I suddenly wanna add "Don't leave me alone, baby. Just stay for the night, baby."
sacred romantic moments
“ don't go. stay. “
“ but you're here, so stay. “
“ i don't want to be alone tonight. “
“ just come over. “
“ let's be alone together. “
“ i didn't know where else to go. “
“ i don't want us to be apart anymore. ever. “
“ i wouldn't have called you if it wasn't important. “
“ you can talk to me about anything. you know that, right? “
“ just... be honest with me, do you hate me? “
“ i could never hate you. not really. “
“ you're my friend, but... sometimes i wish you were more than that. “
“ we're not just friends. you know that. “
“ i think i'm falling in love with you. “
“ can i hold your hand? “
“ yeah, you're in love with me. “
“ just hold me. “
“ things would be so much easier if we were honest with each other. “
“ why can't you be honest with me? with yourself? “
“ maybe you could stay? just for tonight? “
“ it’s dark outside, and it’s raining. my arms are much safer. “
“ you can't keep doing this. you can't keep lying to yourself. “
“ i can't keep lying to myself, or to you. it's not fair on either of us. “
“ i think you should kiss me. “
“ kiss me like you mean it. “
“ just kiss me. “
“ you shouldn't kiss me right now. “
“ look me in the eyes and tell me you love me. “
“ you can't lie to me, you know. “
“ you know me better than anyone. you always have. “
“ you're pretty amazing. you know that, right? “
“ you're just... you're extraordinary. “
“ you're good to me, you know. really good. “
“ you've made me the happiest i've ever been. “
“ i don't know what i would have done if you weren't here. “
“ our love can conquer anything. “
“ and for many generations to come, our love story will live on. “
“ i want you to marry me. “
“ if you asked me to marry you tomorrow, i'd say yes. “ “ what about today? “
“ marry me, name. marry me and make me the luckiest [x] in the world. “
“ your kiss could mend a broken heart. “
“ are you going to kiss me again, or do i have to do it myself? “
“ i could cry, that's how much i love you. “
“ you're worthy of my love. “
“ truth is that i'm so damn in love with you that i don't know what to do with myself. “
“ maybe tonight, it's you and me. “
“ i don't know what the future holds. all i know is that i hope you're in it. “
“ could you promise me one thing? “
“ promise me that we'll be together, no matter what. “
“ it's you and me, forever. no matter what. “
“ i didn't want to tell you until i was sure, but... i'm pregnant. “
“ we're going to be family! “
“ this baby, it's the best thing that could ever have happened to us. “
“ i can't believe this, we're going to be parents! “
“ dance with me? “
“ may i have this dance? “
“ you're my whole world, you know. “
“ don't speak, just... kiss me. “
“ you have no idea how long i've been wanting to that. “
“ i've been wanting to tell you for so long... “
“ so... is this like, a thing now? “
“ i always miss you, even when you're next to me. “
” i miss you. i miss you so much it hurts. ”
” i don’t want you to miss me. it’s tearing me apart. ”
“ you make me happier. “
“ i love waking up next to you. “
“ my favorite thing is falling asleep next to you. “
“ come cuddle with me. “
“ this is torture, isn't it? “ “ not in the slightest. “
“ do you love me? “
“ could this be something more? “
“ move in with me. “
“ do you think we should move in together? you spend all your time here anyway. “
“ are you serious? i've had a crush on you for as long as i can remember. “
“ i know you're in love with me. “
“ you're really cute, you know. “
“ you're so damn attractive. you know that right? “
“ if anybody were to kiss me, i would want that person to be you. “
“ and right now, i think you should kiss me. “

God, Is That You? | 20190322
Author: @julietsoddeye
Genre: Angst | Fluff | Fantasy AU
Pairing: Xiumin x Female Reader (ft. Taeyong)
Warning: Language | Mention of bleeding/blood in this update
Plot: Dear Diary, hopefully this is just a dream because this is not how he said it should be!
A/N: sorry this took a while D:
<prev> m.list <next>
﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎
~Walking along through the mud, you feel very depleted yet your feet are not stopping for anything.
You don't have the slightest idea why you're strolling through this filthy way, or for how long you've been doing it. Your feet are exceptionally dingy from strolling alongside this wet soil beneath your feet.
Why are you even bare feet?
Your beautifully-fit amaranth dress has splatters of blacks and greys and browns of different shades because of the muddy earth.
“Didn’t I tell you to be careful of men?”
You heard the familiar voice of the ethereal pink gentleman.
The sound of it kind of disappointed, not angry, but just a bit let down.
“God–uhhh, Angel... Guy, dude?” you call out, your feet still not stopping from marching on.
He's not anywhere in sight, everything you can only see is a ceaseless expanse of sloppy earth and dim skies.
“Come, my gummy bear, just a little more. Come to me.”
His voice sounded bright and encouraging now.
"Where are you?" you call for him once more, you can feel tears welling from your eyes now, somewhat terrified and beaten since you can't see him.
The unexpected yearning to see his divine features is hurting you profoundly. Your heart consumes for his essence. You need to see his face, you need to feel his touch, you need him. You unexpectedly need him like your skin is arid land and he is the water that can just extinguish your desperate insatiability, your extreme yearning.
"Simply follow my voice," he trains and afterward began to sing a melody,
“Will you come a little closer? I want to stay next to you like this. It’s alright, even if you don’t say anything. When I look into your eyes, I know, I feel everything. Will you look at me? You shine in me. Can’t get any more beautiful. You’re the reason that I keep walking”
The timbre of his singing voice was similarly just about as delightful as you recollect his beauty was.
The exhaustion and stress you felt are gradually dissipating and the more he sings the quite-familiar-but-not-really ballad with his lovely voice, the easier it was to walk, and slowly, slowly you can really, truly feel yourself float…
Drifting away from the earth, the wreck of the wet earth you were formerly strolling on.
You close your eyes as you sail gently on the air, traveling somewhere and nowhere at the same time. The cool wind blowing gently on your face, your hair, your whole being.
And suddenly you felt it—you felt warmth, kindness, serenity, love—you felt him… Finally.
You opened your eyes and he was there. The benevolent, sincere, and enchanting beauty that is this… Man.
He was holding you inside of his embrace. Both arms are covering, sheltering you from all harm. No more mud, no more strained feet, no more suffering. Just peace, harmony, and happiness.
All is well. Not a damn thing can hurt you now.
"You're safe now, gummy bear," he murmurs, the gleam in his expression is particularly lovely as he says the pet name to you.
“Gummy bear,” you repeat in a whisper.
And he gave you a smile so white and radiant, you know it can light up the whole place if not the sky is already so bright. For a moment your eyes are focused on his lips and when you look back up into his eyes, he makes a small shift of acknowledgment with them, a squint, letting you know that he’s got you and you’re okay and you’re cherished and snug inside his arms.
His face gradually inching to yours, eyes slowly shutting, you can feel the warmth of his breath hushing your own eyes shut. What's more, when his lips touch yours, you both burst into a million flying butterflies.~
You open your eyes, “just another dream,” exits your lips.
But you’re smiling.
It was a beautiful dream and you can’t help but linger on it.
You enter your bathroom with a tiny dance.
You do your hair and makeup while humming a melody.
You watered and sprayed your plants with sway and swing to your feet.
You greeted the bus driver, the barista, and the office building guard with a bigger smile.
You can feel today is going to be a good day.
Of course, you’re early for work, no one’s around yet. So you place the coffee you bought for Taeyong right in the middle of his table and go sit at your desk. You check your messages and sure enough, there’s a bajillion messages from XiuMin. Something about what you were talking about last night until you fell asleep on him again. And, of course, you reply one by one of each opinion and take about the topic he sent.
You were smiling from ear to ear and you didn’t notice Taeyong arriving.
“Someone is happy this morning,” Taeyong suddenly chuckled as he dropped his bag on his chair with a silent thud.
You were slightly jolted with his hasty entrance, but you got over it pretty quickly and toggle your phone asleep and lay it screen down.
“Just woke up to the right side of the bed today,” you grin enthusiastically and take a sip of your already lukewarm coffee.
The first half of the day went on as normal. Although Taeyong was called by Mr. Lee fifteen minutes before lunch, so Taeyong told you to take your lunch without him. Probably one of those lunch-out things they do once a month to meet clients.
You’ve been working for the company longer than Taeyong, heck a lot of your coworkers have been working there longer than you both combined, but Mr. Lee has a weird ‘favoritism’ over Taeyong. Sometimes, you can’t help but feel a little bad, especially on projects you know you’re gonna excel at. But you know Taeyong can’t control it, that the Team Leader favors him over anyone. He’s doing so great at his job so far.
So you take lunch alone again, this happens monthly. At least it only happens once, or twice when Taeyong goes to a different project team that month. And you notice people are still whispering around you. You have to get used to this, this isn’t going to be the first and last time until you find another job that is. But knowing how good this one pays, that option is not available for now.
“Hey, girl. Can I sit with you?”
Your inner thoughts were abruptly broken off by Jimin’s appearance.
Oh, Jimin, the office “fairy”, the pretty girl Jimin. Mr. Lee’s ex-secretary, who was ‘demoted’ to office staff because she was lazy and couldn’t keep up with his tight schedule and demands. The department couldn’t let her go though, because some clients always ask for her. She’s not only an “asset” to the company, she was also Taeyong’s ex-girlfriend. They briefly dated last year, but Taeyong couldn’t stand her. She’s beautiful outside, but kinda rotten on the inside. Loves to insult people behind her back and Taeyong couldn’t stay with that.
“Uuuh, sure,” you scoot a little bit aside to make room for her, even though you’re alone in a six-people table and she has plenty more space. And of course, true to Jimin fashion, she sat right snug beside you, almost sitting on half of your thigh, almost ugh.
“Your best friend out on a lunch date with Mr. Lee again?” Jimin jokes condescendingly. Her smug and snooty face, you just wanna smash on the plate of the vegan meal in front of her.
But before you can even react to her statement, she has managed to interrupt you again.
“Anywho… There’s a rumor circulating about you in the office, did you know?” Jimin whispers the last part, as if there are too many people around you when in fact there’s only you and her inside the pantry.
“Oh? I didn’t know,” You answer blandly and took a bite of your burger. Your lukewarm response doesn't seem to bother Jimin, it’s like it just flew over her head.
She took two big bites of her salad, with a little sway to her shoulders as she squints her eyes at you with intent before answering.
“Mmm, I don’t wanna tell you,” Jimin teases with a giggle.
“Okay,” you copied her expression with fake enthusiasm.
“Okay, I’m gonna tell you!” she squeals like a pig, “wait–” she gestures her pointer finger and pauses to gulp some water from her pink as hell hydro flask.
After she was done drinking, Jimin puts the lid back on her metal water bottle and pushes her unfinished food to lean her elbow on the table, and rests her chin on her palm, looking at you with an unpleasant and obnoxious smile on her lips.
“I just heard this from everyone, don’t get mad…” she starts, “apparently, you sleep around with our managers, yes multiple of them, that’s why they called you back after just two days.”
The abrasiveness on her tone sounded so odious and horrible that it made you make a sour expression on your face. You dropped the half-eaten burger on the paper wrapping and made you lose your appetite completely.
Jimin’s face lit up when she successfully agitated you.
“That is not true!” you bellowed, hitting the table with your fist. Her face shook in surprise and then she tried to hide her laughter with a purse on her lips.
“Oh, of course. It’s not,” she gave you a wink and then leaves you there frozen, utterly stunned, dazed, confused… FLABBERGASTED!
You are shaking!
You are shaking with anger and rage, your skin is buzzing with disgust that someone would make up some bullshit like that. Not, in any event, taking into account that those things they were making up would destroy reputations as well as might ruin lives.
And then your shoulders fell. They just fell on your body because you know you can’t do anything about that malicious gossip. Because the more you deny something, the more they will believe the opposite. So you inhaled deeply and then exhaled as loud as your shivering voice could let you, gathering all the unfinished food and even Jimin’s, because ~CL.A.Y.GO~, put everything in the bin and then washed your hands.
You are not going to cry! You are not going to break-down over dumb office gossip that isn't real. Yes, that’s what it is, just foolish and stupid dumbfuckery from a mornic as hell blabbermouth!
Whoever made up that fucked up story, you hope they develop warts in and around their mouth and on their tongue because they deserve that for having such a foul, baseless account about you.
As you were about to pull up your chair that was neatly tucked under your desk, you felt a tap on your shoulder. You look behind and it was Taeyong. So you smiled to hide your previous stress. You are sure he already heard these rumors, you don’t need to let him know you’re affected by the ugly tattles around the office.
“Hey, dude,” Taeyong greets with a smile, holding a mountain of folder files.
“Hey, dude,” you grin up at Taeyong as you look between him and the folders on his arms.
“Mr. Lee asked me to tell you to sign these documents?” He dropped everything on your table with a loud thump.
“Oh, sure. What are these about?” you grab one to open and you read the first line with “Project Approval”.
“Oh, you know, Approvals for the upcoming project. Meeting times, team groupings, distributions of topics, you know, the yoosh,” Taeyong chuckles a bit while scratching the back of his head. A sign of nervousness, you notice. Maybe he’s just stressed from all the shit Mr. Lee is making him do.
“Oh yeah, of course!” You gave him a soothing smile, assuring him you’re going to sign all of it. So you grab your dojang stamp to start. You and Taeyong are always picked by the managers to lead the groups with every project so you always sign documents like these monthly.
As you were busying yourself with stamping your name seal on each approval, the loud voice of your boss suddenly reverberated around the office. You look towards them and holy fuc—
“Everyone, I need your attention. I know you just had your lunch, feeling a little dozy and all, but we have visitors!”
Everyone who was lounging around, some sloppily and sleepily sat on their chairs all stood, including Taeyong who previously sat on your desk as he watched you stamp your seal on the documents.
In the middle of a big entourage, there stands an older man who you recognize as your current CEO, President Kim, and… THE MAN IN YOUR DREAM???!!!
“Ooof, Mr. Lee is not here for this ambush visit,” Taeyong whispered while sucking air through his gritted teeth.
“Sir?” your boss beckons with his hand for the CEO to speak. President Kim then taps and squeezes your supervisor’s forearm in acknowledgment.
The affability in the elderly person's face gets highlighted by the manner in which he grinned before speaking to everyone around him.
"I trust all of you had an incredible lunch, the food at the cafeteria is exceptional today," the old Kim trills happily and he got a chorus of similarly energetic reactions from everybody.
Yet not from you since you are simply stunned that the man alongside him, his son, is unusually, madly, grimly like the person in your dream. Were you dreaming again, or is this a nightmare? You tried digging your fingernails on the skin of your left pointer finger and slowly felt your claws breaking your skin a bit.
His eyes are filtering the little group in front of him and he did a second take before landing his gaze at you. His eyes had a little jolt to them that you never saw since you are so out of it.
You need to quit gouging your nails, you've got to stop or you'll bleed. And He smiled, oh GOD he smiled at you. And just like that, he’s not looking anymore. Why is he suddenly not looking?
You need to know why he smiled like that and on the off chance that he truly was the man in your dream, is this real and why can’t you stop poking yourself with your nails?
And there it was, the initial sting. You at long last halted because you finally bled. You turn your palms up and there it was four ruby crescents within your pointer finger. Fuck, that's gotta hurt later when you clean it.
"...Anyway, I am welcoming everybody to come and go along with us tomorrow evening for supper so I can formally introduce my son, your soon-to-be new President, Minseok."
After a couple of more words and trades of customs, they at long last left.
You ran for the bathroom once more, putting your finger under the faucet, and immediately water spouted out after the sensor detected movement.
The water was cold, fortunately so it wasn't that terrible when you washed off the cuts your fingernails left on your skin.
The remainder of the day was a haze, truly. Except for that hot couple of moments when Taeyong was torturing you on through the company instant messaging app about your little exchange of looks with dear Mr. Kim Minseok. He saw everything, even saw how your hand was shaking as you squeeze yourself yet he never realized you made yourself actually bleed. He was asking you when was the wedding day and the number of kids the both of you will produce, sending you relentless prodding emojis.
God, he's nice, yet he can be irritating when he needs to!
You mull over whether to tell Taeyong regarding your weird dreams, yet considering his teasing, nah. Not a freaking possibility!

﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎﹎
You were awoken by the ear-splitting sound of your ringtone right into your right ear. You fell asleep instantly last night, forgetting to put your phone on your bedside table.
Who the fuck is calling you at this hour? Since your suspension you have been sleeping late, ergo you wake up late.
Not looking whoever the hell is calling, “Hello,” you answered groggily.
“I need you to come to the office.”
You shoot right up. Eyes suddenly the size of plates wide.
That was your manager. No, not your immediate boss, but the department manager, Mr. Lee. He never, ever calls you…
Well he called you once last year, to ask you to pick up his three ugly pugs from the groomers because apparently everyone in his household was too busy to do so. He did give you a crisp ₩50,000 that day, to silence you about running him a personal errand, which is prohibited in your company.
You’re so used to doing things for everyone because before there were newbies, before Taeyong, you were once the “Errand Girl”. When it was Taeyong’s turn to be the errand boy when he started, you felt bad for him and you helped him. That’s how you became good friends.
“Are you there? Did you hear me?” your Manager slightly raised his voice.
You shook your head to fully wake yourself at once, “Yes, sir. I’m sorry, I just woke up,” you scramble to your feet and grab your bath towel.
“Be there on time,” he said before abruptly ending the call.
—
It’s still too early, considering your manager called you an hour and a half before the actual work time, EVERYONE seems to be here already, even the usually tardy people are around, scrambling to their feet like crazy as if a disaster is about to happen. A lot of your coworkers come in literally five minutes before nine and it’s not even eight-forty-five and here they are.
You made a beeline to your desk, making sure to dodge your busy coworkers when nobody even noticed your presence. The moment you put your purse down the table, you and Taeyong made eye contact. ( your tables are parallel to each other)
“What’s happening?”
“What are you doing here?”
The both of you exclaimed at the same time and then laughed immediately right after.
“I’ll go first,” Taeyong started with a giggle, “apparently our CEO will have an early retirement and wants his son to take over asap. So the old man is gonna show his son around the whole company today,” he said as he placed down his phone on his table.
You see that he was just messing around with his mobile phone with just the right amount of paper stack he does every day. He is pretty efficient at his job, he makes sure to finish the right workload so that he will never have backlogs or bring home any work with him. (unless it’s new season projects, taking home work can’t be helped)
“I see,” you nod your head up and down in understanding.
Your coworkers are pacing around the office to make their workspace look busy, adding unnecessary papers and old logs from previous weeks ago. Pffft, wouldn’t that only show the company owners that their employees are lazy? That they don’t do their work???
“So what are you doing here?” he asked again, this time standing from his chair to hand you the paper bag of pastry he bought. Obviously wanting to share the food with you.
“Mr. Lee called me earlier this morning, asking me to come in,” you simply reply.
Thankfully he doesn’t have coffee on his table yet, so you hand him one of the cups you were holding. Taeyong’s eyes lit up seeing the written order of his favorite drink on the paper cup.
“Hey, guys listen up!”
The loud voice of your immediate boss suddenly pierces through the slight buzz around the office. Took a minute before everyone settled to listen.
“Mr. Lee is going to say a few words.”
He and Mr. Lee are standing above the few steps leading up to their respective private offices. You, Taeyong, and the rest of the people in your department are frozen waiting for whatever the hell the department head is about to say.
“Floor is yours, Sir…” your immediate boss motions for Mr. Lee to start.
“So,” Mr. Lee started, paused to clear his throat, “you all already know that we will be having a new CEO soon. Kim Sajangnim called for a board meeting two weeks ago to announce that.” he continues.
Taeyong suddenly nudged you and when you looked at him, he discreetly handed you half of the blueberry muffin he gave you just a few minutes ago.
You smile a bit as you take the snack from him and Taeyong smiles back and takes a sip of the coffee you bought for him.
“Kim Sajangnim wanted to spend time with his new wife. That’s why the early retirement,” Mr. Lee had his left hand over the right side of his mouth pretending to whisper with a weird and petty expression on his face.
How lucky are you to land a job in an environment like this? You almost rolled your eyes but stopped yourself from doing so. You just got back from work, you don’t want to be on his bad side again. He’s not even looking at you, but someone might be and tell on you. You don’t know who the suck-ups are among your colleagues, you can’t trust anyone.
Everyone whispers among themselves. Taeyong nudged you again and he gave you a knowing reaction and you slightly shrug your shoulders as a reply.
“Anyway, be on your best today. I don’t exactly know what time they will visit, but our department needs to look good. Okay, team?” Mr. Lee said.
After a chorus of ‘Yes, Sir’ from everyone, your boss, Mr. Lee, and two more managers retreated to the meeting room.
You had a brief talk with all the managers before Lunch telling you investigation is still ongoing regarding the incident last week. They also said they won’t be telling the higher office about it just yet, not until the investigation is complete.
That gave you a sense of relief for now and you dare not inquire anymore when they seem to neglect to answer some of your questions. Kind of weird, but you ignored it, the important thing right now is you’re back at work.
Some of your coworkers seem to quiet down every time they catch you around, some whispering after giving you a slight peep as they talk among themselves.
Taeyong told you to ignore them, reminding you that it has been a slow few months and everyone is just bored so they gossip about you.
The last big office scandal was Wonseok’s cheating chronicle three months ago. He and his wife made a huge commotion in the building’s lobby when she found out he was cheating on her with your now resigned coworker, Mina, and a few more other women. You don’t like gossip and scandals but that week was very interesting, you can’t help but listen when your coworkers babble to you and Taeyong about it.
Other than that, the day was kind of okay.
To everyone's (not you and Taeyong, duh) disappointment, the scheduled visit from the CEO and his heir didn’t happen. It is a pretty big company with a lot of different departments, you can’t squeeze a visit in just one whole day.
You and Taeyong decided to celebrate your comeback over dinner and a quick drink at the samgyupsal place just a block away from work. You’re laughing about how unsatisfied everyone when Mr. CEO and son were a no-show. You both hate how everyone’s a fake, some a little more than others. They would go to lengths just to make it seem like they’re very, very useful for the company.
You’re happy you found your mutual with Taeyong. You’re both just neutral about office stuff.
You both had a bottle each of soju tonight and you know you’re gonna sleep well.

This should be a suspension countdown.
But I am suddenly NOT suspended anymore.
Mr. Lee said he needs me to be in the office.
(he needs to look good in front of the new CEO. Typical.)
Yeah, new CEO!!! A young one.
The old man’s only son.
YAY! :-|
