly at him and returned hastily to your seats
It was math period, also the period that your home room teacher teaches. She came walking in together with another student.
Omo! It’s him! My saviour, from earlier !
He seemed to recognise you and gave you a little wave as he walked in.
Clapping her hands she announced
‘Can I get everyone’s attention please! This is woohyun, he’s a sports student and will be joining our class. Woohyun can you please introduce yourself?’
‘Hi everyone, I’m Park Woohyun, I’m in the Taekwondo youth team. Please help me out with my work when I miss classes for trainings!’
He cheekily introduced himself and you could tell almost every girl in class was smitten by his looks. But for you...
You looked at Kyungsoo dreamily as you blow your fluffy pink bubbles in your mind
‘Go sit at the empty table beside y/n’ your teacher pointed towards you
Woohyun made his way towards the table and greeted you enthusiastically
‘Annyeong Chingu! So you’re y/n?’ He sat down beside you and you were more than happy to have him as your table partner.
‘Ne ne! Let’s get along well!’ He held out a fist bump to you, at which you awkwardly bumped back and giggled.
——
The day was coming up to an end, you and woohyun counted down to the bell with low voices, then exclaiming in whispers
‘YES!’ when the bell finally rang.
Woohyun had asked you to have ice cream after school together, you agreed and told him you would introduce him a new friend too.
While packing up, you called for kyunsoo
‘Kyungsoo ah, let’s go have ice cream together’
But when you looked up, kyungsoo was already walking away to the back of the class, making you panic.
‘Kyungsoo wait for me!!! Woohyun let’s go!’
You hastily shoved everything into your bag and took large strides to reach him fast
‘Kyungsoo ah, why didn’t you wait for meee? We are going home the same way anyway!’
‘But we never did in middle school’ he replied and looked at you blankly
‘Ah...but we’re in the same class now~ I’ll wait for you everyday!
Oh right, woohyun wants to get ice cream together! Woohyunie, this is Kyungsoo’
You introduced them to each other, while woohyun was rather elated Kyungsoo was as usual, abit reserved.
‘Uh, count me out of the ice cream’
‘No way! Come with us!’ Woohyun put his arms around Kyungsoo and forcefully dragged him along.
You laughed as you could tell Kyungsoo really hates skinship with new people.
Whatever it is, you couldn’t be happier that you have a clique with kyungsoo now.
——-
Had a down day at work and decided to get some writes out. Hope my fics would be able to brighten the day of someone that needs it like me too:)

EXO D.O. Series: You and Me. (P1)
Characters: ksoo x reader
Genre: high sch, (unrequited) love, coming of age, friends to lovers. Series!
Warning: This story is somewhat an inspiration from A Love So Beautiful. I know that there are some audiences who do not like the portrayal of the female character in the drama, would advise against reading if you are uncomfortable:) But would gladly welcome if you are open to give this read a try! Word Count: 954
You have been in love with kyungsoo for the longest time, but it seems like you're just in the friendzone? Will the day finally come when you both get together? And even if you both do, will it actually work out?
'kyungsoo ya!! wait for me!' you ran up to kyungsoo who was already making his way hurriedly to the bus stop.
'Good morning kyungsoo! Why didn't you wait for me? Didn't your mum tell you we're going to the same school again!' you asked breathlessly but still smiled cutely at him.
The two of you lived just opposite each other and have been attending the same schools throughout your lives. And today, was the first day of high school for the both of you!
Turning to look at you, he gave a monotonous good morning and muttered something about being late, which you couldn't catch at all, with that low voice of his.
'what did you say kyungsoo? can you repeat again?' you were struggling to catch up to his pace as you looked at him waiting for his answer
'ya, we are going to miss our bus this way, stop talking and hurry up' he anxiously replied as he saw the bus approaching the bus stop.
Doubling up his pace, you literally had to run to catch up. Pulling onto your bag straps that were about to fall off you ran behind kyungsoo.
But something was bound to happen when your unathletic self attempts something like running.
Thud!
Just as you say it.
'AHH!' You felt a shot of pain at your knee as you tripped and fell onto the ground. Your new shoes were not the most comfortable for you to run in just yet.
Hearing your yelp, kyungsoo quickly turned back to find out what had happened to you. Seeing you on the ground, he stared at you for a good while, before walking over to help you up.
'y/n ah, it's the first day of high school, are you still going to be like a primary school kid, falling down whenever you run?' He sighed as he picked you up.
'Oh gawd, you're bleeding at your knee too..'
You giggled and was convinced that kyungsoo's reproach was just his way of being endearing, and that was enough to make you happy.
But that happiness was shortlived as you watched the bus leave. Gasping you exclaimed
'the bus left!!! what are we going to do! we are going to be late now!'
The both of you watched the bus leave, and kyungsoo looked like he couldn't be more done with this.
'i don't think we have a choice y/n, we can only wait for the next bus... and be late.'
Walking slowly to the bus stop, he searched his pockets for a plaster and handed it over to you. Thanking him for it, you took it and quickly stuck it on.
Swinging your legs , the both of you sat side by side quietly, waiting by the bus stop. Looking at him and thinking about the both of you, you fell into your day dream, thinking
could this be the start to the blossoming of a young love?
Your bubble popped when you suddenly heard kyungsoo calling out to you
'Y/N AH!!'
Kyungsoo was already by the door of the bus when he called out to you, you hadn't even notice your bus had arrived. He ran over and pulled at your arm, dragging you over to the bus.
'How many times are you intending to miss the bus...' you heard him mutter under his breath.
Squeezing yourself up the crowded bus, you sighed at yourself. You are surely your own love nemesis, giving him troubles.
----
Upon reaching the school compound, the both of you had tried to sneakily avoid the line of sight of the discipline master by camouflaging with walls and bushes on the way in.
'TWO OF YOU, GET HERE RIGHT NOW. THE AUDACITY TO BE LATE ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
'Which class are the both of you from??'
'1-3' You both said simultaneously. OMG! Kyungsoo's the same class as me? Those words were soooo pleasing to your ears, your eyes lit up and you looked at kyungsoo. He frowned back at you, trying to hint at you to be serious with the discipline master right in front.
'The both of you raise your bags above your head until the first bell rings. Go! Stand right there!'
It's really not the best to be getting punished on the first day of school. But nothing beats getting to go to school with your crush and even finding out you're in the same class!
Seeing that the discipline master wasn't looking, you nudge at kyungsoo
'kyungsoo ahhh, i guess we're in the same class this time!'
‘Yeh, seems like it’ kyungsoo replied matter of factly.
Nicely, the bell rang in time before your arms broke.
‘Go now the both of you, hurry to class’
Bowing, the both of you quickly got to the classroom, but everyone was already seated by then and there were only 3 seats left.
There were 2 tables set side by side that were empty, and the other across the aisle in the same row.
Thinking this was your chance to sit beside Kyungsoo, you quickly took the seat at the pair of the empty table, intending to eye at him later to take the seat beside you.
But before you could even do so, your home room teacher came in
‘Both of you, hurry up choose a seat. The boy there stop standing at the back of the class, there’s an empty table right there’ pointing kyungsoo to take the table across the aisle from you instead.
Man, your hopes to be table partners were dashed. You sat down sadly, not even having a table partner at all... Though a little sad, at least he was still within 2 arms’ reach, literally.
