Road Trip with! NCT Dream
Tumblr media
the album,,,,,,, the mv,,,,,, i’m soft don’t touch me,,,,,,,,,,,, here’s a road trip au based on their mv to let my uwus out. also this gif makes me hella emo
hello
so i know school has started in most countries
but for this au, pretend that you’re still on summer vacation!!
aka what i wish i was on rn ugh
anyways!!
high schoolers! dream!!!
except-
mark’s already graduated high school
and will head off to his uni after the summer ends
then donghyuck, jeno, jaemin and renjun’s gonna graduate before next year summer
which really means
that it’s gonna be the last summer of your crew as high schoolers
this thought didn’t really go through your head until a week before school starts
when the 00 line fucking shows up at your door with their bags already packed
and bright smiles
you’re just like-
????when did we agree on a sleepover????
“hEY YOU UP FOR A ROAD TRIP TO COMMEMORATE OUR LAST SUMMER AS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS?”
“uh-”
“come on, dear y/n, it’s not like you were planning on doing anything else”
you eyes narrow 
becaUSE DID THEY JUST ASSUME YOU HAD NOTHING TO DO
i mean,,,, they’re right tho,,,,, all you’ve done all summer is laze at home because it’s way too hot outside,,,,,,,,but,,,,,,,,,,,,
“can,,,,, you even drive tho”
“hahHAHAHAHAHAH DONGHYUCK? DRIVE?” 
“i even don’t trust him with my fish what makes you think i trust him with the wheel”
“okAY JUST BECAUSE I FAILED MY DRIVING TEST TWICE DOESN’T MEAN YOU GUYS CAN BULLY ME”
fuck no one’s sane here
but what’d you really expect from two jocks and two art geeks
the same jocks and geeks that pushed you back into your own home and watched as you packed
wipes away tear
“why am i always forced to do dumb shit with you guys”
“whAT DO YOU MEAN????”
and so you were pushed out the door after having a word with your parents
who only agreed to let you go cause they deemed renjun trust worthy
because he’s the only one who at least acts normal around your parents
“whoSE CAR ARE WE EVEN U S I N G- oh”
right on the curb parked mark’s old and stuttering blue car.
on which he sat in the driver’s seat, trying to get the old thing to play music
“are you sure we’re not gonna die”
“nope, but it’s the only car we have available”
jeno whispered in response, throwing your bag in the trunk
“ah, y/n, i see you’ve been successfully dragged into hyuck’s dumb idea”
donghyuck climbs into the passenger seat next to mark, 
flipping his friend off in the proccess
“you are all here because we are all friends and we love each other”
you, being squashed in the back seat:
“no - not really”
“wtf jaemin there’s another row of seats in the back stOP TRYING TO PUSH ME OUT”
“BUT I WANNA SIT WITH Y/N????”
“fucking donghyuck”
“WHY ME???? WHAT HAVE I DONE????”
wow great start to your trip 10/10
picking up chenle and jisung literally took five seconds
they lived next to each to each other
and it only took one excited nod from chenle for jisung to tag along
and that’s the story of how you ending up being in a shotty blue car with seven teenage boys
miles from home on an empty ass road
screaming the lyrics to micheal jackson songs into the heat (thanks to dj haechan)
at least mark got the speakers to work again
“wherE ARE WE EVEN GOING???”
“IDK LOL”
“WAIT WHATTHEFUCJ-”
at one point, jisung and chenle at the back decided to sit up onto the car, with their legs on their seats
“I’M PRETTY SURE THAT’S ILLEGAL AND DANGEROUS”
“yOlO!!1!1!!!1”
“how the fuck do i disown them”
“push them off”
everything was going swimmingly
until the car breaks down in the middle of the road
“i knew this was gonna happen sighs”
mark then jumps out to check the hood
then immediately notices something wrong rip
“hyuck, pass me the box in the glove box.”
“you’re prepared???? does this happen often or????”
so mark tries to fix the car in the blistering heat with renjun nagging beside him, holding an umbrella to hide the two of them from the sun
whilst the rest of you start playing uno on the back of the car
multiple times, not once, buT MULTIPLE TIMES
CHENLE HAS LOOKED AT YOUR CARDS
HE’S DOESN’T EVEN TRY DEFEND HIMSELF WHEN YOU POINT IT OUT
WHAT A LITTLE SNAKE
“FOR FUCKS SAKE ZHONG CHENLE IF U DON’T STOP I SWEAR-”
jisung won every round 
which made the rest of you bond trying to break his win streak
“jeno do you have a plus four to screw him up with”
“i only have a green plus two if that helps”
and that kinda goes on until mark lee emerges from behind the raised hood, telling y’all to give the car a push
“yeah just a second, jisung’s finally losing-”
“hA YOU THOUGHT”
THROWS DOWN FIVE NINES
INFURIATING
everyone grumbles as they hop off and start pushing
“lets just put our rage into pushing this stupid car”
which ends up moving easier than y’all thought it would
so the seven of you stumble a little when the car started moving by itself
mark nearly drove away himself lmao
made the group of you chase after the car for a moment lmAO
you wished he did drive off though because the second the car starting moving with everyone back on,
he yells,
“lET’S GET IT”
“siri where’s the nearest bus stop to get home”
“HSEGFSUEF NO I’M SORRY :C”
then as the day slowly got darker,
your screams didn’t die down lol
the latest feud was over chocolate vs vanilla
and you honestly think about how you got stuck in a group of dumbasses
“remember when hyuck hated jaemin and jeno back in freshman year lol”
“nO SHUT UP RENJUN”
“LMAO DIDN’T HYUCK DISLIKE THEM BECAUSE THEY CHUCKED A BASKETBALL AT HIS HEAD”
“what you still remember that? i’m sorry hyuck :’cccccc”
“NO JENO I’VE FORGIVEN YOU AGES AGO- FUCKING RENJUN-”
the group of dumbasses did make you laugh though
so maybe it wasn’t so bad
night then came and the conversation finally started to tone down
mark pulls to the side of the road 
“let’s call it a night, yeah?”
the rest of you mumble in agreement
“our last summer as high schoolers huh”
you hum, running your hands through jaemin’s freshly dyed candyfloss hair
“but will anything change even if you guys graduate?”
chenle asks from the back, head on jisung’s shoulder
“not much, i don’t think. we just won’t see each other as much.”
it was a clear night, and the stars were brighter than ever
everyone was staring up at the night sky, enjoying the cool breeze
“we always have summer right?”
a round of agreement sounded before jeno cuts through-
“does this mean we’re going on another road trip next year?”
“way to ruin the mood jeno”
“oh please no, i don’t think i can handle another one with you dumb fucks”
lies
you loved every moment with them
“this is a cute moment and all, but can jaemin get off of us now?”
renjun asked, referring to the long boy sprawled on top of jeno, renjun and you
“i was planning on sleeping in this position tho-”
he didn’t get to finish his sentence before the three of you pushed him off
mark chuckled before leaving his seat to pull the hood over the open seats
“good night”
you were shook awake by mark the next day, greeted with a sky that wasn’t even awake
“what’s going on?”
“fancy watching the sunrise?”
turns out, mark woke up earlier than the rest of you and drove to an empty beach to watch the sunrise together :’)))))))
you stumbled out of the car, legs soft from sitting for too long, finding the rest of the boys sitting on the hood of the car and on the concrete in front
donghyuck pats the space next to him and you hop on top of the creaky car
“is this safe”
“probably not”
“ o h “
it’s all quiet before the sun starts coming up
then gasps were heard and wishes were made
and it was all heartwarming :”)))))
before all of you made a dash to the cold ass water
trying to chuck mark in
“whY ME????? I DROVE Y’ALL HERE”
“YOU’RE LEAVING THAT’S WHY”
“SBRGOSBEGOSBAE??????”
S P L O S H
chenle was screaming the entire time
then one idiot cough hyuck cough accidentally chucks sand into mark’s blue car
which then leads to mark pulling the squad into a self wash station
“come one guys let’s wash this car together!!1!1! wE’rE aLl In ThIs ToGeThEr”
“wow i suddenly dont know you”
then some idiot coUGH HYUCK COUGH starts chucking suds at everyone
AND JAEMIN’S LOWKEY TRIGGERED BECAUSE NOT HIS NEW HAIR
SO HE FIRES BACK
AND RENJUN WHO WANTED TO HOSE THE SUDS OUT OF HIS HAIR ENDED UP FIRING WATER AT CHENLE’S FACE
EVERYONE STARTED LAUGHING LIKE NO TOMORROW AND YOU GOT A GOOD VIDEO OF IT LMAO
AND EVERYTHING JUST ENDED UP WITH EVERYONE GETTING A FREE SHOWER AT THE STATION
and renjun getting pinned to the car by jeno but u h 👀👀👀👀👀👀 
y’all end up drying yourselves by sitting under the hand dryers in the bathroom
“at least we don’t have to worry about showering”
“hyuck you started this shut up”
hopping back into the small car, the group decides to start heading back
mainly because your snack supplies were running low
but also because you don’t think the car’s gonna survive any longer
but mostly because snacks were running out
“chenle ate all the fucking pocky”
“nO JISUNG DID”
“WTF-”
“i love best friends throwing each other under the bus”
taking a shorter route home, you stop at a basketball court to move a around for a while
“why is jaemin and jeno on one team, they’re the star basketballers of our school tf i call bs”
“you literally picked your own team-”
nomin vs the rest of u fuckers
no surprise, nomin won
now you guys owe them mcnuggets
“hA SU C C”
“let’s leave them behind quiCK TO THE CAR”
mark: trips over own laces running
in no time, you were in front of your own house again
unlike before though, you lowkey didn’t want to leave your friends
“i still can’t believe that we ran out of snacks in a day and a half-”
“blame chenle”
“hEY-”
renjun pats your shoulder as jeno and jaemin go get your bag for you
“we’ll be living and sleeping at mark’s place until he leaves. you’re welcome to join”
mark from the driver’s seat: what.
and as they drive away with mark questioning when this was decided,
you head back inside to restock you bag, leaving for mark’s house just a few hours later
when high school started up again, you weren’t surprised to see renjun having chensung in headlock in front of your locker
whilst hyuck just whispers-
“right in front of my goddamn salad” at the sight
creaking open your locker, the first thing you do is stick up a group photo taken on your trip
nomin lean on your shoulders, craning their neck to look at the photo
“we look dumb”
the picture was taken by mark setting a timer on his phone then running to join the picture 
everyone was lined up, leaning against the old blue car against the sunrise
but mark bumped into haechan who bumped into jeno, who bumped into jaemin etc etc
and the picture ended up coming out with everyone slanting as y’all fell in a domino effect
but the smiles on your faces were precious :’))))))))
“i think it’s cute” 
you say, closing your locker, ready to face another year with these fuckers.
hi i’m apri and i present to you yet another unedited piece of shit :’)
listening to the dreamies’ album while writing this made me really emo about mark’s graduation so it got really deep in the middle im s o r r y
