Hear me out,

I feel like got7 is not coming back anymore……. And the reason I believe that is because it looks like the boy are enjoying being solo. Why you may ask well here are some reason, 1) look at Jackson he doesn’t look like he misses the boys. 2) Jinyoung is enjoying being an actor and I know his dropping a solo album so he’s also enjoying life. 3) bambam is having the time of his life right now. 4) TikTok lim jaebum is all over the place 😩. 5) yugyeom he’s Ali enjoying the solo attention his getting ( his a cutie even if he try’s to act sexy his still a baby). 6) youngjae………. Nvm with his I feel like he misses the boys a lot. 7) Tuan we’re do I start with him 🤔 I feel like his also liking being a solo artist.

Im not hating on the boys I miss them all together so bad but I just don’t feel like they will be back like a hole group. last year they only drop an album few months together than each of them went their separate ways that’s why I believe that 😭😭😭 it brakes my heart 🥺

( PLEASE CHANGE MY MIND)

I agree that each of the guys are enjoying their freedom to find themselves and shown who they really are and/or want to do. Now that they don’t have to follow strict rules, they are living their best lives. That is completely okay!

I really believe that Got7 will always be Got7, but they won’t be the Got7 that everyone remembers from JYP. They have said it many times but they are still friends and support each other the best they can.

They may have had a short run as Got7 last year but they were a newly reformed group. They all jumped right into their solo work, so it was hard for them to wiggle in that time for each other. Give them a while to feel it out and they will come back. I think right now they need a break from each other. Think of it as seven brothers all going to different colleges, okay?

They are all working hard and when they get weary they can came back home (to Ahgase) and get that home cooked meal and family loving 🥰 It will be a huge welcome home party and it will be amazing! Don’t count our guys out just yet, they are just getting started

Chaos

#soc answers #got7 #soc asks #soc anon #they will come home #don’t worry friend

got7 as fratboys: jaebum

a/n: ok so here’s the first one!!!!! it turned out waaaaay bigger than I expected but I hope y'all cope with me and read it all bc I think it’s worth it. as I said it, there’s a nsfw part at the end so skip it if you’re not comfortable with that. and please, hit me up with feedback!!!!!!!! those are very important so yeah

playlist

⇒ im jaebum: president

major: linguistics

minor: philosophy

ok so starting off with mr president himself: im jaebum!!!

ofc he was gonna be the president pls

so he majors in linguistics bc he wanted to do something different??? and like wanted to know the origins of words and its impacts etc etc LIKE DEEP STUFF

and he minors in philosophy bc well DEEP and he actually likes it a lot and he’s really good at it

you might think the guys don’t really respect him as a president but BITCH when jaebum is being serious they respect the hell out of him

he is the only one besides jinyoung that can actually put the place in order

a really good president???? like the university claims he’s an example even tho GOT had some complains in the past bc of it’s wild parties

he has this mysterious bad boy vibe all around him

but deep down he’s actually a softie

loves LOVES lOvEs his cat - her name is nora and she is the most precious thing to him

he wants to get more cats but he’s scared the guys will accidentally hurt them???? but getting more cats is totally on his plans

everyone on campus knows him - not just bc of GOT but well bc he’s that type of person that you just know who he is

he’s a MAJOR photography enthusiast

as you can see his instagram is totally aesthetic and with nice pictures

looks fucking good with a camera on his hands

actually looks fucking good doing anything

he’s also very passionate about music

like I told you he’s into deep stuff and he finds music quite deep

he’s actually a really good singer - youngjae said so himself

he also helps youngjae with his songs sometimes

they’re actually planning on recording jaebum a mixtape bc SURPRISE he’s really good at writing songs

has his earphones with him the whole time and don’t you dare touch them unless he offers to show you what he’s listening

yugyeom touched it without invitation once and well… it didn’t have a happy ending

his ipod is filled with pop punk songs and also rnb

reads a lot but not in public - no one actually knows why

maybe it has something to do with him wanting to keep this bad boy image around campus

has good grades bc he’s one of those people who are naturally smart and intelligent

he skips classes quite often

and when the guys wanna do it??? NO NO YOU BETTER GET YOUR ASS TO CLASS

bambam tried to argue once that “why can you skip classes and I can’t????”

jaebum dead ass played the president card and bambam just lowered his head and went to class

he usually skips it when he’s way too hangover or he didn’t get a good night of sleep

has some trouble sleeping at night sometimes so you’ll often find him taking short naps at his classes

when he’s at parties he’s very lowkey unless he’s REALLY drunk

then he turns into the most extra person on the planet?????

he once went down the stairs with nothing but wipped cream on his Parts™ bc he lost a bet he made when he was drunk

no need to say the girls went NUTS

talking about girls…. they all want him

they all wanna know what’s his deal like is he really intimidating is he a bad boy etc etc

he didn’t use to hook up a lot

actually he kinda fell in love with this one person but it didn’t end well

he got hurt and since then he only has sporadic one night stands and they are with girls from other universities so he won’t have to see them often

no one talks about this girl episode tho

actually he doesn’t actually talk about his problems openly at all

when he’s too bothered he goes to jinyoung bc they go way back and are truly best friends

jinyoung just gets him and isn’t scared to tell him when he’s wrong

BUT he has everything written down on his notebook: his lyrics, his feelings and everything that goes on his mind

it is black and it says “people I want to punch in the face” in the cover

he thought about putting a picture of nora but decided against it bc it was “too soft”

he carries this notebook with him at ALL TIMES like truly 24/07

and he doesn’t like anyone touching it in fact it is his most private thing and no one can read it

jinyoung almost read it once and jaebum caught him

jaebum didn’t speak to him for a few weeks and shit got serious but they got over it after jinyoung begged for his forgiveness for like 15 days straight

he goes to the same cafe every morning ever since his first year

everyone there knows him and his order

he usually stays there for quite a while just scribbling things on his notebook and drinking coffee

he likes his coffee dark and bitter and he says it’s just like his soul

no one buys this analogy tho

you must be wondering where do you fit in this

well you’re quite of a coffee enthusiast yourself and you love to go around on campus and discover new cafes etc

one day after your children’s psychology class you were wondering around campus near the philosophy building and there was this small cafe with a cat by the window and you thought oh cute

so you decided to come in and order your traditional caramel macchiato

from that day on you started going there almost every day

a few weeks later you noticed this handsome mysterious guy writing down on his notebook and you couldn’t stop looking???? and then you realized he was there everyday too

you sort of wanted to talk to him but he’s too intimidating

one day one of your friends went there with you and he told you about im jaebum and how everyone knows him and how intimidating he must be

so then you kinda dropped the idea of talking to him until

well one day he left the cafe in a huge rush babbling something about forgetting a test and he ended up leaving his notebook on his table

you decided to pick it up and save for him so you could give it back the next day

and so on the next day you’re drinking your coffee and he arrives and as soon as he sits you go there with the notebook in hands but things don’t go that well

“hm hey so you forgot this here yesterday and I-” “oh my god what are you doing with my notebook” “calm down greg I just picked it up for you bc you forgot it on the table” “DID YOU READ IT?” “no???” “tell me the truth did you read it” “I said I didn’t” “just give me my fucking notebook I’m leaving”

you stood there with this confused look but then you got mad???

“well here’s your fucking notebook. I didn’t read it. I wouldn’t invade your privacy like that. I just kept it bc I also come here everyday and I thought well I’ll be nice and save it so I can give him back tomorrow. I would’ve left it on the table if I knew you were gonna be this rude. here it is. have a nice day”

and you left bc you were angry????? who does he think he is????

so from that day on you kinda changed the time you used to go to the cafe bc you didn’t wanna see him

fast forward a few days and a friend from your children’s psychology class - choi youngjae himself - invites you to a party his frat is organizing and you decide to go like why not

then you remember im jaebum is the president of the frat

but then you think OH SCREW IT I’m going and I’m gonna have a good time

so you’re there and a few drinks have settled in already. you’re not drunk you’re just a bit tipsy and joyful

you finally see youngjae so you go there to say hi and you two start talking

then you notice that jaebum is coming your way and you can’t not roll your eyes

“you know her youngjae?” “yeah jae. she’s in one of my classes. wait you two know each other?” “unfortunately. jaebum was an asshole to me a few days ago so excuse me I have to go”

and youngjae is giving jaebum this look that says wtf did you do dude go apologize

jaebum rolls his eyes but he goes after you and he calls you “cafe girl”

you turn and you’re not in the mood so

“what do you want jaebum?” “I wanna know your name so I can apologize properly”

you debate on just leaving but you tell him your name and he just stares at you

“are you actually saying something or can I just leave?” “hm no! don’t leave.. I just.. I’m sorry. I was an asshole. I shouldn’t have acted like that, you know, like a stupid rude asshole.” “yup you shouldn’t” “so I’m really sorry. and grateful that you kept my notebook. it’s really important to me and very personal so that’s why I acted like that.” “ok noted” “can I get you a drink to earn your apology and then we can talk like two normal people?”

you thought about saying no. you did. but he had the prettiest and most genuine smile across his face and you couldn’t deny

and then you two talk all night long and you find out he’s actually a really nice and cool guy with a great talk

so it’s late and you have to go home and he offers to walk you to your dorm and you tell him there’s no need but he insists and you let him

you two keep on talking and walking and he grabs your hand and when you look at him he has the cutest smile and that makes you wanna kiss his face but you don’t

you get to your dorm and you two exchange numbers and as soon as your inside your room you get a text

[01:35] jaebum: I really wanted to kiss you tonight. but I’ll take you on a proper date before that. are you free tomorrow?

so from that day on you two start hanging out and getting to know each other and going on dates and cute cafes and holding hands across campus and kissing under trees like this huge walking cliche

at first girls kept staring at you like they were surprised that THE im jaebum has a girl

and it was funny bc he walked with his arm around you like you were the most precious thing on the campus and the girls also looked kinda jealous

he allowed you to read something on his notebook once: it was a bunch of scribbled notes about you and it was so sweet and loving and then he asked you to be his girlfriend so BOOM you two were official

the guys start teasing the hell out of him because WOW you’ve turned jaebum into this huge ball of fluff

he’s really this soft dork whenever your around and that’s really cute

you two have this ritual of going to That cafe every morning and when one of you can’t make it the other one picks up coffee for the go

you had to be approved by nora in order for this relationship to work and sometimes he regrets it bc he swears you and nora like each other more than you two like him

it took him a while to open up to you but he did eventually

he makes you cds in a very old fashion way every month with songs he wants to show you or that make him think of you

and you give him this list with book recommendations so you can discuss later

you spend a lot of time at the frat helping him out with his president duties

he walks you to his classes

loves LOVES seeing you in his jackets or with the frat’s shirt

takes a lot of pictures of you - really, a lot. you’re having dinner? his camera is up. you’re putting make up? his camera is up. you’re sitting on the couch? his camera is up. like literally he has a ton of pics of you in his camera roll

you can keep him in check when he’s too nervous or too stressed and that’s great

he’s a bit jealous sometimes but he’s getting better

sex is a very important thing for him bc he belives that sex is a way to express love

like honestly he is very very sexy and he basically exhales sex so

usually he’s a dom and into rough sex

but there are some days when he just wants to appreciate you so he goes in deep for passionate sex and those days are amazing

sex is always very intense and intimate

not much into trying new things but will do it for you

never steps over your boundaries when it comes to sex (actually over anything but especially in bed) and you trust him a lot so

has a huge oral kink and also likes hair pulling

doesn’t care about doing it when the guys are around the dorm

overall he’s not the typical frat boy and a very soft person and you two became the bossy royalty couple and everyone loves you two

Mixed Signals

Hi there! i’m sorry this request took so long, because i was having trouble with the plot and the characters :(( i’m sorry if it’s not exactly how you request it to be, but i really hope you like it!!

Type: Fluff/Angst

Character: Im Jaebeom (College AU!) x Reader (feat. Jackson Wang, BamBam)

Words Counted: 6K5+

questions and request are available / masterlist

You slower your pace as you passed the white line on the campus tracks. You walked around, before you could bend yourself, pacing your hands on your knees as you were trying to catch your breath.

“(Y/N), Lisa!” You heard your coach yelled. You turn your head to him as you stood up straight.

“If you want to get to the Olympics, you have to beat your own record! This is slow! I need you guys to be more, faster! More power on those legs! Push you limits!” He screamed, as if you were deaf.

“Take a one lap jog, then get your drinks, go!” He then blew the whistle before you could let out a groan and start jogging slowly around the field track.

Finishing a lap, you slowed into a walking pace before you felt a surprise a hit on the back of your head. You stumbled before you fell onto the ground as you heard people mummering behind you.

“(Y/N)!” You heard a familiar voice coming closer before you felt a pair of hands on both of your arms, helping you to get back on your feet. You looked to your side to see Lisa and Jaebum.

“You okay?” Jaebum asked, you exhaustedly nod your head as Jaebum turned to one of his teammates, giving him a death glare.

“(Y/N)! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to!” You looked over to the source of the voice, to see Younghoon with a panic and guilt on his face.

“It’s okay.” You assured him with a. weak smile, raising your hand. Before you would move yourself from Lisa’s and Jaebum. “I can stand guys, it’s okay.” You told them, but Jaebum still had his hand on your waist.

“Jaebum, I’m fine…” You assured him, pushing his hands lightly from you.

He looked at you with concern in his face before you gave him a smile.

“Go, you’re still in the middle of practice.” You told him with a light laugh before he slowly backed away and walked towards his team.

You were lucky enough to have met Jaebum during orientation week. Once you settled in your dorm room, you took a walk around campus for the next few days, just to get the maps on which building is which. Your favorite location would be the track and the library. You would work on your assignments int the library. And in your free time, you would read novels and other interesting books that the library has to offer.

You were sitting on the floor,between the aisle, reading The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. When suddenly, a figure appeared. He was wearing a light blue hoodie with what looks like a pair pf cargo pants and sneakers.

“Hey, mind if I sit here?” He asked, in a quiet voice. You nodded your head before he could slump down on the floor. There was a brief moment of silent before you could ask him a question.

“Is this your usual spot?” You whispered, low enough for him to turn his direction from the book.

He nodded his head with a smile, “Yeah, is this yours too?” You nodded your head.

“Yeah, I guess I’m going to start sharing my spot with you.” You smiled, extending your hand. “I’m (Y/N).” You introduced yourself.

“Jaebum.” He took your hand before giving it a shake and he lets go.

Ever since then, you got to know Jaebum better and you both became best friends. You encouraged him to join the football team while he encouraged you to get your foot running on the field track. By the time you’re on your second year of college, you moved out of the dorm to a nice apartment and eventually, you’re the star athlete while Jaebum is the team captain. You both support and look after one another.

Since you’re the one facing championship, he would wait out for you until you finished practice—even if he didn’t have any practice on that day too. He knew you would always gulp down the water you always brought, so sometimes he would come down in the middle of your practice to bring you an extra cool, bottle of water. Once you forgot to bring an extra change of clothing, he actually lends you hist t-shirt. It was too big—but it works perfectly on you for him. He cares about you just as much you care about him.

A lot of the people are thinking that you both are dating and started calling you the ‘Star Athlete Lovers’. It was cute, you really wish that it was true, but when you looked at Jaebum, you think to yourself that he only sees you as someone he cares about—one of his closest friends. Or so you thought.

You finished practice just before the football team did. You took your shower and changed your dirty and sweaty wokout outfit into a pair of shorts and a tank top over the varsity jacket you borrowed from Jaebum. Your hair tied into a messy bun, whereas your running shoes were replaced with a pair of comfortable slippers. You sat on the empty bench as you were waiting for Jaebum to come out from the lockers. About 15 minutes later, he came out, looking fresh, and as always… cute.

“Hey, ready to go?” He asked as he got closer to you. He grabbed your bag that was sitting on the ground.

You nodded your head before you could walk closer to Jaebum as he put his arm around you.

“Hey Lisa… waiting for Bam?” Jaebum asked, turning to her as she exited the lockers room.

“He’s at the parking lot, where are you guys heading?”

“Parking lot.” You smiled.

“I’m joining!” She trotted herself closer to the both of you before you can wall towards the parking lot. You rest your head on Jaebum’s shoulder before he could turn his face to you.

“Something wrong?” Jaebum stopped his tracks as you lift your hand up, motioning him that you were fine.

“It’s your head, isn’t it?” Lisa asked. As lisa asked, Jaebum frowned and you couldn’t glare at Lisa because it’ll only make it obvious.

“No…” You lied, “My body is just killing me lately…” You groaned.

“Same here, I think I’m going to take a bath at home.” Lisa said, in a chirp.

“But, you just shower…” You pointed confused, looking at your running partner.

“Yeah, but they don’t have a tub!” She compained.

When the three of you reached the parking lot, Lisa saw BamBam just gotten out of his car. When he noticed Lisa, a wide smile appeared on his face before she could trot her steps to his boyfriend embrace.

“How was practice?” BamBam asked, as you and Jaebum were approaching closer to them.

Jaebum lets go of his arm from you momentarily to fish his car keys in his pocket before walking towards the back seat to place his bag and yours as well.

“Tiring! (Y/N) to hard hit on the head you know.” Lisa explained and now you didn’t hide your glare.

“Do you really have to tell everybody?” You asked her as you leaned yourself onto the hood of Jaebum’s car who was pasked right next to BamBam’s car.

“Someone power-threw a football onto the back of (Y/N)’s head earlier.” Lisa continued, as Jaebum was suddenly standing beside you.

“How’s the team Bam?” Jaebum asked BamBam about the soccer team.

“We’re good, we’re having a tournament starting in two weeks… I just hope that it’s not in the same day as your run.” Bam said, turning his face to Lisa.

“It better not be!” She pouted, “Hey, I’m starving! How about we go grab a meal? You know, just us four—like a double date.” She suggested.

“We’re not dating!” Jaebum pointed out, only to feel your heart sank and the butterflies died in your stomach.

“We’ll take a raincheck on that group dinner.” You weakly smiled at Lisa before you could lean your head on Jaebum’s shoulder.

“Uh-oh, somebody is getting a headache.” Lisa singed, and you just let out a sigh as you smiled. You could feel Jaebum’s arm around you.

“I guess I’m just tired, can you take me home?” You looked up to Jaebum before he rolled his eyes.

“What do you think I’m doing here?” He said. “Come on, let’s go home, I’ll see you guys later!” Jaebum said, getting on the driver’s side as you got into the passenger.

Lisa too, walked around to the passenger side of BamBam’s car waving her hands in the air as Jaebum turned his car engine on. You pushed the button to roll the window down, waving at BamBam and Lisa as Jaebum pulled away from the parking lot and drove away.

You massaged your temples, while closing your eyes halfway through the drive. Jaebum noticed how drained you look.

“(Y/N), is your head okay?” He asked, his warm palms placed on the side of your face.

“it’s okay… I think I’m just drained from all the running.” You assured him.

“I’m sorry about that, I should’ve caught it.” Jaebum apologized.

“It’s okay Jae, that’s why practice makes perfect.” You told him, trying to wash his guilt away.

“Do you want to stop by somewhere to get some medicine or food maybe?” Jaebum asked you and you nodded your head slowly.

“Food sounds nice.” You told him.

He decided to stop by a mini mart. He asked what you wanted to eat before he told you to just stay in the car and got out. 10 minutes later, he came back with a plastic bag what looks like filled with food, drinks and medicine.

“You didn’t have to buy that much… how much was it?” You asked him. When you were about to fish your wallet from your bag, Jaebum stopped you and shook his head.

“Stop that, it’s almost like you just met me 5 minutes ago.” He smiled at you, placing the plastic bag on the backseat.

“Come on, let’s get you home.” He chirped, shifting the gear before he pulled his car to drive to your place.

You opened the door to your apartment before switching the lights on and kicking your slippers off. Jaebum followed behind you, kicking off his shoes before shutting the door behind him. You placed your bag on the floor before you could walk to the kitchen to get yourself a glass of water. You gulp down half of it as Jaebum was laying out the food he had bought.

“You should change into something more comfortable.” Jaebum said, as he opened the cabinet to get himself an empty glass.

“Yeah…” You nodded.

“Do you want tea or just water?” Jaebum asked you, his hand was about to reach the box of tea.

“Tea is nice… I’ll be right back okay.” You walked past him towards yoru bedroom as Jaebum stayed to brew the tea.

When you came back, the food was already laid out perfectly on the table. You were wearing leggings and a sweater whereas your hair was loose down.

“How’s your head? Really…” Jabeum asked, taking a saet as you do too.

“it’s fine Jaebum… I’m just too tired, the ball didn’t hit me that hard!” You chuckled, assuring him that you were alright.

As the both of you were enjoying your meal, Jaebum shared about his class, and a book he’s been reading. He shared about how the football team is getting together and that they’re all excieted for the upcoming championship coming up.

“Please don’t tell it’s starting in two weeks too?” You pouted and he just chuckled.

“What if it is, in fact, starts in two weeks?” Jaebum, asked, and you just glared at him.

“Well then, I might have to dethrone you and find your replacement.” You grumbled and he burst into laugheter as his hand reached for yours.

“I’m kidding! You know I’ll be there to support you! That’s what best friends are for right?” He smiled. You smiled back at him but it felt like someone just threw a weight lifting equipment to your face.

Jaebum handed you some medicine before you both could clear out the table and you walked him towards the door.

“Thanks for driving me home and… taking care of me.” You smiled to him.

“It feels like it’s already my duty.” He placed his hand on the top of your head.

“Oh, wait your jacket!” As you spun around, Jaebum grabbed you by the arm pulling you into his arms.

“Keep it, I’ll let you know when I need it, I haven’t organized my closet just yet, it’s super full.” He said, and you just rolled your eyes.

“I thought you were going to organize them last Saturday?” You asked him.

“Yeah well, things aren’t always going as planned.” He said, and you rolled your eyes.

“Go, before it gets late.” You pushed his face lightly as he got his hand on the door handle.

“Alright, I’ll see you on Monday.” He smiled before opening the door.

You waved your hand at him before he did and closed the door behind him.

Jaebum stood there for a brief seconds before he let out a breath. He then walked away from the door down to the basement where he parked his car. The drive back to his place was quiet now. He fumbled through his keys when he arrived to the front door of his shared apartment with his roommate before entering.

He heard the sound of the TV as he kicked his shoes off and placing them on the rack. He found his roommate, Jackson was watching the NBA match.

“Hey, you’re home!” Jackson looked over his shoulder.

“Huh, not working today?” Jaebum asked, slouching on the couch next to him.

“Nope, something else came up, I had to take a day off.” Jackson explained.

There was a brief silent before Jaebum let out a heavy sigh and Jackson turned to him.

“Uh-oh… there’s the sigh, what happened today with (Y/N)? Jackson asked suddenly turning his attention to his best friend.

“Nothing happened.” Jaebum muttered, but he knew his friend didn’t buy it at all.

Jackson got his face close to Jaebum that he actually had to lean away.

“Dude—”

“What happened to her? Tell me, it’s bothering you.” Jackson said.

“First of all…” Jaebum then pushed Jackson’s chest back to where he was seated with his feet before he could sit back. “And secondly, I think I just screw myself up.”

“Oh no… what did you do this time Jae…” Jaebum doesn’t know whether his friend is supporting, or mocking him.

Jaebum told him about how you’re having a win in two weeks and how he had let a football flew across his hand and hit the back of your head. He even told Jackson about how he slipped the ‘that’s what best friends are for’ phrase and Jackson made a face.

“I know! I screwed myself over.” Jaebum rolled his eyes, before covering his face with the palms of his hands.

“Do you love her?” Jackson asked, raising his eyebrows before Jaebum could give him a glare.

“What do you think?” Jaebum asked but heldp up his hand.

“Look—” He then gets into a position. Before he started speaking, he took the TV remote and lower the volume.

“This is what I think…” Jackson started. “To me, you like her. But you don’t want to take anything to the next level—you don’t want to take the next step because you’re comfortable on where you are.

“She can’t show her that she likes you too because she doesn’t even know where you’re standing… and now you’ve just made that fine line between you and her, I bet she’s feeling hurt right now.” Jackson said, as he stood up from the couch and Jaebum just stare at him.

“Water?” Jackson offered. Jaebum nodded his head before Jackson could walk towards the kitchen to get some drink.

Jaebum went deep into his own thoughts. He wanted to take you out, but whenever he asked you, the word ‘hangout’ would always pop out. Whenever he said ‘I love you’ to you, he would follow a joke afterwards so that nothing gets awkward, when really— he meant those three words. Whenever he touches you, he tried to keep his cool, whenever you hugged him, he acts all gross but hugged you anyway because he likes being hugged by you. Whenever people teased about him with you, being ‘The Star Athlete Lovers’ the butterflies in his stomach comes to life, but he knew that he had to die that down so that nobody can see how he felt about you.

Jackson came back with two glass of iced water before handing Jaebum one and sat back down on the couch.

“She’s into you, you know.” Jackson said before he took a sip of his water, causing Jaebum to choke on his water.

Jaebum placed the glass on the coffee table before he could cough his way to catch his breath, wiping his lips with his hands.

“How’d you know that?” Jaebum asked, sill coughing.

“Jaebum… one of the boys from the fencing team actually try to get to her, but she turned him down… including me.” Jackson said and Jaebum raised hi eyebrow.

“I’m kidding!” Jackson slapped Jaebum’s thigh as he shook his head.

“But I know that she does…” Jackson said, his voice calm and assuring. “I saw how she looks at you, and looks after you. Remember when you both show up to my fencing?” Jackson asked, and Jaebum nodded.

“Yeah, the one where you accidentally slipped but win right?” Jaebum poked and Jackson rolled his eyes.

“I can’t believe you remembered that—but yes! When you left to get drinks, I saw the way she looked for you, I saw how her smile always grew from ear to ear, everytime you’re by her side. She’s like this radiant star whenever she’s around you!” Jackson pointed.

Jaebum stayed silent for a good second before he nodded his head.

“How do I make her believe that I do want to be with her?”

Jackson smiled, raising his glass. Jaebum didn’t know why, he took his glass and clinked it with Jackson.

“Well at this point, all you have to do, is to tell her how you really feel.” He smiled.

The week passes by so fast, the closer it gets to your championship. And without a doubt, Jaebum is always there to support you. When he didn’t have any classes to attend nor practice, he would pick you up from campus. And even sometimes he would take you out to eat dinner first before he could take you home. During the day offs, he would come to your place and joined relaxing stretching with you. He was that emotional support for you—he was this pillar.

The closer it gets the more nervous you felt. You’re running the tracks just two days before the championship because tomorrow would be your rest day.

“Alright girls, cool yourself down.” Your coach said as you and Lisa were panting and dying for oxygen to breathe. Lisa dropped to the ground, laying herself flat onto the red dirt.

“Let me be, I’m fine!” She breathed, raising her arm up. You placed your hands on your hips as you throw your head back.

“I think that’s enough for today, tomorrow is your rest day before the big championship, and remember—this might be an opportunity for you to represent your country in the next Olympic!” Your coach told you and you just nod your head.

You wanted that spot. You wanted to win, and to represent your country to an Olympic. This is why you always push yourself to your limit, why you always train so hard.

“Okay, you both cool yourself down first before you hit the shower and head straight home alright? Lisa, call of every plan you have with BamBam tonight!” He commaned Lisa before she sat up straight with a pout.

“Shucks.” She muttered.

“And (Y/N) tell Jaebum to make sure you get proper rest.” He said and you nodded your head, smiling at the detail that your coach pays attention to you and Lisa’s relationship. You don’t know if that’s creepy or cute.

When the coach left, you and Lisa were still sitting on the ground, enjoying the cold water while the sun was setting. The sky was showing its beautiful contrast of orange with blue.

“Are you nervous?” Lisa asked, nudging you by the shoulder.

“I am…” You nodded your head.

“I think you have nothing to worry about.” Lisa smiled, as she got up from the ground picking her bag.

“Why is that?” You chuckled.

“Because you got this. You got the speed, time and stamina.” She said and you just smiled at her compliment.

“Are you waiting for Jaebum?”

“Yeah, I’m about to text him though.” You said, not having any motivation to get your phone from your bag.

“Well, I have to leave okay, Bam is in the parking lot already, are you sure you’re okay here by yourself?” Lisa and asked and you waved your hand.

“Go, I’m going to hit the shower first.” You told her as you struggled to get your butt off from the ground.

“Okay, get some rest! See you later!” Lisa waved at you as she rushed to the parking lot. You watched her fading further before she could dissepear making the corner.

You fished your phone from your bag before you could type a short text letting Jaebum know you’re finished. Your thumb stopped moving before it could press the ‘Send’ button. You looked around the empty track. The gear turned in yoru head before you locked your phone and shoved it aback into your bag and started to take a walk on the track.

“One lap won’t hurt right?” You asked yourself.

But you lied to yourself, you ended up jogging around 3 laps and 2 laps full sprint. As you were cooling down yourself, you saw someone standing by the bench where you placed your bag. He was wearing a black hood, grey shorts and slippers. You jogged closer to see Jaebum with disappointment on his face.

“Why didn’t you call me?” He asked.

“I still wanted to run around…” You told him, as you gasped for air.

“I was getting worried!” He told you.

“Well, you’re here now, I’m fine.” You said, before getting the water bottle from your bag, taking a chug.

“You’re over working yourself… you muscle needs to rest too.” He pointed to you.

“I’m fine Jaebum! You don’t need to worry about me all the time, I’m not your girlfriend.” You snapped at him, taking a towel form the top of your bag to dry wipe your sweat away.

Jaebum was surprised that you suddenly snapped. You saw the hurt expression flashed on his face, making you feel guilty for the way that you act before he nodded his head. He was

“I’m sorry… I was just worried.” He suddenly apologized, which just makes you even guilty.

“Of course, you were.” You didn’t know where your attitude came from.

You packed your bag aggressively before you slug your bag over your shoulder.

“Let’s just go home.” You told him not having the guts to look at him.

He nodded his head in agreement, saying “yeah” under his breath. He walked ahead of you as you followed behind him.

You felt the tension between yourself and Jaebum as you walked towards his car. You opened the backseat door to place your bag as he went to the diver side. You shut the door before you could hop into the passenger seat as he turned his engine on. You sat there in silence, your body felt rigid against the seat. Jaebum didn’t even say anything. He stayed silent for the rest of the trip back to your place.

When he parked his car, you quickly got out and grabbed your back from the backseat.

“Are you coming?” You asked Jaebum, as he turn to you.

“Yeah, yeah…” He answered you turning the car engine off before you could shut the passenger door.

He followed behind you, when you both were standing in the elevator, you felt this moment of silence between you two. You knew it was slowly killing you. You looked over to him as he was leaning, against the elevator metal wall, as his eyes looking down, his face full of thought. When the elevator dinged, you turn your head back before he could catch you staring. You walked out and he followed behind you. you fumbled through your keys before you unlocked and opened the door. You stepped inside, kicked off your shoes. Jaebum entered your apartment as you walked inside and heard the door being closed behind you. You dropped your bag on the floor before you could open the door to your room.

“I’ll take a shower, I’ll be right back.” You told Jaebum before disappearing into your room.

You stood under the shower, closing your eyes as you try to take 10 deep breaths to get yourself calm. Washing your anger away. Once you felt you were calm enough, you hopped out and dried yourself before you could put yourself into comfortable clothes.

You walked out from your room to find Jaebum sitting on the couch, with his phone in his hand. You watched his thumb sending a quick text before he noticed you were standing.

“Hey are you feeling better?” He asked as he got up from the couch, shoving his phone into his pocket. He walked closer to you, holding your arms and you nodded your head.

“Yeah… I guess I’m okay…” You answered him nervously.

“Because I might have to leave right now.” He said, sounding even more guilty.

“What? Why?” You asked him.

“It’s… uh…” His phone buzzed in his pocket and he pulled it to take a quick peak.

“If it’s because I snapped to you earlier, then I’m sorry I was just—”

“Hey, it’s okay, you’re feeling tensed, you’re just… nervous.” He kicked it off.

“No, no, no… I was out of line, you were worried about me—look Jaebum.” You parted from his embrace and walked further enough so you could see him.

“I Shouldn’t have snapped at you like that, I mean—for god’s sake—you’ve always watch over me, you took care of me when I’m sick, you care for me—it’s as if you love me, but you’re giving me mixed signals and I’m just giving you mixed signals as well!” You blurted out.

Once you said it, you quickly covered your mouth with your hands and you watched Jaebum with his surprised expression.

“I uh…” You couldn’t think of any other things to say.

“(Y/N)—”

“No…” You shook your head, walking past him with tears, burning your eyes.

Before you could even make it back to your room, Jaebum grabbed your arm and pulled you, twirling you around before he could crash his lips onto you. You were surprised at first but the second you felt his arms around you, you gladly kissed him back, wrapping your arms around his neck.

You both pulled away from the kiss to catch each other’s breaths before you could look up into his eyes.

“As much as I want, to say, that I love you, and list off everything that I love about you, but I have to rush, okay? I’ll text you later.” He said giving you a quick peck before he bolted towards the door and left your apartment.

You stood there, speechless with million things going on in your mind. You wanted to scream, and chase after Jaebum, you wanted to cry thinking that much things are better left unsaid. You sat on the couch, replying—digesting what just happened earlier with yourself.

That night, you waited for Jaebum to text you, but nothing came. You eventually moved yourself to your bedroom before you drift yourself to sleep. You woke up just about noon, you didn’t blame yourself, you were tired and having a cranky attitude last night. You reached out for your phone and noticed a text from Jaebum.

FROM: Jaebeom

Hey

Firstly, I want to apologize I had to leave abruptly. Jackson got into a big fight at a bar and apparently it’s not fencing that got him hospitalize

I would love to talk over our conversation last night, but I would much rather do it in person. I hope you can get much rest now, tomorrow is you big day!! I’ll be there to support! But right now, I need to take care of Jackson for now, I’ll let you know if anything comes up or if I could swing by later tonight.

I love you.

You immediately dialed Jaebum’s number, and right after the third ring, you could hear his raspy, sleepy voice.

“Hello?” He answered.

“I-I’m sorry, did I wake you up?” You apologized, holding your body with your arm.

“No… it’s fine, I’m still at the hospital right now, Jackson is okay to get back home today.” He said, updating about his roommate’s condition.

“What exactly happened to him?” You asked him.

“Well, he got into a nasty fight apparently when he went out. He didn’t do anything, but someone accidentally hit him and then he joins the fight before someone allegedly hit his back with a chair.” Jaebum explained and you could feel your body went rigid.

“Oh my god, arrest that dude!” You exclaimed, climbing out of your bed and you could hear Jaebum chuckled.

“The person is injured as well, but right after this he’s heading to the police station for questioning. Jackson’s fine now, but he’s going to need a long bedrest after this… No work, no fencing practice and apparently he can’t join classes for a week—a total, bedrest.” Jaebum explained.

“Ah… I’ll make sure to come by to your place to take care of him as well then.” You told him before the silent between of you became awkward.

“Listen, Jaebum about last night—”

“Did you get my text?” He asked and you nodded your head before quickly realizing he couldn’t see you.

“Yeah—”

“Is it bothering you?” He asked.

“Maybe… it’s slowly driving me crazy if I think about last night.” You told him.

“I’m sorry, I promise we’ll talk about this when I see you.” He said.

“Okay.”

“Alright then, I have to go, the doctors are here, I’ll text you if I can come and swing by later.”

“Okay, oh, please, tell Jackson to get well soon.”

“Of course—Oh, and (Y/N)?”

“Yeah?”

“I love you.”

Right after Jaebum hung up the phone, you felt those butterflies you’ve been feeling becoming even more alive than before. You thought about going to his place but you know it would only led to your uncontrollable emotions and arguments with him. You went with your day like nothing happened (only that Jaebum is super busy for you), letting yourself and your body get some rest before the big run tomorrow. The next day you couldn’t be more nervous. You haven’t heard from Jaebum for exact 24 hours, but you couldn’t blame him for not texting you because he’s busy taking care of Jackson.

You went to the stadium with Lisa and BamBam, since you asked her in advance the night before the event. The place was crowded since it’s all athletics competition being held in one stadium. Being the 100 Meter sprint, Pole Vault, Athletics Long Jump, Athletic High Jump, artistic Gymnastics and others.

“Man, this place is packed.” Lisa said, as she gave her bag to BamBam.

With annoyance on his face, he still took it and slung it on his shoulder.

“Is Jaebum coming?” Lisa asked, twirling around to look at you and you were surprised when she twirled. You lift both of your shoulders.

“I don’t know…” You answered her truthfully.

“Well, you don’t have to worry about him (Y/N), I’m sure he’s going to turn up some time.” Bam said, trying to get your mind off from things.

You changed into your running gear before one of the committees gave you a tag before helped you pinned in onto your clothing and told you that you should stretch before you start. You stretched your body before you suddenly felt a tap on your shoulder.

“Jaebum!” You wrapped yoru arms around him and you felt his hand on your back as he let out a laugh. “You’re here, I thought you’re not going to come!” You pulled away your face, placing your hands on the side of his face.

“Why the hell would you think that? I’ll always be here for you…”

You stayed quiet but you could feel your heart race.

“(Y/N), I know I left you feeling confused and mad… if things weren’t so urgent, I would be staying with you. I was going to walk to you about this, that night, but things took a turn and I had to rush. But you know what, enough about that and just—I love you, okay? I want to have a relationship with you. I’ve been wanting to go out with you since the first time I bumped into you in orientation week. I’m sorry that I’ve given you mixed signals, but I was because I was scared that you don’t feel the same way, and I thought that if this is the closest, I could get with you, it was okay as long as I don’t lose you.” He explained. His eyes darted elsewhere before he could look back to your eyes.

“As much as I want to talk about this again, you have a field to sprint on.” He said with a smile and you just giggled before he could lean down, pressing his lips onto yours.

“Goodluck. I’ll wait for you in the finish line.” He said.

You smiled as he jogged his way to the side of the finish line where BamBam was too.

When you heard the shot, you lift your body, moving your legs rapidly as if you never moved them before. You sprint as fast as you can, passing 1 person… 2…. Then 4, before you know it you were in the lead. But that didn’t slow your pace, it only made you faster. You felt your thigh burning already but the red line was at sight. You felt someone was coming closer behind you before you could see from the corner of your eyes that the runner is beside you. You picked up your pace and gotten yourself ahead. Just as you were about to hit the finish line, you felt a tug at your back, but you pushed forward, only to found yourself stumbling forward before you made impact with the ground and rolled around before you came into halt.

“(Y/N)!” You heard multiple voices but Jaebum’s voice stood out.

You tried to get yourself up, only to find Jaebum laying you back down as BamBam and your couch tower over your body. You watched your coach disappear, ranting and cursing out the unfairness while Jaebum can only just look at you with worry eyes.

“Are you okay?” He asked, breathing heavily, as you were trying to catch yours.

You swallowed hard. “I’m fine, but my right leg is hurting.” You told him.

Jaebum opened his mouth to say something but the paramedics pushed him aside. While they were throwing you all tons of question, you slowly try to get up and Jaebum was back.

“I’m okay, I’m fine, I just need some help to get up.” You told them, and they backed away.

Despite little scars and bleeding coming from your knee, you were okay. Jaebum and BamBam helped you to get back on your feet and sat you down on the side.

“Coach is not liking this…” Bam said, looking towards your coach who arguing with the committee.

You looked down to your feet. As you were trying to catch your breath, Lisa came with tears in her eyes.

“You okay? I saw that girl pulled you! She’s getting disqualified I hope!” Lisa cried crouches down to hug you.

“I’m fine… just at shock.” You told her, before she stood back up and BamBam handed her a water bottle and handed you one as well.

Jaebum stood up and let his hand slipped away from yours.

“Jae…” He didn’t listen and walked up to where your coach was having an argument with.

You watched as he got your coach calmed down before they both walked towards you.

“Well, clearly, she got disqualified, and… this is not how I imagined how we celebrate a victory…”

“You mean…” You moved your body forward, your heart racing.

“(Y/N), you’re in first place, you’re a champion!” He smiled and you could feel your little circle getting all excited and happy.

“Well, you know what this means?” Lisa chirped and your eyes widen.

“I have a shot in the next Olympic games?!” You asked, quiet shocked yourself, and your coach nodded.

“You’ve worked hard to get this far, and I will help you to get to the top.” He smiled.

He then told you to get some rest before getting home and wishing your speedy recovery before he went to the committee again.

You could feel your eyes burning, and your body bouncing from the ground, but still not getting up.

“I feel like I might cry! I’m so excieted and so happy but sad at the same time because ei can’t jump because my body hurts!” You cried and Jaebum sat by your side, putting his arm around you.

“I’m so proud of you.” He smiled.

“Congratulations sweetie!” Lisa cried, crouching down to hug you.

“Congrats!” BamBam joined in.

You tried to put your arms around them as you sniffled. “Uhm.. guys, it’s getting hard for me to breathe.” You said and they all quickly parted.

“We’re proud of you, do us proud later on too!” Lisa cheered.

“We’re thinking about heading out to get something to eat, do you want to come?” BamBam asked, and you turn to Jaebum.

“We’ll join you guys in a second.” He smiled, before Lisa and BamBam left.

“Well… are you happy?”

“I am… of course I am!” Smiled widely looking at Jaebum.

He watched your eyes for a moment before he slowly leaned in, closer to your face, pressing his lips firm against yours, giving you’re a sweet soft kiss.

“I’m really proud of you… I love you.”

“I love you too.” You smiled before he could give you a quick peck.

“Now come on…” He got up before he could slip his hands under your legs and back before he could lift you up from the ground.

“Let’s get you fixed up and get some food for you. because I have two babies to take care of and that is you, and my man baby, Jackson.” He laughed and you joined in.

Like a Virgin [m]

Im Jaebum x Fem Reader Genre: Smut Words: 3k [Masterlist] Plot: When Im Jaebum catches you in a lie when you attempt to preserve your reputation during a game of Truth or Dare, you know you’re in big trouble. Warnings (?): dom!Jaebum, mutual masturbation, unprotected sex, creampie (pretty safe stuff y’all I’m new to this lol) a/n: wow, so this is my first smut huh? I feel like I’m graduating or something and it ain’t even a Mark fic lol either way I think this is the beginning of my road to hell lmao also I realize I have a throat kink now and I don’t know what to do with this knowledge

You felt yourself going red in the face as your friends leaned into the circle around you and this time it was more than the fireplace behind you that was making the cabin feel extra hot tonight.

“So is it Truth or Dare?” Bambam urged, an evil smirk rising to his lips.

You glanced at your best friend Lina who had just been forced into giving Mark a lap dance and Yugyeom who was dared to strip naked and run outside through the snow (although the latter was a bit too proud about shedding his pants). You let out a sigh, eyes glancing furtively at Jaebum before turning back to Bambam.

“Truth please,” you committed.

“Aw, you’re no fun!” Yugyeom whined.

You chuckled at the younger boy’s pouting but when you saw the excited glint in Bambam’s eyes, you swallowed nervously.

“Okay, truth it is,” Bambam smiled, pointing his finger at you eagerly. “Have you ever masturbated to the thought of any of us here?”

Jaebum smiled, watching as your eyes widened with horror and your ears blushed pink with embarrassment. There was a quick moment of silence in which you were momentarily stunned before Lina broke out into a laugh.

“As this girl’s roommate, I can guarantee you she hasn’t. Shit, I don’t even think Y/N masturbates!” Lina teased, eyes squeezing shut as she doubled over in laughter. Honestly, you didn’t think it was that hilarious, but you were grateful for any distraction from your sex life nonetheless.

“Oh, come on, you have to at least masturbate, right? It’s human nature!” Bambam insisted, looking between you and Lina with arched eye brows.

“Maybe for gross boys like you Bambam,” Lina joked, nudging him with her elbow. “But Y/N’s like the Virgin, herself. She’s an angel!”

You tilted your head, resisting your best friend’s favorite nickname for you. Sure, maybe you weren’t as sexually outgoing or experienced as Lina but you weren’t an angel and you certainly weren’t a virgin. But the others seemed to be convinced by Lina’s loud exclamations as they began to nod along.

“Actually, I can see it,” Mark agreed, staring at you with squinted eyes as if your sexual experience was written across your face.

Jaebum chuckled, watching as your shoulders squeezed and you seemed to shrink from everyone’s teasing. “You need some water, Y/N? You’re getting kinda red right now.”

When you looked at him with surprise in your eyes, he felt his own stomach flip. He had been wanting to get to know you all semester but hadn’t found the guts to talk to you until this trip. He was beginning to realize you were cuter up close than when you sat across the room from him in your lecture halls.

“Yeah, I believe it,” Yugyeom added. “I remember in 9thgrade Y/N asked me what jizz was.”

You gasped at the sudden exposure, your lips bunching into a pout. “I was 14!”

“Exactly, you were 14 and didn’t know what the word jizz meant!”

“Knowing slang doesn’t always equate to knowing sex though,” Mark defended, more so to get a kick out of Yugyeom than to help you, but seeing as everyone was out to get you now you figured you would take what you could.

“Maybe, but I remember the first month I started rooming with Y/N,” Lina laughed.

Jaebum leaned into his hand, trying to cover his growing smile as he watched you glare at your friend. “Lina, don’t,” you warned. Even you being mad was cute.

“This girl!” Lina exclaimed, trying to hold back a laugh. “She legit pulled out my dildo and asked me if it was shoulder massager!”

“I-It didn’t look—It was a different shape!” You stammered.

Jaebum bit at his lip as you balled your hands into fists, straightening your back with a big red pout on your lips. If only you realized how little this was doing for your own argument. If anything, it made Jaebum even more convinced that you were in fact, an angel. Or at least more innocent than you were arguing to be.

“So you’ve really never maturbated, huh?” Bambam asked, looking confused but intrigued all at once.

You bit at your lip, looking at Bambam before you glanced away bashfully, eyes landing on Jaebum instead. For a second, he thought he saw your eyes widen from meeting his but the thought disappeared when you continued to look at him. He felt a stirring in his own stomach when he glanced at your plush lips and saw your teeth sink down harder.

“I-” You looked away to the floor and let out a breath before answering weakly, “No.”

“Oh, you poor soul, you must be so stressed,” Yugyeom teased, patting your head to ease the tension around the room. You rolled your eyes, swatting his hand away before glancing back at Jaebum.

“Anyways, it’s your turn now Jaebum,” You smiled brightly once again now that your turn was over.

Yugyeom clapped his hands with excitement, not even waiting for him to answer before he was already asking him a question. “What’s your secret kink?”

Jaebum smirked, “Mutual masturbation.”

Everyone in the room erupted with laughter. All except you and Jaebum. Instead you were left to stare at Jaebum as he looked at you quietly, an eyebrow raised before he leaned back on his arms, glancing from his thighs back to you. When he saw that you were still doe-eyed and pink in the cheeks he let out a chuckle, letting his head fall back and giving you the perfect view of his throat.

You gulped, averting your eyes quickly as you felt a rush of heat pool to your core.

The game went on and Bambam and Yugyeom did a plethora of embarrassing things but all this went right past you as you felt Jaebum’s eyes on you the entire time and all you could think about were other ways he could be all on you. The thoughts made you squirm in your seat on the hardwood floor.

So when Lina let out a yawn and called it a night, you silently thanked the heavens for releasing you of your torture.

It was past midnight when you finally sink into the bed. You let out a deep sigh as you closed your eyes and let your fingers travel south across your body. You were glad now that Lina had booked a spacious cabin with enough rooms for all of you to have your own.

You didn’t know Im Jaebum would be joining on the cabin trip with everyone. Ever since you laid eyes on him in your lecture hall, you had been dreaming of his pretty fingers running along your skin, your mouth on his delicious throat. The first time you spoke to him and he said your name, you almost melted into the floor on the spot.

And when you saw him step out of the guys’ car in his black bomber and matching beanie, you almost bent to your knees right then and there. It was only the second night of your trip and already you were too pent up with desire to even fall asleep despite the hectic day of skiing and long night of putting up with your friends’ shenanigans.

You savored the coldness of your fingers as you trailed lightly across your abdomen, teasing shivers off your body as you made your way down. You closed your eyes, imagining Jaebum’s hands pulling down your shorts and his fingers softly dipping down, past the band of your panties.

“Mmm,” you hummed lightly, finally relieving yourself as you pressed against your clit. You stretched your fingers out, teasing at your wet entrance before spreading your own arousal in circles against your clit. “Fuck, right there.”

Jaebum stopped in the middle of heading to his own bedroom at the sound of muttering outside your door. You were whispering but he had been sure everyone else already went to bed. He inched forward, careful to not make a sound as he leaned into the open gap of your door.

It was dark in the room except for a single streetlamp outside your window illuminating your exposed figure on the bed, eyes shut tight, t shirt sliding up your torso, and palm hidden underneath your delicate panties.

Jaebum watched as your arm began to move faster and your breaths became more shallow. He could feel his own breath constricting as his focus on you intensified.

“Oh, Jaebum,” you moaned, toes curling.

Jaebum felt his pants tighten at the sound of his name on your lips. He couldn’t help feeling a rush of pride as your arched into your own hand, continuously moaning his name under your breath.

“You called me?”

Your eyes flew open in surprise as you darted your hand out of your panties. You laid in shock, eyes looking back into his as you flushed with embarrassment.

“Well?” he went on, reaching the end of the bed. He lifted his leg, letting one knee sink into the mattress before he continued. “Are you just gonna stare at me all night, sweetheart? Or are you gonna continue?”

You swallowed, a new release of arousal pooling into your already soaked panties.

“C-continue,” you whispered meekly.

Jaebum smirked, reaching for your shorts and pulled them off your ankles. “That’s a good girl.”

He climbed fully onto the bed, eyes on you as he slipped two fingers past the band of your panties and pulled the soiled cloth off of you. He smiled before pulling your legs apart and sat between, taking in the beautiful sight of your exposed body under the faint light. You took in a breath as you felt the cool air hit you.

“Let me see how pretty you are,” he ordered, hands rubbing at your knees. “Take off your shirt sweetheart.”

“Jaebum,” you hesitated. “You too?”

You didn’t mean for it to come out as a question but from the look of his face you were glad that it did. You watched his eyes trail from your glistening entrance to your exposed belly button and he bit at his lips.

“Only for good girls,” he finally responded, hands trailing up your thighs. “Are you gonna be a good girl for me, Y/N?”

You let out a whimper as he pressed his thumbs into your inner thigh. You quickly tossed the flimsy t shirt over your head and off the bed, exposing your perky breasts to Jaebum’s hungry eyes.

“Fuck, you’re gorgeous,” he whispered before taking off his own shirt. You inhaled, taking in the sight of his abs and the faint trail leading to the bulge in his pants. “Now touch yourself.”

You let out a moan as your eyes remained on his and your fingers returned to your entrance.

“No, no,” he groaned, hand clutching your wrist and pulling your fingers away. “Did I say you could put your finger inside yet?”

“No,” you whispered, legs squirming as you ached to be touched. You licked at your lips, your free hand coming to squeeze at your own breasts. “Please, Jaebum. Please let me finger myself.”

“Fuck,” he whispered under his breath as he watched you knead at your nipple frantically. You looked so fucking delicious and desperate. “You’re so needy, Y/N.”

He dipped his head down, sucking at your sticky fingers and making you moan at the sight. “God you taste delicious. I could taste you all night, but since you’ve been waiting, why don’t you show me how you look when you’re cumming from your own fingers, okay?”

You nodded eagerly as he released his grip on you and you sunk two fingers into your entrance with a whimper. Jaebum moaned at the sight, pushing down his own sweatpants and boxers, and finally released his cock from its tight confinement.

“Oh fuck,” you cursed, watching as Jaebum squeezed his own cock in his hands, a small drop of precum leaking to the thick, red tip. You dipped your finger in faster, other hand sliding to your clit as you tried to match your pace to his strokes. You moaned in pleasure, never wanting more in your life than to have his cock in your hands, feeling those thick veins pulsing against your own palms.

“You like what you see sweetheart?” he smirked, slowing down his pace and giving himself one rough stroke up so that even more precum leaked to his tip. You moaned, licking at your lips and wanting nothing more than to press him against your tongue.

“Please Jaebum,” you whimpered, fingers slipping out of yourself as you reached forward for his arm. “I want you inside me already.”

He grinned, inching forward as if he had just been waiting for you to say that. “Aww, are your fingers not doing it for you?”

You pouted, closing your eyes in another whimper. “No, I need more. I need you.”

He chuckled, watching you arch in desperation. “Yeah, you want to feel my cock inside you? You want to cum around my dick, don’t you? Been dreaming about it all night, haven’t you sweetheart?”

He rubbed the tip of his dick against your clit and you groaned at the sweet friction, lifting your pelvis to align your entrance.

“Jaebum,” you whined.

“It’s too bad,” he teased, slapping his dick roughly against your pussy. “I only reward good, honest girls. You weren’t very honest today, were you?”

You whimpered, biting at your lip in agony as you shook your head.

He smirked, watching you squirm underneath him. “Be honest with me then. Since when did you start masturbating?”

“Jaebum, please!” you urged, trying to press your entrance harder against him. At the same time, your whole face blushed red at the question and it only urged Jaebum to tease you more.

He leaned away, squeezing your thigh harshly. “Y/N,” he warned.

“16!” You finally answered, hands flying to your face in embarrassment. “After a friend told me she got eaten out for the first time I went back home and fingered myself while imagining it was her boyfriend’s tongue.”

Jaebum bit at his lip, running his thumb across your clit. You sighed into his sweet touch. “That’s a good girl. Now tell me when did you start thinking of me?”

You groaned, feeling him press his tip to your entrance again as he swirled his thumb deliciously against your nub. “A-As soon as I saw you.”

You flushed, hiding your eyes behind the crook of your arm as you confessed. “After the first lecture, I waited until Lina fell asleep and I made myself cum while thinking about you.”

Jaebum groaned. “You naughty girl, you’re getting more wet just talking about it.”

You looked up at him again with a whimper. “Please, Jaebum, please I want you inside me.”

“Fuck,” was his only answer before he pressed his cock into your entrance, sliding slowly into your heat until you were filled to the brim.

“Oh god,” you sighed when he stilled inside you. You looked up to see Jaebum’s eyes squeezed tight, his muscles tense above you. After so much teasing, you realized he was just as much desperate for you as you were for him. You could feel him shiver against you.

“You’re so fucking tight,” he groaned, his body leaning down on yours as he nuzzled his face into your neck, lips sucking softly at your sensitive skin.

“Mm,” you whimpered, arching into him. “Jaebum.”

You felt him breathe loudly into your neck before he started moving, sliding his cock out until it was just the tip before slamming roughly back into you.

“Oh, Jaebum!” You moaned, hands coming to the back of his head, clutching at his hair as he continuously slammed his hips over and over into you.

You arched your hips, meeting his thrusts desperately as you felt the pleasure building in your core.

“Please don’t stop, Jaebum,” you begged, feeling yourself begin to squeeze around him.

He answered with a sloppy kiss to your lips, groaning into your mouth as he quickened his pace.

“Fuck,” he moaned, feeling you squeeze around him. “You feel so fucking good, Y/N.”

“Mm,” you muffled against him, pressing your lips to his throat. You sucked at his skin, relishing in the way his moans vibrated against your lips. Just the feeling of his deep groans vibrating from his throat was enough to make you lose it.

You moaned into your kisses as his thrusts became sloppier and more urgent.

“Oh god, Jae—” you clutched tighter around his neck, the pleasure tightening in your core. “Please don’t stop.”

Jaebum answered with faster thrusts, hitting your g-spot each time and sending electric shocks of pleasure throughout your body.

“Mm, Jaebum!” you moaned before the pleasure building in your core finally snapped, sending a shock of white heat throughout your body.

“F-fuck,” Jaebum stuttered, feeling you clench around his cock. He thrusted into you roughly a few more strokes, teasing out your high until he was spilling hot spurts of white inside you.

You sighed into the crook of his neck as you felt the final waves of his orgasm twitching inside you.

“Wow,” you breathed out.

You felt Jaebum chuckle against you before he pulled out, flipping over to your side.

“That was…wow,” you whispered, a dreamy smile on your face.

Jaebum grinned, turning on his side to look at you. He smirked, “I think that’s the most honest you’ve been all night.”

You chuckled, rolling your eyes. You pressed a gentle kiss to his throat before resting your head over his chest. You let out a satisfied hum, feeling the steady rhythm of his heart against your ear.

“Can I be more honest then and tell you I want another round tonight?”

Jaebum smiled, running his fingers through your hair softly. “Oh no worries, sweetheart. The whole house is going to find out you’re not a virgin by the time I’m finished with you.”

Captain of the Basketball Team! Im Jaebum

everyone on campus had a crush on JB

everyone

especially after he’d brought the basketball team to a winning streak in the championships the year before

he’d been a campus hero, and he still was

everyone, everyone loved JB

he’s a good student, too

he’s always ahead in his classes, and makes sure his teammates get the tutoring they need when they slip behind

when you had math with him the semester before, you used to admire how he’d bring the team’s sleepy eyed shooting guard, Yugyeom, breakfast every morning

he was everyone’s dream guy, including yours

so when he walked up to the on campus coffee stand you worked at to order breakfast and coffees for himself and the other six members of the team, you could have fainted

he carried on a polite, customer service conversation with you as your coworker made his order

asking you how your day was going, what your name was

and once his coffees were ready, he glanced over at you with a soft smile and said

“I’ll see you at the opening game this weekend, Y/N?”

you couldn’t do anything but nod and smile so much your cheeks hurt

there was no way, however, that JB would be able to spot you in the crowd when you arrived at the stadium that friday night with your roommate

he probably wasn’t looking for you anyway

but you were looking for him, and you watched him play the entire game as point guard, leading his team, smiling at the audiences, winning everyone’s hearts

the next monday rolled around,

and JB was back at the coffee stand during your shift

“I’m glad you decided to come to the game on friday”

“oh, you saw me?”

“yeah, I was hoping to catch you after the game ended, but there was a lot going on.”

you had no idea what to say to that

here, standing before you, was you college crush since freshman year, sweaty from his morning workout in sweatpants and a tight, dry fit shirt

and he was telling you he wanted to talk to you

you couldn’t breathe, couldn’t speak

he winked and walked away

on wednesday, he left his number for you on the back of his receipt

flash forward months later

you’re so proud of JB and all his accomplishments

and you’re even more proud that you get to call the captain of the basketball team, the university’s star athlete, your boyfriend

he always makes sure there’s a spot waiting for you in the front row at every game

and he’ll ALWAYS surprise you at work and in class with breakfast

he’s so considerate even though he has SO many things going on in his own life

he always makes time for you

k imma stop because college JB is the cutest thing ever and i’m gonna cry bYE

xoxo

kenna

Fling [3] / Jaebeom x Reader

Pairing: Jaebeom x Reader

Genre: College au

Warnings: strong language, sexual content, angst, & fluff

Word Count: 2.8k

Summary: “You definitely will not see me again that’s why it’s called a one night stand.”

Previous Parts: 01, 02,

As you walked out of your last class for the night you felt your shoulders relax and a sigh of relief escape your lips. Silently you scrolled through your phone as you walked towards your locker.

“Hey” a voice sounded

Looking up you saw Jaebeom leaning up against your locker, a smile spread across his face. You couldn’t help but laugh to yourself and grin at the boy.

“Why are you on campus?” you asked as you softly moved him aside

Quickly you tossed your books onto the small shelf within your locker. With a soft bang you shut the metal door and turned to Jaebeom, still waiting for an answer.

“It’s our da- friend date.” he corrected himself “I’m here to pick you up”

“Well duh” you joked “I meant why’d you come to my school and not the apartment?”

“I wanted to see it” he commented “I never actually went to college so to see the campus is weird but exciting”

“Sign up” you stated bluntly

Jaebeom raised an eyebrow and stared at you with a questionable look

“Our fall term starts in four weeks, if you send in an application now I seriously doubt they’d decline. You could go in for business or whatever fancies you”

The two of you stood quietly for a moment. Jaebeom never thought of going to college because he already had everything set up for him. When he turned twenty he was to take over the family business, there was never a need for an education. However, something about being able to see you almost everyday without needing an excuse made Jaebeom warm on the inside.

“I’ll think about it” Jaebeom spoke softly “let’s get going”

Jaebeom began walking out of the school and you quickly followed in step. As you walked all you could feel were eyes on you, something you weren’t use to.

“Don’t mind them” Jaebeom said with a smile as he looked down to you. You nodded not knowing what to say.

You didn’t mind the staring per say, you just didn’t want what was going to come after the staring. Pointless drama was going to come out of this because people can only assume the worst when it comes to Jaebeom. You enjoyed hanging out with Jaebeom as weird as it felt. You and him have only been friends for a short while but you never expected that you, of all people would actually want him around. He was definitely a weird character, everything he did was unexpected.

You went to reach for the passenger door handle when Jaebeom swooped in front of you and opened it swiftly. You eyed the cheeky boy and smiled “thank you”

“Anything for you” he grinned softly.

The two of you drove in silence. The sky began to grow darker and you began to grow more curious. You looked to Jaebeom then out the window and then slowly back to Jaebeom. You eyed his face for a moment before your eyes traveled down to his chest, you stared at his sweatshirt and then to where his hand was. Resting on the shift of the car, you stared at his hands for a moment too long.

They were big but not bulky, his fingers were slender and beautiful. You began to wonder what it would feel like to wrap your hand in his or what it would feel like to have his hands cup your cheeks. Quickly you shook the thoughts off and hoped he hadn’t noticed your staring.

“We’re here” he chimed

Jaebeom pulled the car over to the side of the dirt road and shut the ignition off.

“Is this the part where you kill me?” you joked half heartedly.

“Why do you think I would do that?”

“It’s always the pretty ones” you commented.

“I guess I better be cautious of you then” he grinned “come on let’s go”

The two of you exited the car and with a soft beep and two clicks Jaebeom locked the car up. You followed closely behind Jaebeom as the two of you walked down the dark dirt road. The farther you walked the more you began to hear.

There were faint sounds of laughing and music but most of all you could hear the sound of rushing water. As you came closer to the noise it got brighter, your eyes wandered and you began to make out where you were.

“This is the abandoned railway” you commented

You looked around at all the laughing people enjoying themselves. There were lamps everywhere and small fires for each small group. Different music blared from different areas of the railroad but it all came together in beat.

Jaebeom came to a halt but you were too caught up in the moment to realize, which caused you to smack right into his back. Rubbing your forehead you muttered sorry but he didn’t hear.

Turning to you Jaebeom smirked playfully “you like swimming?”

“Yes?” you said quizzically “why?”

Without warning Jaebeom began to strip right in front of you. Slowly he brought his shirt over his head and tossed it to the ground, his black hair slightly disheveled. You eyed the boy silently, taking in everything he was offering. You wanted to say something, anything, but nothing came out.

With a soft sigh Jaebeom unbuckled his pants and stepped out of them revealing his tight black boxers to you. You kept eye contact with the cheeky boy in front of you.

“Like what you see?” he joked

“I’m not looking at anything but your eyes, perv.”

“You’re missing out”

Two can play at this game.

Grabbing the hem of your shirt you slowly brought the cloth over your head revealing your bra. Throwing the shirt aside you smirked back at Jaebeom who was completely taken back. With a chuckle you unbuttoned your pants and slowly stepped out of them. As you took your legs out of each pant leg you kept direct eye contact with Jaebeom and he with you.

Standing straight up you dropped the pants onto the heap of clothes.

“Like what you see?” you mocked playfully

“Uh” Jaebeom coughed awkwardly “I’m not looking”

“Really? Cause I swear I saw you eyeing my boobs”

“Nope I can’t say that happened” Jaebeom laughed and moved away from you to catch his breath.

You walked closer to him and eyed the water below.

“Is there a place we go to get in the water or?” you asked

“We jump” Jaebeom laughed “from here”

You gulped slightly and eyed the boy standing besides you. You didn’t have a fear of heights but the water looked rough right now but you weren’t about to pussy out especially in front of Jaebeom, he’d never let you live it down.

“Am I going first?” he asked

“Please do the honors”

Jaebeom looked to you and sent an air kiss before jumping into the rushing water. A minute passed and he didn’t come up for air, you squinted but it was too dark to make anything else out except the waves.

“Jaebeom!” you shouted down.

You began to feel a sharp pain in your chest and without thinking you jumped off the rusted railway. The cold air of the night scratched against your body as gravity pulled you into the rushing water. With a loud splash the water devoured your body and the chillness of the river numbed you instantly.

Kicking with your legs you came to the surface quickly, it never felt so good to breathe. You looked around and you still couldn’t see Jaebeom. Cupping your mouth you continued to spin around

“Jaebeom” you shouted

No response.

You felt like you were about to cry from frustration and fear. As you went to yell his name again you felt hands on your hips. Jumping around you saw Jaebeom peeking his head out of the water, a grin playing on his lips.

You felt your lip quiver and your eyes heat up. Jaebeom dropped the grin and stood himself up, his face written in confusion.

“what?”

“You dick!” you yelled as you slapped Jaebeom’s chest “I was worried about your dumb ass”

Jaebeom couldn’t help but laugh softly “I’m sorry”

Eyeing him you let out a huff “I seriously doubt that.. Maybe you should just go over there and drown I’m seriously mad right now”

With a look of sympathy Jaebeom opened his arms wide and pulled you in for a hug. You felt your senses tingle and even though you were absolutely freezing your body felt hot. You tried to focus on the friendly hug from Jaebeom but you could only think of how his bare arms were wrapped around you and that his bare chest was pressed up against you, bare skin-to-skin contact was not something you anticipated tonight but you also didn’t think he was gonna have you jump off a bridge.

Pulling away you smiled but your teeth quickly began to chatter uncontrollably.

“Are you really that cold?” Jaebeom asked

“Yep” you breathed “can we go somewhere warm?”

The two of you left the cold water and grabbed your clothes in bunches, as the two of you were too wet to put the clothes on. Your teeth continued to chatter all the way to Jaebeom’s place which is apparently what he thought you meant as ‘somewhere warm’.

“Here put this on” Jaebeom ordered as he threw his sweatshirt at you

“What’re you gonna wear?” you asked as you brought the sweatshirt over your shivering body.

“Nothin” he paused “I’ve walked through the lobby in worse attire”

“You mean the lack thereof?” you asked

“You get what I mean” he laughed “come on, let’s get in before you freeze to death”

The two of you stepped out of the car and semi-ran to the lobby. As you entered the front desk lady chuckled softly and Jaebeom waved to her awkwardly. Stepping lightly on the carpet the two of you entered into the elevator and stood silently. With three silent beeps indicating you were passing levels, the doors opened on level four, Jaebeom’s floor.

Turning his key lightly the door opened and the two of you walked into the dark condo.

“Watch your eyes” Jaebeom commented

“Hu-?”

Before you could finish Jaebeom flicked the light switches and all the lights within the condo quickly turned on. You winced slightly at the sudden light but your eyes quickly adjusted. You followed Jaebeom into his room silently and stood next to the bed awkwardly.

“I don’t think any of my clothes will actually fit you” Jaebeom grinned at you “so I’ll just grab you a pair of sweatpants and a dry sweatshirt”

“T-this one is fine, really” you commented

“It’s not wet?” he asked as he approached you.

Jaebeom grabbed the sweatshirts collar in his knuckles, he touched the fabric lightly and rubbed it between his fingers slowly. His eyes traveled from his hands to your face and he stood there silently staring at you.

“R-really” you stuttered “it’s fine.. See? All dry..”

“Why’re you stuttering?” Jaebeom chuckled “are you nervous?”

“Why would I be nervous?” you asked

“Because I’m standing here in front of you. Invading your space. I mean our noses could be touching if I bent down slightly”

“Then don’t bend down”

“Ouch” Jaebeom winced as he clutched his chest “that hurts y/n”

“Oh jesus” you breathed “stop being dramatic”

The room fell awkwardly silent, you could sense there was something he wasn’t saying. Looking up at him you paused, what if what he wanted to say was something you weren’t ready for?

“Is there something on your mind?” you asked softly.

“Is it that obvious?” he chuckled “but yeah.. There’s something that’s been weighing on me lately.”

Slowly you sat down on the bed and motioned for Jaebeom to sit next to you. His eyes switched from looking at you to looking at the bed. Moments passed and he finally sat himself down.

“Get talking” you chuckled “we got all night”

Jaebeom began to twiddle with his thumbs nervously. You noticed how he softly would clench and unclench his jaw, as if what he was about to say was too hard for him to put into words.

“y/n.. I know you said you wanted to start out as friends and obviously I’m trying my best because I enjoy being with you but I can’t pretend that my feelings towards you are strictly platonic.”

Looking up from his hands, Jaebeom eyed you softly.

“I understand where you’re coming from, you want to make sure I’m not gonna use you, hurt you, or whatever else runs through your mind when it comes to me. I’ll admit, I don’t have the best reputation when it comes to relationships, I tend to mess around a lot but you’re different in the sense of how you make me feel.”

You felt your face begin to heat up, with every word that Jaebeom slowly spoke you began to realize how you felt towards him.

“All those other girls, they never put me in my place like you do. They never really made me reflect or work for what I wanted. I hope what I’m saying let’s you understand what I’m feeling.. If not I can put it into a simpler perspective for you.”

“I get what you’re saying.. But what’s the simpler perspective?”

Turning his body to you Jaebeom breathed out slowly and looked you dead in the eye.

“I like you a lot and I want more than a friendship with you and I don’t think I can sit here and act like your best bro when I’m not.”

“Okay.” you exhaled slowly, you tried to find your words but you couldn't.

“Is that all you’re going to say?” Jaebeom paused “you’re just gonna say okay? After what I just spilled out to you.. I-”

“Kiss me.”

Jaebeom took a double-take when those words set in “what?”

“I said, kiss me”

Without hesitation Jaebeom quickly leaned in, his hands wrapped around your face, pulling you forward, allowing the two of you to meet in the middle. His lips merged with yours igniting a sensation in your gut that you’ve never felt before. In this moment you felt like melting into Jaebeom’s hands, the way he held your face and kissed your lips made you turn into putty.

Slowly the two of you pulled away, silently gasping for air. You gulped nervously and looked to Jaebeom for words but he was at a loss for them.

“What’s this mean?” he finally spoke, his words slightly shaken.

“Uh” you breathed “I don’t know.”

“I’m okay with that” he chuckled “I just want to be with you.”

“Actually?” you commented “I don’t want to give every fiber of my being to you just to have to watch you walk away from me in the end. I will not set myself up for failure, not with you.”

Jaebeom sat silently taking in your words and understanding what you were saying. He felt confident in himself and with you. He would do better if it meant having you by his side.

“I would be honored to be able to call you mine, officially or behind closed doors. Whatever makes you comfortable.”

“What would be safer?”

“In terms of?” he asked confused

“Do you not realize how popular you are?” you laughed “I don’t want to be eaten alive by journalists or gossip pages.”

“I’ll eat-”

“Jaebeom!” you gasped “I’m being serious..”

The two of you chuckled, “we’ll make it work, I promise.” he spoke warmly

“Okay” you grinned “good”

“Sooo” Jaebeom hummed “do I get to officially ask you to be my girlfriend or is it already kind of set in stone?”

You began to laugh softly “you can if you want to”

“Okay then” Jaebeom smiled as he sat himself up straight “will you, y/n, take the title and duties of being my girlfriend?”

Nodding happily you smiled “yes I would happily do so”

Jaebeom leaned in and planted a soft, warm, kiss onto your forehead.

“Bed time?” he muttered

“Yes please” you nodded.

You slid yourself under the covers and snuggled into the comforter. Jaebeom shut the light off and took a running jump into the bed causing you to fly off the mattress for a second before dropping back into the soft material.

“Did I get some good air with that jump?” he chuckled as he got under the covers

“I couldn’t really see because it’s dark but since I flew for a moment I think you did pretty well”

The two of you chuckled before it fell silent. The only sound was that of your guys’ breathing.

“Hey” Jaebeom piped up “remember when we fucked here in this very bed?”

“Shut up” you joked as you slapped Jaebeom “go to bed”

Rubbing his arm slowly Jaebeom pouted “fine, meanie”

Friday Nights with Defsoul

Pairing: Jaebeom x Reader

Genre: College!au, Best friend!Jaebeom, best friends to lovers, fluff, fluff, and more fluff

Word Count: 8,245 words

[ ft. GOT7 and some DAY6 members ]

A/N Yes, I am aware that I misspelled Jaebeom’s name here, but I wrote this before he clarified the spelling, so until I find time to edit this, you’re just going to have to sit through jAebUm lmao oops; thanks for reading tho! mwah

It's been a while since Jaebum last attended a party. Not because he was busy- even though he was- but because he just didn't feel like it. After all, parties were only fun when he was in the mood to get wasted and spend the night dancing with his best friends, so he didn't see the point of attending one when he felt like doing something else more productive.

Like hosting his radio segment. He'd only decided to join the campus' radio station as a DJ in the October of the previous academic year. It was in his third year of college that he composed a significant amount of songs and gained enough experience to be confident enough to share them with the world that was his university. Finally giving into Park Sungjin’s, his senior, antics about becoming a part of the crew, Jaebum now appeared on the station every Friday night to share his music in a segment he (lamely) liked to call "Friday Nights with Defsoul". Now, he was in his second year of hosting the segment, and his fourth year of college, set to graduate at the end of March- if he managed to not screw anything up.

Despite not being in the mood to party, Jaebum couldn't say no to his friend Jackson's invitation- not when Jackson was using this party as an excuse to finally relax from his hectic life. It was rare that Jackson was willing to let loose for the night (he was always so busy with his extra-curricular activities), and since Jaebum figured that his friend needed all his support during this tough time in his life, he agreed to be present. So here he was, half-heartedly sipping at a drink that his over-enthusiastic friend, Park Jaehyung, had given him, standing at the kitchen counter, and snacking on a bowl of chips that he had poured for himself.

"Jaebum! My man!"

Ah. The sweet sound of a dongsaeng forgetting to call me hyung.

Hong Kong native and fellow performance group member Jackson Wang carelessly calls out his hyung's name as he bounds through the kitchen door with a red cup in his hands. "I've been looking all over for you!"

"Have you really?" Jaebum asks sarcastically. "You seemed so eager to leave me alone, by myself, when you went to go mingle with your Chinese friends."

Failing to notice that Jackson didn't come up to him alone, Jaebum almost misses the small chuckle that comes from Jackson's friend. A girl with a lean frame, pale skin, long black hair, and the warmest brown eyes Jaebum had ever seen watches their exchange silently. You stand behind Jackson, watching amusedly as he playfully hit his hyung's arm. "Aish, hyung, don't be like that. They're Chinese, like me. They remind me of home."

Jaebum nods understandingly, patting his friend on the back. "Okay, okay, I get it. Go have fun- "

"EY, LUCAS! Glad you could make it, man!"

And just like that, Jackson forgets about his friends and leaves the kitchen to go mingle with a handful of people who look too young to be at a college party.

"Don't they look a little too young to be here?" Jaebum comments, eyeing the new arrivals and starting a conversation with the girl that Jackson had left him with to entertain.

You seem to know who he's talking about and nod. "Yeah, they are. They're just in high school."

Jaebum's eyes nearly pop out of his head. "Eh?! And Jackson invited them here? How does he even know them?"

Amused at his reaction, you smile. "They met at a summer camp a couple of months ago. You know what he's like, it's so easy for him to get homesick. I'm happy he's able to make so many friends that let him feel like he's at home, even if just for a little while."

Jaebum watches the kitchen door warily, largely aware of the trouble that the underaged teens could get into if they were caught drinking. Sensing his discomfort, you speak up again. "I wouldn't worry too much about them. I made Jackson swear that he would take care of them tonight. No alcohol, no drugs, no funny business whatsoever."

These words unexpectedly give him comfort, despite the fact that they come from a complete stranger. "Thanks." He says. "That makes me feel better."

You nod, but don’t say anything back as you reach into the fridge and grab one of the many smoothie bottles that Jackson liked to stock up on.

"You seem to be really close to him. How come I've never heard of you before?" Jaebum asks.

Swallowing the sip you had just taken, you sit on a counter stool as you answer. "Jackson and I go back. Summer before freshman year, I think? We met at summer camp."

Raising an eyebrow, Jaebum tilts his head, confused. "Oh, so you're-?"

"Chinese?" You chuckle. "No. I'm Spanish-Korean, actually."

Jaebum's head tilts in confusion. "Spanish-Korean? But then why would you go to one of Jackson's Chinese summer camps?"

"I speak Chinese. At least, now I do. Back then, I wanted to get a better grasp of the language before heading off to college, so I decided to attend a Chinese summer camp." You tell him, taking another sip.

"So how many languages do you speak? Or is it just Spanish, Chinese, and Korean?" Jaebum can't stop himself from asking.

You shake your head, smiling proudly. "I'm also fluent in English, Russian, Japanese, and French."

"Wow." Jaebum's voice comes out filled with awe. "That's amazing. It really is, I've never met someone fluent in so many languages. You could conquer the world, probably."

Chuckling softly, you brush the hair out of your face. "Thanks. I'm flattered."

"If you don't mind me asking, why so many?" Once again, Jaebum can't keep his nose out of your business.

"Oh, I want to be a translator or a travel guide." You tell him honestly. "I love travelling, and the only thing I'm good at is talking to people, so I figured I'd make a career out of it."

"That sounds fun." Jaebum comments. "So, your major is-?"

"Majoring in Linguistics, minoring in World History." You answer. "What about you?"

The conversation is suddenly about him, and he thinks it’s such a shame because he could spend all night learning the tiniest details about this very interesting girl.

"Major in Film, minor in Music Theory." He says.

"Oh, you're into music?" You ask. "Do you compose?"

Jaebum nods at this, takes a sip of his drink, and gestures for you to share his bowl of chips.

"Are you, perhaps, on the campus radio?" You raise an eyebrow.

Jaebum is shocked. Unless he told them directly, no one ever even guessed that he was a DJ for the campus' radio station. "How did you know?"

You snap your fingers, looking at him with a triumphant look in your eyes. "I knew your voice sounded familiar! You're Defsoul, aren't you? The DJ that comes on every Friday night?"

Oh, my god. For the first time in his life, Jaebum is speechless. How did this girl, who didn't even know him before this, figure that out faster than any of his actual friends?

"Um- I, uh- "

Taking a sip from your drink, you continue. "I love your segment. I've been listening to it ever since you started."

Wow. "Thank you. That means so much to me, really." Jaebum finally finds his words.

"Although..." You hesitate, and this makes Jaebum even more curious.

"What is it?" He pries.

"Well," You pause. "Have you ever considered, um...calling it by a different name?"

...excuse me? "Come again?"

"Don't misunderstand me, please!" You hurriedly apologize. "Not to be rude, or anything, it's just...your segment name is sort of..."

Jaebum senses that you’re having difficulty putting it nicely, so he offers words of his own. "Lame? Boring? Cliché?"

You nod, relieved that you don't have to say it yourself. "Exactly."

Jaebum gives you an expression of distaste. "I happen to like calling it that, thank you very much. My friends think it's a good name too!"

"I'm not saying that they don't! It's just that you could have a name that's catchier, more unique, more memorable- so maybe one with not too many syllables in it- "

"Okay, okay, stop. I get it." Despite himself, Jaebum finds himself laughing, thoroughly amused by this girl and her personality. "I still don't know your name."

"I’m Y/N." You tell him.

Jaebum offers his hand for you to shake. "Im Jaebum."

"Finally." You say, firmly gripping onto his hand as you shake it. "A name and face behind the lamest radio segment name in the world."

Jaebum's jaw drops as he watches you laugh with an incredulous look on his face. "Wow, you really- "

"I'm joking, I'm joking!" You cackle unreservedly. "Forgive me."

Jaebum decides to poke some fun at you. "No, I don't think I will."

Your face falls. "Ah, oppa, please! We only just met!"

Jaebum shakes his head stubbornly, taking a sip of his drink.

"Fine." You resolve. "If it helps my case in any way, I'll personally make it my mission to find you a better segment name."

Jaebum shrugs, swallowing his drink as he watches you munch on his chips. "I don't see the point of changing it, to be honest. I'll be gone in a couple of months."

"Okay, first of all, graduation's still in March. It's only September, you still have a long way to go." You point out. "Second of all, that's all the more reason to change it! You don't want to leave this school known as the guy who couldn't come up with a cooler name for his segment now, do you?"

Jaebum narrows his eyes. "As much as I hate to admit it, you make a valid point."

"Of course, I do." At this, Jaebum scoffs, making you laugh. "Look, since you're obviously incapable of doing it yourself, I'll do it, okay?"

Jaebum looks at you incredulously. "Yah. Don't you think you've insulted me enough?"

"Sorry! Sorry, I'm joking." You apologize quickly. "I can't help it. I'll stop, I promise. As an apology for my behavior, how about I make you a drink?"

Jaebum accepts, looking into his cup with distaste. "Why the hell not? You owe it to me to make me one, and this one tastes like shit anyways."

You get up from your stool. "I'll be right back."

The both of you fall into conversation so naturally that night, that neither of you notice how long you talk for until the music dies and the small crowd goes quiet. You exit the kitchen to be greeted by the sight of passed out bodies sprawled across the floor, the party host nowhere in sight. While you do a thorough check of the first floor for any conscious party-goers, Jaebum does a sweep of the second floor to find Jackson unconscious on his bed. Setting some painkillers and a glass of water on his bedside table, Jaebum goes back downstairs and leaves the house with you, locking the door as you walk out. You quietly chat about random things as he walks you back to your dorm, and Jaebum decides he wants to be your friend. Obtaining your number, the both of you text each other the next day. And the day after that. And the day after that.

Suddenly, going to parties doesn't seem so bad anymore.

-=-=-=-

Jaebum feels his phone vibrate in his pocket as he exits his last class of the day.

Y/N: Hey, are you doing anything for the rest of the day?

He feels a smile growing on his lips, but he stops himself from smiling at his phone in public.

JB: No, why?

Y/N: Last class' prof isn't showing up, and everyone else is busy. Want to get dinner?

JB: It's like...5pm.

Y/N: Fine. Want to eat food, extend eating into the hours of the night, and call it dinner?

At this, Jaebum allows the corners of his mouth to curl up in a grin.

JB: Sure. Where do you want to meet?

Y/N: I'm at the convenience store in front of the social sciences building. Bring your wallet.

Jaebum can't help but chuckle at this. He immediately stuffs his notebook in his bag, and heads for the social sciences building. When he gets there, he sees you standing outside the convenience store across the street. He's about to cross when he sees you motion for him to stay put, crossing the street yourself. In your hand is a plastic bag of various snacks and drinks that you had just purchased.

"Take this, please." You heave, holding the bag out for him to take. Jaebum receives it, noticing red marks on your hand, left behind by the weight of the bag. "Thank you. God, that's heavy."

"You could've asked for two bags." Jaebum points out, falling into step beside you as the both of you walk in the direction of a nearby park. You shake your head adamantly.

"Tsk, tsk, Jaebum. Don't think like that. It's not good for the environment." You tut, imitating the tone of a mom scolding her child. "Do you want help with your bag?"

He raises an eyebrow. "You just gave this to me, and now you want it back?"

"Not the convenience store bag, dummy." You smile. "Your backpack, I meant."

"Ah. No, I'm fine." Jaebum refuses.

"You sure?" You press. "The bag I gave you is quite heavy, and I'm not carrying anything. I'd feel bad if you were the only one doing the work here."

Jaebum smirks, turning his head to look at you. "What kind of man would I be if I made you carry my bag for me?"

Your jaw drops and you put a hand to your chest dramatically. "Now why'd you have to bring gender roles into this? I'm just offering an exchange of baggage!"

Shaking his head, Jaebum's smile doesn't leave his face as the both of you arrive at the park and settle on the grass. He sits, crossing his ripped-jean clad legs. You mirror his position, sitting in front of him, comfortable in your leggings. Tugging the plastic bag closer, you pours out its contents onto the grass, revealing bags of chips, and four bottles of drinks, two of each kind.

"First things first," You start. "Don't think I'm some kind of gold digger or anything like that just because I told you to bring your wallet."

Jaebum smirks, looking at you with amusement. "Wasn't planning on it."

"I only asked you to bring your wallet because since I bought us snacks, I expect you to pay for dinner." You declare, ripping open a bag of chips. "And not in the gentleman-should-always-pay manner, but in the it's-my-turn-to-pay manner."

"Sounds fair." He helps himself to another bag, opening it and setting it in between them so that the both of them can share. "What are you, some kind of feminist?"

You cock your head to the side in genuine confusion. "Huh?"

"That's the second comment you've made today about gender roles."

"Oh." You laugh, understanding. "No, I'm not. I just don't like it when people hear my words but listen to a different meaning, so I have a habit of saying things explicitly. Miscommunication is so common these days, don't you think?"

He nods in agreement. "Too true."

"Besides," you add, lifting a chip to your mouth but not eating it yet. "it's easier to let people know what type of person you are straight up instead of having them judge every single thing you do."

Jaebum thoughtfully watches you as you continue to munch on your salty snack. As a student, he was too familiar with the saying 'honesty is the best policy', having heard it almost every day, but you take it to a different level, give it a completely different meaning.

Noticing his blatant staring, you raise an eyebrow in the middle of chewing. "Why are you staring at me like that?" You ask, voice muffled by the hand you raise to cover your mouth.

"Oh. Uh, nothing." Jaebum answers, averting his eyes. "You're probably the most honest person I've ever met."

The expression on your face is unreadable, Jaebum decides, as you nod.

"It's a good thing." He adds, just in case it isn't clear.

Not failing to pick up on this, you chuckle, tucking your hair behind your ear. "Really? Most people don't think so."

"Oh? Why not?"

You shrug. "A lot of people say I'm too blunt. Too brutal when it comes to expressing myself. That I don't know how to sugar coat even the harshest words."

"And how do you feel about that?"

You shrug, meeting his eyes. "I don't really care. They're all empty words. At the end of the day, the truth is the truth, and nothing can change that."

At that moment, Jaebum notices the sun starting to set. Its light tints everything in hues of orange and purple, reflecting off of the brown of your eyes. The last rays of the day kiss your skin and the strands of your hair, giving you an ethereal glow.

"Stay put." Jaebum orders, reaching into his bag and digging around for his camera.

"Didn't have plans of moving at all." You comment.

Jaebum brings out his camera and turns it on, hoping to capture the scene before him.

"Smile." He tells you.

Lightly grinning and striking a casual pose, you stare back at the camera lens. You watch as Jaebum frequently changes his position, making sure to not leave any angle uncaptured. He even plucks a random daisy he found, asking you to hold it up to your face and pose with it. You oblige, even moving your snacks aside so you could get up to stand and pose as Jaebum directs you from behind the camera.

By the time Jaebum decides he's done with the impromptu photoshoot, the sun's completely gone, and your space on the ground is dimly lit by a nearby streetlight. You finish the rest of your snacks and drinks while looking at the pictures he took, and when that's done, fall into natural conversation as you walk around, looking for a good restaurant.

"Was that for a project?" You ask as you’re seated at one of the tables in a barbeque restaurant.

"The pictures? No." Jaebum answers, picking up the menu card and scanning it. The both of you had previously decided that since he would be the one paying, he would be choosing the menu for tonight.

"Then why take so many?" You ask, thanking the waitress that comes to bring them your side dishes.

Before the waitress leaves, Jaebum places his orders and returns the menu card. "I had to take a photography class in my freshman year. It became a hobby of mine."

"Do you have a photography account on Instagram or something?" You ask. "Photographers are into that, right?"

"Yeah, I do." He confirms, somewhat baffled. "How are you so good at that?"

"Hm?" You raise your eyebrows. "Good at what?"

"You're the only person to ask me these without me having to mention it first. None of my friends asked about the radio segment or my Instagram. I've barely known you for a week and you've already figured out both!"

You shrug, smiling and sitting up as the meat is served. "Intuition, I guess."

As Jaebum gets to work in grilling the meat, you nibble on the side dishes. Dinner is quiet. The two of you fall into a comfortable silence, your chewing being accompanied by soft sounds of approval at the taste of the meat.

You guys finish eating just before the clock strikes 8pm. You wait outside as Jaebum settles the bill, and you both decide you want to take a walk before returning home.

"Before I forget," You start, brushing your hair back. From his angle, Jaebum can see the way the streetlights illuminate your face, giving your skin a warm glow. The shadows that fall across your features contrast greatly against the milky color of your skin, giving your face depth and definition. The moonlight kisses the highest points of your face and brings a twinkle to your eyes, nature giving you an ethereal glow for the second time that day. Despite it only being his second time to witness this kind of natural beauty, Jaebum didn't think he would ever get tired of seeing you like this, nor did he think he would ever stop craving to capture every single moment like it.

"Def's Soul." You say.

Jaebum blinks. "What?"

"I told you I would come up with a new name for your segment." You state simply. "I decided on one just in time for your next appearance on the station."

"But, that's just my code name."

You hum in disagreement. "No, it's not. Def's Soul. As in, the soul of Def. Your soul."

Jaebum looks at you in amusement. He has to admit; it is kind of catchy.

"Music comes from within, right? By sharing your music to the world, you're giving everyone who listens a peek into your soul, your mind. I thought of calling it 'Peeking Into Defsoul', but that's just not attractive to listen to, it has a weird connotation, and it's worse than what you've got now. You can also call it 'Soul in Seoul; by Def', but I think 'Def's Soul' is the best." You finish your mini ramble about the segment name, turning to look at Jaebum's reaction. Jaebum can see on your face that you’re happy with what you had come up with, and abandons all plans of bickering with you about not needing to change the name of his segment at all.

"Okay." He concludes. "Def's Soul it is."

-=-=-=-

"Hey, everybody, welcome back. I hope you all had a wonderful week, hung out with some friends, aced all your tests. I know I certainly did. Even if you didn't, there's always next week.

Before we get down to business and listen to some sick tunes, I just want everyone to know that I'm going to be changing my segment name. That's right, from now on this segment will no longer be known as 'Friday Nights with Defsoul', but 'Def's Soul'. As in my soul.

If you want to know why, ask away and I'll reply in a bit, but for now, let's welcome the weekend with Sucker by the Jonas Brothers."

The live comments feed is suddenly full of questions on why he suddenly decided to change the segment name. When the song comes to an end, Jaebum turns the microphone back on.

"A lot of you are asking why I suddenly decided to change the name.

To be honest, it wasn't my idea at all. I was content with the previous name, but I met someone who recognized my voice from radio and told me that it was such a corny name. So, she helped choose a new name, and that's when she mentioned 'Def's Soul'.

Basically, it means that by showing you all my music and my personal playlists, I'm giving you guys a peek into my soul, my mind. A song says a lot about the composer and lyricist, the same way you can tell a lot about someone by the way they compile their personal playlists.

In my opinion, it's one of the most intimate things a person can bare, yet also one of the vaguest. As those of you who study the arts should know, art can be interpreted in many different ways. Some interpretations are exactly the message you want to convey, and others are the exact opposite. So, by sharing my music with you, I'm baring my soul while at the same time, covering it up for you guys to decipher and uncover.

Here's your next look: we have one of my personal favorites, Teenager, by yours truly, featuring my friend, Jackson Wang. Enjoy."

Jaebum switches off the microphone, leaning back in his chair and sipping on a bottle of water as he listens to one of his latest compositions blare through the speakers of the studio.

Things in front of my eyes look new...

You brighten even the deep part of my heart...

-=-=-=-

"You were right." Jaebum comments, sinking down on the grass. You look up, and, seeing the cat in Jaebum's arms, take hold of it immediately, cooing and petting its head. "Def's Soul is a much better name."

You raise an eyebrow, looking at him triumphantly. "Oh? What made you realize it?"

"A couple of kids in my cinematography class were talking about it." He says. "Then I passed a couple of people on my way here who were also talking about it. I guess it just rolls of the tongue more easily."

You grin as you strokes the cat's head. It purrs, nuzzling its head against your arm. "I'm glad."

You stroke it a couple of more times. "What's her name?"

Jaebum looks at you blankly, clearly not paying attention. You chuckle. "Your cat. What's her name?"

"Nora." Jaebum watches as his cat cozies up to you, looking the most content she ever had. "She likes you."

"Really? I like her too." You grin widely, bringing Nora to your face to rub cheeks with her.

"You should cat-sit sometime." Jaebum suggests. "I tend to get really busy with practice."

"Practice? For what?" You ask.

"Dance practice. I'm part of a performance group."

You stare at him unbelievingly. "No way. For real?"

Jaebum nods nonchalantly.

"That's so cool! You're so multi-talented, can I watch you guys practice? I'll take care of Nora in the practice room and I'll stay out of your way. Promise!"

Chuckling at your enthusiasm, Jaebum finds himself nodding. "Sure. You can stay with Youngjae's friend who always comes."

"Yes!" You cheer, then lean down to talk to Nora. "You hear that Nora? We're going to see Jaebum-oppa dance!"

A strange feeling appears in Jaebum's chest, one he can't explain. "What?"

Looking up innocently, you meet his eyes. "Hm?"

"What did you call me?"

Tilting your head confusedly, you answer. "Oppa?"

Calm down, Jaebum, your heart's beating a little too fast right now. Stop thinking about how cute she is when she does that. "Why? You never call me that."

"I was...talking to Nora..." You say, confused as to why it was such a big deal.

Oh, Y/N. If only you knew.

-=-=-=-

A couple of days later, you find yourself walking alongside Jaebum, Nora's carrier in hand. He's leading you to their practice room, telling you stories on the way there. Like how one time, the boys had a bonding night and ended up drinking too many bottles of soju. One of their maknaes, Bambam from Thailand, had apparently unbuttoned the top buttons of his shirt and, singing wildly, started swinging around on a streetlight as if it was a pole. When the both of you arrive at the studio, your stomach hurt from all the laughing you did on your walk there.

As you approach the door, muffled sounds can be heard through the walls from the inside.

"Yah, get that away from me!" Youngjae, Jaebum notes.

"Kim Yugyeom, I swEAR to god I will kick your ass if you- " Youngjae's friend, Nayoung.

"I'm joking, noona, I'm joking!" That's Yugyeom.

"Hyung, please-!" Youngjae again.

"What happened to my hair?!" Bambam, in front of the mirror, probably.

"Really, no one cares." Jinyoung.

Plus, a loud cackle that can only belong to Jackson. That leaves Mark, though he's probably resting on the couch, so everyone's present.

As he slowly swings the door open, you clearly hear the commotion inside- though it sounds more like chaos to you.

"Sorry. They're a bit noisy." Jaebum tells you as he holds open the door so you can walk through.

"A bit?" You scoff. "I'll say."

Fully stepping into the room, your suspicions are only confirmed as you’re met with the sight of five guys and a girl causing a scene in the wide space. From where he stands, Jaebum can see Jackson chasing Youngjae with something furry in his hand, the latter not realizing that it was fake and running away screaming for his hyung to stop. Yugyeom's holding out something as equally furry, except it's directed towards the only other female in the room. The girl, Nayoung, then proceeds to take one of the few pillows on the couch, raising it above her head to protect herself from whatever Yugyeom is threatening her with, before knocking the thing out of his hands and chasing him around the room, ready to beat his ass. Bambam stands in front of the mirror in a state of distress as he runs his fingers through his now blonde hair. Jinyoung stands at his side, looking like he had better things to do, yet still taking the time to laugh at Bambam's situation. All this chaos and Mark is calmly perched on the couch, tapping away at his phone and playing a game.

At the sight of a newcomer, this all stops.

"Everyone, this is- "

"Y/N!" A loud voice that can only belong to Jackson yells. You laugh as one of your closest friends comes running and tackles you in a hug. Jaebum suddenly feels the need to unwrap Jackson's arms, but since he knows that you guys are close friends, he controls himself from following through with his tendencies.

One by one, the others unfreeze from their positions. Bambam is the first to approach, though for a completely different reason.

Sitting down in front of you, he unlatches the opening of Nora's carrier and lets her crawl onto his lap. "Hi Nora~ I missed you. It's been a while." He coos.

Jaebum sets his things down in a corner of the room and watches as Jackson introduces you to everyone. The group's practice ensues after that, and you and Nayoung sit on the couch, making sure to keep out of the boys' way.

While he dances, Jaebum steals glances of you in the mirror. His chest becomes warm and his smile only grows bigger whenever he manages to catch you enjoying the song they're dancing to- his song. Page.

By the end of it all, the nine of them gather in a circle on the floor, sharing tupperwares of Nayoung's homemade kimbap, stir-fried pork, and rice balls. Then, as if the heavy snack isn't enough to satiate their hunger, the group leaves the studio and heads for a restaurant just halfway down the block.

Jaebum ends up sitting beside you and across Jackson. The group place their orders for boxes of chicken and bottles of beer. Once the food arrives, everyone's mouth is soon preoccupied with eating.

"Hey Jaebum-hyung. Are we still up for that music video shooting next week?" Jinyoung pipes up, taking a sip of his beer. "I need to know whether or not I can visit home."

"I'm still looking for someone to help me film. A lot of the people in my class are too busy with their own projects." Jaebum answers. "If I don't find anyone by Thursday, you can tell your mom you'll be home for the three-day weekend."

"Why don't you ask Y/N to do it?" Jackson says, gesturing to you with nod of his head. "You were a videographer at one point, right? In high school?"

You narrow your eyes at him. "I don't remember telling you that, but yes, I was."

"Really? Would you be willing to help us film?" Jaebum asks, turning to his left to face you. "It's for my final project, and you'll be fully credited."

You shrug. "Sure. Just give me a time and place and I'll let you know if I'm free."

The following weekend, you help them film, and Jaebum finds that he really likes the way you do it. He also has fun editing the music video for his cinematography class, and decides that it would be a good idea to film more music and performance videos. The credits are always the same; you as the camerawoman, Nayoung as the hair stylist and makeup artist, Jaebum as the editor, director, and producer, and GOT7 as the cast. It's a fun little hobby.

Months pass and before you know it, it's the last month of your senior year. In a couple of weeks, you would be taking the last exams of your college career and a few weeks after that, you'd be graduating and leaving this place forever.

That should've been Jaebum's only worry.

But he started noticing recently that you were looking a little worse for wear. Your undereye area was looking a lot darker than normal, your skin turned a sickly pale tone, and you lost a lot of weight. He knew that you were aware of these changes as you started wearing masks more, and often hid behind baggy clothing- most of which consisted of his hoodies.

He'd tried talking to you about it, but you, like him, weren't the type to be open about your struggles and personal problems. So, he'd let you be, watching over you from afar, and taking care of you in whatever way he could. Jaebum would drive you to your part-time job if he was free, so you could rest in his car instead of tiring yourself out by taking the bus and walking. He'd show up at your apartment in the morning when he knew you would still be in there, more often than not holding a breakfast pastry and smoothie in his hands. He'd make sure you ate properly and didn't miss any meals, and even helped you study for your exams (Most of his were practical, anyway. He didn't have as much to memorize as you did.). He was the reason the amount of cup noodles you were accustomed to consuming lessened significantly.

Despite all of Jaebum's efforts, you didn't seem to improve at all.

On this particular Thursday morning, Jaebum knocks on your door holding a ham and cheese croissant in one hand and a jug of organic orange juice (courtesy of Jackson) in the other. There's a stumble from the inside of the unit, and you open the door, flustered.

Cute. Jaebum watches as you stand there in your mismatched pajamas, bare face, and messy hair that's sticking up all over the place. You cover your mouth, yawning. He frowns at the sight of your eye bags and sickly skin, but covers this up with a cheery grin. "Good morning!"

"Jaebum?" You mumble sleepily. "What time is it?"

He checks his watch. "Almost 10 in the morning. I wanted to wake you up so you'd have time to eat before your 1pm exam."

At the mention of the academic enemy, your eyes widen. "Shit. I was supposed to wake up two hours ago! I'm not done studying!"

You run back into the apartment, leaving Jaebum to let himself in and lock the door behind him. He watches as you frantically flip through your notes and continues studying your reviewer in obvious distress.

Setting the food beside her, he ruffles your hair. "Eat."

Without looking back to check if you listen, Jaebum makes his way into the kitchen and starts cooking up lunch for the two of you. He figures a healthy serving of spicy soft tofu stew would be just what you needed to get through the day.

Jaebum adds lots of meat to the pot, and even cooks rice for the both of you. While the stew is boiling, he sets the table, bringing out utensils, glasses, and a pitcher of water. By the time he finishes cooking, it's 11am, and he guesses that you have just enough time to eat, shower, and cram study some more.

He brings the steaming pot of jjigae to the dining table and literally has to peel you away from your notes. It doesn't take much to make you eat; you quickly figure out that the sooner you finish your share of the meal, the sooner Jaebum would allow you to return to your cramming. Scarfing down the food with no shame, you finish eating in less than ten minutes, while Jaebum sits beside you, leisurely consuming his portion. He eats slowly, calmly, and watches amusedly as you become frantic about studying again.

Jaebum finishes up his meal and cleans the table, even doing the dishes. When the clock strikes exactly 12:15pm, he forces you to take a shower, holding the door close from the outside. He only leaves after you stop trying to pry it open and he hears the water running.

By 12:50pm, Jaebum is walking you to your exam hall, where he stops a few feet from the door to let you go in by yourself. You stop in your tracks, turn to face Jaebum, and give him a shy smile.

"Thank you..." you start. "For doing what you did. You didn't need to, but you did. All of it."

Jaebum finds himself smiling, his chest warming up. "It's no big deal."

"No, but," you continue. "I'm really grateful. More than you could ever know. I owe you one."

"You don't owe me anything." Jaebum tells you. "Consider this as payment for all the times you filmed for us."

You start to shake your head, but Jaebum speaks up again. "Besides, as your friend, it's sort of my job to take care of you."

You chuckle and smile, staring at him with fond eyes. "Still. Thank you."

Jaebum doesn't expect what you do next. He's frozen in place as you step forward to stand on your toes and press a soft kiss to his cheek. There's no trace of shyness on your face as you step back, give him a bright smile, and turn around to enter the exam hall.

Jaebum's sure that his ears had gone red by the time he finally moves (a good five minutes later). Unable to calm his heart down, he takes deep breaths as he makes his way back to his apartment. The moment he steps in and closes the door behind him, Nora comes padding up to him with her soft paws- the exact moment he decides to let out an excited and joyful scream.

She kissed me. She actually kissed me.

The smile on Jaebum's face never leaves him for the rest of the day.

-=-=-=-

It's a couple of days later that Jaebum convinces you to finally take a break. Between your part-time job and studying for finals, you were exhausted, and it was starting to show physically.

Since he knows that you would study if he left you alone in your apartment, he manages to drag you out of yours and into his with the goal of hanging out by eating a big meal together. Jaebum had prepared multiple boxes and orders of delivery food; pizza, hamburgers, jokbal, fried chicken, bossam, you name it. He's rather proud of how he set it all up in his living room: a comfortable layout of pillows and blankets, the coffee table in front of them completely covered in the food, and his TV ready to play whatever movie Netflix could provide.

"So how do you think you did on your exams so far?" Jaebum asks as you both begin to open up the different boxes of food.

"Let's not talk about that, please. I'm going to want to study again and that completely defies the purpose of this break." You respond, helping yourself to the jokbal.

Jaebum nods. "Fair enough."

He clears his throat. "How are you, then?"

You shrug. "Fine enough. How are you?"

"Fine enough." Jaebum repeats, a small grin on his face. You mirrors his expression when you catch onto what he did.

Meeting with you was always like this. Somehow, you brought out the playful side of him and you almost always ended up giggling at nothing.

"I'm just a little tired but I'll be fine." You add, bringing a piece of meat to your lips and giving him a half-hearted smile.

Jaebum studies you as he eats, stealing glances at you every now and then. When you both decide you're done eating, Jaebum persuades you to rest on the couch while he cleans up. He walks back into the living room to find that you had started watching a movie, and sinks down onto the couch beside you. Hardly paying attention to the movie, Jaebum finds himself watching you.

He's under the impression that you’re completely immersed in the movie and didn't think you'd notice, but you pause the movie and set the remote down, turning to look at him with a questioning look on your face.

"What is it, Jaebum?" You ask.

Jaebum gives you an innocent look. "Hmm?"

"You've been staring at me since dinner. What's the matter?"

Jaebum sighs. He isn't getting out of this one. "I'm just worried, I guess."

"About what?"

"You. You suck at taking care of yourself. Every time I see you, it's like your eye bags have gotten darker, you've lost more weight, you have less energy, you're paler-"

"Okay, okay, I get it." You cut him off, chuckling. Jaebum stares at you incredulously.

"Are you laughing?" He asks. "Is this funny to you? I'm worried about your health and well-being and you have the audacity to laugh at me?"

You shake your head, smiling at him. "You're too cute, Jaebum-ah."

Jaebum stops and his body has no other reaction other than to huff and turn away.

"I'm not laughing at you. Promise. It's just cute how you're so worried." You say. "Why are you even bothered so much anyway? It's not like I'm dying."

Jaebum gives you a deadpan look. "This is what I get for being concerned? You're an ungrateful friend."

This makes you burst out into loud laughter, and it's so contagious that Jaebum can't help but join in. When the both of you calm down, you give him another smile. "You don't need to worry, Jaebum. I'm fine."

Jaebum doesn't agree. He always worries about you. But he doesn't say that and just nods.

You turn away. "Geez, you worry too much. It's not like you're my boyfriend or anything."

Jaebum freezes at that statement. For some reason, it hurt. A lot.

You’ve already resumed playing the movie, so he mumbles to himself. "What's so wrong with that?"

"Hmm? What was that?" You ask, pausing the movie again to look at him.

Jaebum turns his face to look at you. He has no doubt his emotions are displayed all over his face. His heart feels heavy- is it really so bad that he wants to be yours? You made it seem so...unappealing.

"Hey." Your voice comes out cautious, gentle. "You okay?"

Jaebum breaks his silence, raising his eyes to look at you properly. "Would it really be so bad? If I wanted to be?"

Your eyes widen. "Jaebum, I-"

"Answer me. You make it seem as if dating me is such an unappealing concept. Is it really that bad?" Jaebum's voice came out weak, insecure, and he hates it. He was never really the insecure one. Everything he did, he did it with the security of hard work and perseverance to support his confidence.

But not this. How could he ever have prepared for this?

"Of course not." You answer immediately.

"Then why say it like that?" Jaebum snaps.

Oops. Maybe that was a mistake.

You frown. "What are you getting mad at me for? I was just checking up on you, and now you're being all snappy!"

"I just-" Jaebum gives up. "Never mind."

He feels like collapsing. The conversation escalated pretty quickly from him checking up on you, and he hates feeling like he's on the edge of breaking your friendship. He hates not being able to do more. Why couldn't he just man up and tell you how he felt already? How hard could it be?

Evidently, it's extremely difficult.

"No, I will not. Talk to me. You keep avoiding the topic and it's obviously bothering you." You press. "What's the problem?"

Jaebum groans in frustration. "I said don't mind it. I'm fine."

"Do you think I'm stupid, Im Jaebum? You think I'm an idiot?"

"No."

"Then talk to me!"

"No!"

"You're being ridiculous-"

"I said I'm fine!"

"Why's it so hard for you to open up-"

"Because I like you, okay?!"

Oops. That wasn't supposed to come out.

"All I want to do is care for you and take care of you because I hate seeing you suffer. Why do you think I dragged you over here to rest? Why do you think I worked so hard to take care of you all these past weeks? Why do you try to deny everything that I do for you, saying I don't need to? Okay, maybe I don't need to do anything for you, but I want to. Why can't you let me care for you the way I want to?"

Jaebum's heart is racing. He'd never felt anything as overwhelming as this before. The pain of wanting to do so much for someone who didn't want him to- what did that tell him?

You’re frozen, quiet, so Jaebum continues. "If you want me to stop, if you really don't want me to do anything for you anymore, say it here and now. I'll stop for you. Tell me you don't like me back and I'll stop it all."

"It's not that I don't like it-" you start.

"Then what?" Jaebum cuts in, voice hard. "Why-"

"Jaebum!" You snap in a tone that had the ability to zip Jaebum's mouth shut. "Let me speak!"

Jaebum backs down immediately.

You sigh. "Look. I'm sorry I ever made you feel that way. I didn't mean to make it seem like I didn't want you to take care of me. I like it when you show that you care, I really do. It's nice to have someone looking out for you, you know?"

"Then why deny it?"

"I guess I didn't want to be a burden to anyone." You shrug.

Jaebum stares at you disbelievingly. "You'd never be a burden to me."

"And I know that now." You say. "I just- ugh, I didn't want to impose. I felt like I was just an extra load to everything else you were carrying. You already do so much, and here I am, like a newborn baby, terrible at taking care of her own body and needing one of her best friends to take care of it for her."

Jaebum's face lights up. "I'm one of your best friends?" He asks with a cheeky smile on his face.

You hit him on the arm. "Yah. Is that all you got?"

"Aish. I listened, I did!" He insists. "But am I really that important to you?"

You huff and turn away, but mumble under your breath nonetheless, "Yeah."

A wide smile breaks out on Jaebum's face and he can't help but throw his arms around you in a bear hug.

"Y-yah. Wha-what is this? Don't people usually hate it when their crushes call them a best friend? Why are you so happy?" You stutter.

Jaebum lifts his head to look at you. Your face is quickly going red and there's a nervous look in your eyes. He gives you a big smile. "You calling me one of your best friends means you consider me one of the most important people in your life. Even if you don't return my feelings, it's fine. I'll take what you're ready to give me, even if it's just a friend-zone."

And you understand. Jaebum sees it in the way your features soften and the way your body relaxes against his. Suddenly gaining a shot of courage, you lean forward a little bit, smirking lightly.

"I never said I friend-zoned you." You say lowly. You’re mere inches away from his face and Jaebum can feel your breath against his lips.

It's his turn to stiffen, his turn to grow nervous. "You just did..."

You daringly bring your hands up around his neck to bury your fingers in his hair- a sensation Jaebum realizes he'd never get tired of. You smile teasingly. "That was before."

Jaebum gulps audibly. "B-before what?"

You chuckle fondly. "Is the Im Jaebum stuttering? What a historic day."

"N-no, I'm not-"

Jaebum never finishes his sentence because his lips are suddenly trapped in a lip-lock with those of the woman in his arms.

And no, sparks don't fly. They never really do, Jaebum realizes. What happens is much better.

His heart beats faster than he ever thought was possible and his head goes fuzzy. Before this, he was frozen stiff, but the second your lips start to move together, electricity courses through his veins, his entire body awake- alive.

You take over all his senses- he feels intoxicated in the best way possible. His senses are heightened and he's suddenly aware of everything that is you. Only you.

He feels you smiling as you lean back into the couch, pulling him with you. Jaebum can't help but smile himself, as he crawls over your body on the couch, the kiss never breaking.

This. This is a billion times better than the friend-zone.

The Morning After

Prompt: #19 for @itsallabigmess – “I’m too sober for this.”

itsallabigmess said:

Hey, can i request n 19 with Jaebum?

Pairing: Im Jaebum x reader

Genre: college au / strangers to lovers

Warnings: alcohol use

Word count: 1582

He hadn’t expected to see her tonight. In fact, when Youngjae had convinced Jaebum to come to this party, the last thing he even entertained was seeing his ex here. Mina never liked parties, at least when she was dating him she refused to tag along to any of them.

“I’m not a party person, Jaebum, you know this!”

“Come on, I want to show everyone how happy we are together. I want to wear the best looking girl on my arm,” he encouraged but it was to no avail. Mina wouldn’t budge and he would dejectedly go to each and every party alone, awkwardly refuting remarks about his relationship’s status to anyone who asked.

So seeing her here tonight made Jaebum want to leave immediately. Youngjae stopped him with a whine. “You promised me, one hour.”

“Where in that promise did you say I had to be subjected to one hour within Mina’s company?”

His younger friend sighed. “You told me you were over her.”

“I am.”

“Then what’s the big deal? She’s here doing her own thing, you can do yours.”

Jaebum attempted this reasoning. Why couldn’t he get out of the studio and let loose for once? He wasn’t all about work, he could play too. But not even ten minutes into this newfound resolution, Jaebum regretted his decision to stay. Mina now knew he was there and since becoming aware of his presence, she was crooning over a couple guys who had given her enough attention to work her magic.

And work it she did. Jaebum tore his eyes away from the spectacle and looked down at the red cup in his hand. He downed it and then sighed. “I’m too sober for this.”

So in the true fashion of feeling too proud to leave, yet too uncomfortable to watch Mina’s antics sober, Jaebum drank cup after cup of alcohol until he finally smiled. He was certain he was even chuckling. And when someone sat down next to him, he didn’t feel his usual hesitance to introduce himself.

Uninhibited from all the liquid confidence now within his system, he turned to you, smiling. “Hi.”

“Oh, uh hello.”

Was it the alcohol making you look this exceptional or were you truly beautiful by nature? He blinked and even rubbed at his eyes, trying to decipher if they were playing tricks on him or not. You watched him for a moment before you looked away, fiddling with the cup in your hand. He soon wondered if you didn’t want to be here either tonight. “Are you enjoying yourself?”

“Not as much as you are,” you mused, a small smile playing on your lips as you pulled your cup up to them to take a sip of your drink. He watched you, entranced. Noticing Jaebum’s gaze, you grew awkward and blushed.

He giggled. “You’re cute.”

“And I believe you’re drunk.”

“Maybe just a little,” he confirmed and you couldn’t help but smile at his admission. “You didn’t really answer me though. Are you happy here?”

You looked at him for some time, overwhelmed by his question. Your gaze did wonders to sober him up a little, and he felt something within his stomach. Was he nervous? Jaebum hoped it wasn’t the alcohol making his insides twist like that. He waited for you to answer, your turmoil evident in your eyes.

Finally, you said one word. “No.”

“Do you want to get out of here then?” he asked, strangely feeling more in control the longer the intensity of this atmosphere weighed down on you both. Again, you thought over his words and he was surprised when you nodded firmly. Jaebum stood up and held out his hand for you. “Come on.”

You woke up the next morning in a different bed and all alone. Last night played on your mind and you groaned as you kicked at the sheets immaturely. How would you face Jaebum today?

The truth was you had known Jaebum for some time. He didn’t know you well though, he passed you in the hallways and nodded politely, but he was always too busy with something else to truly approach him. When you had seen him at the party last night, you couldn’t believe it. He hadn’t been attending any parties the music department threw since last year. So when you saw him with Youngjae, you grew nervous. It was strange, you didn’t understand the notion within your stomach and you had only come tonight to forget about losing your part-time job. Not because of Im Jaebum.

You didn’t want to seem like you had watched him all night but you couldn’t help but notice his despair or the way he drowned it away with all the alcohol either. It took all your courage to go lend him some company since Youngjae had disappeared with your friend Ruby half an hour beforehand. You were sick of standing all by yourself in the midst of all the party happenings.

And when he had asked you to leave with him, you had been conflicted. Did he know you had liked him from afar all this time? Or did he just want to leave with you because you were the first person to pay him attention all night? You had accepted all the same, mindlessly wandering around outside with him until the cool air nipped at your skin and Jaebum had instinctively wrapped an arm around you to keep you warm.

All coherencies had left you then and you somehow stumbled into his apartment, fervently kissing one another and shedding clothes along the way.

“I can’t do this,” he murmured suddenly, yanking his lips away from yours. He was torn by this sudden declaration but he put distance between you both anyway. You didn’t answer and he groaned loudly. “God, you’re just so beautiful it would be a crime if we went any further.”

“W-what?”

“I mean, I’m not sober and someone like you I want to treasure in all the right ways,” he admitted, scratching at the top of his head.

You were flattered despite your lust being sizzled out by his confession. Standing there awkwardly, you then reached down to find your blouse. “I’ll leave.”

“You don’t have to,” he added too quickly and you glanced back at Jaebum, embarrassment flooding his face as he yearned to keep you here.

To keep you as his.

“I have a spare room, you could stay over?” It was more of a question than an offer. It was up to you to make the next move and as he waited with bated breath, you wondered what the implications of staying over would bring in the morning. Jaebum then sighed. “I’ve messed things up, haven’t I?”

“No!” you cried and then softened your gaze. “I’ll stay.”

And that’s how you woke up in Jaebum’s spare room.

You wondered what your best plan of action would be. Sneak out before he realises he invited someone home he barely knew the name of? Wait in the room until he awkwardly invited you out? Something in between?

You had to use the bathroom and soon it became such a pressing need that it made the decision for you. Exiting the room quietly, you looked around the layout of the apartment for the most obvious door. Choosing the right one, you did your business and then opened the door again, a squeak leaving you as a dishevelled and shirtless Jaebum stood before you.

Oh, God. He had forgotten you had stayed over, right? There was no way he would have walked out shirtless full knowing you were still here. Unless he wanted you to see what you had felt within the dim lighting of his apartment last night. Your cheeks flooded with colour and you tried to hide them behind your hands.

Jaebum stared at you for a moment and then gestured for you to move. “I need to use the bathroom.”

You waited out in the living room anxiously, not knowing whether you should just leave or not. When Jaebum reappeared, he had a tee on and glanced in your direction. “Are you hungry?”

“I uh, don’t want to intrude.”

“I remember,” he said softly, facing the refrigerator and not you. All the same, you could tell he was sincere. “I remember you choosing to stay too.”

“Well, I mean, I uh-”

“Do you regret anything that happened last night?” he continued, now facing you. After looking at his earnest expression, you shook your head. Jaebum smiled. “Neither.”

“Really? I mean, you don’t really know me.”

“I know your name, Y/N. I know you’re majoring in music because I’ve seen you in one of my classes too. And your kisses last night made me feel like I had been missing out on something incredible all this time. Anything else I don’t know, I can start to learn, right?”

You edged towards the counter he was now piling breakfast ingredients out onto and drew a pattern on the marble nervously. “Are you asking me to date you?”

“You wouldn’t have stayed in my spare room last night if you didn’t want that, Y/N. If you were looking just to hook up, you would have left or tried to get into my bed. You didn’t.”

“I didn’t,” you agreed with a smile and Jaebum grinned as he opened up a package of bacon.

He looked up you, an eyebrow raised. “So, are you staying for breakfast?”

“I’d love to.”

so WE’RE GONNA SPICE HIS AU UP A BIT totally not because I’m already sick of the same reader inserts, just enjoy this as a story and don’t complain pls

in this au you’re an astrophysics and computer programming major, minoring in bioengineering

in other words, you’re smart af

like you’re one of those child prodigy kids

Graduated high school early and took a bunch of AP's and CLEP tests so you’re way ahead and somewhere in between a junior and a senior but since you’re so young, you just say you’re a junior

you literally have the IQ of a genius and a bunch of Ivy league schools got in a fight over you but you were like nah nah i want something fUn so you came to SEOUL WOO HOO

you get A's in everything without even trying but that's OK because it leaves more room for you to do more SCIENCE

currently in a polyamorous relationship between you, Math, and Science

you’re really fascinated by the complexity of the universe but at the same time really into physics and math so when you found out that astrophysics existed when you were like 12, you knew that was it for you

you barely have time to eat, much less be fashionable, so you wear pretty nothing but jeans, huge hoodies, Converse, and a super hero t-shirt underneath (same but just because i’m too broke to dress nice)

with good brains comes bad everything else and you’re a hot fucking mess

clumsy, notes scattered all over the place, writing astrophysics shit in the margins of all your papers and doodling constellations on them while the professor lectures, it’s bad

you’re actually kind of extroverted and hyper but you just focus all that energy into astrophysics so everyone thinks you’re a hermit

you’re not obsessed with video games and comic books specifically, you’re just obsessed with space

like Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Ender's Game, Prey, Alien, Dead Space, and even Halo, you love em all, cause fuCkinGH spACE MAN same i’m a space gay

you aLwAyS pLaYS THE FUCKIN SPACE OVERTURE ON YOUR PHONE AND WALK IN SLOW MO INTO YOUR APARTMENT AND YOUR ROOMMATE IS LIKE I HAD TO WATCH THAT WITH MY OWN TWO EYES

always writing reminders on yourself but they only help 60% of the time because you’re a hot mess

you can play the harp and the sitar?? the most random ass instruments, you literally have your harp in your bedroom and your sitar in your lab and like they were gifts from one of your cousins and you’re really protective over them

whenever you have a mental block you sit cross-legged and start playing your harp/sitar and chanting OM or the lyrics to We Will Rock You and your roommates are like omg they really are a mad scientist

you don't mind relationships but like no one wants to be with you cause they think you’re kind of fucking insane so you try not to think about it and just blow stuff up in the chem lab

like you’re really excited, you’ll gladly talk to people and you’re really bubbly and happy and friendly but all you talk about is astrophysics??? and you’re not on like level one, no you started reading college level astrophysics books when you were 14, you’re like wayyyy past PhD level so it's like you’re speaking another language

and no one wants to hang out with you like they think it's cute how passionate you are and how fucking just warm and open you are but still no one wants to be around you cause you’re like some sort of mad scientist and they're not interested in what you’re talking about

but you keep a smile on your face and keep to your astrophysics even though you start to think something's wrong with you and start getting kinda sad

aw bby :’(

and tHEN THEY WERE ROOMMATES that's when Jaebum came along

Jaebum is majoring in Ancient Studies and minoring in Greek and he’s Captain of the Football Team

pretty much every male-attracted person likes him but ain't no one going near that boy cause he is T E R R I F Y I N G

wears all black and never says anything and then when you talk to him he just has this resting bitch face on with no expression and everyone's like I’ll I’ljust go now and he just continues reading

he’s always reading with his earbuds in, you bother him it's your funeral

and it's weird cause like he has friends a precious few and ppl know he's not cold with them so why’s he ALWAYS COLD AND APATHETIC TO EVERYONE ELSE LIKE YOU GOOD MATE???

knows he's terrifying and uses it to his advantage

has no problem glaring down people who reach for the same thing at the supermarket or try cutting in front of him at starbuck’s and they near shit themselves

does not give two shits about all the people staring at him all the time as long as they don't talk to him or interrupt his reading

stays at home unless he's at class, practice, or a game

on the Dean’s List, and a massive teacher’s pet

but still, people just like to admire him for his looks and gush about how mysterious he is and that really irks him cause no one wants to actually spend the time to get to know him he’s not even that mysterious, he’s actually a bit of a crackhead so he's like i don't need y'all i have the Gupta Dynasty to keep me company

youngjae and yugyeom rolling their eyes, like HeRe HyUnG GOES AGAIN

knows more about ancient worlds than the current world?? like sometimes mark catches him staring at technology like it's an alien concept and he's like dude you've had a cell phone since you were like 12, when was the last time you had a break from reading that, chill out for a second and come back to modern times

and jb just scoffs like i don't need your modern times and buries his head in the book again but he just wants someone who's able to talk about the present AND the past with him without ignoring one cause he thinks both are really important

anyways one day you were late to an 8am class and you were rushing and dropped some papers and Jaebum came across it and he was like what in ThE HELL IS THIS cause first of all it was almost completely illegible and then when he did manage to read it, he couldn't understand it cause it was real complex math and science shit and he looked at the name and he knew who you were cause you’re the campus genius and the campus crazy

so he hunts you down until he comes across your lab later on in the day and you’re frantically looking through your BILLIONS OF PILES of looseleaf paper and jb's just thinking about how much of a fit jinyoung would have if he saw this tomfoolery

and he handed you your stuff and you were so grateful and friendly and you reminded him of a crazier version of youngjae

he couldn't help but be curious when he saw the really complicated math and science going on on your paper and he was like what's that, how does it work, what's the history

for a full fifteen seconds, you looked at him like he was god incarnate and you like i'M gLaD yOu AsKeD

and you were talking really fast but the way your eyes lit up when you talked about astrophysics and the way the sun from the window illuminated your features jfc

jb didn't believe in love in first sight he swore he didn't

unless it was you

like even if you weren’t conventionally pretty and most people wouldn't even notice you, bummie didn’t care, it was like you were the goddamn sun or something

he stops you in the middle of explaining and he's like look you're going a bit too fast, so could you repeat what you said but just a lil bit . . . slower

and for a long moment, you were stunned jungshook because like this boi . . . this devastatingly handsome boy who blows everyone off and makes them wet their pants in fear wants to hear me rant to him about astrophysics

and he actually wants you to slow it down so he can understand instead of just pretending to listen

and like you may be a genius but JB just broke your brain for a second

but then you jump back into it like yeah sure

and jae honestly finds you fucking adorable like how excited you get about astrophysics and he actually finds himself interested in it and then he starts talking about ancient cultures and greek and you already kinda know everything he's talking about and enjoy the conversation and he's all heart eyes

gets protective over you after like 2 days???

you don't care, you’re just happy there's someone who thinks you’re interesting so you don't even notice him glaring at anyone who talks to you and always hanging around you to scare other guys off

tbh bummie doesn't really comprehend why people don't like being around you cause like??? you’re so fucking pretty and cute?? you took all his uwus reader

only takes like 10 days before JB finds out you’re really affectionate and you’re hugging and cuddling all the time but he actually???likes it

and soon he's the one begging you for cuddles and you’re like ( ^_^) ofc babe lemme just finish doing these calculations right quick and JB's like asdfghjkl did they just call me what i think they just called me

but like you guys are always hanging at your lab and since JB doesn't really talk except with you and his friends and you never talk about anything but astrophysics on the off chance she gets back to the dorm in time enough to talk at all no one knows that you guys are even hanging out

it's not long after that jae asks you out and he takes you to an amusement park and you have a FiElD dAy because sooooooo much math? and pretty colors? and cotton candy? and he's made you the happiest person ever and in that moment when he sees your face he just can't help himself like pls be my s/o and you’re like ASDFGHJKL ARE YOU PLAYING WITH ME RIGHT NOW JFC OFC

and he just drops a bomb on his friends like they're all going out to dinner and he brings you and he's got his arm around your waist and he's just like guys meet my s/o and everyone's choking like S/O We ThOuGhT YoU wErE aRo oR sMtHiNG and for a minute they're so confused because no one even knew jaebum was talking to someone much less the mad scientist person when did this happen

and like they can see all throughout dinner that you’re really fucking strange but it's kind of cute and it makes bummie happy so Welcome to the Family, we have cookies

lol friends? nope, say goodbye to those, everyone is so terrified of bummie and his resting bitch face and them muscles that they refuse to come near you cause you’ve basically got Jaebum stamped on your forehead but that's ok because somehow you became really good friends with his friends and like you have this group chat that jae's not in specifically so they can share embarrassing things for you to tease him about later

but bummie highkey encourages it because if he pretends to get mad, you’ll play your harp for him and he loves that shit

jaebum will knock the living daylights out of anyone who mistreats you or makes you feel bad

like one time yall were walking back after a date and this dude grabbed your ass and was about to open his mouth to say some vulgar shit but he didn’t even get the chance before jaebum LEAPED ON HIM LIKE A FUCKING INSECT AND MOWED HIS ASS D O W N

jae had like two scratches on him meanwhile the dude on the floor probably needed a goddamn ambulance and he just took your hand and continued walking like anyways, like i was saying, no one can give me a valid reason why I shouldn’t get a cat

yall will 10/10 adopt a cat together

well it was supposed to be one but yall were weak bitches, so it turned into 3 same

at first yall rotated the cats between y’all’s apartments but then you were both like let’s just fucking move in together omfg

bam bam constantly breaks into your apartment to play with your cats

you come and cheer jae on at his football games

the first time everyone was SHOOK

for fuck’s sake, you just learned what a touchdown was when you infiltrated a superbowl party for the food sAME, why tf were you even here

but then they saw jae beam at you and they were like omfg, they’re these people

when they win, he runs up and scoops you into his arms and spins you around, pressing a bunch of kisses all over your face and calling ou his good luck charm and you’re screaming at him for hugging you while he’s sweaty and gross even though you’re laughing and kissing him back

when he loses, you and him go to McDonalds after he showers and you just sit at a table eating while he nuzzles his head in your neck and sulks

reader, i highkey advise you to get a couple tats or a body piercing and not tell him

just have your hoodie off one day so he happens to see the tat/piercing and you’ll see his eyes darken and he’s trying to keep calm like

“i didn’t know you had tattoos/piercings”

and he’s looking down at you so intensely he’s almost glaring

“i do, wanna try and find them all?”

you did it

you activated beast mode

whenever jae sees you upset or sad, he’ll just engulf you with his whole body and you can smell his aftershave and feel his warmth while he puts on calming music and tells you greek myths in that smooth, soothing voice

and when you have your head on his chest, half asleep, he’ll just kind of stop for a second because holy fuuck, you’re so gorgeous and you’re his? how did he land you?? he’s the luckiest guy in the world?

and when you look up, wondering why he stopped talking, you see him looking at you with just this really soft, mushy look of complete adoration and before you can even say anything, he’s like i fucking love you

I WAS GONNA WRITE MORE, BUT I GOTTA END IT NOW, I’M FUCKING SOFT HNNNGGH

Gaia, the dwarf planet
