“Shh,” Hongjoong whispered, cradling your head against his chest. “It’s going to pass, you’re going to be okay.”
This only ripped another wail from your chest, Hongjoong squeezing his eyes shut to keep his own tears at bay. His hands gently rubbed your back, encouraging you to breathe in time with each movement of his palm. It wasn’t working. It wasn’t working and Hongjoong had no idea what to do. You were shaking so much that he was worried you were about to pass out or throw up and at this point he didn’t know which was worse. He just knew that no matter what, he couldn’t let go of you.
He shouldn’t have come here alone when you were like this. He knew that it was just a mood swing, something that would pass with the right circumstances but he also knew that it wasn’t just a mood swing. It was the kind where one wrong move would send everything spiraling out of control. But he was here and you were safe and that was what mattered because Seonghwa and the boys would be here soon. He just had to hold out a little while longer.
“Hongjoong,” you gasped, shifting in his hold. He panicked but after a moment it became clear that you were only trying to get closer to him. He pulled you those last few centimetres closer and let you press your face to the crook of his neck, ignoring the wetness on his skin from your tears and snot.
“I’ve got you. I’ve got you baby, it’s okay,” he whispered.
The door slammed open, startling both of you enough that Hongjoong gasped and you jumped in his hold, whimpering as though someone had kicked you. Hongjoong turned his head and found that the boys were finally here, all of them staring until finally Seonghwa pushed forward, rushing towards you and Hongjoong and wrapping his arms around you.
“I’m here, we’re all here,” he whispered, squeezing Hongjoong’s arm tightly before pulling you into his lap, holding you close to him with your back up against his chest. Hongjoong knew that he wasn’t supposed to cry in front of the boys. He knew that he was supposed to be the strongest and that he had to take responsibility but the second he made eye contact with Seonghwa tears began to roll down his cheeks, his panic growing until he was sure it was going to suffocate him. “Yunho, get rid of everything.”
“Everything?” Yunho asked, all of the boys focused on Seonghwa’s instruction from where they were still frozen in the doorway, staring wide-eyed and nervous as Hongjoong rushed to get to them.
“He means knives and shit,” Jongho muttered, all of the boys moving at once to scour the apartment for anything dangerous to get rid of. Seonghwa shut his eyes, kissing your shoulder while cradling you as close as he could, rocking your body gently in an attempt to comfort you. A long whimper rose in your throat and was followed by an even longer wail, all of the boys freezing at the sound of it.
“Help, please,” you whimpered. “I don’t want to be here, please.”
Seonghwa took his chances and kissed your shoulder again.
“Do you need the hospital?” he asked, sighing when you shook your head. He was vaguely aware of the fact that the boys were done putting things away, now standing in various corners of the living room and watching you with expressions that would’ve brought Seonghwa to tears if he looked at them for too long. He took a deep breath, trying to remember the emergency plan he’d been walked through a few times before when you were stable. “Okay. Fuck, okay. How about our place? Can you make it there?”
“We can’t walk there,” you said, voice raising in pitch. You turned around in Seonghwa’s hold and stared at him with an expression that Seonghwa couldn’t describe, your eyes so irritated from crying that you could barely focus your sight on him. “Please, I won’t be able to, I won’t be able to walk there.”
“Taxi?” San suggested. Seonghwa noted the tremor in his voice. He waited for your response but he didn’t get one. He hoped that meant you were okay with taking a taxi because they didn’t have many options aside from that.
“I’m going to give you the medication you need-”
“No, I can’t-”
“I’ll count them for you,” Seonghwa reassured you, the breath knocked out of his chest when you threw yourself at him in a hug. “You don’t even have to look at them. You won’t even see them.”
Your silence was painful. Seonghwa took it as your consent again. He tried not to pay attention to the fact that Hongjoong was clinging to Wooyoung or to the fact that there were more than just two people crying now. It hurt to be here but Seonghwa didn’t want to imagine how much it would’ve hurt if something happened and they weren’t here. All they had to do was get you somewhere safe.
By the time you were in the taxi, your wails and complaints had died down into incoherent words and sobs that continued to rack your body even when it seemed like they had finally come to a stop. You were settled against Mingi now, your head against his shoulder and his head on top of yours while on your other side San was resting against you with his arms wrapped tightly around your own arm.
“Okay, we’re going to take the elevator up,” Hongjoong told you once the taxi came to a stop. His voice wasn’t as steady as it had been earlier but at least he wasn’t crying anymore. Seonghwa watched from a distance. He didn’t want to leave the two of you alone but he knew that crowding you was a bad idea. He kept an eye on you while Hongjoong kept his hand over your eyes and led you into the elevator, hugging you once you were safely inside.
“Something’s going to happen,” you choked out between sobs, gripping his shirt until your knuckles turned white.
“No, I’ve got you, nothing’s going to happen,” Hongjoong reassured you, sniffling a little as he pulled you closer. “You’re safe with me.”
He’d been right, managing to get you into their apartment unharmed and undisturbed for the most part, all of the boys letting out the breath they’d been holding when they saw that your distress had gone down somewhat during the elevator ride. Hongjoong finally let go of you completely, sticking to Seonghwa’s side like glue while the rest of the boys took care of you.
“Do you want the TV on?” Wooyoung asked, grabbing all of the remotes from the coffee table while Yunho and Jongho helped you settle into the sofa bed they’d set up without hurting yourself, seating themselves beside you. You nodded in response to Wooyoung’s question but didn’t manage any words, crying almost silently while San covered you up in a fluffy blanket they’d bought for situations like this, setting a stuffed toy he kept reserved for you on your lap before he sat down beside Yunho, leaning into his roommate in an attempt to dispel the worry that was making it hard for him to breathe. “Wanna watch cartoons?”
“There’s this new show that came out last week, it’ll be on in a few minutes,” Jongho suggested, resting his hand on your thigh while he waited for your answer. The answer he was waiting for never came but Wooyoung flipped to the channel Jongho mentioned just in case.
Before long everybody had taken up a spot in the living room, their eyes on the TV but more often than not drifting toward you until they realised that you’d fallen asleep. Tears began to well up in Hongjoong’s eyes at the sight of you and his boys sleeping, squeezed into the sofa together, before he let them fall shut. For once he was tired enough that he didn’t even consider staying up any longer, the comfort of knowing that you were safe being more than enough to lull him to a peaceful sleep.
When you woke up you were sweaty and warm and uncomfortable, a grunt of confusion and annoyance rising from your throat. Your eyes opened and you noticed that your entire face ached from all of the crying last night and your throat was sore from screaming. You also noticed that the reason you were so uncomfortable was because you’d been sandwiched in between Yunho and Jongho with a few more of the boys squeezed in on the sofa too, their limbs folded over each other in an attempt to be closer to you. Some of them had succeeded - Yeosang’s hand was holding tightly onto yours, stretched over Jongho’s side, and Mingi had made the decision to sleep slumped against the sofa on the floor, his arm resting on top of you and gripping the blanket right on top of where your knee was.
The discomfort quickly melted into a warm feeling of gratitude and contentment. Not only had you survived the night but here you were, tucked away between the people who had helped you through it and who loved you most. You shut your eyes again and fell back asleep, vaguely aware of Hongjoong pressing a kiss to your forehead on his way to the kitchen before you slipped back into your dreams.

Mafia!Ateez reaction to s/o being abused by her family
Warnings: READ AT YOUR OWN RISK domestic abuse, bruises, scars, toxic family behaviour, manipulation, torture, mentions of blood, smoking, murder, death
I'm so sorry if this made you uncomfortable, my dms are always open if you want to talk about anything
Requested by @racheloveyunho
It only gets darker and longer with the next member
Hongjoong
He came home early so you weren't prepared and were wearing a tanktop with shorts
He saw the bruises on your back and thighs
When he asked you about it later that day, you sobbed and told him that your brothers beat you because you insisted on moving in with Hongjoong
Would pretend that it didn't affect him but on the inside he's furious
He himself doesn't like to physically discipline anyone unless it is necessary or they get on his nerves and bring him to that point
How dare they lay a finger on you
He wouldn't change his behaviour with you, he'd be his usual caring self, all the while planning to knock some sense into your brothers
He laid a trap for your brothers to fall right into and met with them personally
He's a reasonable man so he started with talking to them but when they didn't listen and called him slurs he threatened to murder them
They knew Hongjoong was a part of a mafia and didn't want to anger him any further
They promised him that they would treat you better
Seonghwa
You told him you tripped and fell while you were packing your things to move in with him and that's how you got the bruise on your head and a busted lip
He bought it honestly because he's soft for you and couldn't see you like that so his focus was to get you the medical treatment you needed
You were happy with him and spent almost all of your time with him but he didn't want to hold you back form meeting your friends and family
You were ecstatic to meet your friends but not your family
They hurt you after all
So when he had someone drop you off to your family house, you were nervous but still went inside to meet them
What you got was taunts and verbal abuse
When you tried convincing them that Seonghwa was indeed very kind and loving towards you, they hit you so hard, you lost your balance and your back hit the glass corner of the table which you tried holding onto and ended up scratching your upper arm, drawing blood
You were shocked and hurt and ran out of the house
You hailed a taxi and went to your friend's house and told Seonghwa to pick you up from there
When he came home that night, you were already asleep
In the morning he woke up and found you in the kitchen at the brink of tears and you cheek was a little swollen and purplish
He asked you what happened but you said you liked hanging out with your friends yesterday and these were tears of joy and that your swollen cheek was because you ran into a glass wall
He believed you like always and wrapped his arms around you to pull you into an embrace and accidentally put pressure on the bruise on your back from yesterday
You yelped and arched your back
This time he didn't ask you but lifted your shirt to see for himself, despite your protests and was shocked to say the least
He made you feel comfortable enough to tell him that it was your family's doing
He reassured you that everything will be okay and that you could stay with him forever
That night he paid your family a visit after you went to sleep
They never contacted you again
Yunho
Your family was very religious and never really messed with you because Yunho made it very clear how protective he was towards you
Any bitter comment from your family would earn them a death glare from Yunho
He'd stare them down until they got super uncomfortable
Nobody knew what he was capable of, other than the fact that he was involved with a mafia
Your family wanted you to stay away from him but you loved him and he had promised to protect you and shield you from the mafia life
Yunho's girlfriend had no face, no one in the mafia world had ever seen you
One day you were visiting your family to celebrate your sister's birthday
You felt unwelcomed, you own blood was making you feel uncomfortable
When the guests had left and it was time to open the presents, your brother told you to go home
You were embarrassed but tried to reason with him that you guys were family
He started saying hurtful things and called you a slut and accused you of selling yourself to a dirty mafia rat who kills people for a living. He said you are nothing but his whore and he will replace you one day when he is tired of you and then you will have no one to turn to because they didn't consider you family anymore
You got up and went to the home. The home Yunho had made in the middle of a dense forest to hide you and came to see you almost every day
Yunho had decided to complete his work in advance today so he could spend more time with you in the next days, since you said you would be at your family house today
You unlocked the door and went in crying. You were wailing so hard that you laid on the floor in the lobby
You screamed when you felt someone grab you by your arms and made you sit up
Yunho looked at you in shock and worry, you nuzzled your face in the crook of his neck and cried your heart out, not caring if you were being loud and looking like a mess
You didn't need to tell him what had happened because he was aware your family had something to do with this
You woke up in bed the next day, feeling numb but had a severe headache
You looked around the room and saw a shirtless Yunho starting outside the window, you called out to him "Yunho..."
"I don't want to know what they did or said. I'm never ever going to allow you to meet them again. It took everything I had in me to stop from murdering them because I don't want to hurt you, but I can't have anyone else hurting you either"
He turned around and looked furious, you had only once seen him this angry when a spy from another mafia broke into your house and tried to stab you. Yunho had ripped his jaw off of his face with his bare hands in front of you and you fainted from shock from the intensity of the situation
Right now he had the same look on his face and you didn't want to anger him any further
Yeosang
He had never been the one to talk a lot
His calm and collected nature made people underestimate him
Your family used to love Yeosang and were supportive of your relationship with him, they were happy when you moved in with him, but that was before they knew who he was
Only you knew that Yeosang was a cold blooded killer. He was his gang's ace, he was sharp, very intelligent and very manipulative, not to mention he was the second most strongest member and was very good with weapons, his speciality being butterfly knives. He killed people the bad guys and felt no remorse. His gang members often joke that he only feels two emotions, rage when the bad guys cause menace and love towards you.
He got you pregnant and you were now worried but Yeosang had reassured you that no one in this world will ever lay a finger on you as long as he is by your side. He made you feel safe and loved. He didn't trust anyone to help you around the house so he stayed home to help you.
One day your family came over to meet you and ask after you unannounced, you being 7 months pregnant, were home alone
They wanted to see your huge house, you were nervous because you didn't want them to see some rooms but couldn't keep up with them because you got tired from walking
Then the unthinkable happened, they saw everything. They saw Yeosang's training room, his collection of knives and bulletin boards with photos of people, nasty looking people. One board had two sets of photos of the same person, one photo was for Yeosang to know who to attack and the other photo of the same person killed by him. Yeosang never wanted you to see the contents of the room, let alone your family.
They told you to come with them and to leave Yeosang but you tried to tell them that you were more than okay and wanted to stay with him
It all happened too fast, your father grabbed you by your arm, dragged you outside and forced you to sit in the car while your mother pleaded to him to not shove you around like that in this state. They didn't drive home, they were fleeing the city to get as far away from Yeosang as possible
You were screaming, your parents paid no attention to you, they thought you were protesting but actually you were screaming because of the excruciating pain you were experiencing. You were bleeding and your mom had noticed it but they were on a highway and there was no hospital nearby. They couldn't do anything about it so they kept driving out of the city, your father hoping the child would die in your womb because he now hated Yeosang and wouldn't be able to love his child either.
You fainted and after 2 hours of driving, they got to a hospital. No one knew but you were carrying twins, sadly one of them had died in your womb while the other was born healthy. You were now fighting for your life. Your parents were scared for you and afraid of being tracked down by Yeosang.
You and your baby spent a month in the hospital and recovered enough for your parents take you with them
On the other side Yeosang was on the verge of a mental breakdown. He was out looking for you, now scared and confused and in rage. He didn't know who had taken you away and was frustrated and tired but he couldn't let you go. You were the love of his life and the only person in the world who ever loved him.
He got a lead on you and within hours was outside the house where your parents were hiding you.
He broke in the house in the middle of the night and found you crying on the bed with a sleeping child by your side. He instantly became soft at the sight, all the rage he had in him was replaced by love. He softly called to you and you whipped your head up and instantly ran to him.
You begged him not to harm your parents and he couldn't say no. He silently took you and his month old son back home in the dead of the night
San
San was not one person, he had two kinds of personalities, one was a ruthless assassin and the other, a passionate lover. Both personalities had him being manipulative in common
He absolutely hated your family because you were a free spirit and liked taking risks while they were the complete opposites and often tried holding you back but you always loved an adventure and that's how you ended up with Choi San.
You dispised your family the same as they did you. You were so used to the beating that you felt nothing now. Profanities were very common too and you wanted nothing but to slap each and every one of them and run away.
You were head over heals for him the moment he crossed paths with you but you didn't show that to him. He tried manipulating you into getting you to sleep with him but you knew better and brushed him off
He was used to women being on their knees for him so you not doing that was a challenge for him and he was hell bent on getting you to like him
He was going crazy over you and started meeting you at your workplace during his missions, like he had to kill a man in 30 minutes but he just had to see you first
When you weren't giving in to his art of seduction, he tried a different way
He asked you out like a decent human being and you said yes, wow that was easy, right?
No, you made him work hard for your love and affection and he was obsessed with making you happy to feel loved by you and by the time San realized what was going on, it was too late
He was madly in love with you and practically drooling over you
He finally asked you to move in with him and you said yes even though you knew your family would disapprove. You went home and packed your stuff and tried to leave but your family members didn't let you leave and in an effort of saving you from inevitable destruction which was Choi San, they beat you to the point you passed out.
They texted San from your phone, pretending to be you and told him to stay away and leave you alone, that you wanted nothing to do with him.
San was confused and scared when he got that text from you and texted you back to take your time and rethink your decision.
You woke up in your room at some point during the night, unable to open one eye because it had been bruised badly. Your head was bleeding and the blood had dried on your face. You left leg hurt a lot because of you lying in an unnatural position. You didn't have your phone or anything else
You felt empty and all you wanted was to be in San's loving embrace
It was now or never
You escaped from your window and somehow managed to get to San's front door, it was almost morning
You knocked on his door and called for him
He opened the door after some time and took in your form
He was in too much rage but he had to tend to you first
A few weeks later he came home and told you that he made sure your family is now in another city far away from you and won't contact you again
A tear slipped down your face, you were free from their torment
You kissed San and thanked him
He would do anything to make you happy
Mingi
Mingi was the notorious mafia leader who has connections with the government and the dark world
He had money and fame (the good and bad kind) and all that was missing was love and you filled that void
He loved you too much and would never let anyone hurt you
People knew better
So your own family, your own blood hurting you for wanting to live with Mingi didn't sit well with him
He was distracted at work and all he could see was your face, your tear filled eyes, your bruised arm and your distraught state
He wished he had sent someone to get you from your family house sooner so you didn't have to go through the abuse
He wished you never told them about it and just moved in with him
You were in his home, resting in his bed, thinking about what had happened
Did they really didn't see any good in Mingi?
Did they really have to hit you?
Did you do the right thing?
These thoughts flooded your mind and you were just as distracted
Mingi came home in a hurry and told you to come with him
You asked him where you guys are going and he says we're going to get back at them
He took you to your house and barged right in, unannounced
Seeing Mingi in person was overwhelming and your family were scared, pleading to him to let them go
Mingi told them that he was going to kill them for hurting you and there was panic and chaos
You came to stand next to him, squeezed his hand and softly told him that you want to go home
He couldn't say no to you so he warned them that this isn't over and took you home
You talked to Mingi and convinced him to let them go because they were your family after all
He's the one who said that if the loved toy and cared for you, they wouldn't hurt you like this and family doesn't mean you have to tolerate this kind I'd behavior when you're old enough to make decisions for yourself
You kissed him and wondered why couldn't your family see the good in him
Wooyoung
It started off with you slowly telling your folks about what Wooyoung did for a living
You were smart, so you didn't tell them about his business until you moved in with him otherwise they would have disapproved
You didn't mention that he tortured people and killed them without remorse, no, you said that he works with an organization that eliminates evil people which was true in essence
Your family was having none of it
They wanted you as far away from him as possible
You loved him and he loved you but they didn't believe it
They kept you from leaving the house and since Wooyoung was away for some time on a mission he didn't know
It was only when he got home that he found out that you hadn't returned, but he didn't think much of it because you were with your family
You on the other hand were panicking not only because you were being forced to stay away from Wooyoung but also because you just found out that you were pregnant
You had to get back to him no matter what
You refused to eat or talk to your family members, only demanding to meet Wooyoung
When he didn't get any message from you he began to get suspicious
He sent someone disguised as a delivery boy over to your house to check up on you and got word that you were sick and locked in your room
He got up and drove to your house in the middle of the night and broke through the front door. He didn't care who got in his way and pushed and punched whoever protested
He got to your room and demanded that you open it
You did and jumped at him, told him you were pregnant and they were keeping you from going back to him and cried
He took you in his arms and was taking you back with him
Your father threatened to call the police and Wooyoung simply said "say hi to chief inspector Jeon from me" leaving the father shocked
You were happy to be back with your lover and were excited about the baby, the same as Wooyoung
Jongho
Probably the strongest man in the whole mafia world
Everyone feared him
He didn't have to say twice for what he wanted because people had heard how he smashed someone's skull open with his bare fists
He had asked you to move in with him and you happily said yes
But when you told your family about your decision they asked you if you were crazy
You didn't listen to them and started packing
They weren't going to let you go to some barbarian
But you weren't listening so they had to do it the hard way
Deep down you were happy to leave because your family had always been abusive and toxic
When you were asked to leave with your suitcases your father grabbed you by your arm and shoved you against the wall
"you bitch, you really think you can disobey me?"
Your mother held you by your hair and slapped you so hard your nose started bleeding
They beat you severely and you had stopped screaming at this point
You thought you were going to die when they left you like this on the kitchen floor
You don't know what got into you but you got on your feet and ran out the front door where you were stopped by Jongho waiting for you beside his car
He saw you and gently pushed you aside and went straight inside the house
He came out after almost 20 minutes, blood splattered on his face and clothes
You were already in shock from the beating that you didn't question him
He got in the car with you, held your face in his hands and said "don't worry, I called an ambulance for them, they just might be okay"
With that your heart sank but you were too shaken to feel sad for them so you just cried
Jongho took you home

Silence - Seonghwa
Member: Seonghwa Genre: Comfort, Fluff, mild angst?  Requested: Yes Word count: 3.7k Content: Insecurities when it comes to picking at skin and lips. Seonghwa wants to help you. Food mention. The rest of the boys are touchy as heck. Stress.  Note: This thing is long winded cause a close friend requested this so I wanted to make this something that they can read whenever it hits them especially when their stress is high. Also since this is comfort fic that they requested, I won’t tag for their privacy. The same goes for any comfort fic that might be requested in the future. 
There was something about you today that Seonghwa couldn’t help but notice. He knows how stressed you’ve been lately. Too many things are happening at once in your life, and while you could manage a smile that reaches your eyes whenever someone asks if you were okay, the spark you put in your eyes dims once when they look away. Whenever you look at anything, your focus just isn't there. It was one thing to look at something and focus on it but it was another to look at it and look as if there was nothing. 
This goes on for the next few days as he notices more things. You did say you didn’t mind physical affection and to an extent it was true. The moments where the boys come up to you with a hug, you welcome it, the moments where they lean their head against your shoulder, you welcome it. But when one of them try to reach for your hand, you find ways to slip away from doing so, sometimes opting to fiddle with your phone or with the zipper of your hoodie, just anything to give yourself an excuse to not hold hands with them. 
A part of him wants to think it was because of how your exams were making you stressed and fidgety. He remembers how clammy you can get when you’re overwhelmed with your workload in the past. Yet another part of him counters that claim, even when you aren’t occupied with your responsibilities, you still slip away. You were a sneaky one in his books. For now, he’d support you quietly as you tackle each and every exam that lay ahead of your week. 
On the late night study sessions you pull in living room, he would put a bottle of water by you and some snacks to help keep you alert and awake. After Hongjoong came into his life, he knew better than to argue with someone hardheaded. “Don’t forget to drink water too okay? You’ve been focused on that subject since this afternoon.” He says while his fingers thread through your hair, gently massaging your scalp. 
“I just want to do well, Seonghwa.” You admit with a tired sigh. You lean back into his touch and somehow Seonghwa couldn’t help but think of you as a kitten who found relief with scratches on their head. 
“And you will. Pace yourself okay?” He lets go of your head gently, pressing a quick peck on the top of your head. “I’m going to bed already, get some sleep also after that.” He advises while he stretches his back. 
Your eyes graze at the amount of notes you’ve had spread across the table. “I’ll try.” You say, and even to yourself, it doesn’t sound promising. The stern look he gives you was enough for you to retract your statement. “Okay, okay. I will. Just wake me up when you do please?” Even if the exam is in two days and you’ve already covered a good percentage of the coverage, you just didn’t feel like it’s enough yet. 
A sigh slips through the male’s lips and he nods. He can’t win with two stubborn heads in his life. “Fine. Good night..” Thus leaving you on your own with your notes. 
So you continue to study, until you raise the white flag. You pack your notes in between the textbook, put away the bowl then head to bed. 
The sleep you had feels more like a nap as Seonghwa gently shakes you awake. “Morning.. I made you breakfast.” He whispers, waiting for you to get up. At least you weren’t as difficult as San to wake up in the morning. Those words are enough to get you up from your still sleepy haze. The older male couldn’t help but chuckle softly at your excitement over his cooking, letting you get ready as he prepares your first meal of the day. 
If you weren’t in school, you were with the boys but even then, you were reviewing. Your fingers constantly fidgeting against your own skin as you try to focus. Sometimes one of them would attach themselves to you, a welcomed distraction before more concepts melt your brain. But whenever you find yourself relaxing from their touch, their fingers would always brush upon yours and it always wakes you up, pulling away from them a little more. Even if Seonghwa had to do damage control with Wooyoung and San bickering, he easily notices your discomfort along with Yunho’s pout when you pull away. Before he could say anything, Wooyoung and San were back to bickering about what to play, causing him to turn his attention back to the two. 
It’s clockwork from then on. Seonghwa preparing your meals day in and day out throughout the week. You getting next to no sleep as you prepare for each exam but as the week progresses, your mental state declines. You were starting to get impatient easily, you were berating yourself over the smallest errors, you even shy away from any sort of physical contact even if it was your love language. It was clear that you were on tunnel vision now. The stress was starting to take a toll on you and Seonghwa had to do something about it before you break.
The stress peaks when you are holding your head in your hands. Your nails dig into your skin as you try to keep your composure. Nothing in your notes was making sense anymore. Everything just seemed like jargon. He had your usual bottle of water and snacks in hand when he entered the room and saw your current disposition. He sets them down quietly and slips himself next to you. 
He quietly calms you down: arms around you, hushing you like a parent would to their child when they were crying uncontrollably. You weren’t. You couldn’t get yourself to cry. The only thing in your system were the equations, theories, definitions, and the connections of one topic to another. “I’m here. Hey, talk to me..” He gently urges as he moves himself into your line of vision. You turn your teary face away from his line of sight as you try to regain your composure. Your fingers find themselves threaded through your now messy hair as you try to train your blurry eyes at your notes. Holy fuck why is nothing getting into your brain? 
With a sigh, Seonghwa gently turns you to him, letting you cry against his chest. It’s obvious that you aren’t in the right state to talk so he whispers reassuring promises. “You’ll be okay.” He says softly into your ear as he rubs your back up and down. You were still shaking from the stress and how you were pretty much going through a breakdown. “Can you follow my breathing?” He asks softly as he brushes your hair delicately away from your face. Though you don’t reply, you try to focus your attention on his breathing, a feeble attempt to get your heart to slow down. Your tears and whimpers eventually stop and you still in his arms. “Do you want to sleep in my bed tonight?” His voice never raises in pitch or volume. You nod at his offer. He asks once more if you would rather be carried to bed or stand on your own. You opt for the latter, not that it surprises him. You were a strong one after all. But the strong ones sometimes had their down days. 
He walks you to his bed and almost immediately you plop yourself onto it. He tries to remember how your schedule would go tomorrow. Saturday. Rest day. He sighs in relief. He brings a bottle of water for you when you wake up. For tonight, your solace was in his bed and in his arms. 
You wake up with a pounding headache. The thin sunlight telling you that it was morning. A dry groan as you try to push away the headache as you shift. Your hands feel the material beneath you and it hits you that this isn’t your bed. You look to your side and you're greeted by Seonghwa’s sleeping face. That’s when you remember what went on last night. “Shit.” You mutter, sitting up immediately. “What day is it?” You groan out, disoriented by the sudden rush of blood. 
“Saturday. Your rest day.” Seonghwa returns, his voice raspy from having just woken up. You turn to the male who rubs his eyes awake then reaches for the bottle of water. “Drink. I’ll make us breakfast.” Glad to know it wasn’t only San who seems to go straight to the point when they wake up. You take the bottle and watch him stagger to the kitchen. 
After freshening up, you see that your notes lay untouched. Some of the notes had tear stains, a reminder of what happened. Considering what had went on last night, you figured it was better to keep these out of your sight for the rest of the day. By the time the male calls for you to eat, you’ve put your notes on your table. 
“Eat.” he says almost as an order. It was a hearty meal: rice, egg, meat, oatmeal and fruits. 
“Did you just make an entire course?” 
“Considering how you’ve worked your ass off the past few days leading to exam week. I have to step it up for you.” Seonghwa says as he slides onto his seat across yours, digging into his own meal. You look at your share in guilt but you start to eat as thanks. “You know..” He starts as his eyes stay on his meal. “Working hard is one thing but working yourself senseless is another thing.” He continues. “Getting good grades is important, sure but at the price of your own health?” His frustration was built from concern for your welfare and your recent habits.  “Maybe that exam is important sure but really... Your health is more important.” He goes on.
No wonder his members found him scary when he was angry. He means well but you can’t help but be focused on your academics. That’s the environment you grew up in, unlearning that mentality was going to be hard. “I’m sorry.” You say softly as you eat quietly. You looked like a sad kitten that just got into a fight with their sibling. 
He sighs. “Don’t be. I know how hard headed and driven you are. It’s like juggling two Hongjoongs.” It was a joke just to make you smile even a bit. “I’m just really worried for you.” 
“If it helps, I kept my notes for the day.” 
“Thank god.” 
That makes you laugh. Feeling light for the first time in a while, you finish the food in a better disposition. The rest of the day goes by quietly and for the first time in a while, you find yourself completely relaxed. Seonghwa notices this before you do. Your fingers weren’t fidgety and you just look like you were at peace with your surroundings. He smiles to himself and slides next to you. 
“Wanna play Overcooked?”
The following week goes by almost like a breeze. While you reviewed, you’d talk about it to Seonghwa to test yourself. Even if he didn’t understand any of these concepts you speak of, if it helps you then so be it. He asks you questions on certain topics, making sure you’ve covered everything. It does help you. Sure there were some topics that were tricky but you managed to get through the tests with a little more confidence than before. You had to thank Seonghwa after your exams. By the time you were done with your final exam, you felt a little dazed. A huge weight was off your shoulders and quite frankly, you couldn’t believe it. In your dazed state, you don’t realize your fingers against your lips, unconsciously playing with the skin. It was only when you tasted the iron on your lips that you realize the extent. So you suck on your lip, as you walk home. 
On the way home, you couldn’t help but stop by a few shops to buy some snacks for yourself and Seonghwa. In one shop, you find yourself with front row seats to a couple’s PDA. On normal days, this wouldn’t have affected you but considering how you are now and your nervous ticks have affected you, it hits you harder than usual. You tear your eyes away from them, opting to look at your phone, thinking if there was anything else you think Seonghwa would like. It was a good distraction but it still lingers in your mind. 
“I’m home.” You say as you put the snacks you bought on the counter. Seonghwa manages to welcome you with a proud smile. “Bought you some snacks too.” You add, gesturing to his strawberry milk tea among other things. While he was happy with your purchases, he catches the exhaustion in your eyes. 
“You look like you need rest..” He takes the food you bought for him and also ushers you gently to the living room. He has you sit down on the couch, before he does as well. The way you just drop yourself onto the couch, your eyes trained up on the ceiling as your body practically melts onto the material has the male sighing. 
“What?”
His eyes are trained at you. His gaze heavy with emotions that he had to keep at the back burner for your sake. “You know, I’ve been worried about you since you’ve been preparing for your exams.” He explains and you already know where this was going. Already defensive, you keep your hands in your pockets as you continue to keep your eyes up. The corner of your bottom lip is caught in between your teeth and it makes your dear friend tread carefully. “The boys asked me the other day,” he says slowly. “If you didn’t like holding hands with people.. I meant like, is it something you really don’t like to do with just us or really anyone..?” God why is it now that his speaking skills were going down the drain?
You had to admit, hearing him flounder for the right words was a little endearing. How were you going to tell him though that your evasion to holding hands was due to insecurities? The insecurities only rising when someone’s hand brushes against yours, when someone’s eyes flit to your bitten lips, when you see couples on the streets express their love to each other. Quite frankly, you found it so shallow and stupid to be this conscious but you couldn’t help it. The amount of times you wonder how it would be to be with someone, that question leads you to the imagery of being physically affectionate with them too. 
“I just don’t like the idea of having anyone hold my hands that have been roughened by stress, I guess.” Even to you, you didn’t sound that convincing. You look at your hand, lit by the lamp near you. You could see the picked skin: some healing, some freshly picked at. They feel rough and downright uncomfortable. With the boys, they were already mere friends but they want to hold your hand, what more with a potential lover? 
“What do you mean?” Seonghwa never really expected this type of answer from you. His eyes drift from your tired features to the digits that are up against the light. 
“Don’t you think it’s gross, Seonghwa? The idea of holding someone’s hand that’s been picked at from stress or unconsciously? Cause I’m looking at my hands right now and I can even feel the unevenness from my lips too and even I don’t want anyone touching these.” You admit with a dry laugh. 
It hurts him to know you see yourself like such. The way he sees you was far from it. He admired everything about you. Especially how you’re able to create things with your hands. How deft and agile you can be with your hands to get things done. How your lips were always expressive of your emotions. He realized how seeing your lips curve into a smile or how they let you laugh without a care in the world was his favorite. While others do say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, he wanted you to change that mindset one way or another. The boys saw you in an amazing light and for you to not see yourself as such, it sucks. 
“Look at me..” Seonghwa says after a moment. You do, you drop your hand and you had a hard time reading his expression. “Do you trust me?” He asks.
“Seonghwa, if you’re going to give me some sort of gag gift from Wooyoung I swear--”
“I’m being serious, do you trust me?” 
They weren’t joking when they say Seonghwa’s scary so you nod. “Yeah, I trust you.” You answer. So he pats the space in between you and him, gesturing for you to come closer. So you do. Your knees touching his from how close the two of you were sitting. He takes a deep breath, his heart racing but there weren’t any thoughts in his head except to reassure you. To reassure you that these perceived flaws will not be a big deal to the ones that love you unconditionally. His hands reach up to your cheeks, thumbs running gently against your cheeks. He brings his lips to gently graze against your forehead, to your cheeks, for a split moment you thought you would feel his lips against yours by how close he was to you but he presses a final kiss on your chin. He respects you so much to go past the boundaries of your friendship so he settles to end the kisses with one on your chin. 
“We don’t mind your imperfections. I’m sure as hell that I don’t. Holding hands, to the boys and to me, is a way we show our appreciation.” His hands drop to his lap. “While yes, hugs, snuggles, nuzzling against you do express those. Have you ever understood why holding hands have been a little different?” 
You shake your head. You always thought that such action would be for couples, always opting to link arms instead with your peers. His hands are then facing up, asking for your hands in his. You hesitate but slowly, you let your guard down, you let your hand rest on top of his. “Holding hands..” He trails off slowly as his hand slowly slips into yours. He doesn’t let your hands come into your line of sight.  The insecurity of seeing how your hand looks was already understood in the first mention. “Is intimate. A soft way of saying, ‘I care about you. I don’t want to lose you. I want you by my side. Be with me in this situation.’  A reassurance. A sign of support. A sign of hope.” As he lists these various reasons, his hand would eventually shift around your hand, holding your hand in his in different ways. In one moment, his hand held yours tenderly, then his fingers interlaced with yours, then he’s linking his pinky with yours. He goes on to give your hand a gentle squeeze. 
“If you’re worried about how someone will think of kissing these lips of yours.” he adds, making you look at him with a gentle nudge of his free hand. “You really shouldn’t worry about it.” He explains with a light chuckle. “The first kiss is rarely an ideal kiss.” Well, he had a point. “The succeeding kisses? They’re still an act of love. Though more intimate, I should say as compared to holding hands.” His eyes flit to your lips for a moment. He does understand your insecurities. He’s been there too; could barely look at his own face on any reflective surface. He didn’t see himself as someone visually appealing. It takes time and he knows that. “Will you let me help you? Help you through these habits and insecurities?” he asks, pulling back from you but still not letting go of your hand. You look at him, feeling oddly naked and vulnerable under his gaze but you nod. A glimmer of his usual bright self peeks through afterwards. 
Without being able to see your hand in his, you bore your watery eyes onto the folds of his shirt. You couldn’t get yourself to look at his eyes, at his face, right now you felt so vulnerable, so naked and only because he had pressed kisses and held your hand. You didn’t see how he smiles warmly at you. 
The next few days were calmer. Your skin is still healing from the picking you’ve done before that talk. It was the days after that proved to be a challenge. You were so focused with your readings that you don’t realize your fingers moving against your skin, trying to remove the uneven bumps that form as it heals. Seonghwa notices though so he brings a book with him and sits next to you. He even brought you a bottle of water with your favorite cake. The movement causes you to stutter in your mindless movement, bringing you momentarily out of your focus. Your eyes sparkle at the snack near you but you manage to focus on your work again with no problem. Seonghwa continues to look as if he was reading, thoroughly interested in what Thomas More thought of what a Utopian society could be. Without missing a beat, his hand slips into the hand that picks and fidgets. He pretends to not notice you looking at him with pink cheeks as he continues to read, pretending as if the book piqued his interest. His fingers intertwined with yours stops you from picking your skin and you reach for the bottle of water that he had already uncapped. It was only then that you realized how much you needed water. The beverage provides cool relief to your body and your lips. 
You don’t notice how your lips have healed from the water he reminds you to drink, from the lip balms he suggests you try, but he does. He sees the improvement, one step at a time. 
As thanks, you squeeze his hand gently. A silent thank you. 
He squeezes your hand in return. A silent reassurance and a silent declaration of his love for you.

Their S/O Forgives Them For Cheating//ATEEZ
Tumblr media
(A/N: This was supposed to be out at 8pm but my family got a new kitten and I’ve been dealing with it so here is my Angsteez reaction/scenario that it a bit unedited :^))
Trigger warning, just in case: self/bodily harm, cheating
Tumblr media
Hongjoong
Despite your blank face, eyes dull and staring straight through Hongjoong’s kneeling form in front of the sofa where you sat, he was a wreck. You’ve seen him cry on many occasions, but never like this: eyes red and puffy with never ending tears staining his cheeks until they dripped from his chin, nose runny and lips trembling as he let out sobs with a barely coherent ‘I’m sorry’ between them.
You were conflicted. You could feel your eyes burning with the desire to cry while your chest tightened in a mixture of sadness and rage, but your mind was littered with questions, specifically what you could have possibly done wrong. Hongjoong was no better, mentally preparing for you to walk away from him for good, but wrapping his arms around your waist as he buried his face in your lap in hopes it’ll make you stay, knowing that possibility would be one in a million.
That is, until you spoke.
“I… I feel like I shouldn’t be with you if I’m not enough for you… But, after three years together, I just can’t see myself with anyone else.”
He thought you were crazy for even forgiving him, but he wasn’t going to take this second chance for granted. Scrambling to sit at your side without removing his arms from you, Hongjoong took a deep breath to finally speak to you properly.
“I don’t deserve you, at all, but I swear to you I’ll never fuck up like this again.”
Seonghwa
“What about him? Don’t you think he’s attractive?” Seonghwa said quietly to you, your body shrinking further into the bar’s booth, eyes following his hand to see a guy sitting just a few feet away. He was pretty cute, but nothing like Seonghwa.
You were uncomfortable being there, dressed like some heiress as your boyfriend tried to find someone for you to sleep with for the night. You couldn’t lie and say you weren’t hurt by Seonghwa cheating on you for the past few weeks, you even went as far as to shatter his phone after finding the text messages, but did he really think you fucking someone else was the only solution? You loved him, which was more than obvious, so he should’ve known you’d never be able to willingly cheat with anyone.
“Seonghwa, I think I’m going to head home.” You said with a sigh, standing slowly to keep the already skin tight dress from exposing anymore of your body, Seonghwa following your lead as he eagerly rushed to your side.
“No! Baby, please, just pick anybody. It can be a kiss, you can fuck them in the middle of the room for all I care. I just need us to be even so we can put this behind us.”
You grimaced as you pushed past him and straight to the exit, ignoring the way he hurriedly ran after you and followed close behind as you walked down the street towards your shared apartment. Was he stupid or just insane? There was no “getting even” and, if he thought this was the only logical solution, you had to be the one to point out its flaws.
“(Y/n)-“
“You said anybody, right? Why don’t I just fuck San? Or Hongjoong?” You snapped, both of you coming to a stop as you turned to face him, his eyes wide at the question but jaw clenched in anger.
“That’s different. They’re like brothers to me.”
“So it would hurt you less if I fucked a complete stranger behind your back?”
The way he glanced away, trying to hide the rage he felt made you laugh bitterly.
“See, you don’t want me with anyone but you, yet made the stupid plan to choose someone I could sleep with to ease your guilty conscious.”
“If it’s with a stranger, it wouldn’t be as personal.”
“You cheated on me with a complete stranger and I took it very personal.”
Silence.
Finally, since this entire ordeal began, you watched as he broke down, his body shaking from ragged breathes and controlled sobs. Seonghwa took small steps towards you until your bodies were practically touching, his eyes finally meeting yours.
Seonghwa couldn’t stand the idea of you being with anyone else, but the hypocrisy of his actions made him put his pride aside just long enough for the idea to seem realistic enough. But now that you made it clear it was never going to work, he was back at square one: guilty, confused, and struggling for some kind of solution.
“I don’t know what you want me to do, or what I need to do, but I don’t want to lose you. I love you more than anything in this world. And I know I screwed up, but I’m willing to do anything because I need you, (Y/n/n).”
You couldn’t help but look away, eyes stinging with unshed tears as you realized you couldn’t keep up this façade any longer. No matter how angry you were, and how much you wanted to punish Seonghwa for what he’d done, you didn’t want to leave him either. And finally hearing some kind of remorse from him, was enough to make you drop the days long torture session.
“I wanted you to be honest and faithful to me. I love you to hell and back to the point that you have me wrapped around your finger, but I barely have any hold on you. And, even though I know you won’t ever be 100% mine, and that I can’t trust you as much as I used to, I can’t let you go either.”
You didn’t try to fight him off as he pulled you into a tight embrace, letting out a deep sigh of relief as he accepted your forgiveness, unsure of how he got so lucky after fucking up so bad.
Yunho
You had to admit, it felt like you were hit by a sledgehammer the way your eyes read over the Ateez groupchat, all of the boys shaming Yunho for sleeping with someone else, warning him that he had to tell you eventually. But it felt like a sledgehammer with spikes hit you as you stood before him, watching the gentle giant break down into loud sobs, the remorse on his face and lacing his voice causing your heart to ache.
Yunho wasn’t sure what got into him, or why he would do something so stupid, but he did it. It happened only two weeks ago but it played in his head every second of the day, tears forming in his eyes whenever you happily hugged him or told him how much you loved him. He felt like a monster.
“There’s nothing I can do to take back what I did, and I’m so sorry I was the one that did this to you. I don’t deserve to be with you. You deserve someone who won’t betray your trust.” You sighed as his large frame sank to the ground, kneeling at your feet with his forehead pressed to the wooden floor as he continued on with his apology.
“Yunho, stand up.” You said quietly, crouching slightly to grasp his arm and bring him back up, his tear stained face meeting yours immediately.
“You have to break up with me.” You wanted to roll your eyes, thinking he was a drama queen but you knew this was probably killing him inside, just as much as it was killing you. But, for some reason, you didn’t mind.
As soon as he was standing once more, you stood on your toes to cup his face, wiping a few stray tears before giving a soft smile.
“I’m not leaving you, but I’m not forgiving you right away either. We’re both feeling pretty shitty about it so why don’t we just talk this out before making any more decisions?”
In less than a second, you were consumed in a bear hug, your face being littered with random kisses and more tears. Your emotional giant of a boyfriend more than willing to take the opportunity to keep you with him.
Yeosang
“I’m so sorry.” Yeosang said, almost in an emotionless tone, but you can tell by the way his eyes glimmered he was holding back tears, tears he held since the very first time it happened three months ago.
It was a onetime thing, Yeosang knew that, but he slowly remembered she was a staff member for Ateez. Every time you’d come to visit him, his body would tense as she happily greeted you, secretly texting him that if you weren’t out of the picture, she’d tell you everything, so he beat her to it. But the silence you were giving him was making him rethink everything.
“(Y/n/n)…” He cautiously reached for your hand, shrinking away as you stood and headed towards the kitchen, his body instinctively following yours.
“You must be hungry. San told me you guys were learning a dance and it’s a lot difficult than usual so you barely take breaks.”
Your voice was steady and calm, almost as if you didn’t hear a word he said. But you were obviously out of it, grabbing ingredients that didn’t even go together and setting them on the counter. You felt Yeosang’s hand grab your wrist, stopping you from placing the bottle of paprika down.
“Baby, it’s 2 in the morning. We don’t need to eat. Can we sit back down and talk? Please?” His concerned stare was burning into the side of your face as you continued to look away from him, knowing that no matter how hard you tried to ignore it, he’d keep pressing to talk things through.
“You’re right, I think we should head to bed.”
His grip tightened as you tried to walk away, both of you slowly becoming more emotional as the seconds passed, your bottom lip being sucked into your mouth as you tried to hold back tears, Yeosang having a harder time to control his voice as he began to speak to you.
“Why won’t you just talk to me?” The slight crack in his voice was enough to make you breakdown, but you didn’t want to.
You wanted this day, this night, this very moment to end. Almost as if it never happened.
“I love you, Yeosang. I know you want to talk but I can’t. I just want us to go to bed and forget all of this happened. I don’t care if we’re both hurting right now, I just want to sleep and wake up and look at you as if you’re the same person I met two years ago. Please.”
Yeosang swallowed hard, knowing that no matter how simple of a solution it was, it would only continue to eat away at both of you, but he also wanted to forget about everything. He slowly let his hand slip from your wrist into your own, lacing your fingers together tightly.
“Y-yeah. Let’s go to bed.”
San
San was extremely passionate, and maybe that’s why everyone was attracted to him. Maybe while you were away for a family vacation, he met a girl who was just as passionate as him and that’s why he cheated on you. But you also knew San was a very emotional person, so you asked a simple question as he stood across from you near the bedroom door frame, teary eyes wide as a small ‘huh’ left his lips.
“Did you love her?” You repeated.
It was a simple question, and all you needed to know before determining if this relationship was something you wanted to continue. You felt a bit foolish for asking it, not wanting to seem too hopeful that he’d profess his undying love for you, to say you were the sun in his universe, especially now knowing your warmth wasn’t enough for him.
But San thought the question was absolutely ridiculous. He was head over heels in love with you, to the point that everyone in the company called him a lovesick puppy. He almost thought it was stupid that you’d assume he’d be in love with some random girl he slept with a month ago, but then he realized he was the stupid one for sleeping with her while being in love with you. He wasn’t a bad boyfriend but, at this point, the title fit him perfectly.
“The only person I’ve loved and still love is you. What I did was a mistake, and sleeping with her was a mistake, but I can never be in love with anyone else the way I’m in love with you.”
His voice was so strong and certain, it distracted you from the way he easily moved closer to you, his arms wrapping around your waist and forehead pressing against yours. You didn’t want to cave in too easily, but the way your arms wrapped around his neck habitually, you both knew he was forgiven, your face falling into the crook of his neck as he let out a small sigh.
“Everything I’ve done, I’ll make it up to you. I promise.”
Mingi
When he finally told you about the one night stand, sobbing uncontrollably, you stood on your toes and held his face in your hands, saying a simple ‘I forgive you’. You have no clue how it could have spiraled out of control this way.
Mingi was never one to get loud or violent, but the way he progressively got angrier when you reassured him that everything was fine made him snap.
Was this your way of punishing? He wanted you to scream at him, slap him, tell him how much you hated him. Anything to make you see this wasn’t how relationships should be, but you didn’t. He cheated on you, something he promised he’d never do and, even though you had every right to be upset, you weren’t. But that couldn’t stop him from being angry with himself. His logic was long gone as he began to punch the brick wall of your apartment, small flecks of blood dripping down his knuckles as he continued to harm himself, your eyes wide as it finally set in that he wouldn’t stop any time soon.
“Mingi, stop!” Even though you cries fell onto deaf ears, you ran towards him, grabbing his arms and pulling as much as you could until you managed to move the giant.
“You’re supposed to be upset with me! I’m not supposed to treat you like this! No one is supposed to treat you like this! Why are you pretending like everything is okay when it’s not?!”
“But it is, Ming-“
“No, it’s not!”
You continued to watch him cry, your eyes drifting to his bruised fist and gently taking it into your hands to examine it, finally letting the situation sink in. You knew this wasn’t right, but you knew the man Mingi was, and you knew he would still be that man once you overcame this obstacle.
“Mingi, I feel like I was just stabbed in the heart one million times and set on fire. You cheated on me. But I know you’d never do it intentionally to hurt me. We’ve been together for only a few months, and so many mistakes could happen in that time, but couples always work through them. So why can’t we?”
Mingi would only be lying to himself if he said he wasn’t relieved you forgave him, but his infidelity would be engraved in his mind for as long as you were together.
Wooyoung
You were a mess, but Wooyoung wasn’t letting you walk out, even as you thrashed in his arms and hit him, screaming that you wanted to be alone.
He ignored his own tears and sobs as he begged you to stay by his side and talk to him, unsure of where you’d go once he released you. Wooyoung made the mistake of sleeping with someone else not even an hour ago, his senses coming back and guilt immediately consuming him. Although he thought telling you immediately would be best, he didn’t think you’d react like this.
“Get off!”
“Not until you calm down and talk to me!”
“I don’t want to be near you! Get the fuck off!” You were exhausted and slowly starting to give up, uneven pants escaping your lips as you sobbed harder, sinking into his arms as you finally settled down.
“What did I do wrong?”
The small words that croaked out of your throat shattered Wooyoung’s heart. You did nothing wrong, yet you were blaming yourself. If he knew you’d be putting the blame on yourself from all of this, he probably would have never told you.
Instead of responding, he slowly carried your bodies to the nearby sofa, sitting down and allowing you to curl into his lap, your face buried in his chest as his hand rubbed soothing circles on your back. It took some time, three hours to be exact, until you stopped crying, eyes blankly staring ahead as Wooyoung cleared his throat, not sure of where to begin.
“I know you’re mad at me,”
“I am.” The corner of his lips twitched slightly as he was glad to hear your voice.
“And I know things won’t be like they were before, but I just want us to be okay. You don’t have to forgive me right away, or at all, but I just don’t want to keeping going on as if I didn’t hurt you.”
You slowly pushed yourself up to look at him. You still looked beautiful to him despite the deep circles under your bloodshot eyes.
“I don’t know why you did it, Woo… And I don’t know why I still trust you either. But I think we can work through this. I want to work through this.”
Wooyoung’s body sank into the uncomfortable cushions in relief, holding you closer than before as he shut his exhausted eyes.
“Thank you.”
Jongho
You stared incredulously at Jongho as he spoke, unsure if he was serious or not as he admitted to his infidelities, the stoic expression he held almost inapplicable to his words. But whether you could see it or not, he was repentant. He could hear his voice breaking ever so slightly, his hands shaking as he replayed that night in his head over and over, a new wave of guilt and sadness washing over him as he felt the need to cry just as he did then. But he wanted to be the one to comfort you when hearing the news, not the other way around.
But you weren’t buying it.
“I can’t tell if you’re trying to piss me off or make me laugh, because we both know you’d never do something like that.” You chuckled.
“Why would I lie about this?!” And here was his breaking point.
You watched in shock as his dry eyes glossed over with tears, his lips trembling as he watched your expression go from shock to absolute horror.
“No…”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean for any of it to happen and I don’t know what came over me! She came onto me but I can’t put all the blame on her because I went along with it. But I cried so much, (Y/n). I couldn’t stop thinking about you and how much I fucked this up and I have no idea what to do.” He confessed, taking a deep breath from his rant as he blinked away the few tears that haven’t fallen, the rest being sloppily wiped away by his palms.
You could only stare at him, unsure of what to feel as you took in his true demeanor. He was never like this so it was obviously true, but he was never the kind of person to cheat either. You were both confused, but not equally distraught. Jongho was so lost in his own head that he didn’t notice you approaching him, your fingers combing through his hair as he tried to cleanse his mind of how he destroyed a perfect year long relationship for a fling.
“I’m not sure who the guy that cheated on me was, but it wasn’t my Jongho.”
“How can you still joke after all of this?” He said with a weak laugh, causing a small smile to grace your face.
“Because, even though what you did was wrong, and I am hurt by it, seeing you like this just reminds that you’d never do it again.”
“Of course I won’t. I won’t be stupid next time.”
He sat up a bit more so that he could hug you properly, his head finding its place in your neck as he let out a small ‘I love you’, but you couldn’t find yourself to say it back. Not yet. And he could accept that.

reaction: their s/o giving birth unexpectedly; ateez
Tumblr media
req: Can I get an ateez reaction where they and their s/o don’t know she’s pregnant until she gives birth someplace?
Tumblr media
Seonghwa
Tumblr media
Yes, Seonghwa did mention before to you that he wanted children, but he said 'in the future'. This was too soon and the worst part was none of you knew that you were pregnant. And I think Seonghwa would be more worried about the baby's health and he would be guilt stricken if anything was wrong. He would blame himself because he always promised himself that when his s/o got pregnant, he would take care of her a hundred times better and feed her nutritious foods. But since you had already given birth, the most he could do was pamper you at home until you recovered your strength.
Hongjoong
Tumblr media
Hongjoong would have a mini internal mental breakdown. He was the leader of Ateez and he had a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders already. Furthermore, he barely ever comes home because of how busy he was, how would he have time to take care of a baby? Especially one that none of you were prepared for. But of course, he wasn't ever going to give the both of you up and so he would try and plan out how he was going to go about with this new situation.
Yunho
Tumblr media
Yunho would be so so so so afraid. Firstly, because you suddenly collapsed in pain, screaming and crying while sweating bullets. Secondly because he wasn't sure if he was going to be a good father. Both of you are still very young and none of you had planned for a child so soon. Even then, he would still choose to keep the child, although if you decided to give it away for adoption, he would support your choice, and will comfort you until you felt better.
Yeosang
Tumblr media
Yeosang would be blaming himself for everything. You were the type to get irregular periods often so you never thought much of it but he would blame himself for not asking you to do a pregnancy test or something. Like Seonghwa, he would be very worried if the baby would have any health complications since the both of you didn't live a lifestyle that was exactly recommended for a pregnant woman.
San
Tumblr media
San would take this as a blessing, as a sign from God or something. Of course he would be nervous and scared and everything in between but he would still welcome the baby with open arms. If you were hesitant on keeping the baby, he would be very upset and try to convince you that the both of you could be good parents. He would also take the effort to read up on how to be good parents to show you that he was ready for the baby, no matter how unexpected it was.
Mingi
Tumblr media
Mingi loves children and so when you suddenly gave birth out of nowhere, his first instinct was to jump up and down happily before realization set in and he's like "oh shit, this is OUR baby, and it's OUR responsibility now" nonetheless, he would still be very excited about it and seeing how happy he was erased any thoughts of giving the child up for adoption. You were so sure that the both of you would be able to be great parents.
Wooyoung
Tumblr media
Like Yunho, Wooyoung would be very worried that he wouldn't be a good father since the both of you were very young and none of you were ready to settle down and raise a kid. He still wanted to hang out with all his friends but he didn't want you to be the only one stuck at home taking care of the child. Rather than giving the child up for adoption, I think he would suggest letting your parents or his parents take care of the child first since the both of you didn't have a lifestyle suited for a kid. However, whatever your decision was, he would assure you that he still loves you just as much.
Jongho
Tumblr media
even more so than the other boys, Jongho would be so not prepared and would freak out the most, even to the point of being a little cold and distant. Not that he hated you or anything because he had a part to play in this but because he needed some time alone to think things through. Ultimately he would still choose to keep the baby instead of giving it up for adoption but he would need some time before he could accept it wholeheartedly.

You’re traveling to another dimension It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity It is the middle ground between light and shadow, Between science and superstition It ties between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge This is the dimension of imagination
An ATEEZ Twilight Zone!AU (masterlist here)
A/N: Again, I hope this lives up to the first three chapters! I hope this lives up to the rest of the chapters. I tried my best in this one, so I hope you all like it. 
IV. Long Flight (Yunho)
Jeong Yunho was at the airport, waiting for his four friends to return with snacks and drinks while they waited for their flight. It was their long-overdue overseas trip together, something they had planned for a long time but for some reason or another, it kept getting postponed. The last reason for their postponing the trip was that Yunho spent the past several months recovering from a nervous breakdown caused by stage fright one night during a dance performance at their corporate party. 
He didn’t know why it happened, it just happened, and even until now, he was still confused as to how it happened to him of all people. It took some convincing from his closest friends; Jung Wooyoung, Choi San, Kang Yeosang, and Song Mingi, that he needed to get away from work once in a while and this was the perfect time to do it, especially while he was still on sick leave. Yunho quietly assured himself that this was going to be fine. He was going on a trip with his friends, it was sort of his last stretch of freedom before he was to go back to work. 
His friends returned and handed him some snacks just as their flight was announced and they boarded the plane, taking their seats next to each other. Yunho and Mingi got the two-seater, while the rest sat together in the middle. “I’ll get the window seat,” He said, his friend obliging him as he slid inside first. 
“16 hours, it’s going to be a long flight” His friend stretched a little in his seat before fastening his seatbelt. “Try and relax, hmm?” He patted Yunho’s shoulder before sitting back. “Consider this your feel-better trip, it’s a time for healing” Mingi assured him even more. 
“Of course, of course, I wouldn’t think of it any other way,” Yunho said, looking out the window. The sky was getting dark, and if the plane were to take off at that moment, they would arrive around the same time on the same day at their destination. Although his mind continuously tried to remind him about the possibility of things going wrong while on a flight, he tried to shake it off. The last thing he needed was another nervous breakdown. 
“Hello, and good evening, this is Captain Kim Hongjoong with first officer Park Seonghwa and welcome aboard. This is a non-stop flight, approximately 16 hours to our destination. We will be going over the safety procedures so please turn your attention to the crew member in front of you” Said the voice from the intercom system. 
“I’m Choi Jongho and I will be showing you what to do in case of turbulence or potential danger,” The steward said in front of them, and the pilot began to narrate the steps. 
Takeoff made Yunho grip the armrest tight, but he later calmed down once the flight was smooth. His friends had fallen asleep after their first meal and he was the only one awake. He usually was the only one who stayed up as late as he did as the five of them shared an apartment to cut down on costs. 
The movie that was being shown on the screen in front of them was already in its closing credits. He was too distracted by what he was feeling whenever the plane skidded through the wind. Yunho closed his eyes as he tried to relax. The flight was smooth, they were on their way, there was nothing to be worried about. 
He opened his eyes a second later and he froze as he saw the face of a gremlin staring at him from outside the window. Yunho shut his eyes and looked away. Maybe he was dreaming, or seeing things, he thought. He opened his eyes again and the gremlin was still there, staring at him with its very vacant expression. He wondered what to do, to wake Mingi up, or to try and look away. 
Yunho tried to look away. Maybe it’ll go away, he thought. Maybe it’ll disappear, maybe it was all a figment of his imagination. He was already off his medication, and he figured that might be it. But no matter how much he wasn’t looking, he could still feel the stare of the gremlin at him. He wasn’t a believer in the supernatural, and even his friends could agree that he wasn’t really someone who got scared easily. Yet, this felt worlds different, felt different enough that he could feel a chill down his spine from just remembering what the gremlin looked like alone. 
He looked back out the window, thinking that he had enough time to compose himself, and saw that the gremlin was gone. Yunho sighed in relief and sat back, but sat up when he realized that the gremlin wasn’t gone. It was perched near the plane’s engine and he could see it was clawing through the wings. “Mingi, Mingi,” He nudged his friend awake. 
“Hmm? Hmm? What is it?” Mingi slurred, eyes opening. 
“There’s something out there, a thing, I don’t know what it is, but there’s something out there,” Yunho whispered. “It’s trying to kill us by destroying the engine of the plane” 
Mingi looked confused. “What? What are you saying?” He asked. 
“I’m saying that there’s something out there, there’s a creature, hiding by the engine” Yunho glanced back, seeing the gremlin tinker with bits of already exposed parts. “Mingi, look out the window, just look,” He said, gesturing his friend to move. 
Mingi yawned and leaned over. “I don’t see anything, Yunho. Just get some sleep, you’ve been wide awake for hours” He urged his friend and sat back again. 
Yunho looked confused. “Can’t you see it? It’s there, hiding by the engine, let’s switch seats, you’ll see what I mean” 
“The seatbelt sign is still up, we can’t” Mingi shook his head, pointing to the sign above their heads. “Just rest your eyes, go on, rest your eyes.” 
With an exasperated sigh, Yunho sat back, waiting for the seatbelt sign to go down as Mingi wouldn’t believe him. Thunder rumbled and it began to rain, and Yunho was beginning to feel anxious. He closed his eyes and tried to follow his friend’s advice. But as he opened his eyes for a moment, he gasped as he saw the gremlin out the window staring at him again. Yunho yanked the shade down but his body seemed to feel paralyzed to find the strength to do it. 
Once the seatbelt sign was turned off, Yunho fumbled with his seatbelt and moved out of his chair, startling even Mingi and the rest of his friends. “It’s there again” He whispered, pointing to the window. He saw the gremlin go back to its hiding place when Mingi, Wooyoung, and San turned to look this time. Yeosang joined in as well. “It’s there again, and it’s messing with the wires in the engine!” He said. 
The four of them brought him back up his feet and he kept looking back at the window. “Yunho, try and relax, sit down” San helped him back up to his seat. 
“Is there anything wrong?” The flight steward named Jongho suddenly appeared upon noticing the slight commotion. 
“Can we have some water for our friend?” Wooyoung asked and the steward nodded and walked off. “There’s nothing there, Yunho, you probably got too into the movie” He said. 
“I did not get too into the movie, I wasn’t even paying attention to the movie,” Yunho argued, freezing as he saw the gremlin tinker with the exposed parts even more in the midst of the rain. Yeosang handed him the sick bag and Yunho pushed it away. “I am not having a panic attack, I am not having a mental breakdown again, I know what I saw and I am telling you that there is a creature, a thing out on the engine of the plane” Frustration was now evident in his voice. 
“There is nothing out there!” San argued back. He was already looking out the window. “There’s nothing and no one out there on the engines of the plane” He went back to sounding calm. 
“Don’t look at me like I’m going insane because I’m not! The thing is hiding from everyone else but me” Yunho insisted. 
Jongho returned with a cup of water. “Here you go” He passed the cup to Yunho, who put it down. 
“I am not going insane! I am perfectly sane, and I am telling all of you that if nothing is done about that thing, that creature out on the engine of the plane, then we’re going to crash” Yunho panicked. “There is a thing out there on the wings!” He pointed out the window. 
“Excuse me for a moment,” Jongho approached the window to look outside. Everyone else around them began to look as well. “There is nothing there, sir. Please drink the water and your medication if you have any” He advised. 
“Stop looking at me like I’m going insane!” Yunho felt helpless. 
“Hello, I’m a physician,” An older man approached them and bent down in front of Yunho. “Do you take any medication for a condition?” He asked. 
“No, I-” Yunho paused. “I got discharged from the hospital a few days ago”
“He’s definitely crazy” said one of the people sitting at the back. “He should be sent back into the looney bin.” 
“I am not crazy!” Yunho tried to convince them, but he knew they couldn’t believe him. 
“Here, I have a sedative, take one to calm your nerves” The physician took out a prescription bottle and handed him a pill. “By the time we land, please alert the local medical authorities,” He said to Jongho, who nodded. 
“Take it, it’ll calm you down” Mingi patted his arm. 
Yunho studied their expressions. They were concerned and were probably thinking that the person who yelled that he should be sent back to the hospital was right. Even his own friends seemed to agree. He quietly drank the pill and then the water. Yeosang still handed him the sick bag before they went back to their seats. “A few hours more and we’ll be where we should be” San assured him and sat back as soon as Jongho was pushing the tray of food down the aisles. 
He turned to his side not bothering to engage in any of the conversations he could hear his friends having. Yunho knew he had to do something if no one was. He didn’t want to die, and that meant that he needed to get rid of the creature. He spat out the sedative the doctor made him drink into the sick bag while pretending to breathe into it. He had a plan. He got up to excuse himself to go into the bathroom. 
Yunho went towards the door of the restroom, alongside the part of the plane where the flight crew stored all the water and food. He noticed a box that was labeled for emergencies and quietly took it down. Opening it, to his surprise, was a revolver, that must have belonged to one of the crew. Holding the gun reminded Yunho of what he was planning to do, yet he knew there was no other way to do it. 
He calmly returned to his seat, glancing at everyone around him. Yunho felt everyone’s eyes were on him, anticipating what he would end up doing next. He could see the gremlin once again, tinkering with the wings of the plane. “We’re almost there, if you didn’t here the captain earlier” Mingi assured him. 
Yunho ignored him, eyes focused on the gremlin who seemed like it was having fun trying to destroy the plane. He jumped out of his seat, yanked the fire extinguisher from its place, and aimed to open the emergency exit. Jongho quickly tackled him before the door could open, his friends and everyone else on the plane too shocked at what they saw him try to do. “The thing! It’s out there! It’s still out there!” He yelled, trying to break free from the steward’s grip. 
The doctor hurried down to where Yunho was and injected a tranquilizer into him. Yunho felt his eyelids getting heavy until he lost consciousness. 
Yunho was led out of the airport on a wheelchair on the way to the nearest hospital when the plane landed. Everyone thought he had now gone insane, including his friends, who were now faced with the dilemma of wondering how to explain what he did to his family when they got back. They couldn’t fault him, after knowing what he went through the last several months. 
“I’m the only one who knows what really happened” Yunho murmured to himself as he was brought into the ambulance. 
“Maybe it was too soon for us to go on this trip,” San said carefully. “We could have waited until Yunho was fully recovered.”
“Maybe” Wooyoung nodded. 
“Hey, Seonghwa!” Captain Hongjoong called out from outside the plane. 
“Yeah?” The first officer appeared, stopping when he immediately saw what his colleague was talking about. 
“Did we hit something? I don’t recall us having this much exposed wiring” Hongjoong said. 
“No, it was a smooth flight going here, and I’m pretty sure everything was in place when we took off” Seonghwa pointed out. 
“Exactly. What even happened while we were on the way here?” Hongjoong shook his head. 
Jongho approached them. “What happened?” He asked, having heard their conversation. 
“A very weird thing just happened. It turns out we’ve been flying with some exposed wires all this time. This must have happened on the way here if we took off and everything was how it should be” Hongjoong explained. 
Jongho gaped at his colleague.

College!AU - Seonghwa (ateez)
I’ll be doing a college!au series of every ateez member and I thought I’d start off with Seonghwa because ,, yes 
Author’s note: it’s a bullet fic 
warnings: SUPER SOFT HOURS and also cussing i guess?
~~~~~~
Seonghwa: 
Tumblr media
okay so ,, seonghwa i love him but that’s beside the point 
seonghwa’s majoring in biology
he’s a third year so he’ll be declaring his major soon and he’s thinking about narrowing his field of study a bit 
he doesn’t know to what exactly yet (anything but molecular biology 
he just ,, can’t with molecular biology that shit’s wack) 
seonghwa’s also minoring in nutrition
which makes sense,,,
i mean the boy carries around those organic, all natural, fun-free snacks; expecting for the members to eat them, not understanding WHY they all run away screaming when he pulls out his kale chips with non-dairy cheese
he’s super into fitness and keeping his own body healthy, so he’s always trying new recipes, keeping watch of his calorie and sugar intake,
he tried the keto diet, but then realized it did virtually nothing for him so now he just chose to increase his protein intake and work out more in the hopes of developing muscle (he can’t have jongho bullying him forever)
he regularly works out too and doesn’t understand why there always seems to be so many people taking breaks at the water-fountains near the treadmills where he runs whenever he works out 
at the university he shares his dorm room with hongjoong 
they bicker a lot and since seonghwa is always cleaning and cooking for the other boys, he’s earned himself the nickname mom
he doesn’t like it, but oh well
anything for his babies
seonghwa is also involved in a lot of different activities: he’s part of the school’s hip-hop dance team, is the treasurer for the university’s speech and debate club, etc.
he always takes part in the annual dorm cook-off (he never wins because he doesn’t understand that college kids want greasy food, not his fucking zucchini noodles zoodles)
he also show’s up to every member’s event/recital/performance etc. and cheers louder than any other person for his boys 
“YES THAT’S MY FRIEND DO YOU SEE HIM! GO JONGHO!”
jongho: oh my god, stop it mom
now, you were close friends with some of the other first years at the university 
you and jongho were neighbors growing up and when you found out the two of you would be going to the same uni you were ecstatic!
so naturally, since jongho was your closest friend in college, he often invited you to hang out with his other friends 
you had met seonghwa a couple of times before and found him to be absolutely drop-dead gorgeous 
you may have even developed a small crush on him after he offered to walk you to your dorm one night after hanging out with the boys but oh well you would never dare to say that out loud 
he was so nice, and strong, and hot, and nice, and funny, and kind, and nice, and you were ,,,, hopeless
but you figured an amazing and wonderful guy like him would never go for an awkward first year like you, so you just bottled those feelings up and shelved it 
you were a linguistics major, focusing on social linguistics 
you could rave for hours and hours about phonetics or the development of language
once the boys invited you and jongho over for late night snacks and after asking you about your major you went on a 13 minute spiel on the development of romantic languages and while the boys all started to ignore you after the first 2 minutes, seonghwa listened and thought it was cute 
so yeah ,,, you were so, so smart 
but when it came to anything science related , you were lost 
STEM subjects were really not your forte
you barely scraped through calculus and chemistry throughout high school, but biology, holy shit where do you even begin on that 
you couldn’t memorize cell functions or neuron transmitters to save your life and as your professor delved deeper and deeper into cellular biology, your grade sunk deeper and deeper 
you were desperate 
you pulled all-nighters at the library just to barely get passing grades on tests
you were getting seriously stressed and anxious, your mental health plummeting as the year progressed 
jongho found you for the hundredth time at the university library at four in the morning attempting to memorize evolutionary pathways  
he would never say it out loud because he’S a MaN, but he was worried about you and your mental health 
he coaxed you back into your room, and instantly had an idea 
whY NoT HavE SeoNgHwA tEacH YoU bIoloGy :O !!
when he told you a few hours later you screeched 
no
no way 
seonghwa must already think you’re weird, but stupid on top of that ??
no, sorry but not even you deserved that type of embarrassment 
jongho ignored you though and the very next day you were in seonghwa’s dorm room sitting near his desk as he opened up your biology book 
you wanted to die 
if possible, you wanted the ground to swallow you up whole and spit you out again years later as a successful and well-known linguist
please lord this is unfair the love of your life seonghwa teaching you biology was not okay please send you back to your dorm please please 
alas, life was never kind to you 
“so what are you struggling with?”
“everything”
“oh”
seonghwa was so patient with you though 
he meticulously went through the textbook and really made sure you understood the subjects before moving onto the next one 
you don’t even know how, but he made learning about macromolecules sexy mmmm
you were finally beginning to understand biology 
this arrangement had been going on for a few weeks now and your midterm for the class was soon approaching  
you were scared shitless 
yes, seonghwa was helping you, and yes, you were doing better on your tests and projects, but a midterm grade meant a lot and you could not afford to have to retake this class or have your final grade depend on the final test 
you were s t r e s s e d
and seonghwa caught on pretty quickly 
you had dark circles under your eyes 
you lost some weight 
you had breakdowns every day and seonghwa’s heart ached everytime he saw you like that 
he promised you he’d help you get a B on your midterm 
you didn’t think it’d be possible, but he swore on it and he was cute so you just went along with it 
the last chapter that would be covered on the midterm was ,, you guessed it ,,, molecular biology :’))))
it’s not that seonghwa was bad at the subject, he actually found genomics super interesting 
it’s just, it was way too much information to handle and trying to memorize all of that was a pain in the ass 
but when you guys had your next study session, seonghwa brushed up on his dna forensics and sat you right down
he was going to make you understand 
to be honest, as he explained chromosomes, gene therapy, and the likes to you ,,, you were lost as fuck 
what in the shit was cell division 
but you put up with it and paid close attention ,, your grade depended on you to understand this mess 
you guys had two weeks until your test, and after one week of teaching you molecular biology, that left you and seonghwa a week for you to review 
your review for the test took place at his dorm in case you had any questions and had to ask him anything
he’d go to the kitchen hall and make you some healthy snacks to get your brain juice flowing as you sat on his bed reviewing meiosis and dna replication 
to be honest, over the past couple of months seonghwa had been teaching you biology, you guys grew super close 
you were constantly over at his dorm
you two were always talking to each other 
when you and the boys met up, instead of sitting next to jongho you gradually moved to sit next to seonghwa much to hongjoong and jongho’s disapproval 
they missed their best friends :(((
but all the boys thought you two were super cute and watched from at the sidelines as your guys’ romance progressed  
if possible, these months with seonghwa made you fall even more for him 
it got way past of just being a crush, you were pretty sure you loved him 
you even grew to enjoy his weird avocado brownies and zoodles, and if that isn’t true love then i don’t know what is
it finally got around to being the day before your test and you were a n x i o u s as fuck 
even seonghwa was nervous for you ,, the week prior he had been talking hongjoong’s ear off about you and this damn test 
hongjoong couldn’t handle it anymore for the love of God someone please get these two together just make-out or something he didn’t want to hear about you anymore
you were at your dorm studying polymers, when you heard a knock at your door 
it was seonghwa gasp who would’ve known :)))
in his hand was take-out 
“sorry i’m a fake health fanatic i eat hella junk food when i’m nervous so i brought us burgers and fries and milkshakes and let me inside your dorm i need to sit down this is so nerve wracking”
you couldn’t help but laugh as you moved out of the way to let him inside 
“thanks seonghwa”
you two ate your burgers in silence before it got too awkward and you tried to make things better 
“i’m studying polymers right now, it’s not as bad as i thought it would be”
“See!! i’m glad you’re understanding biology. it’s a really cool subject when you understand the mechanics behind it”
“i guess so”
he stayed at your dorm room a few more hours reviewing subjects with you 
before you knew it, it was 10 at night and it was past seonghwa’s bed time (hA oLd man)
he told you to quickly take a shower and go to bed because you had to be well rested for your test tomorrow 
you agreed 
it was silent for a while, an unfamiliar awkward tension filled the air before seonghwa hugged you “byegoodlucktomorrowtextmewhenyou’redoneyou’lldogreatbye”
he then zoomed out your room 
you were a blushing mess as you closed your dorm room and got your bathroom supplies ready 
fuck you were in love with park seonghwa
the next morning, you took your midterm and were surprised that you actually knew what the fuck was going on 
dna replication? check 
evolutionary pathways? check 
lipids and cell functions? check 
oH mY gOD yOU UNDERSTOOD BIOLOGY !!1
you handed in your midterm and walked outside the lecture hall, you felt good about the test but you would only know your grade a week later 
as you left the hall someone grabbed onto your shoulders 
it was seonghwa
“WELL HOW DID IT GO?”
“I UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING ON THE TEST, I MEAN I CAN’T GUARANTEE ANYTHING BUT AT LEAST I KNEW WHAT THE QUESTIONS WERE ASKING”
he hugged you super hard and you two excitedly talked about the midterm 
he even took you out to ice cream to treat you 
“shouldn’t I be treating you for helping me so much?”
“hush and just let it happen”
“okay mOm”
it was at times like these you really, really wanted to kiss him 
but alas, he wasn’t yours to kiss 
and it was also at times like these, seonghwa really, really wanted to kiss you 
so the moral of the story is that both of you were idiots
a week later, it was time for the boys’ weekly friday night movie time and you were running a bit late 
they were all gathered in hongjoong and seonghwa’s room since it was the biggest (ahh the perks of being upperclassmen) when suddenly you opened the door and hurled in, your eyes wide and crazed
“SEONGHWA I GOT AN A ON MY MIDTERM”
“WHAT OH MY GOD REALLY?!?”
he ran over to you and picked you up spinning you around as you both laughed in disbelief 
you don’t know how you pulled that off you were a dumbass how did you get an A on your biology midterm??
then as soon as he put you down and you looked up at him, bam he kissed you 
you were :OOO
jongho was :OOO
all the boys were :OOO
except for hongjoong who was like ;)))
and then as soon as y’all were done, seonghwa realized what he did 
and in front of the Kids TOO 
“oh shit i’m so sorry i don’t know why i did th-”
you cut him off with another kiss uwu
all the boys cheered and catcalled you guys 
you guys were both blushing but you didn’t care because 
1) you and park seonghwa kissed
2) you got an a on your biology midterm
you guys held hands and did cute shit as you sat down next to seonghwa to watched the horror movie jongho picked for this week 
wooyoung was shitting his pants 
as the movie played on tho, jongho slowly looked backwards towards seonghwa and said 
“seonghwa i don’t care if you’re older than me if you break y/n’s heart i swear to Jesus i’ll castrate you”
and seonghwa believed him ashjgjasha have you seen that boy’s arms ??!
seonghwa assured jongho that he would never do that to you
things lightened up again and jongho smugly said you guys should treat him to dinner since he was the mastermind behind your love 
you flipped him off
anyways, that’s the story of how you and seonghwa became the university’s cutest couple 
the cute linguistics major and the hot biology major 
you guys had cute food dates, and you even agreed to go to the gym with seonghwa
surprisingly, people stopped coming to the water fountain a few days after you started working out with him
you scared them off after telling them to stop ogling at your boyfriend HA 
seonghwa also finally decided he wanted to major specifically in cellular biology
and you supported him all the way 
you mans was going places, doing things, getting his deGrEE
then one night as you two were up as you ranted about the social impacts of language and the human conditioning of language to seonghwa he pulled you closer and kissed you because honestly he loved hearing you talk about linguistics but he couldn’t handle it anymore please it’s 3 in the morning 
you cuddled into him 
he was almost dozing off when suddenly you spoke up from the crook of his neck 
“seonghwa?”

Jeon Jungkook had never been good with feelings. But that was always okay because he didn't have anyone to feel for, so it didn't matter. Everything was okay as long as he had his two best friends, Namjoon and Taehyung. They knew what to expect from him, so his emotionless state was never a surprise. And he certainly was emotionless, and everything was certainly going okay. That was until a certain blonde haired boy giggled his way into his life. Jungkook was frustrated - he coudn't get him out of head. Park fucking Jimin was breaking all his barriers.
