They Can't Take What's Ours
Tumblr media
idol!Yoon Jeonghan x reader
Sometimes, we just need to be reassured in order to survive.
TW: online bullying
a/n: I tried to write for Jeonghan but I don't know if I gave his character justice. But either way, I had fun writing this, especially since I want to make a tribute to Taylor Swift and her newly released album, The Tortured Poets Department. This was also inspired by her song, Ours. Anyways, have fun reading caratdeuls!

Tumblr media
Hanniemyluv: What did he even see in them?
Jeongcheol4ever: No wonder Jeonghan’s having a hard time lately. I mean, just look at that poor excuse of a person he calls his significant other. They don’t deserve him.
JeongieHannie: HANNIEEEE I LOVE U PLEASE LEAVE Y/N AND JUST BE WITH ME ALREADY
Sighing, you rolled on your other side before hugging your pillow tighter to yourself. You felt a stray tear rolling down your face and landing on the pillow but you made no move to wipe it off. You weren’t typically the type of person that would let a stranger’s words get to you but when you’re already having a bad day so far, they tend to cut deeper than they normally would. You were only trying to relax and put the day behind you while checking out the notifications that you got on your latest post that featured you and your boyfriend on a date night but it only made things worse. You already promised Jeonghan once before that you wouldn’t even try to look at the comments but you just can’t help yourself this time. It was already served on a silver platter before you even got a chance to look at the menu.
That was how Jeonghan saw you once he got home four hours later. It was also a long day for him resulting from a full schedule due to his work as an idol. Now, he just wants to relax his mind and body while cuddling up to you all night long.
Opening the door to your apartment, he took off his shoes one by one before trudging towards the living room. He sat down unceremoniously, closing his eyes for a bit. He called out to you, announcing his arrival, but when he didn’t receive any response after a few minutes, that’s when he opened his eyes wide and alert. It was unusual for you to be this silent whenever he arrived. And it was far more unusual for the apartment to be this dark and quiet every time he got home before your usual bedtime. Music would typically be blaring from the kitchen which will then be accompanied by your singing. He then will walk towards the source of the sound only to find you dancing wholeheartedly to the song while preparing for dinner. But now observing the room, Jeonghan knew that it wouldn’t be a time like that tonight.
He immediately stood up, searching for you in every room before finally reaching your bedroom door. As he neared the door, the sounds of your sniffles and quiet sobs reached out to his ears. Even more alert than before, he called out to you cautiously while trying to contain his panic and overthinking tendencies. He opened the door, slowly revealing your bundled-up figure on your side of the bed. At the sound of the door, you turned towards it. Once he sees your tear-stricken face, he then wonders if you can hear his heart breaking in pieces or if it is just in his mind.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” Jeonghan calmly asked sitting at the edge of the bed closest to you. He’s trying his best not to let you hear the panic in his voice knowing that any sign of distress can only make the situation worse. If there’s one thing he learned as your partner for a few years now is that it is best to just let you take your time to gather up your thoughts and just be there for you in any way that you need. And just like any other time, that was what it took for you to finally open up.
You let him pull you into his arm once he saw your eyes filling up with tears once again but it only made you cry harder. You tried to tell him the reason behind your breakdown but all that came out were broken words and hiccups. Jeonghan only shushed your attempts, replacing them instead with reassuring and calming words in your ears. Based on the snippets of your jumbled-up thoughts you were trying to convey as well as your phone facing up and showing a portion of your post’s comment section, he can already tell what happened and it only broke his heart even more. You didn’t deserve any of this hate in any way whatsoever. He then started to plot how he would address this the next time he went live for his fans and the general public.
It took you some time but eventually, you started to calm down. Even then, Jeonghan stayed quiet, waiting for you to start talking while still rocking the both of you.
“I’m sorry.” you sniffed. Jeonghan gently pulled you apart only to make you look at his confused face. 
“What are you apologizing for?”
“For crying all over you,” you pouted. He swears that if you weren’t just recovering from your breakdown, he would coo over how cute you were right now. But alas, this wasn’t the case so he kept his thoughts at bay albeit unwillingly.
“Oh honey,” he sighed, “there’s no need to apologize for that. You know I’m here for you no matter what.”
“I know,” you sniffed, “but you’re already tired enough from practice and you don’t need me to add to your exhaustion. Speaking of, did you have dinner already? I can fix something up for you. I’m sure there’s food in the fridge I can heat up for you. What do you wa—”
Jeonghan put his finger on your lips, effectively shutting you up. You can only slump your shoulders in protest knowing this is his way of letting you know that you don’t get to get away from talking through this with him. Once he was sure you wouldn’t be attempting any escape plans at the moment, he took his finger off your lips and softly cradled your face with both of his hands.
“You do know that I love you, right?” he asked. You nodded in response with a pout but Jeonghan only shook his head.
“That’s not enough.”
“Okay, fine,” you sighed, “yes, I know.”
“No. still not enough.”
“What do you mean it’s still not enough?”
“I want you to repeat after me.”
“Okay?” you answered unsurely.
“Jeonghan, my most handsome and loving boyfriend, loves me.”
You blinked twice, trying to make sure he’s serious. But when you only saw genuine determination in his eyes, all you could do was sigh and follow his words.
“Jeonghan, my most handsome and loving boyfriend, loves me.”
“I am the most beautiful human being to ever grace this planet.”
“I am the most beautiful human being to ever grace this planet.”
“Haters gonna hate so I’m just gonna shake it off.”
“Haters gonna hate so I’m just gonna shake it off.”
“Shake it off.”
“Shake it off.”
“The stakes are high.”
“The stakes are high.”
“The water’s rough.”
“The water ’s rough.”
“But this love is ours.”
“But this lo— are we actually just quoting Taylor Swift lyrics right now?”
“...no.”
You narrowed your eyes at him but he didn’t even budge for one second. You then rolled your eyes before fully repeating the last line.
“See? That wasn’t so hard. Now I need my kisses.”
You shrieked when he pushed you onto the bed and before you knew it, he started showering you in kisses all over your face. You can only laugh over his antics, trying and failing to push him off of you. At the sound of both of your laughter, it was safe to say that the darkness of the night was now ignored by the lightness you both felt in your hearts.

Feeling Quite Muggy Today
Tumblr media
Lee Seokmin (DK) x reader
There will always be a rainbow after the storm. Or in other words, the most beautiful things can come from the ugliest circumstances.
TW: reader having a bad day, toxic boss, accident-prone reader
A/N: here's a new one-shot for our very own Sunshine! I've been working on this for the whole day so hopefully everything checks out. If there are other TW that I missed, please do tell me so I can add it in the list. My taglist for Seventeen is still open so if you wanted to be tagged for my future works, just send an ask. As always, enjoy reading caratdeuls!

Tumblr media
Mornings were supposed to be calm and relaxing.
Watching the sun peek through its confinement from the clouds should be mesmerizing and serene.
Even going through your morning routine despite the looming stress that comes from a workday should be tranquil and unperturbed.
Well to be fair, your day did start like that. Waking up to the birds harmoniously chirping through the window behind the sleeping form of your boyfriend. The sun's rays hit the back of his head, creating a beautiful halo from the disheveled hair around him.
Looking at your phone by the bedside table, you realized that you still have a few minutes before your alarm goes off. So you settled back in the comfort of your bed and in your boyfriend’s arms, content in letting the day begin with the warmth this morning brings you.
You almost fell right back to sleep when you hear the first few notes of your alarm being played. Seokmin once asked you how you were able to wake up to the soft tune of a piano playing when he needed the power of a rock band just to take him out of dreamland. You then tried explaining how much of a light sleeper you are through your laughter as he drum his hands on your stomach which turned into a tickling fest. Keyword: tried. You chuckle at the memory before going through with your routine but not without the expected resistance and whispers of “5 more minutes” from the person beside you.
After taking a shower and changing into your work clothes, you went down to your kitchen to start preparing breakfast for the both of you. You let Seokmin take his time trying to get the sleep out of his system since his schedule doesn’t start until noon. 
Once you got the kettle on the stove and your eggs start sizzling on the pan, you suddenly felt arms wrapping around you from behind and the smell of citrus shampoo and cologne engulfed you.
“Good morning to you my little sunshine,” Seokmin murmured into your neck, softly kissing the spot just below your ear.
You giggled from the ticklish feeling before responding, “Good morning to you too Minnie.”
“So what is on the menu for today?”
“Well,” you drawl out as you turn off the stove and turn around in his arms to face him, “It was either eggs or a burned-down kitchen. Personally, I would prefer to have a fully functioning kitchen so I ultimately decided on having simple eggs as breakfast.”
He laughed at your response, remembering all the accidents you have made in this very kitchen due to your clumsiness. There were so many of them that it came to a point where he was actively avoiding any opportunities for you and Mingyu to be in the same room at the same time. The disaster that would ensue once that happens would be one for the history books.
“Okay, eggs it is then,” Seokmin answered once he got a hold of himself. He then started preparing coffee for the both of you while you transfer the cooked eggs to your plates. He took out the kettle, filled it up with water, and put it on the stove that’s already been turned on by you. You passed by him holding your plates in both hands before placing them on the dining table. You then return to the kitchen to take out your designated breakfast mugs from the overhead cabinets, a mug shaped like a dog with its tail as the handle for Seokmin and a black and gold marble-like mug for you.
That was one of the things that certainly became a permanent feature in your household once you moved in with Seokmin in your new apartment. You were the one to bring a whole collection of mugs, ranging from the aesthetically minimalist ones to the weirdest and funniest mugs that even Seokmin was visibly perplexed as to how in the world you got them. It was at that moment that your boyfriend decided that mugs would equal you. Anytime he goes on a trip somewhere and sees a mug, there’s no doubt that he wouldn’t be going home without it. From then on, your mug collection just doubled as time goes by, successfully taking almost half of the whole kitchen storage space.
One morning just like this, Seokmin noticed how you always used that particular mug for your morning coffee. Never failed to use it every morning but when it came to the other parts of the day, there wasn’t a specific mug that you choose. When he inquired to you about this, that’s when he learned how special that mug is to you. You shared how it was the very first mug that you bought on your own. 
Owning things for yourself in your family’s household was a rare thing for you. Every single thing was shared by every family member and your things were typically paid for by an older relative since you were still a student at the time and have no work to earn money from. So once you graduated and were finally working, it was a very special moment for you when you finally got your own mug through your own effort.
In hindsight, you realized how simple and anti-climatic buying your own mug really was but Seokmin immediately stopped you from saying anything further. He then reassured you by walking to one of the cabinets that were filled with mugs and opening it, seemingly making the hardest decision in his life while scanning the variety of mugs in front of him before finally taking one out and going back to his seat in front of you. Placing the dog-shaped mug on the dining table separating the both of you, he solemnly declared that this was his own breakfast mug from here on out. You then smiled the brightest smile Seokmin ever saw on your face and if you were to ask him, he would probably describe it as the only thing other than the sun that a sunflower field will always face.
So when Seokmin heard a crash behind him, looking over to see your favorite mug on the floor in pieces, he knew this day would be one of the hardest days you will ever experience.
His feet moved towards you before you even realize what was happening. He guided your frozen figure to a seat on your kitchen island, carefully removing his mug that was still in your hands and placing it on the counter. He then went back to the area where your mug was laying in pieces, picking up a plastic bag to put your mug in. He carefully took each broken piece in the bag all the while glancing at your from time to time trying to gauge whatever you were feeling at the moment.
The whole moment only sank in for you when you heard the clanking of the pieces in the secured bag as it was placed in front of you. You then felt warm hands gently cupping your cheeks and a thumb softly wiping on the area below your left eye. Overwhelmed by the sudden downturn of events as well as the worried look plastered on your boyfriend’s face, you whimpered before finally breaking down.
Seokmin’s arms immediately wrapped around you, letting you cry as much as you need to. You were a blubbering mess, trying to apologize for how pathetic you possibly looked crying over a mug. But all he did was shush your worries with reassurances, shutting down every single insecurity that seeps out with a whisper of his own words full of love and care.
It took you a while before you finally calmed down enough to remove yourself from the cocoon of your boyfriend’s arms. When Seokmin was sure that you were good enough to leave alone for a minute, he stood up to get you a cup of water. When he came back to your side, he let you drink the whole thing before taking the cup away and putting it in the sink, reminding himself to wash it later.
He observed you for a bit, taking note of your sad and tired eyes and fidgeting fingers. He was about to say something when you interrupted him.
“No, it's okay. I’ll be okay,” you mumbled.
“Are you sure?” he asked, trying to find any sign of hesitation behind your eyes.
“Yes, I’m sure.” You put your hand on top of his squeezing it while looking directly into his eyes, doing your best to convey the sincerity behind your words even though you knew deep inside that this will definitely be an annoying chip on your shoulder for quite some time.
“And besides,” you chuckled, “it really isn’t a great thing to say to your boss that you wouldn’t be able to work because of a stupid mug.”
Seokmin knew what you were doing. He knew your tendency to downplay whatever you were feeling and use humor as a defense mechanism. But even then, he also knew that you were too stubborn to do anything otherwise.
So he let you continue on with your breakfast, obviously trying to avoid looking in the direction of the plastic bag that holds the mug. He tried making light conversation while eating, inserting a joke or two that he knows will make you laugh even in these circumstances. In some way, you can say that he was successful in getting a laugh out of you but for Seokmin, he can hear how dull they were compared to your real laugh.
Once you were done with breakfast, you immediately get up to put your dishes in the sink only to be stopped by Seokmin as he told you that he will take care of it. You smiled at him gratefully before proceeding to get ready for work.
Coming out of the bedroom fully clothed in your work clothes, you kissed Seokmin goodbye and rushed out of the apartment when you realized how late you were, shouting an “I love you” before the door closed behind you. 
The moment that you were fully out of the apartment, he let out a deep sigh. He sat back down on your sofa with the plastic bag in his hands. His thoughts start to wander, trying to find a solution to your predicament. He took out his phone and started googling different ways to fix a broken mug when he came across a particular video. Watching the whole thing, he grinned knowingly. He started the video once again from the very beginning, determined to bring back that bright smile of yours.
— — —
You closed the door to your apartment, sighing in relief that you were finally home. You knew that your day was only gonna get worse after that particular incident but you didn’t expect that it would get this bad.
You were on your way to work that morning when your boss suddenly sent an email to you letting you know that you will have an impromptu presentation at a coming meeting that same day. Your boss then noted at the end that no excuses will be tolerated and that you should be thoroughly prepared for it. You sighed frustratedly, reminding yourself to take a few deep breaths before you do anything drastic. You just turned up your car’s volume and continued driving, letting Taylor Swift drown out your thoughts of replying back to your boss with an email full of profanities and declarations that would definitely land you with an issue from your HR.
Finally reaching your office, you were heavily set on finally getting to relax for a bit before you actually begin to work. But once you sat down, you were immediately met with a buttload of paperwork on your desk. The fact that you haven’t had a single cup of coffee since then was only adding to your frustration. This then resulted in you remembering the very reason for your lack of caffeine which only made you want to rip out every single hair strand from your head.
Unfortunately for you, your misery continued on for the whole day. From your boss berating you for your poor performance during your presentation to being stuck in heavy traffic on your way home, you were in desperate need of cuddles and comfort from your boyfriend.
Trudging towards the living area, you absentmindedly remove your shoes as you walk. Once you reached your couch, you were met with the most endearing image you have ever seen in your entire life. Sitting on your couch is Seokmin wearing a very comfortable dog onesie while holding popcorn and ice cream. The tv was turned on and your favorite comfort movie was paused, waiting for your arrival.
“I
I don’t even know what to say,” you muttered, overwhelmed by the love from your boyfriend. You were about to sit down when Seokmin suddenly stood up.
“Wait!” Seokmin reached out for your shoulders, effectively pushing you toward the direction of your bedroom.
“What? Why? What’s happening?” You try to resist but immediately yelped when you were only met with him scooping you up into his arms bridal style. He didn’t reply to your protests as he walked, only flashing you a grin that told you that you weren’t getting out of this anytime soon.
Once you reached your bedroom door, Seokmin finally let you down on your feet. He opened the door and led you to the bed where a onesie of your favorite animal was laid out.
“Even though I love seeing you in your work clothes, being sexy and all that jazz, I also love for you to be as comfortable as you can be,” Seokmin said, kissing your forehead before heading out of the room. You looked back to the onesie on your bed that was definitely only bought earlier today. But even then, it smelled of Seokmin’s cologne which made you smile. You were totally gonna ask him if he was a mind reader or something.
When you finished changing out of your work clothes and into your onesie, you walked back to the living area. You sat beside your boyfriend fully prepared to get as comfortable as you can.
“Oh shit wait, I forgot something.” Seokmin ran towards the kitchen before coming back to the couch. You watched him hand you a mug full of your favorite beverage while he sat down beside you, also holding his own mug. You muttered a thank you before you settled down with him.
You then waited for him to start the movie but after a few minutes, he still didn’t move. Confused, you looked back at him only to be met with sparkling eyes and an excited grin on his face.
“What?” you asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Seokmin didn’t say anything and instead, he glanced at your mug before looking back up to you. Scrunching your eyebrows, you followed his line of sight wondering why your boyfriend was acting weird all of a sudden. It was then that you realized what he was trying to show.
In your hands was the very mug that you broke earlier that day. It wasn’t even a replica of your mug. It was the exact mug that you bought. The only thing that was different was the thick gold lines that sprout from random edges of your mug. And probably for the millionth time today, your eyes glistened with tears but unlike before, this one was filled with tears of happiness.
“B-but how?” you whispered, still in awe.
“Well, I know how much you care for that mug and I didn’t really want to end this day with you being all sad because of it. So I tried to find ways to fix your mug. That’s when I stumbled upon a Japanese method of repairing ceramics and things like that. I think it was called kitsune or something,” Seokmin explained.
“Do you mean kintsugi?” you clarified.
“Oh! Yes! That’s the term. Kintsugi,” he confirmed.
Looking back at your mug, you realized that that was the reason for the thick golden lines all around it. Kintsugi is a Japanese method of repairing ceramics with the use of glue that was then dusted with gold. The main idea behind this particular method is that the flaws and imperfections of something also deserve to be seen as a beautiful thing. Your heart only swelled even more because of this.
“Do you
 like it?” Seokmin asked.
“Like it? I love it!” you placed the mug on the coffee table before lunging at him, your arms wrapping around him. He laughed as he was pushed down towards the couch due to your strength, surprised by your sudden actions before hugging you back.
“I love you Lee Seokmin,” you murmured into Seokmin’s neck.
“I love you too, my little ball of sunshine,” he replied, kissing your head. He reached out for the remote on the coffee table, pressing the play button before returning his arm around you.
The both of you stayed like that the whole night up until the morning sun shines through your windows, letting the warmth of each other seep through your skins and fill up your hearts.

Wonwoo x gn!reader
Keeping in touch with your partner also means understanding them in the midst of silence.
A/N: I tried my best to keep this as gender neutral as possible so if you notice anything that was described otherwise, please let me know. My general taglist for Seventeen is also open so if you want to be tagged for future purposes, just send an ask. As always, enjoy reading caratdeuls!

Tumblr media
If there was one word to describe your whole relationship, it would be lowkey.
PDA isn't much of a thing for the both of you. The most coupley action that others would see from you is holding hands. There are times where the both of you would hug in public but even then, it can be a rare occurrence.
This doesn't totally mean that you're keeping your relationship a secret. You aren't afraid to show off your partner when the opportunity arises. In fact, you are considered a package deal everytime you go out. Being invited to family and friendly gatherings would always result in having a plus one unless circumstances deem otherwise.
But even then, your relationship leans more towards being private. It isn't even a compromising situation for anyone. It simply just became like that due to the combination of your personalities. And now thinking about it, it became clear for the both of you why your friends kept on telling you how perfect you are for each other.
You know Wonwoo and Wonwoo knows you.
One of the things you learned throughout your relationship with Wonwoo is how to gauge his energy depending on the circumstances. Being exposed to a lot of people for the duration of the day would most likely result in a low energy vibe once he enters your home. He wouldn't be as chatty as he normally would and would only crave to have you by his side to comfort him. This then calls for a movie night in bed while cuddling with each other.
As for Wonwoo, he learned about your tendency to distance yourself from others whenever you're in a mood.
It wouldn't be noticeable much at first. But as time goes by, Wonwoo notices small changes in your daily routines.
Hugs would be shorter. Kisses would be fewer. Conversations would end sooner rather than later.
But even then, it isn't something that Wonwoo would think too much about. At times, he would also do these things unconsciously only to come back to his normal self once he recovers from whatever he was feeling at the time. And throughout those times, you were a silent supporter and a shoulder to lean on. So when he notices that you're doing the same things, he doesn't do anything but be there for you.
It was when it would take you almost a day to reply to his messages that would turn Wonwoo into alert mode.
The first time you did this during your relationship, Wonwoo was in shambles trying to figure out what he did wrong all by himself. It was unusual for you to even take an hour before you reply to him. So when an hour turned into 2 hours to the point that half a day went by and you still didn't reply, Wonwoo didn't know what to do except panic internally.
This was only resolved when he finally came home from work and you were on the sofa, waiting to explain how you tend to ignore your messages due to how draining it was for you to even think about starting a conversation with someone.
He understood where you were coming from. Today's era of technological advancement in the social life of people can be beneficial at most. Connecting each person with one another without even leaving the comfort of their homes is one heck of a development in today's society. But even then, it can be draining for some.
Now that you are nearing your fourth anniversary, Wonwoo already knows what to do in times like these.
The moment he came home, he beelined to your bedroom where he knew you were shielding yourself from the outside world through the barrier given by your pillows and blanket.
Hearing the creaking of your bedroom door, you glanced up to your beloved intruder with a very warm and comforting smile plastered on his face. Just by seeing him, you felt your body totally relax and it was only then that you noticed how tense you were.
Wonwoo laid beside you, letting you scooch closer to him with his arms wide open. Once the both of you were settled, limbs all tangled up with each other with your face comfortably nestled by the crook of his neck, you waited for him to address the elephant in the room.
After a few minutes of your breaths being the only sounds in the room, you decided that you can't keep quiet any longer.
"Wonwoo?" You whispered, afraid to burst this little bubble of comfort you both made.
"Hmm?" He hummed as you felt the vibrations of his neck through your skin.
"Don't you have anything to say?" You bite your lip, anxious of what this conversation will lead to.
"What do you mean, love?" Wonwoo answered.
"I mean, aren't you confused about anything?" You asked.
"Confused? Of what?" He replied. You don't know if he's joking or not but as you wait for him to understand what you're trying to say, you only sigh in frustration.
Wonwoo chuckled once he heard your resigned exhale of air. His arms around you gripped you tighter, tethering you to him as if you were about to float away.
"I'm joking, love," he said, kissing your head, "but to answer your question, no I don't have anything to say at all."
Perplexed, you parted from him for a bit to look at him directly only to be faced with his softened look as he gazed upon you. Trying to ignore how flustered you are from his gaze, you scrunch your eyebrows in confusion.
"But why?" You whined. You purse your lips, thinking of the possible reasons why he didn't even question your frustrating (your words not his) mood. He then pecked your lips immediately upon noticing that particular habit of yours.
Chuckling once again at your flustered and blushing face, he answered, "Because I don't have to."
When you still didn't stop staring at him as if awaiting for him to finally unveil the truth behind his lies, he smiled at you reassuringly. He then reached up to your eyebrows with his thumb, caressing the area around it to remove the way you're scrunching it from confusion.
"I don't have to because I know you and I understand you. You don't have to explain things to me every time you feel this way. All I need is to know that you're okay and I don't need to worry about anything else," he reassured.
If other people were watching the two of you right now, all of them would probably say that the look on your faces is what love looks like. Wonwoo gazing at you as if nothing can ever taint you while you watch him as if he was the main reason why the stars were shining that night.
You both fell asleep like that, holding each other as if the only thing that prevents you from merging with one another is the limits of science. Wonwoo's messages may be left unseen for hours on end but deep down he already knew, your replies were sent to him through your hearts beating as one.

Humanda talaga kayo sa akin next time na magkita tayo.
Frustrated, you shut your phone off before putting it back in your pocket. You glanced at Seungcheol and halatang kausap niya rin mga tropa niya based on how hard he was typing on his phone.
Seungcheol then looked back up to you, seeing the same exact expression on your face.
It was obvious right then and there that the both of you had no fucking idea what to do.
"So
" Cheol started. You hummed, fiddling with your jacket. All the while avoiding his eyes.
"May hinihintay ka bang kasama?" He asked, wholeheartedly hoping na wala kang kadate na kikitain ngayon.
You contemplated on how to answer his question. On one hand, you wanted to tell him the truth that you were just planning to meet up with your friends. On the other hand, you wanted to lie and say yes.
Hayst. Bitter ako pero di ako liar liar pants on fire.
"Yep," you nodded, "Yung mga kaibigan ko lang. Although base sa mga reply nila sa mga message ko, mukhang solo rider ako ngayon." You huffed, remembering how you basically rushed your plates para lang makasama ka sa gala niyo today.
"Wait, what do you mean?" Cheol furrowed his eyebrows, wondering and hoping na isang coincidence lang ang lahat ng 'to at hindi pinlano ng mga barkada ninyo.
That's when he noticed your matching outfits.
White and jeans.
"Anak ng pocha!"
"Ay bwiset!" You immediately exclaimed, startled by the loudness of his voice. Looking at your reaction with your hands on your chest, Cheol almost laughed if he wasn't so distracted by his realization of both of your situations.
You outstretched your arms towards him signaling for him to calm down, "Bakit? Anong meron?"
Cheol closed his eyes and took a deep breath. You can hear him muttering something similar to a
 countdown?
Putek bakit naman biglang nagbibilang 'to from ten pababa? Favorite movie siguro nito yung Kita-Kita nina Empoy tsaka Alessandra de Rossi.
Ay oo nga pala, uncultured nga pala tong kausap ko.
You waited for him to respond, pursing your lips. To be honest, 'di mo alam kung ano ba talaga iisipin mo as of now. All you knew is that iniwan kang mag-isa ng mga kaibigan mo sa EK.
When you saw him open his eyes, you raised your eyebrows at him as if to ask if everything's okay. He nodded before responding to your question.
"'wag kang magagalit sa sasabihin ko ah pero I think they set us up."
Confusion. That's what painted your face the moment he said it.
"Huh?"
"They set us up."
"... As in
?"
"Iniwan nila tayo sa EK nang mag-isa."
"So
?"
"Nasa date tayo. We're having a blind date."
You stared at him and he stared back, waiting for everything to click in your mind.
You blinked, "huh?"
"Nak ng. HIPPIEDOODLEDOO! MAY HIPPIEDOODLEDOO TAYO!"
Cheol saw how your face lit up in realization only to look sad, and disappointed even, the next second. It was then his turn to be confused upon seeing your reaction.
You sighed looking down at your feet, "Sorry Cheol."
"Huh? Bakit ka naman nagsosorry?"
"Nadamay ka pa kasi sa kalokohan ng mga kaibigan ko."
Cheol still didn't fully understand why you were sorry. It isn't as if your friends are the only ones to blame when his own friends also left him there.
"I know na magiging issue lang 'to sa inyong dalawa ni Jane kaya okay lang kung magdecide kang umuwi na lang."
Cheol blinked once, twice, before responding, "Huh?"
"Ampotek lutang ka rin ba?"
"No no I meant bakit mo naman nasabi yun?"
"Lutang ka nga talaga." You sighed frustratedly. Alam mong di naman unusual ang sabog moments sa buhay ng mga college students pero 'di naman to the point na makakalimutan mong may kalovelife ka nga pala.
Cheol tried to explain but you were already walking away from him.
"Okay lang talaga Cheol kahit iwan mo na ako rito. Susulitin ko lang binayad ko sa entrance fee bago ako umuwi. Halos 500 pesos din yun 'no." You said nonchalantly. You tried your best to not let him see how your current situation affected you. That's why you kept on walking as fast as you could, facing away from him.
He chased after you all day, ride after ride, trying to explain what really happened. It was only when the both of you were situated on the very back of the Space Shuttle cart that Cheol was finally able to make you listen to what he had to say.
"Wait yn, let me explain muna bago ka magsalita ulit. Please." He begged.
Fuck. Wag kang ganyan Chie. Alam mong weakness ko yang pout mo.
"Fine. Sige, explain."
Cheol smiled brightly, finally feeling relieved that he got to explain his side. By this point, the ride had already started and was slowly creeping backwards and upwards, trying to build up its momentum.
"Okay so wala na talaga kami." You raised your eyebrows in shock and were already opening your mouth to react before being interrupted by him.
"Wait! Quiet ka muna!" He put his finger on your lips, effectively shushing you.
You feel your cheeks warm up upon feeling his finger on your lips but thankfully, he didn't seem to notice. He was too focused on whatever he was trying to say to see your wide eyes and nervous gulp.
"Matagal na kaming wala. I ended things with her nung narealize ko na hindi pala siya ang talagang sinisigaw ng puso ko. Ang poetic ampotek pero what I'm saying is true. 'Di talaga siya ang para sa akin kasi ikaw ang gusto ko, yn. Ikaw lang at wala nang iba." If your eyes could get even bigger, it probably did. You tried to reply to his confession but you didn't get a chance to with how he basically rapped his explanation to you.
"Apparently, tanga lang pala talaga ako sa nararamdaman ko kasi kahit pala si Jane napansin na niya rin yung feelings ko sa'yo way before ko marealize na may feelings pala ako sa'yo. Si Wonwoo nga halos ibalibag na ako sa sobrang inis niya dahil sa pagkamanhid ko sa sarili ko eh. In fact, I think siya nga ang may pakana ng lahat ng ito kasi siya lang naman ang may ganito kalaking braincell sa aming apat na magtotropa. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know na this wasn't your fault and I truly like you in a romantic way."
It was silent for a few seconds. Cheol was still holding your lips hostage with his finger. He then looked up before saying out loud, "I should probably say thank you sa tropa nating dalawa."
Cheol heard you mumble something incoherent, scrunching his eyebrows in confusion. You pointed at his finger on your lips which made him remove it immediately, his cheeks turning red as cherry upon realizing what he did (he then swore he will never tell you how he essentially engraved in his mind the feeling of your lips on his finger until the day he dies).
"Wait," Cheol said before you got any word out, "nakasakay ba tayo sa rollercoaster?"
Confused, you nodded yes.
"Fuck."
"Bakit?"
"May fear of heights ako."
Click.
Clack.
Silence.
The cart was then released.
You definitely will need to get your ears and hand checked after this ride.
Cheol was screaming—scratch that, screeching— while he held on to your hand for dear life all throughout the ride. It was so bad to the point na nagulat ka na lang na hindi pa nagsuka si Cheol pagkatayo na pagkatayo ninyo.
Kung mayroon pang ikapuputla ang mukha ni Cheol, it definitely did at the time. You even bought him his favorite ice cream para lang mahimasmasan siya.
You let him relax himself for a few minutes before getting his attention.
He looked up to you while eating his ice cream, "Hmm? Bakit?"
You giggled at how cute he looked right now before replying, "I like you too Chie."
Ampotek nabilaukan pa nga siya. Nasaan na ba yung tubig?????
