You were breathless by the time you got to the hospital, slightly feeling guilty that you couldn’t make it on time to see your boyfriend head in for his colonoscopy. 
Both of you were practically adults now, only a year left before you two graduate from college, and yet he could still act like such a child. Especially when he found out that you were going to be late for his appointment.
But then he stopped whining when he found out that you were going to be late only because you decided to attend the class – the one he was missing due to his appointment – and take notes for him so that he didn’t miss anything. 
“Hi,” you greeted the receptionist. “I’m the guardian for Lee Donghyuck? He had a colonoscopy at 3pm.” 
Her eyes lit up in what seemed to be amusement and motioned the door behind you. “Ah, so you’re the girlfriend he was telling everyone about. He should be coming out soon. Get ready.” 
Your brows furrowed in confusion, wondering what exactly should you be getting ready for. 
The second she finished her sentence, you saw Haechan come out with the hospital staff pushing him to his room. 
“Donghyuck!” you exclaimed happily. 
Your boyfriend seemed drowsy, probably the lingering after-effects of the anaesthesia. You had to hold your laughter back from how goofy he looked, especially combined with the hospital gown and the messy hair. 
“Who are you?” he asked as he smacked his lips a few times. 
You frowned at his question. “Are you really asking me who I am?” 
“Mhm, yeah.” He hummed and then giggled. “You’re pretty.” 
Oh, you wished you could film this moment and show it to the rest of the boys. Renjun would  totally make fun of him for this. But you also wanted to keep this moment to yourself. Was that selfish of you? 
“Can I have your number?” 
“You already have my number,” you answered, slightly annoyed, but also amused. 
“Stop lying. I don’t have your number.” 
“Donghyuck, I’m your girlfriend. I’m pretty sure that my number is on your phone somewhere.” 
“You’re my girlfriend?” Donghyuck gasped, almost exaggeratedly. “Wait, where’s my phone. I need to make sure that it’s true.” 
“How about I’ll give your phone back when you’re feeling a bit better, yeah?” 
“I’m feeling awesome, though?” 
“I bet you do.” You snorted and patted him on his head. “Stay here while I get your discharge papers, alright?” 
“Can’t you bring me with you?” 
You looked him up-and-down with a side-eye. “In your current state? Yeah, no. Why do you want to stick to me so much? Just be a good boy and stay in your bed until the anaesthesia wears off.” 
Donghyuck pouts, his bottom lip jutting out in disappointment. “Is it so wrong of me to want to be next to my girlfriend? I guess I’m a sugar because I stick to you like glue-cose.” 
You made a face of disgust and apprehension. “Babe, that was so bad. It wasn’t even funny.” 
But that didn’t stop him from dropping another line on you. “I wish I were adenine so that I could be paired up with YOU. Get it? Like adenine is paired with uracil, and uracil’s symbol is the letter ‘U?’” 
You sighed through your nose. 
“Oh, oh, I got a better one! If I were an enzyme, I would be a helicase so I can unzip your gene,” he said and looked super proud. 
Was this how he was able to seduce you and ask you out? 
“Are you really flirting with me, right now? In this state?” you asked him while pinching his cheeks. 
While you were slightly unimpressed by his choice of pick-up lines, you still somehow found him pretty endearing. 
“I’m always flirting with you. Keep up.” 
You shook your head and left to grab his discharge papers. 
You regretted just the slightest for not filming him. 
But Renjun’s cry of anguish when he found out that you didn’t film Donghyuck at a moment of weakness completely made up for it.

It was getting hard for you to breathe amidst this suffocating engagement party. 
You were unsure if it was because of the curious, judging eyes that were on you since the beginning of the evening, or if it was because you knew you were getting engaged to a man who wanted nothing to do with you.  
You subtly glanced up at the man standing next to you, who was greeting people with a bright smile as if he wasn’t about to get married to someone he hated. 
“Jaehyun!” 
A group of men who seemed to be of similar age to your fiancé approached you two, jolly smiles evident on their faces. It was as though they were genuinely happy for their friend about his recent engagement. 
“Hey,” your fiancé said with an expression of relief. “Thanks for coming.” 
You were quickly introduced to his group of friends, some of which you already knew or heard of from others. Because whether you liked it or not, you and Jaehyun came from a similar circle of friends thanks to being born in the same world. 
“Congratulations on your engagement,” Doyoung said to you.
He and Yuta were friends you had in common with Jaehyun, meaning those two were also the only ones who knew about your obvious crush on your fiancé. 
You thought it was stupid, not to mention cliché, of you to fall for the person you were engaged to. What made things worse was that you knew of Jaehyun’s dislike for you and you had an inkling behind his dislike. 
“Thanks,” you muttered through your teeth, ignoring both how smug your two friends were and how hot your cheeks felt. 
Your family knew of your small crush on Jaehyun. From the moment you first laid eyes on him at your first meeting, your parents just knew that you fell for the man. 
But that was all it was—just a small crush that would come and go the second the party was over. However, they thought they were doing you a favour by arranging the marriage with his parents. What they didn’t know was the fact that Jaehyun was already taken at that time. 
You didn’t know how serious Jaehyun and his girlfriend were. But you knew they were serious enough that Jaehyun would always look at you with contempt whenever you two locked eyes. However, you refused to take the blame for the fall of their relationship. Jaehyun was an adult who could have refused the arranged marriage if he wanted. 
But he didn’t. 
So, what exactly was he thinking? 
“I’m going out for some fresh air,” you mumbled to Doyoung, expecting him to relay the news to Jaehyun. 
On your way out, you managed to pass by the bar and grabbed a whole bottle of red wine from the bartender (and then proceeded to give the bartender a very generous tip).
You expected to have some time to yourself, to take a breather from all the hecticness that came with both the party that was going on inside as well as the planning behind a marriage that your partner didn’t even want to be part of. 
The last thing you expected was for Jaehyun to join you. 
You sighed tiredly to yourself and took a swig from the bottle of wine.
“What do you want, Jung?” You paused and pointed an accusating finger at him. “I don’t have the energy to deal with your negativity. But, feel free to torment me after our marriage is officialized. You’ll have the rest of your life to do it.”
He remained silent and you couldn’t quite distinguish his expression. 
You scoffed, the alcohol slowly getting to you. “How dare you blame me for this bullshit of a situation we’re in. You could have said no to this arranged marriage. You could have just refused, and then both of us wouldn’t be stuck in this loveless marriage and–”
You exhaled sharply.
“I didn’t expect to fall for you. I never planned on falling for you.” 
“You could have done the same,” Jaehyun said after a long pregnant silence. “You could have said no, too.” 
You were not one to cry easily. But the way that he so easily dismissed your feelings, purposely ignoring your drunken confession made you feel like such utter crap that you hated yourself for ever thinking that perhaps with time, Jaehyun’s feelings might change. 
“You are the rudest man I’ve ever met in my life,” you straight up told him, missing the small flash of insecurity in his eyes. 
If he weren’t so mean and rude to you, you would have suggested to divorce him a year later. If he weren’t such an ass to you, you would have done everything in your power to reverse this situation. But it was only too bad that Jaehyun decided to remain so negative and to put the blame on you. 
It was only too bad that you were such a petty person too. 
“And just for the torture you’ve put me for the past few months,” you said with a small sneer as you left him alone outside. 
“I’ll make sure that you will suffer for the rest of your life.”

It was almost like an unspoken rule.
Neither you nor Jaehyun hid your relationship from your peers, but neither did you really talk about it with your respective circle of friends.
Basically, your relationship was never a topic of discussion amongst your university peers. Or at least, not within Jaehyun’s presence. You were unsure if it was due to your popularity – or your lack thereof – that people seemed to act as if your presence was nonexistent and would have no shame in gossiping about you and your relationship blatantly in front of you.
You supposed that was something that came with dating Jaehyun. Not only was he a brother of one of the most popular fraternity houses, his social skills, charisma, and good looks easily made him one of the most popular guys on campus.
You, on the other hand, were the complete opposite of your boyfriend.
You wouldn’t call yourself unattractive – beauty was subjective, in your opinion – but you just didn’t thrive for the same things as Jaehyun. You didn’t mind just passing your four years of university as the random studious girl in people’s classes. Only you were perhaps the smartest person in your grade, if not, your whole department, and that was how you ended up becoming Jaehyun’s tutor, and eventually his girlfriend.
He was a popular guy – that much, anyone could tell – but his popularity never really hit you until you were in his setting, in his frat house, attending his frat house party, and you noticed just how many people would steal him away because they hadn’t seen him in so long. It was a side of him that you’d never really got to know.
(You also didn’t miss the meaning behind their glances whenever they mentioned to Jaehyun that they hadn’t seen him around in a while. They probably blamed you for Jaehyun’s lack of attendance.)
You remained in Jaehyun’s room and decided to go over your class notes of the week. While there was a party ongoing outside of his room, the music wasn’t deafening. With your focus, it was easy for you to block out any noises, which was why you didn’t notice Jaehyun entering his own room.
“Oh!” you exclaimed when you felt his lips press against the back of your neck. You quickly turned away from his desk and saw Jaehyun smiling down at you, and you smiled back. “Hi, there.”
“Hello,” he mumbled with a drunken, kind of dopey, smile.
You laughed at your boyfriend and helped him to his bed. “Are you drunk?”
“Nooooo,” he replied with a pout. When you finally got him in his bed, Jaehyun opened his arms to you and beckoned you over. “Come cuddle with me.”
You were actually planning to finish studying before joining him in his bed. You usually were pretty strict with yourself when it came to your studies, but you could feel your determination waver as Jaehyun continued to plead with you with his puppy eyes and dimpled cheeks. With a small sigh, you went into Jaehyun’s arms.
Jaehyun instantly tightened his arms around you and tucked you under his chin. He gave you a small kiss on the top of your head before continuing to hold you tight. You chuckled at how childish he was acting.
“Babe, I’m not going anywhere,” you told him. “Why are you holding me so tight?”
He moaned a little as the alcohol probably caught up to him and he was now sleepy. “I dunno,” he said as his words slurred a little, “it just feels like, if I don’t hold you tight, then you’re going to slip away from me or something.”
Maybe everyone out there knew Jaehyun, but you knew a side of Jaehyun that no one else seemed to know. You hoped that it remained that way.
“...you,” he mumbled with his eyes closed. But then his brows furrowed and he opened one of his eyes before asking you, “Why are you not saying it back?”
You quickly blinked. “Sorry, Jae, I got lost in my thoughts. What did you just say?”
He shook his head lazily. “S’okay, it’s one of the things I love about you… the way you kind of drift off… with that dreamy look… and your eyes… they look as if… they got the whole galaxy in them… not just stars.”
You looked up at him with a curious look. “Since when were you such a poet?”
“Mhm, anyway… I said I love you.”
Oh.
“And I’m asking if you love me too.”
Without even hearing your answer, Jaehyun fell asleep, his light snores filling the room. You quickly refrained yourself from laughing too hard, afraid that you might wake him up from his slumber.
You pushed yourself on your elbows and then kissed him on his lips that were still pouty from earlier. Jaehyun looked so lovely, almost cherubic. And despite all your differences and people’s irrelevant opinions on your relationship, one thing was clear for sure.
“Of course I love you too, Jung Jaehyun.”

congrats on your first year anniversary! can i have a jaehyun x reader fic, unrequited love to lovers au (both as working adults) with the prompt “I’m not jealous.”? Thank you ❤️
[a/n]: thank you so much and apologies for taking so long with your request! i had a small writer's block for this request and wondered just how exactly should i write this. decided to go with friends-to-lovers instead of unrequited love-to-lovers because it was easier for me to write that. i think i took a different path from what people would usually imagine with the prompts you picked, so i hope all my readers will enjoy this very subtle romance drabble!

WARNING. mentions of alcoholic drinks
Tumblr media
You and Jaehyun were assigned to cook for a small party. Doyoung got promoted recently and his new position required him to go to your company’s Singapore office for a period of six months. The only logical thing for you and your friends was, of course, to throw him a party at your place.
A sigh came out of you as you perused your fridge that was luckily stocked with a lot of meat, knowing the boys will surely eat a lot of them. Jaehyun raised an inquisitive brow at you and chuckled.
“Is deciding how much meat we need for tonight something that warrants that big of a sigh?” he asked you kindly.
You shook your head. “No, actually, I was just thinking about how you, Doyoung, and I joined the company at the same time, and look at him now, promoted and shipped off to the Singapore office.”
“Don’t tell me you’re going to miss him,” Jaehyun said with a snort, jokingly.
“Har, har,” you replied. “He’ll be back in six months. What is there to miss?”
“Then why the sigh?”
You gave Jaehyun a small look and closed your fridge. You leaned your whole body against it and then crossed your arms. “Promise you won’t make fun of me?”
He smiled mischievously. “Depends.”
You rolled your eyes and motioned him to follow you to the living room, where you had a small glass cabinet displaying some of your favourite alcoholic beverages: the Hennessy XO cognac your parents had gifted you when you got your position at the company, the Disaronno Originale amaretto you bought for yourself, your favourite moscato white wine from Jacob’s Creek and–
“High West’s Midwinter’s Night Dram whiskey,” Jaehyun said in admiration when you pulled out the bottle. You handed it to him and he turned the bottle around while whistling lowly. “You sure know your alcohol. Doesn’t a bottle cost about $300? How did you get your hands on this?”
Your eyes bulged out slightly at the price tag. “Wait, is it actually $300?”
“I mean, it’s probably one of the least expensive ones if we’re talking about the nice and expensive whiskeys, but definitely one of the best ones out there, in my opinion,” Jaehyun rambled and furrowed his brows. “Don’t tell me you bought this without knowing its worth.”
You shrugged one of your shoulders. “Bought it? No. But I certainly didn’t know its worth when it was gifted to me.”
Jaehyun suddenly went silent, his eyes still on the bottle of whiskey. “Who gave it to you?”
He looked so crestfallen. You resisted the urge to laugh at his demeanour. He looked kind of adorable with his pouty lips, so adorable that you felt like teasing him. But you knew that Jaehyun wouldn’t take your teasing too well as he gets embarrassed very easily.
“An old uni professor gifted it to me, actually,” you revealed with a reminiscing smile, “when I told him I got my first permanent job. Who would have thought that six years later, I would still be working there?”
He looked at the bottle again and noticed something odd. “Six years and you never opened it once?”
“Nope,” you answered, popping the ‘p’. “This is the part where you promised you won’t make fun of me.”
You looked at him, making sure he wouldn’t, and only continued when you got his confirmation, “I told myself I was only going to open this bottle when there’s something to celebrate, and perhaps with a special someone if that ever happens.”
“A special someone?!” Jaehyun’s voice squeaked and you snorted. He quickly cleared his throat and repeated with a more serious tone, “I mean, a special someone?”
“Yes, a special someone,” you replied with a small laugh, emphasizing the word to make fun of him. “Maybe I should open it with Doyoung since he got a promotion.”
Jaehyun scoffed loudly. “Doyoung? Please, why would you open such a precious bottle with Doyoung out of all the people?”
You tilted your head in amusement. “Are we feeling jealous, Mr. Jeong?”
“Jealous? Me? Of Doyoung?” Jaehyun rolled his eyes. “I’m not jealous.”
You put the bottle of whiskey back into the glass display cabinet before you two went back to the kitchen to finish cooking. Jaehyun still seemed dispirited from your small conversation about your special bottle of whiskey, for some reason, and he didn’t utter a single word while he was cutting up the vegetables.
Jaehyun was the first person you befriended when you joined the company. He was popular with everyone thanks to his kind and caring nature, it was a wonder how he was still single. At first, you only thought of him as a friend, but your feelings slowly started to develop over the years and eventually, you admitted to yourself that you liked him in a romantic way.
You shamelessly used your friendship to your advantage and flirted with him whenever you could, much to Doyoung’s chagrin who had to witness your conversations every day. Not to mention, it didn’t help that Jaehyun would also shamelessly flirt back with you too.
However, you two never crossed that line.
Both of you had some issues to work with. Jaehyun had his heart broken by his ex and you had commitment issues. It was hard for the two of you to start a new relationship, but there was no denying that you two had feelings for each other.
Slowly but surely, you two took steps to cross that line together.
You leaned on the counter next to Jaehyun. When he finally noticed that you were not doing anything but staring at him, he grew shy. “W-why are you staring at me? Am I that good-looking?”
“Yeah,” you admitted without hesitation. “You’re very pretty to look at.”
“You think I’m pretty?” You nodded and his eyes crinkled. “Well, I think you’re pretty too.”
You hummed in response and rested your chin on your palm. “Say, Jaehyun.”
“Yeah?”
“Let’s open that bottle of whiskey together one day.”
Jaehyun’s hands suddenly stopped and his eyes slightly widened at your declaration. When he saw how serious you were, he dropped the cutting knife and his hand then went to your cheek, caressing it in soft circles.
“Yes, let’s do that.”

WARNINGS. swearing, 18+ (lame) pickup lines, alcohol consumption
Tumblr media
Corporate parties were a bore.
You never liked the so-called “corporate culture” where, if your superior were to ask you to do something, you had to do it. The parties were stupid, kind of degrading, and often resulted you in being stupidly drunk by the end of the evening.
“I’m heading to the loo,” you whispered to your best friend and co-worker, Seulgi, who nodded and took over your duties as your manager’s drinking buddy for the night.
After refreshing yourself in the washroom, you decided to take a seat on one of the sofas that lined the walls of the hallway. Thankfully, the washrooms were a bit far from the venue where your company’s party was taking place.
The second you sat down, the alcohol you had been drinking since early evening finally hit you.
“Fuck,” you mumbled under your breath, not liking how your head was starting to spin.
Before you could have gotten up and perhaps called it for the night, a water bottle appeared in front of you, startling you. You raised your head, wondering just who had the same idea as you to hide from the party, and you were surprised to see that it was your rival, Jaehyun.
“Do you not need it?”
You wordlessly took it and drank the cool water before sighing at how refreshing it was. While the water did help you, you were still very much drunk.
“Thanks,” you said, avoiding Jaehyun’s stare as he took the seat next to you.
You squirmed away from him, hoping that Jaehyun wouldn’t realize how uncomfortable you were around him (and the fact that you were drunk was not good either).
You and Jaehyun belonged to the same creative department of your advertising agency. You entered as a planner and were responsible for creating commercials, whereas Jaehyun was originally in the accounting department before being transferred to your department and ended up being a copywriter – a very good copywriter.
It turned out that you and Jaehyun worked super well with each other and ended up being put in projects together. However, what your manager didn’t know was that despite the end result of a successful commercial, the process was a pain in your ass.
Correction: Jaehyun was the pain in your ass.
Ever since you two were introduced to each other, he always had a comment to make and those comments often resulted in your female co-workers to fall head over heels for him. It was to the point where you asked Seulgi if he was that attractive and if his pick-up lines actually worked, and Seulgi’s silence was all you needed.
If someone were to ask you if you liked Jaehyun or not, you would straight up answer that you didn’t like him. But as people say, there was a fine line between love and hate (and you unfortunately blurred that line too much).
“Do you like blow jobs or sex on the beach?” Jaehyun asked you out of the blue.
That definitely sobered you up.
“Excuse me?” you replied indignantly.
Jaehyun had the audacity to smirk at you, and then he raised his own glass. “I’m talking about cocktails, of course.”
You scoffed in amusement. “Are- are you flirting with me, right now? In this situation?”
He comfortably leaned back against the sofa. “You only noticed just now? If you haven’t realized, I’m always flirting with you.”
“No…” you said in uncertainty. “I haven’t realized.”
“Well, keep up,” he answered cheekily before looking around and then at his watch before getting up from the sofa. He then cocked his head at you as he asked, “Say, do you need a ride?”
Looking at the time, you knew that it was too late for the last metro and taxis would be too expensive or almost impossible to catch. Though, you were skeptical of Jaehyun’s offer too.
“You used that line a lot?” you asked with a raised brow.
“Not really, you’re the first one I used that on, actually,” he replied honestly. “So? Need a ride or not?”
You sighed and got up from the sofa. “Lead the way.”
“Oh, and also.”
“Mhm?”
“When I drop you off and text you goodnight later, what phone number should I use?”

WARNINGS. swearing and mentions of drinking
Tumblr media
To most college single students, summer vacation meant a lot of things.
Trips to the beach, sunbathing, tanning, ice cream, iced coffee, bon fires, drunk nights…
Summer flings.
This year, after a messy break-up with your ex-boyfriend, your best friends decided that a trip to the beach was exactly what you needed.
Only, they hadn’t mentioned it to you.
Instead, amidst your confusion , you distinctly remember Krystal pulling you out of your bed and forcing you to wash up, Jennie in the background making breakfast for all of you (while you sincerely hoped that she wasn’t making a mess out of your kitchen), and Yuqi and Seulgi packing your clothes and essentials for the trip.
Not even an hour later, you five squeezed into Krystal’s sleek black Audi e-tron GT and they whisked you away for a fun trip. It was very Sex and the City-esque of them, and you were most certain that it was Jennie’s idea.
And that was how you ended up lying down on a beach towel with your four best friends, in a bikini and black Gentle Monster sunglasses on, and a mango margarita in your hand.
It was the third day of your trip — and you had no idea how long the girls planned this trip for — and you were still, and you quote from Yuqi, “as lifeless as ever”, and un-quote.
“Ma’am,” Krystal said to you. “We’re at the beach for the first time in so long, and you haven’t caught a single wave yet? Who are you and what have you done with my best friend?”
“Not in a mood to surf,” you muttered back as you perched your sunglasses over your head so that they could see your deadpan expression.
“More importantly, you have all this eye-candy in front of you,” Yuqi motioned the people in front of you with a dramatic hand while the other three nodded furiously, “and you’re telling me not one of them caught your interest?”
They saw a flash of interest flash through your eyes and they immediately hounded you like a pack of coyotes around raw meat. “Who is it, you bitch!”
You turned away from them. “No one.”
“Come on!” Jennie whined. “This is probably the most exciting thing that has ever happened to you in the past two years!”
You narrowed your eyes. “I started going out with my ex two years ago.”
“Exactly.”
You flipped her your middle finger.
“Okay, okay,” Seulgi said as she pushed your finger down. “Let’s stop bullying her, she already has a lot to deal with.”
“Thanks, Seul.” You hugged her. “I knew there was a reason why you’re my favourite.”
“It’s not her fault if she looks too depressed for anyone to even approach her.”
You let out an offended gasp and pushed a guffawing Seulgi away while the other girls laughed and snickered at your misery. Amidst your fun, you didn’t even notice a certain man approach your little group.
“Having fun, ladies?”
You all whipped your head towards the source of the question and a smile immediately made its way to each of your faces. More so on your friends than on yours, though.
“You know it, Jaehyun,” Krystal answered with a wink.
Jung Jaehyun was one of the eye-candies that Yuqi mentioned beforehand, something you five determined the second you set foot on the beach. You six met when you were all trying to get your surfboard down from the top of Krystal’s car without hitting an innocent passerby or the cars parked nearby. He happened to pass by and offered his help.
You then proceeded to find out that he was also from Seoul and always came down to this beach to work as a lifeguard seasonally. That fact added to his face and body and his good manners, it was a no-brainer for all of you to put him in your communal eye-candy category.
It just so happened that Jaehyun was the only person that has caught your attention.
“Hey,” he addressed you specifically, and you only hoped that your friends wouldn’t embarrass you. “Some of the other lifeguards and I are having this small bonfire party later in the evening after the beach clears out. We’re going to have some booze and maybe surf a little at night. Would you like to come?”
You blinked your eyes repeatedly. “Uhh, just me?”
It was then that Jaehyun seemed to have realized his mistake. “Oh, I mean, your friends are obviously invited,” he said with his eyes darting around like crazy, making sure that he didn’t offend the other girls, before he meekly added, “But I would love it if you came.”
“Yeah, we’re just–” Yuqi started to say and got up with the other girls. “–we’re just gonna go and uh, leave you two lovebirds alone.”
When they finally left, Jaehyun plopped down on the bath towel next to you and focused his attention on you, flustering you a little.
“So, what do you say?” he asked with a cute, dimpled smile.
You raised a skeptical brow. “Careful there, Jaehyun, or else I might think that you were flirting with me.”
Jaehyun threw his head back in laughter before slowly shaking it at you. “Oh, babe, I’m always flirting with you. Keep up.”
His confession took you by surprise. Your mouth opened and closed like a gaping fish out of the water. “Y-you are?”
Jaehyun chuckled lowly, his deep voice sending tingles down your spine, and he nodded. “Yeah. So, are you coming?”
You nodded slowly and wordlessly — as if you were going to say no to him.
“Cool,” he answered before giving you a small peck on the cheek. “See you later, then, babe.”

[a/n] HELLO LOML! thanks so much for requesting again!! and AHHHHH, exes-to-lovers is my favourite trope to write and i kind of do miss once again too haha. so here's a little something that's written in a similar style, hope you enjoy!! ♡♡
p-s: you forgot to include a prompt, so i included one of my choice! i also listened to jaehyun x d.ear try again while writing this, so maybe you could listen to that while reading this (though, the story might be too short for it ksfjskfjs)
PAIRING. jaehyun x female!reader GENRES. romance, slight angst, exes-to-lovers!au PROMPT. "well, how was i supposed to know not to open the box?!" WORDS. 876 
Tumblr media
You once thought that Jaehyun was perhaps your soulmate, the one you were going to marry eventually. But, what did they say again, about people that break up even though they were still very much in love with each other?
Oh, that’s right.
Right person, wrong time.
Weirdly enough, your break-up with Jaehyun didn’t affect your relationship as much as you thought it would. It remained relatively the same, just without the labels and PDA. Though, to your slight dismay, the skinship remained.
The way you two behaved around each other was almost as if nothing had changed. People wondered why you two even broke up in the first place. But things were just more complicated than it seemed and you didn’t have the mental capacity to tell them your whole history with Jaehyun.
Not that it was any of their business, to begin with.
There was just this pull between the two of you that you couldn’t quite dispel, no matter how hard you tried. And frankly, Jaehyun didn’t try that hard either to make the boundaries clearer.
“We should stop this,” you muttered as you looked up at the ceiling while lying down on Jaehyun’s bed.
“Stop what?” he mumbled back as he flipped through his novel at his desk, where he was sitting.
You sighed and flipped onto your stomach before giving him a look. “You know what I mean.”
“Actually, I don’t know what you mean,” he replied back stubbornly, never meeting your eyes completely.
You opened your mouth, then closed it — there was no point in arguing with him when Jaehyun was adamant in not listening to you.
He exhaled sharply and got up from his seat before heading for his bathroom. “I’m going to take a shower now. We can talk when I’m done.”
You didn’t even bother responding.
You got up from his bed the second you heard the water from his shower and perused the numerous picture frames that decorated his bookshelf. Picture frames that consisted of you and him only.
Your heart tightened at the trail of memories in front of you, bringing you back slightly in time and leaving you wishing for things to be as lighthearted and easy as before.
But that was the thing about growing up.
Some people just didn’t grow at the same pace as you did and they ended up not being at the same stage of life.
You were too focused on the picture frames that you almost tripped over a small round box that laid near the bed, just barely out of sight.
Your brows furrowed and you wondered what it was. You didn’t feel shy about opening it up either since you practically knew everything there was about Jaehyun and you knew every crook and nanny of his room. So, where did this box come from, exactly?
So, you opened it, not expecting much. It probably just contained some random music memorabilia — he loved collecting those vintage collectors objects.
But to your utmost surprise, you found…
Museum tickets from your first date.
Plane tickets from your first summer vacation together abroad.
Polaroid pictures from your first road trip.
Random notes you once had passed to each other during class.
Receipts from all the restaurants you had eaten at with each other.
“What are you doing?”
Jaehyun’s voice startled you and you whipped your head around, your eyes brimmed with tears. But his expression didn’t reveal anything.
“Wh-what is this?” you asked, your voice barely a whisper.
“You weren’t supposed to open that,” Jaehyun answered briskly, but made no move to take it away from you.
“Well, how was I supposed to know not to open the box?!” you exclaimed. “And besides, you still haven’t answered my question — what is this?”
Jaehyun looked away from you. “Just a box with stuff that reminded me of you…”
You blinked in confusion. “Yes, but I don’t understand why you still have this — we broke up a while ago.”
Jaehyun remained calm, the complete opposite of you. “Do you want the truth?”
You gave him a nod apprehensively.
“The truth is that I miss you.”
But you began to shake your head and got up from the floor before you started to pace around his room. “No, you can’t do this to me, Jae. You just can’t– You broke up with me.”
Jaehyun followed you. “I know, I know! And every day, I wake up and regret ever making that decision. Why do you think I keep ignoring you whenever you bring up the fact that we’re too close for a pair of friends? It’s because I never wanted us to be friends and–”
“And, now what? You just want us to go back to how we were?” You scoffed and rubbed your forehead. “Jae, we broke up for a reason. We can’t just go back to how things were!”
Jaehyun managed to grab your hand amidst your turmoil and brought it to his heart. You could feel his heartbeat and how it got stronger with every second.
“I know, but all I’m asking is a second chance.”
You bit your lip as you could already feel your walls crumble.
“We’ll be alright, so can we try again?”

[a/n]: SO SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG WITH THIS ANON!! and thank you so much!! i hope you enjoy reading this story<3 this scenario took a bit of a sad turn, but it's also because it will serve as a premise to one of the fics i am planning!! so, this is kind of like a teaser??? idk, but i had a lot of fun writing this.
indented and italicized words/lyrics are from nct u's without u.
PAIRING. bass guitarist!jaehyun x classical music student!female reader GENRES. angst, romance, college!au, band!au PROMPT. "i'm always flirting with you. keep up." WORDS. 1057 
Tumblr media
The air smelled of sweaty bodies and alcohol. Students from the nearby university filled the venue as they were all impatiently waiting for their favourite band to finally come on stage. You stayed away from the stage and the blinding lights, preferring to keep yourself near the bar and your friends.
God knows how much alcohol you need.
You told yourself this was the last time you were going to cave in to Jaehyun’s demands. But then again, that was what you told yourself last time.
And the other times before that.
The relationship between you and the band, NCT’s, bass guitarist, Jeong Jaehyun, was like the sea.
When turbulent, the last thing you wanted to see was your boyfriend. Oftentimes, the fights and arguments between you two made you feel like you were lost at sea, unable to see the light and the end of the storm. You yearned for some stability that Jaehyun’s music career couldn’t possibly afford.
Yet, when everything was calm, your relationship seemed endless. Like a never-ending open sea that you wished to sail on forever with Jaehyun by your side.
You two first met in your first year of undergrad. You both studied music, but while he majored in composition and preferred rock and modern genres, you fit into the stereotypical classical student trope. Least to say that you and Jaehyun were from two very different worlds. It was still a wonder to you, how you two came to be.
He wanted you to go on the road with him, but you had your own plans and you weren’t the type to throw your whole education away just for a guy.
(Though, at some point at the very beginning of your relationship, you were close to accepting his offer).
The familiar strum of the electric guitar to the beginning of their song Without You began to fill out the small concert venue, immediately eliciting cheers from the crowd. Jaehyun, with his bass guitar, started to sing right after Doyoung, his baritone voice bringing goosebumps to your skin.
Your friends pulled you towards the stage and away from the bar as the song slowly approached its chorus. You all automatically started to jump along with the crowd as the beat dropped when the chorus started.
“Take my hand and draw a circle. This is how much we’ve shared. My whole heart is by your side. Your dreams are by my side.
Living and enduring. If we’re together, we can be a little happier. Once again, we’re connected without an end. Can’t live without you.”
As Jaehyun started to sing the second verse and as you listened to the lyrics, a wave of emotions threatened to overcome you for some reason. You knew that Jaehyun wrote the lyrics, but you didn’t dare to think that perhaps you were meant to be the recipient of the message hidden behind the lyrics.
The concert lasted for about two hours, with the band playing their song Highway to Heaven to conclude the event. The bar was always reserved for the bandmates and the crew to kick back and relax after the concert, and you and the other girls, being as close as you were with the bandmates when they were still in university, always stayed to hang out with them and catch.
“So, what’s new with you all?” Taeyong, the leader and lead guitarist, asked with an arched, curious look before downing a shot of tequila.
Jaehyun’s arm was loosely around your shoulders. His hand played with your hair as you all listened to Jennie’s rant about one of the guys who had been acting cold with her.
“You looked a bit weird at the beginning of the concert, when we sang Without You,” Jaehyun mumbled next to your ear, careful not to raise concern with the others around the two of you. “Was something wrong?”
Your body froze at his question but you quickly shook your head and gave him a small smile in reply. “No, I just needed some fresh air.” You then motioned the glass of rum and coke in your hands. “You know – because of the alcohol.”
“Right,” he replied with a small smirk before giving a small kiss next to your temple before mumbling, “because of the alcohol.”
You snorted. “Are you flirting with me right now?”
“You're my girlfriend. I’m always flirting with you,” Jaehyun chuckled. “Keep up, doll. It’s nothing new.”
You remained impassive and bit your bottom lip asking him softly, “Hey, can we talk?” He arched a questioning brow at you. “Like alone, without the others?”
Jaehyun nodded and grabbed your hand before leading you backstage, where thankfully, all of the employees were already gone. He hadn’t let go of your hand. He looked at you with the same distressed face he had when you told him that you couldn’t give up going to university to accompany him on the road.
You promised each other you were never going to hurt each other again following that conversation, but it seemed like you were going to be the first out of you two to break that promise.
“I was right,” Jaehyun started off, his voice unbelievably grave. “Something is wrong.”
You ran a hand through your hair and sighed. “I can’t do this anymore.”
His grip loosened just the slightest. His bottom lip quivered as he answered, “What do you mean?”
“You can’t just come back in town and ask me to attend your concert and act like everything’s fine when you know it’s not!” you burst out like a dam and leaned your head against his chest. “I’m just so tired, Jae.”
You could feel Jaehyun’s slight hesitance as he hugged you tight, almost as if it was going to be the last time he was going to hold you like this.
The lack of response on your boyfriend’s part only proved what you two had been feeling for perhaps a while now.
Love simply wasn’t enough to keep this relationship afloat.
“Like being pulled by the current. Like floating around the ocean. I’m getting tired, but I don’t see paradise.”
You inhaled deeply and tightened your arms around Jaehyun’s torso, trying to imprint his warmth and scent to your memories one last time before letting him go.
Before letting this relationship go.
“Let’s break up.”

PAIRING. jaehyun x female!reader GENRES. romance, comedy if you squint your eyes, hidden relationship!au, summer vacation!au PROMPT. "my eyes! my virgin eyes!" WORDS. 924
Tumblr media
It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that summer was every student’s favourite season.
Your winter semester ended with your last uni finals that passed by like a flash. They were like a blur and you honestly didn’t know how well you did, and truth to be told, now that summer vacation was starting, your grades were the last thing on your mind.
To celebrate the end of the semester, you and your group of friends decided to spend a long weekend over at Jungwoo’s family cottage in the woods.
While you were excited about the trip, you couldn’t help but feel disappointed that you couldn’t spend some time alone with your boyfriend, Jaehyun.
The guys — Taeil, Johnny, Taeyong, Yuta, Doyoung, Jungwoo, Mark, and Haechan — always considered you as ‘one of the guys’. It was mostly for that reason you and Jaehyun kept your relationship under the wraps until you two found a suitable timing to drop the bomb on your close friends.
But it proved harder than expected, so you two simply decided to hide your relationship until further notice. However, that also meant that you two had to be more careful with the PDA, which sucked because there was nothing more you enjoyed in the world than being affectionate with your boyfriend.
But despite considering you as ‘one of the guys’, they were considerate enough to let you have a whole room for yourself.
“It’s fine,” you reasoned when the 9 of them (or 8, really, since Jaehyun wanted to share a room with you) realized that they would be too crowded in the two other rooms. “I can share the room with one or two of you guys.”
That was how you ended up sharing a room with fortunately, Jaehyun, and Johnny. The latter’s presence brought a scowl to your boyfriend’s handsome face but you reassured him that it was better than not being able to share a room at all.
The boys decided to head to the nearby spring for a quick swim to cool off from the summer heat. Johnny was already done changing and left with the rest of the group, leaving you and Jaehyun alone.
“Finally,” Jaehyun grumbled before pulling you into a tight hug. “I thought he was never going to leave.”
“Good job, baby,” you cooed and patted both of his cheeks tenderly. If you couldn’t keep your hands off him — well, the feeling was pretty mutual on Jaehyun’s part.
Your boyfriend puckered his lips and pouted at you with a small, cute frown. “Give me a prize then, for doing such a good job.”
You rolled your eyes at how dramatic he was, but gave him what he wanted nonetheless. And besides, as if you would pass on the opportunity to kiss him.
Jaehyun proceeded to change his bathing suit. Meanwhile, you were laying on your tummy on your bed and scrolled through your social media feed as you waited for your boyfriend to finish changing.
“Hey, babe,” he called you out and you responded with a hum, but your eyes never left your phone screen. “Babe,” he whined.
“What is it, Jae?” you replied back, still distracted.
“Which swimming trunks should I wear?”
At his question, you finally raised your head to only let out a small, “Jesus Christ!” as Jaehyun stood proudly in front of you in all his naked glory and two of his swimming trunks in each hand. While you had seen him naked plenty of times before, a little warning would have been nice too.
“Nothing you haven’t seen before, babe,” Jaehyun reminded you cheekily.
As you were about to tell him that he should go with his marine blue swimming trunks, the door to your room abruptly opened, startling the two of you in the process.
“Hey, guys, what’s taking-”
Johnny’s eyes slightly widened at the sight in front of him, but he seemed even more perturbed by the fact that you were all nonchalant in front of a very naked Jaehyun. The taller male raised a brow at you skeptically and looked back-and-forth between you and your boyfriend.
“Uh…” he said before calling your name and asked, “Do you not see what’s in front of you?”
You blinked at him in confusion and you were so comfortable being alone with Jaehyun that you had forgotten that none of your friends knew that you two were dating.
“Oh...” you exclaimed slowly before hiding your eyes behind your hands. “My eyes! My virgin eyes!”
You also didn’t miss how Jaehyun slowly brought one of his trunks down to cover his junk. It was during these rare times where sometimes you had to wonder why was he not using that brain of his more? Shouldn’t he wear one of the swimming trunks while Johnny was distracted? Why did he care so much about your opinion when your relationship was about to be exposed?
“Riiight,” Johnny said with a small snort. “That sounded a bit too fake and sarcastic, but in the name of our friendship, I’ll just pretend that I believe it was your first time seeing Jaehyun naked.”
However, you didn’t miss the mischievous glint that glossed over Johnny’s eyes. You shared a glance with Jaehyun and you two mutually sighed. You didn’t like where this was going.
“I’m assuming you two don’t want to tell the others yet about your relationship,” your friend said with a kitten-like smile. “So, in exchange…”
Oh, you definitely didn’t like where this was going.
“Tell me all the juicy details.”

[a/n] HI LOVELY! thank you so much for your constant support, i hope you know how grateful i am for it. i enjoyed writing this request so much, so i hope you will enjoy reading it as much as i had fun writing it♡♡
PAIRING. gryffindor!jaehyun x slytherin!reader  GENRES. romance, fluff if you squint your eyes, hogwarts!au  PROMPT. "i’m asking if you love me too?"  WORDS. 1417
Tumblr media
Quidditch games were one of the most exciting things about Hogwarts. It was probably one of the very few times when even enemies within respective houses would put their differences aside and band together and cheer on their Quidditch team. 
The first game of the season was always the most exhilarating one as it kicked off the Quidditch season, and gave the student body an idea of how much the teams had trained exactly. 
“Alright, this year is our year,” Yuta, the captain of the Slytherin’s team, shouted at you all before your team all mounted your broomsticks. “Time to show those Gryffindors who’s boss.” He then shot a glance at you. “I’m counting on you.”
You were a Chaser, probably one of the best players on your team, if not the best. You fist-bumped Yuta in response. “And I trust you to have my back.” 
Yuta was an unbelievable, ruthless Beater — you wouldn’t have anyone else but your best friend to guard you. 
“Wow, it’s almost as if we’re invisible to them,” Ten muttered next to you, the ⅓ of your little team of Chasers with Haechan, the last Chaser, shaking his head in exasperation. 
“They do realize that they’re not the only ones on the team, right?” Sicheng, the other Beater, said in a teasing manner. 
You rolled your eyes at their remarks. It was a normal recurrence, almost like a ritual you all go through before an important match. The wooden gates finally opened, revealing a roaring crowd waiting for the teams to fly out. As soon as Yuta kicked off from the ground, you followed him right after with the rest of the team and flew around the pitch.
“Hello, and welcome to Hogwarts’ first Quidditch game of the season!” you heard Jaemin, the announcer, say. “Today’s game — Slytherin versus Gryffindor!” 
After flying around, all the players went into their position, placing you directly in front of Gryffindor’s own captain and Keeper, Jung Jaehyun. Ever since he became captain, the Gryffindor team became better, with a lot of students often comparing Jaehyun to Oliver Woods, but without the long speeches. 
There was simply something about Quidditch matches that worked you up and always made you think that Jaehyun was an insufferable bloke. He would always taunt you in the beginning of practically every match, but you tried not to let him get to you. 
You also promised Yuta that you wouldn’t allow Jaehyun to get in your head, no matter how handsome Jaehyun looked in his Quidditch uniform. But really, how could you not ogle him when the uniform fitted him and his muscles so, so well?
“The players take their position as Madam Hooch steps onto the field to begin the game!”
Jaehyun smirked deviously at you. “Like what you’re seeing?”
You scoffed. “You wish, Jung.”
Yuta called your last name with a small growl and motioned Jaehyun with a tilt of his head. “Focus! We can’t lose this game — I’ve got a bet going on with Johnny that we were going to win today.” 
You gave him a look. “Really? You just had to go and make a bet with the other team’s Beater? Do I even want to know what you guys betted on?” 
Yuta only smirked.
Madam Hooch gave her usual speech about a good game and kicked the wooden case containing the animated Bludgers, Quaffle and Golden Snitch. 
“The Bludgers are up, followed by the Golden Snitch,” Jaemin continued. “Remember, the Snitch is worth 150 points. The Seeker who catches the Snitch ends the game.” 
You glanced over at your team’s Seeker, the youngest of your team, Park Jisung, and then looked over at the Gryffindor’s latest addition to their team, who was coincidentally their newest Seeker as well, Zhong Chenle. 
Madam Hooch proceeded to hold the Quaffle and threw it up in the air.
“The Quaffle is released and the game begins!”
You immediately flew forward, barely catching the Quaffle before you flew towards Gryffindors’ goalposts, Haechan and Ten following you close behind. You saw from the corner of your eye Johnny hitting a Bludger towards your direction and you immediately tossed the Quaffle to Haechan before flying down, narrowly missing the Bludger. 
“I’m going to make you pay for that, Suh!” you shouted at him. 
Johnny simply shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly with a feline smile before going after your teammates. Haechan and Ten were getting further and further away from Gryffindor’s goal posts and you tsk-ed at yourself before catching up to them. 
Ten was being sandwiched between Lucas and Sungchan, the two Gryffindor giants and Chasers. You dove headfirst and flew below your teammate with Haechan in front of you. 
“Ten!” you shouted. 
Without even looking at you, Ten immediately dropped the Quaffle to you and you managed to catch it and threw it to Haechan who was already flying ahead. 
“Slytherin is still in possession of the Quaffle thanks to their star player’s quick thinking and the Quaffle is now in the possession of Lee Haechan,” Jaemin kept track of the game. “The Quaffle is now going back and forth between Ten and Haechan and they’re getting closer and closer to Gryffindor’s goal posts! And SCORE! Lee Haechan scores! 10 points for Slytherin!”
The game kept going for a while, with you scoring 60 points out of the 100 scored by the Slytherins. It was currently 100 for the Slytherins and 80 for the Gryffindors. The game couldn’t end without one of the Seekers catching the Snitch and you were starting to wonder whether putting Jisung as the Seeker was a good idea or not. He was still new to the game and perhaps pulling him out of the reserve for the first match of the season was a bad idea. But that was Yuta’s call, not yours. 
So, while Jisung was flying around and chasing that annoying Golden Snitch, it was your job to continue scoring for your team, even if you were tired. 
“Ten passes to their star player and she is flying towards Gryffindor’s goal posts!” Jaemin shouted excitedly. “Sicheng hit a Bludger towards Lucas, knocking him off his broomstick a little, leaving Gryffindor with 2 Chasers for the moment until Lucas is able to mount his broomstick again. Slytherin continues forward without looking back–”
You finally arrived in front of the goal posts with the other players way behind you. Jaehyun seemed exhausted from the game and you almost felt bad but eventually didn’t because that just showed how awesome your plays with Ten and Haechan were. 
Jaehyun scoffed at you when you arrived in front of him face-to-face. “You again?”
“Awn, baby,” you cooed at him. “Is that really something you should say to your girlfriend?”
“Do you even love me?” he asked, dramatically. 
You pretended not to hear his question — what kind of dumb ass question was that? “Huh, what did you say?”
He shook his head and rolled his eyes. “Do you actually love me? I’m asking if you love me too, dummy!”
Your nose scrunched in response and you said, “No, sorry.” with a fake, sickly sweet voice. Jaehyun’s jaw dropped at your confession and you immediately took this opportunity to fly forward, catching him off-guard. You then swerved and instantly went for the left goal post and threw the Quaffle through the ring, with the Slytherin side of the pitch cheering you on as you scored yet another 10 points for the House. 
“That was a low blow.”
You almost laughed at how disheartened Jaehyun looked, probably because you messed around with him too much. And maybe your answer crossed the line just a little. 
“Don’t worry too much, babe,” you said with your lips puckered at him. “I’ll make it up to you.”
He narrowed his eyes, never really liking your plans. “And how exactly are you going to do that?”
You gave him a mysterious smile and flew closer to him. 
“Park Jisung caught the Snitch! He receives 150 points for catching the Snitch!” Jaemin announced while Madam Hooch blew her whistle and announced that Slytherin won the game. The green and white section of the crowd went wild with Jaemin jumping around excitedly and shook his little flag around. 
“And can someone please tell Jaehyun and his girlfriend to stop snogging in the middle of the field?” your housemate lamented. “They keep doing this after every game!” 
Well, how else were you supposed to make it up to your boyfriend, then?

PAIRING. prince!jeno x princess!reader GENRES. romance if you squint your eyes, enemies-to-lovers!au, arranged marriage!au PROMPT. "i'm not jealous" WORDS. 852
Tumblr media
It was tradition for all past crown princes and princesses to have a ball hosted in their honour for their 20th birthday, to signify the official start for the search for their significant other.
In short, it was a ball to find your future husband.
As the crown princess and future queen of the kingdom of Xerin, you had been taught since a young age that it was something that was inevitable. You had to do it because it was part of your duties.
However, unlike what many might think, you didn’t hate this tradition.
Or at least, not as much as your predecessors did.
Your mother, who was the current queen, found your father the same way, and they fell in love. They had a love so strong and beautiful that it made you wish that you had something similar to what they have, or at least an ounce of what they have.
You once believed that the tradition wouldn’t be necessary as you already had someone in mind in regards to who you wanted to be your future spouse.
You stole a glance over at Prince Jeno, one of the oldest princes from the Dream kingdom. He was the one you had in mind as the two of you were once as close as your parents were. But something shifted in your relationship’s dynamics, one that you couldn’t understand and still couldn’t comprehend today. Ever since then, you two hadn’t had a civil conversation.
Even though it was a ball in your honour, you couldn’t help but feel the loneliness creeping up on you as the only birthday wish you had for the longest time was for Jeno to simply look at you again.
“May I have this dance, your Highness?”
You broke out of your reverie to only see Prince Haechan extending a hand for you. Your lips pursed in apprehension — you weren’t really in a mood to socialize even though it was your birthday party.
But a nudge on the part of your mother forced a smile upon your face and to nod reluctantly at Haechan’s request.
You and Haechan barely danced for half of the song when someone suddenly barged in between the two of you.
“Prince Haechan, mind if I cut in?”
Your eyes widened in surprise as Jeno glared at his cousin. They then went back-and-forth between Haechan and Jeno’s extending hand. However, you also didn’t miss the small smirk that appeared on the former’s face as he accepted Jeno’s request.
“Of course not.”
You curtsied just the slightest at Jeno’s small bow as the music restarted for a new dance. Jeno’s hand tightened around your hand and waist whereas his face remained as stoic as ever. You frowned in response, not liking his attitude one bit.
“That wasn’t very polite of you,” you muttered through gritted teeth as you two waltzed. “Not to mention how you basically ignored royal protocol.”
Jeno scoffed. “Since when do we have a royal protocol when it comes to waltzing?”
You were slightly taken aback. “Since you asked to waltz with the princess that’s about to get married off to some random dude, then yeah, there’s a royal protocol, alright.”
Jeno’s expression hardened at your words, almost as if he was angry at the thought of it — but that was impossible, right? Why would he be angry, anyway?
But he proved you wrong. “As if I’d let you marry some random guy that you don’t even like.”
“And why on Earth would you even care about who I marry?”
Jeno’s silence was deafening.
“Wait…” Your cheeks felt hot at his lack of response. “Are- are you jealous?”
The prince’s jaw slackened even more and he refused to meet your eyes as he gritted out, “I’m not jealous.”
You squeezed his hand in anger, but nothing in his expression showed that it hurt. “Fine, whatever! Let’s just pretend you’re not jealous — then how is it any of your business who I’m marrying? What if I do like Prince Haechan? Who are you to prevent me from marrying him?”
“Haechan?” Jeno snorted almost in amusement. “As if he’s your type.”
You rolled your eyes. “And because you know my type so well.”
But the look he gave you following your sentence was indescribable and almost challenging. It felt as if Jeno was able to see through you perfectly and it was a feeling that left you nervous because the last thing you wanted was for him to discover your feelings for him. You were intent on keeping your feelings locked away and bringing them with you to your grave.
“I just don’t want you to get hurt.”
God, you simply couldn’t take this anymore. How long did the song last and why was it not over yet?
“And how exactly are you going to prevent me from getting hurt, then?” you retorted.
“By marrying me.”
You almost tripped but you took your revenge by accidentally stepping over Jeno’s feet. “Excuse me?” you spluttered.
Jeno tilted his head before giving you a smouldering smirk.
“You will be marrying me.”

There was a certain monotony to the life of the 1%.
But as much as you hated how everyone simply just knew each other and their business — pretty much like a small, gated community, albeit a privileged, small, gated community — you couldn’t deny how much you enjoyed the lavish parties, the private jets and vacations, and even the dreaded and tacky polo matches between various families that came from old money.
Speaking of dreaded, tacky polo matches, today was the annual summer polo fundraiser match. A tradition started by the old business tycoons of the country that was eventually passed down to your generation.
Although you weren’t one to enjoy sweating underneath the scorching sun, you couldn’t miss the opportunity to buy new polo shirts from Thom Browne and Bottega Veneta and a pair of new riding boots from Alberto Fasciani, to see your polo pony and ride it, and of course, to catch up with some close friends.
You handed your empty flute of champagne to a waiter passing by before grabbing another one from the tray they were holding. You sipped slowly as you carefully watched the polo match that was currently unfolding in front of you. It was a seven-minute chukka meant to determine which team would be able to pick their respective opponents if they came out as the winner.
The referee blew his whistle, marking the end of the chukka. Jung Jaehyun’s team came out as the winner and therefore, he was in a position to pick out everyone’s opponents for today’s event.
You tried not to roll your eyes at how smug he seemed when he picked your team as his team’s opponent. You never understood why he enjoyed riling you up so much. For as long as you knew him, he’d be more inclined to annoy you especially on days where you decided to ignore him.
But despite the slight irritation you’d feel whenever he showed a triumphant smirk, you couldn’t deny how attractive that man was. You couldn’t ignore how his polo uniform fit him so perfectly, how the beads of sweat seemed to glisten over his tanned skin, his red tongue poking out of his–
Whoa, that was enough of your head being in the gutter. You could already hear your friends snicker at your lack of subtlety.
“Careful,” Seulgi sang, “or you two might just have to skip your match to have a little quickie in–”
“Don’t even think about finishing that sentence, Kang Seulgi,” you warned her with a small huff, even if her words spoke the truth.
“Please, we all know what’s going to happen between the two of you when your match ends.” Jennie snorted.
You were about to retort back when a tenor voice cut into your conversation. “And what exactly is going to happen between the two of us when our match ends, hmm?”
Really, if you were to get a dollar for every time you rolled your eyes at Jaehyun, you’d probably be richer than Jeff Bezos and have your eyes stuck to the back of your head from rolling them so much.
“Buzz off, Jung,” you waved him away with a gloved hand. “Stay away from me until the end of our match.”
“Awn,” Jaehyun cooed. “Why the attitude, baby girl? Angry that we’re up against each other?”
You scoffed loudly in a lame attempt to cover how flustered you were by the nickname he had given you. Why was he even calling you that in public?
“A-as if! You made us enemies. I never wanted this.”
“Enemies? Aren’t we being a bit over-dramatic today?”
At your deadpanned expression, Jaehyun smirked at you as he lowered his face to your level. “Oh, come on. It wouldn’t be our first time playing against each other and it wouldn’t be your first time losing to me either.”
You glared at him with crossed arms. “Please, last time I checked, our score was 50 to 49. And the 50 was for me.”
The male raised his brow with a lopsided grin. He really shouldn’t be looking this attractive, right now. “Care to have a friendly wager with me?”
Your lips pursed at his proposal, but you were confident that you and your team were going to win the upcoming match against him. “What do you have in mind?”
Jaehyun laughed at your question, his laugh sounding melodious to your ears. “If I win, then you will have to take some time off from work and go with me to Greece for two weeks.”
Your eyes narrowed. “Fine, and if I win, you’re taking care of the house chores for the next three months.”
For the first time, Jaehyun didn’t seem too confident. “It sounds like the bet is too skewed in your favour.”
“Awn, is someone scared of losing?” you provoked him with a teasing tone.
Your provocation seemed to have worked as Jaehyun shook your hand while sucking his teeth.
“You’re on, wifey.”
You snickered and blew a kiss to him.
“Don’t complain when you lose, hubby.”

Sicheng + coffee shop au + 18 “I’m not jealous” maybe?
[a/n] hi, anon! thanks so much for requesting! i'm so happy to have received a request with sicheng as the male lead so i had a lot of fun writing this drabble! enjoy!! xoxo
PAIRING. sicheng x female barista!reader GENRES. romance, comedy, coffee shop!au PROMPT. "i'm not jealous." WORDS. 1006
Tumblr media
Being a barista was a relatively cool part-time job with lots of perks.
For one, unlimited coffee.
Your boss, Kun, was the sweetest guy ever who allowed you to work as a barista in his café even though you had 0 experience.
Your co-workers, Hendery and Xiaojun, were the funniest guys ever and they always made your shifts so entertaining.
Your regulars, Ten, Lucas, and Yangyang, were the nicest customers you’ve ever met in this line of service (and they gave you nice tips too even though you insisted that they shouldn’t).
And last, but not least, it was thanks to this job that you met your now-boyfriend, Sicheng.
The story of how you got together with Sicheng was actually quite funny. Perhaps not terribly hilarious, but definitely bordering on what people would call “cute” in the cringiest way possible. But you didn’t regret the way you hit on Sicheng, especially not when your method proved to be successful.
“Hey, you,” Sicheng greeted you with a cute smile before leaning over the counter and gave you a small peck on the lips.
“Hi.” You smiled against his lips.
Your boyfriend then proceeded to take the seat and table closest to the counter before setting himself up for a study session in the café. Due to both of your busy schedules, you two made it so that you two would walk back to the university dorms together. Since he was done with his classes early today, he came by to wait for you at the coffee shop.
“What do you feel like drinking today?” you asked him as you picked up a paper cup.
“Kun reminded me to tell you to stop using the paper cups for Sicheng,” Xiaojun piped up as he came back from the bathroom and did a fist-bump with your boyfriend.
“He also wants to tell you to stop giving him free coffee,” Hendery added after serving a drink to the last customer. “He said and I quote, ‘This isn’t a charity, I’m running here, but a business,’ and un-quote.”
You three gave each other a look before bursting out in laughter. When was the last time you three actually listened to your boss, anyway?
(You could already hear Kun crying at your way of thinking, but that was simply the way you three showed your love to him.)
“It’s been almost close to two years since you and Sicheng started dating,” Xiaojun commented. “Isn’t it about time you stop with the pick-up lines on the paper cups?”
You looked at him with scrutiny before turning to your boyfriend. “What do you think? Do you want me to stop?”
Sicheng shrugged nonchalantly with an angelic smile. “I don’t mind, really. I actually look forward to them every time I come by.”
“See,” you said as you motioned to your co-worker, “there you have it.”
“Please,” Hendery scoffed. “You mean to tell me that Sicheng liked it when you wrote, ‘You look so familiar. Didn’t we take a class together? I could’ve sworn we had chemistry.’ or ‘Your hand looks heavy — can I hold it for you?’? Stop lying and just say you want to put your claim on him, or something.”
“Awn,” you cooed and pinched Hendery’s cheek. “Is someone jealous because they don’t have a cute girl writing pick-up lines for them on their coffee cups?”
“No one thinks that you’re cute!”
You pinched him slightly harder before slightly pushing Hendery away. “Sicheng does.” You turned to him. “Right?”
Sicheng only chuckled and nodded. “The cutest!”
Hendery rubbed his cheek, hoping to soothe the pain, before grumbling, “I’m telling you, Sicheng, you better leave this girl soon because she is violent.”
You simply rolled your eyes and proceeded to make a caramel macchiato for Sicheng, one of his favourite drinks, while Hendery was manning the cash, and Xiaojun went to the back to bake some pastries. You pondered on which pick-up line to use on your boyfriend and decided to ask for his opinion, when you saw him talking to another girl who was standing a bit too close for your comfort.
“Oh, would you look at that?” Hendery mused. “She gave her number to him.”
The girl didn’t even give the chance for Sicheng to refuse the piece of paper that probably contained her phone number and then left with her drink in her hands. You thought to yourself that maybe you should have spat in it or something, or give her two pumps of caramel drizzle instead of four.
“Hey,” Sicheng said as he came to the counter, realizing that you were done making his drink. “What did you write for me, this time?”
You narrowed your eyes at your boyfriend before turning away from him and hid the paper cup and pen. “Nothing yet.”
Sicheng seemed puzzled by your sudden change of behaviour, which made sense since you were nothing but loving and sweet not even a couple of minutes ago. The wheels in his head turned and he let out a small ‘ah’ of realization before snorting to himself, his arms crossed on his chest, smug.
“Is someone jealous?”
You spluttered. “Who’s jealous? Me? Psh. I’m not jealous. Hendery, are you jealous?”
Hendery raised both of his hands and backed away from you. “Oh, hell no, you are not bringing me into this.”
You rolled your eyes. “Whatever, I’m not jealous. Why would I be jealous?”
Sicheng shook his head and chuckled deeply. “You’re cute when you’re jealous.”
“Uh, huh,” you replied back distractedly as you wrote your daily pick-up line on his coffee cup. You then handed it to him with a sickenly loving smile. “Here you go, my love.”
He puckered his lips in thanks before taking a sip and returned to his seat. Giddily, he turned his paper cup around to find what you had written for him, to only see you had only written four words this time around.
You can go die♡
Well, those were definitely not the words he was expecting to read.

PAIRING. ravenclaw!doyoung x slytherin!female reader GENRES. romance, slight angst, established relationship!au, hogwarts!au PROMPT. "if the choice comes down to my life or yours, i'm always going to choose yours." WORDS. 817
WARNINGS. the story takes place during harry potter and the deathly hallows, so the events mentioned in this drabble are canon. you don't necessarily have to have read the books/watch the movies to understand what's going on but it might provide some bg info(?) + swearing!
Tumblr media
A comfortable silence enveloped you and Doyoung as you two stood idly in the middle of the Room of Requirement, the famous Mirror of Erised in front of you two. You heard much about it, from both your headmaster Dumbledore and your friend Harry Potter.
It wasn’t any of your intentions to find the said Room or the Mirror. But the Carrows were ruthless against students who were either not part of Slytherin or not purebloods.
As Head Girl from the House of Slytherin, and considering your pureblood status, Neville Longbottom deemed you to be the best option to scour the school and find a suitable place for your fellow students to hide from the two professors.
Doyoung, your boyfriend and Head Boy from the House of Ravenclaw, insisted on accompanying you on this mission. Both of you wished to find a safe place for the students to hide from the Carrows, and that was how the Room of Requirement appeared.
You hadn’t thought much about it, just hoping to find a hideaway. Perhaps that was why such a generic room appeared in front of you two.
“Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi,” Doyoung read the inscription before translating it. “I show not your face but your heart’s desire.”
Your eyes squinted at the mirror, wondering what exactly it would show you. With what could possibly be the Second Wizarding War happening outside of Hogwarts walls, your missing friends, and the loss of security at where you thought was the safest place in the world, there was much you desired.
You quickly stole a look over at your boyfriend, who seemed to bear the same scrutiny as you for the mirror, before a look of curiosity took over his face. You tried not to snort at him. Typical Ravenclaw.
“What do you see?” you asked him, curious.
Doyoung turned to you and gave you a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. You knew that the past few months had been more than difficult for him, and yet, here he was, still trying to pretend to be strong in front of you. At that thought, the mirror shimmered and finally revealed what you desired the most.
It showed you and Doyoung growing old together and sending your children off to Hogwarts on the 9¾ platform, and your heart broke the tiniest at the vision the mirror showed you.
You knew that it was intrinsically inherent for human nature to desire something greater than one’s own self; meaning that an event wherein the mirror fails to carry out its intended purpose rarely, if at all, happens. With the numerous events happening, you wouldn’t – shouldn’t – be surprised that your deepest desire was one that could not be easily fulfilled.
Doyoung took your hand in his and squeezed it tightly.
“What’s wrong?” you asked him as you gently squeezed his hand back.
“Just…” he sighed and his dark orbs stared right at you, unflinching. “If the choice comes down to my life or yours, I’m always going to choose yours.”
You didn’t understand why he was telling you this. You shook your head at his words, almost erratically. “No, you take those words back. You can’t just say that. You promised – we promised to each other that we were going to get through this together. What happened to that?!”
Doyoung pulled you into a tight hug, hoping to calm you down a little.
“Of course I’m keeping my promise,” he reassured you. “But just in the event that something does happen and we’re forced to pick, I will always pick you.”
“You’re fucking stupid for saying that,” you mumbled, your head buried in his chest. “No way am I even going to let you make that dumb decision. I’ll fight Voldemort, if I have to.”
A moment of silence passed while you two spent it in each other’s arms, not knowing when exactly you would have this private time to yourselves again. It didn’t take long for Draco Malfoy, your fellow prefect, to look for you.
You sighed. Draco was persistent.
“You should go,” Doyoung mumbled.
You nodded in agreement. You turned one last time to Doyoung, who stayed behind so that you two wouldn’t get caught together, and he gave you a half-smile when you were about to leave the Room of Requirement.
“I love you,” you said. “You know that, right?”
Doyoung perhaps didn’t expect you to say those words to him at the moment. You were not a person of much words and preferred to show your love through actions, and Doyoung knew that.
He chuckled under his breath and shook his head, knowing he had never been able to keep up with you ever since the start of your relationship. Doyoung nodded determinedly. He then gave you a genuine smile – the most genuine you’d seen in a while – and said,
“Always.”

PAIRING. mark x female reader  GENRES. romance, college!au, friends-to-lovers!au  PROMPT. "i never planned on falling for you."  WORDS. 620 
Tumblr media
How long has it been since this cold war between you and Mark started? 
While you two went on to do your things as if nothing went down between the two of you, the awkward silences and the lack of actual conversations led you to believe otherwise. 
Also, Mark was just a terrible liar. 
Were you guys… in a fight? 
Even if you two were fighting, you didn’t understand why Mark was ignoring you. Did you do something that pissed him off? But, either way, your best friend wasn’t one to ignore you like that or to cut off all communication just because he was mad. 
If anything, you were the one who would throw a tantrum whenever you two argue and Mark would always let you win because he didn’t like fighting with you. 
You tried looking back at the past week, picking at every memory you could remember to see if you had done something wrong that might have rubbed Mark in the wrong way. 
Was it because he told you to only take a sip of his bubble tea but you ended up drinking the whole thing?
Or when you asked him to meet you at 9 in the morning at the university’s library, but you overslept and made him wait over 2 hours?
“Mark!” you called him out aggressively as you two walked back to your dorm, surprising you both. 
You took a deep breath when Mark stared back at you with his eyes wide like a deer in headlights. 
“We need to talk,” you told him, brows furrowed in determination. “And I also mean that literally.” 
“W-what are you talking about?” he stuttered.
“W-what are you talking about?” you mocked him and rolled your eyes. “You know exactly what I’m talking about! You’ve been avoiding me like the plague!” 
With the way he was fidgeting in front of you, perhaps you did do something that made him ignore you for a while. Perhaps to cool off?
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Or was it maybe because you still haven’t given back his favourite hoodie even though he asked for it back weeks ago? 
But what were you supposed to do, give it back to him when that piece of clothing was so comfortable? 
“I mean it, Lee.” You narrowed your eyes and sighed. “Look, just tell me what I did wrong so I can apologize and we can just go back to how things were.” 
Mark remained silent and you refrained yourself from letting out another sigh. 
Boy, he must be really pissed.
Wait, was it because–
“I never planned on falling for you!”
“–I accidentally spilled my iced chai latte on your guitar?” 
You two exclaimed at the same time and it was your turn to be stupefied. 
“You said what, now?”
Man, this silence was more awkward than the one that transpired when you two first met at orientation. 
Mark refused to meet your eyes and he seemed shocked by his confession, almost as if he couldn’t believe he just did that. 
As for you, you couldn’t believe that Mark was this dense. 
“Well, I never planned on having a boyfriend that’s as dimwitted as you, but life just never goes the way we plan, huh?”
“B-boyfriend?”
“Yes, my boyfriend, Mark,” you teased him. “Unless you want to stay as my best friend–”
“Dude, no! Boyfriend’s totally cool. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.” 
You snorted and looped an arm around his before pulling him towards your dorm. 
“How about we start calling your girlfriend with a nickname other than dude, shall we?” 
Mark scratched his head before answering you with a cute, small scrunch of his nose. 
“So, like, dud…ette?”

WARNINGS. fighting, sword fight, swearing
Tumblr media
As your heart pounded loudly against your ribcage and your blood rushed in your ears, you wondered whether this was the right time for you to regret not listening to your boyfriend, Johnny’s, words.
In your defense, when Johnny first warned you to be careful, you got slightly offended that he was so worried over your well-being (as any boyfriend should). But you were more angry about the fact that he used charmspeak on you.
Damn that son of Aphrodite, you told yourself. If it weren’t for his words, you wouldn’t be here second-guessing all of your actions.
But maybe it was unintentional on his part. While you weren’t one to defend him from dumb things, children of Aphrodite blessed with this gift may not realize that that they were using this ability and although not trying to put any power into their words, could still charmspeak other people. You were slightly reminded of Johnny’s half-sister, Piper McLean, who was the Aphrodite cabin’s current head counsellor and how she managed to charmspeak her way to getting a free car.
But you couldn’t allow yourself to get distracted right now. Your hand tightened around the retractable pen that your father had given you to celebrate the fact that you made it alive to Camp Half-Blood when you were thirteen. A retractable pen that also acted as a powerful sword made from Celestial Bronze the second you clicked on it.
You counted backwards in your head, as instructed by your step-brother when he informed you of his plan before the start of your mission.
Five… four… three… two… one… Now!
You immediately came out of your hiding spot and ran across the deck of the ship you were on. The person acting as a guard didn’t sense you coming when you rammed your body against theirs.
Both of your bodies slid across the deck and you managed to block their sword just in time with your own. You let out a small grunt at the brute force behind their attack and retaliated by kicking their chest.
As your opponent flew away from you, you quickly took the opportunity to get back on your feet and ran towards them.
Amidst your sword exchange, you failed to take your surroundings into consideration, which was a big mistake on your part as you were too concentrated on your sword fight.
The ship shook strongly, causing you to lose your balance and break your concentration. In the sword fight, that sort of predicament would usually cost you. But luckily, your opponent’s balance was also lost and their legs stumbled at how hard the ship was shaking back-and-forth against the waves, almost as if it was fighting with the waters.
What in Hades’ hell is going on? you asked yourself and finally looked properly around you, for once.
You heard how hard the wind howled as droplets of water from the heavy rain splashed across your face. It took you a stupid moment to ask yourself, Holy gods, were you stuck in a freaking hurricane, right now?
Your adversary took this opportunity to tackle your whole body, practically shoving you against the railing and causing you to drop your sword.
Your weapon slid across the deck smoothly and away from you. You clicked your tongue in annoyance but you weren’t completely defenseless just yet — you could still retrieve it.
But it almost seemed like you spoke too soon as the ship seemed to have gotten itself right in the middle of the hurricane and it shook badly and strongly as ever. The vessel shifted abruptly to the other side, causing your adversary to stumble but they somehow managed to give you a few cuts across your face and arms.
You hissed in pain and wondered just how did you end up in this position?
The storm seemed to be acting more in your opponent’s favour than yours, which was probably the most ironic thing that could possibly happen to you, right now.
“You’re going down,” your opponent declared to you before your back hit the railings once again.
“Yeah, right,” you scoffed back at them. But you didn’t have the chance to back your words as they easily lifted you up over the railing and you quickly connected the dots together.
“Oh,” you said as your eyes travelled from then to the open, roaring waters. “Oh, okay, you meant that literally. Are you sure you want to do this? Like take a moment– Okay, yeah you’re really adamant about throwing me into that storm–”
Without another second of hesitation, your body flew away from the ship and you fell into the cold water. The waves roared and crashed against you, not giving you a chance to stabilize yourself. The water was slightly darker than usual due to the storm. But you weren’t lost — you knew exactly where you were and were certain you could navigate yourself through this murky mess.
You decided that you weren’t going to resurface for now. The water had always been on your side anyway, even if it didn’t seem like it at first. You decided to take this time to think and rework the plan.
The burning sensation you felt from the cuts earlier on slowly cooled down and it almost felt as if they were never there to begin with. And the slight exhaustion from fighting an opponent that was twice your size was washed away too. However, that small moment of peace was snatched away from you, quite literally, when you felt a hand wrap around your wrist and pulled you upwards towards the surface of the water.
You spluttered in disbelief when your head popped out from the water and glared around to see who in their wrong mind would ever do this to you.
“J-Johnny?!” you exclaimed, incredulous at the sight of your boyfriend. “What the hell are you doing here?!”
“What did I tell you!” he shouted back at you with the same amount of vigour. “Didn’t I tell you to stop pulling heroic shit when I’m not around to talk you out of it? Do you think you’re invincible or something? Gods, you almost drowned!”
You were too shocked to reply to Johnny as he really wasn’t supposed to be here with you. But most importantly, was he even hearing himself?
“John, babe,” you held him on as the waves didn’t seem to calm down. “You have to–”
The loud sound of a horn blared through the sky, startling the both of you. Your eyes widened in bewilderment and you cursed under your breath.
“The treasure has been found!” Chiron’s voice boomed. “Poseidon’s cabin won against Zeus’s cabin and they’re moving into the semi-finals against Athena’s cabin. Demigods, back to the shore!”
At the announcement, the winds and water around you finally calmed down and the sun peeked through the cloudy sky that was slowly to clear up.
“You know babe,” you started to say as Johnny seemed to have finally realized the situation you were truly in (and his eyes were shifting back and forth in slight panic). “I might not be invincible, but don’t you think that being the daughter of Poseidon makes me pretty damn invincible in the water?”
“Ha… ha…” your boyfriend let out a chuckle awkwardly. “I might have forgotten that small detail?”
“And with Johnny’s sudden involvement,” Chiron added with a small snicker. “Aphrodite’s cabin is officially disqualified from the tournament and loses their place at the semi-finals.”
You snorted at the announcement whereas Johnny truly seemed like he was panicking. But more than anything, he looked afraid but of what?
Scratch that, your answer was soon answered when Piper practically shouted in anger, “Johnny Suh! You better watch your back when your ass gets back here!”
Johnny shuddered at the voice of his sister, practically fuming in anger. You understood why though. After all, it was the first time in a while that Aphrodite’s cabin made it past the preliminaries thanks to Piper’s leadership and Johnny’s and some of his siblings’ cooperation. Now, Johnny practically blew their shot at ever coming close to the finals. It’d be another while before the Aphrodite’s cabin will feel motivated again to compete, even with Piper’s charmspeak.
“And here I was wondering where my little sister went.”
You and Johnny’s head whipped up to see your older step-brother, Percy Jackson, smirking down at you two from the ship’s railings with the small treasure box in his hand.
“You just had to go all out, huh?” you replied back with a huff. “Where did you think we were, the open sea? What went through your mind that you had to conjure up a whole hurricane in the middle of the camp’s lake?”
“Hey!” Percy frowned. “I’m back from the university at Camp Jupiter for the first time in a while and this is how you repay me? By shaming me because I helped our cabin win this round? I don’t recall raising you this way.”
“Johnny Suh!” Piper’s angry voice cut in. “Get your ass back here!”
Percy snorted. “If I were you, I wouldn’t worry too much about how I conjured up a hurricane and instead, should worry more about Hurricane McLean, right there.”
Johnny gave you a look and a small smirk. “So, daughter of Poseidon, got an extra space in that air bubble of yours?”
You giggled and kissed him on the lip. “For my favourite boy? Always.”
You then pulled Johnny underwater before giving him another kiss as he wrapped his hands around your hips and pulled you closer.
Yup, definitely the best underwater kiss ever.
